However, greater number of interested students has forced the" school to raise its standards. What once was a minimal cumulative grade point of 2.0 requirement average became a 2.5 in 1975 and 2.8 this year. this fall. ”1 based my future on the requirements existing when I entered college. Now, in two years, I’m on the borderline. I have a 2.7S and if I don’t get in. I’ve wasted all this time.” Licata recognizes the steady flow of students into the management field. “There seems to be an influx of students from other departments into the Management Department,” he said. “Where do all the pre-meds go that can’t cut it? They fill up the Management Department!” Sanford Lottor, assistant dean of the School of Management, said, “Many students feel it will be easier to get a job if he specializes in a field. The School offers this Management of specialization." there year, Last were approximately 1200 applicants to the undergraduate department. Of these, 600 were accepted and 450 enrolled. This year, however, Down the tirain This rise would have been more if not for in the change admissions majors. With a relatively healthy job market for people who hold degrees in management, more and more students here are seeking entrance into the School of Management. Class sizes have increased over the past few years in most of the prerequisite courses and competition for management has been steadily degrees increasing. The School of Management (formerly the School of Business Administration) once had easy entrance relatively *• worries some Dismissal of faculty protested by AAUP by Pat Quinlivan City Editor Opposition to the cutbacks scheduled for the State University system, previously generated only in New York,-has now come from a national source. The American Association of University Professors (AAUP), based in Washington, D.C., sent a memorandum to the Chancellor of the. State University of New York, Ernest L. Boyer, protesting the lack of adequate notice to faculty members whose positions are being terminated, and urging that corrective action be taken. Associate General Secretary of the AAUP, Jordan E. Kurland, who authored the communication to Boyer, cited the Association’s 1940 “Statement of Principles on Academic Freedom and Tenure,” which held that faculty members with two or more years of service should receive at least 12 months notice of non-retention. Kurland’s letter stated, in part, “A large and increasing number of individual faculty members at colleges and universities that comprise the State University of New York have been registering complaints with the American Association of University Professors after they were informed by administrative officers that their positions were being terminated.” These complaints, said Kurland, came from both tenured and non-tenured but multi-year faculty, whose administrations wished to break their contracts before they had^xpired. requirement) but only 549 were accepted. “We’re hoping that only 350 of these will enroll,” said Judith Dingeldey, Director of Undergraduate Programs for the School of Management. Dingeldey said the decrease from last year was a result of budget cuts and the limited number of instructors. Too much Lottor said too many students enrolled last year. “It’s important to the School to offer the highest quality program we possibly can,” he said. “In order to do this we had to cut back on the number of students accepted.” He said that last year, the Department had one of the largest faculty/student ratios in the University, which put the school of its danger in accreditation by the Americair Assembly of Collegeate Schools of Business. Another problem arises for students who are accepted by the school and then wish to go on to accounting. “Up until this fall, anyone could get into accounting,’!, said Loiter. “Starting this fall, we are limiting number of accounting the students because of limited resources. We just can’t house all who want the students accounting.” The School offers a multitude of degree options, including combined graduate degrees and and combined graduate undergraduate degrees.

The cause of the blaze is as yet unknown, although fireman and University personnel have hypothesized that faulty electrical equipment could be responsible. Educational Communications Director Gerald O'Grady estimated that $344,000 in audio-visual and tv equipment. was either badly damaged or destroyed along the with $19,S00Q in materials and supplies, such as Wdeo tapes. It is believed that Foster Hall sustained an additional $100,000 or more in structural damage due to heavy smoke and intense hety. The wing of Foster that was affected by the fire is presently closed, ifc University officials are anxious to keep weight off the ceiling until the actual extent of the damage is determined. O'Grady does not think any of the equipment was insured. However, there was talk in Hayes Hall Monday of submitting an emergency request for funds in the Supplemental Budget to replace some of the important production and playback equipment. O'Grady said $50,000 will be needed to reestablish minimal operating ability. In any case, he cannot foresee restoring a production studio comparable to the one that was destroyed for at least a year. - - - • - - — - - - - - Clubs 38 Academic Chibs $11,896 12 Hobby Clubs $4,350 11 InternationalClubs $6, 625 6 Special Interest Chibs $6,036 (Debate, Vets, Gay Lib) *Already passed by Assembly — - - - �Summer session Effectiveness discussed Summer Session Registration will not be processed unless your Account is clear in the Office of Student Accounts, Hayes A, Room 1. Office Committee seeks to upgrade faculty teaching quality here Ex-prisoner Sostre will speak in Haas hours are 8:45 a.m.-4 p.m., Monday through Friday. by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor “What makes a good teacher?” was the question of the day last Saturday as a group of University instructors gathered at the Ellicott Complex to discuss a subject that concerns us all, teaching effectiveness. Physics professor Jonathan Reichert heads the Senate Committee on Teaching Faculty Effectiveness, composed of six faculty and one student, which organized the' one-day conference. The day’s discussion centered on what the role of the committee should be over the next few years, and whether or not the teaching effectiveness at this or can be influenced for University needs to be the better. Donald Brown of the Center of ..Research on Learning and Teaching at the University of Michigan also joined in the discussion. - - Reinvent the wheel One professor suggested that the committee could provide a “pool of resources” for instructors interested in improving their teaching. He said teachers often share experiences and teaching methods in informal discussion, but usually each new instructor has to “reinvent the wheel” and learn effective teaching methods on his own, by trial and error. Brown pointed out that teaching effectiveness is often difficult to measure, if not impossible, and university administrations and departments often other publications and stress grants, accomplishments. Several of the participants believe that a person who is known for being an outstanding instructor too often aquires a reputation for being negligent in resefach and publications. Brown agreed that the “reqards to keep you going” for trying to improve your teaching ability are fewer than for the professor who delves into reserach. “Change can happen, but I suspect its a , Cluade Welch noted that two considerations work against a teacher seeking to improve his teaching: shame and guilt. Looking at Student Course And Teacher Evaluation (SCATE) results can be a humbling experience for a teacher, he said. If you thought you were coming across to students one way, you sometimes find you were making quite a different impression. Guilt comes from admitting or fearing that you may not be as knowledgeable in your teaching area as you should be, he said. Three possible methods for improving teaching that came out "of the discussion were watching videotapes of yourself teaching, talking to peers, and talking to students. Can’t fake it Several participants added that an obvious interest and enthusiasm for the subject being taught is imp:>>tint to a teacher’s effectiveness. “Students arc extremely sensitive to fraudulent behavior in the classroom,” one instructor said. If a teacher is feigning interest in the topic and is in reality unenthusiastic about what he is doing, students will spot the insincerity quickly, he said. In the discussion’s afternoon session, Brown expounded on the emotional state of the students. “The process involves human beings in a very crucial of development,” he said. But while the of the “young adults” being taught must be kept in mind, “the class has to be centered around the material,” and not be “course in adjustment.” The students should be presented with material in a way that is not “intellectually or emotionally threatening,” making them “feel stupid” or “unable to deal” with the classroom situation, he said. “Peers are in better shape to deal with [their emotional problems] than you are,” he said. stage maturing process Martin Sostre, a Black-Puerto Rican activist from Buffalo who was recently freed from prison, will be returning here Friday, April 30 fot the first time since his release. Sostre will be speaking in Norton Hall’s Haas Lounge at 1 p.m. on Saturday, May 1. The event, sponsored by Student Association Speaker’s Bureau, is free and tickets are not necessary. Sostre has two other speaking engagements in Buffalo during his visit. At 7 p.m. on April 30, Sostre will speak at the Lincoln Memorial Church, at Main Street and Mastcn Avenue, followed by a cultural program of poetry and dance. He will also appear at the Porter library, Porter and Niagara Streets, on Sunday, May 2, at 3 p.m., followed by a program of poetry and music. Sostre first attained prominence within the Buffalo community when he opened the Afro-Asian Bookstore on Jefferson Avenue, which sold anti-war literature, revolutionary works, and books on black history. In 1967 the East Side community erupted in disorders, and local officials blamed Sostre and his bookstore for much Of what had happened. Jail house lawyer Sostre was arrested shortly afterward for allegedly selling heroin to a police undercover agent in the bookstore. He was convicted and sentenced to up to 41 years in prison. The informer, who was the chief prosecution witness, admitted in 1973 that he had lied about the heroin sale Once in prison, Sistre gained a national reputation as a “jailhousc lawyer." In Sostre vs. Rockefeller, the court found that Sostre had unfairly been placed in solitary confinement, and awarded him damages from the state. The court also ruled that certain procedures must be carried out before a prisoner can be placed in solitary, and that he has certain rights while there. In Sostre vs. Otis, the court again ruled in Sostre’s favor, in this case restricting censorship of prisoners’ reading materials. Sostre was released from prison in February after being pardoned Carey in December. His release had been sought by a Governor by number of individuals and groups including Amnesty International. Sostre is currently working in the office of Assemblywoman Marie Runyon of New York City, dealing mostly with tenants’ problems. He has announced plans to reopen his bookstore in Buffalo, but there is no firm timetable for this yet. Groups co-sponsoring Sostre’s visit to Buffalo include the Buffalo Call Committee, the Buffalo Workers Committee, the Puerto Rican Coalition, the Committee to Clear Kenneth Johnson, and the Committee for Non-Intervention in Chile.

RESENTS: April 1976 Page two The Spectrum Wednesday, 28 . . �Off and running for the best off-campus houses by Jmy Rosoff Spectrum Staff Writer now The off-campus housing market is not its busiest in competivite stage nearly as crowded as it seems. There are currently about 2 or 3 thousand' off campus homes available to about 4 or 5 thousand students who look for a (dace to live each year, according to estimates by Legal Aid Clinic staff member Paul Sharratt. The clinic’s off-campus Housing Office conducted a telephone survey earlier this semester of students already living off-campus. A computer bank with information on approximately 600 apartments has been compiled. Sharratt said roughly 120 apartments already rented have been withdrawn from the computer’s data bank. The bulletin board located in the Off-Campus Housing Office on the third floor of Norton Hall is reported to be responsible for appro ximatly 100 successful rentings. Richman said many students decide not to return to residence halls because dorm life can be psychologically wearing, and because there is no sense of community. - - On the other hand, the most often cited drawbacks to living off-campus were inconvenience and isolation. Sharratt did not believe the recent increase in dorm rents would prompt landlords to increase their rents. But Cliff Wilson, Assistant Director of Housing, said that dorm rent increases would lead to an increase in off-campus rates. Moving off Many universities find themselves in the midst of on-campus housing shortages as part of a general student return to the dorms. But the situation here seems to be different. It is almost an unwritten law here that seniors not live on campus. Even great numbers of sophomores and juniors also make the move. Wilson simply attributed this phenomena to the “normal maturation” of students. The students that do move off “are ready for the responsibilities of off-campus life,” according to Wilson. They have many friends and have used the residence halls to make these contacts. Sharratt, conversely, sees a trend here toward people staying on campus rather than leaving, but added, “If dorm rates go up, who knows what will ahppen.” The Legal Aid Clinic’s major dealings with students concern* student-landlord problems. Richman indicated that, on the whole, relationships between tenant and landlord are good. He mentioned a letter from a landlord to the Clinic which expressed deep concern for students searching for off-campus housing. Richman believes the ideal way to control off-campus rents and conditions would be to establish a tenants union. He said an unsuccessful attempt to organize a tenants union was made two years ago by the Student Association. Wilson sees the University’s move to Amherst as a major problem because there are very few houses around Amherst that would be within the financial range of students.

Daniel Schorr, CBS News correspondant who is now under Congressional investigation for selling secret government papers to the Village Voice, will be speaking at the University on Friday, April 30.

Luce was one of the initial key people against the Vietnam War. He is currently head of the Assemblywoman International Amnesty Board. The seminar is co-sponsored with the Community Action Corps. The final event of the year, and the one that Cohen is most proud of, is a special salute to the Bicentennial, which will consist of a series of lectures on the Revolutionary Period by visiting scholars. A meaningful bicentennial Cohen labeled this series an “alternative to all the Bicentennial schlock.” He said that the Administration had not really initiated any serious program dedicated to the Bicentennial, and insisted that therefore, “students would have to take it upon to the make themselves Bicentennial meaningful.” The program will consist of four eminent scholars offering their perceptions of the Revolution. Invitations were sent to most of the high schools within the Buffalo community, because the Committee felt that the lectures would provide a history not usually offered in the high schools. Cohen conceded that he was taking a chance by offering this program, due to the general the unreceptiveness to Bicentennial, yet insisted that the program was worth the risk. “Just because businessmen are doing the wrong things in regard to the Bicentennial (for example, reel, white and blue toilet paper), why should we not attempt to do what we feel is right?” Away from escapism Cohen’s program this year has differed conspicuously from speakers’ programs in the past, lie has concentrated his focus on and politicians journalists primarily, thus avoiding the Lois Lane type of lectures that didn't make their expected quite Wednesday, Robby Cohen nostalgia appeal haunted Cohen’s and ever-after predecessor, Stan Morrow. Cohen claimed that this year tried to do “something different.” “A lot of Speakers’ Bureau he agencies throughout the country are entertainment-minded,” he said. “I’ve been trying to get away from that as much as possible.” His major concern was to get students concerned about social problems and away from escapism. He said that even with a limited budget, his priority was to hire people who had something to say, and then to consider if they would draw. He said that although he realized that not everyone shared his priorities, he felt this year’s program balanced last year’s. He thought speakers his most successful were the Presidential candidates and Ramsey Clark. Although he was satisfied with the program, he still wished that more money had been made available, and that students had responded with more force. “Students should sit down and think out what they’re doing,” he “There should be more ideology moving them.” said. 28 April 1976 .

His wife of several years recently flew the coop and his pet lion died in January, but for companionship, Brown need only dip into his ever-present briefcase to ring up a friend on his portable phone. Some people might consider Ken Brown eccentric. That is open to debate, but one thing is certain Ken Brown is mighty rich. So rich, in fact, that this year alone he will gross a cool $3.5 million to add to his already substantial fortune of $2 million in net assets. Often working 20-hour days and taking few vacations, Ken Brown is certainly different but one of the most different things about him is that he is only 31 years old and rich. “The fear of being a failure is what drives me,” Brown recently told Money magazine. “Money is just a way of keeping score.” Brown, who made most of his fortune by selling motorcycles and organizing cycle shows, is a member of one of America’s biggest growth industries: young millionaires. The number of young Americans under 35 years who put their worth in the seven-figure category jumped from 2,400 in 1962 to 14,500 in 1972 an astounding 500 percent increase according to James Smith, a Pennsylvania State University economist who studies patterns of wealth. Overall, there were 133,400 millionaires in this country in 1972, an increase of 144 percent in the previous decade. — — — - Greedy in outlook Sociologists who study people and the self-made money say young millionaires are mostly white Protestants who jumped from the middle class, loners by disposition and greedy in outlook. “They are the compulsive acquisators with outsized ambitions and capacities to work,” one executive recruiter told Money. “You have to be obsessed with money to make big money,” added a Boston sociologist who also studies wealth. Many of them made their fortunes in FINANCIAL such modem fields as computers, electronics and land development, financial experts say, pointing out that the old way to wealth, such as starting a major heavy industry like John D. Rockefeller or Henry Ford, is all but dead. Playing the stock market is still very much alive, however. While many of the young nouveau riche are self-starters like Brown, the son of a Chicago dentist who also dabbled in used cars, many of them have received their bucks through the lucky but time-honored method of inheritance. The young inheritors heirs and heiresses to fortunes with names like Rockefeller, Levi-Strauss and J.C. Penney appear to be a different breed of fat cat than those like Brown who hail from more humble backgrounds. Their problem is not acquiring money but rather giving it away. — — Giveaways In San Francisco, a young band of 16 heirs has for four years operated the Vanguard Foundation, a philanthropic institution which specializes in doling out funds to groups like the Black Panthers, radical newsletters, radio stations and ethnic self-help organizations in short, programs that are “too controversial or too risky to find funds at most other foundations,” as one Vanguard member puts it. In its first four years, the Vanguard Foundation has given away nearly $200,000. The average grant is only $2,000 and members of organizations who have received the grants say the foundation members question them closely about where the money is going. A Vanguard-type group called the Haymarket Foundation, started two years ago by baking heir George Pillsbury, operates from Cambridge, Mass, and rich kids in Los Angeles and Sante Fe, New Mexico have also expressed interest in forming groups similar to the Vanguard outfit, mainly as a way of dealing with the responsibility and guilt of having all that money in the first place. “I felt very uncomfortable when I first got my money,” Obie Benz, heir to a food company fortune and founder of Vanguard admitted to the Wall Street Journal Benz says rich young people all across the country are devising ways to spread around the wealth and create what they feel is a more equal society. He has been meeting for two years with about 20 other — - wealthy Americans between the ages of 21 and 35 who are also interested in albeit a different brand of philanthropy philanthropy than their parents are used to. “My father’s idea of charity is giving money to the Republicans,” quips one Vanguard member. — Money homing holes The irony of trying to change society with money made in the grand robber baron tradition is not lost on these young, rich philanthropists. “It’s hard to get rid of the money in a way that does more good than harm,” explains a daughter of Laurence Rockefeller. “One of the ways is to subsidize people who are trying to change the system and get rid of people like us.” Getting rid of one of the world’s largest fortunes has been a thorn in the sides of many of the 21 Rockefeller cousins, the great grandchildren of John D. himself. As ' For Elegance OfTradmonals ASSEMBLY WILL MEET TODAY City Stock Exchange on the corner of Broad and Wall Streets where many a potential millionaire makes or breaks his fortune.

Professor Raoul Naroll Hayes Hall 239 - — 4 Credit Hours. Can we find a moral order for all mankind through world wide studies of social problems? In this course, we try. We take five basic core values as given: 1) health, 2) pleasure, 3) science, 4) justice and 5) peace. We take 36 working measures of these five values. Most of these measures involve twelve basic social problems: 1) mental illness; 2) alcoholism; 3) suicide; 4) child abuse; 5) women in trouble; 6) teenagers in trouble; 7) old people in trouble; 8) divorce; 9) income sharing; 10) economic progress; 11) civil strife; and 12) war. We review hundreds of world-wide tests of theories about what increases or decreases these 36 measures. We look carefully at three general systems of cultural dynamics: 1) Social servomechanisms. 2) Natural selection arenas. 3) Accumulation processes. We sum up in two ways. First, we ask: “What sort of a world moral order is suggested by what we have already learned?” Last, we ask: “What further world wide studies do we need to do next?" Page six . The Spectrum .

Toler Special to The Spectrum (SASU) The SUNY Board of Trustees have cancelled a promised open meeting in Albany on April 28 and have substituted a meeting in Nebr York City with invited representatives on the 27th. At least three - Trustees feel that communication between themselves and the “University’s constituents” will be improved, as a result. However, Bob Kirkpatrick, President of the Student Association of the State University (SASU) and a student member of the Board of Trustees, refused to invite six student representatives to the New York City meeting, saying that the SASU representatives do not approve of the way in which the meeting was cancelled. Elizabeth L. Moore, who presides over the Boarji of Trustees, explained that to hold one meeting for 325,000 students, the “logistics were too complicated.” Trustee Gretchen Siegal elaborated further, stating that the Trustees voted to cancel the open meeting because, “We just felt it was going to be a yelling mass, and a crowd we would not be able to handle in a democratic way.” Wouldn’t be useful Siegel said the April 27 meeting would include discussion on ways of improving communications. She hopes there will be additional meetings during the remainder of this year, continuing into next year. Moore said that although the meeting was scheduled to discuss communications, “that doesn’t mean that a lot of concrete things won’t come up." She said students in Binghamton who met with James Kelly, Executive Vice Chancellor of SUNY in a rather hostile session may have hampered their call for an open meeting with the Trustees. “We (the trustees) want our meetings in a parliamentary form.” Trustee Darwin Wales, who was turned away in an attempt to meet with students in Binghamton last week, thinks that the original request by the students for four regional meetings, one in each of the University centers, would have been the best way to handle open meetings. However, he feels that the students should be more realistic in their demands and think towards the future, rather than discussing a budget which has already been passed by the legislature. “We have to talk about next year’s budget,” he said. “The budget which has been adopted is a fait acompli, there’s nothing that can be changed.” When asked if he thought there might be additional funds in the supplemental budget, Wales said that, “There won’t be enough money in that to put in your eye.” No concerted effort Moore reported that the Trustees have already started to work on next year’s budget with the division of the budget. Sounding k little annoyed by the students requests for the Trustees to more actively defend the University to the legislators and the Governor, Moore excalimad, “I don’t think the students or anyone else knows how much we’ve done. Nobody’s caused us to cut any single campus.” She refused to discuss any victories the Trustees won in the budget that may be unknown to the public. “It’s a very delicate situation,” and publicity could harm their chances of getting funds for next year’s budget, she said. Wales placed part of the blame on the drastic 1976-77 budget cuts on a lack of action by the students. “Students didn’t pay much attention until the budget was passed,” he said. “The student demonstration was timed too late.” Wales feels that if the students had acted earlier it might have helped restore some of the cuts. SASU Legislative Director Joyce Chubka was outraged at Wales’ accusation of student apathy. “This statement shows that the Trustees are completely out of touch with how hard the students and SASU worked to fight the budget cuts, starting with a Washington rally in November. As far as we are concerned, the Trustees never put forth a concerted effort to oppose the cuts.” Neither Wales or.Moore were concerned with the fact that students would not be attending the April 27th meeting. “I can’t help it if they don’t want to come,” said Moore.

On the plus side. Sub Board and Athletics received increases of $24,000 and $17,000 respectively, in the negative category, every one of the Special Interest Groups sustained cuts in their allocations, most notably $10,000 for NYPIRG, $12,000' for the Community Action Corps, and $10,000 for the Black Student Union. With no anticipated rise in the amount of mandatory stu,dent fee money, it appears the SA Finance Committee has been forced to do a little housecleaning within its organization in order to maintain some of the widely-used services at their present levels. Sub Board, for example, will have to duplicate a number of activities in the process of moving out to the Amherst Campus and this, despite skyrocketing expenses. Athletics, which has been pruned down to a skeleton program, must get more money this coming year to operate on an acceptable level. Yet disturbing is the fact that CAC and NYPIRG, organizations which have always received widespread student support for the social service and consumer action projects they have done, are being cutback by approximately one-third. We feel the Finance Committee could have been more lenient in recommneding budgets for these two groups and we suggest the Financial Assembly reconsider the $20,000 increase in the SA staff budget when it reviews the budgets today.

Mr. Cohen's perception of the office differed substantially from his predecessors, notably last year's chairman, Stan Morrow, who felt the size of the crowd was more important than the relevance of the speaker. Mr. Cohen, however, read the newspapers first and then chose his guests. The names of many of the speakers he brought to the University, such as Jimmy Carter, Morris Udall, I.F. Stone, and Daniel Schorr, have all made or commented on the news recently and their discussions were based on topics that were of far more interest and importance than old Superman shows. Entertainment has its place in a speaker's program as long as it doesn't become the overriding criterion for organizing the programs. Mr. Cohen's hope was that the majority of his speakers would give their audiences something to think about. And that should be the first concern in preparing a schedule of speakers for a University audience, when you think about it. Vol. 26, No. This letter is directed to all the pre-law students that fear that low LSAT scores will keep them out of law school. I was advised by pre-law advisor Jerome Fink that my low LSAT’s would make it difficult for me to get into law school even though I had a very high academic average. He suggested that I apply to Antioch Law School, University of Akron, University of Toledo, Nova University in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, Delaware Law School and South Texas College ofLaw. Luckily, I had a-little more faith in myself than Mr. Fink did. 1 was selected by the Political Science Washington Semester Program and have worked fot the past year for Congressman Charles Rangel and as a judicial intern at the Supreme Court, receiving full • academic credit from U.B. For those who suggest that working in Washington does not help you get into law school, I strongly disagree. Almost every intern who works on Capitol Hill receives a letter of recommendation from the congressional member they work for. Although Mr. Fink told me when I was in Buffalo that this probably would not help me, I beg to differ. I have already been accepted by the University of Pennsylvania Law School, the University at California at Davis Law School, U.B. Law School and I have been placed on Georgetown’s waiting list. If you really want to get into law school, don't let anyone, including our pre-law advisor, discourage you. Law school’s are interested in your experience Don’t give up! as well as your It is interesting to note that students at U.B. seem to have priorities which differ considerably from those who make decisions in Washington. About 100 students played the “Taxpayers Game” which was set up in Haas Lounge on April 22nd and 23rd. Each of the participants was given what the average taxpayer pays in taxes every year, $2000 (in not exactly negotiable currency), and asked to “spend" it as he or she saw fit. Seventy-five percent of these tax dollars were earmarked by students for human need programs, education, health care, transportation, pollution control, aid to poor, etc.; 15 percent for a tax rebate, and only 10 percent for the military. This contrasts significantly with current federal priorities where nearly half of our tax dollars are spent on the military. Our experience with the “taxpayers game” suggests that when U.B. students leave the campus and venture into the world of working (assuming they can find a job) and paying taxes, many will find themselves in the predicament of financing national priorities they disagree with or cannot conscience. Rather than acquiescing, I hope they put up a fight. Together we can and must reorder our national priorities. Our lives and the lives of our children depend on it. Walter Simpson WNY Peace Center/CAC Subsidizing the wealthy To the Editor. increasingly clear that it is the banks, not the needs of the people, that determine budget priorities. The State University system accounts for 17 percent of the budget, but has been forced to absorb 34 percent of the state’s budget cuts. The banks on the other hand are receiving record interest rates. The recent New York State budget has eliminated all State University Scholarships, (SUS), for graduate and professional students in the State University of New York (SUNY) system. Previously It is a salient feature of any democratic society there had been a provision that those graduate would year that one achieves on their ability and not on students earning less than $2000 a receive a tuition waiver. This scholarship cost the privilege. It was maintained that the SUNY system state $2.1 million and served 3000 students was built with the aim of making accessable a higher education to all those who are qualified, not merely statewide. to those who can afford it. This must be the object University schools at the State The professional at Buffalo have been especially hard hit. Here one of any public education system. Is this the case with half of the medical students and one third of the law the SUNY system? With the SUNY system, the state finds that it students are dependent upon this tuition scholarship. Several weeks ago a tuition increase was authorized has bitten off more than it can swallow. In an for the SUNY system. This coupled with the SUS attempt to shift the burden off its shoulders the cut means an effective tuition increase of $1400 in state has simultaneously been increasing tuition in the SUNY system and increasing direct state aid to the law school and $1600 in the medical school, for all those students earning less than $2000 a year! private colleges through the Bundy program. This Elimination Of the SUS makes a professional shift in policy signifies a complete abrogation of the education impossible for all but the most well to do principles of public education. What Is more people. For those that do not have the cash on hand, insidious is the utilization of the taxpayers money to there is not even enough student loan money subsidize the education of the wealthy. The working available to meet expenses. This tight money people of this state were sold on the State University situation is directly related to the state’s financial with the promise of a higher education for all the people. This promise we now see is a lie. We paid for crisis. There is a proverb, “Those that have, will have this plant, and we will be paying the debt on this yet more, and of those that have not, even that will plant for the rest of our lives, yet most of the people e taken from them.” While the state’s economic of the state will never be able to afford to utilize it. woes multiply the banks exact ever greater A government that uses taxpayers’ money to benefit concessions from state and local governments.

Class size has been demonstrated to be one very important variable in the humanist equation of education at SUNY Buffalo. An increased class size not only limits the Quantity of education per student (if such an inference is not yet too mechanistic), but the quality and indeed the philosophy of education. The thesis that students learn at least as much by collective interaction and student instruction as by faculty instruction, I feel is verifiable. It is the thought behind the oft-repeated but never defined slogan: Education is a social (and dare I add, a political) process. If a class whose form is inclusive of student leadership as well as faculty direction, and gives all a chance to instruct and learn, is faced with increased size (not' to mention reduced adjunct facilities, reduced library services, reduced G.A. and T.A. participation, etc.), the results will probably mean a reversion to auditorium-sized lectureships, little personal contact and no student participation on many levels. Many T.A.’s and faculty depend heavily upon the seminar model. This reversion, I suggest, would be in essence a reversion to ivory towers which neither students nor administration would care to abide. Hence one may see the manner in which class size may (perhaps will) affect the philosophy of education at this University. This will certainly undergraduate make and graduate applicants think twice before depositing their application fee in the provided envelope. The mayhem of administration policy (or non-policy as the case may be) towards educational quality and institutional progressiyism may not be apparent yet. One variable alone proves nothing, but indicates much, yet the long-term affects of said policy, will erupt on the University like a volcano in years to come. What alternatives are there? Well, a “workers control” adaptation to the University from industrial theory is one obvious answer to the acceptance and administration, or revolt against cutbacks. An economically viable model for University control of Univeristy monies, that can also satisfy the demands of the State University Construction Fund and its eternal bonds, has been proposed by one Michael Steven Levinson, ex-Colleges instructor. Educational philosophy is abundantly available from specialists and educators at this University, alike. The Only Mm or Shakeup may be that Ketter would have to go and Somit et al’s job revamped a bit. So, without going into too much detail, it is evident that such plans will probably not succeed nor be given fair hearing. There’s a Catch-22 ring to the whole affair, isn’t there? Fred T. Friedman G.A., Dept, of History As a reporter for this paper, I am sick, sick and tired of trying to get information from “out of town” administrators. Sick of “no comments” from people who’s decisions effect the very life of this University. Sick of faculty who won’t tell me what they know and then complain they don’t know what’s going on. People on this campus have a responsibility to keep students and faculty informed of the decision-making process over issues that ultimately affect the quality of education on this campus. I’m sick of struggling to tell people what’s going on. The old cliche still applies. Honesty is the best policy.

Your pet can; 1. be hit by a car. 2. get lost and wander hopelessly until he/she dies of starvation or is picked up by the pound. 3. bite someone. 4. be mistreated 5. pick up distemper, hepatitus, fleas, mites, etc 6. give someone a hassle trying to provide emergency housing for him or her, or in returning him/her to you. 7. have a disasterous love affair with the ugliest dog in town. 8. get pregnant and have a litter of unwanted pups that the SPCA will have to decompress for you. A leash could prevent all this. Give your dog a new leash on life. R.K. Barclay BARC Suicide not acceptable To the Editor: Emil Fackenheim, internationally-recognized philosopher, has defined an anti-Semite as “anyone who believes that the Jews theologian t>€ t)W and should be homeless.” The desire to destroy Israel is anti-Semitic. No matter how cleverly the UN delegates or Mr. “One Arab” (Wahad Arab!) word their phrases and arguments, they are saying that the Jew deserves less than any other; he deserves to be homeless. The problem of the Palestinian Arabs can be solved via mutual cooperation between Arabs and Jews. As long as accep mce of Arab demands is the equivalent of suicide however, the Arabs will receive no cooperation. Unlike many other peoples of the world, Jews do not enjoy Jewish funerals.

Isolated government because of brutal internationally repression, and crumbling economically despite massive United States aid, the Chilean military dictatorship is in trouble. Last December England broke off diplomatic relations after the Chilean government tortured an English citizen, Dr. Sheila Cassidy, who was accused of treating a wounded resistance leader. Italy has no Ambassador in Chile, nor does Mexico. England, Italy, West Germany, and the Scandanavian countries have cut off economic aid. Most European countries send no military aid. Chile is seen as an international outcast. Recently the United Nations, for the second year in a row, voted overwhelmingly to condemn Chile’s violation of human rights. A UN team, refused entry to Chile last July, nevertheless repared a report based on hundreds of interviews with Chilean exiles. The report documents “routine torture of Aid Two years after the coup of September 1973, Chile remains under a state-of-siege. A curfew is in effect, the press is censored, political parties are banned, and civil liberties suspended. The Chilean military itself has admitted causing 30,000 deaths since the coup. Church sources indicate that over 100,000 people have been imprisoned since the coup, for varying lengths of time. (Chile’s population is 10 million. Comparable statistics in the United States would be 660,000 dead and 2,200,000 imprisoned.) The United States government offers the main support to the military junta in Chile. On December 30, 1974, Congress cut off all military aid to the junta and limited economic aid to $25 million. However, the Executive Branch and the Pentagon have gotten around such restrictions, much as they did in Southeast Asia a few years earlier. Congressman Michael Harrington of Massachusetts documented this in a speech he gave in Congress January 26. He showed by Kyle Steenland Many important that in 1975 Chile received the largest Such abuses led the Senate in February amounts of both economic and military aid to pass the Kennedy amendment, which cut off the loopholes which had enabled of any country in Latin America. Chile received $91 million in economic aid, twice as much as any other Latin American country. Several hundred million more dollars in aid was provided indirectly, through loan guarantees. Military aid to Chile totalled $14 millionbetween January and September of 1975; $102 million more in military aid was scheduled as of September 30 of last year. the Ford administration to give Chile this preferential treatment. But the House watered down the amendment, and it is expected that the junta will receive massive aid from the United States in 1976. But such aid, despite it enormity, has not been enough to save the ruined Chilean economy. A comprehensive report —continued on page 12— Fiscal Year 77 More guns in Ford’s budget NEW YORK (LNS) Guns, not butter, is the message of the Ford Administration’s proposed federal budget for Fiscal Year 1, 1976 1977 (October September 30, 1977). It contains $12.9 billion increase a in military-related spending over the previous year, and a $7 billion decrease for human resources (education, health, food stamps) and physical resources (agriculture, natural resources, housing, environment). Although the Administration claims its request for national defense is $101.1 billion, the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF) says the proposed 1977 military budget is really $159.9 billion. The WILPF figures include the costs of military aid to foreign - - countries, military atomic energy activities, the Coast Guard and Selective Service System, as well as expenses due to past military programs, such as interest on war debts and on veterans’ benefits. None of these expenses are included under the budget’s “national defense” heading. Altogether military-related spending accounts for 55.9 percent of the Administration’s request (it was 53.2 percent in Fiscal Year 1976), whereas all domestic non-military programs comprised only 30.8 percent of the request (34.3 percent in 1976). The remaining portion of the proposed federal budget is for foreign affairs and general government expenses. The most expensive items are “strategic weapons systems” such as B-l bombers. Trident submarines and atomic cruise missiles. These three weapons systems, the most expensive ever conceived, are in their early stages of development and are currently costing very little compared to their guture production costs. The B-l bomber, for instance, only accounts for $1.6 billion on the proposed budget, but will cost billion $92 according to Administration sources (more likely over $100 billion) over a 30-year period. The Ford Administration’s projections for the “national defense” part of the military budget amounts to a 45 percent increase over the next four years. Although Ford’s budget shows a $7 billion cutback for domestic spending, when inflation factors are taken into consideration, the cutbacks amount to nearly $21 billion, according to the Nationwide Campaign to Stop the B-l Bomber. Some of the areas facing massive cutbacks are as follows: Health Ford is proposing changes in Medicare (aid to elderly or disabled) which will require all recipients to pay part of the medical expenses they receive. Under the proposal, it is projected that Medicare patients would pay $1.9 billion for medical costs, while receiving only $568 million for Medicare. The new requirements will all but eliminate 22 million people from the program. — In addition. Ford wants to eliminate federal Medicaid (aid to poor patients) and 15 other health programs entirely, with the federal government turning over a lesser amount to individual states to operate their own programs. Food and Nutrition Ford proposes to pare $900 million from the food stamp program despite the fact that more people than ever qualify under current standards. A proposed change in standards would eliminate five million of the 25 million recipients. Ford is proposing to cut another $600 million from 15 child nutrition programs which have a current budget of $2.9 billion. 1977 will be “only” 6.9 percent Taxes To raise money for the budget, workers will be hit with a 5 percent increase in social security taxes, a provision intended to for the compensate high unemployment rate which leaves fewer people paying social security. Meanwhile, Ford is proposing corporate tax writeoffs, and reduction of the corporate Education tax rate representing $13 billion Federal spending on education in lost tax revenues. will get cut back by $500 million Congress has opposed most of under the Ford proposal to the proposed cutbacks in $7.6 billion. Aid to higher domestic spending, but it is likely education faces the biggest cut to leave most of Ford’s military $400 million. budget intact.

The Spectrum . Page eleven �I Cril/6... V g ¥ • —continued from page 11— - published in the -Wew York Times last February detailed the economic disaster. Chile’s official inflation rate in 1974 was 360 percent; in 1975 it was 340 percent. The true inflation rate is probably more tiian 500 percent a year. Unemployment is officially 18 percent but more probably 20-25 percent. According to the report, industrial production dropped 24 percent in 1975, while the Gross National Product (GNP) dropped 10-12 percent. The foreign debt is a staggering $5 billion, with interest alone totalling nearly $750 million this year. Real wages of salaried employees have dropped a shocking 50 percent since 1970, and there has been an even more drastic decline compared to wage levels enjoyed in 1973 under AUende. In short, Chile is suffering from a depression worse than that of the 1930’s. Chile’s internal market system has collapsed. Major industries are either shut down or producing only part-time. Many people do not have enough money to buy needed food. Junta destabilized? The economic disaster has, predictably, led to political unrest. The poorer people the workers and the peasants in Chile suffer the brunt of the repression and strongly oppose the junta. The leftist parties went underground after the coup and have organized a growing resistance movement. Even some of those who supported the coup are now calling for changes. The Christian Democratic party, which supported the coup, is now sharply criticizing the junta. Christian Democratic leader Eduardo Frei, President of Chile from 1964-70 and defeated by Allende in 1970, has publicly come out against the junta. - - Thus, 1976 may see some big changes. The junta has had to purge other factions Weekend rough on track, tennis teams ' s .. It was a rocky weekend for the Bull track and tennis teams. Both journeyed to the state capital for SUNY Center meets, and both fell victim to powerful teams from the host school. In track, the Bulls scrambled to a second place finish, but trailed the Great Danes by 68 points when all the points were tallied. The final score was Albany 104, Buffalo 36, Binghamton 34, and Stony Brook 33. v The Bulls managed three first place performances courtesy of fldred Stephens, Walt Malady, and Ron McGraw. Malady took the shot put and grabbed seconds in both the hammer and discus. The bufly weight man has emerged as the Bulls’ top performer since sprinter jumper Stephens has been slowed by an injury. The injury to Stephens, a chronically sprained ankle, did not stop him from winning altogether at Albany, though. Stephens triumphed in the long jump with a leap of 22’5-3/4”. McGraw, who is primarily known for his work on the basketball court, was a surprise victor for Buffalo in the 440 yard run as the other Buffalo winner. On the tennis courts, things did not go nearly as well for Buffalo. Without the service of former captain Rich Abbott, the tennis Bulls finished last in the three team SUNY Center championship. Albany won the tennis tournament and Binghamton came in second. Stony Brook did not send a team. The tennis Bulls will try their luck tomorrow at Colgate and on Saturday, the track Bulls host the 24th annual UB Invitational. 20 ACRE FARM WITH SECLUDED WOODLAND MONROE COUNTY, W.

ERIE MEDICAL CENTER Buffalo, N.Y.(716)883-2213 �Commentary Toronto DA taking on NHL Editor’s note: The Toronto-Philadelphia series was one of the most brutal series in NHL history, involving players, fans and law enforcers. This is a commentary on the actions of the various parties involved. by Larry Amoros Spectrum Staff Writer Last week there was an incident in the National Hockey League playoffs that was of major importance to the sport of ice hockey. It was the arrest of three Philadelphia Flyers in Toronto for assault with a dangerous weapon, namely a hockey stick. Don Saleski, Mel Bridgman and Joe Watson were arraigned in a Toronto police station on varying counts of assault and assault with a weapon, on charges brought about by Ontario District Attorney Roy McMurtry. The arrests stemmed from an on-the-ice incident in the third playoff game between the Flyers and the Toronto Maple Leafs jn Toronto. Saleski was serving a penalty when many of the Leafs’ fans began spitting on him and throwing cans of beer at him for his rugged style of play. Saleski, in retaliation, leaned over the “protective” glass partition and began swinging his stick at the fans. His Flyer teammates quickly came to his rescue, and they, too, went after the fans. In the midst of the melee a rink security guard was struck on the shoulder with a hockey stick, but was not seriously hurt. DA morning The next McMurtry pressed charges and had the Philadelphia players arrested. End of factual incident, start of big controversy. Who the hell is Roy McMurtry to intercede in a National Hockey League playoff game and start arresting the participants? (Or should that be the visiting participants?) McMurtry feels that the game of hockey, Canada’s national pastime is in need of cleaning up, and he’s going to ride through the league’s arenas on his legal white horse and do the job himself. Ha, what a joke. He should be taking care of true legal activities in Ontario, not those he creates himself. Granted the game of hockey may indeed be a little more violent than it should be, but what qualifies McMurtry to make that judgement? The league is set up in such a way that it should be able to govern itself and handle its own problems. Dirty pool What motivates McMurtry to play court, police and league official is unknown to the public, and anyone’s guess stands a good chance of being right. A thought here is that the Ontario DA has his eyes gazing on some higher position in “the legal political circus” and is trying to make a name for himself. Indeed, his name has been splashed across the sports pages of every newspaper and magazine this side of the Atlantic Ocean. A truly ingenious publicity stunt, if in actuality, that’s what this is. Or is McMurtry really just a hardened Maple Leaf fan, tired of seeing the locals getting pumelled everytime they engage in fisticuffs? The Maple Leafs have, until this year, been dead last in penalty minutes in the league, and easy conquests in physical battles. So McMurtry may be trying to protect his beloved Leafs. Mind you, this is not the first time that McMurtry has “refereed.” Earlier this season he brought charges against Detroit’s Danny Maloney for clobbering the Leafs’ Brian Glennie in a fight. If Roy McMurtry is at all the hockey games in Toronto, then who is minding the store? Negative repercussions The results of McMurtry’s actions are yet to be seen, but the possibilities are endless. First, assuming that nothing comes of these charges (as most people think), then there will probably be.a lot less violence in games played in Toronto, but the Leafs can expect to cath hell on the road. Or, other DA’s will imitate McMurtry, and in time half the league will be in the slammer. Should players start being jailed with regularity for actions occuring in Toronto, it is not unreasonable to think that the NHL Players’ Association would boycott all games played in the Canadian city. While the Leaf players might enjoy the nights off, owner Harold Ballard’s pocketbook surely wouldn’t enjoy Fights liks the one above between Montreal's Peter Mahovlich and Gerry Hart of the Islanders (Hart at the time of the photo was playing for Detroit) have been the cause of increasing concern about violence the vacation. in the NHL. There are various issues which should be kept in mind. The first of which is that hockey is a violent game by nature, and it is foolish to think that it can be extensively. restructured Secondly, the style of play that the Flyers use is not only successful on the ice, but it also brings fans to the games. the financial sorespots like St. Louis and Kansas City. So if McMurtry feels that he can alter the style of play, then he will be bucking the entire NHL system which is, after all, a business. And finally, any changes that are going to be leveled are going to have to start within the organization in order to set a realistic precedent for future troubles. Whatever city the Flyers play in, they pack the house, even in Bowlers freed bp computer by David J. Rubin Sports Editor Computers have invaded Suburban Lanes on Niagara Falls Boulevard in Amherst, Instead of the usual paper and pencil, Suburban boast? a new computerized scoring mechanism known as the Rapid Score Automatic Scoring System. Bowlers now need only to touch a button and bowl, and their scores are computed electronically by this robot serf. Sururban Lanes Manager Jack Robins said the new system is a progressive step in the bowling business, and he expects that eventually all bowling establishments will have units similar to the Rapid Score system. For the bowler, Rapid Score makes life easy. The bowler merely presses one button every time he is ready to bowl a frame, and the way is then clear to shoot. Never again will he have to remember that a strike is worth ten plus the next two balls because Rapid Score" will remember for him. error be detected Robins says that despite this problem reaction by bowlers to Rapid Score has been good. He said, "Ninety percent of the bowlers enjoy using it. They don’t complain about the system. They like not being tied into the scoring table. It lets tham socialize more, gives them more of a chance to kibbitz.” Views differ But bowlers in Suburban’s two Monday Night Leagues differed from Robins in their view of the merits of Rapid Score. Most everyone felt that it makes too many mistakes, affects the price they pay to bowl, and has to be watched very carefully. Members of a team from the Delaware Park Memorial Chapel all agreed that Rapid Score is less than perfect. One member siad, “I think it stinks because it’s not infallible.” An error of a point or two could throw an entire match.” Another member added, “I haven’t heard anybody say anything good about it.” Bowlers pay The cost of this autmoated system is not small, and like most increased costs, is affecting the final consumer, the bowler. Prices per game have risen five cents, according to Robins. He explained, “Rapid Score hit us at a bad time economically. We had to increase the price of bowling of compensate for costs.” Robins estimated that the cost for installing Rapid Score into the 52 lanes at Suburban was about 200,000 dollars. Rapid Score is the brand name of one of three new automated bowling systems. It was produced by RCA, but Brunswick and AMF are also in the process of refining similar systems. Suburban is one of four bowling centers in Western New York that have already installed an automated system. Perhaps Rapid Score’s biggest shortcoming is that it has a tendency to make mistakes, mainly because the unit is still being researched and because it currently requires considerable maintenance. Although the mistakes can be corrected the procedure is. tedious, and only by inspection can an Niagara Hobby team members had similar reactions. One member of that team observed, “You can’t tell the marks. You don’t know how many marks you’re down, and it takes half an hour' to correct the score.” A teammate added, “1 don’t imagine they took a survey to find out if people wanted it or not.” A contingent from Ryan Homes was not quite as hostile toward Rapid Score as were other teams, but they did admit that it can be “a real headache” when it makes a mistake. They also pointed out, that, “it lets you drink more.” Robins explained that the reason for the machine’s tendency to err was due to the fact that “they haven’t gotten all the bugs out yet.” He added that there is a minority of people who say they like to keep score, but that there is little he can do to appease them. Despite the other adverse comments, Robins felt that Rapid Score has still been sell received by its users. He said, “People have left Suburban and then come back saying that they missed Rapid Score.”, The baseball Bulls won their home opener last week against Canisius by the score of 7-1. The hitting star of the game for Buffalo, third baseman John Kidd, who knocked in four runs and scored one of his own for Buffalo, is also this week's Athlete of the Week. Kidd's first inning single brought home the first Bull score, while his double in the seventh with bases full was good for three runs worth of insurance.

A fourth panelist, as yet unidentified, is expected to represent the Board of Education’s position on the issue. Sponsors are the Student Association Speaker’s Bureau, Tolstoy College, and the American Studies and Sociology Departments. The forum is free to all. The CCHR, in cooperation with the Buffalo Chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and a number of parents of Buffalo school children, have sued city and state officials to desegregate the public school system. The case was heard in Federal District Court in 1974 by Judge John T. Curtin, and the parties have been awaiting his decision since then. Earlier this month, Curtin promised to announce his verdict by April 30, and there is a good chance he will do so in timefor the discussion. The black rights federation, BUILD (Build Unity Independence Liberty Dignity) is a strong advocate of community control of public schools. By special arrangement with the city, the organization shares in running the BUILD Academy as a public elementary school. Price attacked a recently released board “integration plan” when talking with the conference sponsors. The proposal had been presented as an alternative to a more demanding set of recommendations previously presented by State Regents officials. “The board’s alternative plan, as applied to North-East Buffalo, so patently stimulates a pattern of re-segregation, 1 contend that it violates the Fourteenth Amendment rights of some of my constituents,” said Price.

No. 78 University of New York at Buffalo Friday, 23 April 1976 Present five demands Coalition meets with Ketter by Brett Kline Feature Editor Four members of the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks met for over one hour Wednesday with President Robert Ketter, after about 35 students had marched from the Union to Hayes Hall to demand such a meeting. questioned Anthony students had The Lorenzetti, Associate Vice-President for Student Affairs, about the cutbacks and the Coalition demands for an hour or so in the lobby of Hayes, before Ketter arrived in the building. The first Coalition action was to present Ketter with the petitions supporting the five demands which contained over 2800 signatures. Ketter told the Coalition he had received recommendations for all areas of the University except the health science unit, which includes all medical and health science related fields. By .today, the administration will have already printed and distributed 1400 copies of an unfinished report of the recommended cuts, too late for publication n Friday’s issue of The Spectrum. To be circulated This incomplete report will be circulated among student groups and administrative, faculty including those the University, throughout departments which have already been notified of faculty firings. These departments will be given time next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday to present any statements or statistics opposing the proposed firings. Work on the incomplete report was already in progress before Ketter met with the Coalition, but some Coalition members felt that they had pressured him somewhat into releasing it earlier than originally planned. The final report will be made available to the public by next Friday, possibly in the Reporter, according to Ketter. He said it will detail exact budgetary and faculty cuts. The Coalition representatives asked Ketter if all courses listed in the Class Schedule for Fall/76 will definitely still be offered in September. Students in some departments are wondering if they are registering for courses, which may not be offered. No definite answer Ketter could not guarantee that all courses would definitely be offered in September, according to one representative, but emphasized that tenured professors who are cut must be given one year’s notice of their retrenchment. It was not clear if Ketter was suggesting that the cutbacks will go into effect next fall the student continued. But he said the administration is reportedly seeking to establish the same one year’s notice system with untenured professors. The delegates asked Ketter if he would write another letter to the SUNY Board of Trustees, urging them to reopen to students a meeting now scheduled for April 29 in New York City. Ketter refused, saying he didn’t know the circumstances under which it was closed. One Coalition member remarked that Ketter did not seem willing to pressure the Trustees to any great length. Ketter was not available for comment because he flew to Albany immediately after the meeting to confer with the presidents of all SUNY University Centers and Colleges. In a somewhat candid statement to the students and to Albert Somit and Anthony Lorenzetti, also present at the meeting, Ketter said, referring to the Board of Trustees, “The State University is not a democracy it is benevolent despotism.” A few minutes later, he asserted that this University was no different than any other school that no University is a democracy. Ketter told the students that the best way lo put direct pressure on the Board is to speak with its two Buffalo representatives, Bill Hasset, owner of the Buffalo Statler Hilton, and Manley Fleischman, a — — Clark for reordering America’s priorities by Rob Cohen Contributing Editor “Let’s not defer the American dream; no, let’s believe in ourselves, become involved and be the masters rather than the victims of change.” Keynoting “change” as the magic formula for curing the widespread ills and inequities in American society, U.S. Senate candidate Ramsey Clarke addressed a receptive audience in Haas Lounge, Tuesday afternoon. Clark’s latest political plunge marks his second bid for a New York senate seat in two years, having lost a surprisingly close race to longstanding incumbant Jacob Javits in 1974. Thusfar he is the only Democratic candidate to officiaUy declare his intention of entering the September primary which determines the nomination. However, Congresswoman Bella Abzug is expected to enter the “ass” race shortly, and reliable rumor hash that former U.N. ambassador fighting Irishman Daniel Moynihan is now carefully his weighing political options e After serving in the Kennedy-Johnson Justice Department for eight years, first as assistant Attorney General and then Attorney General (1967-69), Clark went on to champion a plethora of controversial causes from the Berrigan brothers to protesting Eskimos in Alcatraz. Last year he and William Kunstler led the defense of Attica brothers Dacajewiah and Charlie Joe Pernasales. An outspoken liberal from a traditionally conservative state, Texas, Ramsey has an outstanding record as a civil libertarian and crusading public defender. Speaking in a slow precise manner with a trace of Texas twang, Clark expressed concern over the present state of America. Referring to — —continued on page 2— • —continued on page 2— SA replaces Ketter as defendant in Coop case by Steve Milligram Contributing Editor The Student Association (SA) was named defendent intervenor Wednesday in the lawsuit brought by record store owner Carl Cavage against the University and President Ketter over the Record Coop. Judge Joseph Ricotta also accepted a motion to dismiss one of the two sections of the suit. Cavage hopes to close down the Record Coop on the grounds that a public employee (Ketter) overstepped his authority, and that the Coop uses state facilities to unfairly compete with private enterprise. The section charging Ketter with misconduct in allowing the Coop to reopen was dismissed. Prosecuting Attorney Jim Sullivan said that Ricotta’s action will be appealed, but added. that it could cause problems for both sides since Ricotta gave no reason for his decision. Gaining co-defendent status was labeled a “victory” by Student Association (SA) President Steven Schwartz. “We can all witness, make motions, raise arguments, and appeal the decision if it goes against us,” Schwartz explained. Related suit remains The part of the suit remaining charges that under Article 7-A of the State Finance Law, any citizen has the right to bring suit state funds and/or properties are misappropriated and/or misapplied, according to Jim Kennedy of the State Attorney General’s office, who is defending the University. Cavage charges that under this law, the Coop is an illegal operation. Kennedy will now be joined by SA’s lawyer Dick lippes in the University and SA’s defense. Schwartz said SA has 20 days to answer Cavage’s original complaint in court, and that they will be doing so shortly. “Hopefully, we will now be able to have a quick trial and a quick decision,” he said. “Things look good.” Sullivan said Cavage’s will seek reversal of Judge Ricotta’s dismissal of the misconduct suit. “We have three options: we can appeal after a decision has been reached under Article 7-A; we can let it go, or we can appeal now,” he said. Sullivan added that they want to proceed with an appeal now, and will repeat the appeal later if this one is unsuccessful. if Trouble last summer Controversy arose over the Record Coop last fall when Vice President for Finance and Management Edward Doty ordered it to close following a complaint from Cavages. Ketter reversed Doty’s decision after several meetings were held between SA and Coop leaders and administration officials. Cavages complaint stemmed from the size to which the Record Coop had grown, totaling sales of over $200,000 annually. The compromise solution reached meetings with Ketter and SA representative called for a ceiling of $10,000 monthly, severely cutting back the stock and hours of the Coop. The Coop first opened in September, 1971 when Ketter established three guidelines for its operation. The first required that records be kept of gross receipts and net income; the second mandated that all net proceeds be subject to mandatory fee guidelines, and the third called for renewal of approval on a yearly basis. �Coalitibn....... Clark speech —continued from page I— ■i prominent Buffalo lawyer. The Coalition delegates said that Ketter would not issue any new statement to the Board members, but that Ketter gave the Coalition permission to quote from his recent telegram. The SUNY Board of Trustees will hold four open regional meetings during the upcoming fall semester. ~ - The Coalition further demanded that Ketter schedule an open forum between the UB Council and the entire student and faculty population. Ketter did not exclude the possibility of this forum, but insisted that he would prefere a meeting with a few members of the Council, as opposed to the entire group. He indicated that Student Association President Steve Schwartz should propose the open forum at the next Coucil meeting, to which he is the sole student representative. The next Council meeting is scheduled for May 10, so an open forum, if decided upon, would not occur until the fall semester. Asked for letter Schwartz said after the meeting, ‘Twill bring up this proposal at the next Council meeting.” The four Coalition members also asked Ketter to write a letter to The Spectrum, explaining his position on the cutbacks, and to address a formal answer to their three demands. His response to writing both letters was positive. All four students agreed they were “dissatisfied with the administration’s slowness in voicing concern for students.” Somit termed the meeting “a constructive disucssion, what you might call a full and frank exchange of views.” “The students understand the problem better i " i 4 it i * • and we understand their viewpoint better,” he continued. Steve Schwgrtz commented, “It was an informative meeting... I don’t know how productive it was.” • Before the meeting with Ketter, Coalition leaders had tried, with little apparent success, to organize a rally in the fountain area behind Norton Union. Few of those people around the fountain responded to the students, who, with bullhorns, urged them to join the march to Hayes Hall. Once there, the 30 to 40 students debated their next move while six plainclothed and uniformed security guards looked on. When they learned that Ketter was not available at that moment, the students demanded to see Lorenzetti. A few minutes later, a uniformed guard reported from the inner hallway, “Lorenzetti will come over, make yourselves at home.” When Lorenzetti did appear, the students immediately presented him with the petitions and asked if he personally would send a telegram to the Trustees. “The Board has its own perogatives about opening or closing its meeting and answering questions like these,” he replied, “but I completely understand the anxiety of students.” Under repeated questioning, Lorenzetti insisted that he knew nothing about the cuts made in Social Sciences or American Studies, and he could not explain how the Buffalo Evening News had received this information. Insisting further that he had no say in budget allocations, Lorenzetti said, “We have little or no control over the amount of money that comes into this University.” It “is a creature of the state.” I——####—####—**—#####*#**#—##******—*—1****—t BE PART OF THE FAMILY ij ANACONE'S INN I A HOME AWAY FROM HOME . ji 3178 Bailey Ave. jj (across from Capri Art Theatre) i; |!

NAME ADDRESS j MAJOR Page two The Spectrum Friday, 23 April 1976 . . . . — . agricultural subsidy programs which pay farmers billions of dollars per annum for not growing certain- crops, he said, “What kind of people can sit around knowing they can produce more food while watching millions worldwide starve.” He lamented over the State Senate’s failure to confirm Herman Schwartz as chairman of the newly reconstituted Commission of Corrections. Schwartz, a professor at the law school here, is one of the nation’s foremost defenders of prisoner rights. Clark called him a prophet and one of the most knowledgeable lawyers on the subject in the United States. “Apparently there are powerful forces at work in this state, actively undermining change,” he said. One New York Times legislative analyst indicated that the Schwartz’s unfavorable vote was solely motivated by politics The the Republicans, were beyond question. integrity and competence Senate notably leaders, were pressured by party reporter explained, majority leader Warren Anderson, to turn down Schwartz because they had not been displaying enough opposition to the initiatives of Democratic Governor Hugh Carey. - American ideals Recalling the ideals of the founding fathers and the high importance they placed on education, Clark denounced the country’s decreased commitment to public education. Benjamin Franklin wrote in Poor Richard’s Almanac, “There is only one thing more expensive than education and that’s ignorance.” Thomas Jefferson wished to be most fondly remembered for his founding of the University of Virginia and the epitaph on his gravestone mentions this action. Literacy, Clark maintained, is a precondition for power. Higher education used to be the pursuit of the aristocracy. Over the decades, he added, the universities have been gradually democratized but now there is a movement afoot to turn the clock back and deprive the masses of higher learning. The attacks on the City University of New York (CUNY) Clark said," are counterproductive and totally unwarranted. “Where do we get the idea that compulsory public education stops at high school?” Deploring contemporary educational techniques, Clark insisted that the operant conditioning of education must be broken down. Mentor Kennedy Clark touched on a popular and familiar issue when he spoke forcefully for fuller exploitation of solar energy. He referred to the late Robert Kennedy in the most glowing of terms. Clark, who served under Kennedy when the latter was attorney general, humbly admitted that he owes a large part of his success to the man. Clark believes that Kennedy’s dormant sense of justice was reawakened by the 1966 Mississippi Civil Rights hearings, causing him to become “one of the great moral forces of our time. Before this transformation of attitude, Kennedy was much narrower, he said. Clark adyocates unconditional amnesty for Vietnam War draft resisters and deserters. He considers Ford’s partial amnesty to be not only inadequate but .cruel. The privileged and wealthy were able to escape the draft through deferments or obtain non-combat positions, while the poor and powerless had no way out. Clark condemned State Bill S.l, a comprehensive compilation of federal law, as wholly inimical to freedom. “It contains more than 50 provisions which would perpetuate an authoritarian, police state.” Clark conceded the need for a jnodel federal criminal code but added that this freedom stifling product of the subversive ideas of Richard Nixon and John Mitchell has no place in American society. Clark favors a $30 billion reduction in the defense budget, a highly unpopular view in the current political climate. This money, he insisted, could be better spent on pressing social needs. “$60 billion could be easily collected by closing a handful of tax loopholes.” “The defense budget skyrockets without a whimper from the overwhelmingly Democratic Congress. Once heavily scrutinized by Pentagon watchdogs in Congress the military budget is rammed down the throats of the American people in the form of a $110 billion sacred cow.” Clark is deeply troubled about the ordering of America’s priorities, which he says lacks any moral fiber. His concern seems genuine, unlike the contrived and rehearsed moaning of many other political aspirants. His tone is academic, yet digestible to the man on the street. No media consultants and pollsters swarm around Clark. His style so informal and on the level that one Time magazine correspondent is describing Clark’s campaign against Javits in 1974 observed, “it looks like he isn’t even running.” The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the ZIP STATE I CITY I UNDERGRADUATE COLLEGE/UNIVERSITY —continued from page 1 academic year and on Friday only during the summer by The .Spectrum Student Periodical.

Their presence seems to move the entire department to keep up to date on current advances in the field, he said. Fisk was accused by Miles of using only one criteria in determining what programs get his support: namely, the amount of outside research grants the faculty receives. He charged that Fisk doesn’t consider the faculty’s teaching ability or demand by students. Both Fisk_and Reitan were unavailable for comment. There are presently 35 graduate students in the Biology division and 1200 undergraduate majors, the largest enrollment in the Natural Sciences and Mathematics Faculty. Because so many students going into health science related careers chose Biology as their major. Miles said there is already a 31.9 student to faculty ratio in the department, which is almost twice the University average. Miles claims the other departments would not be able to handle the overload of students- coming from Biology. by Jeff Edwards Spectrum Staff Writer Robert Fisk, Vice President for Academic Affairs, has recommended that the Biology graduate program here be discontinued, The Spectrum has learned. Biology Graduate Division Director Philip. Miles received notice two weeks ago from Paul H. Reitan, Provost of the Faculty of Natural Sciences and that Mathematics, Fisk had recommended admissions be suspended to the MA, MS and PhD in Biology, excluding Physiology. An additional recommendation that one faculty position be eliminated has been withdrawn. The Biology Division faculty is writing Fisk urging him not to go through with the proposed reductions. A group of concerned students are also circulating petitions endorsed by the Student Association and the Graduate Student Association, opposing the cuts in the division. Besides ending the graduate program. Miles said cutbacks facing the department, if enacted, would be “an absolute disaster to the undergraduate students at this University.” Without graduate students as teaching assistants (TA), he said, there would be no qualified instructors to teach laboratories. According to Miles, this would result in a great decrease in the number of laboratory sections offered. TA’s from the Cell and Molecular Division of Biology were used to teach regular Biology laboratories this year, but because their background is chemical, not biological, the switch was unsuccessful. THE TWO GREATESTMONSTUkS 1 OF OUR TIME- TOGETHER! programs Housing agrees to change in contract by Diane Gitiin Spectrum Staff Writer Among several changes in next that without the lawsuit, changes in the contract length wouldn’t have occurred. Summer and fall negotiations last year between vear’s Housing contract, students will no longer be bound to remain in their dormitory residences beyond one semestef. Students wishing to leave the dorms after one semester will be required to pay 55 percent of the total annual housing fee. In the past, residents have been required to remain for the full year. Associate Director of Housing, (IRC) President David Brownstein, Schwartz, Wilson and Wilson, described Clifford change as contract lawsuit, as a result of an Albany ruling which declared it contrary the an “experiment.” Its effects will be observed > and then the fiscal and public impact will be determined. Other changes in last year’s contract include omission of the collective liability clause, holding a dormitory floor responsible for by made an damages unidentifiable and perpetrator; the requirement that there be a 24-hour warning period, except in emergency situations, before a Housing employee may enter a dormitory room. What constitutes has been verbally agreed upon by University and Student Association (SA) lawyers. an emergency Responsibility for neglect The new contract also states that Housing may be held responsible dormitory for damages due to neglect and that a student has the right to sue th,e Housing office for breach of contract. SA President Steve Schwartz and Wilson disagree on the influences which brought about the Housing contract changes. Housing Director Madison Boyce over several contract terms were by Schwartz as fruitless. Schwartz said the lawsuit was policy. However, SUNY Schwartz pointed out that this decision was never put in writing, therefore not making it binding. Several students suspect that a number of dormitory residents have been billed on the basis of collective liability despite Housing officials’ verbal assurance that they wouldn’t enforce the clause. Wilson stated that although the collective liability clause was in this year’s contract, it wasn’t enforced. “The state was billed and not the students.” JAWS ' explained and President , Robert Ketter will hold Bureau PRESENTS- fri.

The court case lasted from December, 1975 to April, 1976. However, Schwartz maintains Fisk hearings for programs with planned major reductions April 26 to 28. jJni Wilson said the contract length was altered due to the Housing office’s concern. “We were aware that the students wanted this kind of arrangement,” he said. “It was a way to meet student needs while also being able to fulfill our own fiscal responsibilities to Albany.” Wilson is being compounded by uncertainty, according to Miles; nothing is definite.

But the proliferation of photocopying machines in recent yean has caused a conflict between publiahen, who hold the copyrights, and educaton, who like to copy material for classroom .. - use. Recently, representatives of both educaton and publiahen agreed on guidelines for making multiple copies to be used in school classrooms. The guidelines will be given to a congressional committee revising the copyright kws. Basically, the publishers agreed not to sue a prof for copyright infringement if the copy is short — approximately one article, one two-page excerpt, or one illustration from a work. An entire chapter may be reproduced for the teacher, but not in multiple copies for the class. The guidelines also limit the overall use to nine instances in one class term and do not permit copying the same material term after term. Only one copy per student may be made and only actual photocopying costs may be charged to the student. The guidelines are intended to prevent photocopying from being used as a substitute for purchasing a book, and yet allow students and faculty access to supplementary text material without straining their budgets. . . Anything for capitalism (CPS) If you’ve been wondering why you stay in school lately, Michigan Representative Elford Cederberg has the answer. Take a tip from Elford profits is the magic word. Profits, he said recently in the Congressional Record, “provides the dreams of better days and higher standards of living which motivate our youth to educate themselves.” And what does education do? It “provides the mechanism for even greater untilization of the tools of capitalization.” Increased efficiency and production will then lead to “more jobs and a greater surplus, above our consumption.” And now a sobering note from the College Placement Council: jobs for college grads will probably be at an all time low for the class of 1976.

Can we find a moral order for all mankind through world wide studies of social problems? In this course, we try. We take five basic core values as given: 1) health, 2) pleasure, 3) science, 4) justice and 5) peace. We take 36 working measures of these five values. Most of these measures involve twelve basic social problems: 1) mental illness; 2) alcoholism; 3) suicide; 4) child abuse; 5) women ip trouble; 6) teenagers in trouble; 7) old people in trouble; 8) divorce; 9) income sharing; 10) economic progress; 11) civil strife; and 12) war. We review hundreds of world wide tests of theories about what increases or decreases these 36 measures. We look carefully at three general systems of cultural dynamics: 1) Social seromechanisms. 2) Natural selection arenas. 3) Accumulation processes. We sum up in two ways. First, we ask: "What sort of a world moral order is suggested by what we have already learned?" \.ast, we ask: "What further world wide studies do we need to do next?"

When he arrived, the three allegedly jumped him, beat him in an elevator, and dragged him from the Center without identifying themselves as police. This occurred after Johnson learned the police were investigating him and had offered to meet with them voluntarily, according to the committee. Two- of Johnson’s co-workers at the Center, C. Ray Whitaker and Lumon Ross, were arrested trying to defend him. A jury them innocent of found obstruction of justice charges on January 28, partly because their trial showed a number of irregularities and errors by police in Johnson’s arrest. , Last December 3, Buffalo police arrested Kenneth Johnson in connection with a series of highly publicized rapes that took place in several downtown parking ramps. Johnson was subsequently indicted by a grand jury on two counts of first-degree rape, two counts of first-degree robbery, one count of first-degree sodomy, and one count of resisting arrest. The Committee to Clear Kenneth Johnson insist that Buffalo Police, under pressure from downtown merchants, arrested the wrong man. “The rapist is still at large,” the Committee warns. The rapes occurred Thanksgiving in several parking ramps in the vicinity of the Main Place Mall. With the help of the victims, police put together a composite sketch of the rapist. This sketch was then printed in area newspapers and shown on television. Ambush About a week later, a security General in Buffalo guard Hospital’s Community Health Center, where Johnson works, called police to report that an employee seemed to resemble the sketch of the rapist. According to the committee, three members of the police Street Crime Unit dressed as No resemblence Johnson was initially held in lieu of $50,000 bail, but was released when his family and friends posted $30,000. While he is currently free, he faces up to 126 years in prison if convicted of all charges. His trial is not expected to start until late August or early September. The committee insists that Johnson is innocent and has proof of his whereabouts at the time of the rapes.

Persistence and hard work has won SA the right to be named co-defender of the Record Coop along with the University in the lawsuit initiated by Buffalo record store owner Carl Cavage. Cavage wants more than anything to see the Coop shut down once and for all so, that his store across the street can prosper at the expense of student dollars. With SA lawyers representing the Coop, we have some assurance that this valuable, not-for-profit student service will receive a strong, carefully planned defense. And SA has promised to appeal in the event that the final decision goes against the Coop After battling with the University Housing Office for over a year, SA and the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) have apparently convinced Housing officials that a number of provisions in the contract gave, them an unfair advantage over dormitory residents. Under the terms of the new agreement, students who live in the dorms may leave after one semester without resorting to phony marriage licenses or special diets, as they have had to in the past. The contract also protects a student's right of privacy since Housing authorities will no longer be permitted to enter a room without prior warning If there were nothing more than the malice of a couple of students behind the recent anonymous attacks against me and my work at Oakstone Farm, I wouldn’t bother to respond. But there is a great deal more at stake, including a general misrepresentation of the academic enterprise, and the suffocation of academic freedom. To make that clear, there are some things I want to state about philosophy and its reception in the University community. If I’m silenced, have a look around for the totalitarians; they’re probably closer than you think, and by the time you-find them out, it may be too late. Almost 20 years ago, I began to have grave doubts about the human value of the highly technical approach to education I saw developing in the universities, and started to look for more humane alternatives. I turned from current empiricism to German phenomenology and Greek philosophy, especially Plato and Hegel. 1 was then at Stanford University, whose Philosophy Department Chairman, Patrick Suppes, told one of my advisors, “Hegel is not philosophy,” and wrote a negative opinion on my Hegel dissertation, resulting in the termination of my doctoral candidacy. But there were two catches: First, Suppes had never seen the dissertation; second, he controlled about two million dollars of research funds. Two million dollars can’t be wrong, although the president of Stanford did concede, after I had been forced to leave, that the action was “a regrettable error.” Stanford of course made the usual vague allegations about my character in its official coverup. But I think the basic motive behind Suppes’ actions was a widespread prejudice against Hegel, which asserts the Platonic origins of Hegelian thought and the totalitarian consequences. Marxism is sometimes involved, and we are dealing with ideological issues over which many intellectuals have lost their lives. The process starts with apparently mild academic defamation like this; “Hegel achieved the most miraculous He even accomplished the deduction things of the actual positions of the planets, thereby proving that no planet could be situated between Mars and Jupiter (unfortunately, it had escaped his notice that such a planet had been discovered Hegel’s fame was made a few months earlier) by those who prefer a quick initiation into the deeper secrets of this world to the laborious technicalities of science.” (Sir Karl Popper, The Open Society and its Enemies .) The general idea is that Hegel, following Plato, is a mystery-monger unworthy of serious study, and that we should turn to empirically responsible science for intellectual salvation (as many have done). Unfortunately for Popper, whose passion for empirical method does not go so far as reading the texts he abuses, Hegel actually writes no such thing; he tries instead to show that the empirically-known solar system will also reveal an intelligible ordering close to what we still know today as the Titius-Bode Law. The real issue is the controversy between rationalism and empiricism recently revived by the linguist, Noam Chomsky; and it has unexpected social and political results. We can get a glimpse of what they are by looking at the late Jacob Bronowski’s view of the matter. Like Popper, he achieved fame and fortune by belittling Hegel thus: “The society of scientists is simple because it has a directing purpose; to explore the truth.... (Scientists] did not set out to become moralists or revolutionaries. Napoleon did not find a scientist to elevate tyranny into a system; that was done by the philosopher Hegel. Hegel had written his university dissertation to prove philosophically ' ... It took much complaining, first, and persistence, second, to the get Housing and contract changed to secure co-defendant status in the Coop case. But it just goes to ... prove that students do have some recourse if ever they feel they are being given a raw deal.

Unhappily for Bronowski’s simple truths,... Bertrand Lord Russell wrote more of the same kind of thing (Authority and the Individual), and the public devoured it. But it is not only Popper, Bronowski, Russell, Suppes, and my courageous but anonymous critics who feel thus justified in dismissing what they fail to understand or even examine, and label “authoritarian.” As Chomsky suggests, it is a favorite manipulative trick of the technocrat; it first appears within the works of Plato, as a contest between Socrates the philosopher and his sophistic and technocratic opponents. There are numerous examples of the sophistic abuse and defamation of the philosopher. I don’t mean that I am Socrates, and have so far been subject only to academic banishment and personal abuse;-nobody has threatened me with death (yet). If Socrates himself appeared at UB today, he probably would get instant justice in a mob scene, while the local potentates looked on from afar with relief. Still, my detractors flatter me by finding certain Socratic characteristics: “Ask youself the simple question, but ask it more than once. Why would a 45-year-old graduate student seek to live with younger students, 20 years of age?” (Anonymous 2) “Scientists may have mistresses or read Karl Marx; some of them may even be homosexuals and read Plato. But in a world in which state and dogma seem always either to threaten or cajole, the body of scientists is trained to avoid and organized to resist every form of persuasion but the fact.” (Bronowski again, at his noblest.) Needless to say, I have run into the same difficulties in teaching Plato at UB as I ran into while studying Hegel at Stanford. “Plato is parlor games,” stated former Academic V.P. Bernard Gelbaum while “visiting” Oakstone Farm, and then dismissed me from the College B faculty in flagrant violation of the Policies of the Board of Trustees. Obviously, Messrs. Ketter and Somit approved. They have been busy covering up violation of my academic freedom and civil liberties ever since. They created the climate for my Detractor 2, who, to “clear up the air a bit,” asserted the complete lie that I teach or taught as part of my “Fellowship responsibilities.” All the teaching I have done at this University in the last five years has taken place despite the ■■University, and not with its support; and more than two years of administrative work were extorted from me as the price for my academic freedom. Messrs. Ketter and Somit are still working on the coverup. They’ve done a splendid job cultivating ground for the malicious. The reason the Ketter administration gives for putting philosophy at the bottom of the priority list is that it has little or no practical or social value. That’s true. It discourages manipulation. In fact, philosophy has the very impractical value, in the current mad power struggle, of insisting that truthfulness and integrity are worth something, and that there is more to life. Whoever still cares and understands the role of philosophy in the defense of academic freedom may well prefer the climate at Oakstone Farm to the climate at UB. But remember, it’s a lot of work to fight almost a century of prejudice and irresponsible abuse, especially when it’s sanctioned from the top. If you don’t give a hoot about intellectual honesty or academic freedom, the Oakstone Farm experience will not be the kind you’re expecting. Good luck anyway, but don’t take your hostilities out on me; I’m not in your ball park. planets ... _ �« ,ir% Our Weekly Reader Dave Dellinger, More Power Than We Know: The People's Movement Toward Democracy (Anchor Press/Doubleday, $3.95, 326 pp.) Dave Dellinger is a political activist; the sixties, even the early seventies, were politically activist times. Today it seems we are cloaked with indifference. There is an aura to those political times which breeds that feeling. In More Power Than I'Ve Know, Dave Dellinger says such feeling is simply the calm before the storm of people moving toward democracy. Dellinger's book is a subjective excursion into a not too many years ago spawned revolutionary causes. The Yippies, The Panther-21, the Chicago-7, the Weatherpeople, are given a great deal of space as Dellinger relates their skirmishes with government injustices. It is a subjective account, but one can still gather objective and empirical facts of government atrocity. Dellinger's account is enough to shock even a conservative like myself. What disturbs me is not the flap-jawing of activist types, nor the fact that branches of government can affect society-at-large by brutally wielding an unsound law, but what federal judge in the district both knowledgeable in the law and shrewd enough to handle such a prominent case." Dellinger believes the case's prosecuting attorney, in effect, conspired with Judge Hoffman during the process of jury selection and so justice system. The destroyed the adversary government's evidence, he proposes, was so miniscule that it was even unfair to hold the trial which ensued. (Dellinger fails to point out that a government prosecutor has the right, under law, to prosecute whomever he so wishes, regardless of how small the evidence may be.) But no matter: justice is Dellinger's section dealing with realm that by Randi Schnur Arts Editor The year is 1199, or thereabouts. The Crusades are long past, and Richard the Lionhearted, a rather over-enthusiastic conqueror who seems to believe that the perpetuation of his legend depends upon the slaughtering of everyone in sight, whether or not he can come up with a reason, has finally met up with the wrong end of an arrow himself. As there are no more causes left to fight for in the vicinity of Richard's camp, and since he is fed up with taking orders from other men anyway, Robin Hood informs Little John, his constant companion, that a 20-year absence from Sherwood Forest is quite enough. It is time to go home The decades have not been kind to the Merry Band, though. The old tree under which they lived has rotted, and although Will Scarlett and Friar Tuck are still around, their idealism has rotted as well the only poor they can afford to steel for are themselves. ("While I take confession, he takes the horses," the good friar laughs contentedly.) The Sheriff of Nottingham has grown mellow and wise wise enough, in fact, to set traps that work. - - Curse of the forest And Marian no longer exists. As Mother Janet, the abess of the local nunnery ("My confessions were the envy of the convent!"), she has worked hard to suppress all remnants of the old fighting spirit. Although an occasional, incongruous curse still escapes to remind her of the freedom of the forest, she has succeeded in forcing most memories of the long-ago lover who never even said goodbye out behond the convent's heavy walls. But the legend of Robin Hood is still alive, and there are dozens of awed followers running through the forest, looking for the old tree and awaiting their chance to defend it. In Robin and Marian, director Richard Lester takes an look at the life and death of a legend who has affectionately outlived his usefulness and the hopelessness of his struggle with that fact. The trio of apples which appears first and last in the film, aging from green immaturity to shrivelled petrification within the space of a single frame, is a somewhat paradoxical metaphor for both the obsolete hero art® the timeless ballads which esaggerated and immortalized his worth; while the songs and stories caught and froze Robin’s moment in history, solidifying the ideals he represented for all time, the heroism they celebrated became trapped in its own self-destructive compulsiveness, finally drying and crumbling under the weight of his over=invlated expectations. Boyish bravado ■ Robin's role demands a lot from its actor: he is an odd mixture of that cynicism Snd naivete, full of the kind of swashbuckling bravado its but presence, he senses death wherever compels him to challenge unable to realize that death must some day win thp fight. Contradictions abound, but their significance always eludes him; devoting the first half of his life to the blind defiance of authority, he spends its next 20 years in equally thoughtless obedience, condoning admitted atrocities because the madman who orders them is, after all, his friend and his king. Sean Connery is excellent at this sort of thing; just as in his wonderful The Man Who Would Be King (released only a irrepressible few months earlier), his worldliness is mixed with an idealism which dictates both his rise tp glory and his inescapable doom. John There is an excess of sentimentality flooding this forest Barry's music is often right out of Marlboro Country, and Audrey Hepburn's love-stricken Marian contrives an ending which, though perhaps inevitable, is certainly improbable. But its pervasive good humor and marvelously witty performances by such as Nicol surprisingly respectful Williamson (Little John), Robert Shaw (the Sheriff), and Connery go far toward stemming its flow. — The gorgeous scenery is worth the price of admission in itself, but it needn't be. Although a minor effort from the director of A Hard Day's Night (indeed, virtually all Lester's work since that high-water mark of the sicties, up to and including his two-volume Three Musketeers, has seemed awfully insignificant in comparison), Robin and Marian, now on view at the Holiday and Boulevard Mall Theatres, contains enough little insights and other small joys to make it well worth anyone's two hours. S3 95 THAN \VE KNOW: shocks is the possibility that a "government of the people" can so easily turn against elements within a society which embrace different ideologies. Dellinger takes joy in describing a movement that fought for civil rights and tried to stop the war. But as he proceeds, he defeats his own arguments by using contradictory information. Take, for instance, THE PFjOFIJTS MOVEMENT TCAVARD DEMOCRACY DAVE DELLINGER media relations in an age of unrest, protest and revolution; Dellinger argues at one point that a New York Times year-end account on South Vietnam in the sixties presents the facts in a way which misleads the reader, revealing the political bias of the writer. But later in the book he wholeheartedly praises the media for sympathetically relating the story of the Chicago 7; without the media's help, he says, many perhaps of the defendants would still be in jail they would enver get out alive. Further on, Delfinger perhaps they wouls never get out alive. Further on, Dellinger argues that the media became "existentially involved beyond its normal wont" during the 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago since they sided with the government. Dellinger's fallacy should be obvious: Whenever the views of the media side with his ideology, he approves; whenever they do not, the same media become the objects of his criticism. — Amid all its subjectivity. More Power Than We it deals with the American judicial system. Dellinger says the courts maintained his case study being only a facade of impartiality Judge Julius Hoffman's court in the Chicago-7 trial. He quotes an informed source who claims that Hoffman "was chosen because he was the only Know shines when — - gh. at least in regard to the Chicago case Portions of More Power Than We Know are devoted to "revolutionary" philosophy; in fact, it is a kind of hornbook on methods and goals. Dellinger advocates non-violence, unless violence is necessary. (The "times" and "reasons" for violence are not explained.) He points to a future when capitalism will be abolished and true democracy will rise up. But although Dellinger denies it, the movement seems to be lackadaisical compared to the sixties, making one wonder whether his hope for utopia is very real. But all told. More Power Than We Know is stimulating reading and a worthwhile memoir of the movement and its workings.

The hottest releases this year to date have been the watered down prowess of Peter Frampton on Live, the infinite possibilities of guitar acrobat Nils Lofgren and Boz Scagg's newest release Silk Degrees, a record destined for cult-rave status. On the new side are Epic's premiere releases of two virtual guitar unknowns. One, Les Dudek, former sideman with Boz Scaggs, and technique twin of brother Duane, is a musical force to be reckoned with. This brings us to Lee Ritenour, anal retentive Los Angeles studio hermit with his brand new product. First Course, featuring some of L.A.'s better known musical recluses. From the start there is a chopped cadence of guitar chording which alerts us to the rock steady rhythm section anchored by ex Head-Hunter Harvey Mason. The album is professional and organized to include all the limitation and sophistication of that session demon Tom Scott's horn arrangements and the progressive, encouraging sounds of ex-Mother's keyboard crazy Ian Underwood on synthesizer. First Course has two musical relatives, Kissin' Cousin's, so to peak. The Brecker Bros, reflect the differences of New York City vs. Hollywood in attitude as well as conceptualization. One is also Jeff Beck collaboration Blow by eminded of the George Martin Blow. The closest approximation to something novel is Side One's closer, "Memories Past," which finds Lee back in those expensive suburban guitar studios, practicing a solo classical piece. Skip Drinkwater's production is safe and clear and is well within range of his northeastern attempts with Duke Williams and the Extremes and the James Montgomery Band. If push leads to shove, then overextended guitar-hook riffing leads to quarter-pounder sinus headaches. In small doses, Lee Ritenour's First Course is a pleasant, if not engaging Ip. However, its reliance on common sense white funk deals a crippling blow. Harkening back to Frank Sinatra chasing Von Ryan's Express, as long as he's in the neighborhood maybe Lee Ritenour should stop in on those tireless innovators The Crusaders. Carl Savage Lee Ritenourr,, First Course - Good Rats*, Rat City in Blue (Platinum) The Good Rats, a hot and nasty rock quintet originally from Orange, N.J., gained what little recognition they have from their frequent appearances in numerous local Long Island clubs. Their brand of hard rock, spiced and seasoned with bits of jazz, was well incorporated in their debut album, Tasty. That disc contained a superb tune (one of my favorites) "Tasty," and on "Injun Joe," a fine guitar solo is performed by Micky Marchello. Peppi Marchello, the lead vocalist, sang quite well with his stylishly raunchy voice. On the new album, Rat City in Blue, the Good Rats are swarming in garbage. Alas, another hard rock band turned sour. The Good Rats have much potential, with the likes of super drummer Joe Franco and guitarist John Gatto but on Rat City in Blue• the music coming out is hard rock crap. The tunes are quite commercial with excessive guitar soloing and lyrics that just don't make it. Peppy Marchello, whose pleasantly peppy voice sparked the last album, must have excessively taxed his larynx. His voice has regressed into one raunchy mess. There is one spmi-decent song. "Rat City in Blue" has a nice jazzy touch that almost puts it into an acceptable class. This album is a strong contender for the year's worst disc. The only factor that could possibly save it from this distinct position is its corny but catchy title. To do penance for releasing this album, the Good Rats should munch Doug Alpernn on Some strychnine. 10 MINUTES FROM CAMPUS AT COLVIN EXIT OF YOUNGMANN So.

Frankie Avalon, Venus (De-Lite) One Sunday afternoon when I was seven years old, my older sister and her white-socked friends took me with them to see Frankie Avalon. I guess it was my first live concert. My appraisal, as I watched him sing and flirt with the pubescent pony-tailers, was that he wasn't so hot. I must have been quite an astute kid for now, almost 20 years later and after listening to his latest vocal effort, my opinion hasn't changed. Recording now for De-Lite records and wearing a very wrinkled suit on the front cover, Frankie fakes it through a host of middle-aged muzakal melodies. His- voice is full bodied but his delivery is undynamic (probably as a result of numerous cases of blue-balls from Annette Funicello in all those beach party movies) and each song lapses into repetitive choruses with annoying background vocals. The fully orchestrated musical arrangements are not bad and often employ a disco beat The highlight of the album is undoubtedly an updated version of early hit "Venus" which is done in an easy, rhythmic style. The his vocal effort, though, lacks the urgency that only a teen-aged Frankie could give it. Essentially this album represents the stuff that fills the air on television variety and talk shows no better, no worse. Hank Siegel Lee and (De-Lite) £ this lustful album is Love and Understanding, and portions of it were recorded live at the Rainbow Theatre in London. The opening song, "Love and Understanding," is saying, "people all over the world, it's time for love and understanding, come together!" The back-up groups on the album are called Tomorrow's Edition and Something Sweet. They perform impeccably, especially on the song entitled "Sugar," even the instrumentation can be called heavenly. Kool and the Gang have been through a great change in the last couple years and you it in their music. Robert 'Kool' Bell, his brother Ronald Bell and lead guitarist Claydes X Smith are now devoted Muslims, and in their own melodic way are preaching to you. This was apparent in one of their previous albums entitled Light of Worlds, because four songs on that album had spiritual messages. One of these songs, "Here After*," tells you four things Muslims strive for: knowledge, wisdom, understanding and peace. Even the covers of their last couple of albums have earthy connotations. The album jacket of Love and Understanding has three breath-taking global horizons on it. Tm not saying that Kool and the Gang has completely broken away from their Jungle Boogie syndrome because they still create songs that exist only to make you boogie. They sing "Hollywood Swinging" again on this new album, but it's jazzed up a little since it is performed live in London. My favorite song on this album, "Summer Madness" (also a previous hit) is rearranged beautifully on this album. Ronald Bell - Black Market (Columbia) During the past five years there has been a tremendous surge in the popularity of contemporary jazz. Through this time, Weather Report has been making their own type of music. As you listen to it, you can actually hear them singing with their instruments. The intertwining of Joe Zawinul's synthesizer leads and Wayne Shorter's saxophone solos shows a rapport between two musicians that rarely occurs. the group first germinated when Joe Zawinul, formerly with Cannonball Adderley, and Wayne Shorter of the Miles Davis band, got together to jam. Playing with Czech bassist Miroslav Vitous and drummer Airto Moreiro, things seemed to click. In 1971, Weather Report put out their first album. Since then, they have released five other albums. Through several band member changes, the group still maintains its own space-type jazz sound. This is due to the originators of the group. Shorter and Zawinul, Each of these musicians has won first place for his individual talent in almost every major music magazine popularity contest. It is this nucleus of talent that gives Weather Report its consistency in style and quality. Weather Report, has an angelic touch on the synthesizer; he seems to sensitize your mind. Ronald does a lot of arranging for the group as well as playing tenor sax, alto flute, piano, arp and vocals. Kool and the Gang sing a song called "Universal Sound," which makes you want to dance, but it also has some religious undertones. Every album that Kool and the Gang have ever come out with, has always had one song I don't particularly care for; this album is no exception. "Do It Now," is the song that just doesn't move me in any direction. "Come Together" is the last song on this diversified album, and it's their final message. Kool and the Gang are not just telling the black mass to come together, but are speaking to "people all over the world." Charlene Price The new album, Black Market, shows this consistency. It is an album of deep feelings and emotions. The musicians show a singular talent in being more concerned about the music rather than showing how well they can play. Instead of Mahavishnu Orchestra type finger flying melodies, Zawinul and Shorter only put in the notes that they think will complement and complete the sound. No more, no less. There is never any confusion as to the type of music they intend to play, and as Zawinul is quoted as saying, "We're trying to make music happen for the people. Unless you try to open people's minds, you'll never know what they are like." On two of the tracks on this album, "Black Market" and "Cannonball," the Weather Report band is joined by ex-Mahavishnu Orchestra member Narada Michael Walden. His superb drumming makes • . these two cuts the best on the album. There are two types of bands, the creators and the followers. Weather Report is a creator. They have a distinct sound and style that is own. Their most recent album. Black thoroughly consistent, and the weather this quintet's future is bright and sunmjd'V. truly their Market, is report for Graham II and Tennille, Song of Joy (A&M) Isn't true love wonderful? After looking at and listening to the Captain and Tennille's latest release, you would have to say that that must be what they're trying to get across. Take the titles, for example. What can be said about an album that has such things as "Lonely Night (Angel Face)", "Thank You, Baby" and "Wedding Song (There Is Love)"? And that cover. Toni Tennille looks like she could be quoting the lyrics of one of her compositions; "Smile for me one more time. Let me see the sun shine in your sad little face." In a general way, this is the main point of the whole Captain album. Not surprisingly, most of the affection is exuded by Toni Tennille, for the Captain gives her almost complete control over the entire show. Song of Joy has very few keyboard solos, even though the good Captain is quite adept on his synthesizers, organs and solos, pianos. There are a lot of vocals from Toni — double tapings, triple tapings, choruses and that's one of the problems. Toni Tennille is a professional. Her voice is not would be unrecognizable if it weren't for the vocals. bad; in fact, it's -much better than many of her The Captain tries for some distinctiveness with a few contemporaries. She sings each song with enough synthesizer gimmicks, but they come across energy, but very little feeling; you get the impression sounding contrived and silly. Still, I can't dismiss this album completely. Both that she doesn't have any idea about what she is singing, like Perry Como performing Don McLean's of them were in the Beach Boy's backup band, so "And I Love Her So." This would be fine if she they must have learned something. Obviously, the stuck to songs that didn't require much expression, Captain has, because Song of Joy is admirably but she insists on doing a boogie, blues (sometimes produced. Considering the material, it would have all been very easy to create a sound that was way too with a little bit of gospel) mixture appropriately laundered for AM singing. It is because full or far too sparse. Both of these pitfalls are neatly of this shortcoming that the best thing on this album avoided, resulting'in a very tistenable album. This is a mindless accentuated by its technical sound quality, which is "Going Bananas," is probably instrumental. excellent. (Nothing new for A&M) Now if the Captain and Tennille would only put She does attempt other styles, and ends up sounding like a watered down version of the some more effort into finding material that fits their Carpenters, .Elton John or other AM favorites. On talents, as well as a little more diversity in lyrics, these songs, Tennille's voice is at least tolerable, and they could be a first rate team. However, with sometimes good. It's the lack of personal style that is several hit singles, a hit album and a prospective now painfully noticeable. Instead of following the television series, I doubt that they are going to try. Eugene Zielinski musical ideas from "Love Will Keep Us Together" — - Prodigal Sun �Harrimcm Theater Lightness ofspring and youth found in Love's Labor's Lost Sonny Fortune (saxophones and flutes) will be appearing with his quintet at the Tralfamadore Cafe, 2610 Main at Fillmore, Friday, April 23 through Sunday, April 25. Fortune was a featured performer with the groups of Elvin Jones and Mongo Santamaria and, more recently, McCoy Tyner and Miles Davis before forming his own. His quintet includes trumpeter Charles Sullivan and has two excellent, well received albums to their credit. Sullivan, in fact, has an album of his own which has accrued wide critical acclaim. The group comes to Buffalo leaving a wake of rave reviews in New York and other eastern cities. Shows will be at 9 p.m. and midnight, with two sets performed for each show. Tickets are priced at $4 per show and are now available at theJTralfamadore and Recor A lesser-known but still fascinating play by William Shakespeare marks the first reappearance in unaltered form of the Bard at UB in several years. Love's Labor's Lost will be performed tonight, Saturday, and Sunday nights and next Thursday thru Sunday in the Harriman Theatre Studio, produced by the UB Theatre Department and the Center for Theatre Research. Performances are at 8 p.m. Director Clyde Grigsby, assistant professor in the Theatre Department, chose Love's Labor's Lost because he felt that Shakespeare in general, and this play in particular, is well suited for giving theatre students valuable experience. "It's an ensemble show, not a star vehicle like King Lear or Hamlet" (the cast numbers twenty-seven). "It's light, bright, and springlike. And it's a young play (one of Shakespeare's earliest) about young people." While not really deprecating what he calls "blue jean drama," Grigsby maintains that "an actor requires more control, vocally and physically, in Shakespeare than is sometimes necessary there. If if you're not you're, not honest iri Shakespeare handling your voice and your body very carefully you're going to fail. It's marvelous training for young actors; it teaches discipline." - - through May 2. Each artist represented in the limited-edition portfolio (which includes works by Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Rauschenberg, and James Rosenquist) has looked forward to the nation's next 100 years and expressed his expectations in an original work. The result is a portfolio of signed and numbered prints that employs a wide variety of graphic techniques and differing styles. Only 200 prints were made by each artist for the portfolio, which has been recognized by the American Bicentennial Association and carries the official The play tells of three young lords of Navarre decide to join their King in three years of academic celibacy. Their resolve melts away, though, on meeting the Princess of France and her three ladies. They attempt to win their ladies' hearts by letters, gifts, even wooing them disguised as Russians all to the amusement of the ladies at their — foolishness. — Age of innocence With this as his cue, Grigsby has changed the play's period from Elizabethan times to pre-World War America, a time of gazebos, green parklands, and lawn parties. "Elizabethan costuming is just too was aiming for," a feeling heavy for the lightness realized in Gary Cajarella's parklike set and Esther Kling's summery costumes. "It was also the last great age of innocence and the play is naive in many ways." Ray Leslee has contributed a fine, sensitive and tragic score that reflects the amorous, comic moods of the play.

Much Ado About Nothing, with its forays of verbal wit, is especially prefigured in the lord Berowns (John Emmert) and lady Rosaline (Theresa DePaolo). The clown Costard (John Simonetti) is to Grigsby "the first of Shakespeare's great fools." The King of Navarre and Princess of France, played by Kneland Stickles and Marcia Wiesenfeld respectively, are also in the mold of later comic lovers of Shakespeare. But what distinguishes the play above all is the the first of Shakespeare's brilliance of its language and its springlike plays to really, manifest this mood, in itself similar to As You Like It. - ISp instruments: mandolin, pennywhistle, 6-hole flute, and recorder.

I �PL/ny prescriptions To ‘the Editor. For those- of you who frequent local pharmacies, notably PK Drugs near the Boulevard Mall, be extremely vigilant of the medication you are purchasing. On at least three separate occassions, the druggist sold to a friend of mine, medication half the size which was called for in the prescription but at the full size price. In other words, he was charging double the actual price.. When we had finally realized the rip-off, and confronted the manager of the establishment, he offered the ridiculous story that the size we wanted and that which he was giving us, were in nearly identically looking jars and thus it was easy to pull the wrong size from the shelves. BUT THIRTEEN TIMES?!! Even wjien presented with receipts, he went further to offer a ridiculously low refund based on the fact that he did not have in his records one or two of the purchases. In actuality it was found that he had not recorded, six of the purchases. Might there be some New York State Law requiring tjje druggist to keep accurate prescription and refill records? It wasn’t until I had threatened to take the matter to some local authority that he offered what was due. In all, the matter involved the “theft” of close to $60. I personally find the matter extremely distrubing and I don’t plan to merely allow it to slide by. How many other people might he have victimized? I sincerely hope that those who might also be affected by a situation such as this, take measures to place pressure on these dishonest businessmen. Let them understand that they are running the risk of being convicted of criminal theft! Gary Minkowitz No need to panic To the Editor. This is in response to Rick Oechsle’s letter that appeared in the April 9th issue of The Spectrum. of democracy March To the Editor. Jimmy Carter’s wanton use of the term, “ethnic purity,” constitutes a bellicose manifestation of racism. That such a concept possesses a close resemblance to the Hitlerite concept of racial purity is a sad fact whose existence cannot be easily underrated or nonchalantly denied. As such, its appearance not only compels the condemnation, but heightened vigilance of all citizens consciously seeking to align themselves with the cause of American democracy, both as a form of political rule as well as a civilized form of tolerant, social life. A cursory look at American history quickly reveals the following indisputable fact: that there are no ethnic groups whose ethnicity ever has or ever will provide a justifiable criterion for regarding even a one as an alien element intruding upon the confines of American societal life; only a man or set of men once have or still can do something as illict and perversely inhuman as that. For a man such as Mr. Carter one riding on the following the shoestring of a fake image should be made indelibly clear: The future of America, as Harold Laski put it in his American Democracy still lies in those particles of humanity comprising that society’s great melting pot. For out of such diversity there ineluctably forms, what an Arthur Schlesinger termed, a new man American. Sometimes spitting, sometimes cussing, incessantly on the move, and usually activated by the lure of great wealth or promise here is a person who sees no present save an expanding future where all men are equals, and no man a pre-determined superior. Therein lies the source of America’s inexhaustible creativity and unbounded propensity towards maintaining, and if necessary advancing, the cause of popular rule. Consequently, no tyrant, whether of hell or heaven, no economic system, whether it be capitalistic or otherwise, is going to deter or enfeeble that process, that march of democracy, for long. — — , - — David Stive Although some of the issues raised are based on fact, most of his statements are quite invalid. Our budget is not, never has been, and probably never will be as high as $3600. We received $2750, for the full academic year to produce two shows: a difficult task. Because of the nature of the set for A Funny Thing... it was destined to be expensive. One house had to be totally functional, that is, with a balcony that is capable of holding at least two persons at a time. I would like to see Mr. Oechsle stand on a balcony that is constructed with muslin on the usual skeleton frame. This was a necessary expense. As for the two other houses, it was decided that we use plywood as We would be able to use these materials in many future productions. The problem with the contract for our use of Sweet Home High Sphool’s auditorium was not a misunderstanding on our part. Our producer signed a contract stating that the charge would be $S6 for each night of performance, and no charge for rehearsal time. This may sound improbable but when we presented The Music Man in the Fall of ’75 we established a very good reputation with the school district administration. They wanted us back. Sweet Home informed us about two weeks before the scheduled production dates that we would have to pay for rehearsal time and approximated the amount in the neighborhood of $500-$600. As to the removal of the set, this unfortunate blunder was one performed by our stage manager. He assured the Executive Council that he and his crew would strike the set by the appointed date. He was spoken to two days before that date and we learned the following Monday that this hadn’t been done. This is of course inexcusable and I will not attempt to explain it away. We have had insurmountable problems with our Constitution which does not clearly state who can vote for the forthcoming production. We could not change it at the time of our organizational meeting as we had to get the ball rolling for the next Mr. Tursi was told we could procure Shea Theatre in downtown Buffalo if we did a production more in the line of Bye, Bye Birdie. The Executive Council agreed. Shea Theatre and the money from CAC was never procured for the production. The reasons for the “loss” of the theatre are still a mystery to all except for perhaps the director and his “staff.” The cancellation of Bye, Bye Birdie cannot be attributed to financial problems. Panic Theatre has always had financial problems, but has always done a show. I have watched Panic Theatre and have been involved with the group since the Fall of ’72. Panic Theatre members have-always come through: what kept them together was setting up a platform in Goodyear Cafeteria to be used as a stage, sweating together and losing their voices together. Everyone encouraged each other and tried to make everyone else feel important. That is How Panic Theatre lived. The production staff of Bye, Bye Birdie had no inkling of the workings of the group. They didn’t 1 just inform people of their mistakes, but chose intimidation and belittlement as their approach instead. This alienated a few, jncluding a lead and an indispensable pianist. There was a later incident that brought to light the outright anti-Semitism of the choreographer. This sprouted a new growth of dissatisfaction and resentment: one I feel quite justified. I have heard the assistant director Lori McCoy, call people “spineless” for quitting. I would venture to say they are the strongest. They left something that they had worked hard on to preserve their integrity and not smile in the face of this sort of prejudice. I applaud these people with great respect. The remaining people who left the show did so because they realized the irreversible damage that had been done. There was no enthusiasm remaining and this would hurt the quality of the show. The production policy staff’s of “if-you-don’t-like-things —the-way-they-are, the-door-is-open-to-you” developed as it was destined to do. The door was used frequently, and Panic Theatre’s production of Bye, Bye Birdie flew out this same door. production. So, Mr. Oechsle, Bye, Bye Birdie is dead, but The Roar of the Greasepaint was chosen and the Panic Theatre is not. I don’t know what you mean Executive Council began accepting resumes for when you say we once again proved we could not director. We chose Mr. Edward Veneziano. I have no produce a show. We have previously produced eight idea who tojd Mr. Oechsle that we felt that he was shows. Panic Theatre died this semester not because the most qualified but that we decided to choose of many problems, as we have always had our fair someone from our own ranks instead. This is wholly share, but primarily because of the attitude of the untrue. Mr. Oechsle submitted his resume stating he production staff and die unwillingness of the cast to had directed this show twice but soon enough light bow down to this attitude. was shed on the truth; He had student directed it in Mr. Oechsle’s letter was so full of high school and assistant directed it one other time. misinformation that it was astounding. His letter also We could not trust Mr. Oechsle’s word. It was as had at its core the bitterness of not securing the simple as that. position of director. Had he been truly interested in Mr. Oechsle states that the first action df the our group, he would have found room for his director was to change the show. Untrue! Mr. expression in alternate means. I suggest in the future Veneziano withdrew from the University. We then that Mr. Oechsle makes it his business to have his chose Mr. Daniel Tursi as our director. The show was facts straight, as in this case he has undoubtedly hurt chanced in a short time, but not solely by the the name of Panic Theatre. director. The issue was brought up at a meeting of our general membership that there would be a Bruce J. Magenheimer, Member problem casting The Roar of the Greasepaint.

Page eleven . �Starting tomorrow Tennis Bulls facing their toughest season by Paige Miller Sports Editor Assistant The tennis Bulls will begin what coach Pat McClain calls “the toughest schedule this school has ever faced” tomorrow at the SUNY Centers Championships at Albany. The Bulls finished with an 8-2 record in the fall, but the team’s top two players have left, so Buffalo is in for what could be a very-rough season. Rich Abbott, who played second Singles for the Bulls in the Randy fall, graduated, and Murphy, Buffalo’s top player and double'es partner, Abbott’s decided to drop out of school. Murphy, however, still remains with the team as an unofficial assistant coach, and according to McClain, has been very helpful in getting the team into shape. Buffalo’s line-up will consist of basically the same people as in the fall, except for Murphy and Abbott. Bill Cole, a junior who played third singles for the Bulls last semester moves up to the number one spot. McClain hinted , r that Cole’s superior concentration may be his biggest asset. Cole also plays a very consistent game, not making any mistakes. Buffalo’s second singles player, Rob Gurbacki, almost beat Cole for the number one slot. McClain matches” tc uses “challenge determine what position each person will play, and in. the final challenge match for the first spot on Tuesday, Cole barely won in three sets, 7-6, 4-6, 6-4. McClain wasn’t sure just how well Buffalo’s new top two would do against other schools. “It’s hard to tell,” he said. “We lost our top two players but a- lot of schools we played will be losing their top players also.” Bottom of order strong One of Buffalo’s primary assets this season will be their depth.

This controversy surfaced in the face of rumors last week over the proposed firings of faculty members in the Department of Speech Work, Sociology, Social Communications and possibly Biology. Almost all of the faculty slated to be cut were either tenured or were under contracts extending well beyond the rumored May 31 firing date. The controversy centers around exactly who will determine what programs and faculty members are to be cut. Executive Vice President Albert Somit told The Spectrum last week, that the Provosts and Deans were instructed to formulate recommendations for cuts which would then be submitted to Robert Fisk, Acting Vice President for Academic Affairs. Fisk was in turn supposed to devise his own set of recommendations and submit them to the President’s office for a final decision. Social Sciences, claimed “he was given specific instructions and specific numbers on a number of different occasions concerning the cutbacks.” Butler, himself, came under attack last week at a meeting of the Social Sciences Faculty for his handling of the retrenchment. With no official decision by President Robert Ketter over specific faculty members that their jobs might be in jeopardy.” Varying criteria Somit and Fisk both claimed that the criteria the Deans and Provosts would use would vary, but would generally be based on the report of the Committee on Budgetary Criteria, published in February. that Both administrators stressed recommendations would be based on departmental programs and not specific faculty members. Asked what percentage each of the seven faculties would receive of the 23 faculty lines scheduled to be cut [see accompanying story], Fisk said he did Departments not consulted Asked what criteria had been used to determine which specific programs and ultimately which faculty were in jeopardy, Butler said “the departments themselves determined what areas would be cut, either by the chairman or a departmental committee.” Sociology Chairwoman However, Adeline Levine, stated that neither she nor anyone else in her department had been consulted prior to an' April Sth meeting in which Butler informed her that four Sociology faculty would be cut. In a telephone interview Monday, Butler reversed his previous statements, claiming that “no specific names were mentioned at that April Sth meeting.” Sources within the administration speculated that initial retrenchment procedures may have been carried out as a “trial balloon” or a testing of University opinion. This would explain much of the confusion and irregularities surrounding determination of which faculty to lay off. They also cited that since departmental programs, not specific faculty, are being cut, tenured professors might be eliminated /?7r M.QDSS if it was decided that their particular fields would no longer be taught within a department. possible. Originally, the specific names of retrenched professors were to be released last week. However, the final decision has been postponed until April 30. Violation of code Sociology Chairwoman Levine claims that the very thought of breaking contract* and firing tenured professors violates an accepted moral code in academia, and threatens the credibility of this University across the country. She speculated that it might be difficult to hire quality professors in the future if there was a chance their contracts could be broken. In view of the controversy, the administration has also apparently reversed itself. Since Dr. Ketter announced, in the April 15 Reporter that all tenured faculty would receive a one-year notice ifthey are to be retrenched and that all non-tenured professors would receive as much time as Behind dosed doors Many faculty members are still unsatisfied with the postponement. Levine claims that the entire retrenchment process has been carried out behind closed doors with no opportunity for faculty date, she said she has not To participation. received any reasons why her department was singled out amongst the Social Sciences, especially since the criteria put forth by the Committee on Budgetary Criteria did not apply. She regretted that no one within the administration has provided any rational plan to consider the educational justification for cutting a particular department. Damage of retrenchment is revealed gradually procedures to be used for determining what faculty lines will be cut. is also affected since a Chemistry professor occupies the line in the Office of the Provost. budgetary Temporary positions University Spitzberg claimed it isn’t possible to speak in terms of eliminating collegiate lines since all faculty positions within the Colleges are temporary. However, he explained that faculty loss is unavoidable xlue to salary cuts and the reduction of available courses. In the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Reitan Mathematics, Provost Paul explained that “the decision to eliminate a line is based on whether a faculty member is scheduled to leave, academic value of the line, consideration of budgetary savings possibilities and the internal for reallocation.” Faculty members whose contract has been terminated or tenure has been denied are out of a job. Five faculty lines will be eliminated from the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics two Biology, one Math, one computer science, and one in the Office of the Provost. In reality, three Biology positions are being cut because a professor of Molecular Cell Biology actually occupies the Math line. The Chemistry Department Although no final decision has been made by this Faculty on the elimination of N.T.P. and civil service lines, Reitam believes only a few civil service jobs will be by Diane Gitlin Spectrum Staff Writer As the specific effects of the are gradually revealed, personnel are first beginning to consequences for each of their cuts assess the respective departments. Of the 143 full-time lines slated to be 23 faculty eliminated, and 120 non-teaching professional (NTP) and civil service spots will have to go. Additionally, the Colleges will have to drop almost 50 courses next year as a result of a $25,000 budget cut. “The effects of the budget cuts will be severe enough to actually change the nature of this University,” said Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberb. “It is critical that the cuts reflect a sensitivity of what a large university should do for the next 100 years.” Due to internal flexibility, persons occupying N.T.P. and civil service positions scheduled for elimination can be placed in other departments. However, fhe decision involving movement of faculty members is more complex and difficult to achieve. Apparent confusion exists on the < - cut. The Faculty of Arts and Letters has gradually tightened its belt over the past year according to Associate Provost Murray For Schwartz. this reason, and the unavailability of statistics, Schwartz'was unable to ascertain the degree of faculty and course reductions. A loss of courses has occurred primarily in the pre-major area, he explained, and the greatest number of reductions occurred last summer. He expects faculty moral to suffer as a result of budgetary problems, leading to an increased susceptibility of faculty to leave the University. been Besides faculty, there have in teaching assistant and reductions graduate assistant lines and a 10 percent decrease in instructional resources, which non-instructional people and includes support money. �Attica inmates n r Loan repayment agreement r Sue guards tor use oi mace i by Dana Dubbs Staff Writer Spectrum Two inmates of the Attica Correctional Facility are preparing a lawsuit against some of the prison guards for their excessive use of mace while on duty. The inmates are suing for damages as well as for an injunction to bar further activity of this sort. The lawsuit is the result of two separate March incidents in which inmates housed in “the box” were allegedly maced by guards for “no reason.” “The Box” is the segregation unit of the prison and is composed of four wings. Inmates confined here are locked in 23 hours a day, according to Bill Mastrolio, attorney for the inmates. Mastrolio works with the Prisoners Legal Assistance ■ Program which is run by the Legal Aid Clinic here. Attorneys working with this program represent various inmates at Attica. They frequently visit the prison, often two or three times a week. Getting even In a telephone interview with The Spectrum, Mastrolio charged “summary punishment” in describing the macing incidents which took place in March. “Allegedly an inmated did something to which the guard has decided to get even for. Usually, the guard will write him up or pay another inmate to settle the score. The inmate is not afforded a hearing. Thus, there is a total lack of due process for the inmate.” He characterized the role of the guard as “judge, jury, and Congress approves added CETA funds City t'dilor Western New York residents who work for the city and county governments under the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) received unexpected good news this week, as Congress passed a bill providing $10 million in additional funds to support the programs here until January. Almost 1 700 CETA workers who work for the city expected to be laid off from May 26 until July I, but they will now be able to work straight through the rest of the year. The county workers were laid off severaj weeks ago, and were not given any prospective date for their return to the payroll. Seven hundred of them will now be returning to their jobs, thus alleviating some severe manpower problems which had arisen in county operations. The most drastic improvement will take place at Erie Community College-South, which lost two-thirds of its janitorial staff when the CETA funds ran out, and was in danger of being closed by the-Erie County Health Department because of the hazardous health conditions that resulted. City in a bind In the city, which has fallen upon hard financial times, the CETA workers have been filling key roles in many departments for some time, and their loss would have thrown many of them into tremendous disarray. The Department of Human Resources and the Department of Recreation, in particular, have come to rely upon the CETA workers to implement their programs, and they would have had to cut back some of their operations, had the cuts gone through. Other areas where CETA workers are employed are the City Court and the offices of the members of the Common Council. CETA was begun in the early 1970’s as a program whose purpose was to fight unemployment through federal funding of jobs in conjunction with local governments. Since that time, Buffalo’s unemployment rate has climbed to 14 percent, and has stayed there. The CETA program has since been refunded several times. Buffalo Mayor Stanley Makowski has asked all his department heads to try and prune their budgets by 20 percent this year, and if they are to come anywhere close to this, CETA funds are essential. A growing number of CETA workers, and some of their comrades on the city payroll, have come to believe that the city government needs the CETA funds to get by. The Division for the Aging in the Department of Human Resources, for example, depends largely upon CETA workers to care for its “clients,” many of whom are unable to support themselves and are unaware of the benefits that are available to them, such as food stamps. These people would be among the ones who would suffer if the city were unable to keep its programs due to a lack of funds. 831-4113. Second class postage paid at Buffalo,.New York.

Mastrolio visited Lord after the alleged incident took place and said the entire left side of Lord’s face was “severely burned.” The lawsuit, which is before District Court Judge John Curtin, is expected to take about one year to prepare so that potential witnesses may be located and interviewed.

Tear gas is “momentarily debilitating” whereas mace “irritates and burns.” No room to visit Aside from the use of mace on inmates, there are other sources of possible lawsuits at Attica. Inmates have often complained that the visiting room is severely overcrowded and “visitors (are constantly] hassled.” Mastrolio said. He added that harassment of visitors by the guards is seen as “an attack upon the inmate’s manhood." Another major complaint is the transferring of inmates from medium-security facilities to maximum-security prisons. There are no hearings held prior to transferring and thus, the inmate is not afforded due process. These and other complaints are currently being investigated by the Prisoners Legal Assistance Program. by Pat Quinlivan APRIL 23-35 FRI., SAT., SUN. SHOWS AT 9 A 12 P.M.

J �SUNY Committee to form campus ambulance rescue service Private ambulance companies in Buffalo charge the rates set by the city: $38 for the initial call, $1 per mile and $5 for oxygen. The committee is proposing a free service.

Campagna said that out of the 21 cases requiring an ambulance reported by the survey, most were for mental health problems and thus were not absolute emergencies. Presently, there are nine schools in New York State with student volunteer-manned ambulance services, including one at the State University College at Buffalo.

The ambulance is a member of Erie County’s Medical Emergency Radio System (MERS), so it can communicate with any emergency room in the Buffalo area. As soon as the patient is in the ambulance, communication is begun with the hospital. This is especially important in an emergency situation because the hospital can have the proper facilities waiting. Stony Brook Squad SUNY at Stony Brook has the oldest and one of the largest volunteer rescue programs. An executive board handles all administrative duties fot the 130 member corps. On the Stony Brook campus there are about three calls for service a day, Program Vice President Wayne Bernstein said. The service is funded by Student Polity (the student government) at a yearly cost of about $15,000. All training courses are given on campus by the Stony Brook Corps. The first step is the 8-hour multi-media first aid course. This is followed by a 25-hour standard first aid course, then a 50-hour advanced first aid course and a Cardio-pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) course. After completing these courses the member is then eligible for EMT training. About 60 members of the Corps have completed the EMT course.

The exhibits will feature a Ralph Nader endorsed “Clean NYPIRG to sponsor annual bike marathon The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) will be sponsoring a bike marathon Thursday (Earth Day) to show support for bikeways and bicycles as non-polluting means of transportation. The ride will begin at the Norton Fountain area, proceed down Main Street, stop briefly at County Hall (Pearl and Eagle Streets), and return to the University. Bike marathons have been held annually for the last several years, although not always on Earth Day. Past marathons have drawn up to two thousand riders. In addition to the bike ride, NYPIRG is urging everyone to ride or walk to school or work on Earth Day. NYPIRG has been active in investigating problems of local bicyclists for some time. In recent months, members have been working with the Niagara Frontier Transportation Committee in an attempt to set up local bike paths. Two paths rated high in priority by local officials are a bikeway between the Main Street and Amherst Campuses, and a riverfront path. Any persons interested in going on the bike marathon or working to set up bikeways in the area are invited to contact NYPIRG at 831-2715 or to slop in their office at 311 Norton.

Increase in cheating leads to tight security Some day the price of admission to a medical or law (CPS) aptitude test may be attaching the arms of the prospective school doctors or lawyers to a polygraph machine and questioning them closely. Are you really (name of applicant)? Are these statements about yourself on this application form true? Have you ever attempted to falsify the records you have submitted to us? Already administrators of the Law School Admissions Tests (LSAT) have begun to thumbprint applicants who take the test instead of asking for a driver’s license or other photo-bearing identification as they had in the past. The Medical Schools Association has asked candidates for the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) to send photographs when they register for the exam and these are forwarded to the test centers where proctors screen candidates when they arrive. The increasingly stringent security applied to professional school entrance exams is partly the result of a new wave of cheaters who are enrolling in top graduate schools with the help of falsified documents and hired exam-takers. Recently a few big cases have come to light and professional school administrators assume they are only the tip of the iceburg. - Commentary For marijuana reform, the students must act right now least one full-time lobbyist for marijuana reform. The other is the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML). NYPIRG supports decriminalizing possession, use and sale of two ounces or less of marijuana. Two ounces or less should be decriminalized because marijuana is normally bought an ounce at a time. When a person buys an ounce, often times he still has some left over from a previous purchase. Occasional users would still be arrested for possession of slightly over one ounce and receive a criminal penalty. NYPIRG also believes sale of small amounts should be decriminalized because of the present definition of “sale.” Legally, “sale,” still means transfer of any amount, regardless of whether money is involved. Today, a person passing a joint can find himself arrested for “sale,” an automatic Class C felony, punishable by one to fifteen years by Bob Voorhis Special to The Spectrum In Albany, there is a major battle over the decriminalizing possession, use and sale of small quantities of marijuana. Directly after Gov. Carey’s proposal to decriminalize possession and sale of two ounces of marijuana, mail ran 80 to one against. (Surprisingly enough, this comes only months after a state-wide poll showed a majority of New Yorkers support such a change.) At least a dozen New York state senators publically oppose any form of decriminalization. Although it is very possible that some form of decriminalization law can pass this year, these recent developments might cancel passage of a bill which begins to deal with this long standing perversion of justice. Paradoxically, when an opportunity to repeal one of the most unjustifiably harsh marijuana laws in imprisonment.

The team was caught when the man, Spiro Pavlovich 111, bragged to some lawyers who were interviewing him for a summer job. Without his boasting, the two Pavlovichs may never have been found out. Expertly forged transcripts are difficult to spot in the mass of applications which deluge professional schools. Inside help is not unheard of. In February, the president of Brooklyn College acknowledged that 1 2 employees of the school’s registrar’s office had been implicated in transcript-doctoring “to improve their own academic records or those of friends and relatives.” Another case involving heavy touching-up of a student’s official transcript was decided by a Circuit Court of Virginia in February. The student, Harold S.

The ETS has reached the point where it must aggressively police the people who take the tests and investigate in cases where cheating seems likely. Suspicions about test cheating are usually triggered when a student receives a test score much better than previous scores or out of line with his academic record. ETS pulls what it calls “large score gain rosters” scores exceeding earlier ones by 150 points or more from its computers, investigates some 300 of the 13,600 LSAT’s that fall into this category, and eventually cancels some 24 scores. But policing in the delicate business of competing for success has brought legal trouble both to the ETS and the Association of American Medical Colleges which has sometimes informed medical schools that an applicant’s MCAT score is under investigation. In a case still pending in federal court, a graduate of the University of California at Berkeley Law School is suing the HTS for cancelling the scbre on her third LSAT after handwriting experts had testified that she had not taken the test. ETS notified the Berkeley school that her test score was no longer considered valid but after consulting an expert of their own, law school officials decided to admit her anyway. The student has since graduated from law school but the case still sits awaiting action in a Boston court. - — Would you like to live in a residential community centered on health studies and human services?

Two years ago, when the feasibility of a University ambulance was first investigated, it was found that $12,000 to get the project investment would be an adequate underway. It is hard to believe that since then, the necessary costs have quintupled when the apparent need for such a service has surely not increased five fold as well In fact, a preliminary study conducted by the Sub Board Health Care Division has not proven that an ambulance top priority for student funds which are system should barely able to support already-existing services.

Since the morally bankrupt United Nations has fallen into the hands of an Arab-Communist-Thirdworld Block, it can no longer be relied upon as an impartial, non-aligned body. These events make it all the more imperative to state clearly the true goals of Zionism. Zionism is a movement whose aim if is to return the dispersed Jews of the world to their ancestral home, the Land of Israel. Though this definition is simplistic, the movement itself has several facets, some of which have been particularly adhered to by various Jewish groups. Religious Jews seek a certain sense of spiritual fulfillment which is attainable only in the Holy Land. Since time immemorial the words “Next year in Jerusalem” have been uttered during the Passover service. The political Zionist, on the other hand, attempts to sustain an independent, autonomous Jewish State on the same site where Jews last tasted the fruits of true freedom some two thousand years ago. There are practical Zionists as well, whose ideal it is to make productive and flourish the land once occupied by a prosperous Jewish civilization that had been forced to flee. Despite the degree to which varying aspects of Zionism are stressed by different proponents, the basic foundation supported by all is a return to the Land. These being the facts, it is a perversion of the truth to equate Zionism with racism. Regardless of the present political situation in the Middle Last and one’s views concerning its etiology, it is absurd to malign and distort the goals of a most noble and justifiable movement. for the upcoming After baseball season I agreed with some of your •statements but some are very hard to fathom. How can you say the Orioles are the favorites in the AL East? The Orioloes remedied nothing when the got Reggie Jackson and Ken Holtzman. What the Orioles need is bullpen help, not two unpredictable discontents. Look at what Jackson has already done to the Orioles. Jim Palmer is criticizing Jackson for not playing and what will happen when he does. Is he really the great player you contend? He has never hit .300 or had 200 hits in a season. He has led the league in strikeouts for I don’t know how many seasons and has even led" AL outfielders in errors for a couple of seasons. He has never stolen 30 bases. As for Holtzman, he has never won 20 games and without that great Oakland bullpen behind him he may not even win the 18 games he did last year. Certainly Grant Jackson is no Rollie Fingers. In giving up Mike Torrez they gave up a 20 game winner that pitched more complete games than Holtzman did in ’75. As for Don Baylor, he missed becoming one of the handful of players to hit 30 homeruns and steal->30 bases in the same season by only four homers. He came into his own last year and will be a star for years to come. He has the potential to win the triple crown some day. In giving up Paul Mitchell they gave up a potential young starter who should start immediately in Oakland. The question is whether the Orioles can match up with the Red Sox. Why should anyone want improvement of Fred Lynn and Jim Rice. Surely their '75 contributions were more than enough. The Orioles outfield is no match defensively for Rice, Lynn, and Dwight Evans. Sure Luis Tiant is aging but Mike Cuellar will soon be 3 l Nobody on the Orioles can match Carlton Fisk’s catching. Defensively. Mark Belanger is the winner over Rick Burleson at shortstop but Burleson is the far better hitter. Perhaps Bobby ('.rich has no peer at second base but 1 just cannot understand why you label the Orioles the favorites. Perhaps even more unbelievable are the labels placed-on the Cleveland Indians. Cleveland is one of ). thought of having Bell as their third baseman. At short is Frank Duffy who can field with anybody. Duane Kuiper at second hit .292 as a rookie last year. Boog Powell is an underrated first baseman and proved he can still hit by hitting 27 homeruns and batting .297 last year. As for their pitching, ask anyone in Cleveland and they will tell you that Dennis Eckersley is a star at the age of 21. Eric Raich, Jim Kern, and Rick Waits should follow. Might I remind you that Fritz Peterson was 14-8 last Rick Manning is one of the best young outfielders in baseball. George Hendrick can still supply power. The Indians won’t make the top but they are certainly not a blah team. Over in the NL your most glaring error was in the NL West. Cincinnati should dominate, but will they? Last year everyone played to their potential and no one had a bad year. Will George Foster have another solid year? What happens if Johnny Bench slumps like he did in ’71 resulting in a fourth place finish for the Reds? Can young phenomenons Rawly Eastwick and Will McEnaney reproduce their banner seasons of ’75? What I am saying is off years Jjy a couple of players could bring the Reds down to everyone else. You are right in saying the Giants should be one of the top teams but claiming that the Braves are one of the worst teams is abjurd. The starting rotation of Andy Messersmith, Phil Niekro, Carl Morton, and Roger Moret is indeed impressive. Even without Messersmith they could throw in Dick Ruthven and still survive admirably. In the outfield Rowland Office, a .290 hitter last year, is flanked by a solid ballplayer in Ken Henderson and Jim Wynn should bring down the fences in miniscule Atlanta Stadium. Darrell Evans at first can hitt’em out of anywhere. Darrell Chaney is solid at short and Jerry Royster at third is a sure star someday. The Braves certainly have a lot of talent and if everyone plays up to their potential they could cause a lot of excitement in the NL West. year. As for the rest of your predictions, your reasoning looks pretty sound. If not for the oversights I have mentioned the article might have been excellent. Perhaps in the future you should look at points other than the obvious. the rising clubs with many exciting young players.

As those of most of the western Sino observers. Cohen’s analysis about the current Chinese political and cultural revolutionary phenomena has been very superficial and misleading. The western observers have often analysed the Chinese affairs in turn of their expectations, and neglected those of the are, in fact, the actual and vital Chinese Very importantly, the ouster of history Teng Hsiao Peng has come in no surprise, if we have had a careful analysis of the last 50 years of the Chinese history. Since the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949, the Chinese people have determined to become socialists as one can easily anticipate that the days of capitalists are numbered because of the greater unavailability of earth’s natural resources and cheap human labor. The determination made by the Chinese people has been guided by Marxism and Leninism, and further implemented by Mao Tse-tung Thought. As the Chinese history reveals, Marxism, Leninism and Mao Tse-tung Thought have never failed to serve the needs of the Chinese people. The recent Prime Ministership change in China has undoubtedly further strengthened the above determination. It is, therefore, a very healthy move, and not, however, a pathological one as most of us may have thought so in the West. Mong Heng Tan, Treasurer Graduate Student Association Rebuttal To Ihc Til 11or Since my letter appeared in your Guest Opinion column of 4/5/76 there have been questions asked and accusations leveled at hunting and myself. I would like to answer these questions and attempt to defend myself and hunting against these accusations. Ms. Eckert seems to have misunderstood what I said about hunters paying for conservation. 1 also realize that “we do not pay for the privilege of expressing our opinions in this country.” What I meant was how could Mr. Knaster justifiably blast hunters as being detrimental to conservation efforts. They contribute most of the money to conservation programs through license fees and taxes, and unfortunately, conservation programs cost money. If hunting were abolished, where would this $70 million come from? If Ms. Eckert interpreted it differently than I am sorry for not stating this more clearly. I also agree with her that relocation of animals to a less populated area does work in some cases. However, I would not consider it feasible to capture and relocate a large percentage of the 25,000 bucks taken last hunting season in New York State. Properly regulated hunting seemed to be the best answer to controlling the excess population of deer. In response to Ms. Kckert’s question, no I would not chooose to kill the starving hoards in Calcutta. Would you choose to trap and relocate them, Ms. Lckert? Yes, Ms. Eckert, you are right when you infer that I enjoy hunting, and no Ms. Schifren, there is not a contradiction between myself being a hunter, but not a sadist. The problem seems to be that too many people believe that hunting and killing are synonomous. When I hunt it is not because I have a desire to go out and kill something. In fact, I often do go out “armed only with binoculars,” quite often during non-hunting seasons, which constitute about 8 months out of the year. If I wanted to satisfy a “desire to kill” I could be always out in the fields blasting away at anything that moves. This I would never do. I have too great of a respect for wildlife and nature to destroy it. I do not consider the life of any animal I may take while hunting “wasted.” I clean and eat them, and men have been doing just that since the dawn of time. bring home what game I get and Robert Dowrey Wednesday, 21 April 1976 .

It is our conviction that academic freedom has secured in the United States. At times this has been blatantly demonstrated by this dismissal of outstanding scholars because of their visible political stands in opposition to the policies ot those in power. But more frequently academic freedom is challenged on a less obvious level; it is attacked within the departments of the University. Scholars in such areas as Marxism, Existentialism, and themselves with Phenomenology have aligned of of the mainstream traditions critical Anglo-American thought and have been denied the opportunity to pursue their interests because it is claimed that the quality of their work falls below acceptable standards. However, when the criteria for such judgements are. examined, we find that they do not belong to the critical traditions these people represent but to the mainstream of American thought. Those in the empiricist Anglo-American tradition often assume, out of an ignorance of other traditions, that their theoretical framework is the only legitimate framework; they forget or never come to realize that the Anglo-American school not been represents only a small fraction of existing ideologies and, that in much of Europe and Asia Marxism has hegemony. They confuse standards of being a good Anglo-American scholar with universal standards of competence. Clearly under such circumstances it is impossible to generate serious critical challenges to prevailing theoretical positions within the American university. Dr. James Lawler has published two books and numerous articles in journals internationally respected and has received unanimous support for tenure within the Philosophy. Department among those faculty members and students who have specialized in Marxism, Phenomenology and Existentialism. The most important assessment of the quality of Dr. Lawler’s work is from these people and for this reason we strongly urge a favorable decision on Dr. Lawler’s tenure case. We, the undersigned, affirm the necessity and importance of teaching Marxism, Phenomenology and Existenentialism at the university in order to insure a well-rounded educational system and the granting of tenure to Dr. Lawler to promote that end.

The position of the Judaic Studies Department was discussed in the April 8, 1976 issue of ART As reported. Professor Silverman should have been up for tenure review this year, 1975-1976; not last. Professor Silverman, having been granted another tenure review, also filed a grievance claiming he should be hired for one more year regardless of the tenure decision as 1976-1977 would be a severance year. On Friday, April 9, 1976, the administration accepted Professor Silverman’s grievance thus extending his stay and insuring the existence of the Judaic Studies Department for at least one more year. Debbie Richards Editor of A RI No friend of mine Now that budget cuts are an integral part of our vocabulary, let’s get down to specifics. What will be cut? A graduate assistant here or a department there? If we had to predict, we would put our money on the departments that the interim report suggested be either eliminated .or crippled. Combine this with the administration’s condescending attitude toward the social sciences and anyone can make a list of departments whose days are numbered. Social Work was our first casualty. The administration managed to dump the undergraduate program and now they have sliced a large percentage of the graduate faculty. We always thought that the University is responsible to the community at large. A large percentage of the social workers in the Buffalo area were educated at this University. If the school of Social Work is rendered ineffective by severe cutbacks, how can this University claim any sort of sensitivity to community needs? The cutbacks in this department also gives the impression that social workers are not needed. I guess all those classified ads calling for MSW (Master of Social Work) degrees really Wanted biologists or chemists. of availability implying that not employment should be a criteria for cuts, we’re just searching for some kind of logical criteria that the University is using to make these cuts. We’re not sure there is one. Does the administration really care about the budget cuts? We’re willing to say no for two reasons: 1. How many people in Hayes Hall will lose their jobs? 2. The cuts have given the administration a good excuse to eliminate departments which they wanted to eliminate anyway. It’s the old soft science vs. hard science debate. We would like to end this letter with some questions to the administration that we expect to be answered without the usual rhetoric. 1. What are your specific justifications for cutting the Social Work faculty? 2. More generally, why cut one department and administration publish for cutting certain departments? The interim report’s discussion of their not another? Why doesn’t the specific list of criteria a criteria was, at best, vague. 3. Is this year the tip of the iceberg? That is, does the administration already know which departments will be severely cut next year? We’re Elaine and Larry Meyerson To the Editor. 1 wish to congratulate Clem Colucci on his fine column, “Outside Looking In,” of April 14. It was well done. However, there is one point on which Mr. Colucci was slightly in error. He referred to a phone conversation between Bert Black and my roommate in which he claimed that Bert Black had phoned me. This, I am proud to say, is a mistake. The phone call that Black made was to a friend of mine. Both my roommate and I were visiting this friend who is an employee of that minor league hack organization known as IRC. Black was calling in reference to some matter concerning IRCB, and when my roommate found out that it was Black on I he phone, he grabbed the receiver and demanded to know why Black is a hack.

We fail to see the practical reasoning behind Arthur Butler’s statement made at a recent (acuity meeting (4/9/76) that “resources could be more constructively used elsewhere.” Moreover, we resent the unethical implications of the administration’s refusal fo specify the rationales underpinning recent actions.

The dismissal of four faculty members, now or the future, would represent a drastic loss ot in substantive areas and expertise which would seriously impair, if not ' destroy, instructional effectiveness within (he department as well as existing interdepartmental courses and programs. The events of the past few years have already taxed departmental resources to the fullest. In the last two years we have lost four full faculty lines and five graduate assistantships with no apparent possibility of replacement. The experience of retrenchment is nothing new to this department. Further reduction of faculty would also affect Masters of Social Sciences Program and departments of Political Science, Fducation and C mmunication who partially depend upon the Sociology Department for courses in research methods and Statistics as well as Interdisciplinary diversity. The A the Sociology protest proposed retrenchment would represent a loss of at least sixteen courses for the upcoming academic year, affecting both graduate and undergraduate students. While many of these courses will be eliminated, thereby damaging the quality of our program, other courses are crucial and must continue to be offered: Without graduate courses such as Methods of Research and Contemporary Theory, basic degree requirements could not be fulfilled. Other areas such as Sociology of Law, Sociology of Mass Communication and Medical Sociology will be seriously hampered. It would also mean that required courses necessary for undergraduate majors would not be available, and seems inevitable that graduate students would be called upon to absorb some of this responsibility. Besides violating the departmental policy which shuns junior graduate students teaching, it would seriously hamper our education and progress toward our degrees. It seems grossly unfair that . through this arbitrary and capricious administrative decisions, we 'stand to lose thesis advisors, committee members and teachers on such short notice. It negates long range plans or courses of study that have been designed by students with these individual faculty advisors. As a united front of graduate students, we strongly urge the administration to put an end to its present policy of secrecy. We have a right to be made aware of information which has such direct implications for our lives. Decisions and policies which will shape the future of the department should be made known.

The meet was a typical Bull performance, in that although Buffalo probably had the better talent in many events, its lack of depth resulted in too many forfeits and giveaways “We were shorthanded.'' explained rookie Bull coach A1 Heinen. “We only have 20 guys. Some of our guys have to go in four or live events, and .that makes it pretty lough.” But lack of depth isn’t the Bulls’ only problem.' Top Bull Eldred Stephens has not fully recovered from a strained arch he developed during the winter season. Although Stephens is still competing and competing well, he has not been dominating the sprinting and jumping events the way he did in his first two jump (he holds the school record), the point differential would have been cut from 18 to 8. A second here and a third there would have put the Bulls ahead, but sheer lack of bodies made that not feasible. Walt Halady was the busiest Bull against the Knights. He won three of the four weight events, and finished third in the javelin besides. Paul KubickT a senior North, transfer from ECC surprised everyone with wins in the 220 and 100, along with a contribution to the 440 relay victory. Stephens wasn’t totally quiet, despite his injury. He also ran in the relay, and grabbed a first in the long jump along with a second in the 100. school record fell, One courtesy of Larry Williams. He broke a two-year-old standard in the 120 high hurdles with 1:15.4 seasons time. Bulls win but lose Actually, the Bulls won ten of the eighteen events in the Geneseo meet, but they had to forfeit the pole vault and the triple jump due to lack of manpower.

Oswego had two pla\cis score hat tricks and Buflalo had one hai trick b\ Dave Hackly. Buffalo consisicnlly found itself one man short as it look many penalties, which led to power play goals by Oswego. In the first quarter the Bulls played very sloppy defense and Oswego capitalized by scoring four goals. Bultalo was only able to score two goals due to the light defensive play of Oswego. In the second quarter the Bulls defense came alive to hold the Great Lak-rs to just three goals while Buffalo managed to score two themselves. In the second half, Oswego's endurance overcame a weak Buffalo squad, as with temperatures soaring into the SO's. the Bulls seemed to fall apart.

Our passing was miserable and we I el 1 apart, said defenseman Garry Passer. “The heal was another problem. We just didn't last." Throughout the day. Oswego proved itself to be the better team, consistently stilling Buffalo's allackmcn. Offensively, with excellent passing and good picking, the Great Lakers easily tore apart the Bulls' weakened defense. Buffalo played poorly, passing erratically and failing to cover open men in their own crease. In the final minutes of the game.

The agenda of Monday’s Council meeting included hospital appointments, discussion of general University admissions policies, the development of Parcel B on the Amherst Campus, academic and budgetary issues, and the student strike and related activities. ,, Thfee student delegates from the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks ;mei Monday afternoon with members of the College Council during a session with President Robert Ketter in his Hayes Hall office. The Coalition, after meeting in Norton Hall and proceeding to Hayes with about* 50 people, demanded that five delegates and a reporter from The Spectrum be allowed to sit in on the meeting. The Council agreed to admit the students, although Executive Vice President Albert Somit refused to allow a reporter into the room. CoaUtwon members had agreed beforehand that delegates should include both men and women and a minority representative. The College Council is comprised of local businessmen, all of whom were appointed by Nelson Governors former Wilson, Malcolm and Rockefeller duties include Their ~ . i No real power Before any Coalition members were permitted access to the meeting, they were rebuffed by Somit, whJ. repeatedly stated that the Council’s sole function was to name buildings on campus and that it had no real power concerning budget cutbacks or ..■*»,«. Coalition members m Hayes lobby before returning to the meeting with the three delegates. Once inside Ketter s office, the delegates presented the Coalition s original seven demands and then asked the Council to urge the SUNY Board of Trustees to reopen its April 29 meeting in New York City to the student public. That meeting was originally scheduled April 28 in Albany as an open session but its date and _ faculty retrenchments. Somit s words were met with derision from some Coalition members. Campus Security allowed the three Coalition delegates to pass through the inner offices of Hayes after Somit conferred with Ketter and other Council members. including Student Association (SA) President Steve Schwartz. the sole student representative on the CouncJI. Schwartz, who is also the only non-voting member of the Council, met briefly with location were changed, according to one unofficial source, because the Trustees feared student disorder and violence in the capital city. Open meeting a*ed The delegates demanded that the Council hold an open meeting with students and faculty on this campus, in particular with those people directly affected by the t they called for cuts. on P ,g, 4- UUAB, Sub Board volley blame for over-spending by Fredda Cohen Campus Editor UUAB and Sub Board officials continue to dispute over whether or not alleged poor financial planning by UUAB may severely limit this summer’s activities program. Treasurer Arthur Lalonde claimed that it was “highly unlikely” there would be any summer activities this year due to mismanagement of funds by one or two UUAB committees. Another Sub Board spokesperson said factors such as rising costs combined with limited budgets contributed to losses within the committees, although he conceded that “some expenditures should not have occurred,” UUAB Director, Dave Benders, said, however, that summer activities line was included in the budget he submitted to Sub Board last yeat but it was cut at the budget heating in July. “It’s not to your advantage to identify anything when submitting a budget,” he said. He also stated that less than one-tenth of SA mandatory student fee money goes into the UUAB budget; thus, a student who pays $7.50 a summer session would only be contributing 75 cents for his/her entertainment. Free events Music Committee Chairman Robbie Scheidlinger added that it was “irresponsible” for Lalonde to say that' there probably would not be summer activities when a final decision has still not been made. He said many of last summer’s activities were conducted for free and he sees no reason why that won’t happen again. Sub Board is also examining UUAB’s budget to see whether extra funds are available. However, at a meeting Monday night the chairpersons of the UUAB film, Dance and Drama, Publicity, and Coffeehouse Committees refused to give aid to the ailing Music Committee, Lalonde reported. Benders and Scheidling did not attend the meeting. Lalonde singled out the Music Committee as the major loser, projecting that by the end of the fiscal year, it might be $9000 in debt. This figure includes the anticipated revenue from the upcoming Bob Marley and the Wailers concert, which he expects will gross only $4000 out of the $14,000 needed to break even. Scheidlinger refuted Lalonde's charges, stating that the Committee was not at fault, and its deficits stemmed from circumstances most of which could not be helped. Less money for more He pointed out that the Committee’s budget was $17,000 less this year than last, while operational costs had gone up considerably. He «aid that even when prices rise, so do people’s “expectations," and there is no way to meet the demand without hurting the budget somewhere. Some losses, he said, came unexpectedly this year. He cited the Toots and the Maytells concert, which was cancelled by the group two weeks before the scheduled date because of illness. Scheidlinger said there is a clause in the contract which allows for cancellation on those grounds as long as the perfomer performs the concert at a future date. Another financially hazardous concert for UUAB was the Funkadelics. which was cosponsored by the Black Student Union (BSU). The Committee had a contract with the Student Association (SA) to contribute $5000 to the show. However, the Committee ended up spending close to $9000 and absorbed a $3000 loss, as a result of close to $700 in damages and “the ineptness of the way the show was run,” Scheidlinger charged. Sell-out needed Scheidlinger also stated that Lalonde’s figures for the Bob Marley concert were given too early to be relied upon. Bob Marley is on his second American tour and will be doing 20 shows. Out of the 17 shows where tickets have already gone on sale, 14 have sold out, he said, adding that if UUAB were also to sell out, it would be less than $2Q00 in debt by the beginning. He claimed that Lalonde had stopped all promotion of the concert, and that $1500 of Lalonde’s projected $9000 loss is specifically for promotional costs. Lalonde countered that he is not stopping promotion for the concert, but rather, is placing it in the hands of the Publicity Committee. Lalonde had at first suggested the concert be cancelled but later changed his minds Former Sub Board Treasurer Bruce Campbell said he signed the contract for the concert because he thought previous concerts would bring in more revenue. When Campbell first okayed the concert, Scheidlinger stated that it would be held in Clark Hall with no opening act. Instead, he learned later, there will be an opening act and the concert is now scheduled for the Century Theater, which raised the cost another $4500. Artistic barriers Scheidlinger responded by stating that he was “getting more and more complaints from people who did not want to use the Fillmore Room and Clark Hall. “There’s no way of having anything of high artistic content there.” Scheidlinger claimed that programming had been lighter this semester as a result of the deficits. He also said that the budgeting part of the committee was not the most important aspect of the job. There is presently a conflict between Sub Board and UUAB officials over who is responsible for watching the finances of the individual committees. Scheidlinger feels that most of the responsibility lies with Sub Board which “has five full-time employees to deal with money and budget restraints, including full-time CPA’s.” Yet, Campbell said he often would not receive any receipts. The chairperson is responsible for knowing the amount of income needed to cover for programs he said. “I don’t think the Treasurer should tell the committee chairperson who to bring in. This is Dave Benders’ job.” He added that the five people working for Sub Board are hired clerical staff and are responsible for all the student governments’ and organizations’ monies. “For us to be telling the committees what to program would be like telling The Spectrum what to write.” �SST foes concerned over damage to ozone by Anthony Schmitz glove from the sun’s ultraviolet Special to The Spectrum rays, an increase in skin cancer (CPS) As the first generation of supersonic transports were granted permission to land in Washington and New York this spring. Secretary of Transportation William Coleman promised during that the 16-month trial period, studies would be made to test the environmental impact of the flights. For nearly two years — of critics the SST's have lambasted the super jets for the possible damage they may do to the earth's ozone layer. Even though 16 months of stratospheric testing are likely to show no substantial change in the ozone layer, that probably won’t be because the SST deserves a clean bill of health.'The reason, according to scientists and researchers exploring damage to the ozone layer, is simple enough. Experts generally agree that about ten years rather than 16 months of studies would be necessary to show any significant change in the depth of the ozone layer. And even then there would be no way to prove what, part of the damage was done by exhausts from SST’s. Danger to ozone Scientific interest in the ozone layer was shaken about two years ago when it was hypothesized that spray can propellants, as. well as the exhaust from SST’s, might break down the layer of ozone that envelops the earth at altitudes of 8 to 30 miles. That - - theory has been confirmed since. partially expected. could be Other consequences could range from a possible increased vulnerability to viruses, disrupted gland functions and eye problems. Studies conducted by the National Academy of Sciences have projected that a fleet of 16 SST’s would probably leave behind enough hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxide in the stratosphere to break down a significant amount of the ozone layer, resulting in 960 new cases of skin cancer each year. Coleman acknowledged the possible danger to the ozone layer in approving the flights, and suggested that studies be conducted during the 16-monlh trial by both the Federal Aviation Administration and a joint study the group of France and Britain two countries allowed to land the new jets in the United States. — Monitoring The results of those studies being were derided before conducted by researchers in the field. Bruce Gregory, executive secretary of an Academy of Sciences group studying the consequences of damage to the ozone layer, said, “tveryone on both sides of this issue is in agreement that in order to know if any unnatural change has taken place in the ozone layer, you'd have to doneut 10 years of monitoring.” At the National Center for Atmospheric Studies in Colorado. Dr. Paul Crut/en also belittled the - With less ozone protecting the suggested atmospheric e.t*- fkJBONS calling it “almost impossible" to collect meaningful monitoring, data on changes that might amount to less than one percent reduction. Crutzen warns, though that even a one percent change could possibly result in 10.000 new cases of skin cancer in the li.S. alone. Crutzen agreed that the six flights daily approved by Coleman would probably have little impact on the ozone layer. But Jie worries that if the current trial pfbves the jets to be economically successful, the fleet might be expanded and approved for landing in more cities. He said with a fleet of several hundred planes, the damage would no longer be unimportant. Possible damage to the biosphere from the SST. doubled with :* fluorocarbons in deodorants and hair sprays, could add up to a dangerous effect. But whether the planes will economically to be prove successful is still up in the air. Airline officials estimate that a round trip ticket on the plane to London from Washington would about 20 cost about SI.400 percent more than standard first class fare. The- planes will use about three times as much fuel as 747's while making about four times as much noise, according to a Federal Aviation Administration environmental impact report. The advantage lies in their speed, averaging about 1000 miles per hour in the three-hour and 20-minute trip,from New York to London. Crutzen questions the trade-off between saving a few hours in travel time and possible environmental damage. “I don’t know if it’s worth it to travel to Europe in a few hours less at the risk of destroying the ozone layer,” he said. Those same questions have prompted by a suit the Environmental Defense Fund to stop the flights and a proposal in the Senate that would band the supersonic jet from the country. The suit is making-its way through the U.S. Court of Appeals, while the Senate proposal was killed in damage done,by — committee. There IS a difference!!! • GMAT • MCAT CPAT . • .

Goodyear or IRC OFFICE-ELLICOTT E347 Richmond �Analysis University is facing its first big retrenchment by Richard Korman Managing Editor The State University at Buffalo only a few short years ago one of the best funded institutions of higher education in the country now finds itself about to undergo its first major retrenchment. This profound change has placed the University in the peculiar positron of growing larger physically (in accordance with a plan formulated in more prosperous times) at the same time its academic program is being trimmed. This paradox is producing institutional strains that may [ ;. have a serious, lasting effect. The problems faced by the State University of New York are being faced by public colleges and universities throughout the country. Like the state that provide their financial support, public higher education now must learn to live with a new economic normality. According to The Chronicle of Higher Education, many states took emergency measures last year to survive the effects of simultaneous inflation and recession. But now last year’s emergency appears, in - — instances, to calling condition adjustments, rather many be a continuing long for term emergency than makeshifts. Part of this University’s current dilemma can be seen in the way this long-term adjustment has been transformed into educational policy. Individual aid Governor Hugh Carey and the state legislature seem to agree that it is better to spend more for aid to individual students, based on their financial need, and to spend less in direct assistance to public and private colleges and universities. Carey’s budget was based on the assumption that the SUNY Board of Trustees would raise Sunshine Law tuition and room rent by $100 each. This was done. Many students who supported the governor in his campaign for that office are painfully aware that he had promised not to raise tuition at state university campuses. The hikes in tuition and room rent are sUppoed to increase revenue for the state system but are also aimed at narrowing the gap between the costs of attending public and private institutions, thus diverting more students to private campuses. The overall reduction for the State University is about 9.1 percent, and enrollments were frozen at all but the recently established • .health. science campuses. In addition, about 1600 positions will have to be abolished. Carey had also proposed a $13.9 million inqfffqe ip tuition assistance funds, about 58'percent of which now goes to students in private institutions. The state’s “Bundy aid” financial aid to private colleges and universities according to the number of was slated for degrees awarded each year a 8.5 percent reduction. It was hoped that this reduction would be offset by a larger Federal from the appropriation an increase that it now government appears will not be made. Sharp reductions in New York City’s support for the City University of New York would result in equal cuts in matching funds included in the state — — — budget. The overall effect of this policy more financial aid to individual students and less will drive the direct institutional support cost of public education higher and higher, and will undoubtedly begin to price students out of the State University system. — — Education policy The entire philosophy of the Governor’s education policy is perhaps based on the mistaken assumptions that the private institutions in New York are in greater financial danger than what is an apparently prosperous State University system. For example, it is widely believed that the end of the post World War II baby boom will make it increasingly difficult for private colleges to meet their enrollment requirements. This is contrasted with the many state-operated campuses that have enrollment already reached their projections for the end of the decade.-On the surface it makes sense to encourage enrolents at private schools by increasing tuition waivers for the students, at the same time decreasing direct aid to SUNY schools.

The Hoyt bill, which is similar to bills previously passed in almost every other state in the Union, was assured of passage when it gained the co-sponsorship Information Act.

NSL seeks to restore cut in BEOG program by Ellen Deutschman Special to The Spectrum (SASU) The National Student Lobby (NSL) Conference held in Washington D.C. April 3-6 brought 200 student leaders together to support a $792 million supplemental appropriation to the Basic Education Opportunity Grants (BEOG) fo;the 1976-77 fiscal year. Approximately one million college students may face reductions in their BEOG funds in the new academic year unless Congress approves the full supplemental appropriation next week. • Currently, the maximum award is $1400 with an average of $800. appropriation is approved, awards will be cut approximately 50 no If percent to a mximum of $1050, with an avaerage of $660. An additional $316 million above the subcommittee’s recommendation is necessary to complete the sum requested by NSL. - Japanese people Ambivalence toward ‘gaijin’ Editor’s Note: This is the author’s seventh article from Kanazawa, Japan. by Marc Epstein Special to The Spectrum As was their custom, two Englishmen and an English woman went horseback riding in Japan one lovely autumn in the year 1862. Unfortunately, they made the mistake of crossing the road near Yokohama at the time that the Lord of Satsuma’s procession was en route. The procession took several hdurs, and they couldn’t be held up by it. The Satsuma samurai responded swiftly, by cutting one of them in half and wounding the other, allowing only the lady to escape unharmed. Anti-western feeling ran quite high in Japan at that time. The three centuries old edict that called for the shogun to expell barbarians had been broken when Admiral Perry landed, and now other countries were demanding entrance and diplomatic rights. Many felt that the shogun was failing to fulfill his duty as military dictator of Japan. After all, his title, when translated means “barbarian (foreign) subduing general.” learn Committment Additional money is needed due to a higher student participation rate rate than has been predicted by the U.S. Office of Education (OE). For the current academic year, the OE had projected a participation rate of 56 percent although the actual figure was 74 percent. Congress deomonstrated its commitment to full-funding of the BEOG program when it approved a supplemental appropriation of $180 million for the 1975—76 year. This %180 million was taken from the $715 million originally appropriated for the BEOG program in 1976. Therefore the actual amount available in 1976 is $535 million. The $792 million requested supplement includes $180 million to restore the 1976 appropriation to its original elvel, and $610 million, as estimated by OE, necessary to prevent any student from receiving a reduction in aid. The 1977—78 federal fiscal funding for financial aid, post card voter registration and bills that will guarantee minimum wage for federally financed work-study programs were other isses the students for. “NSL’s function is to represent students nation-wide on issues involving their rights and to have a voice in federal financial aid policy. Conference participants agreed that state-wide lobby organizations should take a more active role in NSL because of feelings that NSL is a needed entity,” said Student Association of the State University (SASU) Vice President Stuart Haimowitz. Discussions concerning NSL’s future stressed a need for a student presence in Washington and in individual states. Conference participants endorsed the motion for NSL to continue lobbying and to alleviate its deficits, rather than face a possible shut-down. British responded The to this outrage by bombarding the city of Kagoshima in a display of western military technology never seen by the Japanese before. Although the city of Kagoshima was throughly destroyed, the Japanese of Satsuma responded by befriending the British, in order to their shipbuilding and weapon forging technique. Gaijin This response is typical of the peculiar ambivilance the Japanese continue to show to the non-Japanese. In Japan I an not known as an American. I am simply called “gaijin” a barbarian. If you live in Tokyo or Yokohama you can minimize the fact that you are different by frequenting places — where “gaijin” gather. However, here in Kanazawa there is no escape. People stare at you, talk about you, laugh at you. and also admire you. When a Japanese child catches site of you for the first time, he/she either becomes hysterical or dumbstruck. One AMeircan family (there arc about 12 of us Gajjin in all) refuses to travel in this area because they always become the center of attraction. Depending on your mood and circumstances you feel either flattered, amusted, or insulted by this treatment. Yesterday a Japanese student (Marxist, in a way Marx never would have comprehended) told me that he wasn’t interested in having me live in his dorm unless I accepted his rules of “comrade equality,” but in the next breath told me he would be glad to have me because I was “gaijin” and spoke English. Even Japanese Marxists have their way of distinguishing between native comrades and “gaijin” comrades: Muzak Last week I walked into the newest department store in Kanazawa to do some shopping. Wherever I turned I saw red, white and blue banners, picutres of Washington and other revolutionary heroes and huge Bicentennial posters. The muzak played Sousa’s “Stars and sTripes Forever” and other “patriotic” tunes endlessly. It seems that the store was using our Bicentennial as the theme for its annual spring sale. Although it was just a somewhat crass exploitation of Ameirca’s second century celebration in order to sell Japanese products, it pointed to the dramtaic significance that American “gaijin” have had in the daily life of the Japanese. As I looked around the store 1 noticed that Ameircan commercial-technological revolution had worked its way into the very fabric of Japan. That the store Revolution was not using the Russian or French as its theme may be more significant than most of us realize, whether or not you oppose or are in favor of the Americans “imperial-capitalist” state. For a few minutes the combination of the music and the posters made me almost forget 1 was in Japan. The Japanese are right, a gaijin is a gaijin, and I found myself longing to be back in “revolutionary America.” THE SUNY/B GRADUATE STUDENT ASSOCIATION in conjunction with ' SUNY/B STUDENT ASSOCIATION State University of New York at Buffalo New York State University College at Buffalo present THE SPRING 1976 SCHOLAR IN RESIDENCE; Long Dr. Richard Director of the Center for African & Afro-American Studies, Atlanta Univ.

Wednesday, 14 April 1976 The Spectrum . Page five . �Editorial Open meeting in New York the next day. This raises some important questions, and tells us certain things about the Trustees. For one thing, it shows us that so far, the Trustees have not felt it necessary to take any exceptional action, i.e., a special session, as some symbol of acknowledging the seriousness of the crisis within SUNY. Instead, they have decided to meet in the normal fashion in New York City, with only one non-voting student present. It also demonstrates that the Trustees are reluctant to meet with what will be at least an extremely interested audience of students and journalists. It will also successfully undercut a great deal of mass organizing that was centered around the meeting. If the Trustees are fearful of hostility, perhaps they should ask themselves why. Maybe the Trustees are so secure in their positions that they cannot imagine the havoc budget cuts are playing with peoples' lives, and the life of the University. Happy holidays University's decision to hold classes on both Passover and Good Friday this year greatly inconveniences the majority of students, faculty, and staff on this campus who wish to observe these two important religious holidays. The Members of the Calendar Committee, who set the dates for all vacations, and President Robert Ketter, have repeatedly stated that because Easter and Passover happened to fall in the middle of April rather than the middle of the spring semester, they did not mark these as days on which the school is officially closed. However, many other state universities worked out schedules that gave their students a week-long break at the end of February, beginning of March, as well as a three-day holiday on April 14, 15, and 16. We seriously question the Calendar Committee's judgment this year, considering that teachers are still cancelling classes, many students are still going out of town, and even The Spectrum will not be able to publish on Friday or Monday due to deadlines that conflict with Passover and Good Note: I find on proofreading that this column is replete with "he” and "him” and "man" and "men" where, obviously, both sexes are intended. I found also that I could not change most such references without awkwardness. English, unfortunately, is a sexist language, I admit it and deplore it, but one ought not blame the mirror for the wart upon one’s nose. When last I tried to disturb the peace and plenty of this former community of mine, I essayed a column on that intriguing sub-species of humanity, the hack. That column was a critical examination of the hack and his particular foibles. Now, 1 shall redress the balance; now, I shall write in favor of the hack. Fairness and balance demand it, but far more do the hack’s small but real vitures and lesser but authentic values demand it. Let us now priase these far from famous men. A hack is, in general, an object of contempt, “hack” and often wisely so. Even the name grates. It has the sound of a person removing a phlegmatic obstruction from his throat, not a bad analogy to the perceived and frequently actual function of the hack. Hacks thrive on procedural minutae, frustrating those who have no stomach for Robert’s Rules. Hacks write, understand, and administer election rules. Hacks know whether Stevenson carried the fifth ward or Brownstein carried Governors’. And hacks care. Hacks are fascinated by the techniques of political manipulation, and indulge in the mechanics for the sheer joy of it. Hacks are often disarmingly straightforward in their love of maneuvering. This may not sound like an adequate definition of a hack, but it is, for in no one else is there such a precise identity between what one does and what one is. The hack is what he does and does what he is. David J. Rubin told me a story that illustrates perfectly the consanguinity of form and function in the architecture of the hack’s personality. Bert Black, who is to connoisseurs the hack’s hack, once phoned David and got his roommate, who, having seen in The Spectrum and heard from David that Bert is the archetypal hack, demanded: “What makes you a hack? What . — . »** by Clem Colucci The State University Board of Trustees has quietly cancelled its April 28 public meeting on the State University at Albany campus, and has instead decided to meet privately 1 1 Outside 'S./ — do you do, what is there about you that makes you such a hack?” Bert calmly replied: “I sit on 13 different committees.” The story may be apocryphal, though Bert would never dream of denying it, but it makes the point. Bert is his 13 the different committees; 13 different committees are Bert. But all this having been said, I still contend that the hack is not only amusing, but valuable. And he is valuable precisely because he is, and to the extent that he is, a hack. K, * -itT ’>». -» What infuriates the non-hack most about the hack is his chameleon-like ability to switch colors at a moment’s notice. One day the hacks will join with NYP1RG to plunder the athletic budget and the next day they will join with the athletes to block a CAC van. The most remarkable thing, though, is that the hacks will maintain civil relations with all parties after the vote is over. It isn’t hard to understand, really. The best hacks, the ones who know and admit they are hacks, do what they have to do and understand when anyone else does the same. Hack A: “You screwed me on that vote to recommit.” Hack B: “Sorry about that, pal, but you know how these things go.” Hack A: “Yeah, I just came by to tell you I have to stick it to you on the appropriations bill.” Hack B: “No sweat. You up for a beer after recess?” Hack A: “Sure.” The hack knows that Gad is not necessarily, on his side, which means Satan is not necessarily dealing with his opponent. Hacks, in their refusal to make everything a vital contest of principle, add a bit of needed civility in an uncivil world. The hack is not a hero, and is suspicious of anyone who calls himself one. He keeps his emotional stake in the outcome of any contest to a minimum, consequently, he will not rage and bluster when he loses. But this picture of the easygoing, oblivious hack is somewhat overdrawn. I suspect that despite the hack’s cynical front, the hack cares in his way. I spoke recently to a hack who, in the wake of the latest round of primaries, gleefully anticipated the terms and timing of his imminent sell-out to Hubert H. (for Hack) Humphrey. But this hack could have sold out any time. He need not have backed a candidate who was a probable loser and whose campaign lacked most of the machiavellian subtlety hacks love. The hack would be the first to deny it, but I’m sure that under his blase facade he actually wanted to see a decent life provided for all Americans. 1 suspect that the hack is a hack because he is embarassed by the deeper values he holds dear, knowing how imperfectly he, or anyone else, lives up to them. Let us, then, celebrate the hack and his minor vitures, not the least of which is his tolerance for human frailty, which he sees writ so large in himself. His good points are not great, but they are nonetheless real, and there is something to be said for those who chose not to fight everything on the beaches and in the streets. Tomorrow, we will return the hack to his merited position of contempt, but for today at least, let us honor his claim to a small portion of our - respect. Friday. While we realize that discussion of thi? matter at this point is after the fact, our concern is that this situation does not arise again in future years. The Easter and Passover holidays are important enough to members of the Christian and Jewish faiths that the University should somehow arrange to give these days off, no matter when they occur.

Wednesday, 14 April 1976 Gross insults To the Editor. 1 am not enrolled at your University, but I have had the unfortunate opportunity to read your paper, The Spectrum. This letter is in direct response to the April 9 letter from Marc Bickler, and indirectly to The Spectrum editorial, Udall. The latter was bad enough, narrow and slanted as it was, but Mr. old work horse was “retired” to become mucilage. Is this the activity you are endorsing? Old age does not have Mr. Bickler necessarily infer “debilitation” and The Spectrum, with their lack of it, both forgotten the wisdom of experience ? I realize I may have overstepped the bounds of fair argument during this rebuff, but 1 am compelled, by the total ignorance of both the editorial and Mr. Bickler’s haughty endorsement, to include die whole of my response. I also realize that it is the Editor-in-Chief’s expressed right to edit or omit any letter submitted for publication, but I exhort you, in the interest of journalism, in the interest of an educated America, to publish this letter in its entirety. I further urge both the editor responsible for that “despicable” editorial, and Mr. Bickler, the author of that even more contemptible laudation, to defend themselves before my allegations. Thank you for your kind attention. — Bickler’s letter of endorsement was “too much.” Doesn’t Mr. Bickler realize that Henry “Scoop” Jackson does, in fact, have a viable platform, one that makes the label “Hawk,” the term used by both his letter and The Spectrum editorial, entirely inadequate? Does he not also realize that to term a rising presidential candidate, such as James Carter, as merely being “two-faced" (a term both the editorial and Mr. Bickler used without documentation) is also an inadequate appraisal? While I don’t support the gentleman, the very fact that he is having an increasing influence on the national constituency merits him closer examination. And finally, Hubert Donald Morris Kratowitz H. Humphrey, a man who has sacrificed the greater protion of his life in service to this nation, by whatever motivation, deserves better than to be Editor’s note: If you glance at Mr. Bidder's letter assaulted as an “old has been,” as I believe the again, you will see that he is obviously speaking editorial termed him. What gross ingratitude! Such "tongue in cheek.” Rather than supporting the belittling smacks of Orwell’s Animal Farm, when the editorial, he adheres to your point of view. �' by Cindy Cirile Buffalo Animal Rights Committee , This is written in response to Robert Dowrey’s guest ) opinion, which appeared in The Spectrum on April 7th. Let me begin by saying that Stephen Knaster’s article, which appeared in the March 29th issue, “Hunters Thoughtlessly Murder Helpless Wildlife,” was not printed in its entirety. Not only was the actual title of the article changed, (the above was not Stephen Knaster’s title) but materials relevant to a coherent statement of the anti-hunting position were “edited” out of the article. Mr. Dowrey’s article is seductive; it is structured in such a manner that it appears logical and coherent, and would be convincing if the “facts” presented were true. They are not. Instead, Mr. Dowrey’s article contains one fallacious statement after another. I would like to address myself to some of Mr. Dowrey’s more blatant errors, starting with his first statement. Mr. Dowrcy accuses Stephen Knaster of quoting from biased sources. He claims that it was underhanded to quote Cleveland Amory and Peter Singer, both fervent humanitarians. Mr. Dowrey is making a mountain out of a molehill. Only two quotations were used in the article. The first quotation, from Singer, was not even in the body of the article, it was the introduction to it. The second quotation, which Mr. Dowrey claims is a biased one, contains information garnered from the U.S. Endangered Species List, not from Mr. Amory’s imagination. Does Mr. Dowrey consider the U.S. Endangered Species list a biased source? Mr. Dowrey claims that the sources he used in his article “maintain a neutral stance twoards hunting.” He assures us that he will not be guilty of quoting from 'biased sources. Mr. Dowrcy’s “neutral sources” are the National Wildlife Federation (NWF) and the Wildlife Management Institute (WMI), both of which were created and funded by the Remington Arms Company, Hercules Powder and the Dupont Corporation as pressure groups to promote hunting. In his book, The Right To Bear Arms, Carl Bakal describes an April 24, 1935 meeting of the firearms industry at which the NWF and the WMI were set up. Bakal describes these two groups as “creations of the arms industry.” Both of these organizations opposed the ocean mammal protection act and condone the baby seal slaughter. In their published literature, they invariably take a pro-hunting, pro-management stand. The “unbiased” nature of the NWF can further be illustrated by citing a quotation excerpted from their publication. National Wildlife, written by one of their directors, of all people, Robert Stack. “Hunting instills the companionship of a father and son together, the close ...” bond that develops between hunters of whatever age pro-hunting Stack is We do not need to question whether this is clear fromTiis statement. What we do need to ask is why Dowrey would see fit to use these as his unbiased sources.” Sloppy research, Mr. Dowrey. Mr. Dowrey would have us know that he doesn’t consider himself insensitive, nor do any of his family or friends. Unfortunately, the fact that one’s family and friends think one is sensitive does not make it so. If Mr. Dowrey wishes, we wfll be glad to introduce him to a great number of animals (human and otherwise) who would probably take issue with them. Mr. Dowrey, contends that hunting is a “relaxing sport.” We are curious to know which aspect of hunting relaxes Mr. Dowrey, the “communion with nature,” or the actual shooting of the animal? If Mr. Dowrey so enjoys “being with nature,” we suggest that he buy himself a good camera and “shoot” pictures of the animals he claims to love. (Incidentally, telephoto lenses are available for cameras as well as rifles.) If the relaxation is derived from the actual shooting, we suggest that Mr. Dowrey tote his — * ; Guest Opinion Mr. Dowrey, who states that Mr. Knaster is fuU of “hot air,” resorts to overt emotionalism in his references to a scab-covered fox and a starving deer. He claims that hunting improves upon nature, and that hunting can “avert these tragedies.” Mr. Dowrey’s hypocrisy astounds us. He supposedly feels great compassion for the starving deer and . scabby fox, but what about the animals who are maimed gun to the local rifle range, where he can achieve the or wounded by hunters and left to die slow, torturous deaths from gun shot wounds? 20-40 percent of all deer ultimate in relaxation by firing at lifeless targets. .

How many brave hunters would step into the ring with a 1200 pound grizzly bear? Unfair, that few hunters ever get a shot at one. But, if as he would you say? We contend that it is as unfair to stalk a rabbit have us believe, the woods are crowded with starving deer, one would imagine they’d be available for the “getting.” with a rifle.

Mr. Dowrey would never shoot a starving Mr. Dowrey states that man has spent over 99 percent of his history as a hunter. Really, Mr. Dowrey, you must deer or a blind fox anyway; hunters prefer to bring home a healthy, youiig animal. This weakens the genetic stock of realize the vast difference between hunting as a “relaxing sport” and hunting for survival. It wasn’t until the the species, and often kills the most viable animals before they reach breeding age. industrial revolution that man began hunting for hardly 99 a few scant centuries ago “relaxation” The quotation from Thomas Kimball, a fanatical hunting advocate, begs to be disputed. He claims that the percent of our history. In addition, your logic again proves faulty. Wars have been a part of man’s history for longer deer populations of Wyoming of Wisconsin could not than sport hunting; would you therefore condone them achieve a self-sustaining level without hunters, unless wolves, coyotes, and mountain hens arc “restored.” because they persist? Man’s history is hopefully a “Unless” is of course the key word in this apssage. Wolves, progression forward, not a re-enactment of his past coyotes, barbarisms. and other natural predators are being exterminated in order that the deer population can rise, so Mr. Dowrey gave us cause for a good laugh when he cited the Boone and Crockett club as the first organized that the hunters can “enjoy the relaxation” of killing them. If man stops interfering with animals, the deer, proponents of wildlife conservation. Let’s get the facts mountain lions, wolves, coyotes, etc. would all reach straight. The Boone and Crockett club, founded by Teddy self-sustaining levels, with neither the help or Mr. Kimball Roosevelt, was known not for its humanitarianism, but for its registration of trophy heads, of which they had to have nor Mr. Dowrey. We would now like to address ourselves to Mr. a particular number before they were even allowed to join Dowrey’s personal attack upon Stephen Knaster’s the club. Their original constitution stated their aim as “to character.

A contribution is a performance record. Stephen Knaster is the project head voluntary commitment of time or money to a particular of the Buffalo Animal Rights Committee, and devotes cause or organization. Everyone knows that fees for more than 25 hours per week to the fight to alleviate the hunting licenses are mandatory; therefore, fees for hunting suffering of domestic animals and wildlife.

For the past few years, money and would, we are sure, pay a tax to stop hunting if one were available. raised annually through this tax has exceeded 40 million Mr. Dowrey also questions whether Mr. Knaster’s dollars. The argument that all monies raised for this tax come from hunters, however, is erroneous. It is estimated concerns extend to cattle in the slaughterhouse, and sarcastically remarks, “How many times has Mr. Knaster there arc 45 million owners of firearms in the country. enjoyed a nice steak, slaughtered, just for him?” Stephen About IS million persons buy annual hunting licenses in their states. Perhaps another 2-5 million are farmers who Knaster, as well as all the members of the Buffalo Animal Rights Committee, is an ardent vegetarian. His sympathies hunt on their own lands and are not required to buy licenses. Less than half the persons owning guns use them extend to all animals, not only those slaughtered by for hunting. Yet, everyone who buys gun or ammunition hunters. If Mr. Dowrey wants to demonstrate his love of animals, we invite him to join B.A.R.C., where we work to for any purpose is taxed for this conservation fund. Mr. Dowrey states that of the 74 bird species and the save lives, not take them. Hunting is not a personal question. We abhor the 35 mammal species on the endangered species list, not one Dowrey does think these legally. hunting How of helpless animals, and certainly, killing “for Mr. is hunted animals got on the endangered species list in the first relaxation” is the most contemptible excuse for it.

We saw a vehicle with flashing lights ahead to the left of our vehicle. As w$ got closer we saw it was a fire truck. We then heard a siren which sounded like it was coming from the fire truck,, not realizing it was coming from a Fire Chief’s vehicle behind us. We were then pulled over and charged by the Fire Chief for blocking an emergency vehicle and for obstructing Governmental Administration. Because this fireman decided to give us a hard time, he was able to cause us pain and suffering, embarrassment and saddle me with a permanent arrest record. The judge threw the charge out'in court, but that was not the end of it. Many months later, I was accosted at Buff.

The services of this office are unique to its Controlled Rooms.” On the'first point of the letter, I agree. College operation'and are not duplicative of other student housing should be available on both campuses for services. OFSA provides advisement on the required those people who prefer college life and want to legal basis for the enrollment of foreign students, avoid the buses. technical and related assistance to maintain their On the second point I strongly disagree. The legal status and various other special services to the idea of rating systems in college housing is to give foreign students. Some of these are: interpretation rooms to those students who contribute to life in the of visa and immigration regulations, approval of college. Like the writer says, “The colleges are new, student status in U.S., including extension of stay, innovative concepts.” How do you expect the transfer of schools, part-time work permission, colleges to stay innovative if the students who are international taxation problems, interpreting foreign willing to spend timeand effort in the College aren’t educational credentials, providing financial around to contribute? The kind of person who information and counseling, resolving intercultural “displeases” the College is one who just takes up differences in the classroom and residence halls, living space and never participates, he’s the one 'providing orientation to U.S. system of education who’s a “hack.” and culture, organizing and developing intercultural Point three is an out and out lie. I don’t know educational programs, cooperating with community Ryan and Mr. Furman get their groups to provide programs such as educational where information but it’s wrong. The only College I know programs in the city’s public schools, etc. OFSA about is Rachel Carson and I know for a fact that serves about 1750 foreign students on campus with a professional staff of three and a total staff of six. the only categories for getting a rating are: I. How long you’ve been attending any This professional staffing ratio (1 for 600 students) university. is below the nationally recommended standard and 2. How long you’ve been a member of the the N.Y. State Division of Budget requirement of College. 1:200. 3. What activities you’ve participated in.

Some of the people who have office. “We will provide the same programming the most to contribute may not have such great possibly even better services than that already averages. existing through OFSA,” Dr. Siggelkow says (The The real farse occurred last year when there Spectrum, April 2nd). But at the same time the weren’t any rating systems in the Colleges. The hacks committee reviewing. his office concludes that the were bartering with each College to see how good of Division of Student Affairs is maintained at a bare a room they could get. Do you think that Colleges bones fiscal level and is already significantly space should be filled by these hacks? Or should it understaffed (Reporter April 1st). How is it possible go to concerned students? In conclusion I believe that the rating systems are justified if only to keep out those who don’t contribute. Keep in mind the fact that anyone can participate in College activities regardless of whether or not they live in the College or pay the College activities fee. Mondays! — then to continue to provide student services at the same level as OFSA or as Dr. Siggelkow claims “even better services”? As a matter of fact if this was possible, then why should anyone blame the.New York State Legislature as “myopic, insular and chauvinistic” as Dr. Siggelkow has chosen to do (.The Spectrum, April 9th). How can anyone be convinced that the elimination of OFSA will not inevitably have deleterious consequences? We have only to remind ourselves of the situation last year when the Office of Minority Student Affairs was eliminated. And there again was Dr. Siggelkdw with his confident assurances that “the functions of the OMSA will be decentralised” and of course “carried out more effectively than before by the different divisions of the Vice-President’s office.” Don’t we know how well these services are being performed now? It should be emphasized that services to foreign students require expertise and experience not available elsewhere. The functions of OFSA are unique and are not duplicative. Dispersion of these services will result in irrepairable dislocation of services that are very much needed. The promised decentralization can only virtually eliminate these services and also undermine the already inadequate student services available to all students American and foreign. The GSEU Foreign Students Caucus has given its support to a meeting of representatives from all foreign student clubs jointly sponsored by the GSA Foreign Student Affairs Committee and the SA International Coordinator, on Thursday, April 15th at 5 p.m. at 232 Norton. At this meeting proposals related to retaining 6f OFSA will be discussed and plans for immediate action will be decided upon.

A fruitless attempt to smuggle a camera into Kleinhans was the culmination of a series of hassles and frustrations. After a bittersweet comedy of errors foisted by some unkind form of cosmic imposition. Dr. Duncan, the illustrious non-contributing editor of The Spectrum, and myself finally sauntered into Kleinhans for the Laura Nyro concert. Prior to Laura’s set the previously mentioned editor and myself retired to Kleinhans’ underground alcohol oasis for the prescribed journalistic ritual of imbibing a bit of liquid refreshment. It’s a function required of any critic worth his mildewed press card. Dr. Duncan and myself, after testing an amazing array of sardonic and jaded faces out on the mirrored decor and generally conducting ourselves in a manner that approximated civility, made our way to our seats. The words di nt come Phil Ochs, singer-songwriter-guitarist-lyricist, who in the Susies provided some of the strongest criticisms of the Vietnam War through his music, committed suicide Friday in his sister’s home in Far Rockaway, Queens. According to the New York Times, a close family friend said that Ochs had been very depressed for a long time. “Mainly, the words weren’t coming to him anymore,” the friend said. Ochs, who was 35 years old, had been living with his sister, Sonny Tanzman, since December. He died by hanging. Ochs, who had been given the tide, “troubador of the new left” by various critics several years ago, wrote and sang numerous anti-war songs including “Changes,” “Love Me, I’m a Liberal,” “Talking Cuban Crisis,” “Draft Dodgers Rag,” and “I Ain’t Marching Anymore.” Few who were politically active in the sixties can forget his words when he sang.

The vision widens and the rest of the band emerges from the shadows as the stage lights come up. The band’s jazz orientation is given away immediately by the presence of an upright bas$ and vibes. Laura presides over the musical proceedings with a haunting secretive persona. It’s an aloofness bom out of her intense concentration. The songs are played as mild applause grows to greet such recognizable tunes as “And When 1 Die” and “The Confession.” Nyro’s voice pours out a controlled emotional honeyed sweetness; weaving and enveloping her voice around the melodies. Occasionally she would let loose a caressing run of notes that would trail off ire POSITIONS Applications for: minority Affairs Chairperson by Randi Schnur ArtsEditor Known to most of us as the Uncola Man of Television commercial fame, Geoffrey Holder is most famous for his voice that Slithery, sensuous Trinidad drawl and the correspondingly long, lithe body from which it flows. Thus, his first appearance on Studio Arena’s stage Monday night, followed immediately by the graceful bow of the dancer and a low “Good ceeve-ning,” brought the laughter and applause of instant recognition. The last of a series of programs cosponsored by Studio Arena and the SUNYAB Office of Cultural Affairs, Holder’s one-man Instant Theater show provokes much more of the applause. After the initial reaction, though, the audience clapped in recognition of talents few members had realized this theatrical whiz possessed. “I would like to do that which f enjoy most,” HOIder began, breaking into the first of several short dances he performed during the evening, backed by every sort of taped music from classical striptease to electronic Bach. A subsequent description of the Mardi Gras on his native Caribbean island included the observation that “You don’t have to go to Marth Graham and take a course to release and contract,” a motto which seems to be the basic tenet of this dancer’s artistic faith. A self-taught choreographer who firmly believes that uninhibited improvisation is the highest form of the art, Holder also paints, acts, directs, designs, tells terrific stories, and cooks all professionally, and all without formal training. - — Inter-Residence Judiciary WIRR General manager WIRR Administrative Assistant Pick up applications at: IRCB Office 102 fl So.

A competent horn section composed of flute, trumpet and sax periodically colored and textured the songs. Most 6f Laura’s selections were culled from the Smile and Eli and the Thirteenth Confession albums. Her most eloquent readings of her songs were from Smile. “I am the Blues” and “Money” were strikingly rendered. “The Cat-Song” was given a strong oriental flavor and hijinx, complete with the vibe player donning a cat’s mask. Nyro’s set was not much longer than an hour but she painted with brevity a quality musical portrait. It was a good solid professional performance but lacked the intangible magic that separates a good concert from a great one. As the doctor and myself hit the wet Buffalo pavement, after Laura had bestowed her final encore, “Midnight Blue,” I knew Nyro’s enigmatic elan had somehow managed to pull things back together. C.P. Farkas - Uncola man sparkles, fizzles — He was a peer of both Bob Dylan and Joan Baez, who each performed several of Ochs’ songs. Ochs preferred to call himself a “topical singer,” as opposed to a folksinger. By the time he started playing professionally in Greenwich Village, Ochs had a repertoire of more than 60 songs, all containing social commentary or question. With the waning of the peace movement in the seventies,.Ochs changed his style to that of a “rock and roll Buddy Holly,” with little commercial success. He fell from the public view and had remained in obscurity Ochs was bom in El Paso, Texas, and moved with his family to New York when he was a few year old. He grew up in Far Rockaway and wasassociated with New York throughout his life. into a powerful and soulful moan.

GARY WRIGHT PAUL SIMON BRASS CONSTRUCTION This faith in the power of the improv, coupled with the performer’s strong dislike of the American spirit of spectatorship (and Holder’s pantomime of the typical specimen, with his imaginary boob tube and handful of potato chips, is devastating), led to an atmosphere closer to that of a larger living room than a small theater. most Coaxing and sometimes intimidating of the audience into clapping along, holding hands, throwing out questions, and even dancing in the aisles and onstage. Holder worked toward an intimacy with his listeners which few other, entertainers would think of trying for. And it worked: by the end of nearly two uninterrupted hours, he was breathless and perspiring, but he had the whole audience on its feet, cheering with him.

The striptease parody which ended the performance, during which Holder’s surreal burlesque queen peeled down to and past her wig and contact lenses, was a perfect pairing of both forms, and stopped the show. “I am stark, raving mad,” Holder announced at one point in the show, “and I don’t intend to change for no one.” If insanity is the necessary ingredient in the multi-faceted magic of his performance, then long may he rave. - - — - - - EXPLOSION!!!

There are great filmmakers who are horrid entertainers, and great entertainers whose films, as films, are monstrous. Treading that line is an art in itself. Alfred Hitchcock, long tagged “The Master or Suspense,” is ironically famed for the least important of his masteries. His film artistry is that of an impeccable craftsman, with half a century of service to his credit (Hitchcock is 76), who is still excited by what he does. As a maker of movies that intelligently amuse, his peers have always been few, and never more so than in these days of creeping profundity. Family Plot in particular gives the lie to Hitchcock’s popular tag, and spotlights what may be his greatest gifts; his taloned grasp of black comedy, and his skill in juxtaposing the mundane and It’s hardly as intriguing.

That search soon entagles them with a jeweler and his wife Devane and Karen (William Black), whose kicks come from kidnapping public figures for jewel ransoms. To tell more than that would be peeking. The director’s own interest keeps peering out in the dotty, irreverent moments he keeps sneaking in without particular emphasis. No fan of macabre humor should miss the scene of a young denim-clad, gum-chewing girl cutting a headstone to Top 40 radio blare, and Dem absently knocking his pipe on a grave marker. For straighter social commentary, take the husband who brings his four children Wednesday, 14 April straight from Sunday School to a roadside bar where he’s t meet his mistress. There’s one very harrowing sequence in the film: a runaway car ride down a mountainside, with the hood-mounted camera threatening to take you over the edge like the Wild Mouse. Even this, though, is dovetailed with humor: Harris’ entwining herself on Dem, thwarting his efforts to keep control.

Ann is on her own now, and has everything under control. The group introduced their new composition entitled “Buffalo,” but I don’t know if Buffalo was ready for it. Brass Construction sang most of the songs that are on their new hit album, Brass Construction, all of which purposely have a one-word title; “Movin,” “Peekin,” “Changing,” “Love,” “Talking” and “Dance.” All of the songs talk about something we do in our everyday lives. When asked why the one word titles Randy Muller, the group’s arranger, vocalist and instrumentalist replied, “We try to make our songs simple and interesting. We want to leave their interpretations up to the individual. Music lends itself to multi-interpretations because it’s an open medium and we want to promote universal harmony.” Love-peace i B.C. tauntingly teased the audience when they ended the song entitled, “Love,” by whispering love-peace-love-peace. It demanded your attention so Page twelve The Spectrum Wednesday, 14 April 1976 . . that you had to receive “some” kind of message. The orchestra was missed when they sang “Peekin;” it would have been an even greater pleasure if they had come to Buffalo also. During the one hour and eight-minute performance, the entire group consisting of nine energetic brothers, who never stopped dancing, even while introducing themselves! The last song of the evening, “Movin,” elevated the drowd to its ultimate peek. As B.C. and the audience tried to Bus Stop everyone cried, “Don’t Stop, Keep it Up,” and “Non Stop Bust Stop.” B.C. has been together about seven years. Most of the group went to junior high school together in Brooklyn, N.Y. Two other members are from the West Indies, and Randy the arranger of the group is originally from Guyana, Venezuala, but has been a resident of Brooklyn since the age of ten. Incidentally Randy also writes music and arranges for many other performers, one noteworthy group being B.T. Express. The name of the group reflects the “brass” instruments, and construction relates to something positively put together, “constructed.” B.C. has some ideas for a new album; 1 think they gave us a sneak preview when they sang a new song entitled “Cha Cha.” When the group left Buffalo they went on to Madison Square Garden to play with Rufus. Even though this is Brass Construction’s firstalbum, something tells me the world will hear a lot more from them. A lot of people had complaints that one hour and eight minutes wasn’t enough for their money. Their thirst was unquenchable. But I think the reason behind this is that good black entertainment comes to Buffalo much too rarely. — �Golden State Warriors are favored in the NBA playoffs -*H Staff Writer The “real” season begins for in teams the National Basketball Association this week as the championship playoffs get underway. Last year’s defending Golden State champs, the Warriors, should waltz right into the finals as the representative from the West. In the East, however, Boston and Washington will face stiff challenges from Cleveland, Buffalo or Philadelphia, each of which has played well over .500 ball this season. In the Eastern Division of the Eastern Conference, the 76ers and the Braves will play a best 2 out of 3 series to decide who plays Boston in the quarterfinals. This should be a close series between two inconsistent teams that can beat anybody when they’re right. Philadelphia, with the home-court edge, is lead by George McGinnis, Doug Collins and Fred “Mad Dog” Carter. They are very explosive but their youth and undisciplined “run and gun” style of play will hamper them if they 1 get by the Braves. ten Braves erratic puzzle The Braves, a throughout the season, boast tremendous personnel in Bob McAdoo, Randy Smith, Jim McMillan and John Schumate, but rarely play as well as they should. Along with their pitifully weak bench, they seem to be lacking someone to take charge in crucial situations and control the team. The Braves have lost numerous crucial games this season in the last minutes, and that lack of character just won’t do in the playoffs. whom are excellent rebounders and defenders. Golden State will have no trouble with the winner of the Pistons-Bucks series, and should continue on to beat the winner of the Phoenix-Seattle 4 Washington Bullets have won the by Ira Brush man Spectrum t t? They have two big men in Cliff Ray and George Johnson, both of Central Division crown. Thie Cleveland Cavaliers are that team and they are no fluke. They are a team without a star, although they had seven players who averaged in double figures for the season. The Cavaliers rely strictly on outside shooting (which defies the laws of winning basketball), but they have the guns and are very successful, as their 49-33 record indicates. The Cavs have excellent depth in the backcourt as Austin Carr, Jim Cleamons, Dick Snyder shooting percentage (highest guard in history of NBA) and “Footsie” Walker all see a lot of action. Up front they have “Bingo” Smith and Campy Russell, two more bombers, and hard-working, the excellent-rebounding Jim Brewer, form the backbone of the team. Jim Chones and Nate Thurmond split the center duties where the Cavs are weakest. The Cavs are also the second leading defensive team in the NBA. Their fans are among the most enthusiastic and will make the Bullets sorry that they didn’t manage to come in first place and thereby gain the home-court edge. The Bullets undoubtedly are blessed with the best talent in the NBA. Their starting five is a virtual all-star team (Wes Unseld, Elvin Hayes, Phil Chenier, Dave Bing and “Truck” Robinson), and they also have an excellent bench, led by Jimmy Jones, Mike Riordan and Nick Witherspoon. When the Bullets traded for Dave Bing it appeared they had traded for a championship, but it took all season for Bing to blend in. The Bullets seemed to have hit their stride after the All-Star break, but in the closing games, they lost their rhythm and first place. They seem to have trouble setting up a patterned offense, and unless coach K.C. Jones gets them ready, they’ll have a lot of trouble with the Cavaliers. Whoever plays the Celtics in the quarter finals will be a decided underdog. The Celtics smell the championship this year and would love nothing more than to send the retiring Don Nelson put in a blaze of glory.

To The Sons and Daughters of Israel Everywhere G-d Bless You All! Greetings and Blessing The Hebrew name of a festival, or of an historic event or anything, which is given by the Torah, or instituted by sacred Jewish custom, which also has the force of Torah expresses a basic content of the festival or of the thing, as explained in many sources. the The same applies to the name Chag haPesach festival of this month. may it bring us and all our Jewish — - - people goodness and blessing. In this instance, it is even more emphatically underscored by the fact that in T'NaCh, as well as in the festival prayers and benedictions, the festival is called "Chag haMatzos", yet it is universally accepted, as a of Pesach, matter of Jewish custom, to call it the Festival or simply Pesach Considering that Pesach is the "Head of the Festivals" the first and foremost of all our festivals; and the month of Nissan, in which it occurs and constitutes its central this further point, is the "Head of the Months", emphasizes the significance and content of the name - - "Pesach" for all the festivals and for the whole year. All the more so, since we are required to remember Yatzias Mitzraim (the Liberation from Egypt), which is at of Our the heart of Zman Cheiruseinu (the Festival Freedom), the essence of Pesach every day importance ■ for every Jew. The meaning of the word "Pesach" is indicated in the Torah, in the words: Ufosach HaShem "G-d will pass over, literally, leap over." Rashi explains it even more explicitly: "Pesach is so all the called because of the leap. . and you perform religious duties connected with it (the Pesach offering) in a - manner of leaping and springing". Why is Yetzias Mitzraim specifically bound up with leaping and springing? One explaination is as follows Yetzias Mitzraim is the experience of liberation and exodus from Mitzraim. For many generations Jews had lived in Egypt until they found themselves in a state of slavery, and the enslavement reached such a degree that, as our Sages of blessed memory relate, there were Jews who did not wish such was the depths of slavishness to to leave Egypt which they had degenerated. Egypt, in those days, was the most highly developed country in respect of science, technology, philosophy, etc. all those things which the world commonly considers as - - "culture" and "civilization." It was also the super power of the world. - Hence it' is clear that in order to extricate themselves from such an extreme state of Egyptian bondage and reach out for the other extreme of complete cheirus real to a state of receiving the (including inner) freedom Torah with the wholhearted readiness of naasah (and then) v'nishma, namely, accepting G-d's Torah and Mitzvos unconditionally, even before knowing fully their significance - this called for, as indeed it was, the greatest possible "leap", a Pesach "in a manner of leaping and - ■ - springing." • / And this leap was accomplished while they were still in Egypt, as described in the Torah: On Rosh Chodesh Nissan G-d told Moshe to speak to the whole community of the Jewish people about the Pesach, in all detail, including as metioned above, that all its rites be carried out in a manner of leaping and springing, and Culminating on the night of the 15th of Nissan, when "G-d passed over" (literally, "leaped over") and revealed Himself to them in His full Glory, when they were still in Egypt, and delivered them from bondage to freedom. Herein is contained a basic concept of Jews and Yiddishkeit which is valid at all times and in all places: Though Jews are in Golus. in exile in a materialistic world, and to some extent also in a crass world, and are a minority in quantity; Likewise also in the personal life, where the time given to material aspects (eating, drinking, sleeping, business, etc.) is quantitatively greater than the time devoted to spiritual aspects; Torah, prayer, Mitzvos Nevertheless, it is expected of every Jew that he, or she, should rise above all matters of Golus and leap over to a state of true freedom, to the highest level of Geulo, even while being externally in Golus. Indeed, every Jew, man or woman, has the assurance that the necessary powers have been given him, or her, to make this leap powers given by G-d Himself. The said teaching applies, as mentioned, both when it is "day" as well as when it is "night” both for one who is in a state of true light, as well as for one who, for various reasons, is in a state of darkness. In the former case, Pesach reminds one and demands, that even when one is on a highly illuminated plane, one must not remain stationary, but must strive for a still higher level, using the past achievement as a springboard for a leap to a higher plane. And one who is in a lowly state is urgently reminded not to remain in that position r but leap out of it to attain Geulo even a mome and true freer And in both cases as well as for all those who are in the intermediate stages - this radical change for the better is achieved through "serving G-d on this mountain,” in the spirit of maaseh v'nishma, through the study of Torah and doing Mitzvos in the daily life. And, as mentioned above, everyone receives, in this effort, the help of G-d, Who "works salvations in the midst of the earth" (in the depths of earthliness). May G-d grant that this "Pesach-leap" be carried out and achieved in a state of cheirus (true freedom), which includes freedom from all things that interfere with achieving the purpose of man's life, So that it be a worthy life, a life in harmony with the Divine intention. And the cheirus of everyone individually, the personal Geulo while still in Golus, will hasten the realization of the cheirus of the totality of Jews everywhere, and bring about the fulfilment of the promise: 'The 'horns' (strength and glory) o. the Tzaddik (the righteous) shall be uplifted", which, as explained by our Sages, refer to the Glories, including the crowning Glory of our ten Righteous Moshiach,, at the true and complete Geulo speedily in our time. — - ■ ' Yet, at the same time, the land was sunken in the of moral depravity, as is known from various sources, so much so that it.is referred to in the Tprah as the "abomination of the earth." And from this quagmire of Egyptian bondage, as from Egypt itself, the Jews had to extricate themselves and go out with an "outstreched arm,” completely tree, both physically and spiritually. And directly thereafter, in a very short time, to rise to the highest spiritual plane to receive the Torah, Which was the goal of Yetzias Mitzraim, as the Torah states."(G-d told Moshe) when you lead the people out of Egypt, you will serve G-d on this mountain (Sinai)”, to receive the Torah With all its Mitzvos, beginning with the Tan Commandments, The first of which are: I am G-d your G-d and You shall have no other gods, meaning, that G-d is One and Unique and there can be no other gods of any kind: And the Tenth Commandment is You shall not covet. . . anything that belongs to others, meaning, that not only must one not take away anything belonging to others, but one must not even desire it. These two concepts the oneness and unity of the Creator and the highest level in the relationship to fellow-man represent the complete and absolute contrast to, and negation of, the so-called "culture" of Egypt (in those days and similar cultures ever since). abyss - (1) Seattle and Phoenix prevailed in a torrid race with Los Angeles for the two remaining playoff spots in the West.

They are essentially a lame duck intercollegiate team. When Student Association (SA) moved last month to eliminate the varsity status for track, cross country and fencing, the track Bulls were left with a 1976 schedule and nothing else. This lack of a future has caused unusual problems for the track Bulls this season. In the year’s opening meet, they were bombed by Fredonia 109-38. (Niagara also competed, and scored 19 points.) The Bulls appear to be just going through the motions of. competition, and not giving the all out effort normally required. Heinen explained, “It’s hard for me to get all the players together and it’s hard for me to really get the feel of the team.” As far as the squad is concerned, many of the walkons which the Bulls have' come to rely on to round out their team have not surfaced, and the stars of the team are devoting less time to training and more to searching for school they can attend next year that will have a track program.

Based on this poor showing, Sub Board’s Board of Directors then cut all the committees’ budgets in the area of anticipated income. Schleidlinger explained that some of his committee’s deficits were because “it entered into more co-sponsorship things at increased costs.” He added that tickets were as low, if not lower, than last year’s. Schleidlinger also claims that some of the deficit is attributable to the rental of off-campus facilities, including Shea’s Buffalo Theater. He explained that the areas used on campus for concerts were inadequate, and that he was trying to improve the usual standards. Many artists who have performed at Clark Hall have indeed stated they would never perform there again because of the poor acoustics. — It is “highly unlikely” that there will be any University Union Activities Board (UUAB) events this summer other than a few already scheduled films, according to Sub Board Acting Treasurer Arthur Lalonde. Lalonde cited mismanagement of funds by the chairpeople of the various UUAB committees as the main reason behind the probable cancellation of such regular summer activities as outdoor movies, coffeehouses, and poetry readings. Lalonde singled out the Music Committee as this year’s top loser, projecting that by the end of the spring semester, it will be $9000 in the red. He noted that together with the Film Committee, Music has traditionally generated the most income of all the UUAB functions. Other committees are expected to accumulate debts of up to $3000 by the end of the fiscal year, he said. - Most of the Music Committee’s financial difficulties were attributed to Chairman Robbie Scgleidlinger, whom Lalonde called “irresponsible.” Charging that Schleidlinger greatly overstepped his budget, Lalonde said that there was little he could do to make up for past expenditures, since he only took over the Treasurer’s post last month. Summer not priority When asked whether he could choose between better concert accomodations or activities for the summer, Schleidlinger stated that summer entertainment has “never been a full time priority.” Besides, he added, his job is “not to judge expenditures, but just to program activities.” He stated that financial considerations are all made by Sub board. He also stated that students, who are required to pay mandatory student fees over the summer, “absolutely” have the right to enjoy summer festivities. Lalonde stressed the fact that all students must pay a $7.50 per summer session, and this fee is included in the following year’s anticipated income budget. Thus, fact contributing to the winter entertainment budget, without benefiting themselves. Lalonde and another well-placed Sub Board spokesman said that until last summer, there had rarely been any substantial amount of UUAB summer activities on campus. Then Michael Philips came into the Treasurer’s position and turned a $60,000 deficit into a $10,000 summer students are in profit by May J.975, thus enabling a summer program to move into action “Made the summer’ The summer program was a tremendous success, according to the Sub Board spokesman, who credited UUAB Director David Benders with most of the planning. Benders was unavailable for comment. Several times a week, folk singers would perform —continued on page 6 — Restoration of SUSfunds to besought by SUNY The State University is making restoration of State eliminated in the University Scholarship (SUS) funds budget passed by the legislature last month the number one priority in its supplemental budget request this month. This was one of several topics discussed at an informal luncheon Thursday in Norton Hall with student editors from SUNY schools in Western New York and Russ Gugino, assisant to -the SUNY Vice Chancellor for University Affairs. Regional luncheons this spring will pre-empt the usual Albany press conference with Chancellor Ernest Boyer, who is recovering from The last hope for obtaining these funds is in the supplemental budget request in April, which is one of only three times during the year when a state agency can obtain money from the state. The supplemental budget has traditionally been used to fund things which were neglected in the regular state budget, which is usually passed in March. Last year, for example, the University of Buffalo obtained a $304,000 supplemental budget allocation to restore what would have been a disasterous cut in library acquisitions. mononuclecfSs. Fee referendum postponed In other matters, Gugino disclosed that a SUNY-wide referendum on whether to retain the mandatory student activity fee has been postponed pending a re-drafting of the guidelines which govern the use of the fee by the SUNY Board of Trustees. Many individual campuses have already had fee referenda recently, and therefore are unaffected by the postponement. In the meantime, the Trustees will attempt to rewrite the guidelines in the light of the recent report of the SUNY Mandatory Fee Task Force, which made several recommendations. Gugino, who was a task force member, indicated that the Task Force’s two most controversial recommendations made would not be forwarded to the Trustees for consideration. — - Gugino said that although the supplemental budget Cot SUMY this year is expected to be small, restoration of the SUS money is necessary because of the 10,000 SUNY graduate and professional students with yearly incomes below $4800 who depend on it. Graduate school tuition at SUNY is currently $ 1.600 a year. The maximum award granted und6r the Tuition Assitance Plan (TAP) is $600. TAP is usually supplemented by the taxpayer supported SUS funds, and frequently make up a large part of the Test of a student’s tuition. SUS money can cover the entire tuition charge when the maximum TAP incentive is awarded. When the Legislature approved Governor Carey’s Executive Budget, however, graduate students on full TAP- SUS scholarships found they would no longer be able to afford the cost of school. It was also feared that minority students would be particularly hard hit. The two recommendations had asked that the existing fee guidelines be rewritten to explicitly permit using the fee to fund “student organizations or corporations,” and to fund activities involving “advocacy or expression or views or opinions . . . providing that these funds are not used in support of an extra campus political committee, party or candidate.” Four criteria Existing guidelines governing the use of student activity fees do not specify that funds may be used for student corporations or for activities involving expression of views or opinions. The guidelines only require that fees be used for activities of an “educational, recreational, cultural or social nature.” Because the wording of the guidelines is vague, the Task Force sought to clarify them and determine the extent to which so-called political activities may be funded. Controversy over interpretation of the guidelines has occurred from time to time since their passage in 1970, At that time, local campus presidents were given review power over what was previously unsupervised spending of activity fee money by student governments. Debate over the use of student activity fee money has often centered around the student’s freedom to use mandatory fee money as they see fit and the University's responsibility to ensure that the fees are used in accordance with the SUNY guidelines. j �m •J t "S ‘ [f*r I . . V ' Peng ousted f f Ki;jy Major shakeup in China's leadership by Rob Cohen Contributing Editor In a major shakeup of Chinese leadership, Teng Hsiao Peng was ousted from his post of Prime Minister last week to be replaced by a lesser known figure, Hua Keo Fung. The ouster was followed by a massive march in Peking’s Tien An Mien square Tuesday hailing the leadership change. Sings of an impending shakeup were visible for the past several months. Poster campaigns in radically oriented Shanghai and other cities contained veiled and later overt attacks on the Prime Minister, denouncing him as a reactionary and a “capitalist reader,” Later these slander campaigns assumed semi-official sanction through disparaging remarks about Teng, attributed to Chairman Mao Tse Tung. Mao was quoted by the daily Jenmin Jih Pao as saying that Teng, “the pre-eminent moderate leader, might retain his post qnly jfi he repented properly for his bourgeois ways, and underwant a thorough re-education process.” Exile then reemergence Teng was purged along with many other moderate bureaucrats including the then premier, Luo Shao Chi during the Cultural Revolution of the late ’60’s. After admitting the error of his ways, Teng vanished from the political scene, exiled to a life of ideological rehabilitation. His startling reemergence, which has baffled even the most seasoned China watchers, was engineered by the lat Chou En Lai who wished to ensure an orderly succession to the country’s top govemmcnMl post. What, surprised the Sino experts even more was the fact that Teng’s reappearance was accomplished without the faintest of grumblings from the leftist factions which brought about his original-downfall. Even when he became acting Prime Minister, filling in for .the ailing j Chou, the left retrained mute. J ; Reputation for gluttony jsL, All of this changed, however, soon after Chou En Lai’s death. The radicals who had been gagged by Chou’s continued presence, now felt totally unrestrained and unleashed a barrage of acrimonious slander denouncing Teng for his anti-revolutionary dogma and bourgeois attitudes whiph included a reputation for gluttony. Before his purging, Teng was noted for his discriminating tastes, frequenting the finest “\ ' restaurants in Peking. |j/raV Teng’s pragmatism and non-ideological apprpith Were .pounced upon by his radical detractors who goaded upon fiis • notorious utterance, “It doesn’t matter whether a cat is black or white, both catch the same mice.”. Teng reacted to this flood of embittered resentment by presenting an extremely low profile. The moderate factions backing Tdng took the attacks silently, ifailing to strike back until just recently. * « _ : Political anomaly When Chou died, political analysts were positive that Teng would be named to the premier’s post, despite the strident opposition. When Hua Kuo Feng, an obscure member of The Politburo was named instead, everyone was taken by surprise. This instance demonstrates the impossibility of forecasting, let alone analysing Chinese internal politics. The People’s Republic is a political anomaly. Teng, however, remained deputy prime minister and was still an influential member of the Politburo. His setback did not placate the insatiable radicals who . were committed to the execution of his downfall. They increased the intensity of their attacks, now that they had chalked up one victory. Without the confidence of the Chairman, Teng was now doomed. Demonstrations staged by moderates last week, ostensibly in tribute to Chou En Lai, were the first concrete show of support for Teng. Posters were put up indirectly attacking China’s leading radical: Mao’s wife, Chiang Ching. The demonstrators went so far as to call the legitimacy of Mao’s leadership into question, something unprecedented in the history of the People’s Republic. Remarkably the rallies went on, uninterfered with. The heated political situation spurred Mao and the Politburo into swift action, facilitating Teng’s demise. It remains to be seen whether his moderate allies will go the same route. GMAT MCAT . CPAT • LSAT .VAT • .GRE Unified student government by Diane Gitlin Spectrum Staff Writer A Council of Student Governments (CSG), comprised of executive committee members from the five major student associations, was officially formed Monday to facilitate a unified student effort on such issues as budgtary cutbacks. “The administration can no longer continue to use its strategy of divide and conquer,” said Student Association (SA) President Steve Schwartz. “Now, when a problem arises with a section of the students at this campus, they can get help from the other student governments. Unified, the entire student body can work together to solve their problems.” The State University at Buffalo is the fourth SUNY center to form a CSG. Albany, Stony Brook and Binghamton already have similar organizations. The four CSG’s plan to form a coalition to represent SUNY students in Albany. Twenty representatives from the organizations will meet for two days at Stony Brook beginning May 1 to discuss budgetary cuts and determine a plan of action. Fiscal research The major concerns over the budget cutbacks has induced the CSG’s to begin research into the state fiscal situation. Gary Welborn, a former senator of the Graduate Student Association (GSA) and an active member of the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) here, is studying this problem. “By the end of this summer,” said GSA Administrative Vice President George Carly, “we plan to provide suggestions to the SUNY Board of Trustees.” The CSG on this campus intends to tackle other problems affecting the students here. It has already expressed discontent over an administration offer of only six student seats on the 16-member Parcel B Advisory Board. The CSG feels that students will be under-represented. The idea to form a coalition of student governments was originally part of the Progressive Student Alliance (PSA) platform presented during GSA’s Executive Committee election. The new GSA Executive Committee invited executives of the GSA, SA, Millard Fillmore College SA, Dental Student Association and Student Bar Association to a March 31 meeting to discuss student problems caused by the budget cutbacks and tuition increases. Executives at this meeting expressed a desire to meet regularly and to cooperate on issues affecting students at this University. CSP replaced The CSG has replaced the Council of Student Presidents tCSP), a coalition of only the student association presidents. The CSP was established three years ago during former- SA president Jon Dandes’ administration to plan unified action in Sub Board. CSG has an informal structure and no constitution, said Schwartz. It meets regularly on Mondays and reaches decisions by consensus. GSA President Patricia Ley, who was the major thrust behind the CSG, chairs the meetings. Asked his opinion of CSG, Schwartz replied, “I think it’s a great idea It will be a powerful body with the administration and faculty.” in dealing Schwartz, Ley and Carlo have all expressed high hopes for the CSG’s future success. CSG may also invite the Nursing and Pharmacy Student Associations to join. ... MASS MEETING .SAT • Over 38 years of experience and success. Small classes. Voluminous home study materials.

Can you see them?” “Are they ready to, come in? Tell them to make it quick, they’ll be calling us down to vote any minute,” a voice replied curtly. “No, they aren’t quite in the office yet. They’re still outside telling each other not to be nervous.” Pause. “Then how do you know they’re lobbyists?” “I’ve been around here a long time.

Finally, Chupka intimated to the female participants that, should a legislator make a pass at them, they shouldn’t feel SASU’s reputation will be tarnished forever if they turn it down. “Use your judgement” was her advice. “We range from radicals to facists here,” commented State Assemblyman William Hoyt to SASU one representative. Probably the most important skill a lobbyist must develop, along with the long-distance running, is the ability to face both extremes and all the variations in between and keep smiling. — welcome bach Graphically Exciring— — Over 250 Pages Con24 Pages of Photos Including Many in Full Color, 44 Songs Plus Special Lyric Section. taining LAW SCHOOL INTERVIEWS Of Prospective Law Students A Representative of the College of Law UNIVERSITY OF SAN FERNANDO VALLEY The school is fully accredited by the Committee of Bar Examiners of the State Bar of California and has officially applied for approval by the American Bar Association.

The Court ruled against Martin Alevy of Brooklyn, who claimed he was rejected by Brooklyn’s Downstate Medical Center, while allegedly less-qualified minority students were accepted. The decision, which was unanimous, upheld decisions of lower courts against Alevy. The medical school argued that, in an attempt to provide better medical service to the large numbers of blacks and Puerto Ricans in the nearby community, its admissions officers carefully scanned minority members’ applications for financial or educational disadvantages. detrimental effects, and if such goals cannot be achieved by a “less objectionable” means, such as granting special consideration to the poor rather than to particular groups. Downstate Medical Center, a unit of SUNY, received 6300 applications last year for 216 positions. It eventually accepted 475 (assuming more than half of its accepted students would go to other schools that had accepted them), including 66 minority group members. A first waiting list contained 131 applicants, and Alevy was 84th on a second waiting list. Alevy claimed that his scoring average on admissions tests was higher than all of the minority students who were admitted. The court tound, however, that it was likely Alevy would not have been accepted even if no minority applicants had been admitted.

Monday, 12 April 1976 Music Committee Lalonde said the Music Committee is in particular trouble. He predicts that the upcoming Bob Marley and the Whalers concernt will put the Committee further in debt. To date, the Music Committee has brought in profits of $33,000, as opposed to the expected $38,000 in the middle of April. In order to break even, the Bob Marley concert must net at least $14,000. Lalonde predicts that the concert might yield _$4000, while Schleidlinger figures a more optimistic $6000. Lalonde says that if his figures, which he terfns “realistic,” are accurate, “students will have paid $10,000 for nothing.” Even if the concert was cancelled, there would be a loss of $7000. He said the reason the contract for the concert was originally signed by then Sub Board Treasurer Bruce Campbell was because had Schleidlinger promised that the Sonny Rollins concert last month, which was originally scheduled for Clark Hall, would being in $5000. Instead, the concert was held in the Century Theater and brought in $3300. The Film Committee is also in debt now, Lalonde said. Its anticipated income was $48,000, and at this point, the Committee has only brought in $33,000. That means that in order fo; the Film Committee to clear up all its expenses, it must, in one month, bring in half of what it had already gained in eight months. Lalonde stressed that this year’s anticipated income figures are not unrealistic based on last year’s records. Not as many people have been going to the films on campus this year, he said. The Sub Board spokesman said that there should have been a special appropriation set aside for summer activities. Next year, he said, he hopes there will be. , PROBLEM PREGNANCY?

Page seven . �Outside Editorial by Clem Colucci Shortsightedness Last summer, UUAB and the Office of Student Affairs coordinated one of the most exciting activites' schedules ever put together at this University. This year, due to shortsighted planning and careless management of funds on the part of several UUAB Committee chairpersons, summer school students may not have outdoor coffeehouses, movies, folksingers, or poetry readings to look forward to at the end of a long, hot day. Much of the problem stems from the fact that many Committees, particularly the two big money makers, Music and Film, spent their budgets freely this year on the basis of anticipated income that was never realized. By the time summer rolls around, many will have used up their entire budgets, and some will find themselves thousands of dollars in the red. This leaves no money for summer programming, as well as possible problems in balancing UUAB's budget in time for the Sub Board hearings in July. If Sub Board and UUAB cannot come up with additional money from unused lines to cover the cost of events in June, July, and August, then students who may be paying up to $15 in mandatory fees for the summer will be gypped out of activities they rightfully deserve. Should this come to pass, as spokespersons for Sub board feel it might, the blame will rest with irresponsible UUAB committee heads for their failure to set aside sufficient funds. Music Committee Chairman Robbie Schleidlinger's answer, that his job is "not to judge expenditures, but just to program activities/' does not make him any less culpable but rather affirms a thoughtless hadling of funds; his job as chairman, by definition, means that he will be responsible for watching his budget. Once he saw that concerts were losing money or even falling short of the projected income, he should have eased off on future spending to ensure that the money would hold out through the summer. It is unfortunate that summer school students may have suffer without the activities that make the summer so to pleasant just because people in positions of authority did not use foresight in planning. UUAB and Sub Board must make this clear to the students they pick to head the committees for next year. The Spectrum In coking Someone at the Democratic National Committee is obviously lacking in vision. This, of course, is hardly surprising; indeed, the opposite would be an almost fatal shock. But the Democrats have a real shot at the White House this year and they’re blowing it. The alleged “front runners” are all dying. Jimmy Carter has Anally managed to work his foot through his teeth and into his mouth with his recent defense of “ethnic purity” in the neighborhoods. Henry Jackson is busy proving that Gerald Ford is not the worst orator in American politics. And after an early start, Morris Udall’s voter recognition is still so low that if everyone who didn’t confuse him with his brother Stewart voted for him, he still couldn’t win. As for Hubert must we? The race started out with about a dozen candidates in a fairly impressive Held. Now all of them, and most of their support, money, and machinery, are gone. If they could somehow have pooled their resources and talents, the ticket would have been unbeatable. The solution is almost painfully obvious. Eugene McCarthy showed the way by announcing his choice for Vice President and promising to reveal his Cabinet choices as soon as they are settled. This is* just the approach the Democrats need- Instead of fragmenting their forces and spreading their support all over the ideological and geographical map, the Democrats should run not a Presidential candidate, but an All-Star team, a complete government, President, Vice President, Cabinet, the works. If Coach Strauss is watching, I have the draft choices made up. - Hubert Humphrey (Minnesota); President: A proven vote-getter and acceptable to the party mainstream. For the sake of unity he must agree to serve only one term and Step aside in 1980. Only one candidate has those qualifications and wants the Presidency enough to submit to such humiliating conditions.

The team is powerful and well-balanced, appealing to every traditional Democratic voting bloc: labor, blacks, the young and the intellectuals, Catholics, and Jews. Every region of the country is represented. The ticket includes Protestants, a Mormon, a Catholic, a Jew, and several who worship votes. It’s a can’t lose proposition. If the team gets into spring training soon, it should be able to whip anyone the Republicans send up in November.

I feel that Robert Dowrey, in his Guest Opinion in The Spectrum on April 7, is trying to rationalize the merits of the “sport” of hunting, as so many hunters'are apt to do. Mr. Dowrey states "... I don’t consider myself a sadist. I consider hunting to be a relaxing sport where I can be with nature.” This is clearly a contradiction. There is a certain perversity involved in the desire to kill a living creature for the purpose of relaxation. Isn’t it more healthy, and kind, to relax through nature “armed” only with a camera or binoculars? Mr. Dowrey also implies that hunting is a more viable solution to reducing animal over-population than nature’s population control. As many hunters have previously stated, he believes that letting nature take its course, as in such disabling diseases as mange and distemper, is much more cruel than dying from a hunter's bullets. What of the many animals who have been wounded by hunters? Aren’t their lingering deaths as painful or as inhumane as any disease that nature could ever have dealt out? Hunters often criticize anti-hunters as being over-emotional as far as animals are concerned. 1 believe that it is the lack of emotionality on the hunter’s part that shows that hunting is wrong. If hunters arc such great conservationists, as they claim to be, only doing their duty for the environment and wildlife, why- do they enjoy the killing of an animal so much? It is time that human beings recognize that animals have feelings too. Just because they can’t express them doesn’t mean that they don’t exist. , Iris Schifren Monday. 12 April 1976 Vol. 26, No. 75 Editor-in-Cliiaf Amy Dunkin - College controlled rooms Managing Editor Richard Korman Gerry Me Keen Advertising Manager - - ...

If I wrote that groups with the most power are the most thoroughly indoctrinated and the most apolitical, 1 might alienate even more people, but it’s the truth. It takes thought, and work, and examination of the premises and the real beneficiaries of our mass attitude. (Hint; Who benefits most from our capitalist system?) We are not a “potential” power on this cathpus; we are here and without this examination we will continue to be manipulated through attitudes which have been fostered in us and which were never meant for our benefit, or for the benefit of society as a whole. , Joan Niertit In Mr. Patel’s letter of Wednesday, April 7, there were some inferences made that my letter of April 5 was a racist attack upon the foreign students of this University.

I’m sure, the Frampton/Geils concert was in thfc Aud, before 14,000 peopfe. Kleinhan’s held some type of classic recital on Wednesday. But now I have two questions for Mr. C.P. Farkus: Were you reviewing the Frampton Live Show (as the headline suggests) or Frampton Comes Alive? Indeed, I agree FCA is intended to be for the non-cultists who now can have his greatest hits. What about the Eagles; Four albums and they top release their “Greatest Hits." hat’s not the artists doing; it is the record company who will drain any “star” for all it can. You put Frampton down saying “his music is now as safe and challenging as a G-rated picture drafted by Disney” well, man, that’s his style!! Why do all rock and rollers have to be "Mean Mothers.” We have enough “X-rated” groups around J. Geils now, don’t we? (Arrosmith, Kiss : & themselves) And you ask why has “constant touring and five albums . . . finally brought Peter to the summit.” Put two and two together, dummy! If the man tours long enough -and the crowd likes his music they're going to buy his albums! You may say Frampton is looking toward the AM crowd now, but he did it without any hype (ala Springsteen & Bay City Rollers goody, goody). The money is in AM, but I really don’t think too many of his FM cult have felt FCA "has left a cancerous blotch.” It's purpose is to try to recreate live Frampton Which brings ns to one more, final (I hope) point. You say the audience screams “as if they were Well that’s part of primed with amphetamine . . the “live concept Frampton is the show, complete with moving around while playing and leading the audience in handclapping and yelling, asking the crowd to join in!

One nice thing about such a situation as I have been in this evening, however. I am somehow able to indulge my pettiness without feeling guilty. I mean, it is hard for a bona fide guilt freak to indulge being mean. I get anxious about whether it is “all right" to put a request in for a book that someone has just requested out from under me. thus limiting whoever it is to the two weeks that they just limited me to. As my boss pointed out to me earlier today when I was admitting that I sometimes get prickly, sometimes the I gets lost. (Stay with it, it’s a little anglo-saxon but it’s there.) I wonder if I should take off this nice new typewriter ribbon? And find myself idly wondering if the new dude will get a shock when he tries to take down her fancy light fixture and shade.

I feel that the presence of the foreign student can be looked upon as an asset to the University community; providing both parties with an opportunity to learn about each other. This can be a viable means of cultural exchange. However. I have come here to learn as much, academically, as possible and I cannot expect to if my teachers and I are unable to communicate well.

Well, what else can the state do to anybody, that it hasn’t already? The Cavages-Coop ridiculousness has gone to the State Supreme Court. There, my friends, is a circus and a half. Suppose the Court, in its infinite wisdom and constant good feelings towards the working class of capitalists, should decide that Cavages is indeed being deprived of its rightful profit margin because of competition supported in part by state monies. Does it not follow therefrom that if the Blue Galaxy, Your Host, and Super Duper join together and protest the existence of the food servic since it obviously reduces the profits they might otherwise make, that we shall have to close down the food service?

Next, a coalition of all the stores which sell books, from Buffalo Textbook all the way down to K very mans including the drugstores shall immediately rise up and claim unfair competiton based on the low rent and superior location of the University Bookstore.

In a master stroke inspired by an evil genius I had nothing to do with it Canisius, Rosary Hill, Medaille College, Niagara, et al, file a complaint that the State has no business being in the education business in the first place since quite clearly such use of state funds to promote education is unfair competition with small struggling schools who only have the Catholic church to back them up.

Given the complexity of the laws dealing with selling things, the rights of social organizations, and the hack of a constitutional guarantee to select where you wish to do business and how much profit you arc automatically entitled to at any given location, something can be done.

Mr. Oechsle stated that CAC agreed to give Friday's Theatre S2000.00 to “bail out” the production of “Bye Bye Birdie.” Fie also accused CAC of spending money to avoid a budget cut next semester, and went on to say “supposedly other Panic groups have also received money from CAC.” He concluded by recommending SA seriously look into the funding of CAC. For the record: I. CAC did not give Panic Theatre any money whatsoever: Panic Theatre 1 asked for S2000.00, but CAC did not fulfill the request. 2. CAC is not spending money to avoid a cut next semester. We regard it as one of our highest priorities to save money whenever possible, as a responsibility to fee-paying undergraduate students. 3. Undeniably, CAC has shared resources with other student groups (POI)FR, Human Sexuality, Family Planning), and will continue to do so for any groups that ask for C'AC’s cooperation in programs of community service and social change. 4.

As members of the senior class of the undergraduate program of the School of Social Work (SUNYAB), we feel it imperative that there be a re-evaluation of the decision to cut the program so drastically. Not only has the undergraduate program been discontinued as of September 1977, but now the only state graduate program in Western New York has been cut by 50.percent. These cuts seem contparison to cutbacks in disproportionate throughout the system. We fully agree and support the Faculty Committee Against Retrenchment’s Statement. “The consequences of these actions should be immediately obvious. Approximately 80 percent of the social workers in Western New York are graduates of this school. It has been a major resource for the local population attaining professional degrees in social In the Wednesday, April 7th issue of The Spectrum I read a letter submitted by Vijaykumar Patel. One point stated in his letter bothered me sufficiently to initiate this response. Mr. Patel stated that GA’s and TA’s are appointed on the basis of academic ability. He went on to say that there is more to academic ability than just language facility. Many of the GA’s and TA’s are responsible for teaching undergraduates. In this respect I feel they are compelled to have a fluency in the English language by nature of their position as teachers. After all, English is their primary tool regardless of the subject they teach. In many instances the GA’s and TA’s are relied upon more heavily than the professor teaching the course. It is with the GA or TA that one is supposed to have some kind of direct communication in relation with the course. If the GA or TA has a limited ability to communicate in English, the student is put at an immediate disadvantage. Especially when compared to other students in the same course but who have a GA or TA who speaks English more fluently. In conclusion, a GA or TA can be the brightest person in the world (have a high academic ability) but if he can’t communicate his knowledge to the undergraduates assigned to him he is worthless to these individuals. He thereby defeats, to a large extent, his own purpose. # Steve Dear For the trophy table To the Editor. This is in response to Mr. Tom Nicotera’s letter in Monday’s April 5th The Spectrum titled “Serving New York State.” I would like to point out some facts which might help Mr. Nicotera’s horizons: I. It is true that some foreigners lack verbal skills in English. But many, from countries like India, can converse in English with fluency, clarity of thought and grammatical perfection. (Such ability stems from the unfortunately prolonged British rule.) we don’t speak the same way as many Americans do. We don’t draw out words like “mass” (which is invariably pronounced “miass” in this country). Neither do we thoughtlessly say “ain’t” for “aren’t,” “isn’t” and every negation under the sun when “ain’t” is a proper substitute for 2. It is true that conservation. the National Wildlife Federation’s (incidentally strongly associated with Rifle Association), “animal the National management” concept. It’s basic axiom that wildlife would overpopulate and starve if mankind did not considerately kill off certain of their numbers. However, it is the prime specimen, the best of the species that “sportsmen”, seek out and destroy, not the weak, sick, the unfit, those most likely to starve. Then, if animal populations needed the omnipotent, omnicient assistance of humanity for population control, what on earth did those poor dear little animals do before man showed his face . . . and his fat gun butt on earth?

Monday, 12 April 1976 trivial matter when there are (ostensibly) much more matters which should warrant our attention? Simply because “like” and “you know” have escaped our attention for too long. Its about time that the art of communication be reinstated in everyday conversation. A conscious effort to avoid the use of “like” and “you know” must he made by those who suffer from this malady. One reliable method for helping a stricken friend is to answer, “NO 1 DON’T KNOW,” whenever he/she ends a Sentence with “you know.” The use of like may be dealt with by asking the offender, “like what?” Far from being a panacea, these methods do have their drawbacks, one of which is being punched in the mouth by a ungrateful friend who’s disposition prevents him/her from recognizing your good intentions. The point, however, is that practically everyone suffers from this illness (to varying degrees). Alas, even 1 (patronizing as this may sound) lapse into unconscious intermittent interjection of those little “fillers.” But, like, how can you blame me? You know? important Often when one is stuck on a word or a thought needs to pause in order to let one’s words catch up with one’s thoughts that the sound “urn” is placed in the appropriate pause. Well, although “um” is far from being retired, it has found companionship in a realtively new “filler” which has been surreptitiously working its way into common usage. So prevalent is this “filler” that it has reached and threatens to add epidemic proportions irreparable insult to the much maligned English language. This “filler,” who’s identity has been paradoxically obscured by its over use, is simply the word “like.” But pardon my oversight! I have failed to mention its inseparable commrade “you know.” Both “like” and “you know” worm their ways into a conversation in such a manner as to render it utterly irritating to the discriminating ear. Some or merely folks are afflicted so badly that the inclusion of a part of speech other than “like” and “you know” is to be considered a rarity. Their conversation is reduced to a meaningless blather comprised solely of “like” and “you know” and an occasional noun. Why, you may ask, do I address myself to such a K.B.

Jonathon Kandell found Argentina’s social lions celebrating the overthrow of Isabel Peron at an early morning supper in the exclusive section of Buenos Aires. The guests sat down for supper under a glass chandelier imported from the Austrian empire at the tufn of the century.

"Pretty strange, all right, but have you seen the guy with the aluminum foil pellets in his shoes? You know, the one with the earplugs?’’ These students at the University of Michigan are really not as strange as they seem, even if they are tooling around the campus in wheel chairs more than necessary. It’s all part of Professor Tamerra Moeller’s class on “The Psychology of Aging." “The purpose is not just to find out that it is painful to be arthritic, crippled, or partially deaf,” Moeller explains. "It is to feel the sense of incompetence and vulnerability that many old people feel, and to notice that people treat you differently when you are handicapped.” As for the students, who are also keeping a diary so they can read about their “positive memories” in their own dotage, “few may become gerontologists but they do come away from the course with more empathy for older people, Moeller says. — ire POSITIONS ppllcatlons for: minority Affairs Chairperson Inter-Residence Judiciary WIRR General manager WIRR Administrative Assistant Pick up applications ats IRC6 Office 102 fl So.

A (CPS) secretive one apparently, who doesn’t want people to know he reads Hugh Hefner’s slick, glossy plaything. That is the conclusion of the recently released Simmons Survey, a yearly study that supposedly determines how many total people actually read each edition of the nation’s 65 leading magazines. “Playboy comes out in a fascinating way on terms of where it’s read,” a Simmons executive told The Wall Street Journal. “It’s amazing how often it’s i* read in someone else’s home.” Only 14 percent of Playboy's “pass-along audience” (as distinct from its “primary audience”) borrow the magazine and take it home, the survey found. Twenty-seven percent read it in someone else’s house and 37 read it at work. Added the executive, “The number of pages opened to is greater than any other publication. The compulsion is to fly through the pages. You don’t want to miss anything.” Among other things, the Simmons Survey also discovered that the biggest winner among the top three weekly newsmagazines is the conservative U.S. News and World Report. Newsweek' s readership was said tohave declined sharply over the past year, and more female readers are turning to Time whose overall readership remained steady, according to the — ■ survey.

Vice President Nolen Morrison sees problems in following that course. “I feel that, for one thing, the open door pplicy would be an impossibility to enforce. And who is to say how open tjie doors should be one inch, two feet or all the way?” he wonders. Morrison believes the school’s visitation policy, which forbids women and men to enter each others rooms, “is very liberal compared to other schools.” Establishing an “open door policy” would not be in the best interests of students, he concludes. — — Mickey Mouse Marcos The people that brought you the (CPS) Matterhorn, the Pirates of the Caribbean and other wonders of childish delight are now planning to build a similar extravaganza of fantasy in the Philippines.

Dr. Renato Dulbecco, a 1975 Nobel Prize winner, told a senate hearing that he questioned the government’s credibility as a promoter of health and fitness, because of its lack of action in reducing cigarette smoking. Dulbecco said that lung cancer is a prime example of a preventable cancer, caused by a clearly identified and unessential agent cigarette smoke.

The Spectrum . Monday, 12 April 1976 �UB lacrosse begins its spring schedule with win and loss all encompassing factor. Most of their opposition does not consist of teams beyond their calibre. by Gary Charles Spectrum Staff Writer The SUNY at Buffalo lacrosse club is two games into its season and sports a 1-1 record. Easily defeating Niagara University Club 14-4 in their, first game, the stick handlers were then trounced by R.l.T. 13-2 last Wednesday at Rochester. However Coach Wally Davis expects (he team to finish with a (>-2 record. "This is the best team we've had in four years." said last year’s co-captain Gary Passer. Led by midfielder Dave Caplan with six goals, the team is well rounded with plenty of experience. Attackmen Dave Hill and Frank Massera also expect to play a major part in this year’s season. Defensively, returning four year player Passer and teammate Gary Williams will be called on to contain the opposition. University wide The lacrosse team is unique in that all players are allowed to compete in games. It is also one of the most representative teams of the school. Within the last four years of its existence, there have been undergraduates, law, dental and medical students and even professors on the team. In fact, one of the reasons the team refuses to compete on a varsity level is that it would be unable to put in the necessary hours of training and practice to compete with top varisty teams. Since the sticksters are aware of this inability to compete, the players tend to be more relaxed while playing, and the game is enjoyed more for sport than for competition. This is not to say that they don’t wish to win but winning is not an Lacrosse steamrolling Lacrosse is a little known sport that is slowly gaining popularity. Originally invented by the Iroquois Nation Indians, it is a sort of ice hockey on land. Instead of curved sticks, the players use sticks with nets attached to them, and they pass a ball instead of a puck. The talent lies in carrying the ball while the opponent attempts to knock it out of the stick. The ultimate goal is to put the ball in the opponents’ net, past a goalie. Heavy contact, including ’blocking, picking, shoving and pushing are a main reason for lacrosse’s rise in prominence today. Four 15 minute periods of non-stop running make lacrosse exciting to watch. Picking up ground balls while running full speed is another important fundamental of lacrosse maneuver and many games are won or lost by teams’ ability to execute this feat. A professional lacrosse league, exists today although amateur lacrosse is growing due to the low cost of equipment for one thing. A football field, helmets, gloves, arm guards, balls, two nets and sticks are all that are necessary to start a team. Schools in Canada and the northern United States have been playing lacrosse for years. N.C.A.A. playoffs take place yearly. Traditional powerhouses include Maryland, Cornell, Johns Hopkins, Hoftstra and Hobart and scholarship awarding and recruiting are actively undertaken by these schools. The lacrosse Bulls will be playing its first home game April 17, against Oswego State at the soccer field. Baseball Bulls split pairatSeton Hall, drop two games at St John's The baseball Bulls’ three day road swing got off to a disappointing start this past weekend. Doubleheaders against Seton Hall and St. John’s resulted in just one win for Buffalo against three losses. On Friday, in New Jersey, the Bulls broke Seton Hall’s six game winning streak with a 10—1 victory over the Pirates. In that game, the Bulls smacked four home runs. John Kidd, Mike Amico, Jim Mary, and Mike Dixon all connected for the big blasts. For Kidd and Dixon, the blasts were their seconds of the seaons Riedel shuts door While the Bulls were scoring virtually at will in the first game, senior righthander Jim Riedel was silencing the Seton Hall bats. Riedel, who was 0—1 last spring despite getting eight starts, notched his first win of the young season by yielding just three hits and striking out six. In the nightcap, however, things did not go quite so well for Buffalo. Yhey had no difficulty scoring runs, but erratic pitching and sloppy fielding made things even easier for Seton Hall which exploded for 13 runs en route to a 13—6 victory. The Bulls had tied the game in the top of the sixth with two runs when the Pirates broke loose for seven of their own. Three errors, three walks, and five base hits proved to be the Bulls undoing as neither Bill Casbolt or Ron Nero, both working in relief, could end the Pirate uprising. Starting pitcher John Buszka was the Bulls’ hitting star in the game, collecting three hits and three runs batted in. Bulls lose twice Saturday was no better for the Bulls than was late Friday. Playing against St. Johns University in Jamaica, New York, the Bulls came close in the first of two games, dropping a 6—5 decision to the Redmen, but again were blasted in the second game, losing 10-4. The Bulls have had trouble in the past against St. Johns. Last year, they dropped a 2-0 decision to the Redmen. The 1—3 roadswing brings the Bulls’ overall record to an undistinguished 7-10, and Buffalo’s northern swing mark now stands at an even 3—3. Buffalo remains on the road this weekend with a doubleheader against Cortland, and then opens at home a week from Thursday with two games against Big Four rival Canisius.

Although officials can’t say for sure whether the threats are real, they aren’t taking chances. “About the time we say that they law bluffing,” are one enforcement source told Scripps-Howard News Service, “we might start to hear windows shattering and bricks falling.” Revolutionary law school training street wise lawyers by Diane Auerbach Special to The Spectrum For years, a stint in law school (CPS) guaranteed an insular existance. Law students renounced all interest in worldly affairs, retreated to a book-lined enclave of torts and briefs, and emerged three years later, ready to sling legalese with the best of ’em. But their three-year live burial in classic cases prepared most lawyers for only certain kinds of litigation: million dollar divorces, upper income tax returns and trials of kidnapped heiresses, yes. Indicted 13-year-old heroin addicts, injunctions against picketing protestors and evictions of 20-member ghetto families, no. Besides, there were all those expensive law school debts to pay off and a comfortable position waiting with Higgens, Matlock, Johnson, Johnson and Johnson. A good street lawyer was too hard to find, decided a few attorneys. They wanted a school to and at a reasonable price to decrease the shortage students. Enter the People’s College of Law. — — Alternative “If you want to become deputy district attorney or work in the legal department of some corporation,” the school catalog says, “don’t waste your time and ours by applying. There are other schools for you all the others.” The People’s College of Law in Los Angeles prepares its 130 students, nearly half of whom are women and minorities, to work for social change. It’s an alternative to law schools that stress elitism and competition, its founders say. And it’s the only one of its kind. Students pay $350 a semester to attend the new school, which is unaccredited. California, unlike most states, does not require attendance at an — Page fourteen . accredited law school as a prerequisite for taking the bar exam The school’s first year students are given conventional classes to prepare them for the state bar-administered First-Year Law Examinations. The students must pass these to continue studies in an unaccredited school. But in the next three years, they take classes that many say they could find nowhere else, dealing with tenant-landlord law, consumerism, immigration, police brutality, sterilization and racism. Demystifying the law “We’re trying to turn out fully trained people lawyers, lawyers who will go back to thejr communities to practice,” says Henry di Suvero, a faculty member and moving force behind the opening of the school. The emphasis at People’s College is not on past B.A.’s and LSAT scores are not even grades but on the ability to learn, the faculty required say. The school is virtually run by students. Extensive participation in the school’s legal clinic is mandatory. Remedial writing classes are available, as is free child care. All classes are held in the evening, so that students can hold onto current jobs. “What we’re doing,” says Student Mario Vasquez, “Is demystifying the law, saying that it’s not for the chosen few. A traditional law school is very alienating. You go to UCLA and you feel the fear. Professors use the Socratic method of teaching. We don’t play that kind of game. We say, ‘Here is the principle of law and this is how it applies’.” The real test for People’s College will come in two years with its first graduating class. Then its ability to produce graduates who can pass the California Bar Examination reputedly one of the toughest in the country will be gauged. — The Spectrum .

Smith pointed out that the stood at $ 1 'h million before 1970-71, a figure he believes would let the libraries “just about keep up.” budget The University libraries' are having “severe problems” due to an inadequate acquisition budget and the situation' will deteriorate further if an adequate budget is not forthcoming, according to Libraries Director Eldred Smith. The budget crunch that hit the State University system this year, along with the rise in the forced the wage, minimum libraries to lay off a number of hourly staff, mostly students. In addition, the stretching out of resources between three campuses has caused a great many problems for the libraries and their users. Smith said. current Smith said the acquisition budget was cut about $200,000, to $896,000, by the State Division of the Budget last summer. However, it was later about upped to $1,030,000 — Behind comparable schools Comparable schools, such as have UCLA and Berkeley, acquisition budgets in the S2 million range, and are situated near other research libraries that complement their resources. Not only do our libraries lack a nearby research facility. Smith said, but they are forced to subsist on half that level of support. This year’s acquisition budget approximately the represents same amount of money in dollars as was budgeted five years ago, he However, said Smith. cautioned that inflation plus rising purchase costs has led to a large budget cut in practical terms. drawn from the Figures libraries budget request for the current year show that this University ranks behind other large state universities in the number of volumes per student. Our libraries have approximately 59 volumes per student while Berkeley has 152. Illinois State 146. Michigan 121. Indiana 113, and UCLA 111. In addition, Rutgers, Texas. Wisconsin. Minnesota and Ohio State all possess more volumes per student than our libraries do. Staff problems of the libraries’ Many budgetary problems stem from a recent study by the Division of the Budget that found them “overbudgeted” in acquisitions yet underfunded in staff. Smith said. Smith said the recent rise in the minimum wage from $2.00 an hour to $2.30 caused serious staffing problems because the the minimum wage, he continued. facilities problems are not related to the libraries budget, and are of an “interim” nature until the is Campus fully Amherst Smith occupied. state did not allow for this added expense. Much of the library staff consists of students who work at regretted said he some of these hourly positions because students do “very adequate” work and are usually more flexible with hours. The staffing problems have been aggravated by the partial of the Amherst completion Campus. There is an obligation to provide library services at three campuses, he said, leading to inefficient operations, duplication and services, of some inconveniences to users. When the facilities complete their move to Amherst, currently set for Fall 1977, they can be combined and staff can be scheduled more efficiently with less overlap. This will result in better service to users, the Libraries Director asserted. Smith stressed that the current eliminating Some gains Smith went on to say that the challenge facing the major libraries at this time is to increase services without increasing expenditures. He pointed to the libraries’ “uncatalogued backlog,” which is kept in storage at the Bell Facility on Elmwood Avenue and has been cut in half because processing productivity has been doubled. Smith was hopeful that a favorable recommendation by the President’s Committee on Academic Planning (PCAP) would make the libraries a higher budgetary priority. (The library Committee called resources “inadequate” and urged —continued on page 18— Student Senate votes down continuing strike by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor The Student Senate voted down a proposal to continue Tuesday’s strike in a tense emotion-filled meeting in Haas Lounge late that afternoon. A large group of students who had participated in the rally held before the meeting filed into the lounge to support the strike resolution but hostility soon developed between the Senators and the group pressing around them. Student Association (SA) Executive Vice President Steve Speigel, the Senate chairman, still recovering from hepatitis and difficulty jaundice, had controlling the meeting. Members of the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks were angered over what they felt was poor last week’s wording in referendum, in which a one-day strike was approved. The referendum asked students to chose between an ongoing strike subject to termination by the Student Association and a one-day protest. The one-day strike won by a slim 22 votes. The itself, however, strike was approved by better than a 3 to 1 margin. Manipulation The Coalition felt the students who voted against the strike should not have been given the opportunity to decide how long it should be. Because SA did, and because the Executive Committee approved a one-day strike 16-0-1 Saturday, the Coalition charged that SA “manipulated” the results of the referendum because they really opposed the strike and the efforts of the Coalition from the very beginning. Other business on the Senate’s agenda never reached the floor. After the strike vote most of the senators left the meeting or gathered in the front of the room for spirited discussion with Coalition members. SA President Steve Schwartz reported that he and Elections and Credentials Chairman Michael Price had been told by SA’s attorney that tabulating the vote the way the coalition suggested could be illegal. Boo and hiss, etc. technicalities aside, Legal Schwartz said he personally felt the one-day strike was the correct interpretation of the referendum vote, and that the questions were proper. “If a student voted no for the strike, they are still affected by it, so they should have the right to vote on its duration,” he observed. this, like of But most Schwartz’s other statements during the I!4 hour meeting, brought boos and catcalls from the audience. One spokeswoman who supported the on-going strike contended that allowing students who voted against the strike to determine its duration was “letting them vote twice.” “What the hell kind of democracy is that, that’s what 1 want to know,” she shouted. Stand together At one point in the meeting, about 50 angry students crowded behind the table where Speigel and the other SA officers were all demanding to speak. sitting Although Speigel insisted that anyone who waited “for their turn” would be allowed to speak. — —continued on page 18— �x:.: * -I > - Analysis Jackson and Carter winners in latest Democratic primary by Pat Quinlivan Senator Henry Jackson of Washington and former Governor Jimmy Carter of Georgia were the winners Tuesday in the New York Wisconsin and Democratic presidential primaries. In New York, Jackson won delegates, more than any other candidate, but he fell short of the “landslide” he had predicted earlier, garnering less than 50 percent of the total 274. Carter won a surprise victory in Wisconsin by the slimmest of over margins Arizona Congressman Morris Udall, who considered Wisconsin a “must” state in his campaign. The race was so close that two of the major television networks found themselves with egg on their faces, since they had pronounced Udall the winner on the basis of early, 107 incomplete returns. CBS was the lone holdout, and Walter Gronkite told Udall on the air that they thought the race would go down to the wire, which it did. Udall, by that time, had already claimed a victory, which would have been his first. Republican On the side. President Gerald Ford won victory another over former California Governor Ronald Reagan in Wisconsin, by a spread of 55 to 44 percent. The Ford win was his sixth in seven contests, following a Reagan upset in North Carolina.

Also endorsed was Ketter’s appeal that tuition waivers be increased for graduate and professionals to help offset higher tuition costs. Over 1000 grad and professional students will be affected by the Robert Ketter’s state's elimination of SUS and reductions in Tuition Assistance Plan (TAP) awards. Those eligible for the maximum grants will be forced to pay an additional $1800 for their education next year when tuition hikes are taken into account. The unanimous approval of Ketter’s requests sparked no debate among Faculty Senate members. The vote served only as a show of faculty-administration solidarity on the issue of graduate support. - Tenure rights The focal point of debate at Tuesday’s meeting centered upon proposals drawn up by the Committee on Tenure and Privileges. In a 17-page memorandum, the Committee attempted to reconcile traditional faculty rights, mainly tenure and retrenchments in academic programs (implying release of faculty members) made necessary by cutbacks in the State University budget. Tenure priveleges and academic freedom are rights specifically protected in the United University Professional New York State contract. The memorandum states, “At the present time budgets have been generally, and to a degree, selectively reduced. Although some departments have found the results oppressive there have not been drastic reductions in the academic effectiveness of any program in the University. A few programs will be so affected in 1976-77 by the $1,150,000 State University reductions. If a much larger cut is imposed, however, something more drastic will have to be done.” - Bulls-eye The administration has retrenchments several programs it sees as “questionable.” The report of the Academic Planning Committee, which reveals what types of programs are viewed unfavorably, calls for the phasing out or scaling down of several colleges, minority study programs, among others. The Committee on Tenure and Privileges, led by Murray Brown, met with Vice President Robert Fisk yesterday. The results of this meeting were not available at press time, but Brown indicated that although the faculty has no real input into budget decisions, his committee wished to examine the administration's criteria for program retrenchment in the next fiscal year. S The Tenure Committee memorandum also states that many faculty will have to be let go as a result of the current fiscal crunch. The committee proposes that faculty cuts shall be applied “in inverse order of appointment” new faculty go first, tenured later, if at all. Employees in the upper echelon of the University, those holding continuing or permanent appointments, are the most secure. - Disposing of waste Several Faculty Senate members pointed out that the proposed retrenchments lie entirely within the academic sphere. One faculty member questioned whether the administration has yet cut all waste and inefficiency from non-academic areas. In response to this. Executive Vice President Albert Somit insisted that non-academic areas have been cut to the bone, adding sardonically that “the faculty would continue attacking along these lines as long as one janitor remained in the University.” Somit maintained that the non-academic area is an improper area for Senate inquiry. Another faculty member suggested that the Committee should cancel its meeting with Fisk for fear of the Senate being ascribed as having given tacit approval to the retrenchments. He concluded that sipce they cannot influence the administration’s decision, the faculty are in a “no win situation.” This suggestion was not acted upon. History Professor Marvin Bernstein said the Semite Executive Committee is sticking its neck? out'«wkh the administration alt too willing to cut its ncck off from eartqrear; George Hochfteld, Chairman the Faculty Senate infortned the body that the ateai to be affected by the academic cuts have already been The a# Fisk’s budget committee will be transmitted to tbe Prestdanthfcxfcwcek. —Forrest Budget cuts Foreign students fear loss of campus counseling office More’than 100 people, mostly foreign students, rallied Wednesday afternoon in Haas Lounge against the elimination of the Office of ' Foreign Student Affairs (OFSA) made necessary by the State Legislature’s cuts in the SUNY budget. Foreign students expressed fear that they would no longer receive the guidance necessary to cope with the disorientation and "culture shock” which often occurs when students are placed in an unfamiliar environment, in an educational system radically different from that which they are used to. “These services are important, especially for the new students, who feel disoriented, confused, and encounter a feeling of loss,” SA International Affairs Coordinator Colbert Lam claimed. Speakers on a panel which addressed the audience were Vice President for Student Affairs Siggelkow, Richard OFSA Director Joseph Williams, Student Association (SA) President Steve Schwartz, Graduate Student (GSA) Association Treasurer Mong Heng Tan, Mrs. Nobeo of the Buffalo Council of World Affairs (BCWA), and Gilbert Lam and Mohammed SA Malik, International Affairs Coordinators. Decentralization urged The OFSA, which must close July I, was described by Williams as “providing any service, from A to Z, for foreign students.” The functions of OFSA, which will now be included in other offices under a proposed decentralization plan worked out by Siggelkow, include interpretation of visa and immigration regulations and approval of student status, in ter cultUral counseling for adjustment students with problems, and the organization of intercultural educational programs with /. schools, feteign cited a m 'its t All former residents are invited to show their spirit meet & Sunday, April 11 at 3 pm TOWER LIVES!

He spoke glowingly of the potentials now available to foreign students. “We can now provide a more complete service so that foreign students will be able to utilize ail staff personnel from the Student Affairs and Services divisions of the University,” he said. Siggelkow reiterated his position that the abolition of OFSA was done by the legislature, and that this must be carried out. Labeling the legislature “myopic, insular and chauvinistic,” he said that SUNY is a “privincial percent of its institution with students from New York State. We worked hard to get a Democrat elected governor; now we must work equally hard to get. him out." Both SA and GSA officials expressed their support for the reinstatement of the present OFSA. Schwartz called the cut “a surprise” and said that a firm, commitment to fight for the the “misunderstanding what OFSA has done in the past and is doing now.” “Anytime we have a problem, we could go to any staff member and they would help us,” he said. Siggelkow also promised that some form of central information point would be established with Williams as coordinator. He further pledged that all current staff members would retain positions in the University where they will be counselors solely for foreign students in the other campus student service offices. , -V m mv Eureka Coleman Camel Discount Tent and OFSA has been obtained from local State Assemblyman Bill Hoyt.

Waterhole No. 3 will include large bars where mixed drinks and beer can be purchased at minimal prices, in addition to snacks and a live band for dancing.

Sorgle as ready, to cater to the students’ desires, stressing the fact that Waterhole No. 3 is a service for the students.

Goodyear or IRC OFFICE-ELLICOTT E347 Richmond Unionization voting by Food Service workers scheduled Food Service workers may soon be represented by an AFL-CIO affiliated union depending on the results of an employees’ election to be held next month. The Spectrum has learned. Full and part-time workers will vote May 10 on whether they wish to be represented by Local 66 of the Hotel & Restaurant Workers Union. However, according to union officials, workers who are full-time students will not be allowed to vote due to an unfavorable ruling by the State Labor Relations Board. Approximately 206 out of Food Service’s 404 employees are students, according to figures supplied the State Board by Food Service. The last attempt to unionize Food Service workers was made in nts its weekend films 10pm Every Man For Friday ApriJ 9th at 6, 8, Himself and God Against All UUAB — & , May 1974, when a representation bid by the same union failed by an 85-58 margin. According to several Food Service workers, prospects for unionization may have changed somewhat in the intervening two years due to recent layoffs and a larger number of employees now that the Amherst Campus is in partial operation. Students blocked Union officials say the union sought to include student workers in the representation election, but this was blocked by Food Service attorneys who presented legal precedents for their exclusion. However, Food Service Director Don Hosie, denied this charge, claiming the exclusion was by mutual agreement due to the differing interests of regular workers and students. Union officials told a number of Food Service workers attending a meeting last weekend that the usual initiation fee for new union members will be waived in this case. (Initiation fees are charged in many unions, but are often waived when a particular plant first unionizes.) One union leader told the employees that a unionized Food Service would mean better wages, better health benefits, institution of a pension plan, and freedom from petty harassment by means of a grievance procedure. Father-son Hosie told The Spectrum that he believed a union would not be in the best interests of Food Service workers here. He cited a “one-to-one relationship” between Food Service management and employees, and questioned whether resorting to a “third party” would be helpful to the workers. Hosie asserted that Food Service was a non-profit enterprise and that there simply was not any money available to pay higher wages and benefits to workers. “We feel we have a history of providing for our employees,” he insisted. Hosie pointed to pay raises given employees here over the past several years as an additional argument against a union. Also, any increases in wages and benefits would result in higher prices to students as well as other customers, he said. Hosie admitted that “there are businesses where a union will benefit employees,” but he doesn’t believe that is the case here.

East High School Auditorium „ �Nuclear power: is it really a viable economic alternative by Clem Colucci Special to The Spectrum Although a recently-disclosed leak in the Nuclear Reactor facility here put safety in the news this week, the issue was well in the background during a debate Wednesday evening on the of commercial nuclear economics debate, The power. jointly sponsored by Student Association Speakers Bureau and the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG), pitted two of Niagara representatives Mohawk Power Company, which plans to build its second nuclear plant (Nine Mile Point 2) near Oswego, against two opponents of expanded development of nuclear power. The economics of nuclear ’ power is the slighted side of the nuclear controversy, lacking as it does the emotional impact of poisoning, genetic radiation damage, nuclear calastrophies and the other issues of public health and environmental quality that have spurred most of the heated opposition to plans to build more more nuclear powered and facilities. The generating economic debate focuses not on whether radiation exposure in and around nuclear plants is sufficient to cause cancer, but whether capital costs of nuclear and coal-fired plants are converging or diverging; not on the adequacy of back-up safety systems, but on the amount of “down time” due and outages, corrosion, to refueling. But if the economics of nuclear energy lacks the political and emotional impact of the safety issue, it is still important to power stockholders, companies, government regulatory bodies, and, most of all, to the consumers of electric power, who ultimately will foot the bi(l for any decisions made on how projected increases in demand for electrical power will be satisfied. The current issue of Newsweek reports that of the five major companies involved in nuclear power generating, only one, Westinghouse, has been able to turn a profit. Ironically, since much of the impetus behind nuclear power development came from the Arab oil embargo and recent sharp increases in oil prices, fuel costs, from costs of uranium at the mine to costs of Final word by Ketter Faculty layoffs forthcoming by Charles Greenberg Contributing Editor Eight faculty members of the School of Social Work and four members of the Sociology Department daculty will be terminated at the end of this academic year United University Professions told The Spectrum President Charles Fall Wednesday. The Provost of the Faculty of Social Sciences Arthur Butler could not comment on the specific He said, units slated for personnel however, that President Robert Ketter is expected to make the final decision on which units will be cut on April 12. Levine, Adele Sociology Department chairwoman declined comment on the retrenchment moves within her department. Bernard Greenblatt, Associate Professor of Social Work, said that at a special departmental meeting held on April 6, the Dean of the school, Sherman Merle, announced that eight positions will be cut from the School of Social Work. The total faculty presently stands at 25, so this represents a one third reduction, he explained. Six fired Of the eight positions to be eliminated, three are occupied by non-tenured and five by tenured faculty said Greenblatt. Of five tenured faculty, tow intended to retire this year. This means that six people in the department will actually be fired, Greenblatt explained. One of the more perplexing features of this retrenchment process, according to Greenblatt, was that on April 5, the Social Work Dean told four people that they were being cut. Apparently, the list of people to be retrenched was given to the Dean by April 5, he added. The next day, Fall was told by Thomas Craine, Assistant to the President, that this “should not have happened,” Greenblatt explained. Fall also received a copy of a letter on April 6 from Ketter to Acting Vice President for Academic Affairs Robert Fisk outlining the procedure for dealing with budgetary problems. The development of such a list was not to take place until April 9. A number of faculty members view the preceding events as “Orwellian” Greenblatt said. Procedure outlined The letter from Ketter to Fisk called for nine specific steps in assigning retrenchments to various areas of the University. The first step called for Fisk to send letters to the Provosts and Deans asking them to recommend specific units within their areas for increases or decreases in funding. This was to be tollowed by an April 7 meeting with a subcommittee of the Faculty Senate to discuss the recommendations of the Provosts. The Provosts and Deans who received Fisk's letter now have until today for any further comments. On April 9. Ketter is scheduled to receive formal recommendations from Fisk, the news of which will be conveyed to the UUP. This final decision will come three days later. ‘Select’ consultation The UUP has not been consulted in any matters concerning the retrenchment. Fall charged. The only faculty consultation has been with the “select” sub-committee of the Faculty Senate, he explained. “The impression several of my colleagues received was that this process of retrenchment is designed to present this campus with a speedy fail accompli*' said Greenblatt. The letter from Ketter to Fisk on April 6 allotted eight calendar days for a process to eliminate 143 positions. It appears that the University is trying to act quickly so that the faculty will not have an opportunity to deal effectively with retrenchment, he added. Of the reported 300 cuts to be made in the SUNY system, almost one. half are scheduled for Buffalo. That is a disproportionate amount of burden to place on this University, Greenblatt observed. Some people feel that the cuts have hit several units within this University. While retrenchment is ensuing in some programs. Fall has been told that the Geography, Psychology, and Economics Departments and the School of Management are interviewing for new faculty positions. Job security Another serious issue brought to light in this crisis is that of Academic Freedom and Tenure. The American Association of University Professors in a 1940 report linked thise two issues out of a concern that provessors be able to teach and research without jeopardizing their job tenure. “Security of role and guarantee that it will not be jepardized is a basic component of academic freedom” said Fall. In an advisory bulletin sent to all its members on April 8, UUP stated its position in regard to the loss of jobs. UUP is demanding “clear evidence of financial constrictions which require dismissal action and proof that every other potential saving has been used before [dismissal of] instruction personnel has been taken.” UUP also requested “clear evidence” that a procedure has been followed which meets requirements of the union contract. Lay-offs at the University must be attrubutable to a justifiable cause. According to contract, there must be clear evidence that any layoffs follow a prescribed seniority program. UUP is prepared to monitor all actions in this regard to ensure that no member is victimized by “arbitrary and capricious action by the administration.” —Forrest reprocessing and storage of waste, have risen sharply, making the future profitability of nuclear power problematic. after Shortly Niagara Mohawk’s public hearings on its latest rate hike request. State Affairs Consumer Director Rosemary Pooler relased figures alleging that fuel, safety, and maintenance costs of nuclear power were higher than power comapny officials predicted and would lead to still greater rate hikes in the future. Niagara Mohawk responded with figures of its own purporting to show the opposite was true. ?

It is widely believed that charging FSA’s rent could result in a price increase, possibly a large one, for all FSA services. FSA’s, which run on a similar basis on all SUNY campuses operate bookstores, food, vending and linen services on a not-for-profit basis. The individual Board of Directors are composed of faculty, students and administrators. The State of New York presently provides dining room buildings, snack bars, offices and bookstore space rent-free to the FSA’s. But Comptroller Arthur Levitt’s office may soon start demanding rent from FSA’s as part of a search for new sources of revenue in the state’s ongoing fiscal crisis. President Robert Ketter has publicly declared his opposition to any plan to charge FSA rent. So far, however, he has not said what he will do specifically to attempt to block the proposal. Vice President for Finance and Management Edward Doty said Ketter’s opinion would have some impact on the Comptroller. “Ketter could not stop it, but he would try,” Doty said. How much money SUNY Vice Chancellor for Finance and Business Harry Spindler Said the various SUNY campuses have been asked to evaluate the operating costs of their -FSA branches “to see how much money is involved.” This includes utility (heat and electric) expenditures but not construction costs. Spindler could not estimate how high the rent charge would be. “The issue is presently under study,” he said. “We don’t know what the cost will be yet.” However, he did say that each SUNY campus FSA would be charged separately, and that each charge would be made based on how much the individual FSA is costing the state. Jon Roller, Student Association (SA) Vice President for Sub Board, has dim predictions as to the outcome of the rent charge. “If FSA is charged for space and utilities, prices will go up for students,” he said. “If you’re a businessman and your utilities are being raised, you’ll have to pass the cost on the consumers,” Roller explained. The SA Executive Committee has not yet met on the topic. Roller said he would remain in contact with Doty, and suggested starting a lobby or letter writing campaign against charging FSA rent.

Before the Student Senate, and the many people there who had attended the 3 p.m. rally, was a proposal to prolong hjt Tuesday's strike until the various demands were met and to place the resources of the Student Association at the disposal of the striking students. In effect, this proposal would have invalidated the referendum results, which indicated that the majority of students who voted were in favor of a one-day strike only. Members of the Coalition charged that the wording of the referendum enabled students who did not support a strike to determine its length, thereby allowing them to vote twice. SA stuck by its position that even if a student voted "no for the strike, he/she is still affected by it and therefore is equally entitled to decide its duration. In Monday's editorial, we voiced disagreement with the wording of the referendum, and stated that the ballot should a one-day strike, an have presented three choices indefinite strike, or no strike.

The encountered necessary to describe the “unpleasant” nature of his stay at Oakstone Farm., but instead conjured up for the public, visions of unexplained vice awaiting any prospective resident to the Fram. He also failed to include his name among those that could be asked to explain their discontent with the experience. His exclusions tend to form bewildered question marks in the readers' minds but have the right amount of impact to steer them away from actually placing that first phone call which would be a serious omission of the actual facts. Upon contacting Oakstone Farm the prospective resident is welcomed to join the present residents for supper at their place, which provides and excellent opportunity for investigating the practicalities of living on the Farm and to meet face to face with the people one is considering living with. 1 read the “ex-resident” letter with apprehension the day before my visit to Oakstone Farm. Instead of the “catch” I was expecting to uncover somewhere, I found to my extreme pleasure a group of intelligent and wholly responsible individuals guided by Jonathan Ketchum down paths (not of wrack and ruin which the ex-resident hints at) of greater appreciation and expression of the humanities in particular in an informal manner which encourages both listening and participation on any and all subjects (barring the mundane) with an unsnobbishly humorous delivery. Not everyone can handle such an introspective and honest situation. However, that is why Oakstone Farm exists; it is only for those who wish to work at enriching themselves in a practical and knowledgeable mode.

Bartnikowski �Opening minds Bye bye Panic Theatre To the editor. To the Fdilor. many interpretations of my letter in Monday's The Spectrum lead me to believe that I was less than specific in my presentation (where do I I was sign up for Comp. 211?). The problem bothered by the attitude of a number of students I The — had talked to. They had developed a resentment for the students organizing action against the cutbacks and thus would close their minds to consideration of the problems developing in this University. This prejudice toward the protestors was expressed to me a painful number of times. Since any further battle charges from the protestors would be useless in influencing the thoughts of these students, I took it upon myself to~try to make an impression on them. The letter was meant to express the hopes that these people shouldn’t be insensitive to the issues behind the protests. Clifford Cappelli It don't work To the Editor. I am against the strike that took place Tuesday. It is a purile demand for attention and a free day from school. For a strike such as this to be effective, it should have taken place when it would have meant something; namely, last fall. It is now a redundant issue. I personally voted no for the strike, but voted for an ongoing affair until the issues were resolved. As it is, a one day strike caused only resentments by the community at large. 1 deplore the fact that my hard-earned money (I have returned to get my degree after a thirteen year hiatus), in the guise of mandatory activities fees, is paying for this sophmoric attempt at rebellion. Those of us who voted no for the strike should demand a refund. After all, we’re here to attend classes, why should we be penalized? The issues at hand will be ignored by those in power. A one day strike will be entirely overlooked, and those on the picket lines will be regarded with tolerant amusement. It is too little, too late. If there is cause for a protest (and 1 concur), whole-heartedly it should be done seriously! Name withheld upon request 'THIS IS FUN— I HAVEN'T KEEN HlCUlPEP IN ONE OF THESE SINCE l%0’ there will In case you haven’t already heard be no Panic Theater production this semester. And the reasons behind it involve gross cases of poor — judgment, rewarded with an increased budget! First semester, Panic Theater managed to spend nearly all of its entire year’s budget, (which I understand to be about $3600.00) on its production of A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To the Forum. Aside from the necessary expenses involved in putting on any show, there were several instances of incredibly bad judgement. First, for some unknown reason, the flats which comprised the set were made out of 3/4 inch plywood instead of the at a cost of over usual canvas on a wood frame $600.00! Next came a problem with the cost of renting Sweethome School’s Auditorium. The vague wording of the contract they signed, left open the actual price! Even further, it seems that per agreement, Panic Theater was to remove its set within one. week. Since they had not removed a single nail by the Friday after the last performance the prinicpal at Sweethome ordered his people to remove the set, and billed Panic Theater for labor. So not only did Panic Theater have to pay for its removal, but it could not even make further use of the exceptionally expensive set material. Early in the second semester, I attended a Panic Theater “organizational” meeting. At this meeting, after numerous controversies brought up by executive committee members over who could or could not vote, the play. The Roar of the Creasepaint was chosen as the second semester play. Subsequently, potential directors submitted resumes and were interviewed. I was one of these applicants. While I was told by several Panic Theater intimates that 1 was better qualified, another person was chosen as director. The logic of this escapes me. — , The first thing the chosen director did was to change the show to Bye Bye Birdie, without the membership or the executive consulting committee. While this was going on, the Executive Committee was busily trying to find some way of financing the show. They found it in CAC. CAC agreed to give them something in the neighborhood of $2000.00 in return for a “benefit” performance. After such gross mismanagement first semester. Why were they given more money? And why did CAC have this much money available for something not budgeted? Is it possible that CAC overestimated its budget, and in order to avoid a cutback next semester had to find a way to spend the money? They will say no, but supposedly other groups have also received money from CAC. They play was eventually cast, and after eight weeks of rehearsal so many people had quit the show (supposedly only seven people were left) it was quietly and without explanation, cancelled. When 1 was passed over for the Director’s job, 1 was told that 1 shouldn’t think Panic Theater was run by a clique. Yet it was this clique which raised the problems at meetings, picked one of their own as director, and also once again proved they could not produce a show. Even now, not the President, not the Executive Committee and not any member can account precisely for last semesters expenses or why Sweethome claims they still owe them $200.00! I would suggest that SA seriously look into the funding of both Panic Theater and CAC. In this time when cuts are being made everywhere, money should not be given to groups that cannot properly manage their funds or be given in excess of what is needed which seems to be the case with CAC. I suggest that a serious overhaul of Panic Theater’s organization is needed and a much closer look made into their expenditures. Rick Oechsle The Zimbabwe struggle To the h.ditor The March 29 issue of your newspaper carried a commentary by the Campus Hditor entitled “US Role in Rhodesia Unwise.” While the article expresses certain sentiment to oppose U.S. imperialism and support national liberation, which to say the least confused and we applaud, it is misguided, and does not at all truly reflect the situation’ in southern Africa and Zimbabwe. We would like to point out that in March, the Buffalo Student Movement invited The Spectrum to interview Michael Mawema. the Organizing Secretary of Zimbabwe African National Union, the organization which has historically led the armed struggle for liberation of Zimbabwe, when he was in Buffalo. The Spectrum passed up the opportunity. While The Spectrum refuses to publicize the views of the actual fighting people of Zimbabwe, it does print this article which can only sow confusion about the situation. We criticize The Spectrum for this activity. We point out that; 1. The slogan of ZANU is WE ARE OUR OWN LIBERATORS! The freedom fighters of Zimbabwe, which your commentary slanders as “poorly trained” and an ill match for the Rhodesian armed forces, have shaken the racist regime of Ian Smith quite seriously in recent years and are currently preparing for the final offensive to finish off imperialism, colonialism and racism in Zimbabwe. The armed struggle for the liberation of Zimbabwe, initiated in 1966, is in excellent condition, the camps of ZANU are over-flowing with freedom fighters, and it is precisely these African people who are liberating themselves from oppression. It is the African people who hold the key to the destiny of Africa, and gun in hand are seizing this destiny away from imperialism. It is not only in contradiction with the facts to suggest that the Zimbabwe freedom fighters are no match for Rhodesian reactionaries, it is chauvinist and insulting to the valiant African people. Recent history, particularly the victories of the Cambodian, Laotian and Vietnamese peoples, has definitely proven that a small nation can defeat a big, a weak nation can defeat a strong. The African people who are dealing telling blows against the racist Ian Smith regime of Rhodesia are bound to liberate their nation from imperialism, colonialism and racism in the near future. 2. To promote, as you do, that Soviet through the medium intervention into Zimbabwe has anything to do with of Cuban puppet troops liberating that nation is to turn truth on its head. You point out that: “If the U.S. government backed liberation movements in the Third World, instead of aiding their enemies, perhaps it might have some moral standing to attack Cuban and the Soviet Union for interfering militarily in Africa.” Now, of course, the U.S. imperialists oppose Soviet military intervention in Africa, just as the U.S. imperialists — - — — opposed Japanese military intervention in Asia. This however, is a most feeble and pointless argument by which to justify Soviet intervention in Africa, as your article clearly seeks to do. People who have sentiment to oppose imperialism and support the liberation of nations and peoples must oppose all imperialist, big power interference and intervention into the affairs of small nations and oppressed peoples. In today’s world, it is not enough to oppose just U.S. imperialism; one must oppose both superpowers. The Russian superpower, which carries the sign-board of “socialism,” is no less an enemy of the world’s people, and its crimes have included the invasion of Czechoslovakia, support for the fascist dictatorship of Indira Ghandi in India, and provoking of civil war in Angola. These crimes have been denounced by the freedom loving peoples of the world, led by the People’s Republic of China and we would suggest that People’s China surely has the “moral standing” which you require to oppose support one social-imperialism. T5 Soviet superpower in its contention for world domination with another superpower, simply because it carries the banner of “socialism” (as Adolph Hitler did), and to pass this off as anti-imperialism simply will not do. The oppressed people are increasingly awakening to the danger of Soviet social-imperialism, and their sentiment can only be summed up as “IF YOU COME TO US WITH A HAMMER AND SICKLE ON YOUR CHEST, AND FASCISM IN YOUR HEART' WE WILL KILL YOU JUST THE — SAME.” 3. We American people must recognize our duty to support the oppressed peoples in their struggles for liberation and independence. Most especially, we must render them support because it is “our own” government which attacks and opptesses the peoples of the world. We in the Central Organization of U.S. Marxist-Leninists put this principle into practice and fully support the armed liberation struggle of the African people of Zimbabwe. We call upon all progressive and democratic people to do the same and render to the fighting people of Zimbabwe both political and material assistance. Part and parcel of opposing supporting national liberation is chauvinism chauvinism which refuses to learn and about the struggles of oppressed peoples; chauvinism which denigrates the fighting abilities of oppressed peoples. In this respect. The Spectrum would perform a service to the oppressed people of anti-imperialist people southern Africa, and everywhere, if it would: 1.) stop confusing the situation in southern Africa and Zimbabwe and learn something about the people’s struggles; 2.) stop supporting the Soviet social-imperialism as it has done in recent months on the matter of Angola and now on Zimbabwe; 3.) start supporting the struggles of the oppressed people by propagating their views, instead of ignoring them. - from Buffalo Student Movement (COUSMI.J Friday, 9 April 1976 . The Spectrum . Page seven �The circus is in town To the Editor. “O judgement thou art fled to brutish beasts, and Men have lost their reason.” So says Mark Anthony in the funeral oration from Julius Caesar, and had he been to the Student Senate meeting of this past Tuesday, he might have said much the same. All sense of probity, and decorum that should be present at a meeting of the Senate was gone and it is this writer’s opinion that, because of this, we all have suffered. r I, and many others, were the witnesses to the ritual murder of dialogue, discussion and deliberation. The Student Senate, the legitimate deliberative body of the Undergraduate Student Association, was turned into a French Revolution tennis court! Students fighting one another, grabbing microphones, refusing to listen, heckling each other, and generally being at each others throats is not a good sign anytime, but most especially when a pointed discussion is the order of the day. The strike, an issue that had this campus brewing for at least two weeks and had at least 300 students working long hours with no compensation or cooperation, was most ineffectively dealt with by all parties concerned. Both sides knew what they wanted done but neither side made an effort towards an adequate dialogue. Assessment of the effects and outcomes of the strike had to be made and yet because of the circus like atmosphere of Haas Lounge, this could not take place. Where we go from here in terms of any kind of action against the tuition increases and room rent, hikes is anybody’s Message in the art country is celebrating the bicentennial many of our fellow citizens are not being given proper consideration as to their feelings or are being ignored altogether (to me, this seemed particularly appropriate in the case of the Indians). It seems most people with whom I have spoken about the drawing are in agreement with these last statements and saw no slur in evidence. But the purpose of this letter is not to defend or explain my drawing, Ms. Moessner. The real purpose is to say that if your perceptions tell you that this was a “dumb-vicious looking” Indian 1 drew, then that’s your hangup, not mine, and not one to which I have to cater. It is this kind of singleminded, stereotypical image which people automatically bestow on a commentary like mine that serves to perpetuate the prejudices and guilt-feelings to which you allude in your letter, Ms. Moessner, not simply the fact that the commentary was made. To the Editor. Yes, I did it. It was I who really drew the Indian Wednesday’s The Spectrum that you, Henni last in Moessner, refer to in your letter of April 7. As far as my artistic motives are concerned, I tried to live up to the best tradition of cartoon characterizations. Would you view Pat Oliphant’s depictions of President Ford (which have his head resembling a wrinkled potato) or Uganda's President Amin (which makes him appear to be a blimp about to burst) or Ralph Steadman’s Patty Hearst (which has her looking like a creature from another planet) as racist or just “making fun?" If you do then you miss the point. The point is that these artists are making comments on society. My rendition of the Indian was no less. The message I tried to convey was twofold; I) foremost, to satirize the bicentennial, which is rapidly becoming a pompous bore to many people (including me), in commemoration of April Fool’s Day and 2) to point out that while the guess. The fault for the whole turn of events is not the issue. Rather, it is the fact that those, on both sides, who wished to discuss, rationally and intelligently, the whole issue in all its views were denied their proper forum and more importantly, their rights. Disgust, frustration, and fear can only be the products of such a situation. Let’s hope that in the future we will remember that any issue, whether blase or controversial, can only be dealt with and discussion, through adequate planning important cooperation. We have done irrepairable harm to ourselves through the events that transpired in Norton on Tuesday. 1 hope that was the end of that kind of behavior. Only then will we know that mischief will not be afoot and take what course it will. Bob Budiansky Spectrum Graphic Arts Editor Jon Rollc S./4.

UUAB mini folk festival —it came together nicely I wish that the Fillmore Room hadn't been so crowded on the first night of last weekend's UUAB Mini-Folk Festival. I wish that the people who took the opportunity to get raucously drunk had gone to a bar if that was how they wanted to spend the evening. And I wish that Ken Bloom had shown up (with reservations, though; explanation on the way, hang on). But that's about where my negative impressions of the- Festival end. It would be more misleading than accurate to spout any inspiring homilies about the Festival as an affirmation that folk music in Buffalo hasn't been swamped under the tidal waves of jazz, disco, and heavy metal. (For a start, a good deal of the Buffalo folk scene goes back to New York City every summer.) Still, with the weekend Coffeehouses doing generally well but nevertheless not extremely certain of their acceptance by the public, it was encouraging to see the Festival concerts sell out the first night, and come very close to doing so the second. Encouraging? Even the people who just came to see Leon Redbone or Michael Cooney got some exposure to several people who were close to and who came off very well unknown to them indeed. It was a lot like the way the first Mini-Folk Festival went in November ofy'74; the "names" were at their best, everyone else on the bill rose to the occasion, and things leveled out at a high mark of excellence. — . §• Fairy tales can come true I have a Ruby Keeler go-on-in-place-of-thebroken-legged star story to tell. Scene: the Saturday night concert, with Ken Bloom unexplainably absent. A friend of Owen McBride's from England came to the Festival to see Owen play; his name, Mike Harding, a popular singer in Britain in his own right. Responding to an eleventh-hour appeal to fill in, he agreed, and proceeded to tear the house apart. He’s a thoroughly professional performer, full of the boisterous, blustering humor of the London music hall, leavened by modern urbanity. In moments, the whole room was singing along on a song whose chorus consisted entirely of "nyah," gleefully groaning to some truly horrid jokes ("To all hello"), of the nymphomaniacs in the audience and joyfully watching him deal with a beery heckler 'is cage"). (" 'E's only 'ere cause they're cleaning The verdict of the delighted audience: get this man here for a real gig! Literally, Mike wa the Festival's most talked-about performer. Not that anyone else was exactly left in the dust. Debby McClatchy's range is formidable, from Ireland to Nashville to Appalachia.

Everyone connected with the Festival was identifiable by the name tags on their chests (or, in Bob White's case, in his hat band). All but Redbone; it's impossible to mistake him for anyone else.

Flash-paper fire at his fingertips, tight and intricate Reverend Gary Davis-style guitar knitting up his 20's and 30's blues/jazz reincarnations that conjure illusory surface noise in the background. Old friends, new grass Some familiar Coffeehouse faces did their customary turns. Michael Cooney was, well, Michael Cooney, polished, eclectic and delightful, especially in his two-story songs "The Arkansas Traveler" and "Cumberland Mountain Bear Chase." Bill Staines provided His enjoyable blend of original songs, breathtaking yodeling (as much from himself as the audience), and the inimitable (thank God) "Staines Trumpet Concerto" which, as you know, is done without benefit of trumpet. The most contradictory feelings were brought out by Saturday's closers, the bluegrass Good Old Boys. Mandolinist Frank Wakefield, faith-healed from a tumor some years back, alternated a somewhat overdone down-home humility with an occasional bit of soft-sell evangelism; he could recite the Bhagavad-Gita for all I care, as long as he plays the mandolin the way he does, both in the grass idiom and his own experimental instrumentals which leave finger marks on the scruff of your neck. I'm happy to report that Billy Hamilton's Bluegrass Almanac has tightened up considerably in recent months, having added a flashy young mandolinist to allow Hamilton to move to the fiddle. They came off better by a good length than Dr. Zaroon's Amazing Breathing Machine, a bunch of good musicians who swamp their music in stage trashiness and Jim-Kweskin-Jug-Band mannerisms. Pieces of time Moments . . . many moments Offstage: Hamilton's band going through "Orange Blossom Special" on one side, Owen McBride and friends singing British ballads on the other; the mixture was beautiful in its contrast. Bob Rodriguez demonstrating a strange — — "pocket instrument" — his mouth — by tapping on the sides of it and playing everything from "Pop Gpes The Weasel" to "The William Tell Overture." .(This just after Debby McClatchy teaching a. dozen semi-flabbergasted onlookers how to play the spoons.) Brainstorming in—ii Name confusion was understandable, what with Bryan Bowers and Brian Bauer both on the Friday night program. Let's clear it up now; Bowers is the Segovia of the autoharp (that push-button zither that only a half-dozen musicians can play interestingly); in both his playing and acapella singing, his enthusiasm and, by damn, happines.s were gloriously irresistable. Bauer is the clarinet hound who masterminds Dr. Jazz and the Ukelele Ladies, fast becoming the hottest thing on the local folk scene with their blend of ragtime hokum and Dixieland blues, tacky costuming (everything from Hawaiian leis to tinfoil Bob White tossing a surprise into a fine set of a great sea Carter Family and railroading songs shanty "Save Your Money When You're Young."

And the Dirtwater Fox, because of his easy-going personality, talks himself out of sticky situations like any good comic hero should. Although the plot could have been conjured up 20 or 30 years ago, the language used is definitely 1970's-ish; the Duchess and the Dirtwater Fox refer to certain characters as "el "asshole," and the profuse use of profanity throughout the film might make some parents wary of sending their kids to see it. So, if we take pleasure in the conventional material which Hollywood can always pull from its mythological nose-bag, and if we take pleasure in seeing how this mythology can be rendered to fit new times and new stars, then we may take some pleasure in this cinematic dish of plastic fruit.

Bernstein (Simon & Schuster, 456 pp.), which appeared in Newsweek, 5 April the first of a two-part series. Originally slated to be released next month. The Final Days is now available at local bookstores. — When the TV serial Rich Man, Poor Man ended a few weeks ago, the public needed something to fill the void. Newsweek came to the rescue with selections from The Final Days', it is a Dickensian-style magazine serialization of the as dramatic and ominous "unmaking of as its title, a systematic stripping away of one man's dignity and privacy. In short, a Fletcher Knebel novel come true. The Newsweek selections read like a novel, and a rather racy one at that. The accompanying artistic renderings of dramatic moments provide peep-hole glimpses through the closed doors of the White House. The Final Days will be good, fast, provocative reading; the only thing wrong is that its authors seem to have assumed the role of omniscient novelists, claiming at the same time to be objective reporters. In the news story preceding the first magazine installment, Newsweek reporter Peter Goldman describes the work as "principally an act of reporting, carefully unjudgemental in tone; its power instead lies in its camera-eye view of the state of Nixon and his beleaguered Presidency in its last long slide from grace." If, in fact. Woodward and Bernstein are "carefully unjudgemental in tone," they do not let this get in the way of good drama; by skillfully editing the observations of their 694 characters, the authors have created a kind of narrative "voice-under" instead of merely relying on a reporter's typical narrative convention a kind of — voice-over. I ■ | | ■ Dear Friend: In accordance with Jewish Law, all "Chometz" (Leavening or derivatives of same) may not be in the possession of a Jew during the Passover Holiday. This includes breads, cakes, noodles, cereals & most alcoholic beverages etc. Therefore, it is traditional, that a Rabbi is made an agent to sell all "Chometz" to a non-Jew for the Passover Holiday. You can make this arrangement by signing and mailing the attached note to CHABAD HOUSE. There is, of course no charge for this service. I hereby appoint Rabbi Heshel Greenberg (or his agent) as my agent to sell all "Chometz" (leavening etc.) that is in my ■ possession. i I I ■ If the excerpts are any indication, Woodward and Bernstein have crafted a smooth narrative in The Final Days', from the paraphrased observations of all the people they interviewed, overlaid with direct quotations and pieces of the transcripted Watergate tapes to provide an air of veracity. They neatly steer clear of libel by sprinkling the narrative with insulating words:, Maybe he'd [the President] follow through on his often-repeated threat he would burn the tapes and resign . Nixon seemed to be trying to reach out to — | . ■ — [Italics mine] NAME What is more: this manner of narration is cleverly subtle in the way it suggests what it cannot without danger assert. In a casual literary manner, for instance, we are made to watch the President with ADDRESS • I CITY PHONE DATE SIGNATURE Henry Kissinger: Send this note to CHABAD HOUSE, 3292 Main St. Buffalo, N.Y. 14214, to ARRIVE before April 10, 1976 or at the very latest April 13, 1976.

NO TE: If "Chometz" has not been sold it must be destroyed before Passover. For more informatin regarding all laws pertaining to Passover, call Rabbi Guary at 833-8334 or Rabbi Greenberg at 837-2320. Before long Woodward and Bernstein turn the bottle upside down, in effect, by telling us “the President was slurring his words. He was drunk." And after the Supreme Court ordered the President to turn over 64 subpoenaed tapes to Judge Sirica: Prodigal Sun m J [Italics mine] . each person as if to convince himself that this was his team, Harlow thought . .'1 don't have a pistol,' the President said sadly, as if it were one more deprivation in a long history of underpriviledge. As if he were asking to be given one. . I Ronald Ziegler, the President's press secretary watched the televised announcement of the Supreme Court decision from his suite at the Surf and Sand overlooking the Pacific. As the morning breakers crashed a hundred yards below his window, he scratched some notes on a yellow legal pad. He knew he would be spending the morning with the President, fashioning some response. Nixon would drown him with requests for more and more information, for alternatives. Such figurative language is really the precinct of the novelist, not the reporter. Unlike journalists, novelists create new worlds and have the power to define natural relationships. By employing a style closer to fiction than reportage, Woodward and Bernstein frequently defy every law of objectivity. The Final Days promises to be a psychoanalysis, after the fact, of an unraveling man. Piece by obvious piece, Richard Nixon is laid out on the analyst's couch: Buzhardt believed he had seen Nixon with his defenses peeled away. The tapes provided a dark, almost Dostoevskian journey into Nixon's fears, obsessions, hostilities, passions and inadequacies. Simon was reminded of a wind-up doll, mechanically making gestures with no thought as to their meaning. Haig said the President was a battered man, strained to his limit. He compared Nixon's distraught behavior to that of Captain Queeg, the erratic Naval officer in The Caine Mutiny. —Anita Finkelstein Friday, 9 April 1976 The Spectrum .

Prodigal Sun �Kleinhcms concert Peter Frampton is alive and welland number 1 Peter Frampton is gleefully surfing the cresting tidal wave of his current popularity. Rolling Stone Magazine has emblazoned his pretty features on its cover in its current issue and Peter's latest outing. Frampton Comes Alive, is numero uno with a bullet on most charts. Recording pundits and hype masters would have you believe Frampton is the star of the seventies. Certainly, as of now, on the strength of his popular appeal and financial solvency, all indices seem to point in that direction. But what about Frampton's artistry? Just why is Frampton enjoying this deluge of adoration, acceptance, and applause from a diverse audience that spans the pubescent pack to the somewhat maturer college crowd. There is no doubt that Frampton has persistently labored at cultivating a following which would springboard him into the limelight. Constant touring and five albums have, like a tenacious title contender, finally brought Peter to the summit. But why? Somehwere in this sea of rhetorical questions floats an answer. Perhaps the answer can be found by delving into the psychology behind the release of Frampton Comas Alive. Peter saw that the time was right to place most of his chips on a live album that would a number of things accomplish Right off the bat it simultaneously. wouldn't entail a strain on Frampton's creative powers in coming up with new material. The best of his old material could be packaged in a greatest hits form except it would have the distinction of being in presented a live format. Any semi-studious pupil of rock knows the output monsters. FCA not only appeals to the legions who were present at the recorded gigs but allows fans unfamiliar with his early work to catch up just by buying the new album. This finely wrought strategy is FCA is a soundtrack of greatest hits complete with an audience that cheers, whistles and screams as if they were primed with amphetamine or potential bozos ready to devour Monty Hall on the set of "Letf's Make A Deal." Frampton's acoustic numbers are so often swamped in the audience's verbal overload that it distracts from the performance at hand. The production is too uni-dimensional and flat. Frampton's band hardly distinguishes itself and instead it settles into a rut of stolid mediocrity. Particularly irksome is John Siomos' constant reliance on his unimaginative cymbal playing. Frampton Occasionally unleashes an worth the hardly run but it is inspiring through to wade this or time price collection to ferret out. The ballads taken from Wind of Change come off sounding pale and fatigued on FCA. Frampton even makes the mistake of trying to stretch "Do You Feel Like We Do" in a 17 minute opus. The result is a primer in cliche ridden rock jamming. It falls flat on its face. paying huge dividends. Frampton's most ingenious works are his early albums. Wind of Change and Frampton's Camel. Wind of Change is an ethereal yet snappy Ip that captures Frampton's best songs with crisp vibrant studio and a star-studded cast. Peter's forte is his airy and jazz oriented guitar lines which forsake the oversaturated market of heavy metal masturbation. Something’s Happening and Frampton are not nearly as good as Peter's first two outings. Frampton's ideas grew stale and this is pointedly indicated by his tune "Doobie Wah"; a tribute to and steal from the Doobie Brothers. Peter's lyrics which have always bordered on the embarrassing have now become maudlin and sentimentally swept away. The quality facets of his music have been scrapped for a common denominator approach. Frampton's artistry has been moving squarely towards the middle of the road. His music is now as safe and challenging as a G-rated picture crafted by Disney. Frampton has found his market. The lure of FCA owes a lot to the current paucity of good commercial talent. Frampton has cleverly managed to fuse a large part of his FM flock with the more commercial crassness of an ever burgeoning AM army of loyalists. What is a tremendous coup in sales has left a cancerous blotch on Frampton's recorded production performances impact of a well-timed, live recording. After all, the Allman's Live at the Fillmore was the catalytic agent for their success. More immediate to Peter's own frame of reference was Humble Pie's Rockin' the Fillmore record which thrusted the Pie from relative obscurity into momentary by Frampton has made things entirely too and himself tension, little consequently at work here. If you creativity, or surprise icon the more a guitar are looking for be of choice would Nelson Bill appropriate Be Bop Deluxe. Sunburst Finish has FCA thoroughly outclassed. It is somewhat annoying to realize that FCA is being critically received. The. album is nothing more than cake for the masses. Those who need it are eating it.

Stampede, their pevvious and best album, was a culmination of out-and-out rockers and countrified ballads that gets a workout on my turntable at least two to three times a week. Every couple of songs had a different person doing the string arrangements (including Curtis Mayfield), which accounts for a pleasant variability. Takin' It to the Streets is a complete about-face no strings, the return of the Memphis Horns (last heard on What Were Once Vices, and the addition of Michael McDonald, formerly a studio backup singer. All these moves are disastrous. The biggest mistake was letting McDonald write half of the material on the album and then sing it. First of all, he doesn't write the songs the Doobies are known for. He writes pretentious ballads that aren't the slice-of life folkies done on the previous Doobie efforts. Second, McDonald should remain a background singer because his lead vocals are too muffled and aren't exactly the most stimulating to listen to. The Memphis Horns are good accompaniment, especially in concert, but they are not needed for the entire album-. Some of the tunes that are played need strings to give them a sweet effect which they need. A few of the songs, besides being corny, have arrangements that are just bad. "It Keeps You Runnin'" (a McDonald composition, of course) sounds pretty stupio with the "up and down clavinet effect that is used throughout the song. "Rio" gets bogged down with a schmaltz arrangement that reminds me of the Mann-Weill hit "On Broadway." But what gets the Doobie Booby Prize is "Carry Me Away," a cliche tune about the "new sound of St. Louis jazz in 1959." It ends off with a clarinet solo to remind us of the type of •4 - Un-cola man stages his effervescenc The University Office of Cultural Affairs and Studio Arena Theatre wrap up their Spotlight Series with a performance by Geoffrey Holder, best known to American audiences as TV's Un-Cola man. Holder achieved national prominance, as well, by winning Tony awards for the direction and costume design of the Broadway smash musical. Wiz. Holder first came to New York from Trinidad in 1953 with his own folk dance company, and the following year danced on Broadway in Truman Capote's House of Flowers. His paintings hang in Washington's Corcoran Gallery, as well as in the homes of such luminaries as Marietta Tree, Lena Horne, and William F. Buckley. For two years Holder was principal dancer of the Metropolitan Opera Ballet, and has choreographed works for the Dance Theatre of Harlem and Alvin Ailey; in August he will mount a new ballet for Mexico City's Ballet Folklorico. He has appeared on film in the James Bond advanture, Live and Let Die, and Rex Harrison's Doctor Doolittle. He has also acted extensively on TV (besides winning the Clio award for his Un-Cola commercial), and has served as guest theatre critic for NBC-TV news. Holder is author of two books, one a re telling of West Indian legends, and the other a Caribbean cookbook, which he illustrated himself.

What's going on? The two best cuts on the album, "Wheels of Fortune" and "Eighth Avenue Shuffle," are what I have come to know the Doobie Brothers for heavy driving percussion, smooth gliding guitars and intertwining vocals. Why couldn't they do this on the other seven cuts instead of messing around with — inappropriate styles? Takin' It to the Streets is one of the few albums that makes me downright mad. A group like the Doobie Brothers shouldn't be in this sort of predicament. Someone made the wrong decisions and did them in.

PDQ Bach play to horror of audience M by Karen Szczepanski Spectrum Arts Staff . / <3$^ oik Professor Peter Schickele was in town last Friday night, to enlighten local audiences as to the worth of P.D.Q. Bach, unknown twentieth son of J.S. (especially to J.S.). If Kleinhans Hall and the Buffalo Philharmonic are still operating in his wake, P.D.Q. certainly isn't to blame. The first composition, the "Desecration of the House" Overture (S. 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1) was canceled because the sheet music had been sucked up into the air-conditioning unit and was circulating around the building somewhere. It later appeared (floating down from the vents) during the third number. The "Hincfenburg" concerto (S. 3-3-3), a similar disaster, featured a sand-block solo in the "allegro gigantico" section and a flute-tuba duet in the "presto so-so" section. The middle "largo pericoloso" (dangerously slo ) section was filled with rests so long that one was unsure when the end had finally come. Dogs and gurus A rare treat for many music-lovers was the Canine Cantata: "Wachet Arf!" (Sleeping Dogs Awake!") (S.K9), with hounden-tenor Dietrich Fischer-Bauau. As Prof. Schickele explained, animals were once a part of every orchestra, although in recent years the practice has declined somewhat. Although the houndentenor slept through most of the Arietta, "Ach! we, ach! we," he gave a stunning performance of the aria "Bau! Wau!" and a truly lamentable rendition of the Lamento "Au!". After a much-needed intermission, the program commenced with Echo Sonata for Two Unfriendly Groups of Instruments (S. 999999999). A group including flute, bassoon, and clarinet, which was situated on the stage, was answered (and sometimes ignored) by a trombone and French Horn situated on the balcony. The literal interpretation of the term "unfriendly" in this piece resulted in the stage manager levelling a shotgun at the group on the balcony. (This was quite uncalled for. After all, what do these swine know about artistic interpretation?) solo The much longed-for final piece was the infamous Concerto for Bassoon Versus Orchestra (S. 8'). Although bassoon solos are rare, a competent bassoonist could not be found who would agree to play this piece. Undaunted, Professor Schickele learned to play the bassoon in five days, and performed the solo himself. Defects in the Professor's bassoon kept the audience from noticing how horridly the orchestra was playing in the "break allegro" and "not-so-fast" sections. Unfortunately the bassoon was fixed in time, for the "rondo alia turkey lurkey" section. The Professor's playing really brought the house down, as angry music lovers grabbed seats and other objects to Schickele throw at the stage. All in all, a quiet dignified evening at Kleinhans.

If they would be they would never have needed that kind of weapon." The rest of the album is slow paced. Harris sings the song "Talking to Myself" in a very mellow style. Many other performers sing this song too. It must be a good song to use as filler material. The last song on the album, "What's the use in the Truth," has a particularly striking melody. The first time I heard it on the radio, it stuck in my mind all day. "What's the use in the truth if you can’t tell a lie sometime?" It gives you a lot to think about.

As soon as you hear the first song on the album, "Movin' you can't help but nod your head or tap your you have to do fingers; something! This is a brand new group with a genuinely unique sound. I think the group will go far. The group purposely gives all their songs a one word title "Movin'", "Peeklii'," "Changing," "Love," "Talking," and "Dance." Each song seems to give you a personal invitation to jam with Brass Construction. The group consists of nine talented brothers. Each possesses the skill of playing at least one instrument and singing vocals. Randy Muller not only arranged the album, but he plays all an album. Although the album features Danny Kortchmar on guitar and , Jim Keltner on drums, the disc is far from another folk-countryrock release. Instead, these alumni of albums ranging from Wind on the Water to Clapton to explore the current rage of jazz and soul. with bassist Paul Along Stallworth and keyboardman David Foster, Keltner and Kootch try to develop a sound quite removed from the usual realm of their musical world. It comes off sounding like a cross between the Average White Band and one of those "Order now and receive the great disco hits of the seventies." The Average White Band influence is most welcome when it appears, because for the most part, this album is a bore. This is the unfortunate, because themselves musicians have proven own * capable in other extremely conditions. Female background vocalists have been employed on several tracks, and they sound like Merry Clayton lost in a deep well.

This chore should be left up to those who have experienced such a life. There are also several instrumentals that are strictly repetitious disco blight; good for the dance floor but not something you would sit down and listen to along with Earth, Wind and Fire or War. The only person who manages to shine through this muddle is drummer Keltner. He is, without a doubt, one of the best rock drummers. Ordinarily anyone who could handle both Carly Simon and George Harrison would come through with flying colors, but here he manages only to keep the going. album Instead of Clapton, an Eric cqmplementihg Keltner must lead the group. Keltner just can't carry the weight single-handedly. With luck, the album may receive some publicity by means of the club scene. It would be acceptable in many a disco.

During 1975, power use jumped only 3 percent, but residential use and percent climbed 4.2 use rose 5.6 percent. commercial These increases were offset by a 12.3 percent decline in industrial use which Green attributed to the recession.

He urged delay to give the capacity problem futher study. Komanoff also said conservation was a more promising approach than Wood and Green suggested. According to Romanoffs figures, electrical power consumption jumped 7-8 percent in the first half of 1975, but in the second half, when of nuclear reactors consumers presumable had time to begin adjusting to higher fuel and power costs by replacing older -appliances and industrial with more equipment energy-efficient models, consumption rose only 2 percent. Resnikoff followed with an analysis of fuel costs, which make up 25 percent of the cost of nuclear energy. He said costs are “rising precipitously,” citing a jump from seven dollars a pound for processed “yellowcake” uranium in the early 1970’s to the current market price of over $40 a pound. Resnikoff also predicted both short-term and long-term supply problems leading to further cost increases. increase to $750 million, the total costs close to dollars. these Following all four presentations, remarks, further gave elaborating in previous and fielded questions well-prepared The debate ended without; reaching a settlement, reminding on£ of George Bernard Shaw’s aphorism: faIf you took all the economists in the world and laid them end to end they still wouldn’t reach a conclusion.” small, audiervtk. bringing a billion initial speakers mostly figures, from a At the “back end” of the fuel cycle, the reprocessing end, Resnikoff said, the problems were even greater. “There are no [reprocessing] plants presently operating in this country,” he said, which has forced nuclear plant operators to increase the capacity of their muclear storage pools at great cost to handle this “nuclear constipation problem.” He expressed skepticism that reprocessing plants would ever be feasible, citing the Barnwell South Carolina plant Jointly owned Allied Chemical and Golf Atomic.

Schwartz sat motionless throughout most of the meeting, but claimed he was prepared to defend the ailing Speigel if he had been faced with physical violence. The resolution, which would have also required SA to give its political and financial support to an on-going strike, was introduced by Vice President for Sub Board Jon Rollor. Roller said he had not decided whether the on-going strike was a good idea, or whether he would support it. But he sard he introduced the resolution because he knew “it probably wouldn’t have made it otherwise,” and wanted to encourage discussion. Representation Roller asked the students and Senators to assess the one-day strike. ‘‘How effective were we? How well did we get our demands across? How effective would an on-going strike be?” , —continued from page 1— . . . “Neither the Senate nor the Coalition can claim to represent that mass of 13,000 students who aren’t here,” he insisted. Members of the Coalition, however, seemed to feel that the “apathetic” students should not be considered, and that the Senate should base its vote on those present who supported a strike. “We’re the ones who care about our education!” an onlooker called from the back of the room. Charges were made by several students that the Coalition is not an open organization. Senator David Brownstein felt his ideas were “quashed” at the Coalition meeting he attended. “My opinions weren’t listened to. Why the hell should i go to another Coalition meeting?” Senator Andrea Gableman criticized the wording of the resolution, which stated, “in a mass meeting today, we the undergraduate* students of SUNYAB have voted overwhelmingly in support of a prolonged student strike to win our demands.” “1 am an undergraduate student,” Gableman said. “I wasn’t at any mass meeting. I want to know what makes them (the Coalition) think they’re so representative.” Coalition members countered by insisting that their meetings, including the rally, were open to anyone and all opinions were considered. Rollor eventually voted against the prolonged strike. Most of the points he had hoped to discuss were not mentioned again, or only lightly touched upon. In analyzing the Senate’s overwhelming rejection of a continued strike, one observer recalled last year's Student Assembly. “The Senate is a better of people and cross-section representation than the Assembly was,” she said. “The special-interest groups are represented, but so are many groups who can swing either way on an issue.” Schwartz said before the meeting ended that he could not accept the Coalition’s position that students not actively opposing cutbacks should not be considered. “I don’t think the Senate has the power or the right to throw the results out,” he said.

Friday, 9 April 1976 . �Values must change Manipulatory efforts Antagonizing behavior To the Editor: To the Editor: To the Editor. In response to the Guest Opinion of 4/5/76 by Robert Dowrey: 1. Please do not suppose that Stephen Knaster has never contributed to wildlife concerns. Perhaps he, like many of us non-hunters, give whatever money we can spare to such causes in addition to the time spent writing letters to legislators, protesting current issues like the slaughter of whales, and trying to make our daily lives an example to others. I also fail to see the reason why a person, not able to afford charitable contributions and/or who cannot spare the time from survival to publicize his o.r her views, is not entitled to an opinion which differs from yours. We do not pay for the privilege of expressing opinions in this country. 2. There are areas of severe over-population of some species in certain places. Disease and famine among the animals is frequently the result. Instead of exhausting all other alternatives, the solution has often beer to automatically kill them. The relocation of females, one such alternative, has been done successfully; the problem, of course, is that killing them is much easier in terms of time and I would like to take this opportunity to call to the attention of the students of this University that they have the right to express their opinions, and the right to vote, especially on a question of a student strike which directly effects all of us. The Spectrum and the Coalition would deny these rights to those students who disagree with their views. Both. The Spectrum and the Coalition have expressed their desire for a strike. The Student Association has chosen to be impartial, to conduct a Student referendum, and to follow the expressed wishes of the students. If we as students are to decide to have a strike, can we deny this decision will affect all of us, should we deny the right to partake in the decision-process to those who are not in favor of the question? Yet both The Spectrum and the Coalition feel those students who were not in favor of the strike should have no voice in determining its’ length. It was my understanding that if the majority favored the strike, then all students would be expected to support and participate in it. If we are asking students to involve themselves in a united effort, then all of these students have the right to decide the length of such an action. To deny the right to vote to students who have a direct interest in the results of a referendum is not democracy, but money. Over population is often caused by the spread of settlements which pushes the animal population into smaller and smaller spaces. We can continue to do this, thereby, furnishing an ongoing excuse to save the poor animals from starvation by killing them, or, we can control our own growth and do all we can to repair the damage already done to our envifbnment in the name of progress. I would not choose to kill the starving hoards in Calcutta in order to save them. Would you, Mr. Dowrey? Values must change. There is a promising rise in the numbers of vegetarians and those who in general arc looking for ways to live that are not necessarily the easiest or cheapest or most profit making. I agree with you that there is an hypocricy involved in those who eat the flesh of butchered animals, yet argue with you over your right to hunt. 3. You mention that hunting is a “relaxing sport” and I will infer that you enjoy it. (Correct me if I’m wrong.) I have the least argument with those who hunt for survival in an environment that does not furnish enough alternatives to the protein required for health. If 1 found myself in such a position, I too would probably hunt. The difference, Mr. Dowrey, is that I would not enjoy it. I would always be aware that I was taking a life to extend my own, and consequently would respect it, not waste it, grieve my necessity and thank God for the opportunity to survive. I am grateful everyday that 1 can maintain my health and not eat meat, througn the abundance of other food available in the U.S. You feel differently than 1 do. 1 must decide to what extent I should push my views on you and others, or infringe on your desire to kill. I would indeed have to keep my views to myself if only the rights of the two of us were involved. But there is a massive third party present that has the right to live ju: t as we do. When we recognize this (and it took me a long time and a lot of internal conflict to accept this), a deer or a baby seal will no longer be regarded as objects of sport, like footballs, or as means to satisfy the selfish habits of meat-eating and human • manipulation. — fur-wearing human beings. Steve Spiegel Executive Vice President Student Association Be a citizen Well, now that it’s over, what was done? 1 mean the strike. Other than skipping classes to enjoy a what was accomplished? beautiful spring day Nothing! Unless your hand is squeezing someone’s wallet, a strike has no effect. Does Ketter care if we miss classes? No. Does Albany care? No. Do the legislators who made the cuts care? No. We all made a big noise and raised a lot of ruckus here on campus to show we care but how does that help? As The Spectrum quoted Richard Siggelkow, “This type of procedure doesn’t usually have much effect on the legislature. I think it is self-defeating. We encourage any appropriate form of dissent.” Let’s make ourselves heard in a way that can’t be ignored. If everyone was willing to contribute write a letter to Carey and one $.26 to save $100 legislator. Instead of being a “student” be a citizen. You’re a voter make your wishes known.

In the 17 years of Oakstone Farm’s history, only one resident has left before the end of the first semester.

But next year there will be more unless we act now. — Brian Douglas before you Look expressed We would like to correct seyeral misstatements which appeared in the unsigned letter published here last Monday. Oakstone Farm is not a boarding house and has no landlord. It is a small community of scholars and students dedicated to the principle that a total living experience, including disciplined conversation, is essential to the learning process. We try to be radically honest about our assumptions and open to others’ scrutiny. We share in the maintenance of the physical plant, an education in itself, and take on the Such absurdities which took place at this “I did not vote in the Student Association elections; and your Executive Committee is not representative of the action that I would like to see take place.” Listen, if you don’t get off your ass to vote, you have no right to criticize the manner in which the S.A. is handling this matter. Furthermore, to the people who feel that a crowded Haas Lounge is representative of you are dead wrong. 700 13,000 undergraduates people do not dictate what the other 13,000 will do. To top off the afternoon, the ignorance of one student who took it upon himself to verbally antagonize one student senator upon her vote of not to continue the strike, further reinforced my feeling that the Student Association was justified to call the meeting to an end and to call an end to the strike. meeting was the person who said — leap This letter is in response to another former resident’s letter concerning Oakstone Farm that appeared in The Spectrum on Monday, April 5." 1 find myself in total agreement with the sentiments of fact harassment).

Rather than being the combined * the Farm and its proprietor, Mr. Ketchum. Mr. Ketchum, offering students the prospect of enriched education, a rural environment, and dinnertable conversation that will make their heads spin (and their stomachs turn), plainly seeks to dominate them in an authoritarian manner, always asserting that he has their best interests at heart. In the past, he has never really clearly defined his relationship to and actual status in the University. His elaborate pamphlets and propaganda techniques have led unwary students to believe that the University is in full approval of all his activities and sanctions his Farm without reserve. Indeed, it has led many to believe that the Farm itself is part and parcel of the University. Let’s clear the air a bit. Mr. Ketchum is only a graduate student at the University who teaches a four credit seminar as pari of his Fellowship responsibilities. Although the seminar is often taught at his residence, Oakstone Farm is not adjunct to the University. I ask those people entertaining thoughts of Mr. Ketchum’s Farm as an alternative living-learning experience to be very careful in the selection of Oakstone as representative of the alternative that they truly desire. Ask yourself a simple question, but ask it more than once. Why would a 45-year-old graduate student seek to live with younger students, 20 years of age?

For Mr. Reagan, the loss means that he will simply maintain his number two status in the polls, and that Mr. Ford will now open up a 167 delegate lead in the race toward the final tournament in Kansas City this August. On the Democratic side, Tuesday was a night of surprises in the Wisconsin Open as well as the New York Classic. In Wisconsin, Morris Udall, still seeking his first tour victory was nosed out by a great stretch drive by Jimmy Carter. Carter, leading the league in most wins by a candidate for 1976, scored a narrow 37-36 win over Udall. Also finishing were Number Four ranked George Wallace, number Henry Jackson, two ranked franchise Ellen expansion McCormick, Number Five ranked Fred Harris and unranked Bentsen, independents Lloyd Birch Bayh, Milton Shapp and Sargent Shriver. But in New York, things were tougher for Carter. He was easily disposed of in the Classic by both Udall and Jackson. Hubert Humphrey, who by maintaining amateur status cannot receive any delegate points but can compete for personal satisfaction, also outscored Carter. In fact, Carter managed only 33 delegate points in New York, considerably less than Udall’s 69, and Jackson’s tournament-high score of 107. Although no official tally was that kept, estimates showed Humphrey finished with a score of 34 in New York. The Democratic League standings really tightened up after Tuesday’s action. Carter is still on top, but Jackson, Udall and Wallace are all closing. Also, rumor has it that Humphrey may shed his amateur status in time for League the Democratic championship tourney in New York this July. Carter was not disappointed with his poor showing in New York. He explained that his mind simply wasn’t on the New York Classic. He spent only about $150,000 on training expenses for the classic, and he admitted that he entered the tourney just to keep his handshaking in good condition for future tournaments. Meanwhile, at the Essex Hotel and Pr«T Shop, New York victor Henry Jackson fielded questions from an enthusiastic press corps. We now have a special report from Murray the where Essex by/ Fleischmah is standing Murray, are you there? “This is Murray Fleischman at the Essex House and Pro Shop here in midtown Manhattan. I’m having trouble hearing, what with the thousands of loyal Jackson fans chanting ‘Scoop! Scoop! but I think I can get the Senator over to the camera for just a minute. Senator Jackson, now that you’ve won the big New York Classic, are you looking toward a victory back here in Manhattan this July for the League Democratic Championship?” I’m very Murray, “Well, satisfied with this win and some of my confidence is coming back. I played well under pressure because I had to have this one to stay close to the top. But as for the nationals, well, I’m not really considering them yet. I like to take these tournaments one at a time. I’m going to be heading down to Pennsylvania for the I.W. Abel Pennsylvania Open in three weeks. I plan on doing a lot of training for that one, perhaps as much as $500,000 worth.

They've got a long way to go. In a world that isn't easy. But with someone's help, they'll make it. What they need is a friend. Someone to act as confidant and guide. Perhaps, it could be you as a Salesian Priest or Brother. The Salesians of St. John Bosco were founded in 1859 to serve youth. Unlike other orders whose apostolate has changed with varying conditions, the Salesians always have been and will be, youth oriented. Today we’re helping to prepare youngsters for the world that awaits them tomorrow. Not an easy task but one which we welcome. And how do we go about It? By following the precepts of our founder, Don Bosco. To crowd out evil with reason, religion and Kindness with a method of play, learn and pray. We’re trying to build better communities by helping to create better men. As a Salesian, you are guaranteed the chance to help the young in a wide range of endeavor... as guidance counselors, technical and academic teachers, as coaches, psychologists in boys clubs, summer camps as missionaries. And you are given the kind of training you need to achieve your aims. The Salesian family is a large one (we are the third largest order) but a warm one. A community with an enthusiastic family feeling where not only our talents are shared but our shortcomings, too. If you feel as we do, that service to youth can be an important mission in your life, we welcome your interest. — TRAFALMADORE CAFE — female summer subletters for beautiful, spacious house on Minnesota Ave. (5 minutes from campus ) Includes washing machine, $50 plus.

There was little correlation that could be drawn between the number of people picketing and the number who simply stayed away from classes. Over 100 people, according to Coalition and outside observers, stood on the picket lines in groups of threes and fours, beating signs urging students not to go to class. If students had to attend class, they were asked to wear decals stating; “I am under duress,” to show their support for the strike while in class. Reactions vary Reactions to the pickets and to the strike in general varied. Although many people entering Norton Union yesterday morning were doubtful of the effects of the strike, most seemed sympathetic to the strikers’ efforts. A good number of students in terviewed Wednesday morning said they were staying out of at least one class in support of the strike, but attending those classes they deemed most important or in which tests were being given. “I don’t think it will accomplish anything.” said one Cafeteria, early morning coffee drinker in Norton Union “apathetic about the strike situation.” At 9:45 a.m., picketers outside Faber said that “student response is poor.” “Many people are being nasty,” said one striker. “They disagree completely with the strike.” But he said Farber building employees did express their sympathy for the strike. Duress decals A picketer in front of Acheson said that almost half the students there were taking the “I am under duress’’ decals, but that the classes, hallways and walkways in and around the building looked crowded. Exactly how many students stayed out of classes and away from the Main Street Campus is difficult to determine. Haas Lounge, normally very crowded at 9:30 a.m., was three quarters empty at that time yesterday. There were many seats available in the main floor cafeteria of Norton Hall, which is never the case during weekday morning hours. Employees at the candy counter in Norton Hall noted, “It is much slower here this morning. There was nobody waiting on line when we opened up.” There was a noficable absence of corwds yesterday morning at the bus-loading platform next to Diefendorf Annex. Refering to the number of students riding the Effectiveness Spokespeople from the Coalition estimated that the strike was up to 80 oercent effective in shutting down the University. Their estimates were based on reports made by strike marshalls, circling the campus on bicycles. The marshalls confirmed classroom closings in different buildings on campus, noted student response to picketers, kept tabs on the number of students riding the buses, and supplied picketers with signs, leaflets and decals. President Robert Ketter said in response to a question, “In fact, several teachers, those who were taking attendance, noticed that there was no decrease in the number of students in class.” Richard Siggelkow, Vice President for Student Affairs, told a radio reporter, “This type of procedure doesn’t usually have much effect on the legislature. 1 happen to think it is self-defeating, although I do understand why the students feel so strongly. We certainly want to encourage any appropriate form of dissent.” At presstime, Coalition members were preparing for a mass rally in the fountain area behind the Union. “At this rally,” emphasized one Coalition spokesman, “the students will decide if they want a prolonged strike or not.” �Despite no strike vote grad students pleased Members of the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) were satisfied with the results of last week's strike referendum, even though it fell 17 votes short of the 325 required for a walkout. The important thing, they felt, was that an overwhelming majority of Teaching Assistants (TA) and Graduate Assistants (GA) did, in fact, vote to strike. Spokespersons for the GSEU interviewed Monday cited a variety of factors that led to the result, including fears by TAs and GAs over losing jobs, and the late point in the semester in which it was held. One spokesperson stressed that for many TAs and GAs, it was almost impossible to strike without being penalized for such actions. “Some departments really keep their eyes on their students, and in these cases, students wouldn’t get their lines,” he said. Last week’s Reporter, whose headline indicated that unionization would be detrimental to graduate students, was cited as a positive and negative factor in the vote. While GSEU members believe it caused the loss of some affirmative votes, they say it may have also kindled an anger in people that compelled them to vote. One spokesperson stated, right through the article. It was “Most of the people I spoke to Students opinionatedon cuts explained, "Cutbacks are happening all over; isn’t being singled out.

The University signed a contract with the Department of Defense to construct Project Themis on this campus in order to conduct research on man’s ability to perform tasks underwater for military purposes. Because of the growing opposition to U.S. involvement in Vietnam, student groups, such as Students for a Democratic Society, were working to terminate all military-related work at the University. When the Buffalo Police entered Gark Hall, the students on the basketball court decided to leave peacefully, and some went over to Hayes Hall to confront Acting President Regan over the issue of armed police on campus. In 1969, students took over Hayes Hall for one day and night, to protest the war and the .University’s complicity with it, and Were forced out in the morning by hundreds of armed Buffalo Police. Following that event, a committee of students, facut and administrators convened to settle disputes before the city police intervened. Rock thrown With police still on campus, a crowd of about S00 students formed in front of Norton Hall near Cooke and Tower Halls. Sporadic fighting between the students and cops took place for a couple of hours, while windows in several University buildings were broken.

Our Weekly Reader II The Viking Process Norman Hartley (Simon Schuster, $7.95, 285 pp.) , & lives in terror that Peace will show the film to Julia. Hartley is undoubtedly inventive: Mr. swallowable radio transmitters, Rental Excitement, Guerrilla Week, a portable pyramid whipping frame. And then there is the sex scenario, and Haldoxicon and the Indian Fields scenario, and the graffiti bomb. Oh, the graffiti bomb is beautiful. Russell and another kidnappee a friend of his named Gellman are attending a class for Vikings in explosives and demolition techniques which is being taught by a 15-year-old American girl. She calls the graffiti bomb “the most gorgeous urban guerrilla weapon ever invented.” We can well understand her enthusiasm: you mix a can of a certain brand of talc with water and a lump of plastic explosive, spray it with feminine deodorant spray, and it is armed. For the intense flame necessary to set it off, you use a paint which is part napalm and part phosphorus, ignited by a rifle bullet fired from a distance. The marksman is gone before anyone realizes what happened. Really, it is a very good idea, and the description of this lesson is one of the most delightful sections of the book. Mr. Hartley doesn’t have the art of fiction quite down yet, but it’s safe to say he’ll get there. The Viking Process might have been improved if Hartley had employed an omniscient point of view rather than 'the first person. Too many of Russell’s masked because they emotions and reactions ar could not be credibly stated in the fii$t person. Ah, well. This is not a bad book, and Mr. Hartley shows great promise as a novelist. I eagerly await his next attempt. He need only improve a little If you were to believe the promotional material, The Viking Process is a novel that should have you glued to the pages, hanging onto the edge of your seat. Regrettably, this is not strictly tru&r Since it is his first novel, some of Mr. Hartley’s errors can be excused. But there are added difficulties: he worked for an international wire service for over a decade, so his words form a style not entirely appropriate for a novel; it is perhaps too stark and flat. It is possible to call The Viking Process a science fiction novel, much in the same vein as The Andromeda Strain or Brain, Wave. The basic story is this: Sometime in the not-too-distant future, a British academic authority on terrorism and urban warfare, Philip Russell, is blackmailed very skillfully by a group of very young, dedicated, well-trained and very well-funded terrorists called the Vikings, led by one Simon Peace. They plan to utterly destroy the third largest multi-national corporation in the world. Intermark. Why the Vikings kidnap Russell and hold his wife to insure cooperation is never adequately explained; he Seems to exist only to see Peace use his books to kill people more efficiently. Peace holds Ju.ia Russess somewhere in Scotland. He says he will kill her if Russell does not cooperate but he never tells Russell to do anything. Apparently the Vikings want Russell as their front man, ostensibly the “guerrilla commander” of the Vikings, an imposing figure for the novel to focus its attention on. As it is, Russell sits around for 240 pages mumbling, “Oh, my God! How did I get into this mess?” His answer is that it to be very good. Linda Ruth Pfonner was all his own fault he had been indiscreet with a certain Michelle in Montreal, and he should not have done that. It had not only been a betrayal of Julia, Linda'Ruth Pfonner is a sophomore English major but Michelle had gotten it all on film.

Shortly after the strike, Ketter was named President. 1 Center was established on campus. Additional student demands included an open admissions policy, the creation of an integrated work force by hiring minority workers to build the new campus, and the demand that the new campus be built in downtown Buffalo, and not in Amherst. Mass movement Students and some members from the community attempted to create a Worker’s College, to offer labor oriented courses for the people of Buffalo.

Court will decide on lawsuits against Coop The State Supreme Court will decide within a week whether the Student Association (SA) is a “concerned party” in Cavages’ lawsuit against the University to close the Record Coop. SA, in its court papers, contends that as funding agent, it is the real party of interest.” The Coop may not l>e adequately represented by the other involved parties, the paper explained. SA claims it has an interest in the property at issue and has spent considerable sums of money to “create and maintain” it. If Cavages’ suit is upheld, the money spent by SA would be “irretrievably lost,” the court papers continued. It is widely believed that if the Cavages endangered. suit is successful, several other student services will also be Court to issue a Supreme asked a State In February Cavages temporary injunction to half the operation of the Coop. University Counsel Hilary Bradford said that a successful action would compel a complete shutdown of the Coop. Problems settled When the suit was filed there were several problems to be out before precedings could continue. The University had to decide whether it wanted Bradford, State Department of Education Attorney Walter Relihan, or a member of the office of the State Attorney General to represent them. The State Attorney General’s office was chosen. Another question was whether Cavages has legal standing to sue, Bradford said. In order to sue, a person must be both interested in and concerned with the matter in question according to law, and “aggrieved” or hurt by it. The Coop opened this semester under conditions set by President Robert Ketter which included a yearly sales limitation of $ 120,000 or $10,000 for month. This ceiling was set despite projected revenues of $240,000 according to Bruce Insana, Coop director. He added that these limites do not include sales tax, which amounts to roughly $50 a day. As soon as the daily sales limit is reached, the Coop is closed. The daily sales limit varies monthly depending on the amount of business days in the month. The inventory at the beginning of the semester was $22,000, according to Insana. On October 31, 1975 it stood at $60,000. Additional problems have been caused by the introduction of these restrictions, Insana said. Due to the Coop’s limited hours, students with afternoon classes cannot patronize it, since by the time their classes end, the Coop is closed for the day, he explained. Because of the limited business hours, many of the Coop’s suppliers have difficulties making deliveries, and orders are not received promptly, according to Insana. Deliveries of desired albums are often delayed, so students very often must wait weeks before ordered albums arrive, he added. Working conditions have deteriorated at the Coop, due to crowds caused by its limited operating hours, Insana said. Ineligible for benefits ACLU defending vets given bad discharges The American Civil Liberties Union, long a defender of civil citizens’, is currently taking action on behalf of a number of veterans of the Vietnam War who were given “bad” discharges without ever having been convicted of violating any laws or regulations. The ACLU has taken up more than 150 cases involving veterans who were given general discharges for “character and behavior disorders” while in the service. There are approximately 100,000 vets who would be affected by a victory in just one of these cases. Most of these men were summarily dismissed from the service without the benefit of a trial or hearing. One of the major causes for these bad discharges was protests made within the service, against practices and procedures which the soldiers felt were unfair. Rather than investigate the allegations, the military usually labelled the protesters unstable and gave them dishonorable or undesirable discharges. A consequence of this discharge, for many veterans, was that they became ineligible for medical care from the Veterans Administration. Since there are almost half a million Vietnam vets who received bad discharges, this is a problem which affects thousands of vets with physical disabilities and emotional troubles caused by the war. Discarded and forgotten The case of Thomas Andrews (not his real name) is related by the ACLU as an illustration. Andrews was wounded in Vietnam in 1968 when a mine exploded near him. Fragments were sent into his legs, stomach, chest and head. After the shrapnel was removed from his body, he still could not see out of his right eye, but the Army ignored his protests and placed the 19-year old on active duty in the United States. Andrews went AWOL several times in search of medical and emotional help, and was drummed out of the service without even a hearing. Because he received an undesirable discharge, the VA refused him needed medical services which were necessitated by his wounds. In 1971, Andrews had his right eye removed in a city hospital. The ACLU took up Andrews’ case, and in June of last year, the army was forced to upgrade his discharge to an honorable one, he was awarded a SO percent disability benefit for life, and he will now get the medical treatment he needs, free of charge. This case was a landmark decision in the area of veterans’ rights, one of the ACLU hopes it can follow up in the near future with other favorable decisions. Wednesday, 7 April 1976 . The Spectrum . Page five �Who cares? EditPHa! _ To the Editor: I missed classes again today. Maybe I’ll go tomorrow. Orderly and dignified The campus had a strange aura of tranquility about it yesterday morning. Many classes were half empty, or cancelled, buses between the Amherst and Main St. campuses were only partially filled at the height of tfie morning rush, and there was an unusually sparse gathering of people taking in the warm, sunny day by the Norton fountain area. Yet there were glimpses of activity hire and there to remind us of the significance of the day. Small groups of picketers, carrying signs which said STRIKE or FIGHT THE CUTBACKS, paraded by the various buildings while others handed out leaflets and flyers or stopped by the Coalition headquarters in the Student Association office to find out what they could do to help. Meanwhile, volunteers from SA were manning a voter registration table in the Norton Hall Center Lounge where students could obtain the names of their local legislators and important legislative I wish she would get back. I’ve been trying to reach her for a while now. I want to find out how she’s doing. She’s probably at the SUNY budget cut rally at Ellicott. The budget cuts are the concern of few around here. Nobody cares if they pay an extra one or two hundred dollars. "Despite how inexpensive the school costs are, a hike in tuition, room and board fees are against our right to a happy existence. That was fought for by our forefathers 200 years ago, and bicentennially speaking, don’t they deserve another two hundred. I’ve been checking out the range of Presidents lately. We have the disgusting dull Ford, but Carter is worse. The man is a total nothing with a non-existent platform. He hasn’t stood for a single thing thus far. He just wins primaries. The only solid thing he represents is clean teeth. 1 heard someone speak in front of an audience on busing today. He took over a budget cut meeting and rambled on for 20 minutes about the event he wants to occur in Boston. He also wants to be the next Martin Luther King. He’s a walking, talking ego. “Look at me,” he says. I should go check out the scene in the room. She will probably be in the room hanging out. He’ll be in there too. He always hangs out there. He always hangs out. Both of them hang out. They don’t give a shit about school. School doesn’t meaaa thing to them. They’ll get married and hang out for 50 years maybe 80 if they’re not blown up by then. We could be blown up if the buttons are in front of the wrong person. 1 know someone capable of making it there. He’s an army career man. He lacks something in intelligence. He’s a dumb guy, worse than Hitler, because now, six million would be a token slaughter. We could all die soon, but then again who cares???

Let's continue the effort to ensure that our education is not struck down The Spectrum Vol. 26, No. 73 Wednesday, 7 April Editor-in-Chief 1976 Amy Dunkin - Managing Editor Richard Korman Advertising Manager Gerry MeKeen Business Manager Howard Greenblatt — - In reply to David Krevor’s letter (5 April 1976), I would prefer to think of myself as being guilty of ethnocentricity, lousey writing and bad judgement, than of regressive thinking. I am a third year graduate student in English. I gave up my fellowship this year so 1 could be Bibliographer for the American Journal of Computational Linguistics. Back in the days when I was TA, I was also a card carrying member of GSEU (No. 32). I am presently doing layout for the GSEU Newsletter. I was writing from my Ethnocentricity: experience of graduate study in the humanities; i have no knowledge of how study in the natural and applied studies is structured. Few humanists, Phd in hand, who are applying for their first academic job have had articles published. 1 suspect that intellectual maturity comes later for humanists than it does for those working in highly mathem,atesized disciplines. Hence publication comes later. My impression is that graduate students in the sciences typically work on research projects with their instructors and that they are listed as co-authors on any publications resulting from that work. Similar opportunities are not available to for the discipline is structured humanists, differently. Very few articles or books are co-authored and being a Research Assistant means being a bibliographer. You hunt in the library for material of use to the person with whom you are working, but you generally don’t participate in the writing of the paper. Lousey Writing, and Bad Judgment: I really wanted to rpake a point about intellectual maturity (that most first and second year graduate students don’t have it). And I made the mistake of implicitly equating the ability to write publishable material with intellectual maturity. Intellectual maturity implies mastery of a field of knowledge, and few new graduate students have that. Getting published doesn’t necessarily imply mastery of anything (i.e. I don’t know about Chemical Engineering, but many articles in humanistic journals aren’t worth the paper they’re printed on). And knowing a specialized field well enough to publish in that field doesn’t imply mastery of a broad base of knowledge. 1 do not think it is patronizing to assert that first and second year graduate students are intellectually immature. One goes to graduate school to acquire that level of mastery and the implicit assumption is that all faculty members are, in virtue of their higher level of training, at that level. I believe the assumption holds in most, but not all cases. There may be some graduate students who are more competent in a given area than the professor who is supposed to be teaching that subject; but such cases are surely rare. I never meant to imply that graduate students are anything less than productive adult members of society. If what I wrote said otherwise, then I apologize for the misunderstanding.

The Spectrum Wednesday, 7 April 1976 . �..’ov/'uO odV v i §g • - Guest Opinion by Robert Dowrey Correction: In Monday’s issue of The Spectrum, it was incorrectly reported in the editorial, “Botched Again” that a state-wide student strike is set for April 26. The Student Association of the State University (SASU) is planning a strike for April 28 to coincide with the SUNY Board of Trustees meeting but nothing final has been set. Misleading editorial To the Editor: This letter is in response to the editorial “Botched Again” in Monday’s (April 5th) The Spectrum. The Spectrum editorial opposed the wording of the undergraduate strike referendum, and rightly so, but it goes on to accuse the “Coalition to fight the cutbacks” of not doing the same. This is incorrect, because on several occasions prior to the Student Association’s decision oh the wording of the ballot the. Coalition insisted, in fact it demanded, that it be the students on strike who should determine the character of the strike. We have consistently made this position public. Further, The Spectrum asks what happened to the “promises of workshops and teach-ins” to inform the students about the cutbacks. In fact the workshops did go on and most of them were well attended. The issue of a student strike and the entire question of budget cutbacks affect all members of the University community in the most profound way. It seems to us that The Spectrum should give it priority coverage so that the fight for the restoration of the budget cuts can built effectively. We look forward to working with The Spectrum in our common objects. The Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks You'd better vote To the Editor. The article, “Election Circuit Being Shunned by Students,” The Spectrum, April 5th, irritated me greatly. How can students possibly say that there is no issue to vote upon? Are not budget cutbacks and high unemployment sufficient issues to get riled up over? How can any student be so irresponsible as to say that the economy doesn’t affect him? When he leaves school and tries to find a job, he will realize, only too well, that the economy does affect him. Fellow students, you represent an enormous amount of potential voting power. If you don’t get off your asses and vote in November, then you deserve for your next President any schmuck who enters the White House in January. I felt that. The Spectrum did a terrible injustice to the hunters on the campus and in this area by printing the article by Stephen Knaster in the March 29 issue. The article was titled “Hunters Thoughtlessly Murder Helpless Wildlife.” I felt that there were many refutable “facts” in that article. Mr. Knaster quoted both Peter Singer and Geveland Amory without telling that they are both fervent anti-hunters and would have a very biased opinion on the subject. I could quote from the NRA (National Rifle Association), but I 4e£eat. my whole argument: think obviously are hunter-biased. Instead, all of They come from the National Wildlife arguments my Federation, of which I am a member. The NWF maintains a neutral stance towards hunting. Mr. Knaster calls hunters “insensitive human beings.” I don’t consider myself insensitive, nor do I believe does my family or friends. He also implies that hunters are' sadists. Once again, I don’t consider myself a sadist, nor does anyone else I know consider me a sadist. I consider hunting a relaxing sport where I can be with nature. Mr. Knaster might also consider the fact that man has spent ov6r 99 percent ofhis history as a hunter. Mr. Knaster also uses the term “hunters and environmentalists.” Are not hunters environmentalists also? For years hunters were the only organized proponents pf wildlife conservation! Shortly before the turn of the century, for example, members of the Boone and Crockett Club took the lead to help establish and later to protect Yellowstone Park. Hunters also contribute nearly all of the money to the conservatiPn efforts of the government. In 1935 hunters voluntarily agreed to pay a 10 percent tax on all guns and ammunition. This money goes to purchase and preserve wild lands. I might also ask Mr. Knaster when was the last time he contributed anything but hot air to the fight to save our wildlife. I did last time I purchased a hunting license, $5.25 for a big game license and $11.25 for a combination hunting and fishing license. Many hunters also pay extra for a bow hunting permit and for duck stamps to hunt ducks, this in addition to what 1 pay! All this money goes toward conservation. This is paid each year. Last year it totaled over $70 million for conservation. Mr.- Knaster makes another questionable that hunting quote, “one thing remains clear has been the sole reason for the extinction or near extinction of hundreds of animal species.” Is it relaly so clear? It is a fact that of the 74 bird species and 35 mammal species on the Interior Department’s endangered species list, not one is hunted legally. There are more deer and wild turkey in the United States today than ever befory in our history. The urban public unable to tell a white-tailed deer from a-moose, simply associates hunters with dead animals and dead animals with threatened wildlife. The fact seems to be that killing, not hunting constitutes one of the most contentious issues. Anti-hunters express amazement that anyone who purports to love wildlife can kill it. Ira Gabrielson of the Wildlife Management Institute has this to say: “I doubt that those who advocate letting nature take its course have ever seen a deer in the final stages of starvation; a fox, hairless, scab-covered and blind from sarcoptic — > V* *> >. « j j^S D V mange; or a racoon in the final stages of distemper. These arc nature’s method* of population control. Properly regulated hunting can avert these tragedies by reducing the population highs and raising the lows.” The National Wildlife Federation states that the chief reason for the declining state of wildlife is due to habitat loss, not hunting as Mr. Knaster states. The use of pesticides also constitutes a danger to wildlife. The use of DDT neatly destroyed the brown pelican population in Louisiana. Mr. Knaster also questions the use of hunting as a legitimate tool of wildlife management. Hunting foes argue that in many cases wildlife adapt to its surroundings without the hunters’ attentions. Furthermore, they contend that hunters generally cull the biggest, strongest animals, thus weakening the genetic stock. By contrast, natural deaths, however unpleasant, are the lot of animals who are generally weak, sick and past their prime. Thus, such deaths do not affect family and social units as drastically as hunting deaths. Wildlife experts disagree. Few zoologists would dare to make the generalizations subscribed to by many passionate anti-hunters. The inescapable fact is that, in many areas, development has already infringed so drastically upon wildlife habitat that human intervention is the only means of ensuring the survival of the species. Thomas W. Kimball, executive vice president of the National Wildlife Federation, states: “There is no realistic way for deer populations in Wisconsin or Wyoming to achieve a self-sustaining level without hunting unless wolves, coyotes and mountain lions are restored to their former abundance, and that is not likely to happen.” Mr. Knaster suggests relocating females of the species to areas that are underpopulated. Where are these underpopulated areas? Perhaps he fails to realize that many animals will not adapt to environment changes very readily. 1 don’t believe that bighorn sheep could thrive in Central Park. When an animal’s habitat is plowed under and paved over, where can it live? Mr. Knaster also states that the odds are stacked against an animal ever getting away. I don’t think he has ever gone deer hunting. Only a small percentage of hunters get a deer each season. Most hunters don’t even get a shot at a deer. Let me also add this, do cattle in a slaughter house have any odds at all in their favor? How many times has Mr. Knaster enjoyed a nice steak, slaughtered, just for him. I believe that hunting has its place in the conservation effort. The National Wildlife Federation slates: “To manage natural resources on the basis of emotion is not sound for the resource or for the people.” I also am not condemning anti-hunters for their opinions. I feel that the right to hunt is a personal question. Each person must make his own decision whether it is right to hunt or not. By the same token, I also believe that, each person should respect the other’s right to make that decision. Neither the hunter or the anti-hunter has any business trying to ram his views down the other’s throat. I also believe that both sportsmen and preservationists must work together towards a common effort and conservation. As Thomas Kimball says, “We simply can’t afford to feud with each other when we’ve all got so many bigger enemies to fight.” Martin Celnick Wednesday, 7 April 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �picayune arkedelphia EUTAW profane situation saturation i ostentatious osculations strange countries of the mind rip-torn-tunes obliterates pain & grief around you can make you sick Give that man an enema A sense qf finesse naturally given to sohg ( ‘O when the saints’ Barcaloungers studded and pimped sasso grasso Bruno takes good care of your sequenced radomization courtesy City Council I just want something warm to stick inside of me Throw off your shirt sister get light baby Club Hotsy Totsy 1 like boys Where’s Lavoisier?

Bert Black Master College of Hack Studies History revised To the Editor: This is written not to condemn but to forgive (7 x 70 time*) a slight, but historically important, mistake made by the “Noted Historian” Danny Zwickcr. To make it brief, his Marco “Ketter” Polo came about 200 years early. The real Marco Polo ventured to China and arrived in the court of Kublai “Ketter” Kahn in 1275 A.D. where he was given great education, wealth, and high government positions. 1066 A.D. (the date Danny used for Marco’s expedition) was actually the date of The Norman Invasion of England, otherwise called the Battle of Hastings. William I, the Conqueror of Normandy, invaded England to do battle with his cousin King Harold Godwin when a dispute arose over who should have the English, throne. Needless to say, Harold was killed and William gained the throne; so ends our history lesson for the day. David T. Caputo Not the issue To the Editor. In Monday’s (5th April) The Spectrum Tom Nicotera responded with not unfamiliar xenophobia characteristic of the majority in times of economic depression; attack the reticent, hard-working, in non-political minority committed to their work this case foreign students devoted to their education. Just how does Tom Nicotera think the faculty and administration appoint GA’s and TA’s on the basis of skin colour, black hair, sex appeal, nationality or dietary habits? It is the policy of this University to appoint GA’s and TA’s on the basis of academic ability. There is more to academic ability than just language facility. If foreigners do not speak fluent English it is understandable but what about failing standards in writing and reading skills of American students whose mother tongue is English? This is unforgivable. Moreover, how many foreign GA’s and TA’s does Mr. Nicotera know who are wholeheartedly behind GSEU? Admittedly, everyone wants more money if they can get it but I personally know quite a few foreign GA’s who actually save on their present salary and none- of these are actually starving or living in gutters. This is because (hey have the good sense of cutting their cost according to the cloth available. They recognize that you cannot make a silk purse out of sow’s ears. Before advocating that this University rearrange its priorities, perhaps it is equally pertinent for my American colleagues to set their priorities straight get back to their education and stop looking for scapegoats. Nothing is gained by sowing seeds of hatred and intolerance. This State’s or this University’s problems are not going to disappear by merely withdrawing assistantships from graduate students from overseas. Some departments will suffer academically if these students went elsewhere.. — - — Vijaykumar Patel according to the whims of those in power; first we were against the Russians, and now Chase-Manhattan Bank has opened up offices in Moscow, and Warsaw, and the message we get is changed, accordingly. The style and manners of a “bourgeois consciousness” 1 To the Editor: Many of my friends arc planning to strikesoon, and yet many other undergraduate students I have spoken to will be unable to participate in the coming strike because of the pressure of classes, grades, domineering teachers, and so on. What 1 am afraid of is a rerun of the events in the Sprifig of 1970 a split among the undergraduate student body over whether to strike classes or not. At that time a predominantly middle class group of students led by SDS, who opposed the war in Vietnam, ROTC, Defense Contracts on Campus, etc., staged a lengthy and dramatic strike (during which some 45 of us faculty were arrested), and found themselves clashing with another group of students, those who, not necessarily opposed to the aims of the strike, but from working class backgrounds, usually from Buffalo, and whose needs for a university education were more important to them; in any case, they were unable or unwilling to quit their Classes, and so, considerable violence took place at the entrance to campus buildings. This provided exactly the excuse which the campus administration needed to do what they wanted all along; occupy the campus with 300-500 armed Riot Squad police from downtown. I do not want to sec that happen again. It comes down to thinking more radically about what it means to “strike.” (I am speaking about an undergraduate student strike; not one by working teachers here who are graduate students.) If we were all working here making automobiles which could be then sold by the “company” for profit, then obviously when we withhold ohr collective labor, we put pressure on the profit oriented company to do what we want:' a strike, worts. Unfortunately, we do not make cars; and I am not one who believes that students taking notes in classes, with pen and notebook, are thereby ““working.” ' What is produced here, besides the providing of technical skills and a kind of sorting out of students according to interest and “ability,” is a kind of mentality or “consciousness,” a way of thinking and being in the i social world, but especially a consciousness that fits us into a businessman’s world, a world dominated by the profit motive, as far as I can figure it out. That’s why it is not at all surprising to me that President Kcttcr and all the previous University Presidents are members of the Board of Marine Midland Bank, and similar corporate bodies. In France right now, there is a large student strike against the new policy of “making the students more inviting faihillaf?) by employable” (sound corporation leaders into the academic planning committees of the French universities to reshape the curriculum accordingly. That’s pretty “up front,” compared to our academic planning bodies who have absorbed the corporate aims as their aims; thus our Academic Planning Committee speaks of “employability” and “throughput” and similar corporation jargohese. Their goal is to shape our thinking and being so that we fit into a world shaped and still run by businessmen. I think they’ve been pretty up front with us about that. There have been no secrets, really, about this. To those who wish to strike, here at U.B-, I say by all means let’s strike, but let’s strike at the heart of production, the production of a businessman’s which call “bourgeois consciousness, I consciousness.” This is a consciousness where we will all see each other in terms of “who’s going to win it”; or “can 1 beat him out,” and so on; it starts with th«f first report card, and our parents exclaiming, “All S’s, how* nice; let me give you a kiss!” Part of this “bourgeois consciousness” is to get people to feel alone and to see ourselves as individuals in the social world, and yet all the evidence of our senses and intelligence tells us that we are more and more interdependent on each other, economically and culturally, and, yes, in spirit. We are taught to regard each other according to status which is perceived as wealth; or why else, may I ask, does President Ketter get the $46,000 plus benefits? In other words, people as well as objects have a cash value. We are shaped to be afraid in the world, afraid of each other, “The Blacks,” “the Reds,” one thing or another, but to depend upon the powers that be to protect us from these “enemies,” which seem to vary — . are politeness and gentility; the message is: don’t rock the boat keep things to yourself, even to the point of not telling your lover what is going on in yOur heart. Just cry alone at night. Everything is done to convince you that there is really nothing you can do to change anything in society, that such changes as there are have come from “above,” by “those who know.” The mood appropriate to a “bourgeois consciousness” is despair, loneliness, hopelessness, fear and insecurity. Needless to say, I find such “bourgeois consciousness” repugnant to my nature, and imagine that in their hearts, eveyrone else feels the same way: we were meant to live better than that. So, let us break the mood of despair and hopelessness and loneliness; by all means let us strike and stop the production of “bourgeois consciousness,” and each of us will, I am sure, find their own methods to struggle to stop that “production”: 1. Some may wish to avoid their classes. 2. Others may-wish to reiiiain in their classes and challenge the teachers and their classmates to compare their own experiences with what is being v taught and the values “coming down”; they may collectively draft critiques of the subject and circulate them, and demand a hand in the shaping of their consciousness. 3. Others, seeing that employees at this university are intimidated and threatened by the administration from organizing themselves into a union to protect their rights, and knowing from their own family’s experiences how vital a union is, may wish to support what attempts employees are making to unionize. 4. Some may wish to join the GSEU strike. 5. Some, sitting in class, feeling uncomfortably sad, may wish to cry. 6. Others, sitting in buses, alienated by the separateness of the passengers, may start up conversations with their seat-mates. 7. Students in dorms, bored and frustrated by the bullshit quality of their contact with others in the dormS may decide to start up “support groups” among their corridor friends. 8. Some may feel intimidated about criticizing their teachers, may write out such criticisms on notes and pass them to their neighbors in classes. 9. Some, bored.by the “assigned readings,” may stray, and read what they want. 10. Others, startled by learning about Ketter’s connections with the Financial World, may wish -to investigate the business connections of all those making educational policy for SUNY; trustees, chancellors, and- the like. They may wish to publish and circulate them on this campus, and they may expect to change people’s minds about the way things are run. 11. People may want to write their own leaflets and hand them out. 12. Some may disagree with the way the Coalition fo Fight the Cut-Backs works, and may want to form their own Coalition. 13. Some may talk to their parents, members of local unions, about the cut-backs and how the University soon will be inaccessible to the sons and daughters of working people from Buffalo, and may encourage their parents to bring this issue up at the next meeting of that local trade union and offer a resolution to oppose the cut-backs. I could go on and on, you get the idea. The thing is, people react in different ways according to where they are at in the system and what they think they can do, and that everything that is done to stop the production of “bourgeois consciousness” is all to the good, and the people who have their own way and pace themselves in different ways, and will “strike” at the heart of this production in a way that suits them, and none of us are so ennobled with the “truth” that we can say to someone else: You are - not striking! Charlet A. Haynie Coordinator, College F All the way To the Editor. Now that the student vote on the referendum has been tabulated add the decision to strike has been made, I would really like to know what good this will do in preventing budget cuts and tuition hikes. Boycotting classes for just one day is not going to help matters very much, probably not at all. If the students are really sincere on how they feel about the budget cuts and how it will affect our quality of education, they should do something a bit more drastic. For any significant outcome to result from all this, not a one-day strike should be implemented but at least a one-week strike should be put info effect. This would give state officials more to think and worry about than a one-day strike ever will. Personally, I am against a strike, but if we are going to do it, let’s do it right. All we are accomplishing by this one-day affair is giving the students a one-day vacation from school. Really now, how many students are actually going to picket and rally on Tuesday? If we are going to do something, let’s do it all the way, not half-ass.

As 1 sat in the theater in Harriman taking in The Alley Between our Two Houses, I experienced a broad range of emotions and thoughts. Although much of the content could be described as painful, 1 found myself exhilerated throughout and after the performance. There was something imaginative in each scene that drew me in, whether it was movement, use of music and silence, or portrayals of the characters. Terry Kiler’s review of Alley in The Spectrum concludes that it cannot stand as a play because it doesn’t make sense. I felt that the reviewer did not attempt to take the play for what it was. Alley is not a clearcut sotry to be readily understood. 1 saw it as an exciting example of what theater can be when plot is not primary. I came out of that play wanting my friends to experience it, and was very sorry that there would be no more performances. I think Jeff Brooks and Ray Munro and their cast are doing great stuff that I hope will be shared with people in other cities. And if it’s not a “play,” it doesn’t matter what you call it, Alley is art. Bill Fudeman 66EHM9S raw FlD6LCAsnao„. AW, All for naught To the Editor We would like to take the opportunity to condemn the decision to strike. It appears that the pseudo-radicals and makeshift Socialists have hoodwinked the students with their rhetoric. They claim that one of the purposes of the strike is to make the legislators aware of student dissent concerning the cutbacks. But let’s be realistic. Why would the legislators, Ketter or anyone else (besides students) be driven to action because the students took a day off from class. It is obvious from the legislators’ actions that they do not place a high priority on education. Strikes are generally used to set back the oppressor, but the students were the only ones to bear the effects of this strike. As far as the organizers of the strike are concerned, we think it is about time that these middle class “radicals” started doing a little thinking and realize that their fighting and “strength building” is self-destructive. Better education is not obtained by shutting down the educational institutions. Recently, the Coalition has voiced complaints against the banks which are hoarding money and the legislators who vote themselves tax breaks while at the same time increasing the cost of public education. I agree with their complaints. But why don’t the members of the Coalition direct their demonstrations at the banks and Albany instead of picketing the buildings in which my classes are held? Unfortunately, our efforts are belated, but it doesn’t really matter. The Coalition had their day, that day passed uneventful, and we will all pay the extra hundred dollars next year. - Daniel Flagherty Maher William Henry Jones II UNIVERSITY BOOKSTOREHall Norton FRIDAY, APRIL 9th is the LASTDRY order your Don’t Forget!

The Spectrum . to Minority Student Affairs, Student Activities and The Theater Department Wednesday, 7 April 1976 Two wins clinched in pre-season play The Baseball Bulls opened their northern swing last weekend with two wins that showed that they can hit, pitch, and play defense equally well. They beat St. Mary’s 11—5 and 1—0. In the first game, the Bulls got off to somewhat of a slow start, trailing 1-0 and 2-1 in the early innings. But senior right hander Mike Dean blanked St. Mary’s for three innings in a row while the Bulls ripped St. Mary pitching. Homers by Mike Dixon and John Kidd did most of the damage for Buffalo. Dean yielded two more runs in the last of the seventh, but the game was out of reach by then Bulls’ bats quiet The second game was a complete turnabout from the first. The Bulls’ bats, so potent in the first game, were silenced by Dave Wingate of St. Mary’s. The Bulls managed only five hits in the game, and flawless defense by St. Mary’s cut the Bulls’ attack down even further. Buffalo managed the only run in the top of the fifth when catcher Dixon doubled home Jim Mary. But one run was enough. Senior hurler John Buszka was as effective for Buffalo as was Wingate for St. Mary’s. The Bulls’ defense erred only once, and Buszka allowed just one hit and no runs. Buszka, who was one for three in the first game as designated hitter, was in total control of his pitches, walking only three batters. Bull coach Bill Monkarsh had nothing but praise for his pitcher. “He didn’t walk anybody. That’s been a problem with our pitching staff. They lose their concentration, walk a couple of hitters, and then a base hit scores a run. But John was able to keep his control.” No mistakes Monkarsh also ahd an explanation for the 10 run difference in the two games. “Both teams played superbaseball in the second game. It was a good defensive game. We did hit the ball hard, but they made some great plays, a catch against the left field fence, a diving grab at first.” The wins for the Bulls bring their overall record up to 6-7, and they will be on the road again this weekend for six critical games. The Bulls will play a doubleheader at Seton Hall, St. John’s and Fiarfield, and a successful trip will make a lot of college baseball people aware of Buffalo. Last season, the Bulls dropped two games to Fairfield and one to St. John’s The Bulls’ home season opens on April 22, when Buffalo takes on Big Four rival Canisius in a doubleheader at Peelle Field. Then that Saturday, the Mountaineers of West Virginia invade Buffalo for their annual meeting. �Tight divisional races forecast in upcoming baseball season - be the regular centerfielder even though Martin doesn’t like him. The Indians lead the bottom of the heap brigade in the battle for fourth with a mediocre infield, a blah outfield, and a pitching staff .500 with proven stocked pitchers. The Brewers -will not make a run at the title while the Tigers have only youth and the highway robbery of Rusty Staub to show for themselves. John H Reiss Eastern Division As has been its custom, The American League East figures to feature a three team race between the Orioles, the Red Sox and the Yankees.

Phone If the Yankees are to win their first pennant in 12 years, they’ll have to do it in spite of their management. They had star pitcher Andy Messersmith in their back pockets before they showed him one contract, tried to get him to sign another, and the star pitcher decided he’d rather play for honest people. Earlier in the year they put in a strong entry for the “Ridiculous Trade of the Year” award by dealing Bobby Bonds to the California Angels for a song and a dance. The song is 16 game winner Ed Figueroa and the dance is Mickey Rivers who waltzed his way to 70 stolen bases last year to lead the league. Actually the erstwhile Bombers could challenge in their new ballpark if they stay healthy, exploit their team speed and convince manager Billy Martin that Elliot Maddox should r~Hear 875*4265 BOBBY LIPSHITZ 853-8805 provide Oakland with its stiffest competition in recent memory. The Royals offense is solid, led by the .300 plus hitting of George Brett and the power of John Mayberry. Steve Busby and Dennis Leonard top the pitching corps which finished fourth in the league in ERA last year. The infield defense is solid and the Royals only glaring weakness is catching. The Angels may be the most improved team in the American League. They set a major league record in steals last year and then in the off season, stole one more with the acquisition of Bobby Bonds. Along with the addition of Bill Melton, Bonds’ power should u a help the already strong pitching ><“•* '» ™ Eastern Division staff.

The Red Birds are banking on two rookies at the corners Hector Cruz and Keith Hernandez and a relatively young pitching staff that features A1 Hrabosky in the bullpen. As usual, the New York Mets face no pitching problems, but their hitting is a little skimpy with a rotation of Tom Seaver, Jon Matlack, Jerry Koosman and the newly acquired Mickey Lolich, the Mets possess one of the best staffs in the majors, but it takes runs to win games. The mets have some solid players but must find, someone to fill the gap left by Rusty Staub’s departure. Fighting it out for the cellar position will be the Chicago Cubs and the Montreal Expos. The Expos right now are jockeying for the position but when you’re as bad as these two teams it doesn’t make any difference who is worse. Marcia Gallo to speak Marcia Gallo, Socialist Workers’ Party candidate for president, will appear today at noon in Haas Lounge. Gallo’s appearance is. sponsored by the Student Association Speaker’s Bureau. — Western Division The World Champion Cincinnati Reds should dominate the NL West again, especially since almost every starter is virtually an All-Star. Come World Series time in ’76, Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan, Pete Rose, Tony Perez, Davey Concepcion, and company should be in the limelight once again. The Reds’ pitching staff is a little thin, but they’ll be starting Gary Nolan, Jack Billingham. Don Gullet, Pat Darcy and Fred Norman again. The bullpen will probably see a lot of action again this season. With the departure of Andy Messersmith, the Los Angeles Dodgers are standing on shaky ground. The problem they face is that they have only one healthy solid pitcher, Don Sutton. By the acquiring Dusty Baker, solid have rounded out a Dodgers starting lineup, but the trade stripped them of their bench strength. They own some frontline players, but second place is as far as they’ll go. Hot on the Dodgers’ heels are their long standing rivals, the San Francisco Giants.

With a half life of under eight seconds, most 16N disintegrates during its passage through a delay device called a hold-up tank. Negligable radioactivity Some of the escaped water seeped up into the floor of the reactor Core. But by the time it had passed through the six feet of protective concrete, the water’s ratioactivity was lowered to less than 10 milliroentgens, “a level of negligable amount,” indicated Thomas. Although he considers the possibility of another leak highly unlikely, Thomas could not rule it Most nuclear out altogether. reactors have a projected life span of 30 to 40 years. But like any other machinery, this can be indefinitely extended through replacement of worn or defective parts. “Efficient maintenance and careful monitoring can eliminate malfunctions,” he said. Reactor operators discovered last September that 250 gallons of water per day were being lost from the cooling system. The normal operative loss ranges from 40 to 50 gallons per day. Determining the hole’s precise location and finally sealing it were difficult operations. The costs of in recuding the water loss to an acceptable 40 gallons per day, all of which is attributable to evaporation.

As the possible hazards of nuclear power continue to be aired, the public is becoming increasingly wary of the this energy alternative source. Mounting opposition originating from environmental groups, the New York Public Interest' Research Group (NYPIRG) and its ally-mentor Ralph Nader, and people residing near planned or already constructed nuclear power plants is rapidly forcing the to review “the government national committment ,1° the unlimited development of nuclear power." Inadequate safety precautions, thermal pollution, and the shadow of terrorism/sabotage are limiting that must be weighed the beneficial aspects of power. nuclear controlled Recently, a malfunction in a nuclear reactor in Detroit, came within a hair’s breadth of causing a reactor core meltdown. A meltdown would have created a deadly ratioactive fpg, possibly killing millions in the Detroit vicinity.

Students vote to strike tomorrow; Coalition disputes referendum Undergraduates have voted by a three to one margin to strike tmorrow, April 6, only. The one day strike won over an indefinite walk-out by a scant 22 votes. But the tabulation of this second question in the three day referendum is being disputed. Leaders of the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks have charged that the Student Association’s (SA) wording of the question on the duration of the strike, and its tabulation, gave those students who voted against the strike the deciding voice in the question on the strike’s duration. Question 2 on the referendum asked “If a strike passes by referendum should it be (1) for one day or (2) an on-going strike whose terminaton date will be set by the Student Association.” Because of the dispute over the duration question, the SA Senate will decide today how the be will referendum results implemented. President Steve Schwartz said Friday night. A total of 3100 students favored a strike out of 4343 votes cast. Of the 3100, 1030 voted fof a one day strike, 1465 voted for a prolonged action to be terminated by SA decision, and 121 wanted the striking students to determine of the length the strike. Fifty-seven students who voted to strike did not vote on the second part of the referendum. Of the 1243 students who were against a strike, 787 voted tor a one day action, while 98 wanted a prolonged action, and one student felt that students should make the decision. 288 students who voted to remain in class Tuesday did not vote on the duration of the strike. The Coalition has questioned of allowing the legitimacy students who voted against the stike to decide its duration. This issue will be an important topic of discussion at the Coalition-sponsored mass rally tomorrow in the fountain area behind Norton Hall, in the Fillmore Room if it rains. Picketlines will be set up in front of various buildings on , the Main Street campus during the day. The Coalition urged all students to participate in the picketing. In a related development, United University Professionals (UUP), chapter head Charles Fall, matter of the said the undergraduate strike will be UUP before the brought Executive Board this morning. “However.” he added, “we would have to leave the decision to cancel classes up to the individual Fall has previously given his personal support to the student strike. The Executive Committee of the Graduate Student Association (GSA) has expressed its support for the SA resolution which led to the referendum, but has not yet made a decision regarding the strike. teachers.” �SA forum Legislators answer questions on cutbacks by Charles Greenberg Contributing Editor A crowd of about 400 packed Haas Lounge Friday at noon to question local state legislators on cuts in the SUNY budget, in a Student Association (SA) sponsored forum, which capped a week of educational events augmenting the strike referendum. State Senator Dale Volker (R., Depew), and Assemblyman William Hoyt (D., Buffalo) and James Fremming (D., Amherst) attended. The elimination of the Foreign Student Office, prompted one questioner to say she and the other 1700 foreign students here were able to feel like guests in a host country because of the program. If it is eliminated, The Legal Aid Clinic’s recently opened there will be many ill feelings from the foreign students toward their Off-Campus Housing Office has “outdone all host country, she said. expectations in attracting students,” said Legal Aid Hoyt responded that actions were already underway to restore the Director Dave Richman. cut of $66,000 for the office. Citing ttye Foreign Students Office as “In the first eleven days that the office was for education only a small fraction of the total state expenditure certainly open, we handled 745 housing requests ($10.7 billion), Hoyt said cutting the office could cause friction in the for,” he remarked. could have hoped than we more community and so he was in favor of retaining it.

With construction of the North Campus incomplete, he expressed concern over the loss of construction jobs in Western New York. A student asked why an additional tax has not been levied against bank and corporate profits. Answering, Hoyt said, New York is becoming the “most uncompetitive state in the union,” and termed the questioner’s suggestion “visionary.” Hoyt opposed another tax on industry because it “would not be in the long run interests of the state.” Housing office successful computer. Some of these houses have been rented the same day that landlords advertise them. Lease-reading, a service that Legal Aid has always provided, has expanded this year due to the Housing Office’s success. A Life Workshop dealing with the housing market how to l6ok for housing, what rents to expect to pay, and how to get the most out of your landlord, was a new Clinic service this year. Plans are being made for a workshop in the dorms sometime this month due to the first one’s enthusiastic reception, according to Legal Aid. Clinic spokespersons report that area landlords have been, with a few exceptions, cooperative towards Legal Aid’s office. The clinic received a letter from one landlord saying that the housing office was “the first positive step in landlord-student ■ - - — ■ relationships.” According to Richman, the State University (SUNY) Chancellor’s office has inquired about the service. •“The administration here, although taking credit for having the service on campus, has in fact not given Legal Aid any assistance. Richman cited as an example of administration hostility its refusal to disclose a list of houses from the defunct Goodyear Off-Campus Housing Office for inclusion in the computer listings. Richman is writing to SUNY Chancellor Ernest- Boyer concerning the administration’s lack of cooperation. FUTURE IN DANGER State budget Thr problem in New York State today is how to cut state operations, according to Volker. “The state budget and inflation are both increasing rapidly; we have to cut people who are specifically not needed.” When asked if the state had defaulted on moral obligation notes, Fremming responded that the state came up with the necessary funds to stave off default. If the state had defaulted, many of its current projects funded with borrowed money would not be completed to borrow money, he because the state would not -have been noted. Hoyt felt a strike by students was a poor idea. “As a tactic of strategy you will lose; this is not the best way.” He suggested making a list of the most important programs, submitting it to legislators by the middle of April. This would enable legislators to act on them before the Supplemental Budget is passed in early June. Fremming agreed with Hoyt, saying that a strike would damage the University’s image in the community. The Spectrum is published Monday.

Frances Moore Lappe in her book Diet for a Small Planet disclosed that cattle eat, on the average, 16 pounds of grain for every pound of meal that they produce. This is extremely inefficient conversion ot protein and results in a shortage of food in many underdeveloped countries, according to the book. World hunger could be greatly" alleviated if people, rather than livestock, ate the grain, said Lappe. Moral and practical reasons aside, the health benefits of vegetarianism are just starting to become recognized. Vegetarians levels than have lower cholesterol meat-eaters, and show lower instances of diet-related cancers such as colon cancer, Kellner said. A vegetarian meal is not just a collection of vegetables, Kellner explained. “Variety is one of the main points we want to come across at the dinner," he said. The dinner , Poverty; Personal and Political Responses.” scheduled for 5:30 p.m. Thursday features an impressive menu: asparagus soup, cucumbers with sour cream, ratatouille, brown rice pilaf, fruit ambrosia, and more. The movie Food For A Small Planet will be shown after the dinner. In addition, Ken Sherman, from the Western New York Peace Center, will speak on “Global Kellner expressed hopes of obtaining the movie Milking Babies’ Bottles.

GSEUstrike vote fails by 11; ‘Reporter’article cited by Steve Milligram Contributing editor The G rac i ua te Student Employees Union (GSEU) failed to receive enough affirmative voles from its membership to declare a strike this week in its referendum Friday. 325 affirmative votes were necessary to declare the walkout, but the final tally was only 30X to 206. Union spokespersons blamed administration “union-busting" for the defeat, citing as an example an article on the front page of the Reporter allegedly containing “misleading information" about GSEU from administration sources. Also criticized was a meeting of department heads with University President Robert Ketter, who allegedly told the officials that if their Teaching Assistants (TA) and Graduate Assistants (GA) strike, full-time faculty would have to make up the classes, even if it would violate their contracts. Union officials also criticized a letter sent to all TAs and GAs promising that tuition waivers would probably be restored in New York Stale's Supplemental Budget, even though Governor Hugh Carey has already said he would veto it, according to one GSEU spokesperson. Building Union members further blamed the union's “lack of recognition" for the defeat. GSBU is still in the process of “building." they said. “Since we have not gained official recognition, we are unable to get any support or affiliation with any other unions, we have no office, and we don't even have a phone where people can reach us." a union official complained. He added they feel that they have little time to fight the recent cuts in tuition waivers and increase in tuition. “We arc currently placed in a defensive position by university and slate officials and must organize quickly." he concluded. Generalizing GSEU’s conflict • as a ‘‘struggle against powerlessness," one GSEU official believes that TAs and GAs are isolated intentionally and put into needless competition against each other and senior faculty. “We need an organization (hat will last," she insisted. “If the TAs and GAs are non-essential, if we are non-workers as the administration claims, then there would have been no need on their part to use the union-busting tactics that have been employed this week." asserted another official. When asked if their pay would be withheld if they struck, she replied that the administration would then be treating the TAs and GAs as employees because they could be paid (or not paid) for performing a function. She added that the administration currently claims that they receive funds because, “we are such nice, good human beings, and the only reason that we teach classes is that it is a programs GSEU requirement of our currently seeking recognition from the State Public Employees Relations Board (PERB). and claims to have met is “fierce" opposition from slate and University officials. However, a hearing is believed imminent. Demands Union leaders arc organizing around six basic demands: a minimum salary of S4.000 and maintenance of tuition waivers, restoration of 165 TA and GA budget lines, liability and accident msurance for all TAs and GAs, assurance of funding through degrees, closer adherence to Affirmative Action guidelines in hiring, and that the University and slate withdraw their claim before PERB and facilitate the election for union bargaining status. Union leadership claims they are lepresenlative for the approximately 655 state-funded GAs and TAs at this University. Excluded from G S E U representation are those graduate students who are funded nationally, teccive grants, or have Woodburne or University fellowships. “Nationally funded grad students are under a different employer, and those who receive fellowships are not required to work.” explained a union spokesperson. Although disappointed. GStU officials feel the vote was an indication of complete support for the union because so many were willing to walk off their jobs in support. “This is not a set-back it shows that we have backing from TAs and GAs. and we will have a strike, if it is still needed, possibly in the fall." pledged one. “We want a union that will outlast the individuals who are here now,” another declared. One official recounted her vision of returning to this university after fifteen years, asking a student the location of the GSEU office, and being replied that its “over there.” The existence of ai organization of GAs and TAs will its change ideas about membership in relation to their status as both students and employees of New York State, organizers feel. “We can change the nature of this institution and the nature of education in SUNY Buffalo." one official claimed. Future GSEU plans include expanding membership in all departments, building an organization with stewards and alternates, obtaining space for an office and headquarters, and solidifying GSEU's image as a labor union. Most important, according to union organizers, will be fighting “the ideology that we are powerless, stupid and childish, and not let the administration put us in unnecessary competition with each other."

(CPS) He’s paralyzed from the waist down, but the other candidates are paralyzed from the waist up.” This is the type of information George C. Wallace gives listeners when campaigning for his father, George C. Jr. A law student at Auburn University in Montgomery, the thin, long-haired, former country singer is stumping mightily for daddy this election year, addressing Wallace fundraisers all over the country “almost every weekend,” - according to a spokeswoman in Wallace campaign headquarters. “We’re very enthused about our chances,” Wallace Jr. declares. “We have definite solid core support across the country and there are no plans for withdrawal.” Fellow Alabamian law student Joe Watley disagrees. Watley and several University of Alabama friends have put together a investigative study of the Wallace years in Alabama, and a couple of huge labor unions have reprinted the booklet and distributed it in several early primary states. With Wallace fairing poorly in these contests, Watley and company are taking damming, some of the credit. Thin fray “1 think it’s having an impact,” Watley claims. “For the first time, people are beginning to question George Wallace on his record in Alabama. For Wallace is defensive.” first time, on the the being put Young Wallace and Watley, both students deeply immersed in this year’s burgeoning electoral shennanigans, are noteworthy simply because there aren’t many other students or young people who have seen fit to enter the political fray in 1976. In fact, reports from around the country indicate that like many adults, many students have decided to sit this one out. Jimmy Carter, victoriously through primary states and sweeping the early frequently mentioned as the chief contender the Democratic Party has been unable to muster much student response even in New York, where in 1972 George McGovern had over 40,000 student volunteers pounding the pavement, answering phones and passing out political literature. for Pulling teeth “It seems an impossible dream point to get students involved,” Jerry Clarpelli, a Carter student coordinator in Upstate at this New York, told The New York Times recently. “People say even their friends don’t want to get involved.” Howard Leibowitz, another Carter volunteer, echoed Ciarpelli’s feelings. “It’s like pulling teeth to get volunteers, but we’re getting our share. Students are just not very active,” Leibowitz explains. Just before the New York on April 6, . .Charter’s statewide student strength was estimated at 400, only as many McGovern studenfs as campaigned in Brooklyn alone in 1972. Morris Udall, the only candidate with a “liberal” label still alive in the primaries, had put together a. work force which numbered 1,500 students. The story is the same in other primary states. Each candidate has been able to tear a certain number of students away from their studies to jump on his bandwagon, but in every case, the numbers are much lower than in 1972 or 1968. Why? Many students say a lack of an issue in this year’s election no Nixon or Vietnam war to has forced many rebel against of them to opt for anything other than politics this spring. Harvard primary • - — senior Joseph Fay, a student coordinator during the short-lived campaign of R. Sargent Shriver, attributed the low number of students applying for leaves at the can’t say I know' what should be done.” In the west, University of Utah senior Poppy Shell, coordinator of a program designed to encourage students to vote, thinks young people are “more concerned for themselves personally than causes this year.” Although Sholl says her program, “Participation ’76,” is going “rather well,” she finds little activity on campus in the way of students getting involved ‘ in the presidential campaign. “They’re more interested in getting into law school,” the political science says. Mahy political pundits feel that ,the conscious act of refusing to vote, not to be confused with voter apathy, is catching on with adult votefs this year, and possibly with students as well. At a recent mass rally involving some 10,000 students protesting budget cuts ih Albany,' New York; one budding the student politician took and urged the students to get out and register to vote. He was promptly hooted off the platform. “No one is stupid enough anymore to think they’ll have any effect, whereas in 1972 they thought they would,” sayd student Richard Agriss somewhat bitterly. Several polls have predicted that over half of the 150 Americans eligible to vote will stay home this year, leading some experts to talk of a new “cynical majority,” and others to assess the non-voting situation as “frightening.” Last October, a speaker at Bowdoin College in Maine told —continued on page 14— normally highly politicized Cambridge campus to the lack of a Eugene McCarthy-type candidate who can stir young peoples’ feelings. “Without such a candidate or issue, it is difficult to recruit,” Fay says. Remote issue The economy, particularly the grim student job prospects, has apparently failed to stir anyones’ feelings either. “The economy is a remote issue,” offers Richard Bartmon, a 20-year old New York student who supports Fred Harris. “It affects my parents but not me.” Another New York student, William Hartung, says he became outraged about the war after he “found out what was happening,” but he doesn’t feel the same about the economy. “Economics isn’t as clear cut,” Hartung explains. “I Help make MoUdall President.

Fnfcnd to HOME REIOS Directed by IMWT MM ScraMpbqr t» DSHD (UYHEI TEOMCOUR* Shuttle buses will hopefully link areas on the Amherst Campus next year despite no increase in the bus service budget, according to Roger Frieday, Administrative Assistant for Campus Services. Frieday said there has been a problem with transportation around the new campus ever since it opened, a fact which comes as no surprise to the University community- Students sometimes jam a Main-Amherst bus leaving Ellicott only to get off at Governors, causing the bus to run only half-full the rest of the way to Main Street, he said. To eliminate this and similar problems, Freiday said his office will try to rearrange bus schedules so that a shuttle service can be set up and other runs can be express from Main Street to Ellicott. Originally, Campus Services was hoping for a small budget increase that would enable them to set up the shuttle, but this hope was dashed by the current budget crunch. While there will be no outright cut in the bus budget, it is being forced to “hold the line” despite a projected increase in ridership next year due to new buildings opening at Amherst, Frieday said. Frieday said he was hopeful that enough flexibility in scheduling will minimize the strain on bus service despite the increased usage. Strain in service Frieday acknowledged that 4here Was strain in bus service at certain times at present. He cited, as examples, the Main-Ridge Lea runs before and after the 9:50-11:10 and 2:20-3:40 classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Many classes are scheduled at these times and providing adequate bus service to such a large number of students is difficult, he said. However, said Frieday, the problem is usually helped somewhat by diverting Main-Amherst buses to Ridge Lea. Frieday said that perhaps the most severe handicap his office works with is a lack of information on bus service needs before each semester starts. They have no idea of where students will need to go and at what times, leading to great inefficiency in use of buses during the first several weeks of school, he said. After that time, Frieday says he has a fairly clear idea of when to order buses (buses are scheduled by the University but run by Bluebird). Bus shelters? Frieday expressed fears that campus buses will eventually have to abandon their present route between O’Brain/Baldy and Governor’s (Putnam Way), when a system of controlled access goes into operation. He explained that gates already in place will only let in those with an access card, eliminating most traffic. While buses could obtain the access cards, the driver would have to stop and leave the bus to activate the gate, Frieday said. Thus, it would probably result in better service if a new route were found. Frieday indicated that were the rerouting to become necessary, the University might have to put up bus shelters at junction points between the shuttle bus and the Main-Amherst bus. Frieday pointed out that a shelter was erected at Governor’s shortly after those dorms opened, and that a need for that shelter was seen by administrators at the time. There are some problems in putting up shelters, he said, chief among them cost. Bus shelters run anywhere from $1000 for a small, Metro bus-type shelter, to $3800 for a large, unbreakable acrylic shelter. In addition, foundations must be laid and the shelters must be erected, both of which also cost money. Frieday said that his office had never received a request from students for additional bus shelters at present bus stops, but that his office would consider such a request if made by students. However, he cautioned that putting up any new shelters would have to be approved elsewhere in the University. of the board Vote Rich Korman elected new Editor of ‘The Spectrum’ Richard Korman, Managing Editor of The Spec irum was elected Editor-in-Chief for 1976-77 by the editorial board of the paper last Thursday night, Korman, who is currently designing a special major in journalism, has been with The Spectrum for three years, working his way to the top from Staff Writer to Campus Editor to Managing Editor to Editor-in-Chief. He admits that he joined the staff after being closed out of three English Composition classes in his freshman year. Kortnan’s views on journalism are partly traditional, partly modern. “I’m sufficiently convinced that because of the conscious and unconscious biases of perception, no truly objective reporting is attainable.” he stated. , Each fiutdtune"UP Includes: 1) COMPLETE INFRA-RED ELECTRONIC ANALYSIS 2) All NECESSARY TUNEUP PARTS & LABOR 3) 6 MONTHS, 6,000 MILE GUARANTEE ON PARTS & LABOR idden Extras at Autotuna ice for all of Our C CO rcfi was, / MOST TUNE UPS TAKE ABOUT 30 MINUTES AN -XTRA t AO/ Ott Our Regulor Low Price With This Ad XV /0 wf* I* Offer Expires April 24th. 1976 Kenmore 707 KENMORE AT SIARIN KENMORE, N.Y.

These ideas have been forsaken by many young journalists today. The unhappy result has been a return to advocacy journalism and ideology.” Still, Korman found dangers in going to the other extreme: a pretense of objectivity where there could be none, and the resultant dry, third person, classical news style. “For many events, traditional newswriting is entirely inappropriate. Unless the story’s content is exceptional, we usually end up with something sounding like, as Hunter Thompson has said, a British sportscaster speaking in whispers on the 13th green. Yawn.” ‘Academic’ plan Korman said he’ll try to solve the problem of covering the campus through a consistent, practical approach. For the most part, he said, campus news will be based on those things which can make a student’s life here exasperating, such as poor bus service or crowded libraries. But there will also be active political coverage, and hopefully, some revealing investigations. All this will be augmented by features on interesting topics on and off campus. Like his predecessor, Amy Dunkin, Korman is a native of Queens, New York. A graduate of Springfield Gardens High School, Korman reflected on earlier academic ventures: “1 almost failed my final semester of High School English. The teacher gave me a 65 just to scare me.

Monday-, 5 April 1976 �Mail voter registration legal The Court of Appeals ruled Thursday that a state law permitting voter registration by mail is constitutional, reversing a decision by Buffalo Supreme Court Justice Joseph S. Mattina. Mattina held on February 11 that mail registration was in violation of the State Constitution and that “personal registration” meant a trip to the Board of Elections. In the key sentence of the Appeals Court decision, Judge Jacob D. Fuchsberg said, “The words ‘personal application’ is a statute or constitutional provision need not be taken' to mean ‘by physical appearance’.” The decision of the state’s highest court was unanimous. The mail registration amendment to the State Election law was approved by the Legislature last year and went into effect December 1, 1975. Its constitutionality was challenged by the Erie County Republican organization in a suit filed in behalf of Donald J. Siwek of Buffalo who is active in^the Republican amendment / When Mattina ruled the unconstitutional, his decision was Party. appealed by the State Board of Elections and the State Attorney General’s office. The decision is seen Most of the unregistered voters in Buffalo and other large urban areas were expected to enroll as Democrats under a mail registration program, according to Friday’s Buffalo Evening News. About 6000 persons had registered by mail in Erie County when the law was challenged. The Court of Appeals decision is also a victory for the many out-of-town college students who reside in the Buffalo area for most of the year and cannot return to their home towns to register. The ruling drew support from Stephen May, chairman of the State Board of Elections. “This unanimous decision by the Court of Appeals can help arrest the shocking decrease in voter registration in New York State over the past three years,” he said. -3«k=3 Swc 1 mic=xk Thursday, April 8th Food Day is April 8th Information Fair 12 5 pm Haas Lounge Music.

After all, Japan is the home of SONY (no baloney). There are televisions in bath houses, tea rooms, offices, etc. When you pass through rural countryside you cannot fail to notice the contrast of the traditional Japanese farm houses topped off with antennas. The entire nation is tied together by the national television network (NHK) along with a variety of private local stations. The bulk of the programming consists of Soap Operas, and variety shows. But don’t be fooled, they are nothing like anything you have ever seen. Students of Japanese culture have noted the ability of the Japanese to successfully incorporate things foreign without ever losing their sense of “Japaneseness.” When things Chinese caught their fancy, they borrowed everything from Chinese writing, religions, and architecture, without becoming Chinese. Different format Today it is the west. For example, the amateur variety show is' quite popular but unlike our version, (remember Ted >1ack?) each performer must subject himself to a crttique of his performance. An expert is always present to tell this nervous neophyte that his or her voice squeaks, or they don’t open their mouth properly. For all their troubles they must bow ans give thanks for what often seems like the most insulting moment of their life. Since place is so important here, everyone who appears on TV or who is the subject of discussion, is asked his place of birth, date of birth, schooling, hobbies, and occupation. Sentimental things are always popular... It is not unusual for a music variety show to incorporate a member of the audience who has some tragic tale to tell. They are brought on stage in between acts, interviewed and given some gift (usually a toaster oven or stereo) as reward for enduring their hardship and bringing everyone, including the interviewer, to tears.

No Irv Weinstein’s Whether you are watching drama, documentary, comedy, or musical variety, the distinct Japanese passion for explanation always emerges. This particular style does not lend itself to the development of the TV star personality system we are used to. To be sure Japan has its stars, but they don’t demand stars the way we do. It is unthinkable for Americans to watch the national or local news without choosing their favorite (Irv Weinstein, Walter Cronkite) but in Japan, you never know who will be announcing the news in advance, and what’s more, it doesn’t matter. The regularly scheduled shows often have different hosts without any sense of disruption. There is no such thing as a Mary Tyler Moore Show, that demands one person’s presence. Instead the show has a constant format that is always familiar to the viewer no matter who is doing the performing. In fact the only time you notice the use of personalities is when a western movie star like Sophia Loren does a Yamaha motorcycle commercial. Perhaps TV. like water, is capable of taking the shape of the containing vessel (qr culture), but 1 can’t help but be amazed by the difference between the SONY color TV I watched in the states and its twin brother here.

Page seven �Guest Opinion EditPrial by the Graduate Students Employees Union Botched again The concept of a one-day student strike to protest budget cutbacks and fee hikes was from the outset a good one, but it has become clear that, thanks to poor planning and organization, the students of this University have done little more than vote themselves a day off from school. The controversy surrounding the duration of the strike is rooted in the ambiguous and poorly-worded referendum ballot. The ballot a one-day strike, an indefinite should have presented three choices strike, or no strike. Instead, students who opposed tbfi strike were still able to tip the balance toward having a one day strike. The Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks, which is challenging the legitimacy of the referendum, is blaming the Student Association for its ineptness in organizing the referendum (which to a large extent SA deserves). But the Coalition also had its own responsibility to make these criticisms last week, before the voting took place. In its zeal to pull off the strike, the Coalition apparently lost sight of the real issues behind such a protest move. There is nothing constructive about simply staying home from schddl or picketing. Whatever happened to promises of Workshops and teach-ins to at least inform the student body about that which they are supposedly protesting? Furthermore, why wasn't the strike day set for April 26 to coincide with the state-wide student strike? As it stands, in seeking to "save education" the Student Association and Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks have not thought out their strategy very well. Hopefully, this one day strike will mean something to the money men in Albany. On all get back to the business of learning. Wednesday, - Udall discrepancy.

In Erie County, former Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter, Senator Henry "Scoop" Jackson from Washington, and Arizona Congressman Morris Udall are the top contenders, although delegates on three uncommitted slates (in the 36th, 37th, and 38th districts) pledged themselves informally to Minnesota Senator Hubert Humphrey. The country is currently being governed by a president and vice president, both of whom were appointed during a period of public dishonor and do not represent the choice of the American people. The the presidential pardon Ford administration started off with a bang and since then, has -tabulated the largest of Richard M. Nixon military budget in history, watched unemployment rates rise, and generally made the White House about as boring a place as any to be Of the Democractic candidates who will appear on the primary ballot tomorrow, we feel Udall has the most integrity and the most - — .progressive ideas. In summary, Udall is an outspoken environmentalist who believes the federal government can safely prune the defense budget 10—15 percent, should take over the cost of welfare, health insurance and other social services, must continue regulating the natural gas monopology, should provide public employment jobs if necessary to reduce the jobless rate, and should leave the question of abortion to women and their physicians. Udall has neither a hawkish history on Vietnam, as does Jackson, or a two-faced approach to politicking, as does Carter. He is also not an aging has been, as is Humphrey. We appeal to all members of the University community, particularly voters registered in Erie County, to support Udall in the primary tomorrow.

A comparison of the figures given with the real tax numbers clearly shows the has all ached u> it benefits which we do not have and which our administration Insists we arc not even entitled to. These benefits include sick leave, accident and liability insurance, workman's compensation and unemployment insurance, and other benefits which protect them. As to Holt's claims that if unionized we can not legally receive tuition waivers, this is patently contradicted by the fact that CStA employees, who are not even students, can attend classes with a substantial reduction of such fees. In Oliver words. Holt's contentions arc entirely open to question. The consequences of this is that the figures that he uses in calculating the total salary for SUNYAB TAs are completely misleading, in that it contains the cost of tuition which, if it is received as a^waiver, would not be taxable. The total taxable salary would be only S4000 and not S5400 thus raising TA iu-1 solan after all deductions to SS44K. and not S2X.SK as claimed. Music Photo Sports asst.

Editoral policy it determined by the Editor-in-Chief, Page eight . The Spectrum . Monday, 5 April 1976 In response to the letter of March 3 I by Charles J. Cazeau, I would like to know where he has been hiding the past few weeks. First off, he states that it is “unfortunate” that tuition rates have gone up. I would regard the hike of stamps from $.10 to $.13 unfortunate, the hike of tuition $200.00 more a semester is far more than unfortunate. Secondly, Mr. Cazeau does not mention that the cutbacks include much more than a tuition raise, that is why they are called cutbacks. It includes the loss of jobs by many GA’s and TA’sand the cutting back and phasing out of many of our University programs, the education Dept, to name one. We have been told that the state is responsible for rising education costs, not the students. But who is paying? We are. I work part lime to pay for my education. With this hike in tuition and my inability to receive any hike in TAP, it will hurt. Third. I wonder if Mr. Cazeau is aware of the present unemployment rate. His figures concerning the amount of money an average college graduate earns, I believe are inaccurate. Does he know how many times we hear the same thing. "There are no jobs now.” We end up getting jobs high school graduates have now if there are some left. Not all subjects are as idealistic as the Geology 103. equipped with lab and future jobs as Mr. Cazeau would have us believe. The thousands of students on this campus are not fortunate enough to be in your department. Perhaps our making our own decisions about the subject we want or need will be taken from us next year! Wouldn’t that be unfortunate. Then we can pay the University for making our decisions. Rochelle Schulz h'nglixh hUlucaiiou 'ndcrgnuhwU �Thinking things out To the Editor. I am writing this letter to discuss what I feel is a hasty and poorly planned response to a delicate situation which deserves the utmost thought prior to the undertaking of such drastic action as is being planned by the student body. The affair of which I speak is the student strike which, whether or not approved, must not be followed to conclusion. As an undergraduate I too have no desire to watch my. tuition rise as the quality of my education decreases. 1 abhor the seeming ineptitude of the Ketter administration as fervently as any student. However. I fear by the mindless ravings of those around me that 1 am one of a minority who have any conception of how a strike endangers one’s future education as well as one’s life in general. By transferring here from a rather highly touted private university I sought to escape the turmoil that this institution is undergoing at present. Students and teachers from the school of which I am speaking had infinitely more justification in striking than we have here. I played an active role in their strike and have regretted it ever since. The final outcome of that fiasco, which under no uncertain terms will be the end result of the Coalition to Fight the Cutback’s scheme, was disastrous. Certain questions have remained unanswered and unresolved. Ambiguity in these areas is not only intolerable, but lends further creedence to my argument that those patronizing a student walk out are going about it in a half-assed manner. Are teachers willing to jeopardize their standing at present for the benefit of students fearing economicpressure and colleagues wary of pink slips? Whether or not the answer is yes, students were voting on Wednesday, March 31, without any knowledge of such support. All they knew was that the Coalition, itself dealing in the dark, was doing everything within its “power” to secure faculty encouragement. By encouraging students to vote without knowledge of the situation around them, the Coalition has. in essence, thrown their peers to the lions and in doing so, their credibility has suffered irreparable damage. Of secondary importance is the question of whether this institution will suffer from such massive action? How will Buffalo be seen by other institutions or by prospective students? What kind of facilities will be available when, all of a sudden, enrollment drops, and with it. demand for facilities which are at present seen as basic? In the end however, the questions which, when answered, will decide how students will act are spine of the following: How will we be affected in the end? Should the strike continue into May. and only a blind optimist would think it could not. will credit for the semester? Will students students be expected to make up for lost time? What guarantee is there that, in a lengthy strike, teachers will not withdraw support, thus leaving students with their pants down? It is easy to get caught up in such a spirited -atmosphere, but when the consequences are so devastating and the number of actions and reactions of both sides as intricate and varied as this situation portends, a tinge of conservatism is more appropriate than an ail out war led by radicals^ Steven Lane Professional behavior To the Editor. I wish to thank Bill Benzon (Guest Opinion , 3/31/76) for his support of the Graduate Student Employee’s Union (GSEU). Some of his views though, are every bit as regressive and misconceived ias the This particular story actually begins at the Mariposa Folk Festival last summer. The specific instance involves a woman named Rosalie Sorrels and a man named Bruce (U.JJlah) Philips. They were doing a by Steese workshop together, medium late on Sunday afternoon T think it was. And it was a thing of warmth and charm and high quality. At one point Philips was describing, the developments that occurred to him when he settled down for a while near Spokane. Washington on a farm. Seems all sorts of strange thoughts went flitting through his head, such as “How come I never talkfed?) to my father?” “Wh don’t I have any relationship with my son?” He went on to voice the proposition that being a bum, and/or being on the road, was in some sense attractive because it kept you too busy to think. That you were distracted enough just trying to survive, that you did not spend a great deal of time trying to analyze the quality of your life. Rosalie Sorrels then talked about the problems inherent in trying to run away from home with a collection of kids. “The first thing that happened was that the tire went flat . . . No, actually the kids came down with something and I had to wait three days before running away from home, and then the tire went flat.” It was as wonderful a demonstration of people talking about themselves, sharing the hard parts of being human, as I have ever seen. It was not just a workshop or a concert. At least for me it was something that was much more valuable. Phillips exited on my side of the area near the end and I pulled his sleeve long enough to tell him that such workshops did more for mental health . whatever the hell that is than most clinical psychologists. Sorrels I did not get a chance to speak to. So when I noted that she was coming in to do a Coffeehouse here, I decided to persue. And ran into some thing else of warmth and charm and quality. It is easy to forget how much work goes into most organizations and happenings.. Having tried to intercept Ms. Sorrels before the Coffeehouse and failed due to an errant airplane, or several, I wandered over to Norton Union early on, about 7 p.m. I guess. There were two women beginning the process of shifting tables around and a guy setting up lights, speakers, control boards, etc. (My apologies for my lack of names, I have never been good at separating people in that sense. Either the face triggers a set of memories or I am in a world of trouble, being as how names drift away very nearly as rapidly as they arrive.) Being at best semi-skilled labor I helped push tables around. There is a fascination to watching something come together. To watch the curtains, to darken the place, appear out of somewhere, and begin to go up as the tables begin to finally assume acceptable order. The amazing appearance of several hundred folk music magazines and anthologies, while the poor opening act learns tfie g/tump .. ... that he may be on a little longer than he was prepared for. Of significance is the appearance of the men what sell the booze in the back room moving tables is rather dusty and drying work. And somehow nobody gets hassled through all the reports from the airport moving Sorrels arrival time back further and further. The opening act performs admirably for substantially longer than he was originally asked to prepare, one of the women last seen moving tables suddenly appears to fill in for a few minutes of announcements, and a guest star is found to do a few numbers after the intermission pending arrival of the awaited one. Already a pleasant evening, albeit a few too many personal ghosts are in the audience for complete peace of mind. And finally Ms. Sorrels. Glance at her in passing and she could be a somewhat dowdy housewife, from Salt Lake who sings Morman songs, as she was once accused of being. Look carefully and there is a strength in her face that has a fee! of Indian about it, high cheekbones and long planes backed by long straightish dark hair. Listen to her and it becomes clear that this is a woman who has come to know and respect herself in a complete way. She has tried a bunch of things and some of them may hassle her... such as trying to be a mother and a singer who spends a lot of time on the road (when she mutters about her 13 year old and sips her sour mash, the unbidden thought comes that if her daughter takes after her, it must be a little explosive), but not much beats her. Not even winding up in Playgirl magazine because Ms. didn’t think she was enough of a feminist. But then how can you fault anybody who wears a Jerry Jeff Walker belt buckle, and decided to be a bar fly at the age of 15‘ Admittedly it is hard to see how the photographer who took her picture for the Playgirl article could ask her to look “innocent,” and settling for “sceptical” would seem to be much more sensible. But to whatever extent die has become experienced enough to be a bit dubious about the strange things that people do to her and each other, there remains an ease and warmth that are all too rare. Or perhaps these qualities are not so rare, but they are not usually available so openly and clearly. Perhaps she is black Irish, she talks and sings and drinks as the Irish are reputed to do, with warmth and grace and a great deal of character. There is a new album out. Always a Lady on Philo Records. Always a lady, because a lady never accidently does something which might harm her reputation, and she never did anything like that accidently. Let her rest there. You can’t squeeze a great deal of talent into a modicum of ink and newsprint, no matter how hard you try. But you missed something fine and valuable if you weren’t there, and if you were, you might remember that you owe at least a small debt to a bunch of folks who work a lot for the fun of it. Catch her the next time around, and watch the Coffeehouse for good things generally. Pax, take ... care administration’s. Mr. Benzon comments ”... few first and second-year graduate students are immediately capable of doing work worthy of publication in professional journals . *” Such an attitude, besides being patronizing and demeaning, is wrong. I am a first year graduate student. The research that I am conducting is not for practice. I expect that within the coming year I will have co-authored two papers on research in my field and that these papers will be published in'professional journals. In addition to my research, I am teaching eight hours per week (two lectures and two laboratories in organic chemistry). In return, I am paid $1800 per semester. If I had taken a job in my field (in which jobs are still plentiful), I would earn four to five times this amount. When I signed my TA contract, the instructions I received firmly stated, “You are a professional; you are to act as one at all times.” If the Chemistry Department was able to recognize that fact, I don’t understand why Mr. Benzon, Dr. Ketter and others . cannot. In the coming weeks, we (the GSKU) will demand our rights as the professionals we are. David Krevor Department of Chemical Engineering Don't knock a good job To the Editor. I would like this opportunity to comment on the letter appearing in the Wednesday, March 31 issue of The Spectrum concerning the competence of Howie Cohen, Mike Sadowsky and Hal Zwick. I have wojked with all three officers this year and 1 feel that they have gone above and beyond the call of duty in their jobs. Mike, elected as an IRC Main Body Rep., was appointed to the position of member-at-large of the IRC Main Body Executive Council after he put in much effort and time in the job. He and Howie, the former IRC Main Body Treasurer, joined many extra committees to help with the reconstruction of IRC. He proved that he could do his job of treasurer quite efficiently. Hal, this year’s bllicott Area Council President, (as vice president he was elected to the job following the resignation of the former president), has worked hard to run the Area Council; the largest of the three area councils. The “friendships” that you seem to oppose in Ellicott area council meetings have largely come out of these same few people attending all the meetings, and despite the “joking” this Ellicott Area Council has been the most successful ever. To the person who wrote the letter if you want things done and don’t feel that Howie, Hal or Mike can accomplish them, I suggest that you run for Main Body Representative from your Area Council next year. Then you, too, can have the opportunity to become involved and be a voting member of the IRC Main Body. Don’t knock the officers who have worked hard to keep IRC running this year. They have good ideas for next year and I have faith in them to carry them - out. AJMaiii Body Representative Monday, 5 April 1976 . The Spectrum Page nine . �What's the catch?

Industry pays a college graduate more money because it is getting someone with an increased capacity to work. When industry pays a higher wage, it is not doing so out of altruism, as Cazeau’s neglectfully narrow view would seem to imply. It is because a college graduate can provide a greater service than a non-college graduate. Industry pays more becasue the graduate is able to produce more. In addition, it should be pointed out that industry, while it pays money for improved machinery that increases production, pays nothing for the improved worker (i.e., the college graduate). All it pays for is the service the college graduate worker supplies. ->■ This inequitious situation ought to be rectified by having industry pay for the service they receive from the University, i.e., industry roust be made to pay for tuition and any other costs incurred in the development of increased labor capacity. .

Nurturing and obeying on the job market (CPS) As women cheer their new working sisters onNvard to more equal opportunities on the job market, the nagging fact that most women are still channelled into the lowest-paid, non-unionized, service jobs shows up in all the statistics. Between 1962 and 1974, millions of women entered the country’s work force. They were having fewer children or they wanted to wait a few years before getting married. The cost of living continued to rise but their husbands were in danger of being laid off construction and manufacturing jobs. Their income made it possible to afford those little conveniences that made their hours at housework shorter. Many worked for the sole support of themselves and their dependents. The biggest gain for the new working women was in clerical occupations. By 1974, women held four out of five jobs as cashiers, bank tellers, payroll clerks and stock and store clerks. Breaking into the job market for most meant a continuation of the same roles they thought they left at home (serving, nurturing and obeying) for minimum wages and little hope of advancement. A big part of the equal pay enigma (women earned 58 cents to every dollar earned by men) is simply that women are clustered in occupations which are traditionally poorly paid. A recent Manpower Report confirmed that classification of jobs by earnings was noticeably similar to classification of jobs by sex. Overall average earnings in March, 1974 for private industry were $4.06 an hour while the average rates in occupations dominated by women were more like $3 an hour. The report also pointed out that not only are women concentrated in lower paying industries but can also be found in relatively large numbers in non-union businesses. And what about all the new professional women who have been advertised and promoted as evidence of the new liberation in the work force? According to the 1974 report, women constituted 40 percent of all professional employees, up only four percent from 1962. Clearly, most women were still being shunted into jobs as secretaries, clerical workers, waitresses, teachers, nurses, phone operators, bookkeepers, and lab technicians. Acting as assistants to the people who made the decisions was they way women first entered the office world and it has stuck with them ever since. According to Marjorie Davies, quoted in the Village Voice, it was during the Civil War that women were first introduced into government offices as clerical workers. U.S. Treasurer Francis Elias Spinner put the new help to work trimming paper money but found they were so good at it that he found other jobs for them, too. By 1869, Spinner was boasting that “some of the females are doing more and better work for $900 per annum than many male clerks who were paid double that amount.” And so the tradition continued. The repercussions of so many women joining the ranks of workers even while there is another income in the family could be serious. Alexander Cockburn and James Ridgeway of the Village Voice believe that job liberation for women will complete a vicious circle in which women always lose. With inflation eating away at everyone’s wages and threatened government cutbacks of social programs and welfare, more women will be pounding the pavement looking for jobs. And with so many people looking for so few jobs, it is not unlikely that women will settle for the same low-paying, dead-end positions they have always taken. And find that their liberation is simply a variation of their former enslavement. More SSTs mean more skin cancer, studies show (CPS) A “new world of Hying begins” on May 24, when the first supersonic transport roars into Washington, according to ads taken by Air France in the Washington Post. New studies indicate that the flights may be the start of a new age in skin cancer as well as SST exhausts damage the earth’s ozone layer. Reseaichers at the National Center for — J Atmospheric Research have found evidence that exhausts from the SSTs, which include nitrogen oxide, will readily react with the stratospheric ozone layer, destroying the ozone molecules. data Meanwnile, researchers re-examining cancer have found ozone with skin depletion linking that their original estimates of increases in skin cancer caused by ozone erosion were too low. New studies conducted at the University of California at Berkeley show that with a 10 percent decrease in the ozone layer, the incidence of skin cancer could increase by 40 percent instead of the 20 percent originally plotted. The Berkeley panel based its conclusions on the now largely accepted theory that a reduction in the ozone layer would allow more harmful ultraviolet rays from the sun to hit the earth. In the new study, however, consideration of more variables has increased the estimate of skin cancer due to ozone depletion. The new statistical model accounts for the differing dosages of radiation people receive depending on their clothes, occupation and natural tendencies to sunburn. Considering these new variables moved the estimates of increased risk of cancer up much higher than first anticipated, according to researcher Elizabeth Scott. Current estimates of skin cancer from the National Cancer Institute average slightly over 300 cases per year for each 100,000 population. With a 10 percent drop in the ozone layer; about 150,000 more Americans could expect to contract skin cancer each year. Although representatives at the Center for Atmospheric Research say that the British and French test flights permitted to land in the United States will probably have little effect on the ozone layer, a larger fleet of SSTs could do significant damage. And that erosion of the ozone layer would be added to that already caused by fluorocarbon propellants in aerosol cans and nitrogen-based chemical fertilizers. Although the House passed a bill to ban the SSTs from landing in the United States, the Senate recently “chickened out,” according to a congressional aide, when it realized a Ford veto couldn’t be overridden. The ball is now in the U.S. Court of Appeals, where the Environmental Defense Fund has filed suit to halt the landings. A House aide claims that suit will have a good chance, since it provides “solid, documentary evidence” showing that data on fuel range and safety for the jets was covered up by the Department of Transportation when it approved trial landings in New York and Washington. Home in the frontier (CPS) “Hashish factory visitors welcome,” proclaims the enticing sign on one mud-brick building. “Best quality hashish for sale,” says another nearby notice. These hashish factories, turning out tons of hard, black bricks which sell for $10 per pound, are located in the wilds of Pakistan’s Northwest Frontier Province and, according to the Christian Science Monitor they are giving Pakistani officials a devil of a time. The problem is that the officials can’t do a thing about the factories, thanks to centuries-old customs that have put the area’s nomadic Pushtu tribe beyond the reach of civil law. “How much longer can we let this ridiculous situation go on?” asks one angry Pakistani bureaucrat. For several decades, it appears. Given the strength of the local tribal chiefs, no one expects the hash trade or the false-bottomed suitcase business in which the Pushtus also deal, to be cleaned up overnight. “The government is going to have to get to grips with the problem sooner or later, and the time will come when the rule of law is estended into tribal areas,” prominent one Pakistani predicted. “Unfortunately it could take another 40 or 50 — — , years Monday, 5 April 1976 .

That’s right, running around. You see Dr. Gantz has entered the Boston Marathon for the fifth straight year, hoping to traverse . the 26-mile course as fast as he possibly can. It is a father strange hobby for the Communications professor, but Gantz has been running for eleven years, and says he loves it. “The Marathon is the longest running event there is. Some people run more, but I’m not that crazy,” said the mustachoied instructor. “Running the Marathon is the ultimate challenge to myself. “Running is not an easy thing to do. Sometimes when you hit a stride your body feels like a well oiled machine. That’s the best way I can describe it. That makes it all worthwhile,” said Gantz. By “it” Gantz means all the hard work and training that goes into preparing for a distance run. The long distance runner must put himself through grueling hours of work every day so that he will be able to go all out over the lengthy course. Gantz runs on the average of 12 miles per day, and sometimes goes for 20. “The last time I missed a day was in December 1973. I’ve run every day since then,” commented Cjbntz. Flat county The 29-year old professor has run into problems in training since coming to Buffalo this year. The Boston course is plotted over a series of hills, but the Erie County terrain is relatively flat, causing inumerable difficulties in pacing. “I need to run in hills, and Buffalo doesn’t have any. 1 consider curbs as my hills,” joked Gantz Gantz originally hails from Brooklyn, New York where he ran competitively for Brooklyn College. His experience at the metropolitan school left Ganti in with a sour taste in his mouth regarding an apparent lack of knowledge of the sport by school officials. “There was very little support for athletics at Brooklyn College. If my parents came to a meet it usually doubled the attendance,” said Gantz. “We ran little,'and the rewards were little. I remember at one dinner the university president said ‘One thing I like about athletics is that we don’t strive for 100 percent, we strive for 50 percent.’ I mean, here 1 am, busting my balls, and he wants to strive for .50 percent. Thai’s an example of the lack of understanding there is about the sport.” Although Gantz feels that Gantz will finish While such plans are nothing more than ideas right now, the Boston Marathon is a reality, and Gantz says that he intends to finish it. “Finishing is a questionable thing (due to possible injuries), but I think I’ll do it. 1 probably won’t do as well as last year because I haven’t had enough training time, 1 haven’t seen any hills, and the stamina and endurance are mental things, and I feel a little uncertain.” Last year Gantz finished the 26-mile course placing 163rd in a field of 2.000, averaging 5:52 seconds/mile for the entire course. He plans to maintain a slower "pace over the first half of the course, so that he can handle the hills on the last 14 miles. “1 suspect that I’ll be saying to myself, why am I doing this? I’ve met all the goals that I wanted. And at the end of the race I’ll be looking forward to next year.” But between now and next year there are 365 days, and Gantz will have to spend a good part of them back in the classroom, starting April 14th. r Sports Quiz This week Sports Quiz again is a baseball quiz with emphasis on the past. This means that freshmen will be at a distinct disadvantage in answering the week’s three questions. 1. Both the man and the dog in the above picture are now visiting one of baseball’s spring training camps where the man is trying to make a comeback after a successful but rocky career in the sixties and early seventies. Can you identify this bad boy in the big leagues? For extr; credit, name his dog. 2. Not including expansion clubs, what professional baseball team has gone without a pennant for the longest time? How many years has ii been since they last won? 3. Most people know that ex-Dodger Sandy Koufax was Jewish. But did he or did he not pitch on Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish year? Answers 1. The man is ex-Yankee, ex-Cub, and ex-who knows what else, Joe Pepitone who is attempting to make a comeback with the San Diego Padres. The dog’s name is Sally. 2. The Chicago Cubs have not won the pennant since 1945, making it 31 years since their last trip to the top. 3. Sandy Koufax never did pitch on Yom Kippur. Don Drysdale started instead. Monday, 5 April 1976 . The Spectrum . Page thirteen �Uruguay accused of torture tactics by Pat Quinlivan City Editor Amnesty International (AI), an independent and non-partisan group concerned with the protection of civil liberties, has discovered that the military-dominated government of Uruguay has been holding and torturing thousands of political prisoners, and that a number of people have died as a direct result. According to AI, there have been 22 deaths which can be directly attributed to torture practiced by the Uruguayan government. Some of these people were politically active in organizations which oppose the government; others had no political affiliation. AI says that “governmentally sanctioned torture, whether to extract information, intimidate the opposition and general public, or out of the petty sadism of police and military forces, is morally unacceptable in the third quarter of the twentieth century.” The military took power in Uruguay in the early seventies, after playing an increasingly important role in national affairs over a period of two years. The elected civilian pfesident, Juan Maria Bordaberry, willingly yielded his effective power to the armed forces in what was called an “autogolpe,” or “self-coup.” TUESDAY APRIL 6th Student Senate Meetin Haas Lounge at 4:00 pm * Fright flight Since that time, almost 12 percent of the population has left Uruguay, a nation of approximately 2,5000,000 people. One out of every 50 persons is a member of the police or armed forces, and a similar percentage has suffered from interrogation, arrest, or temporary imprisonment. The original campaign in Uruguay was aimed at the Tupamaros an urban guerilla movement, and began in April of 1972. This group was crushed within a few months, but the repressive activities of the government have continued against all left-of-center organizations, and All Senators must attend The future of U.B. , any elements found to be “subversive.” Methods of torture employed in Uruguay include beatings, burning with cigarettes, deprivation of sleep, thirst, hunger, suspension by the wrists, electric shocks, near-drownings and psychological torture. Victims of the tortures have come from all walks of life, including doctors, lawyers and workers, but more than half of them, according to the information available to AI, have been students. - will be decided at this if it isn't tabled. , Early disclosure The first case to come to public attention was that of Luis Carlos Batalla, which was officially corroborated in 1972. Since Jhen, the authorities in Uruguay havet taken a number of steps to keep other cases from reaching public attention. These steps have included threats to physicians and family members of victims; denials that arrests have , been made; refusals to grant permission that autopsies be performed; and faked suicides. Amnesty International has mounted a world-wide campaign of petitions that will be submitted to the Uruguayan authorities, urging that an independent international body be allowed to investigate the allegations of torture that have been made. Al cites the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the fifth article of which states that; “No one shall be subjected to torture, or to cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment.” The hope of Al is that the exposure of these excesses will help to turn Uruguay back toward democracy, so that it can regain the peace it enjoyed when it was known as the “Switzerland ol South America. Election circuit... —continued from page 4 they were “politically apathetic.” Rising to the challenge students of proving it isn’t so, some students staged a mock Democratic convention in early February in the Bowdoin gym, complete with students representing 387 delegates from the 50 states, the territories and the District of Columbia. After hours and hours of long-winded speeches, on-the-floor political arm twisting, many gatherings of small cabals and much chaos, Hubert Humphrey emerged from a smoke-filled room the victor on about the 10th ballot at 2:20 a.m. On the other hand, some University of Texas students have taken a different tact to show off their politics this year. Calling themselves “Students for Nixon-Agnew and Now Reagan (SNANR),” the group has sponsored a “Cans for San Clemente” drive, as well as campaigns entitled “Pennies for Lon Nol” and “Childrens’ Crusade for President Thieu,” saying they were the ex-president’s “favorite charities.” With the entry of politics, Reagan into national SNANR also showed the film, “Bedtime for Bonzo,” which stars the Republican candidate and a chimp. “We felt this campus needed electric political view,” one of the SNANR students explained. our The next best thing to home is THE HILLEL SEDER The Everything Sack—21" x 25", with drawstring and red wooden knobs.

Binghamton, centers Albany and Stony Brook. Of this number, 1.500 attend SUNY at Buffalo. Most major in the - The Office of Foreign Student Affairs (OFSA) will be abolished by July 1,. 1976 as part of the action calling' for legislative massive budget cuts throughout SUNY. All services provided by OFSA will be integrated into existing University branches. Mohammed Malik. Student Association (SA) International Affairs Coordinator, expressed fears that foreign students will no longer receive the attention that they need to cope with the disorientation and “culture shock” that occurs when the students are placed in an sciences and technical fields, and most return to their native country upon completion of their degree. Williams said. Malik, who is from Pakistan, claimed that the OFSA is a convenient location in which foreign students feel comfortable, and it is a place where they can go for all sorts of help. Malik said that he arrived in Buffalo diaonapted and homeless. OFSA staff aided him in finding a house and introducing him to life in this country. Foreign students feel that they must repiain politically inactive (due to their alien status) and hence feel powerless to fight OFSA’s demise. The bill which called for the elimination of OFSA stated that these services would be more appropriately handled by the student affairs office and that “foreign students don’t need a central reference point and identity to help with their problems,” according to Williams. Malik claimed that the legislative committee, which approved the cut, did not sufficiently consider the pros and cons of the decision. Vol. 26, No. 71 State University of New York at Buffalo Friday, 2 April 1976 Bankruptcy Students taking advantage ? by Cynthia Crossen Special to The Spectrum (CPS) If things really get bad for former students who can’t afford to repay their educational they can declare debts, bankruptcy. Bankruptcy means ,no more debtors breathing down i their necks, clean slates and zero credit. As the job market continues to slump, more students are taking advantage of the bankruptcy laws to relieve themselves of debts they are unable to repay. So, apparently, have many other people who have accumulated debts. But the the administration and Laws Commission on Bankruptcy have recently urged Congress to on crack down specifically Divide and lose Malik warned Siggelkow that if student bankruptcy. In response.

But the hardship provision is vague, lobbyists claim, and the decision on whether a student was in real hardship would be left to the direction of the bankruptcy judge or referee. The Pell bill in the Senate contains no hardship provision but would, if passed, allow students to defer loan payments for any one of the five years after the loan payments were due. This would only be moratorium permitted for students who were unemployed for the year. The in concession was made In hearings Some observers believe that the recognition of the “rotten job bills single out market,” the Pell aide explained. bankruptcy students as a class of debtors But there are no assurances different from every other kind of that the job market is going to debtor. “There is no evidence that improve in the next decade and students are worse debtors than college graduates have been anyone else.” a congressional aide warned not to expect professional positions in their fields for awhile. claimed. The House bill, now in hearings In the meantime, students will be before the Postsecondary denied their opportunity for a Education Subcommittee, does fresh start. declared student loans and bankruptcy even though he earned $11,000 annually. The lawyer was later indicted for fraud. Such cases, student lobbyists contend, are the exception rather than the rule. There will always be a few bad debtors attempting to sidestep loan payments. But nowhere is there substantial evidence of students being any more guilty of occasional bouts of cheating than any other single class of debtors. There are many “horror stories,” a National lobbyist Student Association argued, but no exact statistics. O' �GSEU strike vote Supplemental budget 1, 1976 will create a “much more restrictive” financial situation than faced in the current operating year, a University spokesman told the Reporter last week. Assistant Executive Vice President Charles Fogel said that 1976-66 will be more difficult because of several factors. The University’s base budget was reduced by 51,150,000, even before the Executive Budget recommendations were sent to the legislature. This means a cut of 60 full-time employees. The University had requested a pure workload increase of $6.4 million in response to a budgeted enrollment headcount increase of 968. Bad news The Executive Budget did not provide any of the increased workload request. Most fixed costs received increases amounting to $2,735,000. These included United University Professionals (UUP) and Civil Service salary increases. However, major increases in library acquisitions, academic computing other than personal services (OTPS) and graduate student positions, were denied New capital construction and planning monies were ( omitted from this year’s budget. The Executive Budget also made reductions of Diefendorf 146 to discuss the results of the GSEU strike vote and to discuss alternatives for action. All graduate assistants (GA's). teaching assistants (TA’s), $428,000 for rental facilities, and $24,000 in OTPS 133 Faculty Teaching for Health Sciences. positions (FTE) were cut also in F.quivalents addition to converting a number of 12-month jobs to 10 months. Enrollment down Although the original 1976 fall enrollment request was 26,330, budget cuts,have necessitated a scaling down of this figure to 25,400, allowing for no increase over last year. four The Legislature added further cuts positions in University Relations, six in the Foreign Student Office and $104,100 in monies for,utilities. Fogel indicated that as things stand now, 143 lines must be cut. Other positions may have to be frozen to comply with savings requirements. The Graduate student support package in the supplemental budget request is comprised of three components. The first is restoration of $845,000 in State University Scholarship (SUS) funds. The second would be a $389,000 increase in tuition waivers and the third would be to improve the stipends of 1,015 teaching and graduate assistants by an annual rate of $300. In the area of facilities rental, the University administration feels that the $428,000 reduction in rental funds is almost unachievable in 1976-77 because of existing leases and facilities requirements. The University contends that restoration of $423,000 is essential. Funding is also being sought for senior undergraduate students not eligible for money under the new Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) schedule. - Action continuing in fight against statewide cuts by Brett Kline on Franklin Street, in conjunction with students from the three Erie County Community College Feature Editor campuses. “A small, spirited march slowly left Haas Students from the Coalition to Fight Cutbacks, Black Student Union (BSU), and Buffalo State Lounge after the rally. About 75 people, chanting College urged 250 to 300 people in a crowded Haas “They say cut back, we say fight back.” and Lounge Wednesday to vote “Yes” on the strike “Education is our right, we are going out on strike.” referendum now before the undergraduate student entered Diefendorf Hall, marched through the students to join them. The students passed in front of the Parker Engineering Building and filed through Hochstetter Hall. Ten Security guards were reported grouped on the main floor of Hayes Hall, which is next to Hochstetter. Returning to Norton Hall in the rain, the protestors appealed to students to join the march, and, now numbering about 30, returned briefly to Diefendorf Hall and then quietly dispersed. Signatures of undergraduates supporting the seven demands of the Coalition and the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) were not presented to Ketter Wednesday as was originally planned. Signatures now number about 2000, according to a spokesman for the group. They will be presented to Ketter at a future date. building urging body. ballot boxes have been open since Wednesday and the results of the vote should be known tonight. An open forum, on the pros and cons of a strike, was held in Haas Lounge before the rally Wednesday. Asked what was the Student Association’s (SA) official position regarding the strike. Public Information Director Bill Finklestein replied, “SA is not taking a stand on the strike, because we are running the procedures here.” cited as examples speakers Coalition strike-related activities on other campuses across the state. Binghamton students stayed out of classes for two days in a strike that was termed about 70 percent effective by Coalition and SA officials. A rally was held Wednesday to determine further action. A member of the SUNY Board of Trustees will be in Binghamton Friday to talk with students.

Bronx and Purchase referendum A referendum calling for four meetings a year between students and the SUNY Board of Trustees, and questioning the Board’s ability to represent SUNY students, was brought before students at Purchase College Wednesday. The referendum also asked students wlrat they thought would be the most appropriate action at the present time. A speaker from Buffalo State College said that if undergraduates at this University call a general strike. Buffalo State students will "stand in complete solidarity with students here."

While students complained about paying more for less. Ketter explained that “your dollar outlay while living at home also requires in an inflationary cycle this happens. you to put out more One caller expressed concern that SUNY scholarships would be eliminated. Ketter replied that during the week, the SUNY Board of Trustees voted to recommend reinstatement of the scholarships into the budget, but legislative action is still pending. Another caller questioned Ketter concerning aid to private institutions, pointing out that New York allots $140 million a year to private universities throughout the state. Ketter conjectured that the fact that many members of the State Legislature are private school alumni may have some bearing on these allocations. ... •'’Ketter himself strongly believes in rtcHslnhdWg some of these funds towards state-run institutions. Poor timing ; \ Concerning today’s meeting between Student Association (SA) representatives and legislators to lobby against cutbacks, Ketter said that although the officials are eager to meet with students and lobbying might be an effective means of fighting cutbacks, he pointed out that the timing of the meeting is poor. Meeting with legislators before the cutbacks took place would have been more successful than now, he remarked. The elimination of a program is a “touchy, legal question,” according to Ketter. He said that to minimize the difficulty, they would try to “pljase a program down so that all the students that wish to finish where they started can, in fact, finish.” A student asked why the University can’t “tighten its belt” arfd absorb these cutbacks evenly, as“ opposed to eliminating entire areas. Ketter replied that the procedure in the past was to do exactly that. As people leave or retire from the institution, their vacancy wasn’t filled. But regarding the present financial crisis, he said, “We do not have sufficient turnover to accommodate requirements that have been specified for us. Therefore the next question is do we uniformally tighten our belts throughout the whole institution, or do we selectively make cuts?” FESTIVAL & QFM-97 PRESENT Sot., APRIL 3rd Niagara Falls Convention Center 8:00 P.M.

The Student Services and Parcel B teach-in, was Optimistic reaction Suggestions that the Record Coop and other services on campus pay rent and utilities for the space they use brought optimistic reactions from some of the panelists. Under this plan, the services would continue as non-profit ventures and therefore would remain tax-exempt. Referring to the Coop and other services, Lorenzetti declared that, “if the Coop paid rent, utilities and wages las the bookstore pays wages], it would resolve most of the chaired by Student Association (SA) Vice President for Sub Board Jan Roller. Guest speakers included Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti. Sub Board Executive Director Tom Van Nortwick. Assistant Vice President of questions.” Student Association (FSA) Auxiliary Faculty Services Leonanl Snyder. John Carter, a spokesman for University of Buffalo Foundation (UBF) who was scheduled to attend the forum, was not present, but it was announced that UBS representatives would be present tor today s SA forum with President.Robert Kelter. Turning to FSA and the University Bookstore, high Snyder defended the operation’s allegedly prices, claiming that textbooks are sold on only a 20 percent markup. According to Snyder, “if the Bookstore only sold textbooks, it would go bankrupt.” He stated that other products are sold at a larger markup to offset the lower textbook prices.” Board Lorenzetti opened the forum by describing Student Services as seen by the Sta(\; University (SUNY). the Chancellor’s office, and SUNY’s budgetary office in Albany. According to Lorenzetti, student services fall into four main categories: The Division of Student Affairs, including the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs, Foreign Students Affairs Office, Veterans Affairs, Career Guidance and the Counseling Center. The other Health Service, Admissions and divisions are Records, and miscellaneous student-operated Sub Restrictions Roller Van Nortwick described the can’t.” The second half of the teach-in dealt with Parcel B. He explained that it would be difficult to go into the situation without Carter, the UBF spokesman who was unable to attend. Parcel B, a 17-acre piece of land behind the Bubble on the North Campus, will contain 70,000 square feet of retail space, 20,000 square feet of office space, and 20,000 square feet of space for Student Services. The development will be subsidized by UBF and local businessmen with a possible interest in the project. services. Miscellaneous services are readily delegated to Sub Board, which handles all monies collected from Mandatory Activity Fees, he said. Sub Board is divided into three divisions: Health Care, UUAB and Publications. Lorenzetti then gave some historical background about the fee. It was approved in 1968 by former SUNY Chancellor Samuel Gould, on the basis that the monies would be collected by the University Bursar and then channelled back to Student Governments. In 1970, a student at SUNY at Albany filed suit against SUNY, charging that he was penalized for not paying the fee. The suit contended that since the money was being used for political speakers in which he was not interested, it was illegal to penalize him for not paying. The student won the suit, and SUNY’s appeal to a higher court. Can't be too high! According to the Hammer Report, a document containing tentative plans for the commercial development site. Parcel B, is open to all types of retail outlets to serve both students and the community. These include bookstores, clothing and shoe stores, a movie theater, a hotel, a florist and plant store, a liquor store, banks, and even an Betting establishment. But, as Roller said, the buildings cannot be too high. “It (the shopping center) has to be low because it can’t obstruct the Off-Track Reality Since then, Lorenzetti explained, a referendum is conducted every four years to decide whether or not the Mandatory Fee should continue. Guidelines were established by SUNY and the Chancellor’s office for how the monies may be spent. “Whether we like this or not, this is reality. The only way to undo this (the guidelines) is to vote down the referendum and not collect the fees at all, Lorenzetti remarked. Concerning the Record Coop, Lorenzetti said he could' hot freely discuss details of the situation because the court case is still in litigation, but he did say that the Coop “was not only a matter of mandatory fees.” He claimed that the Coop grew from a small operation in a boiler room in 1971 to an almost ‘S 25 0,000 business “enterprise” when it was temporarily shut down a few months ago. The time arises'When questions are raised by other people ‘ and problems SA and Sub Board have encountered because of SUNY restrictions on mandatory fee expenditures. Roller claims that at times, SA’s hands are tied. “If we wanted to send buses to Albany to lobby [in the State Legislature] for our Budget, we view of the lake.” Several students attacking the project theorized would .that commercial development of Parcel B that One claimed all student services. almost destroy student services would fall by the wayside, like the Record Coop, due to claims of unfair competition. The arguments against the Parcel B project drew from the crowd, and as the loud ovations atmosphere became tense, the panelists reiterated the that they were not the ones responsible for project, and it was unfortunate that the UBF representative was not in attendance. The forum ended with the announcement of a new Student Services Coordinating Committee, sponsored by SA, which meets three times a week in 205 Norton Hall.

Three interns will prepare profiles of all candidates in the September primary for New York’s Senate seat, and will work in either New York City or Albany. Two will investigate banking concentration and disinvestment in New York State, and will be based in New York City. According to NYPIRG, the six largest commercial banks in the United States control 30 percent of the nation’s total bank deposits, and funds from one geographic area may be used to promote business in another area, sometimes for political reasons. Applicants with background in economics will be favored for this project. different One intern aspects of the nuclear power controversy, and writing skills are considered a must. Another will be hired to investigate the possibility of opening a Consumer Complaint Center in Brooklyn to aid citizens in small claims court cases. A law student will aid in NYPIRG’s litigation program and two more interns will study the amount of pollutants in the Hudson River. NYPIRG’s most ambitious summer project will involve converting school a bus into a mobile teach-in and taking it to County Fairs across the state to distribute literature, sell publications and conduct public forums. Three interns will be hired, and strong preference will be given to applicants willing to continue working on the project in the fall. Most openings have no specific qualifications, and each application is carefully reviewed. “Generally, we look for interest and dedication to ten weeks of hard work,” said NYPIRG Director Donald Ross.

But then again, what is an ideal society? That may soon be the raging debate around the Jefferson County jail if Sheriff Harold Bray’s ad in Jobs in Philosophy magazine comes through. Bray, disappointed with the way deputies with other backgrounds dealt with crime in his county, took out the ad in the American Philosophical Association’s journal to recruit new deputies and he says the response so far has been “good.” “Philosophy is no farther out than a lot of backgrounds,” explains Bray, a PhD who specializes in Baruch Spinoza, the 17th century Dutch thinker. “In Plato’s republic, philosophers are the guardians of the state.” Bray escews the traditional cop’s view that police work is all busting heads and wailing sirens. He feels law enforcement’s task is to maintain public peace so that people may pursue their own brand of - happiness. “Aristotle said the goal of life is happiness,” declared Deputy Sheriff Duncan Bradley, Bray’s first philosophical recruit. on Pheremones; Find out nothing B.O. is bad, most everyone especially agrees.

APRIL 6th All Senators must attend The future of U.B. if research �Perlo says financial plight of schools could be alleviated by State corporations as the main source of poverty in the state. Perlo pointed out that banks here have made record profits in spite of the economic crisis. “How can it be otherwise when the state and city are openly run by bankers’ committees.” by Philip Moran StaffWriter Spectrum Victor Perlo, the leading economist in the Corrimunist Party of the United States, told students in Haas Lounge Wednesday night that despite claims of bankruptcy and poverty, much can be done to ease the financial plight of the schools in New York State. Perio’s lecture addressed the economic and political roots of the crisis in education in the state and the Tax too high Perlo indicated that only a 1 percent tax bn the market values of stocks, bonds and mortgages of banks and insurance companies in the state would be sufficient, for the time being, to solve all of the financial problems of the state. Of course, Perlo said, greater measures against the banks and big business could be taken that would achieve even greater victories in easing the financial crisis. Perlo said the other major drain on funds for education are state revenues squandered by the federal government on military spending. Perlo quoted New York Times business writer Sidney Fisch as saying that New York City and the metropolitan area paid $26 billion to the Federal government last year, and only got $3 billion back. Out of this $23 billion dollar loss, $8 billion went for official military spending, and $14 billion wfeiit fot related military spending, corporate subsidies, and funds for the CIA and FBI. Perlo declared, “Today the struggle against war and militarism and against the racist offensive has to be a key component to save education.” Saying that enormous military spending drains funds fpr education and goes hand in hand with racist wars like Vietnam, Perlo declared that no successful fight against military spending can be conducted unless there is a ideological struggle against the “Big Lies” used to justify record spending on military hardware. Perlo singled out the “Big Lies” of the “Soviet menace” and the danger of the Soviet Union outspending the U.S. government in defense spending. He condemned such liberal candidates as Morris Udall and Fred Harris for accepting the anti-Soviet lies of their conservative opponents. Perlo said the threat of Soviet “aggression” is a CIA concocted myth and that what the capitalist politicians are really crying about are the “historically inevitable” successes of the working class and the liberation movements that emerge out of country. Pointing out that the capitalist system of private appropriation breeds “wars, crises, racism, unemployment, inflation and monstrous corruption,” and that the crisis of education can only be solved completely through socialism, Perlo nevertheless stressed the necessity of building mass movement around the immediate issues of the deterioration of education and of social services which meet peoples’ needs. According to Perlo, these struggles can improve the conditions of life for millions and help lay the; foundation for the construction of socialism. ‘Reactionary offense’ Perlo said there is a financial and political “reactionary offensive” now under way against education and that it has a racist character. The political offensive is shown in the exclusion of blacks and minorities from faculty positions, and the elimination of progressive and radical faculty members from universities. The attack on progressive teachers is carried out by means of the “notorious contract system,” which “puts a faculty member on good behavior to the capitalist trustees befote he can get tenture rights.” Instances of discrimination against Marxist teachers pnd other progressives should be opposed by all sectors, Perlo skid. He called for unions which would discrimination against radicals, as well as blacks, women, and third world peoples. Perlo stressed the financial attack op the university; tuition hikes, the wiping out of scholarship funds, the “super-exploitation” of graduate assistants, and the elimination of popular university programs. He addressed the “lack of money” argument used to justify the financial offensive against education. Citing exorbitant salaries of high-level administrators and the high interest rates charged on construction bonds for school buildings as only contributing causes, Perlo singled out the tax laws favorable to the rich, the banks and the , | I capitalism. Another anti-Soviet slander is that it is exceeding the U.S. in defense spending, Perlo explained. Citing U.S. and Soviet budget statistics, Perlo said the U.S. spends three to four times more on the military than the Soviet Union. The capitalists’ arguments become entangled in a web Victor Perlo of contradictions, according to Perlo. For example, he said, the U.S. is always arguing that the Soviet economy is inefficient. On the other hand, they argue that the Soviet Union gets more military hardware for their money than we do because the U.S. economy suffers from inflation while the Soviet economy does not. Therefore, the U.S. government is justified in Spending more on defense than the Soviet Union. For the ruble Perio agreed that the Soviet Union does get more “defense for their ruble” but that the main reason the Soviet Union can protect itself without draining its whole economy is because the Soviet Union really spends on defense, and not on offensive and destructive weapons. Perlo said Pentagon generals openly admit this when they say that the Soviet military spending is “defense oriented.” Perlo said the American people must force their government to help make detente and peace an irreversible process. The Communist Party is the only party in the presidential campaign with an anti-war stance, he added and a vote for the Communist Party “is the most important vote you will ever make.” The Spectrum syndrome 9 The whimpering puppy tale by Cliff Dickson Spectrum Staff Writer In high school your pen glided across the page as jf the ink were replaced with quicksilver.

Now you've got it, the dread malady which debilitates much of the journalistic community of this University, The Spectrum Staff Writer Syndrome. Syndrome The syndrome is a combination of the staff writer’s fear of being edited, his creative frustration and the irrepressible urge to violate the anal regions of the paper’s editorial staff with a hot soldering iron. Veteran staff writer Jerry Rosoff describes the illness.‘The Spectrum Staff Writer Syndrome is the first stumbling block on the road to a weekly column in The New York Times. It is mortal terror at the prospect of the Editor-in-Chief butchering your article after ybur editor has hardly altered it.” This horrible disease does not only affect the writer. “Your friends all know you’re working on an article. You wait up all night to get a copy of The Spectrum then you read it and wish you didn't get a byline,” Rosoff explained. “I was not a violent man until I took up , journalism.” The Spectrum Staff Writer Syndrome is the 177th leading cause of death in the University community (right between red-tape strangulation and hysteria induced by the first glimpse of hllicott.) Research is in progress to find a cure for the syndrome. But research alone will not alleviate the suffereint of those already afflicted.

The highest court in the land, acting without hearing oral arguments on the issue and opinion, without writing an has thus upheld an On March 19, 1976,1 was arrested at Hayes Hall while demonstrating against the proposed cut-backs for the State University system. I am writing this letter so as to clear up any subsequent misunderstandings which have resulted from this arrest. Firstly, I have been charged with two counts of “disorderly conduct,” of which I am innocent. I was standing in the Hayes Hall doorway, outside the building, unable to move either in or out, when several members of Campus Security pulled me into the building. The following day, the 20th of March, the Courier Express, for unknown reasons implied that I was a member of the Revolutionary Student Brigade and the Buffalo Evening News made a loose inference that I, and other demonstrators, are a “different type of student.” I don’t know the exact meaning of this latter statement, attributed to an anonymous “University spokesman,” but I would say that neither implication is correct. I’m a SUNYAB student, like those of you reading this, who believes in quality education and social justice. It was for these causes that I had joined the demonstration that day, for President Ketter apparently believes neither ideal. Now I am beset by judicial and financial problems (hardships) which impede my academic energies. But this apparently cannot be altered. What can be altered is the oppressive course taken by some University administrators, as well as the larger course of this University towards establishing and implementing these goals of quality education and social justice. Thus I urge all GSEU members and undergraduate students to support the struggle at hand. Stephen C. Kline anachronistic 200 year old Virginia law that makes sodomy years in jail and a $1000 fine.

Unfortunately, The Spectrum has seen fit to hold out unwarranted hope to the student body; therefore this letter must help the students realize the importance of voting NO on the proposed student strike. There is very little chance of additional funds for SUNY in the supplemental budget being approved by the State Legislature, especially since there is almost no chance of the Legislature raising taxes this year. This is an election year, remember? Besides this, any additional aid for college students will probably go to individual aid rather than institutional aid. This is the prevailing feeling among Republican State Senators, who, for all intents and purposes, control the state. It is unlikely that supplemental monies would have an effect upon UB undergraduates. UB is the school that SUNY Central has requested the most funds for in the supplemental budget. However, the vast majority of this money is slated for graduate programs. SUNY was cut much more in the areas of Colleges of Liberal Arts and Sciences than in I he University centers, (Colleges; i.e., Buff State. Brockport, New Paltz). By all rights, these schools should have first priority in supplemental funds, so that they may be restored to last year’s level of funding. Buff State has been cut S1.2 million from last year’s level. To spend/our energies in organizing a strike which can only hurt our primary reasons for being part of a University community, that is, our job as students, is counterproductive. A strike is not, in my opinion, the way to appeal to the largest possible fraction of students. STudent strikes often lead to divisiveness between student factions, especially at schools with' great diversity in their student populations, instead, students’ efforts should be directed towards more noncontroversial methods of influencing legislators, such as letters, telegrams, and personal visits at local offices, combined with following through by voting in November. Legislators do not give as much weight to student protests as they give to protests by other groups, because the simple truth of the matter is that young people do not vote. Strikes also bring with them the possibilities of mass disorder and even violence. Ninety percent of the time and energy spent on the Attica issue last year was spent in trying to get the arrested students out of trouble. That was the result of the, last “strike.” To paralyze our student government for a month or two could prove fatal to most of. pur studviil services. A strike would most likely be a problem which would require an overwhelming amount of time, thus paralyzing the government. Whether the Coalition realizes it or not, and whether Spectrum realizes it Pr not, they may be 'Tin• engaging in exactly the form of useless, wasteful, protest that the administration would love to see, I suggest that we, the students, reject this dangerous, divisive and unproductive path and look to the piore effective method of turning the rascals out.

She fought tooth and nail to reach the top. He stumbled into stardom. They seemed to be the most unlikely couple ever to get together, especially since Gable was still married to someone else. However, anyone who sees this movie will be glad they did. Child actor James Brolin as Clark Gable is a little boy in a man's bqdy. He is too naive for Hollywood society, and determined to remain "just a farm boy from Ohio." This boyish charm and simplicity makes him a magnet for audience empathy from the start, despite a certain stiffness in Brolin's mannerisms and speech that makes his character more a C ark Gable imitation than another Clark Gable. Jill Clayburgh, as Carole Lombard, is just what Brolin's Gable needs to begin to realize his personality. At first she's a challenge to Gable's male ego because she is as big a star as he is and Sees herself as at least twice that. Brolin's stiffness makes Gable appear to be a slow-witted, super-macho oaf. Lombard strips this away by forcing Gable to compete with her in wit and personality. When she continually degrades and rejects him, he comes out with his first display of any sort of emotion in telling her what he thinks — GOOD FOOD RESTAURANT Hong Kong Chicken with vegetable.

Throughout their love relationship, she criticizes him for beinp so cool. It takes a big fight for him to finally say, "I love you." We can certainly feel sorry for Lombard as she falls for Gable like an over-emotional ton of bricks, telling him that he is the only man who ever meant anything to her, and that now he means everything, while he remains so cool/calm and collected.

Monday, 10-8 Tuesday, 10-2&4-8 Nevertheless Gable and Lombard leaves audiences feeling sorry for no one. In fact, it is generally like a situation comedy. The screenplay is very strong in entertainment value, with an abundance of good comedy situations combined very well with scenes of strong pathos. The end product is a film that takes you into the stars' lives, crying and laughing with them. The climax of the movie includes their victory over Hollywood's oppression. Gable's wife's consent to a divorce, and their victorious discrediting of a paternity suit plaintiff all in the same day.

Allen Garfield as movie mogul Louis Mayer is a big asset, as is Red Buttons as Gable's manager.* The biggest thing that the film has going for it the names "Gable and Lombard," but the screenplay, however historically inaccurate it may be, is good enough to stand on its own without the appeal of the stars it was named for. This is a good, slick production, and recommended for those who go to the movies to be entertained.

Page nine �'Alley Between Our Houses' The whole is not the sum of its by Terry Koler Spectrum Arts Staff A grave problem arises when the whole is not the sum of its parts. The Alley Between Our Two Houses, written by Jeff Brooks, encounters such a problem. While the acting cannot be faulted and the scenery is adequate to convey the messages each scene intends, the scenes themselves lack the explanation necessary to enable the play to flow smoothly and stand on its own merits. The opening scene introduces the audience to Sol, the lead character, home for the summer recess from Stanford. He has a penchant for reading by a garbage can in the alley by his house. The scene quickly changes to a session between a therapist and her retarded patient. Here the play runs into the problem of lacking continuity between the first and second scenes. To further compound the confusion, each actor plays several different roles throughout the play; rather than continuing in the same characterization, the role is lost in another portrayal. Not according to Webster's The schenes, which alternate between reality and fantasy, are not defined clearly enough to let the audience folly appreciate their meaning. This, however, is not to say that the scenes are not done well. They are. In each scene, be it Sol's imagination bringing human attributes to cats or his mother's actress Mary Jo Lipinczyk's plea to a ghost of yesteryear, the acting reflects painstaking diligence and rehearsal. The voices are clear and falter only when the script calls for faltering. A confusing sequence of scenes begins with Sol's nightmare envisioning his love, Maria, masochistically dehumanizing herself before an unfeeling, god like man. Sol also sees himself running to her rescue and then realizing that she would rather have the disinterest of the god-man than his love. Then there is a scene in which Sol relates his fears to a psychiatrist, followed by one showing him and his mother on board a slave ship brutally driven by the slave master, and giving way to a string of fantasy scenes taking place in a cave and a monastery. Finally, Sol envisions Maria as a num, making love to him. — / Laying the blame That is how the play ends at intermission, leaving a bewildered audience pondering whether their confusion is their own problem or the play's. Proceeding from the premise that a work must either stand or fall on its own merit, without further explanation, it appears that the play was most likely at fault. According to the author's explanation of his work, which, he says, is a play travelling between "alleged poles" rather than "having a theme or message," the first act details the problems of love, while the second act deals with those of heroin. The second act seems totally divorced from the first, except for the carry-over of the characters of Sol and Maria. There is the introduction of two of Sol's friends and his reaction to pot, in a schoolyard scene, as well as his first try at heroin, done to please Maria. A fantastic performance is turned in Debra Granieri as Viva, the heroin distributor. She never sways frofn her "four letter" repertoire. There is also a fine soliloquy by Maria during a heroin trip. The finale is perhaps the most confusing scene of all. All of the characters are assembled on stage, first pointing to Sol and then to a garbage picker, who sings ". goin' down cripple creek, goin' downtown..." now portraying a dancer.- Sol leaves the scene, touching most of the characters and finally going out of sight. The fault of the production may lie in Ray Munro's direction, or perhaps in its actual composition. Either way, Alley definitely cannot stand as is. ..

The remainder of the country-rock audience will have to be content with Eagles/Doobie Brothers schlock or the rehashed sound of competent non entities like the Outlaws or Pure Prairie League while deciding whether or not to give Poco one. more chance. It is ironic that Poco Live is not a breakthrough album. Poco has always been hailed as one of those "you-gotta'-see-'em-live" bands that keep record companies interested through their live reputations. Witness the Allman Brothers, Bruce Springsteen, Peter Frampton. Their excellent first live album. Deliverin', almost pushed them to the top. Now, eight albums later, Poco's second attempt at the live-rep formula is as much a failure as it is belated. Poco could match bad-break stories with almost anybody in show-biz. The worst was when a Texas radio station fat cat censored sure-hit single "Come On" off of the air and out of the charts. But their nemesis has been lack of direction, not bad breaks. Unlike such talents as Todd Rundgren and Nils Lofgren, they haven's decided upon which aspect of their sound is most valuable to them. Poco Live points to a path which could reduce them to the inanity of "liT bit 'o country litt|e-bit-of-rock and roll" Donny and Marie Osmond. The following of this please everyone formula can only leave the Poco discipleship to mumble, "It's good, it's good, but it should be so much better." Side one begins with a country medley which is a first rate performance of second rate material. Next is’ a sparkling rendition of guitarist Paul Cotton's acoustic masterpiece, "Bad Weather." This side ends with "Ride The Country," which contains a delicate guitar duet which is cut much too short. Side two is more electric and more rock. The eerie spaciness of "Angel" opens things up with a sound which is out of character but a welcome change of pace. The rest "High and Dry." "Restrain" and of the album is great patty music "Good Feeling to Know" though nowhere is the locked up potential of these full blast rockers ever really unleashed. The vocals on Poco Live are good by rock standards, but for a group that built its reputation on plush high harmonies and country a cappella that surpassed everyone in the field, just plain good is not much of an accomplishment. In fact; performance by all members is "good," but in an art-form as limited as rock, good is never good enough performers must always push their material as far as it will go. Even the finger picking virtuosity of Rusty Young (who plays six different instruments and has pioneered pedal steel techniques which have won him the reverence of his colleagues and the honor of being staff consultant for Guitar Player Magazine) is hardly evident on this album. Poco Live is on the Epic label and must surely fulfill the group's contract obligations to Epic. They are currently signed with ABC Dunhill which, so far, doesn't seem to be doing much more for them than Epic did. Perhaps the ABC execs are also mumbling Guest Speaker, Reb.

But beware the girl-child who crosses Nils only to encounter his wrath: "We're going to the river/ I sure hope you can float/ Good luck." The musical cast of characters that comprise the changing nucleus of Lofgren’s studio band is uniformly excellent. Aynsley Dunbar's drumming is explosive and Tom Lofgren's guitar harmonies bespeak an intimate brotherly communication with Nils. Lofgren's voice is a pleasing mixture of waifish innocence and hard nosed raunch. The backing vocals, courtesy of Nils, Buddy Miles, Claudia Lennear and others, are effectively integrated into the total sound scheme. Lofgren vividly demonstrates his talent for playing a blistering guitar, sublime simplistic tunes, and an affinity with the nuances of rock vocalizing. Place all these pieces together and you have a chilling rock and roll manifesto. Cry Tough will produce tears of joy for anyone vaguely interested with the fate of rock. So simply roll up your sleeve and get your shot of Rock 'n Roll via Nils Lofgren. —C.P. Fark as - 2/25 Lb.

The geneology of Nils' mountain climb to pop popularity began with Neil Young. Lofgren, after introducing himself to Young, gained the privileged sitting in on Young's After the Gold Rush sessions. He played piano and provided backing vocal support. Parting from Young, who was busy journeying through the mad shadows of the past. Nils formed Grin. Essentially a Lofgren vehicle, Grin was the arena where Nils could hone his craft by quietly constructing infectious melodies that were sired by demonic guitar work. After producing four albums with Grin, each attaining modest success at best. Nils figured it Was time to test his wings for a solo flight. The result was an album, suitable enough titled Nils Lofgren, which began to fan the flames of excitement over his potential and growth. A&M cleverly augmented the level of anticipation by releasing an authorized bootleg to wet the whistle of critics and radio jocks, and to create and stimulate an eager audience for Nils' next move. That next-movement is Cry Tough, and it's a superbly executed collection of fireworks. Perhaps Nils' greatest attribute resides in his intuitive ability to hit the rock jugular vein with unerring accuracy. Throughout, Lofgren's rhythms swell with a seductive allure which collars your attention from the first accentuated beat right through the rousing choruses and hooks. The production, by David Briggs and veteran rock artifact and flim-flam man Al Kooper, colors and layers the music, yet never derails its firey intensity. The implementation of synthesizers and horns are employed tvith the best of taste, always furthering Nils' rock vision and never intrude as mere studio frills. What is intriguing and finally amusing about Lofgren is his quasi-romantic lyrics. In classic punk prose Nils spins out lyrics that are so drenched with adolescent concerns that you can almost smell the Clearasil. Lofgren's writing centers on fidelity in a relationship that more often than not terminates in betrayal and heartbreak. Traditional motifs such as unrequited love find expression in "Can't Get Closer" which chronicles the tale of a guy who can't — - - STUDENT TICKETS ONLY ONE BUCK!!

They call themselves The Good Old Boys and perform- like they're a bunch of guys just getting together for a Saturday night of fiddling around. A few of the songs here are ones previously done by the New Riders except they're framed in a pure country vein. All of th§ cuts are two minute foot-tappin' numbers that go flying faster than the ear can hear. These boys sing together (not necessarily harmonizing) and do their pickin' damned fast. Take) note of such instrumentals as "Banjo Signal" and "Too Wise Special" where you can hear each member of this banc£ solo from speaker to speaker and you'll probably Wonder how these gdys can move their fingers so rapidly. Jerry Garcia produced this fine record and took the trouble to make the recording sound tinny to give the effect of one of those old Flatts and Scruggs albums your granny played on her victrola. Most of that great banjo work comes from Don Reno and listen for it in your right speaker. The fiddle accompaniment by Chubby Wise might give the impression to your friends that you're a genuine emergence into the world of jazz with its Horizon label. The artist roster represents a broad spectrum, including Dave Brubeck, Sonny Fortune and Jim Hall in addition to Dave Liebman and Thad Jones and Mel Lewis. Thus far the most noteworthy aspect of their endeavor has been the packaging of the albums. All contain lengthy and descriptive liner notes, with helpful graphic stereo scores of each instrument.

Both Thad and Mel were veterans of the brilliant Gerry Mulligan big band. Unquestionably it was that aggregation which was the inspiration for the current Jazz Orchestra. Much of the credit for the sound of the orchestra must go to Thad Jones. His charts are fresh and exciting, the arrangements original and swinging. The members of the orchestra are far too numerous to list individually, but there must be some mention of Roland Hanna's timely piano work, the energetic trumpet of Jon Faddis, as well as Thad Jones' expressive flugelhorn. Dee Bridgewater's bravure "The Great One," vocal performance on accompanied by chorus growls of "We loved him, We needed him, WeTI miss him," make it the definitive testimonial. Buffalo's own Frank Foster is superb on tenor in the album's final selection, "A Good Time Was Had By All." The incorporation of Armstrong Dixieland codes is demonstrative of the timelessness of his works. In this year of nostalgic commerciality, Suite for Pop looks over its shoulder with enough simple honesty to recall the renaissance of the big band sound. Doc Severinsen, I hope you're listening. Let me add a quick word about A&M Records „ Announcing: • > since iui Kingfish (Round) Grateful Dead guitarist Bob Weir has joined New Rider's bassist Dave Torbert to create Kingfish, a group named for the sea's mystical trident bearer. Together with three unknowns, they have produced an album of wide musical variation and taste. Although Weir is basicallly a rhythm guitarist, he is quite capable of writing solid songs. "Lazy Lightnin' is a great opener; a good up tempo number, but not so out of control that the following cuts seem tired by comparison. "Supplication" uses great special effects: believe it or not, this track sounds like portions of the Moddy Blues' collection Every Good Boy Deserves Favor, with its single word lines and constant repetition of the lyric's last syllable. Torbert's influence is felt probably to a greater extent on this album than Weir's. Both "Wild Northland" and "Asia Minor" have a Western flavor, as does "Big Iron," the account of a gun battle and other such desert fantasies, Matthew Kelley, the third guitarist of this assemblage; is also an adept harpist. He rounds out many tracks perfectly, joining with lead guitarist Robby Hoddinott to give a touch that ordinarily a pedal steel would supply. Kelly shines brightly with a wilde harp solo on "This Time," co-authored with Torbert. Although the Dead were originators of a style that has yet to be duplicated successfully, Weir and Torbert have borrowed from techniques of others with promising results. I seem to hear the Eagles and Poco singing out those oohs and aahs in "Big Iron." The reggae influence is here too, in a traditional entitled "Bye and Bye." And of course, the Good Old G.D., moves like a spirit through "Jump for Joy" (running back to Frisco). Aside from all the aforementioned influences, the best track is one that is completely unique. hick Watch for The Good Old Boys at the Mini-Folk Festival this weekend. They’re definitely worth a look-see for some get-down-to-it bluegrass. —Drew Kerr " I "Hypnotized" has a stunning rhythm track, with Weir doing some of his best guitar work on the album. Drummer Chris Herrold takes a beautiful ■percussion break midway through the song. The variety on this disc is so diverse that one can appreciate what group members could do if given free rein to explore. Weir and Torbert are able to evade one particular mold. To most Jerry Garcia and John Dawson represent the major figures in the Dead and the Riders, but the two leaders in Kingfish have proven that they are integral members of both bands. Weir has always been my personal favorite of the Dead, and this album showcases his talent marvelously. Finally, we have gotten a solo release without "Playin' in the Band." Let's hope to see more of this in the future. —Barbara Komansky Friday, 2 April 1976 . The Spectrum . Page thirteen �{ VOT1 | I TODRY | ' , ; I| .

No rift in CSA To the Editor. dismayed by the displayed in Mr. John Fung’s letter which appeared in The Spectrum on March 29. I was compelled to write to you because of the incorrect picture presented by Mr. Fung of the Chinese students and their organization I was shocked irresponsibility and and immaturity here. r Mr. Fung says: “already there is a rift between the Chinese students, Cantonese and Mandarin." I strongly disagree with him on this. The fact that Chinese students from Hong Kong and Taiwan speak different dialects (though they use same written language) does cause some difficulties in their communication, and there is indeed a lack of communication among some students. But there has never been any antagonistic feelings or rift between them that I, a five-year-old Buffalonian, have ever heard of, except some personal conflicts between individuals. Indeed, friendship and cooperation have grown. This should be evident to those who have taken part in the various kinds of activities organized by the CSA in the past year. One good example is this year’s China Night which, without the full support and cooperation of the Chinese students both from Hong Kong and Taiwan, would never have been made possible. Mr. Fung’s assertion of a rift between Chinese students from Hong Kong and Taiwan and his suggestion of a possible separate club for students from Taiwan seemed to me that he, for some reason, was trying to sow discord among us. Mr. Fung acted very irresponsibly when he charged the Service Party on the grounds of what he had overheard (J!), instead of its published policies and goals, which happen to be opposite to his $ W1W.’ • I also didn’t understand Mr. Fung’s undue dpncem over the Service Party which he claimed to inactive, unorganized, disunited and have not qtfnpaigned much at all.

On March 31 we went to Norton Hall to cast our ballots. The individual manning the ballot box instructed us to mark the ballot, place it in a white, legal envelope, write our names and departments on that envelope, and seal them. We were then told to place the envelopes in the ballot box. When we highly protested that this procedure was objectionable we were told that we could not vote unless we followed this procedure. The person overseeing the balloting explained that a certified public accountant or a notary public would check the names on the envelopes to make sure that only ballots of graduate assistants and teaching assistants would be counted and that “ballots and envelopes would be separated later.” Any democratic election process necessitates the complete secrecy of election ballots. The G.S.E.U. should have taken the necessary steps prior to this election to obtain a computerized list of all graduate assistants and teaching assistants. I.D.'s could have been checked at the time of balloting, and names could have been checked off the appropriate lists. Though we do not doubt the sincerity of the G.S.E.U., we must protest the manner in which this election was conducted. Michael D. Kitchman, Graduate Assistant Student Testing and Research .

Follow the student revolutionaries who scream for the sixties. Get your goddamn accounting degree. Find a wife, raise a family. Vote for Carter and live in suburbia. At least you knew what the sixties were all about. Orwell haunts my mind: “and the pigs looked like the men, and the men looked like pigs; soon one couldn’t tell the difference.” The pigs and men were arguing over the ace of spades. talk. The They say cutbacks, we say fight back, I say bullshit. Let’s face it boys and girls, the sixties are over. We can’t spend the next 20 years living someone else’s myth. Turning off the sound of the protestor’s bull horn one can easily see Hitler or Mussonlini leading the mindless populace. These students are playing Ketter’s game, living Ketter’s rules. If this is enlightenment, give me ignorance. If this is the “new order” of things, give me anarchy. We cannot follow the reason of crypto-fascist reverie. Are these “student organizers” (for economy of space I’ll call them dictators) looking out for our best interests? Obviously no one wants to pay more for fewer services. What happens if student services are cut? Fewer student services mean lower stipends for these dictators; perhaps the elimination of some dictatorial posts. Consequently, the dictators have the wisdom to recognize the necessity of student services. They are Ketter. They only care about their phoney-baloney jobs and money. They call for the resignation of Ketter. They dream of taking over his post. The dictators' belies* they could be Our enlightened and benevolent despots.

A Concerned Chinese Strident Strike vote denied To the Editor As an MFC Undergrad I was not allowed to vote in the strike referendum. Upon investigation I was told that MFCSA gave a statement of support to SA which eliminated the need to have MFC students vote. The question I now have is not whether to strike or not, but what gives SA and MFCSA the right to arbitrarily deny me and the rest of the MFC students the right to vote on so important an issue. I would think that if a strike is agreed upon and any MFC. students cannot attend class that they would have the right to bring suit against SUNY for loss of services as a result of not being allowed to vote.

There are at present approximately 1100 teaching assistants and graduate assistants on this campus. It has been estimated that, in their various capacities, they are responsible for about 40 percent of the teaching of undergraduates at this institution. However,' the significant role they play in the educational process is frequently overlooked. This is the case largely because historically graduate student teachers have been seen as “apprentices.” In today’s University, however, it is also true that in significant numbers they are employees with large educational responsibilities. As a consequence, their relationship to the administration of the University is in many ways similar to that of faculty. Not only do TA’s handle recitation sections, but in many departments they have full responsibility for whole courses. Elsewhere, they perfrom tasks that non-student professionals are regularly employed to do. Under these circumstances, unionization and collective bargaining are both appropriate and necessary to ensure quality education, high morale, and good working conditions. Among other things, the graduate students are asking for a guarantee of tuition waivers and a S4000 minimum wage. Certainly without the former, few graduate students would be able to continue their study at all, and graduate work would become a luxury to be pursued only the by relatively wealthy. and hence, In addition, graduate education in general at this undergraduate education University would be severely jeopardized, (iraduate - students have been funded at the same level for many years now, and given the high rate of inflation of the ’70’s, the need for a fairer, more realistic wage should be self-evident. Not only are such demands reasonable in themselves, but it is also in the interests of faculty to support them. The conditions of our own work are significantly affected by the fact that graduate students, in classrooms, laboratories, and offices, shoulder as much responsibility for the work of the University as they do. We urge all faculty to support, in whatever ways they think feasible, the organizing efforts of the Graduate Student fEmployees Union.

He has married her, and through the family, binds her to him as wife and mother to his children. He has kept her helpless and dependent, forcing her to work when he needed her labor, beating her isolating her, (physically or psychologically), and as a final proof of his power and her debasement as a possession, a thing, a chunk of > meat, he has raped her.

Rubin Sports Editor One of my fonder boyhood memories is heading down to Healey’s Luncheonette on Long Beach Road next door to one of the many bars in my hometown of Island Park. (Although it isn’t documented, Island Park probably has more bars and liquor stores percapita than any other community in Nassau County.) Every spring, Healey’s was always the first place around town to get in the latest shipment of baseball cards. Along with good weather, the appearance of baseball cards each spring was always a landmark event. It signalled the beginning of that agonizing time between the start of spring and the end of the school year. Those first baseball cards, along with little league registration, and opening day, made school seem like an absolute r, waste of time. ;/ It is true that some things change. School still seems f., never ’like a waste of time, and I still have that boyish mentality when it comes to baseball. Now that I have a driver’s license and a car the urge to purchase a "Tew packs of 1976 bicentennial year cards was too much. Unfortunately, I failed to remember that I am in that grand city of Buffalo. Back home on Long Island, every 5 and 10 store, • and drug store carried baseball cards all season long. But in Buffalo, people laugh at you when you ask them if they carry baseball cards. And if they don’t laugh, they look at you as if you were some kind of an idiot. My search for baseball cards was long and arduous. Rite Aid Drugs, Park Edge, Ulbrich’s, Super supermarket, Duper, Bailey-Lisbon Drugs, Two Guys and Muellers were all lacking the beloved rectangular pieces of cardboard. I went into Lee’s Drugs, and I asked them if they had “Bubble Gum Cards.” Bubble Gum Cards is the somewhat antiquated name for baseball cards, but it appears to be the name best understood by local merchants. The cashier said yes, they had them, and I raced to the spot she pointed out. But I was totally crestfallen when I discovered that they stocked just hockey and football cards, mere afterthoughts of Topps’ baseball creation. That’s real nerve. My search finally ended at a local Convenient Food Mart, and I vowed at that moment to more patronize that store regularly as a token of my gratitude. I noticed that the price has changed somewhat in the pasf few years, probably due to the high salaries players get these days. The old five cards and a stick of stale bubble gum for a nickel routine has been replaced by a more Professors against varsity team cuts As far as Student Association (SA) is concerned, if track, cross country, and fencing are to continue at all next year, they will do so who are only on a club level. But there are other people around campus not so sure that the three orphans have indeed received the permanent >«n inflationary fifteen cents for ten cards and the same stick of stale gum. I bought four packs. I staved off the urge to open my packs right then and there, preferring to wait until I could truly revel at my desk in The Spectrum office. They now sit in front of me as I write, and I had the most trying of experiences opening them. As a staunch Met fan, I was hopeing for a least a Jerry Grote or a Mike Phillips, if not a Tom Seaver or an Ed Kranepool. The first pack produced nothing, however. Ron Cey and Richie Zisk were the only proven professionals I got. The second pack was no better. Not only were there no Mets, but no Yankees came up either. I did pick up the 529-660 Checklist, though, and it sported the names of such greats as Henry Aaron, Tug McGraw, and Bert Campaneris. There were players turkeys on the list too like Dyar Miller, Marc Hill, Adrian Garrett, and Stan Wall. And of course, there were regular guys like Stan Bahnsen, Clarence Gaston and Wayne Twitchell. The third pack was good and bad. I finally got a New Yorker. But he was a real turkey. He was a Yankee, and if that’s not bad enough he was Dick Tidrow, possibly the worst player on a team of losers. But at least he was a New Yorker. I also picked up ex-Met Tim Folis but to find a Tom Seaver or a Buddy Harrelson or a Jon Matlack is like searching for water in a desert. Four cards gone in the last pack and no Mets. Eight cards gone and no Mets. But on the ninth card, the 39th of the 40 I ( the bull - Despite these generous offers, it still remains doubtful that any of these sports will be maintained as varsity sports. Student Athletic the savings Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia feels that even with to field available enough money still is not on coaching salaries, there competitive teams in the three sports. But Gantz and Babus are trying to disprove that theory. Gantz explained. “I would in no way attempt to make an offer that would deny a coach’s salary. However, he was quick to add, “1 would hate to see college runners not have a chance to run competitively because of a lack of funds.” Plenty of know-how Both volunteers are experienced enough to serve as coaches if necessary. Babus and Gantz have been fencing and running respectively for many years, and each has some coaching experience. Gantz looks forward to the chance to coach. "The desire to coach has been a goal of mine for many years," he said. it is strictly finances that stand in the way of Gantz and Babus: There is still time for SA to alter the passed athletic budget if a feasible means for funding any or all of the llu** sports surfaces, Gantz believes that SA funds can be complemented by funds raised by the athletes, and that in some cases, athletes could be persuaded to buy their own equipment. But in the end, the costs of transportation and other necessities which cannot be paid by individuals will still have to be found in the SA budget, and right now, it is questionable whether the search will be successful. realized. Baseball cards are extremely informative. Although they are only and three-eighths two by four and three-eighths inches, you can learn an awful lot from them. For instance, take this year’s car No. 59. On the front is Larry Hisle posing in a batting stance in front of some first base dugout. Besides the snapshot, the front of the card also tells that Hisle plays for the Minnesota Twins and that he is an outfielder. Turn the card over, and a wealth of statistical information is tiiere for the taking. Where else but on a baseball card could you check up on Larry Hisle’s batting average in 1970 (.205) or his home run production in 1974 hometown or his (19) Lou Hartford, Connecticut under the assumed name of Lou Lewis in 1921. And on the back of Ellie Rodriguez’s card, we learn that Rodriguez tied the American League mark with 19 putouts behind the plate in August of 1974, and that he also caught Nolan Ryan’s fourth career no-hitter on June 1, 1975. any course, Of like baseball card self-respecting person, I never buy more than just publicizes the fact played Gehrig in that few packs, but increase my holdings by “flipping,” a process by which talented people win cards from untalented people. But a somehow. I’ve never heard anyone say that they ever lost any cards flipping, which leads me to the ( conclusion that all those kids who flipped and lost must have been struck dead by four balls. In any case, armed with photos of Sugar Bear Blanks, Dave Lemanczyk (who by the way is not . from Buffalo, but from Syracuse), and Dennis Eckersley, I (Portsmouth, Ohio)? am now ready for the baseball Additional tidbits are also season to begin.

A similar offer for been made by assistant fencing coach Bela Babus. bought, a gem was uncovered. The New York Mets team card was mine. From Jesus Alou (who has already been released by the Mets) down to Hank Webb, with a special insert of rookie coach Joe Frazier. My fondest dreams were Assistant Sports Editor When the Big Four Conference was formed last spring, incorporating Buffalo, Canisius, Niagara and Buffalo State into one league, one of its goals was to increase interest in intercollegiate athletics in the area. However, as the Big Four heads into the final third of its inaugural year, about as many people seem interested in the new Conference as in a table of natural logarithms. Around Clark Hall, no one was terribly excited about any of the Big Four matches. In basketball, which was supposedly the Big Four’s premier sport, Buffalo coach Leo Richardson viewed the then-upcoming game against Buffalo State as just another ballgame, even though the outcome of that game would decide the conference winner. Many of the Buffalo swimmers felt that the Big Four championship was merely a warm-up for the Upper New York State Championships. There was no visible increase in attendance for Big Four matches, nor was there an increase in coverage by the local press. The Big Four’s largest crowd was 5200 at the second basketball doubleheader at the Niagara Falls Convention Center, but only about 1500 showed up for the first Big Four basketball doubleheader featuring Buffalo against Canisius at the Memorial Auditorium, which year’s the crowd at last was less than Buffalo-Canisius game. At the Big Four women’s tennis championship, which was the closest and most exciting of the Big Four tournaments so far. there were, at most, four spectators and one reporter. It also doesn’t help that two of Buffalo’s more popular sports, hockey and wrestling, are not included in the Big Four because none of thd other three schools field varsity teams in those sports. Some of the schools do field club teams in hockey and they are immensely popular with the students. Canisius and Niagara also have very popular club football teams, but Buffalo does not even have a football team. One easy way to increase interest might be to declare an overall champion, based on all sports, at the end of each school year. This was one of the possibilities mentioned when the Big Four was formed, but so far, no system of determining a winner has been picked. If four points were awarded for the first place finish in a particular sport, three points for second, and so on, an overall champion could be determined. Using that system, right now Buffalo leads with 27 points, but Buffalo State has 26, so this spring’s baseball, track and field championships would decide the grand winner. (Both Canisius with 19 points, and Niagara with eliminated.) 17 points, are mathematically Not to be overly negative, it should be pointed out that this is only the Big Four’s first year of operation, and there are still bugs to work out. Hopefully, there will be some improvements next year, and maybe even some advance publicity for events other than basketball. The people who formed the Big Four had a good idea, and it still can turn out to be what they had intended. Friday, 2 April 1976 .

More American homes are without indoor plumbing or refrigerators than are without tv.” These observations were made Frank Monday night by Mankiewicz, author and social commentator, to a large audience in the Fillmore Room. Mankiewicz was Press secretary for the late Senator Robert Kennedy from 1966 to 1968 and in 1972, he directed Senator McGovern’s campaign for the regularly be no discussion of fee.

He is currently working on a book about the affects of tv on our society and in running Congress for Frank Mankiewicz Montgomery County, Maryland. “People, by the time they reach your age will watch an average of 20,000 hours of tv,” ihstnace, he said, Danny Thomas, Mankiewicz told his college age who plays a family doctor in a audience. “People bom now, if new show, took thte role to they live to be 65 years old, will inspirt a new generation of watch nine years of tv.

Within 52 minutes the problem is solved, usually with violence. These problems usually involve parties of influence in our society doctors, lawyers, and police, he — said. Programming involving doctors a usually specified follow sequence of events, according to Mankiewicz. The doctor will of care you need and can afford. Mankiewicz stated that the Surgeon General has determined that the malpractice problem in this country is due in part to the Welby syndrome.” “Marcus People feel their own doctors should treat them in the sgme way Doctor Welby treats his patients on tv, he explained. The tv lawyer will take the difficult case and always win, Mankiewicz said. The lawyer has no other clients, he works all day in court and then at night, flics to another city to bring in a surprise witness to save his client. The policeman becomes the villian, pictured usually overweight, and brutal. Dull life Mankiewicz, unjust, himself an attoumey, said tv lawyers do not lead the “dull momocromatic life” of most lawyers. In real life, lawyers are overworked and can ot spend most of their time on one case, but jurors tend to compare them to the “tv lawyer.” “On a police show, the police iffecti' thr enormous amount of time, usually an entire squad, and within 52 minutes, they solve the crime” Maniewicz said. The lawyers on police shows are usually men with silver hair, moustaches, and often conspire with the criminal. are normally Police and underpaid, “overworked, harrassed," said Mankiewicz. He cited a report issued by the Rand Corporation which concluded that techniques, like police fingerprinting and lineups, are usually mostly for public relations purposes. The victim or the victim’s family expect it because that is what they see every night on tv from 8 to 11 p.m., Mankiewicz added. Ability counts “Commercials are a fascinating part of tv, there is more racial integration in commercials than there is in real life,” said Mankiewicz. Tv has shown the children of our society on all levels in which skin color does not matter but ability does. “What tv is interested in is developing maximum size audiences . .. producers will chose exciting and violent news in order to attract viewers,” Mankiewicz said. He cited the busing riots in Boston as an example. In cities like Denver, however, where court has busing been ordered successful, it fe not reported on nightly news programs. “Conflict resolution on tv is guns, almost always violent fists, knives, or psychic violence” siad Mankiewicz. “Children by the time they are 15 years old will see 11,000 killings in their living — de*' Protests continue over cuts by Brett Kline Feature Editor Student action across the state continued over the weekend and early this week in response to cutbacks in the state and 40 university budgets. Over students attended a meeting in Binghamton this past weekend, including representatives from Purchase, New Paltz, Oswego, Erie Brockport, Binghamton, Community College, Buffalo State College, and SUNY at Buffalo. A set of common demands, similar to those of the Coalition here, were agreed upon at the meeting, but there was little discussion of common actions. Most of those present felt that students were too involved in protest activities on their own campuses. Scott Breen, representing this University at the meeting, stated, “It was a step in the right direction, toward a statewide Coalition, the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU), and the Black Student Union (BSU) called for total student support of the strike, now planned for April 6. “We will be showing our strength to everyone across the state,” said one Coalition speaker. “Ketter has shown us whose side he’s on. Now it’s time for action,” she continued. Another coalition speaker cited budget statistics, which indicate that with the increase in tuition and dorm rates, students will pay for half of the $53 million in cuts, the other half coming from the slash of certain programs and departments. The GSEU speaker commented while the departments of that Management, Engineering and Health Sciences are getting more money and faculty, Social Sciences and Humanities are being cut. He encouraged all undergraduates to support the conference.” The Universities of graduate student strike, now set Binghamton and Buffalo are, in for April 7, by not crossing the fact, sponsoring a statewide picket lines. “The BSU supports the conference on cutbacks the Coalition and the strike ]00 weekend of April 9. percent,” said Abdul Wahaab, BSU representative. He urged all Strike call at rally At a'rally in Haas Lounge on minority students to strike, Monday, attended by about 200 remarking that they will be people, speakers from the effected most by the cutbacks. Coalition speakers called for all students and faculty to attend the rally today in Norton Hall and the subsequent march to Hayes Hall, where petitions calling for a halt to the cutbacks will be presented to the administration. One speaker also mentioned student the support for statewide Teamsters strike today. Bradley Angel, a Coalition leader, was “satisfied” with the turnout in Haas Lounge on Monday, “considering the minimum amount of publicity.” Morrie Fox, another spokesman, commented, “The turnout was good, but there should have been more people here today. Some people don’t seem to care about their own lives and by not doing anything, they are aiding and abetting the administration of the cutbacks.” Other schools act Students at SUNY-Binghamton went on strike Monday. As The Spectrum went to press, they were planning to extend the strike for an indefinite length of time. The strike was estimated by Coalition and SA representatives to be 70 percent effective, with, in some cases, teachers and civil servants honoring the students’ efforts. Pickets were maintained in two-hour shifts and teach-ins held workshops were throughout the day. Buffalo State College students had a rally on Monday night, calling for a strike on Thursday, but details were not available in time for publication of today’s The Spectrum. The Coalition at Purchase has and called for a statewide moratorium on April 28, so that students may attend Legislative sessions in Albany.

It operates a ham radio from Norton Hall capable of worldwide transmission. The Student Association (SA) supported club belongs to the American Radio Relay League, an organization that consists of amateur ham radio operators throughout the country. The organization enables these radio operators to send messages, or “traffic,” to all parts of the world. The club is housed in Room 324 Norton. To send a message, one simply writes down the message with the name, address and phone number of the recipient, also including the return address. If no one is in, it is possible to slip the message under the door with all the information requested on the door of the room on it. There are even codes for certain messages. All messages should be kept under thirty-five words. Although it cannot be determined when the message will arrive, it will eventually reach its destination by telephone or mail. FCC licenses The message is sent by a web of amateur radio operators. One of the operators becomes “net control” for a section of the country . (The country has three sections, served by the East Coast Amateur Radio Service (ECARS), MIDCARS and WCARS.) He keeps a log-of all operators who call in and then coordinates them so that traffic will properly reach its desired destination. of the club’s fifty-four members have Federal Communication Commission (FCC) licenses, which is necessary to be able to send traffic. The unlicensed members can only hang out at the club. Obtaining a novice license requires passing a twenty-question written exam and being able to read Morse Code at five words per minute. A novice gets his own call letters and can transmit by,Morse Code only. In order to speak on a ham radio, it is necessary to pass another FCC test which includes reading thirteen words per minute of morse code. Armand Canestraro, a club member, says the club and its members “are there to help students and to be a public service.” Tyo examples best show how they do this. A SUNY at Buffalo student wants to talk to his parents in Bogota, Columbia, but doesn’t want to pay an expensive phone bill. His parents mail him the call letters of a local ham operator along with a time and a frequency. The student then notifies the club of the time so that a capable licensed member will be there. He goes to the club and the two ham operators make contact. The South American operator then phones the parents and plugs the phone into the radio. The student and his parents speak to each other for free. The only catch is that the two operators’ countries must have a “third party agreement” or else no messages can be conveyed by the ham Forty Teach-in on campus issues “Teach-ins” on the SUNY fiscal crisis arid campus-oriented issues like student services and student participation in Parcel B will be held Tuesday through Friday during the undergraduate strike referendum. Events co-sponsored by the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks and the Student Association (SA) include a Budget Symposium (held yesterday), a ciscussion of student services and Parcel B today, a workshop on the recent report of the President’s Acdtlemic Planning (PCAP) Committee on tomorrow, and a forum featuring area legislators Friday. The purpose of the Budget symposiuih is to bring students into contact with people who can explain where cuts will be made and how the budget is prepared, according to SA. “We are currently inviting people to attend the symposium, but have not received any definite responses as of yet,” said President Steven Schwartz. “Impartial” position The debate on whether to strike will be held over a two-day period “to allow all students to hear both sides of the issue and provide them with sufficient information for making their own decisions,” according to Schwartz. Speakers from all branches of the University community will be featured. Schwartz asserted that SA is taking an “impartial” position on the issue of the strike. “We do not have the right to dictate how students will vote in this referendum,” he declared. Deriding last year’s successful campaign by SA to have students vote to retain the mandatory fee, he reaffirmed his position that students should have more control of their educational experience. Highlighting the week’s activities will be the forum with members of the State Legislature. None have committed themselves to attending yet, but responses are expected shortly. “We expect to meet with these people prior to the forum on Friday in order to brief them, to the specific issues at hand, and lobby for support of student demands,” an SA spokesperson said. Schwartz claimed that the sole place students can Steve Schwartz look to for the repeal of the tuition and rent increases is the State Legislature, and thus, it is important to establish communication and set up such forums. Coalition’s events Workshops, rallies, and forums are also scheduled by the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks. A rally called for Wednesday will be followed by a talk by Victor Perlo on “Economic Crisis and Education Cuts.” The Coalition will-coordinate a series of workshops Thursday where traditional academic units and programs, as well as the Colleges, minority groups and service organizations, will meet to discuss their special problems in facing the budget cutbacks. Also included in the SA-sponsored events will be a debate on the PCAP interim report. ,“We are having some difficulty with the Committee because they have a policy of not discussing the report in debates or forums,” remarked Schwartz. Scheduled for Wednesday is a forum on student services and moves to place student representatives on the Board of Directors of Parcel B, the planned commercial development on the Amherst campus. ' Ham radio makes for an interesting hobby Fighting apathy operators. Disaster help The second example hits closer to home. During the recent earthquake in Guatamala, most phone and power lines were destroyed. Ham tadio operators provided the vital service pf communication. Their radios can be run on batteries or from a generator. Club member Lonnie Keller handled incoming calls from people in Guatamala to friends and relatives in the Erie County area. Canestraro notes, “The radio served as a link from an area in which normal communications were knocked out to an area where communication was available,” Ironically, Keller had to notify the concerned people by using a pay phone booth because SA had removed the club’s phone. SA owns all the equipment of the club, which includes a thirty-five foot tower and a four-element antennae on top of Norton. The club, which is open to anyone interested in ham radio, has a budget of approximately $600, according to Canestraro. Everyone is welcome to join.

Wednesday, 31 March 1976 . AGENDA: There must be a representative from each SA recognized organization, except the academic clubs, at this meeting �Outstanding talent to be appearing at folk festival So you’re down with spring examinitis, or terminal boredom? Well, there’s no surer cure for those Buffalo blues than some good home-grown music. And you’ll find some of the very best of it at the Buffalo Mini-Folk Festival this weekend (Friday night, all day Saturday, and Sunday afternoon) in Norton. Hall. What makes the Festival “mini”? Not the schedule: there’ll in the be evening concerts Fillmore Room on Friday and Saturday nights, workshops and a crafts fair all day Saturday, and a free square dance on Sunday fever, - Toronto’s Owen McBride will be there too, with his rousing renditions of traditional British ballads and sea songs; it’s his first stop in Buffalo in four years (and high time). Bill Staines, an old UUAB Coffeehouse favorite, will be providing his patented mix of guitar picking, left-hand breathtaking yodeling, and his own fine songs (his “Bless My Soul” is a particular favorite of mine). Friday night also provides a meeting place for two confusingly instrumental named virtuosos: Bowers, one of the half-dozen people on earth who can really play that push-button zither called the autoharp, and Brian Bauer, slurping out zany blues, swing, and Dixieland jazz with Dr. Jazz and the Ukelele Ladies. Rounding out Friday night’s program is Buffalo’s (and own the ‘University’s) award-winning bluegrass band, Billy Hamilton and Bluegrass Bryan Almanac. Michael Cooney afternoon to wind things up. A full slate, I’d say. The talent is hardly “mini,” either. Take Michael Cooney, who heads up the Friday night concert, Veteran of every folk festival worthy of the name; singer of every kind of traditional and folksong; of player impeccable banjo, 6-and-12-string guitar, concertina, and harmonica; great storyteller; a constant reminder that folk music belongs to all of contemporary us. Also appearing on Friday: Leon Redbone, the mystery man who was a folk legend even before Dylan said he’d want Redbone if he had a label. His lazy, sour-mash versions of old blues, country and jazz tunes from the ’20’s and 30’s simply have to be heard for themselves. Gras ’n Bloom On Saturday night, Michael Cooney and Owen McBride make return appearances. In addition, you’ll be seeing the Good Ol* Boys, high-octane anbthcr bluegrass amalgamation whose energy source is Frank Wakefield, the former Greenbriar Boy who’s one of our very best ’grass mandolinists. Ken Bloom has his own set of flying fingers, and he uses them on an equally amazing assortment of instruments: guitar, electric zither, and Ukranian 48-string guitar! (I’ve heard him play fiddle tunes on the last-named, and it’s something to see.) Traditional, contemporary, and original songs are his stock-in-trade. Dcbby McClatchy has been building a reputation for a while as a fine writer of country-flavored songs (her tune “Best of Friends” has especially been getting around) and singer of music of the British Isles; the Festival’s her first visit to Buffalo. Formerly of the Wildflowers musicians co-op (Utah Phillips was also a member), Bob White will be playing a wide range of music from Jimmie Rodgers and Woody Guthrie to contemporary and children’s songs. (According to Rosalie Sorrells, he shoots quite a game of pool, too .,.) To fill out the evening with some good-time sounds, Dr. Amazing Breathing Zarcon’s Machine will be ragging on out old-fashioned, their with new-fangled blues, country and jug band sounds. Both concerts begin at 8 p.m. each night in Norton’s Fillmore Room. Tickets are $2.50 per night in advance, $3 on the night of the concert; get them at the Norton and Buff State ticket offices. Everybody’s a star Just as the concerts will be mixing some fairly big names with lesser known but equally fine performers, Saturday afternoon gives you a chance to see a number of local musicians who cover a variety of styles, in addition to the “major” talent. Haas Lounge will be the scene of a free “local performers’” concert from noon until 5 p.m., with Ed O’Reilly, Joanie Schwartz, the Boot Hill Boys, Khatmandu, Bill Edwards, Linda Namias, John Simson, Becky Mitchell, and more more more. The workshops on Saturday afternoon are where you can find out more about the instruments, styles, and kinds of songs you like the most. There’ll be workshops on kids’ songs, women’s songs, and banjo, autoharp fiddle, dulcimer, songwriting, and other topics of interest (take my word for it). They’ll also be going from noon until 5 p.m. Music isn’t all that we can make for ourselves, of course. A crafts 'fair in Norton’s Center Lounge will feature many fine local craftspeople displaying work in a variety of media; it’s also set for Saturday afternoon. If rushing from concert to workshop to crafts show hasn’t worn you out by Sunday, spend Leon Redbone remaining energies square dancing. There’ll be a free dance, your with the Blackthorn Ceilidh Band providing the afternoon at 2 music, p.m. Sunday in the Fillmore Room. Hopefully, there’s now available a schedule of exactly what’s happening where through the whole Festival, with more info on the performers as well. Check the Norton Information Desk or the UUAB office (261 Norton); if it’s not there, sit tight, they’ll be ready soon. The people to thank for the Buffalo Mini-Folk Festival are the UUAB Coffeehouse Committee, Music Committee and Video Committee. - Debbie McClatchy Bill Maraschiello Positions in the Peace Corp difficult to secure by Anthony Schmitz Special to The Spectrum Finding work with the Peace Corps has become even tougher than cracking the gloomy domestic job market for liberal arts graduates. The volunteer agency has been flooded with applicants eager to join a staff that has shrunk steadily since the Peace Corps heyday in 1966. Nearly 29,000 applications came piling into Peace Corps offices last year from persons looking for jobs in one of the 68 countries receiving volunteers. Administrators were left with the job of throwing out more than 80 percent of them to round out the 6,400-member staffAlthough requests from developing nations for volunteers has risen, funding for the agency has not. The Peace Corps’ budget has shrunk from a peak of $114 million in 1966 to $81 million in the 1976 fiscal year. Under pressure to tighten its belt even further, the Corps is expecting $67 million next year. Along with the budget, the number of volunteers put to work has shrunk since the salad days under President Johnson’s Great Society. While 15,000 volunteers filled the ranks in 1966, that number has dropped by about 60 percent over the past ten years. Would-be volunteers armed with bachelors degrees can expect a hard time cracking the agency. Even though the subsistence living allowance and native housing doesn’t and seem glamourous, the Peace Corps is asking for Oman, and one woman dropped out after she heard that liquor and sex weren’t readily available,” the volunteer said. — technicians and skilled laborers to fill the limited number of positions open. While a BA graduate with knowledge of French might still be able to find a job with the Peace Corps, the agency has been shying away from unskilled workers in recent years. Architects, nurses, municipal plahners and persons with agricultural skills have a chance of finding jobs, while history and English majors are usually left to take their chances on the American marketplace. In spite of extensive screening, about 15 percent of the Peace Corps staff drop out before finishing their hitches. Like Scharnhorst, who decided that “I don’t regret going into the Peace Corps and 1 don’t regret coming back either,” they leave for reasons ranging from physical hardships to the lack of liquor and sex. A volunteer recently returned from Oman said that although her “group was a good one, three people never showed up in Philadelphia,” where the group departed from. “One man dropped out a week after we were in getting — Dissatisfied hosts Of 12 Peace Corps volunteers who went to Oman in 1974, six were left at the end of their scheduled stay, according to the former volunteer who didn’t wish to be identified. Rumors have it that the Omani government has been displeased with the staying power of the last group of volunteers and the success of the next group will “be an important factor in whether or not the Omani government continues to request volunteers,” the former staff member , said. George Wakiji, a press officer in Washington, said that although the Corps recognizes the attrition problem, in many cases it might be understandable. After a recent survey of Peace Corps projects in Guatemala following the earthquake, Wakiji said he found volunteers working in conditions “that 1 don’t know if 1 could have put up with.” But with 29,000 applications and a tough domestic job market, there shouldn’t be much trouble finding replacements. Wednesday, 31 March 1976 The Spectrum Page three . . �Private carriers Congress eyeing end to the U.S. Postal Service monopoly — competitors. Sen. James L. Buckley (Con., N.Y.) recently introduced a bill in Congress which would allow private carriers to try for the United States Postal Service market. The Buckley bill would remove all restrictions on private carriers including the prohibition against anyone but the Postal Service using mail boxes for deliveries. Twilight zone The use of private carriers to avoid paying the recent 30 percent rate increase for first class mail has already begun even though Postal Service attorneys say these businesses operate in a legal twilight zone. In providence, R.I., the electric company hand-delivers bills to 60,000 of its customers. The employees who deliver them are former electric company workers who would have been laid off. Other people are beating the rising cost of postage by paying as many bills as possible in person and carrying their own business mail to close offices. So many people have boycotted the new rates that volume in January was down 4.6 percent from the same period a year earlier. And more and more packages, a major source of income for the Postal Service, are finding their way into United Parcel Service and other bulk carriers’ trucks. The Postal Service’s bulk mailing operation has turned into a financial catastrophe but the situation is past the point of no retun. The United States has already spent more than $1 billion on the 21 new bulk mail centers around the country. Former Postmaster General Winton Blount’s construction firm wound Israeli rock musical The Jewish Student Theatre Guild has not yet become a force to be reckoned with on this campus but after tonight, all that will change as the undergraduate group presents the Israeli rock musical To Live Another Summer (To Pass Another Winter). Produced by the Jewish Student Union, the musical will be performed tonight, tomorrow-, and Saturday in the Katherine Cornell Theatre of the Amherst Campus’ Ellicott Complex. Two more performances are scheduled for April 10 and II at the Jewish Community Center’s Delaware Building, 787 Delaware Avenue. According to Director Selwyn Falk, a JSU member who has studied at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City as well as performing off Broadway and in Buffalo dinner theatres, the group’s main objective is “to bring Jewish theatre to life in Buffalo.” To Live Another Summer is only the first production of a repertoire which is expected eventually to include translated versions of the best in Yiddish and Israeli theatre, produced at the rate of one new show per semester. Tickets for the Cornell Theatre dates are available at the Norton Ticket Office. For ticket information for the Jewish Community Center or for any performance times, call or visit the Jewish Student Union Office, 344 Norton Hall, 831-5213. - "Play n 9 ZS BTTZTALO'S 1ST AND &AA( OUTLET USED RECORD 1000* TOP ALBUMS •CHOOSE FROM OF Page four The Spectrum Wednesday, 31 March 1976 . . up with $91 million in contracts to build four of the bulk mail centers, according to columnist Jack Anderson. - Side trips The idea of the centers was to fully mechanize the processing of second, third and fourth class mail to take the load off other post offices which could then concentrate on first class mail. What it has come to mean is that packages must travel thousands of miles out of their way just to be processed. Since the bulk mail centers have been in operation, millions of packages have been lost or damaged by the elaborate machines the Postal Service uses. In one sorting process, packages are dumped automatically into a huge trough some 10 to 12 feet away. If a light package is on the bottom, the contents frequently break or the box splits open. Many times the addressed wrapping comes off and then the post office tries to find a clue to the package’s destination. Often they don’t. A second major financial problem of the Postal Service is that their employees’ wages have risen 50 percent faster than the cost of living in the past six years and the Postal Service is not allowed to lay employees off simply because they are being used less. After the 1970 postal worker strike, the two big postal worker unions demanded wages more in line with priVate industry than with civil service positions. So mail workers in positions which were considered GS 5 level in 1970 are now making $12,149 a year to their civil service counterparts who are making only $9,819 annually. To afford to pay their workers, including their brass who make more than most top figures in Washington including senators and congresspeople, the Postal Service has increasingly depended on subsidies from Congress. Sen. Buckley says if the Postal Service is stuck with all the expensive routes that none of the private carriers would find profitable enough, then the government would give direct subsidies to those areas. Repeal of the Postal Service monopoly laws would ‘‘let the forces of competition provide this country with the kind of efficient mail service it needs and deserves,” Buckley claimed.

Some of the Affirmative Action officers presently hold more than one job at this Disagreement reigns among members of the University community oyer the and effectiveness of the sincerity University. Susan Hanson, an assistant professor in the Gcorgraphy Department, agrees. She said many people within the departments by Diane Gitlin Affirmative Action program af think that the Affirmative Action office is “one big pain in the ass, because it requires an extensive amount of documentation and vast quantities of forms.

Black Student Union Executive Board member Abdullah Wahaab charges that administration insincerity is responsible for crippling the effectiveness of the Affirmative Action program. Based on his own experience with Affirmative Action and Human Resources Development office (AA/HRD) personnel, specifically Director of Minority Student Affairs Roosevelt Rhodes, Wahaab said he has “total confidence in the Affirmative Action program and the AA/HRD personnel, but they are only as effective as the administration will accept their recommendations and work.” Increasing public awareness But unuke Wahaab, Hanson feels that the administration is sensitive to the issue of equal opportunity. Now, more than ever, she said, the administration wants to avoid being tabled as discriminatory, due to an increasing public awareness of unequal Wahaab claims the administration doesn’t, recognize or respect the suggestions of members of the Affirmative Action program.

Disinterested Wahaab said that it was not the administration’s concern for equality which led them to establish an Affirmative Action office and minority programs. It was only to comply with federal guidelines and appease existing tensions. However, he maintains that the administration isn’t interested in expanding minority opportunities on this campus. He cited efforts to phase out the Black Studies program and prevent reinstatement of Molefi K. Asante as acting director against the wishes of many students and , members. The administration faculty hasn’t taken a strong stand of support for the continuance and improvement of programs aimed at assisting minorities, he also said. Wahaab was not totally critical of the Affirmative Action program, however,, both he and Rhodes are working on a tutoring service, already approved by the y Black Medical Association, that would be available for entering minority medical students during the summer.

The Student Senate felt that some form of action should be taken in response to the following budgetary decisions: ' (A) the mandate of both a twenty-four million ($24,000,000.00) dollar increase in income generated by the State University of New York (SUNY), and a twenty-seven million ($27,000,000.00) dollar decrease in state appropriations for SUNY in Governor Hugh Careys 1976-77 Executive Budget, (B) the State Legislature’s* passage of a budget which mandates the elimination of 143 positions at SUNY at Buffalo (SUNYAB), and (C) the SUNY Board of Trustees action to comply with this mandate by voting unanimously, without debate or discussion, to raise tuition fees and dormitory rent for the 1976-77 academic year. These decisions were in direct conflict with Governor Carey s statement in 1974 that “the State, not the students, must bear the costs of higher education” and the premise that higher education in the State of New York is a right, not a privilege, which should be open to all, not just those few that can afford to pay for it.

The University is planning the first of its “exist exams” this spring for graduating students. The exams were mandated by the Regents last October.

A recent study published by the United States Office of Education indicates that 22 percent of Americans over age 17 are illiterate, 32 percent were found to be marginally literate. These people, said Kilty, cannot read beyond the sixth or seventh grade levels. But many types of everyday reading material, ranging from the instructions for a frozen TV dinner to the directions for drugs, must be read at the eighth grade level or above.

So voracious, that over the past ten years, the 58-year old lawyer has filled his Greenwich Village apartment with 15,000 books from the New York Public Library. Firemen discovered Feldman’s extensive collection when they made routine check of his apartment after a fire on a lower floor of the building. Books covered his stove, filled the bathtub and sinks and were piled in each room to the ceiling, leaving-only a two-foot pathway. Asked how he got the books out of the library, Feldman said, “In large quantities.” Why? “I like to read.” - What will Disney do when Bionix man is elected president? (CPS) Abe Lincoln, all six feet four inches of him, can wiggle and squirm 62 different ways but Dick Nixon just stands there and frowns. The scene is Disney World’s Hall of the Presidents, where, according to The New York Times, 20,000 people traipse through the colonial style theater each day, with 20 million having seen it since the Florida amusement park opened four years - ago. What they see is a 23-minute show starring 38 electronically-controlled and computer-operated robots, each representing one of the nation’s presidents. They are “illustrious men,” a voice of the human persuasion intones, “whose names have been indelibly inscribed on history’s role of honor.” Lincoln, -who gives snippets of several famous speeches, is the only presidential robot programmed to speak. Nixon stands immovable, which sometimes moves the crowd to snickers. Gerald Ford’s bionic double simply nods his head. After the show, doors open and the crowd proceeds through a curio shop where they may buy Lyndon Johnson creamers, JFK busts or Richard Nixon glazed tiles. The show, from all accounts, is a success, even in these cynical times.

But unlike musicians using more conventional instruments, Collins plays his music by beating a nine-inch wrench against his head. He claims that he discovered his musical talent when he banged his head into another man’s during a rugby match. It was the first time, he says, that his head produced a clear musical note. “People who hear me think I need to have my head examined,” Collins said, “but 1 don’t even get a headache after a musical session.” The Heroin “Epidemic” increases (CPS) Heroin addiction in America is increasing steadily, and the traditional patterns of heroin use are changing, according to the — government’s top drug-abuse expert. The heroin “epidemic,” said Dr. Robert L. DuPont, director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse, is spreading from the east coast metropolitan areas into small cities and towns across the country. “Heroin has become a national phenomenon,” said DuPont, noting that blacks and whites now use it equally. In addition, he said, the number of female heroin addicts is rapidly approaching the number of male addicts. There are currently an estimated 300,000 to 400,000 daily heroin users in the United States. The peak of heroin use was in 1971, when there were between 500,000 and 600,000 daily users. In 1972-73, the number of addicts dropped to 200,000 to 300,000. The decline was due to Turkey’s ban on the growth of opium poppies, and a growing number of drug treatment centers. But now most of the heroin comes from Mexico, and the number of treatment programs has leveled off. DuPont anticipates no reduction in the currently climbing rate of heroin use. Lower tuition puts pres behind sink (CPS) At private schools where tuition has soared during the past decade, new plans of action for reducing costs to students have been devised by thrifty administrators. At Franconia College in New Hampshire, cutting tuition almost $700 a year has put the college’s president and its dean of students in the dining hall washing dishes while students try their hands at cooking, running the bookstore, keeping the school’s books and recruiting next year’s freshman class. The changes are all part of a radical reorganization which has cut the administrative staff by 40 percent. The idea, according to' Franconia president Ira Goldenberg is to attract students of more modest means (although tuition is still $4,985 a year) and help the college break even financially — next year Wednesdy, 31 March 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �Guest Opinion EditPrwl teaching.

We urge all undergraduates here to vote YES on the strike. papers which indicate that some day one The demands being made by the Graduate Employee’s Union (GSEU) are Student important demands. 1 address myself, however, not to those demands, but to the very fact that a number of graduate students feel large unionisation is the way to. articulate them. (I am Though not a GSEU member myself I currently employed outside the University) support unionization. I don’t claim to offer an unbiased analysis here; but I believe the analysis is plausible. GSEU members are trying to be responsible adults in an institutional context which forces them to be adolescents. By “adolescent” I mean a person whose social importance is linked to what he/she will be doing at some future time for which his/her present activity is but a preparation. A college senior becomes a graduate student because his work indicates that, with proper training he will be capable of doing work of importance to the academic community (few first and second-year graduate students are immediately capable of doing work worthy of one of the publication in professional journals activities expected of an adult in the academic community). Hence the graduate student is an adolescent in training to occupy an adult role. But teaching is not an adolescent activity. Whether supervised or not, teaching is an adult activity. The activities of a graduate student who is teaching are of immediate consequence to the students being taught; the teacher is responsible for and to his students. The teaching activities of a graduate student are not, in some pecular way, unreal in comparison to the teaching activities of those who hold doctorates. The same is true of the activities of students who are doing research. Research activity; whether in the library or the laboratory, is immediately important to the academic community. an considerations hold for Similar undergraduate.- The student who writes a paper for his composition teacher is learning to write. That composition is important only to the student and his teacher (and perhaps some classmates). Writing an article for The Spectrum, for Ethos, or for any other publication, is quite different. The author of such an article is accountable to the readers of the publication, to those written about, and to those responsible for running the publication. Weak arguments and factual errors elicit angry letters to the editor; work well done garners praise. The student who takes a course in juvenile delinquency in which he must work with a juvenile delinquent is engaged in an activity whose immediate consequences extend beyond whether or not she gets a good grade. That is very different from a course in which one only reads theories about - — As quality education in New York State has steadily eroded over the past several years (and that erosion has accelerated during this past year), students are being told to pay more and receive less. The hiring freeze imposed by the state has ensured that class sizes will increase, that teaching loads will be heavier, that already marginal services would be cut back, and that the attention afforded each student by their instructors will be diminished. Budget cuts have vicious infighting over achieved their predictable result who gets the remaining crumbs. Coming at this time, the recent Interim Academic Planning Report served to fan the flames, as it urged program eliminations and increases. — The right to a quality education is a non-negotiable one in any civilized nation, and if this right is threatened (as it is now), then there is no alternative but strong action. Our society continues to insist upon a college degree to get any sort of decent job. Yet, by conscious design of our state government, we are being forced away from public higher education toward private colleges that charge $5000 a year and up for undergraduate studies. It is a myth that we have all been taking too much lately and that we must retrench now a myth which consciously aids the corporate interests that have always run this state. — Plans for a SUNY-wide strike early in April are now being formulated. It is the responsibility of this school, both as the largest SUNY unit and as the one most heavily affected by cutbacks, to take the leadership in bringing the state back to reality. The Graduate Student Employees Union here is currently voting on whether to strike starting Monday. If their strike vote should succeed, we would hope that undergraduates would honor the GSEU picket lines and support them in their efforts. It should be noted that the United University Professionals (UUP) which represents regular faculty has pledged at least moral support to GSEU's efforts, and that delivery personnel represented by the Teamsters Union probably will not cross the picket lines. Common sense, political pressure, and intense lobbying have not yet convinced the State Legislature that public higher education is a right and not a privilege. Perhaps a strike that would shut down the entire SUNY system until the Governor and the legislators wake up would bring them out of their slumber. Lesser remedies have failed, and a strike is all that's left. , — delinquency. Cultivated adolescence It is perhaps not unreasonable to ask someone in his late teens to devote a good deal of energy to the adolescent role of student (though I think most colleges and universities, including this one, demand too much adolescence of their students); but it is unreasonable to expect someone in his middle twenties to be content with an adolescent role. Giving graduate students the adult responsibilities of teaching and research without giving them recognition as adult i.e., recognizing them as members of society employees is a cheap trick. In our society adults are paid for services rendered. People who render services without being paid in return are either saints, fools, independently wealthy, or slaves. The graduate students who render service to the academic community are also the graduate students on the ,present situation that fellowship.

One is not rewarded for teaching. You might well object that as long as the money comes in it makes no difference why it’s coming in. I believe it does in fact make a great deal of difference to one’s self esteem, though discerning that difference is not easy, The present funding mechanism implicitly i asks the recipient of a fellowship to view his situation in the following way: We are honoring you with this money because we think you have the potential to, become an adult member of the academic community if you train under us for several years. Incidentally, you’ll have to teach or do some research. In this situation the student is likely to view teaching as a burden, especially if he thinks he is being asked to teach certain courses because faculty don’t want to be bothered with them. Teach he must; but studying for that future time when he will be a real academic, with a degree and a list of publications, is more important. What the graduate student may not know is that many of his professors view their situation in their present academic rank as just a preparation for their real academic life, which will begin when the next rank in the ladder, from assistant to associate to full professor, is attained. By the time a person has gotten the degree and obtained an academic, job he is so used to thinking of his present activity as being unimportant in itself, as being preparation for some future, that he often continues in that rut, even though he is now living the situation, which was, five years ago when he was a graduate student, the future goal toward which he was working. And there is no happiness in that rut. Where the student is seen as an employee who is being paid for performing teaching or research duties he implicitly views his situation this way: Not only have I done well enough to be accepted for further study, I have also done well enough to be given the responsibility of imparting some of my knowledge to others. I am now a productive member of society; I am valued for what I am doing now, not for what I may do in the future. *7 ■ I find this to be a much more dignified self-image. And it is less likely to produce a breed of intellectuals who are emotionally committed to some mythical future accomplishment instead of deriving satisfaction from their present activities (especially teaching). After all, the only lasting satisfactions afforded by intellectual activity are those obtained from transmitting one’s knowledge to others. One teaches one’s students and one teaches one’s colleagues. The two situations differ only in that one’s colleagues need less help in learning what one has to say. So I think the difference between being a student, who also l\as to teach so his fellowship can. be justified to the money-givers, and a part-time teacher who spends much of his time learning experienced from more and knowledgeable teachers, is the difference between a life centered on the future and a life centered on .the present. Adolescence is good in its time, but that time is over when one moves into the middle twenties. A union is an organization of adults whose purpose is to ensure that employers honor their obligations to employees and to ensure that employees are treated as autonomous adults rather than as wards of a company or stats, benevolently provided for because they cannot provide for themselves. If I am being paid to attend classes, then I am being supported. If 1 am paid for teaching a class, or for doing research, then I am paying my own way. 1 am then a self-supporting adult. The Graduate Student Employees Union is an attempt to show the difference between being a self-supporting adult - and an over-age adolescent. — Business Manager Arts Backpage — Bill Maraschiello Randi Schnur Renita Campus . .

Calling itself “A Reactionary Bank for Happy Colonists,” the new Banke occupies a three story Building, the tallest in Buffalo, that has completely blocked traffic on Main Street for three years now. The Banke already approached Little Red School House (LRSH) Headmaster Methuselah Katter to serve on its Board of Commissioners, and concurrently offered him a Good Deal on some land for the Amherst Schoolhouse. In its first official act, the new Banke has made a $12,000 pound Loane to troubled New York City (formerly New Amsterdam) to ease it out of financial Troubles caused by the Dutch leaving with the city’s Till. Interest on the Loane is 28V4 percent, which the Lord Mayor of New York says will be repaid out of subsidies from the Colonial Office next year.

When queried by newsmen as to the real motivation behind the move, Nessen replied heatedly that the President’s only motivation was patriotism, and added that if Jimmy Carter gets to the White House, “he can paint peanuts or anything else he wants” on the White House walls, but that while the President is in command, he will do “whatever he Goddamn pleases!” Then the press secretary left the continued on Page 37 The way things really were by Danny Zwicker Noted Historian At this very historic and reflective moment in our nation’s history, it is time to look back and examine the great, yet obscure moments in the ancestry of v our own great presidential family.

Fifth grade to go LRSH questioned on its academic integrity by Michael and Karen Teacher's Pets Fifth Grade will be Phased Out at the Buffalo Little Red School House (LRSH) because of “questionable academic integrity,” if the recent Report of His Majesty’s Ackademic Planning Committee is Allowed to Stand. Royal Committee Co-Chairman MacAlistair Tull, in a Memorandum to LRSH headmaster Mothuselah Ketter, reported that “many of the Programs of study in the Fifth grade are actually mere elaborations on Programs in the Fourth or Simplifications of the Sixth grade Programme, and thus their Ranking in the LRSH need Profile is only fair to Poor.” While Noting that the Fifth Grade programme is the only one in Buffalo, Tull said that his cannot override the poor Publishing record of the Fifth grade’s only teacher, Ludwig von Duck. Of the three books Published in Buffalo during the past year, Mr. von Duck did not Write any of them, Tull asserted. That's not Donald Mr. von Duck angrily retorted that the Ackademic Planning Report was simply a Smokescreen for attacks on Innovative education by the Tory establishment. The fifth Grade was being Attacked, said yon Duck, because it was the only level where the True History of the British Empire is studied. Furthermore, von Duck charged, “1 suppose that it’s only coincidence that they want to fire the only Duck teaching in the Schoolhouse. To assume Otherwise would be to Challenge the Unbiased Objectivity of the committee.’ A group of fifth grade Students attending a Teacher’s Conference on the Report demanded to know why there were not any Ducks Included on the Planning Committee. “Who is MacAlistair Tull anyway?”, they queried, “Who elected him? We thought we were a Self-Governing, autonomous Collective!” Bird Feeder The eighth grade Teacher, who asked to remain Anonymous, speculated that von Duck was “having his Goose cooked,” because of his unorthodox Teaching methods. Leslie Feeder added that he considered Classics Comics a perfectly valid teaching Tool, adding that great books are those that are truly Subversive and not those that get on lists of great books. Clifton Yearlong, the Committee’s other Co-chairman, defended the Report’s suggestion to phase out the month of February at the Conference today. Yearlong said that the month had been badly deficient in days ever since it was cut back to 28 a few years ago. Also, he added, the committee had received a little Information about February’s programme, and thus assumed it had little Validity. Klunk Howarde Klink, of the February Fight-Back Committee, charged that the real Reason February has fallen into Disfavor comes from the Leap Day Fiasco of this fall. In that incident, the Ratter administration forgot to ask His Majesty for Funds to pay LRSH staff for teaching on Leap Day, leaving the School House budget $225 in the Hole. It is in retribution for this embarassment that the administration wants to shut down the whole month, Klink said. Klink also insisted that February had sent Information to the Committee, only to have the committee Misplace it. At the End of the conference, the eight elementary teachers and the four High School Teachers voted “no confidence” in the Royal Committee’s report. They were promptly shipped back to England, and will stand trial there for Treason and Sedition under the Rules for the Maintenance of Royal Order.

Students of this University and faculty should join hands in saluting President Ketta’s new program “Negative Action.” Ketta initiated this innovative program after meeting with students in HAAS Lounge last Wednesday. During the verbose question and answer period, Ketta repeatedly replied that although he was sympathetic to the needs of the students, there was virtually nothing he could do, thus setting the flavor for his creative new program. “Negative Action entails the benign neglect of women and minorities in hiring situations,” claimed Ketta proudly. “Negative Action should be everything Affirmative Action isn’t, plus more,” he added. The “un”-hiring of women and minorities is not foreign to the administration’s past dealings, and would hardly be worth the space in the paper without sounding mundane and banal. However, Ketta fooled us this time when he suddenly radicalized his program by hiring 143 white, middle-class males to fill the empty positions normally occupied by Teaching and Graduate Assistants. Richard M. Nixon Isabel Peron Up the system To the Editor. In the wake of the Patty Hearst case, a number of people, especially students, have voiced their disapproval of the verdit, and the entire judical system of the United States This, I feel, is a grievous error. Our judicial system has endured for almost 200 years, through all kinds of social and international crises, and it has become stronger for all its trials (no pun intended). To claim now that it is incapable of securing justice for all our citizens is a totally irresponsible and fallacious charge, and these irrational assholes should have their heads examined.

Foob Ye Olde Historical Consultant One of America’s oldest families is regularly left of most history books despite the fact its members have played integral parts in the development of our great country throughout its history. The Bogenregens, like all long-line American clans, came oVer on the Mayflower, but many of their important deeds are often overlooked. In fact, the Bogenregens were originally from Spain. Christopher Columbus’ first mate was Sam Bogenregen, and although few people know this, it is a documented fact that Sam Bogenregen was the first European to set foot on Santo Domingo when he landed the Lumpa (Columbus’s little known fourth boat) in the New World. out Bogenregens stowaway The Bogenregens moved out of Spain and into England a few years later, htiching a ride on the Spanish Armada. Barney Bogenregen decided to move his family to America in 1620 because he figured he would be needed in the new surroundings. You see, Barney was a tailor and as he told the Pilgrims, “You’re all going to need clothes .. When the Revolutionary War came around, the Bogenregen’s were once again in the limelight. Flash Bogenregen, the great great grandson of Barney, was Paul Revere’s steed. But the Bogenregen’s real contribution to the war effort came after the fighting was over. Noah Regenbogen, Flash’s grand nephew, wrote the first American history book. Being somewhat less than sober at the time, he confused the two hilly battles in Boston, giving the American’s credit for a win at Bunker Hill that they didn’t in fact deserve. It was during the war years that the ugly side of Bogenregen’s surfaced. Mortimer Bogenregen, the family’s black sheep who was still living in England, was the lawyer/accountant who drew up the papers, for Benedict Arnold’s traitorship. Today’s descendents of the Bogenregen clan are now known as “Regenbogen.” This reversal of the name began when Stanislaus misspelled his son’s name on the birth certificate. Born in 1903, Murray Bogenregen was officially named Regenbogen, and the surname has stuck ever since. But this name change has not stopped the Regenbogen’s from contributing to America’s rich heritage. It was Sol Regenbogen who backed the building of Canarsie, one of America’s most unusual landmarks. Visitors to Canarsie marvel at the strange dialects of English spoken there. Sol was so enthusiastic about Canarsie, that he moved his whole family there. The Bogenregen secret Perhaps the most important contribution of the Regenbogens is almost always overlooked. When the signing of‘the Declaration of Independence took place in 1776, a section quilled in small print delegated an important job to the then Bogenregens. They were put in charge of counting the number of years that America has been in existence. A secret mathematical /ormula has been passed for Bogenregen to Bogenregen, and without it nobody would be able to figure out just how old America is. Rumor has it that Zeus Bogenregen lost track around the turn of the century when he forgot to “carry the one,” but his descendents Ipve refused to comment on this. Actually, without the “Regenbogen formula,” as it is known around Washington, this whole Bicentennial celebration could never take place because nobody would know when America would turn 200. Americans are forever in debt to the Regenbogens for all their past service. Mitchell Regenbogen, one of the clansmen alive today, says that he will continue in the grand tradition of past Regenbogens. Mitchell will long be remembered for his famous quote from 1973, “Give me liberty, or give me food service.” Ye Olde Spectrum Business Manager Howard Bloenig pleaded guilty Tuesday to 16 counts of third-degree grand larceny, five counts of petty larceny and 6000 counts of general pettiness. Bloenig, who will turn 24 next month, was scheduled for sentencing on May 28th by Criminal Court Judge Oliver Wendell Lorenzetti. The assorted charges carry a possible term of up to life imprisonment (which Bloenig admitted was no sacrifice), or six months in Bert Black's Political Sceince Class “Hacks in Contemporary Society." The third degree larceny charges were pressed against Bloenig in connection with what Judge Lorenzetti termed "horrendously dubious R.E.P.V' One such R.E.P., drawn on Ye Olde Spectrum funds, was reportedly made payable to Dan Greed Chevrolet, Inc., as a down payment on a 1976 Monte Carlo, equipped with overdrive. Other charges stemmed from Bloenig's misuse of Ye Olde Spectrum funds and equipment. The defendent claimed that he "didn't see anything wrong with xeroxing five dollar bills." — Ye olde quiz you gotbrains?

Ketta warned, “Many students holding very high positions in this, school are going to be affected by this. Let them see how it feels to have their asses kicked around campus for a change.” Ketta also noted that he was only undertaking this investigation for the good of the students. “Nothing personal kids,” he said. to this Student reaction disclosure was immediate. Amid several unsubstantiated reports that suitcases were lining the hallways of the second and third floors ->f Norton three deep, and that local travel agents had experienced an unprecedented surge in business, many student leaders reacted strongly to Ketta’s latest move. Shameful “I think it’s shameful,” said a spokesperson for New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG). “It’s just another example of his (Ketta’s) reactionary politics.” Upon Ye Olde installed noticing Spectrum’s the recently wall-to-wall white shag carpet and mahogany and marble rollaway bar in the NYPIRG office the spokesperson commented, “In order to investigate corporate executives properly you have to first understand the way in which they live.” One case specifically mentioned in Ketta’s announcements is the recent proposal by Schussmeister’s Ski Club to use part of their mandatory fee allocation to buy one of the Swiss Alps. The deal would include a complete ski resort, a lodge, and a small town of six thousand people. “This purchase clearly fits within the objectives of Schussmeisters,” said a club official. “And there is nothing inconsistent about the director of the club moving his office to a villa on that mountain. The mayor of that town has always lived in that villa.” Steve Schmutz declined comment because he couldn’t understand the question. Another SA elected official believed that Ketta’s actions could jeopardize the planned moving of the SA’s offices. “It’s clear that Ketta is using this tactic to divide the of said. ‘The movement students,” she undergraduate activity away from the Main Street Campus will make this place an empty shell within a few years. This has necessitated that the SA look for / a new location for its offices.” an SA search committee is scouting Carribean islands for an appropriate location. “It’s important that we have an adequate beachfront, wherever we decide to move. This is consistent with our policy to provide more daytime activities for commuter students. We’re leaning towards Antigua because of its proximity to the IRC and SASU offices in Barbados and Aruba. But the food and service in St. Tropez is so much better that it’s really a tough decision at this point.” Many observers feel that the catalyst of this investigation is Howie Bloenig, Te Olde Spectrum s Business Manager. Bloenig is best known to students by the chauffered purple and pink Cadillac Seville that escorts him around the campus. His chauffer, a former Miss April, is reported to earn more than Ketta himself, although Bloenig smiles, “Mandatory fees*isn’t the only source of her income, believe me.” Limousine Bloenig had been criticized in Ketta’s statement because of the six figure salary he receives as business manager. Asked if he had given much thought to his salary lately, Bloenig raged, “You bet I have! Look at anyone else making a salary like mine and they have an expense account. You think those chislers down at Sub-Board included that in their Spectrum allocation? Not a penny! Now out of my way - 836-8905 In an Rudest News Service unprecedented move.

GSEU encourages all campus groups to participate in and cooperate with the Coalition in mobilizing your constituency to actively fight cutbacks to education. The Coalition and SA have called for an undergraduate strike vote. GSEU encourages all undergraduates to vote yes for an on-going strike, the termination of which should occur when the Coalition’s demands are satisfactorily met. GSEU has also called for s strike vote of all TA’s and GA’s. The decision to cutback education is political in nature a matter of misconstrued priorities. Through collective mass action these priorities can be redressed. A strike is imperative at this time. Vote — yes. — Graduate Student Employees Union To the Editor. This week from Wednesday to Friday, a referendum will be held to determine if the undergraduates at this University should strike against the cutbacks affecting education. We should also join with the GSEU in its proposed strike for next week and work with it in mutual support of our similar struggles. Everyone is urged to vote and we would like to express our reasons why. This strike hasn’t been called on the spur of the moment. Rather, it is a further tool to fight the cutbacks. The anti-cutbacks movement has been active since the beginning of the fall semester. We have attempted to fight cuts in many ways, including letter writing, speaking with legislators, talking with administrators, and demonstrating both on and off campus. These efforts have unfortunately been in vain we have now been forced into action. Since the legislators, Board of Trustees, and administration are allowing education and social services to decay, we now say that we must stop business as usual. Their concept of business as usual does not agree with ours; thus, we are stopping business until education truly serves the needs and the wants of the — people. The real party line wish Mr. Fung would do some investigation on the matter before making such groundless statements. Everyone in our party has been working diligently and coherently, and nobody has ever been “forced to run” for any office. Mr. Fung, you have to produce more concrete facts in order to convince the public. Mr. Fung is well aware of the fact that rifts exist among the Chinese students. We hope that the harm caused by slanders will be realized, and the unity of the whole Chinese Student body be placed above all else. The Service Party’s motto is: “To serve our fellow students wholeheartedly.” We welcome your suggestions and concrete criticisms. ununited.” I To the Editor. I am writing in response to Mr. John Fung’s letter published in Monday’s The Spectrum. Mr. Fung charges the Service Party Candidates as being “prejudiced.” This is totally groundless. Anyone who has read our declaration knows that our party’s attitude toward the Chinese Students Association is that it should reflect the interests of all Chinese Students at the University, regardless of place of birth, political and religious beliefs. Individual preferences, of course, do not reflect the party’s line. On the question of our campaign, Mr. Fung does not have the slightest knowledge of what campaigning work we have been doing, and yet accuses us of being “unactive, unorganized, and Peter Yuen Chairman, Service Party ~ The Coalition opposes all cuts in social services which are the basic needs of -the people. If these thoughts represent your own, then we urge you to VOTE YES!! We recognize that a strong, united fighting mass movement of students, faculty and is the only thing that cart begin to fight workers the control of the banks and corporations in determining use of state money. That is, ultimately, why we, the students, should go on strike; to make education responsive to the needs of the people and for the right of all of us to control our own lives. For students, it means a boycott of all classes, for faculty, it means cancelling classes and asking their students to attend the teach-ins, picketlines, and other strike activities planned. For classified and professional employees, who can’t strike because of the N.Y. State Taylor Law, it means supproting us and attending those activities in which they may participate without penalty. ON WED. THURS. AND FR1. OF THIS WEEK, - — VOTE YES! VOTE TO STRIKE!!! Coalition To Fight the Cutbacks The executives speak The Executive Committee of the SGA met on 1976 and reviewed the budget cutbacks faced by the entire University community and March 28, particularly the graduate students. The unanimous sentiment expressed by the members of the Executive Committee was that public higher education was seriously threatened by the low priority given to it by the Carey administration. The increase in tuition and dorm expenses, the reductions in student services the cuts in TA/GA lines and the elimination of tuition waiver and other sources of financial assistance to students, was understood by the GSA executives to be clear indication that the Governor considers higher education an item of luxury to be dispensed to those who can afford it. We feel that public higher education is not a luxury but a right of the taxpayers of this State. Accordingly, in light of the GSA senate resolution of November 25, 1975, we extend our support to all sectors of SUNY that are fighting the cutbacks and struggling for quality education. against Specifically, we support the SA resolution passed on March 26, 1976 which calls for a referendum of the undergraduate student body to determine if a strike should be held. We encourage all undergraduates to participate in the referendum and all activities organized by the SA. Further, in accordance with the GSA resolution of November 1975, we support the GSEU in its legitimate demands. We efforts to secure encourage all TAs and GAs to participate in the strike vote organized by the GSEU to determine if they should go on strike. We are encouraged by the successful strikes held by GAs and TAs in Wisconsin and Michigan all of which led, to union recognition and negotiations of student demands. We believe that the actions planned by the GSEU will lead similar positive results. Wednesday, 31 March 1976 The Spectrum .

The African Graduate Student Association A little figuring To the Editor. ' It is unfortunate that tuition rates have gone up, and there is much anguish on campus. However, a central question is: What is the individual student getting in return for his/her money? Let us say you are a freshman or sophomore carrying a normal load and paying $750 per semester. If you take Geology 103, for example, it will cost about $190. In return, you get 45 hours of formal lecture instruction plus 30 hours of instruction in the laboratory. This works out to a cost to you of $2.53 per hour. This is not much more than the cost of a small box of dried apricots or five packs of cigarettes. In addition, there are the further services of the library, student union and other University facilities at your disposal as well as outside consultation with any of the professors in our department, each of whom has seven to nine years advanced formal training and, on the average, ten years teaching experience to serve you. Another angle is the fact that the average college graduate earns about $300,000 more than a high school graduate over a lifetime career. This works out to be about $9400 more you will earn over your lifetime because you took Geology 103.1 figure this to be approximately $180.80 for each rock you learn about. In pondering these statistics, it appears that the investment you are making isn’t such a big ripoff at all. Jn fact, a return of $9400 for an investment of $190 smells to me like big corporation windfall profits. To correct this injustice, each University grad should set aside, say, 10 percent of lifetime profits and donate it back to the University that made it all possible. Charles J. Cazeau Associate Professor P.S. I myself have done this, but by default you might say, because the University is paying me 10 percent less than what 1 am really worth. Page sixteen . The Spectrum Wednesday, 31 March 1976 . * , TRB. The danger of what I will call the Henry L. Mencken Complex is that the Washington reporter comes to the conclusion that the whole performance.. is put on for his personal It entertainment, and is not to be taken is an insinuating illusion. Nobody before or after Mencken could describe it so pungently, but he is gone and the show continues, and you find yourself saying, if he were only here. When President Ford the other day at the West Wilkes High School Gymnasium Wilkesboro, North Carolina, boasted about his handling of the celebrated Mayaguez affair, it needed a Mencken. When Mr. Ford’s acting campaign manager, Stuart Spencer, cited Jimmy Carter’s evangelical and faith-healing sister, Mrs. Ruthi Carter Stapleton, last week as an illustration to prove that Carter is a “fundamentalist” and then balked at trying to define “fundamentalist.” Mencken’s ghost was there rubbing his hands at the erratic 1976 presidential performance. In fact, maybe, the entire American scene requires a Mencken. Anybody can see that the system of selecting a presidential candidate with 31 primaries is crazy. But is it any more so than having one party control Congress, and another the White House? That’s crazy, too. Mencken adored it. Or take my favorite illustration, gun control. Five presidential commissions have solemnly linked handguns with America’s bigger and better crime rate. Americans are supposed to object to crime, and they constantly demand tougher penalties to stop it. Every opinion poll of modern times shows that 70 percent' or more of the public favors registration or abolition of hand guns. But does Congress react? Congress is supposed to be the creature of the public, but pass a handgun registration act in defiance of the American Rifle Association? It would rather go without celebrating Latvian independence day! Mencken is cackling somewhere in his particular paradise of beer and Bach. 1 remember that far off day in Elwood, Indiana, with Mencken, waiting for Wilkie’s acceptance speech, interviewing pompous master about Capehart of ceremonies Homer arrangements for servicing 300,000-or-so visitors in the little town on such matters, for example, as comfort stations (I think Joe Alsop was with us), and Capehart boasting that he had set lots of them, “each one a hundred-holer.” Mencken could hardly wait to get out of the room to vent his exquisite satisfaction at this addition to the American language. Mencken should have been in the Wilkesboro audience when Mr. Ford said, “1 think what I did in the case of the Mayaguez is a good example of the decisiveness that I can act with when we are faced with a problem. I could / do it again.” He could do it in Cuba, for example. He and Kissinger ached to do it in Angola. But pussyfooting meanies in Congress blocked him. Yes sir, he told the literati of Lenoir Rhyne College, Hickory, North Carolina, March 20, his proposal to spend $28 million to frustrate communism in Angola was cruelly thwarted. But for Congress, he told them, “Communism, whether it is the Soviet Union or Cuba, wouldn’t be there today. That is unforgivable but that is the fact,” he told his gaping audience. Now that the Soviet Union “controls that very rich country,” he added, “I think the American public wishes we had made that investment.” The Mayaguez affair for Americans in May a year ago was like balm to a smarting wound; we , had lost Vietnam and were lost on humiliation and then decisive Mr. Ford bombed the hell out of Cambodia’s Tang Island. He sank three Cambodian gunboats, struck the Sihanoukville oil depot (proved unused), and restored America’s self-respect. “There are limits beyond which the United States cannot be pushed,” said a proud Henry Kissinger. Thirty-four minutes after the U.S. destroyer Wilson had reported that the American crew was all rescued the oil depot was struck over the protest of neighboring Thailand. We used our base there to launch the attack on Cambodia and later apologized after Bangkok recalled its ambassador. (The Thai students remember it and are demanding that our troops leave now.) We rescued the 39 crewmen 1 and lost only 38 or so servicemen in doing it. And, as Mencken would sardonically observe, witlv, A glitter from his china-blue eyes, it restored Mr. Ford to his rightful role as national leader; in early May only 40 percent approved the way he was handling his office and 43 percent disapproved; after Mayaguez came the second 11 points sharpest jump upward ever recorded to 51 percent! (The sharpest gain, you will be glad to know, was the 17-point jump Nixon got in January, 1973 after achieving Vietnam — “peace.” Can anybody doubt that a little chastisement of Cuba right now would send Mr. Ford’s stock similarly soaring? There is a hateful little nation just asking to be kicked, and there is Mr. Ford in the high school gym proclaiming his decisiveness. It would make us all a little taller. The other item Mencken would have enjoyed recently is this preliminary confrontation of Mr. Ford’s campaign manager, the coihpetent and professional Stuart Spencer, with the Jimmy Carter problem. The problem is such in Washington today that you can’t so much as say “Jimmy” in a cocktail party but what all other conversation stops and guests come bounding over to participate. At a breakfast meeting with reporters last week campaign manager Spencer raised the baffling subject himself. It is here that journalists face the dangerous Mencken Syndrome; it is so much fun watching -conventional politicians sweating over the soft-voiced, Twice-Born Carter, that we are apt to lose our objectivity a little and give the curious new kid a boost up just for the hell of it. Carter remarked in an interview here that he planned in his first week in office to pardon all the draft defectors: “I don’t intend to criticize the young people who left the country,” he said, “I’d just issue a blanket pardon without comment.” The country is worried about its future and its soul, and here is a Baptist from Georgia who wins elections and stops George Wallace, and says he won’t lie, and carries black wards and white wards in southern states, and speaks without the slightest embarrassment about his relationship with Jesus. Manager Spencer noted the article about Carter’s chic, handsome sister, the mother of four and mysticr who says she will put her own work aside, “until Jimmy gets in the White House.” There is a set of standards here, and a vocabulary, and a way of looking at things, that no other presidential candidate in modern times, I think, has offered. Manager Spericer advanced the word “Fundamentalist,” and then hastily retreated from it; religion, he said, hasn’t been mixed up in a campaign since Kennedy broke through the barrier in 1960. And what is a Fundamentalist, and is Garter one? The inquiring reporter is as uncertain as anybody. The most reassuring thing about Jimmy, perhaps, is his 78-year old ex-Peace Corps mother, “Miss Lillian,” who observed, “I told him to quit this stuff about never telling a lie, and being a Christian, and how he loves his wife more than the day he met her.” Can we scoff at this? Mencken, where are you? �Indications show Humphrey readying for presidential bid Senator Hubert H. Humphrey, who has figured in every Presidential election since 1960, appears to be warming up for the Democratic nomination this summer. The Minnesota legislator has said he is not a candidate, but recent activities indicate that Humphrey is getting ready to play a more active role in the campaign. The first hint that Humphrey was ready to join the fray came several weeks ago, when uncommitted slates of delegates announced that they were pledging themselves to Humphrey in the April 6 primary. All four of the Western New York “organization” slates have now shifted to Humphrey, and it is widely believed that these moves reflect the wishes of Democratic Chairman Joseph Crangle, a long-time Humphrey supporter. Democratic party regulars and volunteers distributed leaflets over the past weekend, urging Democratic voters to cast -their ballots for Humphrey, and identifying the delegates whose names will appear' on the ballot in each Congressional district. Nolo contendere Humphrey, while maintaining that he is not a contender for the nomination, has stated that, if the The women’s varsity team will begin spring practice tomorrow, April I, from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m. on the Rotary Courts. Any women interested in playing competitive tennis are invited to attend the Tuesdays practice. Future practices will be held on and Thursdays, in case of inclement weather, practice will be moved to the Ketterpillar (Bubble). Betty For additional information contact Coach Dimmick, Room 209 Clark Hall. convention became deadlocked, and the party turned to him, “I would run, and 1 would win.” The chances of a deadlocked convention becomes greater as more candidates enter the field, especially “favorite son” candidates such as Jerry Brown of California. Brown is expected to take many of California’s 280 delegates, which will make it increasingly difficult for any candidate to attain a majority on an early ballot. The Humphrey presence hampered the Buffalo appearances of Senator Henry Jackson over the weekend. Jackson was trying to attack Jimmy Carter’s Stances, but the local press bombarded him with questions about Humphrey. In addition, attention has been centered upon a visit Humphrey will be making to Canisius College this Thursday, only five days before the New York primary. Humphrey’s office points out that the senator was invited by Canisius, and was not responsible for the timing of the event. Recent investigations by the nation’s leading pollsters have shown that Humphrey has a broad base of support among the voters, and simulated match-ups against President Ford have shown that a Humphrey-led ticket would probably do as well as any other ticket the Democrats put together. New playoffformat for ECA C In an effort to gain increased representation in the NCAA baseball championships, the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC) has set up a system of post-season tournaments so that “independent” teams can advance to the NCAA playoffs. Buffalo will be a member of the new set-up’s District II, which encompasses schools from New York through Maryland. Canisius and Niagara are also in District II. Last year, explained Buffalo’s baseball coach Bill Monkarsh, the NCAA selection committee passed over the Eastern schools when considering invitations to the chamionship tournament. So, the Eastern baseball leaders copied basketball’s successful format, which separates the ECAC into serveral regions, and the playoff winner in each region advances to the NCAA tournament. A five man selection committee, on which Women’s tennis wifi determine the Monkarsh is an playoffs, two four-team in District II. participants in not yet and for the have playoffs The dates sites determined. been The new playoff format will give an added incentive to the Buffalo players. According to Monkarsh, “It will help us because it will get another Eastern team in. We had no chance at all last year.” he said. Another aim of the new set-up is to increase interest in ECAC baseball. "We are hopeful that it will generate the same type of enthusiasm for baseball that has developed in basketball." said ECAC Commissioner Robert M. Whitelaw. “It should be a great thing for the East if that happens, and we think it will.” Baseball, including a weekly ECAC All-Star team and a weekly compilation of the statistical leaders in both districts. alterna'te, ACROSS Ancient music halls Gourd Greek city-state Moscow tonsorial artist, perhaps Small donkey Lady-killer, literally Magic akin to voodoo More of the same: Abbr.

Carter said it is still too early to spell out the details but that he is "committed on his word of honor” to do so after he is elected. primary. Some media analysts, while Opponents of Carter claim he is running a popularity campaign, aware that Carter might say more smiling hi5 wa Y into the hearts of after the election, are impressed Americana without specifying with his political shrewdness and ’ /, • \ , - NYS not crucial During the press conference. Carter spoke at length about the politics of the upcoming primary. Senator Henry “Scoop” Jackson predicts a landslide victory bn April 6, but Carter believes that the momentum of his success noted, however, that he would not consider the New York primary crucial to his campaign and he believes he has enough support to withstand a defeat. Although. Carter said he has delegates qualified in all three election districts in Erie County, he acknowledged that there is a might carry him to victory. He Resolution passed SA rejects planning report The Student Association (SA) Senate has passed a resolution objecting to the interim report of President’s Committee on Academic Planning (PCAP) “in its methodology and substance.” The Senate’s resolution charged that the PCAP utilized and dated “inadequate and highly information questionable criteria” in its report. The resolution urged the SA Executive Committee, SA Faculty Senate Senate and “vigorously oppose” the PCAP report. The PCAP, appointed in September, 1975 by President Robert Ketter, is co-chaired by Graduate and Professional Dean McAllister Hull and History Department Chairman Clifton IC. Yearly. There are three students among the 16 members. The report called for the closing of Tolstoy College (College F), Social Sciences College,, the Department of Biophysical Sciences, the Department of Social, Historical and PhiiosopMcal Foundations of Education, and the Black Studies Department. Additionally, the report recommends the elimination of the Social Science Research the Center for Institute, International Conflict Studies and the Center for Educational Research. It also asked that the School of Information and Library Science be scaled down. The Committee also suggested consolidations or mergers of several other departments and programs. In some cases it suggested programs be transferred to other departments or faculties. Increases iir one form or another were proposed for Civil Electrical Engineering, Engineering, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Biochemistry, Pharmacy, Medical Technology, Physical Therapy, Counselor Education, the School of Management, the Law School and related programs, Psychology, the Center for Study of Human Groups, the Department of Art ancf Art History, and the History Department. Most public institutions of higher learning do not have academic plans, mainly because state their source of income are inconsistent in governments funding education from year to year. Ketter has been trying to get for this an academic plan University almost since the beginning of his tenure as president. In 1971, Ketter asked - - the Faculty Senate to produce an academic plan, watted a year, and none. The next year, got then-Aeademic Affairs Vice President Bernard Gelbaum, wrote his own academic plan for the wjth University. It met widespread criticism, mainly for what its critics saw as a bias against the Humanities. Several faculty members countered with one of their own, but it, too, was unacceptable. So Ketter is now closer to having ah academic plan than at any previous time. SA Director of Academic Affairs Andrew Lalonde charged that the report was done on short notice, and that the amount of time allotted for the Committee’s work was not enough to render an accurate assessment of the programs being evaluated. There was only “token student representation,” said Lalonde. “No matter what is said about this report, it will be used this summer when funds are appropriated.” He also charged that the departments recommended for increases were “fundamental” departments, having positive records of graduate employment. This will set up a “technical school” environment, Lalonde fears, causing a “mass production line” in education. The University Andy Lalonde will lose both the innovation and personality it now possesses, he added. While the report calls for the maintanance of most Colleges, it will restrict their right to give academic credit for their educational programs, Lalonde charged, adding that the more “radical” the educational programs were less popular with the PCAP. Lalonde was pleased that the Faculty was allowed to evaluate itself, and. suggested that the administration evaluate its own efficiency. He believes an administration evaluation of its own efficiency, determining where cuts could-be made, would serve to better disperse the University’s limited funding. area which observers feel will be to Senator. Hubert pledged Carter does not Humphrey. believe that Humphrey “is a factor at all in New York” or that he will emerge with a nomination from a deadlocked convention. Criticizing party bosses who put articitycigl obstacles in the way of candidates they don’t support, Cuter said he wants to see the election process remain in the hands of the people, and out of the mechanism of the New York State Democratic party. He cited former State Democratic Chairman Joseph Crangle, who remains active in Buffalo politics, as one such boss. ‘Joint during’ Carter opposes direct federal aid to New York City, but believes he has a plan that is acceptable to NYC officials. “I don’t intend to let the federal government come between the state and the city,” he said. Rather he wants to work out a “joint sharing of problems” and he suggested guaranteeing the integrity of New York State bonds. Asked by The Spectrum whether he supports Senator James Buckley’s legislation that would remove students from the food stamp roles. Carter said he intends to change the present welfare system so that there is no longer a need for a separate food Local stamp program. governments should not pay any portion of welfare costs, he said, and there should be a nationwide comprehensive commitment to urban problems. Finally, Carter would like to see the level of unemployment hover around the 3-4& percent mark, depending on the acceptable level of inflation in the country. ' . �IRC voting results ' The results of the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) election were released Friday with Howie Cohen emerging as the presidential victor. Cohen received a total of 443 votes, almost twice as many as hfc opponents, Stuart Elson and Eric Gould, combined. Running unopposed for Executive Vice, President of IRCB, Vice President for Activities Planning and Treasurer were Michael Sadowsky, Ellen Schwartz and Hal Zwick, respectively. Only 856 of over 4100 dorm students voted. University, communi gap bridged by CAC The Community Action Corps (CAC) might be the only special interest group on campus whose primary interest is not itself. Consisting of 2,000 members, this student organization provides endless services to the University and,Buffalo community. Many people feel, in fact, that the organization his bridged a wide gap between the University and the Buffalo community, significantly deepened during the student demonstrations in the early part of the decade. “It has certainly improved relations,” claimed CAC First Assistant Director Gary Nadler. “As we continue to expand-into the community, the community develops more of an interest in and need for the organization. A positive relationship has continued to grow since its formation ten years ago Nadler said that CAC has also helped the community gain a better understanding of the community, in Deu of the recent student struggle against the SUNY cutbacks. “With all of the trouble that has recently been -occurring on campus, CAC has prevented many of the people in the community from becoming alienated from the University, he said. ” Innovative programs The organization is divided up into several sub-divisions, each led by the area coordinator; These'various areas include; Health Care, Education, Drug and Youth Counseling, Day Care, Recreation, Social Action, Senior Citizens Services, and Legal and Welfare Rights. Each area contains a few programs that distinguish different aspects of the field, thus enabling a volunteer to approach that field in a particular manner that he or she feels more comfortable in. This past year, CAC has expanded its program to deal with current problems, not previously attacked by the group. These include; Environmental Action, Community Housing Investigation Program, Food Stamp Outreach, Buffalo Women Against Rape, more innovative education and health care programs, and a new creative writing program conducted for senior citizens. Each program is geared to help those involved help themselves, dispelling the myth of the “parasite.” Everyone must participate •'clients” and volunteers. The creative writing project, led by Alison \ Krohn, illustrates this situation. - Volunteers needed “The creative writing program is an attempt to bring out the feelings and thoughts of senior citizens through poetry, prose or any creative writing,” Krohn explained. “Volunteers are needed to ‘teach’ or guide old people in the art of writing and self-discovery, and the discovery of each other.” CAC is now running into a few difficulties dealing with filling staff positions for next year. Nadler stated that in recent years fewer volunteers have been able to fill positions, “while at the same time, CAC is growing more complex.” He said that this might “possibly be due to student apathy.” “Students don’t realize that because this is.a student organization, new volunteers have to come in all the time, taking officer and coordinator positions. They receive on-the-job training, which is the most effective of all,” Nadler said. Presently, available CA£ positions include; Director, First Assistant Director and the various coordinators. “The new students add all the life,” he said. PROBLEM PREGNANCY?

These discussions should help, prepare students for an undergraduate referendum on whether or not to join a proposed state-wide student strike. A meeting was held over the weekend in Binghamton with student representatives from many SUNY campuses to set a date for the strike to dramatize student opposition to the cutbacks. In addition to the forums listed in the Student Association advertisement, the Coaltion to Fight Cutbacks is publicizing three additional'events. Today, at 2 p.m., a mass meeting will be held in Norton Hall from 2-4 p.m. and another meeting in Porter Cafeteria, on the Amherst Campus, to discuss recent student protest at SUNY campuses, to report on the meeting in Binghamton and to announce additional activities. Wednesday, March 31, the Coalition wfll sponsor a rally in Norton Hall at 1 p.m. to explain the importance of building a successful strike in order to reverse the cutbacks and score new gains. That evening, at 8 p.m., the Coalition has endorsed the talk by Victor Perlo, on the Economic Crisis and Education Cuts, which is sponsored by Social Sciences College. On Thursday, April 1, from 10 a.m.—noon, in Norton Hall, the Coalition will coordinate .a series of workshops where traditional academic units and programs, the Colleges, minority groups and service organizations can meet to discuss their special problems in light of the budget cutbacks.

Should Graduate Assistants (GA’s) and Teaching Assistants (TA’s) vote to strike, all graduate student teaching, research and class attendance by GA’s and TA’s could halt. An undergraduate referendum will be held this week on whether to strike in sympathy with GSEU. In the event of a GSEU strike, members will set up picket lines on campus and request that professors, students, staff and delivery personnel not cross them. GSEU representatives have already talked to officials of the Teamsters Union, which represents many truck drivers, to ensure that union members would honor the picket lines. The OSEU strike vote is a reaction to threats that financial aid fdr graduate students will be cut off in Albany, and President Robert Ketter’s insistance that only the State Legislature grant the GSEU’s demands. Five demands The five GSEU demands Ketter has said only the state could fulfill are a guaranteed TA/GA salary of $4000 a year plus a tuition waiver; restoration of the 165 GA/TA lines cut since 1974-75; guarantee funding throughout a graduate student’s degree program; insurance coverage against employment-related accident and liability; adherence to Affirmative Action guidelines in hiring of TA’s and GA’s. GSEU officials said ballots will be distributed today to all state-funded GA’s and TA’s by the union steward in departments that have them, and by mail in all others. Completed ballots (which are secret) will be collected by the steward or else dropped off in collection boxes located at Baldy Hall, Ellicott, Ridge Lea and at the Main Street Campus. The vote will be counted on Friday, with a “mass union meeting” set for Friday night to discuss the results and decide a course of action. The GSEU has mailed letters seeking support for their organizing efforts to all state legislators, all Common Council members, some local political leaders, labor unions and community groups. The letter introduces GSEU, tells about their efforts to be recognized by the Public Employees Relations Board (PERB), explains the five demands, and asks the organization or individual to write a letter to Ketter and to GSEU expressing their support for the union. —Vazquez Student Senate Senate passes resolution for referendum on student strike by Jerry Rosoff Monday and Tuesday, March 29 and 30, and will be co-organized by SA and the Coalition, to inform the student body of the entire budgetary situation. Spectrum Staff Writer The Student Senate voted Thursday to hold a referendum to determine whether this University will join other State University (SUNY) campuses in a strike to protest budget custs and fee increases. The vote is scheduled for March 31'. The resolution calling for the referendum and informational teach-ins was proposed by SA President Steve Schwartz. The March 31 date and a pledge of the Senate’s support for a possible strike and the Coalition to Fight The Cutbacks’ demands were contained in a separate proposal, introduced by Acting Director of Public Information, Bill Finkelstein, sponsored by the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks. Workshops set The proposed workshops will concern the SUNY budget, student services and “Parcel B.” An open forum with SUNY Board of Trustees and local legislators and a voter registration drive are planned. The dismissal of charges against Stephen Kline (arrested at Hayes Hall March 19) was also called for , in Schwartz’s proposal. Schwartz’s resolution also called for the SA President to “write a letter to the Board of Trustees asking them to rescind their decision on tuition and dormitory fee raises and instead hold open hearings on these issues and on all future issues before the Trustees.” A major cause of debate was the section of Schwartz’s resolution instructing the President to write a letter to “Governor Carey and the SUNY Board of Trustees suggesting that instead of raising ‘taxes’ on students [tuition the State look into raising luxury taxes [liquor, cigarette excise taxes).” Educational efforts The biggest complaint about this portion of the proposal was that students would loose public support by proposing any increase in taxes. A change was finally agreed upon, instructing Schwartz to request Carey to secure funds from the supplemental budget and any other means possible. The Senate decided that teach-ins will be held What kind of strike Should the student body vote to strike, a decision will also have to be made on whether it will be a one-day strike followed by lobbying, or an on-going strike lasting until the demands are met. Finkelstein voted against his own resolution because he did not feel it was physically possible for SA to prepare the teach-ins and referendum by March 31. The Senate also pledged their support to the demands of the Graduate Student EmployeerUnion (GSEU). Should the GSEU decide to strike, they will have to seek SA’s support again, however. Housing In other business, the Senate agreed to settle their lawsuit to change the present Housing contract out of court. According to SA lawyer Richard Lippes, “We have gotten everything we could expect to get without going to court.” The University agreed to do away with the “collective guilt” provision which held an entire group of resident students responsible for any damage to a common facility. Only individuals will be held responsible now and they will be given two weeks to pay for the damages. The student will also have the right to appeal Housing’s decision. Maintenance and Security must now provide notice before entering a student’s room. This does not include emergency situations. A student will now also be able to sue the University for damages to his property, impossible under the conditions set oy the present contract. A move to support an emergency ambulance service funded by Sub Board I, Inc. with mandatory student fees was tabled until a further study can be made concerning the actual cost of the entire operation. The Senate also voted not to abolish the Financial Assembly and to incorporate all its powers into the Student Senate. UNDER THE AUSCPCES OF THE BUTLER CHAIR, THE DEPT.

Communist party speaker Spectrum Staff Writer Stating that the acceptance of the IQ theories developed by Jensen, Herrnstein and Eyesenck could have broad practical implications for the future of education, Lawler noted that IQ proponents have openly admitted their findings are designed to explain why social inequalities exist among people and why some children perform better in school than others. Lawler pointed out that Jensen, in his major article, “How Much Can We Boost IQ and Lawler noted that the method employed in IQ testing is to search for test items that will differentiate people. Test items that do not differentiate people are bad test items. Also, Lawler said, the assumption is that some people, have innately superior intelligence and that a normal curve accurately describes the IQ variations between general populations. Noting that this conception of intelligence failed to take into account the general Scholastic Achievement,” development of intelligence as a suggested that efforts to improve result of social and scientific the IQ’s of underprivileged progress as well as the children by the government development of each individual’s program Operation Headstart had knowledge and abilities, Lawler failed because it was based on the stated that, “IQ scores take on a that premise school changeless, a historical character.” poor performances by children are due In fact, one would have to to their environment. increase his knowledge and abilities just to maintain an Syllogism average IQ, according to Lawler. According to Lawler, Jensen that intelligence suggests is inherited and basically fixed, and that environmental factors such as educational programs can do very little to expand intelligence. Lawler also cited Herrnstein’s claim that the main significance of intelligence testing is its ability to explain social inequalities. Lawler referred to Herrnstein’s Atlantic Monthly article in which the author says of IQ testing: the main significance of intelligence testing is what it says about a society built around human inequalities. The message is so clear that it can be made in the form of a syllogism: “ ... If differences in mental abilities are interited, and 1. 2. If success requires those abilities, and 3. If earnings and prestige depend on success Then social standing 4. (which reflects earnings and prestige) will be based to some extent on inherited differences among people.” Difficulties Lawler did not deny that certain IQ tests could produce results that established different abilities among people to do well on IQ tests. He objected to the claim that the ability to do well on IQ tests is an indication of a person’s general intellectual that capacity. Pointing out or intellectual intelligence capacity was to a great extent dependent not on genes but on the economic and scientific development of a society, Lawler claimed that the “best ‘brains’" of the middle I.

This time, however, there is an innocent third party involved. Festival East Productions. This latest battle centers over who is to get the use of the Aud on Tuesday, April 6. The Braves have a game scheduled 1 for that night against the New York Knickerbockers, the first game of a Tuesday-Thursday home-and-home series 'which could be crucial to the Braves' chances of making the playoffs. Waiting in the wings for the outcome of all this is Festival East Productions, which has rented the Auditorium for the Wednesday night in question for a J. Geils Band/Peter Frampton concert. A call to their ticket office on Friday revealed that they have not been approached by the Sabres about the possibility that their show might be cancelled. A subsequent call to the executive offices of the Sabres confirmed that the Sabres have made no move toward Festival East. Paul Wieland, head of public relations for the Sabres, told The Spectrum that the Sabres do have first rights, under their contract with the city as prime tenant in the Auditorium, to any date, but that they did not want to have to “bump” the concert if they could avoid The Sabres expect to be in a first round NHL it. “They never bother us, and I hope we never playoff at that time, and they want to play on that Tuesday, in the event that they happen to be playing have to bother them,” Wieland said, adding that a West Coast team. If this is the case, and the series Festival East uses the Aud on many occasions, and goes the distance, the Sabres would have to make that they and the Sabres have never had any conflict. The situation is one that should not have come two trips to and from the coast in several days, and would be worn out by the start of the second round, about, but now that it has, it is being agitated by the which the NHL insists will begin by Sunday, April arrogant attitude of Imlach.

At �Gay profs still being fired (CPS) A drama professor at the University of Delaware recently lost his job, even though his record was excellent and he was popular with students. But Richard Aumilleir had a "problem” in the eyes of the authorities: Not only was he gay, he was an outspoken gay who urged gay students to stop hiding and “come out of the closet.” Aumiller’s firing, the result of the fact that the University’s president did not want to “read about the bedroom activities” of a faculty member, is only one example of what can happen to professors who admit they are homosexual. Gay profs have been fired simply for coming out, banned from speaking to campus groups, harassed in a myriad of ways. In many cases, they are not allowed to appeal decisions made against them. Gay academicians are still controversial enough that even teacher unions are leery of supporting them too enthusiastically. Then there are those gay teachers who are not fired because they are not allowed to teach to begin with. By no means are all gay professors discriminated against. But the threat is great enough that most gay professors are still in the closet. The stigma can be so damaging that even many tenured gay professors are unwilling to come out. A gay professor at Hunter College in New York estimated that one-fourth of the faculty' chairing departments are A gay professor who conducted a survey of the nation’s English professors found that over 20 percent were hidden bisexuals or homosexuals. — Asbentee primary ballots was challenging the stereotype.

Birth control pills: possible dangeraired Dr. Gerald Murphy of Roswell Park Memorial Institute warns women who use birth control pills they are running a greater risk of developing liver tumors than women who do not. Murphy issued a statement Wednesday that doctors at Roswell have noticed in the past few years “a small but increasing number of women with tumors of the liver” whose medical histories “revealed a common characteristic: the use of oral contraceptives.” Murphy said that, although he does not wish to frighten anyone unduly, “it is our responsibility to alert the public on possible adverse resulting from prolonged use of certain oral contraceptives.” He reported that test results so far have shown that not all types of birth control pills are equally risky when it comes to liver tumors. Those containing steroids or mestranol were most frequently associated with the tumor victims, he said. Early detection He added that Roswell’s recent studies have shown a danger of both cancerous and benign liver tumors in the pill users, and cancer of the tumor is one of the most difficult to remove from the body. Murphy did say that benign tumors evolve into cancerous growths if untreated, or they may remain benign and grow, eventually causing massive hemorrhaging or a fatal rupture of theliver. Murphy said the most common symptom reported by women who developed the tumot was “a sudden onset of pain in the upper right abdomen." To aid in early detection of such tumors, he recommended that all pull users request a liver palpatation in their annual physical checkups. He also urged these women to promptly report to their physician “any pain in the upper right quadrant of their abdomen as well as any discernable enlargement in that area.” S.A.

Page five �Commentary U.S. role in Rhodesia unwise by Mike McGuire Campus Editor Henry Kissinger’s pursuit of- detente with Communist nations has been undergoing a slowing lately, especially since the victory of the Marxist MPLA in the former Portugese colony of Angola, and the grand American tradition of “gunboat diplomacy” may yet reassert itself. press Kissinger told a conference this Tuesday that an invasion of Cuba could not be ruled out should Cuban troops aid Black nationalists opposing the supremacist regime white in Rhodesia (Zimbabwe). The Secretary of State’s position ignores the offical State, Department position" on that nation. The U.S. does not maintain relations with Rhodesia, and participates in a U.N.-imposed on all Rhodesian embargo products (an exception is made by the U.S. for chromium). Thus, if Kissinger is to be taken seriously, he is suggesting that the U.S. invade a nation one twentieth of our size if Cuba helps topple a regime we officially oppose. Kissinger’s answer to this contradiction is to insist on a negotiated end to all-white rule in Rhodesia, an approach that has consistently failed during the eleven years since that regime was founded. Recently, Rhodesian Prime Minister Ian Smith opposed as “too extreme” a British proposal for majority rule within two years. He suggested “ten to fifteen” years. Rhodesia, a former British colony located in southeast Africa, declared its independence from England on November 11, 1965. At that time. Smith announced that the nation's white minority (280,000 out of a total population of six million) would rule indefinitely. For this reason, Britain refused to recognize the new nation (as it had most of its former colonies), and the U.S. followed suit. Britain soon declared an against economic embargo Rhodesia, meaning that neither the British government nor British J firms could trade with the nation in any way. In May 1968, the embargo was adopted officially by the United Nations, with U.S. support. Prime targets of the embargo yrere Rhodesian chromium is vital to U.S. industries and, is not readily available from other nations. A number of other industrial nations have gotten along quite well without Rhodesian chrome, albeit with less shiny cars. At times, U.S. longshoremen have refused to unload shipments of Rhodesian chrome. considerably weakened in recent months by the MPLA victory in Angola, with the involvement of Cuban troops frontier with and Russian supplies, and more importantly by Portugal granting independence to Mozambique. The new regime in Mozambique has rtow closed the Rhodesia also, depriving them of access -to its railroad and its ports. While the Smith regime would normally turn to South Africa, its neighbor, for help, that nation is reluctant to jeopardize its already poor relations with Black Africa. While South Africa could ignore Black Africa’s dislike in past years, the former Portugese colonies that insulated it from the rest of the continent are now suddenly independent and ruled by Black leftists. There is also a growing possibility that Mozambique may formally join the fight against Rhodesia, a fight conducted by guerillas operating out of Mozambique for the past several years. Rhodesia’s 430G-man Blacks screwed Civil rights taken for granted by most Americans do not apply to Black Rhodesians. They do not have the right to vote; the right to travel is rigidly restricted; there is little protection in the way of labor laws; and while they have a theoretical right to education, they have to pay substantial sums chromiuih'exports (a major scctot of money for even elementary of the economy there) and its education, and that education is dependence on foreign oil. abysmal in quality.

Kenya’s Foreign Minister, in announcing the policy change, said that the continuance of white rule there is a far greater danger to Africa than any fear of Soviet expansion. It is this attitude among African nations that is the real Kissinger’s target of new belligerency toward Cuba (he isn’t being nearly so nasty to the Soviet Union, which was also involved in Angola, because of their much larger size and strength). The U.S. government, after decades of or Tuesday supporting European imperialists in the Third World, has found itself unwilling to back liberation movements even as their impending victories become clear, and this is causing severe problems in Washington. Kissinger: Shut up! The State Department, being mostly made up of good liberals, would probably like to back progressive capitalist regimes in Africa. In real life, however, the is between backing reactionaries (usually white) and backing socialists a choice the U.S. government pretends to choice — ignore. If the U.S. government backed liberation movements in the Third World instead of aiding their enemies, perhaps it might have some moral standing to attack Cuba and the Soviet Union for interfering militarily in Africa. Given the U.S. government’s propensity for backing the wrong people in the Third World, however, Dr. Kissinger should pull in his horns while he still has some credibility left. ������������������������ *OKH! -WE REALIZE WE MADE A MISTAKE* * * WE'RE NOW SELLING * * * * "THE BOOK" for * * $2.00 Buy one at any of the 3 IRC stores.

Animal products ar$ used to manufacture clothing, perfume, cosmetics, shampoo, and even toothpaste. Many species of animals, especially the higher mammals, arc sentient beings who suffer enormously by the pain insensitive human beings inflict upon them. In a society that -often condones, justifies, or takes for granted needless slaughter of living things, many Americans simply do not think about the problems caused by the mistreatment of animals, problems that affect the ecological balance and create unnecessary misery for the animals as well. War on wildlife Plutarch said, “sport should be jo’yful /?a//y and between playmates who are merry on both sides.” Yet while hunters and environmentalists debate the pros and cons of wildlife management, one thing remains clear that hunting has been the sole reason for the extinction or near extinction of hundreds of animal species. In his book Mankind: Our Incredible War on Wildlife, Geveland .Amory states: In the case of literally dozens and dozens of animal species, hunting has been not just “a major factor" in the endangerment but the only major factor... These species include such strange “game” as the giant armadillo, the Indochinese bar gibbon, and the glacier bear the latter’s “reasons for decline being listed in the U.S. Endangered Species Act as “over-hunting as a curio.” The list also include such prize “trophies" as the grizzly bear, the Bali tiger, the rhino, the snow leopard, aitd the giant otter. Hunting as the only major factor is also credited with the endangerment of a wide variety of stag, deer, silcas, yaks, gazelles, antelopes, ibexes, etc. As for animals for which hunting is listed as not “the only major factor, hut a major factor virtually all the Endangered Species are so includeil.

Thus, wildlife management consists of ensuring that there will be a surplus ,of animals to shot, kill or “harvest." When a surplus of animals is evident, hunters argue that they help trim the herds and prevent what would otherwise be a mass starvation of a particular species of animals. They ignore alternatives such as the relocation of females to areas which are underpopulated. They also ignore that many animals are wounded during hunting season. Adding the number of wounded animals to the number who might starve then equals double the misery! It has been estimated that five to ten deer are crippled for every one killed with a bow and arrow. The Department of the Interior estimates that each year 2'A million ducks are also in the U.S. A Michigan crippled Department of Conservation count reportedly found 30,000 out of 74,000 deer “had died slowly from hunting wounds.” In addition to hunters who kill for food, the trophy hunters who seek out the healthiest, biggest animals to display on their mantel pieces. for jobs A series of career seminars have been set up for the next few weeks by the University Placement Office.

The Spectrum Page seven . �i(n6 Editorial Undergraduate and graduate students alike will have the opportunity to vote this week on whether to participate in a SUNY-wide strike to protest budgetary cutbacks and fee increases. In light of these rederenda, the Student Association and the Coalition to Fight Cutbacks have jointly organized a series of teach-ins to inform interested persons on the nature of the cuts and their ramifications, on public supported higher education. The fight to restore money so desperately needed to the SUNY budget at this stage is by no means a fruitless one, even though the legislature has already approved the state budget for the 1976—77 fiscal year. Hope still lies in either the supplemental budget or a special budgetary sessions of the legislature as long as officials in Albany can be made to see the crisis situation in which they have left the SUNY system. Naturally, any strike to oppose government-inflicted retrenchment ins public higher education would have the greated impact if students at every SUNY campus, with the support of their respective faculty, staff and administration, joined together in a united, well, thought-out effort. Yet, it would be a waste of time for students to accept blindly such a strike if they are ignorant of the facts at hand. We therefore ask members of the University community to take advantage of the budget forums that will take place this week and learn exactly what the state-wide ruckus is all about. Thpn, hopefully, students will realize the importance of voting yes to the proposed student strike. Only those who educate themselves about the problem can hope to save their education. Cmon people now Since its inception eleven years ago, the Community Action Corps (CAC) has let some fresh air into the lives of thousands of young people in need. Once again, it is looking for the indispensible element upon which its effectiveness rests volunteers. CAC provides a constructive and creative outlet for students who feel that classroom training alone is confining and want to work for social causes. Over the years, it has expanded to include more than 50 programs that fall under such headings as Health Care, Education, Drug and Youth Counseling, Senior Citizen Services, Legal and Welfare Rights, and others. The Human Sexuality Center, NYPIRG, Family Planning, Sunshine House, and the Self-Help Clinic are just a few of the organizations that were launched by CAC. In addition, CAC continues to undertake new projects every year. Environmental action, Foodstamp Outreach, and Buffalo Women Against Rape are just a few of the newer programs that were established to meet a growing need. Eleven years have seen great strides in CAC's scope and effectiveness. With so many projects, there is surely enough variety to suit every kind of interest. CAC is an opportunity for those who sit around and bitch about how bad things are to do something about it. CAC needs volunteers badly, and is appealing to student to get involved.

CSA is an association for the Chinese students, that is all types, from Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and those born here, which means that the range of interest is quite wide. However, I have discovered that the candidates in the Service Party are prejudiced and going to ignore this fact. I overheard that one of the candidates in this party believed Chinese to be those of Mainland China and emphasis should be made on the importance of this into the community. But what about us, the people from Taiwan or even those American born Chinese? If one candidate feels this way. Pm sure the whole party feels this way loo. Already there is a rift between the Chinese students, Cantonese and Mandarin. If they „ persist in this attitude, they are asking for mote dissension and perhaps cause a separate club for the Taiwan people. Another factor I believe is important is that the party hasn’t campaigned much at all. It, seems one person is doing all the wbrk and the rest of the party is just pulling off the votes through their popularity. What kind of an organization is this? Is unactive, this an indication of the future unorganized, ununited? A couple of the candidates are not humble. Although I do not know them personally, the impression 1 got when I conversed with them is that they think they know a lot and can do it all. I detected a little pushiness when I found that one of the candidates did nof want to run for the party but was forced to. This is not good or healthy for CSA. I am afraid that if this party gets elected, unless it changes its attitudes, it will jeopardize the Chinese Student Association and kill it in the future. — John I'mix �Tenure reconsideration Editor’s note: The following letter, dated March 19, 1976, was sent to President Robert Ketter. Dr. Ketter. We strongly disagree with the. decision -that tenure not be granted to Susan J. Depew, an assistant professor in the Department of Medical Technology. We feel that this would be a great loss to the University and its future students. Her ability as a teacher, her personal interest in her students and her willingness ter provide them with extra help when needed qualify her as an exceptional teacher. We protest the granting if tenure solely on the basis of an instructor’s publications, ignoring teaching effectiveness. Research is important, but it should not be the only function of a teacher. In particular, ill a small department such as Medical Technology, the faculty rather than the graduate students carry most of the burden of the teaching load. Hence if they are .to be effective instructors they have less time to devote to research. We feel that if it is a question of an increase in publications vs. an increase in teaching effectiveness, the latter should be given equal if not greater consideration than the former in the {granting of tenure. We urge the reconsideration of this matter, since it is apparent that teaching ability was not taken into proper consideration in the decision regarding Susan Depew’s tenure. • Thank you. 80 concerned students of The Department of Medical Technology Master's program Hues V«.

This program was the American Library Association. We would like to mention also that the library program at Geneseo, which proudly claims a history of seven decades, has an outstanding placement record and supplies well-trained librarians and information specialists to ended in 1969. He, To the Editor. A recently published article in The Spectrum has been brought to my attention. It is an account by Mr. Charles Greenberg of a meeting in protest of the recommendation by the President’s Academic Planning Committee to “diminish” the School of Information and Library Studies (SILS) at Buffalo. In this interesting report, the author quotes Daniel Schabert, President of the Student Representatives of SILS, who described the Academic Planning Committee Report as inaccurate and misleading. The very same statement by Mr. Schabert could qualify as misleading as to the status of our graduate program in Library and Information Science here, in Geneseo. Mr. Schabert seems to suggest that the library science program in Geneseo libraries within and outside New York State. We would very much appreciate it if you could print in The Spectrum this note which would definitely clarify Mr. Schabert’s statement. L. Kaldor Dean School of Library and Information Science Ivan MFC speaks out To the Editor. The Millard Fillmore College Student Association representing the 4,600 students enrolled in the evening division of this University adds its support to the protest against budget reductions levied on the educational system in the state. As mature adult students, voters, property owners, taxpayers and workers in Buffalo and Western New York, we pay for our education taxation and tuition. advisors, Reduction in faculty, course etc. reduces proportionately, the opportunity for students of any age to pursue an education beyond through xiigh school. Many of our students hold responsible jobs in the community and are seeking to increase their potential. The balance are attempting to obtain an education which will afford them the same opportunity. In both instances, we are supporting the local economy and this University. An increase in our tuition in tandem with fewer academic provisions defies logical explanation in a society which prefers the “educated” employee. We, therefore, endorse an orderly and intelligent refutation of the inequities now confronting us.

One does not expect such blatantly bigoted remarks to appear in a University publication. Josephine Wise Computer Science I’m writing in response to The Grump inMonday’s The Spectrum. It really hit home. I was in a relationship which naturally (?) ended in January. The scab hasn’t even begun to form yet. I even tried taking answers to lunch but they only confused me more, making me want to be closer to John (that’s his name). Everytime 1 see him I want to be how we were but refrain my actions. It’s so hard to just be friends. St Joseph's table To the Editor: Will The Spectrum print anything? Monday it printed this letter from Douglas Damoth: “1 wish to thank the people who made it possible for me to not attend classes in Hayes Friday, St. Joseph’s holiday. Their method was in ' the best Italian tradition.” First of all just who in Mr. Damoth’s mind made it impossible to get into Hayes Hall last Friday? Does he mean the protesters or the security forces, or both? Perhaps he can’t decide just who his enemy is. when he took aim it Regardless, this much is clear was the Italians who got hit as he attempts to make some wit out of the situation. This .at tempt and The Spectrum's acceptance of it shows more reflex than reflection, really, and all are forgiven. Why should the forced closing of a building be considered particularly Italian when the Czechs throw people out windows? But seriously, the kind of assumptions on which these little jokes rest can hurt more than overtly malicious attacks on people’s identities. It is the open house of the St. Joseph’s table that is in the best Italian tradition. This observance is one of the'surprises Buffalo has held forme. I have ehjoyed seeing it become more popular each year and spread among non-Italians. May Mr. Damoth find himself a place at the table next year. — - — Robert Wise Is It Building Sand Castles ? To the Editor. J My situation is different from yours though. I wish he would become friendly with another girl because at least that would be a reason for us to have changed our relationship. As it is, I have none. For a week (back in January) he was acting strange and then he told me that things were confusing and he didn’t want our relationship to continue as it was. I tried to be mature to his wishes and said OK. The next morning it hit me (and hard). Talks are useless because 1 keep ending up with a greater feeling to get together and he doesn’t. Why? 1 keep asking mySelf, “What was our four months together anyway?” I feel like a donkey being led around by a carrot just out of my reach. I’ve never been in such a situation and I don’t want to be. I’ve tried every alternature on my own to forget him but they don’t work. The only answer seems to be him but he’s made it absolutely clear that anythihg between us is out of the question. All I’m left with is time and waiting, waiting and more waiting. Every day hurts so much from waiting because I don’t even know what I’m waiting for. Reading your article relieved me to know I’m not being silly and that I’m not the only one faced with the most perplexing emotion known to man, love. This emotion holds extreme power that most people don’t realize. I know that I never realized it. My confusion has hurt others and ruined a possibly beautiful relationship. Now I’ve been hurt and can say that if doesn’t feel so good. I don’t want to hurt others or myself. Maybe the matureness is not breaking up calmly, but understanding another person by giving your total self and keeping together. That means that if you’re going to give at all, the relationship is so much better if you’re giving your best without being scared or confused. This is pretty risky to any individual so it’s better to look before you leap. Love is pretty strong. I wrote a poem which brings out the strength of this emotion. When the time glasses sands have passed through love, and the grains left behind towers to a mound, on the top waits a damsel for her galant knight, but he never arrives and she boils of why in her Fantasy world. A Fantasy world. It’s a Fantasy world. Once upon a time the glass was full and a knight with intentions of live for today came to her life and she warily trusted herself away, but he opened the funnel and the grains fell till he left, so she creams on the sand in a fantasy world. A fantasy world. It’s a fantasy world. So die waits oil the beach where they once laughed building castles of a love that she never really had. With shaky hands a tower is born, then she stares at the ocean in the silent morn of her fantasy world. A fantasy world It’s a fantasy world. The days brought waves and the castle drowned All that’s left are tiny grains scattered across the ground. Guilt curiosity brings him back to search her home and while walking on the beach, he finds her dead on the sand in a fantasy world. A Fantasy world. It’s a Fantasy world.

Bob Sinkewkz Spectrum Staff Writer The Buffalo Coalition to Defeat Senate Bill I (S.l) held an informational meeting for the general public last Tuesday night at the North Buffalo Food Coop. S.l is the 799-page document originally intended as an update of the 1909 Federal Criminal Code which is currently in effect and contains a number of contradictions and redundancies. Coalition representatives Rich Greenberg and Eric Lehman discussed how S.l would affect our daily lives if it is implemented by Congress. Essentially, the Coalition concurrs with former Senator Sam Ervin, who said, “S.l is simply atrocious and would establish what is essentially a police state.” Formulation of S.l began when President Lyndon Johnson established the National Commission on Reform of the Criminal Laws, chaired by former California Governor Pat Brown, in 1966. After five years of study, the bi-partisan commission’s three Senators, 3 Representatives, three Judges, Federal three members-at-large and 14-member advisory committee The bill also permits conviction of a person for a crime he has been induced to commit by an undercover police agent, and could institute penalties as stiff as the death sentence for publicizing “national defense information.” Life imprisonment or death could also be levied “in time of war or during a national defense emergency” for- collecting or communicating such information with the knowledge that it “may be used to prejudice the safety or interest of the United States or to the advantage of a foreign power.” Freedom restricted The exposure of government corruption by a federal employee or a news reporter could also subject the individual to this law, Greenberg said. Daniel Ellsberg, Tony Russo, the New York Times and the Beacon Press would have all been subject to prosecution, he added. Part of the bill is a redraft of the 1940 Smith Act which dealt with sedition, and which provides harsh penalties for inciting “other persons to engage in imminent - such as food manufacturers, and clothing industries and even universities. Greenberg conduct that would facilitate” the destruction of or state property. federal According to Greenberg, this section would severely limit the to First Amendment right freedom of speech. The part of the bill dealing with drug offenses states that possession of any amount of marijuana no matter how small would subject the defendant to 30 days in jail and/or a $10,000 fine. A second offense would increase the prison term to six months with the same fine. lawless reported that has Senator Mike Mansfield introduced a proposal to remove 12 of the more controversial parts of the bill and attach them to other bills. . In the meantime, Greenberg said the original “S.l” would probably be changed to a new number to diffuse the opposition and confuse people. Presently, local Congressman Henry Nowak said he does not know enough about S.l to comment on it, and Senator Jack Kemp declined to say anything. A more liberal bill for criminal reform has been justice introduced in the House of INTERESTED IN: BACKPACKING? .Vague wording control section gun The provides an automatic one year jail term for illegal possession of a firearm.

Only three members dissented from the majority report, including Senator Ervin. Nixon didn’t like it However, two developments drew attention and criticism to S.l. Firstly, the dissenting committee members submitted a highly critical minority report on the bill to the Senate, and secondly, Nixon, who was not totally satisfied with it, had Attorney General John Mitchell proposal rewrite the and introduce it as Senate Bill 1400. However,'the two bills were soon consolidated, and reintroduced in January 1975 as the “Criminal Justice Reform Act of 1975” or S.l again. According to Greenberg and other critics of the legislation, S.l is intended to expand the government’s power over the individual citizen.

Being a lesbian does not always make you a feminist, one spokeswoman explained. In its earlier days, the Women’s Movement had shunned lesbians, resulting in what one woman described as “purges.” Lesbians were considered on the “wrong side” of the fence .and educating “straight” (heterosexual) women became a primary goal. Each of the three spokeswomen related her personal “coming out” experiences. One explained her desire to dispel the myths about lesbians, as well as wanting to “share the joy” that she had found. Another described “coming out” as a “continuing process.” Lesbians are always “coming out” to friends, to family, and sometimes to the people they meet at work, she said. - ' ‘Girl next door?’ Problems in the lesbian movement are not related to men, but rather to other people not letting lesbians relate to women. Women are lesbians not because they hate men, but because they love women, one woman explained. Lesbians are seeking power over their own lives, not power over other people, she said. The active lesbian community in most places is quite small and meeting other lesbians can be difficult, especially if you don’t drink, one woman said. However, the Gay Community Services Center is helping to provide an alternative to gay bars. The center, run jointly by the Sisters of Sappho and the Mattachine Society, organizes dances, camping trips and the like. Currently the>Sisters of Sappho are involved in organizing “Gay Pride Week.” The celebration, scheduled for mid-June, will include dances, workshops, and a weekend trip to Alleghany State Park. yours!

Starting in a few weeks, the $2 bill will make a comeback and if it’s as popular as officials think it will be, the $1 bill may become obsolete. The government is considering replacing the $1 bill with a $1 coin, bigger than a_quarter but smaller than a half-dollar. The $1 bill has already lost 40 cents of its former value just since 1966. (CPS) — Watching the walls melt Another Guinness world record hit the (CPS) dust this year when a former Ohio State University — student stayed awake for 300 consecutive hours. The former record, held by a South African housewife, was an unbroken 282 hours and S3 minutes of wakefulness. A disappointed Eric Steed climbed into bed after the 12 and a half day ordeal claiming that he hadn’t [got) to the other side yet.” Steed did not elaborate on what the other side was but he said his reasons for undergoing prolonged sleeplessness was that he was “curious about other states of awareness.” Steed wasn’t able to get much accomplished during his 300 waking hours other than stare at a live television set and drive around while playing with his citizen’s band radio. He tried to read and write but after a few days he gave lip on those activities. Warmer weather may bring Steed out for another try at breaking his own record. “I feel confined doing this in the winter,” he said. “Other than going for a drive in may car, I’ve been watching the same walls melt for a long time. It gets a little boring.” Native honored training (CPS) by Indians, forgotten in spring A Massachusetts researcher has come up with the answer to the never-ending question of who is baseball’s greatest player. The answer is not Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb or Ted Williams but rather Sockalexis. Louis Louis Sockalexis? Louis Sockalexis. Sockalexis, according to researcher Emmanuel by Levine, many was considered of : his contemporaries as the ballplayer’s ballplayer. “Louis — I ■f-VV r • * Sockalexis had the most brilliant career of any man who ever played the game,” said legendary Detroit Tiger manager Hughie Jennings, who was Ty Cobb’s boss from 1907—1921. “He should have been the greatest player of all time,” continued Jennings, “greater than Cobb, Wagner, Lajoie, Hornsby or any of the other men who made history for the game.” Sockalexis played for the old Cleveland Spiders in the National League from 1897—1899. An outfielder, he once held an opponent to a triple by pegging the catcher a perfect, 414 foot strike. At his first major league time at bat, “Deerfoot of the Diamond,” as he was called, smacked a curve ball far into the Polo Ground’s bleacher?, jyst the first of many extra base hits. Sockalexis was a full-blooded Indian of Maine’s Penobscot tribe and that fact almost prevented him from ever donning a baseball uniform. His father, angered at his son’s hankering for “the sport of white man," paddled his canoe down the Atlantic Coast to Washington to ask Great White Father Grover Cleveland permission to make his son a chief. The strategy was that Louis’ time would be taken up with affairs of the tribe. But Louis sniffed out the plot and by the time his father returned, he had left for Holy Cross College and its baseball team. Sockalexis’ career was cut short in 1898 when his ankle was crushed while saving a baby trapped in a runaway carriage. In 1915, the American League’s new Cleveland franchise named their team the Indians in Deerfoot of the Diamond’s honor. Chip off the old lid gets high honor (CPS) Guess which person currently hard at work on the campaign trail has been given the first — “American Weed Seed Award?” Jimmy Carter no.

Goodyear L Page twelve - First in nation Pellom’s improvement was obvious in Buffalo’s early games, as he scored 28 points and hauled in 22 stray shots at Syracuse, but it wasn’t until the beginning of January that Pellom’s name appeared at the top of the NCAA rebounding list. “1 thought it would last a week or so, and then someone else would take over,” Richardson said. “With the competition we play, 1 didn’t expect him to be leading at the end of the season.” Pellom’s attitude was a little different than Richardson’s. “1 knew I was leading for the first semester, so 1 figured I could keep it up," he said. “1 felt the pressure after the first semester, because everyone knew I was leading the nation, so they were trying to stop me.” But they couldn’t stop Pellom, and people around the country began to look up and notice him. “Evidently, he must have shown somebody something,” Richardson remarked. “That’s what a good schedule can do for you.” Pellom was named Honorable Mention All-America by the Associated Press, and was nominated to be invited to the upcoming U.S. Olympic team tryouts. (One hundred and fifty players are nominated, to be invited, but only 50 receive the honor. The actual invitations have not been announced.) Pellom would jump at an invitation to the Olympic team tryouts. “That’s everybody’s dream to make the Olympic team,” he said. But making the Olympic team would probably require ajot of work - . The Spectrum . Monday, 29 March 1976 After watching Pellom play, he invited Pellom to come to Buffalo, and Pellom quickly accepted. Pellom had been out of high school for several years, and until then, had no intentions of going to college. “1 had no idea he would be that good,” Richardson stated. “I just knew that we needed a player that size.” Even before Pellom played his first game for Buffalo, he was referred to as “the franchise.” He surpassed everyone’s expectations even in his freshman year, and he has been the key to Buffalo’s success for two years. Better still? Despite this and Pellom’s national rebounding title, both he and Richardson agree that there is room for improvement. “1 would like Sam to be more physical,” Richardson said. Pellom feels he can be more physical, but added, “That’s not my game.” Even so, Pellom said he would probably work on that over the summer. Another thing Pellom has been reluctant to do is drive towards the hoop, but that’s been due to the referees, according to Pellom. They don’t call blocking fouls when a player steps in front of a driving player, but instead call a charging foul. Pellom recalled that in one game, twice he drove and made baskets, but twice he was called for an offensive foul. After that, he limited his offense to shooting from the outside. “We try to bring the ball closer to the basket because of a player like Sam,” Richardson said. As Pellom continues to improve on offense he might get his wish that the Bulls run more plays designed to get him the ball. But in the meantime, he’s going to continue working on his skills this summer, whether or not he makes the Olympic team. It’s almost frightening to think what would happen if the nation's leading rebounder continued to improve. �� Hockey predictions forfinalplayoffs by Larry Amoros Spectrum Staff Writer As the National Hockey League’s regular season draws to a close, all of the knowledgeable scribes around the circuit start to make their final playoff predictions. So, after carefully keeping tabs on the NHL all year long, this scribe around the circuit will make his final judgements too. The easiest place to start would be with the top clubs in each division, who draw automatic byes in the first round and advance directly to the semi-finals by virtue of their first place finishes. In the Wales Conference, we find Boston and Montreal sitting atop their respective divisions. The Bruins, after sagging through much of the early campaign made two big deals, and zoomed to the head of the class in the Adams Division. First they made the famed Halloween Day trade with the hapless New York Rangers, shipping star center Phil Esposito and sometimes-star Carol Vadnais to the Blueshirts in exchange for star center Jean Ratelle, sometimes star Brad Park, and future star Joe Zanussi. While Park has been sidelined for the last part of the season, Ratelle is playing better than ever and leads the B’s in scoring with 94 points. He has also returned linemates Bobby Schmautz and Johnny Bucyk to the lofty scoring heights they had grown accustomed to in recent years. Although dealt a blow the other night when Gregg Sheppard hurt bis foot, (he Bruins were still deep enough up front to compensate for the loss of their heady center. Defense, however, once a Boston forte, may be tire weak link in the Bruins’ Stanley Cup drive. They are minus both Bobby Orr and Brad Park, and subsequently they receive very little firepower from the blue line. Dallas Smith, Darryl Edestrand, Hank Nowak and Gary Doak are all capable defensively, with Smith leading the corps. In the nets, the Bostonians are tight if nothing else. Neither Gilles Gilbert nor Gerry Cheevers are great, but Cheesy shuts the door in the playoffs. The Bruins picked up their former star goalie from struggling, the Cleveland Crusaders of the WHA to bolster their Cup chances, and he may be the man to do it. Canadiens favored There isn’t a whole lot to say about the Montreal Canadiens. They are solid every way but up, and it is virtually impossible to find a flaw on the squad. Les Habitants sport the league’s top scorer, Guy LaFleur, as well as the Vezina Trophy leading goalies Kenny Dryden Bunny and Larocque. Surrounding LaFleur on offense are Peter Mahovlich, Yvan Coumoyer, Jacques Lemaire and Steve Shutt, stars all of them. The Habs are the odds on favorites to win the Cup, and their 54—11 10 record supports the — odds. In the Campbell Conference, defending champion Philadelphia Flyers have clinched the title, and are prepping for post-season play. The Flyers never really had too much trouble this season, in spite of the fact that ace goalie Bernie Parent missed the first 63 games with a neck injury. Wayne Stephenson performed admirably in Parent’s absence, and newcomer Gary Inness gives the Flyers great depths between the -pipes. Bobby Clarke, everybody’s most valuable player last year (and probably this year) is the number one player in the league today as his linemates Reggie Leach and Billy Barber will attest. Leach has SS goals and 25 assists (79 points). Barber has 43 and 59 to total 102, and King Clarke sdpports his 30 goals with 80 assists. The Flyers lost Rick MacLeish for the season in October, but Mel Bridgeman and Orest Kindrachuk have combined for 40 goals to ease the burden. Overall, the Flyers have the best offense in the league, a super defense led by the and brothers, Watson solid goaltending, all of which should lead to the Stanley Cup finals. Black Hawks underdogs In the NHL’s Smythe Division, the Chicago Black Hawks are in immniimmmiii VITA Hours: Monday, 10-8 Tuesday, 10-2 &4-8 Wednesday, 10-8 Thursday, 10-2 Friday 10-12 &2-4 VITA— Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program is in operation now until April 15th.

Bobby Orr enjoyed this sip from the Stanley Cup in drive for another NHL championship. first place due to a lack of talent surrounding them. The Hawks would not even make the playoffs if they were in another division, let alone win a title. The only thing Chicago has had this season is Tony Esposito, who is working his pads off once again. Poor Tony-O hasn’t had enough help from anybody this year, and it doesn’t look like the Red Cross is going to provide him with emcxgency aid for the post-season The Hawks should get their wings clipped in the early competition. rounds. Simply finishing first does not automatically permit a team to take horn Lord Stanley’s silver platter, and thire are eight other teams to battle the division leaders. To begin with, there are the hometown Buffalo Sabres who have a good chance to go all the way. Despite frequent listless performances, the Sabres have a lot of talent, and can do the job if they play at their best. The only possible problem the locals may have is in the goal, where neither Gerry Desjardins nor Al Smith have a lot of playoff experience. Last year, Desi fell apart in the finals, although he has been fine this season. If the goalies do their job, the Cup may sit in the Aud. Wes tops in New York Directly on the Sabres’ heels are the upstart New York Islanders. The only good hockey team in the Big Apple now, the Isles have proven themselves to be one of the most balanced squads in the league from goal to goal. In the nets, little Glenn “Chico” Resch is the number one netminder in the league this year (1.89 average, 7 shutouts in 39 games), with Billy Smith backing him up. The offense is blended among three lines, and the defense is spearheaded by the Potvin brothers. The Islanders can do it all, if they overcome their inconsistencies. 1972. and his health may be a key factor in his Bruins' semi-finals are finished, it will probably be the Canadiens and Flyers in the final round. If that’s the case, look for Montreal to win it and spoil the Flyers quest for a “hat trick” of Stanley Cups, because without a totally healthy Bernie Parent, Dryden could be the difference. The dark horse team here is the New York Islanders, who have a way of making things happen.

Forearm bone Powerful person Compete Of the remaining six teams, only Pittsburgh and Toronto are real contenders, with Vancouver, St. Louis, Los Angeles and Atlanta falling into the class of good but not good enough to win. If the Penguins can overcome mediocre goaltending by Michael Plasse and Bob Taylor, they could cause trouble. Baby-faced Pierre Larouche and veteran Jean Pronovost are in the top five scorers, and they lead a very potent offense. The Maple Leafs are more balanced than spectacular, but they tend to be lifeless. Wayne Thomas is good in the goal, and Borje Salming adds savvy to a nondescript defense, but the offense is somewhat suspect. The Leafs could prove to be spoilers, if they come up with consistently good offensive performances. After all the quarter-finals and Monday, 29 March 1976 The Spectrum .

The students departed Haas Lounge and marched to Hayes Hall at the urging of a woman from the Revolutionary Student Brigide, the last student speaker s in a lively forum where angry, questioners often sarcastic confronted Ketter for an hour. The protestors left the Annex, the school’s which houses Admissions and Records offices, after reading their list of demands to television reporters. Ketter threatened to have them removed by the City Police. Plainclothed Campus Secutiry officers stood by during the sit-in but did not intervene. During the forum, Ketter responded quickly, calmly, and often tediously, but revealed little new information. Most of the questioners identified themselves as members of a campus political y organization or club. Several spoke as members of a College. Some were Student Association (SA) officers. ' Hayes Annex is occupied briefly; Ketter takes on students in Haas Lounge Mild bemusement of the Meanwhile,“~Tljost students looked on in mild cheering, booing, bemusement or groaning in mock sympathy with Ketter’s responses; once or twice the tension was broken by laughter. Ketter was nonplussed throughout. The forum was arranged by SA following last Friday’s incident at Hayes Hall where one student was arrested. Ketter said a list of this University’s retrenchment must be sent to Albany by May 1. Before that, he said, recommendations will be made by the University Vice Presidents on what cuts will be made in their areas. Ketter noted, as he has in the past, that the cuts in the University budget were made by the state legislature, not SUNY or the University “You can kick and scream and make all the noise you want,” he said. “But the check machine is not in Buffalo” The University needed a $6 million increase over this year’s budget to maintain itself at the It received a current level. S500.000 increase instead. Ketter said 143 positions at the University had been eliminated by Governor Hugh Carey. — when the state approved special emergency aid Cor New York City last year. Ketter added that most SUNY money comes from tuition and room rent, which Is set by the Money matters Before questions. Ketter SUNY Board of Trustees. But lie briefly outlined what he said were said the Governor can pressure the the only four times money can be Trustees to raise tuition and room as rent, and had in fact done that appropriated by the state part of a deficit budget for the this year. Asked point blank by former previous year in the first or President Frank Jackalone if week of as SA January; part second of normal operating budget in he (Ketter) would send a telegram March; in a supplemental budget to the Trustees at their meeting in sometime later; or in a special New York that afternoon urging financial session of the legislature them not to raise tuition and called by the Governor, as was the room tent. Ketter declined. But case — T he said he would be happy to send increase tuition, more positions a telegram saying it was 'would have to be cut.

Regional meetings “Nothing.” several students Ketter said he favered a student request being made shouted in reply. Several questioners criticized around the state that the Trustees of the hold regional meetings to discuss the interim report President’s Committee on matters with students, but said he did not believe the “time frame" Academic Planning (PCAP) for its would allow the hearings to be singling out programs considered held before the tuition increases innovative and beneficial to were passed by the Trustees. He minority members. Ketter repeated his position added that if the Trustees did not “budget document.” But Social Science College instructor Robin Weeks was unconvinced. The PCAP is a conscious political decision, a racist attack on education,” and demonstrates “a radically conservative interpretation of affirmative action,” he insisted. Conflict of question Many students speaking at the forum pointed out the apparent contradiction of , increases in profits for big banks and corporations at the same time education was being public trimmed. Many placed the blame f6r the SUNY cutbacks on c.aptialism and the ruling class. One student asked Ketter if his sitting on the Board of Directors of Marine Midland bank, the largest in New York State, was not a conflict of interest. This was cheered loudly. Ketter said it was not because he had for a year and a half left the Marine Midland Board, examined the banks’ investments, and found no conflict. He added that University of Buffalo Presidents had sat on the Marine Midland Board since 1918. Throughout, students peppered Ketter with questions like, “Whose side are you on?” and “Where did you learn to pass the buck so well?” Ketter insisted that the best way students could help the University was to meet singly or in groups with area legislators. At one point, studetns asked if Ketter would take a cut in his yearly salary. “Certainly not,” he shot back. Among other things, Ketter said the eliminated office of Advisement Foreign Student would be restored under another name, that he favored student input on the Amherst Campus commerical development only in an advisory capacity, and that he would oppose any move by Comptroller Arthur Levitt to charge rent to Faculty Student Associations, which run food services, bookstores, and other operated services on state campuses. -Asking SA for money to go for a statewide Albany to demonstration for a campus-wide referendum on a student strike, and to sponsor, with others, a teach-in. —supporting a statewide strike, with specific date to be decided upon. -making State University students a higher priority in the state budget. —meeting with the Board of at this Trustees publicly University -granting general amnesty for all students arrested in campus demonstrations across the state.

At the State University College at Purchase, 40 students took over the school’s Administration building for seven days. Wednesday morning the students' left the building. A student Senate representative at Pruchase stated that, “The occupation ended in good faith that Board hearings would be held.” ' On Tuesday, Purchase students went on strike protesting the injunction against Fredonia State College students who also have occupied the administration building there. The strike lasted one only day, and ended Wednesday, when student open demands concerning hearings were met. A Purchase student said “the strike was not all that popular. In fact it was quite disorganized.” At Fredonia, students occupied the administration building for five days. Meanwhile, students got together in the Student Union organizing petitions to be sent to legislators. While tjiese meetings were held, the State Supreme Court in nearby Dunkirk ordered all students to leave the administration building. When only some of the students left the building, those remaining were told they would face expulsion. After the remaining students left the building, rallies on campus the week ■ continued throughout 'and a meeting wiD be set up ~' -T. _- >>, * *»* t Tuition and dormitory fees will increase at all SUNY schools next September.

Only 11 schools responded to the request on time, according to Walker. The Trustees have authorized SUNY Chancellor pmest Boyer to study the feasibility of instituting a M andatory Student Health Insurance on several SUNY campuses, according to Russel Gugino, Assistant to the Vice-Chancellor for Student Affairs.

He asserted that Jackson’s hawkish stance (Scoop didn’t vocalize his opposition until 1973) is a relevant issue in this campaign, noting that between the time he declared opposition to the war and Jackson did, 20,000 more Americans lost their lives. In a recent television interview Jackson maintained that the United States committment in Vietnam was justifiable. Udall countered by saying America must admit its mistakes; “the war was wrong, just plain dead wrong.” > War an issue Udall asserted that the war is not just a “has-been.” It took a decade of opposition, a decade of anguish and debate to bring American involvement to an end. A candidate’s voting record on the war shows us what we can expect from him in the future. Will we continue our cold war tactics or adopt new policies?” Udall detailed the Pentagon’s superfluous and wasteful spending policies. He cited the development of the now-defunct Safeguard anti-ballistic missile (ABM) system as a classic example of a Pentagon pink elephant. “This turkey cost $6 billion and when it was finally finished it was operational for one day. The Safeguard system was closed down in accordance with terms of the U.S.-Soviet Strategic Arms Limitations Talks (SALT) which limited ABM deployment.

We need a nation that has its head on straight.” * Foreign policy stand Udall maintained that the foreign policy and defense issues which divide Jackson and himself are “central and revealing.” Dismissing the seemingly broadly based appeal of Jimmy Carter, he said that we need rnore than just a smile from a man who could be the next president of the United States. ‘The campaign hasn’t told us much about Carter. I don’t swallow the premise that a candidate can first attract votes and then reveal his policies.” Udall made repeated references to Adlai Stevenson, a man whom he obviously admired very much. He described the New York primary as a referendum on the kind of America Stevenson envisioned. “That journey of 1000 leagues begins with a single step, so we must never neglect any work for peace, and never surrender to a creative or compassionate attitude.” Udall, 6’4” former pro-basketball player, is a very imposing figure. Although he is a Mormon, he differs sharply with the Mormon Chruch on the issues of Women’s rights and birth control. The Arizonan is the first serious presidential contender House of from the decades, four Representatives in the last being William Randolph Hearst’s man, House Speaker John Nance Gardmer, who ran against Franklin Roosevelt in 1932. Udall’s in colleagues Washington hold him in very high esteem. In fact, it was they who convinced Udall to enter the race in 1974. The New York primary is crucial for him. Right now most political observers consider Henry Jackson to be the frontrunner in the primary two weeks away. But Udall is running delegate slates in 37 of New York’s 39 election districts, and has a formidable staff. Friday, 26 March 1976 The Spectrum .

The rally coincided with the NACV National Convention in Denver this week. The demonstration was peaceful, although about 10 city police, regular armed guards, and several FBI agents patrolled the inside of the building.

WNYCVC members expressed doubt about the VA’s intentions, and said in a press release, “Because so many worthwhile vocational and On-the-Job programs have been eliminated, and now* with the Colleges being threatened, We seriously question whether the VA is really Working in the veteran’s best interest.” The crowd expressed their sentiments'in picket $igns which read: “Ford has a better idea; Screw the Vets,” “Hooker Lies Vets Suffer,” and “Sit On It, A spokesperson for the Office of Veterans Affairs here claimed that his office has neither the available facilities nor staff to meet these new requirements and that the Office of Admissions and Records is not geared to provide the necessary information. Powerless Hooker insisted that his office is powerless. “We, as local administrators, have no power over the decisions made in Congress.” Hooker explained that the State Approval Agency furnishes the data to the New Regional York Veterans Administration office, not to his office. Veterans Association President Pat Kelly charged that the procedure by which unreceived benefit checks are traced is being misused in the VA regional office in Buffalo. When contacted, the VA fills out an Educational Assistance Inquiry (EAI), or pink slip, he explained. After five days, this form should be placed, in the h?nds of the Regional Director. Then, on (he fifth day, the complaintant is called by the VA and told that his complaint is under investigation, after which they fill out another pink slip, and again is delayed five days.

SA Treasurer Carol Block has ambivalent feelings about the funding coming from SA. The student service is important and all students deserve the right to their education, she said.

Members of CAC are hopeful that the center will be acceptable to the administration if the budget is passed by SA. Lorenzetti declined comment as to whether the budget Would be passed, stating that he had not seen the proposal in its complete form. However, he did claim that the outcome of his committee’s decision would not be affected by the events that led to the demise of the Day Care Center last year. “The current proposal will stand on its own merits,” he said. Continually emphasizing that the circumstances are different than last year’s, Lorenzetti said that if, the budget is passed by SA, it will be necessary for him to determine whether the funding is approved under the mandatory fee guidelines.

"Diaspora" means a dispersion of' people, in this instance the African people scattered throughout the western world through the slave trade. Diaspora, The Experimental Performing Arts Company of Chicago, Illinois, strives to trace ca/ryovers of Africa in western arts forms and religions, and also the interrelationships of the art forms. They took you back to the center of the dispersion and using dance, music, film and various other art forms and media traced the pattern of the diaspora through history, the history of Black Art. Their concert, Rituals and Celebrations, began with Africa. The scene was set by a procession of figures in tribal costumes. A lone musician played woodwind instruments which were apparently of African origin. This was a "Ritual to Damballah." It featured interpretive dancing to woodwind instruments with an Africa flavor. Sacred slaves "Praises," a poem with music and dance expressed the confusion of religion as new gods are met and old ones foresaken. This led to a that was simply blues song called "Nomo-sacred force" but silence after the applaud, to the wanted overpowering. Everyone storm of emotion intimidated them. Boykin's poetic reading, "Links and Chains" was embellished beautifully by the dancing of Ernest Luis. They took you on a journey with Luis bound in imaginary chains which restricted his movement. Boykin’s poem became almost a chant of "links and chains, that's how we got here, that's just how we came. African people around the world are one in the same link and chain, link and chain . . ." Now we're in America, with a slide show of Black Art depicting the hatred and confusion and the mixed emotions of strangers in a strange land. The power of the paintings and sculpture flashed over and . over again so that we absorbed more emotion and confusion Finally a song "Oh Damballah, Come Damballah" climaxed and swelled and moved that emotion up within you, almost choking you. — .. Black dawn With this background laid down. Part Two of the performance concerned modern Black Art. First came a lively West Indian number with colorful costumes and lights. Next was a song "Circle of Time" using an animated art film of a circular dias(k>ra of light to take us on a mind journey, to hypnotize and set the stage for a message. There followed immediately a slide show on Black Art stressing it as a community event rather than a mass medium. The pieces shown were of modern black society and what's happening now in Black Art. Continuing in this area, a film of Dr. Martin Luther King and the Montgomery Bus Boycott was shown with a recording of Otis Redding's "Sitting on the Dock of the Bay" followed by a dance rendition of "Wake Up Everybody." At this point, I realized something peculiar. The scene was America, 1976, and yet felt like Africa before the European invasion. The essence was clearly there from over 500 years ago. Diaspora's final dance and music piece was "I Dreamed" a chanting song, an enchanting ritual very smoothly arranged and choreographed to make it irresistably compelling. An animation videotape closed out the program. Well placed Attendance at the concerts was poor and this was unfortunate for those who missed it as well as the performers. Diaspora was one of the most exciting and entertaining events on campus or off this year. It was one show that the Katharine Cornell Theatre suited perfectly. The theatre helped create a beneficial intimacy between the viewers and the performers. The lighting was perfect. Even the lightning flashed over the skylight as a storm brewed outside was right on time. Diaspora's "Rituals and Celebrations" showed what multi-media was designed for. It was a taste of the vast power that can come from an intelligent blending of the art forms. �'Wherever You Go . • / Material is unimaginative by Roberta Rebold f Spectrum Arts Staff Of the nearly 20 comedy skits comprising Wherever You Go You're There, the American Contemporary Theatre's most recent production, only one stands out as being original and amusing. Several others did have segments or lines that were giggle-provoking. The vast majority of these short acts ranged from being predictable at best to infantile at worst. The opening skit was a group of apparently snobbish people mingling at a cocktail party. They circulated around the stage with their noses in the air, periodically clearing their throats. One member of the group then sneezes and the other party-goers pounce on him and beat him unconscious. As I sat awaiting the punchline, the lights went out and the audience roared with laughter. The evening continued at about the same level for an hour and a half. Schlock au vin —Ostasnaver Those bad boys from bean town, the J.

The play used revised versions of old jokes too. out to eat in an expensive French A restaurant. They give the waitress their complicated order of several French delicacies with numerous additions ("add fried bananas and mayonnaise to mine please, miss"). The waitress yells into the kitchen, "Hey, Frankie, make it a number four." Old jokes do not belong in the Actors Center repertoire. It would be expected that a supposedly experimental theatre group would use more innovative material. The humor often seemed pointless. There was RECORDS one skit involving John F. Kennedy and his love-life, yet it was not effective political satire. Another short piece parodied a game show, "Loser pf the Day," where the contestants were a bored housewife, a transsexual and a cockroach-sized woman. The easily satirized absurdity of .TV game shows was not captured. The play's attempts at slapstick failed too. Scenes with people being hit over the head with pillows would make the Three Stooges roll in their graves. Tripe-cast Although the cast is fully competent, none could be singled out for giving an outstanding performance. They are energetic and appear to try hard to make a sucess of Wherever You Go You're There. There is really no fair way of evaluating this company, for they are all victims of their poorly written scripts. In all fairness, though, it must be noted that most of the audience responded positively, and difference in taste always exists.' The most objectionable aspect of the play's material was its unimaginativeness. Is it really necessary to use more "dumb Polish” or "ball crushing feminist" jokes? Besides not being terribly funny, these stereotypes are overused and simplistic. Wherever You Go was limp and lacking in substance. It possessed neither the craziness of a Mel Brooks, the intellectual appeal of a Woody Allen nor any definable character of its own.

Peter Gabriel, whose cryptic lyrics and elaborate stage costumes reached a peak with last year's The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, has since left the group to pursbe an acting career, much to the dismay of his followers Although usually pegged as the man behind Genesis, Gabriel most often played himself down in interviews, insisting that their music was a group effort, and that no single member was any more important than any other. ' A Trick of the Tail, the first Genesis album without Gabriel, substantiates this claim, and is in fact a better album than its predecessor. The Lamb seemed, despite the singer's cries pf innocence, to be a one-man show, where dramatic fantasy and onstage impact were bought at the expense of musical achievement. The new album, although hardly a giant leap forward, has none of the filler material which marred the last, and seems to indicate that Genesis fs as good, if not better off, without their former lead singer. Drummer Phil Collirts has taken over as vocalist, and the Page six . The Spectrum . is uncanny he sounds more like Gabriel than Gabriel does himself. The classically-rooted keyboard work Tony of Banks is more predominant than ever, lending much of the quality which distinguishes Genesis from the many other bands of its type.

Steve Hackett and Mike R,,, herford (on guitar and bass, actively) are as proficient as filling out the band's lush result — — ai i aiigements perfectly. The material here, written by various combinations of the four but good, members, is unfortunately much of it is too reminiscent of earlier Genesis albums. "Robbery, Assault and Battery," for instance, is almost a pure remake of "The Battle of Epping Forest" from Selling England by, the Pound, although I like it better. "Dance on a Volcano," the album's opening cut, is pure Genesis alternating melodic choruses and strange verses backed by machine-like rhythm section interplay. The. acoustic song "Entangled" is probably the best on the album, and is one of the prettiest Genesis has ever done. The acoustic 12-string guitars of Hackett and Rutherford lend depth to Collins' overdubbed harmony vocals, and the the dream-world lyrics the eerie mood for Friday, 26 March 1976 — synthesizer-mellotron motif which ends the song. — "Squonk," also one of the album's better compositions, tells The Artpark Festival Chorus will perform in a music marathon at the tale of a mythical creature Artpark July 23—25.

When it comes to "quality" programming, the networks tend to rely heavily on outside sources. It — - is no coincidence that some of the best "television" shows are actually cultural events that originate outside the medium and which would exist even without the pervasive presence of the camera's red light. In such fields as news, sports, drama and films, all the networks really have to do is "report" the event: aim the camera and microphone and stand back. (Then the word "medium" would define television itself not the quality of its programs.) Unfortunately, television goes to the "well" too often to leave it "enough alone." The industry is constantly taking "art" and making a "program" out of it a television program.

What she's accomplished in the two years that st)e's chaired the committee is nothing short of phenomenal. Thanks mostly to her efforts, the Coffeehouse is doing things more more efficiently than it ever has before.

Nowhere is television's attitude toward art more apparent than in its (mis)treatment of films. Wanted, not all films are |o be considered great art, but television treats them all alike —badly. Perhaps television still bear* a grudge against tljp film industry. In the late fortldi, when 50 million Americans deserted movie theatres for their living rooms, Hollywood declared war on television. Realizing that this electronic "toy" that they had never taken seriously had become a threat to their existence, the major studios decreed that no Hollywood film could be shown on television and no film stars could appear in any programs. They even went so far as to make films featuring scenes ridiculing the "boob tube": in Happy Anniversary, there is one scene in which David Niven deliriously kicks in one picture tube after another. Marriage of convenience Gradually, Hollywood’s resentment of television simmered down as the studios began to sell their old films to the medium (in 1956) and started producing — more and more television programs on their own including back lots.

The only constructive idea the denizens of window-less offices have to come up withris a title for this program. They are generally very scientific about it, using the formula: (day of the week) (time of day) "movie." The implication, of course, is that one film is like any other: The Money Movie may show (a badly butchered version of) Citizen Kane one day, followed by Godzilla Meets the Seven Dwarves (in two parts four the first day, three the next).

Since emerging in the early fifties, he has been one of the most influential ofall tenor saxophone artists. He ascended to leadership in the jazz world following the school of bebop and remolding it into what he himself jcalts hard bop. In 1956, Sonny joined the Max Roach Quintet with the legendary Cliff Brown on trumpet. In 1957, he was voted the outstanding tenor player in the Downbeat readers' poll. By 1959, he was at the top of the jazz world. After completing one of the most revolutionary albums of the decade with trumpeter Don Cherry, he vanished. For two years Sonny's absence from the music world was interrupted only by impromptu midnight sessions on the Brooklyn Bridge. Since that timere, there have been three critically acclaimed albums and infrequent live performances. Sonny Rollins' appearance at the Newport Jazz Festival last summer prompted critic Gary Giddons to call him the greatest living tenor player. His newest album. Nucleus, is a glimpse into the future and characterizes Sonny's ability to change with the times. The (JUAB Music Committee is extremely proud to be able to take a chapter of jazz history and hold it open for all to see. Sonny Rollins will be in Clark Hall at 8:30 p.m. tonight.

Friday, 26 March 1976 Prodigal Sun �Spider Martin Communication of emotion and life by Harold Goldberg Spectrum Music Staff I don't know if I truly understand jazz. It's true that jazz is a label for a certain kind of music but labelling a style is just a simple "out," yielding a flighty interpretation. John "Spider" Martin, the innovative jazz saxophonist who finished a sweek's stay at the Statler-Hilton tried to explain jazz to me. It starts out with a craving, a human need to communicate with something other than words —. something just short of a universal language. During the end of the Great Depression, Spider would listen constantly to a magic sound on the radio. He didn't know what instrument produced those mellow, lifting notes but he knew he needed to make that sound; he pictured that instrument in his mind and when he finally received that instrument, felt it in his hands and saw it with his eyes, it appeared as his imagination and dreams had fancied it. Image: a saxophone and a child consumed by a Niagara Falls ghetto, |he ghetto would soon be consumed with the touch of musical ~ intercourse. On stage, tension enfolds the surroundings with a crafted ambience as a golden sax breathes out Billie Holliday's "God Bless the Child." The tension is important, it operates on the ear blooming five senses from one. The sax is nourished by the glowing energy of the man.

Antonia Brico's motto runs, and this principle by which her whole life has been governed was repeated again and again during the lecture and workshop she presented here Tuesday and Wednesday. (At one point midway through Tuesday njght's talk in the Fillmore Room, in fact, she insisted that the whole audience recite the line along with her; the urge-to conduct obviously pervades everything she does.) For Dr. Brico, this creed has certainly been useful; as both a woman and a conductor, she was anathema to managers and orchestras for almost 50 years. But she persevered and won. Delivering anecdotes and bits of wisdom she has picked up during the rather extreme ups and downs of her long conducting career. Dr. Brico spoke to an enthusiastic audience about the obsession that started when a lonely five-year-old watching a band leader in a park "thought it was so interesting that a little stick could make such beautiful music." at the moment is my favorite work," Dr. Brico naturally "vibrates," as she put it, to the music of a few composers most of all; a discussion of the relationship between two favorites, Bach and Mendelssohn, started off her Wednesday morning workshop in Baird Hall. In response to an early question about whether she had seen the completed version of the Judy Collins-Jill Godmilow film Antonia: A Portrait of the Woman (its release in 1974 was largely Prodigal Sun - Prisons and Philharmonics He tells me this is naturally contrived. To communicate with the audience he digs deep for their emotion, impelling an angry feeling of not knowing what will happen next. Striving for a colored argument, he smoothly and firmly talks with the saxophone becoming protagonist Spider Martin wins the extraordinaire; he wins the argument argument but the audience doesn't lose. — Recollection: A few months after the Attica rebellion. Spider Martin serves time for attempted forgery. Musical instruments shot up during the rebellion. Happiness. A guitar is found. Spider teaches the inmates to play without instruments. He then takes over the choir. Little time for gospel, much time to teach music. Word of mouth leaks to the outside. The Rochester and Buffalo Philharmonics commission Spider to compose and orchestrate pieces for performance. He writes music for 86 different instruments while he is familiar with few and in contact with even fewer. — Labor of love "The music saved my life," she said of the sad childhood during which she dreaded school vacations and "loathed Saturdays and Sundays." Years later, as a young music student in Berlin, she admitted, "there were times when I cheated and lied to get into rehearsals," hiding under seats until concert hall lights went out and dashing madly past guards. "You have to fight for what you wartt," she emphasized once more, justifying her pride in these exploits. Organizing her talk nearly as unconventionally as she arranged her career. Dr. Brico began with a question-and-answer period, pulling together widely varied threads of experience from her Berlin student days,,twenty-year association with Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, fame and then near-infamy as a conductor, and long friendship with Albert Schweitzer to construct replies which spanned three continents and seven decades. "The top of tfvMbp" of the influences on her music has been Dr. Schweitzer (among the dozens of unexpected stories she tells about him concerns his three pelicans; "he named them Tristan, Lohengrin, and Parsifal, and he used to bow to them each morning"), although she also claimed to "worship the ground Sibelius walked on." Despite her confession that "the one I conduct Spider Martin joined Lionel Hampton's country music group at the age of 19. The group would tease the audience with mellow entertainment until the show neared its end and Martin would aim his sax to release the pent up energy of peoples' emotion with a tune called "Spider." Those who didn't know Martin's name would identify him with the tune and shout, "C'mon. C'mon Spider-man." Thought' A man with a sax who sensitively communicated with the ghetto, now feeling put down in a different world with cat-calls, needs to rebel. A man approaches, offering the sax-man a contract to play. Find a glory gimmick the name "Spider" in return for fun, money, getting high. Pieces fit. The tension flirts with the audience. Ears dance with the sound of an original composition, "Triangle." The gold sax spouts notes with rainbow colors, quickly, faster, in a blur. High to low fo deep, it mesmerizes the audience. Spider's eyes are closed; he sees the audience and correlates a wiley triangle from man to sax to people, fitting the impossible puzzle to dovetailed perfection. He sinks the audience with exhilaration and with a mellow, soft change he ends with a blue sadness which is happy lightness. Floating like a butterfly ' Awe and fascination are painted on the audience's faces as Martin plays with his group. The Ignition System. Drummer Tom Wailyer is motorized as he beats his throbbing drums; organist Barry Tee pumps a self-invented toy, caring not to break it; but, alas, it is the toy that at times controls him.

Spider says jazz is a mere type of music and seems to dislike the commercial label that comes with advertising and promoting music. All who can music is one; only the beat is idfferent.

David is best known for his early contributions to Ten Wheel Drive and his participation in the musical units of Miles Davis and Elvin Jones. Since leaving to form his own band, he has expanded the scope and influences which have always limited his yet supported approach to saxophone. Starting as a tenor player, Liebman, along of other young players, began concentrating on soprano sax. Miles' band fesatured his soprano work as its main voice. Liebman's own musical Farm, contingent, Lookout with a host represented a return to tenor as well as the use of alto flute, Lookout Farm was a congregation of musical abstractions, including the frantic pacing that has become Liebman's trademark.

The alternative of inclusion model and instrumentation structure releases Liebman from the conventional yet demands a clarity in tone and syncopation that fails to come across. Liebman's attempt to bring Indian music in direct contact with the overdrive of avant-garde jazz is admirable but leaves this listener with the confused feeling of being in a religious bingo game, not knowing which result is concrete. Synthesizers and sitars do- not seem natural friends. In this case. East meets West, and much like La Choy canned chow mein, it is better left unopened; Perhaps time will prove otherwise, and the inventiveness of the jazz idiom will find a comfortable home for our talented friends from India.

The L.A. Express, temporarily stranded, has found a suitable replacement indeed. David Lueli picks up the Express right where Scott left off. Luell plays in very much the same manner as Scott, and I can safely say, with an equal amount of dexterity. He plays, equally well in the moodier, slower tunes, such as the aptly titled "Suavemcnte (Gently) as he does in the more numerous faster paced cuts.

Feldman possesses slightly more innovation in this line than Nash did. The band's new album, simply titled LA. Express, contains some fine jazz numbers. There is a small drawback, however, to this album. The music sounds somewhat repetitive of their previous effort. The songs are, of course, different but there is a basic underlying similarity.

Not to be outdone by the russkies, we, in our bicentennial year have our own KGB. The American version-, though, is a rock band and the dissimilarities mostly end there for the activities of this KGB also leave something to be desired. Head honcho is Mike Bloomfield from Butterfield, Flag, etc. Along on the ride is Barry Goldberg from the Flag, Rick Grech from Blind 'Path, Carmen Appice from Fudge, Cactus and Beck and Ray Kennedy from California. All this band lacks is a guest appearance by Al Kooper. The music is delivered with-the technical proficiency one would personnel from of expect legendary rock bands. But as is often the case with these journeymen collections of talent, album lacks resulting the motivation and inspiration, thus creating an insipid quality. Side one opens with "Let Me Move You," which is an up-tempo number that previews the album with its overbearing vocals and crisp phrasing by Bloomfields' guitar. Kennedy's voice is rich and controlled but his desire to be soulful becomes irritating and detracts from the usic. "Midnight Traveller" and "High Roller" are slow ballads t|>at start easy, begin to build, and then just die. On the Beatles' "I Got A Feeling," Bloorrlfield plays with clarity and brevity and unveils a tonal quality new to his guitar work which this otherwise highlights uninteresting effort. "Sail on Sailor" is such a good song that it is difficult to make it sound bad. Kennedy triei hard but a decent version is pulled off anyway.

"It's Gonna Be a Hard Night" moves along well features and effortlessly Bloomfield emphasizing this disco-rock number with cliched rock riffs. "Magic in Your Touch" is another vehicle for Kennedy's vocals and is impotent. Compare this album to Electric Boz Scaggs Flag, Mad Dogs its and others of kind and its be limitations will obvious. Bloomfield would do better by new moving into musical directions but I guess he's too’ wasted to be creative.

Szobel plays an incredible piano, and although a newcomer, has to rank with the best pianists in the business.

It's hard to believe that an 18-year-old is capable of doing this much.

Karly in the letter Prof. Kazarinoff states. “This University is unique in my experience in the depth and breadth of personal conflict among faculty . ." I think that this charge is unfounded and I believe that Prof. Kazarinoff might have misinterpreted his own experience. It happens that I have taught at Prof. Kazarinoffs former institution and it is hard to imagine that anyone would think that there is more personal conflict here than there. I hope that Prof. Kazarinoff was not generalizing to the University as a whole the estimate of the level of personal conflict * that he gathered in a small part. Prof. Kazarinoff goes on to refer to “the faculty’s devotion to mediocrity in the name of liberalism, human rights and academic freedom.” This is a much more serious charge but one which has less substance. Taken literally it is absurd. The /'acuity's devotion to mediocrity...'! Of course, there is mediocrity here, not a large amount, but too much. And of course it disguises itself with various righteous labels. But why focus on the mediocrity which disguises itself as liberalism, human rights and academic freedom? Does Prof. Kazarinoff believe that such mediocrity is in some way more dangerous than the mediocrity disguised, e.g., as mathematics, traditional values, high standards, etc.? LaterProf. Kazarinoff reports emphatic negative answers by “research-active scholars” he contacted to the following question. “Should the University retain unproductive tenured faculty in weak, inessential programs and as a result fire. . . untenured, brilliant young scholars in strong, essential programs?” This revealing question should be read and reread, for what is there as well as for what is omitted. The question links ‘weak’ with ’inessential’ and ‘strong’ with ‘essential’ even though in neither case do the corresponding qualities go together among the programs in this University. Nothing is said of unproductive tenured faculty in strong, essential programs nor is there mention of brilliant young scholars in inessential programs. Could the answers of “research-active scholars" to this question cany any weight at all?

Or is he more interested in retaining the power he holds by the grace of his esteemed office as President and Board member of a prominent Buffalo bank? Can he provide any reason why a new graduate or undergraduate student should enter the State University at Buffalo when cutbacks, political reprisals and ruling class priorities rather than quality education, quality of University life and the needs of the plain people are the apparent watchwords of his administration?

Of course, the former Academic vice president was criticized because many felt that he had not exercised taste and judgement in forming the priorities. In my opinion, Prof. Kazarinoffs letter contains misinformation, unfair charges and useless presuppositions, and its publication only serves to further muddy an already muddy stream. May I suggest to future letter writers that they try to verify their facts and i- weigh their charges and presuppositions before publishing?

Blue Bird doesn’t have this. Maybe they should, have you ever noticed how many times Blue Bird drivers run slop signs on campus? As a matter of fact, a complaint was turned in on a Ridge Road driver for being late one day on campus. Later that day the driver was fired. It turned out that this driver was a former Blue Bird driver. It is illegal to stand on a school bus in this stale as Mr. I'ollack points out. The yellow buses that run on campus are not school buses, but are -classified as charter buses. Standing is allowed on charter buses regardless of type. The no-standing rule on the yellow buses on campus is not a law. but a Blue Bird regulation. It is because of this that Ridge Road allowed standees on the yellow “school buses.” I will agree that the new sign system is very easy to use. It is a very effective system when used properly. It is up to the driver to put in the signs in the front, right side, and rear windows. Look around, how often are the signs not displayed as per University regulations. Mr. Pollack, you say be resolved long as "... as that all problems will can follow the you regulations." To me the sentence should read that all problems will be resolved as long as you and other Blue Bird drivers follow the regulations." To you Mr. Pollack I say stop bull-shitting the students, the University and your employer. Hill Hack IKC-S i Hu\ing (ainmiltcc C'huinnau Friday, 26 March 1976 The Spectrum . Page thirteen . > �Correction the bull ptn by David J. Rubin ' In Monday's issue of The Spectrum it was erroneously reported that members of Student Association (SA) balked at a softball challenge by members of The Spectrum thereby resulting in a. forfeit victory for the newspaper. Although SA did balk at the offer, it eventually saw fit to reverse this decision. We of The Spectrum failed to allow for the usual policy changes so common in SA affairs. , ■ ' . \ .. When I first began writing sports’for The Spectrum back in 1973,1 covered the less prestigious varsity teams like, cross country and fencing. But even then, as a lowly cub reporter, the prospect of covering an intramural sports was a degrading one. 1 did not have a good understanding of the athletics situation at this Univeristy at that time, and to me intramurals seemed like the dregs of all athletics. As time went by, I proved up through the ranks of the sports department and began writing about more popular and prestigious sports like hockey, and this year as Sports Edifor, I have treated intramurals merely a? an afterthough. “Oh yes,” .1 would remember. “We should be writing something on intramural football finals,” I would say, and some short, uninteresting story would get written and printed. It was all tokenism, anyhow. Boy, was I wrong. The policy of downplaying intramural sports in The Spectrum has been around for so long that it is blindly accepted from year to year. Sitting at my desk in 355 Norton, I had no idea just how much interest there actually is in intramurals, especially Baseball Bulls Florida games successful , basketball. % This year’s playoff final between the Heads and the Rockets drew a sizeable crowd of about 500 fans. Even more impressively, the fans acknowledged good play from both sides, although most of them strongly favored either of the two competing teams. The game itself was incredible. Tensions were high, and both teams played some damned good basketball. What all this means is that The Spectrum has been severely lax in its coverage of intramural sports. The sheer number some 2500 probably makes it of people involved in intramurals the most all encompassing activity on this campus. I can’t understand why people haven’t written letters to The Spectrum complaining about this lack of coverage. Unfortunately, by the time I realized this gap in The Sepctrum's sports coverage, the intramural basketball season was ending, and it was too late to rectify the situation. But I sincerely hope that next year, intramural coverage will become an integral part Of The Spec-turn's - — by John H. Reiss Spectrum Staff Writer The baseball Bulls have returned from their Florida trip with smiles on their faces. For the first time in years the Bulls not only avoided disaster in their southern swing, but had a productive week besides. The Bulls finished with a 4-7 won-lost record, which, considering the caliber of play in the Tigertown Tournament, has to make all concerned very happy. Buffalo tied Big 10 runner-up Iowa for third place in the fifial standings. Big 8 champ Missouri won the tournament by posting an 8-3 mark while the Big 10 winner Michigan finished second with a 6-5 record. sports pages. It is not a comedown to cover intramurals. The players, refs, organizers, and fans tend to be most cooperative. Hell, everybody wants to be interviewed or photographed by The Spectrum. In fact, the informality of intramurals lends itself to a different, moe down to earth style of reporting which can add flavor to a sports story and an entire sports section. Because of Buffalo’s relatively good showing, enthusiasm is running high. “This was the most successful trip we’ve ever taken,” exclaimed Bulls coach Bill Monkarsh, now in his ninth year as coach. “We won more games -than ever before. The only thing th?t upset me is that we lost four one run games. Other than that, our group really played fantastic.” (yeah, you) HEY YOU PREMED PEOPLE!!!

Student strikes In fact, 1 could easily see the institution of an Intramural Athlete of the Week. I could see an intramural Statistics Box, and most of all I believe that The Spectrum can and should have a weekly intramural report with general notes and information about the past week’s activity along with a focus on one, or two different leagues each week. Infield gels 1 would like to take this opportunity to thank the people (you The most important achievement by the Bulls in should know who you are) who helped me realize just how bigi Florida was the improved defensive play of their intramurals really is. I will do everything in my power to ensure that in future years, intramural sports will be well represented on the sports infield. Last year the practically all new infield was plagued by a lack of communication. This led to pages of The Spectrum. - — MONDAY.

According to Monkarsh. the Bulls did not experience the same problems in Lakeland. “The defense was super," Monkarsh said. “We made more double plays than ever before. All around our infield was 100 percent better than last year’s. It was as good as anyone’s.” As has been their trademark in the past, the Bulls hitting was top notch. They compiled an outstanding .370 team average. Left fielder Jim Mary led the team, plugging at a .439 clip. Arms a question The Bulls’ pitching was also put to the test in Florida and the news about the mound corps is both good and bad. The staffs control was good and the pitching strong in the early games as Buffalo took three of their first four games. But poor control hurt the Bulls later in the tournament and it affected the results adversely. Monkarsh claims that his task how is to keep the team’s enthusiasm high during the present three week recess. The Bulls won’t play another game until April 2 when they meet Navy in Annapolis. Tm very hopeful for this year although it is a concerned hope. These guys have proven themselves under fire but they will have to continue to do it. The important thing for a successful season is that we split our games with the top teams and beat the poorer ones consistantly. If we can do that, we’ll be in for a good year.” —continued from page 7— ...

The shop specializes in books which are often tucked away in a corner of most regular bookstores. Studies of occult topics like witchcraft and astrology are carried .here, as well as books on yoga, health, cooking. Materials available and programs run by Great Earth extend beyond the sale of books. Beginning astrologers can find such “star-reading” necessities at ephremeris's books (containing tables of dates and planet positions) and charting paper; East-West journal is carried and a selection of .herbs, teas. oils, posters and incense. Several unusual courses are taught here, usually on a weekly basis for two to three months. Tarot reading and astrology are $40.00 each. For $100.00 a form of mind control called ‘“Insight.

Fret well. The Buffalo State students, who have occupied the first floor of (irover Cleveland Hall (the central administration building) since Friday morning, met with administration officials again Tuesday to discuss their demands. The 60 or so demonstrators intend to remain in the building until several demands are met. These include restoration of all STJNY cutbacks, immediate freezing of tuition and residential fees at present levels, the granting of amnesty for the two students arrested in last Monday’s Albany protest, the restoration of faculty lines cut in Health Sciences at Buff State, repeal of the Taylor Law which prohibits strikes by public employees, and the institution of open admissions and free tuition in the SUNY systme. Large reductions Buffalo State, which in 1675 76 operated on a S22.025.800 budget, was hit hard by this year's cuts. As the largest college in SUNY. it has been slated for SI.264.000 in appropriation reductions, despite the fact that the school's enrollment of 12.600 is its largest ever. Frelwell remains well disposed toward the student demands and the "stop the cut fight" in general. The protesters have strived for a. frictionless dialogue with the President in order not to alienate the administration, indicated student spokesman David Fsperon. Fsperon expressed the view that the administration’s cooperative attitude has diminished the liklihood of a general strike. In fact, the first tloor takeover has the tacit approval of the college president. The results of Monday’s closed door meeting with Fretwell were very, encouraging, according to Hric Greenberg, news editor of the Buffalo State newspaper. The Record. Fretwell tentatively acceded to many of the protesters~key demands, he said. Press coverage The Buffalo State •‘sit-in" has received extensive news media coverage. The exposure includes a front-page article in Monday's Courier h'xprcxx and television coverage by the three major local news programs. Overall, the press has portrayed the demonstration in favorable light. Ksperon said many faculty members and adininistration officials sympathi/.e with the students' demands. "Of course, it is natural that the faculty would support us: they are among those who have the most to lose from the SONY cutbacks.'' he noted. Buffalo State Campus Security has gone so far as to provide the protesters with food. Throughout their'stay in the building, the students have been sacking out in sleeping bags, subsisting on a snack diet of peanut butter, cheese, crackers and fruit. \ records in me garbage, bring Ihcnv used bookstore and here. As record exchange, the Circular Wont is one of Ihc few places where recycling can be observed first hand. ' Owner's motivation There tire several other used bookstores in Buffalo, but Tcddi Van Every, founder and present owner of the Circular Word, did not find them sufficient. She saw used bookstores becoming disorganized and dusty. But not in the Circular Word. The wide variety of'books are set up by category. Only clean-books with covers will be- accepted, thereby guaranteeing good condition. Van Every conceived the store two years ago. An article about book exchanges in I.ijestyle magazine sparked her interest and became the model on which the Circular Won! was built. She rented the storefront next to the Lexington Food Coop (where she worked then) for the shop. Van believes that her Ev$ty undertaking can serve as an example for others. "Almost any kind of plan can be successful." she said, "if there is enough energy and friends." The Circular Word and the Lexington Coop worked closely as next door .neighbors. The coop has recently changed Us location, yet Van Every has remained active in the coop, which site considers “a philosophical extension" of her store. Intended as coop Van Every originally wanted tire store to be a cooperative. Although it turned out to be independently owned and ruft. the dream is still with her. Her ultimate plan for the shop is to make it into both a book and o craft coop*. ;.i..

According to (Jury of the World Food Committee and ('AC. who was in Washington. D.C. last week, the Senate bill would lower the official poverty line for a family of four from S6200 to $5050 per year, as recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). This follows continuing inflation, which , reduces the buying power of the consumer’s dollars. The average household, which now pays approximately -23 percent of the cost of the food stamps H receives, would pay over 27 percent under (he new plan. In addition, while the'current program allows recipients to take itemized deductions for family thembers on their applications, the proposed setup would require applicants to take a standard deduction of SI00 per family member (SI 25 for those over 65). A new ,limitation of SI 5.000 worth of income-producing assets per family will preclude a number' of poor, small farmers from maintaining their food stamp eligibility, which may need to feed their families.' * Few real abuses The upcoming vote will that is the finished product reform ideas, one of which (•erald Ford, another from be taken upon a bill of four food stamp came from President James Buckley N.Y.k These bills were the result of a loud outcry from some corners (hat there were massive abuses taking place within the food stamp program. The World hood Committee points out that a USDA report to the Senate Agricultural Committee showed that fraud accounted for only .8 percent of the total food stamp allocations last year, a figure which is very low for a program of this sort. Covernment statistics have shown that, while there are currently 18.8 million persons on food stamps. 30 million people are actually eligible, or approximately one in seven Americans. However, about half of the people who fall below the poverty line are not participating in the program right now, due to the purchase requirement, which mandates that the poor must pay, for example. SI00 to purchase S166 worth of stamps. Since many poor families cannot afford to save up until they have SI00. the Dole-McGovern-Humphrey Amendment to the bill would simply give the poor family S66 in stamps, thereby streamlining the program and cutting costs at the same lime. Crucial amendment The amendment would also adjust the poverty line and standard deduction in accordance with the cost-of-living index, instead of the current method of using statistics which are one or fwo years old. If this amendment is defeated in the' Senate, it is unlikely that it will he included in the hill when the House acts upon it. Another amendment to the hill would assure that no applicant would have to wail more than 30 days after applying for food stamps. C urrently there is a mandatory period of 30 days after income loss, which is usually followed hy another 30-day wail. The World Food Committee has been urging citizens, especially in the Buffalo area, to write their senators and congressmen, urging them to work for the liberalization rather than the retrenchment of the food stamp program. �Day Cacej£tums CAC nursery in the making The Community Action Corps (CAC) has presented a SI 0.000 budget to the Student Association (SAI tor the establishment ol' a University nursery. This is the first attempt to recreate any type of day care facility since the tarly Childhood Center was dissolved last year. The nursery would differ from a day care center in various ways, hirst, a nursery costs much less to operate as opposed to a day care center which must he fully equipped with cots for each child, serve at least one hot meal per day. and maintain stricter child/slaff ratios under New York State hduealion Department regulations. Because the nursery can only hold a child for three hours per day. CAC wants to conduct two individual sessions lit accommodate more children. The project director for the CAC nursery is Carolyn MeGuffog. wlio became active upon learning that tlie Presbyterian Church on- Main Street would donate an entire floor for (he nursery. Parents will have to pay "just a minimal fee." depending on what they can afford, according its MeGuffog. MeGuffog and CAC Director Andy Harrington arc expecting the funds to come out of student fees. They have already submitted a budget proposal to SA. and plan to approach other student groups, including the Graduate Student Association. They do not intend to ask the University administration for any funding.

The Committee and its report may have found a new lease- on life following a letter sent to (setter from the Faculty Senate executive Committee the day before our Spring recess. Like the Senate resolution, the executive Committee called 'for reconsideration of the Interim Report, but suggested it be done by the current Committee. While the letter suggested that Ketter seek broader representation encompassing all segments of the University when filling several vacancies on the Committee, its criticism of the report and the Committee was confined to a statement that doubt had been cast ppon the Interim Report by its poor reception and by the criticisms made upon it. Good faith cited Perhaps most importantly, the Committee stated. "We ; . . reaffirm our' confidence in the integrity, good faith, and devotion to the well-being of the University of the committee members, who have undertaken l<S , perform a most difficult and thankless task very trying circumstances." I his was a somewhat kinder assessment of the Committee members than was heard at the in chooses, a selection which could politically dangerous considering a distinct dislike for the present Executive Committee within some faculty circles.

Editor's by Marc Epstein Special to'The Spectrum Some of you who have had the misfortune of riding the AMTRAK tfain between Buffalo and New York probably believe that the train a victim of has passed into history just like the Pony Express progress and the automobile. But that is not the case. Here in Japan, the trfin has progressed to levels of sophistication unimagineable in the United States. How ironic. When Commodore Perry met with Japanese officials for the first time he made sure to bring tangible examples of western technology that were certain to impress the Japanese. There is a famous almost comical illustration of Japanese officers of state gleefully riding what turned out to be Perry’s most significant gift, a . miniature railroad. - Pleasant ride From Kanazawa you can take a train (with a guaranteed seat) leaving almost every hour and making connections to every major city in Japan. The trip to Tokyo that covers 260 mijes. about 20 stops, and a change of trains takes five and one-half hou'rs. If the train is more than five minutes off schedule, the conductor apologizes in the most polite and formal Japanese I have heard that they are very sorry for the delay. Should the schedule be changed, the TV and radio will announce the changes well in advance. Like every place you go in Japan, the staTion is kept hospital clean, and the products available for sale are beautifully displayed. From Tokyo you can ride the famous Bullet Express. The Kanazawa trip is a milk run in cortiparison. The train covers a distance of 513 kilometers in less than three hours. It is safe, enjoyable and depressing when you contemplate how much more difficult this type of travel is in the United States. BBleated attempt There was a bleated attempt by the U.S. Department of Transportation in the late 60’s and early 70’s to encourage rail transportation again. Cities were encouraged to build mass rapid transit systems, and AMTRAK was created by an act of Congress to restore passenger rail -transportation. The results were so dismal that cities that planned rapid transit systems with thtf hope of massive federal funding (i.e. Buffalo) are now being told to reconsider. The new judgement is that short of banning the automobile and tearing up the interstate highway system, "the American way of life is inextricably tied to the car. Although proven high speed energy saving technology exists, the very structure of urbanization and suburban settlement in the U.S. prevents the success of a Japanese type of transportation system. The multi-billion dollar high speed transportation system constructed in the San Francisco Bay area called BART has failed its primary objective, reducing vehicular traffic. Although Tokyo may have massive traffic jams fhat rival any in New York, the basic pattern of transportation revolves around the train. The rugged topography made massive highway building difficult and the limited land mass demanded economical use of space. So despite similarities jn technological sophistication, the land itself has remained a crucial factor in the development of lifestyles in the U.S. and Japan.

In one New York alley, peeling though, playwright Jeffrey Brooks-has found love, heroin, dreams, and the beginnings of an ensemble theatre company. If s’ all in his’newest play. The Alley Between Our Two Hoiises. hcmg staged by the Theatre Department in The Han (man Theatre Studio .'V March 25 thru TO. In Jeffs words. “The dreaming experience can be just as important or as Valid as the waking experience." Alley is very concerned with dreams and fantasy, often to the exclusion of intellectual “understanding." In a large part, the play is a series of non-natural, unreal images that Jeff says “have to be responded to in a sensual way by the audience . . . the experience in the theatre should be more important than the intellectual message." — Loose salute “We tried to provide an atmosphere that was so free, so rum-judgmental, that the actors could try any interpretation they liked." (Some parts of the play were rewritten because the conceptions changed over the course of rehearsals, which have been going on since October.) But everyone was always conscious that “the aCtors'aren’t the directors” and that “pretense doesn’t work( *-jever.’ Much of the credit for the successful development of the ensemble belongs to Alley's director, Ray Munro. He came to the University with credits in the New York Sluikespeare Festival’s Hamlet and the Chicago Project’s Naked Lunch; like Jeff, he teaches in the Theatre Department here. “Finding a director that I can trust is the most exciting thing,” Jeff says of working with Ray. “He trusts the script and he trusts me.” James J. Keller is musical director for Alley, the rock score was also written by Jeff. Doug Sloan designed sets and costumes for the play. Alley is Jeffs second play to be produced at the University; his first. If A Tree Falls... was done here last summer. His next play, Auburn, is set for this coming fall. Ray Munro has himself devised a theater piece called Roommates, scheduled for production at the end of April. The Alley Between Our Two Houses is playing in the Harriman Theatre Studio March 25 through 30, starting at 8 p.m. Tickets ($1 for students, senior citizens, and unemployed, $2.50 for everyone else) are available at the Norton Ticket Office. ? " — It means what it says Alley strays considerably from some of the more “fundamental” conventions of meaning in a play; “It doesn't have a theme or a message.” What it does have is several “alleged poles" between which it travels (“It seems to me that I go one way of the other.”). Dreams and reality, of course, but there are others: oneness and alienation, humanity and hostility, and “heroin and love." perhaps the metaphor for them all. Jeff feels that more explicit explanation isn’t needed: “I think that just looking at life will tell you all you need to know." AJIey is being performed by a 20-member cast (playing 64 characters, “all based on people I know”) that is hoped will be the basis for a continuing ensemble of actors.

Tor into, call 85.5-l.206 $ - Great numbers of people buy audio equipment from distributors in the Buffalo area. Stereo components are being purchased at retail and below retail prices by a diverse cross section of the public. One audio dealer capitalizing on this trend is Purchase Radio, an independent local chain of three Buffalo stores. "Our patrons range from IS to bO years old.” said the manager of the Niagara Falls Boulevard, Amherst store. “Right now Citizens' Bnad (C.B.) radios are our most popular item, but usually stereo sales account for SO percent of our business.” The manager attributes ‘)0 percent of.the store’s business to advertising. -Purchase Radio runs ads on WGRO and WBUF-FM. as well as in The Huffah Hvening News. A small compact stereo can be bought for S250 at Purchase; the separate components for a full system start at- S450. The manager wifi generally discount the total price of a large system; an outfit whose components cost SXGO would lie cut anywhere from S60 to SIO0. There is generally 30-.1,1 percent mark-up over the wholesale price on merchandise, yet certain manufacturers dictate the prices of certain items. The Niagara halls Boulevard Purchase Radio store averages about month in total sales, it is a local chain offering local service (many other stores have to ship out for specific items). "People can come in and look around fill they want. They can lake it easy, we won't bother them." the manager said. Advertising important Tech Hi-Fi. also located on Niagara halls Boulevard in Amherst, carries the name of a large national chain of 47 stores, yet it is an independent franchise, not a branch store. Tech’s ovyner purchased the store at the chain's inception, and was consequently able to keep it independent. A Tech Hi-hi. employee said the store's clientele are "mostly young people." and that "about one in ten is over 35." The role of advertising is significant. The chain advertises nationally in Time and Newsweek. The �ranch ise advertises on local television and radio stations as well as in The Buffalo Evening News and The Spectrum. Tech sells compact systems for S260 and up. and component systems for anywhere from S400. Recently a Kenwood/400 receiver, two Ohn J bookshelf speakers and a B.S.R. 2310W turntable were salcpriced as a system for S2l )9. Stereo Coop Center Audio- Haven is a different breed of dealer. Located at 50 Hempstead Avenue, it is this University's stereo coop. It is open from 5 to l p.m. weekdays, and from ten in the morning to six at night Saturdays. "The fact is. we are off campus so students don't know about this place." said Audio Haven nanager Alan Perl. "Wo put up signs in Norton Hall to advertise but they're ripped down almost immediately. I suspect by students selling stereo equipment independently who arc in competition with us. Some people even think we sell hot stuff." he added The coop discounts Kenwood. Marant/, Technics. Garrard and B.S.R. products. Bose, J.B.L., L.S.S.. Phase Linear, and Aquaphase arc not often discounted, hut are available through Audio Haven at reduced prices.

Audio Haven also sells small appliances, sewing machines, typewriters, camera lenses, and cameras, all at a discount. "We charge a stripping fee plus 15 percent mark-up over cost, which also covers the sales lax." Perl said. The coop docs about S6000 per month in business, which jumps to S 10.000 around Christmastime. The store's manager thinks that will increase as students become more aware of its existence. ) , Wednesday, 24 March 1976 . The Spectrum .

MW /K for the program can only be termed regressive. In a letter sent to campuses across the state earlier this year, Buckley stated that, "To my mind, the use of food stamps by college students constitutes exploitation of the other young Americans of that age who are at work.” Buckley contends that students are. in effect, a group which chooses to be unemployed. This statement contradicts another remark in the Senator's letter which calls the decision to attend college "the best American tradition of self-improvement." It is difficult to understand how he can be referring in both cases to the same choice. Fraud, supposedly rampant among students applying for food stamps, accounted for less than one percent of the orogram's allocations last year, according to a report by the Jnited States Department of Agriculture to the Senate Agricultural Committee last year. Furthermore, Buckley's example of food stamp abuse by students seems intentionally misleading. In Madison, Wisconsin, 65 percent of the program's recipients were students, said Buckley. He fails to mention. however, that the University of Wisconsin at Madison alone accounts for 50,000 residents of the city at least a third of - * v Union organization of a union, and the administration had continued “talking,” the TAA held a successful strike vote and walked off the job.

They are made by the University through the campus services. office at Ridge Lea, 4230 Rm C. Any complaints about schedules should go there and not as a blow to the drivers. As to the fact that the Ridge Road drivers would pick-up and let you off where you wanted to is true. They were picking students up at certain points on campus but they were wrong in doing this. How do you expect to keep on schedule stopping every five feet to pick somebody up? There is aka a nutter of safety involved here. The prescribed bus stops which the University has established are at these places because they are the safest places to pick up and discharge passengers with the greatest efficiency. Any extra stops on campus would violate the school’s bus stop area and safety which is the most important issue. If we (the drivers) are caught making these unlawful stops by the University Campus Services or Blue Bird executives, we may loose our jobs because of this and worse than that, we may cause an accident by people caught between buses etc. As you can see safety is the main issue here. Each bus, depending on its route, is designated by a number shown on the front, back, and right side of the bus. These numbers go from 2-7. This number system was also made by the University. When a number 2 bus does not go to EDicott it will say O’Brian and Governor’s in the front of the bus. A key to this number system is posted at every bus stop. It takes three minutes to memorize it. Going to the proper bus stop in the first place and getting on the right bus will get you there in time. When you say sacrifice comfort and bring back,Ridge Road this is false. You are not sacrificing comfort, you are sacrificing safety. Technically, people should only be allowed on a transit type bus since in there you have something to hold on to.-First of all it is illegal to have anybody stand on a school bus. A driver can loose his license if he or she is caught. Ridge Road didn’t care about this. This is our reason for not having standees; don’t blame us for it. This is the law. Don’t blame the drivers for it. The part of that letter that’s really hurting us was the fact that you said that we deserted you. The only thing I can say is that a person has to live. So as you can plainly see we are just doing our jobs and following the rules set forth by the University. With your cooperation and understanding of the rules set forth by the University, together we will be able to insure a transportation so efficient as possible. Give us a chance and we will be able to work together in harmony. You can be assured of our cooperation in this matter and we hope that all pfoblems will be resolved as long as you can follow the regulations. Robert M.

You cannot truthfully say that “Student Association hadn’t gotten involved.” I don’t think that sit-ins or demonstrations are going to have any effect whatsoever on cutbacks or tuition hikes. These things have already been mandated, by the legislature. Mr. Kline’s admonition that “if we don’t do something now, we are lost,” is too late for any effect this year. We’ve already lost the fight for money. What we should do is identify those legislators who do not consider higher education a priority.

This academic year, perhaps obsessed with budget cuts, I find the avaricious tentacles of Library Services engulfing me in my joyful pursuit of enlightenment. Last fall 1 got a note from UGL stating that 1 owed S25 for a book I had not returned. The book had been returned a paperback listed at S3.95 long before receipt of the notice. I wanted to question the rationale of why a student should be ripped off $25 for the replacement of a $3.95 paperback. But I could almost hear the pedantic drone about purchase order, accounting, cataloguing, and inflation in general. However, a phone call sufficed to clarify this problem; the book was located, properly shelved. This week I received an ominous note from Health Sciences Library asking that I return an overdue book immediately, that fines were accumulating at the rate of $.25 per day, including book weekends. Fortunately, I had kept returns. But the copy number recorded by the clerk didn’t coincide with that of the allegedly missing book. 1 have yet to hear the outcome of this bizarre episode.

Friday night, the 19th of March, 1976, at 9:35 p.m., I was waiting for the next bus to Main St.; 1 was nonchalantly perusing today’s version of DoonsebUry, when I heard the sound of a motor vehicle. I turned to watch it. It was an edition of, as my roommate calls it, “Rumpus Security.” The car was traveling slowly, and as I watched its progress, my head, as it is wont to do, turned from left to right, along with the motion of the car. The car rolled past me, and then, stopped. My head, as if by magic, also stopped. When the car started going again, my head moved with it, again. However, this time my head was moving from right to left, largely because the car was backing up. It came to a stop, with the door right in frbnt of me. The door opened! One of the “Peace"” Officers got out. As he walked over to me 1 began to wonder what I d|d. He challenged me, asking: “Do you go to school here, kid?” I thought of saying something cook, like “No, V just tike to hang out in the tunnel cause that’s where all . the heavy carbon monoxide breathin’ action is, man...” My reply was a‘simple, but *. v . . effective; “Yeah.” - - ., . - - Joe I, am in j s&ovp r< &eia\ far LOOKS- non-student looks like me. into the gloom that Anyway as the car can only be described as EUicott’s tunnel, 1 wished the honcho luck in apprehending this criminal.

One part of the mob was my roommate, another his girlfriend, and a third was a girl who lives on my floor. 1 told her the story in detail, and she, after reflecting a bit, asked what would have happened had I not been carrying my ID.

I probably would have been taken somewhere, to try and prove my identity. /.ic. ■> Larry Furman fV FA7WR5 & mwrw Then the cop asked me for my ID. “Kid, I want to see your UB I.D.” I began to dig it out of the recesses of my back pocket, and I fancied that 1 heard him say: “NOW!

APPLICATIONS DUE MARCH 31st. �by Joy Clark Staff Writer Spccmiiii “The best center I've ever coached." “One of the most exceptional people I’ve ever met." No. these statements are not about Kareem, Wilt or even Sam Pellom. Carolyn Thomas, coach of the Buffalo womens basketball team and Clyde O'Malley, a guard for the team, used these words to describe Buffalo’s 6*2" center Anne Trapper who averaged ib.6 points and I 5.8 rebounds this year. Trapper, who will graduate in June, began playing basketball in the fourth grade because of her height. “I saw that it (basketball) was a game for a taller person.” she explained. In high school, she played volleyball Jtnd badminton as well as basketball. After graduating from high school, she went to work as a secretary, but didn't let her athletic talent go to waste. She joined the Tonawanda Shamrocks, a local Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) team. stayed with her this year. “It-look a lot for me to gel up for games." she commented. Her own attitude was frustrating her. and as a consequence, “there were only a few games that I really enjoyed,” Official's decisions Teammate Clyde O’Mally explained another cause of Trapper’s frustrations. “The referees picked on Anne because of her height.” she declared. When O'Malley complained to a referee about the number of fouls being called on Trapper, the referee replied that, because of her height, he “just had to assume" that she was responsible. Trapper acknowledged the prejudice on the part of the officials. “They always say they have to look out for the shorter player because I can lake care of myself." hut she added that she couldn't blame her hud games on them. «i£2k< : Statistics box .. • * - ' ' /C.t-7 'igr'' - •Vs?: 1 . * ■ Basketballer Anne Trapper puts size and skill to good use facility: Chess results at the Attica Correctional Horowitz 5-2.

All But many suspect that Trapper's comments about not having a good year are a hit loo modest Changing teams When Trapper enrolled at Buffalo three years later, she continued with the Shamrocks during lier freshman year. But the heavy traveling schedule was such an inconvenience that she. began to look for a way out of AAtf ball. As luck would have it. Trapper was a studehi’in one of Thonias’ classes and the coach asked hef if she played 'basketball. When Trapper said yek. Thomas asked her to join the Buffalo team, and Trapper readily agreed. Trapper had a little trouble adjusting Jo collegiate play during her first season. In the AA.U. there was more contact and the players were more competitive and skilled. ’On the collegiate level, players have different levels of skill consequently Trapper concentrated loo much-on what she was doing, rather than on the game. "I was thinking too much ,of what I should be doing and what the other players should be doing.” she explained. : ; — Injury jinx Trapper was bothered by g torn.cartilege in her and in the summer between her-sophomore and junior year, she underwent an operation to repair the cartilege. She spent'the falf lifting weights and doing exercises to build her knees back up. All knees, that hard work was wasted however."when she broke her ankle in the opening minutes of the first game of her junior year. Although disappointed about the injury, which prevented her from playing again that year. Trapper used the time to learn about coaching, something she plans to do when she graduates. She feels the layoff helped her, physically. "My knees were really bad and the lay-off was better for me." she commented. But being sidelined for a year hurt her attitude, she says. "I didn't participate, so I wasn't excited, except from a spectating or coaching point of view." According to Trapper, that lack of excitement • - , the loam's 10-5 record. She led the loam in scoring, rebounding and blocking shots. \i the Division II I rapper was voted one of the ten most outstanding players.

She’d be outstanding on any team." Alter graduation. I rapper will try to gel a coaching Job. since she is through play ing basketball. “This is it for me. I don’t have the physical or menial ambition any more." she said. "Basketball has been good to me. but I just reached my limit." Memorable experience Chess Club meets Attica The Buffalo Chess Club competed last Sunday in what was certainly its most interesting and unique contest ever. They traveled to Attica, New York to play inmates at the correctional facility located there. The winning and losing was hardly an issue, but the experience was unforgettable. The chess club sent seven of its regular members along with two people from Community Action Corps (CACI to Attica where they spend a full day checking and chatting with the inmates. Both groups were very enthusiastic about the games and it is likely that another tournament will be scheduled there next semester. Early uneasiness Hank Nesenoff. captain of the chess club, said that his team fell somewhat uneasy about playing chess with convicted murderers and rapists, but after just a short time, their nervousness succumbed to the friendly altitude and good chess playing ability of the inmates. Although Nesenoff expected to find the lew top notch players that are imprisoned at Attica, he was impressed by the inmates' overall facility with the game. “Everyone understood all the basics, ami none of them made stupid errors." said Nesenofl. lie added that one of the inmates told him that it was uncommon for the inmates to discuss different chess strategies such as the Nim/o-lndian defense. nol Despite the openness which pervaded the room the competition went on (there were no guards on hand), there were many precautions that where surrounded the arrangements of the visit. The chess club had to inform the Attica officials as to the number of people making the trip and the dale and lime of their arrival far in advance. Search When the team did arrive, officials were upset that they had not been told that a woman was purl of the contingent sent from Buffalo, and although she was allowed to compete, prison officials gave the chess club a slight reprimand for not warning them. Also upon arrival, the chess boards, players, and pieces were all thoroughly searched, making the club members not unaware that they were in a prison In spile of those procedures, the visit was a total success. The inmates were glad to gel the opportunity to play outsiders, and the chess club was grateful for the experience of visiting Attica. In fact. Nesenoff said that whenever the chess club plays other schools from now on. his team will spread the word in hopes of gelling other teams to visit Attica also.

College, were occupied by students protesting budget cutbacks as The Spectrum went to press'Friday.In a related event, a student here was arrested Friday afternoon in front of Hayes Hall. A small group of students had attempted to enter the building to give President Robert Ketter a list of anti-cutback demands, but it was closed by Security by the time they arrived. Sophomore Stephen Kline was arrested on two counts of disorderly conduct, and will appear in City Court Wednesday. Students occupied administration buildings at Buffalo State, Binghamton. Fredonia, New Paltz, Old Westbury, Purchase, Suffolk Community College, and Hudson Vally Community College last week. Demands The decision to occupy Grover Cleveland Hall at Buffalo State was reached ht a meeting of about 60 students there Thursday night. A member of the Buffalo State Alliance Against Cutbacks explained that the decision came following an anti-cutback-rally held last Tuesday in Albany, and after the administration buildings at Fredonia and New Paltz were occupied last Wednesday. The Buffalo State students were at first denied entrance to the building, but President E.K. Fretwell finally agreed to let them stay on the first floor. The Students have vowed to stay until their demands are * met. T • ’ Specific demands of the Buffalo State students were that the college abandon plans to convert certain,twelve-month positions to ten-month, which they feel would destroy many activities and services during the Summer Sessions; no cuts in financial aid; and no cutbacks at the campus Health Clinic. ■■ , State-wide alliance In addition, the Buff State students presented two demands made by the statewide Alliance Against Cutbacks: that amnesty and compensation be provided for students injured or arrested at Albany or at other anti-cutback actions, and that Governor Hugh Carey publicly apologize to those students; also, that the SUNY Board of Trustees hold open hearings at each of the four'University Centers (including here) to investigate what occurred at the Albany rally. The students also concur with the standing demands of the statewide Alliance: no termination of faculty, staff or University personnel and no forced layoffs by attrition: open admissions at SUNY .and at the City University of New York (CUNY); free tuition at SUNY and CUNY; an end to racism, sexism, ethnic discrimination, and anti-Semitism; administrations should not make but only implement policies decided by student-faculty-staff-community councils: and tracking systems should be ended in education and in jobs. Other standing demands are a cancellation of the state's debt payment system; elimination of tax shelters for banks and industrial corporations; a redistribution of thelhilitary budget; and no cutting of programs benefiting the poor or the working class. - ' ■ . Cut luxuries Students at. Fredonia took over the administration building last Wednesday, pledging to remain until demands were met. These included institution of a student-faculty committee to study cuts and a reconsideration of funding such luxuries as closed-circuit television and campus beautification efforts while programs are being cut back. The Fredonia students scheduled a meeting with two state , legislators Friday night to discuss theor positions. Students at Purchase, located in Westchester County near New York City, met with Chairwoman of the SUNY Board of Trustees on Friday. Elizabeth T. Moore. Moore said their demand for Trustees meetings at each University Center had merit, and that she would bring it up at the next meeting. About T50 students had occupied their administration building last Wednesday. Retaliation Administration officials at Old Westbury stopped handing out all Basic Education Opportunity Grant (BEOG) checks and student paychecks, apparently in retaliation for occupation of the administration building by 40 students there Thursday. Administration spokespersons said this was because the Bursar’s Office is in the occupied building, but the protestors insist that they are only occupying the fourth and fifth floors and that the Bursar’s Office is on the third floor. Demands of the Old Westhury students include; reversion to an earlier admissions system which favored Third World and older students; and continuation of year-round housing, child-card bilingual programs that serve the school's large Hispanic population. In addition, a student strike at Old Westhury has shut doWn most ? classes. Committees About 60 students are occupying the administration building at SONY Binghamton, and have been there since Thursday. Binghamtos’s to agreed President Clark has their demand for a student-faculty-staff-worker committee to oversee program and personnel decisions, although it is unclear whether that committee would be able to make official decisions. In addition, students sat in at administration buildings at Hudson Valley Community College and Suffolk Community College, but could pot be reached for comment.' The rash of building occupations came a few days after a rally of SUNV and CUNY students at the Capitol Building in Albany which received wide publicity and helped revive anti-cutback efforts throughthe two university systems. The SpECTI\UM Vol. 26. No. 66 Monday, 22 March 1976 State University of New York at Buffalo Analysis Ketter at forum tomorrow President Robert Ketter agreed to a Student Association (SA) request Friday afternoon to speak at a forum in Norton Hall tomorrow afternoon at 2 p.m. The* forum will be broadcast live on WBFO. The state budget approved Wednesday by the Legislature contained SS2 million less for the State University than was provided in this year’s budget. Campuses throughout the state face program retrenchments, layoffs, increases in tuition and room and board, and decreases in financial aid to individual students. At' the same time, the University of Buffalo is currently engaged in debate over the interim report of the President’s Committee on Academic*PIannin& which many fear will play a strong part in deciding which programs will be cut. The interim report has been criticised for singling out for criticism mainly those programs which can be called innovative, and those which benefit minority and working people. likely that the budget and the PCAP will It is dominate discussion at tomorrow’s forum. out that no dollar report"; values were conveyed in the But he adds that eventually, internal reallocations willy have to be made to move the University toward whatever final proposals are adopted. “1 think it would be foolish to claim that all Deans and Provosts are necessarily going to ignore the interim report -in calculating the budget reductions we are now having to make.” It is precisely this that the report will become that a measuring stick for the retrenchment worries so many of its critics. For although it will never be designated a “budget document,” the feport becomes one if only because people will use it as the only existing basis for the cuts. Another consideration is that the report will become a consideration in planning future SUNY budgets by members of the Central Administration in Albany, or by members of the legislature or the Governor’s staff. - — , Strong support In the weeks since assembled' faculty members 'voted “no confidence" in the interim report and Jo “reconstitute” the committee itself, both Ketter, and now the Faculty Senate Fxeculive Committee, have issued strong statements in support of the PCAP and Us report. As fast as faculty-criticised the report, so Ketter criticised them. After the no confidence vote February 27. Ketter said he would lake into account the small number of faculty present for the vote <150 in attendance dwindled to 103 by the lime of the tally), and would , do nothing until he had received advice front" the Faculty Senate executive -Committee. Immediately after the vote an unscheduled issue of the Hf/ntacr for the following Thursday was instated to keep the University "appraised' of the controversial events on campus." Ketter was present but silent throughout the • meeting. At the top of the special issue of the Reporter. was a question and answer commentary by Ketter of his response. Ketter said reaction to the report tyas predictable in that “those who did not receive favorable reviews have reacted more strongly than and more publicly. Simultaneously. I have others received- numerous comments and and letters which have been highly laudatory of the Committee and, its work." Few errors Kelter went on to say that the few instances of verified error in the report is surprising in view of its extensive nature, and that the program profiles, which have been most disputed, coincide in many eases with various accreditation reports or internal studies. As he has done all along. Ketter stressed the interim nature of the report. After the meeting. Senate chairman George Hochfield said, “Personally. 1 hope the Hxecutive Committee will repudiate the insult to Academic Planning,” referring to the vote. The letter from the Hxecutive Committee reaffirmed its confidence in the members of the PCAP, and simply asked it to go on with its next job by evaluating the interim report in the light of new evidence and criticisms that have been offered. This, the letter said, would resolve the doubt cast on the work by the “welter of counter-charges, and allegations.”' committee’s charges, The hxecutive Committee letter also stated that the interim report should not be the basis for short term budget cuts, and that revised versions be published without recommendations but purely as an academic document. Budget document? With the state budget waiting only for Governor Carey’s signature to become law, it is anticipated here that the PCAP report will become a "budget document.” or a guide for the cuts that will have to be made in the coming weeks arid months. The University needed a S6 million increase to maintain itself at the current level. It received a S500.000 increase instead. The committee did not approach its task from a budget point of view, according to Ketter. He points capriciousness ,>t Slate funding prediction :.'r handing down - along with the cuts at specific make it knows little about exceedingly difficult for the University to draw up institutions it — long-range goals. Ketter said in' a recent forum with graduate students Mi at his role in obtaining funds for the is . rigidly University circumscribed by this bureaucrat.. It is best, he said. Ip, Utait his efforts to lobbying wi'h legislators in the wnek or two before went on local the budget was passed. radio in the past week to mak@*|J|r case for greater financial support of public education. It is difficult to discern What, if- any. effect Ketter’s efforts had on the final University allocation. No help in sight v Attention now would nofmaljy focus on the state’s supplemental budget. But state legislators meeting with students at the Buffalo State College Campus Center Friday night said that there was little hope for restoration of any of the slashed items in the State University budget. State Senator Jess J. Present, R-Jamestown, told the students that the supplemental budget will not provide any more funds for SUNY. In any case, Ketter will apparently try to justify the academic planning committee's role even in the heated atmosphere of the budget crisis, (For one thing, it looks now as if the committee will definitely not be reconstituted, as was called for in the faculty vote.) Ketter has been trying to lay the groundwork for an academic plan for nearly five years, and he seems determined t6 accomplish it no matter, what the circumstances.. \ �n> r> t ' r > r� { * > � - Ketter forum The Student Association (SA) will present an open forum discussion with President Robert Ketter tomorrow afternoon in Haas Lounge at 3 p m. Ketter will continue to address questions from the University community on WBFO at 4 pm. The number for calling in questions is 831-5393. The questions may deal with proposed state budget cuts and how they will affect this University, or any other University matter.

This leads to a loss of confidence in the attitude of the bourgoisie toward society, he explained. “The pursuit of self-interest has dwindled into the pursuit of pleasure the Protestant work ethic has given way to existence for the sake of fun.” Lasch said.

He analyzed the “nonbinding marriage contract” to a full house last Wednesday night in a program cq-sponsored by the Speakers Bureau and Vice College. Lasch who is currently professor of History at the University of Rochester has accepted an invitation to teach in die Department of English at this University this summer. He has authored several books including the soon, to be published The Sociology of the Family. Lasch also contributes to New YorkReview of Books. According to Lasch, our survival is dependent on two factors the production of materials and food, and the reproduction of the work force. This is not just the propagation of the species but it also includes the mental development of the young, he explained. has been dissolved in the recent past by these outside influences. This has led to the perception of marriage as the “non-binding contract,” he'said. Much of what is wrong with modem marriage stems from what Lasch terms “romantic love complex.” Much marriage therapy consists of persuading disillusioned couples to make a more realistic assessment of life.

Antonia Brico Breaking male domination by Randi Schnur ArtsEditor If you missed the film about her life and work (mentioning both at once is alrhbst a redundancy), if you have never seen the articles praising her in Ms. Magazine, the New York Times and elsewhere, you owe it to yourself to learn about Antonia Brico at last. If the wonderful Judy Collins-Jill Godmilow film or any of the publicity Dr. Brico has received during her more than 45 years on concert stages has already reached you, you probably know enough not to pass up an opportunity to liear the conductor’s fascinating stories firsthand. Since everybody alive fits into one of these two categories, tomorrow night’s Student Association Speakers’ Bureau program will offer something for everyone. Antonia Brico, the brave and brilliant woman who has devoted a lifetime to breaking into the male-dominated world of professional music, will make her University debut in the Fillmore Room at 8 p.m. Brico began winning critical acclaim in 1930 when, at the age of 28, she became the first woman to ever to conduct the Berlin Philharmonic thunderous applause which carried all the way back to her home in California, where she was invited for her American debut only five months later. But the outrage of the musical establishment finally drowned out even the praise of supporters like Arthur Rubinstein and Bruno Walter, and by the end of the decade, her career had ground nearly to a halt. resulted in an invitation to open the 1974 New American Filmmakers Series at Manhattan’sWhitney Museum.

Currently, the Craft Center is open Monday through Friday. 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. In addition, throughout the year, special two, four and eight-week workshops in other crafts such as tie dying, candle making and batik are scheduled.

Registration continued to increase, reaching a high of 1100 students during the 73-74 academic year. Originally, funds from student activity fees paid for part-tune instructors salaries and supplies such as kilns and potters wheels, while funds from the Faculty Student Association (FSA) paid the salaries of the full-time employees. These two sources of financial support allowed the center to operate without charging a membership fee, so students only had to pay for their materials. this In fall, 1974, due to the administration’s dissatisfaction with centralized Craft Center was dual funding, the financial control of the so that FSA maintained all the records while Sub Board only issued monetary grants upon request.

The kiln, a type of furnace used to create the finished product from an item of modeled clay was originally operated by burning wood in early Chinese and Japanese pottery. Today it is commonly run by electricity or gas. Practical crafts In the early stages of the craft, people threw and hand built pots strictly for practical purposes. The pots and bowls created were solely used as containers for holding grain, food and water. Any artistic elements were purely coincidental and unimportant because the form for each item was developed from its intended function. The skills and knowledge necessary for pottery production were simply passed down through each family, thus contributing to characteristic functional styles for each isolated culture. Exchange of methods and ideas between civilizations was virtually non-existent. As methods of transportation improved, communication between originally isolated cultures developed. Man became more sure of his existence as a race so that his earlier concentration on the essentials of survival could be broadened and diffused. With continual traveling, trade developed so that cultures more proficient in certain crafts began devoting some time to the production of iteips for commercial exchange. Eventually, as competition in each area developed, decorative and artistic styles were added, sacrificing earlier practicality. Crafts as art Work with metals shows a similar history which began with the development of functional toolmaking, and eventually developed into the creation of bracelets, rings and other jewelry as we know it today. A look at the more immediate history of crafts reveals that as late as the 1940’s crafts were not recognized in their own right. Art was painting, sculpting, and drawing, only considered to be “fine arts” while crafts were labeled as hobbies and time-filling for example activities. New leisure time forced exposure to the European world of crafts due to World War II, and the prosperous era of the 1950’s in America all contributed to the beginning of the development of present day hand crafts. The Hippie movement of the 1960’s broadened the craft base established in the 1950’s, and interest in leather crafting, ceramics and weaving skyrocketed. Its philosophy promoted returning to nature, working with the hands, and creating for personal consumption, all as a rejection of the materialistic values which developed from commercialization and mass production.'-An appreciation for - — in 335 Norton Union —continued on page 8— Monday, 22 March 1976 The Spectrum Page three . . 1 �Cohen, Gould, Elson for IRC presidency The Intdr-Residence Council (IRC) will hold annual elections for officers on Wednesday and Thursday, March 24 and 25.

We would also explore the of a continuous possibilities by ambulance service run experienced and medically trained student volunteers. Along with these proposals, Renaissance has many other ideas to make IRC more responsive to dormitory student needs. As Treasurer and member of the Executive Committee of IRC this past year, I have helped direct day-to-day . operation. I have served as a voting member of IRCB, Inc. Board of Directors and am therefore knowledgeable with the workings of the businesses. As part of my duties as Treasurer, I worked with the administration serving on both the University Fiscal Review Board and the Campus Review Board as well as the Amherst Council. I have helped the WIRR expansion to Governor’s a reality this year through actions of the Finance Committee of which I chair. Serving as the link between the present and the new incoming administration, I plan to correct the inadequacies from the past, continue our valuable present policies and create new programs to enable IRC to advance to new endeavors rather than fall into its yearly rut, traditionally a totally new elected administration. In order for Renaissance to achieve its goals, it is necessary to have an administration that can Howard Cohen Renaissance development The of the with its Amherst Campus, expansion of dormitory living space, has greatly affected IRC. The organization must broaden its scope and work to establish favorable living conditions for the I recently quadrupled number of work together.

We would also establish a abilities. graduate student chairperson to handle the particular problems of Stuart Elson the highly invisible number of Genesis When someone hears the graduate students living in the initials IRC mentioned, a negative dorms. Renaissance intends to stress a connotation usually comes to greater degree of cooperation with mind. This is then followed by a scrounging up of the face and many wry comments. IRC should not have a reputation of being an uncaring, impenetrable organization run by a bunch of incompetents. The problems that IRC faces in order to become more efficient are not insurmountable, they just have to be given time and thought while being worked upon. The first step in this process is to enact mandatory office hours that will be kept. This way, someone with a problem or question can have it answered on the spot. Confiscated T.D. cards do not have to take a month to be returned. A long rigamarole should not be a mandatory step in the settling of student grievances. This is not to say that someone will be there to respond to you every hour of the day. That is impossible, and only a fool would argue otherwise. If one of the officers is not there, then the secretary on duty will take a message during the day, and I will get back to it. A dormitory doesn’t close at 5 p.m. every afternoon. I can get back to the student later that night. It is no problem to do so if you give a damn and are willing to do the COST LOW CHARTERS TO EUROPE! We offer all student services such as International I.D. cards, Body. Concerts, beer blasts and other parties or events are not that hard to sponsor if someone just bothers to find out what is really happening. IRC now has the potential to do a lot. We are a viably funded organization and now we are also valid student government. Student rights and services are things that must be upheld and defended, but the job of the next IRC president is clear. IRC should start returning the feepayers’ monies with events. The job of the next IRC president is to make it a true activities organization. To do this he has to work hard, use his imagination, and above all, be open and ready and accessible to all who wish to comment or a question. Eric Gould Aim week is great. It should continue. But the recent parties were poor as a result of bad scheduling and last minute publicity. In addition, I am in favor of rock concerts for next year. Secondly, is the idea of dealing with administration the forcefully. For example, many people say there is nothing we can do to prevent dorm rents and tuition from going up. This isn’t so. I would urge parents and students, by letter, not to pay their bill. Without the money the University couldn’t run. They would then be forced to roll back the increases. This idea may seem radical now but when you get your bill, you will think that it is sensible. This idea is similar to the IRC Food Service Boycott two years ago which resulted in Food down and backing Service reinstating one semester meal contracts. 1 will continue to press housing to install better cooking facilities in Governors. I also intend to make sure that no student has to live in a 40 degree room. 1 want additional heaters installed in those cold rooms or Housing may be faced with a class action suit. These are a few of my ideas. I want to hear some of yours. After all, IRC is your organization. If and hard-working it’s a knowledgeable person you want as President, I’m the one.

I will do this by improving its services so that students get their money’s worth. I also think a tougher attitude in dealing with the administration is a necessity if we are to have a say in decisions made which ultimately affect us.

The Allentown area probably has the largest numbers, there are several near the University. These “alternative” bookstores range from cooperatives to collectives to independent ownership yet they have one thing in common: small size generally allows for more assistance from employees and a more pleasant, personal atmosphere. •The first thing one notices about People’s Bookstore, 9 West Northrup Place, are the numerous posters adorning the walls. These colorful prints are not hung solely for decoration. They carry slogans of the beliefs held by the people who run the bookstore (“Stop the Solidarity in Chile!” Killing, / worker. People's Bookstore was started as an alternative to the regular supermarket-type of bookstore. It specializes in books with a •Marxist-Leninist view of communism. The shelves are stocked with books on Black liberation, labor history, women’s struggles, socialism, political economy, peace and detente. According to another worker, the store’s collection on working class and union history is one of the most extensive in Western New York. Also stocked are books on art, poetry and literature (mostly Soviet). Certain periodicals which are difficult to obtain locally are carried. The Daily World is available, as well as Political Affairs, Young Worker, Labor Today, World Marxist Review, Jewish Affairs and Freedomways. Many of the books in People’s Bookstore are imported from the Soviet Union. Certain Soviet-published titles can be bought at lower prices because of the cheaper cost of printing in the USSR. A hard cover two-volume' Sholokhav’s The Virgin Soil Upturned was only $4. Two of the most notable publishers represented in People’s Bookstore are the Communist Party’s International Publishers and the USSR’s Progress Publishers. Ownership unknown The question of who actually owns the bookstore was never answered. The store is staffed by volunteers- Two people are “in charge” of the store’s operation. One volunteer said that People’s Bookstore is run by a collective, yet the nature of the collective was not explained. It was understood that the in ownership is presently transition. The volunteers of People’s Bookstore would like to enlarge on their activities in the community. As more money comes in, the store plans to initiate Marxist study groups.

It was surprising to note a lack of literature in other related fields, though. This is due to the bookstore’s association with the USCP.

It is not human mistakes or human-flaws that are bad, it is the ignorance of our own mistakes and the amplification of our own human flaws in other people. We don’t like to show mistakes or flaws, so avoiding we avoid the commitments. In outside the realm of commitments, we feel secure the nitty gritties of life. But this avoidance eventually leads to feelings of alienation and apathy. When the illusion breaks down, we may become even or we can plunge into more bitter and cynical life by not being afraid to be human. In pondering too much what the others’ reactions will be, we deprive ourselves of useful experience. It is ironic that the illusion of infallibility and injiocence becomes a stepping stone for inconsiderate and undesirable actions. George Bernard Shaw once wrote, “It is a shame that youth has to be wasted on young people.” Our youthful vigor can encompass: both fun and constructive purposes to start with, awareness of our own personal relation to the world. Where does our waste go when we flush the toilet? Where dpes our water and electricity come from? How can I be an efficient consumer? If we do not attempt to even ask these basic questions, we will be at a loss to understand how our country operates and how each individual affects it. “The world” is not some abstract force that affects us innocent creatures. We all contribute in some way to make the world what it is. Let us not become cynical and irresponsible.

It started out as one of those modern, adult, well-mannered separations. It did not stay that way terribly long. I am not, as you recall, a great holiday season person. The relationship ended in early December, and was followed after a brief initial period by a horrendous nose dive. I do not handle depression well... which is as gross an understatement in this specific instance as you may ever see. But then, what do I know about how you or anyone else handles depression? The actual details are not of great importance, I suspect that all of us have been through mechanically similar situations at one time or another. One of artifacts of the situation, however, was that the woman involved and myself continued to work in the same place, as did the man that she began to spend most of her time with. Which I had surely known at the time of the original friendly separation, but had somehow completely blocked. (Sometimes I am not so bright.)

Jammal, Chairman of Graduate Studies, School of Architecture and Environmental Design, offers the following definitionsof these three areas: Environmental Design, Architecture and Urban Planning are related fields of study. Environmental Design is not a profession but a Held of study which addresses a complexity of interacting natural and man-generated systems which are necessary to initiate support and maintain^human activities. It is the principle part of that broad knowledge base necessary for the professions of Architecture and Urban Planning. v Both Architecture and Urban Planning are professional fields of study. They haVfe the characteristic practice of “rendering a service” to society. The practicing Architect is concerned with designing and generation of the built environment in response to performance requirements of human needs and behavior; using the techniques of the day in the context of prevailing societal institutions. The Urban Planner as a practicing professional shares similar concerns with the Architect but can specialize in other types of areas. Generally, he is not only concerned with the built environment, but also with the systems of human activities in that environment, the range of service systems which support structure activities and operation procedures which regulate and manage all of them. When he plans with and for the Urban Community,'he is not only attempting tp solve current problems, but he is also attempting to satisfy the future desires and expectations of the community by identifying courses of action which would minimize the recurrence or emergence of problems in the future. He is primarily concerned with change of time. > What is the Office of University Placement and Career Guidance? It is the Office where students can: Establish a placement file which can be used in job seeking 2. Provide information regarding full-time employment after graduation as well as listing part-time job listings. *3.. Offer career guidance for those who are not sure what career they wish to seek. The University Placement and Career Guidance Office is located in Hayes Annex C, Room 6 (831-5291). ' What is a Placement File?

The place I work is far better than lots of places. There is an openness and sensitivity that is rare and valuable. The lady in question is bright, sensitive and eminently likable. Not surprisingly, most of the people in such a place went on caring about her. The reality being that nothing had occurred to disturb their relationships with her. The depth of the change in my relationship with her, was however, impossible for me to ignore. Friends, it may be that guilt by association is very bad law and morality, but it sure as hell is an emotional reality. Which in itself is a very hard admission for an old line politcal radical/liberal which touches of late sixties hippiness to make. (Just what I needed, to feel guilty about my feelings again.)-Anybody associating with anybody who hurts me, hurts me. How’s that for a statement with several gaping holes that anyone who struggled through elementary logic will clearly recognize? Try it in a ven diagram and see what happens. So what does a nice reasonable and rational - sort of like rne do when it person becomes inescapably clear that I, excuse me, obviously I mean to say they instead of I ... . . . ... ... are behaving in a most irrational and there unreasonable way? ■ In addition to which, several ... even more difficult discriminations are going on involving a need to understand and control what goes on inside me. (Obviously it is mad to try and control the entire world of external things, so it. must obviously be more sensible to try and understan4 and control everything that goes on within ones’ head. Isn’t logic a wonderful tod?) Item: It is obviously unreasonable to start out feeling all right about something, and only later on discover that you are extremely hurt and furious. Item: It is not reasonable, rational or productive to have feelings about people when most of the situation is your fault... and since you are in control of everything that goes on inside you, clearly everything is your fault. Addendum item to previous item: Since the feelings of emptiness, loss and lack of acceptance are connected to history beyond any one individual it is emotionally dishonest to blame any one person for your immediate feelings. The answer to the initial” question of the previous paragraph is, in my own case, one gets even weirder than one was before. The equation clearly is too complex for solution in any absolute or practical terms, so you run. Eventually you go back to' the necessary staff meetings and you ride it out as best you can, bleeding somewhat much of the time through poorly formed scabs. You avoid the people who connect themselves most clearly to the two other people that cause most of the pain, because of the guilt by association, but then you chase your own tail by being guilty about doing things to people who didn’t do anything. And you'spend a whole bunch of your time trying to understand how you can be this angry and hurt by somebody you obviously don’t care about anymore? (The best answer to the last implied question wins as much free beer as it can drink in an hour. It may even being along whomever wrote it.) So, in general you wind up pulling back further and further, piling controls on top of controls, since ihere is no possible way to change the situation. And you hate a little perhaps, but mostly you wait. And wait. And wait. And prepare yourself to wait longer, much longer, for that constant reminder to go away. Actually it isn’t a constant reminder. For all you psych freaks, it’s a variable reinforcement schedule. Sometimes you go for a week or two without a jolt, deluding yourself into thinking you finally turned the corner, and then you turn a real corner and zap, there you go again. Being civilized is a loser, ladies and gentlemen, an unequivocal, consistent loser. But all us middle class intellectual types,’ in, case you hadn’t noticed, get paid off for not making waves interpersonally. Which leaves you the odd gory fantasy. , One last difficulty I might mention is the problem of deciding what is legitimate self-exploration, and what is self-pity. The best formula for that discrimination gets to join the earlier mentioned answer in drinking beer. me, having Enough, Cry Hold. Damn babbled on much too long as juts, yes? Anyway, there are several very selfish reasons why I came back. Writing this thing is cathartic, I get to umpire the annual The Spectrum picnic softball game, and how can anyone resist the opportunity to comment on the current political madness abroad in the land. There is a social reason also. A number of years back a series of very nice people did me a great goodness by working very hard to convince me i fell within the normal and acceptable range of human beings, even though f was a little weird. I was reminded by a new friend of mine, through friends of hers, that occasionally it helps to know that you are not the only person who struggles, gets lost, and is uncdftain about the wky out, much less the way home. Pain is part of being human and being alive. We all share it, most of us hide it. By doing it we choose to be alone, even though we need not be. Which, while somewhat crazy is still very human.

Presently, interest in well-crafted, individualized items remains, but the goals of craftsmanship will be threatened if profitable intentions take over the innocent beginning of the 1960’s. Those who’ve chosen crafts as their livelihood are finding mass production a valuable method, but at the same time, are unwilling to sacrifice the quality of the product. There is hope that because of the exposure created in the ’60’s, enough people are sincerely involved in crafts so that this conflict in philosophy between mass producing and the “one of a kind” idea win never result in the mass producers being the victors. To others, dabbling in a craft represents a fulfilling, enjoyable experience; Anne Martinchek, a member of the Creative Craft Center, and a novice in working with clay and the potter’s wheel expressed her enjoyment and satisfaction in working with her hands to create. When questioned about her desire to sell her work, Martincheck explained, so making and selling would become "The purpose is to create But if the feeling of creating was taken totally separate aspects away, selling must stop... selling would be secondary and experimental.” Another member of the Craft Center views his involvement with a kind of mind/body therapy. Selling clay as, “more than a hobby would require some compromising, but you still must please yourself.” He added, “I see ceramics more as a process than a product, the process bejng a matter of skillwith the potential of being art.” ... .. . - Co: Schussmeisters!!!

The Sewer Authority has lequested a permit to build a bulkhead 376 feet long, and 50 feet wide, parallel to the Niagara shoreline. A bulkhead is a structure designed to resist water pressure. This bulkhead would extend 40 feet into the river, which has already been narrowed in the last few years. The Urban Waterfront Advisory Committee has noted that just 20 years ago, the river was 3000 feet wide at this point, while it is now just 2000 feet wide there. The United States government now owns only 200 feet on this side of the International boundary line, and the proposed bulkhead would reduce this by 20 percent. This bulkhead, the UWAC says, will have a serious impact upon the wildlife and water level of the river. It is expected to be quite damaging to the migratory patterns of several species of fish, for fashion. They claim that these conditions arc .not currently being mfct. Every economic study undertaken in the past few years, the UWAC maintains, has shown environmental quality is one pf the most important issues in attracting new industry to the Niagara Frontier. They contend that the BSA has been guilty of “near total disregard” of the' environmental quality of the river area. * Public meeting The UWAC has urged the public to attend a meeting at the Buffalo Museum of Science on Tuesday, Match 30, at 7:30 p.m., which is being held by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and to express their opinions on the BSA proposals. They specifically urge people to request that the BSA be required to apply for their full amount of desired bulkheading at one time, rather than in smaller sections that do not appear to be as potentially harmful to the environment. Buffalo Mayor Stanley Makowski and. Erie instance. County Executive Edward Regan created the Urban Waterfront Advisory Committee in late 1975,for the More bulkheads purpose of protecting and improving both the local In addition to this particular bulkhead proposal, environment and its image in the nation.

The mayor and the county executive urged the While the UWAC recognizes the need for the construction of the Bird (Squaw) Island Sewage committee to act in a tough and forceful way, in Treatment Plant, which is necessary to improve the view of the fact that the environmental problem has water quality in the Niagara, they also hold that this suffered from “generations of neglect” and must be, taken care of in an orderly and economical exploitation.

Solomon said the savings on coaching thanks to Babus’ offer should make it possible for fencing to continue as a varsity sport. Babus currently serves under coach Jim Merchant as an assistant coach. In spite of a lack of practice thne, good equipment and understaffing, the fencers still somehow managed to complete a fairly successful season capped by a creditable fifth place finish at fencing the North Atlantic championships held last weekend at William Patterson College in New Jersey. Epee team places still one of ultimate extinction. Solomon explained that there is country, the three axed sports. But that vote took place before there was any knowledge of the free coach offer. “It is possible that funds could be reallocated to keep fencing,” Black said.

He added that since tournaments like the North Atlantics are open only to varsity teams, much of the incentive for Bull fencers would be lost. Solomon forecasted that a club team could not endure more than one season. Free coach no guarantee It is hard to predict at this time whether or not a free coach would result in the reinstatement of fencing. Director of Athletics Harry Fritz believes that a free coach could be very instrumental in keeping fencing alive. “It might help the situation along quite a bit,” observed Fritz who added that he could not foresee offhand any objections to such a move from within the Athletic Financial Department. Assemblyperson Bert Black agreed with Fritz that the free coach would help the fencing cause considerably, but he warned that it is no guarantee for maintaining In fact, the squad’s epee team finished second in the 13 team tournament, and only Solomon’s 5-4 loss against eventual champion Cornell stopped the Bulls from winning the epee competition.

CAC spokespersons said the workshop on “Military Spending and Full Employment” reiterated the fact that “a high level of military spending creates unemployment.” “An analysis of the years 1968 through 1972 indicates that the net annual job loss nation wide, when the military budget averaged about $80 billion, was about 840,000 jobs,” according to Michigan Public Interest Research Group figures. The B-l Bomber is a manned supersonic weapon system with nuclear armament capabilities, adaptable for use in conventional warfare. According to Defense Department estimates, the B-l would cost approximately $92 billion over a 30-year period. “Stop the B-l Bomber Meet Human Needs” was the theme of a conference-in Washington, D.C. last week that was sponsored by this Rational Campaign to Stop the B-l Bomber and the Cosdlfoon for a New Foreign Policy. The conference was attdhflTO by members of the Community Action Corps (CAC) aflcf the Graduate Student Association (GSA) and included workshops on “Military Spending and Full Employrmjnt,” “The Arms Race,” and lobbying techniques. The Western New York Peace Center and the Community Action Organization (CAO) were also represented', along with groups from 32 other states. CAC and Peace Center representatives Gary Cutler, Clyde LaGraves and Walter Simpson spoke with local Congressmen Jack Kemp, Henry Nowak, John LaFalce and aides to Senators Jacob Javits and William Buckley concerning the B-l Bomber and military budget issues. - Deception “Some states gained in employment because of military contracts during that time,” LaGraves said. “Texas gained most with about 133,000 jobs while New York’s net annual loss was approximately 426,000 jobs,” he reported. The workshop on “Military Spending and the Arms Race” revealed that the United States greatly outnumbers the Soviet Union in armament capabilities.

By definition, a “people’s bookstore” should include books for a wide spectrum of readers. People i Bookstore practices a policy of censorship through its omission of many works.

Everyone’s is one of the few places which can give University students some feeling that they are part of a college environment, and not a city. With simple decor, easy-going its workers, and solid collection, Everyone’s is a refuge from the of 'neighboring majority bookstores; there are no long lines and book order forms. There is no sense of being dn a book buying conveyor belt. Everyone’s Bookstore has been run as a cooperative since May non-profit As a 1 975. corporation, the bookstore is not owned by a single individual. Rather, it is run jointly, by a group of members. A membership fee of $5 yearly 10 percent entitles one to discounts on all purchased books. Members are also required to of the 12 to any belong committees which are in charge of the various aspects of the store. Committees are divided by fields of interest, such as social sciences, children, women’s literary arts, non-literary arts, religion, spiritual and occult books. Members may choose their committee. The work mainly involves stocking the store and suggesting new titles. An alternative to participating on a Main Street, committee is working in the store. There are presently 340 members. There are only two paid workers at Everyone’s. These full time coordinators have the final decision on ordering books, though committees have a lot of say on which books will be carried. If a committee sets a high priority on a certain title, chances are, it will be ordered. Everyone’s Bookstore does not seem to be having trouble with competition from larger bookstores. “We are doing very well,” said Jon Welch, a coordinator. “We arc filling a need for books that other stores don’t carry.” The selections in poetry, fiction, and political and social theory are particularly extensive. Everyone’s also orders books. colleges and Certain departments such as Women’s Studies, Tolstoy College and English have started ordering their texts at Everyone’s Bookstore. A small number of other textbooks are also stocked. The bookstore does not intend to expand their textbook business, however.

Poetry readings, study groups, speakers, and groups films, tutoring song-writing workshops are some of the possibilities for the future. on children’s workshop A literature is currently being organized. Plans for the workshop include speakers, films, displays bibliographies. Another and project is to offer lower priced books to non-members as well as to members. Although anyone can presently shop at Everyone’s, only fee-paying members receive the discount. When the bookstore’s five year loan is paid off, it may be possible for books to be made available at the same prices to members and non-members alike.

Enraged bybudget cuts, students sit-in Vol. 26. No. 65 State University of New York at Buffalo Friday, 19 March 1976 April 2 deadline GSEU threatens to strike by Fredda Cohen Campus Editor The Employees graduate Student Union (GSEU) has theatened President Robert Ketter with a vote to strike if demands by the G$EU j are not “satisfactorally dealt with” by April 2. In a letter to Ketter dated March IS, GSEU stated “Teaching Assistants (TA) and 1 Graduate Assistants (GA) at this University are faced with what you have acknowledged to be an ‘increasingly critical set of problems’ problems which your administration has done very little to alleviate. We can no longer accept your administration’s irresponsibility in these matters... In the event that GSEU’s demands are not satisfactorally dealt with by that time (April 2), TA’s and GA’s at this University will vote to stop work.” Approximately 40 percent of all undergraduate contact hours are conducted by TA’s. The letter was issued in response to a letter that Ketter sent to GSEU President Howard Kling which appeared in the February 26 edition of the Reporter. Ketter’s letter was published one week after three representatives of the GSEU presented a petition to Ketter signed by 350 TA’s and GA’s, plus gad itTonal support petitions carrying 3,000 signatures. Throughout that week, demonstrations and rallies were conducted on campus to express further student support. - Funding problems The five GSEU demands are a minimum salary of $4000 per year and a guaranteed tuition Th8 letter also questioned Ketter’s attitude upon issuing these budget requests. In a Itter to Graduate Student Association (GSA) President Terry DiFlilippo, Ketter wrote “I (do) not at all accept the notion that graduate teaching assistants [are] ‘overworked, underpaid and exploited,’ but rather [state] that in some instances there is ample evidence and documentation that some do not work at all.” GSEU argues that with this type of attitude, it is hardly likely to receive any increase. Regarding the second demand, Ketter said the restoration of personnel lines was outside his realm of authority, naming the New York State Legislature the waiver, the reinstatement of the 165 cut graduate lines, guaranteed funding for the required duration of all TA and GA degree programs, accident and liability insurance, and closer adherence to Affrintative Action guidelines in TA and GA hiring. Calling the increased stipend provision a problem that is “simply one of funding,” Ketter claimed that the budget requests of his administration have included increased financial support for graduate students.

Students at Purchase and Fredonia refused to leave until demands for an open hearing with Chancellor Ernest Boyer were met. Fiscal committees in the state legislature recommended an additional $3.1 million cut in the SUNY budget. Approved by the State Senate Tuesday, and now before the Assembly, the budget includes an additional $210,000 reduction at this University. The student protestors at Purchase, who still occupied the administration offices at press time, say they will remain despite a threatened court injunction which would require them to vacate the building. The Purchase “Fight Back” Committee said in a statement that, “it was necessary to take decisive action because the Board of Trustees has not responded to student appeals for a dialogue on the controversial tuition hikes and budget cuts.” Their key demand calls for an open hearing With the Trustees at a SUNY campus, to discuss < the various grievances at length. 300 participate John Angelroy, a spokesman for the Purchase protestors, indicated that 300 students participated in the initial building takeover and said about 300 more subsequently joined the original group. In their statement, the Purchase “Fight Back” Committee called for a solidarity coalition of students and workers across the state, whose education and job lines are being “slashed, their voices going unheeded in the decision-making process.” .Angelroy said that the seige group met with little resistance (only three people were in the building when it was occupied). “Many of the Purchase faculty;” he added, “sympathizes with the students’ demands , and joined the sit-in.” Apparently, last Tuesday’s Albany demonstration has reignited student protests at individual campuses. The Fredonia students called for a general strike Thursday for the restoration of cuts in the SUNY budget. TTiere are unconfirmed reports that students at SUNY Binghamton are also planning a general strike. New Paltz has become active in the “stop the cuts movement”; a large sit-in demonstration was heir) Wednesday, March 10. Details of the Fredonia protest were unavailable. “The protests have drawn attention to of the situation, but what is really needed is a united*R©trtTepresSntative of all the colleges in the State University and City University of New York (CUNY) systems,” said Andrea Torriccc, a spokesperson for the Purchase “Fight Back” Committee. SUNY Central administration member Clifton Thome provided some insight into how the Board of Trustees views the “stop the cuts” fight. Thome said many legislators were upset over the destruction and violence committed during last Tuesday’s demonstration in Albany, adding that much could have been accomplished but that the demonstration’s good intent was overshadowed by the mayhem. ' Two arrests Violence mars protest Albany against budget cuts by Laufe Bartlett Campus Editor Violence, property damage and two' arrests marred Tuesday’s student protest in Albany against cutbacks in the State University (SUNY) and City University of New York (CUNY) budgets. Ten to twelve thousand SUNY and CUNY students gathered in the state capital to march around the Legislative Office Buildings in a demonstration co-sponsored by the CUNY United Student Senate (USS) and the Student Association of the State University (SA&). The event was planned as the culmination of SASU’s Annual Legislative Conference. The students beat back Capitol Police and SASU and USS marshalls, storming the Legislative Office Building and Capitol entrances. Smashing through the Capitol’s glass doors, the mob shattered display cases containing a Bicentennial exhibit of American military flags. Other demonstrators vandalized the Justice Department .Building, pulling out several telephone wires. Angry CUNY ‘ i < I . ■. . Demonstrators marched through the building chanting, toward, the “Carey, you liar!” Governor’s office, but he had left the building for safety. The peaceful crowd on the Capitol steps was apparently riled to violence by speakers who called for militant action against state budget cuts. Some of the speakers identified themselves as members of the national Revolutionary Student Brigade. The violence erupted before most of the scheduled speakers, including USS president Maynard Jones and SASU President Bob Kirkpatrick, could address the crowd. About two-thirds of the demonstrators were students angered by the City’s most-recent $36 million cut in the system’s financing, and state legislation offering little additional aid. According to one Assemblyman, the most liberal plan being considered by the legislature only calls for matching state funds with rapidly diminishing City funds. Over 100 busloads of CUNY students joined 1500 students from SUNY Albany, 1000 from SUNY Binghamton, 800 from New Paltz and hundreds of others from almost all SUNY’S other universities and community colleges.

The release of funds will allow the pharmacy to purchase new supplies and clear debts left in limbo after Ketter blocked release of the funds in January. Ketter had said that funds would be frozen until Sub Board I agreed to transfer the license. The conflict between Sub Board and the University over control of the pharmacy was fought to a stalemate, according to Sub Board Health Services Director A1 Campagna, because “they (the administration) can’t do it without our money, and we need the building.” Sub Board retains “control” of the pharmacy despite the transfer of the license, according to Campagna. He said that because Sub Board owns the fixtures and the drugs it gives them control of the pharmacy’s services. Long-term agreement The transfer of the license to the University was a necessary consolation in order to get the funds released, said Campagna. He felt that if funds had not been released when they were, the pharmacy could have lost its credit with the drug companies that supply it. The School of Pharmacy internship program is fully operational Campagna said. The administration has agreed that the pharmacy does indeed serve ... has been a valid educational purpose, Campagna said, and it recognized as having teaching potential” both for patients and for pharmacy students.. The School of Pharmacy and Dean Michael Schwartz assist in running the pharmacy. The students who serve internships under the presiding pharmacist will learn the trade by keeping medication profiles on patients and in actual dispensing of drugs. Campagna said he hoped that the final details of the long-term agreement now being negotiated between the Administration and Sub Board will allow the pharmacy to “operate with a minimum of politicking and other outside influences.” “ —Vazquez Faigo dorm Small food coops thrive by Bob Rose Staff Writer in;' damn lazy to cook desserts,” calling Bartikofsky.

Most people have probably heard of the Polar Bear Club, that hardy band of adventurers who brave freezing waters for the sake of a swim on New Year’s Day each year, but few have heard about another group of stalwarts who show just as much, if not more, spirit and courage, the Lombas Association. Every year, for the past five years, when the full moon of March appears, the Lombas Celebration has been held in Cazenovia Park to commemorate its arrival. The traditional drink of Lombas is six shots of whiskey and six beers, and the traditional weather is terrible. This year was no exception. At Tuesday night’s celebration, it was the consensus of those present that the snowy conditions were almost as bad as the storm which hit the park during the second gathering of the faithful merrymakers, l?ut the party went on, nonetheless. Finest, cheapest ."c Joe Kaczfnarczak, one of the founders of the event, noted that the attendance at thiS year’s Lombas was down from previous events; but he attributed' this to 'the fact that a number of members of the association had to Vbtk that night, and there'were also a few who' attend out-of-town schnpls and did not make it back. ' As a result of 'this, only two bottles Of the “finest, cheapest whiskey available” were purchased, as opposed to a record five bottles last year. The participants gathered at their regular corner in South Buffalo at about 6 p.m. and proceeded to march over to the park, which is five blocks away. Then they strolled down the path to the Stone Bridge, the actual site of the celebration. The Stone Bridge used to straddle Cazenovia Creek, but a deepening of the creek as part of a flood control project many years ago made it a bridge over dry land. The 20-foot structure is now used only by the local, young drinkers, including the Lombas Association, who find it ideal for their purposes. " Spirited craziness The spirit of Lombas is that of brotherhood and craziness, as exemplified in the mixing of whiskey and beer. The minimum requirement of six shots and six beers still provides a challenge for the hardiest of members, and several participants have been known to experience a bit of nausea during the festivities. These people usually have decided not to renew their membership the next year. Two years ago, during the height of the streaking craze, two fellows decided to streak the local convent. About 20 minutes later, they returned to the park, exhausted but happy. However, they have since declined to repeat their adventure. Kaczmarczak is not sure how long the Lombas tradition will continue, as some of the members of the association have already married and more are planning to, but he and the other founders are determined that Lombas will continue for as long as that full moon continues to shine in March, which should be a long time.

It’s planned that way. Tell an airlines rep you’re planning a trip to Europe and talk is immediately frank and jabberwocky discarded trotted in. If, beneath the morass of obscure rules and jargon, your ticket pusher knows where to find the bargain basement fare, he won’t let on. This means you may inadvertently pay three times as much for your flight to Europe as the person sitting in the plane seat next to you. - To protect your life savings, here is a rundown on plane fare economics for travelling to Europe this summer: Standard fares: Standard fare flights overseas will make poverty your standard fare for the rest of the trip. These fares are always the most expensive and primarily designed for businessmen who aren’t picking up the tab anyway. For instance, a round-trip ticket from New York to London, purchased during the heavy summer tourist seasons, costs a whopping $767. That price tag is immutable; all major international airlines, with the exception of maverick Icelandic. Airlines,, are legally required to charge exactly the same fare. Youth fares: Those high fares have emptied a lot of planes flying to Europe. So in an attempt to lure aboard young passengers, the airlines recently revived international youth fares, touted as a savings bonanza for anyone under 22. Unfortunately, youth fares easily win second prize for the worst deal around. Round-trip youth fare from New York to London, leaving the U.S. during the summer, costs $465. to Compare that price of 5410 Icelandic’s youth charge and Air Canada’s charge of $376 for the same trip. Although Icelandic and Air Canada youth fares are reasonable for people planning lengthy stays in- Europe there are better up to a year to be had. bargains APEX: A favorite with travel agents, the Advance Purchase Excursion Fares (APEX) are — - ■ , ■ j designed for people planning an European adventure of 22 to 45 days. APEX flights are available to anyone regardless of age, but require some foresight. /Unlike youth or standard fares, you must shell out a non-refundable deposit of 25 percent of the price of your ticket to reserve a seat, and pay the full fare no later than two months before takeoff. the major Once again, international airlines are edged out of the price game by (CPS) is “Europe expensive,” intones a recent travel blurb in Mademoiselle magazine. “A realistic spending figure for almost everyone over 21 is $25 to $35 and even that doesn't buy luxury.” A budget like that may not buy luxury, but if you have the bank balance of most students, it’s guaranteed to buy a very short trip overseas. Although Europe on five bucks a day may be the smoke of old pipe dreams, there’s - — no need to kiss a small fortune goodbye. The trick is: check out your bargain basement travel options before you go Your best bet for a cheap summer in Europe is to cash in on your student status. Students are a privileged class in Europe, and the way to insure terrific deals on train and plane fares, restaurant and hotel bills and theater and museum admissions is to lay down $2.50 for an International Student ID Card. To get an application for your card, write to the Council on International Educational Exchange (C1EE), Student Travel Services, 777 United Nations Plaza, New York, 10017 and ask for their free booklet. The 1976 Student Travel Catalog. Eurailpass Icelandic. Although the standard APEX summer fare from New York to London costs $402. Icelandic charges only $381. Travel Group Charters: A better bargain than APEX flights can be found in Travel Group Charters (TGC). Under this system, organizers of TGC flights sell seats to the public at large, provided the, purchaser buys his ticket, 65 days before departure and is prepared to leave Europe on a specified <fate. Cancellation clauses for charter flights are complex. Y6ur best bet is to purchase some charter flight insurance through your local travel agency. Your policy will protect you from losing your ticket money if either you or the charter organizer bows out of the deal. TGC prices vary slightly from organizer to organizer, and may also go up to 20 percent higher than the minimum price quoted, depending on how many seats the organizer manages to sell for your flight. Minimum TGC summer fares for New York to London, for flights ranging from a couple weeks to 10 months, hover around $333. Information on TGC’s can be found at any travel agency (travel agencies, by the don’t charge for their way, services). Two national travel agencies which cater specifically to students and fiost numerous TGC flights are the Student Travel Services, operated by the Co ncil on International Educational Exchange, 77 U.N. Plaza, New York, New York 10017 and the National Student Travel Bureau, 21 IS S. Street, N.W., Washington D.C. 20008. Affinity Charters: By far, the best way to get to Europe is on an affinity charter flight arranged through your university. Under —continued on page 22— For years, the touted way to travel cheaply has been via a Student Eurailpass. The Student Eurailpass entitles you to two months of unlimited second-class train travel in Western Europe (excluding Britain) for $180. To get one. you need an International Student ID and must be under 25. Eurailpass is a good bet if you plan to hit a lot of countries in a short time, but there are other waysto save train fare. If you’re under 21, an economical way to travel is by signing up for the Rail-Europ Junior, available in Europe. This is not a Eurailpass, but a $ I card which gives you 25 percent now costs a whopping $ 140.

Before the debacle, in Vietnam, the American presence in the Pacific, as a result of Japan's defeat in WW1I, and our “colonial" exploits in the late.19th century was considerable. The Japanese seemed content to remain under the American “nuclear umbrella." maintaining a tiny, but highly professional “self defense force.” But conditions here have .not remained static. The nature of our withdrawal from Vietnam has left our allies with doubts i the strength of American about commitments made years ago, while American economic conditions undergo draqiatic changes.

United we stand by David Slive Students across the state have finally begun to take decisive action against proposed cuts in the St;ate and City The main question confronting our nation is the following: Should the individual liberty of big business continue to govern the people or shall the liberties of the people govern the individual liberty of big business? As Abraham Lincoln once so eloquently said, a house divided against itself cannot stand; it must all become one thing or all the other. But according to the conservatism of Irving Kristol, the liberties of the common man are to be irrevocably subjugated to the entrepeneurial liberties of the favored few. That is truly a flimsy, crumbling house. HovfeveV this is difficult to detect for the following feason: the term, individual liberty, appears to denote the liberty of the common man to pursue the good life; whereas its veritable signification is not the liberty of the common man to be free from fear and want, but rather the liberty of the entrepeneur to frequent the market as a means of randomly deriving ever greater amounts of private profit. Whereas the former is a positive conception of liberty, the latter is negative that is, one denoting an absence or minimal amount of governmental restraint. The Square Deal of Theodore Roosevelt, the New Freedom of Woodrow Wilson, the New Deal of Franklin Roosevelt all employed the power of the national government as a means of subjecting the entrepeneurial liberties of big business to, the yoke of the legitimate rights and interests of the common man. As such, each exerted a democratic control over the state apparatus as a means of advancing the freedom of average individuals, be they members of the work force or independent small entrepeneurs. That is not to say however, that the extension of the national governing authority over business has always been unblemished or thoroughly infallible; for that has hardly been the case at all. On the other hand, present and past forms of authentic'ineptitude do not constitute a valid criterion for rejecting this eminently democratic concept and practice namely, government regulation of big business in the interest of the University (SUNY AND CUNY) budgets that, if passed, would ' massive signal retrenchment, in public higher education. Even more significant is that they have the support of diversified groups within SUNY and CUNY, such as the United University Professionals and the Civil Service Employees Association, who are well aware of the crisis situation that now threatens every area of the two systems, The importance of Tuesday's large student gathering at the Legislative Buildings Office Albany in and the occupation of central administration buildings Wednesday at two state campuses is that actions like these call public attention to the seriousness of attacks on education. Parents - with children who may attend a state or city college within the next ten years, and who may not otherwise realize that by then, perhaps they won't be able to afford it or the - quality of the programs won't be worth affording, might decide to join in the appeal to restore slashed tax dollars to education. Additionally, legislators who themselves oppose the cuts have a stronger case to defend if their constituents physically prove that they feel strongly about the issue. The people of this University must realize that the cuts recommended for the budget constitute a major crisis involving every individual, department and service on this and every SUNY campus. There is little time to save the quality of education in this state from suffering a crippling — setback. Students, faculty and employees from several state common man. For past deficiencies can only be surmounted by a renewed and reinvigorated form of federal regulation of big business activity. And in matters such as this, the following must by all means be noted; The equal opportunity of being subjected to big business' freedom of contract and enterprise does not constitute the equality of human rights, nor their supremacy when experiencing conflicts with rights of property, which Thomas Jefferson bequeathed, and Abraham Lincoln reaffirmed, as the immortal posterity of -their peddle. The Constitution is a malleable instrument of government; it does not, to employ the phrase of former Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, ordain Mr. Herbert Spencer’s Social Statics into the impenetrable realm of an eternal verity. In addition, its due process of law provision’ cRfes not stipulate fKer Economic form of private property which must by right irrevocably govern the nation. For that is a the nation. For that is a matter of the philosophy interpreting the preeminent ideal of America itself: life, liberty and the prusuit of happiness. Moreover, such a form of conservatism does not really serve as a staunch bulwark either of social welfare of small business activity, Pretending to accept the extension ofthe welfare state as an abstraction, it just happens to merely denounce its practical and palpable embodiment the liberal achievements of the Great Society itself. the independent Playing upon entrepeneur’s legitimate distaste for ineffective manifestations of big government regulation, this conservatism’s individual liberty of unregulated corporate price-inflation sires' an even more distasteful result: diminution of the average citizen’s purchasing power, and hence the magnitude of the retail market itself. Hence equating • the liberties of the small entrepeneur with the Main Street Republicanism of a bygone Taft, Harding or Coolidge era is no longer either in the interest of Main Street or the interdependent economy of the nation or world itself. To conclude; Although such a form of conservatism may very well conserve the wealth and power of Theodore Roosevelt’s malefactors of great wealth, it certainly does not tend to conserve or protect the rights and interests of the the sustaining indefatigable common man of depositories triumphant American democracy. — — colleges have taken the step from rhetoric to action.

With a body as sleek as a race horse that extends nearly six feet high, the 32-year-old lead dancer of the renowned Alvin Ailey Dance Company slices the air with her long sinewy arms and legs in the most graceful Whether possible for everyone to do anything." She also says that if a person really wants to perform, "it is very difficult to stay in a protective situation like a University up until the age pf 22." Doit "Dancers are breaking into the dance scene earlier and earlier," she commented. Her advice to any terpsichorean hopefuls is simply to go out and dance. Jamison started her own career in her native Philadelphia at the tender age of six. Since then, she has spent afmost every year of her life taking dance lessons, studying with such greats as Marian Cuyjet, Anthony Tudor, Madame Swoboda and Vincenzo Celli. However, when she thinks back to her early years, she can't remember exactly when she decided td, devote her career to dancing. "Did you know what you wanted to be when you were six years old?" she asked. 1 ■■ It was Agnes de Mille, one of the best choreographers in America (and niece of Cecil B.) who convinced Judy to come to New York in November 1974 and make her professional debut in Ms. de Mille's The Four Marys. 'That's the only way to start dancing in New York at the very top," Jamison said in a December 1975 interview — way imaginable. Judy, as she prefers to be called, made with her debut as teacher/performer on this campus last Monday evening in Clark Hall Encore American and Worldwide News. before a class of 40 dazzled dancers and an audience of 25 even more spellbound spectators. Her appearance, sponsored by the UUAB Dance and Drama Committee, was the first in Buffalo since she starred with the Ailey troupe at Kleinhans Music Hall two years ago. Extraordinary She joined the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater (now called the Alvin Ailey City Center Dance Theater) in 1965 and has been with the company ever since. Other top Ailey dancers include James Truitt and Dudley Williams. Commenting on Jamison's talents in the Encore American and Worldwide News article, choreographer Alvin Ailey said; "I respect and admire her for her compassion and her beauty as a dancer. She has musicality, discipline and taste marvelous taste. Above all, Judith is able to justify movement .. . She is, of course, an extraordinarily gifted dancer, but another extraordinary thing about her is her capacity for growth. She is always learning. I love her, we all love her." Indeed, Judith Jamison has been blessed with an exceptional ability to transform movement into sheer magic. Asked how she feels when is alone out there, dancing, she said the feeling is like that of any person who is creating a gradual building up to a climax and then "WOWI" When Judith Jamison steps onto the floor, she looks like she's having the time of her life. both she and She's doubly lucky then her audiences love everything she does. Horton technique Jamison's main objective in conducting the two master classes was to teach various movements using the "Horton” technique, a method that builds off the fundamental pile and relies heavily on lateral and flat back positions. "You need a back made out of iron" to do these exercises, she said. If the Horton technique requires supreme muscle and breath control and a body as elastic as rubber, Judith Jamison makes every movement look as easy as walking from point A to point B. For the dancers in the class, the abrupt contracting and flexing motions seemed to strain every muscle in their bodies. For Jamison, they came off smooth and fluid, light and airy, like the motion of a single leaf floating through space: Jamison believes that all people have it inside them to dance but do not all tap their potential.

American critics hail Truffaut's worst him * • * * riMp It was inevitable that Francois Truffaut would eventually make an utterly pointless, horribly frustrating movie, and equally inevitable that most American critics would fall in love with that film the minute it came out. Thus,, we now have The Story of Ade!e,H, a cinematic treatment of the journals of Victor Hugo's mad daughter, Adete. The film opens in 1863 as Adele arrives in Halifax, Nova Scotia, at the age of 19 or so, searching for her true love, a British lieutenant named Pinson. In great detail, the film follows Adele's incredible obsession with the i<Jea of marrying the unvyilling playboy. She writes him endless letters, hounds him continually, breaks up his engagement to a Halifax socialite, and oven sends out announcements of her own imaginary engagement and wedding to Pinson. She scorns normal friendships with a number of people in Halifax, including a lonely bachelor who runs the local bookstore (and sells her sta gger jng amoun t S of writing paper). Not-so-magnificent obsession For Pinson'is her obsession, an obsession which apparently started several years earlier in Europe. Although Pinson is-an utterly amoral individual, one is tempted to pity him for being harassed by this extremely persistent mad woman. Adele even follows Pinson to Barbados when his unit is transferred, despite the fact that he has married in the meantime. (Her pursuit is funded by her unwitting father, who keeps sending her money in the vain hope she will return to France.) In Barbados she goes totally mad, roaming the streets talking to herself, seemingly seeking a non-identity. A native woman takes pity on her and finally arranges to accompany her back to France. An epilogue tells us that Adele was put in a private clinic in France, that she played piano there, and that her death passed relatively unnoticed in 1915. The film achieved the notable effect of getting the Buffalo Evening News and the New York Times to agree on one thing that this was Truffaut's best yet, that it is a staggeringly good view of a woman gone K mad. - -- Off the boat As happens quite often, the newspaper critics have managed to entirely miss the boat. The film might be Truffaut's worst to date ("might be" because this reviewer hasn't seen all of them). Truffaut gives an entirely alienated view of Adele. Is she crazy because of Pinson, because she is Victor Hugo's daughter, because she is a European woman living in the nineteenth century, because her sister had drowned several years before, or perhaps because of some childhood trauma? Truffaut never even tries to tell us. We are never given any background for Adele's present condition, —continued on page 12— "i QUALIFIED COUNSELORS are to answer your questions.

By the dose of Martin Scorsese's brilliant and unsettling new film, Travis is still hurtling through the unsteady streams of city traffic, shuttling back and forth between the rich and the unbearably raunchy: but he is no longer just a violently idealistic nonentity. A cold-blooded, half-conscious killer of ,f v tx/ J i 1? uhii I JtH pllb /ill Qb thieves at\d pimps, he has become an odd kind of folk hero the urban cowboy, the self-appointed vigilante who, in mowing down street criminals, becomes one himself. His "heroism" is of the most — — j , — ambiguous sort, but he is praised by newspapers and frightened citizens just the same. Travis spies on and pursues Betsy, the intelligent young aide to a presidential candidate (the uncrossable space separating their worlds is invisible only to him) because she is, quite simply, the most beautiful woman he has even seen an earthly angel with whom he sense some crazy affinity, a being whom he knows is different from the "scum" spilling out of every other corner of the city. She cots him off less than ten minutes into their second date, leaving him to conclude, of course, that she is just as rotten as all the because, paradoxically, his rest translation of "an evening at the movies" into "two hours of skin slick" insults her right out of the friendship. — off-handed authority he brings to all his roles.

Taxi Driver is an altogether stunning film. It's playing right now at the HOliday and Boulevard Mall Theatres. See it. 'All Screwed Up' Everything has its place, nothing is in order by Mike McGuire Campus Editor "Everything Has Its Placi, and Nothing is in Order" was the original translation of AH Screwed Up's Italian title, and it was a perfect summing-up of this excellent first film by Lena Wertmuller, just released in the U.S. The film concerns a group of young Italians who arrive in the industrial city of Milan from the country, and who meet by chance. They end up living together in a tenement stuck anachronistically in the middle of the city's financial district. Over the course of about two years, the group of once-idealistic young people adapts itself to the rat-race the society offers as life. Some become crass, some go crazy, and some are crushed by what must be confronted when there is too little pie and too many people wanting a piece. There is Adelina, who is a shy, tradition-briented country girl when we first see her leaving the Milan train station. As the story progresses, her hair gets continually shorter and more stylist as she gradually becomes a shiny, plastic Big Town Girl. By the end, her hair is short and dyed red, and she can only be the old Adelina with great ij. t ' ? effort. rV \si ’ * : c - High productivity Then there is Sante, a sad-eyed man who marries the Prodigal Sun girl of his dreams, and finds himself the father of seven children in two years. To support them, he must change jobs constantly in search of higher pay, at times work two jobs, work in hazardous occupations, and, in his spare time, try to hush his babies so that their crying won't upset his neighbors. Sante finally is drive to do no-questions-asked work for a local Fascist, and ends up (rather poetically) by being caught holding the bomb. He is hustled off to jail; and one is left to wonder what becomes of his wife and children. any of them. The film ends with him working irv a kitchen, with little hope left. The people live rent-free in their tenement despite persistent attempts by the city to evict them and put up luxury apartments. A woman named Biki has set up the financial arrangements that keep the tenement running: In addition to his or her share of expenses, each person has to pay extra for such amenities as using the laundry room, having overnight guests, watching television, drinking coffee a parody of treating life as a commodity to be — Insecurity Sante remarks at one point that raising a large family was never a hopeless undertaking in the farm village he grew up in. While some of the kids might have to rob local merchants for fruit or fishermen for fish, and while they might have to dress in rags, there was never any question of their starving. A friend and neighbor, Charlotte, asks him why he doesn't go back there. Sante replies that the trip would be hard on the young children and his wife and that it would cost too much, and then sadly adds that the country has probably changed too/since he left it. Carlette is in love with Adelina, but can never quite get his material situation secure enough for her to marry him. He goes through several jobs, but finds that he cannot do much more than barely keep his head above water in bought and sold. The film comes off as a tragi-comedy; the tone is light even while the underlying reality is quite grim. Wertmuller assaults the senses with a musical score, richly constructed scenes and fast cutting. At one point, we see workers doing their job, seemingly slaughterhouse choreographed to the score. (The scene is vaguely reminiscent of a film by our own Hollis Frampton.) Wertmuller's style is somewhat disjointed; the film is more a collection of interrelated sequences than it is a narrative. This is a fascinating and enjoyable film, yet one that will horrify you once its implications sink in. It deserves to be seen.

And they all understand, far more profoundly than anyone else did. the essence of Thurber as an artist, as well as where he went wrong as a person. Between the lines you can hear plaintive moans, "Would that he had managed his life as well as we could have managed it for him..." The reason I have my spleen unhplstered is npt to aim a blind sweep at the whole institution of literary criticism. What does upset me is the tidal wash of vain, selfsuff icient second guessing that inevitably comes out in this Mpfl of,circumstance; It's also appropriate in that the New Yorker, at its that worst is a prime bastion of this sly elitism same New Yorker that Harold Ross, with the non pared help of Thurber. Robert Benchley and E B White among others, built into an institution of - ; - clear-sighted, insightful journalism. I can't cop to that perspective of enlightened fakery. I was seven when Thurber died in 1961. It was another seven years before l_read my first Thurber: Further Fables For Our Time. From there I went down the course: Walter Mitty, "The Catbird Seat,'4 My World and Welcome To it (both the book and the brief, brilliant JV series derived from Thurber's work). Is Sex Necessary? the hilarious Freudian satire he wrote with White. What I discovered was a world whete minor, mundane tragedies capture our laughter because they show that we are hardly excepted from them: We all make the same dumb little mistakes, and are all jumped on for the same trivial deviations from the norm. Everyone Is Out To Get not Me, but All Of Us, and Thurber is the one famiHar face we see in this foreign country. Which is all I have to say about Thurber's work: It speaks quite eloquently for itself, ‘ and I direct you there. That professional laugh-makers are often among least happy of people is old news, at least since the the emergence of the biographical trend toward a frivolous image through gung-ho reportage of trials and tribulations in Jhe life of a funnyperson. (Pause for breath.) Burton Bernsteig, though, has all the other trag* revelators beat by light-years: No other humorist, not even Twa.n, has ever had his life mapped out in such a dour tone, Certainly there was no shortage of cruel happenstance in Thurber's life. At seven Thurber lost 3,1 «Ve in 30 accident; his other eye grew progressively worse, leaving him totally blind by 1946. Sexual inadequacy, alcohol and general bitterness toward life were offset, in his peak years of the 20's and 30's, by success, a clownish spirit, masttrY of 3 "guage that was 3 irresistably intoxicating. By the time hi* blindness was totaf, Thurber was a cartoonist who could not see, a comic writer to whom 4ife was anything but funny, and a legend who was confronted, ever after, by a‘mushrooming reputationand declining powers. Mostly, Bernstein leaved, the task of telling Thurber's story to those best suited for. it: Thurber's wife Helen, a brave and long-suffering companion during Thurber's hardest years; White, a masterful writer himself, whose appreciations of Thurber are perhaps the most trenchant of all; and Thurber himself, through may pages of letters and conversations. (The excerpts presented from Thurber's fiction and cartoon work, though, .are unforgiveably frugal.) v, The story they tell is a distraught and upsetting one, but still much brighter than Bernstein's view of the evgpts and attitudes that surround them. Thurber emerges as a mass of contradictions, by turn* inspired, plodding, devoted, vain, nihilistic and full °1 i°'e de vivre. In that light, it s appropriate that Thurber’s meticulous, exhaustive portrait contrasts an illuminating genius with one of the murkiest realities any artist's life has ever yielded.

Looking for a dealer in old phonograph records? in dolls? in Currier & Ives prints? or in baseball cards? Need some little-known facts about a little-known president? Well, then, this is the book to have. In The People's Almanac, Wallenchinsky and Wallace have tried to collect that information which one always needs but which almanacs in the past have not provided. Their aim is not only to present history in her regal trappings but to lift up her skirt and let us glimpse her frightening yet hilarious nether parts. They have tried to make readily accessible not only the everyday stuff a student needs to spice up a dull term paper but also necessary information, from self-examinations for women to the history and nutritional value of common food-stuffs, from emergency child-birth to publishing your own book. In short the editors have produced a book that belongs in every room from the bathroom to the living room, to the kitchen, to the bedroom; it is a "must" for anyone fond of trivia, though the point of the Almanac is to make "trivia" important and the important trivial ... > "Somewhere between Pope Leo IV (847-855) and Pope Benedict HI (855-858), Joan [Anglicus], in the lifelong guise of a man, rose to the highest seat in the Roman Catholic Church.

"One of the heated controversies during [Millard] Fillmore's term [as President] concerned the guano reserves off the coast of Peru. This sea-fowl excrement, which could be converted into valuable fertilizer, was a bone of contention between American businessmen and the Peruvian government. Fillmore intervened in the dispute and negotiated a special treaty." The History of Television, 1927: "Herbert Hoover, Secretary of Commerce, appeared on the first intercity television transmission from Washington, D.C. to New York;" 1930: Felix the Cat became television's first 'star' when he appeared in statue form on an experimental program on NBC. The figure whirled on a turntable before the camera's eye;" 1950: "Groucho Marx introduced the first comedy show in a quiz show format, 'You Bet Your Life.' Bedecked in a polka-dot bow tie and with his ever present cigar, Groucho would utter ohe-liners and collect a $25,000-per-week salary. Not satisfied with the TV medium, Groucho said, 'Intellectually, it's a joke. But unfortunately, it reflects the tast of the U.S. public'." The Academy Awards, 1932—1933; "For the first time it would only happen three times in Academy history both acting winners were absent from the big night. Will Rogers was MC, and he really flubbed his lines. Announcing the winning director, he spoke of his 'good friend Frank' then hesitated and Frank Capra had started toward the stage when Rogers concluded, 'Frank Lloyd, the winner.' Then Will Rogers summoned two of the three actress nominees, Diana Wynward and May Robson, to the stage. They came up thinking they had won in a tie, but Rogers thanked them for their performances and then announced that the winner was Katharine Hepburn!" The History of Sex, 1665: "The word 'condom' first appeared in print.

Our conservatism had kept the award from him.' But finally, it was not high regard for Hemingway (Albert Camus and Concha Espina were favored over him) but high regard for one of their own that determined the 1954 award. The senior judge.

' - Prodigal Sun �7 I J - I JL JL W James Madison, Alexander Hamilton and John Jay were talking over the Florida primary last week. They had met in an alcove of the Founders Club. They were a notable trio in queues and ruffles. They were the three who wrote The Federalist in 1787, which was a promotion job for the newly devised United States Constitution, adopted a year later. They helped start it all but they didn’t expect it to turn out this way. They never anticipated a presidential election lasting a year, with a dozen state caucuses and 30 primaries, with rival parties, two convention spectaculars, and a sporting event falling between the baseball and football seasons, costing $400 million. No, they thought of it as a quiet affair performed by genteel delegates picked by respective states, who would meet decorously in the nation’s capital to count ballots and elect a worthy successor of George Washington. “The people who own the country ought to govern it,” John Jay wrote once. And in The Federalist papers he warned against “the activity or party zeal taking advantage of the supineness, the ignorance, and the hopes and fears of the unwary and interested (which) often place men in office by the votes of a small proportion of the Democracy and pluralism To the Editor. After a thorough reading of John Elias’ letter of February 20,1 would like to point out: 1) Mr. Elias is either ignorant of the truth or is guilty of misrepresenting the situation with half truths. Since I have faith in human integrity, I must conclude that Mr. Elias is ignorant. 2) The Buffalo'Evening News of January 14, carried a banner headline to the effect that Moslem religious leaders had declared Jihaad (holy war) in Lebanon. If the conflict were one of class as Mr. , Elias says, there would have been no motivation for these religious leaders to go to the extent of declaring Holy War (i.e. religious). 3) There is presently sitting in an Israeli jail, an Archbishop of the Eastern Orthodox Church, as Mr. Elias states. The part Mr. Elias failed to mention was that this Archbishop, Hilarion Capucci, a known' P.L.O. sympathizer, was convicted of smuggling guns and other weapons illegally. 4) Mr. Elias voices protest over what he calls as Israelis bombing Mosques. This statement is so filled with distortion that there is nothing truthful about it. Several years ago, a deranged Australian tourist, who, by the way, was neither Jewish nor Zionist, was convicted of bombing the Silver Mosque (Al Aksa). It might also be noted that, within a short time of the bombing, the Mosque was repaired at the expense of the Israeli Government. 5) If the conflict in Lebanon is not one of religious or National groups, why is it that; a) the Lebanese parliament is divided according to religious affiliation, which seems to be at the — heart of,the conflict; b) the parties to the conflict are constantly described as being Christian vs. Moslem; 9) since the beginning of the Civil war, there has been a de-facto partitioning of the Christian and Moslem communities which has resulted because of , population exchange; 6) Finally, Mr. Elias proposes a solution to the Mid-East problem a democratic, pluralistic society in Palestine/Israel. My response is: a) Israel is a democracy with np one official — wnai uo you iiiiiik. an. hi me one mey c<m Jimmy Carter. Mr. Twice-born the Wallace slayer?" ventured Jay. “I think 1 should like to have him on my side,” Hamilton answered cryptically. “But it is the process that fascinates me, friends, not the players. Picking a president is the central problem of our system of divided government, the only such system now in the world. We were gullible. perhaps, when we thought we had solved it in our cozy Electoral College. 1 wrote in Federalist No. 68 that the mode of appointment of the Grief Magistrate was almost the only part of the system ‘which has escaped without severe censure.’ I boasted that our method would make a choice without ‘tumult and disorder,’ without ‘cabal. intrigue, and corruption,’ and that it affords ‘moral certainty that' the office of the President will seldom fall to the lot of any man who is not in an eminent degree endowed with the requisite qualification'.” “Not like you-know-who?” murmured Jay. “1 think that, with all its faults, Sir, our system would have strained out Nixon,” said Hamilton grimly. “We blocked Aaron Burr, you There was awkward silence for a minute at the mention of Burr.-Then Jay continued, “Something odd is happening to America, I think; something the public hardly realizes. It’s the politics of unity. The ‘factions’ turned into parties and became a binding force, but now they are falling apart. For 14 of the past two dozen years one party has controlled Congress, the other the Executive Mansion. For the first time since Polk in 1844, Gen. electors.” John Jay turned to James Madison. “What Eisenhower in 1956 failed'to elect a Congress of do you make of the Florida primary.

Student wins due process case Advocates of full constitutional rights (CPS) for students were elated over a recent legal victory at the University of Minnesota. A federal district judge has ruled that veterinary student Robert Waag’s right to due process was violated when he was suspended for allegedly cheating on a test. Waag was found guilty of cheating on an exam last spring by a judiciary board made up of profs from the veterinary school, and was suspended for a year as punishment. Yet Waag maintained that his Fourteenth Amendment rights were violated when his accuser, a veterinary science professor, was allowed to speak at the hearing, and he was not. According to one of the faculty judges, Waag’s accuser gave a “forceful and very well reasoned presentation” of why Waag was guilty of cheating. In fact, it was so effective that despite a subcommittee’s unanimous recommendation to dismiss the charges against Waag because of insufficient evidence, the faculty voted to oust him from school. When Waag filed suit against the University, the courts saw it his way, and consequently Waag will face a new hearing later this year. No word yet whether the J-Board will be manned by students this time around. Waag’s lawsuit was one of several due process case* that have cropped up this year. The Supreme Court, in Goss vs. Lopez, recently ruled that before students are suspended or expelled, school administrators must give them a chance to “informally discuss” the alleged misconduct, stating the reason for punishment and offering them a chance to explain their side of the story. So far, however, the court has avoided making a clear cut statement on the formal nature of school judiciary hearings. The right to have counsel and cross examine witnesses and be tried by one’s peers are still Fourteenth Amendment freedoms that are unrecognized on campus. - BILLY COBHRm GEORGE DUKE with special guest David Sancious mONDflY.mflRCH 22 8=00 Harry A.

Don Bosco became the priest who brought youth back from the streets and back to Qod. He reasoned that a program of play, learn and pray would make useful citizens of the world. He crowded out evil with reason, religion and kindness in a (what.was then unheard of) atmosphere of family spirit. — The ideals of St. John Bosco are still with us today.

There are no nuclear facilities on any other campus in the State University. (Stony Brook works in conjunction with the Brookhaven Laboratory on Long Island.) The Nuclear Facility is the cylindrical building located next to Acheson Hall and bordering Peele Field. One important division of the center here is the Radiation Protection Department. While watching ifter the health and safety of the workers at the center, it also provides licenses for the use of radioisotopes and radiation producing equipment at this University. Faculties involved with these materials include the chemistry, physics, engineering, biology and health sciences departments, or a major percentage of academic activity here. There are approximately 94 radiation producing machines on campus, such as x-ray machines and electron microscopes. The campus holds 108 laboratories that use isotopes and about 300 pe'ople including faculty and graduate studeqts alone who , use the labs. A radioisotope is a type of atom that can be tracked through a biological system in something called - a tracer experiment. “Our knowledge of biological processes wouldn’t be whfere it is now, if it weren’t for the existence of radioisotopes,’-’ said Charles Thomas, Direcotr of Nuclear Science and Technology facilities/ “There is not one isotope on this campus that we don’t know about, which means a lot of record keeping.” All records are subject to inspection by state and county health facilities and by the federal government. Nuclear waste, such as chemically contaminated wipes or any liquid or solid materials, is disposed of by the Radiation Department in old pickle barrels. The center is equipped to handle large amounts of waste, although temporary storage of barrels has become a small problem. * Undergraduate German Club /wenRK It's all here at C.W.

Post a total summer experience. . . Feature Editor . . .. Teaching and study projects The Nuclear Department is separate from the Radiation Department and concerns itself mainly with teaching and individual study projects. Courses such as radiation science and protection and tracer techniques are offered in the biology department. A number of courses on Aerospace and Nuclear Engineering are offered in engineering departments and one course on geo-cronology for archeology, involving dating techniques, is offered in the Anthropology department. Thomas is beginning a program for high school students concentrating in the sciences, but would like to set up a full time nuclear program like ones currently offered in Pennsylvania. and graduate students conduct Faculty individual research projects for departmental or commercial use. An archeology graduate student is tracing elements in Iroquois Indian pottery to determine former trade routes in North America. Work was begun last year using isotopes to study glacial ice composition, and the geology department is beginning to analyze uranium and potassium, both naturally radioactive. Members of the biology department are studying the changes in calcium content in mice as a function of old age. They are working with live animals and keeping them alive, and Thomas noted that women in menopause also suffer from this de-calcification process. Work is also being done with radioisotopes in tracing the content of human brain tissue. Thomas says it may be “possibly very important in future studies of the brain.” No classified work “No classified work is done here at all,” said Thomas. “I don’t want any work done hero that can’t be published.” Thomas has done classified work for the federal government, but discontinued his work for them in 1949. “Most classified material in nuclear research involves weapons and defense,” he said. More than 50 percent of the Nuclear Center’s budget is maintained by private companies. The remainder comes from rio-interest loans by the University. The laboratories of the Office of Naval Research have for years conducted research on radioactive effects on certain materials. They use the labs here for research on the safety of reactors for commerical use. Thomas radiates samples for them and ships them back. “Thay say that we send them the best temperature controlled radiated samples that they’ve had in 15 years,” he said, “so I’m anticipating a bigger contract with them.” The Center produces short-lived radioisotopes for commerical companies that make biological compounds and pharmaceutical supplies. However, no energy or power, such as that used in making weapons, is produced in the reactor. “Part of the problem with nuclear energy is that it was introduced to the public as a bomb that destroyed two cities,” Thomas said. “It’s as if electricity had been introduced with the electric chair. I think nuclear reactor work is pretty safe. There have always been strong regulations in nuclear power plants, but often there are problems with different interpretations of the regulations,” he continued: The Center'conducts tours of ten to twenty people at a time.'Any interested students may call 831-2826, anl when enough people have called, a tour will be arranged.

Lee Clju*s Resfauftig Sports Editor We offer you the finest Chinese Food The passage of the athletic budget by Student Association (SA) just before spring recess is certainly a landmark event. It marks the first time in recent memory that budgetary increases have been granted to varsity team and than an athletic budget has been passed with a minimal amount of hoopla. But the most noteworthy thing about the 1976-77 athletic budget is its omissions. Track, cross country and fencing have been eliminated from the varsity sports program at this school. SA has decided that it can’t afford to spend the money required to pay for the coaches needed by these sports. The gut reaction to such cuts isone of excessive animosity toward a student government which has cut off three of Buffalo’s less popular sports to save eight others. The cuts mean that approximately SO athletes, will not be able to compete on a varsity level in the same manner they have in previous years simply because SA -will not pick up the tab for their coaches. t > The resignation of former track coach Jim McDonough last fall set the stage for the cuts of track and cross country. The hiring freeze makes It impossible for the Athletic Department to hire a suitable replacement for McDonough. As a result, track, cross country and fencing are now the only men's varsity sports not coached by full time faculty. Full time faculty coaches are paid by the state, part titne coaches are not. The cost to SA for sponsoring coaches for these sports on its own would have been approximately S40.0Q0 (including funds needed for equipment, travel, etc. to maintain the three sports), or one-sixth of the entire athletic budget.

This heavy expense needed to maintain the three sports makes it necessary to take a second lo6k at the cuts voted by SA. SA finds itself in a very difficult situation. The Athletic Department will no longer stand for a program funded by chewing gum and fishing wire. On the other hand, large increases to athletics mean decreases for other SA-funded organizations. There is no way out. Club status, which was funded for the three sports, will not be a viable solution to the problem. Fencing requires excellent coaching to maintain competitiveness, and track and cross country will be lost without the funds to which they are accustomed on the varsity level. This means that all three sports will be gone from the campus scene as of September. Again, it is the athletes involved with these sports who are really losing out. You’ve got to feel bad for a guy like Eldred Stephens. Perhaps the best pure athlete at this University, Eldred will now have to virtually take it • upon himself to make arrangements to compete. As for coaching, who knows what difficulty he may have. Stephens, and athletes like him have only one real alternative and that is to transfer. Since their sports are being dropped at Buffalo, they will not lose a year of eligibility. Nevertheless, the elimination of their sports will cause these students undue hardship whether they transfer or not. There is really nobody to blame for the cuts. The money really just isn’t there. Students don’t have it, the state doesn’t have it, nobody has it. You can’t argue with a zero bank balance. But it sure is a shame. The magic number is now at five. This decade has now seen the elimination of five varsity-sports: fencing, track, cross country, crew and football. Will it ever end? by David J.

But with the emergence of contract hassles like the one going on ,. , It is the fear of the owners that richer clubs in more attractive cities would soon corner the free agent market. Wealthy teams such as the Yankees, Mets and Dodgers would have decided advantages over other clubs in signing free agents. Owners cite the Yankees' ' right now, grapefruit league act|&i|Y*fia* become an annual question mark in recent years.

Page twenty-one . �Inexpensive Europe... —continued from page 5— this deal, an organization “rents” a plane and crew from one of the major airlines and then splits the cost of the rental among the members of the organization making the trip. Disadvantages in the affinity charter racket are the same as those of the Travel Group early bookings, Charters limited, specified departure dates and the possibility of cancellation hassles. Yet these drawbacks are certainly o\itweighe<f' by the tag: affinity charter price round-trip flights to Europe can ‘cost as little as $20(0. If your school doesn’t offer affinity charter flights, shop around. Most schools will allow you to sign up with their charter flight even if you aren’t a student there. A rarity is a one-way school affipity flight, a gold mine if you plan to stay abroad indefinitely. Start looking for school affinity charter flights immediately; these are gobbled up fast. - Shady Deals: If you can't find affinity a school that flights, and don’t mind taking risks, look under the “Travel Opportunities” listing in the classified ad section of the New York Times. Legally, the only groups allowed to charter planes, with the exception of TGC organizers, are those which have not been formed specifically for travel. Thus “Let’s Go To Europe Clubs” are illegal. Yet a number of covert “Let’s Go To Europe Clubs” exist. They eagerly advertise for people to join their and, as a “side “organizations” benefit,” gain incredible savings on plane tickets. Many of these organizations aren’t particularly reliable, however, and you risk losing your fare. Even more shady than umbrella affinity groups are pirate companies. These companies buy a block of one-way tickets from the airlines and then illegally sell - BUS TOKENS tor one-way.tickets to Europe low as SI00. You don't prices as face criminal prosecution if caught making use of these companies' generous offers, hut you do risk losing your ticket. Pirate companies also advertise through newspapers. Last Minute Plans; Obviously, the best way to save money on a trip to Europe is to make plans well in advance. But if you aren’t much of a planner, and miss the TGC or charter flight deadlines, just head for a phorfe booth. With a little luck, a seat will turn up s because someone else Cancelled their plans. With zero luck, investigate Icelandic fares. Your best deal may ,be to hop on a one-way Icelandic flight and then buy your return ticket from a student travel bureau in Europe €urope is more civilized than the U.S. about plane fares; you can snap up your passage home for as little as 90 bucks. — Reduced Rates Package of 10 $3.50 with Student I.D.

No. 64 Wednesday, 17 March 1976 VA regulations Veterans may lose benefits by Charles Greenberg Spectrum Staff Writer Approximately 3000 veterans who attend this University may lose about $1 million a month in benefits if the University cannot comply with enforced Veteran’s Administration (VA) regulations. Ed Serba, chairman of the Western New York Concerned Veterans Coalition, said the VA decided to te-enact a 20 year old law which requires colleges and universities to maintain certain records on students receiving Vets’ benefits. Schools that do not keep such records will lose their “approved” status with the VA, Serba continued, and veterans who attend these schools will not be able to draw benefits. According to Serba, loss of “approved” status Breati by this University would have a “devastating” effect. easier Strict application Last April, a great deal of attention was focused on overpayments totalling several million dollars to ineligible veterans, Serba said. The VA simultaneously faced substantial cutbacks in its funding, making it necessary to reduce spending and to exert greater control over the benefits being disbursed, he explained. enrolled in law schools continued The current problem stems from the VA’s desire not as fast as to to increase, being strictly applying its laws concerning school in recent years.

Law school enrollments, which have more than doubled In the last decade, appear to be leveling off, according to statistics gathered by the American Bar Association (ABA). For the first time since 1968, the size of first-year law classes declined last fall, according to James P. White, Professor of Law at Indiana University and the legal ABA’s consultant on - education. The number of first-year students dropped from 38,074 to 37,892 in die 156 law schools that are accredited by the ABA from fall 1974 to fall 1975. The increase in total enrollment was only 3764 students, or 3.3 percent. Except for a slight drop in 1968, law school enrollments increased steadily over the last ten years, even when enrollments in other fields were leveling off or falling at many universities. Recently, however, sane lawyers have expressed concern that the schools may be producing more lawyers than there are jobs. In addition to the general drop in enrollments, law schools may be experiencing a decline in the quality of the applicants. In 1973-1974, the mean test score for both men and women taking the Law School Admissions Test was 527. In 1974rl975, it was 518 for men and 523 for women. “Many law schools experienced a decrease in the total number of applicants who met the given admission criteria in each law White said. school,” “Additionally, a' number of law schools experienced a greater number of ‘no shows’ in their first choice of admittees.” Even so, only one law school reported any unfilled seats in its 1975 entering class. The number of women - considered “satisfactory progress” by a veteran toward his degree, according to Seiba. Dye added that this would interfere with the right of the University to administer its own academic programs. Anthony Lorenzetti, Assistant Vice-President for Student Affairs, said that any student allowed to continue in this University has met the required standard for progess and such standards should be left up to the discretion of the University. Legal action? This is a national problem and any school with c large number of veterans will feel thi affects of the action, according to Dye. The VA’s laws are geared to small schools with small veteran populations, where they can be more easily administered, he said. The University has been in contact with legal counsel concerning its responsibility in this area, said Lorenzetti. The new VA policies.are not only an intrusion, but the University cinnot possibly keep such records, he explained. The University is cognizant of the position of the student veteran Lorenzetti said; and he hopes the VA will develop workable guidelines. At die March 3 meeting of the U.B. Veterans Association, a proposal for a “show of concern demonstration was passed unanimously. The demonstration is set for March 24,1976. SUNY budget to pass with cuts intact by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor Hugh Carey’s executive budget is expected to be approved by the Legislature today with very few changes in the State University’s (SUNY) allocation, according to a reliable source in Albany. The source said that the Legislature will return $200,000 to SUNY Binghamton’s School of Advanced Technology, but that the total revenues expected from SUNY in the Govemor’sproposal remain. An increase of at least $100 in tuition and room rent for undergraduates and $200 for graduate students will be necessary.. These changes, however, will have to be made by the SUNY Board of Trustees.

When Japan “modernized” this complex reading system . was enthusiastically embraced by heretofore uneducated Japanese.

MARCH 31, 1976. ~ Congregating in bookstores The Japanese bookstore rather than the library, is the place to go to browse, socialize, and sometimes purchase books/ Kanazawa, a city about half the size of Buffalo, has at least six “real” bookstores that 1 have been able to discover so far. (I don’t consider the University “Bookstore” in Norton a “real” bookstore.) The largest one in Kanazawa is divided into five floors catering to a full range of tastes, from the scientific to the obscene. One whole floor is reserved for grade school children the future of Japan. Eventually they will have to conquer the gruelling university ■entrance examinations, so no expense is spared preparing them. The floor is filled with school supplies, especially diaries (daily, monthly, yearly etc.) for one to record daily progress or failure. Self-learning English cassettes repeat the same message over and over again to all who want to get an edge over their classmates. The latest invention to speed the student along in his/her studies is a space age contained desk with a must digital clocks, electric pencil sharpener, and built in bookcases for every kid. — — Tea breaks Almost every store in Japan that contains more than one floor has its own tea room or rooms. The bookstore is no exception. In Japan a clerk would never think of telling you to move along if you weren’t going to make a purchase. If you don’t have the money you can stand and read the book all day, pausing only'for inexpensive tea breaks. If you do decide to make a purchase, large or small, it will be so skillfully wrapped and tied with ribbon that if you haven’t been used to living in Japan, you will be reluctant to open the package. Americans who can’t read Japanese must be content with the international edition of Time and Newsweek, which quickly proves a great incentive for joining the Japanese and learning Kanji.

The "Coalition" which is made up of undergraduate and graduate students, representative of various segments of the University commiinijty, have united on the basis of five demands. for peace Please allow me to express my appreciation for your generally fine article about the problem of the continuation of the Judaic Studies Program. However, there is one>point that needs correction; when the Program was established in 1972, it was housed in the Department of Classics for the sake of administrative convenience although it was not made an integral part of the Department. In fact, Classics was assured that it would not suffer budgetarily on account of the Program while Judaic Studies was assured that it would have full autonomy in matters policy, curriculum, and degree The Department contends that this agreement has not been kept and that it has had to support Judaic Studies in part out of its own budget. This is the reason that Classics would like to see Judaic Studies separated and given autonomy. In of academic requirements. fact, the feeling of the Department is that if Judaic Studies is adequately funded, such that Classics does not have to support it out of its own budget, it would be happy to continue housing the Program. Nevertheless, all agree that it would be better if the Program should be given autonomy. By the way, most of' the interest in Judaic; Studies courses comes from non-majors, for while the majors constitute only 4.6 percent of the course enrollments, the non-majors amount to 95.4 percent. The reason for this is that majors must file an oyer-long application with the D.U.E. Special Majors Committee and secure individual approval of that committee. They cannot simply “sign up.” Thus, only the most stalwart complete the Special Majors and whereas others just take courses in the area there are very many who do so! — Michael H.

J; However, MacDonald’s is accurate. uom'in 'tint Toyoko Rudmin Thank you for Ridge Rood To the Editor. I am prompted to write this letter by the full page ad that Blue Bird Bus Company placed in Monday’s The Spectrum. The whole bus situation has 1>een a farce from the very start. Blue Bird’s service was never that good to begin with. Schedules were lax, the buses were-crowded, and many of Blue Bird’s drivers were (and still are) rude and nasty. 1 feel that the most important thing to remember was that Blu? Bird walked out on us and left us stranded! My question to the students is where would we have been if Ridge Road Company hadn’t stepped in as quickly and efficiently as they did? How many classes would we have missed if Ridge Road hadn’t been around to handle the problem, or don’t you look at it that way? Are you only concerned with “comfort?” To refresh everyone’s memory, the service provided for our transportation is a BUS service not a Taxi service. The difference is considerable. A bus service must operate with certain rules and time schedules. If you want to be on Main Campus from Amherst in ten minutes non-stop, take a taxi, and see how much you have to pay for the convenience and comfort. Again to refresh your memories, the buses are free, we don’t have to pay for them every time we ride them. Granted, the school buses that Ridge Road used were not the easiest things to get on and off, but I was told by a driver that they had ordered transit buses, but cancelled the order as soon as they were told that they no longer had the job. For the two months Ridge Road drove, I never once had a bad experience with any of their drivers, nor was I late for any classes. 1 take the buses every day and three nights a week. I would rather sacrifice a little comfort, for a lot of courtesy that was given by the drivers of Ridge Road. I never was passed by a Ridge Road driver while running;to catch a bus. Try to get the same treatment from a Blue Bird driver. Most of Blue Bird’s drivers feel that they are doing us a favor by driving, not providing a service that they are paid for. . Instead of thanking the Ridge Road Company and their drivers for helping -us out when we needed it the most, they were harrassed, called names, their buses were tampered with, and they lost a contract that they deserve more than Blue Bird does! I hope all of you are happy with the comfort that Blue Bird supposedly offers, but will the service be any better than Ridge Road provided? After riding the buses on Tuesday 1 can’t see any improvement. In fact I think it is far worse than Ridge Road! At tllicott Tuesday morning, there were about two and a half bus loads of people waiting to get to Main Campus with no other bus in sight. Tell me that that is improvement! I know 1 speak for more people than myself, and 1 would hope that you too will write to the people in charge of buses and let them know how you feel. If no one else will say it, “Thank you Ridge Road and I wish you were back driving.” Wednesday, 17 March ... David A. Lipetz 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �■* Guest Opinion CAREER by Charles R.

Such participation in the drafting of Report which is connected with and recommends the retrenchment of units and individuals effectively pits the victims of this process against those who participate in it. This not only makes it more difficult to defend the victims of retrenchment, but effectively undermines the collective bargaining process and the rights of all members of the University.

There is no recognition of the fact that-individuals have given years of their lives tQ the University and frequently have already passed through one or more evaluations of their - work, In general, we must point out the insecurity into which the basic principles of this Report, if accepted, will throw the entire University. Programs today may see that appear immune from their positions undermined seriously in a short period of time. No individual would have more than minimal and short term guarantees. We cannot stress too much the fact that a new contract is presently being negotiated. Acceptance of the present Report will have serious repercussions on that process. While today programs are being rated against each other, tomorrow every individual,' irrespective of program, fnay be ranked against every other, and against all possible'candidates for a given position. Such an eventuality would throw the entire University into continual turmoil and subject each one of us to shifting criteria of the administration and to constantly accelerated “productivity” demands. The UUP calls on aU faculty and professional staff to refuse to endorse this Report. The only way to guarantee true standards of academic life is by the establishment of a.contract, binding on the state and the administration, that guarantees essential rights to faculty and professional staff, and that basically protects the University for the students and the general public. The only way to ensure that kich a contract will be forthcoming is for all faculty and professional staff to become active members of UUP. Only then will we be able,to effectively participate in the real decision-making process of the University, in the a healthy University life that will truly interests^ of serve the' needs Of the genefal public.

The United Parents Association of (UPA), comprised representatives from various inner city and other public school parents groups, held a press conference last week at BUILD’sGenesee Street headquarters: < BUILD, “a matter of law,” tfjjrt should be dealt with as such, rather than as a panacea for achieving quality education. Gaiter commented on the suit before Curtin, which was brought in 1974 by the Buffalo chapter of Commissioner Ewald B.

He also accused the Department of Health, Education and Welfare of “playing some game” in its attempt last year to force the Buffalo school system to remove its minority teachers from black schools and predominantly to them reassign evenly throughout the district. He said that people in the black community had fought hard to get black teachers assigned to their schools, and that for HEW to | attempt to remove them before solving any of the schools’ numerous problems was “asinine and stupid.” I It was also made clear by | Gaiter that BUILD’s views- vnre | not necessarily those of die UPA.

The Governor’s new austerity measures call for the elimination of the State University Scholarship (SUS) fund and a 10 percent across the board cut hi Tuition Assistance Plan (TAP) awards for grad students at a purported savings of $2 million. The cost of graduate school tuition at SUNY currently stands at $1600. The maximum TAP award is $600. TAP is usually supplemented by the taxpayer-supported SUS fund which frequently assumes the lion’s share of the tuition balance. SUS grants can cover the entire tuition charge when the maximum TAP incentive is awarded. If the state legislature approves the Executive Budget, however,, graduate and professional students on full TAP-SUS scholarships may no longer be able to afford their schooling costs. 3,188 students receive the full graduate student scholarship package in the state. Of these, 1214 or 40 percent, afe at the State University at Buffalo, making this school the hardest hit of the SUNY Arthur Eve, the response wasn't very encouraging, he said. The students met with officials of SUNY central and presented a protest petition to SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer which was signed by SO percent of the graduate and professional students here. Both Eve and Carey were unavailable for comment. The student lobbyists found that many legislators were upset over supposed graduate student “subversion" of the TAP emancipation option. The clause, found on the New York State Scholarship Application, can be signed by the student to indicate that he/slie is financially independent of his/her parents and, therefore, may qualify for the maximum TAP award. But SUNY Central Financial Coordinator Lefkovitz has revealed that the majority of emancipation clause misuse is attributable to undergraduates;- the reason being that by Jeff Edwards are undergraduates generally "younger, and more Spectrum Staff Writer likely to depend ©n their parents financially.

"While there still may be Judaic Studies courses in Feinrider seriously questioned New York State's peripheral areas,” Silverman said, “the program cannot be run regressive in that those who receive the most suffer the steepest cuts. “If these proposals are initiated, commitment to Affirmative Action in light of satisfactorily and give students a decent education in the area without minorities will be squeezed out and SUNY will be scholarship cuts that will affect minorities the the core courses. “In short, the program will be wrecked,” he transformed into a lily white institution,” he hardest. “The poorest third of the graduate student concluded. maintained. population cannot absorb the substantially higher Last week, Feinrider and six other graduate cost of graduate education.” he said. “Can the Besides teaching two or three courses a semester, Silverman students were in Albany lobbying against the University continue to uphold tills principle in good coordinates the entire Judaic Studies curriculum.

Apart from budget cuts and the possibility of > Silverman qpt getting tenured, there are other factors working against the future of ■M' T:. These days “budget” is a word that makes Muto. He explained that last year’s desperate Judaic Studies, he said. One such factor is that the significant studept demand- which in 1972 precipitated the formation of the program nd everybody wince. “Budget” is often followed by attempt to savd six sports from being cut (track, 1 ! “cuts,” and that makes everybody wince again.

According to Congressional legislation authorizing the BEOG program, students arc eligible for a maximum $1400 grant. However the BEOG application states, “it is estimated that during the 1976-77 academic year the awards will range between $50 to $1000.” A spokesman for the Basic Grants division in the Office of Education told NSL that the $1000 figure was used in the application because Congress.had not appropriated enough funds to offer fulf-size grants to students. Beginning February 17,Congress will begin to consider a Supplemental Appropriations bill that,'p would provide additional funds to thie BEOG program for the coming school year. An'Vsfihlated $600 million are needed in order to offer maximum pants of S-M00 to eligible students. In making the charge against the Education office, NSL did not dispute the fact that the money is currently not available to offer $1400 grants. But the Lobby did criticize it for not including an explanation about the grant reduction in the BEOG application. v « “According to law, students are entitled to a griuti. Congress will have to decide if enough $1400 - anyone else, but added that the Office of Education would expect a number, of inquiries about the grant reduction. “You can bet there are going to be some perhaps from some attorneys as well,” inquiries said Pressman. “We really can’t blame Congress for not appropriating enough money because they depended on the Office of Education to provide estimates on the number of students who would participate in the BEOQ program. The Office estimated that 56 percent of BEOG applicants would be eligible for an award in 1975-76, but instead, 74 percent were eligible. Now it appears that a lot of students are going to suffer because of the Education office’s miscalculations, i can see why they would be reluctant to explain that in the application for this a. year.” NSL has called on the Office of Education to disseminate revised irifdrrhatiqn on BEOG awards following Congressional action. NSL has also announced a nationwide student lobbying effort -which will focus on the BEOG supplemental appropriation. NSL is asking students to contact members of Congress during February and March and urge their support for the much-needed student-aid funds. NSL has singled out the members of the Senate and House Labor-HEW Appropriations Sub-committees, who have jurisdiction over financial aid appropriations, as the prime targets of the student lobbying effort. - ■ The recommendation of the President’s Academic Planning Committee to offer Vico College courses “under the aegis of the Departments of Faculties of the University” has apparently confused Vico representatives. “We can’t figure out, what they mean,” said Vico Residential Director Mike Wing. The report recommended that Vico courses be taken over by departments, but that the College be maintained as “a focus for humanities.” “Will our funding be discontinued?” Wing asked. Vico College representatives have sent a letter of inquiry to President Robert Ketter, requesting- an explanation of the Committee’s report and stressing the importance of maintaining Vico with adequate funding and a coordinator. According to Wing, Vico College was criticized underenrollment. However, the College wishes to remain small. “We have 40 faculty members representing 13 departments and 100 or so residential members,” Wing said, “We are justbeginning to develop a community spirit.” Vico College offers humanities courses cross-listed with departments, dealing with philosophy and the histojy of ideas." Courses arc taught by regular University faculty and the program is maintained by a coordinator and a $12,000 budget. “If the funding is dropped, it would mean the end of the program,” Wing said. The future of the Vico program remains contingent on the response to Vico’s letter of inquiry and Ketter’s final decision on the Academic Planning Committee recommendations. of (he lobb ta cfrorl, NSL is asking come to Wshlnglon, D C April 2-6. students to JSLSST!?

The UFW’s boycott covers lettuce and grapes grown in parts of California and Arizona where growers have refused to sign contracts with the union. In addition, the boycott covers Gallo wines and jmy other wines produced in Modesto, California. Many people today are uninformed about UFW activities because of insufficient press coverage. The union is working to overcome this problem. Still many sympathetic persons believe that the boycott is over and farmworkers have finally gained their rights. But the contracts signed by UFW and the growers in 1970 expired three years later. They were renewed, but not with UFW. The Teamsters Union signed contracts with die growers in 1973 instead and claimed to represent the years Teamsters never called a force the growers to allow to chose their Union.

Animal entrails Later in the week, students and faculty members at William Patterson College in Wayne, New Jersey smashed a window and ripped two doors from their hinges as they tried to gain access to a closed meeting of the college’s Board of Trustees. The protesters were angered by the recent Bring of 38 teachers. Patterson College was also the scene of a demonstration a few days after die Board of Trustees incident when about 400 students left a spontaneous rally, marched off to the school’s administration building where about 150 students swept inside and demanded to see the president. The president, who has since resigned under Trustee pressure, was not in the building at die time and the crowd dispersed. At Wayne State University (WSU) in Detroit, three students angry at what they called WSU president George Gullen’s “insistence at running a factory rather than a school,” invaded the executive wing of the school’s administration building and scattered about smelly globs of animal entrails on the office floors of the top three university administrators. Included in the mess was the head of a decomposed goat.

WSU has been forced to take the budget axe to just about everything. “We’ve just about reached the stage of cutting back on toilet paper,” quips WSU executive vice president Edward Cushman, also a former American Motors vice president. His office was not spared the animal innards on the day of the attack. WSU President Gullen is actually no stranger to dead animal parts. Last spring, in the midst of a chaotic meeting dealing with the phaseout of a widely praised experimental college within the university, he and the WSU Board of Governors were presented with a huge pig’s head by a student member of the Worker’s Revenge Party.

' * China Night great success by Kenneth Norman Spectrum Staff Writer SB The Chinese Student Association ushered in the year of the Dragon Saturday night with China Night ’76 at Amherst Central High School. „ Add these words to your basic vocabulary now, whether or not'you’re planning a trip to Mexico soon. SPANISH chocho gargarizando sacamuelas bulla manteca pantufla ENGLISH The entertainment, provided by University students, was informal as the Chinese students shared a part of 'their culture with the audience which was approximately 50 percent non-Chinese. The program began with the Dragon Dance four people supporting a huge, colorful dragon on sticks as another performer teased the snaking monster,, This lively act helped stir up the viewers after the relaxing dinner. Next was the Fairy Dance by Evelyn Lai and Lolin Wang. This performance was plagued, as were some others, by the harsh lights of zealous patrons — childish old man gargling quack dentist soft coal lard bedroom sir with movie cameras. Here at Jose Cuervo, we belie an informed consumer i$ an informed consumer. Teh Wah Chen played a Chinese instrument that looked and sounded like a small harp laying on its side. ».;’m Wu . Shu,, an exhibition of martial arts, was appreciated by the crowd, not as much for perfection of the moves as for its informality. The audience ftlt at ease, sometimes laughing at the flubs, such as when two blindfolded fighters could not find each other for a few second?. A sparring match between Wu and Peter Tse, with their quick exchange of punches and an exhibition of the Northern style of fighting by Norman Chiu provided an exiting highlight to the show. Some modern Chinese songs, often heard on ' B^^ED UBY^W^8eUBLEIN. ,INC.! hARTPORD. CONN. ; IMPORTED AND The celebration consisted of a traditional dinner, with egg rolls, Chinese vegetables, and fortune cookies, and a variety show, accompanied by two one-act plays. Both dinner sittings were sold out and the performers played before a full house. radio stations in China, were featured by Lin Chi Liu, Yuchi Peng and Shyanyaw Liou and then by Eddie Cheung backed by Nelson Liu on violin and Kin Fun Wong on piano. The latter was the best musical performance in the show. The final performance in the variety show was Day,” a Chinese folk dance in the Fisherman’s “A traditional style. During intermission there was an awards ceremony for the winners in the Chinese Student Association’s table tennis and basketball tournaments and a raffle of 26 prizes for ticket holders. The second part of the program featured two plays. Put Down Your Whip and The Yellow River, intended to portray the spirit of the Chinese people. Put Down Your Whip by Yiu Jing dramatized the invasions of' China by foreign armies in the 1930’s. The dialogue was in Chinese with an English translation flashed on a screen at stage right. The play, set in a small street, opens with an old acrobat staging a show for donations from the village people. The acrobat and his daughter haven’t eaten for days and the girl collapses during her act. Her father half-crazed from hunger starts to strike her with a whip until he is stopped by a villager, a V common worker. Their ensuing dialogue describes the invasion tj|iat drove them from their homes. The play ends with the worker stirring fhe villagers to fight to protect their country. The second play was a dance drama variation on the same theme, based on the music of Hsien Hsing-Hai. The five-scene drama depicts the Yellow River throughout Chinese history, beginning with the hardships of the river people, the attack by foreign invaders, and ending with a stirring battle and anexciting victory celebration for China.

Page seven �EditPrtal is, " Cutting coaches At last Sunday night's joint meeting of the old and new Committees of the Student Association (SA), two Executive I motions were passed that would cut off funds for men's and women's athletic coaches. Currently.. SA pays for two men's part-time coaches, two women's part-time coaches, and five assistant coaches, not to mention numerous student assistants.’ If the motions eliminating these positions are not rescinded, SA will deal intercollegiate athletics a gigantic blow. By not funding the women's coaches, SA leaves itself open to a Title IX lawsSit which could cost the University thousands of dollars in federal aid. Additionally, by refusing to fund assistant coaches, SA is effect tripping over its own feet. Executive Committee in members approved a budget for next year which-calls for eight men's sports to be funded at a Division I level of competition, yet by refusing to pay for assistants, they make it impossible for sports like wrestling, basketball and hockey to function as Division I operations. N Another meeting of the Executive Board was scheduled for yesterday afternoon. Hopefully, the officers present decided to rescind these motions and move on to the other inportant matters involving the athletic budget.

Anyone who doubts it is more than welcome to dome up to The Spectrum office, and sec for themself .how endorsements were written in past years, A final few words to those who question our “credibility.” and hence, the quality of the paper itself. The editors and writers of this paper arc aware of the fact that The Spectrums, is not The New York'Times or Washington Tost. To hold us up to that standard is almost as ridiculous as it is: unfair. But the 30 odd people associated with ibis newspaper, who spend as much as 30 hours P*r week in this office while at the same time carrying a full course load deserve a little more yellow credit than groundless cries of journalism” from people who don’t even know what the term means, r — — , 1 f Howard Greenblatt Managing Editor The Spectrum Pick me a winner Knock, knock I o the editor To the Editor This may seem like sour grapes, but it is not. I am writing this letter as a student worried about the future of our University. A future which has been dealt a severe blow this past week, when six persons based on 20 minute interviews decided what Should have been decided by the students. The Spectrum showing all the attributes 6f an authoratarian government picked the new executive committee of the Student Association (SA). They did this by overstepping their editorial powers, and literally telling the students which candidates should get the positions. A job of a newspaper should be to report to the people all the necessary information they need to know about the candidates, not pick them. We might as well abolish the elections if its just going to be a rubber stamp of whomever The Spectrum picks. In its endorsements The Spectrum mentioned some qualifications that certain candidates had, and did not mention them when other candidates had the same qualifications! Is this fair? They took quotes out of context, and came t<5 some conclusions which they did not back up with facts, and had no possible way in which they could justify. As a result of all this, we did hot elect the best possible candidates for the positions, which we would have done if the students had chosen the winners. In thp name of Democracy I request, and in the name of the students I demand, that The Spectrum never again endorse candidates! I find it appalling that the editors of The Spectrum waited until last Wednesday, the first day of elections, before badgering the candidates they -happened to disagree with. The people who wrote Wednesday’s editorial pertaining to the candidates obviously care little about the ethics of journalism since they made no attempt to follow them. It was definitely unfair to Jeff Lessoff that your attacks on him were published before any votes were cast, while his rebuttal was not published until Friday, after most of the votes were already cast. It was not fair to any of the other candidates you knocked down either. Unfortunately, an immense amount of power has been placed in the hands of a small, elite few who have just shown us that they know how to abuse it. Whoever wrbte Wednesday’s editorial owes the candidates they attacked and the student body as a whole an apology. As a conclusion, I note one statement in the introduction to the editorial which reads, “We feel that a less aggressive approach on The Spectrum's part might foster more independent thinking on the voter’s part.” Why don’t you practice what you preach? Chuck Ferrara Editor's response Jeff! Lessoff did not submit his until Wednesday afternoon, the deadline note: for Friday's paper.

Those \ijiib charge that we weA; “biased” in our treatment of the candidates J could not be of course we were biased more accurate biased in favor of those candidates who, on the basis of interviews, we judged to be more fit for office than their opponents. “Unbiased” endorsements do not exist. That is a minor point. though, for hopefully most people understand that the Editorial Page of a newspaper reflects editorial opinion and Wednesday’s The Spectrum was no exception. Evidently, there are students rhete who feel that there was something underhanded, subtle, and devious about the way of the candidates. we presented That the editorial appeared on the first day of the election (as.Jt has for a few years now) was unavoidable. That it appeared at all, considering the time and work involved in interviewing and evaluating nearly 30 candidates, as, in fact, remarkable. National newspapers may not endorse candidates on the day of the election sure but candidates for national political offices campaign for longerthan 10 days! If the people on this campus who purport to understand “journalistic ethics” knew half as much about ttaq dynamics of physically producing a newspaper, then perhaps the existing editorial board of The Spectrum could resign, confident that capable, dedicated people would t move in and take over. A few basic facts. 1First, a special eight page supplement was set aside so that all the candidates could present their qualifications, goals, and ideas. No one, therefore, was at a .

(The $1460 figure derived by adding $400 to the present $1600 tuition fee and then subtracting the new maximum TAP amount, $540, after the 10 percent decrease.} Provisions like these are particularly disturbing when one considers that sentiment in Albany favors tuition assistance for students in private institutions. If people such as Lieutenant Governor Mary Ann Krupsak insist on channelling taxpayers' dollars away from public higher education it can only bring about the demise of the State University system and deny thousands of students the opportunity to further their studies. Should the legislature approve the cuts in graduate assistance, more students at this University than at any other school in the state will be forced to abandon their educational goals and look for work. What's worse, those minority and working who can leist afford to foot the bill will lose the vital source of income that is class students keeping them in school. Graduate students, who often teach the majority of lower level courses in addition to assisting faculty in University research, are too valuable an asset in the scarce resources system to treat so callously. Given keep money to public therefore, the state's first obligation is indispensable education to save in the public sector of the K SUS and TAP. programs such as mi 1 — ' *:&*'•-’**r*•*. k* As Managing Editor of The by cuts in Of all the groups in the SONY system that Budget, appears graduate it Executive Carey's Governor deal. to a of the addition the worst end got Irv students proposed $400 increase in graduate tuition, the Governor's austerity plan calls for the elimination of the State University Scholarship (SUS) fund and a 10 percent across the board cutjn Tuition Assistance Plan (TAP) awards.

He has the. usual compliment of flights of fancy.The park is his domain and he its ruler, hence the self-adopted titlee "the Prince of Central Park." He is tender.

Wednesday, 3 March 1976 . �Television Sports coverage a perfect marriage of sight and sound by Phillip Krause Spectrum Arts Staff Television's coverage of sports is generally considered one of the medium's most successful endeavors both financially and aesthetically. In 1975, the three networks devoted over 1100 hours (an average of more than three each day) to sports programming. And 1976 will bring even more sweat into our living rooms. — One of the reasons for the overwhelming popularity of sports Television does not merely a sporting event. The industry uses each event to create a ''show," a form of entertainment that is supposed to be better than actually being there. "Sport" and "sport on television" have developed into two separate entities and, for most fans, the latter has become the reality. People can now consider themselves "fans" of a sport without having to be bothered by going to any of the games; for them, if a game isn't on television, it simply doesn't exist. Even when these intrepid souls are somehow persuaded to venture from their video cocoons "live" and attend a game leaving behind Curt Gowdy and his slow-motion instant replay (of everything in they are no longer satisfied with just watching the action. They must be fed a constant stream of extraneous (non-)information, whether it is from a million-dollar scoreboard, the .disc jockey moonlighting as a P.A. announcer, or the radio they smuggle in with their thermos of report — television is the medium's sport from the realm of the (more-or-less) purely visual. Television is ideally a technological marriage of sight and sound. In sports, it has found the area in which the two complement each other almost perfectly: turn off the sound and you can still watch the action; darken the picture and you can listen to the commentary. Put them together and you have "radio with pictures," a cultural phenomenon that causes marriages to break up, beer guts whiskey. to be cultivated, and Murine, Inc. The ultimate to pay stock dividends. absurd tribute on success ip removing — — — and — television to control our sense of reality is the fact that many of the newer sports arenas have been built with giant television screens suspended from the ceiling. Now you can go to the game without having to miss it on television. The deadly hype Competition among the networks for the loyalty of this tire- and battery-buying public is high. So high, in fact, that, especially in mid-winter, after the Super Bowl has been hyped to death and the only NFL action is in the courtroom, there simply aren't enough genuine sporting events to go around. The networks, however, are not about to abandon their potentially profitable weekend time slots to public service (read: "boring") programs and reruns of My Mother the Car. Like the government that mints money as it needs it (and devalues all of the money supply), the networks, by a (techno)logical extension, simply most to the power — very simply —- concoct their own sporting events. i Just as television proclaimed its semi-independence from the film industry by making its- own "movies" and passing them off as of equal to — if not better than — any of Hollywood's creations, the networks, by eliminating the middle man of organized sports, have committed themselves and a lot of stockholders' money to these phony, made-for-television — — non-events. the athletes they want will be where they want when they want them,. Thus, sport on television moves closer to the realm of drama: athletes. become actors who talk of changing their image, the events receive lofty titles, arenas become theaters and Jimmy Connors gets rich. Led by CBS and, to a lesser — degree qualitatively, if not quantitatively ABC, this trend — — produced such shows as Superstars (a decadent-thalon of 'I stars, many of whom you have has never heard of before), the Heavyweight Championship of Tennis series (in which Jimmy Connors, the Coriolanus of the courts, will play anyone wearing matching wrist bands).

In one lamentable that CBS at least tries to present stroke, they can guarantee that athletes performing in their No longer chosen fields. That would be bearable. But ABC, the paradox of the picture tube, the network that can do such a fine job in its presentation of the Olympics and then turn around and offer Almost Anything Goes (in prime time yet), seems determined to humanize its athletes, to the point of embarrassment, by having them compete in a variety of sports, none of which is their specialty. It can be a very painful experience to learn that your boyhood idol (who can hit a baseball 500 feet) needs training wheels on his bicycle and couldn't swim if his life depended on it which it almost did. (Who can forget Joe Frazier's imitation of a piece of obsidian doing the Australian crawl?) At first glance, it might seem — that, in its quest to control every factor of. production, television has finally succeeded in removing from sports as much of the spontaneity and unpredictability as possible. However, an examination of last year's ten highest-rated sports telecasts reveals that all of them were genuine events that "real" would have taken place with or without Chris Schenkel and his superlatives. And eight of them were broadcast on NBC, the one network that emphasizes live productions of genuine events. There is hope, sports fans. — Buffalo Philharmonic Arestrained performance by Karen Szczepanski rjtf & Mike McGuire !;.'k Stri Associate Conductor Robert Cole led the Buffalo Philharmonic through a somewhat restrained all-Mozart program Saturday night in Kleinhans Music Hall. The program included performances of the overture to "The Magic Flute," the Piano Concerto No. 24 in C minor (K. 491), and the "Jupiter" Symphony (K. 551), three of Mozart's most popular masterpieces. A bright rendition of the "Magic Flute" overture opened the evening. The relatively drab setting of a concert hall detracted from the feelings of anticipation produced by the music. Unfortunately, the end of the overture did not produce the brightly costumed operatic singers one hoped for. Dana Perelman was the technically perfect, if Jazz great Elvin Jones brings his quartet to the Tralfamadore Cafe March 1'lth through the 14th. The quartet consists of Pat LaBarbera on reeds and flute, Ryo Kawasaki on guitar, David Williams on bass, and, of course, Elvin on drums. There will be two shows each night at 9 p.m. and 12 midnight. Tickets are priced at $4 and can be purchased at the Tralfamadore and Record Runner. somewhat mechanical soloist for the Piano Concerto. The interplay of orchestra and piano seemed unduly restrained; the subtleties of the music were so understated as to sometimes be ignored. It was only in the last (Allegretto) section that Ms. Perelman came to life, and the orchestra followed her lead. The elusive, "cat & mouse" quality of this movement saved the piece from being relatively devoid of excitement: Ms. Pere.man, originally from Kenmore, was a bit too serious and lacking in emotional intensity perhaps a lingering effect of being an ex-child prodigy. Her ability, while impressive, is simply not inspired. The "Jupiter" Symphony was a finely-executed — piece on which the orchestra lavished its full love and attention. The youthfulness of the orchestra finally seeped through to the music on this composition. Although not played at a brisk tempo, the music floated smoothly. The song-like qualities of the Menuetto section contrasted nicely with the lively Allegretto section. However, the listener was not jolted by the change in tempo progressions were made smoothly and naturally. One gets the feeling that Mozart somehow would have made the orchestra play with a little more spirit at many points. There seemed to be a certain air present that dampened the brilliance of his compositions. Perhaps truly great music does not lendjtself so well to being performed by somber musicians in a hall of dressed-up people. This isn't to suggest classical concerts should be put on like rock concerts, since it requires somewhat more concentration to be enjoyed. But yet, there is no particular reason why classical musicians need all be dressed alike, entirely in black formal wear (a white formal gown in the case of Ms. Perelman). There is no particular reason people should feel restrained from shouting "Bravo!" or something similar after the fine performance of the last piece. Yet nobody people confined themselves to clapping, did although enthusiastically. But still, if you have any taste for classical music, the Philharmonic is generally excellent and well worth checking out. — — Wednesday, 3 March 1976 .

To the Editor: 1 wish to clarify the remarks regarding restrictive covenants that were made by Frank Mesiah and myself at the seminar at the University Saturday, February 21. While it is true that we have uncovered thousands of restrictive covenants in all of the surrounding suburbs of Buffalo, we should have stated, if we did not, that the restrictive covenants in their original form go back to the 1930’s, 1940’s and Dana Dubbs’ article on vegetarian diet was a Immoriin+o TzZSfXJTliiti wcnnnw ITJlTTlSCllQLS > very good message to the Main Street campus"and hopefully the surrounding communities. However, this letter is in response to a Feb. 25, 1976 letter to To the Editor: This is a follow-up to my letter of February 9 concerning registration. On February 10 I received a call from Ken 4 Herrmann who worjcs with the computer at -Ridge Lea. He had seen my letter and said that he could ftrlighten the whole thing out. That afternoon I went to see him arid he explained that it 'had,' indeed, been a computer mistake. H3 also said that if the registration advisors had looked at the computer sheet, they would have noticed something was wrong and the problem could havj Been rectified long ago. Finally, he registered me in all the classes I wanted. I would like to thank The Spectrum for printing my letter and especially thank Ken Herrmann for 1950’s. To my knowledge, we have not discovered any restrictive covenants which were written after the early 1950’s. However, our point was that these massive restrictive covenants clearly establish a foundation for our case against the suburbs, if we ever go to court with it, because they show that the federal government and the municipalities involved contained blacks and other minorities in Buffalo, thus perpetuating segregation in Buffalo, and keeping blacks from owning homes in the suburbs surrounding the city. not ignoring it. - the editor that was written by a medical student. After reading his reply, “Plants have feelings too,” one could immediately assume that he’s a vegetarian also; if not then he must be eating his heart out. Then after reading his last sentence, “we must stop fucking around,” it was clear tljat his objective was to avow his overall ignorance to the entire matter. The preceding response is relevant. Nonetheless our essential concern goes out to those health and diet conscious individuals who could possibly be dispaired by the dubiousness of the medical student’s letter. Yes, vitamin B12 deficiency could be harmful, however, dairy products and eggs will suffice for the exclusion of meat from your diet. Also, if one maintains an adequate diet, with the exception of meats, a vitamin B12 deficiency isn’t apt to occur. - Davjcfoilliken ( Concerned members of “Buffalo Animal Rights Committee’’ Norman Goldfarb Co-Chairman, Citizens Council on Human Relations Student succession Squirrel coats To the Editor. I wish to make a moderate proposal concerning the split of opinions over the right of Student Services to exist. It is becoming increasingly evident, even to the most apathetic student (myself) that lines have been drawn and the conflict over Student Services is coming to a head Dr. Ketter has tried to make this campus’s existence more amendable to the community by attempting to cut out student services that are in direct competition with businesses in the area. A after all we don’t want to cause noble thought someone to go broke. The S.A. and other organizations have argued that students have the right to provide (heir own services. The argument is sound in that the large student population which this area maintains is due solely to the fact that the University exists. Had there never been a University, these businesses which thrive off student monies would never have opened here. As it stands now, the issue is most likely going to be settled in the courts. I would like to offer a moderate alternative. I propose that the students secede. The Student Association would use its one million dollar budget to hire a new administration. The State and Faculty would, .gypport the new administration.

The following statement concerns the troubles of the campus squirrels due to unleashed dogs. I am assuming that the dogs in question are owned by people associated with the University (students, faculty, administrators, drunks). The thought of having one’s dog continually bound by a leash is often repugnant to the owner. I realize this, and it militates against my demanding that dogs be leashed. But one cannot allow unleashed dogs without accepting the death of a few squirrels. After all, dogs will be dogs, as the saying goes; and they apparently like to kill squirrels (or play with them a little too roughly). My proposal is that the dead squirrels should be put to some use. The owners of the canines could use the squirrel pelts to make coats for their dogs. These coats would keep the dogs warm in the winter when there are no squirrels to chase.

P»gt thirteen i *a �A Zionist's view Defense of fencing languages of Isrgel are To the Editor To the Editor: The SA Financial Committee is now in the process of formulating an athletic budget for next year. The latest proposal calls for eliminating Cross Country, Fencing and Track. I would like to speak in defense of the Fencing team, as I feel that it holds a place unique among sports here at U.B. Fencing is more than just a sport at U.B. It is a tradition spanning the past 40 years. Although it began rather modestly, it quickly developed to the point where U.S.’s Fencing team was a super-power in the Northeast in the 1950’s and 1960’s. The prestigious North Atlantic Fencing Championships were first conceived of and held in Buffalo 26 years ago by the team’s former Maitre, Coach Sidney Schwartz. Today, coaches Jim Marchant and Bela Babus are trying to make Buffalo the center for fencing in Western New York. Buffalo’s fencing team has declined from its position of strength in the late 1960’s to where we are now which is still as one of the better teams around. The reason for this decline is primarily due to the budgetary problems that all small sports at this University have experienced. Few promising athletes would come to a school where their sport was in constant danger of elimination. But despite this, we have maintained fencing on a very high level up until now, and have the respect of the best fencing. This year, for example, we have competed against five of the NCAA’s top ten teams a claim that few, if any of our other sports can — - ’ make. Secondly, it is my contention that by eliminating fencing from our athletic program, we are being pound-wise and penny-foolish. For a fraction of what it costs to run our major sports, we can run fencing at a very high level. This year, we have about 25 fencers, with all of them seeing action during the course of the season. If utilitarianism is an issue to be considered in the funding of athletics, it would seem to make sense to continue with the fencing team. There is a final reason why fencing should stay as a sport here. Anyone that is willing to learn can fence, make varsity, and do well. A former captain of our team came to U.B. knowing nothing about fencing and yet took third place at the North Atlantics as a junior. We have at this time a woman on our starting varsity, and she has met with a lot of success this year. Fencing is not a sport that is restricted to any one type of person. There are no ' physical education majors on the team (why, I don’t know). The “average” U.B. fencer is a Biology or an Engineering major. The small teams at U.B. give these people the opportunity to get involved in NCAA sports, whereas otherwise they wouldn’t have the chance. There are a lot of good reasons why fencing serves an important purpose and deserves to remain as an intercollegiate sport. As was demonstrated with kiss it football, once a sport gets cut here goodbye; and one never realizes how good something is until it is taken avtay from them. — Joel Solomon Captain, U.B. Vanity Fencing Elia* goes to the Vatican to back up his claims, Forgive me my cynicism, but when the Vatican speaks on Middle Eastern atrocities they have a tendency to forget about certain acts. Acts such as Israeli children being thrown out of windows, of athletes being murdered in Munich, or of bombs being exploded in theaters, He mentions a mosque being destroyed, yet Elias is curiously silent as to the destruction of cemeteries. One cemetery in particular dated back to the tune of Jesus. This cemetery was destroyed so that an access road to an airport might be built. The airport, and access road is in Syria. Syria! The land where 4500 Jews are not allowed to emigrate from As an American Zionist who read John Elias* criticism of Samuel Print*** letter on the situation in Lebanon (The Spectrum: 2-18 and 2-2Q) I would like to voice my opinions oh several of.Elias’ statements. Mote specifically. 1 would like to question several of his statements regarding Israel. Elias referred to Israel as “The Zionist occupation of Palestine.” Using this phrase he denies recognition of the existence of the State of Israel. Since he doesn’t accept the existence of Israel, I am tempted to not accept the existence of John Elias, However, he has had a letter published in a newspaper, and the newspaper exists, so someone must exist who writes under the name John Elias. He stated that: “The bloodshed was introduced by some racist groups like Haganah.” He implied that the 1948 war was the beginning 'Of the bloodshed. Just as it is untrue td say that the Haganah began the bloodletting, it js untrue to say that the killing began in 1948. The riots of 1920 and *21, the “Jerusalem riots” as they were called were perhaps the beginning of the fighting. In these riots 52 Palestinians were killed by mobs. The dead were Jews, the mobs were Arab. Arab bands went oh to kill 5(7 Jews in Palestine between 1936 and 1939. Many of the mobs and riots were incited by the Mufti of Jerusalem. The Mufti was to become a Nazi war criminal, only to be pardoned by the British, The New York Times said this about him: “Extremist followers of the Mufti are rapidly achieving their aims by eliminating political opponents in Palestine who are inclined toward moderation!” (October IS, 1938) As for Elias’ ideas that “the Christians or Moslem; that need to be cried for are (those) living under the Zionist Occupation “I think they are unfounded. There have always been Arab Moslems in the Israeli Parliment. The Arab citizens of Israel are citizens in every sense of the word, they can vote because they will swell the ranks of the Zionist army. Where aside from the 10 p.m. curfew on all Jews every night, and the roll calls each day, Jews are not allowed to travel more than three miles, hold public office, vote in any election, go to college, obtain drivers licenses or practice any profession. Syria, where an Israeli spy was caught, and in spite of worldwide appeals to, in the name of human compassion, spare Eli Cohn’s life, was hanged. So much for Arab hospitality, or human compassion, In a recent TIME magazine (Feb. 9, 1976) George Habash, the leader of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, said this: “Suppose they offered us SO percent of Palestine? Would we accept? NO! No Arab can accept a racist state in Palestine that regards Arabs as second class citizens.” As to a “Racist state in Palestine” that regards Jews as second class citizens, we can only speculate, Given the examples of how every state in the world which has had a Jewish minority has treated that minority, can the Palestinians be expected to act any differently?

Rather than raising women’s wages on a par with men, the bosses have tried to lower the wages of men, too and in some One of the working class’s most important holidays is March 8th, International Women’s Day. On March 8, 1908 women garment workers rose up against the sweatshop bosses in NYC. Since 1910 International Women’s Day has been celebrated in countries throughout the world, pointing out the cause of our oppression, the capital system and showing the way forward through revolution and socialism. Like all worken, women face speed-up, bad working conditions, low wages and every other form of exploitation in factories, offices, diops and hospitals. But women as a whole are faced with even lower wages than men, and particularly in this period of economic crises, higher unemployment. Many of the women who do not work are kept isolated in the home. The bosses try to use this situation to divide women and men. Right now a section of the rulers of this country are trying to get the Equal Rights Amendment through as an amendment to the Constitution. On the surface the ERA appears to be a good thing, giving women legal equality with men. In states * . cases have fired men and hired wotnen to work for less. As in any situation wherever there is oppression, there is resistance. Women have played a valiant role in the battle against all oppression. The women who formed the Women’s Emergency Brigade during the 1933 Flint Sit Down, our sisters who marched for the freedom of political prisoners in 1969, the Vietnamese women who fought alongside the men to liberate their country, and the wives of striking steelworkers who answered a letter from die bosses telling them to send their husbands back to work by picketing themselves, should serve as examples to us.

They lost two games to Western Michigan University by one goal each, continuing the Division I jinx that has plagued the team since its inception.. But the Bulls also received notice that they had been selected to compete in the ECAC Division II playoffs for the first time since 1973. The Bulls are seeded last in the eight team playoff schedule, and therefore, will be playing dri the road at Merrimack in the opening round Saturday night.

Graduate Students Employees Union (GSEU) chairman Howard Kling criticized the report for Affirmative Action violating principles, as well as utilizing cost-efficiency terms that are “alien to this University.” Kling felt the report, if followed, would “sterilize” the University by Smokescreen for cuts The committee, said Kling, is merely providing a “respectable smokescreen” for “crass, heavy cutbacks” 'here, one which would give sanction to the budget priorities of the state, if ere is a false sense of security among programs to be “maintained,” said Kling, since this designation ignores cutbacks being put into effect by the state. Ketter has been ordered by SUNY to cut 130 iflre. WuJfl of the Puerto Rican Studies Program, suggested that the was merely Planning Report “previously-made endorsing decisions” and it would serve to reinforce “historical patterns of discrimination” against minorities. Jose Pisarro, a student in Puerto-Rican Studies, agreed with Matilla, saying that minorities have always been “last hired, first fired.” Pisarro said the committee report called for a return to “the old ivory tower situation where everything is nice and white with no dirt around.” Ellen Dubois, professor of History and American Studies, said the report was “pernicious” in perpetrating divisions between needs Of students and needs of faculty. She went on to attack the “management values” of the committee members. , jBr H budget for next year asks for 125 more FTE’s to be cut, Kling said. Alfredo Matilla, acting director „ mwL i I Jyp B #K P£ Hr JV vw “ No ‘phasing up’ Molefi K. Asante, Chairman of Speech the Communications Department and Acting Chairman of Black Studies, said there was not a single instance when the Committee recommended a “phasing up” of programs for minorities. In addition, Asante charged that the Committee’s membership did not reflect Schwartz wins presidential contest by 545 vote margin A crowd of about 75 candidates and friends waited until well after midnight Friday night for the results of the Student Association (SA) election. The delay occurred because a car carrying most of the SA Elections and Credentials Committee broke down on the way from the Amherst Campus to Main Street. When the results were finally tabulated, Steven Schwartz of the Phoenix party was the victor in the Presidential contest and Steven Spiegel of Advocate was elected Executive Vice President. A total of 2898 undergraduates voted in the election. Schwartz won by a substantial margin, receiving1134 votes to 589 for Abdullah Wahaab and 542 for David Schapiro, his two closest rivals. The other three presidential contenders, Alan Donohue, John Boncek, and Daniel Scherrer received 194, 157, and 87, respectively. Schwartz said it was a “very tough campaign” and that he was really hoping for a party sweep. He added that this year will be a difficult one for SA and that “hopefully we will all work together quite well.” 1 No hard feelings Despite Schwartz’s strong showing, Spiegel was able to defeat Schwartz’s running mate David Brownstein, 937 votes to 815, with Jeffrey Lessoff receiving 696. Spiegel said he anticipated no problem working with the other new SA officers. “These parties were put together three- weeks ago and everyone knew each other before then, so there will be no strongly negative feelings between members of the different parties,” he said. Jonathan Roller of Advocate won the contest for Vice President of Sub Board with 969 votes, - * compared to 747 for Judith Sack and 609 for Kathleen Venezia. The race for Treasurer saw Carol Blcok win re-election over Robert Powell in a one-sided contest, 1848 votes to 587. According to SA lawyer Richard Lippes this was the largest individual votes total in SA history. Her 1261 vote margin is a sharp contrast to her slim 34 vote victory for Treasurer last ' ' year.' 4 • 4' PHOENIX sweeps SASU In the race for Director of Academic Affairs, Andrew Lalonde of Advocate won easily. He received 1147 votes to William Finkelstein’s 600 and Steve Walti’s 575. The new Director of Student Activities and Services will be Pat Lovejoy of the Salt and Peper party. She received 876 votes to 775 for Jeff Winkler and 611 for Dennis Black. The contest for Director of Student Affairs was the closest in the entire election. Lee Perres of Phoenix defeated Steven Ferst of Advocate' by the scant margin of 24 votes, 855 to 831. Andrea Gableman of Salt and Popper finished third with 580 votes. Frank Jackalone was the leader in a large field of candidates vying for one of three SASU Delegate slots. Jackalone had 1342 votes, Ilene Cohn was second with 1125 votes and Lynn Bittner captures the third position with 823 votes. All three were of the Phoenix party. This was a poor year for write-in candidates. The most votes any received was three. “educational diversity,” when that diversity should have been a major factor in its considerations. In response to faculty criticism of the Committee and its report. Committee co-Chairmen MacAllister Hull of the Graduate School and William Yearley of the History Department both defended its actions and methods. Hull said the academic planning process was limited to one year by the Chancellor of SUNY, and that the Committee’s interim report was done as quickly as possible in order to permit wide discussion. Addressing his remarks to criticism that the Committee was making decisions with an eye toward affecting budgets of the programs, Hull replied that “the Committee never viewed itself nor acted as a budget committee.” He pointed out that President Ketter first asked for an Academic Plan for the University in 1971, but early attempts failed. Yearley explained that the Committee was working with an uneven quality of information about various programs, sometimes derived from outside evaluations of a program. —continued on page 6— �3* Report recommends Puerto Rican Studies be phased out structure” at the undergraduate level, and the “apparently diffuse focus” at the graduate level.

Although it recommended the overall maintenance of American Studies, tHe’ Report recommended the Department’s phasing-out Puerto-Rican Studies Program. Cited for “good” and “growing” undergraduate student demand in addition to a “growing MA program,” the Program in American Studies was rated as “good to excellent.” Due to the absence of similar programs in the SUMY system, it was lauded as “excellent’ for the SUNY need profile, while simultaneously criticized as “inadequate” for the University’s need profile. The Committee was also concerned over the “apparent diffuseness of the program’s offering,” its “apparently loose University.” It also charged a “narrowness of clientele served,” “dubious academic quality,” and questioned the program’s “academic and intellectual justification.” a Terming the Report “hopelessly classic, bourgeois document,” and saying that is programs in Puerto-Rican Studies, Native American Studies, and Women’s Studies. In addition, the Program is “fully integrative,” in that it attempts to integrate “personal lives and movements for social change with the intellectual work of the university.” It is also Concerned with establishing a connection between the outside and University communities. Through governance, “participatory systematic involvement of students in graduate undergraduate teaching, and collective development of most material,” American course Studies attempts toV‘break downthe distinction between the content of our work and the process of education.” “reactionary” in nature, Frisch said it “showed no understanding of the programs’ values and the importance of interdisciplinary education. It showed a shallow and confused grasp of what goes on here educationally.” Frisch said the Department has been praised as “one of the most Teaches understanding The Puerto-Rican Studies unique and important American Studies programs in the country.” Program sees its purpose as He explained that its aim is on preserving and providing a fuller “understanding American cultural understanding of the Puerto-Rican a world culture.

Enrollment is not limited to Puerto-Rican students and is 30 to 40 percent non-Puerto-Rican. In response to the Report, Alfredo Matilla, acting director of the Program, said “They want to join the program within the American Studies system and at the same time reduce it so it will be lost.” The Program has been hard hit by budget cutbacks. Within the last five years, its budget has been cut 80 percent and its teaching staff has been reduced by about t>6 percent. Now, the bi-lingual and bi-cultural programs are also being'cut.

Asante questions criticisms by Robert Cohn Staff Writer - Cuts recommended for library sciences i by Charles Greenberg Spectrum Staff Writer The recommendation of the President’s Academic Planning Committee to “diminish” the School of Information and Library Studies (SILS), has met with strong criticism by representatives of the school. Citing “limited graduate employability,” the committee “saw no reason” to grant the school’s request for expansion. George Bobinski, Dean of SILS, said it was “obvious that the committee had inadequate information upon which to base its judgement." The report indicated that although no accreditation reports on the school are currently available, a recent accreditation visit will soon produce one. Also, there is no way to assess the quality of the school’s student body.* • .n : According to Bobinski, however, copies of SILS’ 1972 accreditation report were available in Hayes Hall, as well as copies of a preliminary accreditation report for 1975. The 1972 report mentioned the “high caliber of students in the program,” and the 1975 document concurred, he emphasized. John Ellison, assistant professor of SILS, explained that there were several major “inadequacies” in the committee’s report, including “gross factual mistakes” leading to conclusions that some programs should be phased out, and other expanded. One-half of the academic programs which were recommended for increases were represented on the committee, and these representatives constituted three-fifths of all the committee members, according to Ellison. Of those programs slated for being phased out, none were directly represented, he asserted. Daniel Schabert, president of the Student Representatives of SILS, described the report as “inaccurate and misleading.” He cited as an example, a part of the report which stated that Geneseo and Cortland State Colleges have BA programs in Library Science when no such programs exist. The program at Geneseo, he explained, awarded a BS degree in Education with a major in Library Sciences. In any event, that program ended in 1969, he said. Bobinski felt that the report should have more fully explained why SILS was being “diminished.” There is little room for cutbacks in the program, he explained, since it only has 10 faculty members, no teaching assistants, and a low overall cost of operation. SILS offers a Masters Degree in Library Science (MLS), but does 'not have a PhD program because “we are unable to receive grants,” he ■ s , „ said. S1LS accepts students from most undergraduate programs, and has only recently been drawing from disciplines with poor employment prospects, Bobinski said. Spectrum “It’s like shooting somebody in the headland then accusing them of dying.” This is how the acting chairman of the Black Studies program, Molefi K. Asante, characterized the Academic Planning Committee’s “grossly unfair and misleading” evaluation of his department. The report recommends phasing out the program in Black Studies. Asante maintained that the administration has the last few years conducted a deliberate policy of in reducing the program’s appropriations, yet in the planning committee’s evaluation criticizes it for a “lack of coherence in its course offerings.” He indicated that if more monetary support were forthcoming this “supposed situation” would be ameliorated, and the program vastly strengthened. Academic relevance The report specifically questions the academic relevance of Black Studies. “In terms of the University and the SUNY profile of need, this program appears questionable,” it began. Asante took strong exception to this, contending that Black Studies along with Puerto-Rican Studies and the Center for International Studies helps form the hub of the University. The ideas and issues emerging from these programs are of great relevance to contemporary society, he added. Asante indicated that the report as a whole “was grossly unfair to many departments and was inadequately examined both in terms of academics and education. Although the document was initially an attempt to accomplish something worthwhile, it was poorly written and filled with inaccuracies, thus making the final product appear elitest,” he continued. Asante was elated with the Faculty Senate’s adoption of a resolution expressing “no confidence” in the report. The resolution, passed by a 3:1 margin with approximately 100 faculty members present, also calls for the reconstitution of the committee with more adequate representation of minorities. Dangerous trend Asante said the report accurately reflects faculty reaction to innovational and non-traditional approaches. He noted that this is part of a dangerous national trend. Asante strongly disagreed with the evaluations’ inference that Black Studies faculty do not iblish Although the MLS is the only degree granted by the school, there are several different areas of specialization, such as the School Media Specialist Program.

Gerald Shields, who is an SILS assistant professor, as well as the school’s Admissions and Placement Officer, said 76 percent of the 1975 graduates have jobs and 13 percent are unemployed. Half of the unemployed group is pursuing degrees in other areas, the other 11 percent of the 1975 graduates have not reported back to his office, Shields explained. A study by the U.S. Department of Labor indicated there will be a rise in the number of available librarian positions from 115,000 in 1970 to at least 162,000 in 1985, according to Shields, who added that the attrition rate of librarians will also increase thy demand for presents QUALIFIED COUNSELORS are to answer your questions.

Asante said the Journal of Black Studies, a periodical published by the program, is probably the foremost black journal in the nation. The committee’s evaluation only mentions it, but fails “to laud its eminent standing,” Asante said. Abdullah Wahab, co-director of the Black Student Union (BSU), expressed firm support for the Black Studies Program. He indicated that his organization is currently in the process of formulating a strategy to oppose the recommended program phase-out. Wahab said “it is the intention of the administration to use the budgetary crisis as an excuse to eliminate minority socially innovative programs. Realistically, Wahab doesn’t foresee the program being cut because, “the move would precipitate considerable turmoil on campus.” Wahab praised Asante’s performance as Black Studies acting chairman, lauding his administrative abilities and academic competent*. seminar "PHYSICAL FITNESS & THE ELDERLY" SPEAKERS- / 1:00 3:00 pm. 234 Norton - All arf cordially invited 2987 BAIlEY AVE. -836 3177 I - I } FEBRUARY J{march special} — ■ Bring in this ad fori j $1.00 OFF on J Beef Teriyaki - Dr. Harry Fritz-Dean, School of Health Educ.

An official statement by Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg is expected within a few days. The report suggests that College F (Tolstoy College) and Social Sciences College be eliminated, and that the rest of the colleges lose their status as credit-granting academic programs. Spitzberg’s response, according to one College’s spokesman, calls the report’s accusations and recommendations “unsubstantial and slanderous.” Robin Weeks, a member of the Executive Board of Social Sciences College and an instructor in the College, called the report “.,. a racist, politically biased, elitist report that essentially discriminates against working people in Buffalo and the nationally repressed in general.” He also termed it a political Irving Spitzberg Spitzberg’s efforts: “I feel manuever on the part of the administration “to defending the Colleges from the Planning Committee get rid of alternative educational systems.” for his own gains.

Although most collegiate faculty were opposed to the findings of the report, some expressed faith in Academic quality the concept of academic planning in general. Dick Claude Welch, Master of Rachel Carson College, Menn, Associate Dean of the Colleges, said the said his unit is “strongly opposed to the removal of planning committee idea “represents a new start in creditation.” He added that Rachel Carson is the right direction.” He added, however, that he did valuable, pointing to its many cross-listed courses as not agree with the findings, and found the evidence of their academic quality. committee’s assessment of the colleges unfair.

The Department The Committee, which failed to use the correct title Tor the department, erronously defined its program as one which provides teacher certification at both “graduate and undergraduate levels.” “We are a graduate department which teaches one undergraduate teacher education course,” a Social Foundations statement explains. One of the purposes of the department is to explore innovative methods for the improvement of education. Many area college and high school teachers come to this department to take advanced courses, which will enhance their work in their classrooms. *• - - Serves the community The Committee charges that many of the courses offered are “redundant with those taught elsewhere” in the academy, and recommends that the department be “phased out,” while retaining teacher certification courses in other departments.

The department also explains that its scholarly output has increased, citing eight faculty members who have been responsible for “27 units of publication including five books.” Social Foundations has a faculty growth rate of 17 percent, maintains the department, rather than the 35 percent figure that was cited in the Committee’s report. “Nowhere does the committee mention our employment record, the journals edited in the department, our service functions or our attempts to recruit women and minority students.” In 1974-75, the department says that “all graduates were employed.” Additionally, three important journals are edited or co-edited by members of the department; Human Education, Soviet Education and Higher Education. The significant enrollment of women and minority students confirms the department’s efforts to implement the affirmative action program. At the present time, over 25 percent of the doctoral students are minority members (Blacks, Latin surname, Oriental), and over 40 percent are women.

In its Interim Report, the committee recommended that the Biophysical Science Department “be phased out, with its activities absorbed where appropriate in more viable academic units; ,n” The report stated that the overall quality of the Biophysics program is not high, the research productivity of the core- faculty is weak, and its student quality is adequate to good. Robert Spangler, acting chairman of the Science Department, vehemently Biophysical dismissed these charges. ‘The program is run well. The University is getting a hell of a good deal,” he claimed. ‘The Academic Planning Committee is narrow in its perspective.” I' Defense of position Full potential In defense of his faculty, Spangler said “the core faculty has not realized its full potential as yet.” He added that his core faculty has had 57 research publications over the last five years. “That’s a respectable number,” he said. Spangler has been acting chairman of the Biophysics Department since 1?67. While he stated that the lack of a full time chairman has been detrimental to the department’s efficiency, he still . despite this handicap, the department has feels maintained itself quite well. I’d say the faculty is reasonably good and the program is outstanding.” The Biophysics Department has been awarding about five PhD’s a year. The Interim Report says the cost of maintaining the program is relatively high. Spangler argues that the department’s faculty is on a normal faculty salary scale and that support costs for supplies and equipment are not excessive. . , Spangler is issuing a written statement to the President’s office by March 1 to register his disapproval with the report. He plans to defend the department’s position and ask to meet with President Robert Ketter and the Academic Planning Committee. The Biophysical Science Department, founded in 1959, presently has 6V4 full time faculty members and 35 graduate students. Its adjunct faculty (outside professions who teach here part time) numbers approximately 25. This figure fluctuates slightly from year to year. The Academic Planning Committe proposed that the department be dissolved and those areas of study which are now housed in the department be placed in other, better-established departments. The committee did suggest maintaining the department’s teaching functions in the medical school here. Level of excellence The report also stated “the program has not attained the level of excellence that was expected when it was initiated.” “Regardless of the expectation of ’59 or the grandiose expectations of ’65 during fhe University’s expansion, it’s a perfectly reasonable program in the eyes of the rest of the nation.” Spangler said. He stressed that publication of the Interim Report is damaging and premature, and the morale of the department is at a low. "Put yourself in a grad Harold Cohen, Dean of the School of Architecture and Environmental Design, criticized the Academic Planning Committee fort producing what he feels is a rushed, factually incorrect report. Cohen, whose school is among those recommended for complete phase-out by the Committee, claimed that “errors of fact and omission were inexcusable” in the Committee’s research and report. “The University is an ongoing, growing process that is aiming for a goal, and for this we need an Academic Planning Committee to monitor that goal and to permit and make changes when needed,” said Cohen. But he added that he feels the current report was too fragmented to be useful. student’s shoes.” he said.

It is the responsibility to put together our own menu,” he said. Cohen feels the Academic Planning Committee was needlessly rushed in preparing its report, and therefore didn't closely examine their information. He is not discouraged, however, with the original idea and purpose of the committee. Productive dialogue “The constitution of such a committee should include as much representation as possible, especially from those exploratory areas of the University. The committee members should be given sufficient funding to finish to accomplish their task, and they must be given freedom to operate,” he said. Regarding the recent retrenchment, Cohen claimed that the decision on where the cuts should be made should not come from officials in Albany, who may not be aware of the effects these cuts will have on the departments and schools here. These decisions must be made on each individual campus, he asserted. Cohen concluded, however, that the report has at least stimulated productive discussion. “Something must be done, and 1 hope that the kind of dialogue generated by the report can produce stronger, more effective procedures so ttyat we can give the President what he needs and must have to meet the current fiscal crisis,” he said.

In the report, the Committee referred to the students in that department as “good.” Shaw feels this is “a weak adjective in view of their performance on the recent Graduate Record Examination (GRE), in which 11 out of the 18 seniors in this year’s senior class in Shaw’s opinion did extremely well. on the verbal portion, They finished class in the 82nd the 97th percentile on the math, and in the 87th percentile in the advanced engineering exam. Although Shaw was more interested in giving recognition to the students who did well on the GRE’s, he also cited certain misinformation in the Committee’s report. “Report is off” “The numerical data of the report is off," claimed Shaw. While the report stated that one half of the faculty is involved in grant activity, Shaw stated that the number is actually closer to two-thirds. The report also said that “undergraduate student demand for the program declined rapidly until 1975, when a modest reversal was indicated.” According to a memorandum issued by Acting Chairman Frank Cozzarelli, growth in-the department is at the “highest rate” of all the departments in the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Sciences, and cah hardly be described as “modest.” Shaw is concerned that the findings of the Commission will have an adverse effect on students who wish to enter the department in the future. He conceded that any rebuttals written now will be taken with a grain of salt since the impact of the initial report is most important. The State Universities at Buffalo and Stony Brook are the only schools in the state system which have an engineering program, with aerospace and nuclear engineering unique to Buffalo. Throughout .the interview, Shaw professed tremendous pride in his students, and that he’d “like to see the word get around.” -Jerry Rosoff Planning Committee... —continued from page 1— “Nicholas Goodmanv of the Mathematics Departments cautioned that it would be misleading to think that only innovative program? are threatened by the Committee. Traditional academic values are also ignored, he said, accusing the Committee of selling the University out to interests that are “technocratic and commercial.” The lack of minority representation on the committee was attacked by Jim Cash of the Educational Opportunity Program (EOP), who feared that minorities could also be left off any new committee. Hie colleges, which fared poorly in the report, were defended by several of their faculty and a number of students. Lillian Robinson, professor of American Studies, said that despite protestations to the contrary, there are definite political considerations in the Committee’s report. "They are the politics of power, she added. Robinson also said that while the abdication of faculty power over academic planning, and would place real power over it in the hands of the administration.

The student “riot” involving what seems like armies of helmeted students and police is not at all like anything we experienced in America. The actions of both police and students are choreographed, almost like a ballet. After the demonstration the protest group has been known to forward regrets and gifts to the president of the school, letting him know that no personal insult was intended.

Judge Stiller said he sent a letter to the governot, urging that he deny the clemency request because of the effect that clemency for the Orchard Park teachers might have. He argued that a pardon here would damage the effectiveness of the law in New York State in similar cases. Thomas Rivers, the president of the Orchard Park Teachers Association, and one of the jailed teachers,, urged the rest of his fellow educators to continue supporting the union, as a show of unity. He announced that he was bringing two bags of books to jail with him, including the “heaviest” material he could find, in order to take advantage of his time in jail. Black day George L. Wessel, president of the Buffalo Council of the AFL-CIO, said that the sentencing and jailing of the eight teachers was a black day for labor in New York State. He added that he was personally sorry to see it happen, and that it hurt him. The president of the New York State United Teachers, Thomas rtobart, stated at the rally that all of the teachers in the state should work together to insure that no other teacher “has to spend time in jail.” The jailed teachers,-other than Rivers, include Douglas Johnston, John Roberts, James Wilson, Daniel Carnevale, Robert Zeller, James JPawlak and Robert Stuhr.

They first have to do with the defined letter is primarily concerned. Attached for your reference role of the President in reviewing student fee are three items: a) The lead article compulsory While I will admit that I am only an inexperienced, lowly second semester sophomore, it has been my experience here at the University that the basic hindrance to the'communication between the students and the administration, or, if you will, “establishment” is the widely read, highly “respected” student newspaper, The Spectrum. The main function of a newspaper, as of course everyone knows, is to report news in an unbiased, forthright and. simple manner. While endorsements of party candidates are based on opinion, and as such are subject to the whims of the news staff, I find it almost impossible to believe that endorsements could be written in such a biased, presumptuous, unfounded and downright stupid manner as were the endorsements in Wednesday’s The Spectrum. I say “almost” because in the almost two years that I have been here at UB, this kind pf reporting is exactly what I have witnessed and come to expect of The Spectrum Why is it wrong for a candidate to present himself in a reasonable, realistic,, clean and honest manner? What, on the basis of your interviews for endorsements, gives you the right to destroy someone because he is not “one of you,” not someone who sees the only solution to our problems as shooting President Ketter? What is wrong with realism? It is a shame that the students at this University may be deprived of one of the finest leaders they could have had because The Spectrum cannot see its own way out of the hole into which it has dug itself. I would not be surprised if your blind revolutionary politics backfire on you someday, leaving you with a situation you are totally incompetent to cope with. . i" • , x „ - " ‘ Leilani M.

Secondly, there is a concern on this campus that nothing be done by. either the President or the Board of Trustees to students from prevent establishing -any commercial venture that they feel is to their advantage. Coincidental to this is the whole question of whether or not the Board of Trustees should University at authorize the Buffalo Foundation to act as the developer for Parcel “B.’*Jn the remaining part of this letter, I will attempt to cover some of the background concerning each of these issues Possibly the place to start wou d be last April You will no doubt remember that there was again raised on this campus the whoi e q Ues tion of the legitimacy of Presidential authority (and responsibility ) in the review of the fees. use of compulsory The tri ggering expenditure request had to do with rental of buses for Albany to ask for for Attica defendants. Severa wceks earlier> , had approyal of a request for buses to go to downtown Buffalo. That earlier request had been described by its a sponsors as “educational” number of speakers were to be engated, seminars were to be held, etc. Unfortunately, none of the listed “educational activities” ever although all took place associated with the request fully understood that such activities were a necessary condition for the approval granted. ■ '■ The bus request for the Albany “Attica Support” rally was made by essentially the same group that had earlier requested the funds for the Buffalo buses. Because of “known their previous performance,” probing questions were asked abou the announced “program.” In general, the answers given were feeble, at best and in some cases, they were openly contradictory. They knew this as well as 1 did. The point that was continuously stressed, however, was that independent of whether or not they had lived up to the terms of the agreement of their earlier request, a. preedent had been established, and I could not refuse any further busing fully requests. (The Court supported the authority of the this particular President in instance, as did the special Faculty Senate -Committee at Buffalo that was set up to investigate the incident.)

We the members of the PODER organization representing Puerto Rican students of the SUNY at Buffalo, feel that the raise of tuition fees in the New York State universities is totally absurd. We as minorities are not financially capable of paying this hike. Besides being cut in BEOG and EOP funds, the state wants us to pay higher tuition fees. We strongly feel that if action is taken to raise tuition fees, the state educational facilities will no longer cater to all people; it will cater to those individuals who have the money to pay for it. Our school motto is: “Let all become all he is capable of being.” If tuition and dorm fees are raised, the motto will then be: “Let all become all he is capable of paying.” By raising tuition fees and cutting the amount of BEOG and EOP funds, the state universities can no longer be considered an equal opportunity institution. The elevation of educational standards for;; minorities will be affected negatively if these cutbacks and all proposed cutbacks are passed. We strongly feel that it is your obligation to comply with our demand to keep tuition fees at there present state, pr if possible, lower the tuition fees for minorities. Your cooperation with this matter will be appreciated by all concerned minorities. PODER Organization Affairs Committee Campus The SpccT^um Monday, 1 March 1976 Vol. 26.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief. •’ Once again, the editorial board of The Spectrum has displayed a degree of journalistic ethics that is so yellow it would, make a lemon jealous. In the editors’ introduction to SA candidate endorsements and condemnations (The Spectrum, Historically, February 25, 1976), it was stated, we have been perhaps unduly influential in a role determining the outcome of the election which this year we would not relishThe latter half of that statement is not only a blatant lie, but a gross insult to the intelligence of every student on campus an insult with as much motivating contempt as a spit in the face, ’the editors of The Spectrum have virtually “fixed” the outcome of the election with as much relish and gusto as they could muster. It is a well known fact that the editorial staffs of newspapers throughout the country engage in a great deal of pre-election endorsements of candidates for public office. But they do so well in advance, to give people who may disagree with the endorsement of a candidate to give an opposing view, and to allow a candidate who |ias been editorially tom apart to publicly defend himself prior to the election day. It is unfortunate that the editors of The Spectrum have obviously set about to keep in power those candidates who join them in their little clique of established hacks, while purposely trying to cast the worst light possible on those candidates who fall outside 6f that group, and therefore probably havt many fresh new ideas to replace those currently stagnating. But it is totally the editors’ right to do so. They have their own respective opionoins, and they must be allowed to express them in print if they so wjsh. This is a basic aspect of our fundamental rights to freedom of ideas, speech and the, press. The point is, what is being discussed jiere is not a matter of rights and freedoms. It is a matter of personal and journalistic ethics. For the editors of The Spectrum, with their full knowledge of that newspaper’s power to influence the opinions of its readers, to heartfully endorse some candidates and vindictively condemn and degrade others and then print it on the day of the election is absolutely “ .. . — - disgraceful. - \ • • Will those students who vote see this letter before they cast their ballots? Of course not. Will those candidates who werq, blackballed be able to defend themselves and regain votes lost s\s a result of the opinions voiced by less than a dozen self-styled journalistic musketeers (or should I say stooges)? Again, the obvious answer is no. The “bigwigs” of The Spectrum staff wanted to give their buddies an undue advantage in the elections, and that is exactly what they did. Members of The Spectrum sfaff, allow me to congratulate you on a mission successfully completed. Eric Steckerl Page eight The Spectrum Monday, 1 March 1976 . . - — regulations governing expenditure is an of compulsory fees infringement of basic constitutional rights. This action was brought by officers of SASU, officers of the Student by and Association at Buffalo, presidents of several other student associations. Judge Elfvin, the presiding Judge, heard the case in Buffalo in early September, but thus far has not issued a ruling. (The students simultaneously asked for a temporary injunction, but that was denied.) Now to the second general point at issue. The basic thrust of Mr. Jackalone’s position, and for that matter many of the students at Buffalo, is that students should not their be hampered in development of “student services” by action of the President, by of the Board of Trustees, l»y the fiscal realities of Parcel “B,” or what-have-you. It is their position that student services �not should be as to the right of existence on campus and the ability to be operated and managed by students.” Now to specifics; Pint, consider the Record Coop in the Student Union on the Main Street Campus at Buffalo. About four years ago, the then-officers of the Student Association requested that they be allowed to physically establish a student Record Coop in space in the Student Union, The discussion concerning this possibility was lengthy and at times heated. Finally, it was decided that for a one-year trial period approval would be granted, However, very specific controls in writing. For were specified example, the entity would report to Student directly the Association, which, in turn, would be accountable for its operation; only students would be allowed to purchase records; there would be no advertising; the level of operation would be small; and a full fiscal accounting of the operation would be made at periodic intervals. At the end of that first year, all that could be asid was that probably the level of operation was small. (Actually, they kept no records so it was impossible to say how much actually was sold.) The Student Association then asked if they could continue the operation for they were sure another year that they could get the student operators to be more responsible and responsive. This was allowed, At the end of that year, the dollar volume of business was known, but little else. It is my understanding that last year the Record Coop did a gross business of slightly less than $200,000. Their projection for this year was for something between $250,000 $300,000; but and more i important than this, they refused to prvide the Student Association or the University officers with any detailed financial accounting, even . . questioned ... — — such, reports w«re repeatedly requested (demanded), Now go back to the beginning, Shortly after the Record Coop was allowed to open, I received a letter of protest from “Cavages,” a record store that is located acrcJss the street from the Main Street Campus of the University. A meeting was arranged and Mr. Cavage was given the details of the agreement with the Student Association. While he did not like it, Mr. Cavage agreed to wait and see how things developed. This fall Mr. Cavage again contacted me, indicating that the level of business had gotten totally out of hand, that open advertising in the student newspaper had occurred, and that anyone could walk in off the street and purchase records, though: • thereafter the front the University would provide windows of his store were broken, suitable space in either the (I am not saying that students Health Service area or in the windows, only that it School of Pharmacy; the students, occurred just after we announced through Sub Board I (with compulsory fee monies), would the closing of the Coop.)

The request for a Campus responsible, I have been having Pharmacy also came up about two meetings with officers from the years ago. The “School of various student associations.

Since the Record Coop on the campus paid no taxes, rent, utilities, upkeep, etc., (in fact, it did not even pay wages to its employees>, Cavages felt that, in effect, he was paying taxes to bis competitor. I asked Mr. Doty, my Vice President for Finance and Management, to investigaty the complaint and determine whether or not it was true. It was! The Coop had an inventory of over 40,000 records, was doing a business on an annual rate in excess of $250,000, was not keeping any significant financial records, advertised in the student paper, refused to give any reports'" to the Student Association, and was selling to almost anyone. Based on this information, the Coop was told that it would have to close. As you might imagine, a lot of heat resulted. Threats were made and various groups tried to organize “marches” of protest and “pressure.” Word got around that Mr. Cavage had complained,, and - — — - Western New York. As you know, the University at Buffalo Foundation was created as one of the conditions of merger. Its primal purpose is fund raising. In addition, it was to provide other general types of and assistance to the help but between the various student groups. If all of the above is true, then the statement of Frank Jackalone to Mrs. Moore that the previous constructive energy of these students is now being channeled into growing, open hostility. Indeed, even the apathetic students of the past are now visibly angry.” The answer to this lies primarily in the fact that the student newspaper is not “close” to either the responsible student officers (as a group) or to the administration of the University. Much of what is going on is either not reported or they choose not to print the whole story. It’s also now time for student elections; and, if past experience is any indicator, things will probably get worse rather than better insofar as accuracy of reporting is concerned. Another reason for Frank’s why .. University. one that comes loud and clear in his letter and that is now frequently and openly stated on this campus is that: “Now that we have a SASU representative on the Board of Trustees, and for all intents and purposes the President does not, we can get whatever we want position through — — through that Body.” The arguments 'advanced by Mr. Jackalone and The Spectrum for membership on the Board of University at Buffalo the Foundation are quite similar: Since the clientele of interest is the University community (which is primarily students), since studhets have limited funds, and since (like FSA operations) the *xi$ts on State property, Parcelprofits must kept to then be an aboslute minimum and the store operators must respond to the desires of the Student Body. As a causal line of reasoning, nothing could be further from reality. While the parcel is within “State forever be land” and Will “owned” by the University, full taxes, assessments, fees, etc. must ' be paid to the Town of Amherst just as if it were located anywhere else in the Town. More than that: The “Foundation,” in addition to building the desired spaces, will have to pay the State of New York for the basic development costs of the land on which the buildings will sit. Moreover, it will be necessary that architecture for the project meet the very rigid (and costly architectural to comply with) vocabulary of the rest of x- the campus. Most important; The project must be the State is not fiscally sound putting into it one cent. This means that- money must be — borrowed from local banks. These institutions require that first class tenants be contracted with, that these tenants have reasonably long leases, and that they be provided with certain assurances so that the success of me project can be reasonably predicted. (I also should note- that one of the constraints specified by both State University and by the Town of Amherst is that the store operators will be prohibited from actively seeking “outside” buyers of their goods and services.) I am aware of the fact that Mr. Roblin, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the University at Buffalo Foundation, has written you a letter detailing the history of the project (Parcel “B”)-" He also reaffirmed in his letter the willingness of the UB/F to act as the developer. It would be inappropriate for me to add anything to that communication. I do feel, however, that it is both proper and desirable for me generally to remark more concerning the developing role of the UB/F at Buffalo, and the potential that exists because of the good will and hard work of that group of dedicated citizens of The merger of the University Buffalo into the State University of New York was not favorably received by all alumni; and for the fust one-half dozen or so years thereafter, fund raising at SUNYAB was anything but spectacular. Just as things looked like they might get underway, the student riots of the late 60’s occurred. You know what that did. When I assumed office in June of 1970, the fund raising of the Foundation ability (measured in actual obtained dollars) was close to zero, even though a considerable amount had been spent in consulting fees in an effort to see just where the potential existed. Over the past six years there has been built, slowly and steadily, a base of private giving that shows promise of becoming truly significant. All categories of giving are now increasing at a rate of about 20 percent yearly, and it won’t be too long before we should see real enrichment from those activities. (Ypu probably read in one of our recent releases that we just successfully completed a special purpose $200,000 fund raising effort for highly sophisticated equipment for the School of Dentistry program at Childrens Hospital.) The Foundation also is starting to provide that “other” assistance referred to above. The Parcel “B” development is one example of this. (Here the Foundation will have to go out-on-the-limb and guarantee the required funds.) The Foundation also has been negotiating for two separate housing projects for married students one near the Main Street Campus, the other across the road from the Amherst site. Should these eventuate, we would time for. the first reasonable-rent, married student housing. The lack of this in the past has influenced our ability to attract the best students. of question The student membership on the Board of the of , — UB/F Corporation was extensively discussed, and Mr. Jackalone and The Spectrum know this. In short, it was the unanimous conclusion of the members of thp Board considering (after several alternatives) that this was not the way for interested groups to provide input into decision-making concerning those types of activities. Rather, an advisory committee should be consisting formed of representatives of all user groups. I, personally, am strongly in with agreement the Board’s ' - position. In closing what is obviously too long a letter, 1 will state to you the same concern that 1 expressed to Jim Kelly the other day. I am seriously concerned as to how long I can keep the interest of the members of the Foundation on the Parcel 4,B” project. They are all busy executives that allot their times and efforts on the bases of probable success. I sense that they are quite frustrated with the bureaucratic workings of the State they have been trying to get this project off the ground for more than a year. Continued delays cannot but have an their attitude influence on towards the whole Foundation effort. — Very truly yours, Robert L.

On top of that, the Bulls have Although Buffalo beat Geneseo not beaten the Bengals in nine 102-92 in basketball action at year. Three years ago, the Bulls Clark Hall Saturday night, the were hoping for a bid to the final score wasn’t indicative of the National Invitation Tournament way the-game was played. The (N.I.T.) while, the Bengals were overwhelmed ending one of their worst years. simply Bulls Geneseo. They led by as much as Buffalo State upset Buffalo to kill twenty-four points before the whatever slim N.I.T. chances the Knights came back in the final Bulls had. Two years ago, the few minutes against the Bulls’ game went into double overtime reserves. Buffalo is now 10—15 before Buffalo State squeaked out the win, and last year the Bengals for the year. most of the won a hotly contested ballgame Doing overwhelming for Buffalo was by six points. Nevertheless, Richardson was senior co-captain Otis Horne. Horne, playing in his final home viewing it as just another game. by Paige Miller ' pumped in 30 points, dished off for a career high of ten assists, and pulled down 12 rebounds. Buffalo coach Leo Richardson, who usually starts all of the squad’s seniors in the last home game, said that Home deserved to start anyway, ahead of Ron McGraw. “In practice, he’s been working hard, much more so than Ron McGraw,” Richardson rtbted: Horne stated that since it was his last home game, he was ready to play. Although it wasn’t until ten minutes had gone by that he scored his first two points on two free-throws, he had picked up five of his assists by then, all to guard Larry Jones. “I was just hitting the open man,” was Horne’s understatement. With eighteen points in the second half, Horne closed in on the one thousand career point mark. He needs fourteen points in the Bulls’ last remaining game to become the fifth player in history to score that many points for Buffalo. Towards the end of the game, Richardson jumped off the bench and shouted, “Give the ball to Otie.” Richardson acknowledged that he knew Horne was closing in on 1000 points, but also said, “He had the hot hand, that’s why I wanted him to shoot.” “All we want to do is win,” he said. “We’re not concerned with the Big Four or a nine-year winning streak.” Richardson is not expecting a the affair like high-scoring Gencseo game. “I look for them to play conservatively,” he said. Home felt that Buffalo should be able to beat State, “if we come to play,” referring to the fact that several times this year Buffalo has not been mentally ready for games. Lastly, the Bengals were only able to defeat Geneseo by five points, while Buffalo’s win over the Knights was much stronger than the ten point margin suggests. everybody played well according to Thomas. The passing but and fast breaks worked almost perfectly, as Buffalo lead at the half by a score of 32—25. Trapper and Frazier poured in 12 straight points in the beginning of the second half before Bulls’ forward Pam Tellocfe, who had replaced Nan Harvey, got hot and scored six more points. Frazier continued to dazzle the audience with her long outside shots and fast break baskets to give her a total of 18 points in the game. Trapper ended up with 19 and Tellock with 10. The final score was 66—50. Revenge! Thomas was very pleased with her team’s performance. “This was the best game they’ve played all season,” she declared. The were especially happy about the victory in view of the fact that they had been invited to the New York State Division H Championships instead of Canisius, who had beaten Buffalo by 27 points earlier in the season. “We had to prove that the invitation wasn’t a gift,” Harvey invited to the New York State Division II Championships instead of Canisius, who had beaten Buffalo by 27 points earlier in the season. “We had to prove that the invitation wasn’t a gift,” Harvey said. The game against Buffalo State Saturday night was anticlimatic in comparison. The outcome was players in doubt as Buffalo completely dominated the play. The Bulls’ offense was again superb, but the defense didn’t get much of a chance to prove itself as Buffalo seemed content to work for shots on the outside without much driving. Nan Harvey made up for her poor performance the night before with a series of high arcing shots from the corner. “1 was relaxed and more confident,” she explained. “I said, This is my. shot, and it’s going in.’ Tellock came off the bench again, to replace Frazier, and continued her excellent relief work. Clyde O’Malley and Trapper had their usual impressive defensive statistics, with six steals for the former and 16 rebounds and 8 blocks for the latter. Three players ended up in double figures. Trapper with 20, Harvey with 18, and Tellock with 12. The team now has a two week the State layoff before Tournament begins March 11 at Hartwick. Thomas thinks the layoff will help more than hurt the team. She mentioned that some of the players have been sick never ” Sandy recently (Barb Fislar, Eynon, Marilyn Dellwardt) and added, “The break will give them a chance to rest, so they can come back physically well.” The victory in the Big Four should also help. “Now that they know they can put together back-to-back wins it should give them some more confidence,” she concluded. game, It Sounds Incredible ‘ A sea of rebounds Richardson was pleased with the entire team’s performance. The Bulls front line of Horne, Sam Robinson and Sam Pellom combined for 52 rebounds, more than the entire Geneseo team. But that’s not that much of a surprise since Buffalo is third in the nation in average rebounding margin. The Bulls’ guard, Jones, senior Domzalski and reserve Donald Scott, each contributed scoreing figure double Jones’ twenty performances. points was particularly impressive since he played only sixteen minutes. Domzalski had nine assists, while Scott tied Horne for game honors with four steals. The Bulls’ one game remaining, against cross-town rival Buffalo State on Wednesday night, will decide the Big Four basketball championship.

Page eleven �irs Commentary Varsity teams suffer cuts by David J. Rubin Sports Editor Chess team wins first match of the season 1 1 C A very disconcerting change of opinion has occurred within Student Association (SA) and the Athletic Department. The Athletic Department Budget request for 1976-77 which was passed by the Finance Committee last week calls for the elimination of track, cross country and fencing as varsity sports. The Finance Committee vote was 4-1-1 to eliminate the three sports, and to reallocate the funds to men’s intercollegiate athletics. This decision shows a lack_pf understanding on the part of the members of the Finance Committee and of the Athletic Department budget planners. explained that continuation of the three sports would have meant hiring new coaches at too great an expense. Track coach Jim McDonough left Buffalo for Ohio State earlier this year, and Sidney Schwartz and Jim Marchant, the past two fencing coaches, have not been full-time faculty members. Other alternatives? But Robert Cohen, the lone dissenter on the Finance Committee and former cross-country runner, could not understand the committee’s vote. “I don’t see why we should pay more for fewer teams,” he said, adding that he believes possible alternatives were not investigated. It is truly hard to believe that after last year’s desperate fight by Clark Hall to save every team, the same people are now complacent enough to let three teams fall by the wayside. I have always believed that the education and experience aspects of intercollegiate sports are of utmost importance in an intercollegiate athletics program, especially when finances are as tight as they have been at Buffalo in recent years.

The club received only $50 from the Student Association (SA) for the spring semester, much to the dismay of Lamensdorf. He claims that the chess boards 1 and pieces are deficient in quality and that the club’s meager budget prevents it from providing refreshments at practice and transportation to and from tournaments. Yet, he cites lack of participation as the greatest problem facing the club. Although its roster contains 37 names, only about 15 or 20 of them attend each practice. The team is presently planning a trek to Syracuse, intending to stop over for matches with colleges such as Geneseo and Rochester. It also trying to coordinate a contest with theTonawanda Chess Club. i The Dig event on its calendar, however, is a match which is to take $lace on the 21st of March against a group of Attica Prison inmates. Organized by Rich Horowitz, it promises to be a rewarding experience for both the inmates and team members. Also encouraging is the fact that SA has agreed to supply an additional $50 for the trip. Before Syracuse and Attica, though, the team is arranging a more convenient match with Buffalo State. The club meets on Thursdays from 8-11 p.m. in Room 244 Norton Hall and all are welcome. ; Children’s Optical isn't just kid stuff Emergency repair service 'on Wire & Plastic frames Contact Lens fitting & cleaning Complete selection ofadult frames.

SUNY told us to reduce that request to 12-13 percent and it didn’t even appear on the Governor’s Budget,” he claimed. Ketter said this has been a major priority of the Council for the three years, but has past repeatedly been eliminated from the budget. In a rare public appearance Robert Wednesday, President Ketter said his role as president is restricted by state bureaucracy and law. Speaking before over 100 people at a forum on graduate education in the Conference Theater, Ketter explained there is little he can do to prevent further cutbacks in the SUNY budget. ‘The Board of Trustees is the University; they define who does Repeats position what at what level, and the Addressing himself to the president is responsible for what demands of the Graduate Student happens at his campus,” Ketter Employees Union (GSEU), Ketter said. He termed the Trustees a repeated his position that he “rigorous autocracy,” and cannot recognize the organization identified his role as a manager. until it has been recognized by the “SUNY is a managed Public Employees Relations Board institution,” and is not (PERB). “1 do not employ you,” immediately accountable to the Ketter told the grad students faculty and students at individual emphatically. campuses, he said. The president’s He said the salary increase, job is to try to keep things going, views restoration of lines and insurance despite conflicting presented by various demanded by the GSEU was brought before Albany officials constituencies, Ketter added. He said he has been forced to cut and denied. The request for more than 100 lines again and accident and liability insurance that restoration would be virtually for Teaching and Graduate Assistants, he noted, were impossible. considered the blame for “benefits” and could Ketter placed cuts in aid to graduate students on not be provided by SUNY. According to Ketter, sentiment in Albany favors tuition assistance for students in private institutions rather than support for public schools. Citing Lieutenant Governor Mary Ann Krupsak as a supporter of that policy, he recounted the findings of the Commission on Educational Institutions in Financial Distress, chaired by former Harvard President Nathan Pussey. Ketter himself served on that Commission which called for increased aid to private schools while finding public institutions in sound financial conditions. Media campaign who attached a opinion to the Commission’s report, plans to launch a media campaign this week calling for increased support of public higher education. “This is a tactical decision, and I will make appropriate noises for the minds of legislators in Albany,” he said. He will be appearing on several talk shows on local radio stations, and will make other public appearances. Ketter, - dissenting Questioned about the recently report from' the released Academic "Planning Committee, Ketter replied, “No university can venture and that it grew much have equal strength in all areas. I larger than anticipated. Ketter also said he has and will do not expect any substantial increase in funding, so we must continue to support a health care restrictively allow growth to occur service for students on this in those areas of most strength.” campus, and blamed' SUNY He emphasized that this was an Chancellor Ernest Boyer for any interim report, and it is by no attempts to reduce it. “He finals its (Boyer) wanted to reduce health means in recommendations. care spending to approximately Ketter repeated his position $5 per student, better than an 80 towards student services, saying percent reduction from the $27 he will defend them only if an currently spent,” Ketter observed. Most observers said Ketter educational basis for their existence is shown. He said the revealed little new or constructive problem with the Record Coop information. “Ketter was was that it did not submit reports diplomatic and really didn’t say 4 and financial records, as called for anything at all,” one listener in his initial approval of the noted. • Ketter asks Trustees to vote on Parcel JB contract by Richard Kerman pay full taxes to the Town of Amherst, pay for development of the land and meet the costly architectural style of the campus. He added that one of the constraints specified by both the State University and the Town of Amherst is that store operators be prohibited from actively seeking “outside” Managing Editor President Robert Ketter indicated to members of the State University Board of Trustees that he does not support student representation on the Board of Directors of the UBF Corporation which is overseeing commerical development of the Amherst Campus. In a letter to Trustees Manly Fleischmann and William Hassett, D. urging the Trustees not to delay work on the Parcel B project any longer, Ketter also defends his questioning of services funded with mandatory student fees against criticism that has been voiced on this campus in recent weeks. Ketter directed his response mainly to a proposal sent to Mrs. Maurice Moore, chairman of the SUNY Trustees, by former Student Association President Frank Jackalone, requesting them to provide at least one third student membership on the UBF Corporation Board of Directors and describing in part the Ketter administration’s questioning of student services here. KetteT said arguments advanced by Jackalone and The Spectrum for student membership both incorrectly reason that the “clientele of interest” in the University is primarily students, “students have limited funds” and (like FSA operations) since “the Parcel exists on State property, then profits must be kept to an absolute minimum and the store operators must respond to the desires of the Student x Body.” Nothing could be further from reality,” Ketter .. wrote State land Ketter said the prinicipal reason for denying student membership is that the project must fiscally sound. This means that money must be borrowed from local banks, who require that “first class” tenants be contracted for reasonably long periods of time and that certain assurances of the project’s success be provided. Although the 'Parcel is on “State land” and is owned by the University, Ketter said the UBF Corporation must customers. Ketter noted that the question of student membership on th" Board was “extensively discussed, and Mr. Jackalone and The Spectrum know this.” After considering several alternatives, Ketter said the members of the Board decided this (student membership) was not the way for interested groups to provide input into decision making on those types of activities, and that a representative advisory board should be formed instead. “I, personally, am strongly in agreement with the Board’s position.” „ Sympathy The SUNY Trustees have in previous years been sympathetic to increased student representation on Faculty Student Associations (FSA), which preside over food service, bookstore, and other operations on state campuses. Last year, the Trustees welcomed a non-voting student to the SUNY Board for the first time. In his letter to the Chairman of the Board, Jackalone said that Ketter had made a complete reversal of what was formerly a favorable position toward student services. “The net effect is that the previous constructive energy of these students is now being channeled into growing open hostility. Indeed, even the apathetic students of the past are now visibly angry,” he wrote. Ketter said the reason for this open hostility is innacurate reporting in The Spectrum. “Much of what is going on is either not reported or they choose not to print the whole story. It’s also now time for student elections; and ... things will probably get worse rather than better insofar as accuracy of reporting is concerned.” Ketter did not elaborate further. Ketter said in each instance he has questioned a j service, students have claimed they were not bound by decisions made by their predecessors. Even when that claim is not openly made, he wrote, the problem still exists because by the time a project gets off the ground it is not unusual for those who originally entered into an agreement to have left the University. “Another reason for Frank’s position,” Ketter noted, “one that comes through loud and clear in his letter and that is now frequently and openly stated on this campus, is that: ‘Now that we have a SASU representative on the Board of Trustees, and for all intents and purposes the President does not, we can get whatever we want through that Body.’ In his letter, Ketter gives a chronology of the separate student services that he has questioned: buses to an Attica defendant support rally in Albany last spring, the SA Record Coop, and the Sub Board Pharmacy. ” ‘As we see fit’ Kettcr said all those who contacted SUNY officials in Albany for redress against the temporary closing of the Record Coop were almost all answered in the same way: “Unless it can be clearly justified within an educational context, such a Coop is not legitimate. On this campus, however, the cry still exists: ‘The Student Union is our space. We will use it as we see fit.’ This is again being coupled with ‘compulsory fees are our money, no one can tell us how/or for what purpose/we can spend them.’ ” Ketter explained that he has been meeting with officers of the various student associations, Sub Board, members of the Office of Student Affairs, and their attorneys as part of an effort to correct the situation. He reported that a subcommittee of the larger group, composed of students and administrators, are currently developing a draft position paper on /‘Fiscal Accountability and Reporting.” He expected that other subcommittees would evolve as work proceeded. The complete text of Ketter’s letter will appear in Monday's issue of The Spectrum. �Symptoms of flu are sweeping the campus The flu is about the one thing everyone around here has in common these days. Luther Musselman, acting director of the University Health Service, explained that a Type A influenza virus has been isolated in the University laboratories. Symptoms of Type A influenza indude sore throat, headaches, high fever and occasionally, nausea. Because the virus has an incubation period of one or two days, people that have it may not even be aware of it. While it is highly contagious, the primary source of infection seems to be the classrooms, Musselman said. The incidence of influenza has not reached epidemic proportions, although the number of in-patients is double the average for this time of year. However, the number of students infected has started to level off, said Musselman. f ayt Sunday night extra beds were needed in the infirmary to handle additional patients. Due to cutbacks, maintenance men were unavailable for moving the beds down from the fourth floor. Luckily, the following Monday, student volunteers were found to move the beds. “Thanks to the student volunteers, we didn’t have to turn anybody away,*’ Musselman said. Two health service doctors were also victims of the sickness, due to increased working hours and extensive contact with so many influenza sufferers. Both elected to recuperate at home rather than in the infirmary, however. Spring it still officially a month away, but at far at mott people are concerned, there's nothing wrong with it starting early. Temperatures this week soared as hi0i as 60 degrees which is rather remarkable considering just three weeks ago, the mercury hit 11 below. A veritable heat wave in the month of February.

Circulation average: 15,000 by Diane Gitlin Spectrum Staff Writer The plan for Equal Employment Opportunity was put into effect at this University on March 10, 1975. Since then. Affirmative Action officers believe a “sincere effort” has been made to insure equal opportunities in the recruitment and hiring of employees here. Federal guidelines define an affirmative action program as a set of specific procedures used to achieve the goal of equal employment opportunity. However, the objectives of the affirmative action program on this campus extend beyond employment encompassing admissions, housing, practices, work/study programs and other aspects of campus and community life as well. Responsible for bringing the University into full compliance with equal opportunity policies, the Office of Affirmative Action and Human Resources activated in Development (AA/HRD) was September, 1975 in accordance with federal regulations. That office, which is a consolidation of Minority Faculty Recruitment and Promotions, Women’s Recruitment and Promotions, Office of Equal Opportunity, and Minority Student Affairs, is headed by Jesse Nash. UAR Complying with policies According to Nash, “all of the vice presidents at this University are responsible for affirmative action programs in their own areas.” However AA/HRD assists departments and programs in complying with the proper anti-discriminatory policies. Nash indicated that affirmative action alone cannot eliminate discrimination but it will require a change in people’s attitudes. He said even if everyone is given an equal chance for employmapt based solely on qualifications, society does not give certain groups the same opportunity to acquire the education and training needed to qualify. As part of its plan to implement affirmative action, AA/HRD will undertake a work force analysis in the near future to determine whether women and minorities are underutilized in specific jobs at"this University. The analysis is required by federal regulations once a year and the results should be available in approximately one month. Ger uate Equal opportunity employer Present attempts being made to publicize the affirmative action policy include incorporating it into the University’s mission statement and job description, preparing i manual on affirmative action for general distribution and a brochure on affirmative action research for the administration. All want ads state that l&is University is an equal opportunity employer and all job applicants and potential employees are informed of this policy. Open communication with Buffalo community Page two The Spectrum Friday, 27 February 1976 . . enables AA/HRD to provide University search committees with prospective candidates for a particular position and information on methods that can be used to recruit women and minorities. Affirmative action search procedures may include advertisements through media most likely to reach the desired minority and women audiences, and attempts to secure rosters of qualified minority and women candidates from organizations within a discipline or professional field. In the case of a faculty vacancy, the Authorization to Recruit (ATR) is filled out by the appropriate departmental chairman. The ATR states the qualifications required for the vacant position and the specific affirmative action search procedures that will be used to identify and recruit candidates. The ATR must be approved by the Provost or Health Science Dean and then the appropriate vice president before faaulty recruiting groups fnay begin. Search procedures Once the search committee for a new faculty member has identified the candidates, the appropriate departmental chairman fills out the Search Procedure Report (SPR) and submits it to the appropriate Provost or Health Science Dean for approval. If the SPR isn’t approved, search procedures may have to be started again. If approved, both the ATR and SPR are submitted for review to the President’s Panel for the Review of Search Procedures. The SPR must not only include data on all of the job applicants, but also documentation of the affirmative action search procedures that were followed. For example, copies of each advertisement published, written requests for assistance and their responses, and brief notes of'telephone conversations and personal contacts must be included. Within 72 hours, the Panel’s recommendation of approval or disapproval of the faculty hiring and the SPR are transmitted to the Vice President of Academic Affairs or Health Sciences for their final decision. “We have identified as one of our objectives to make an effort to educate,” stated Sara Cicarelli, Co-Chairperson of the President’s Panel for the Review of Search Procedures. The Panel provides the search committee with information on groups to contact for candidate referrels. Should the search committee fail to indicate in want ads that this University is an equal opportunity employer, the Panel will let it by the first time and inform the committee that it is required by law to do so. The President’s Panel is composed of members from the faculty and non-teaching professionals.

Social Sciences Provost. Donald Godlberg, an attorney retained by Social Work students to defend their position, claimed that the students had a clear case of Promissory Hsloppel, since they had entered the school with the understanding that the program was "pending accreditation.” The students at the meeting presented evidence proving that the University knew of the decision not to seek accreditation months before the public was informed. __ Drawn-out lawsuit The lawsuit against the University would have been long and drawn-out, said Butler, and “by th6 time the case would have been closed, it would have been too late to request a visit by the accreditation team.” Butler also speculated that the Social Work officials were aware of the students’ evidence for some time, but “they liever realized the students would most likely win after a judge who is unfamiliar with the University administration and procedures reviewed the ease." Upper division Social Work students began their fight for accreditation last November, despite the fact that the program is scheduled to be eliminated in June, 1977. Merle had formerly contended that since the program was going to be phased out. it would have a hard time gaining accreditation anyway. The students argued, however, that the departments’ accreditation is essential to their future, especially in terms of gaining admission to graduate school and professional careers, and that the University should, therefore, at least try. With Goldberg present at the meeting, the students finally convinced Merle to change his mind. Ketter also agreed, and since that lime, a formal request to the Council on Social Work Education for accreditation evaluation has been processed. Optimism While _ Merle was unavailable for comment, undergraduate coordinator Gerald Miller expressed satisfaction with the outcome of the meeting. “The decision will boost the morale of the students tremendously." he said, adding that he is optimistic about the results ol the accreditation evaluation. Butler would not speculate on the outcome of the evaluation, but he did not feel that the department’s upcoming elimination would significantly harm its chances for accreditation. I CB| I JTI S.A. Speakers | Bureau j MEETING | | Today (Friday) j l at 4:00 pm 205 Norton Union J i The devastating earthquake in Guatemala, killing thousands of people and leaving many others homeless, has moved PODER, the Puerto Rican Student Organization to organize a clothing drive on campus. Nayda Benitez, treasurer of PODER, arranged the drive in order to help improve the situation that is now prevalent in Guatemala. Members of PODER are approaching students on campus and others in the Buffalo community, appealing for donations of clothing. They are also soliciting contributions, which will go towards the shipping costs of the goods. Similar relief efforts are going on all over this country. The situation is slowly improving Relief has been pouring in from Nicaragua, the United States, Canada, many South American countries, and the Soviet Union, among others. � The earthquake occufted on February 4, taking the lives of over 20,000 people, wounding 66,000 and leaving over one million homeless. The consequences of the quake were disastrous, levelling homes and buildings and causing landslides and huge cracks in the ground. Catastrophe The earthquake spread across 2000 miles of the country, from Southern Mexico down to Honduras and El Salvador. The cities and towns of Joyabaj, Chimaltenango, Zaragosa, Patzicia, Comalapa, and Elprogreso were nearly totally destroyed, with property losses ranging from 75 to 98 percent. The quake severed many of the transportation routes, thus causing scarcity of food and water. Road and landing conditions also made it difficult to bring in the emergency medical supplies. Portable hospitals were flown in from the United Tec pan, States, staffed with doctors and desperately needed vaccines to prevent the spread of typhoid. Without these immunizations, officials fear there would have been wide outbreaks of epidemics in the aftermath of the earthquake. The dead were buried at once in mass graves. The catastrophe did not end with the first earthquake, for 800 tremors of varying degrees were additionally reported. Temporary camps were set up for some of the homeless, while others put up their own make-shift tents. Many were forced to live in the streets, amidst the rubble of the city. In addition to the clothing drive, there will be a carnival held in the Fillmore Room on February 27 to raise funds for Guatemala. The carnival will provide dancing music and refreshments for a charge of $2.00 per student and $3.00 for others. It is sponsored by the Italian Club, UUAB, PODER and the Brazilian Club, with all proceeds going towards Guatemala. Trustees okay UBF contract The SUNY Board of Trustees approved a 62 page ground contract Wednesday that authorizes the UB Foundation. Incorporated, to begin development of commerical enterprises on the Amherst Campus. The contract leases the l3!4 acre state-owned Parcel B site to the UB Foundation for an initial term of 40 years with two 10 year options to renew. Planned development for the area includes 70.000 square feet of stores, including a 150 room hotel, and 20,000 square feet of office space. The projected completion date for Parcel B is September, 1977. Bob Kirkpatrick, President of the Student Association of the State University (SASU) and the one non-voting student member of the Board of Trustees, said he moved “non-consideration” of the resolution until students were ensured sufficient on the UB Foundation representation “sub-corporation” that is handling Parcel B development. His motion, which was seconded by one Board member, was voted down and the resolution passed The Trustees were willing to delay action on the lease three weeks ago at the request of Kirkpatrick to allow the Student Association (SA) here more time to negotiate with the Foundation. However, Kirkpatrick said pressure by businessmen from the Buffalo area, in addition to a 10 page letter sent to Board members, Manly Fleishmann and William D. Hassett, Jr., by President Robert Ketter (see story on page 1), induced the Trustees to make their decision. The contract must now receive final approval from SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer before it becomes effective. Boyer was absent from the Trustees meeting Wednesday, the first time he has missed a meeting since he became Chancellor, due to a bout with monomucleosis. Kirkpatrick says students still have one more chance to secure seats on the DBF Corporation Board of Directors by appealing to the Chancellor before he signs the contract.

While placing his hopes in a “no confidence” vote on the Faculty Senate, Michael Fishman also attacked that policy-making body. He indicated that prior to the campus turmoil of the late 60’s and early 70’s, the Faculty Senate was more akin to a “New England town meeting.” In the aftermath of student unrest and administration insecurity, it has been transformed into an elitist, closed-door body, composed mostly of tenured faculty and high level administrators, he remarked. Abbey Tiger, Women’s Studies College (WSC) representative condemned University patronizing of vested business interests, saying that the proper orientation of this institution should be “towards addressing student interests.” She asserted that “free access” is the catchword for student freedom. - Political decisions Barney Oursler indicated that the Academic Planning Committee’s use of the phrase “Maintain at the present level” when referring to the funding level of various departments, means “absolutely nothing.” The administration’s standpoint towards the Philosophy Department is a case in fact, he said. Although the planning committee recommends that Philosophy be “maintained at its present level,” many junior and possibly as many as six tenured faculty may be fired. The Philosophy Department has low priority in the administrations’ eyes, he said. Oursler maintained that the department college eliminations, both blatant and subtle, are political in nature. “They are not qualitative dollars and cents decisions.” Similar political decisions can be discerned in the higher realms of the 1977 New pockets. York State budget where human services are slated Oursler asserted that GSEU spokesman Barney for the steepest cuts, he added. undergraduates receive the brunt of administration Industry, he asserted, is responsible for most of and student services abuse in terms of cutbacks in emphasis upon faculty publishing rather than today’s fiscal problems, “yet they are the sector that teaching excellence.

For a multi-color glimpse of Eternity, that most awesome and mystic of Beings, is but one thin copper quarter away in issue 13, “April 1976, of Dr. Strange: Master of the Mystic Arts. If Eternity is too heavy for you, perhaps yob would prefer a talking duck, Howard’s the name, who has grappled with Gorko, the Man-Frog, vanquished a vampire cow, trounced a turnip from another galaxie, and dreams of being Killmallard. But then, if you don’t know who Killraven is, you’ll have no idea of the significance of Killmallard. You see, after H.G. Wells’s martians invaded H.G. Wells’s earth, and were defeated by the common cold, they developed an antidote, came back, and proceeded to hunt down the remaining earthlings. From their midst, a leader arose. His name was Killraven, and a mighty warrior was he. continuing and The complete multi-colored saga of this stalwart defender of human dignity is to be found, again at the mere price of one thin quarter (though it’s going up by a nickel soon, so buy now), in Amazing Adventures, featuring Killmven. Obviously enough, Howard the Duck is a Killraven fan, and so dreams of being Killmallard. You dig? Wonderful! World If not, that can only be because you, you poor benighted, child of an unwashed camel driver, must be unaware of the wonder-full world of MAR VEL COMICS. Only Marvel would pluck a duck from another universe, stuff his beak full of stogies and wise-cracks about talking naked apes, plant him in lovely Cleveland by the slimey shores of the nighty Cuyahoga River, and then use him as a vehicle for satirizing Marvel Comics. trapped in a world he never Howard made! is presently (issue 3, May 1976) Shang-Op, Master of Quak Fu. Under the guidance of Master C’Haai. Howard became a master in a mere three hours and seventeen minutes and went out to rescue the beautiful Beverly from Count Macho a martial arts master given to beating up on little kids. As he does this Howard is dressed in red silk pajamas, just like those which belong to Shang-Chi, Master ofKung Fu, who spends much of his time fighting Fu Manchu. If all this fantasy bothers you, check out the current issue of Master of Kung Fu (May ’76) where you will find a character who looks like Marlon Brando and another — — who looks like Sean Connery; If that’s still too fantastic, then take a look at Super-Villain Team-Up for June ’76. Here you’ll see Henry Kissinger conclude a secret deal with Dr. Doom, one of the archvillaina of Marveldom whose sole desire is to rule the world. Irradiated freaks You see, the world of Marvel Comics is indeed large and its inhabitants are various. Spider-Man, numero uno in the line, was plain old Peter Parker before he was accidentally bitten by a spider which had been exposed to excessive radiation. Radiation turned Dr. Reed Richards, Ben Grimm, Susan Storm, and Johnny Storm into the esemplastic (for you fans of STC) Mr. Fantastic, the lumpy orange Thing, the Invisible Girl and the Human Torch, respectively. And good old gamma rays turned brilliant Bruce Banner into the huge, stupid, green Incredible Hulk and wearing they call him old jade jaws raggedy purple pants. While the Marvel universe contains many more irradiated freaks, some of their people were born weird, and others worked hard to be worthy of inclusion in this universe. The mighty Thor was born an immortal, he can’t help it if, among mortals, he has super-powers. Captain is Marvel the man without a world from the Kree Universe, one of their mightiest warriors. The Vision is an android and was constructed to have the ability to alter his molecular density at will. Dr. Strange gained his mystic powers through years of tutelage under the guidance of the all-wise Ancient One. A list of all the characters in the Marvel Universe would stretch on, through Conan the Barbarian, and on, through the blind Daredevil, through Werewolf by Night, to Dracula, the Man-Thing, and on and on and on. Some of them are normal looking, for the men, this means enormous muscles, and for the women, lots of tits ’n ass.

Deathlok is a cyborg and he makes the six million dollar man seem like an overgrown cubscout. Deathlok is more metal than flesh, and he is ugly. He was not-in-the-least-bit-objective created as a superweapon by one Major Ryker. “If we’re going to win this war, we need soldiers who won't get splattered over the battlefield! We need super-soldiers men with' bodies of steel and minds of computer precision! Men who function with the infallibility and fearlessness of machines.

State Correction Commission chairman is under scrutiny by Randi B. Toler Special to the Spectrum Herman Schwartz, long time prison reform advocate, and former law professor here, is being questioned by the Senate Committee on Crime and Corrections to determine whether his position as Chairman of the State Commission on Corrections should be confirmed. Schwartz, supported by the New York State Coalition for Criminal Justice and many reknowned prison reformers, has been under scrutiny because of two of his actions taken since he was appointed as Commissioner by Governor Carey last August. Senator Ralph J. Marino, Chairman of the Committee, questioned Schwartz on his policy of hiring ex-offenders to the commission’s staff, and his proposed minimum standards for visitation, mailing and other privileges. Upset by the fact that Schwartz has hired ex-offenders to the commission who are still on parole, Marino charged that this was too great a risk to take both to ex-offender and to the security of the prison. While Schwartz insisted that ex-offenders did not visit prison facilities alone, and that they had no opportunity to ask for blueprints of the prison, he agreed that the hiring of parolees might be a dangerous problem. > Questioning Mason expressed satisfaction with their work. Schwartz’ minimum standards on visitation call for the providing of contact visits for pre-trial detainees. This would relate only to local facilities, since federal have already been prisons mandated to do so by the courts. In a part of his forty page statement to the Senate Committee, he explained the rationale behind these minimum standards. “These are the matters which affect the inmate’s relations and ultimate reintegration with the outside community. The average inmate of a local facility will not stay there very long. It is thus especially important to maintain his links with his family, friends, and the community. As United States Attorney General Levi recently observed, study after study, in New York, California, and elsewhere have shown that the maintenance of family and community links is crucial to reintegration of the inmate into the community and to reducing recidivism. This is especially true for the large number of pre-trial detainees who may never be sentenced to prison. All of the proposed standards “mandated by governing court relate, directly or indirectly, to decisions or are recommended by either the National Advisory that.” Schwartz went on to say that Commission on Criminal Justice all of the standards are either Standards and Goals, the National S.A. - Schwartz, age 44, is a graduage of Harvard Law School, and until his appointment had been teaching law here.

Legislature votes to ban the Concorde The New York State Legislature voted Monday to ban the British-French Concorde supersonic airliner (SST) from landing at New York City’s Kennedy Airport U.S. Secretary of Transportation William Coleman had ruled earlier this month that the Concorde could start limited landings at Kennedy and at Dulles Airport near Washington, D.C., beginning in about two weeks. Coleman stipulated, however, that the plane could not fly supersonically over the U.S. The bill, which was phrased as a ban on airplanes louder than 108 decibels during take-offs and landings, passed the Assembly 139-4 and was approved 46-10 by the Senate. Governor Hugh Carey has not yet signed the measure, but he has expressed “reservations” about the SST in the past. Any ban on SST landings at Kennedy Airport would require similar action by New Jersey, since all three New York City area airports arc run by the bi-state Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. < Controversy Controversy over allowing landings of foreign SSTs has been growing since the U.S. Senate voted in 1971 to halt development of the American SST. However, the Concorde only began making commercial flights in the past several months. Senate Minority Leader Manfred Ohrenstein (D., Manhattan), rebutting charges that an SST ban would be unfair to two American allies, said the U.S. had no obligation to support any project “which is simply not justified and not necessary.” John Caemmerer (R., Queens), the Senate sponsor of the bill, said constitutents who live near Kennedy Airport are alrtady upset at noise from subsonic jets. The additional noise of the SST is unacceptable to them, he said. bill Subsonic planes often produce more than 108 decibels, but the the limit. and Engineers gives them five years to be modified to meet the plane that asserted with the Concorde.have involved planners cannot be modified to such an extent, however. off In addition to high noise levels associated with an SST taking flight produces and landing, opponents emphasize that any supersonic cause other minor a “sonic boom,” which can crack windows and that the SST complained also property damage.

Fordand Carter winners in first Presidential primary Former Georgia governor Jimmy Carter and President Gerald Ford were the big winners in die New Hampshire presidential primary, as voters went to the polls for die first time this year in an effort to choose the next President of the United States. Carter, a former peanut farmer and nuclear submarine commander, won the Democratic “beauty contest” with a 30 percent share of the vote, followed by former congressman Morris Udall of Arizona with 24 percent. Senator Birch Bayh of Indiana was third with 16 percent. The Republican race, which attracted most of the press attention and over 100,000 voters, was taken by Ford by a spread of 51 percent to 49 percent for his opponent, former California governor Ronald Reagan. The Ford win is regarded by many national political observers as an upset of sorts, since most polls had shown Reagan ahead. Ron Nessen, the President’s press secretary, noted that Reagan had a big lead two weeks before the balloting, but that the two trips Ford made to New Hampshire for campaigning appeared to cut into that lead considerably. Long summer Nessen also pointed out that Reagan had spent 21 days campaigning in New Hampshire, which Nessen labeled as his stronghold among the Northern states, while Ford spent only four days there. For his part, Reagan asserted that, “One primary does not a summer make.” He claimed a “victory in New Hampshire, based on his announced goal of 40 percent and his 49 percent performance. In the area of delegate selection, Ford scored a resounding triumph, securing 19 of the 21 Republican spots available. The Democratic primary ended up with Carter several on top by a fairly secure margin, l?ut candidates also claimed victories. Udall insisted that viability of his his second place finish proved the candidacy, although he had the best organization in the state and was expected by many to do better than he did. Former Senator Fred Harris of Oklahoma finished fourth with only 11 percent, but he noted after the balloting that the other candidates were beginning to espouse his views on several issues, and that had hurt his own campaign. Shriver hurting One Democrat whose back is now up against the wall is Seargent Shriver, the party’s Vice-Presidential candidate in 1972. Shriver finished fifth with only 9 despite the fact that he is a Catholic and New Hampshire is a largely Catholic state. It is widely felt that if he cannot pick up any steam in his home state of Massachusetts in next week’s contest, his candidacy will be in serious trouble. Senator Hubert Humphrey, who has repeatedly stated that he is not a candidate (although he would accept a draft), was the beneficiary of a write-in campaign which netted 6 percent of the vote. Governor George Wallace of Alabama and Senator Henry Jackson of Washington, both announced candidates who did not campaign in New Hampshire, each collected 1 percent. The next three weeks will see all the announced Democratic candidates, including Wallace and Jackson, compete in the Massachusetts, Florida, and Illinois primaries. Carter, the current front-runner, will face a strong challenge from Wallace in Florida, and if he wins there, it could be very hard to stop him from winning the nomination in New York City this summer. - Friday, 27 February 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �Editorial - y/ote Biased report today Today is the last day to vote for Student Association officers, and we urge those of you who have not yet done so to cast your ballot before it's too late.

Seeds that God has sown are allowed to grow and be used by whomever deems it necessary. Even the use of certain strains of Basidionycetes sporophores (mushrooms), constituents of which are known to be highly toxic, is left up to the discretion of the individual.

Gonna Take a Miracle, which outing. last vinyl was Laura's 1971, in November R&B of classic reworkings consisted of The album and soul standards served up deftly by Laura and LaBelle. During thfe four year interim, reclusive silence, life style changes and an emotional and spiritual renewal have fueled and ordered Latjra's days as they aged and transmuted into months and then years. In the late 1960's Nyro was a virtual one woman song writing assembly line. The Fifth Dimension, Barbra Streisand and Three Dog Night all rode her compositions to the top of the charts. Laura had an intuitive knack for penning excellent pop songs. Aside from molding her own musical career, producing top calibre songs for other artists to cover, Nyro was a strong influencing factor on Todd Rundgren; especially his early albums which are brimming with Laura’s alluring pop presence and •emotional introspection. Ms. Nyro's music was renowned for its constant rhythmic tempo changes which charged the songs with a swaying intensity. Laura was also remarkable at using her voice like a jazz trumpet that had caught the quick of eternity in a fleeting, pulsing moment. Her utilization of vocal overdubs on EH and the Thirteenth Confession are sublime feats which are an artistic triumph in themselves. Finally, Laura could exude a sense of pein and emotional suffering with an authenticity that was as beautiful and rare as it was touching and frightening. Smile is Laura's re-entry into the medium she turned her back on four years ago. The record begins with Laura nervously whispering "It's strange" before launching into the opening cut, Smokey Robinson's "Sexy Mama." Gone are her predominant piano songs, in their place are jazz flavored melodic haiku. The horn work of the Brecker Brothers, Joe Farrell and George Young flutters like bio-energenic butterflies echoing a joyous catharsis. Laura has managed to temper her confessional powers with a strain of eatern intrigue. "Children of the Junks" and "Smile" are the most in their content and overtly oriental instrumentation. The latter seques into a coda in which an ethereal flute flirts with a koto, while the former concerns itself with a community of junks. But Laura hasn't forgotten the blues. "I am the Blues" and "Midnite Blues" summon musical lovers to penetrate through the barriers of loneliness and emotional armor. Throughout Smile is the undercurrent of&Kirageoutisurvival in a world where people "wheel. War and whitewash their days awayT "The Cat Song," a mesmerizing tune about Laura's cat named Eddie, purrs along on cat's paws and a feline sense of grace and spontaneity.

Through sexuality, spontaneity and connection with a natural rhythm, one gains a strength and peace not accessible by means of societal gamesmanship. Smile equates true Sexuality with peace. It is a peace which gives one the ability*#) carry on and embrace life. Laura's voice is modulated and evocative and not as manic as her previous recordings. She seems to have stumbled upon her own instinctual rhythm while gaining an insightful feminist maturity. Her lyrics are open ended and are full of enchanting snatches of imagery. "Smile,", the title tract, best conveys the ambience of the record; ' . 4' ir lovers light in the inn what am. they thinking? pattern, falling down the sky and the fire and the kiss of the cunt-tree nigh t your tender strong freaky love k» strangers and mountains are blurred in a snowfligh t mars in the stars mars is a nsm the world', insane but our love is a peace vibe . ‘ yes.

As man advanced his civilizing influences on the environment, and thereby on himself, the arts were used more for entertainment than anything else. The three arts reached their combined zenith with Houdini, Thurston and the Great Blackstone. The era of the traveling magician and his full evening's presentation of mystery is over. No more do the caravans of trucks pull up at the stage door with their strange cargos. No longer do beautiful women dressed in Oriental costumes tread the boards of the Hippodrome or the Erlanger. Having appeared with Blackstone at one point in my early teens, I naturally jumped at the chance to see The Magic Show, now appearing at the Studio Arena Theatre.

He is young, fresh and possessed a grin that would melt an old maid's heart. And he really tries to make everything work right.

N.Y. 14217 xic Too much Telly The most recent object of this media blitzkrieg is Telly Savalas. The most recent victims are we, the viewers. Savalas may be fins on Kojak as a tough-talking New York cop of Greek descent ("Kojak" is television's version of a Greek name what do I know, it's Slavic to me); but as television's answer tp the Renaissance man, he falls flat on his Tootsie Pop. Last week, if you had watched "Telly-vision," you could have caught (and dropped) Savalas no fewer than six times (to watch all of his appearances, you would have needed a TV Guide concordance) as he did everything but have a test pattern tattooed on the back of his head. In addition to Kojak, Savalas and his head appeared on alt three networks: on a variet special, a network movie and three talk shows (with Johnny Carson, Mike Douglas and Dinah Shore he was probably with Merv Griffin, too, but who cares?) on which he glibly and articulately plugged his variety special and network movie. Remember how the movie factories of the 1930's would send their actors to school to learn to sing and dance? Well, television, which never lets an opportunity to glory in its success over movies pass, is only too willing to show that its stars are not one-dimensional either. - — Kindergarten of the air Unfortunately, as we watched Savalas try to sing (talk his way through songs is more like it) and dance (Terpsichore renounced her Greek citizenship), it seemed as if television was conducting its school on the air and Telly baby failed. It really makes you appreciate stars (like Johnny Carson) who are content to stay with what they do well -and have the decency to keep their self-indulgent forays into other — fields off-camera. Savalas did do a creditable job as James Bond's arch-enemy in On Her Majest's Secret Service, a film he made a few years ago, pre-Kojak. What was interesting, though, was the way ABC, in its promotional announcements for the film's television revival, gave Savalas top billing, which was definitely not the case when the film was iTiade. Whenever television, with the same sense of pride that makes the successful author's mother show off his second-grade scribblings and the same embarrassment they cause the author resurrects films made by television stars when they were only supporting actors in films, the message is clear: "Look, movies, you had these guyrand you couldn't take advantage of them. Television can. Wyaaah." There is no question that, as the medium becomes increasingly aware of it's power to control, not only our consumer tastes, but our aesthetic tastes as well, it will continue to flex its media muscles and produce these over-extended ventures from stars who are unwilling to accept their talent limitations and who have never heard of the Peter V Principle. * — . i — EM SPECIAL Served Mon. thru Fri. | Until 11 a.m. and k> Sun. thru Thurs. y AFTER 9:00 p.m. Sun. thru Thurs. 3 BUTTERMILK PANCAKES TOAST PLUS 2 COUNTR' FRESH EGGS, as you like 'em I Look at the sky.

The church and its bastard offspring would, in fact, like to make us feel guilty about ourselves and our enjoyment of each other. Our capitalistic society cannot derive much profit from sex, so it goes along with the church and its supposedly moralistic teaching: "Make profits, not love." Fortunately, there are two things working against this dual assault on the human emotions. The first is the mind of man.

Having indulged in X-rated fantasies and, only occasionally, lifestyles, I will not hesitate to plunge into a few descriptions of some of the things I found to be interesting. If not titillating.

The second soloist, Wendy Braitirlan, accentuated and exaggerated Jacobson's image. Carried away with her own sensuality, growing wild, she suddenly snapped back to the machine motion. Her performance was extremely commendable. The alternating images of expression, then repression of expression, occurred over and over, ending with a temporary version of merging couples leaping upward in a Messianic message, only to turn once again into stiffly bound creatures. However, one dancer does walk away, searching upward to regain the vision. The only problem with this number was that when the dancers were not exactly synchronized, they appeared awkward because of their close proximity to the audience.

The committee feels that it does not receive the funds it needs for this kind of talent, although artists like Pearl Reynolds hope to do more work at by John Fliss Spectrum Arts Staff The University Union Activities Board (UUAB) sponsored a "Caribbean Dance and Folklore Workshop" Thursday, February 19, in the Fillmore Room and Friday, February 20, in Katherine Cornell Theatre. The guest artist was internationally known choreographer Pearl Reynolds. Reynolds brought with her Emile Latimer, a percussionist with Richie Havens, who led the essential section. Reynolds came to SUNY at Buffalo for the purpose of teaching two traditional Caribbean dances. The first technique, "Yanvalou," was covered at the first workshop and the second, "Juba," was the subject of the second program. v Yvonne James, chairperson of the UUAB Dance and Drama Committee, commented on why the term "workshop" was used, instead of the usual "master class" label: "Pearl was really getting into the 'essence' of the folklore, not so much lecturing, but explaining the movements as they go.along. 'Esssence' is sometimes, but rarely, done in the usual master class method." this University.

In general, Reynolds feels there is a great need in the Buffalo area for more workshops like hers. According to James, it took an entire workshop for participants to loosen up, even moi% mentally than physically. Reynolds felt that at first people vypre closed to the essence of the dances, but that great progress was made later in the workshops. For the most part, the dancers finally opened their minds and became one with the rhythm, instead of trying to step into the music. ‘The 'essence' is to become one with the universe instead of viewing it from the outside," Reynolds stated. Chairperson James feels that when people like Pearl Reynolds come to the University, the novice can really understand and relate to what they are doing. In James' words. "What she does is nothing foreign, but is taking from you and is you. It's from you; you move and you move from inside yourself, and isn't this what dancing is all • about?" She continued, "Being a dancer myself, I can understand this; and I also understand the kind of 'distance' that people have in their attitude toward dance, so Pearl is just an example of the types of artists that I'd like to narrow this gap with." ' .. - . No more pedestals James thinks people are reluctant to come to this type of program because of the “high level" on which they have been placed. She wants people to know that this kind of activity is for everybody, not just dance-educated individuals. "As the new chairman of the committee, I am trying to build a dance audience. This isn't to say we don't have one; we have one. I'm just trying to bring it more out to the people. It can truly be understood by everyone and it's something that everybody should enjoy and appreciate. I kept it free of admission because I wanted it open to everyone. I wanted everyone who heard the drums to come in and see what was happening," said James, who was appointed to her UUAB post last October. It is the intention of the Dance and Drama Committee at this point to get people with authority, credentials and experience behind them. In the words of the chairperson, "You're dealing with expertise ■1 ■ i. here, just as in music or any academic area.

Reynolds was a scholarship student at the Katherine Dunham School, the Martha Graham School and Julliard, where she studied both the ethnic and modern idioms of dance. She has choreographed many shows for Miriam Makeba and Nina Simone, and has appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show and in the movie Jamaica with Ricardo Montalban. She also worked with the late Langston Hughes and other celebrities. The African Cultural Cepter, the School of Movement on Utica Street and other colleges also participated in Pearl Reynold's workshop. "The dancer's response was really incredible," said James. Several dancers came up to Rodgers afterwards and told her that it was the first time they had ever really discovered their bodies. Most of the spectators were moved and thoroughly impressed. Betty Pierce, an Erie Community College student and a member of the School of Movement, summed it up with this statement: "To see Pearl Reynolds is to experience Pearl Reynolds; to experience her is to be part of one of the most inspiring performers of our time." »'* Friday, 27 February 1976 The Spectrum Page thirteen . . �Community Theatre The West Seneca Players succeed with "Plaza Suite" delivery of lines and control of by Kenneth Norman her Yiddish Spectrum Staff Writer The West Seneca Players, one of many community theatre groups in the Buffalo area, finished a successful run of Neil Simon's Plaza Suite last weekend. A predominantly West Senecan crowd of 600 people enjoyed the comedy, lending not only support for the monetary company but a generous amount of laughter and applause. As a result, the performers were generally riding high for Saturday night’s performance. Terry O'Shei showed this in his portrayal of Roy Hubley in Act 3, "Visitor From Forest Hills." Hubley is an upperclass, middle-aged Jew, who pours over $8000 into his daughter's wedding at the Plaza Hotel, only to find she has locked herself in the bathroom. O'Shei's tremendous energy was throughout the many trials and tribulations of convincing "Mimsey" to come out, trying to keep the guests quiet, and finally in desperation, trying to break the door down and climb along the window ledge to get in. Evelyn Squitieri, who played his wife Norma, put in a very stable performance with near perfect accent. The audience reacted wildly to this act. Unfortunately, at times they drowned out some very good lines or missed the humor completely. Timing of comic lines could have been used to sustain the emotions of the crowd by building a comic climax instead of proceeding after the laughter subsided: Norma and Roy Hubley could have played off of one another more. The fact that her accent was so much more pronounced that his tended to make them seem less of a team and more like two individuals. As a couple, they could have used their interactions to cue laughs and highlight important lines. The lack of interaction was highlighted in the final sequence when the groom, Borden Eisler (Joe Kozma) brings Mimsey out of the bathroom with just two words, "Cool it!" A stronger, more visual reaction from Roy and Norma would have prevented that climactic moment from being lost to the audience. 2, "Visitor from Act Hollywood," showed more interaction between Hollywood producer Jesse Kiplinger (Jack Judge) and Muriet Tate (Dawn Guarnieri), his old home town girl friend. Intimacy was required since this act involves Kiplinger's td seduce Muriel although she is already "happily" married. "Visitor from Hollywood" was hilarious but trite as Muriel downs seven vodka stingers and begins to talk about Jesse's success and how "happy" her pnarriage is. Guarnieri and Judge interact with their audience well, working with funny lines and adding laughs of their own through their actions. Act 1 featured Anne Surra as Karen Nash, a middle-aged woman whose marriage is Just about finished. Her husband is always away, either working or have a secret affair with his secretary, Miss McCormick (Darlene Fix), Surra appeared to be the only human in a world of machines. Because of the coldness of McCormick and Nash, Karen is the comic, using the people around her as straight men. Surra carried the ball well until the final sequence when her husband asks her to hate him and file for divorce. Because her husband has no real character, there was no one to hate and also 10 one to love. Ed McNamara's r-jrtrayal of Mr. Nash was so devoid of emotion that Surra was hard pressed to convince us she was broken up about him leaving. Her delivery and his set up of the comic lines were very good. Director Dennis Goal put on a fine show and did not refrain from making improvements in the already outstanding script. * It takes the best to cha all the Pabst. Since 1844.

Even though the gym was jammed, it didn't matter to either the crowd or the Parlaments. It was almost as if the crowd of 2000 was under a trance as they danced to the music. Before the Parlaments came out, a young local group called Tomorrows Creation performed. It was quite apparent that they were amateur and the crowd soon became restless, shouting, "We want the Funk, gotta have some \ Funk." When asked about their costumes, the Funkadelics replied in an interview after the show, "Our dress reflects our life style on and off the stage." This musical group is unique in many ways, but its members feel they are not very different. "It’s only natural for us," stated Bpotsie Collins, the bass player and vocalist. George Clinton, the group's producer and vocalist, was asked, if the Parlaments change their music to suit the times; "Yes, we have to go forward, in fact we go forward before the The Parlaments (alias Funk Mob) originate from Jersey City and have been together 19 years. The name of their band is the Funkadelics. The group had singles but as far back as 1954. Right now, the Parlaments are at a peak of their success, and totally in a world of their own. The group has always been noted for their dress. This time two men wore diapers, one man complemented his diaper with a white wig and white cape. Other members were dressed in Arabian garb and yet another looked like a monk. You can never tell what a Funkadelic/Parlament may adorn his body with. giving the word FUNK its true meaning. They sang tunes from some of their past albums, and they sang cuts from their new album entitled Mothership Connection. The songs, "P. Funk (wants to get funked up)" and "Give up the Funk (tear the roof off the sucker)," drove the crowd wild. A lot of people could honestly say the atmosphere of the concert was marred because of the crowd, but the Parlaments said they like crowds like this because it gives them energy.

Page fifteen �RECORDS Diana Ross (Motown Records) After a lengthy two and a half year hiatus from recording, Diana Ross, holder of 15 Billboard certified number one singles, more than any other American artist, has released a brand new album. Simply titled Diana Ross, the album reflects the precious vocal talents of Lady Ross to the utmbst extent with a vibrant array of ballads, standards, disco flavored rockers and some med-paced love songs. This album is the best recording Diana's made since her days with the legendary Supremes. For the first time in years, Diana sounds interested in her material, as if she's finally found the right kind of songs for an album. After two consecutive albums that were strictly easy listening MOR, and were excessively panned by both critics and followers, Diana has returned to her roots. She has totally re-emerged as a vocalist supreme. Her singing is alive, energetic and full of enthusiasm, something left out of most of her post-Supreme records. With potential sure-shot singles like "I Thought It Took A Little Time" and "After You," plus the recent number one "Theme From Mahogany," Diana sparkles and glitters in her inimitable, unique way. She glides through these med-paced love songs with ease, and skillfully manages to make the most intricate and complex melody seem totally effortless. Witness the "Theme From Mahogany": She changes key no fewer than five times yet shows not the slightest amount of strain or overt exertion despite the many key changes. It's these med-paced love songs where Diana's effective. The only disco tune, "Love Hangover," is a rare example of a disco song that's actually tolerable, if not good. With the excellent Motown studio band backing up Ross' superior vocals, "Love Hangover" is one of the better disco songs to appear since the disco scene's inception.

On March 16, masterclasses will be held at the Black Dance Workshop, 11 East Utica St., at 12:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. Chaplin's "Smile." She handles this slow standard beautifully, singing with all the warmth and love her slinky voice can muster up] and making the song sound contemporary apd fresh, despite the fact countless other artists have undoubtedly covered it. The entire album is good, with the tunes penned produced by Michael Masser standing out. Masser's recent work with Diana is the best she's done since the old days with Holland-Dozier-Holland and the Supremes. He has a knack of bringing out the best in Diana, something other Motown producers have been unsuccessful at. With "Mahogany" completed and no film plans in the foreseeable future, Diana seems determined to concentrate on doing what she does possible better than anyone else: singing. As she says: "I started singing because it was fum Then it became really hard work. Now I'm going to play again." Well, play she did, and with Diana Ross came up a colossal winner. -Steven Brieff and * Al DiMeola, Land of the Midnight Sun (Columbia) At the age of 21, Al DiMeola, of Chick Corea's Return to Forever, is already being called one of the best guitarists in the realm of jazz-rock.

Now, like his RTF cohorts Stanley Clarke and Lenny White, DiMeola has put out his own solo album. Land of the Midnight Sun. The album, although quite enjoyable, is also quite predictable and, like those of White and Clarke, does not really measure up to the collective efforts of the group. The main focus here is of course on DiMeola's playing, and most of the material follows a strict pattern of chorus/guitar break/chorus/guitar break, which becomes tedious at length. Unfortunately, neither the backup band nor the music is really good enough to sustain interest, even though Al's guitar is as amazing as ever. Side one is dominated by two long electric pieces ("The Wizard" and "Land of the Midnight Sun") which, although well structured and flawlessly played, lack memorability. Reminiscent of Santana or Return to Forever in places, these two compositions serve mainly as vehicles for DiMeola's fingers to show off, and that they do. Mingo Lewis, author of "The Wizard," plays percussion throughout the Ip, and it is the rhythm section which lends the most excitement to the electric material. The backup musicians vary from cut to cut, with Lenny White, Alphonse Mouzon, Stanley Clarke making guest appearances. An unaccompanied acoustic version of the sarabande from Bach's Violin Sonata in B Minor lends redeeming variety to side one, and is one of the album's better selections. The side ends with DiMeola's "Love Theme from ‘Pictures of the Sea'," a short, melodic cut with an unexpected surprise Al and Stanley Clarke on vocals. Most of side two js taken up by "Suite Golden Dawn," another DiMeola composition. The piece is extremely varied in texture, ranging from - / - Page sixteen . the heavy rock chording to funky guitar-bass riffing to RTF-type chord changes as it goes on. However, the suite is essentially one long, lightning fast guitar solo, and as such, very similar to what was already heard on side one. The album's most worthwhile cut is its final one, Chick Corea's "Short Tales of the Black Forest," an acoustic piano-guitar duet. Displaying impeccable control of dynamics and phrasing, Corea and DiMeola tease the listener with rippling bursts of sixtreenth notes, creating an atmosphere similar to the acoustic "Song to John" on Stanley Clarke’s Journey to Love. Although I will not dispute the fact that DiMeola is a master of his instrument, I question the necessity of his recording a solo album. He may have felt stifled within the environment of Return to Forever, but it seems that the best selections on Land of the Midnight Sun sound like them. Indeed, the most interesting cut on the album ("Short Tales") was composed by Corea, and featured him on piano. As with many of the members of established groups who have released solo efforts lately, it looks like Al DiMeola creates best while —John Duncan being stifled. Spectrum Friday, 27 February 1976 . Prodigal Sun �Power Hostile democracy To the Editor. To the Editor. “ of the press After this third epistle, I shall more or less gracefully withdraw, leaving the letter page to the usual unbroken litany of trendy liberalism. (Do I hear a sigh of relief from the editor? A round of applause from the Revolutionary Student Brigade?). The point to be remembered about Tolstoy and Social Sciences Colleges is that they do not merely “study” but advocate. It simply makes no sense for a state to finance those who would wish to destroy it. It is this combination of advocacy hostile to our society being financed by the state that makes the whole situation objectionable. Brian Douglas declares that ‘Truth is relative to man.” Yet how do we know if something is “right for now” unless we have some prior standard of Molliken proclaims that judgement? David philosophy and politics are only “subjective studies.” Then why object to Hitler’s philosophy? After all, some people like bird-watching, some like I feel as a student and a vice presidential candidate it is my duty to reply to the vicious attack against me in Wed. editorial of The Spectrum. By reading this paper, an uninformed student would think that I didn’t have any qualifications for this position. Because The Spectrum supposedly knows more than students, some students take The Spectrum as god. Six editors of The Spectrum decided by a group interview that I didn’t have any leadership abilities. They don’t even regularly attend Senate meetings. The Spectrum doesn’t state facts in this editorial to back up their opinions. They take quotes out of and expect you to believe their context interpretation. I hope students investigate the candidates much more intelligently than this. Please read all you can and make your decision (if you haven’t already) by using all the information available. JeffLessoff - bridge ... True relativists would be as indifferent to the doctrine of academic freedom as to any other doctrine, yet Mr. Molliken talks about “rights” and Mr. Douglas considers some ideas “invaluable.” One can almost conclude that they do believe in absolute truth. The denial of absolute truth is an evil doctrine. Let it be remembered that the man most directly responsible for the death of God Incarnate asked whether with a smirk or a heavy heart rhetorically we do not know, “What is truth?” - Stuart Gudowitz Bad press To the Editor: The Albany State Press, flagship newspaper of the entire SUNY system has disgraced itself and made a mockery of collegiate journalism. Through investigation, it uncovered rampant abuse, misuse of power, and corruption in SASU. Instead of disseminating this information to its sister newspapers throughout the SUNY system as it has the privilege and obligation to do, ASP tried to peddle the story. Rightfully, several newspapers refused to accede to this blackmail. Regrettably, the students at these universities and colleges will never learn of these wrongs. Unfortunately, as always, it is the students who suffer. N. Lewis SUNY at Buffalo Worthy of praise To the Editor. This letter is offered in response to a polemic which you printed on Wed., Feb. 18, concerning Dr. Charles Mitchell’s Shakespeare class (“Reading into Shakespeare”), in which he was labeled as “sexist” and “incompetent,” and his class described as “a constant and unending harangue about the destructive, low, bestial and vile qualities of women ... presented in an offensive manner.” To anybody who has taken the time to listen seriously to any of Dr. Mitchell’s Shakespeare lectures, the charges he is up against will be seen as totally without foundation, to the point of being laughable. To the accusation of “sexism”; it is well known that the attitude toward women in Elizabethan times was not as open and mature as it is becoming today. Where this attitude has been encountered in Shakespeare, Dr. Mitchell has attempted to demonstrate its influence on the characters in the plays, not to defend or glorify it. He has, in fact, gone so far as to condemn characters for having precisely those attitudes which the writers of the Feb. 18 letter accuse him of holding! The charge of “teaching incompetence” borders on absurdity; Dr. Mitchell’s lectures and comments reveal a thorough understanding, not only of Shakespeare, but of the mainstream of Western thought. As a teacher, he has the gift of not only making Shakespeare accessible to his students, but also provocative and entertaining. The claim was made that there is no discussion this is a bald lie. The class is conducted as an class; in open forum, and anybody can freely express his own interpretation of any play or character, regardless of how it may line up with Dr. Mitchell’s. Charles Mitchell is an accomplished scholar and a highly competent and engaging professor, and completely innocent of the ridiculous charges which have been leveled against him. It is our hope that prospective students will not be swayed by the unfair attack which appeared against him in this paper on the 18th. Dennis A. Clary Victor Gulotta Edward E. Hornung Mark Grohol Gary D. Weiner Kevin M. Galvin Stephen R. Duren Jackie Hershenson Matthew M. Mamley Linda R. Pfonna Madelyn Javlon Social factors in Lebanon To the Editor. This is addressed to the people who have read Mr. Samuel Prince’s letters to The Spectrum concerning the Lebanese civil war. In what follows I hope to be able to redress some of the distortions and inaccuracies contained in Mr. Prince’s letters. It should be noted that Mr. Prince had written letters before to The Spectrum as the Director of the Israel Information Center. Needless to say, this colours his perception of the Lebanese situation. To understand the situation in Lebanon some aspects of the social and economic system should be noted. First, feudalism runs deep in Lebanese society. An indication of this is the fact that the five big families of the town of Zghorta (the hometown of the Lebanese President Souleiman Frangiye) each has its own paramilitary formations. The militia of the President is led by his son Tony Frangiye. In addition, the militia of the rightist phalangist party is led by the son of Pierre Gemayel, the leader of J;he party. The son of Kamil Shamoon leads his father’s National Liberal Party’s militia (also a rightist party). On the “leftist” side the lines are less clear. However, it should be noted that the leader of the “leftist” coalition at present is Kamal Joumblat, chairman of the Lebanese Socialist Party; he is himself a descendant of a feudal family, and his popularity is strongest among the Druze community to whom he belongs. Second, the Moslem conservatives who chose to join the leftists in the recent fighting (the coalition referred to as the “moslem Left” in the U.S. media) did so in the hope of strengthening their bargaining position vis-a-vis the Christian conservative families. The coalition is clearly a temporary one based on common interests. There was a period in the civil war in Beirut during which speeches were made in mosques denouncing the “Left” and “Atheism” (usually these speeches are a clear indicator of the big and rich Moslem families’ position). The “Left, however, did not mind forming a military coalition with these few Moslem families, for without such a coalition the “Left” would have been totally crushed. Third, the Lebanese economy is largely dependent upon services; these services connect the Arab world with the rest of the world. However, it is estimated that half of the commercial transactions that take place in Beirut do not benefit the Lebanese economy. This laissez-faire policy originator of the along with the almost service-oriented economy non-existence of government protectionism vis-a-vis the local industry, causes a high disproportion in the - - distribution of wealth; thus, as Eric Rouleau of Le Monde points out: . . agriculture and industry, which employ 40 to 45 percent of the labour force, provide less than 30 percent of the gross national product; other estimates indicate that half of the national income is “ . controlled by 5 percent (or less) of the population. By contrast, workers in agriculture, industry and construction combined receive only 12 to 15 percent of the national income.” (Le Monde, 18-24, Sept., 1975). The Israeli raids on South Lebanon, the awfulness of the poverty of rural areas, and the shiny lights of Beirut, all caused a heavy migration from the periphery to the center of the country. The poor masses of the South, of the Akkar and of the Bekaa valley (once the “breadbasket of the Roman Empire”) flooded toward Beirut to join the Palestinian Arabs (refugees since 1947-48), Syrian workers, Kurds and Armenians, to form what has come to be known as “the belt of misery” around the luxurious hotel area of Beirut, the voluptuous foreign residences, and the Christian middle class area of Ashrafieh. Striking similarities can be detected between the present civil war and the social revolution of the 1840’s and 1850’s that took place in Mount Lebanon. In those years, Tanius Shaheen led a peasant uprising against the feudal lords; as one historian observed: “Because some of the deprived peasants were Christian and their overlords were Druze, the uprising assumed the false image of a sectarian strife an image perpetuated again in the present bid of Lebanon’s poor for social justice.” “Democratic” channels did not help the as a wretched in their “bid for social justice” Lebanese columnist put it: . . They (the poor) signed hundreds of petitions . . . But no one read them . But even if they (the governing rich) had read them, would you think their conscience would have been bothered at all? Forty years have gone And suddenly the gun reached the hand of the poor . . and they were told to shoot . . . and they shot blindly . . .” ( Al-Nahar 8/9/75). To return back to Mr. Prince’s analysis of the events in Lebanon, I would in no way claim that the religious factor was absent in the crisis. However, if I were to weigh its importance, I would have to say that the social and economic factors would by far - — “ . . . . , outweigh it. Tony Khater Friday, 27 February 1976 The Spectrum . Page seventeen . �Time management Possible solutions to more effective time use by John Butler Spectrum Staff Writer Do you ever have days that go by totally wasted? Have you developed a habit of putting off until later things you could and should do right now? Do you find difficulty organizing yourself or have problems accomplishing goals? If you answer yes to any or all of the above, perhaps a change is in order. Richard Towner, a Student Personnel Manager at the University of Cincinnati, proposed possible solutions at a Time Management Workshop Monday in Norton Hall for people who need to use their time more effectively. According to Towner, there is no clear-cut answer to these problems and one cannot become a new person overnight. Towner said by patiently following some simple steps, or keeping some of his tips in mind, one can accomplish more in less time. Consciousness raising Towner first suggested raising consciousness about time through awareness of what you are doing right now, and questioning what value it might have. If there is something more pressing or important to do, one will recognize that a change is needed. Towner said there is a “fine line between being conscious of time and being anxious about it.” To become upset or nervous about not completing something defeats the purpose. Then faced with the problem of having a number of things to do, simply prepare a list, starting with the most important task, and work down to the least important. If you are really frustrated with the way your day was spent, he said, carry around a notebook and record every half hour what you did in that time. This will provide a total, detailed picture of the day, and from there at .least an understanding of where time is wasted. It’s not actually managing time, but management of the self, Tbwner explained. Whatever we are doing at this moment came about through a value judgement. We decided on this one activity over any other. A key is to stop ourselves at these sub-conscious decisions, he added, and question' why we are making them. How often when tryifTg to Page eighteen The Spectrum Friday, 27 February 1976 . . -<ly yov you v a line of concentration. A remedy to this might be to pick one specific^place to study and go there everytime. After a while, when your mind is confronted sntating , with this setting, sub-consciously it will be ready to concentrate. Two words synonomous with managing time are planning and patience: patience to work on the job at hand, and not look ahead until it is completed.

According to U.S. News and World Report, “The big shifts in society and the economy are catching up with United States’ home life.” Couples today want smaller families. The over-all fertility rate per woman is estimated at 1.9 children compared with 3.7 in 1960 and 2.5 in 1970, the magazine reported. The United States Bureau of Census found in 1974 that the majority of women of childbearing age (75 percent) expect to have two or three children, although 17 percent “intend to have either just one child or remain childless.” Only 8 percent planned on 4 or more children. combination of Through a contraceptives and later marriage ages, the smaller family size has evolved. U.S. News that together these two reported “contributed to a marked decline in childbearing.” Changing desires and expectations Due to the financial burden, as well as to the fact that women’s “desires and expectations” have changed, the shift towards the smaller family size has developed. The employment level of mothers is continuously rising. Many women are finding motherhood “more nearly a part-time job,” according to psychiatrist Robert S. Weiss, in his report at a symposiujn on “The Family and Its Future” held in 1970. There has been an ever growing shift in thought from the previous decades when a mother’s place was thought to be in the home. As was reported in the June, 1975 issue of Psychology Today, “most children now have mothers who work outside the home (51 percent of mothers of school-ajge children work, and 67 percent of these mothers work full-time). Highest work rates are found among young mothers with low incomes who work most because they need the money the most.” Also noted in the article was the fact that mothers of middle-income families have joined the labor force “at , a higher rate than married women from lower income families did in the early 1960s.” Cornell psychologist Urie Bronfenbrenner has attributed this trend of middle class - Difficulties vary Because the United States is a heterogeneous nation consisting of people of many economic levels, the difficulties faced by parents in different financial women conditions vary. Men and of a deal economic great experiencing problems must determine if they will have sufficient resources to support a child, as well as maintain their own security. For couples with higher incomes and more financial security, a child doesn’t threaten the quality of their lifestyle. But for the vast majority of parents, children financial burdens. Population are —Center for the Study of Aging presents A seminar =MH HH women to their higher education levels. The' changing role of the mother, in Weiss’ view, “will delegate nannies, babysitters, child-care centers and nursery schools” to manage children. The U.S. News and World Report agrees. “As households change or break up, children are increasingly under the care of a single parent, a working mother, a day nursery or the television set.” — Family size to continue decline In an article for Science magazine, “The American Birth Rate: Evidences of a Coming Rise,” June Sklar and Beth Berkov compiled data from the Monthly Vital Statistics Report of 1975. “With only one minor exception (in 1969 and 1970), the American birth rate dropped steadily after its peak in 1957. By 1973, the latest year for which nationwide data are available, the general fertility rate hit the lowest point ever recorded for it 69.2 live births per 1000 women aged 15 to 44.” Now that it’s reached its lowest point, SPEAKERS- Dr. Harry Fritt-Dean, School of Haalth Educ.

QFM 97 & Harvey & Corky present An Anniversary Film Festival ' — Sklar and Berkov believe that the birth rate will begin to rise, but the size of families will continue to fall. They attribute this expected increase in births is tfie large number of women in the 20-29 age group, the “prime childbearing age.” Born in the late 1940s and early 1950s, when the birth rate was on the increase, these women are expected to have at least one child because “there is evidence that they do not desire to remain childless permanently,” according to Sklar and Berkov. From projections to 1990 by the U.S. News and World Report economic unit in 1975, both marriage and October childbearing will continue to occur at later ages. The number of marriages should increase and peak around the end of the century, with the size of families averaging about two children per family. Now and in the future, the size of families will continue to reflect the changes in modern society resulting from high costs and a shift in lifestyles.

Friday, 27 February 1976 The Spectrum Page nineteen . . �Athlete of the Week honors belongs to numerous Bulls For the first time since Athlete of the Week was created last year, we of The Spectrum sports staff feel that it is necessary to honor a multitude of athletes this week. Normally, Athlete of the Week is selected each Monday, photographed by Tuesday, and read in The Spectrum on Wednesday, but this week the sheer number of qualified athletes made the regular approach absurd. Instead, a longer dissertation on the quality performances exhibited last week will be substituted for the normal format. But wrestling wasn’t the only sport which boasted solid individual performances last week. Although the basketball Bulls lost by a wide margin to Virginia Commonwealth University, center Sam Pellom turned in another amazing performance. He scored 24 points, blocked 10 shots, and hauled down an incredible 31 rebounds. Pellom has been leading the nation in rebounding periodically this year. Buffalo’s women’s basketball team was not without its stars either. Like the men’s team, the women’s center is their best player. She’s Ann Trapper, and she led The most impressive team performance both teams in scoring and rebounding in last week was supplied by the wrestling the hoopsters’ 61-40 victory over Fredonia.

He wrestled and won all of Binghamton where he won the 200 yard his six scheduled matches. backstroke, and individual medley races. # kN/ *=> ■ and also helped the Bulls to a win in the 400 yard medley relay. The mermaids were just as impressive as the mermen. Liz Repaski, who has been defeated only once this season, singlehandedly destroyed Niagara with victories in the 100 yard backstroke, the 50 yard free style, and she shared in the winning 200 yard medley and free style relays.

In that meet, teammate Mary Drozda had three individual wins along with a shared first in one of the relays. The last noteworthy performance of the week goes to a fencer, namely Tom Bremmer. The fencing Bulls have not been too successful this year, but Bremmer won all six of his matches last Saturday. A transfer from the Naval Academy, Bremmer scored three of his epee triumphs against Penn State, one of the nation’s more highly regarded fencing schools. Uw bull pan by David J. Rubin Sports Editor If anybody ever told me that I’d be writing a column in the middle of February on the steps of Harriman Library wearing just a light shirt and no jacket, well, the whole thing is just unbelievable. Things have really been hopping lately, so much so that there is no way that everything of importance can be fully covered. Nevertheless, I’m gonna try. Firstly, the fact that the swimming Bulls are SUNY Center champions again and that the wrestling Bulls are state champs again is more evidence that intercollegiate sports should be maintained at this University. Buffalo already has a solid academic reputation, but victories such as these add a great deal to Buffalo’s all around University reputation. There are many specialized areas like communications and journalism which are lacking entirely at Buffalo, and it is necessary to maintain programs like athletics to prevent this University from becoming a technical school. If the hockey Bulls reach the playoffs, (Oswego lost to American International 10-4, and that will help.) that will be just one more feather in the cap of Clark Hall. In fact,' there were so many outstanding performances by Buffalo athletes, that for the first time since its inception last year, the format of Athlete of the Week had to be changed to allow for a fair representation of all the qualified athletes. Not only that, but both myself and Assistant Sports Editor Paige Miller agree that last weekend produced the most impressive overall performances by Buffalo athletic teams in the three years that we have been at this school. Another big thing that came up this week was the visit by representatives from the State University of New York at Albany. They sent six students, faculty and administrators to check out the merits of building a facility similar to the Ketterpillar (Bubble) here. They face similar overcrowding conditions to what Buffalo students have been dealing with for years, they think that a Ketterpillar-type facility may serve their needs better than the Ketterpillar has served ours. However, the best thing about the Albany visit was that it gave myself and Student Athletic Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia the chance to find out about the mysterious miracle which led to the financial security of the Albany athletics program. It seems that SUNY Albany’s Student Association set up a fixed portion of the mandatory fee for athletics years ago with the provision that it would be honored by future Student Associations. Although the figure arrived at was fairly high to begin with, a provision was also made to increase the athletic portion if costs dictated such an increase. This continuity effect is what makes SUNY Albany’s plan so successful. Athletic coaches and administrators can well estimate how much money they will have far in advance. But in Buffalo, athletics must go on trial each year and fight for funds. It would be a giant leap forward if Albany's program could be adapted to Buffalo athletics. Finally, there is one political note that should be mentioned on this final day of SA elections. You’ve got to wonder about the athletic proposals of some of the candidates running for office. They say they want to establish a football team with a limited schedule, expand programs at the Ketterpillar, and also expand women’s activities. The cost involved in these programs would have to be at least S25,000 and such a sum could only be found at the expense of other athletic programs. The entire proposal seems quite shortsighted from where 1 sit. �i I BUY 1 SINGLE ORDER OF CHICKEN WINGS, ! GET THE 2nd ORDER I Now!

Canisius College will host the women’s "basketball championships, with the final games being played at Memorial Auditorium. Buffalo State will be the site of the men’s swimming championships, which will be a three day affair. Based on the regular season competition, it seems safe to say that there is no clear-cut favorite in women’s basketball. Canisius trounced Buffalo 69-42, and Buffalo beat Buff State S1-4I, but then Buff State upset the pattern by whipping-Canisius by thirteen points. The only weak sister in the conference seems to be Niagara, which has lost all three of its Big Four games by at least 29 points. Championship a toss up Although Buffalo State will be the top seed due to point differentials in the Big Four games, their coach, Carolyn Lehr, admitted “any one of the three teams has a chance to win it.

The Bengali only loss in Big Four competition was to Buffalo, which switched to a 1-3-1 defense for the first time all year, and later switched to a full-court press to beat Buffalo State. The Bulls leading scorer has been center Ann Trapper, averaging close to 17 points as well as over fifteen game. Clyde rebounds per O’Malley has been second in scoring all year, as well as being Buffalo’s backcourt ace. Canisius beat Buffalo badly, but Bulls’ coach Carolyn Thomas felt that Buffalo’s 19 percent shooting was not indicative of their true strength. “The day we played them, they couldn’t buy a basket. I’m sure they’ll be stronger this time,” said Griffins’ coach Cathy Bramer. Center Karen Jachimiak and forward Carol Murdoch have been the Griffins best players this year as Canisius compiled a 6-3 record overall.

Bengali best In contrast to the situation in women’s basketball, the men’s swimming Big Four championship has a clear favorite, at least according to Bulls’ swimming coach Bill Sanford. He feels that Buffalo State, which has a 10-2 record and is undefeated in Big Four competition ritould be the best of the four schools. The big battle will be between Buffalo and Niagara for second place. The Purple Eagles took the regular season encounter with Buffalo 64-48. “We’re very close to Niagara, if we’re at full strength,” said Sanford. “I’m worrying about whether we’ll have a full complement.” Several of the Bulls’ swimmers had to miss meets recently due to the flu, and many haven’t returned to full strength yet. Sanford went on to say that differences in admission standards and coaching requirements gave the Bengals an advantage, since Buffalo State admissions standards were lower and their coaches do not have to teach physical education courses as do the Buffalo coaches.

When the tournament ended, the Bulls returned to Buffalo as state champions for the third consecutive year. Besides winning top honors as the "New York State Team Champion, nine out of the ten Bulls entered in the competition finished in the top six of their individual weight classes, qualifying them as all-state wrestlers. Grapplen turn year around -This year’s squad has come a long way since the season began back in early November. At that time, in a time of crisis at this University. If, as in past Association (SA) elections, only ten percent of the undergraduate student body votes, the President of this University can claim that the elected officials dp not really represent the students, and thus can be ignored. If the one officially recognized representative government on campus does not in fact represetfl the majority of students, there is little to stop a campus administration from carrying out arbitrary actions against the interests of 14,000 undergraduates. If you do not vote today through Friday, the administration may have an excuse to shut down the Student Pharmacy, to kick NYPIRG out of its office, to disregard student opinion in the planning of the shopping center on the Amherst Campus, to close down the Record Coop for good, to cut out innovative Colleges and departments, and to tell students they have no right to decide how to spend their own mandatory fee money. Students have perennially complained that SA is not doing its job, that it is not protecting the interests of the'student body. While this argument has some merit, there is not at present any viable alternative to the regularly-elected student government. We cannot wait for non-existent messiahs to save the students when the crisis in student services comes to a head. We are going to have to rely, for better or worse, upon the students holding SA office to deal with a well-organized administration striving to extend its power.

Powell, who lives in a fashionable neighborhood along Jewett Parkway, said neighbors of his had observed unmarked police cars nearby, and had been visited by agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in past years. According to Powell, the neighbor who was visited, (he wife of a faculty member here, was shown naked photographs of several male members of the so-called Buffalo 5 (a group indicted for raiding draft board files who were living at Powell’s house at the time), and asked if she had seen any of them.

Several windows and a door were damaged by the crowd, and a second floor water cooler was uprooted, flooding the basement of Clark. Abdul Wahaab, Chairperson of the Black Student Union (BSU) which co-produced the concert with UUAB, said the size of the crowd far outstripped the number of tickets, and there was nothing BSU’s security could do to prevent the group from surging into the gym. Wahaab said damage to the gym was minor and will be paid for in full by the promoter’s insurance. He emphasized that the damage was caused by the pressure of pushing bodies and not deliberate acts of vandalism. There were no arrests or injuries at the concert, he added. Replying to an editorial in Monday’s issue of The Spectrum, the BSU leader said there was no counterfeiting of tickets or misdeeds by concert workers. All 1800 tickets were sold through the Norton Ticket Office, and none were sold at the door. Although the doors were closed after the 1800 person capacity at the gym was reached, the crowd remaining outside pushed their way past six security and about 15 concert workers, said Wahaab. While concert workers tried to take tickets at the door, they were only partly successful because of the sheer numbers of people who were trying to get in, he added. concerts No problems Sunday Wahaab extended apologies to people who were left outside Clark despite holding tickets. He said that anyone holding a whole ticket would receive full credit toward the next concert (date and group to be announced) sponsored by BSU and UUAB. However, if tickets to the next concert are more expensive, they would have to pay the difference. No outright refunds will be given, he said. Wahaab said that “a crowd like this happens once every ten years,” adding that the unexpectedly large turnout may have been due to current releases by the groups in addition to a dearth of concerts on campus this past year. Another BSU concert took place Sunday night without event. BSU programming The Parliaments and Funkadelics concert was part of Black Homecoming Weekend, which also included an awards banquet for Hugh Basset, Colleen Polite, and Michael Brisco held at the Vermillion Room, 33 East Ferry Street in Buffalo. Except for Friday night’s concert, the weekend events were well-attended and highly successful, according to the BSU chairman. Wahaab said the problems at the concert should not obscure what he characterized as a highly successful, year of programming by BSD. The organization has sponsored or co-sponsored speeches by Prime Minister Louis Farrakhan (of the Nation of Islam), comedian Dick Gregory, playwright Imamu Baraka (formerly LeRoi Jones), and poet Gwendolyn Brooks; concerts by Caribe and the Steel Band; commuter breakfasts every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday morning; tutoring programs; and International Dinners. Wahaab credited BSD Activities Committee Chairman Robert Powell and Student Association Minority Student Affairs Coordinator Tyrone Wilson for helping plan and carry out these events. Infirmary —Tepper Free lunch program out Students who catch the flu in the near future will find that meal service in the University Health Service (UHS) infirmary is no longer free of charge. “The food budget has put the infirmary thousands of dollars in the hole over the past few years. As a matter of fact, last year we weren’t able to get some medical supplies,” explained Luther Musselman, acting UHS Director. UHS did not decide to start charging for meals, Musselman said, “this decision was made by the University administration.” Edward Doty and Carter Pannil, Vice Presidents for Finance and Management and Health Services, respectively, ordered the policy change to help reverse the UHS budget deficit which in past years the administration has tolerated, according to Musselman. < Musselman admitted that charging for food service in the infirmary “is worse for students than Students voicing rage with FSA by Keith Friedlander Spectrum Staff Writer A recent spot-check of the Faculty Student Association (FSA) revealed that students are generally dissatisfied with the high prices charged by nearly all FSA operations. Drug and sundry items in the University Bookstores, for example, ranging from Dial soap to Contact cold capsules, cost from $.14 to $.30 more there than the same products at Twin Fair. In fact, a recent survey conducted by The Spectrum showed that Bookstore prices were higher than local stores on 15 particular items. Another arm of FSA, Food and Vending Services, was also the recipient of complaints from students unhappy with “over pricing” on meals or the lack of posted information on obtaining refunds on money lost in campus vending machines. A random survey at the Ellicott Complex showed there were no signs instructing students as to where they might obtain refunds. On the Main Street Campus, however, some machines advertised that refunds were available at the Bursar’s Office if a “seven day limit on claims” was observed. Asked why the Amherst machines had no refund information, Sam Davidson, a manager at Food and Vending replied, “The signs are in the trucks, it’s just 'that we are so far behind.” Meanwhile, Mitch Siegel, a junior, said he probably lost “two to three dollars” in vending machines since the beginning of the school year. Spaghetti and meatballs Because of the larger amount of money involved, complaints about board contract seem more numerous. “A typical food service meal might consist of spaghetti and meatballs with only spaghetti and sauce as seconds,” says Tom Taylor, formerly on board contract. “How can they call it a second helping when it is completely and totally inferior to the first helping?” A worker at the Richmond Quad cafeteria revealed that “nearly half’ of the students on meal plan last semester have dropped it. “Usually people complain, but this is the first time 1 have ever seen this happen,” he said. Another worker confided that Food Service relies on second semester freshmen to make up the deficit but due to an admissions freeze, this had not occurred. Students visiting friends at other state campuses have returned with tales of “virtual banquets” while transmitting stories of woe. “At Albany,” says Ellicott Resident Advisor Charly Goldberg, “we sat down for a roast beef dinner. It was so delicious that I stuffed myself. I must have gone back two or three times. Here, you’re lucky if you walk away satisfied.” “At Oswego,” adds Robyn Kleinman, a student there, “for about what you pay for ten meals a week, we get weekends as well. Plus, we get open-grill.” “Open-grill” refers to a system by which students may obtain meals in-between regular meal hours. getting it for free,” but it’s still a lot better than paying about $170 per day to stay at Meyer Hospital, or $85 at Buffalo General, he pointed out. The most a day in the infirmary might cost is $16,80, Musselman said, and that would include comprehensive tests and lab work. The new meal prices are $1.61 for breakfast, $2.14 for lunch, and $3.05 for dinner. Infirmary patients do not have to buy the food service meals, but come dinner-time the alternatives are few. Visitors willing to hazard the risks of going into the infirmary (which are especially high during What to do the current flu epidemic) may bring commercially As to what can be done about FSA at this University, Effman advises friends, foods to their but home-made students to “cut off funds to FSA and look for alternatives.” prepared products are not permitted for fear of “As soon as you give them your money, you lose control of it,” he said. contamination.

Kennedy Airport in New York City for a trial period of sixteen months. United States Transportation Secretary William T. Coleman Jr. announced his decision to allow the Concorde limited access to two American airports after much deliberation. The trial period flights are subject to stringent restrictions. Only two flights a day will be allowed into, Dulles, and only four into Kennedy. Over United States territory, the jet will have to travel at sub-sonic speeds, avoiding the super-sonic boom. There will be no take-offs or landings between ten p.m. and seven a.m. local time. Coleman maintained that the testing period would put the United States at the forefront of of international standards for development commercial super-sonic transportation. High cost The Concorde cost French and British investors three billion dollars to develop, as well as a production cost of sixty-five million dollars per plane (as opposed to the original projection of twelve million). The heavy financial interests involved prompted the British and French to hint at economic retaliation against U.S. airlines and weapons manufacturers if the plane was barred from landing in America. However, Coleman’s decision to allow the trial flights has averted possible diplomatic strain between friendly nations. The right of the European SST to land in the U.S. was challenged by environmentalists who argue that the jet is “noisy, dirty, and a major factor in depleting the earth’s atmosphere’s ozone layer.” Studies show that the Concorde’s low frequency noise emissions trigger structural vibrations three and one-half times greater than ordinary jets. Us take-offs and landings are twice as loud as those of sub-sonic planes. In response, Coleman has ordered multiple noise monitoring systems set up at both airports to study the effects. Since the SST will be travelling at sub-sonic speeds over U.S. territory, Coleman feels that the added noise of six daily flights is a small price to pay for field testing of super-sonic , PROBLEM PREGNANCY? MEDICAL CLINIC FOR UNWANTED PREGNANCY. f The Concorde is heavily pollutant, yielding almost ten times as much carbon monoxide as most other commercial jets. But Coleman said the effect of six flights daily on the quality of the air surrounding the airport would be minimal. Coleman ordered that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) monitor the emission levels at Dulles and J.F.K. and promised that Concorde flights would be immediately discontinued “in the event of an emergency deemed harmful to the health, welfare or safety of the American people.” One reservation long held by environmentalists is that SST exhaust emission depletes the atmosphere’s ozone layer, which screens out certain forms of solar radiation. The resultant increase in intensity of the sun’s rays might eventually cause an increase in skin cancer. However, Coleman cited evidence of an increase in ozone levels in recent years, despite trends that would indicate the contrary (i.e., widespread use of aerosol sprays, etc.). There is no evidence that the approved six flights per day would cause any significant depletion of ozone levels, Coleman said. Coleman’s doubts Coleman himself expressed doubt about the feasibility of super-sonic technology. “It may well be that further development of this technology is not and economically sensible in the energy environmentally conscious period in which we live. “If so then the Concorde will fail because it is an anachronism, and its failure will be recongized as such rather than attributed to an arbitrary and protectionist attitude on the part of the U.S. out of fear that our dominance of the world aeronautical manufacturing market is threatened,” he said. The judiciousness with which Coleman approached the problem of environment versus engineering demonstrates a new ‘look before you leap’ attitude toward technology in some observers’ view. Governmental agencies might place scientific ‘advances’ under greater scrutiny before allowing their common acceptance. “The Coleman decision reveals that we have a new way of life in the country: environmental and technical problems have to be faced before they get out of control,” observed Russell Peterson, chairman of the White House Council on Environmental ! , KWIStCT DOTlUt* [jA QUALIFIED COUNSELORS are to answer your questions.

Such a disproportionate amount of black and Spanish-speaking inmates to black and Spanish-speaking guards makes it difficult, if not impossible to meet the needs of these inmates, results in a certain amount of racism. As for the general treatment by the guards, an inmate described it as “subtle.” “There are those who treat you like human beings," he said. Medical service was termed “very bad.” Although the Department of Mental Hygiene, which provides psychiatric services and is independanl of the Medical Department, was praised as being “one of the best in the state,” medical-care wax criticized as “needs working on.” Hear 0 Israel For gems from the Jewish Bible Phone 875-4265 — — difference!!! : MCA!

A teacher at the prison spoke of the college program that goes on there. Bachelor of Arts programs were set up in May, 1975 through Genesee Community College, Rosary Hill, Niagara University, and Canisius College. Instructors from these schools go to the prison to teach inmates. A major complaint among the inmates is the cells themselves. Housing is “very had” and for those men in A, B and D blocks, there is “no privacy.” Cells are approximately six feet wide, nine feet long and seven feet high.

According to an inmate, ‘The vegetables are so dehydrated that the vitamins are Granting parole Other complaints commonly made by the inmates refer to the parole system, discipline and diet. As for the parole system, there has been “no real change.” However, this is not the responsibility of theadministration, but rather the Parole Board. When an inmate is eligible for parole, a report on him goes before the Board, which sets the basis for granting or denying inmate parole. “The inmate doesn’t get due process on the report,” an inmate charged. The prisoner can’t read the paper and the paper can be “detrimental” or “disastrous” to the inmate because he is never able to know what it says. For various reasons, an inmate can be placed in detention, known as the “special housing unit” to officers and “the box” to inmates. For example, if a fight occurs between an inmate and a guard, the inmate may be sent to the box. However, the guard is usually never reprimanded. Inmates in detention are restricted from programs and remain there while their case is reviewed by the Adjustment Committee. The Committee is composed of an officer of at least Lieutenant rank, an inmate and another officer. An inmate in detention may be kept there for a maximum of fourteen days unless time is longer period of a nonexistant.” To handle these and other grievances, a grievance procedure was instituted this month. An inmate submits a complaint which must be answered within forty-eight hours. Correspondence and visits are limited to those on approved lists. Except for legal corresppndcnce, an inmate’s mail is opened and searched for contraband. Visitors are met in the visiting room, which is often overcrowded, and are seated opposite inmates at a table. A screen no longer divides the table and inmates and visitors are permitted to hold hands. In addition, they may “kiss a body upon arrival and before leaving.” Due to overcrowding, a new visiting area is being built. As for the crimes which put them in Attica an inmate says, “Getting caught is the crime,” to which another added, “If you don't have .the money, you don’t the get off.” They cited “countryclub prisons and the Patty Hearst trial as examples. The recidivism rate at Attica is 75 percent. A majority of the inmates in Attica were represented by the Legal Aid Society, which works basically on a plea bargaining system. “If you choose to fight it, you’re looked at as if guilty,” said an inmate. Another, who had a court-appointed attorney, expressed his dissatisfaction. He had only seen his attorney four times. GRADUATE STUDENTS: Prepare your questions for the meeting with President Ketter.

Norman Goldfarb and Frank Mesiah, co-chairman of the Citizens Council on Human Relations (CCHR), said that the Board’s plan was set up to sidestep pressure by the State Education Department for a full-scale integration effort in the Buffalo school system. The Board drew up their plan as State Education Commissioner Ewald Niquist announced a state-mandated plan would be forthcoming in the next few weeks. According to Board officials, their plan calls for considerably less bussing of students than the State plan would have. However, the Board plan calls for closing the schools and shifting grade levels in others. “When you analyze the details on a map with school populations, knowing the number of black and white children in each of the schools, you see what another fraud it is!” said Goldfarb. CCHR, along with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and a number of concerned local parents, have sued city and stale officials, charging them with maintaining racial segregation in ; _ Not a plan Qoldfarb charged that the Board proposal “is not a plan for integration. It is a plan to close schools.” The plan would “more than likely add to the segregation of many black students,” he said, adding that many of the predominantly white schools to which black students would be allowed to transfer did not have space the available to accommodate all those who might actually wish to do so. A CCHR position paper Goldfarb distributed listed a number of schools where the group feared the Board plan would actually exacerbate segregation. The paper further warned that the plan places the burden on the black students to move to the white schools, does not address itself to staff desegregation, and still leaves a lot of schools segregated. Goldfarb claimed that the Board has yet to indicate that it is serious about desegregation, and characterized it as being “just as intractable as the Board of Education of Boston.” Feeble proposals Mesiah shared Goldfarb’s displeasure. “By submitting these feeble kinds of proposals,” he said, the Board is raising the level of expectation of people.” He warned that if and when a court decision came down demanding more serious integration efforts, “the letdown, I feel, will be so traumatic you will end up with another Boston, because of the deceit involved.” Mesiah accused the press of collusion with the Board in deceiving the public. He charged that the media continuously Board actions as presented genuinely remedial, while still knowing, for instance, that the recent proposal “does not come the meeting close to constitutional requirements to desegregate a school.” ' Goldfarb also outlined efforts by his organization to gather evidence for building a case for a “metropolitan remedy” for racial segregation. He said that CCHR volunteer investigators have uncovered “literally thousands” of restrictive covenants denying the use of suburban property to blacks. He mentioned that in the Town of Tonawanda alone, acres can be mapped where “builders, developers, and owners of the property have said, ‘No negroes can live in these houses, domestic unless they are servants’.” Some development Mesiah then interjected that one of these developers is now a New York State Regent. This was an apparent reference to Amherst real estate entrepreneur Willard A. Genrich.

However, nothing is shown,” claimed Norm Effram, a lawyer for Legal Aid Clinic. However, when asked whether “rip-off” was a good word to describe the FSA situation, Judy Taylor of Western New York’s Better Business Bureau replied that it was not. “Many of the higher prices are due to legitimate higher operating costs,” she said. Adding that her organization had received “no complaints” from students on any instance of FSA price gouging, she recommended that students be made “more aware” of the services offered by the Better Business Bureau. The Student Legal Aid Clinic affirmed too that it had received “no complaints whatsoever” from students disgruntled with the pricing policies of FSA. ’.., Wednesday, 25 February 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �) > Executive Vice President Both David Brownstein and Steve Spiegel seem capable of stepping into the position of Executive Vice President, but again, neither are all that great. Both are articulate and self-assured enough to handle the often chaotic Student Senate meetings an important requirement of the job and both convey an adequate understanding of how to approach the pressing political issues on campus today. Brownstein's experience as IRC President would doubtless be useful to him as SA Executive Vice President, but we only hope that his dedication to the interests of Editorial — — fact remains that our student is responsible for managing nearly one million dollars of mandatory student fees. Many of the services and activities which SA provides with the money are in danger of elimination and cutbacks, so the importance of intelligent voting this year cannot be stressed enough. but the government Leadership, accountability and activism are the qualities to look for in candidates for SA offices. Because of the near-invisible election process on this campus, the burden of identifying such people rests largely on the shoulders of the school newspaper. Experience teaches us, however, that no matter how much faith we put in a particular candidate before an election, we usually end different warrants some effort toward endorsing those candidates whom we feel are more acceptable than their at least opponents. In p?st years, we have made an effort to be as conspicuous as possible in endorsing SA candidates. This year we have avoided that policy for a number of reasons. First, we feel that a less aggressive approach on The Spectrum's part might foster more independent thinking on the voters' part. Second, historically we have been perhaps unduly influential in determining the outcome of the election a role which this year we would not relish. Finally, with few exceptions, there are simply no candidates this year who are impressive or inspiring enough to warrant our unqualified praise. — President After sitting through four days of interviews, we decided it's not that there is no one on campus who can fill the role of SA President it's that the people who could really handle the job well either don't want any part of it or are running for other positions. In this bicentennial year, it should be noted that there are no Washingtons, or Lincolns, Roosevelts running for president. Not even a Millard Fillmore. In fact, it was much easier to decide who we didn't like than who we liked. Because none of the candidates had that special something that we were looking for (passions, fire), the following merely recounts the plusses and minuses of each. As director of Student Affairs this year, Steve Schwartz has personally fought to save the Record Coop and to guarantee student membership on the advisory board of Parcel B. He has also been involved in several SA lawsuits, although we wonder what he would do for student services if the court system proves a dead end. Mr. Schwatz gave a good analysis of what went wrong in SA this past year, but there is no assurance that he will not fall into the same trap if elected. Still, his determination to make SA an open government is admirable and we believe he fully grasps the urgency of the state of affairs — on campus today. Assuming that Mr. Schwartz can put his ideas into action, we give him the edge over all the candidates running for President. There is no doubt that Dave Shapiro is a hard worker and he did a commandable job as Director of Academic Affairs this year. The trouble is that he should have stayed in that office. President is not the job for him. While he recognizes that Dr. Ketter has abused his power of review over mandatory fees, Mr. Shapiro is too willing to leave many things just as they are. For example, his Page eight . abstention the Academic in Planning Committee's ■ vote to eliminate V Social i I 1V v Sciences and Tolstoy Colleges indicates an unwillingness to stick his neck out in the face of official disapproval. Al Donohue, formerly of the UB Vets Club, is a breath of fresh air in a stale environment. His primary goal is to bring larger political issues into the scope of SA through University-wide teach-ins on inflation and the relationship of U.S. foreign policy to unemployment. Mr. Donohue, however, is an individualist, and we are concerned that he might have problems with working students who do not necessarily support his views. Mr. Donohue is also inexperienced in SA procedure, although he has been at this University on and off since 1967 and has developed an excellent historical perspective. We'd like to see him instill a little activism on this campus but not as SA President. Abdullah Wahaab lacks a sophisticated view of most issues he'll give a slick answer for any question, no matter how poorly thought out, as long as it will better his chances of winning. We admire John Boncek's enthusiasm. He is bright and very articulate. However, he has no experience in any aspect of SA or University affairs and this is often reflected in his ideas. For example, his suggestion to allow- the faculty absolute control over academics (“because they should know more about it than students") is in our minds totally undesirable. Mr. Boncek has done well for a start. Give him another year and he could be primo presidential timber. Unfortunately, we were unable to interview Daniel Sherrer. We suggest that you read his statement in Monday's issue of The Spectrum to find out exactly where he stands. The Spectrum Wednesday, 25 February 1976 . T • • J dorm students extends to those of the wider University community as well. We share his view that students must be represented on the Parcel B advisory board, and agree with him that the extension of mandatory fee guidelines beyond their present limits is a dangerous trend which should be actively opposed. HoWever, his statement that "the [Student] Senate this year was one of the best," defies understanding, and his proposal to institute a "note-taking service" (a plan whereby notes would be taken in large lectures and later sold to students who may have missed class that day) seems like a waste of time. Of the three candidates running for this office, Steve Spiegel demonstrated the best understanding of the operations and potential of the Student Senate. His record as a Senator, Assembly, and Task Force member is an impressive one, and there is little doubt that he would chair the Senate meetings as competently as anyone. He too has the right ideas about mandatory fee guidelines and Parcel B representation. His plan of action in the hypothetical event that President Ketter threatened to close down campus movies is methodical and unimaginative. Brownstein said he would instruct his fellow officers to disobey Ketter's order, and then wait for the administration to make the first aggressive move. Jeff Lessoff in our view would be a poor choice for Executive Vice President. While his concern for the need for "real change in this school," is healthy, we don't feel that he is capable of bringing any about. His enthusiasm for the maintenance and extension of mandatory fee guidelines "so that we can know exactly what we can and cannot do with our money" demonstrates an ignorance of perhaps the most disturbing trend at this University namely Kettet's efforts to usurp as much student control over activities and services as he can. Lessoff does not appear capable of providing the leadership necessary to run the Senate, let alone act as substitute SA President should the need arise. - Editor's Note Editor's Note: These endorsements were made after interviews with almost all of the candidates by a consensus of The Spectrum's Campus Editors, Feature Editor, Sports Editor, Managing Editors, and Editor-in-Chief The Spectrum — Vol. 26, No. 60 Wednesday, 25 February 1976 Editor in Chief — Amy Dunkin Managing Editor Richard Korman Howard Greenblatt Managing Editor Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Business Manager Howard Koenig — — - - Arts Bill Maraschiello Randi Schnur Renita Browning Laura Bartlett Feature . .

By the time they have thoroughly grasped the ins and outs of office, it is time for another election and the learning process must start over again with a different set of students. Carol Block is making her second bid for SA Treasurer, riding on her experience and record of this past year. Ms. Block, who presently sits on two ad hoc committees that are looking to defend student expenditures of mandatory fees, feels that now more than ever, SA needs people who know what they're doing. Her presence on the Executive Committee, along with her familiarization with the day to day financial management of SA, will lend a desired degree of continuity to the new administration. Additionally, she would like to maintain the continuity by training an assistant treasurer this year who will run and hopefully win the position of Treasurer next year. Probably the most trying phase of the Treasuer's job comes at budget time when every undergraduate club and service on campus tries for their share of the $800,000 pie. Ms. Block, having had the advantage of supervising budget hearings last Director of Student Affairs Both Lee Peres and Steve Ferst seem equally able to handle the position of Director of Student Affairs. Although only a freshman, Mr. Ferst has taken the initiative to investigate the University on his own, developing a commendable working knowledge of the overall administrative structure. In addition to using his office as a link between students and the administration, he has devised a unique way to bring for funds. Ms. Block has never made her commuter and dormitory students together by setting up i Concern for financial accountability a secret special encounter sessions. person, Mr. self-confident, outspoken apparently An approve refused to in the past, she has and problems concentrate on student rights Peres intends to requests for funds which were ostensibly inappropriate or did- not fall within SUNY if elected.

His idea to use a bring needed stability to SA in addition to table in the Norton Hall Center Lounge to solicit student executing her duties well. For those reasons, opinion regularly may be one way to alleviate the lack of we support her for another term as Treasurer. communication between SA and its constituents. Finally, Ms. Block's only opponenet, Robert Ferst and Peres both understood the role of the Student Powell, has participated in many activities Affairs Director in freshman and transfer orientation planduring the five years he has been at this ning and they offered specific ideas on how to set up workshops and distribute information.

Not only did she have no clear conception of what by his position, Mr. Powell would like to see the job entails, but she knew nothing about freshman oriena “new birth" in SA. However, we still say tation and had no specific ideas on how to run her office.

We don't believe she really knows for the job. year, is not at all overwhelmed by the potential problems this grab bag for money can cause. To ensure that money was spent legitimately this year, Ms. Block and the Finance Committee plan to spend the first three weeks of the budget process auditing every SA recognized organization that is reapplying — Director pf Academic Affairs Vice President for Sub Board It's too bad the three candidates for Sub Board Vice President are not running for three different positions. Each one easily demonstrated why he or she is the type of student SA needs so desperately. However, since all three cannot be elected to the same office, we throw our hats to Jonathan Roller, who combines an excellent working knowledge of SA with the right degree of craziness. Mr. Roller's perceptive analysis of the problems facing this University make him one of the few students to come along in the last several years who can take an up-front role on this campus. And if all else fails, Mr. Roller could easily talk any stubborn administrator into submission. One of his biggest concerns, as a member of the Sub Board Board of Directors, would be to correct the "horrendous" health care conditions on the Amherst Campus. He summed up the problem nicely when he said, "something bad will happen first, then they'll say we need help out here." In addition, he believes Sub Board has to have an active role in Parcel B because "UBF is clearly not interested in students at all." There's only one thing we wonder about Mr. Roller. Why didn't he run for President? Kathy Venezia, co-Director of the Human Sexuality Center, is sincerely concerned with getting new faces and personalities into SA. Her intentions are admirable yet we feel she doesn't know quite enough about the politics of Sub Board and could possibly be intimidated by some of the more arrogant people she would have to confront. From her experience over the past year, Judy Sack has acquired a good deal of insight into Sub Board. She feels, for example, that while the Sub Board Directors should not dictate internal policy of any of the divisions, they should work in creating a democratic system which would mandate equal access to all students. As we said before, we wish both Ms. Vanezia and Ms. Sack were running for other positions so they could become part of the SA Executive Committee. We hope, whether they win the election or not, they continue to channel their enthusiasm into helping the student body in some way. Director of Student Activities and Services We are reluctant to single out any one of candidates running for this position. While all three had some ideas about activities and services, none of them seems capable of providing particularly strong leadership once in office. With student services endangered by incessant administrative nitpicking, their overall naivete and lack of outrage was the disturbing. Patricia Lovejoy has a refreshing enthusiasm and spunk that could add some color to SA. She was also the only candidate who stated that "Ketter is overstepping his bounds” in his attempts to manipulate mandatory fee guidelines. However, her general knowledge of the campus has many gaps and she has no practical way of implementing many of her ideas. For example, she says she would like to bring football back to this campus but she could not tell us where the $20,000 needed for such a venture would come from. Jeff Winkler earned a point for mention- ing summer orientation as a means for familiarizing students with the SA clubs. He also wants to see commuter and dormitory organizations (such as Commuter Council and IRC) sponsor joint activities. If elected, Mr. Winkler would probably do a decent job in coordinating activities. Yet his analysis of the political situation on campus in relation to mandatory fees and student services is much too weak. Dennis Black impressed us as this year's "Ted Knight" candidate. He feels student representation on the Board of Directors of Parcel B is necessary for their own protection. An even better idea, he believes, would be for the UBF Corporation to pull back from Parcel B and let Sub Board or SA raise the necessary capital for the project. He also wants to "get together a valid survey on athletics." We doubt Mr. Black could do anything significant to make SA anything more than the lackluster organization >t has generally been. As best as we can tell, Andy Lalonde appears to be the best candidate for Director of Academic affairs. A member of the SA Academic Task Force this past year, he seems to know the job inside and out. Mr. Lalonde is very familiar with the different branches of the University to which his the administration, the job would constantly take him faculty, the departments, the academic clubs, and the Colleges. His analysis of the recently-released Academic Planning Committee Reports, that it was written by too few people in too short a time and that it looks more towards career-oriented education, is quite accurate. Much to his credit, he did not overemphasize the usefulness of SCATE, Although he said the results could be used to set up teaching workshops through the Faculty Senate for instructors who have forgotten how to do it. Finally, for the record, Mr. Lalonde swears he is not' related to that other Lalonde person who's been hanging around the SA Executive Washroom in the last 12 months. — Steve Walti and Bill Finkelstein, the other candidates for Academic Affairs Director, are both freshmen who need more time to develop the proper cynicism necessary to deal with this University. Mr. Walti seems too awed by the while thing and had trouble finding the words to express his ideas. In the short time he has been here, Mr. Finkelstein has become familiar with academics through the Engineering Department and Clifford Furnas College. However, he has too much faith in the "good graces" of the administration and probably wouldn't know what to do if a real academic crisis occurs. SASU Delegates As a whole, the students running for SASU Delegate am the most interesting group of candidates in this election. SASU has a very important role to play in the coming year, fighting cutbacks in Albany that could have devastating effects on students and the entire State University system. Outstanding in the field of candidates vying for the three SASU slots are Frank Jackalone and llene Cohn. Mr. Jackalone didn't realize where his true talents lay when he ran for SA President two years ago. At this point, he probably knows as much about SASU as any indidivual in the state and we believe he can use this expertise to maximize the organization's effectiveness, llene Cohn holds a national ranking in college debate competition and her gift of persuasive speaking couldn't be put to better use than in legislative lobbying. Honorable mention for SASU Delegate goes to Joyce Levin, Juan Gonzalez, and Glenn Englander. Mr. Gonzalez' prime concern is promoting minority membership in SASU, Mr. Engender wants to work with the Board of Trustees on behalf of student control of mandatory fees, and Ms. Levin hopes to inform more students about the function of SASU. We feel any of these three candidates, though lacking somewhat in practical knowledge of SASU, could rise to the position of delegate with proper coaching.

As a medical student I know that most of the nutritional facts are true. Dana left out one point concerning Vitamin B12 which is found exclusively in animal products. This essential vitamin is stored in body tissues, and the average individual has a three to five year supply. Vegetarians who avoid all animal products may eventually develop a serious deficiency. The immorality of cruelly destroying animals (which is recognized by many of the Eastern religions) is as indisputable as is the selfishness in Americans who use grain to feed cattle instead of people. However, it is curious that those who oppose “human chauvinism” and the killing of animals to satisfy appetites are usually animal chauvinists who are insensitive to the feelings of plants. '■ A celery plant chopped in half or a potato pulled from the earth has been murdered even though they do not cry out so that human ears are offended.

Yet animal chauvinists who are so concerned about chickens and puppy dogs are oblivious to our vegetable friends and chomp on spinach and broccoli the way others chew the blood red flesh of slaughtered cows. The thoughtful reader will be left wondering: if and wrong to kill plants, it is wrong to kill what can we eat? Nature has provided us with abundance. Our animal friends do not mind giving us milk in return for love and care and respect. Chickens are happy to lay eggs all day, and an unfertilized egg is not a soulful chicken. If Americans stopped eating the flesh of martyred animals, the cholesterol in eggs and cheese would not be excessive. Plants provide many foodstuffs which can be harvested (without murder. Nectar, food for the gods, should be good enough for humans too. Trees actually prefer to have humans relieve them of the weight of their fruit so that their branches will not bend and break from the burden. Seeds and grains are offered to humans by plants, and there is no necessity to kill the parent organisms to get them. These foods are gifts from the society of plants and animals. This diet would provide humans with all essential nutrients. However, if humans continue to slaughter ruthlessly, pur plant and animal friends may stop providing us so generously. There is a question of the adequacy of these sources of food to nourish the entire human population. The human species has burgeoned through the exploitation of other living things so that it is impossible to live harmoniously with all creature-persons at our present number. Since all known methods of birth control, save one, have problems of carcinogenic potential or unsatisfactory efficacy, there is only one solution. We must stop fucking around.

The Veterans Association urges all veterans, and the general student population to vote in the ongoing student elections. If you want a voice in how YOUR MONEY is spent, now is the time to act. The Student Associations on this campus are entrusted with nearly ONE-MILLION DOLLARS in mandatory and voluntary student fees YOUR MONEY! - By not caring, not voting, leaving it to “someone else” you have expressed your opinion and lost your right to it! - — U.B. Veterans Association because of an exclusive reliance on paper answers. Paper answers assume that the people who dictate or administer the SUNY system, or for that matter, any hierarchial system, are moral, intelligent and responsive, that economics in a competitive society can make a special feudal principality, a special case out of the centers of moral, scholarly and socially responsible training, namely universities. This and similar attitudes towards reality, manifested by the response of Michele Smith, GSEU, The Spectrum, Coalition to Fight the Cuts, and letters from righteously concerned students to the cutbacks, is insufficient, at times dead wrong and will not Stop cutbacks. We will go down without realizing what we could have done to withstand cutbacks and generate a unified progressive movement to control our lives. This is not yet an epitaph. The ways to stop the cutbacks must not be paper answers. And each one of you commrades should by now know how to transcend paper answers.

NORTON RECREATION DESK or 2. HOLLY FRANKEL - 831-3828 - Staff Writer After an anemic 0-5 start, the women’s swim team recovered to win three times in its last four meets. “They’ve developed confidence. They know they can swim against New York State competition,” explained coach Barbara Sevier after her team crushed Niagara University 92-29 Saturday at Clark Hall. The Purple Eagles, who lost some of their swimmers to the Sophomore Semi-Formal held the night before, had a hard time staying afloat as Buffalo took first place in 13 out of the 15 events. The mermaids were led by Luan Bonfantix who swam on both the winning relay teams (the 200 yard medley relay and 200 yard free style relay) and also picked up a win for herself in the 50 yard breast Stroke. She also took second in the 100 yard individual medley. In the freestyle events, Sandy Yokota dominated the competition with a first place finish in the 50 yafd free style, and second place in the 200 and 100 yard free style. Yokota also anchored the 200 yard freestyle relay. However, Buffalo’s best performance of the day was turned in by Liz Repaski, who broke the school record in the 100 yard backstroke of 1:10.2. Repasky, who has been beaten only once this season, also won in the 50 yard free style, and swam the first lap in both of the winning relays. Sevier was pleased with the team’s performance, but thought they would have swam better against better competition. “Our kids swam well, but they didn’t have their best times,” she commented. They weren’t challenged, and they need someone in the next lane to really push them.” Most of the team (8 out of 11 swimmers) will be going to the state tournament in Potsdam, and Sevier is guardedly optimistic about their chances. “There will be swimmers with better times, but I think we’ll do well,” she said. “We’ll give them .some competition.” This will be the first time the women swimmers have attended the meet.” Men swimmers still strong Wednesday, 25 February 1976 The Spectrum . .

Winning their title matches were Bulls Ray Pfeifer, Bruce Hadsell and Bob Martineck. Just a sophomore, Pfeifer has established himself as a top college wrestler. This is the second consecutive year in which he has won the tournament title. A junior, Hadsell is not a newcomer to the tournament either. He improved on last year’s second place finish with his win this time around. Buffalo’s other tournament champion, junior Bob Martineck, won despite being in his first major tournament ever. , COLOR _ * crowding problem.

Like Hadsell, Drasgow improved on his finish of last year, moving up from third to second. Tundo, only a freshman, responded to his first real tournament test by going all the way to the title bout, where he was defeated. Taking fourth places were juniors Paul Grandits and Jim Breed, who both came on strong during the latter part of the season. Breed especially has done his best wrestling during the last three weeks. Fifth place was clinched by freshman Tony Oliveri. Like Bulls of the past, he too should improve with time. The last of Buffalo’s all-state wrestlers was senior Daymond Clark. Placing sixth, Clark was sick with a fever and could only compete in the first round. In last year’s tournament at Geneseo, Clark placed third While the Bulls were devastating their New York State counterparts, Kirk Anderson, perhaps Buffalo’s top grappler, was forced to view the tournament from the bench rather than from the mat. Anderson, who sustained a chipped right elbow while wrestling against Colgate three weeks ago, will probably be unable to compete again this year. League test will tell After the tournament, Michael said, “1 was very pleased with the effort of the team.” However, the Bulls’ coach is reserving more enthusiastic comments for next week, after the Bulls travel to Penn State to compete in the Eastern League Championships. That tournament will decide who will be going to Arizona in two weeks to compete in the 46th annual NCAA Championships. Buffalo’s league record this season was 1-4, but the Bulls’ magnificent wrestling during the second half of the season indicates that they should be more competitive against Eastern League foes this weekend. The top two wrestlers in each weight class as well as seven wild card candidates will represent the Eastern League in Arizona. With only six teams competing, the Bulls should be able to qualify at least a couple of grapplers for the Arizona tournament. Michael is optimistic in his view of the opening tournament. “Right now it’s a brand new season. I think everybody has a chance to qualify.” Commenting on the fact that the Bulls might be going into the Eastern League Championships with a psychological advantage, Michael stated, “Winning never hurt anybody.” For some Bulls, the long season may come to a close, while for others it’s only the beginning.

They beat Cleveland State 97-86 on Saturday night at Erie Community College-North (one of the Bulls’ three home courts). The Bulls are now 9-15, while the Vikings, who are having an even tougher year, drop to 5-17. “Our offense wasn’t outstanding, but it was pretty good,” commented Bulls’ coach Leo Richardson after his team had scored its third highest point total of the season. “Our number four worked the best offense the passing game tonight,” Richardson noted. Both teams utilized the fast break as much as they could. “Our running game was pretty good at times,” Richardson added, “but it wasn’t smooth.” Buffalo had 32 assists but also 30 turnovers, both above average. — is sponsoring a workshop on - ballgame, but it still counted as a win for the — Bulls take charge early A jumpshot by Buffalo forward Ron McGraw with 14:46 left in the first half put Buffalo on top 9-8, and they never again relinquished the lead. That the beginning of a 14-2 scoring spree jumpshot by the BulliT Guard Gary Domzalski, who stands 6’1” tall, used a six-inch height advantage over Cleveland State’s STanley Quirk effectively during that streak. Domzalski, who usually runs the Bulls’ offense and only shoots when he’s open, began looking to shoot right from the start. On one play, Domzalski dribbled behind his back, reversed directions, dribbled behind his back again, and sent a fifteen foot jumper swishing through the net. “I'm just trying to play well in my last few games,” said Domzalski, a senior. He finished with 21 points (game high) shooting 10 for 13, and had 12 assists. The Bulls’ lead dropped to eight at halftime, but they managed to build it up to 20 points. Then Buffalo center Sam Pellom, the nation’s leading rebounder, committed his fourth foul and had to sit down. The Vikings came back, led by center Dave Kyle, and cut Buffalo’s lead to eight, but that was the closest they could come. “1 didn’t like it when we blew that big lead,” said Richardson. “But our kids hung in there pretty Robinson and Vemell Washington who took up the slack when Pellom sat down. “Vernell made a ’V* has the difference for us,” Richardson said. potential to help us a lot.” About Robinson, a junior college, transfer from Niagara Community College, Richardson said, ‘This is his first year facing this kind of competition. He’s begun to realize he can “ Play.” Although Robinson and Washington each hit the boards hard during Pellom’s absence, they couldn’t stop Cleveland State’s Kyle. But neither could Pellom. Kyle scored 21 points, including one eight minute stretch in the first half when he scored all of the Vikings’ points (nine). Kyle, who is among the nation’s top IS rebounders, pulled down either 14 or 19 rebounds, depending on whether you believe the Buffalo or Cleveland State statistician. Regardless of the number, Richardson was impressed. “He’s the hardest .working center we’ve faced so far,” the Bulls’ mentor said. “I can see why he’s something like twelfth or fourteenth in the nation in rebounds.” The Bulls have two games remaining this year. Saturday night, they plan Geneseo at Clark Hall and a week from tonight, they conclude their season at Buffalo State, a team they haven’t beaten in nine years. > ' . Wednesday, 25 February 1976 .

Purchases funded through state budget allocations take place in three stages from request to final dalivefy and payment, according to Charles Devendorf, Purchase Order Associate' Tor the University. The overall cost for processing a purchase order, $30-$40 takes into account handling of the purchase. If the requested item is stocked by Stores, the Central state-contracted warehouse on campus,' the purchase order is immediately issued, regardless of the item’s price. if an Hern is not on state contract, its price determineshow the oader will be handled. Devcndorf explained that items costing less than $500 can be ordered directly from a local vender. Orders costing $500~$1000 personnel hours, supplies and require the campus purchasing fixed costs, such as office office to obtain three informal price quotations.

The lowest bidder The second stage involves receives the contract. , On all orders exceeding $1500, the request is forwarded to the State Division of Standards and Purchase, said Devendorf. On S15jOO-S.2SOO orders, the Division of Standards and Purchase can place an order without competitive bids. Formal bids are required on items costing over S2S00, he added. Final payment is the third, and most time-consuming part of the The department that first is issued the the purchase good arrive, the sends the back to the The Purchase receipt of the item, to the campus It is then the State Audit and Control payment, according to Devendorf. He added that this last step may take as long as three . weeks. are Petty cash handled by the Office of Student Accounts, where vouchers of up to $25 may be accepted for small departmental purchases, Devendorf explained. The Student Association (SA) and Sub Board use a system called Reimbursement, Encumberance and Purchase (REP) in its disbursement of budgeted funds. The first step in processing a request for SA-budgeted funds is a check to see if the expenditure falls within mandatory fee guidelines, according to SA Treasurer Carol Block. If the funds are available and the request adheres to the terms of the organization’s budget, they “encumbered,” are explained Block. That budget is then adjusted so that even though the funds are not yet spent, they are nevertheless earmarked for the planned purchase. After this, the SA President and Treasurer or their designees approve and sign the REP form. The REP form must then be the University approved by administration, according to Block. The SA Treasurer then submits the form to the SA Banking Office, where the check is finally written. According to Block this entire process takes a minimum of ten business days. SA uses this procedure no matter how small the expense, and there are no petty cash vouchers. Block stated. SUNY administration hit hard by budget cuts Student services Course ofaction proposed The Student Association (SA) called together a roomful of students from several organizations Thursday night to come to grips with the current student services crisis at this University. Among the courses of action proposed was a drive to send a packet of petitions and letters supporting the services to the State University Board of Trustees and to SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer. "I-think it’s important that all student services work together in an effort to fight this threat and maintain our enterprises,” said SA President Michele Smith. Student representatives debated the advisability of requesting relief from Albany, questioning whether this should be a last resort. “If Albany decides to back Ketter in his attack on student services, we will have very little left to us in the way of options,” a representative at the meeting charged. However, counter arguments claimed the Board of Trustees is generally more responsive to student needs than local administrators. , The SUNY Central Administration is cutting its budget by $174,000 as part of a $52 million State University-wide cut proposed in Governor Carey’s new austerity budget, according to a SUNY spokesman. Hugh Touhey, Public Relations Director for SUNY Central, disclosed that while 33 positions have been cut at an estimated savings of $190,000, no salaries have been reduced. With allocations of $7.1 million, Central receives about 1.5 per cent of the SUNY budget. It was hardest hit by the budget cutbacks, shouldering a 12.5 per cent budget cut as opposed to a 1 per cent cut for the universities, said Touhey. In the past, critics of SUNY Central have charged that it receives too much money, and is a bureaucratic mess. Justifying these allocations, Touhey enumerated the executive body’s Wide, responsibilities. ' Steven Schwartz, SA Director of Student Affairs and non-voting student representative to 1 the College Bureaucracy shrinking?

The move is designed to prevent the recurrence of abuses of power by the CIA which have been reported in recent months. The executive order places CIA Director George Bush in charge of all intelligence operations conducted by the CIA, Defense Intelligence Agency (DJA), and the National Security Agency (NSA). It also creates a three-person civilian board whose purpose is to oversee the intelligence agencies and make sure that they do not overstep their authority. The President retained absolute control over the entire defense intelligence establishment, stating that “the final and ultimate responsibility falls on the shoulders of the President of the United States.” r Chinese women Different but equal to men As part of the first major overhaul of the CIA since its inception in 1947, Ford said he would ask Congress to outlaw peacetime a«acanatinn attempts against foreign leaders. A number of foreign heads of state were reportedly the targets of covert CIA assassination plans In the late 1950’s and 1960’s. Instant stew Several of the President's proposals brought instant reaction from critics, who claimed that the President would retain too much power, and that the Ford plan would endanger the constitutional rights of the citizenry. One of the criticized proposals was the recommendation that it be made a federal crime to leak secret information to the press about the “sources and methods” of gathering national security information. The most famous incidence of this type was the leaking of the “Pentagon Papers” by Daniel Ellsberg, a former Defense Department employee. These documents traced the history of United States involvement in the Vietnam War. Another controversial topic was Ford’s announcement that he would seek from Congress the authority to open the U.S. mails for the purposes of foreign intelligence. For the same purpose. Ford called upon the Congress to pass legislation which would specifically permit electronic surveillance of persons inside the United Sta*"s for national security reasons, with the approval of a judge. Foreign objects Ford also established a policy limiting the infiltration of groups to those organizations which are made up largely of foreign nations, or directly controlled by a foreign government. In addition, he barred such devious practices as burglary, the use of dangerous drugs on unsuspecting persons, and the illegal use of income-tax information. Similar guidelines are being prepared for the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) by Attorney General Edward Levi, who is expected to make his recommendations public very soon. In general, the President’s reorganization of the CIA will result in more centralization of power at the White House level, and will also make Bush the most powerful CIA chief ever. The prime example of this centralization of power is Ford’s refusal to agree to let the Congress in on covert operations before they happen, or to make the Congress part of the decision-making process. Ford said the main safeguard against an executive abuse of power would be the President’s accountability to the American people. There will be a DEBATE Tuesday, between the candidate for Director of Academic Affairs at 4 pm room 233 Norton This is also a regularly scheduled meeting of the ACADEMIC AFFAIRS TASK FORCE so representatives are expected to attend, as well as all interested students. Page two The Spectrum Monday, 23 February 1976 . . Spectrum Staff Writer Women’s liberation groups joined with the nationalist groups to defend China against the invading powers during World War II. In the civil war which followed, women’s liberation was temporarily put behind the liberation of the entire Chinese nation. After 1949, however, women’s struggles for education and careers resumed. In China today, contraceptives and family planning services, as well as day-care facilities, are free. Work outside the home is encouraged, and women now have a part in all of China’s industries. They are encouraged to speak out and become politically active, said Chan. Compared to the more “westernized” women of Hong Kong or Taiwan, said Chan, Chinese women are “sodall and politically equal.” China emphasizes that men and women are “different” but not “unequal.” The image of women that Chinese leaders hope to build is that of a strong, intelligent, revolutionary working for the liberation of all Women and minorities in China have made great strides toward equality since the Revolution of 1949, according to Dr. John Chan, leader of a Life Workshop held in Norton Hall this past Thursday. The workshop on “Women and Minorities in China” was part of the “Insights into China” series begun two weeks ago and offered jointly by Life Workshops and the Chinese Student Association. Life Workshops are free, non-credit courses offered by the Division of Student Affairs. Women’s traditional place in China was explored as background to a discussion of their role since the Revolution. Traditional Chinese women were taught obedience to men above all first to fathers or older brothers, next to husbands, and later to sons. Although women were otherwise ignored in Chinese literature, according to Chan, the downfall of each succeeding dynasty was somehow attributed to people. women. Ten percent of China’s population is made up of As in other cultures, contacts with Chinese minority including Mongols, Korean. groups, women were avoided during their menstrual period Tibetans, and various mountain tribes, said Dr. Chan. they birth. they giving times, when were At these or Communications are made difficult by the fact that were considered “polluted” or “unclean.” speaks its own dialect, and many also Women’s liberation in China began with a each group have their own system of writing.

The board’s action comes amidst mounting evidence that radioactive materials used by have been reactors transported through the city adequate safety without precautions. nuclear Approval of the ban has extended indefinitely the interim ban that the board imposed last summer, and has set the stage for a legal clash between the city and the federal Nuclear Regulatory Commision (NRC), which has threatened to challenge the ban in it wants the court because shipments resumed. Only a speck For years, NRC has ignored the warnings of respected scientists and allowed the nuclear industry to fly radioactive plutonium, a material, into reactor raw Because Kennedy Airport. plutonium is the' most carcinogenic element known to man, inhaling plutonium dioxide even a speck as small a powder will cause lung grain of pollen — — cancer. * Only a 3 percent release of a typical SO-pound air shipment of plutonium could have produced up to 100,000 lung cancers, Dr. to Marvin 'according Resnikoff, a theoretical physicist on the staff of the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG). Before the temporary ban took effect, NRC was also licensing truck shipments of highly toxic radioactive wastes through some .of the most populated areas of the city. The wastes were transported inside huge, lead-lined casks, even though federal investigators had documented their previously vulnerability to collisions and leaks. Antinuclear movement Although these dangers have existed since the birth of the the industry, nuclear power “antinuclear” movement did not surface until a little more than a when year ago, consumer advocate Ralph Nader began publicizing studies by scientists which showed the extent to which the nuclear industry was operating unsafely. investigative researchers continued to turn up evidence of hazardous practices, antinuclear groups began attracting support from increasing numbers of As consumers en groups, and v i ronment aUst s, government officials. At roughly the same time last summer that the Board of Health imposed its temporary ban. President Ford signed into law a bill introduced by Congressman James Scheuer, Democrat of Queens, prohibiting of shipments further air plutonium into the United States until a new container, sturdy enough to withstand an air crash, could be developed. Not long afterward, the proposal to forever banish dangerous of shipments radioactive materials from the city’s streets and airways was drawn up by Dr. Leonard Solon, a physicist who heads the Health Department’s Bureau of Radiation Control. On November 6, the Board of Health had an open hearing to solicit public opinion on the proposed ban, and on January 15, approved that ban. Plutonium ban With the odds of having a nuclear catastrophe in New York considerably City now diminished, antinuclear groups plan to press for similar bans in population centers around the country. County Nassau Executive Ralph Caso has appointed a commission to study the feasibility of a ban throughout Nassau County, and reportedly plans to coordinate the project with Suffolk County officials. is Their concern understandable: if all five nuclear Hovering like a ghost over these plans, however, are the powerful and amply bankrolled pronuclear and the lobby, prospect of a long, drawn-out court battle between the city and the federal government. If the ban is stricken down in federal court in what may be a landmark test of the right of a local municipality to set its own standards of health and safety, much of the local antinuclear strategy could be In addition to these dangers, the absence of adequate security has increased the likelihood that a terrorist group could sabotage wastes or hijack plutonium and use it to fashion a crude atomic bomb. Not long ago, a graduate engineering student at radioactive planned now for the Massachusetts Institute of construction by the Long Island Technology, using data available (LILCO) are Lighting Company in many university libraries, was built, Nassau and Suffolk could, able to design a workable atomic within 20 years, become the site bomb within five weeks.

The forum with Ketter is open to all graduate students, and it may be opened to all interested members of the university community. Budget revision for UUAB The Sub Board Directors revised the budgets of many of the University Union Activities Board (UUAB) committees at an executive meeting last week. Major changes include a $4500 reduction in the Coffeehouse budget, $7,000 less for the Music Committee, and a $4000 cut from Film. Sub Board Treasurer Bruce Campbell explained that the affected committees “are just not pulling in the income to justify their [present] spending In other action, the Board amended its by-laws, charged Division Directors to begin advertising position openings in March and set up a committee to write a constitution for UUAB. The committee shall be composed of two Board members, three persons from UUAB and a Norton Hall staff member. A request from Women’s Voices for an additional $400 subsidy was denied. By unanimous vote, the Board changed the month of its annual meeting to elect new officers levels.” “This is the first time that this has been done,” explained Sub Board Executive Director Tom from May to April. This was done to provide some VanNortwick. “In the past everyone went on carry-over between the old officers and the new. spending his or her merry way until the end of the Beginning in March, all student positions in Sub year.

The brain area is filled with bongwater and though the pipe’s design is novel, its operation is similar to that of a common waterpipe. One of the most popular implements ever designed is a large wine decanter with a three inch funnel bowl and half inch rubber tubing. Even when filled with snow to mellow the smoke, it would leave even the hardiest partier with tears in his eyes and fire on his brain. The pipe consists of an 821 V£” cast iron elbow joint, a cardboard dummy rocket engine casing, and 15Vi" of 3/4” diameter electrical conduit. The carburetor is an air hose connector. All parts were received courtesy of Mobil Chemical Inc., Macedon, N.Y. In comparison to ordinary pipes, the peace Pipe’s stem is larger in proportion to the blowl, resulting in nearly 100 percent draw, and seven counts of manslaughter. Another pipe is make up of two fishbowls on a wooden stand with an aquarium pump in between. The pot is placed in one of the fishbowls, lit, and then covered. The other fishbowl is filled with liquid (peppermint schnapps recommended) and sealed. The smoke is pumped from one fishbowl, through the liquid in the other, back through the pump and forced down your throat. ‘The recyler’ is 100 percent efficient in that it wastes no smoke. “It’s a bong, a hookah, and a shotgun pipe all wrapped in one. It makes commercial mex work like Colubian. Its only drawbacks are that it’s a pain in the ass to clean, and you can’t eat it if the cops bust down your door,” a noted expert explained. by Cliff Dickson Staff Writer Spectrum Pot smokers across the country are being inundated with gadgets used exclusively for smoking marijuana, from instruments designed to subtly elevate the user’s consciousness, to those that beat him into submission. From the simple corn cob pipe and rolling papers of the past, students have progressed to various complicated and often inspired means of marijuana consumption. They run the gamut from expensive electrical contraptions that do everything short of performing unnatural acts with the owner to an apple pierced in three places. But whether store-bought or homemade, the purpose of the devices is the same. Bong and toker Among the new breed of paraphernalia, commercially manufactured and available at local head shops, the bong and the toker are the most popular. The bong is a cylindrical acrylic tube with a small bowl attached. A finger hole is punctured in the side of the tube to act as a carburetor, delaying smoke inhalation until the bowl has been emptied and the chamber filled with smoke. A wate coolant is employed to ensure smoother smoking. The Toker (a registered brand trademark) is also a water cooled pipe, operating on the same carburetor principle as the bong. Doctors and killers What about other pipes? An ornament from a psychiatrist’s office has been implemented for illicit purposes. ‘The Doctor’ is a ceramic skull intended for use as a candle holder. It has been ingeniously modified for dope smoking. Where a candle once might have been, now Dr. Death And then there is ‘Dr. Death.’ Part chemistry equipment, various pipe components, and Bic pens topped with a brass liberty bell-bowl, Dr. Death has all the features. From top to bottom, it displays a host of removable bowls from which to choose, a stash chamber, a combination carburetor-shotgun, plus the sport option decal (skull and crossbones). The only negative aspect of this pipe is that none of my roommates have gone to class since I built it. ‘The mong’ is an altered pretzel can. The can was punctured and pipe parts were inserted. The key to the apparatus is the gas mask attached to the toking end, which acts in conjunction with the water coolant to allow more violent hits simultaneously through the nose and mouth.

The theme of the rally, organized by the Revolutionary, Student Brigade is, “We won’t pay more for less.” SASU tables its dismissal decision The Student Association of the State University (SASU) has tabled its decision on the dismissal of Executive Vice, President Betty Pohanka until its March 13 membership meeting. According to SASU Executive Committee Member Frank Jackalone, “Pohanka was not a student in the State University (SUNY) system when she was elected. She could not have legally run for office.” The dispute over Pohanka’s Executive Vice Presidency extends to the Student Assembly, an organization created by the SUNY Board of Trustees to which all SUNY schools automatically belong. SASU is a coalition of student governments in the SUNY system, whose membership is voluntary. Each SASU member school pays dues and is also member of the Student Assembly. Non SUNY students are ineligible to hold either a delegate or officer position in the Student Assembly or in SASU. Pohanka has already been dismissed as an officer in the Student Assembly, but due to legal technicalities has not been dismissed by SASU. According to Jackalone, an attempt was made to “uncertify” Pohanka’s election to SASU, but according to the organization’s by-laws the Executive Committee cannot declare an election “uncertified.” The decision on Pohanka’s non-student status and budgetary concerns will be the primary subjects of the next SASU membership meeting. a COMMUTER BREAKFAST Wednesday , Feb. 25th 8:00 — 12 noon Norton 233 Free coffee, tea and hot chocolate Doughnuts only 10c Disco the latest dance craze by Jerry Rosoff Spectrum Staff Writer "Gotta dance, gotta dance Gene Kelly in Singin' in the Rain This country, as well as many others, has been hit by the Disco Dance craze. It is this new craze that is once again filling the discotheques, and bringing dancing back to the couples rather than to the individual. Tom Ralabate, instructor of the Disco-Dance Workshop at this University, views the early 60’s as the beginnings of the Disco scene. It all began with Chubby Checker and the Twist. According to Ralabate, it was this that signaled the end of “jitterbugging M and the beginning of a new era in dance. “With jitterbugging you had to know the steps, and how to follow,” said Ralabate. “Disco offered total freedom of movement.” This was Disco in it’s early stages, a time when the Twist, the Monkey, the Jerk, and the Swim were taking the nation by storm. It was a time when parents were openly critical of the new dances, while privately practicing them. Disco is quite different now. It slowly progressed and became more sophisticated and structured. Touching and dancing with an actual partner, which was virtually non-existant in the early years of Disco, is now its basic thrust, Ralabate feels that the first dance to re-introduce physical contact came with the Bump. Ken Grubb, manager of Unde Sam’s, one of Buffalo’s top Disco’s, disagrees slightly with Ralabate. Grubb feels that the new Disco, which began in this area around November of 1974 started with the Hustle. Which ever view is more accurate, the Bump and the Hustle both brought about the resurgence of partner and line dances. Actual Disco dancing requires “two to tango” 'ith a of body contact. Most dancers are .. welcoming this change, and many wonder why it didn’t come about sooner. Don .Tomasulo, drummer with the grouj) Goodfeel which has been appearing in many of the clubs around town, has noticed the partner dances mentioned by Grubb and Ralabate. “Most of th4 requests we get are for songs to which you can da the Bump and Hustle.” He has also seen a change ifl the attendance of many clubs. Before the suddefl shift to Disco dancing, mostly singles would make the dance scene. Now, more and more couples ait apparing in discotheques and dance bars. Grubb sees the change in dancing styles as a “natural progression” within the culture. Not all pop music can be considered Disco. “Disco music is more orchestrated” than regular pop musk, said Grubb. “It is much freer flowing, not herky-jerky like hard rock. It’s happy type music.” Disco music has an Afro-Cuban rhythm, according to Ralabate. “You can feel the beat and tempo of the music.” In his workshop, Ralabate follows a different approach rather than just simply teaching the basic steps, beginning his classes with warm-up exercises consisting of various body movements. Most of these movements can be considered Disco. The Workshop has been so successful that a second one has been added, with the possibility of even a third. The classes might soon be getting into jitterbugging. Right now they are working on a line dance called Busstop. Disco still has a long way to go in its development. Grubb feels the next step will be music with a Latin-American beat. Louie Druth, a student at this University, disagrees with Grubb. He feels that Disco has reached its peak this year, although he does not see its decline in the near future.

Page seven �The answer is yes EditPrial To the Editor. a An ugly disturbance took place 'Friday night at the Parliament and Funkadelics concert in Clark Hall, when an estimated 1000 people forced their way into the capacity-filled gym. The gate-crashers some of whom were ticket holders broke a door and several windows and uprooted a water cooler (which eventually flooded the basement due to the broken pipes). Luckily, no arrests were made, there were no reported injuries, and the property damage was relatively minor. Campus Security should be commended for refraining from any rash action that might have inflamed the situation even further. In the aftermath of this unfortunate incident, a number of questions deserve to be answered. The Norton Hall Ticket Office, which had sole control of tickets, sold 1800 tickets the capacity of Clark Hall. Yet when 1800 people were admitted and the doors of the gym were closed, there were still ticket holders waiting outside. Why? Were people let in without tickets? Were tickets counterfeited, as has happened at events here before? If so, by whom? Was there money pocketed by someone as a result of this fiasco? The damage to the gym was certainly uncalled for. Yet, it is easy to understand the anger of those who weren't admitted to the event, despite having tickets. Why was there not sufficient security provided by the concert promoters (UUAB and the Black Student Union) to control the situation? There are a lot of questions that have to be answered here, and some of them will undoubtedly be asked by University officials already somewhat hostile to student activities. UUAB and BSU should start answering them. - - — , Boycott Cavoges SA officials sanctioned a boycott of Cavages Record Stores at a meeting of the Student Senate last Wednesday. Carl Cavage, also known as the Howard Hughes of the record industry for his refusal to answer to students personally, is presently suing the University over what he sees as unfair competition from the Record Coop. His attempt to obtain a temporary injunction which would have closed the Coop until the case came to court failed last week. As long as Cavage feels so adamant about continuing his relentless attack on the Record Coop, he does not deserve one penny of student business at any of his stores in Buffalo. We ask all members of the University community to boycott Cavages Record Stores so that the unpleasant proceedings that Carl Cavage started cost him more than the price of * Is there a need f6» a state*supported School of Architecture and Environmental Design alt Buffalo? According to the President’s Committee on Academic Planning, there is not. Of course, the Committee is generous enougH\td note that Buffalo has the pnly such School in the''SUNY system. Aside uniqueness, of from this recognition of and of SUNYAB’s School Environmental Design, the Committee has little that is complimentary to say. Somehow this is not surprising considering the errors of fact and the assumptions which are contained in the Committee s recommendation. The errors of fact in the recommendation are numerous. Let us address some of the more obvious. The Committee comments on the critical accreditation review in 1971. It should be noted that soon after that review, the national accrediting committee ceased all review activities in order to re-evaluate its own criteria of accreditation. Also, soon after that review, the founding Dean of SAED resigned. During 1973 and part of 1974 the School functioned under an Acting Dean. It is not surprising that no major change would be initiated until a new Dean was appointed. Since the appointment of that new Dean in 1974, there has been an almost continuous hiring freeze within the University 1 Some important questions • m* *' The system. The Committee also notes that student demand for the programs within SAED has remained at a rather constant, low level. This is contrary to the enrollment figures and our own experience of class size. In the last three years the enrollments within SAED have at least doubled. Even greater growth would have been possible had the faculty been larger and, thus, able to provide adequate education to additional students. The Committee’s report notes in several places that the SAED does not define its mission in traditional ways. In one particular instance the Committee indicates that the proposed expansion is in these “non-traditional” areas. Factually, the vast majority of the proposed expansion is in precisely those areas which might be considered “traditional.” However, it is this very ascription of “traditional” that reveals the Committee’s questionable, and most damaging assumptions. -c School'of Architecture knd Environmental Design does, indeed, define ih mission in terms of and the relationship between the built environment relationship of this impact and the human behavior on the design process. This "is not a "traditional definition of architecture if what is meant by “traditional” is those ideas which were prevalent and * » accepted in the late nlnteenth century. It is likely that if the School were to define its mission in terms of what the Committee seems to think of as “traditional” the School would not long maintiln its creditability with either the profession or the academic community. In fact, if SAED were to so define its mission it would be accused of ignoring the developments over the last 76 years in many fields such as sociology, psychology, urban planning, urban anthropology, geography, civil engineering, mechanical engineering and preventative medicine (to name only a few). The very classification of the School of Architecture and Environmental Design in the PLastic and Performing Arts indicates the magnitude of the Committee’s assumption. It would be hoped 1976 architecture, planning, and that in environmental design would resemble sculpture as much as modern medicine resembles the medicine show or modern chemistry resembles alchemy. Thus, we return to the original question of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning: Is there a need for a state-supported School of Architecture and Environmental Design? As long as such a School can legitimately be classified as a Plastic Art the answer is clearly “NO!”. However, if abo t Architecture and talking we are Environmental Design which address the problems and the needs of our urban areas, of Buffalo and New York City, of Talbott Mall and Pruit Igo, then there is clearly a very high order need for a State and Schoool of Architecture supported Environmental Design, and a strong, innovative one at that!!!

The Hull-Yearley Committee blames the Department for the absence of a permanent chairman without reporting that the Department has no role in setting up search committees. Furthermore, the Department and a previous search committee both agreed on a candidate only to have that candidate vetoed by the The 1976 report furthermore our student-faculty ratio is higher than number of departments including History, Linguistics and Social Work in 1974-1975. The Committee undoubtedly equates student a interest with student demonstrations. Black Studies enrollment is about the same as it has always been; the difference is the lack of clamor, which would occur if students deduced that certainly demonstrations are, in Black Studies, the true sign of interest. They tell us that one-third of our faculty publishes regularly. This requires a many-sided administration. A special kind of double jeopardy is being response but a fraction of it would be to note that played here. The Committee tells us that we did not our faculty has a number of artists who exhibit, give and and write dramatic produce provide information to it, which is patently untrue concerts, in the first place, but this gives them little reason to productions.

This is in response to Stuart Gudowitz’s letter to the editor printed on February 18. Granted, no one in his/her right mind would justify a geography or astronomy professor teaching such fallacies as Mr. Gudowitz mentions. Nor would any rational person equate exact sciences with subjective studies such as philosophy or politics. These subjects don’t have established, indisputable facts, but many views, none of which is the perfect answer for every problem. The reason for the existance of such departments is that there are people interested in these fields. What right do people of Mr. Gudowitz’s dictatorial way of thinking have to hamper studies, of which they don’t even have any comprehension? The appeal for academic freedom is not, as Mr. Gudowitz implies, an appeal for objective truth. It is, rather, an appeal for freedom to educate one’s self in the manner and field which he/she sees fit. Is this a “thoroughly ridiculous notion”? I’m interested to know what these “certain 'o the Editor: 12, the Reporter, On Thursday, February lotorious administrative publication, released the Academic Planning Committee report suggesting to tobert Ketter that certain departments be cut out of ixistence, i.e., Biophysical Science, Tolstoy College, locial Science College, Nursing Faculty, Black Itudies, Puerto Rican Studies.

Thomas Jefferson (one of the founders of our society, Mr. Gudowitz) believed that three things are necessary for people to govern themselves properly: freedom to vote, freedom of the press and education them with the great ideas of the past. Surely Karl Marx was as great a thinker as John Locke and Mao Tse-tung as great as James Madison. People should be exposed to all views so that they can decide which philosophy or political theory they will believe. This is much healthier than blindly following one school of thought for lack of sufficient knowledge of any other. The Bill of Rights guarantees our right to free speech yet Mr. Gudowitz would have the University silence people with whom he disagrees. It seems that the Tolstoy and Social Sciences Colleges aren’t nearly as incompatible with the bases of our society as Mr. Gudowitz is. providing David Molliken No relation To the Editor.

With knowledge comes This is in reply to Stuart Gudowitz and his letter on academic freedom. It is not the teaching of unpopular or radical philosophies, it is the right to a forum on which to examine any idea. It is not the propounding of fallacies as facts or the search for objective truth, facts are objective but truth is relative to man. Academic freedom is responsible. It does not advocate the destruction of property or the encroachment on the rights of others. It does allow the theory of Marx to be discussed. It does allow the attempt of a new and experimental proposal. Academic freedom is the search for truth. It is the presumption that in any circumstance, a truth exists to be found.

I will admit that a person should be judged on merit and that association with a particular group shouldn’t matter. But in 1976 it does indeed matter. So as a fair publication, I hope you will make clear this coincidence and not just ignore it. After all, as the most respected paper on campus, you could very easily make or break a candidate. Your main point was the abolition of two Colleges. From your use of derogatory labels it is evident you have no understanding of them. With knowledge comes understanding. Without knowledge what they represent, you wish to destroy them. Why? Examining new ideas isone of the most important functions of the University. It has been so since universities came into existance. When John Locke and Jean Jacques Rosseau wrote about the dignity of man and equal rights ij went squarely across the grain of those who believed in the divine right of kings. But because they had the forum to present those ideas, Thomas Jefferson was able to write the Declaration of Independence. The chance that some invaluable idea will be brought forth by one of the Colleges must not disappear because of petty politics in the administration.

Mr. Prince tries to picture the fighting as being primarily religious, and attempts to heap the blame on those allegedly perpetual evildoers, the Palestinians. First, to describe the strife in Lebanon in terms of “Christian” and “Muslim” is grossly inadequate. The extreme right-wing Phalange party in Lebanon is composed primarily of Maronites who do not represent all Christians. Orthodox Christians have by and large stayed out of the fighting, and many Christians fought against the Phalange. The civil war took a religious coloring because the Christians are, on the whole, the more privileged economically and politically whereas the Muslims, on the whole, are not. Muslims and Christians did not fight to further the cause of religion, or because of religion, or about To the editor: In the letter column of the \Wednesday, February 18 issue of The Spectrum appeared a letter signed by four people who were, at one time, members of Dr. Charles Mitchell’s English 326M Shakespeare class. They signed their names to a letter condemning Dr. Mitchell for “blatant sexism and teaching incompetency.” I can but marvel at the intelligence, or lack thereof, of anyone who could admit to holding such obviously ridiculous views. The sexist views of the “destructive, low bestial, and vile qualities of women” are not Dr. Mitchell’s personal opinion. He has gone on record in the literature as violently opposing the idolatrizing of Hamlet throughout the Western world. He has compared Coriolanus to Milton’s Satan. Those sexist attitudes are the opinions of the lead characters of the only two plays we had treated in class up to that point Hamlet and Coriolanus. In treating one-sided plays about obsessions, what else can the professor say but what the obsessions are and where, in his opinion, they come from? The four complainers also state that Dr. Mitchell presented this “harangue;: in an “offensive and vulgar manner.” I can understand how certain orthodox Christians might take exception to Dr. Mitchell’s favorite exclamation of disgust, but it is, at worst, profanity. It is certainly not an obscenity. The rest of the class, approximately 24 students, had no difficulty separating Dr. Mitchell’s personal opinions from those of the characters in the plays his constant use of that favorite exclamation of disgust should have been enough for those four as well, if they had been listening, which I doubt, considering that they were usually conducting a private discussion in the farthest corner of the room. The four ex-students state that they believe Dr. Mitchell to be “obsessed” with the “biased, bawdy attitudes in Shakespeare.” Today in class, after having read their letter. Dr. Mitchell asked the class who was obsessed. The consensus of opinion was that the four students were far more obsessed than Dr. Mitchell. We have moved on to King Lear since they left.

The following story, from an article in last month’s New York magazine, is a true account of one such witness and his ensuing alias. “Paul Maris believed that fate, and the government, had given him a chance few men get the opportunity for a new life,’’ said Fred Graham, a law correspondent for CBS. But the Paul Maris story became a real life nightmare. It all started in Congress in 1969, with a massive piece of legislation called the “Organized Crime Control Act.” The bill included nine chapters with controversial provisions to strengthen the inquisitorial powers of grand juries, increase the penalties for habitual offenders, and reduce witnesses’ protection against self incrimination. held a legitimate job in his life. Much to his surprise, he was contacted by the government and asked to testify against two of New Jersey’s most sought-after mafiosi. In return, he would receive probation for his latest criminal offense. The government assured Zelmanowitz that they would supply him and the members of his family with aliases to insure protection against rebuttles by the mafia, who were not likely to forget his name. He agreed to testify and the two mobsters were convicted. — " Faulty alias “Nobody paid much attention to the chapter entitled “Title V: Protected Facilities for Housing Government Witnesses,’’ claimed Graham. “All it did was authorize expenditures of funds to build or rent safe houses where witnesses could be protected by U.S. marshalls until it was safe for them to leave.” ‘Not foolproof It was then the Justice Department’s turn to fulfill its half of the bargain. After rejecting aliases of various backgrounds and lifestyles, Zelmanowitz finally accepted the role of Captain Paul J. Maris, U.S. Army, Retired. He was also given a transcript of his full life’s history. The same was done for the rest of his family. Zelmanowitz was told that the had arranged government background documentation so that if anyone looked behind his story, it would check out. told him “Nobody that the Justice [Zelmanowitz] Department had decided not to provide its relocation witnesses with foolproof backgrounds,” said Graham. “Gerald Zelmanowitz was a ripe subject for the Justice Department’s early experiments in bartering new identities.” At this point in time, the government was issuing 500 aliases each year, or about 1 Vi per day. Most of them went out to hoodlums and gangsters like Zelmanowitz. The bill quickly and quietly became law. Gerald Martin Zelmanowitz, who later took the name Paul Saved company In March of 1970, Paul Maris Maris, was a high school dropout from Brooklyn and a three-time left the east coast for San convicted criminal who had never Francisco with his new identity. After a relatively short period in which Maris couldn’t find a job, he was hired by a shaky businessman named Alvin Du skin, owner of a women’s dress manufacturing business. The company was on the brink of bankruptcy but Maris, who had a good position, worked hard at keeping it alive. He and his father-in-law bought $5000 worth of stock and brought the company out of the red. Maris then persuaded the Creative Capital Corporation to advance Du skin’s company $400,000. Creative Capital soon bought out Alvin Duskin and in January 1972, it created the Paul Maris Company. Maris became a millionaire almost overnight. He was a dynamic, young, intelligent businessman. The shrewdness and cunning he had learned on the streets proved beneficial in the business world. Free with money His only fault may have been that he was a little too loose with the company’s money. So Milton Stewart, an executive of the Creative Capital Corporation, became suspicious of Maris after learning that he loaned $2 million to a former hood with no business experience. Stewart hired Hal a renowned private Lipset, investigator, to check up on Maris’ After much background. searching, they found the truth. Paul Maris was a phony. “Paul Maris’ problems were an exaggerated version of what was happening to some others in the Witness Relocation Program,” said Graham. “Maris was oblivious to it at the time, but he was stumbling on the flaws in the system, which, coupled with flaws within himself, “would eventually strike him down.” Stewart fired Paul Maris, who in return filed suits against Stewart and Upset for $5 million each. This was a great mistake because it spurred the two defendants to further research. Identity revealed At the same time, Maris was trying to buy another clothing company in hopes of competing with the Paul Maris Co. Just when he was ready to dose the deal, his world fell apart. Maris’ attorney refused to represent him after Stewart’s attorney told him of Maris’ real identity. Stewart also said he would soon declare Maris a phony in public. This was the end. Maris had to go into hiding for fear of his life. His alias was shot. His new name SHARE THE RIDE WITH US THIS VACATION AND GET ON TO A GOOD THING.

Bulls hand loss to Fredonia with eye upon championship by Paige Miller Assistant Sports Editor Although the Buffalo women’s basketball team beat Fredonia 61-40 at Clark Hall on Thursday night.

The Spectrum . Monday, 23 February 1976 “Our passing was very sloppy,” Thomas said. “Everybody wants to stand still and get the ball and shoot. We have to move. When we move, we do fine. Defensively, we had no problem.” Indeed, it was the Bulls defense which got them off to an 8—0 start. Guard Clyde O’Malley defense, the Bulls’ sparked stealing the ball three times during the game’s first four minutes leading to a couple of fast-break baskets. “It’s just anticipation being in the right spot at the right time,” O’Malley said. O’Malley finished with eight steals, running her total in 11 games to 64. — Passing problems After Buffalo’s flying start, the offense bogged down and for a while, it looked as if Fredonia would make a game of it. “I tried to take the ball into the center to suck in their zone,” said O’Malley, the Bulls’ quarterback. “But today, they [the Buffalo players] were standing with their player instead of trying to .beat them.” Thomas felt that some of the Bulls offensive problems were due to Buffalo’s new starting line-up, which caused some unfamiliarity between the players. “Marilyn Dellwardt is an excellent player in a zone defense,” Thomas said about Patty Dolan’s replacement in the starting line-up. “I wanted her to get some experience and playing time.” —Kalugin outside shooting, kept the game as close as it was. ‘There were only three minutes in the first half when 1 played decently,” Trapper said, and those weren’t during her scoring spree at the end of the half. Thomas claimed that Trapper was hesitant for fear of fouling out. “When you start to think, you don’t flow and you don’t play well,” Thomas said. Trapper agreed, saying, “All the time I try to be aggressive. They call the fouls on me but don’t reciprocate. I haven’t been in too many games [mentally] and I don’t know why.” Led by O’Malley, Buffalo hurriedly put the game out of reach in the second half. Several times, she stole the ball, raced past most of the Blue Devils’ defenders like they were standing still, and then passed off for a But it didn’t seem to matter what the reason was, since Trapper got hot and scored 16 of Buffalo’s last 23 points in the first half, to give Buffalo a 37—22 lead. “And she’s not playing that well,’’ lay-uri. Thomas commented. Only Trapper.gave most of the credit Fredonia’s Carol Leonard, who for her fine performance to had 11 points with some hot O’Malley. “Clyde’s passes made the difference,” said the Buffalo center. “If she can get the ball to me when I’m open, I usually can score.” “Ann complements my passing,” O’Malley noted. “We well really communicated After Buffalo had a tonight.” comfortable lead, O’Malley took time out from her passing to take 3 few outside shots, and hit them both. “1 feel comfortable with my shot. Some girls have been shooters for a long time so I usually let them shoot, but if I’m open, I expect to get the ball as much as anyone else.” With the decision about whether or not Buffalo will receive a bid to the New York State Division II Championships expected sometime this week, Buffalo takes on Houghton tonight for its final regular season game.

Backpage �w * S «* -* £ SA ELECTION Candidatesstatements President and the second on the relationship of U.S. Foreign Policy to Unemployment. The second goal would be to regain control over the Mandatory Activity Fee, and if that proved impossible, the elimination of that fee. The third would be to try and improve the quality of The Spectrum. The fourth goal, though mainly symbolic, would be the removal of Robert Ketter as President of this University. 2. My reason for running is that I believe a progressive student movement is not only possible, but necessary. For the last year, the present Student Association has, at best, been ineffectual, wasteful and immature; at worst, reactionary and opportunist. I’d like to change that. 3. Qualifications: Pm a senior whose first attendance here dates back to 1967. My political experience also dates back to anti-war activities in that year. It includes President of the U.B. Vets Club 1972, three years in Vietnam Veterans Against the War and Secretary of this year’s club. My journalism experience includes The Spectrum contrib. 1970, co-editor of the Vets Club quarterly. Column Left 1972-3, student John J. Boncek Briefly state your qualifications for the position of President, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coining year. I am running for the position of Student Association President because I am totally fed up with the way the SA is currently being run! Why do I have such a negative attitude? Let’s look at the track record of the current SA administration. Each one of us is paying $67 annually to the SA in order to maintain student activities on campus; that is, the SA collects over $800,000 and can disburse it as they please. How does our SA divide the money? We all remember the “budget-time” circuses of the past few years. Clubs and organizations constantly “stacked” the SA in order to obtain greater A claiming funding. groups, few importance, fought extensively for more and more money even when they had more than their fare share of mandatory fee money! The SA was dominated by a handful of students a small group of students were, in effect, deciding how your money would be spent! Student input was kept at a minimal level. You ask “How does that affect me?” Consider the following figures: It takes over 10000 mandatory fees to run the SA. The entire fee of over 1000 students is channeled directly into 205 Norton Hall and that’s as far as it gets! Close to $10,000 is spent on SASU, with little benefit to the average U.B. student. Many clubs, especially “minority” clubs, are taking far too large a piece of the SA-fee pie. Is this “democracy in action?” What can be done about this waste and —continued on page 2— — — — —continued on paga 2— i Ian Donohue Daniel Schemer I am a member of the Young Socialists. As the only socialist running, I am the only one who sees the situation this University is in in proper perspective. Most importantly, I am the only one who understands how we must fight the cuts we all face. Capitalism today is in a grave crisis. It is the same crisis which led in the 1930’s to depression, fascism and world war., The capitalist class is preparing for the most bitter attacks upon the working class. In the face of this, for students to try to fight as students is absurd and impossible. We must fight as part of the working class which is being pushed into massive struggles for its rights. Public education is indeed a right. It was won in bitter, often bloddy struggles, in which workers even lost their lives so that we could go to school. It is a right we will fight to keep. The Student Association must function in a dual role. It must continue to provide the student services it does now. The SA as representative of the largest body of people at this University must take a lead in righting the budget cuts. The SA must seek to unite with all sections of this University grad students. University professionals, night students, the faculty, social service employees, etc. to form a University Assembly to make all policy decisions affecting this University. Not the administration or some “college council’’ of businessmen. Obviously, its first task would be to stop the budget cuts. A University Assembly, Academic consisting of aH faculty and students would make all decisions on.academic policy. Its. - Briefly state your qualifications for the position of President, the reasons you sre running, snd your goals for the coming year. , 1. My primary goal would be to make this University more relevant to the community and:tax payers that support it. Toward that end, two University-wide discussions or teach-ins should be organized this spring semester; the first on the relationship of Military Spending to —continued on Mae a— Steven Schwartz Briefly state your qualifications for the position of President, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. The office of Student Association President requires two important insights; one must know the workings of student University government and the administration; and yet not lose sight of student feelings. As Director of Student Affairs for the Student Association, I have spent the past year helping students on a one-to-one basis, as well as working on many projects dealing with student rights and problems. I am also the only student member of U.S.’s College Council, which deals with all major policy decisions in this University, thus giving me the valuable experience and knowledge on the many issues facing the students attending U.B. In the past year, I have witnessed the virtual “clamming-up” of Student Association. Decisions affecting students on this campus were made behind closed doors with virtually no student input; positions on issues were decided not by what is best for the students but rather by what is best for SA. My major goal as President will be to open up Student Association. Its focus must be changed so that it represents and not governs students. I hope printing to accomplish these goals by newsletters, and by holding forums, referenda and surveys on all major issues, thereby assuring input and direction from the students on this campus. Do you think the Student Association, as it is presently structured, can ever be a truly representative body which actively —continued on page 2— •" Darid Shapiro Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Prtadent, the reasons you arc running, and your goals for the coming I*". V As the present Director of Academic Affairs. I here spent the past year on promoting student concentrating involvement in the academic decision making process. Before being elected, 1 was an Assemblyman, a member of the •- * t if i ' « «. •A> i Inflation, a, *r t If * v>; > s »’ ..»i- >> > Commuter Council, and Treasurer of the Debate Club. While serving on the Executive Committee this year, I noticed how short sighted and spasmodic Student Association can be. Issues should not be met with on the spur of the moment. We must research the problem, make sure that the responsible bodies have time to deliberate, and plan the SA response. Problems that occurred had a habit of being dealt with by “knee-jerk” reactions. Advocate is running on a platform calling for responsibility and effectiveness for student government. We must not be afraid to negotiate when we have to nor should we shy away from demonstrating massive student support. The main factor is that one must apply reason to the situation and not stumble blindly into any confrontation that can prove to be counterproductive. I also feel that it is time to move away from the denouncing previous rhetoric administrations and instead use this accrued knowledge of the past to temper decisions of the future. Let’s face it, when for example a building is expanded, the intelligent carpenter does not tear down the original structure but adds upon and thus improves the entire structure. Again, —continued on pa>|e 2— Abdul Wahaah Briefly state your qualifications for the position of President, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. my to state Being requested qualifications for President, I would like to remind all of you that, if properly motivated, almost anyone can “qualify” for the Student Association presidency. A sample list of past activities is not necessarily indicative of the abilities needed for successful leadership. What I consider as basic qualifications are often intangible and difficult to define; If questioned along the lines of curreni and prior position* of responsibility, I can cite a record of leadership beginning as student body president of my high school, in Buffalo, I was Chairman of Model Cities Cultural and Educational Program and received a citation from Mayor Makowski for my current achievements in this program. On campus, I am currently on the Board of Directors of Sub Board I, Inc. and the Chairman of the Personnel and Appointments Committee of the same. As a board member of the Black Student Union, 1 have been active in many of the initiated there. the In programs capacities, aforementioned have I experienced the pressures of leadership and feel that I have Cultivated the skills necessary for the formulation and execution of Student Association policy.

Defend your position. How would you make (he SA less bureaucratic? determining actually As for University-wide policy, my initial response would be no. One must take into account that SA is not, and never has been, ultimately responsible for college policy. It is within our power to allocate activity funds, but by decisions such as the hiring and firing of faculty, social and academic rules and regulations and other light important relevant decisions are officially outside of SA’s jurisdiction. The rationale most frequently cited for placing such decisions beyond our immediate reach is that, as students, we lack the foresight and experience necessary for determining the proper methods and fundamental reasons for a university system. This leads us to the respect portion of this question, and it is this respect that must be established before our voices are truly heard. If only a minority of us actively involve ourselves, it can readily be said we don’t respect our own opinions, and can, not so surprisingly, expect a negative response to our demands. I fervently believe that SA can be a representative body, but a prerequisite of this representation is an informal and active constituency. We cannot represent a student body that is uninterested and inactive. How can I, as chief representative of U.B. students, claim to speak for the majority when the majority of students fail to speak for themselves. Once we begin to take stock in our own futures, the respect we most definitely deserve, will most certainly follow as a matter of course. A popular promise nowadays is aimed towards simplifying bureaucracies. An is the popular program equally restructuring of said bureaucracy along lines. supposedly simpler some the Unfortunately, we often poor attribute reasons and causative performance to the more obvious flaws, such as a mind building bureaucracy.

SA’s role should be the active defense Of any and all existing services. 1 am adamant in this respect and will resort to any means to perpetuate and expand student services.

Defend your position. How would you make the SA less bureaucratic? I am not a skeptic of the SA Constitution. In the area of academics,“it has been responsible for the reunion of departmental clubs and the SA, providing inroads for the first time in many cases into departmental decision making. No assembly of any single constituency, though, can hold the claim to determine University-wide policy. Only by a workable of students, faculty, and congress administrators can one ever hope to legitimately set University wide standards. Making SA respected by all groups is a different matter. We lose the respect of faculty and administration by shooting off our mouths when we don’t know what we’re saying; we lose the respect of students when we argue among ourselves and fail to arrive with any concrete gains. To counteract this is not all that impossible be armed with facts and deal effectively with the administration and move away from student infighting.

What is SA’s role in defending those activities? What “homework” should SA be doing now to prepare against possible reduction or elimination of certain services in their present form? SA must be the advocate of maintaining Student services. While remaining in the forefront during this controversy, Student Association must work on a united front with every other organization affected by the administration’s dictates. We must use all resources available, including legal action, to insure the existence of services. Every avenue must be explored such as contacting local legislators, involving parents (remember, they’re taxpayers and consumers too) and using SASU to pressure officials in Albany. We cannot afford to be caught unawares in any possible dilemma.

Defend your position. How would you make the SA less bureaucratic? Yes, but only if the Executive Committee makes the commitment to bring SA back to the students. This year the Senate and the Task Forces were virtually non-existent, thus making the Executive Committee the major policy making body. If this situation is reversed and input and involvement is encouraged, then SA can be a truly representative body. In order to gain the respect of the faculty and administration, the respect of the students must be gained first. This can be done by involving all students in the decision making process. I would make SA less bureaucratic by clearly defining and simply explaining each SA position. This would enable any student to know exactly where to go with problems or complaints. is presently administration The many student services and questioning activities funded with mandatory student fees.

What “homework” should SA be doing now to prepare against possible reduction or elimination of certain services in their present form? Student Association must take an “all or nothing” stand on student services. Any compromise now would be conceding that the administration should have control over our services. To prepare against possible , reduction or elimination of services, SA must work on three areas. The substantiating the first would be a report educational valiie of services.

Services are an important part of the University experience, and are a right of U.B. students, and a right of students across the state. The position of Executive Vice President requires both knowledge of student government and an ability to work with people in large and small groups. My knowledge, of student government and the workings of this University have come from being involved in SA for two years as an Assemblyman and a Senator, and from y present experiences as President of the Inter-Residence Council (IRC). The Executive Vice President serves as Chairperson of the Student Senate and the financial Assembly, as well as being a member of various SA committees. I feel I have gained the necessary experience Ihrough my term as Chairman of the IRC Main Body Council, and as Director of the Residenl Program for the 1975 Summer freshman Orientation, aside from having served on numerous committees in IRC and SA since coming to U.B. I’m running because I am far from satisfied w ith -(he present operations of the SA and University administrations. Both seem to strive on closed-door back-stabbing systems. My major goal is to expose and change these systems, by making students, and not politics, the major priority of SA. Detail the specific steps you would take, and programs you would implement to the Student Senate the most powerful branch of student government. Also, how would you unify the various interests which presently compete for power in the Senate? In order to make the Senate the most powerful branch of student government, it must he shown to the administration and students that it is a truly responsive body. To make this a reality, I propose to start by moving the Senate meetings back to Haas Lounge, where there are no closed doors to keep people out. The next step is input. At present, even if a student should wander into a meeting, he or she must scream for recognition, only to be intimidating, an , by answered microphone-amplified voice. 1 will set up another microphone on the floor, and set aside publicised time on the agenda to air student grievances; answers will come on the spot. Senators will be given equal responsibility in this way for helping people on an individual level; the result is student faith in SA through personal assistance, and proof to the administration that SA solicits input, is responsive and representative of student needs. As for unifying special interests in the Senate, there exist simple solutions. The Senate, as a result of the new constitution, is made.up of fewer,special interest groups. The present* battles arc. the result of conflict, between the Senate and the Executive Committee.

What would i you do? My immediate action, should the University order the closing of any student would be to instruct the services, to continue involved organizations programming, forcing the administration into legal action. If necessary. I would be willing to accept legal responsibility for these instructions. I would attempt to secure a court injunction, and would push harder, through SASU. for pro-student services legislation in Albany (a program I would like to initiate regardless of administration orders). Should the court rule in favor of student servies, 1 would _ Jeff Lessoff Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Executive Vice President, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coining year. As an at-large Senator elected through the dorms, a member of the Finance Committee, Financial Assembly and the Student Activities and Services Task Force, I have become an interested and competent representative. Also, I was elected to the Student Athletic Review Board and was just recently appointed to the Food Service Committee. My main reason for running for Executive Vice President is I know 1 can relate to all the different interest groups in this school. I won’t represent a small minority of students, as being elected at-large, I am responsible to all. 1 want real change in this school. Unless this new administration makes the right decisions, we stand to lose all of our services. We must move ahead, refusing to give ground as our backs are already against the wall. I have five major goals for this administration which stresses democratic changes. There is a definite need for an open, honest administration. The SA must be open to all and no Senator or student should feel alienated because of the cliques that in the past hindered outside people from getting involved. An open democratic administration can’t function if the Executive Committee has access to all information and doesn’t release it. 1 would like to see the referendum for a football team voted on. Then we could move on to more important issues. Establishment of a better rapport with The- Spectrum is a must. There h$s been a running battle between these two powerful groups and it is in our best interest to resolve it. We will not compfohiise dn 6ut student services. I will not sway from this policy. , * Detail the specific steps you would take, and programs you would implement to make the Student Senate the most powerful branch of student government. Also, how would you unify the various interests which 1 presently compete for power in the Senate? The Student Senate can become the most powerful branch of SA only if the Executive Committee decides to work with the Senate. In the past, the Executive Committee has relegated the Senate to a position requiring a rubber stamp of its proposals. Information will never be a problem in administration. Senators should not have to be private eyes in search of information. Senators must have mass backing in elections. Unless people come out of their apathetic shells and vote, the SA will always be accused of being run by a my minority. We must have working Senators. We need doers not talkers. If forced. 1 will play truant officers and make sure Senators come to meetings or resign to allow room for people willing to work. Freeloaders must be purged from SA. We will take surveys to determine student needs and we will follow that guideline. I will institute an SA newsletter all undergrads of the Senate’s work. Students must know who is voting for what issues, if there is going to be between effective communication representatives and constituents. We will have nothing to hide so why not keep everyone informedThe creation of a student complaint bureau is a program much needed here at U.B. A non-partisan U.B. can unify the Senate into a cohesive unit. I have worked for the Better Business Bureau of N.Y. and know of its strength. Assume the administration would not allow UUAB, CAC, and IRC to show any more “popular” movies on campus because of formal complaints from local theatre owners of unfair competition. What would you do? The first action 1 would take is to check the validity of the remarks by the administration. Next I would hear the gripes of the local theatre owners. Then I would go directly to Ketter. He must be made to understand that we are sick and tired of disappearing student services. If he forces us, we will take our case .to court. What are we as students legally entitled to? Every service we have now plus others that haven’t been instituted on this campus. We are paying for these services out of our mandatory fees. What does Ketter represent? He must be made to reflect our needs in his policy decisions, not those of private businesses. If necessary we will boycott and picket!! A NEW SEASON IS DAWNING, U.B., WAKE UP AND BE A PART OF IT informing Sieve Spiegel Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Executive Vice President, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. The qualifications an Executive Vice President should have are knowledge and Association, of Student experience with experience and knowledge . parliamentary procedure and meetings, and ability and experience in working with and coordinating the activities of others. I have two years experience in the ,SA, last year as an Assembly member and this past year as an At-Large Senator which includes being a member of the Activities and Services Task Force and the Financial I have a good working Assembly. knowledge of the Student Association, the and parliamentary SA Constitution, procedure. This past year, I have worked diligently on the Senate Operations and Rules Committee, and the President’s University Wide Commission on Athletics. My background also includes Political Science and Communication courses, which involved both academic and practical experience in American politics, parliamentary procedure and working with and managing others. I’m running because 1 want to make the Student Association a viable force for responding to the needs of students at this University. I’ve been concerned and worked on behalf of students here for two years, and now feel I can better continue doing this as Executive Vice President. My chief goals would be increased effectiveness and responsibility in SA, to open up the lines of communication between SA and students, and to make the SA the advocate for student rights and services. Detail the specific steps you would take, and programs you would implement to make the Student Senate the most powerful branch of student government. Also, how would you unify the various interests which presently compete for power in the Senate? 1 agree that the power of the Student Senate needs to be increased, We must confirm that “The Student Senate shall have the ultimate authority over all the ’ affairs of the Student Association This is not as much a question of the steps I would take as it is one of continuing the line of work I’ve been doing all year. Most of the members of the Operations and Rules Committee and I have put in many hours working on legislation to make the Senate a more powerful branch of the government. In part, it would be through legislation and constitutional amendment, like the above quotation, that 1 would continue to increase the power of the Student Senate. In the Advocate Party platform, three of our specific aims are to: (1) Organize the Senate into a goal-oriented body. (2) More direct involvement for At-Large Senators. (3) Increase the power and autonomy of the Senate in relation to the Executive Committee. Having already explained the third, the first two goals would result in a more efficient and responsible legislative branch, hence a more powerful one. The Senate is part of the legislative branch, in order for it to be productive, we must also have input from the task forces, which serve as our work committees and grass roots level of input. More responsibility and direction should be given to the Senate, especially the At-Large Senators, to help bring this . . about. The interest groups no longer tie up the Senate with budgetary matters, but they are still not contributing useful input. Another aim of the Advocate Party is to review the Activities and Services Task Force and probably revise it to make the task force, and in turn the Senate, more efficient and powerful. This efficiency and power I speak of is not only in relation to the Executive Committee, but is even more important in regard to dealing with the University administration. Assume the administration would not allow UUAB, CAC and IRC to show any more “popular” movies on campus because of formal complaints from local theatre owners of unfair competition. What would you do? First the Executive Committee would hold an emergency meeting to organize our strategy of action. We would get our facts together regarding movies as a student history and their their service, Justifications. I would put SASU to work on the situation as well as soliciting help from the other SUNY centers, and would have the SA lawyer setting up our legal position. The director of public information would be getting the story out to The Spectrum to inform the student body, and to the local newspapers, to inform the the community. Obviously, Buffalo student body would be enraged at this latest example of disregard for student interests, and I would want to put this concern to good use. Immediately petitions would be circulated to show the administration in ap organized manner, the overwhelming student support. 1 would also contact local state legislators to voice their disapproval 19 the administration. Once these initial, actions had been taken, we would<meet with Dr. Ketter. I would remind him : ot the very real f possibility of student. riots, and that neither party would want this to come about. This threat of student violence, in combination with our factual and legal student presentations, overwhelming support, and pressure from local legislators and the local community would bring suffic-ent pressures to bear on Ketter so that he would have to remove his ban on the autonomy of this student service. , Treasurer Carol I. Block Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Treasurer, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. I am, running for re-election because I believe that my expertise, experience and the continuity which these carry are both valuable and necessary for Student Association. A first year Treasurer cannot help but fall into many traps; such as balancing the budget and dealing with irate SA Supplement The Spectrum . Page three . �and deceptive administrators and students. I realize that this past year I have been victim to some of these pitfalls; however, my record is a sound one. During this past year, I have wiped out a $40,000.00 deficit and replaced it with a $20,000.00 surplus. Also, I implemented the first supplemental budget which provided additional spring monies to under-funded previously projects., In addition, my accounting background gave me the knowledge to efficiently supervise the day to day transactions of student activities. My goals for a second term in office are: (1) to fairly appropriate the budget, (2) keep SA soluble and (3) accumulate a larger surplus for unexpected emergencies. Executive Committee policy making? In terms of this year’s budget, where is there a need for reform? I feel that any officer in SA shouldn’t let his position restrain him in any active participation irf policy making. If someone is elected into office and their only concern is her or his position and not the well being of the student government as a whole, they hinder rather than help. 1 also feel that there should be a closer observation on what money is spent and where. Instead of massive cuts, I, think there should be a more equal distribution of funds throughout student clubs and other student run organizations. I don’t feel that funds are being distributed There are clubs and adequately. organizations that need more and are receiving less. This can and will be corrected. It is my abition to involve myself, in greater depth by seeking the position of Treasurer. Only with your support can I make these goals work for you. Vice President for Sub Board Do you think the SA Treasurer should simply carry out the day to day financial responsibilities or take an active role in Executive Committee policy making? In terms of this year’s budget, where is there a otherwise might not be there. Its many divisions exist only for the benefit of we, the students. Whether the divisions efficiently do their jobs and fulfill our needs is the direct concern of each division director and the indirect concern of the Sub Board Directors. Only when a division is not meeting its desired goals should the Directors intervene and then only with great care. The Directors should then discuss, propose and recommend the needed changes to help the specific division meet its goals. An inter-structural Sub Board furor concerning the UUAB Film Committee grew out of the simple problem of whether the its fulfilling committee was responsibilities to show films for the whole student body. It boiled down to the issue of popular vs. art films, how many, and when they should be shown. Whether the action the Directors took was correct depends on your taste in films. Had I been involved, I would have brought all concerned together, discussed the issue in all its facets and reached a workable agreement. My personal feelings are such that in a situation like ours, a varied and full film schedule has to be the order of the day. UUAB exists to bring those people together who have expertise in the various medias to arrange schedules that can be happily tolerated by all. That can be done. With seven nights in a week, the movie schedule can certainly oblige all and I, as Sub Board V.P., will work for that objective. need for reform? This is not an either/or question.

It can be done, but only with much effort and work. It means better services, a vibrant community both academically and socially and a voice in the administration as part of our learning process. I have been involved with many of the controversial issues in the past two years. I didn’t always like the way things were handled and now I’d like to get a - chance to be involved with What steps would you take to familiarize the student body with Sub Board’s functions and operations within the University? In short, how would you dispel the “myth" of Sub Board? As a student becomes more involved with the University, he or she will, only naturally, become more knowledgeable of the workings of its organs. I soon came to see how the student bureaucracies worked, only when I was involved with them. In short, involvement leads to awareness and understanding. In the coming year, it will become increasingly necessary for all students to realize how the services they use on a regular or not so regular basis, evolved, With the administration taking daily incursions into the domain of student services, we must be armed with facts to protect our much needed services. Our consciousnesses must be raised to the point where we know all there is to know about University. our To this end, this Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Treasurer, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coining year. I have completed courses in Marketing. Management, Accounting, Bookkeeping, Economics and Business Administration at Bryant and Stratton Business Institute. I applied my skills in involvement with UUAB and BSU where I am Chairman of Activities Committee. 1 also worked with Minority Student Affairs, along with Wilson in coordinating the Tyrone activities for the past years. I have tried to bring the various elements of student government to students with effective programs. My goal in the upcoming year is to get more student involvement in SA. Also make the student body more aware of what’s happening with the money they have invested in student fees.

This would enable the committee to evaluate and suggest methods of improving the operation and among -the communication systems individual organizations, student body, and Sub Board. If these conditions had existed prior to the UUAB controversy, I believe the problems would not have arisen. What steps would you take to familiarize the student body with Sub Board’s functions and operations within the University? In short, how would you dispel the “myth” of Sub Board? has Sub Board made itself a element comprehensible of student via a constant flow of government information. It is the Board’s responsibility to explain itself to the students in articles, accessible easily newsletters and publications. Tours of the already existing facilities should be provided to all students when they begin school at U.B. and on demand. Surveys and student referendums on priorities would give Sub Board representatives a clearer idea of who and what they stand for. But these are only first steps that must be taken. It is the attitude and approach of Sub Board that must be synchronized to the needs of the student population. the actual My desire and competence will only be seen in the daily affairs of the Sub Board office. I have stepped forward hoping to achieve objectives and only in election to the position of V.P. for Sub Board can I effectively accomplish them. The overall goal is to maintain the viability of the student services our predecessors worked for. These services must be maintained against the coming advances of the administration. The idea that it is educational, cultural, recreational and social to provide services for ourselves to make our University years easier and more comfortable, must be accepted. The other big goal is to make the student more responsive and bureaucracy comprehensible to us. The governments and their offices must be geared to work for the well being of their constituents. Once this is done, student government will be succeeding. Under what circumstances, if any, do you feel the Sub Board Directors should dictate the internal policy of one of Sub Board’s divisions?

These should exist for the social, recreational or “educational, cultural value,” as stated by the SUNY Board of Trustees’ guidelines. I believe the campus administration has misinterpreted and at times violated these guidelines. I believe students have a right to provide their own social services such as health care, movies, concerts and publications, which are all justified by their social as well as educational value. Our interests must be the fully and clearly accepted by administration and we cannot allow the commercial community interests to subvert • the real issues. r4 . -- Kathy Venezia Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Vice President for Sub Board, the reasons you are running, and your goals Judy Sack Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Vice President for Sub Boards the reasons you are running and your goals for the coming year. This year I actively participated in student government as an off-campus, at-large Senator and as a member of the Senate. 1 served as a representative to the financial priorities committee. By regularly attending board meetings of Sub Board I, Inc., I have developed a workable understanding of its operations. From my and experience, concern with the successful operation of student-funded. University-wide projects, 1 have decided to run for the office of Vice President of Sub Board I, Inc. I see the primary goal for Sub Board as taking a leading role in protecting the rights of student-funded, student-run for the coming year. 1 feel that the office of Vice President for Sub Board should be held by an individual who is sensitive to the needs of students as well the programs of Sub Board. My background has much todo with counseling and the like, but my interests Mve expanded have been involved with the Commuter Affairs Committee and the Human Sexuality Center. Having worked as coordinator of activities on the Commuter Affairs Committee, I learned much about the structure and dynamics of SA. The Human Sexuality Center gave me much exposure to Sub Board and its structures and dynamics. As Co-Director of the Human Sexuality Center, it was important 'to me to accommodate the needs of our clientele, our counselors and to maintain an open and direct with the relationship administration. In an effort to continue with a personal approach, I would like to increase student involvement with Sub Board by opening the communication lines between Sub Board and the students. It is �important for more minority and foreign students to be reached and to be involved so that Sub Board is appealing to a larger and more diverse population. I also feel that it is necessary to strengthen the services of Sub Board through contacts and resources in the community. The ideas of others who have expertise in an area such as health care might strengthen the services on both campuses. Living at BUicott, I have seen how much the expansion and strengthening of services is especially needed there. < Working with the Center has given me much insight (o Sub Board and the needs of students. I have seen how effectiveness as an administrator can really affect a program. In seeking this position on Sub Board, I hope to accomplish this same kind of effectiveness in all of Sub Board’s programs so that students may utilize the services available to them as much as possible. Under what circumstances, if any, do you feel the Sub Board Directors should dictate the internal policy of one of Sub Board’s divisions? Comment on the recent UUAB Film Committee controversy. The internal policies of Sub Board’s divisions should be decided by each division director and the Sub Board Directors. Through working directly with the division directors, the guidelines for each programvbecome more dear and distinct. Consequently, the direction and thrust would be more decided by Sub Board’s divisions, rather than by Sub Board itself. It is important to keep in mind that Sub Board is a corporation designed for students and is student run. In the case of the UUAB Film Committee controversy, the redefinition of the policies of Sub Board was needed so that there would be no question as to what was in the guidelines and what was not. Had the guidelines been more clear-cut, perhaps the Film Committee might have had more power to control the situation it was faced with and Sub Board less power to manipulate it. What steps would you take to famiiarize the student body with Sub Board’s functions and operations within the University? In short, how would you dispel the “myth” of Sub Board? Initially, students must be made aware of Sub Board and its functions through more coverage of Sub Board’s policies through The Spectrum. This would give students more of a chance to see how their monies are utilized. Not just in the context of controversial issues, but rather in terms of every day functions, as well as current news about programs that hold special interests which may not necessarily be popular. In addition to this, perhaps through University Press, I think a leaflet should be distributed to students once a semester breaking down the functions and structure of Sub Board to explain who is funded by Sub Board and how that funding is gone about. This would also give more exposure to programs that receive little publicity throughout the year. Lastly, I think the distribution of surveys should be a part of each program of Sub Board to determine the needs of students from the students themselves. Through the students’ feedback Sub Board’s programs may better respond to the growing needs of the student population. Director of Academic Affairs the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. This past year, as the sole representative of the Academic Affairs Task Force to the Executive Committee of Student Association (SA), 1 have seen a complete disregard for student input in SA decisions. Neither the students nor the student press are informed of the issues which affect their education. As President of the Engineering Student Government (FEAS), I have seen little to no regard for the academic clubs of this University in the budgetary or policy making acitivities of SA; although the academic clubs have the most potential for input in academic decisions on a departmental level. Through my experiences of sitting on University-wide Faculty-Senate and have learned that I committees, information should, flow to the students while the committees are in progress, and not that the students first leam about the committee in its final report. I am running to change the student view of the Office of Academic Affairs. Academics must not remain an issue handled by just one or two SA officers all students must have a say! An important goal I wish to accomplish in the coming year is to improve and put into effect the proposed “Academic Bill of Rights.” This, perhaps the most important piece of paper that affects students, has been so torn apart by the Faculty-Senate that its purpose has changed to protecting the privileges of faculty from its original goal of protecting the rights of students. This document must resume its original purpose and be enacted in order to give students the rights they deserve in academics. In order to implement this and other academic goals, it is necessary: (1) to strengthen the Academic Affairs Task Force (consisting of student representatives from all departments); (2) to increase student participation on all levels of the by-laws allow Faculty-Senate (whose student representation on all committees); and (3) to demand that a higher priority be given to the undergraduate program at U.B. How would you assess the recently of the President’s released report Committee on Academic Planning? How essential do you feel are educational innovations such as pass-fail grading, the Colleges, independent study, and a near absence of University-wide requirements? What would be your course of action if such features of the University were threatened from within? The Interim Report of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning was an assessment of all academic programs in this University. I was pleased to see that long overdue increases in library and computer resources were recommended. Although the committee on the wholerecommended maintaining the Collegiate program, I felt it out of bounds when it stepped recommended a phasing out of Tolstoy College (College F) and Social Sciences College while admitting that insufficient evidence was available to make a programs were judgement. Many recommended to combine with others which were closely related; with the effect that all programs would be strengthened through stable leadership and direction and the addition of valuable resources, while reducing faculty lines (i.e., Black Studies, Puerto Rican Studies, etc.). A sore spot of the report was the recommendation to phase out the School of Architecture and Environmental Design. A program unique in the SUNY system to U.B., it should have Educational innovations, which are usually the first programs attached, must be maintained. The pass-fail option must always be available. The Colleges must offer programs not usually found, but often important in a University setting. Independent study (the basic tenet of the four course load) has to be~defended on the premise that “all education is not in the classroom.” A near absence of University-wide requirements is essential to allow students the chance to take the course of instruction which is best for them and a three tier advisement system where there is a general advisor for incoming freshmen, a faculty advisor as the student’s discipline is developed, and a departmental advisor when the student - Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Director of Academic Affairs, . . be taken pass-fail per semester, is punishing the entire student populace for the failure of the program’s original purpose. The decision to allocate the pass-fail option must be left to each individual department to decide upon. Furthermore, the student should own the choice of when he wishes to use pass-fail and not be limited to when and how. The Colleges, as noted earlier, must maintain their freedom. Presently independent study is under no direct threat. The absence of University-wide requirements is responsive to the individual academic growth; a rigid, well-designed and open to program, structured undergraduates on an optional basis could, however, prove beneficial. If such policies were threatened, it would be our position to advocate student opposition and right to keep these rights for the student body. I think a big plus in in getting students involved and strengthening SA would be to see the Academic Affairs Task Force assert its influence in University decisions. I would push for the academic clubs to pressure both their individual departments along with their constituents to respond in opposition. The most important factor is to prevent such acts before they take place. > — been given the necessary increases to reach a level of accreditation. William Finkelstein decides upon a specific degree program, should be implemented in conjunction with this. If such features were threatened from within (as they have been on several occasions), my first reaction would be to inform aU students of the situation . my only power being that which comes from student support and input. Hopefully, the students would already have known of the situation by information regularly supplied to them in SA newsletters. After all, forewarned is forearmed! Then I, with an active role being played by the Task Force, would take a stand through the channels available to us in the Faculty-Senate and administration. I feel that if we go in with the attitude of full student support and full student knowledge of what is happening, the administration cannot refuse us. After all, students are what this University is all about!

My qualifications include: member and Senator of the Academic Affairs Task Force, director of its Budget and Activities Committee, member of the Senate’s Rules and Operations Committee, and president of UB/AFS. I’m running to insure the quality of academics in this University, especially now when it is being threatened by SUNY cutbacks as well as this administration. I would attempt to expand both SCATE and the student handbook, to increase student awareness of departmental and University academic policies, and to open SA’s role in academics to everyone, giving students the chance to become actively involved in this University’s operations. How would you assess the recently report of the President’s released Committee on Academic Planning? How essential do you feel are educational innovations such as pass-fail grading, the Colleges, independent study, and a near absence of University-wide requirements? What would be your course of action if such features of the University were threatened from within? Overall I think the committee’s report was fairly representative of present student needs and desires, although it would be wise to note that the report is just a ‘report,’ and doesn’t necessarily mean that the policy suggested will be carried out. The report seems rather vague in addressing future student needs when it states, “In applying the criteria of quality, need and promise, the Committee was sensitive to institutional needs to respond to societal In pressures, system wide interactions . other words, by basing future University policy on what degrees are more prone to employment, the University is risking general academic excellence for the cause of certain job opportunities. We must not allow for the institutionalization of our education. We must advocate “we,” the . students’ right to become what we want to be; to graduate in the field we personally deem important. The committee showed signs toward this shift in policy with the recommendation to abolish both Tolstoy and Social Sciences Colleges, two schools devoted to radical thought and change. It is up to SA to work with the Colleges to clarify student demands to keep these Colleges and what they represent. I believe that such educational innovations as listed are extremely important to the intellectual freedom of the student. These options must be available to enhance and insure academic growth.

Many students utilize the clubs, but to expand and improve these clubs, the Student Association must improve its support of these clubs.

Better person to person contact would aid the students. I for one will promote and direct my abilities for the students.

How essential do you feel are educational innovations such as pass-fad grading, the Colleges, independent study, and a near absence of University-wide requirements? What would be your course of action if such features of the University were threatened from within? The recently released interim report of the President’s Committe on Academic Planning recommends and advises the planning of academic policies. In this report, the committee unanimously agrees that the Social Science College and Tolstoy College be abolished. They also agree that the Black Studies program and Puerto Rican studies be phased out. The committee also “found significant no academic interaction with intercollegiate and hence makes athletics, no recommendation on this activity.” I strongly object to these recommendations. Strongly diversified fields of class offerings are needed to make this University function. Without intercollegiate athletics and without minority studies programs you are limiting the selection of courses. What happened to “Let each become all s/he is capable of being?” 1 feel the option of pass-fail grading should still be kept. College independence should still remain, independent studies should be continued. I support the four course load for all undergraduates. Each department should schedule their own required courses.

We will sponsor gatherings so dorm students get to know commuters, and so commuters can meet other commuters as well. Director of Student Activities and Services Council. Andrea Gabelman Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Director of Student Affairs, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. The position of Director of Student Affairs requires a person who can get along with people, and use her resources to solve complicated problems. I feel that I have much experience to help me in these tasks: experience which began while serving on the Town of Ramapo Department of Parks and Recreation Advisory Board. This group makes major policy decisions for the town. . Here 1 learned about government in action, and saw how government policy is formulated. As a student at U.B., I have worked with IRC, and have become acquainted with the overall problems of dorm residents; the attitudes of the administration. As a dorm resident, 1 see these problems first hand. Through my work as Legal and Welfare Coordinator for CAC, I learned to organize volunteers and direct their activities in the City of Buffalo. Science forming the Political In Undergraduate Association, I became familiar with SA and the Student Senate. As this club’s President I have acquainted myself with administrational procedure and have attempted to plan events of student interest. I think these qualities will help me serve you as Director of Student Affairs. The major reason that I am running for SA is that I am not pleased with the way the present 'administration has handled problems on campus. SA should take a more vigorous stand in regard to administration encroachments on their powers, and should have more internal strength.

I feel that we should involve SA more in solving dorm problems by revamping the illegal Housing contract and by fighting for students charged outrageously for furniture and windows they didn’t break. FSA should improve its services to students; I plan to have a strong student committee working on this. Student off-campus housing should be protected from further restrictions by local governments. I plan to work to establish tickets, with an parking University on-campus appeals board. For commuter students, I am in favor of increased funding to the Commuter Council, including retaining the reduced bus fare program and setting up lockers in designated academic buildings.

Dennis Black Lee Scott Perres Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Director of Student Affairs, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. The most important qualification for Director of Student Affairs is dedication and the desire to defend students’ rights at all costs. Experience in SA is not a prerequisite for caring. Caring is important. I care and I work hard, and I have ideas that can make SA stronger, more viable organization on campus. I am tired of the students of U.B. being treated as an unwanted entity. We all seem to do a lot of complaining, but few of us decide to devote the energy to the job. I want to use my energy for our rights. Someone has to want to stick up for us and 1 want to be the one to do it. As Director of Student Affairs, I will institute a free legal service program so students can have free legal aid. I am going to continue the fight for a fair housing contract and improve the busing situation so we can get the most for our money. I will hold the Student Affairs Task Force meetings in Haas Lounge, so we can be easily accessible to students. I will improve the summer orientation program so freshmen will not feel out of, place or worried when they get here, and will structure fall orientation so incoming students will feel a part of U.Bj I am going to oppose any plan for mandatory meal plan, at this University.

The ability to work with various groups and individuals is a key factor in making the office of Activities and Services a successful one. The position requires close contact with a wide variety of campus organizations besides the capacity to deal with the University administration on many important questions. Due to my record of interests and activities, both on and off campus, 1 feel that I could the deal for accomplish a great undergraduate students at U.B. As a member of the Student Affairs Task Force, the SA Senate and the FSA Bookstore Advisory Board, I have become both knowledgeable and involved in important campus issues. My activity in suburban politics and my membership on the bpard of directors of a local high school hgve given me an opportunity to dftajl with a variety of people and hundreds of problems, a situation not unlike that faced by the Director of Activities and Services. I am running for this office because of my interest in attaining certain goals, and a sincere belief that I have the proper balance between youthful enthusiasm and level-headed maturity to impleprei# them for the benefit of all. Three main themes would accompany my term in office. The first would be to maintain and improve existing services with a sense of both fiscal and legal responsibility. Services are an University of the important part community and must be protected. A second plan would be to expand both the membership and scope of activities of the various campus clubs. More student involvement in club activities would increase their role in the University system and lead to a more informed and involved student body. More daytime activities by the various campus organizations would be my third goal. During the day, more people are available to participate and a reasonable amount of activities should be accessible to them. How do you rate the importance of intercollegiate and intramural athletics relative to other student activities? How would you view your role in Amherst Campus planning? fie specific. Intercollegiate and intramural athletics are an important part of any university and competition Athletic campus. recreational intramurals provide the University community an opportunity for both spectator and personal involvement. What must be remembered, however, is that this is a University of over 14,000 undergraduates and that their Student Association is responsible for afl of their interests. With this in mind, a balance between athletics and all the other SA funded activities and organizations must be maintained. To commit too much to one interest and neglect the rest would be a �gross violation of student trust. Therefore, it is in the interest of all of us to maintain our athletic programs, but keep them in the proper relationship with the needs of the entire University community. Without question, student involvement in the planning of the Amherst Campus should be an active one. Two areas that point up the need for this type of student interest and pressure are the plans for the Physical Education plant and “Parcel B” lituation. In both cases, student interests in their own school must be protected by the students themselves. The Director of Activities and Services must coordinate itudent drives to protect the size of their )wn fieldhouse and to insure that student interests are protected in the planning of the commercial plaza planned for the Amherst Campus. These are just two examples of the necessary services that must come from the Activities Office. Long after we are gone, undergraduate students will be living and learning on a campus taking shape today. The most important thing that we can leave behind for them would be a properly planned facility, complete with all the needed services and activities. recreational activities, including concerts, beer blasts, and films.

Most of the plans were drawn in the 1960’s and they are outdated. I plan to fight for such a board with student representation to review and alter existing plans. I see jnyself in the best position to represent the undergrads, with my task force and the Executive Committee there to help me formulate a stand that is in the students’ best interests. Two things we must fight for in relation to this are: (1) keeping costs down in the proposed shopping mall so student-run co-ops will be able to operate there, and (2) having no leases signed with incoming merchants without provisions mandating student employees. intercollegiate football. We must have a varied program of activities that will meet the needs of many, not just supporting a few. The Amherst Campus must be made ready for the gradual move of facilities from the Main Street Campus. I would like to see an increased amount of needed services brought to the Amherst Campus in order to meet the present and future demand. The' inferior level of health care on the Amherst Campus is a dangerous situation which must be improved. Check cashing and post office services must be expanded. A ticket office should be provided for the students of the North Campus. We must make sure that students have a say in how the Parcel B commercial center is run so that we don’t get taken of because a bunch of advantage businessmen would like to make a profit from a captive consumer market. Bup service, of course, must be improved so that all students can arrive at class on time and in one piece. Long range plans must now be made in order to insure office space for student services and clubs, and for the provision of space for moire student activities, such as decent gym facilities. — How do you rate the importance of intercollegiate and intramural athletics relative to other student activities?

As a member of the Student Activities and Services Task Force, 1 worked on the Amherst Campus-Parcel B and legal services committees. I have also been active in the Jewish Student Union as both their Treasurer and North Campus coordinator, thus giving me a firm knowledge of the internal workings and problems of the student clubs. Furthermore, I am a member of the Student Senate and Financial Priorities Committee, which is measuring the students’ desires on how their mandatory activities fees should be spent. How do you rate the importance of, intercollegiate and intramural athletics relative to other student activities? How would you view your role in Amherst Campus planning? Be specific. We need a balance, based on student desires, between athletic events and other student activities. For example, I am against bringing intercollegiate back football because it would eliminate other athletic activities in order for the limited athletic budget to meet the high — Lynn Bittner Briefly state your qualifications for the position of SASU Delegate, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. I am very interested in campus issues and as a result of this, I have become active in a variety Of organizations. This year, I am a Student Senator from the Student Affairs Task Force. I’m also on the Finance Committee and the Financial Assembly. As chairwoman of the Financial Priorities Committee,’ I have the responsibility of finding dut what the students’ priorities are how tttey want their money spent. During NYPIRG’s voter registration drive, I organized the drive on the North Campus. I was a leader at U.B. of SASU’s save SUNY/NY campaign where I coordinated the letter writing campaign and the lobby in Washington. I would like to use these talents and experiences to make sure U.B. is fully represented in SASU as well as making SASU a viable organization and responsive to student needs. My goals as SASU delegate are; (1) Organize letter writing campaigs as well as lobby in Albany to make sure tuition and dorm rents are not increased. (2) Insure that the Third' World Caucus becomes a reality, so that all students are represented in SASU. (3) Publicize SASU’s services and - I am tunning because I would like to. help change SA into'an organization run by and for a greater number of students, unlike the present system. I feel that I can help the students maintain contntt of their own money from mandatory activities fees that we all pay. I also see a need to make the Student Activities Task Force more responsive to the needs of the service and club organizations of this school. In short, I give a damn about the welfare of the student body. ■ f A high priority is to make SA more responsive to the needs of the students. I’d like to see SA plan for long-range goals, as well as maintaining the needed amount of short-range projects. We must improve the internal workings of SA so that more beneficial things for the students can come from it. We’ve waited long enough for a truly representative student government and I don’t see any reason to wait longer. I believe that if we build up the effectiveness and responsiveness of the various student representative bodies to the needs of the people they represent, then superior results will naturally follow. The formula is simple; better input creates better output. costs of My goals as SASU delegate are: (1) To change the SASU/SUNYAB relationship SASU doesn’t give out enough information to students and has little student input. As a result, the past delegates tend to ’ provide information to the students. (4) students’ complete control over mandatory student fees. (5) Fight to maintain student services on SUNY campuses. (6) Push for laws to allow students to vote in their college communities. (7) Get the SUNY schools that have dropped out of SASU to rejoin. (8) Work to make financial aid programs broader and more equitable. Gain our Justify Student Association’s membership in SASU in light of recent withdrawals by other SUNY units. Although there are problems in SASU now, they can be solved by current SASU schools working with those schools that have dissolved their membership on common issues such as the fight against tuition increases. At this point, the sore spot concerning the Third World Caucus should be of secondary importance. SASU is still a viable organization. As students, we must relv on our numbers to themselves rather than the students. (2) Emphasize and expand the SASU services program and fight to maintain individual campus services, mainly our own. (3) Insure an adequate budget to prevent tuition and room rent hikes and cutbacks in departments and programs. (4) Oppose any administrative represent control over our mandatory student fees. (S) Protect financial aid programs. (6) Complete the SASU membership by bringing back all the SUNY schools..<(7), Providing for a Third World Caucus. (8) ■ Increase SASU’s alliance with other state and national organizations. Justify our Student Association’s membership in SASU in light of recent ** withdrawals by other SUNY units. SASU is the only way that students can make their voices heard without violence. is important because the present administration is afraid of a violent return to the 1960’s, and consequently afraid of students. Now is the time we have to stand together, and stand by SASU. Recently schools have been dropping out of SASU over an internal problem; the establishment of a Third World Caucus. To correct this; the schools must be individually spoken to and reassured that new leadership with different ideas will be elected in June. It’s important to view SASU in light of its accomplishments; the greater good of a state SA, a student voice in the SUNY of services, SASU’s administration, and lobbying, information, life-line communication with other schools rather than this problem. We, as well as other schools, should realize this.

Recent withdrawals from SASU have apparently been acts of opposition to the leadership rather than an attack on the itself. Those that left organization assumingly decided it was easier to quit than to assume responsible roles of leadership in helping to give SASU the direction that it so desperately needs. Member schools, including this one, must give the SASU staff the directions, and not the reverse. From a S67 activities fee, $.85 goes to SASU. Last year, SASU helped prevent possible increases of $100 in dorm rent. Not a bad investment, especially if one takes advantage of the various buying cooperatives and further savings. Any fight we can hope to have for preventing new tuition and dorm hikes, establishing student controls over our mandatory fees and the services they provide, etc. must be waged in Albany, in the State Legislature and on the Board of Trustees by a unified, strong organization of students. SASU is one of the few student-lobbying-for-students groups in the country that have begun to realize but an increment of their potential.'

Public support for our legislative programs would be an invaluable asset to the passage of student-benefiting bills. A series of student visits to community organizations would be vital towards achieving this end. A SASU planning committee could be implemented to help bring SASU benefits to campus. It could also be instrumental in directing delegates as to what specific programs to seek in Albany with direct SUNYAB benefit as the goal. SASU delegate SASU work for the students.

I believe SASU can be both in the services it provides to thestudents and in its own organization. First, SASU programs provide many benefits k> students which they now know nothing about. These programs, such as trave discounts, student insurance, and purchase power, should be made better known to the University community. Secondly, SASU’s full potential as a student lobbying or8.nte.tlon to bnen by no m..n, achieved. I feel two problems of special importance should be attacked more one, the strongly on a state-wide basis budget cuts SUNY has had to suffer, with \ special emphasis on cuts in athletic programs and cbaches’salaries, and, two, the raises in tuition students face the coming semester. The SUNY system has had to bear too great a share of this state’s economic burden.

SASU has suffered much criticism of SUNY schools have Several late. abandoned it, claiming it is ineffective as a student representative in Albany. 1 do not agree. Students must have some voice in the state-wide decision and policy making level. Without SASU they have none. SASU is the strongest, most important SUNY the advocate in student administration, the State Legislature, and Governor Carey’s office. It is true that SASU has not been highly successful in affecting SUNY policy, but that is not to say that it cannot or will not be. One of SASU’s major problems has been the incompetence and lack of interest of many of its delegates. SASU needs only a combination of good leadership, interested delegates, and proper organization to achieve its potential I want to be one of those “interested delegates.” I think SASU can be made to work. Juan Gonzales Briefly state your qualifications for the position of SASU Delegate, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. My qualifications for position as a SASU delegate is that in the period I have been present at this University, I have been » involved with many students, clubs, and organizations that have been committed to the further development of minority students. I have also played an important role in the implementation of programs that have been beneficial to a variety of needing students. In addition, I have been involved in community organizations, with the prime objective of the development of resources that will be of interest to a growing community, and of high school students and organizations both in the Buffalo and New York City areas. My goals for the coming year and my ambitions for running for SASU is to stretch communications between colleges in the SUNY system and transfer these ideas to the lobbyist in Albany so that a student voice can be loud and clear in the issues that affect all students in the SUNY p*»«# of: an optiobTor to vote » pa P the campus union and a ’ full tun to t0 pick up the .state t coirtirutfllhnt by me funding of intercollegiate athletics, Pr _ J?r|° . . hetwee h - . * / Student . ®ur •--**«>. membership to « withdrewaU by other Association’sa AaaocmUon bUNY uimts. £J, t'JtZ | P i n ion SUNY campuses have in my op withdrawn ass rather because because of pure pure, base students, hut but rather, "»! the j.m.s o poM.cn The»» parliamentary procedure, instead, we must ask. what is SASU doing for the 150,000 SUNY students. Although it has not reached its potential, SASU has accomplished enough in the past to justify our continued involvement. Surely, the post-card voter registration law, the placement of students on the College Council and the Board of Trustees, and the prevention last year of a room rent hike are examples of positive action by SASU. However, SASU has also failed on several counts, the chief of these being its inability to inform students programs. Also, SASU has not found the time to work on those problems which mainly affect the individual campus. These shortcomings only touch the tip of the »Mj ® « « » iceberg.

My justification for Student Association membership in SASU is to be able to communicate and relate student information and experiences to the administration and University population.

GSEU representatives said that this raise would be insignificant for many, and that what is needed is a raise in the minimum assistantship salary. by Steven Milligram Spectrum Staff Writer President Robert Ketter met with three representatives of the Graduate Students Employees Union (GSEU) Wednesday afternoon in Hayes Hall and expressed sympathy with GSEU concerns, but said there was little he could do.

Senate resolution Boycott of Cavages called for by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor A boycott of Cavages record stores was called by the Senate Wednesday. The boycott will be supervized by a committee of seven members. Four Senators and three members of the Coalition for Student Services will be appointed by Student Association (SA) president Michele Smith. Cavages is suing the University over what it claims is unfair competition from the Record Coop. An attempt by Cavages to a temporary injunction which would have closed the Coop until the case comes to court failed last week. The resolution was sponsored by Jeff Lessoff, Pat Lovejoy, Andrea Gabelman and Abdullah Wahaab. The Senate defeated a provision in the resolution which called for Cavages stores to be picketed, largely out of fear that this would prejudice the court against the University. Student Fighting the suit? SA is trying to enter the case as a defendant with the University. Student Affairs Director Steve Schwartz charged that administration officials know if they lose the case they will be forced to close down other student services and therefore “we don’t know if they’re fighting as hard as they should.” For example, he claimed that the University’s attorney had been totally unprepared when Schwartz saw him in court and “hadn’t even read the papers.” Schwartz told the Senate that SA’s lawyer, Richard Lippes, advised him that although a boycott was legal, he wasn’t sure about a picket. Even if it is, Schwartz said, Lippes feared it would prejudice the judge. Lesoff said the Senate has been supporting a “silent boycott” of Cavages for some time, and felt the picket would add strength to the student protest. When several Senators spoke against the motion, one of its supporters declared, “This is just another example of the Senate doing nothing and passing lukewarm measures.” Good organizers An amendment to give the Coalition for Student Services complete control of the boycott was defeated. Senator David Brownstein, who proposed the amendment, said the Senate would be spared the time and trouble of setting up a committee of its own if this was done, and added that the Coalition is made up of many Community Action Corps (CAC) and New York Public Interest Group (NYPIRG) members “who are good organizers.” However, Senator Mike Jones remarked that “the last time CAC and NYPIRG organized something we had a small thing called the Attica riot,” referring to incidents last year downtown and in Hayes Hall, where students were arrested. In other business, the report on the Job Description Committee was presented by Committee Chairperson Bill Finkelstein, who asserted that he is the only active member, and that he had not received due cooperation from the people he has tried to interview. Hayes or Norton? He concluded that if they were too apathetic to keep their appointment with him to discuss their positions, “they’re just in it for the money.” Finkelstein admitted that his efforts had been hampered by his lack of help, and told the Senate that the committee should be attempted again next year. Michele Smith A resolution condemning the Academic Planning Committee for “apparently arbitrarily” recommending the closing and phasing-out of some colleges and department; was presented by Senator Rob Cohen. The resolutior called in part for the Academic Affairs Task Force tc study the document and prepare a position paper tc present to the administration: This was approved. The Senate declined to condemn the committee, however. Finkelstein objected to the condemnation because he felt most of the Senators had not read the document and didn’t know what they were voting on. Cohen, however, became incensed and left the meeting after the motion failed. “Is this Hayes Hall or Norton, that’s what 1 want tc know,” he said. “The Colleges are being attacked and you people won’t stick up for them.” �Study puts pot behind alcohol and tobacco .1 *. V by Mike McGuire Campus Editor Supporters of marijuana decriminalization in this area received some unexpected approval of their position this past Saturday when the Buffalo Evening News called editorially for decriminalizationof the substance. The News has published a number of editorials against drug use in general and against legalization of marijuana, and recently ran a poll in which decriminalization was opposed by a 3>1 margin. The News editorial cited decriminalization as a “reasonable and immediate step to alleviate the counterproductive and socially alienating effects of criminal enforcement” of marijuana laws. The News insisted, however, that too little was known about marijuana’s effects to allow the “wide-open social encouragement” they felt legalization would entail. The editorial followed .by several days the report of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), which concluded that marijuana ranks third behind alcohol and tobacco as a top national health hazard. The report concluded that 53% of Americans aged eighteen to twenty-five and 8 % ofallU.S. college students had tried marijuana. - Pot studies poor The N1DA report opined that marijuana use has become the norm among young people during the past seven years. Also, said NIDA, use of the drug now has no apparent connection to social class, whereas it was once more prevalent among lower socioeconomic groups. NIDA criticized many reports on marijuana use for allegedly shoddy research methods. The agency scoffed at one study, done of inmates in a mental asylum, which attempted to correlate marijuana use with inmates’ mental conditions. NIDA noted wryly that according to that study, dancing or beer drinking are statistically more likely to cause later insanity than is marijuana smoking. The NIDA report, however, said that marijuana still can’t be given “a clean bill of health.” They cited hazards caused by driving after smoking marijuana, especially when some alcohol has also been consumed. The report said, however, that a simple roadside test may soon be developed to check for marijuana intoxication, similar to the one now used to check drivers for drunkenness. Medical uses The report said that recent research has proven marijuana medically useful in reducing fluid pressure in the eyes of glaucoma victims, in easing nausea in cancer patients taking chemotherapy, and in dilating lung passages in asthmatics. NIDA, however, said recent findings indicate marijuana use is not advisable for those with heart disease, since it increases the heart rate, and since chronic use may impair heart functioning. NICA went on to say that there is no evidence that marijuana smoking causes genetic damage, stunts growth, interferes with male sexual fertility, or affects resistance to diseases. Local debate over decriminalization will come to a head with a debate between Erie County Sheriff Michael A. Amico and Frank Fioramonte, state coordinator for the National Organization for Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), currently set for March 11 at Buffalo State College. Amico has been a vigorous proponent of enforcing drug laws, but recently has admitted current state marijuana laws may be overly harsh. Rich Foxton, co-coordinator of local decriminalization efforts for the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYP1RG), said that NYPIRG’s campaign for decriminalization is just getting under way, but has already made some headway. He says- his organization has uncovered much “closet” support for decriminalization among Western New Yorkers, including even policemen who keep their opinions secret from their superiors. 1973, and Marijuana was decriminalized in Oregon in decriminalization measures became law last year in California, Colorado, Ohio, Maine and Alaska. .Governor Carey called for decriminalization in New York this year in his annual State of the State message, and his proposal has gained support from several key Democratic legislative leaders. WELCOME HOME Craft s Arts and crafts can become a lucrative business venture for willing entrepreneurs. Among those who have chosen to develop a business enterprise devoted to crafts is Ray Ferrara, owner of Sweet-Earth Leather & Craftshop at 3389 Bailey Avenue. Ferrara, who began working with leather as a hobby, first experimented with selling his goods for a profit in the union at Buffalo State College. Although he holds undergraduate degrees in electrical and mechanical engineering, Ferrara decided to devote his time to the development of his leather crafting abilities. And despite his increased responsibilities, he says, the enjoyment and fulfillment in creating a well crafted product persists. The Homestead, located at 3329 Bailey Avenue, draws its uniqueness from the variety of handcrafts it displays. Owner Gary Rizzo views good craftsmanship as most important, adding that there is no justification for compromising quality for an increase in speed or in an effort to mass produce. Rizzo, a woodworker, was formerly employed in a Chicago woodshop specializing in the assembly line type creation of water beds, tables and . A progressive workshop in modem stage performance showcase relatively unknown playwrights. The director of the current Upstairs Sleeping, Van Oss touched on probably the most important difference between traditional theater and the ACT saying, “Our theater itensifies reality for the audience. It’s not an escape.” The small theater (the ACT site is a former warehouse which houses two theaters) has an intimacy that lends itself beautifully to that reality. Douglas Woolley, an excellent actor with the company, spoke on several other themes of the endeavor. “We don’t do what we know,” he said; “we’re always posing questions and then trying to answer them.” As for the difficulty of being a progressive ensemble, Woolley spoke of the fact that there are no precedents for the type of work they are doing. The American Contemporary Theatre, located at 1695 Elmwood Avenue (north entrance), welcomes any interested students who would like to work for the company with the only criterion being a “willingness to work.” This weekend will see the last performances of the plays Three People by A.R. Gurney, Jr. and Upstairs Sleeping by Harvey Perr. Roger Duvernoy in its desire to The “curtain” is at 8:30. MONOPOLY-BACKGAMMON Friday Last night saw two very good performances play to a handful of people at the American Theatre (ACT) on Contemporary Elmwood Avenue. While this is hardly a new phenomenon in Buffalo theatre, it’s particularly distrubing considering how much this theatre company has to offer. Started in 1972, the ACT has grown to achieve national recognition under the direction of Joe Dunn and Irja Koljonen as one of the most advanced experimental theater companies in the country today. Why then the stacked seats? An unwillingness to communicate can hardly be the fault here. Unlike some artistically oreinted progressive organizations, the ACT feels a genuine commitment to the non-theatrically oriented among us. “When people think of theater,” says director Alex Van Oss, “they conjure up all types of associations: curtains, intermission and so forth. In this respect, we are initially unsettling for our avoidance of conventional devices as such.” r ’til -8 BAILEYAVE.

One such vendor, Philip Pinto, a part-time student here, also known as the “Candle Man,” has been selling his handmade candles in the union for four years. He first became intrigued with candle making while in California, where the craft circle is massive, and candle making has since developed as his livelihood. With a partner, Pinto maintains a workshop and gallery, The Forgotten Light, at 596 Oliver St. in North Tonawanda. Pinto’s involvement with candlemaking includes travelling each summer to fairs and art shows in the Northeast and lecturing to Boy Scout, Girl Scout and Senior Citizen groups in the Buffalo area. Pinto said his business has reached its present “professional” level gradually,, but in the process, the quality of candles has never been sacrificed. Although each candle requires separate attention, Pinto still takes personal fulfillment and satisfaction from the quality ofhis “product.” A familiar display on the first floor of Norton Union is Jim Stephens’ “Chinese paper cuttings.” bookshelves.

Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Loranzetti remarked, “This is probably the last time we will be able to absorb these cuts without an internal reorganization. It has reached the point where we might have to eliminate a department.” “These cuts weaken the effectivenss of the services, until they reach the point where it is hard to justify their existence altogether,” he concluded. Student Affairs has been asked by the University to consider charging for such services as counseling and the placement service. The Spectrum has learned. Lorenzetti felt that while the cuts for his division are on par with the rest of the University, the tremendous demand on this campus for student services made the cuts more detrimental there. In view of these cuts and projected elimination of departments and programs, one administration official asserted that, although Carey’s budget allowed for mandated salary increases, he would “find it morally unacceptable to accept a pay raise while people are being laid off.” In Concert v* • 2 • Harry A^J^o • ,ncert Hall Art • Center# ' • • + 2 2 ON TICKET OFFICE, UB AT K $3.50 Student w/I.D.

Today they are the second leading industrial power in the world, and may well overtake us by 1990. How has this been accomplished? The question is well worth asking, because if we examine the Japanese model, we might learn that our own way of doing things, our own self-estimation, is badly in need of re-examination. Certainly we will find that a great deal of what we do has merit. But that does not diminish the importance of the inquiry. Societies all have their Sacred Cows, ours is no exception. For example, American sports fans faithfully believed (until I960) that you could never regain the Heavyweight Boxing Championship once n f ‘ 1 | you had lost it. That belief came crashing down after Patterson knocked out Ingemar Johansen. in Vietnam, everyone accepts the theory that “you can’t win a land war in Asia” and American power is “overextended.” t suspect these Sacred Cows will exist until someone does “win” a land war in Asia, and some super-power “over-extends” itself into world domination. Floyd After the debacle Sense of self In the February 9 international edition of Newsweek three major articles concern this need to re-think old assumptions. (Why things don’t work in the USSR, Shinjuku, Danil Bell). Two Americans, an architect and a historian have done a study and constructed a display (currently at the museum of modern art) about the Shinjuku section of Tokyo. Shinjuku has to be seen to be believed. It is at one time chaotic, pulsating, and ordered. It grew spontaneously, without the aid of master city planners dictating construction schedules, traffic flow, sanitation etci Yet it works far better than western master plans like Brasilia (Amherst?), because the people want it to work. Simply put, the Japanese have shown that their notion of self and its place in society transcends architectural schemes, and ultimately contributes to the welter called Shinjuku, and, on a larger scale, the whole of Japan. So, while Japanese streets twist and turn incomprehensibly, and skyscrappers tower over century old match box thin houses, you note the absense of door locks, crime and scores of other symbols and styles of living I am accustomed to. There was a time two hundred years ago, when Americans transcended their physical particularities and brought about the American Revolution. Daniel Bell suggests that the “foundation of all society is the willingness of all groups to compromise private ends for the public interest.” The Japanese have mastered this very lesson, and have accomplished much with very little. Death and Dying workshop Currently in its third year, the Death and Dying workshop profoundly changes the thinking of those who attend it, according to students now in the class. Death and Dying is one of the most popular offerings of Life Workshops, a program of non-credit courses taught by skilled volunteers. Life Workshops plans to offer the course as long as the demand for it continues. Workshop leader Rod Saunders is campus minister of the United Methodist Church and teaches in the Religious Studies Program here. He began leading Death and Dying two years ago, when he was invited to do so by the Life Workshops steering Committee. The Committee, after determining that there would be a demand for the class, concluded that Saunders was the best possible person to teach it. The workshop covers many aspects of the topic of death, and is not as morbid as one might think. The first week features the film What Man Shall Live and Not See Death and is followed by seven weeks , of discussion. Lecturing by Saunders is generally confined to introductory passages from books. An important part of the course is the book The Art of Dying by Robert Neal. The book’s exercises are used frequently, Saunders said, to initiate discussions. One discbssion, for example, brought out each of the participants’ feelings about the end of their own lives. Such exercises are designed to help the participants lose their fears and discuss the topic openly. According to Saunders, about 70 percent of the workshop participants are undergraduates, although the present group consists of a larger number of alumni and community residents than usual. , Members of this year’s group said the workshop generally lived up to their expectations, and they were very glad they took it. One alumni participant currently working as a free-lance writer was happy because the course contained even more individual participation than he expected..

So long.” At this stage of the academic year, even the sleepiest of freshmen should be aware of the fact that the intercollegiate athletics program at this university is not commensurate with other programs on campus or with athletics programs at other schools of equal size. The reasons for this are numerous. There are problems involving state funding, scholarships, recruiting, and a whole host of other areas which I am not going to deal with now. Just let us suffice to say that Buffalo is a major university with a minor sports program. Because Buffalo teams are not generally competitive with schools like Ohio State, UCLA, Arizona State, etc., coverage outside of The Spectrum and the few local papers is virtually non-existant. This situation is unfortunate for me as The Spectrum's sports editor, and it is unfortunate for the coaches, players, and students at Buffalo as well. For if we had a football team ranked nationally or a basketball team in the NIT, or a hockey team which produced Olympians, things would be a lot more exciting around the school.

As a Lebanese of the Christian faith who read Samuel Prince’s article about the Lebanese situation (The Spectrum, February 18, 1976), I would like to point out; 1. Either Mr. Prince is very ill-informed or he is trying to misinform the readers. In Lebanon, there are no Christian people or Moslem people; there is the Arab people of Lebanon. only one people — Lebanon has never been nor will it ever be a Christian or a Moslem State. 2. Mr. Prince talks about the Christians as if they are not Arabs. Well, in our history there were Christian Arabs long before there were any Moslem Arabs. And to our culture and civilization, all of our ancestors have contributed regardless of their religion. ->• 3. The war in Lebanon is a class war and is not a religious war as many Zionists like to see it. It is, in part, a war between the poor and the rich, the oppressed against their oppressors. Four out of the five parties described in the American Press as “Moslem Leftists” are founded and being led by Christians from Lebanon. 4. If any Christians or Moslems need to be cried for, then they are the people living under the Zionist occupation where mosques have been burnt (A1 Aksa, for example), and churches have been occupied and fired at by Israeli soldiers and where were put in jails. The priests Christian priests outcries for such crimes have raged many times from the Vatican and other countries. 5. situation in Lebanon should raise the question of why there is blood shed in the Middle East, who introduced it and how to put an end to it? Well, our Middle East was peaceful till the Zionist settlers came to Palestine. When feeling powerful enough, they expelled the Palestinians from their homes, trying to create a state “as Jewish as England is English” at a time when there were 700,000 Jews and 1,380,000 Arabs. This was the beginning of the bloodshed introduced by some racist groups like the Haganah. Unfortunately, this will continue as long as there is even one single Palestinian who wants to return to his home and is prevented from doing so just because he is not of the Jewish faith. The solution is again a secular state in ALL PALESTINE where people can live free regardless of their religion. As long as this is not established, there will never be peace there. - - John Elias Save the squirrels To the Editor. 1 am sick and tired of seeing those poor innocent squirrels maimed and killed by unleashed dogs!

I recognize most of these dogs and sometimes see them on leashes being walked by students, but at classtime, I guess the leashes evaporate .. . Students! If you realized what your dog was doing while you sit in the Library or Math class, maybe you would leave your mutt home.

Farkas, critic at large for his review of the album Savage Eye by the Pretty Things. My attention is drawn to his statement comparing this group to what “Steven Stills might have sounded like if his voice and talent deserted him.” Despite being a very trivial point, I can’t let such an assinine statement be put in print without setting the record straight. Comparing Stills, one of the most influential personalities in American music, to this typical “fags haven't deserted* him, Stills is alive and veil, *rtd remains one of the most versatile guitarists and songwriters around. He’s been with us for some time, and years from now, I am sure that he and his musical partners will be well remembered which is more than 1 can say for “Pretty Things.” “C.P.” has a bad habit that is evident with many music critics. When they’re having trouble evaluating an album, they throw in comparisons left and right to alleviate the problem of describing the music. Somewhere, you have to draw the line. - John Butler in flash” British rock group is absurd. His talents Guest Opinion by the Executive Committee Social Sciences College Despite obvious inconsistencies and logical errors, the Interim Report of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning issued Feb. 12 establishes a clear enough pattern of judgement through its selection of departments and programs to be eliminated or drastically altered. The committee proposes to cut out or cripple over 25 units, a majority of which address specifically the needs of working people, trade unionists, community people and the nationally oppressed. Other units will be weakened through combining with other programs. Most immediately, the President’s Committee has recommended that Social Sciences College and Tolstoy College be “abolished.” These recommendations reveal an abhorently malicious attitude on the part of committee members towards the very people this University should be serving. Typical is the suggestion to out” the Biophysical Sciences “phase Department where the “student clientele is professional (in the broad sense),” in other words working people from the community, “and the program attracts women and minorities at a better than average rate.” Notable too is the irony and arrogance by which the committee dismisses the School of Architecture by “honorfing) the statement of the Dean that the School must grow to survive,” and thus recommending that it be phased out. Nowhere in the document has the committee applied any consistent criteria other than the bold faced denial of the needs of the people of Buffalo, the State and the country. We publically charge the President’s Committee on Academic Planning with an open and brazen assault on academic freedom by viewpoints; censoring with opposition capriciousness and crass manipulation of facts and data; with educational, philosophical and ideological bias; and, in the case of the Colleges, with dictatorial methods by issuing the recommendations over the heads of the current Charter Review Committee. Additionally, we must charge President Ketter with blatant one-sidedness and favoritism in the actual selection of the committee, and with the subsequently obvious disregard for the input of students and a majority of the University - .community. Ketter arbitrarily rejected three nominees to the committee submitted by the Graduate Student Association, and has seen to it that the committee does not reflect the rational aspirations of most members of the University. The Buffalo community should be warned that the University is fast becoming a closed institution. Higher tuitions, fewer faculty and staff, lower admissions, the flight to Amherst, and the possible termination of these programs that the SUNYAB to indicate serve administration Richard Korman Managing Editor Howard Greenblatt Gerry McKeen Advertising Manager Business Manager Howard Koenig Arts Igjfif-*., To the Editor:' has no intentions of serving working people, national minorities, women, or the poor. People who have struggled for peace, democracy and freedom, people who have fought against racism, sexism and exploitation, people who have insisted on a truthful-and meaningful education will be denied room in the University. Indeed, the recommendations found in the report smack unquestionably of McCarthyism, and represent a severe and dangerous turn to the right. The academic and budget cuts serve as a convenient and timely cover for a political mop-up. Future dissent in the University will be uneventfully purged through the lilly-white of “academic evaluations,” “budget crisis,” and “lack of interest.” Future response to the needs of the oppressed will fall on the heels of the racist statement that the need for a Black Studies Program “appears questionable.” categories Likewise, charging Puerto Rican Studies with “dubious academic quality” is the crassest insult to a people who have been colonized and subjected to severe oppression at the hands of powerful American bankers and corporation owners such as those who sit on the Council of trustees of this University. The actions and projections of this Planning Committee are in direct violation of the principles of Affirmative Action which this University d»ims to uphold. They are probably violations of the Constitution. With respect to Social Sciences College, the committee charges that we have “so little involvement by persons qualified by established procedures,” but overlooks the fact that our courses and instructors pass through the same DUE process as do all other undergrad courses, as well as passing through the Colleges Curriculum Committee and the scrutiny of the Dean. The committee has hereto overlooked the fact that eleven departmental professors are members of the college and are actively involved in teaching or administrative work. The committee also charges that a “majority of the teachers in our college are other than regularly appointed University faculty.” This is true since we have fulfilled the college’s prospectus “by wider and more effective use of Community resources.” The committee has demonstrated an extreme bias against the inclusion of such teaching personnel in the University. In fact, it was only a year ago that one of the present members of the Academic Planning Committee attempted to block the appointment of a Black auto worker and union activist from teaching a course in the college on contemporary labor problems. It comes as no surprise that this administration favorite is found in the current role of hatchet-man. Nonetheless, we have now or have had teaching staff from such people in the community as doctors, newspaper editors, nurses, war veterans, trade union organizers, former Attica prison inmates, Day care teachers, community organizers and peace and civil rights leaders. In addition, the committee claims that the college has “shown a 10% drop in enrollment” in the past year. The facts are to the contrary: we have increased our enrollment every semester since 1973 (130) with the exception of this past Fall, 1975 when a lower figure (160) came largely as the result of inaccurate listings and ommissions in the Class Schedule. Our present enrollment has climbed to over 250. Why is all this information missing from the report? Why is it that the same information that is used to uphold the integrity of one unit is used to boot another out the door? Why is there no mention of the uniqueness of the Social Sciences College program in the nation? Why is there no consideration whatsoever given to the needs of “professionals (in the broad sense)," women and minorities? The irony of the situation is that the report of this “respected” committee calls into question the academic, intellectual and ethical integrity and qualifications not of certain “dubious” programs, but of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning itself. The real decision is not whether the need for necessary programs “appears questionable,” but whether there is any need at all for the proposals reached by a committee so constituted that its findings could be predicted from the start. The real question is whether there is any need for a reactionary, anti-human and racist committee. We have previously gone on record opposing all cutbacks in the University. We continue our stand and extend our hand to any and all sectors of the University under attack or threat, regardless of political beliefs. It is only through the concerted and united efforts of all members of the University that we can secure a just, vital and responsive future for our University. �a CT7 I l»v rs* Our Weekly Reader Take It Or Leave It; An Exaggerated Second-Hand Tale To Be Read Aloud Either Standing Or Sitting, Raymond Federman (The Fiction Collective/George Braziller. $11.95/$4.95, fiction, unpaginated) One of the pleasures of reading the thing that keeps you reading, I think, is that deep experience of recognizing your own voice speaking back to you from an eloquent page. This recognition may come as a husky seductive whisper in a profound part of you your head, or as a shout, a whoop of bound out of your chair feeling that you must applaud yourself, take a turn around the room, do a jig for the excitement of the thoughts which, .enypciated so smoothly, seem like your own. Or, perhaps if you are more sedate, you will merely nod, puff on your pipe, notice that you have thought this all before, and congratulate the author for his cleverness. Our resident novelist Ray Federman's recent work, Take It Or Leave It, is just that way; it brings that complicity between narrator and reader to sensuous proportions. His voices (and this novel is a catalog of voices) seem so close that the text literally arouses you, and you can feel warm breath down your back. Like most critics, I was in danger of forgetting what it is like to get lost in a work in order to find oneself again. Federman returned me to my readership. Being returned to reading through Take It Or Leave It is like waking up one morning in a more youthful, more athletic, wiser, and flightier body. Sprouting wings. This is a Story? From the very first page of Take It Or Leave It, the reader is set agog, disoriented, cajoled, bullied, seduced, buggered, bugged, and buggied about as though by a stand-up comedian-philosopher who exhorts us to laugh as we ponder our worldly ■ distress. (And this is a very worldly book.) The confusion arises from the typography, yet, a playful poetry-like disarray of words, letters, symbols, dashes, and curlicues on the page, but also from an incredibly wrdught arabesque of senses an element missing from his earlier novel. Double Or Nothing, which was a Chinese box game of meanings within meanings and tales within tales. In the chapter "Critifiction; Crap, Lie or Die?" the hero (if you can call him that) is telling his story to Moinous (a me-us mediator who interfers. — revokes, invokes, comments, disrupts, and whimsically shapes the story before it reaches us via the further "interruptions and vociferations" of the author — whoever that may be). The first "teller" is driving through a surrealistic snowstorm on some mountainous road in Vermont. As he wends his way along the road, hugging the hillside, he continually reminds his readers that on his right is the precipice, the gorge, the gully into which at any moment his Buick Special (probably the only true hero in the work) may plunge as they hurtle together through the blinding snow on their night journey. But, as we discover, the precipice is also about to engulf the story which is careening through the unnumbered pages pf the book in increasing confusion; at one point there is a dialogue between the author and reader, then a monologue of Moinous, or a fight between the teller and the hero, or Moinous and the hero, or all at once; at other points Federman writes about the meaning of fiction, about laughter, about the obsessiveness of reflexiveness about the split selves of narration, about the impossibility of meaning, of telling, of fiction. The hero peers through the snow and sees a spectral shadow in the middle of the road. It is Cam Taataam, (in real like, Campbell Tatum, a critic working on a book about Federman) a consumptive, doctoral near-blind scholar completing his to All “Key dissertation (Casatibon's Mythologies"?). The driver picks him up and is subjected to a harangue on Cam's project. It seems Taataam is trying to piece together the fictional and autobiographical fragments of an author he is not even sure exists. This author, Hombre de la Pluma English: (in Feathermerchant; in* German: Federmann), has escaped the Nazi concentration camps in which his family was destroyed, fled to America, lived in Brooklyn, fucked women in the Catskills, had various assignations with various other women, hung out with Charlie "Bird" Parker, and when Taataam last heard, was driving from his paratrooper barracks in North Carolina to Camp Drum, N.V., where he is to pick Up a paycheck and 30-day leave. (This, of course, is more or less the complete story line of Take it Or Leave It.) Why is Cam mucking around in the snow on a hillside in Vermont? Because he heard Hombre had left a treasure when he passed by, a key to all his work that would wrap up Cam's dissertation. After leaving Cam off in the snow, the driver watches as Cam jumps off the cliffside. Five minutes later, he notices he's been pickpocketed. A few minutes after that he drives his Buick Special over the gorge where it is miraculously saved by an enormous Christmas tree that spreads its arms to receive him aloft. One us left wobdering which is the treasure the car or the wallet. Or is it, as another author notes, that "the key is the treasure"? We critics are fussy. We tend to ignore that creative stuff erupting in the backyard to seek more exotic fodder. We wait for a kind of collective belch to signal that an author is now suitable for our attention, hoping the bowelstink still lingers about him so we have something to sniff at. Federman in this one incident among thousands in the novel has fixed a fiction so that it is rigged to go off in the mind, a timed bomb. It bears many similarities in structure to the work of Barth and Borges and Robbe-Grillet. But had any of the latter crafted these pieces, heads would nod: Borges makes one smile, Barth makes one dance, Robbe-Grillet, sleep, weep, die (he's so dead serious). So what if Federman has to jump up and down, wave his hands, scream, boast, strut, lie, beat his own chest, toot his own horn, bruit abrout, do backflips into cups of nonsense in order to catch out attention? When he does, we start one long, bowel-ripping, bellowing — laugh. This novel is bound to be misunderstood. In fact, it strives to be misunderstood. It is also extremely sensitive to the limits of the kind of diction, the fictional parameters, which it evolves. Federman is continually undercutting critics by including all possible criticism in its pages. His own words, I'm afraid, are doomed to be used against him. Take It Or Leave It is an experimental novel in the best sense of the word. I mean, all novels experiment, whether Great Expectations or Rebecca of Sunny brook Farm. But very few demand the kind of participation this novel does. Sterne's Tristram Shandy comes to mind, and we can trace the geneology of this work back to that tradition of the athletic novel of digressions, permutations, and convolutions that is basically farcical: a parody, a burlesque of fiction at the same time it strives to be by Randi Schnur Arts Editor Of all the images conjured up in the movie-goer's mind by the phrases “costume drama" or "period piece," perhaps the quickest and most obvious might reflect the bombast of a Griffith or maybe even the or the colorful exaggeration of a DeMille verbal eloquence of a relatively recent epic about British royalty or the cold elegance of Barry Lyndon. Antique costumes and archaic figures of speech can certainly be lots of fun to work with and, when chosen well, quite entertaining in their own right so entertaining, in fact, that they're liable to run away with the — — whole show. But to be truly moving, an effective period film must have something of the quality of an affecting memory; it must be evocative enough and yet close enough to pull one right into its world, to force one to admit, "Yes, I was there once, and that really is the way it was." All of the characters jostling each othe, in the amiable tittle ghetto of Hester Street look as if they could step right back into the yellowed photographs they resemble without bothering to rearrange a single hair or expression. (Indeed, the last credit to appear onscreen is director Joan Micklin Silver's acknowledgement to the Jewish Museum in Manhattan.) But these are not merely history book illustrations; these are the people we've found hidden in the backs of our grandparents' closets, the second cousins and great aunts who had only heard of American 75 or 80 years ago. Back to life We've heard all their stories, but, obviously, we never saw they had turned into Yankees (revered as almost a them superior order of being, until they got close enough) several years before we were born, Hester Street does a wonderful job of recreating this lost society of immigrants, a small world of which only the internal traces remain. Hester Street begins as the story of a young immigrant who has renounced as much of his Russian Jewish background as his dubious sense of decency will allow in favor of his all-consuming passion for Yankeedom. A dapper, trim moustache has replaced the full beard of his father; evenings at Joe Pcltner's Dancing Academy (with its "No Yiddish Spoken Here" sign translated into the forbidden language lest anyone miss the point) take up and his the time he must once have spent in the synagogue liaison with the grand Miss Mamie Fein, famous for her lovely face and her $365 in saved wages, more than makes up for the young wife and child left behind. Then the news of his father's death forces Jake's past up into an uncomfortable alliance with his present. Gitl and little Yossele whom he will insist, to his wife's great confusion, on renaming "Joey" must be sent for, and Jake's faith in the success of his own attempts at transfiguration is in danger of disappearing — — — — altogether. Out of time It is after Gill's arrival in her initial consternation, her eventual surprising strength, her fantastic ability to beat Jake on that the film acquires a fascination his own foreign terms beyond the merely historical. Seen in a tiny role as Art Garfunkel's teen-aged girlfriend in Carnal Knowledge and in a leading one in Wedding in White, actress Carol Kane's face and manner had an almost mystical quality, as if she belonged to another century. This must have been her world all along: Kane's delicate strength is the jumping-off point for the concise clarity of Gill's characterization. many scenes are shot straight Silver's odd camera angles downward or from a point that seems to be high above the opposite corner of a room emphasize the characters' remoteness in space as well as in time, underlining the newly-arrived Gill's puzzled "Where in America is a gentile?" Hester Street in 1896 housed a society complete in itself, and Jake's attempts at playing baseball with his son are as unconsciously self-parodic as are his other stabs at "fitting in." Silver’s camera set-ups express this anomaly quite as well as do so many of her characterizations. Made in black and white, often lapsing into Yiddish (with English sub titles), Hester Street is a small, old-fashioned reminder of a small old-fashioned world. Now playing at the Boulevard Mall Cinema, the film has some of the makeshift but even more of its dimly roughness of immigrant life remembered charm. — — — — — �Screening at Albright Bailie's sounds and images blend, unfold Tom^Lauria by Spectrum Arts Staff The films of Bruce Baillie, four of which the director screened February 19 at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, work in the manner of a prism. Through Baillie, concepts as illuminating and dear as shafts of light fall upon different areas. A certain strand of his work deals with the fusion of images; his early films.strive for documented realism; later reels are streamlined and nearly unconscious. Batllie's initial works show an awareness of narrative structure. Photographed in black and white, they yield sociological glimpses into the labors of a Japanese gardener {Mr. Hayashi), old men and a go-go dancer in Frisco {On Sundays) and the Berkeley gymnastics team {The Gymnasts ). The film he screened last night. Here I Am, is collage-like Buffalo by storm band first introduced to our fair populace at this and freer in form. Here Am is a "bridge" across Baillie's collected Supertramp, the band which took at last spring, is giving it another go. Their long-awaited year's Summerfest. The show is tomorrow works. Its abstract, fluttery editing would later unfold into the rivers of return performance at 8 p.m. with all seat $6. Music Hall British Klainhans Ace, open with a will color that have distinguished his career. / Dream hues Two of the films he showed last night were probably selected for their cross-sectional illustration of the various elements of cinema that interest Baillie and make his work individual. Tung (1967) is literally a representation of a dream. Most of the footage was shot the same day the actual dream occurred. A female figure with a long scarf drifts in and out of frame in front of a blue-tinted, moon-like sun which hovers in a creamy purple sky. Red flashes dash in front on the indigo flow. Words of a poem that also figured in the real dream hit the screen in staccato-paced editing. White light sparkles sporadically throughout, like choppy waves in a reflecting pool. It disrupts the intensity of the blueness, destroying perspective and flattening images. The film is silent. The use of identifiable images is kept at a minimum. The silky, trance-like effect of Baillie's changing colors sets an almost musical meter. Each hue is enticing; it stands on its own, much like the colors in a Rothko painting in another room of the gallery. Valentin de las Sierras (1967) is an exercise in the sensuousness of color. Baillie shows a Mexican village, sunlight, interconnecting images that are edited together with a liquid smoothness. Often the camera remains out of focus, producing only shape and color. In these scenes, Baillie uses the blurred movement of color as a device to move from one scene to another. Erotic close-ups of eyes, waists, hands, and lips are all handled in terms of tactile impressions. the timeless People are caught, Catching not Americans. Within the last two years, there have been one man retrospectives of the Artist's work at both the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C. and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. His new interest in video theatre promises even further extensions of Baillie's very singular ability to blend and unfold sounds and images. eight The Spectrum Friday, 20 February 1976 . . Clunkard amidst successes she's at her most laborious The great character actor Leo McKern (his Thomas Cromwell in A Man For AH Seasons was The only mistakes Gene Wilder has ever made unforgettable) is a pudgy-faced, long-haired compose The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes' Professor Moriarty.

Though McKern is far too long series of sterling performances, especially in Mel Brooks' comedies (and most especially his whining, accomplished an actor to fall completely flat, like infantile Leo Bloom in The Producers, the sole any actor, he can only rise so far above his material. a penny-dreadful plot about the That material obstruction to Zero Mostel's walking away with that could have given film) established him as probably the finest recovery of a stolen document the film some cohesion if it hadn't been given such American comic actor in film.

But Wilder slides appeal is surely limited to high school sophomores. grease under even his well-planted feet, both by that (The film even starts with one; stately, plump Queen non-script and by keeping DeLuise offscreen until Victoria disgustedly mumbling, "Oh, shit.")

The film is filled with music and with images of animals and families. These things become timeless in a shot of a child's face and the superimposition of an ancient statue with identical features. Much of Baillie's work is at least partly autobiographical. His most acclaimed work. Quick Billy (1967-70), originated after a near fatal bout with hepatitis. The film deals philosophically with life and the obscure nature of death. Another work, Quixote (1965), deals with America as he saw it while traveling for years in a Volkswagen van and living in a tent in the Morning Star commune. He founded the Canyon Cinema in Berkeley in 1961 as an outlet for independent filmmakers. A series of 1973 newsreels about his current home, Roslyn, Washington, has become the basis for Baillie's most recent work, the fourth in the program last night.

The "lies" referred to in the title go beyond these obvious untruths. Zayda too could have been accused of lying through his imaginary tales, yet he never is. It is the intention behind the lies that makes the difference. The truly important lies concern Harry Herman's morality. Herman places money over truth, prestige over kindness and objects over people. It is this value system which is false the model Herman presents for his son is essentially a — lie. Yossi Yadin's performance as the Zayda stands out above all the other acting in the film. He is believable as an old and wise Jewish man struggling against the loss of sanity in the present world.

However, while watching David I was reminded of the overly sweet children on television's Family Affair. At times his innocent questions and childish mannerisms become too cute.

Friday, 20 February 1976 . The Spectrum . Page nine �- Bavarian Radio Orchestra, Rafael Kubelik conductor, Gustav Mahler Symphony No. 1 {Titan) Before 1960, the music of Gustav Mahler had been largely neglected and probably would have been forgotten if not for the efforts of a few German maestros such as Bruno Walter and Wilhelm Furtwangler. It was in the last decade, however, that Mahler's great music first began to be popular in America, and with the advent of high quality stereo recordings, the public was able to have its first taste of that new and exciting music. As of today, there are numerous recordings of the Mahler symphonies, including three boxed sets containing the entire collection. It has been my pleasure to hear many of these, most recently those conducted by the well known Mahler devotee, Rafael Kubelik. These recordings are, in my opinion, the finest renditions of Mahler's symphonies available. In them Kubelik leads the Bavarian Radio Orchestra, and although that group of artists does not receive the recognition of the great London Symphony Orchestra or the Vienna Philharmonic, I regard it as one of the top European orchestras. Kubelik's approach to the Mahler first symphony is slightly unconventional. The work's subtitle pf "Titan" and its bombastic way nature lead some conductors to feel that it must be played this Many not what did want. exactly Mahler throughout, which I believe is parts of the symphony require subtle and tender treatment due to their genius soft and lyrical nature, and it is here that Kubelik proves his real as a Mahler interpreter. The opening bars of the symphony are marvelously simplistic, and reveal from the first Mahler's characteristic treatment of individual instruments. The haunting atmosphere of the horns gives way to a beautiful and gay passage dominated by strings and woodwinds. This is the major theme heard throughout the first movement and is interrupted at frequent intervals by the sorrowful strains of cellos, which, after brief development, are replaced by horns leading to a loud and majestic climax involving the entire orchestra. Following this is a relatively short and rhythmic movement with its frequently repeated theme shared by strings and woodwinds. An occasional horn intervenes, and this technique is one which becomes characteristic of Mahler in his later works. Interrupted only briefly by a soft playful melody, the movement ends amid wild exuberance. In contrast with the preceding two, the third movement is barely a whisper. It begins with rhythmic beating of drums accompanied by a solo cello. In a fugue-like manner, horns, winds, and the full range of strings are introduced along with a strikingly original use of the clarinet. The music is suggestive of shadows and once merry places which have been long deserted. It is during this movement that one first hears the foreshadowings of a much older and more mature Mahler. Stirringly melancholy, the music progresses through a number of variations and melodies, ending on the one with which it began. The conclusion to the work begins with a deafening crash and a lengthy outpouring of full orchestral power. The music is exultant and overwhelming, and Mehler considerately releases one slowly from its bewitching spell, only to introduce him to an intriguing representation of human distress and misfortune. Once again the mighty forces of Mahler's orchestra build and with their gradual fall, the listener first hears the notes of redemption in the horns. Before the end, the work climaxes once again and at the finish, one cannot help feeling that his every emotion has been touched, at the same time draining him of his last ounce of energy as if he had completed a hard day's work. Throughout the course of the first symphony, Marley instills vitality and deep emotion in his work, which is magnified and intensified by Kubelik in one of the great recordings of the century. -Michael Tetenman - yi f — * &L Jerry Garcia, Reflections (Round) Here we have the third solo effort of Jerry Garcia, and a pleasant surprise it is. Of course, all you Deadheads knew it would be great all along (I mean c'mon, man, like how could it be anything but intense?). Although this collection still falls short of the first Garcia, it far surpasses the last one in production, choice of compositions, and especially vocals. Jerry jutnps right into side one with "Might as Well," a great attention-getter. This is real rock and roll, not unlke the two record Skull and Roses collection. Keith and Donna Godchaux were excellent additions to the Dead family, as evidenced by Keith's solid keyboards and Donna's vocals. Without a doubt, Ms. Godchaux possesses one of the most powerful and interesting voices I've heard in quite a while. Although I feel that Garcia's voice sounds stronger than ever, it still falls short of the quality, that is a basic necessity of lead vocal work. Donna more than makes up for it on Reflections. Slowing things down to the usual Dead-oriented speed is "Mission in the Rain." John Kahn, bass player for Old and In the Way and The Legion of Mary, switches to synthesizer here and does a fine job. This is Garcia at his most unique, making music with that inimitable trademark, his omnipresent lead guitar. Flavoring each cut with tasty licks, Garcia's playing is as strong as ever. A song first introduced on the concert stage by The Legion of Mary, 'They Love Each Other" presents a soul influence, probably induced by Merl Saunders, former keyboard man for The Legion. With an introduction vaguely reminiscen of "Sugar Magnolia," and a heavy Lesh bass, the track is one of thes best on the album, and keeps the side moving. Rounding out side one is "I'll Take a Melody," a cut authored by New Orleans jazzman Allen Toussaint. Garcia handles all the feature instruments on here, including synthesizer and percussion. The latter of these two is outstanding, lending a snappy reggae influence to the song. The track that has been getting the most airplay, "It Must Have Been the Roses," opens side two. This Garcia-Hunter composition, originally featured on Hunter's own Tales of the Great Rumrunners, is once again enhanced by Donna Godchaux's vocal ' “Mr. Piano" Roger Williams, Virtuoso (MCA) First of all, let me say that Roger Williams has never been one of my favorite performers. Ever since I heard classical piano pieces played as they were meant to be played, I realized that Mr. Williams and his kind were taking material with real substance and turning it into musical pablum. To say I was somewhat prejudiced when I listened to the album would have been an understatement. I suppose I could have constructed an entire review around the sentiments of that first paragraph, but I don't think that would have been fair. Therefore, I set about looking for anyone who was familiar with this type of music. 1 did find a few people, but they really couldn't tell me what they enjoyed (or didn't enjoy) about Roger Williams. Just as I was about to give up hope, I realized that there was a group of experts all around me: my plant collection. So, with all of the plants in earshot, I put Virtuoso on the turntable. Side one was nice; I woke up just in time to flip it over. Side two must have been better, because I didn't wake up until a few hours after it finished. Then, with pencil and paper in hand, I started to gather opinions. I first stopped at the Sansevieria on the windowsill, a Roger Williams fan for longer than I can remember. "It's hard to believe that that was Williams," it said. "I mean, he's trying to be so mod, with that contemporary sound and all those synthesizers thrown in. There were only a few things I really liked, but I'll have to listen to it again. As I remember, none of it was as good as Liberace, but it beats your Wakeman album by a mile." My African violet, however, was much more quite energetic without impressed. "It was nice being intense. When I heard that first song, my apical — talents. Of the remaining three tracks, Hank Ballard's 'Tore Up Over You*' is my personal favorite. It rocks as well as "One More Saturday Night" or "Bertha." Larry Knechtel, who is usually found playing keyboards for the Los Angeles faction of California music, shares piano chores with Nicky Hopkins here, the featured keyboard artist on the latest Garcia tour. The last two cuts are "Catfish John," with an excellent instrumental track (whoever thought that Jerry could manage all those keyboards?), and "Comes a Time," a Dead relic culled from ancient bootlegs of the Dark Star period. It is exemplary Dead, with all the necessary components to get blown away by. Cosmic sounds, and all that. One major complaint about this solo release is that it really isn't solo. When every member of the Dead and their lyricist get together, doesn't that constitute a bona fide Grateful Dead disc? I guess not maybe it's because Weir doesn't get his customary three lead vocals. But excusing this weakness, the album is very enjoyable. And of course, I wouldn't dream of speaking ill of the Dead. —Barbara Komansky - - >. * The first of three Bicentennial dance programs by the University's Zodiaque Dance Company will be presented tonight through Sunday night at 8 p.m. in the Harriman Theatre Studio.

Prodigal Sun �Our Town Unfair play To the Editor. by Brett Kline Well, it has happened again another sign torn down, defaced and destroyed. It seems like such ignorance, such childishness, such misunderstanding. Well before whomever it is decides to tear down another sign, let me give them a few facts. Each party is allowed to spend $24 per candidate on campaigning. Not an awful lot of money. And so we go buying paper and magic markers, asking friends and anyone interested to help us make signs. Each takes approximately two to three hours, this may seem a long time but without artistry, only hard work will suffice. So far we have lost six of these signs. Please realize that we are not allowed to use any more money than we have already spent, our supplies are running low. It seemed after Saturday night that each party had lost its share of signs. But as the week has progressed it seems that a wholly disproportionate number of SALT and PEPPER signs have been destroyed. On Monday night we lost fifty posters in core road alone. Please realize whomever you are that this is unfair to our cause. Why don’t you find out what we stand for before you act, maybe then you’ll help us put up signs rather than tear them down. - Andrea Gabelman Women against rape How did we do it? It was so easy. After all, I were fully accredited graduates of this university, and for us to finish our schooling and simply move on up was no less than a fulfillment of the American dream. Our town is actually a small village of about a thousand people, situated near the Pennsylvania line about two and a half hours southwest of Buffalo. You see, this was not just a scheme haphazardly dreamed of by a few crazy, stoned college kids who had nothing better to do with their time and parents’ money than fake a-serious education. Our town was chosen after careful consideration because of its resort location, the availability of some important positions and the susceptibility of its citizenry. Actually, it was chosen because it was there that lay the key to our success and seemingly any success a good connection. But let me introduce my friends.

To the Editor. According to U.B. security, rape is not a problem on and around our campus. As women, we know this to be a lie. For over a year we have been attempting to organize an educational outreach and crisis counseling center for university women. Because of social and financial reasons women have been reluctant to devote much energy to this cause. Until more women are willing to commit themselves to the organizational work this entails, we can no longer function productively. We will continue to struggle around the issue of rape but we must postpone our original goal of establishing such a center until more women have the opportunity to actively involve themselves. We urge women to take the responsibility to reflect on their own feelings about rape and determine where we can proceed at this time to meet the needs of women on this campus.

Of course, a lawyer and notary public were needed, so my old housemate, Verry, arrived on the scene. Yes, those long hours of reading Joyce and Dostoyevsky and writing metaphorical finally paid off.

One such reason is sodium nitrate, which is added to meat to make it red in color. Silbesterol, a sex hormone, is injected into cattle and poultry to “fatten fhem up” before slaughter.' All its danger to humans is unknown, but there is the possibility that it is the cause of various cancers. High-protein feeds, in addition to Silbesterol, are also used in fattening the animal before slaughter. With all these fattening agencies at work, it is no wonder that today’s beef carcass is one-fifth fat, one-fourth swine, and one-third lamb.

Many myths surround the vegetarian diet. It does not consist entirely of lettuce and carrots, as many believe. On the contrary, the vegetarian diet is an innovative and creative one involving a wide range of vegetables, fruits, grains and legumes. Depending on the individual, some diets are more restricted than others. While some vegetarians will eat eggs and dairy products, others do not out of a conviction not to exploit animals in any way. Protein Individuals unfamiliar with the vegetarian diet frequently are of the opinion that a plant-based diet does not supply sufficient protein for the individual. Because protein is vital to the basic chemical reactions of life and to maintain a healthy body environment, this claim must be explored. It is true that the essential amino acids found in animal protein are closer in percentage to human body requirements than are those in plants. However, various plant sources do provide enough biological protein when bombined properly. Soybeans and whole rice, individually, contain biological values similar to that of meat. Biological value denotes the amount of absorbed protein actually utilized by the body. As one plant source may be more deficient in an amino acid than another, it is necessary to combine various plant sources into one meal.

Brushman Spectrum Staff Writer It’s playoff time again for intramural basketball, and emotions are running high. There are six teams in strong for the competition championship, and the playoffs will separate the men from the boys. The pre-playoff favorites have to be The Heads who advanced to the finals last year but were eliminated. According to team captain Jim Corigliano, “We are a closely knit team and play well as a unit.” The Heads boast a strong front line highlighted by Jim Slayton, Norm Weber, and the tough Jim Randle. Hot Flash Royal Flash should also be a factor in the final rounds. Steve Silber runs the offense and claims that, “On any given night, we can beat anyone in the league.” He may have a point, Considering the high scoring potential of swingman Brian McCann and forward Ralph Reissman. Those two give the Flash an awesome offensive major Captain attack ... additionally, defensive Jeff Cook can be counted on to give fits to the opposing team’s hot scorer. The last team with a top chance for a championship is Med School III and IV. The Doctors boast a strong rebounding game led by Captain Brian Kaufman and Mike Anderson, in addition to Peter Wolk and Mike Hirsh who formerly played on the varsity basketball teams at Michigan specialist (that’s the right, at Brandeis University Wolverines) and University, reflectively. This all-star contingent is filled out by another defensive specialist and shot blocker, Scott Milchman. Captain Kaufman blames a lack of competition in the Thursday 8:30 league for his team’s partial lack of cohesiveness on the floor. Three other teams that are knocking on the championship door are The Orphans, Cannabis and The Rockets. Lack parents, have talent The Orphans are captained by Chester Sielski who boasts an “excellent defense” as his team’s forte. Forward Bill Stewart is said to be a “strong rebounder and excellent playmaker” which is a somewhat weird combination of talents, but maybe we have another Wes Unseld on our hands. The Orphans’ top scorer is Tim Palma who led his team to an overwhelming 105-31 victory last week. Cannabis is led by 6’10” center Ron Dahms who not surprisingly is their leading scorer and rebounder. The fact that 6’4” Greg Antoine is the playmaking guard indicates a lot of height for the pot smokers. They’ve been winning by an average of over 30 points a game. One wonders how this team gets mentally prepared for each game. The Rockets are led by flashy 6’3” forward Kevin Judd. James Mack is murder off the boards and “Marvelous Marv” captain bobbins is the key playmaker. According to Marv, “We go all the way. We’ve been blowing everyone out.” and 6’0” swingman Lenny Rollins who is reminiscent of Atlanta Hawks’ John “Drew with his leading ability and excellent timing off the offensive boards. Steve Saltzman is the epitome of the streak shooter. When he’s hot, it’s all over. Bennett Greenberg runs the ballclub with a great deal of finesse, and this team could surprise everyone. There are 16 divisions, each of which will be represented by two J Noodles not stiffs A dark horse possibility might be the undefeated Captain Noodle. They have tremendous IiTVttI I teams. The season is split up into two five game sets. If different teams win each set, they both go to the playoffs. If one team wins both sets, the team with the next 10 game record sees post-season action along with the best champion. The playoffs get underway Hall with Sunday in Clark eliminations continuing until the finals on February 29 at 1 p.m. in Clark Hall. | The New Century Theatre Buffalo 511 Main personnel headed by 6’4” center Eddie Skolnick who does it all, Women hoopsters win again The women’s basketball team beat cross-town rival Buffalo State Tuesday night 51-41, raising their season’s record to 8-3. Buffalo guard Clyde O’Malley had the hot hand, leading all scorers with 16 points. Karen Carr had 14 for State. The Bengals took a 17-14 half-time lead, as Buffalo could only manage to hit 20 percent of its shots. It was Buffalo’s defense which kept the game close. “We used a new zone defense which pretty much controlled their offense,” explained Bulls’ coach Carolyn Thomas. than the zone defense of the first half. O’Malley led the charge both and offensively defensively. “O’Malley played super defense and a super game,” Thomas said. Buffalo center Ann Trapper contributed eleven points and eleven rebounds for the Bulls, while forward Patty Dolan matched Trapper’s rebound total. Thomas was optimistic about upcoming Big the Four Championship, next Friday and Saturday at Koessler Athletic Center, despite the fact that Buffalo was .beaten badly by Canisius last week. Thomas did not feel that the result was indicative of Buffalo and Canisius’ relative strengths since the Bulls improved second half, while their full-court only shot 18 percent from the press proved to be more effective floor in that game. The Bulls also will be hoping for a bid to the New York State Division II Championships on March 4 at Hartwick. This weekend, eight Division II teams throughout the state will be picked, based on their season’s record, and on Wednesday the decisions will be announced. “It’s going to be very competitive,” Thomas said. “There are a lot of good teams around the city [New York]Meanwhile, Buffalo plays Genesee Community College And Coming Up WHh A SHIMMERING JEWELRY OF •CORAL RAKR SHELL MIKA JADE, A OIANT MIKA IVORY, AGATE RENOANTS EXOTIC MOTHER OF KARL ABALONS NUGGETS Or You Can Oiv# In Horn And Como Up WMi Tho Somo And So Thing * fRootenoblo ORIENTAL JEWELRY TOO! • Room 339 Norton All are invited to attend 1 i ...

He said that the admissions policies “are all night long. what’s killing us.” Tony Holloway, a freshman prospect for the Rams was singled out by Buffalo No help for Ricahrdson to make a point about admissions. It was obvious that the Rams were just plain “Look at Holloway. He wouldn’t get in the front better than the Bulls on Wednesday night, and door here,” said the Bulls’ coach. Buffalo Coach Leo Richardson was not offering any About 'Home, Richardson remarked, “Otis excuses. He said, “Let’s face it. We’re not going to be Home has been our biggest disappointment. Because their calibre with just seven kids getting help.” he’s a senior, he should be playing better.” However, there was one Bull who showed he could play with VCU anytime. Sam Pellom, who has Dependable Domzalskl stablized the Bulls’ front line all season long, had an The only kind words that Richardson had were outstanding game. He scored 26 points and hit-57 for guard Gary Domzalski. “Domzalski is the senior percent from the field. He also added ten blocked dependable most man we’ve got and one of the shots, and an incredible 31 rebounds, one short of finest men I’ve ever coached,” said young the school record. Yet Richardson was not overly Richardson. impressed by Pellom’s performance, commenting, The Bulls, who are now 8—15, have three more “Sam did a pretty good job, but he could have done games left on this year’s schedule. They face better. He let some people drive around him.” One of those driving guards for VCU was Cleveland State on Saturday at ECC North. They Jerome Henderson. He did as much for the Rams as close out their home season one week later against Pellom did for the Bulls, scoring 34 points and Geneseo. The season’s finale is March 3 in the annual picking up six steals and five rebounds.

Sostre was officially released - from Green Haven State February 9, Penitentiary following an executive order for clemecy issued Christmas Eve by Governor Hugh Carey. Sostre spent over seven years in various state prisons, mostly in confinement. Initially solitary convicted of selling S15 worth of heroin to a police informant, he was later found guilty of assaulting seven prison guards during an attempted rectal examination. After his conviction for the heroin sale, Arto Williams, the prosecution witness who bought the heroin, recanted his testimony, claiming he was forced into it by local police officials. Radical activities Many people believe Sostre was Organization an International, to the release of political prisoners as a victim of political repression. Sostre said he felt “totally vindicated” in his release from prison. “The power of the people of the world forced the hands of Carey and even higher federal officials,” he asserted. Sostre recounted a speech given by dedicated United Nations (U.N.) Ambassador Patrick Moynihan calling for the release of all political prisoners in the world. The speech prompted Amnesty International to send a telegram to Moynihan.

Currently an aide to State Assemblyperson Marie Runyon in her office in New York City’s Harlem. Sostre identified his goals as “lobbying for prison reform and helping to organize the community . , Sostre did not mention any conditions imposed by the state for his release. Despite speculation that Sostre must drop his appeal, he said he is not. “1 am going to tft&S . 111 y appeal as far as is necessary in the courts, until 1 receive the justice due me.” he asserted.

Sostre spoke proudly of his resistance to attempts to “break him" while in One fight “The fight whether of repression they be the people is the same, in New York City’s Harlem, Buffalo’s Last Side or anywhere," Sostre said.

Sostre taxing called for the “accumulated wealth” of the huge corporations in a higher bracket, approximately 90 percent of the totals. “This can easily be used instead of taxing the income of those people who can least afford to subsidize these tremendous conglomerates,” he said. “1 am not in the least afraid of returning to Buffalo,” Sostre declared. “1 am retur mg home to help remove those oppressors, Mike Amico and ‘Mad Dog’ Marshall, from political office and power.” he asserted.

Shapiro, Schwartz and Wahaab are all backed by full tickets. With at least three candidates running for each of the eight SA executive positions, this year’s campaign is expected to be more active than last year’s one-party contest. In addition to President, positions available are Executive Vise President, Treasurer, Sub Board Vice President.

Scholarship funds in danger The State University Scholarship (SUS) funds are in danger of being eliminated for graduate and professional students, according to the Director of the Financial Aid Office, Joseph Stillwell. The final decision regarding the future of this source of financial aid will be made at a meeting of the State University of New York Board of Trustees February 25. BEOG grants caught in financial struggle by Cynthia Croaaen The Spectrum Special to (CPS) Rumors are flying around hundreds of university financial aid offices this spring as student and administrators alike second guess the future of Basic Educational Opportunity Grants (BEOG). Funding for the three-year-old student grant program has fallen so short for this academic year that some 800 colleges which applied for funds have been left in the lurch. Unless Congress decides to appropriate additional funds to the BEOG program for this year, student grants already awarded could be reduced by as much as two-thirds. The BEOG boondoggle is the result of some Office of Education miscalculations which predicted last year that only 56 percent of the students eligible for basic grants this academic year would apply for - • them. But applications for the federal funds poured into the Office of Education at the rate of 40,000 a week last fall and even now are arriving at the rate of 15,000 to 20,000 a week. The 950,000 expected applications jumped to more than 1.2 million candidates. At last count, some 74 percent of the eligible student had applied for grants. Average $830 Funds were appropriated to the BEOG program last year on the basis of the Office of Education’s prediction and for the first time in the program’s history, full grants of $1400 were awarded. The average grant for this year’s recipients was $830. But the cost to the government of offering bigger grants to more people rose from the early estimate of $840 million to more than $1 billion and the difference has still not been made up. While students across the country wait anxiously for spring payments, Congress is trying to decide where to find the money to fill in the gap. The Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) has asked Congress for $180 million more for this year’s grants, if necessary taking the funds from another student-assistance plan, the National Direct Student Loans. But it appears unlikely that Congress will agree to taking from the loan fund and giving to the grants. An alternative resource suggested by HEW is for Congress to borrow the $180 million from the 76-77 basic grant appropriation, set by President Ford in his budget proposal at only $1.2 million. HEW Under-Secretary Marjory Lynch recommended that the borrowed funds then be replaced with supplemental appropriation. Recalculations Without additional funding, Lynch warned, HEW would have to recalculate more than a million financial aid packages which had already been figured on the basis of full basic grants. And worse. Lynch said, the Office of Education would have to try to collect some aid money already awarded this year from students who may have dropped out of school. If the basic grant money is drawn from next year’s appropriation and Ford’s budget passes as proposed, the financial aid picture for next year will be even bleaker. Ford’s budget proposal for BEOG’s is based on a possible 1.27 million students applying for the grants, or 60 percent of those students eligible to apply. But with seniors eligible to apply for the grants for the first time next year, the number of those applying will probably be far higher. If the funding for BEOG’s is not increased, next year’s students may find the maximum grants available slashed from $1400 to only $735. And if the participation rate goes up to 80 percent, which some officials think is likely, the maximum grant could be more like $680 and the average around $428. Some 3400 post-secondary institutions received their full share of grant money before the funds dried up. But until Congress acts on some additional funding for the program, the other 800 or so schools will have to decide whether they can afford to make up the promised federal funds themselves or turn away students who can’t pay their fees. Page two The Spectrum Wednesday, 18 February 1976 . . allocated to meet tuition expenses would be increased significantly, leaving the burden of tuition costs on the students themselves. The fact that tuition will be increased by at least $200 per year will make the financial problems of. the 1,130 low-income graduate students even more serious if SUS is abolished, according to Stillwell. Howard Kling, President of the Graduate Students Employees Union (GSEU), reacted with outrage to the possibility that the University’s financial crisis will be absorbed at the expense of low-income graduate students. Kling noted that the meager assistantships of graduate students would be eroded to an even greater degree should SUS money no longer be available to cover tuition expenses. Kling felt it was unfair that those least able to pay are being asked to make even greater sacrifices to absorb the budget crisis at this campus. He indicated the University seems to be headed in an “elitist direction” insofar as it is becoming extremely difficult for low-income students to obtain the graduate degrees that are so necessary to gain access into the job market. budget by Philip Moran Spectrum Staff Writer SUS funds have been an important source of financial aid to meet the tuition costs pf low-income students. Although the proposal of the Trustees does not call for . the elimination of SUS money for undergraduates, Stillwell explained that most or all djf the graduate and professional students attending this University will be affected. Stillwell noted that 555 professional students and 575 graduate students receive financial aid from SUS. The elimihation of these funds will mean the loss of approximately $1,238 000 to students of this University. Dean Andrew Holt pointed out that $317,000 of this total is used for the payment of tuition expenses for graduate and professional students with tuition waivers. Stillwell stated that his office was lobbying very hard for the preservation of SUS money for post-baccalaureate students who have Teaching Assistantships (TA’s) and tuition waivers. He expressed the fear that even students who arc TA’s might have to pay part of their tuition if the SUS is lost. This may happen because the only other sources of tuition aid will not be sufficient to meet the tuition expenses of TA’s and Graduate Assistants (GA’s) should the SUS funds not be replaced, he said. Support GSEU Kling noted that the GSEU's initial demand is the guarantee of a minimum $4,000 assistantship and a tuition waiver for every TA and GA. He urged all graduate students to support the GSEU as the only viable way for graduate students to respond to the financial crisis confronting them. the Graduate Student Spokespersons for Association (GSA) have confirmed that their organization has been working on this problem intensively in the last few weeks. The President of the GSA, Terry DiFilippo, has been to Albany to obtain more information about the possibility that SUS money will be abolished, and is expected to give a report at the next GSA meeting detailing the Outrage The other sources of financial aid that covers implications and effects of the proposal to eliminate graduate tuition expenses are the Tuition Assistance Program the SUS funds. Spokespersons urged all (TAP) and a special portion of the University budget students to attend the next GSA meeting to learn allocated to meet the tuition costs of those students more about the financial crisis facing graduate receiving tuition waivers. TAP only covers up to students and the types of responses that are $600 per year in tuition expenses for each student. necessary for graduate students to effectively fight Stillwell expressed doubt that the portion of the the budget cutbacks at this University.

Buses used by Grand Island Transit and Ridge Road Express will be replaced by the same Bluebird coaches provided before their strike last November. Busing director Roger Frieday hopes the complaints by students about inefficiency and discomfort of the buses, provided by Gradnd Island and .Ridge Road on an “emergency” basis, will become a thing of the past. Frieday said Bluebird will be back to “100 per cent service” and will be at “a peak of efficiency we can all live with.” Frieday, who schedules, coordinates and monitors bus service between the four campuses, is responsible for transporting over an average 12,000 riders daily. “I honestly feel we are providing adequate service,” he said. Problems at the beginning of the semester caused by changes in riding patterns will be ironed out after initial adjustments in service are made, Frieday indicated. Problems inevitable Frieday said any transport system that 12,000 people between four shuffles separate facilities is bound to run into problems and complaints. He feels his office is doing the best they can under the amount of confusion surrounds the buses at the beginning of the semester,” he said, but “once we find out where extra buses are circumstances. certain “A needed, we can plug them into service and alleviate the problem.” The scheduling office tries to use the same schedule every semester, and then adds more buses where they are needed. The problem is that'the addetj buses are not shown on the schedule; for example, in the case of the Ellicott to Ridge Lea run, there will be a bus scheduled at a certain time, but there might actually be several buses there to take the overload. Poor communication between the bus office and students is a large problem, according to Frieday. Students have complained of buses leaving early. Frieday said buses leave early when they are full. “There’s no point in keeping a full bus at the stop when no one else can get on it,” he said. Complaints about bus service are also a “Any complaint sent to this office will be investigated by either myself or the bus company,” Frieday said, but added that complaints sent only to The Spectrum, Student Association (SA) or other student organizations could not be dealt with by his office. He feels confident his office can handle any complaint with sufficient information. “If you have a complaint or a problem with a bus, it is essential we know the date, time and bus number.” Frieday’s office phone number is at the bottom of every bus schedule; either problem. calling or dropping a note with all the information into campus mail will get the problem to his attention. Then he said, either he or the bus company will investigate and get back to the student who made the complaint. With the help of the student Bus Committee and former committee members, Prieday said, he can monitor service and find out what’s going wrong. Prieday makes spot-checks to try to keep the buses working as efficiently as possible. He also instructs all drivers to wait two minutes past scheduled departure times to help pick up passengers whe would usually have missed the bus. “I honestly feel we have covered a in the 10 to 20 majority of trouble spots minutes after most day classes, four to eight buses leave either way to move the students.” Prieday observed Bert Black, - SA North Campus Director, agreed with Frieday’s view. “ThehusTHg situation at this campus has been improving over the last three weeks as traffic patterns have stabilized.

At the time these students were accepted to the school, they were told the program was “approved” pending and a senior. “We are told that we will be judged by schools on our individual merits alone. This may be the case at a few schools but you can’t tell me that the best schools will accept me over a person with an accredited degree, if we measure up equally in academics and field evaluation.” “The administration also tells us that if one school accepts you, you should be satisfied,” Harris continued. “This is clearly a restriction of our freedom of accreditation. However, since the school’s budget has been cut severely, the undergraduate choice and opportunity. Why shouldn’t students from this University have the assurance thaV program is being phased out. In they Could apply to top graduate addition, the school’s “approved” expired, status has and accreditation is not being sought. Undergraduate Social Work students argue that the fairly inexpensive accreditation process is vital to the professional and educational future of each of the 110 students enrolled. In 20 states no one without an accredited baccalaureate social work ’degree can be certified or granted a license to practice social work. In addition, students argue tha the chances of receiving advanced standing in a graduate school for students from a non-accredited undergraduate program are slim. schools,” she added. Students who have researched Social Work programs found that out of 85 graduate schools, 39 require that applicants have degrees accredited before receiving advanced standing, eight prefer accredited degrees, and the rest do not offer advanced Accreditation unnecessary? “The administration has told that accreditation is unnecessary,” said Theresa Harris, us standing at all. However, The Spectrum has been told that Sherman Merle, Social Work School Dean, discovered in his research of two graduate schools that individual merit is considered heavily, whereas an accredited background is not. Merle refused to direct his to comments The No blanket promises Provost of Arthur Butler, Social Sciences, supports Merle’s Emergency repair service on Wire Plastic frames Contact Lens fitting & cleaning & 1325 Millersport Highway Maple concerned Juniors in the program have been advised to transfer to with the accreditation,” Butler said. “It is true that some students will the inevitably suffer from administration’s decision not to seek accreditation.

Butler his added that it was understanding that Merle intends to write a forrq letter explaining the circumstances of the expired status approved and the University’s decision not to seek accreditation. This letter, he explained, should be sent to each graduate student’s potential school. ” another school if they want to from an accredited institution, she added. Some now argue, however, that they were accepted to this University under false pretenses. If they decide to tranfer, they fear that they will have to lose several credit hours graduate and enter as juniors. “The University was aware of the fact that SUNY Buffalo had lost its approved status as early as the winter of 1974, yet they admitted a junior class, and failed to inform them of this,” stated Donald Goldberg, legal counsel for the students, “Furthermore, 1 975, by September the University knew they were no longer seeking accrediation. Again, they failed to notify any of the students by an official memo until the winter of 1975.” “That is, they have a written ‘contract,’ they have relied on this contract, and now they are suffering detriment, due to the reliance.” Goldberg emphasized, however, that the students are first seeking reversal of Merle’s decision not to seek accreditation. The students are scheduled to meet with University President Ketter today. “If Dr. Ketter decides that he will not move to reverse Dean Merle’s decision, we will go to court,” Goldberg threatened. “If our degree does not achieve status by the an accredited Social Work Council on Education, it has no professional credibility,” Harris emphasized. “A Social Work degree without accrediation is merely a liberal arts degree, and it has no value,” professional she concluded.

The increases will amount to 10 percent in expenditures, and 7.5 percent in actual awards, according to Robert Fitzpatrick, Acting Vice President for Research. Last year the University secured approximately $19 million in expenditures and $1 1 million in awards. The University is awarded 95 percent of its research grants from various departments in the federal government, the largest portion coming from Health Education and Welfare (HEW). Fitzpatrick stated that, “$13,958,841 comes from HEW, $9 million from the National Institute of Health, and $1,127,787 from the National Science Foundation.” Money also is distributed through the Department of Defense, Energy Research Development Administration, National Aeronautics Space Administration, Department of Labor and the Department of Commerce. Other sources The other five percent of research grant money originates from private foundations, state and local governments, and industries. Asked why federal money has increased over the past year, Fitzpatrick said. There has been more research activity and it has been more successful Increases in federal grants will have no bearing, however, on the Graduate Student Employee’s Union’s (GSEU) current efforts to secure salary raises for Graduate and Teaching Assistants, “Those are state budget people, and that’s a payroll problem.” Fitzpatrick explained, “The federal research money comes from sponsors, so their problem does not lie here. If it did, either the budget has to be increased or we accept less individuals.” Budget analyzed Graduate School Dean MacAllister Hull, commenting about cuts for graduate assitance proposed in his Executive Budget, said, "We have analyzied the proposed budget cuts and we know what it means. This University has the largest grad school in the SUNY system, and it will difinitely suffer in a lot of areas if the budget is cut, especially if the State University Scholarship is cut or eliminated.” Hull said he meets with the GSEU whenever possible and he always tries to be fair.

Long-term programs 1 Short-term programs Name Address City- School State -Zip �Mail registration for voters is struck down A state law which would have allowed voter registration by mail was struck down by State Supreme Court Justice Joseph S. Mattina. The judge ruled that the law is unconstitutional because it violates a section of the state constitution, which requires personal registration in cities and villages with 5,000 inhabitants or more. Judge Mattina said he regretted striking down the law because it would have expanded the electorate. But he said he had no choice. “Any law enfranchising more people is valuable to a democratic society,” Mattina told the Buffalo Evening News. However, he explained that the state constitution can be changed only by amendment. The suit was brought by the Erie County Republican Party, which was regarded by most observers as the party most likely to suffer if the law had been validated. It is generally assumed that most of the currently unregistered voters in urban areas, if they were permitted to register by mail, would enroll with the Democratic Party, which already holds a 2—1 enrollment edge over the Republicans in Buffalo. The number of unregistered voters in Erie County is approximately 300,000. A group calling itself the Bicentennial Coalition for Voter Registration had hoped to get most of them registered through the mails. The Coalition includes the League of Women Voters, Common Cause, BUILD, the Urban League, the American Civil Liberties Union and the NAACP. In addition to the Coalition, the Buffalo AFL-CIO Council and the Democratic Party had planned a mass drive to register new voters, but their members will have to wait for the results of the planned appeal on the decision. A number of persons did register by mail between December 1, when the law went into effect, and the time when it was struck down. Those registrations were supposed to be kept separate by the Board of Elections, pending the Supreme Court decision. Anyone who registered by mail with the Erie County Board of Elections must register again, in person, in order to be eligible to vote. News analysis Colleges might be squeezed Editor’s Note: This is the first in a series of articles on the recently released report of the President's Committee on Academic Planning. by Mike McGuire Campus Editor This University might well be a different institution in the near future if the report of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning released last.week is followed strictly. The Colleges would not be able to offer courses for credit, although they would exist in name, as ‘‘social and intellectual loci” for students. If the report does not meet with strong objection by the Faculty Senate and is approved in its entirety by President Robert Ketter, the recent this a University trends toward making graduate/professional center with strong biases toward the sciences and technical subjects will gain momentum, at some expense to undergraduate studies and less technical areas. At a soon to be scheduled meeting between Ketter and the “voting membership” of the Faculty Senate, members will presumably tell the President their reactions to the report. ( Grim task The Academic Planning Committee was appointed by Ketter in September, and charged with evaluating nearly every aspect of academics at the University. In its report, the committee called for (Black Studies, abolishing three departments Biophysical Sciences and Social, Historical and Philosophical Foundations) and two of the Colleges (Tolstoy and Social Sciences), ending credit-bearing courses in the Colleges, merging some programs and departments, and a phasing out of a number of centers and institutes. The report alludes several times to the enormity of the committee’s task and the little time members had to complete it. The hastiness with which the committee acted shows up on several occasions in the report when criticisms of a program are listed with only a meek conclusion that it should be maintained at its current financial level. The committee also measured the Colleges against their pre-chartering aims, despite the fact that this changed markedly during the chartering process. Bewildered Two of the programs marked for elimination were so chosen because the committee said it had little information on the program. Apparently, the committee did not gather many facts on Social Sciences or Tolstoy Colleges, since they were judged on grounds rejected earlier by the Colleges Chartering Committee. Puerto Rican Studies, which naturally caters to Puerto Rican students, was criticized on the grounds that it served a “narrow clientele.” While the Colleges Chartering Committee worked hard to evaluate the Colleges fairly, the Academic Planning Committee seems bewildered by the refusal of the Colleges to act like departments. The committee referred several times to allegedly questionable qualifications of Colleges’ instructors who were not drawn from regular departments. The committee referred to a particular center as a “low-cost operation which generates considerable visibility for the University,” Nowhere in the evaluation of that particular program is there any reference to what the center does or its quality. There were long overdue recommendations in the report, mostly concerning consolidation of certain programs that have similar thrusts and subject matter. The report called for a committee to study the Health Sciences programs, since Academic Planning members admitted they lacked the specialized knowledge needed to evaluate clinical programs. However, they specifically called for non-experts to serve on the committee to provide fresh insights. Surprise evaluation ■ A mild surprise came when the committee wrote on Women’s Studies a highly laudatory report College, which has been an object of attack by the administration in the past. The committee essentially agreed with the external evaluations of the program which have referred to its national reputation. This will have important implications in any future debate over Women’s Studies. In all likelihood, however, the report will be mulled over by the Faculty Senate and Ketter and will not go into effect in its present form. While the committee has indeed labored hard under a difficult charge and made some important recommendations, there are serious gaps in its information. These gaps will have to be filled before any realistic consideration of this University’s programs can be carried out, and hopefully the meeting with Ketter will be the first step in completing an inconclusive effort. • WbtN am/Fm/tv an<1 rlit Wm.Henoerer co.

Page five �Appealing to the Trustees Editor's Note: The following letter, dated February 11, 1976 was sent by former Student Association President Frank Jackalone to Mrs. Maurice Moore, Chairman of the SUNY Board of Trustees. It concerns ensured student participation in planning the Parcel B commercial complex on the Amherst Callous maneuver Campus. Dear Mrs. Moore: To the Editor. I am writing to you as the past president of the Student Association at SUNY Buffalo, and a current the Physics Department’s crude method in dismissing member of the Executive Committee of the Student appears Beth Dr. Eric Beth as course instructor. Dr. of the State University of New York. Assembly to have been the victim of departmental politics, The main intent of this letter is to refer you to which has achieved its ends by using the students as the proposed contract concerning “Parcel B” on its means. Dr. Beth was informed only four days before SUNYAB’s Amherst campus between State classes resumed that he was to be the course University and the UFB foundation, Inc. A preface, instructor. The students, dissatisfied with this however, should be included. During my tenure as Student Association sudden switch, were encouraged by the chairman of with which I the department to submit petitions stating that Dr. President at SUNYAB, the students channeling their primarily worked were was lecturer and should Beth an incompetent therefore be replaced. After three weeks of “serious extracurricular constructive energies toward deliberation,” Dr. Beth was dismissed, and the developing student services on campus. The campus administration at the time was fully supportive of previous instructor of Physics 113 reinstated. This manuever was executed in a callous manner our programs, and the campus community the gained by that disregarded both Dr. Beth’s personal integrity as considered the experience a human being, and also the students’ needs. The participating students to be of the highest Physics Department has offered no explanation for educational value. Over the past few months, however. Dr. Robert its action and appears unwilling to do so. It is quite president of SUNYAB, has made a complete Ketter, political differences evident that interdepartmental his take priority over human feelings and quality reversal of the favorable position that he and and explicitly expressed to me and implicitly staff education. In the words of Albert Einstein, “The highest other students last year. One by one, many student services have been questioned and even threatened as religion is the service of humanity.” to the right of existence on campus and the ability Arlene Kopolsky to be operated and managed by students. The net effect is that the previous constructive energy of these students is now being channeled into growing, open hostility. Indeed, even the apathetic students of the past are now visibly angry. The current threat to student services on my campus is projected into the future by the debate that is taking place over Parcel B. It has been To the Editor. mentioned in discussions that Parcel B should be “commercially operated,” and that those businesses This is in reply to your editorial wherein you defend the existence of Tolstoy and Social Sciences which have already “contracted” UBF would have first preference over student-operated services. Most Colleges by appealing to “academic freedom,” importantly, it has been suggested (and I am addition to a well-worn cliche, is, being which, in when pushed to extremes, a thoroughly ridiculous tempted to use the word “demanded”) that there shall be no student services located in other, notion. No one in his right mind would justify a state-operated facilities on the campus which shall “compete” with those business concerns in Parcel B. geography professor teaching that the earth is flat or an astronomy professor teaching that the earth is the I’m sure that you are aware of the SUNYAB students’ request for student membership on the center of the solar system by appealing to academic frfeedom. Yet this is what is constantly done in the UBF Foundation Board of Directors. 1 think I can speak for those student representatives as well as fields of philosophy, politics, et. al. The presumption seems to be that truth does not exist in these fields myself by stating that this request is being made (or is at least not discoverable). The point becomes: why bother having such departments at all? Also, isn’t the appeal to academic freedom itself an appeal to some objective truth? It comes down to this. All societies and all individuals accept certain things as self-evident. Our society is based on certain notions that are incompatible with the indoctrination going on in the two aforementioned colleges. This University, an To the Editor. institution supported by the state, has a moral obligation to drain these left-wing fever swamps. In We’d like to alert our fellow students to a the happy event that this occurs, the administration disturbing situation in this University and hopefully not such should be commended, condemned. In fact, save anyone else from the same predicament. action is long, long overdue. At the beginning of this semester we registered for a Shakespeare course with Dr. Charles Mitchell. Stuart Gudowitz From his course description we were led to believe it was going to be a “conceptual and psychological” approach. What we found, instead, was blatant sexism and teaching incompetency no learning. Instead of discussion or even intelligent lecture we encountered a constant and unending harangue about the destructive, low bestial and vile qualities of women. Not only was this presented in an Vol. 26, No. 57 Wednesday, 18 February 1976 As a student of Physics 114, I am appalled at Left-wing fever swamps with the knowledge and appreciation of the Trustees’ prior decision to strengthen representation on the Faculty-Student Associations and in their warm reception toward the student representative on the Board of Trustees. In this light, 1 respectfully urge the Trustees to provide a contract which would require at least one-third student membership on the Board of UBF Foundation. This proposal and, indeed, the whole situation, is exactly analogous to the Trustees’ new regulations governing Faculty-Student Associations. Both the FSA and Parcel B provide campus services which intend to benefit members of the university community, of which students make up the vast majority. It is apparent that the Trustees have seen the need for students to be well represented on the campus FSAs. Without detailing the many problems which have faced us in our efforts to ensure adequate student participation in the decision-making process of that essentially student service corporation, let it suffice to say that we have continually faced greater barriers and discouragement than nearly any campus across the state. Even now, after much conflict, we are barely in compliance with the minimum standard for student representation on our FSA Board as adopted by the Trustees in December, 1975. I report this only to point out to you the urgency of our problem with regard to the development of Parcel B. Our unfortunate past gives us no sense of assurance that the pre-concieved attitudes toward student involvement in determining the priorities of student services will be any less paternalistic in this case. Ironically, it is our campus which provides the best example of how students, through an entirely student-controlled corporation, can responsibly and ably meet the many diverse and complicated needs of 27,000 students, ranging from daily movies to comprehensive health services. Sub-Board 1, Inc. has been in operation for over 5 years now, and has continually shown that it can accountably manage its financial operations which gross in excess of one million dollars per year. With these thoughts deeply embedded in our minds, I believe that the only responsible solution now lies in your hands. Clearly, without the adoption of the above proposal, the situation at SUNYAB has no real hope of resolution. Without student participation, I think that it is fair to say that SUNY Buffalo students would firmly oppose the further development of Parcel B. 1 have confidence, however, that the Board’s past sincerity and concern for students’ needs and contributions will be maintained in this case as well. I truly thank you for your consideration Sincerely, Frank L. Jackalone Reading into Shakespeare — The Spectrum Editor-in-Chief — offensive and vulgar manner, but it was difficult to tell if this was William Shakespeare or Charlie Mitchell talking. Certainly there are biased, bawdy attitudes in Shakespeare, but this man (Mitchell] is obsessed by the ideas, presents them in a narrow and vicious manner and has not changed with the world in the last 400 years. We’d like to warn prospective students who don’t get their rocks off on listening to this kind of bullshit to stay away from Charlie Mitchell’s class.

The topic of this letter concerns our auxiliary student union, namely the UGL. During my last visit, I was tooling away in an attempt to memorize the structures of 20 amino acids, four nucleotides and 28 carbohydrates. In the midst of the usual background clamor there was an exceptionally loud conversation as to who is the worst guard in the NBA. Being almost certain that even Walt Frazier doesn’t know the configuration of 20 amino acids, four nucleotides and 28 carbohydrates, I asked the gentlemen if there could be some quiet and if Norton wouldn’t be a better place to carry on such a causerie. I was then informed that Norton would not indeed be the ideal place to talk and that if I wanted to study, I should go to Lockwood. I quickly apologized and thanked the gentlemen for apprising me of the proper procedures. From now on I’ll study in Norton Union. M. Rosebud This letter is in response to Mike Cray’s letter printed in The Spectrum Monday, February 9. Mr. Cray says that he is sad that he “can’t afford college now.” The thing that makes me sad is that someone in, as I compiite, his mid-twenties has such a negative attitude toward the world. I can only hope that perhaps Mr. Cray wrote the letter in a fit of although that hardly seems possible frustration' since he is taking a very drastic step by leaving - school. Mr. Cray also stated that one of his greatest problems in life “has always been an absurd propensity for placing more importance on a human being’s happiness and ability to interst with the world than on things which bear titles.” If this is so, it would seem that he should not let these titles (“Vice President for Facilities Planning,” “School of Business and Management” ..) affect his attitudes. They are only titles, perhaps confusing and misleading at times, but certainly nothing over which . to lose sleep. Perhaps if all the negative thinkers, such as Mr. Cray, leave this University, there will be more room which I have found is for those who come to learn quite simple if one puts his mind to it. Mr. Cray would probably call me naive, but 1 have always been under the impression that college is a place one goes to further his knowledge and is not intended as a soap box for frustrated public speakers. — Pamela Camming The Lebanese situation To the Editor. The people of the Lebanon will never forget the strength with which the Western democratic powers in the world (especially the USA) forced the Syrian Arab Republic to leave its neighbor alone. Now there is peace where before there was bloodshed. No longer will the peaceful Lebanese have to worry about international gangsters like the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) endangering Lebanese security by invading other states using Lebanon as a home base. Now the PLO will be subject to the same laws that all residents of Lebanon are subject to, instead of being able to make up their own. It was because of strong Western Christian support that the Lebanon is once more safe for all of its citizens. This is the way people should be speaking of the current Lebanese situation; that pressures from the West (primarily the USA) kept Syria from taking over the world’s only Arab democracy and turning it into another Arab Moslem dictatorship. It should have been that way. One should be able to assume that if the Western, democratic, Christian countries were to do nothing else, they would protect the integrity of other Christian countries instead of watching them sink in seas of blood. One should be able to assume that the Pope, if he did nothing else, would raise the strongest possible outcry at the wanton slaughter of innocent Christians. Instead, we have been treated to a show of what Western civilization is really all about. We have watched helplessly as the Arab world’s most civilized, only Christian country has become a mere puppet of a deadly coalition of Moslem expansionist Syria and the /Palestinian terrorists. Since 1 am a Jew, it has been very interesting for me to watch this amazing show of Christian brotherhood in action. It has all become clear to me. From the beginning, the Lebanese Christians did not stand a chance. The religious war that was taking its deadly toll of innocent civilians was not that important to Western interests. The only thing that was important to the West was that Israel stay out of the conflict. The apparent openness on the part of the Syrians in showing the world that they were arming the Moslems and Palestinians in Lebanon and as a result they were causing the conflict, greatly alarmed Israel. It realized that would possibly use Lebanon to open another front in the event of a Mid-East war. This then would have been the one and only reason for Israel to want to intervene militarily; that an enemy sworn to destroy it was attempting to gain control of more territory in order to widen its military options. The USA, that great civilized country which has sold more peoples down the river than any other country in modern history, told both Israel and Syria publicly to stay out of the conflict. Privately, the conversation probably went along the lines of the U.S. telling Israel that aid would not be forthcoming if Israel intervened, and begging Syria not to be too nasty to the Christians. This was done despite U.S. knowledge of the following facts; The Syrians were openly arming the 1. Moslems and Palestinians; The Russians were delivering highly 2. sophisticated arms to the Moslems; The Palestine Liberation Army is for all 3. intents and purposes, part of the Syrian army; 4. Israel depends upon the U.S. a great deal for its security and the U.S. has no such trump card to pull on the Syrians. It is very interesting that the only hope the Christians had was the Jewish state. It has always been a source of embarassment to the Moslems Arabs that there was, amongst all those Moslem Arab countries, two non-Moslem states; one Christian and one Jewish. Now there is only one non-Moslem state in the region. From various discussions I have had with Lebanese Christians, I have surmised the following: The major complaint on the part of the 1. Christians of Lebanon was that they were forced to play nursemaid to the Palestinian terrorists while these terrorists endangered Lebanese security by carrying on a war with Israeli children. Lebanon will now become a Moslem state 2. with the Christians being a persecuted minority, like all other non-Moslems in the Arab world. I see now, that while all so-called “progressive” forces in the world call the conflict in the Lebanon a class war, it is really a religious war which is aimed at the Moslem domination of a previously independent national group. The U.S. government recently lauded the Syrians for their peacemaking efforts in Lebanon. The U.S. should also laud the Iraqis for ridding the world of the meddlesome Kurds, or they should congratulate the Sudanese Arabs for murdering tens of thousands of Black Southern Sudanese.

Prince Wednesday, 18 February 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �Wrestlers comeback against Cleveland State falls short ■ by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer The wrestling Bulls completed their 1975-76 regular season dual match competition last Saturday by losing a squeaker to Cleveland State 17-15. Unquestionably the most exciting and frustrating match of the season,' the Bulls literally wrestled to the last possible second for a victory, but unfortunately came up empty handed. Closing its regular season with a record of nine wins and eight losses, Buffalo has once again posted a winning season. But losing to Cleveland State in the seasonal finale was not in the Bulls’ plans. The Bulls started the day off with freshman Tony Oliveri losing his decision. Next, Ray Pfeifer brought the Bulls back with a strong win. Swimmer Ted Brenner and diver Keil Wurl each broke two school records last week against Fredonia. Yet this week's Athlete of the Week goes to another swimmer, sophomore George Finelli. Finelli didn't break any records last week, but he did swim one leg of the Bulls' victorious 400 yard relay. He also won the 200 yard Butterfly, and therein lies his brilliant success. Finelli beat out Fredonia's Bob Gonzenbach, an All-American who had never before been defeated.

The major obstacle in the Bulls’ attempt at victory was official Wright. His laissez-faire policy of officiating cost the Bulls close decisions, while Drasgow handed his Viking counterpart a shutout. With two matches remaining, the Bulls were down 14—12. the first of those was the fiercest match of the day. Part-timer Rich Bopp, who responded last week with a victory, came through again with another victory. Although Bopp put the Bulls ahead 15-14, he had to overcome overwhelming odds. the match and gave coach F.d Michael a lot of heartaches. “1 thought the officiating was deplorable,” said Michael. In each of the matches invovling Tundo, Martinech, Drasgow and Bopp, the Vikings stalled throughout each match but it was quite rare to see it called by Wright. Although victorious. Viking coach Dick Bonacci admitted that the officiating was not of good Viking wrestler Tony Stabile obviously had one tremendous talent, that of being the dirtiest wrestler the Bulls have faced this year. On six occasions, Bopp received “cheap” shots from his Viking opponent. Somewhere in his career. Stabile went astray losing sight of the difference between fighting and quality. But right now, Michael and the Bulls don’t have to worry about the area’s officiating since post season play is upon them. This week the Bulls will be at Oswego wrestling. While out of bounds, Bopp landed on his head twice, his shoulder once and went sprawling off the mat on the other three occasions Yet through it all, official Wright continued to do what he had done since the match nothing. But Stabile’s began State for the Invitations New York State Tournament, competing against 25 top schools in New York State.

Millions more, every year, drift away from faith altogether. If you believe in the power of the Gospel of Jesus and think His Gospel still has something to offer America, then maybe you should investigate the Paulist way of life. The Paulists are a small community of Catholic priests who have been bringing the Gospel of Jesus to the American People in innovative ways for over 100 years.

Instead, they left nearly broken Johnny Moore to clinch the hearted, as they were only, able to victory for the Bulls. Moore, named the game’s first star, split the series with the Lakers, winning the opener 7-6, but stopped 40 shots in the contest, including 16 in the second period dropping the second game 9-4. when Oswego had six power play A sweep over the Osw$gonians opportunities. practically have assured the would Per haps the biggest save of the Bulls a spit in the ECAC Division must came late in the third night butthey playoffs, now II after Moore when, depend on Oswego in order to period, sneak in the back door. If the stopped two point blank shots, Lakers have difficulty with their the puck slid to the slot to Laker remaining Division 11 games, then defenseman Dan Ane who ripped the Bulls may be able to edge in, a slapper towards the Buffalo based upon their 9—4—1 Division cage. But Moore’s best friend, the II record. “We can’t be ruled out goalpost, stopped this one, and yet,” said Buffalo head coach Ed preserved the Bulls’ win. “Hey, Wright. “Our chances hinge on that was lucky for me. The what Oswego does with their goalpost is part of the goalie’s equipment,” laughed the chunky netminder afterwards. The Bulls had jumped to an early 3—0 lead before ' Ray* Seeback, a man who would haunt them later, scored for Oswego to end the first period. The game’s middle stanza was a comedy of errors on the part of the officials, who called nine penalties in the period, six on the Bulls. The calls led to four power play tallies in the second period. “Look at the types of penalties they’re calling; elbowing and were interference. If we aggressive, we probably would have spent the whole night in the box,” said Wright after the game. Gruarin nets winner Ray “Toughie” Gruarin scored the winner for the Bulls at 13:37 of the final period when he took a Bill Busch pass and deposited it behind goalie Steve Paluseo, who seemed bewildered for much of the game. The play originated on the right side, where Busch fed the puck to his lanky center, Gruarin, who broke in on the net with Tommy Haywood on his left side. Paluseo braced himself for a hard shot, so Gruarin slipped the puck —Vazquez skaters away from the crease, as in each case, the man in front took a quick pass and slammed it home. ‘They came out in high gear before we could slow it up,” said Coach Wright. “In a game like this you’d better find some way to slow them down.” The Bulls didn’t. The Great Lakers buzzed around the Buffalo cage en masse, and kept Moore active all day long. In particular, little Ray Seeback proved to be a thorn in the Bulls’ side, as he bagged four goals and set up another. The shifty center scored the winner in the second period when he fired a 20 foot screen shot past Moore’s outstretched Oswego the ice into the cage. “I just used Haywood as a pick. The defenseman went with him, so I just walked in,” said Gruarin. “It was an easy shot, and Billy Busch gave me a real nice pass.” It was one of the last nice the Bulls did for things themselves, as the Great Lakers reversed roles on Saturday, and completely swamped the Buffalo squad. The Bulls found themselves down 4-0 after less than ten and a half minutes, and were never able to dig themselves out of the along hole. t‘ All four goals were scored from directly in front of Moore, who was a sitting duck in the Buffalo net. Each goal was a result of the clearing ineptitude at Bulls’ glove. As the third period began, it appeared that the Bulls might be able to rally from a 5—3 deficity the heels of Eddit Patterson’s late goal in the second period. Patterson broke in one a on four-on-one break and surprisingly drilled one behind 0S goalie John Fowler, ignoring his teammates. “1 just shot. 1 don’t really know why,” commented the frosh center. “1 was pissed off so I shot.” “1 thought Eddie Patterson’sgoal would do it for us,” said Wright regarding a possible change in momentum. “But that quick third period penalty [to Tom Haywood) and quick goal [by John Silver] spelled doom for * In Concert UP CLEAN 8 WIN *1000!

It was a bad game for us overall.” The Bulls now have to hope that Oswego has some bad games enabling Buffalo to reach the playoffs. 1375 Millersport Hwy.

The Academic Planning Committee, appointed in September by President by Graduate Robert Ketter, and Professional Education Dean McAllister Hull and History Department chairman Clifton K. Yearley, and had" three students among its sixteen members. The report, printed in its entirety in yesterday’s Reporter, called for closing down Tolstoy College (College F). Social Sciences College, the Department of Biophysical Sciences, the Department of Social, Historical and Philosophical Foundations of Education and the Black Studies Department. In addition, the report recommends elimination of the Social Science Research Institute, the Center for International Conflict Studies, and the Cneter for Educational Research. The School of Information and Library Science (S1LS) was targeted for scaling down, largely due to an allegedly poor employment record for its graduates. rtmi-iMM The committee , also suggested consolidations or mergers for department* and P******™ **f!5! ■-7® 1 *" other department _ ?- c-5— medial fM| n: PuiLiu.jjiiu y ’ Flectrical Chemical JSSTSLn.

The School of Among these were College B, Cora P. Maloney College, the Center for Media Studies, the MS program in Social and Preventive Medicine, Occupational Therapy, and Engineering Science. In many departments and programs, the committee called for however, maintenance of support at their present level. In the Department of Music, the committee proposed increasing the number of faculty after current administrative and academic problems ate solved, in both the French Department and the Department of German and Slavic Languages, the committee called for a “revitalization” as a condition for maintenance at current levels. Under the committee proposal, the Departments of Statistics and Statistical Science would be merged, as would the Departments of Higher Education and Educational Administration, and the Pharmacology of and Department and Biochemical Therapeutics Pharmacology. Also proposed for merger is Faculty-Wide Major program and the the Master of Science in Social Sciences program, both offered through the Faculty of Social Sciences and Administration. Libraries and computers While not making any specific recommendations, the committee suggested a consolidation among the Departments of Curriculum, Instruction, and Teacher Education and the Center for Curriculum Development. The committee also called for some consolidation among the Department of Elementary and Remedial Education, the Department’s Laboratory School, the Reading Center, College has “an budget,” support said the apparently high committee, which funds similar courses offered elsewhere in the University. The committee also cited % slight decrease in it emoUments u. the College » a reason A according to' the committee, would normally be rated “adequate.” However, overall unit cost is high and the need for the program is “not established.” with the level of scholarship too low to overcome these deficiencies, according to the report. Departments(toanaedt Incoherent collegians The committee said Tolstoy College courses “appear incoherent, mixed, and duplicative of offerings elsewhere in the University; its overall purposes are too broad to evidence substance or solid intellectuality; there is little evidence of The committee said it Inched' information on quality control df Social Sciences faculty and courses, any external emlnations of the College, and “resource efficiency.” One committee member, in fact, abstained from voting on the College due to lack of mformation NO accomstabflity? The committee criticized the Puerto Rican Studies program, offered through the American Studies Department, for alleged lack of accountability to the University. According to the committee report, the program is located principally in San Juan. Puerto Rico, and is relatively expensive to run. Again, however, the committee said there was a lack of solid information on which to base an evaluation. The committee also criticized the “narrowness of clientele” served by the program, apparently since they ate predominantly Puerto Rican. The committee did not elaborate on this statement, however Social, Historical and Philosophical Foundations Department was criticized by the committee for a low number of majors and a lack of faculty publication activity. The committee suggested transferring the courae* to some “department offering work in the basic dinapline” (premrmably within the Faculty of Educational Studies), The committee also attacked allegedly low levels of faculty publishing in the Black Studies Department, as well as declining enrollments. The committee said it is an expensive program to run, and it will be down to four faculty members after this year. The committee cited a statement by the Provost of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Administration that the program drank! either be “abolished or reinforced. The committee recommended transferring faculty to other departments and for making Black Studies part of area concentrations in the Faculty-Wide Major giant colossus unmoved by democratic will. Beside them. King Geoige 111 appeals a petty tyrant.” The PBC notes that big business has made an aO-out effort to push the Bicentennial, assisted by the government. It points out that the official “American Revolution Bicentennial Administration” endorsed a national convention for businessmen, which was designed to instruct them in how to make money on the Bicentennial. Drawing parallels between the Revolutionary war period and today’s United States, the PBC includes a quote from the 1776 Connecticut Price-Fixing Commission: “The rapid and' exorbitant rise upon the necessities and conveniences of life is chiefly occasioned by monopolizers, that great pest of society, who prefer their own private gain to the interest and safety of their country.” With this in mind, the PBC says it is time to take a look at “what the giant corporations have done to our democratic rights.” Opposition to the PBC has surfaced recently in a column by Bill Anderson of the Chicago Tribune which characterized the PBC as a “slick” organization which makes unwarranted attacks upon corporations and establishment politicians, and plays upon “the misgivings of the young, the poorand the old.” Anderson claims that the PBC is espousing a series _of “slippery partial-truths” about the American economic system, while at the same time it uses foundation grants and sells its books through the capitalist system. He also raises the specter of “radical terrorists” disrupting the schedule Bicentennial celebrations this summer, and notes that extra police protection has already been planned, but he offers no evidence that the PBC has advocated violence, or has supported any group which does. The PBC has announced plans for a mass economic rally of 250j000 Americans in Washington, DC., but sees it as an alternative to the White House festivities not as a disruption, or an occasion for riot. Support for the PBC has come from various sources, including consumei advocate Ralph Nader, the clergy, the electronic media, fanners, and both ends ol the political spectrum. James J. Kilpatrick, a columnist who is usually noted for his conservative outlook. echoed the general feeling expressed in a New York Times editorial when he wrote, “PBC is a lot closer to the true spirit of ’76 than the promoters, politicians, and public relations men in charge of the (White House) commission.” The committee said that two problems departments and confronting many programs were a lack of support" services from the libraries and Computer Center. It recommended substantial increases in services from both entities, with increased funding if necessary. In calling for phasing out the School of Architecture and Environmental Design, the committee noted that aspirations of the school were too loosely tied to perfromance to be realistic,” Presently, the school has 9.9S faculty lines. The Dean, however, has asked for 42.5 new lines. The committee proposed that the school be abandoned rather than “ expanded. Social Sciences - .. .. „ _ “* - program. PBG to glorify spirit of revolution during year by Pat Quintan City Editor As die celebrated Bicentennial year unfolds, there is a storm brewing over the proper way to observe it. On one hand, big business and the federal government regard the Bicentennial as an occasion for makmg a few bocks and waving the flag. The people’s Bicentennial Commission (PBC). on the other hand, is a group of citizens who strongly believe that the Bicentennial should commemorate, not the glory of die corporation, but the revolutionary spirit which made this country what it is today. Speaking for die PBC, Ramsey Clark stated that, “Today, giant corporations dwarf our states in wealth, power and employment. Together, they dwarf our Union of States. Multinational corporations bestride the world like some , �V-v udget hikes Dorm residents to pay their share by Steve MUigram spectrum Staff Writer •* ? .- - ' ' - __ Dormitory "rental fees will increase approximately S100 per student in a double room beginning next year, with 'proportional increases for students living on North Campus, under Governor Carey’s proposed state budget-A cutback in services for dorm residents is also a possibility.

According Aptheker, to Professor Sandweiss of Davidson College contacted hirti early last year about teaching a semester course on W.E.B. DuBois, the great black American scholar and Apparently social activist. Aptheker was selected to teach the course because of his expertise on DuBois’ life and Work. Aptheker was selected -by DuBois in 1946 to edit his voluminous letters and works. Aptheker contacted Sandweiss in October for further instructions concerning his course, since it was scheduled to begiirin January. In the Daily World Aptheker writes that Sandweiss stated, at that time, that “opposition to the appointment” had appeared from members of Yale’s History Department, but that the “nature of their opposition was not disclosed.” v Apparently, sponsorship is required from one department to hold college courses, and the Political Science Department A assumed this Committee for the DuBois Seminar was set up at Yale and 1200 signatures of support were collected within one or two days. ; , Anyone wishing to be a Candidate for office in Student Assoc, election in late Feb." pick up a petition in the S.A. office, 205 Norton. \ - S Inter ■ '•W, Petitions are due Feb. 13th when a mandatory meeting of ell candidates will be held.

But Apthekcr told the Yale Daily News, “I had nothing to hide,” and suggested he was the victim of a kind of “genteel McCarthyism with overdoses of libel.” Charging flagrant “violation of elementary concepts of academic freedom,” Aptheker said: “I absolutely demand that this evidence be made public so that I can have the opportunity of refuting it.” Sandweiss stated that as far as he knows this action was unprecedented in Yale’s history. LaPalombara wrote that “prave questions” of “freedom of inquiry” are raised by this tase, even though “I don’t particularly admire Aptheker or his writings.” LaPalombara- concluded: “I believe Aptheker is entitled to more substantive due process than he has thus far been accorded.” Aptheker received his Phd in history from Columbia in 1943, has published over thirty volumes and contributed to all the leading journals in his field. He was twice awarded prizes by the Association for the Study of Afro-American was a Guggenheim History, Fellow, and is the editor of The Collected Works of DuBois, being published in 40 volumes by Kraus-Thompson Corporation. The Yale College Council blasted the rejection of the Aptheker seminat as “deplorable” and passed a resolution urging the apprpval of the course. Lemisch, Jesse Associate Professor of American Studies at the State University at Buffalo, wrote a' letter to Dr. Mack Thompson, Executive Director of American Historical as well as to at universities across the J historians 9 bring country, to to their attention Aptheker’s case. £ Lemisch wrote; “I thought the A time was past when professional ethics allowed the rejection of • candidates for reasons which W could not be publicly stated.” 9 Lemisch quoted from section 16 of the Association’s “Statement £ of Professional Standards,” that a rejected candidate persists in W seeking a written statement of the 9 reasons for non-appointment, that £ Jt is recommended that it be a the Association, 9 Still time to sign up!!

LaPalombara explains that at a meeting of the Board of Permanent Officers, made up of about 40 tenured Professors, that “Aptheker’s credentials were subjected to a degree of.scrutiny that is unusual even in the case of senior appointments.” Aptheker writes that rumors of “scandolous” accusations have reached him, but he hasn’t been able to learn any details.

Increase defended Thomas Schillo, Assistant Vice President for Finance and Management, reported that the' Dormitory Income fund, which comes from resident hall rental fees, has been falling short for the past several years. primarily due to hikes in the interest rates paid on the bonds and the rising cost of running the dorms. Snyder defended the dorm rate increase. Rates for rooms in the residence halls haven’t increased in five years, while rates for off-campus housing have been going up continually,, generally due to the geometric increase in utility costs.” Both Snyder and Schillo believe that the increased dorm rents will not discourage students from living on-campus. Schillo said that housing still rpojects an increase in the number of students requesting space in the residence halls, and that they are prepared to open Spaulding Quad in the Ellicott Complex if additional space is needed. Snyder observed that there will be even fewer opportunities .for students to live off-campus as the University makes the transition to the Amherst Campus Raghavan .

Ellicott register burglarized Campus Security confirmed Wednesday that $2458 in register receipts were stolen from a safe in the Ellicott Student Club last weekend. Refusing to disclose any specifics about the theft investigation, Security Director Patrick Glennon reported that no leads have been uncovered as yet. Donald Bozek, Assistant Director of Food Service, said six staff members, including himself, were interviewed by Campus Security on Tuesday and Wednesday. Three of those questioned had contact with the stolen money, and three others knew the safe combination. Bozek declined to comment on how the safe was opened, however. He was reluctant to release any further information for fear of jeopardizing the investigation. Incriminating remark Commenting on a report that Food Service - executives were unhappy with the way Campus Security was conducting the inquiry, Bozek said one Security officer made a personal and incriminating comment which should not have been expressed. On the whole, he feels the investigation has been run satisfactorily. * This is the first time Food Service has experienced a burgulary of such a large sum. Thefts have been curbed due. to a tight control of cash flow Bozek said. The exact time of the theft has not been ascertained. The money wasn’t discovered missing until 3 p.m. Monday afternoon, and Bozek wasn’t informed until 8 p.m. that day. Campus Security first heard the news Tuesday morning. A full account of the burgulary will be available after the inquiry is concluded and the incident is reported to the insurance company.

The frosty rooms have been slated for rehabilitation work, according to Harold Hirsch, Project Manager for the Dormitory Authority in the Buffalo area. The project involves the installation,of additionalradiators in these rooms, Htrspb said, adding that the word would probably begin within three weeks. The problem of insufGcent heat in student rooms was first reported in the 1974-75 school year, according to University Housing Director Maddison Boyce. A list of the uncomfortable rooms was compiled at that time by Custodial Services and reported to the Dormitory Authority, Boyce said. Boyce said it was Housing’s understanding that repairs in these rooms would be made before winter but they learned in early Fall that due to budgetary problems, the work would not take place on schedule. If Housing learns between now and the end of this summer that the problem has not been corrected, they liaye contingent plans to Boyce said. close any room with a verified heating Jacob Clickman, Inter Residence Council (IRC) Executive Vice President said that IRC will be working for a pro-rated rent reduction for those students with valid heating complaints. At the present time there is no plan for providing rebates, according to Boyce. Boyce said two reasons for not providing rebates, were that there is still a five percent rent reduction for living at EUicott and that this problem occurs on relatively few days during the school year. A letter was sent to students occupying rooms that were reported cold last year, telling them there was a problem in these rooms and offering to move them to a different room. According to Boyce no one asked for a room change after receiving this letter. Temporary housing has been offered in unoccupied, warm rooms for students in cold rooms, Boyce said, but only two people have made arrangements for such rooms. Make planners pay Glickman felt that this temporary solution could have been handled differently. According to Glickman few people received notice of this offer. He added that the area office was not open at night, so many students who desired these temporary changes could not have arranged them. Glickman felt that “plug-in” heaters should have been supplied, but he' was told by the Housing Office that they would be too expensive as a temporary solution. Boyce said that the problem had been magnified this winter due to the severe weather conditions. Many of the cold rooms face the prevailing westerly winds, he added. The Housing Office is trying to apply this knowledge to the presently unoccupied space at the Ellicott Complex so that this problem does not occur in the future, Boyce said. Hirsch felt that there were some mistakes in the design of Ellicott. The Dormitory Authority would attempt to charge those firms for this, he said, adding that engineers should have been aware of the wind problem when the complex was being planned. ’ r •-sf. t FEE WAIVERS for Mandatory Activity Fee are due by NOON!

However, no effort to increase ROTC programs in this main source of black military leadership has been made by the Pentagon. The Army has instituted a “scholarship incentive program,” in which schools that recruit greater numbers of blacks into ROTC programs are granted scholarships for the coming year. But there is no guarantee that these scholarships will be awarded to blacks. Blacks, being economically disadvantaged in general, often do not have the resources to enter college without substantial scholarship support. Yet- in 1975, only two percent of ROTC’s four-year scholarships were held by blacks, according to the Army’s Ad He General Officers Steering Committee on Equal Opportunity report. The report explained this low figure very simply; Few blacks appoied for the scholarships and blacks did not tend to score well on SATs and ACT*. The army stated that these academic tests are, in fact, the single most important factor in the award-granting process. But the report did not raise any question as to why blacks did not apply and why they did not score well on tests, even though there has been much evidence that such academic tests are prejudiced against The Army report recommended that “the present practice continue.” That same Army report encouraged tokenism as an approach to sojving minority problems in the military, in the view of the study by the Center for National Security Studies. The Army report recommended continuation of a policy which would place minority and women officers in “high visibility assignments.” The Army claims that the practice is an aid in “motivating” other minority and female personnel who will see “their own kind” in these visible positions and realize that they too can make it to the top.

I made friendships that were more intense than I would have imagined. It was really amazing,” said Paula Teitelbaum, one of three members of the Russian department here to have participated in the SUNY exchange program. Teitelbaum, Diana Bahanovich and another SUNY at Buffalo student joined seven more students from other SUNY campuses for the four-month cultural exchange.. The phonetics, lexicography and literature of the Russian language, as well as cinema and translation, comprised the curriculum for the American students. A course called ‘The U.S.S.R. Today,” was also featured. Ten Russian students spent the same period in a parallel program at SUNY Albany. According to Teitelbaum and Bahanovich, the students were allowed to move freely in Moscow, and talk at will with Soviet citizens. “We went around in groups of two and three at first, but around October there was a sort of turning point and we started going out alone, u Bahanovich said. spent last fall • • Qualification To be considered for the program, a student must have completed at least three years of Russian, or the equivalent in intensive classes. Despite her educational background, Teitelbaum described her first practical encounter with the language as unnerving. “The first time you have to tell a waitress what kind of food you want, its frightening. Some people cdmpletely froze, and couldn’t even point to what they wanted. But most of us got over it pretty quickly,” she remarked. Students were granted 16 credits for the Soviet experience, and the tuition and fees were slightly higher than a regular SUNY semester would be. Another Russian exchange program, established by a coalition of several other American schools, offers a similar course but at a cost of $3,300. Additionally, each student in the SUNY program is given an allowance of 108 rubles per month, an amount described by Bahanovich as “generous.” To Teitelbaum, one of the more frightening aspects of her trip was “crossing the street. Russians drive unbelievably, pedestrians have no rights.” She added that “there are underground passages for walking, but when you cross streets above ground, you have to be really careful” Celebration Teitelbaum and Bahanovich recalled a celebration given on the eve of the anniversary of the Russian Revolution. “One of the Americans played folk songs for the Russian students, and they wouldn’t let her stop. They kept clapping, and in Russia the audience claps in unison. She must have been a little bewildered when she heard them.” Teitelbaum said that she had learned quite a bit of the language. “There’s just no other way to really learn Russian except hearing it and speaking it all the time.” She and Bahanovich suspected, however, that after a few months in the United States, they would lose some of. what they have learned. As the informal discussion ended, Teitelbaum recalled the time when a bride and groom who appeared at her door early one evening. "They walked in and said they were sorry they couldn’t invite us earlier, but would we please come down and attend their wedding. So we dropped everything and went. It was great,” she remenisced. Applications for next- fall are being accepted until February 15. Students interested in applying should contact William Hamilton, Assistant Professor in the Russian Department. �Apple in the red * i 1f • • • i Financial problems are still plaguing City of New York by Howie Gartenberg Spectrum Staff Writer funds.

That is essentially what happened to the Big Apple, but on a much larger scale. Comptroller Arthur Levitt has conducted a number of audits over the last several years, and the results have revealed numerous instances of waste and poor planning. Poor planning In past years, New York City borrowed money needlessly, planned expensive service projects which required more money than could be generated by tax revenue, and has committed itself to wasteful spending in social services. The latter problem indicates the need for a complete overhaul of such New York City institutions as the welfare system. A great number of unnecessary patronage jobs has been another source of financial trouble to New York. How did New York avoid almost certain default last year? For one, the city retirement systems agreed to lend New York large amounts of money to fund capital construction deficits. The government, federal after mandating greater budgetary responsibility, stepped in and allocated $2.3 billion over a two-year period to finance its seasonal borrowing. At present, the city is hard at work re-estimating revenues and balancing its budget. The task is monumental but people close to the inner workings of the city budget are optimistic. Hopefully this will take a little red out of the applie, and make it shine again. Friday, 13 February 1976 . The Spectrum .

Friday, 13 February 1976 for the opportunity to briefly David Seitelman’s letter in which he offered some “facts” as to why consolidation of U.B. and Buff State would be “assinine.” His first objection is that U.B. is overcrowded. If U.B. can now adequately educate a maximum of X number of students and if Buff State can educate a maximum of Y number of students, then a combined U.B., Buff State faculty could educate at least an X Y number of students (probably even more due to elimination of unnecessary duplication). Secondly, he says a bus system interconnecting the campuses would be more expensive than the savings involved. Obviously, neither Mr. Seitelman nor myself have made accurate estimations of the possible savings. respond to + However, I believe the cost of a single busline from Main Campus to the Elmwood campus would be a small fraction of the total savings. Thirdly, Mr, Seitelman says it is theoretically possible for students to take courses at either or both institutions. I ask Mr. Seitelman if he has ever taken classes at Buff State, knows anyone from U.B. who has, or any Buff State students who have taken classes at U.B. and if so, what enormous difficulty was encountered. As a parting shot Mr. Seitelman complains of anomie caused by the size of U.B. i can him many schools with larger only remind enrollments have some “student unity and school spirit” and furthermore, he presumably chose to enter U.B. rather than a smaller school because larger institutions have more to offer.

He tells of Arthur of either relative Conan Doyle's blind faith in anything supernatural as well as the enduring skepticism of Houdini and William Marriot (both scourges of phony mediums). After presenting both sides, Haining brings the reader to a kind of supernatural limbo: Houdini and and yet some Marriot disproved so much so well of what Doyle discovered, on the other hand, is compellingly inexplicable. This chapter left me feeling as if I had just eaten at Howard Johnson's: by the end of the meal I was full, yet curiously unsatisfied.

Peter Haining (Macmillan, $9.95, nonfiction, 126 pp.) The man whose spirit hath none to care for it Ghosts; .The Illustrated History — Thou and / have often seen such a one. —Epic of Gilgamesh (2000 / B.C.) In Ghosts: The Illustrated History, Peter Haining take? his readers on a long (though not particularly frightening) walk through ghostly 'history. Ghosts tells of things that go bump in the night, from Gilgamesh to the present. The text reads like a Reader's Digest condensed book: it can be burned through in about an hour. Haining tries to remain as neutral as possible, but there is no doubting he believes in ghosts; he encourages even the most skeptical reader to at least think about it. After all, he argues, if mankind has been simply fooled by ghost tales, then we have been fooled for an awfully long time about 4,000 years. Ghosts is an ideal book forjthe college student. Its text is short and there are a ipt of pictures (most of them properly spooky). The subject matter is perfect for any situation in which the reader is intoxicated or it's simply perfect for a lonely reading in a candlelit study. Haining's book deals with all aspects of the world of phantoms; ships, houses, churches, mediums, spirit photography and (with special emphasis) that college freshman of the the poltergeist.

Two more films from the controversial "UUAB Film Committee Eight" are being shown this weekend in the Norton Conference Theatre. Louis Malle's Zazie dans la Metro is showing tonight. The Little Theatre of Jean Renoir tomorrow and Sunday. Malle first attracted notice in America with his films Murmur of the Heart, and especially Lacombe, Lucien. Zazie is one of his earlier efforts, made in 1960; it's an intriguing piece of Parisian surrealism that Malle himself considers his best film. Jean Renoir is one of the "classic" directors whose recent work is among their best (John Huston and Francois Truffaut are other prominent examples). His Little Theatre is made up of three delightful, impeccably executed vignettes, beautifully modulated and controlled. And what other "theatre" would have an intermission during which Jeanne Moreau sings? If you miss the good old days of the midnight horror show, catch Vincent Price in Roger Gorman's period witch-hunt shocker The Conqueror Worm, in the Conference Theatre tonight and tomorrow at the witching hour.

Windfall is a seven-piece ensemble of talented musicians who create a high-energy atmosphere geared to a dancing crowd. The musical force of the group consists of Jim (Mij) Poulin on keyboards, organ, piano and synthesizer; Mark Dunham on guitar; Louie Carfa on bass; Jim (Spoon) Witherspoon on flute, clarinet, alto and soprano saxophones; Pete Militello on drums; and Donna McDaniel and Jimmy (Buzz) "Ahr" singing lead vocals. Poulin summarizes his training as mostly "five years of frustration." while Spoon and McDaniel had professional training in their respective fields. Dunham started guitar lessons at age 12 and eventually became a "rock star" after failing to make the NHL. He claims never having gone to music school, and admits to the status of child prodigy and all-around genius. (In the background, lead vocalist "Ahr" serenades Dunham with, 'They say you're leavmg; I hope it's true!" A fjantic call goes out for ribbons and medals.) Militello says his start came while playing on potato chip cans at the age of eight. "Last year I got a set of drums, I too was a rock star until I started playing 'funky' music," he said. Success at last After learning to play the guitar initially, Carfa switched to bass. He went on tour with Maureen McGovern but real success was elusive until his hookup with Windfall. According to Jimmy "Ahr/' Mr. Modesty, "I've been famous ever since birth." He's had no musical training, "which sometimes shows up," he adds. The group has been in existence for one and a half years, during which several musicians have dropped in and out. "We've had four drummers and two bass players," Poulin notes. "And every time we go to Florida, we lose a bass player," Ahr adds. After six weeks of frantic searching for an appropriate name, the original bass player came up with Windfall, and it has stuck ever since. People have left basically for financial reasons.. Some preferred to do something other than commercial music. "Actually the group is very personable." Dunham says. "I get along with everybody, at least for the most part. Yeah, Mart* gets along with everyone but no one gets along with Mark," he adds. In reality, the group does have disagreements, just-like any organization, but for the most part, they are very tight and friendly. "We even go bowling together," Poulin says. V* - X . ' K3G to keep it quiet," McDaniel said. "When you're playing light music, you can't really enjoy what you're doing," Ahr adds. "You're afraid you'll blow the peas off of someone's plate," said Militello. Money is a very important factor-to the group. They< prefer gigs that require five or six nights of work for a two*week period. "Three weeks is too long. You get tired of staring at the same walls. Two weeks is nice," Militello notes. Generally they stick to the Buffalo area, within a 60-mile radius. They have, however, played in St. Catherines, Ontario and in Florida. At present, they play "Disco Money Music" because that's what's happening now and that's what is in demand. "If you give people just light music they can't get into it," Ahr states. Suit themselves Sgngs are suited to- the performers' particular talents. "We try to stick to each person's range. The vocals come off much better that way," McDaniel adds.'

They are familiar with many of the request tunes, which don't vary much from "Your Mama Don't Dance" or a medlev of Beatles tunes. Interaction with the crowd is a large part of the Windfall appeal. "Jimmy is great in that department. He's a junior Don Rickies/' Dunham notes. But what comes across best is the interaction within the band itself. "Sometimes it's the only way you can do it, the only thing that might save a performance." Ahr admits. During the breaks, the band generally mingles among the audience. They are basically good-natured people who like to talk and interact with other people. "It depends on the club. If there are feelings of hostility, then we revert to the dressing room and play cards until it's time to go on again," Ahr comments.** The major complaint "Ahr" has is that the band doesn't get all of the recognition it justly deserves. "We try to get in a few instrumentals each night to given Donna and me a break, but mostly to show the band up." "People tend to focus on just what is up front. A lot of people ask me if I'm in the band, and this is after a Pictured above are the members of Windfall. Top row (left to right): Mark Dunham, Peter Militello, Jim Witherspoon: Middle row: Louie Carfa and Jim Poulin; Bottom row: Jimmy "Ahr" and Donna McDaniel. _ Nervousness doesn't play a major factor in the group's appearances. McDaniel admits to none at all before performances. Ahr says that he clams up when the audience has the attitude of "I dare you to entertain me, I defy to make me get up and dance, I'm not going to have fun so forget it." "It is really difficult to psych yourself up into a state of mind to perform when there is only one or maybe two people in the club," McDaniel remarks. She admits that many times she's hadlo pretend that she's someplace else to make it through the performance. Ungrateful dead A dead crowd is always a problem, Ahr says. "We nail them with a couple of up-tempo songs. If that doesn't work, you tell them you're taking a short pause and you go home!" 'The hardest thing I'we found about a crowd is you've finished a song, you were really into doing the tune, and there is just silence. I just can't figure it put. 1$ or if they're it just that people don't have manners just not realizing that applause is what follows, that it's .i only polite?" McDaniel asks. Windfall usually knows they are on target. There have been instances when they have come offstage feeling they had just done the worst job of their career and the owner came up to congratulate them on a truly wonderful effort. try to ( — - i< week stint," Dunham notes. Windfall does have a certain following that inquires about their future gigs in specific places. The bulk of their audience is still composed of the regulars who frequent die club in which they are playing. "Sometimes they ask the owners of the clubs when we are coming back," Poulin says. At Mean Guys East, many people have been asking about the group's next appearance. At Schony's, the management has never bothered to remove the group picture under the label "coming soon." - Off the cuff The group's work is very improvisational. At times they do forget either music or lyrics. "Donna is the best at that. She comes up with spur-of-the-moment lyrics faster than anyone I know. The lyrics have nothing to do with the song but they fit beautifully," Ahr remarks. "And when she does blow it she always makes it sound as though the band has blown it," Poulin adds. McDaniel notes that the true mark of a professional is not stopping because of a simple mistake. The most distracting thing that Windfall has encountered is people coming up to talk to them during a performance. "I've actually had someone come up to me while I'm singing and strike up a conversation," McDaniel recalls. "You're trying to do five things at once and this guy just wants to talk to you," Poulin adds. Eventually, they plan to incorporate original material. Jim Poulin has composed some numbers. "We hope everyone enjoys what we're doing and comes out to see us," Ahr says. 'They are the best at what they do," an impartial observer noted. In reality, they do what they do well; audiences have proved this fact to be true. Windfall will be playing at Schony's until February 15. followed by a five-day engagement at Patrick Henry's starting February 18. Beginning February 25, they will play for one week at The Hustle. Go down to see them they are a treat for all music lovers. — A College degree and no plans? Become a Lawyer’s Assistant and put your education to work.

Well,,the band's new album is Gimme Back My Bullets and it's really nothing more than a pistol-load of blanks. There isn't a cut here that Bad Company or BTO wouldn't have rejected and again, it is disappointing to hear such weak and uninspired material from a group with the capabilities of Lynyrd Skynyrd. Much of the album's failure must be attributed to the production that John Dowd has saddled the band with. The mixing is poor, the background vocals are lost, the selection of numbers are repetitious, and overall, the album is curiously reminiscent of (another band second-rate Allman Brothers sometimes produced by Dowd). As in all of Lynyrd Skynyrd's word, their musicianship is quite solid but relying on musical competence alone is dangerous, especially when there is hardly a lyric or guitar lick of any notable interest or distinction. Each of the nine cuts are irritatingly similar, and listened to collectively, are generally indistinguishable from one another. Allen Collins and Ronnie Van Zant collaborated on most of the album's lyrics and they're awful. Often silly and trite, the chorus to a song entitled "Double Trouble" goes something like: Henry Gross, Release (Lifesong Records) Release is a potpouri;i of the musical accomplishments of Henry Gross, a former singer with 5Q's comic-rock group She Na Na. This album is one of the premier releases on Lifesong Records, the bragd-new label formed by rock veterans Terry Cashmap and Tommy West, and it's Gross'third and most promoted product.' Nlost of the songs are rockers, with the occasional ballad thrown in for effect. Unfortunately, Henry Gross proves over and over throughout Release that he has.a long way to go if he ever plans on making it. There are simply-too many fata\ flaws with this album fgr it to go anywhere other than the cut-out racks. The most notable shortcoming lies with Gross' vocal work. He warbles in a high pitched twang Double trouble. Double trouble. Trouble double. Trouble double, T-R-O-U-B-L-E -Paul Phillips I mean, really consistently out of his normal range thereby resulting in numerous cracks and perpetual wavering, not unlike the chirping birdsong of Johnny Denver. While Denver's muzak is catchy and carefully tailored MOR schmaltz pop, Gross fails in an to be "progressive." He tries to be sophisticated and sharp and come across as personable and sensitive, but he falls flat on his beard in the process. C ashman and West floundered in the production. Throughout the disc, a feeling persists that something was left out of the master track, be it more vocals or instrumentation. It might be beneficial for Gross to take a total re-evaluation of his music before he gets his release from Lifesong -Steven Brieff Records. attempt Pretty Things, Savage Eye (Swan Song) Sandwiched somewhere amidst the heavy-metal menagerie is a band of anglo rockers exiled into anonymity. The Pretty Things, who experienced a modicum of success in the British Isles, have never launched an effective blitzkrieg on American audiences. In their stead, the likes of Led Zeppelin and Bad Company have become England's biggest exponent and exports of arse kicking rock and roll punk exploits. The merits of heavy-metal have always been ridiculous. At its best, hard rock kidney punches society's frantic pace and obsession with growth for anti-human “ends. Heavy-metal conveys, with an adolescent fury, the emotional chaos of growing up absurd in a society Out of control. But at its frequent worst, hard rock is a deafening invitation to wallow in inconsequentiality and an endless string of reverberating migraines. The Pretty Things' Savage Eye bypasses inconsequentiality in favor of inspired mediocrity. The difference between the Pretty Things and other heavy-metal monstrdsities is that the Pretty Things add snappy four-part harmonies to their delivery. They rarely allow the more energy charged rockers to sour into sledgehammer contests or nightmarish feedback fantasies. Phil May and the boys realize their vocal proclivities and made use of this asset. "My Song" is a calliope of converging choruses. The vocalization is so adept you forget the thinness of the song's composition. "Sad Eye" revels' in a CSN&V feel and resembles what Steve Stills might have sounded like if his voice and talent hadn’t deserted him. On the more dynamic and rocking tunes the Pretty Things take aim with random farcical pot shots. "It Isn't Rock and Roll" is a swipe at the Stones while "I'm Keeping” (Bad Company) refers to fellow Swan Song artists. Led Zeppelin and Bad Company. The most attractive feature of the Pretty Things' hard rock is that the instrumentation is to the point. Pete Tolson's guitar, while not creatively imaginative, is generally crisp, clear and economical. Skip Alan's percussion work remains fluid, refusing into the moronically simplistic rhythms that are synonymous with the drumming of Simon Kirke. Where the Pretty Things do offend though, is by stumbling into a common production pitfall of the heavy-metal idion. The pitfall is the occasional muddied and muddled mixing of voices that should be clearly distinct from the instrumental track. This production oversight creates a snag in smooth 'functioning slickness that the Pretty Things strive for. For my money, the Pretty Things (with a name like that they can't be all bad) contextual polarity of energy and finesse makes them odds on favorites for some sort of hybrid heavy-metal mantle. Savage Eye isn't going to bowl you over with its inventiveness or ingenuity but it does profile a professional band demonstrating a likable competency. Only a class band like these blokes would have the style and guts to end their album with a lilting piano piece entitled "Theme for Michelle."

Permission of Instructor (P i.) is a form of academic freedom which is practised in many departments in the University. The specific reasons for requiring P.l. for WSC 213 are that; 1) the course is always oversubscribed and P.l. allows us to advise students as to whether or not there is room left in the course before they register; 2) the course is introductory but unlike most other introductory courses, is a discussion group of 20 students which requires a different type of work than a lecture course. P.l. allows us to explain to student# exactly j what'the course-entails so that they can be sure that they want to take it. Some of the results of not having P.l. this - — I am so surprised at the way my feelings on a required writing course have changed that I am compelled to write you a letter. When 1 originally read the article about it, the course sounded like a great idea. It seemed to me that there were lots of with poor writing skills, even in college. The way it would be administered seemed fair also. I read a letter in favor of it which re-enforced my belief. “Those freshmen will love that writing course next year,” 1 said to myself. But then I read a second letter; this one was against the idea. I began to have second thoughts. So what if a person doesn’t write as well as possible and his work suffers. What if he isn’t going on to graduate school. What if a “C” is as good as an “A” to somebody. If a student doesn’t want to be a master writer, that’s his prerogative; that’s his freedom. It’s the individual’s choice. Now I hate the idea. I mean, somebody is pushing their values on other people What a stupid idea! people David Hhr mam Vote constantly dropping and adding so that the classes could not become cohesive until the third week of the semester. Loss of P.I. has caused numerous inconveniences for students and instructors alike. The administration is supposed to be here to serve the interests of students on this campus. They took our P.I. off the five previously all women’s courses because they said that we used P.I. to exclude men from those courses. This is not the case. The removal of P.I. was an arbitrary act on the part of the administration and must be viewed as yet another attack on Women’s Studies College. Because we are concerned with the needs of students on this campus, we demand that P.I. be reinstated on all five former all women’s classes. Diane Carr Abbe Tiger for Bluebird To the Editor WINTER OLYMPICS semester are that students could not know until the first day of classes whether or not they were in the class. Also, many students were not aware of what the course entials. This has led to students This letter is in response to a letter signed “Dee S. Ousted” which appeared in The Spectrum last week concerning the bus service at the University. First, why did you have to go all the way to the University of Wisconsin to find an example of bus service at a cost? Isn’t there a closer example where bus service is necessary? I agree that we are fortunate to have free bus service. However, you forgot one thing. The buses have already been paid for by money you and 1 gave the University. Therefore, the buses are not free!!!! Second, you said that some high school students ride further than us. However, they know they can expect to get on a bus at a certain time. People at Ellicott and Governors can’t expect to get on a bus within half an hour! Also, the only reason we have no coach buses, only school buses, is because the administration split its contract between Bluebird and two other companies. The amount of money spent is the same, but the bus quality and quantity is less and the service is worse. Thirdly, just becuase the University hired Ridge Road to fill in the gap while Bluebird was on strike doesn’t mean we owe them a full year contract. You made a common error. Let me illustrate: Because we have a better standard of living than people of other countries, many people think we should sit back and be satisfied with what we have. That’s bull shit if we can do better. If we can have better bus service, we shouldn’t be satisfied. Even if we don’t yet know how to make the service better, we should still keep trying. Since we do know how to make it better, we should try even harder. Finally, why don’t you have the guts to sign your own name? Maybe you don’t have enough confidence in your own beliefs? Cute signatures are nice, but who can communicate with a ghost? I vote for full service by Bluebird. Walter F. Thiessen Wasted tax dollars To the Editor This letter is for all those people who think that the marijuana laws of New York State don’t affect them. The fact is, that NYS spends over $40 million of your tax dollars annually to enforce the existing marijuana laws. If maryuana use was potentially lethal or constituted some sort of social harm, then it might be money well spent. However marijuana is not significantly harmful either to the user or to the society in which the user functions. The National Commission on Marijuana and Drug Abuse came to the unanimous conclusion that, “no conclusive evidence exists of any physical damage, distrubances of bodily processes or proven human fatalities attributable soley to even very high doses of marijuana.” The Commission also stated that, “from what is now known about the effects of marjjuana, its use at the present level does not constitute a major threat to public health.” Therefore, $40 million is an awful lot of money to spend on an obsolete law that selectively punishes persons who realize that it is unjust and choose to disobey it. I’m sure anyone (even Ketter) could think of a number of needy areas where this money would be put to better use.

Rubin - Sports Editor The Olympics. Better known to ABC-TV fans as “the regularly scheduled meeting of the world.” When you think about it, they seem quite bizzare. Here are men. women and countries spending millions upon millions of dollars to put on this show that last for all of two weeks. ■ 1, for it all is that there is 1 guess the reason to the Olympics. nothing in sport that compares It’s all been said many times, but I’m going to say it again. The Olympics are more than a Super different than a world Bowl: They’re championship. They capture the interest of millions of people everywhere in the world. (However, it should be pointed out that Winter Olympics are not very popular in Texas,' according to one source, because the interest in speed skating is way down.) I had a sneaky suspicion that all the American teams were going to be kidnapped, held in the Tyrol Mountains, brainwashed, and released after the games. Tapes of poor American performances, staged earlier, would be relayed back to ABC. In this way, Russians, East Germans, West Germans, and all those other win at all-cost countries would be able in fact to win at all costs. However, the solid American performances thus far have made that sort of action by the bad guys appear unlikely. The Olympics have had many heartbreaks so far. Galina Kulakova of Russia lost a bronze medal because she suffered from post nasal drip and a cough due to a cold. The Eihnish hockey team was finished by a referee who ruled that the Finn’s tying goal in the game against the U.S. was kicked in and therefore not legal. Hockey, said the ref is a game of inches, not a game of feel. But the most disappointing occurrence of the l‘)76 Winter Olympics concerns hockey and the American television viewing audience.

Buffalo is now 7 14. while Rochester picked up its fifth win of the year against thirteen losses Prior to the game. Bulls coach Leo Richardson warned his players that a team with only four wins would be the type of team most likely to surprise Buffalo, especially since the Yellowjackets were playing at home. However, the Bulls didn't heed Richardson’s advice. "These are the kind of teams our kids don't pay any attention to,” said Richardson.

Richardson took out center Sarn Pellom, the nation’s leading rebounder as well as the Bulls’ leading scorer, and replaced him with Mike Jones. "Mike Jones didn’t help,” Richardson noted. “We had a seven point lead when I put him in and they knocked it down to two at the half.” Passing game works Rochester executed their pass plays well during comeback, although at times the Buffalo defense looked as if it had never seen a pass.

He made his national debut as NBC’s baseball game of the week play-by-play man after making Red Sox games intolerable for Boston fans for many He expanded into football, also on NBC, and has become notorious for confusing Buffalo with the largest city in Maryland. Now, for some reason not even Mr. Neilson can fathom, Olympics fans have been forced to listen to Curt Gowdy do play-by-play of Olympic hockey games. The athletes are supposed to be amateurs. Do the broadcasters have to be amateurs too? ABC gets a D tacked on for having the ineptitude to pass over top hockey people like Tim Ryun, Marv Albert, even Ted Darling, in favor of a turkey like Gowdy. Hell, 1 would have don$ | for fret; and I’m certainly no worse than ' •' he. But the Olympics haven’t been all bad. The Americans have done surprisingly well* and that’s nice. Franz Klammer won the men’s downhill and that’s nice too, especially since if he had lost, the Austrian government would have done nasty things to him like tar and feathering him and putting bamboo shoots under the fingernails. 1 must say that 1 have generally enjoyed the Olympics so far. The coverage has been fairly complete and reasonably interesting. One thing we have noticed, though. With the exception of bobsled and luge style events, the entire Olympics is leg based. Figure skating skiing, speed skating, and ski jumping are all primarily leg-oriented. In the summertime, the events become more universal. For the Winter Olympics, 1 suggest as a remedy to all this legginess that maybe some new arm-based sports should be included. For instance, snowball making and snow shovelling are two possible events which are quite interesting to watch and involve the more emphasis on arm strength than does sport like slalom skking.

The Bulls’ Sam Robinson, Ron MeGraw and Larry Jones each hit two buckets, and buffalo reeled off twelve unanswered points. Richardson claimed it was the Bulls defense which led to the numerous fast breaks during that stretch, but whatever the reason, the Bulls couldn’t keep it up. Planning the attack Rochester called time out, and Brown put the Yellowjackets back on the winning track. “All night, we tried to control the tempo," Brown explained “Thay started running and got a few breaks and a few buckets, so I called a time out and told them |the Rochester players| to try and get the game back to our tempo." Brown also switched to a half-court zone trap, which seemed effective in cutting off the Bulls normal patterns. Brown’s strategy worked. After the two teams traded four buckets each, Rochester’s half-court zone trap stopped the Bulls cold. Rochester, down by five points with four minutes to go, scored ten straight points, and when the Bulls looked up. there were only 47 seconds left and Rochester led by five. The Bulls struggled, but could only reduce the final margin to four points. “It was our best game since Holy Cross (on January 24|,” Brown said. The Yellowjackets had lost six games in a row prior to Wednesday night’s game. “Our kids were hungry for victory. They had been practicing really hard, and they hung in there,” he added. The Bulls now own a three game losing streak, but Richardson, who had predicted a strong finish, placed part of the blame for the loss to Rochester on himself. “We had a three point lead and I took Larry Jones out. Don Scott (Jones’ replacement] took some shots he shouldn t haVe taken.

Buffalo jumped to an early lead in the Fredonia pool and stayed ahead throughout the meet, breaking one All-American and four school records in the process. The records were set courtesy of Ted Brenner and Keil Wurf. Brenner, who seems to break a record every time he steps into a pool, eclipsed his own marks in the 200-yard individual medley and the 200-yard backstroke, completing each event in 2:05.8. Diver Wurl also broke Buffalo records in the 100 meter required and optional events. Finelli big story The big story of the day, however, centered around sophomore George Finelli. After contributing to the Bulls’ victory in the 400-yard medley relay, he took off in the 200-yard butterfly. His time was 2:04.4 which didn’t break any records. In fact, Fredonia’s Boh Gozenbach also finished in 2:04.4. However, Finelli was declared the winner by a touch, and therein lies the big story. Gozenbach is an All-American who has never been defeated. But Finelli, who knew what he was up against, went to Fredonia with the right attitude. He explained, “I was really psyched for him. I'd been preparing for him for a while.” Bull-eating Bengal* Finelli will have another chance to take on the best when he swims against John Turner of Buffalo State in the Big Four tournament February 26-28.

But we did succeed to an extent. It’s really too early to tell.” Responding to reports that there has been widespread criticism of Bullpen, Delia commented that some coaches were dissatisfied with the amount of coverage given them. But the roost serious criticism, which Delia sees as valid, is the poor coverage Bullpen has given to women’s sports throughout the year. “There’s no questions that we’ve shghted women’s sports, and all that I can say now is that we’re working on it,” explained Delia. Many problems solved Delia explained that Bullpen should in no fashion experience the same problems again next year. “We've already crossed many of the bridges needed to be crossed to begin a new newspaper,” Delia claimed. “We now have a solid advertising base to lean on. so we won’t have the same revenue problems. We’ve also assembled a writing and photo staff along with a good photo file.” In addition, we've learned from experience. It’s impossible to operate with just a four page paper.

Black spokesmen called the tuition . increases an “immediate disaster for blacks and other minorities A long range tuition plan for the. state’s public colleges would increase tuition by over 4300 in three years. Soaring tuition along with halts in expansion of facilities and hiring threaten to “completely gut what advances blacks and latinos have made in higher education,” according.to black State Senator Richard Newhouse. Other colleges and universities will probably be keeping any tuition increases under their hats until later this spring,'after regents and administrators have a chance to figure out the difference between their proposed budgets and the amount state legislators have actually given them. But if private schools’ proposed tuitions are any indication, the outlook won’t bp good, Private institutions that have announced tuition increases for next year are upping the ante about 8 to 10 percent. Total educational costs at Princeton will go up 8 percent, Harvard is jumping 8.4 percent to $6430, Dartmouth will be up 10.8 percent and the University of Southern California about 9.3 percent. ■ * �J .

Phone phreaking has gone respectable. “By and large, students are in the minority these days.” says Dennis Molluta, an At&T spokeman in New York. “Now it’s businessmen and lawyers and doctors it’s people of means, not students.” Mollura’s claim is backed up by recent phone phreak arrests.

Documentary of Viet refugees underway by Dana Dubbs Spectrum Staff Writer When the first Vietnamese war refugees arrived in the United States last May, they faced an uncertain future. Where would they go, what would they do, and would they be happy? A documentary history of the immigration and resettlement of these refugees is currently being compiled by researchers at this University, directed by Professor Ronald K. Goodenow of the of Department Social Foundations. Set up as a “study for cultural change in coming to the United States,” the project originated last June when Goodenow visited the University of San Diego to teach a course in American immigration history. He made frequent visits with his students to nearby Camp Pendleton, one of four relocation camps where refugees were sent upon anival in the United States. They collected documents, photographed camp life, and recorded interviews with war refugees, Marines, U.S. administrators, and volunteers - who the helped Vietnamese refugees adjust to their new life styles. Discussed specific problems In an oral presentation last week, Goodenow and Gail Kelly, co-director of the national project and a specialist in Vietnamese history and culture, discussed specific problems of the camp the assimilation setting, and process. They were joined by John Stephens, a graduate assistant who taught in Vietnam, speaks fluent Vietnamese and presently teaches Vietnamese people in Buffalo. Stephens recounted experiences he had had while working with the Vietnamese both in Vietnam and in the American internment camps. The internment camps were the first of their kind in the United States whose purpose was to handle a large influx of refugees, stated Goodenow. Kelly claims that the American government accpeted the refugees with the intent to scatter them throughout the country so as not to burden any one particular The camps, which were ail closed hy (he firs! of (his year hy the federal government, were originally located at Camp Pendleton, California: Fort Chaffee, Arkansas: tglin Air Foret Base, Florida and Indiantown Cap Military Reservation, Pennsylvania.

Representatives of the Committee will observe classes offered by the two Colleges to ensure that they are living up to the goals as outlined in their charters. Presently, four Tolstoy College (College F) Anarchism, The Polish-American Experience in Buffalo, Language and Literature, and Men’s Roles in Recent American Fiction will be under observation for the next few weeks. However, Social Sciences College has thus far resisted any attempts by Committee members to sit in on their classes, arguing that this type of “monitoring is not a courses the Also English vocabulary pertinant to each skill. “Many programs in the camp were designed to force people out of the camps, such as two-week evening classes,” Goodenow said. “At Indiantown Gap, they closed the Fnglish class first when they wanted the classes to end,” Kelly added. In effect, the camps to relocate through a sponsorship program. Under this resettlement program, a refugee was required to have a sponsor before being allowed to leavy the camp. Sponsors took on the moral (although not legal) responsibility of providing a refugee with food, Nothing, shelter, and employment until he could support himself. Kelly described the camps as ‘very, very similar to the concentration camps of World War II designed for lapanese-Americans.” The Vietnamese lived in tents and barracks, and were not permitted to leave without clearance. However, there were attempts at a Vietnamese infra-structure, and various educational and recreational programs were set up by volunteers. At the various camps, the Red Cross gave first aid training in home care of the sick and injured. Job training classes taught vocational skills, including thought and action are a concurrent process Sciences Social carpentry. was were “scaring them out,” she said The assimilation of the Vietnamese into American society is not an easy task. They face a variety of difficulties which range from differences in climate to differences in language and culture. For many of the more than 120,000 Vietnamese refugees, the —continued on Howie Kling. 1 xecutive Committee member of Social Sciences College, said his College is lighting the review. None of the Committee members have shown any background in Marxism, which is the guiding philosophy of the College, he noted.

The federal governmentwhich has money, needs a testing ground for its social programs affirmative action, sex discrimination laws and labor legislation. So the government tells the universities that they can have the money it they comply with the latest government regulations within a certain period of time. The pricetag for this increased government control over university policies and practices was a staggering S2 billion last year, paid for by consumers of education. The S2 billion spent annually on complying with federal regulations is the equivalent of "all voluntary giving to institutions of higher education,” according to Change magazine. Although many university administrators agree with the federal controls in principle, the fact is that it cost them from one to tour percent of their yearly operating budgets last year just to keep up with the laws. According to a study by the American Council on education, this has increased 10 to 20 fold in the past decade, rising much taster than total revenue. the 13th w - Invasion of the arm But without any government funding at all. many colleges and universities could not survive. Even private, independent schools are no longer exempt from the long arm of government. Since last October, independent colleges are defined as recipients of federal education dollars if any student there receives governmental loans, grants or veterans benefits. Unfortunately much of the money spent on complying with the federal regulations is not spent on improving anyone’s lot. More often it is used to set up a separate bureaucracy to prove to the government that the school is obeying. Advertisements placed by colleges and universities to meet federal affirmative action requirements cost an estimated $6 million last year, “though few professional placements result from such national advertisements,” Change reported. The government invades universities with more power than just research dollars and student loans and grants. Now the Internal Revenue Service is threatening to withdraw tax-exempt status from any public or private that does not practice educational institution “equal opportunities” in its recruitment ol students. What this means to individual universities is that they will have to keep detailed records of all those who apply for admission whether they are accepted or not and hand them over to the government if asked. The cost would be in the thousands of dollars for most schools. But without their tax-exempt status, many schools would cease to / I T >wifiph md Cheese Pt Cuacketis < The piper listens So far, schools haven't gone out of business because of their expense in complying with the government controls.

Plato felt artisja (poets) were threats to his rational utopia and in fon spoke of the poet’s state of “divine insanity” and of the eloquence of Homer's poetry deriving “from divine inspiration and insanity” (Shelley trans.). In our age, creativity has become an avowed objective of education, since we see man as inherently creative through our rose-colored goggles which confuse talent with creativity and see productivity as an end in itself. We destructure our schools to allow children to run wild and rabid, drooling spontaneous creativity throughout the buildings. Little wonder persons arrive at the university after twelve years in school unable to write or think. Rollo May has been thinking about this subject for more than two decades. Here in The Courage ter Create he provides a brief compendium of his major observations among them, an important delineation of the role played by the limitation of spontaneity and play. May examines three aspects of human “creativity”: the collective aspect of creation, i.e., the artist as articulator of the collective unconscious of his culture; the individual aspect of creation, i.e., the struggle of the artist to realize and make perfect it is lys expression; .finally and most importantly the subject of the central essay “encounter.” Encounter is the Other from which spontaneity rebounds. The artist not only encounters the subjective-objective world of enculturated values and the expectations of his society, but he also must encounter, if he is to prpduce anything, the limitations of the physical world and those aspects of it with which he seeks to realize his expression. May is not interested in “great” or “famous” artists (here, “artist” applies to any creative individual), for he feels that their creativity is only an intensification of a normal human function; the continual coming-to-terms-with or formalization-of the world which each individual must do everyday. May sees as the essence of creativity. Such normal creativity is evident in the play of young children, he argues, though mature creativity arises out of an awareness of formal limitations. “Children’s art is characterized by an unfinished quality. Despite the apparent similarity with nonobjective art, it still lacks the tension necessary for authentic mature art. It is a promise but not yet an achievement. Sooner or later the growing person’s art must relate itself to the dialectic tension that comes but of confronting limits and is present in all forms of mature art. Michelangelo’s writhing slaves; Van Gogh’s fiercely twisting cypress trees; Cezanne’s lovely yellow-green landscapes of southern France, reminding us of the freshness of eternal spring these works have that spontaneity, but they also have the mature quality that comes from the absorption of tension. This makes them much more than “interesting;” it makes them great. The controlled and transcended tension present in the work of art is the result of the artists’ successful struggle with and against limits.” THE Courage to Create ROLLO MAY — AUTHOR OF LOVE AND WILL — ft requires courage, too, to confront again and again the limits imposed by the medium as well as — 1444 HERTEL AVENUE (near Colvin) j^Jhereisa^ difference!!! • * PREPARE FOR: • MCAT • • ' OAT LSAT ORE GMAT OCAT CPAT • Z • SAT FLEX ECFM6 : : : m Voluminous home • • study metacials Courses that are ttantt\ updated • • Small classes • Center open days : : • • A SALE -SPECIAL! -SALE habit today.

Many persons never have the courage, and many artists Jose their courage, just as many psychotics have lost the courage to encounter and “create” reality. (There is throughout the essays an intentional connection between mental health and creativity, stemming from May’s conception of creativity as a normal human function. May himself would probably argue that a society’s artists are its healthiest individuals.) . Within this framework of the dialectic between spontaneity and limitation, May presents evidence showing that drugs, alcohol and transcendental meditation, though they may ease tensions brought on by contemporary society, do not increase in fact, they decrease creativity precisely because they allow the individual to avoid the sense of limitation. They may produce greater fantasy and greater associations, but they also prevent the channelling of the fantasies and associations into meaningful forms. The artist, on the other hand, engages this awareness of limitation. To say the least, these essays, despite the vagueness of some of May’s terms, which may be due to his refusal to couch his discussions in psychological terminology, are stimulating. Though not as provocative as Phyllis Greenacre’s papers on gifted individuals, May’s essays arrive at conclusions close to hers and are more accessible to persons with a non-technical interest in “creativity.” til 4 a.m. YAVE. -836-8905 a Capri Art from Theatretmmmmmmmm AMHERST CAMPUS MAIN ST.

Spectrum Page five . �■ 1 EditPrial • ■ Fair review Guest Opinion by Executive Committee , Graduate Student Association In January of 1975, President Robert Ketter formally approved charters for eleven of the then twelve existing Collegiate units. A number of provisions accompanied the granting of these charters, including the stipulation that there be either partial or total review of nine Colleges after 18 months, and Social Sciences and Tolstoy Colleges after gne year. Now, a year later, with the state of the SUNY budget reaching crisis proportions, and with the Academic Planning Committee at this University ready to hand down its recommendations for extensive cutbacks in academic areas tomorrow. Social Sciences and Tolstoy Colleges are undergoing their mandated reviews. The more radical nature of these two Colleges, which supporters construe as healthy alternatives to traditional education, plade them in an extremely vulnerable position when it comes to deciding where cuts in academics will be made. As his track record has shown, Ketter has never been partial to these two particular Colleges. Both are committed to the exposition of a political philosophy (Social Sciences, Marxism; Tolstoy, Anarchism) which conservative elements at this institution euphemistically regard as a threat to "the academic freedom to which this University is committed." We have already witnessed once this past year how in the name of "academic freedom" the Ketter administration altered the very core of the Women's Studies program. Knowing the disdain with which Ketter regards Social Sciences and Tolstoy Colleges, it would come as no surprise if he were looking to use this opportune time of financial austerity to ax them right out of existence.

So, it was going tb be a party with a theme attached, or perhaps it would be a theme with a party attached. What’s the difference anyway, you might ask. Ah, but there hey, this man’s got must be a difference something on his mind. But what? “Maybe you should go in first,” one of my friends said to me, after he had driven us taxi-style in his recently purchased 1965 Ford Galaxi 500 to a small parking lot across the street from the house. In the hall next to the kitchen, twis greeted with, “It’s a drag you could make it. Aue you on the guest list?” To which I promptly smiled and said, "... yeah, fuck you, too.” some beer in the kitchen,” said one of the occupants of the house, pointing in that direction. I followed the tips of his Angers and, after nodding a greeting to a few familiar faces, 1 located the tap. The beer was being served in three-ounce paper cups, which meant that to drink more than a few mouthfuls of beer, you’d probably have to spend the whole night sitting on the keg. It didn’t really matter, because the keg was empty. Pretty funny, huh? Bad vibes is right, but what do you want? It was already midnight... but wait, I saw a red reefer coming my way always glad to get more stoned. It was indeed a red reefer, a mentholated red reefer. After a toke, a foul-tasting toke from a bizarre I passed it looking joint. I found out later that'ManhoIe and Rust had rolled a few peppermint and damiana tea numbers for their guests to enjoy, something about ‘bringing out the best in psychosomatic tendencies Enough Of this, I thought, on to the next room. The whole thing was making me laugh. The bare wood floors were covered with balled and serpi-balled newspapers; here and there were splotches of orange apd green and yellow. At a closer glance, the colo$ revealed themselves to be the innards of a. squash, shreds of lettuce and the inevitable banana peel. But of course, what could be more natural and more original than to display the remains of one's dinner? I laughed so hard that -I nearly slipped on that same banana peel and came close to hitting my head against someone else’s head whose owner was laughing at least as hard as I was. , “Must be the reefer,” I smirked. � “Must be the hors d’oeuyres,” he smirked back. Food, I thought. I’m so munched out I'll eat anything... almost. The potato chips were so soggy that they stuck to my hand and folded like wet paper towels when I tried to grab a handful.

Continuity in education, especially concerning courses so closely related as Physics 113 and Physics 114 should be viewed as of utmost importance, if the needs of the students are to be met. Not only was continuity disturbed by assigning a new teacher at the beginning of the term, but changing professors three weeks into the semester further added to the confusion. This confusion can only have a negative effect on our success In studying physics and therefore is not in the best interests of us as students. Furthermore we feel that the handling of the situation was unnecessarily unfair to Dr. Beth as a professor, but more importantly as a human being.

Amy Egan Carolyn McGuffog — More rent, less services ... To the Editor. ■ On February 5th at 10:30 p.m., Goodyear Hall had a meeting over the proposed dorm rent and tuition hike with the Director of Housing. Sfeventy students assembled on the seventh floor (east) lounge and demanded answers from the Housing Director as to why we have to pay $100 more while they are already cutting back on maintenance, RA privileges and overall living conditions in the dorms. The Housing Director’s only direct answer was that the dorm increase in 'rent would be coupled with a decrease in dorm services. If we hadn’t known before, we realized by the end of the meeting that the Housing Director’s job is not to work for us, but to make excuses for the administration’s cuts. The Board of Trustees of the SUNY system are meeting at the end of February to decide if they will raise our tuition and dorm rent SI00. We realized nothing would be done through the administration for us. So we are planning to take action against the administration on Feb. 24 to tell them WE WON’T PAY SI 00 MORE FOR THIS CRAP!

I must admit I took one by its toothpick and sort of dipped it into what looked like chocolate and nibbled on it. Christ, it was disgusting and I spit it out on the floor. But then I laughed; the joke was on me and whoever else was foolish enough or stoned enough to eat that shit! “These guys have some nerve putting this stuff out,” exclaimed someone standing rather unsteadily next to me. He was choking on his words and clutching his stomach because he was laughing so hard. I learned later that it was coffee grinds into which I had dipped my kidney bean. Too much. Some healthy looking pretzels caught my eye. Apparently they were untouched so I ate a few. “Don’t you know,” a girl laughed at me. “They’re coated with monosodium glutimate.” I laughed again and politely said, “Fuck you,” to the girl, when somebody very- opportunely handed me a shot glass ofbeer. In one comer, a group of people were circle-mocking ‘Of-ri’ with pointing fingers and stamping feet. Their feet were stamping to the sounds of stereos, yes, two stereos, playing different music simultaneously. Discs such as Lawrence Welk playing Songs From Mary Poppins and the Rolling Stones’ Sticky Fingers appeared together. So did Steve Reich and Merl Taylor, “a really bad fiddler,” according to Manhole. Alan Silva and the Celestrial Communication Orchestra v»eW featured against themselves. (“It’s, a dabble album,” he explained.) I went to do my thing m the bathroom, and indeed I did, but the place reeked'from the dead fish in the bathtub. A jello was brought out on a platter, but before it could be devoured, my own housemate, Verry, threw it in the face of Tashery, a good friend of ours. A few clumps even landed on Manhole himself. I found out (later of course) that the jello was tasteless anyway, nothing more than gelatin mold and food coloring. “We wanted an alternative to the typical good-vibes party,” offered Manhole vaguely, the definite spokesman for Of-ri, Bong and Rust, the other three inhabitants of the house. “However,” he continued, “we now disavow any knowledge of a party in our house.” How convenient, I thought, but then, it was actually more of an experience of no specific nature than a party. It was certainly different than the reported six or so other parties, or so-called parties that happened’on Friday night. 1 don’t know. I wasn’t at thoie other parties and besides, it’s all past now so who gives a damn. But i laughed and laughed on Friday in fact, 1 laughed all the way to night Annacone’s Inn by that time I had to have a beer, I even deserved one. I hope Manhole, Of-ri, Bong and Rust find the balls to their resident pinball machine. — - ... >v- V VO (iWTHlUK ffiVZfJIB FAVORS 7H6 ROSSI AMS 100)6 OF ‘/oue dosuoess &>■ (OHICH AS ID seamv? ww? „ .

Page seven �«*' * J.V. action Buffalo hoopsters crushed by the Hilbert Hawks 74-56 one-on-one offensive play may be the be.st available. by Ira Brushman Spectrum Staff Writer There was much more to say about the Hilbert Hawks then about the Buffalo JV basketball team in the Hawks’ 74-56 victory over the Baby Bulls last Friday night in Clark Hall. The Hawks, led by a fiery 5’11” point guard, Willie Morris, ran the Bulls right out of the gymnasium. In the words of Buffalo coach Matt Fischer, “We can’t shoot and we can’t run.” That doesn’t leave much. The Baby Bulls’ main problem appears to be the loss of guard Donald Scott who was moved up to the fairly varsity squad. He used to run the ball club well in fact— and his absence leaves a serious void in the Bulls’ ball-handling capabilities. Guard Sterling Hedley was’'much more effective in the back court when Scott was around because he was able to concentrate on his own play and leave the offensive quarterbacking to Scott. Hedley’s 0-for-17 shooting performance Friday night is good evidence of that. Fischer sums it up by saying, “He’s got talent, but he needs a strong supporting cast.” — teammate George Finelli have turned in outstanding swimming performances in the past which have led to many Athlete-of-the-Week awards. Last week, Brenner put on another show for the swimming Bulls. Against Rochester on Wednesday, Brenner took the 200 yard backstroke and the 200 yard individual medley events, breaking the school record in the latter. He also led the Bulls' 400 yard relay team to a triumph. Then, on Saturday in Clark Pool against Alfred, the sophomore again broke the record in 200 individual medley and again Brookins bright spot The other half of the Baby led Buffalo's 400 medley team to a triumph. Bulls’ rear guard, Freddie Brookins, is the only Bull who can Strong swimming by Bulls defeats Alfred the ball in the basket. consistently put of that and frequently Unfortunately, he’s aware his own hands a la Earl tries to take the game into It’s to blame him because his tough Monroe. The University of Buffalo swim team, led by a strong performance from sophomore Ted Brenner, defeated Alfred University 66-46 last Saturday at Clark Hall Brenner, a native of Amherst, helped establish a new school record in the 400-yard relay, and placed first in the 200-yard individual medley with another record time of 2 minutes, 7.4 seconds. The victory for Coach Bill Sanford and his crew was made even sweeter by virtue of the fact that they had never beaten Alfred before. With this thought in mind, the Buffalo swimmers came out fired up, and quickly captured the first event, the 400 yard medley relay. But the momentum didn’t swing all the way towards Buffalo until the 50 yard free style which was won by the Bulls Peter Jaremka. The Bulls continued to power past Alfred in the 200 yard individual medley. Carlton Gebaur placed second, while Brenner came in on top, setting the first of his two records for the afternoon. Brenner and Gebaur’s one-two finish established a Bull lead that was never lost. Buffalo stayed on top with a win in the 200 yard butterfly by George Finelli, and also with key victories in the diving competition from Keil Wurl and Michael Doran. The victory was iced in perfect fashion, as the 400 yard relay team of Chuck Niles, Finelli, Jaremka and Brenner won with another record time of 3 minutes, 27 seconds. l' The win. which evens Buffalo’s record at 5-5, is an encouraging one for Sanford’s young team, which has only two seniors on the squad. After three early season loses, the swimmers have come on strong, and face Brockport at home in the season’s finale on February 18. But more importantly, the team seems to be peaking just in time to defend its title in the SUNY Centers meet on the 21st at Binghamton. The only other prominent Baby Bull is 6’5” center Lloyd McKinon who scored a team high 16 points against Hilbert. He is the only real bright spot on the team. McKinon’s defense and rebounding have improved tremendously, and his shot selection is excellent. Reserves Jeff Mis, Alan Pillans, and Mark Sacha do show flashes of brilliance coming off the bench, but they usually get to play only in lost cause situations. Morris mauls Bulls The game against Hilbert was typical of the Baby Bulls’ performances in recent games. Unable to defend the Hawks' fast break, Buffalo quickly fell behind by six and eight points early in the first hall. Morris’ outstanding performance did not make the Bulls’ defensive chores any easier. In fact, Morris’ tenacious defense, hard drives to the basket, and team cheerleading did most of the damage for Hilbert. At the end of the first half, Morris and the Hawks had calmly opened up a 19-point advantage, and the second half was played out essentially just to make it official. The Baby Bulls’ record now stands at 4-6, but if this recent trend continues, improvement is not likely.

Revels returned to Buffalo on Friday night and scored a Clark Hall record 42 points to lead the Blackbirds past Buttalo, 76-72. Revels said he chose LIU over Buffalo because he did not like the Bulls' schedule or the Buffalo weather. Ironically, in the two years since Revels made his choice, there have been drastic improvements in the Bulls’ schedule, going from a majority of Division II and III teams to a majority of Division I teams. “We knew he could play two years ago,” said Richardson. Revels took very little time Friday night to prove it again by scoring the game's first five points in a little over eighty seconds. Nevertheless, Buffalo came back, and two consecutive buckets by sophomore guard Larry Jones pul Buffalo on top by one. two years ago. Revels Six in a row Not satisfied with (hat. Revels started another storing spree, and in the next eighty seconds scored six more points, and LIU was back in the lead. Revels had one more scoring spurt to end the half, but Buffalo was able to stay even during that skein by Revels on three freelhrows and a contested tip-in by center Sam I’ellom, who finished with 2b rebounds and 23 points. Revels had 22 of the Blackbirds 3 l points at ) halftime. "I just tried to keep on going in the second half,” Revels said, and that's just what he did. After Jones had scored a three point play to give the Bulls their largest lead of the night, four points. Revels put in six of the Blackbirds next nine points, while the Bulls went scoreless for four minutes. After that, Buffalo never came closer than three points. "I just wanted to play good to show them that I could play," Revels said. “I felt bad about the loss last year |a 75-72 Buffalo win|. I wanted to gel revenge.” He admitted that some of his 16-for-22 shooting performance was due to his basket hanging, but added "Our coach lets me go free. I can do pretty much as I want." Richardson was a bit philosophical about it all. "There's nothing you can do when someone is that hot. We had a hand in his face every time, except those lay-ups. Richardson claimed that Ron McCJraw. whose job was to guard Revels, was not concentrating on defense as much as he should have been. " Robinson sfops Douse The'other key match-up between Buffalo's Sam Robinson and 1 Ill's All-American candidate I rnie Douse, ended largely in Buffalo's favor. Douse, who had been the Blackbirds leading scorer so tar this year, was limited to a few turnovers in the early going before he began forcing twenty-fool jumpers over Robinson. Douse finished with eight points, twelve under his season's average. "Coach | Mall I fisher had we should put Robinson on Douse," cl id the job. Unfortunately, we only "And he Richardson explained, have one Sam Robinson." he said relcrring to the tact that no one was able to guard Revels. "We played a good game. Richardson conceded. "Any lime you play a good team, you gel up for them. We're going to have to concentrate a little bit more, but we're coming along." The Bulls, now 7-12. play Rochester tonight, a team they have beaten decisively each of the last two years, as Buffalo looks for its first road win in ten attempts. scouted them and by Gary Charles Staff Writer Spectrum The Buffalo Bulls fencing team destroyed a young I lmira College team by a score of 23 to 4 last Saturday afternoon in Clark Hall. Led hy the strong performances of Su Peck. Marty Schiff and Gary Gerber, the Bulls easily defeated the Soaring l.agles. I lmira brought only six fencers to the meet, each with very little experience evident as Buffalo sewed up the meet after the sixteenth of 27 bouts. With this impressive win the Bulls extended their record to two wins and three losses. Captain Peter Agamy of 1 Imira said, “Most of the guys on the team have less than six months experience and since we arc such a small school, it's hard to raise a team." One of I Imira's starters had only been fencing four weeks Dual duel representation freshman Su Peek of the fencing team is the first woman to start on a men’s varsity team at Buffalo. Her sixth place ranking in the women's 1 c ) and under-age group in the nation impresses most of her male opponents. So far this year she has won nine and lost six bouts. "It isn't that much different than fencing with women although they (men) are stronger and faster," Peek explained. With one more year lo compete in this age group, she hopes to do better this year at the Amateur Fencing League of America (AFLA) Nationals. There are three different weapons used in the competition, the foil, epee and sabre. The foil is the lightest weapon and is scored by electronically registered touches. Duelers wear light metal mesh vests and the swords are wired to complete a circuit when the tip of the sword touches a vest A judge Watches to award touches to the swordsman who hits'his opponent by initiating an attack. Only touches on the torso can be scored since the metal vest covers that part of the body. Ouch The epee is a bit heavier ami is also scored electronically. However, the whole body is a target area. The sabre is a light sword that can cut as well as puncture. A judge and four referees award the touches since there isn’t an electronic scorer. Like the epee, the whole body is the target area. The fencing Bulls in their opening meet of the year fenced the national collegiate champions Wayne State and lost. However Coach Bill Marchant said, “Our epee team stood on par with them.” He added that the level of competition the team has faced this the Buffalo year is comparable to "sending basketball team up against UCLA.” The Bulls have more difficult meets ahead, including a home contest against Penn State, and hope to have more support from the University.

But, Ketter said, “There has to be recognition, whether you like it or not (and I must be honest and indicate that in several instances, 1 don’t), that ultimate and administrative fiscal responsibility and authority for this and all ventures at the University rests with the chief administrative officer.” Ketter said the pharmacy must fall under a recognized arm of the University so that justification for clearly existence be its educational and not just operated of for the “convenience” students. “There must be adequate provision to ensure that the pharmacy will not become simply another drug store,” he added, saying one way this could be accomplished is through the partial or complete restriction of of sales over-the-counter items. non-prescription Ketter made clear his support of the pharmacy as an educational program. > Managing Editor ...

I support it,” he wrote. The pharmacy, open since early November, was funded with $36,000 in originally fees from Sub student mandatory Board and a $1500 allocation from the administration. Health care and a pharmacy were shown to be the number one student priority in a funding survey by the Student undergraduate Association (SA)in 1973. The pharmacy was planned by a committee of representatives from Sub Board, the School of Pharmacy and the University Health Sciences Division. About 40 prescriptions a day are currently filled there. Ketter cut off funds for the pharmacy’s operation without notice in late November, and only revealed through a spokesman around January 14 his demand that the license be transferred to the University. Ketter said in his letter that subsequent to his identifying particular University criteria for the pharmacy’s operation, he discovered that understandings reached earlier had not been executed “a fact which was most notably highlighted” by Sub Board’s holding the license. Robert Ketter — �r Student Health Fee ' Compromise is sm Jackalone’s motion was tabled until the next Senate meeting. An idea to ban disposable containers on campus presented by New York Public Interest (NYPIRG) Group Research member John Ziegler, led to a resolution passed by Senate. Ziegler stressed that the purpose of the resolution was not to shake up the Faculty Student which Association (FSA), operates the Food and Vending Services, but to show that there is widespread student support for a return to recyclable containers. “This is best pointed out in yending," Ziegler explained. “As the old machines wear out, we would simply like to see them replaced with machines that can handle returnable bottles.” Art Senate Chairperson Lalonde summarized the events which led to the dispute between Sub Board and the yUAB Film Committee regarding the showing The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is so corrupt it should be of eight particular films this drastically reformed or abolished, authors Kirkpatrick Sale and John semester.

He believes the CIA should'remain operative, but that most covert operations and other “dirty tricks” against the American people, should be scaled down or eradicated. Marks, the author of The CIA and the Cult of Intelligence (co-authored by former CIA agent Victor Marchetti), stressed that the the assumption type of reasoning behind the CIA’s covert operations that the United States knows what isbest for the rest of the world Is the reason why the CIA has to be curtailed. He said that the purpose of ; the agency is to “cause events to happen.” In citing examples of past CIA antics, Marks painted a picture of; political black comedy. Once the "CIA attempted to discredit MaoTse-Tung in some African states by passing out “-chemically treated”" Mao buttons which made the wearers, of such a button’s clothes fall apart. jjwj llJUv" ■ Using examples drawn from every President since EisenhowefrMarks demonstrated how the A bases its actions on lies and deceit-’ and how its hierarchy almost forced presidents to lie for them.

The political functions of the CIA during the 1960’s and early I970’s included the infiltration and disruption of the so-called New Left radical political groups. Sale claims that the agency “paid Goon f° rrnetf SA Title IX Committee. Squads to beat up on demonstrators in Washington, D.C., New York and other major cities” in which radical action’ was going on. “They knew it was illegal,” he added, “but they did it anyway.” Concerning business corporations.

She reports that Marine is not allowed to practice any of her religious beliefs in the home. An underground Jewish activist who spoke to Marina this summer said that although physically Marina’s health was good, she appeared very nervous, perhaps on the verge of a breakdown. She revealed to this woman that she still wants to immigrate to Israel to be with her father, according to Tiemkin. Tiemkin is now appealing to people in America and Europe to come to the aid of his daughter. Since his arrival on January 12, he has spoken to “a great number of people,” greatly impressed by the “strong Jewish community.” He is speaking to both the general Jewish population and politicians that are sympathetic to the plight of Soviet Jews. He has already spoken with aides of Senators Jackson, Percy and Stevenson.

He refuses to make any further attempts to deal with that organization. He is also meeting with psychiatrists and scientists from the United States, in hope that they might contact Soviet officials. During all of these meetings, Tiemkin distributes postcards addressed to Secretary Brezhnev which “urge the reunification of Marina with her father.” He is certain that his public pressure will have an effect, as “the Soviet government had expected no negative reaction at all.” Tiemkin indicated that other Jewish children have been forced to remain in the Soviet Union while their parents immigrate. He cited a case where the same tactics were used against another young girl who had received permission to go to Israel. Her parents were required to leave for Israel without their daughter or else face jail. Tiemkin pleaded with his audience. “1 beg to all of you for strong pressure to the Soviet authorities to release my daughter and other children.” The lecture was sponsored by the Buffalo Chapter of the Student Struggle for Soviet Jewry. a runs drive to win more support GSEU The Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) kicked off a campus-wide drive last week to win support for five demands centered around protecting the jobs of state-funded graduate students employed as teaching or research assistants. The union is currently circulating petitions to students, faculty and staff listing demands that they feel must be fulfilled “immediately if Graduate Assistants (GA’s) and Teaching Assistants (TA’s) are to survive The union charges that salaries have remained frozen since 1967, and that 165 jobs have already been eliminated since last year. Union leaders also explain that current budget cuts will hamper the completion of programs already in progress. The union maintains that cuts have resulted in increased workloads, at pay below the Federal poverty level. Information pickets will be set up today and Thursday at Norton Hall “to visually seek the support of the University community,” a spokesperson explained. Only informational in purpose, the union picketers will have literature and petitions available. The union’s demands call for a $4,000 minimum wage level for all state-funded graduate employees, plus guaranteed tuition waivers and the restoration of all 165 graduate student jobs cut last year. The union also wants assured funding of graduate employees for the duration of their degree requirements, and accident and liability insurance for injuries suffered in laboratory or classroom accidents Finally, they insist on an affirmative action program in graduate student hiring practices which would bring the “allocation of state graduate funding in line with the proportion of women and minorities in the state population.” The GSEU is planning a rally Wednesday, February 18 to present the “Five Demands” petition to the University Administration. Ten days later, the union will hold another rally to report the Administration’s response. President Robert Ketter has stated earlier that he does not accept the contention that graduate teaching assistants were overworked and underpaid. Monday, 9 February 1976 The Spectrum Page three . . �Hurricane Carter Celebrities flock to latest cause by Pat Quinlivan City Editor A national controversy is heating up over the murder convictions of Rubin “Hurricane” Carter and John Artis of New Jersey. The two were found guilty by an all-white jury of killing three people in a 1966 bar hold-up in Patterson, New Jersey. Both of the defendants are black. The victims were white. Widespread interest in the case was aroused in 1974, when the two key prosecution witnesses, Arthur Bradley and Alfred Bello, recanted their testimony. They claimed they had been coerced by the police into falsely identifying Carter and Artis. However, Judge Samue Lamer who tried the original case, rejected the Carter-Artis motion for a new trial on the grounds that the recantations “lacked the ring of truth.” At the recantation hearing, previously suppressed evidence was also revealed. Since the denial of a new trial a group known as Freedom for All, Forever has established the Hurricane Fund, which has been raising defense money for Carter, a professional boxer at the time of his arrest, and Artis. Walt Frazier, lawyer Adam Walinski and many others from all walks of life. The story of the Carter-Artis case is dotted with irregularities and inconsistencies It began at about 2:30 a.m. on June 17, 1966, when two black men entered the Lafayette Bar and Grill in Patterson, New Jersey and killed the bartender and one patron. Another patron, Hazel Tanis, died a month later, and William Marins, the sole survivor, lost an eye. Long, hard night Later that night, Carter and Artis were stopped by police, picked up and questioned about the crime for 17 hours at police headquarters, and released. Marins and Tanis, the witnesses, both described their assailant as light-skinned, 6-foot black man, about 175-190 pounds, with a pencil-thin moustache. Carter was dark-skinned, 5-foot 8-inches, 155 pounds, and he had a thick moustache, goatee and shaved head. Four months later, on October 14, 1966, Arthur Bradley and Albert Bello signed statements positively identifying Carter and Artis as the murderers, and they were arrested that night. Bradley and Bello, both of whom had long criminal records, had admitted to being near the scene of the The Greatest murders on the night they took place, as they were The co-chairmen of this drive are Muhammed Ali, committing a burglary.

Three days after this interview took place, Bello and Bradley “fingered” Carter and Artis. DeSimone also admitted to making promises to Bradley at that time. In December 1974, to the shock of the defense, Judy Lamer rejected the re-trial motion. He did so again in February 1975, and in May he refused a request that Carter and Artis be granted bail pending their new appeal to a higher court for a re-trial. Currently, Carter and Artis are awaiting the results of an appeal to the New Jersey Supreme Court for a re-trial, for which oral arguments were heard on January 12. They have withdrawn their applications to Govern Brendan Byrne for pardons, and are seeking complete vindication in the courts. Carter has said this is in response to a move by Assemblyman Eldridge Hawkins, who, working on the governor’s behalf, has claimed to have new evidence that Carter and Artis were not the murderers, but were outside the bar at the time of the slayings, as accomplices. “This charge is totally false,” asserts Carter, who says they want “complete exoneration in the courts,” and not a compromise settlement which would still paint them as criminals. for leading a strike fqr higher wages in the. license plate shop.

In light of the Robertson panel findings, Weis claims the Air Force has been able to cover up UFO observations for 15 years. A °^ er made even talking about UFO s punishable byoneto ten years in prison and a fine of probably by Cindy Kaplan Staff Writer Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO’s) arc appearing with increasing frequency throughout the world, researcher Norman Weis said Tuesday evening in Diefendorf Hall at a special lecture sponsored by the Political Science Club. Reported UFO sightings, landings and personal contacts are continually on the rise he said. Weis, a former music professor at this University, began his sVudy of flying saucers in 1955 when he spotted one while fishing off the shore of Lake Erie. “1 it was the sun at first so bright and bhndmg,’’he explained. thougit According to Weis, the government has been aware that flying saucers are very real and that their presence indicates interest in our planet by curious explorers in the including universe. Several presidents Gerald Ford, Lyndon Johnson and John seemed to be ‘saucerwise Kennedy and thus initially willing to uncover and explain the facts to the American people. But once in office, their desire was abandoned. Weis posited that someone higher up than the president, like the Centrkl Intelligence Agency (CIA), is promoting a coverup campaign - ” - Evidence As evidence that the government has been attempting to conceal the issue Weis cited the Robertson panel of five scientists which in 1953 set out to Investigate UFO’s. Movies of UFO’s traveling at extremely high speeds were observed, but the report concluded that the objects observed were h°KU-’ ’ University ofColorado aU d concluded flying queers presented no danger and even worth investigating. But WCren’t according to Weis, the study which had a $600,000 budget, was so inconclusive that investigation into current UFO sightings at the t | me never even took place. “Everyone believes it’s a hoax,” said Weis, “we’re but conditioned to be so skeptical. close to of OU ve been so 12-13 when y you’ll those things [UFQ’s] as 1 have be a believer too.” .. A ’ ... Assorted spaceships So, what are these UFO's? Weis and some scientists maintain there are at least a billion suns and trillions of planets in the Milky Way Galaxy. Therefore, there must be a million or so places, similar to our own planet, where beings like us maintain a similar life style. ‘ These creatures control the frequently spotted UFO’s, whose purpose most likely is observation of our life style and environment, according to Weis. Various observers, he said, found the “people” sighted range in height from 3 feet to 8 feet; some speak English and most have a similar appearance to our own. The vehicles themselves range from the size of a 747 jet to a communication device about 3 feet in diameter, apparently sent from a mother ship to detect sound and take photographs. Saucer shapes have been typed as “saturnian,” (resembling the planet Saturn) and “straw hat.” Weis explained that a flying saucer in a horizontal position is momentarily stationary, but when tilted at an angle is ready tor tlight. A tremendous force field surrounding these ships accounts for the fact that 99 percent of the UFO’s that land bum their landing locations, Weis reported. Weis’ documented slide presentation, which included photographs and newspaper articles of reported sightings, showed UFO’s had been spotted all over the world including England, Brazil, Peru, Canada and the United States (from California and New Mexico to Colorado and Ohio, and even Buffalo). Weis said he saw UFO’s in the vicinity of Ken more Avenue and Niagara Falls BWd. — Middle income families have hardest time getting aid College financial aid officers have said it, prestigious educational organizations have said it, and parents have been screaming it: When it comes to financial aid, the college middle-income family gets screwed. If a bill introduced by Senator Charles Percy (R—Dl) is enacted, students from college middle-income families would be tax entitled to substantial deferments in order to defray the costs of a college education. The bill is geared specifically for the middle-income family making between $11,000 and $16,000 per year. Most federal student aid plans, said Percy when he proposed the bill, are geared for students from lower-income families, those making up to about S9.000. ‘This concentration on lower income groups has resulted in little or no financial assistance available for the student from a whose middle-income family needs are just as great.” Percy’s bill bases the distribution of the tax deferments upon the tax liability of the family: that is, tow much tax they are likely to pay. A student from a family making $14,000 a year would be entitled to a tax deferment of more than $1,400. The deferment would be paid back to the government over a (CPS) - period of three years at seven percent interest. A small fortune According to Percy’s statistics, a family could spend between $10,000 and $25,000 to send one child to college for four years. The Entrance College Examination Board estimates that the parents of one-third of next year’s college students will not be able to pay more than $615 a year toward college costs. .Educational institutions, said Percy, often use up all the funds available from federal programs before they reach applications of students from middle-income families. Under Percy’s plan, a family bringing in $14,000 a year is entitled to more than three times the deferment available to a family making approximately half that amount. A middle-income student who wanted to attend a high-cost private school is entitled to a greater tax deferment than h low-income student who might not even be able to afford a local expenses, while middle-income family should not middle-income families have the be penalized financially for expenses of a house*, a second car, wishing to send their child to such a school, since that would be etc., O’Brien explained.

The teaching ot by Dennis M. Patterson The Graduate Student Employee Union (GSEU) was formed In the spring of 1974 to redress grievances of employed graduate students with regard to wages and working conditions. Wages were frozen for Graduate Assistants, (GA's), as well as for graduate Teaching Assistants (TA's) at the 1967 level. Last year, 165 graduate student jobs were cut, leaving many without a source of income, while others are saddled with an increased workload. TA's teach 40 percent of the total University's undergraduate oources, including a majority of freshmen and sophomore courses in many departments. The average pay for these workers is $2889, which is well below the federal poverty level. TA's are required to teach one course. Faculty members, who teach two or three courses, and sometimes assume other University responsibilities, receive from around $10,000 to $40,000 based on senoirity and qualifications. Philosophy is the art of Rational Conjecture.. .• -Bertrand Russell Philo sphere have oftentimes been accused of clouded utterances or mental gymnastics which are of no interest to anyone other than fellow philosophers. As to the validity of this charge, I do not wish to take issue. My case is a simple one and can indeed be presented without ambiguity, academic The validity of philosophy as enterprise has been jeopardized at this' University by the unprecedented slashings of faculty lines in the department. This action calls into question the credibility of the administration as well as the credibility of philosophy itself. And so my case is dear. What 1 wish to present is the case for The GSEU says that "no public employee group has gone so long without a pay increase," and with inflation, many members say they have a difficult time meeting their everyday needs. The Graduate Student Association ({3|9£) has come out publicly in support of the GSEU and its current demands. philosophy. As long as man has been able to drink, he has asked himself basic questions, these questions induded topics that at one time or another were thought to be meaningless queries, but they were asked all the same. These questions seek to ferret out the essence of what it means to be human and to illustrate the basic character that lies at the heart of man. Philosophers have long been concerned with these inquiries and have attempted to cofle to some conclusions. They have asked questions that at times appear odd and at other times strikingly provocative. The quest of philosophy is not a light one and most philosophers have engaged themselves in a lifelong pursuit of truth. The goal of truth is the philosophers’ raison d’etre and discourse is the method. The study of philosophy is an attempt to reach a basic understanding of the world through the use of man's most powerful faculty the mind. Through proper modes of reasoning and trenchant questioning, philosophy seeks an understanding of the world that is perspicuous as well as teachable. The discourse of the philosopher is of no value if it cannot be Yet the Ketter administration has responded to the plight of this important sector of the University with nothing but disrespect and contempt. Ketter recently stated that he did not believe that employed graduate students were "underpaid," or "overworked." Howie Kling. President of GSEU. said at a recam union rally, "I would like to sae Robert Ketter and Hu0i Carey live together in an apartment in Buffalo" on the wages of employed graduate students. For a year and a half, the'graduate students have collected petitions for union recognition, submitted documents to the State's Public Employees Relations Board (PERB), worked diligently to organize the funded graduate students here, and attempted to build support among students, faculty and staff around common needs. — After Ketter repeatedly failed to recognize the GSEU and the interests of employed graduate students, the union drafted five minimal demands to be presented to the University administration. These demands call for: . philosophy is the attempt to communicate share the results of thousands of years of thought. Philosophy is not ; taught to be a pedantic exerdse, that is not the intention of those who teach. Philosophy can only be rewarding when there is a mutual exchange of teacher and “student.” thought between Consequently, this exchange generates one’s own ideas about the world and thought becomes fully actualized once it is clearly understood. ' ’ Philosophy is most properly called the science of man. It is perhaps man’s first science since it attempts to deal with questions which affect man at the most basic level. In the modem age of mankind, individuals tend to be lost in the crowd and hence lose that basic quality of individuality which they deserve to hold amply because they are human. The attempt to deal with man within his social framework is perhaps the key factor which motivates the philosopher. Questions of knowledge and questions of freedom are basic issues which cannot be disregarded. Each man must answer these questions for himself. By the very fact that We are thinking beings, we must pose these questions to ourselves and then attempt to formulate answers. * > ;jy Philosophy is not the single answer to the problem of man, nos is it the only method which enables us to reach the answers to our inquiries. Philosophy exists because man thinks. He thinks and he questions in the hopes that he will someday be able to understand himself as he is. Philosophy offers much in the attempt to gain an insight into what we are as people and what we hope to be. If .the University setting becomes a place where people Can exchange their ideas, then and only then will this necessary exchange of thought take place. If the University does not offer the setting ip which men and women can freely discourse, then all hope of new thought will be stifled. ,, —$4000 minimum wage. —restoration of 165 recently out positions. —assured funding for the duration of degree program, —accident and liability insurance. —affirmative action program to guarantee the hiring of women and minorities. The GSEU is presently circulating petitions to get University-wide support for these demands. They will be presented to Ketter. Wednesday, February 18. and on March 1, the union will hold a campus rally to report on the administration's response. We urge everyone to sign these petitions. This drive is a powerful in the fight to safeguard our current courses and programs from impending reduction or eliminations. weapon Petitions will be circulated in classrooms this week, and will be available from union tables in Norton's Center Lounge, the Ridge Lea Cafeteria building, and in Baldy HaH on the Amherst campus. Filled petitions can be turned in at these sames tables, or at the GSA office, 205 Norton Hall, or to the GSEU. Box 21. Norton Hall.

This University is already so large that I get a feeling there is no student unity, no student or school spirit. Granted, it is partially caused by the administration, but matters would worsen with roughly 35-40,000 students instead of UB’s 27,000. In short, I think you’d better think before suggesting something that would never work. oro-Palestinian publications flourish across the United States. Among these publications is the Middle East Journal. It is a collection of scholarly articles written by pro-Arab professors and individuals. 5 Pro-Arab organizations that are funded by oil revenues receive funds from varied sources. An example of such an otganization is the American Near East Air, Inc. This is a pro-Palestinian organization that seeks to push a pro-Palestinian line on the American public. This organization has received funds from Arabian-American Oil (ARAMCO), Esso Middle East, Esso Standard of Libya, Gulf Oil. Standard 03 of California, Standard 03 of New Jersey (now known as Exxon) and w: Texaco. As qi the past, there is now a danger that America will be used by the oil-blackmailers again.

It has come to my attention that a vote on the marijuana bill will come up within a week or two. This is especially distressing in light of the fact that not too many people have written in favor of decriminalization to their senators and assembly persons. If a bin is to be passed, pressure must be applied to your elected officials Individual letters are much more effective than mere petitions Therefore I strongly urge people to use the following list as a guideline for reasons to support marijuana decriminalization. 1. The penalty for possession of one ounce of marijuana is the same as that of first degree assault, second degree burglary, and second degree manslaughter. ‘ ' 2. Approximately two-thirds of all persons arrested for marijuana in New York Start never committed another crime and were arrested for amounts of less than one ounce. 3. Enforcement of the marijuana laws costs NYS over $40 million annually, and in this time of fiscal austerity., this money could be more wisely spent, 4. i Whereas marijuana possession is a “victimless” crime, decriminalization of marijuana possession would 'enable law enforcement officers to concentrate on crimes involving a victim, such as rape, murder, etc. . 5.

Page seven �Win over Brockport closes skaters season by Larry Amoros Spectrum Staff Writer The hocHey Bulls closed out their 1975—76 home season by skating rings around Brockport at the Tonawanda Sports Center. The Bulls crushed the Golden Eagles 13-2 for their second consecutive win and their sixth triumph in their last seven outings. The victory gives the Bulls a 9-10-1 record this year, and a 7-3-1 mark in Division II play. The victory marks the Bulls’ highest goal production of the season, their previous high being nine goals against New England and Ithaca. The 11 goal spread also marks the Bulls’ widest margin of victgfy £is year. The game did not become a laugher until the second period, when the Buffalo skaters fired six goals into the net, driving Brockport goalie Mike Broadhead to the bench in favor of Ray Demaria, who did not fare much better than his predecessor. Broadhead gave up seven goals in 35 minutes, including four over a two and a half minute span. Demaria yielded the last six tallies during the remainder of the game. Patterson nets winner If luck prevailed in the first period, it was talent that took over in the second, when the Bulls blew the game apart. Freshman center Eddid Patterson scored what proved to be the winner at 10:14 of the middle stanza, when he took a face-off to Broadhead’s right, and walked in alone on the surprised goaltender. His high shot was in the net before Broadhead moved. Patterson’s tally was followed No defensive help The Golden Eagle netminders shortly by Mike Caruana’s first misfortunes were largely due to goal of the season, a slapper from the notable absence of any sort of the right point, which deflected defense. Buffalo’s generally keen off Broadhead’s arm and in. The shooting eye complicated matters goal was also Caruana’s first in also. Four Bulls, Ron Reisweber, EC AC play, and the rookie Ed Patterson, Jack Kaminska and defenseman did a little victory Rick Costello, had two goals dance to celebrate. Four minutes later Broadhead State this weekend. The Bulls was celebrating his merciful travel to Romney Field House for removal after Jack Kaminska beat a pair of games which could well him twice within 20 seconds, and determine their playoff chances. Costello drilled a shot through his If they win both games, they should be in, but that is a task legs For Buffalo goalie Johnny easier said than done. “Oswego present a problem in Moore, the game marked his sixth fact that we’re up there. the straight solid performance, and is a big rivalry, Buffalo-Oswego shots, 23 although he faced only many were dangerously on target. and the two games up there are “There weren’t that many shots, definitely going to be tough,” said but the ones they did have were in goalie Moore. “But I think that good position,” said Moore. “We we are a more capable team than also got a couple of breaks they are,” maintained the Bulls’ tonight,” continued the Bulls’ puckstopper. Center Ray Gruarin agreed netminder. “In the second period, we capitalized in front of the net. with Moore’s assessment of the There weren’t too many times situation, and displayed a similar optimism. “They’re going to be that we missed,” two hard-hitting games, and their place is like a zoo,” said the Bulls—Oswego in weekend set The big story for thfe Bulls bruising sophomore. “But we're though, now centers on their going good now, *md I think we’re upcoming series against Oswego going to keep going good.” Coach -Kelly Assistant confirmed his players attitudes, and suggested the possibility that the games may take longer than regulation time. “UB-Oswego games are always emotional, with close checking. There may be overtime games said Kelly, recalling the two squads’ 4—4 overtime deadlock in Tonawanda last November. “They’re going to be good games with gutsy efforts by both teams.” Healthwise, the Bulls will be invading Oswego in good shape. Both defenseman Tony Scaringo and center Eddie Patterson have recovered from stitches they took against Union. The only casualty is Mike Caruana. The junior defenseman suffered a strained achilles tendon ih the second period against Brockport, but he is expected to be ready for the Oswego series. ” The Chinese udent Assoc. presents: HT ’76 Dragon) 28th at ■ i' 1.

S . - Toughest season for Bulls since Michael became coach by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer After losing to Oklahoma two weeks ago, it was obvious that the wrestling Bulls were going through their toughest season since coach Ed Michael took over six years ago. At that point, the Bulls had a record of 6—5. The major difference between this year’s Bulls and Buffalo teams of the past lies not in the ability of the personnel but rather in the youth of this year’s squad. With only two seniors, the Bulls are nuturing many young freshmen and sophomores. Adding to the strain of this rebuilding process is the team’s admittance into the strong Eastern League. This year’s Bulls have faced some of the top regional NCAA teams for the first time. But since the Oklahoma match two weeks ago the Bulls have upped their seasonal record to 9—7. Although this year’s team record is the worst since Michael’s arrival, one should not lose sight of the fact that the team has maintained a record against winning unfavorable odds Commenting on the team's performance this year, Michael said, “We have been beaten, but we have never been humiliated.” There is a distinct difference between the two. Facing teams the calibre of Penn State, Pittsburgh, Lock Haven State, Clarion State, Syracuse and Oklahoma, the Bulls have done well, in defeat. More recently, in the Bulls’ last five matches, the Bulls have managed three triumphs. At a triangular match at Cortland, Buffalo defeated the Red 20—12. The Bulls were Dragons, led by the pins of Bob Martineck and Paul Grandits, while the superior decision of co-captains Eric Drasgow and Bruce Hadsell beefed up the final tally. At that same match, the Bulls lost to the powerful Syracuse Orangemen 26—11. Despite the loss, the Bulls’ Showing was better than most Orangement counterparts who have fallen this year. Buffalo upset Performing next on their home mat, the Bulls suffered a catastrophic blow when they lost Summer orientation aides Today is the last day to pick up applications for Orientation Aide.

A six to eight week training program (two hours per day) during the spring semester is also required. Summer to an inferior Brockport squad 22-21. A key factor in Buffalp’s loss was a result of two pins against the Bulls. As Michael put it, “There is no excuse for getting pinned.” Unfortunately, other Buffalo wrestlers gave poor showings too and the Bulls suffered their seventh team loss. Disappointed, Michael discussed his team’s performance that day. “This is the first time since I’ve been here that we lost to a team we should have beaten. We’ve beaten teams we never should have, but now I know what the other side of the coin is like,” said Michael. With their backs against the wall, the Bulls again went on the road to a triangular meet against Colgate and Bucknell. The Bulls had to win both matches to have a chance at a winning season. At the outset of the meet, the Colgate announcer stated, “The Bulls’ record is 7—7, but their record is deceiving since they have faced many powerful opponents.” Bulls win big Both Colgate and Bucknell realized how deceiving the Bulls’ record really was after the Bulls devastated them both 29—6 and 38—8, respectively. Obviously the best of the three teams, Buffalo had little trouble disposing of both Colgate, previously 9—4, and Bucknell, 3-i8.' The Bulls turned in such a spectacular performance that they managed at least one win in each weight class. Michael even gave part-timers Ed Tyrrell and Tich Bopp the opportunity to compete. They each responded by winning 1heir decisions. Other single decision to victories were awarded Daymond Clark and Grandits. But the to the Bulls’ key overwhelming victory once again came from the Buffalo wrestlers who have performed consistently well throughout the year. Winning both their matches were middleweight Bulls Tundo, Kirk Anderson, Hadsell, Martineck, and Drasgow. With a record of 9~7, the Bulls will take on Cleveland State this Saturday at 2 p.m. in Clark Hall for their final home appearance of 1976. Monday, 9 February 1976 The Spectrum .

National Board makes study into graduate school aspects Graduate school. The (CPS) itself rings prestige and upward mobility. Put a PhD. behind, your name,.and people will be clamoring for your time and advise. A peaceful life in the isolation of academia awaits graduates of graduate school. Or did, Until a few years ago when grdauate schools starting producing Ph.D.’s much faster than the country needed or wanted them. The college boom of- the sixties when universities needed graduate assistants for teaching and research had faded by then and the economy was closing down on academic research. The debate was on. Should graduate schools continue to turn out specialists who would never find jobs in their fields just for the intellectual purity of the process? Or should graduate schools take notice of the real world and produce only what the economy could bear? The pragmatists who think graduate schools should be relevant beyond the campus boundaries are represented by the National Board on 'Graduate recently Education which published forecasts for graduate students of this decade. To be pessimistic, the report says, as few as one in ten Ph.D.’s will find work teaching at colleges and universities. That means that nine be will of ten out “underemployed” working in trucks, factories and high schools. — name No jobs 1980, one economist By predicted, there will be at least, two Ph.D.’s for every job that is closely related to the education provided in graduate school. The growing scarcity of jobs for people with graduate degrees has borne this out. In 1968, for example, 3.9 percent of Ph.D. recipients in English were jobliess when they got their degrees. In 1973, 21.5 percent were unemployed when their degrees were awarded. The National Board, which has been studying various aspects of graduate education for three years, urged universities and students not to go to graduate school because they think the economic picture will brighten in the next decade. That unrealistic hope will only result in “a wrenching and extremely damaging downward adjustment 1980’s,” the Board in the concluded. The Board prescribed big doses of honest analysis for graduate programs, especially new and undistinguished ones. They also suggested that graduate schools recruit a new clientele from older people who already have jobs in the community. The Board suspected that many graduate school faculty and administrators would resist the “changing emphasis in some graduate programs” suggested by their analysis. Idea dismissed Indeed, deans of 51 major research universities dismissed the idea of designing graduate schools around the manpower demands of the country last November. In a report issued by the Association of Graduate Schools, the deans claimed that such a shift in emphasis from the purely intellectual to the reality of the economy would “violate our tradition of individual choice in a free society.” The individual student, the deans went on to say, should be the “primary determinant of graduate enrollment.” The Graduate Association report admitted that finding jobs for doctorates would be tough in the future and that prospective graduate students should realize the tough competition they would face even with their degrees. But “those who elect to pursue graduate study nonetheless should be welcomed for their disinterested dedication rather than denied the opportunity for advanced study.” The intellectual purists agreed that some changes in graduate schools were inevitable and in some cases welcome. More “non-traditional students” with different kinds of goals would be entering graduate schools and the deans agreed that new programs would have to be designed for them. But the “adjustment process,” they warned, has of “dangers inherent overresponse, of underemphasizing the things that universities do best, and of neglecting the long-range contributions of scholarship.” ' fcssaasssa .

SASU President Bob Kirkpatrick, a non-voting member of the Board of Trustees, asked the panel to delay action on the Parcel B question to allow SA officials time to ensure that students would be sufficiently represented on the UB Foundation, which is charged with overseeing commcrical development in Amherst. The UB Foundation, incorporated to promote private support for the University, reportedly took on the planning of Parcel B because it is the only financial branch of the University with the resources to raise the initial credit necessary for the project. The projected completion date for Parcel B is September, 1977. Nonsense People who care? Med School admission hinges on the interview Kirkpatrick became concerned over SA’s difficulties in securing student representation on the UB Foundation after receiving a letter from President Michele Smith and Director for Student Activities Doug Cohen. The letter requested time to negotiate with the UB Foundation before SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer begins signing contracts “They had apparently been told that the Board of Trustees would not approve a contract if there were students on the UB Foundation, and that’s a lot of nonsense,” Kirkpatrick explained. He said the Trustees were willing to delay action on the Parcel B question “only for a reasonable amount of time,”* and expects the subject to be reintroduced at the Trustees’ next meeting on Wednesday. He pointed out that when the Parcel B enterprises are in operation, the UB Foundation wih function “like a Faculty-Student Association (FSA) only on a grander scale,” providing “auxiliary services” for students. FSA presently runs-such campus operations as Food and Vending Services, Norton Hall Recreation and the University Bookstores. Assurances Cohen feels the chances of securing student representation on the UB Foundation are very good. He said he has been assured by UB Foundation President Jack Latona that student input in running the Parcel B developments is an idea he [Latona] supports. Latona reaffirmed his support in an interview with The Spectrum earlier this year, alluding to the possibility of a student position on the UB Foundation Board. Cohen said SA would like to see a clause in the —continued on page 2— Spectrum Staff Writer “We’re looking for people who care for other people, people who aren’t coRI turkeys,” said Douglas Surginor, Chairman of Admissions at the University of Buffalo Medical School, at a meeting of the Association of Professional Health Oriented Students (APHOS). The first screening made by any medical school admissions committee is an evaluation of a student’s intellectual ability, Surginor said. Grade point averages (overall and science), individual course grades and scores on the Medical College Admission Tests (MCAT’s) allow the committee to measure.the applicant’s academic ability. It is essential that the applicant maintain superior scholarship at the undergraduate level to assure achievement at the graduate level. Once in medical school, the student will face 26-33 scheduled class hours of pure science per week during his first two years. Personality evaluation The second screening is an evaluation of an applicant’s personality. “Admission committees look for students who want to help others,’’ said Surginor. “We’re looking for people who can give a commitment to help solve national problems like health care delivery.” He said that applicants should be aware of current medical event! or controversies like abortion and malpractice insurance. Included in this screening process is an evaluation of the applicam written by the pre-med office at his college. The pre-med student may also write an essay, but this is not required. Most of the admission committee’s evaluation results from private interview with the applicant. At this interview, the applicam must try to make a positive impression on the interviewers. “It’s how you and the interviewer get along,” claimed Surginor. “It’s a question of whether or not you can turn him on. It may be that simple.” “Everybody’* getting A’i” Surginor referred to a list made by the Dean of the UCLA Medical School, published in the November issue of Medical Economics of seven attributes an applicant should exhibit during his interview. They include; curiousity, optimism, flexibility, idealism, horse sense, integrity and warmheartedness. < Surginor also spoke about the problems of admission: “Everybody’s getting A’s,” he declared. He said that grade inflation makes it much harder to make fine distinctions among applicants. It’s a problem for both the admission committees as well as those applying. “It squeezes everything together,” Surginor complained. Most of the problems with medical school admissions are caused by the large number of applicants. There are approximately three applicants for every available seat, and on the average, there are ten applications for each applicant. As a result; medical schools must review thousands of applications for a limited number of places. For example, the Medical School here sees about 4500 applications for only 135 seats. These are overwhelming odds an applicant must face. .. Tuition increase .. Another problem is that many medical schools admit a large percentage of students within their own geographic area, and in particular, their own ytate. In the ten private medical schools in New York State, 40 to 50 —continued on page 2— Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti has once again blocked expenditures of student mandatory activity fees, this time for the Saturday morning Dental Clinic which is open only to students. The clinic services members of the community Monday through Friday. Lorenzetti directed Sub Board Health Care Division Director, A1 Campagna, to rewrite the proposal for the Saturday clinic, placing greater emphasis on its educational aspects. Second thoughts In a related development, members of the Board of Directors of Sub Board were reportedly reconsidering their pledge to complain formally to if the SUNY Chancellor and Board Ketter did not release funds to pay the pharmacy bills. The pharmacy is about $5000 in debt and may be forced to close soon if no accord is reached. The Dental School, Sub Board, and Campagna all approved the original proposal when the clinic opened in October. Ketter is demanding that the pharmacy license be transferred from Sub Board to the University before he releases funds for its operaztion. This is the third time within a single year Although Sub Board gave Ketter until last Monday at noon to unfreeze, the money for the pharmacy, the deadline came and went with no word from the President and no immediate complaint from Sub Board. Lorenzetti has exetcised the power of administrative review over student fee expenditures, as outlined in SUNY Board of Trustee guidelines, to question whether a particular use of the fee falls within the guidelines. , Last April Lorenzetti blocked expenditures for buses to a rally in Albany supporting the Attica defendents.

Since the relatively unknown Chief Minister W.D. Mohammed was appointed to lead the Nation ofIslam, he has instituted many important changes which have shaken the black community. And, as Minister Farrakhan said, referring to the Muslims in the United States, “we were shook.” Much speculation arose last year when people learned that Elihah Mohammed, founder of the Nation of Islam, was stricken pneumonia, bronchial with Farrakhan told the audience. The world asked, “Who will be the new leader?” and “Will the organization perish with its thought Some leader?” or Minister Muhammed Ali Farrakhan would be the one to assume power. Others predicted violence. “Lord, child, we in for trouble now. Them people gonna be cutting and shooting all over the country.” i In the following months, many changes were made. The Muslim newspaper, Muhammed Speaks, was renamed Bilalian News, with a striking new layout. The dress code for women was altered, allowing them to appear in public traditional without their uniforms. Certain freedoms were were instituted that the misinterpreted. However, biggest shock came when WJ). Muhammed announced whites would now be considered for membership. People reacted as if an earthquake had hit. ‘Father to son’ W.D. Muhammed ascended to the leadership on February 26, one day after his father’s death was announced. Yet, the doubters were not satisfied. It’s just a “dynasty," “father to son, father to son,” they said. But Minister Farrakhan pointed out this was a false issue. The question should have been, is the man qualified? Muslim leadership had been well aware of his qualifications long Resounding no This was the process Minister before the world or even the rank-and-file believers'knew W.D.

Surginor reported that about 40 percent of the freshman class here live in New York, west of Syracuse. Those who are not accepted may face financial problems. Like many colleges and universities, medical school tuitions are on the rise. The Medical School at this University raised its tuition for state residents by $400 to $2000 per year. This is a relatively small amount when compared with private medical schools. George Washington University Medical School recently raised its tuition to $15,000 per year. Special preference During a question and answer period, Surginor said the male-female ratio of acceptance is proportional to the ratio of applications, indicating that women are not favored. However, many minority applicants are admitted with lower grade point averages and lower MCAT scores. “Standards are only lowered in measurements of intellectual ability,” said Surginor. “We have to ask, were they (minority applicants) intellectually disadvantaged?” Medical schools operate on the premise that they are. “That problem should disappear with time and we are seeing that.” Th* personality screening process remains the same, he maintained. Asked whether this University’s graduates receiye special preference on the part of the Medical School here, Surginor said that only 14 of the 135 students in the current freshman class graduated from this University, but added, “We would like to see more than _ Bailey speaks of propaganda than they want, a Palestinian state would not solve the problem. It would irritate the situation, by Faith Prince Staff Writer Spectrum according to Bailey, by simply providing a foothold which would be used to pressure Israel. “They don’t want the West Bank or Gaza,” Bailey insisted. “They want a foothold to get Jaffa, Haifa, Ramla Although be admitted the Palestinian plight is a very real one, he argued that the proposed solution negates the Israeli cause, which he, as a lew and Israeli supporter feels is infinitely more important. He sees the attempt to create a parallel between the Jewish and Palestinian exiles as absurd. “These people belong to a Moslem-Arab world,” he said, “No such cultural environment existed for the exiled Jew. “Arab propaganda,” and the necessity of dealing with it were the topics of a lecture by Clinton Bailey of the Tel Aviv and Hebrew Universities Monday night. Bailey’s appearance was sponsored by the Israel Information Center,. After writer Cyhthia Ozick, the originally scheduled speaker, cancelled due to a snowstorm in New York City. Bailey spoke of tbe danger inherent in the wide acceptance of platitudes which he contends have no basis in fact. In particular, he attacked the assumption that a Palestinian state must be created to exist side-by-side with Israel in order to have peace in the Middle East. This idea basically appeals to two groups, he explained. First, those who are unrealistic about the necessary components of a viable state, and secondly, those who feel that Israel has no right to exist in the first place. “There will never be peace if the Palestinians get independence,” Bailey stated. He pointed out that a state consisting of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank would have no economic viability. Gaza is extremely overcrowded, and all the available natural resources stretched to the limit. The West Bank is desolute, he continued, and also undeveloped. Much of the inhabitants’ income is derived from labor performed outside the area i.e. in Israel. .. __ anchored “It can’t be both ways. If they get what they want we can’t get what we want.” Bailey vehemently rejected the viewpoint that Israel has no right to exist,.but nevertheless, viewed it as a real threat. He stressed that the Jews must stubbornly cling to what they have, and build their state population-wise as well as technologically. Only when there is a heavily-populated Jewish state which appears immoveable will the campaign to destroy Israel subside, he declared. ‘They know what they want and they’re all mobilized. But they can only get what they want when they tire out the other side. They can also be tired out,” he concluded. He stressed that this tiring-out process will not take place through mere waiting, but through seeing that an Israel exists which is too strongly anchored in the Middle East to be moved. In the long run, he said, this is the answer which will silence Israel’s opponents.

Lie everybody else The idea of student-run businesses occupying space in the development has been suggested, Cohen said. He said Latona assured him the student-run services “will be considered like everyone else” who seeks a place in the development. One prime consideration, he added, will be the service’s ability to pay the rent for the space, presumably ruling out any special studcnfdiscount on rental fees. Earlier this year. Sub Board I, Inc. wrote to Latona about securing s6me space in the development. The correspondence, according to a Sub Board spokesperson requested consideration for “space” in the commerical development when facilities become available. According to Latona, he saw no “legal or philosophical reasons” to prevent Sub Board from becoming involved in the project. However, he stressed that those businesses which already contacted the UB Foundation will be the first to be considered for space. Use offee .7—. Dental), funds UUAB, student publications. Health Care Division, and other services. Its Board of Directors consists of officers from the different student associations. Avoiding trouble Members of the Board of Directors' apparently began reconsidering the decision to go above Ketter’s head in favor of further efforts toward compromise and out of fear that a complaint would bring Sub Board into conflict with even less accommodating officials than Ketter. The reconsideration may also be a necessary step toward exhausting all possible means of redress at the local level before Sub Board appeals to a higher authority. Sub Board Executive Director Tom VanNortwick and Board Chairman James Smalley had scheduled a meeting Monday with several administrators from the Division of Student Affairs, including Lorenzetti. Ketter was not expected to attend. The results of the meeting were not available at press time. In the past few months, the Ketter administration has been carrying out an unannounced policy of systematically questioning projects and services funded with mandatory student activity fees. - Growing list In addition to the actions already mentioned, the Ketter administration has, since last November, —reduced by one-half the volume of sales projected at the SA Record Coop following a complaint by Cavages Record Stores which said the Coop's existence on a state-operated campus pose “ruinous competition” (Cavage has asked the State Supreme Court to order the Coop closed); -withheld approval of a one year contract between SA and the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG), claiming the wording of the contract involving the services NYPIRG suuplies to the student body is vague; -requested to begin reviewing expenditures of TheSpectrum. The agreement to operate the Saturday morning Dental Clinic differs from that for the student pharmacy in that Sub Board is simply asking to underwrite the SI0,000 expense of keeping the dental clinic open for students Saturday mornings while Sub Board is asking to retain control of the pharmacy license besides paying the bills. Decision to be made about student pharmacy by ffike McGuire ' Campus Editor A decision on whether the Sub Board student pharmacy will remain open will be reached during the “next several days,” President Robert Ketter told the Faculty Senate at its meeting Tuesday in Hayes Hall. Ketter said he conceived the student role in the pharmacy to be “primarily a clerkship.” He reiterated his demand that Sub Board turn the license over the University, an action, the directors refused to carry out last week, and that the pharmacy be open only to students. Ketter also told the Faculty Senate that, despite its recent vote favoring certain types of exclusion from classes providing it was “non-ividious,” he though a directive from the SUNY Board of Trustees against exclusion should be interpreted strictly. Thus, Ketter said he refuses to recognize any grounds for exclusion from classes. Writing course tabled The exclusion issue came up when Women’s Studies College was forced to open five all-women courses to men, after the administration threatened to drop them from the registration computer if they remained exclusionary. Ketter promised the Faculty Senate that the report of the Committee on Academic Planning would be released within the next week. He also said that he was deferring a decision on whether to approve a Faculty Senate motion restricting the use of pass-fail grading until he consults with Dean Charles Ebert of the Division of Undergraduate Education. In other action, the Faculty Senate sent a proposal for a Basic Writing Course for freshmen back to committee for further study. While many of the members present said they supported such a course in some form, there were considerable differences over its exact set-up. P i tabled In votes which were non-binding because a quorum was not present at the time, a majority opposed the course being pass-fail, as had been proposed by the committee. By a 21-19 non-binding vote, members narrowly supported the course being mandatory for all freshmen. However, all but four members supported some form of basic writing course when they were polled on the issue. The Basic Writing Course was proposed by a committee headed by English professor John Dings, in response to complaints by some faculty members that students are deficient in language skills. As proposed by the committee, all freshmen would be required to take the course, which would be taught by professors from a number of departments and which would have mandatory pass-fail grading. The Faculty Senate did not take any action on another committee's proposal which would clear up some of the ambiguities in the current use of “Permission of Instructor” in registering for classes.

Buff State Protest against budget cuts Students at Buffalo State College will stage a massive state-wide demonstration at 12 noon today to protest SUNY budget in cuts announced Governor Hugh Carey’s budget. Students from all over the SUNY system as well as local community groups are expected to take part in the march that will begin in front of Rockwell Hall on Elmwood Avenue and proceed down Elmwood to City Hall. Student . Association (SA) President Michele Smith stated that while she supports the idea of the march she feels it will have little impact, and thus, SA is not playing a major role. She feels that at the present time, losses in student services should be the immediate concern because students can have direct impact on that situation. “While we can be out there marching, other services can be pulled right from under our feet,” she said. Student input Meanwhile, the Buffalo State United Student Government IUSG1. has worked along with their College’s Faculty-Student Senate to insure that students have some say in how the cuts may be absorbed there. Maria Scapione.

This University has attempted to deal with its portion of the state-wide cutbacks by setting up specific committees to determine the criteria for making reductions. The President’s Committee on Budgetary Criteria, which released its yesterday’s findings in Reporter, has attempted to set up “some sort of yard stick or measuring device for Judging all kinds of University Programs,” according to Committee Chairman Charles Fogel.

As usual The Spectrum has distorted the facts; case concerning the role of the School of this in Pharmacy in the operation of the pharmacy in the Student Health Service. I would like to clarify our potion. 1. The School at no time wished to hold the license for the pharmacy, nor to undertake fiscal responsibility for its operation. We had no funds available for this purpose. Our sole interest in the pharmacy is its 2. availability as one site for clinical clerkships for our students. We therefore do wish to exercise some control over the character of the professional services offered and of the caliber of the professional staff. This is the case at all sites where bur students will be in training. At the present time we are not able to 3. utilize community pharmacies as training sites, contrary to a statement in The Spectrum. We will assure not only the highest caliber 4. of professional services, but also that prolessional ethics are strictly adhered to. For example, wc consider it unethical to solicit professional practice through advertising prices of drugs. This is true no matter who holds the license. It is true that advertising of prescription drug prices is illegal in New York State, the daw being based on the fact that such advertising is often misleading to the public who are generally not knowledgeable about the character of professional services involved. Whether or not that law is repealed, misleading the public is unethical and will not be allowed by us in any site in which our students are involved. We frankly hope the matter of the license is settled quickly by the parties involved, so that the students on this campus, may continue to have available to them the highest possible caliber of pharmacy service. Michael ,-t. Schwartz. PhD Dean. School oj Pharmacy — Although no administrator will acknowledge it publicly, Ketter and Assistant Vice President Anthony Lorenzetti are taking guidelines which are deliberately vague, which allow for a great deal of flexibility, and interpreting them in the strictest way possible. Each week as the snowball picks up momentum, we find that the reasoning and the tactics used by the adminstration in questioning activities one by one are quite objectionable. Rather than approaching a particular service first, the adminstration, oblivious to any interpretation of the mandatory fee guidelines other than its own, disrupts the functioning of the operation by manipulating the flow of student money and then proceeds to the bargaining table. This way, if students offer any demands, the administration has safer, more resistance to threatening ground to fall back on. Invisible overload To the Editor. Robert Ketter is not a very well-liked individual on this campus. Many of his actions, especially during the last few weeks, have been attacked by The Spectrum. He has been east as the underlying cause of many of the problems at this University. Ketter has taken measures which seem unjustified. However, the real issue is Iris unwillingness to communicate to the thousands of students he presides over. Ketter seems to have no desire to dispose of the unpopular image he has gained through “publicity" in The Spectrum. The fact that he makes no attempt to challenge anything printed in our newspaper leads the student to believe one of two things. Hither the stories in The Spc-ctruui are basically true, or the opinions of Hie student body are so unimportant l<b him that he sees no point in clarifying his position. Robert Ketter is a sort of mystery man to many of the students at this University. I feel I may finish four years here and never see our president, aside from the caricatures in The Spectrum. I do not see Ketter as a president, but as an overlord. He is a threat to our rights rather than a defender of them. Would it be expecting too much to occasionally see the man who holds ultimate power over University affairs'? I suggest that he come out of seclusion, dispell the mystery surrounding him (does he actually exist'?), and clarify his position on issues presently in the spotlight. Ketter must have reasons for his actions. The fact that he does not express them leads me to believe his reasons are not in the best interest of the student body. For instance, how much do outside business interests affect his decisions concerning the Record C’odp. student pharmacy and NYPIRG-SA? Also, how can he make decisions which will directly affect the students when he has little or no interaction with them? I would be interested in knowing Mr. Ketter’s background, how he attained his present office, and what is keeping him there. I wonder if there is an opportunity, as well as a need, for change. As things stand, something seems terribly wrong. The Spectrum is obviously directed toward the The fact that the Record Coop was shut down before and therefore slanted in. their lav or.

I ride the buses every day and have noticed student. As a matter of fact, you pay for a bus ride none of this intolerable service even at rush hours. Have you forgotten that Ridge Road bailed us out at most universities across the country. Secondly, this is a bus service and not a taxi when Blue Bird went on strike? Their drivers are service. You can’t expect to take your time getting pleasant and courteous and deserve a little respect as a class, saunter out to the bus stop and well as some of the business.

For that aren’t the only ones who have to ride school buses, matter, nothing says we can’t walk now if we aren't you know. High school seniors have had to stand on satisfied with the service.

Danca wOuld History," a Dance in "The Rise of Social American Significance In lecture/slide presentation sponsored by the Speakers Bureau and the that led UUAB Dance Committee, Selma Jean Cohen retraced die from dance as an escapist art to that which stems from and portrays America the reflections of its people. Cohen began her history career in pursuit of a ballet of social significance. Her search was unwillingly ended when she was forced to ■admit that there was no such ballet. Instead, she set out to find out •> — why. In the eighteenth century, America celebrated its first classical ballet dancer, John Nurang. He wanted to impress upon his audience an air of elegance, but in truth appeared more like a harlequin than anything else. Regardless, the matter of style was settled. Europe was in, and American was unheard of. European style "All of the subjects for dancers came frpm Europe, especially France. No one was interested in doing anything American from the arts. The audience didn't seem to want anything else," Cohen recounted. By the end of that century, dancers were performing little patriotic skits, but although the theme was now different, technique was still the same. A noted dancer during this period was George Washington Smith. Dance became more popular in this country as the years went by, the major talent centers being the East Coast down to New Orleans, and certain mid-western cities like St. Louis. Touring companies would travel across the country, picking up performers as they went along. Choreographers would often look for local girls and turn them into "stars" for short durations. The girls were instructed to "skip, skip, and then poke around." Obviously hop, run, run, pose and balance this in the mid-nineteenth century, during period professional too not the function of dance as a performing art was actually a divertissement for after-theatre. Once a play was over, the dance would begin, and most dances were listed in playbills. — Fairyland The dance stage became a fairyland, decorated by delicate, floating and flowery women. Young girls "flew" across the stage, supported by wires; The entire scenerio was similar to that of Ziegfeld's Follies, {•something "for tired businessmen," Cohen quipped. s& T In the.years that,followed, ballet maintained its classical styles of performance. Dancers leaped for the stars, distant and yet still bound by the prescribed ballet vocabulary. Toes remained pointed, legs were turned out, and the motion was forward and upward. In the early 1920's, an actress, Loie Fuller received a gift from a friend. The gift was a sari, and the woman became infatuated by its change of colors under different lights. On stage she manipulated shape and light to enhance her costume, changing the focus of her dance, ■ ' experimenting. At the age of 8, Isadora Duncan announced to her ballet teacher, don't "I like this, I think it's ugly, goodbye," forever leaving the realm of ballet. Modernizing dance and freeing it, she was entirely self-taught and self-obedient. She fully believed that everyone could be beautiful and at peace with their own lives; she believed that anyone could dance. Free dance style However, not everyone believed the same of Isadora. "Ballet people said that she had no technique, and most Americans never forgave her for her free life style," related Cohen. "But there was a simplicity. She was a great parable of a new freedom in America; poets, painters and artists knelt at her feet." "People who saw Isadora dance have told me, 'I can't tell you what she did, but I'll never forget it'." Like Isadora Duncan, Ruth St. Denis did not have a very enhanced insisted upon a "more noble, spiritual dance," something more than "step, step, kick." She would isolate an event, person, or photograph, transcending her own artistic era, striving for simplicity and purity. Upon viewing Hindus on the Coney Island boardwalk or posters of Egyptian deities in a drugstore, she would invent dances Inspired by the ideas of these subjects, emphasizing that they were not the actual, original dances. She hailed herself as a goddess, and her dances often placed women on pedestals. technique, but instead f 'Spasms and jerks' The Denishawn Company, among others, finally discovered that twentieth century Americans ought not to be solely voyeurs, but more importantly, the subjects of the dances they witnessed. Martha Graham, who was described as that "angular woman who moves in spasms and jerks," reflected her movements on current American society. In order to create a new dance form, she felt it necessary to withdraw into the primitive mysteries, to seek one's own roots. Her movements were not pretty like the French dancers', but were instead strong and heavy. Her motion was earth-bound, recognizing gravity and the earth as good. Even her jumps were heavy, as if working against gravity, instead of denying it. In "Frontier," Graham celebrates vastness and the future. When the dancer in this piece slowly lifts her leg, it is not to exhibit turn out, but rather to give a feeling of space. Graham began her company using as little movement as possible, and then slowly built up, adding scenery and costumes. continued on page 12 } i, Vi UVj'J O , �I V Our Weekly Reader ¥ Dennis Smith. The Final Fire (Saturdiy Review Press/E.P. Dutton & Co., $7.95, fiction, 239 pp.) I used to work in a small printing shopf. There was only one odd thing about it; nearly feveryone employed except me -t was, or had been at one time, a there fireman. A volunteer fireman. The kind who would, in Kurt Vonnegut Jr.'s words, "take to the Woods with hunting knives and Springfields" if the Russians ever invaded the United States. Jf In the four years I worked there I was regarded with special tenderness since I was just a gink, a mere boy in the midst of a throng of pyrotechnical wizards, all of them straightforward and manly. Still, despite my special state of innocence, I soon learned to steel myself against both the horror and sentiment of one particular civilian variation on the war story: the fire story. Finely detailed fire anecdotes were hastily grafted onto every open-ended conversation. I heard a lot of stories and I learned a lot more than is decent about fires. In all that time, while I myself was studying literature in school, there was only one publishing event that struck any of my fellow workers as significant or exciting; in February 1973, Dennis Smith's first book. Report from Engine Co. 82, appeared in paperback. (It had appeared in hardback exactly a year before, but who could afford to buy a copy?) Report was an instant favorite. Everybody had a copy, which he would jealously read at lunch time. Virtually all conversation ceased, disappearing in a puff of literary smoke. For the American volunteer fireman it was the little red book. Not only was it written by a professional, but it was written by a big city professional. Irritating visions of brush fires and smoldering mattresses and hot dog stand grease fires shimmered and rose up like heat waves on a desert road, revealing an imaginary paradise of authentic disaster. For my friends it was a real literary event. The only — apartment, whom he lived in a North Bronx was constantly chiding him and thought he was a failure for not taking any one girl seriously. Dominic was a chest beater about being single. He loved the life of a bachelor, the life of a bachelor fireman, and often teased the other men about being chained to a wife, a house, a family. "Life is too short," he would say, "to give this sweetheart up to just one woman." .<> Like Leslie Fiedler's ur-cowboy the figure of Dominic Gallo embraces a fascinating paradox; at the same time he is virile to an extreme, he is essentially asexual. It is not surprising that Gallo surfaces at the end of The Final Fire to turn back the tide of the reckless strike which threatens the ruin of entire city. Yelling "automatically, naturally," he broke from a picket line and ran towards a burning building to help. His flight is emblematic of Smith's flight from words and abstractions (the strike debate) to action and heroism and suspense. Even the tress in Central Park had started to burn. v In effect, everybody followed Dominic. ~an — I other ' " * " v . firemen moved alas, quickly, spontaneously, as if a wall had been lifted from in front of them, releasing the trapped fury of their dilemma, resolving their anxiety, transforming it to action. The The Ritter brothers, Tom and Jerry, represent the “Everyman" in this proletarian morality play. Both are pointedly articulate; Jerry writes more poetry than he reads (which is a great deal) and he can quote Dylan Thomas at the drop of a firehat; Tom has a college degree and is subject to at least one recurring nightmare of other side of kind. Now Dennis Smith's second book, The Final Fire, has appeared. It is a novel. have not been back to the printing shop since was laid off a year ago, but wonder now if anyone is reading Dennis Smith this time. Somehow doubt it. The beauty of Smith's first book was that it was a memoir which read like a good adventure novel without the liability of actually being one; it was fast, accurate and and compellingly written. But The Final Fire is a novel I I I I novel. Instead of celebrating a brotherhood of workers as the prototype worker's novels of the 30's did, Smith's novel deliberately celebrates the brotherhood of all men as the higher form of togetherness. In doing this, of course, he risks the pat simplicities and lurking absurdities of any sentimental interpretation of human events. Certainly all this right cardboard cutouts are evident, masquerading as real people as they wobble on and off the stage: the overweight journalist looking for a good fire story, the aging fire chief who is only a few clotted heartbeats away from retirement to Ireland just as disaster strikes, the moronic and corrupt union official; the young mayor of New York with the liberal demeanor and the political heart; and Dom Gallo himself, whose heart is as big as a - I — a series of blunders and miscalculations during negotiations for a contract, frustrated firemen go out on strike one morning (not realizing their votes were miscounted purposefully). And because of a series of freaks and accidents, within an hour New York City is threatened with extinction by fire. The final fire. The last part of the book is excellently written, in the best tradition of suspense fiction, and of all the disaster films and books to sweep into the book market, The Final Fire is easily the most believable. (To this day, Dennis Smith is an active firefighter in New York City.) But in order to get to these gripping last pages the reader has to slog through what amounts to a dramatized union-hall dialectic. And in the truest proletarian-literary fashion, this underlying dialectic has the distinct air of an old morality play, in which God and the Devil battle for the soul of its dramatic worth; through Everyman. In this case "Everyman" has two separate but complementary masks: the fused personalities of two firefighting brothers (Tom and Jerry Ritter) and Smith's composite rendition of the essentiaI fireman in the person of huge, tough and big-hearted Dominic Gallo: He was 34 years old, and although his mother, with Jerry rejoins the firefighters too late and comes upon his brother's body. Within minutes he is making a tearful speech in front of a mobile television camera. (' He loved to read, he loved to play with his children, he loved his job , . .") It is obviously the moment Dennis Smith has flawlessly arranged for us, after drawing our sensibilities through the corrupt miasma and confusion of union politics. Jerry's speech represents the moment in The Final Fire at which the book's ideas merge with its sentimental making it finally look like what it really underpinings .has been all along: not a proletarian novel, but a "popular" — though it reads nearly as well as the first book, imagine readers like my old friends are understandably suspicious, they are looking for the same utility and authenticity they found in Report From Engine Co. 82. By and large, they will finds these qualities, which were not replaced when Smith shifted into a fictional gear. But they will have to look harder. Story and action and detail are still important to Dennis Smith, as they were in the first book, but in The Final Fire, there is only one and it is drawn central story (not a series of episodes) out beyond brightness of innocence, all pain momentarily past and . forgotten. roast beef allegorical clarity. Both brothers are outrageously brave, are competent men of action, but both operate at a slight remove from the gaudy outward affection the other men display The two brothers are distinct in one important way; Jerry is a gay bachelor whose mental processes swing back and forth as wildly as his love affairs. (He finally settles on the pro-strike side of the issue.) Tom is married, has a family outside the city, and is happy with his wife in such a way that is only possible in popular books these days. (He steadfastly elects to break the strike and fight fires.) Naturally enough, while everyone else is in effect "considering the political aspects of it," Tom Ritter needlessly dies in a nickel-and-dime fire. At the end "just as he always expected he would," Tom dreams of his wife in the picture with the English pram and their newborn son, her brown hair flowing, her face radiating in the — artd just as hard to imagine these days. Dennis Smith, working fireman and novelist, is one of the few genuine American writerx today who operate in anything close to the old proletarian literary tradition devised by the likes of Mike Gold in the 20's and 30's. (Joseph Wambaugh is another one that comes to mind; and Mike Cherry.) And like his predecessors (the final example of whom was the Steinbeck of Cannery Row and The Grapes of Wrath), Smith seems to have discovered the true roots of the proletarian tradition in the space of one novel: when all the boiling and bubbling is over, what is left is a rich extract of pure sentiment. But at the same time, Smith represents all <the finest qualities of the proletarian tradition as well: authentic technical detail, believable male banter, suspenseful action that can only be the product of real experience, and (snagged in the matrix of ideas) some damned good stories. —Corydon Ireland Corydon Ireland is Book Editor of The Spectrum and a teaching fellow in the English Department.

The present owners are the Friends of the Buffalo Theatre. The theatre is re-opening undering the directorship of Curt Mangel as a community center in support of the performing arts in Buffalo, and responsive to public interest. This status is vital to the operation of the palace, as it seats over 3,200 people. Unfortunately, an orientation towards profit often means negligence and corner-cutting right through to the heart, resulting in the demise of so many of Buffalo's finest old buildings. (The Buffalo Theatre is now listed in the National Register of Historic Places.) The dimension of the house are spectacular. The domed ceiling, fashioned after one in a European opera house, peaks at 89 feet. The stage is 65 feet wide, will be expanded to 60 feet deep, and is fronted by a pit which can seat a full orchestra of pleased musicians. The proscenium can be elevated, and contains the only remaining original conductor's podium of that era. The sound system is good the balcony needed no supporting pillars and the rich tones of one of the finest Wurlitzer organs ever built will reach the ears of everyone in the house. Also beginning its fifty-first year, this orchestral organ resonates to the tone of over 2,000 pipes, another marvel justifying a visit to the Buffalo Theatre.

As demonstrated on the first two albums, Jim Messina had put together a really good studio ensemble, one which contained enough talent and instrumental diversity to outplay many of its guitar-ridden country-rock contemporaries. The refreshing mix of two songwriting styles, augmented by precise harmonies and infinitely varied backing arrangements was a great moneymaker, as it rightly deserved to be. However, the occasionally brilliant songwriting and-unique harmonies soon gave way to schmaltiy pop and fifties-rock influences, and the successive albums are notable only for Messina's still-active talents as producer and arranger. With the release of Native Sons, Loggins and Messina have entered the realm of groups like Chicago and the Ooobie perpetually mediocre, dressed up like Brothers 1850's prospectors on the cover, nice Americana sleeve design, etc. very cute, no? Kenny and Jim no longer seem to be collaborating much on singing or songwriting, and sound the large complement of backup musicians bland and predictable. Although the production is Still as clean and professional as ever, the arrangements sound weak, repetitive and uninspired. The 10 new songs on Native Sons present nothing at all out„of the ordinary. Rather than experimenting with unusual acoustic textures as he has in the past, Messina is sticking pretty much to namely, too much electric sounds already heard guitar and horns. Although a slight musical disappointment, the album does have its moments of true idiocy; there is a Jim Messina song entitled "Boogie Man" which $115.50 — I | ALSO AVAILABLE: I LESSONS, TENNIS, SA UNA. SWIMMING POOL. ICE SKA TING MEAL PLAN CROSS COUNTR Y.SKIING | offers, to the tune of "Johnny B. Goode," the following lyrics: There was a time when boogie was the law of the land And everybody boogied from New York to Spokane Even little babies, even before they could speak Could do the’boogie-woogie just from feelin' the beat So if you really want to boogie You better begin by getting up on your feet "It's All “Right," another Messina song, is a sort of protest number, and amazing in that it came from the same pen as "Same Old Wine" and "Golden Ribbons" both formidable works of dissent. It looks like Messina has decided that, since there is no more Vietnam, the oil shortage is the thing to sing about and he does, using the very poetic analogy of a case of constipation: - The Arabs sell us our petroleum jelly A little dab at a time And I guess It's all righ t. There's always Mazo I a So keep yourself a bottle at home But / guess it's all right. Cause Washington's working. Power to the porcelain throne . ... .. As if that isn't bad enough, the opening segment the of the song -contains a buy-centennial salute vbices of Our American Forefathers, reading famous historical documents.

The songs “My Lady, My Love," and "Foxfire" are pleasant (for lack of a better word) and prove that, although Loggins is not going anywhere musically, he is at least not getting bad as fast as his partner. It is probably safe to say that Native Sons will not get any AM air play (it is already not getting any FM airplay) but maybe Kenny and Jim will get the hint and get back on tbe creative track they seem to have lost a few years back.

Whether it's been bassist Graham Gouldman scribbling such commerical '60's successes as “Heart Full of Soul" for the Yardbirds and "Bus Stop" for the Hollies or lead guitarist Eric Steward warbling the lead vocal on the Mindbenders' "Groovy Kind of Love," the lOcc's members have been industrious inhabitants of the fickle and transient scene, of contemporary music.

How Dare You! finds lOcc continuing its priestly duties in bestowing the holiest of sacraments upon lyric and melody. The nature of lOcc's songs often takes the form of whimsical and pungent vignettes that disclose telling commentaries on current life. lOcccan inject the sarcastic, jaded tone of an Evelyn Waugh or package a song with a surprise ending similar to an O'Henry short story.

A man calls up his estranged wife in hopes of rekindling some flames of love but turns up only The lyrics reveal a glories of smash records and the pleasures of being inundated by a waterfall of greenbacks and royalties.

"Society's Child," her first hit, came out in the mid-60's, when we were teenagers and so was she, and it was good to hear someone who sounded so intelligent singing to us. I was still too young to hit the Fillmore by myself (matinees being out of vogue), too young, as I remember, to buy drugs without begging and, the Strawberry Alarm Clock an advance on my allowance notwithstanding, there wasn't all that much good music around that I coujd relate to very well. But Janis didin't sound so self-sufficient either; "when we're older, things may change," she wailed, and we certainly knew what she meant. Then we got older, and we stopped listening. Maybe just because or maybe it was the other way around. she stopped recording Between the Lines last year awfully young to When she released it was as a have retired and come back already, but life is strange woman speaking to other women. It sounds obvious, but it isn't when Janis sings about life, it's her life, and few singers have managed to be so personal and so effective at the same time. Aftertones, her latest old collection, draws on the same very basic sorts of experience dreams, frustrated passions and so forth. But the interpretations she gives her fairly common problems turn them into extraordinary, if minor, bits of musical poetry. Janis still writes with the same ambivalence, the old uncertainty in her first album. She hasn't yet decided whether she has displayed she anything to be optimistic about, but she tries. Her lyrics are simple (sometimes embarrassingly so, if read without the music behind them, and "Dreams are all/ I have to give/ When we die/ Our dreams still live" will never be anyone's standard of excellence) but the arrangements arid voices make them terrific. Her soft, subtle soprano is highlighted by, never lost behind, the strings and'brass that often surround it, and the occasional vocal help comes from the likes of Odetta and Phoebe Snow.

Prodigal Sun �Guest Opinion by the Steering Committee Graduate Student Employees Union President Robert Ketter’s response to a Graduate Student Association (GSA) resolution requesting him to “recognize that graduate teaching assistants at UB are overworked, underpaid, and in fact, exploited" and “to bring these facts to the appropriate governmental bodies with the attention they deserve” has come as a callous insult to all Teaching Assistants (TAs) and Graduate Assistants (GAs) working at this University. Dr. Ketter’s response in a letter to Terry DiFilippo summarizes an earlier meeting with Mr. DiFilippo. Dr. Ketter states “I did not at all accept the notion that graduate teaching assistants were ‘overworked, underpaid and exploited,’ but rather stated that in many instances there is ample evidence and documentation that some do not work at all.” The Steering Committee of the Graduate Student Employees Union sees Dr, Ketter’s response as irresponsible and inexcusable in view of the difficult situation lacing TAs and GAs in a time of decreasing wages, increasing workload and lack of any protection relating to job security or accident insurance. The resolution, passed by theCiSA senate with no dissenting votes, also requests Dr. Ketter “to light for the payment of a living wage (S5000) to funded graduate students,” in view of the fact that "the average amount of stipend lor graduate students at SUNYAB (S2X89) is not sufficient for a persyn to live on,” Dr. Ketter replies “the level of support yoh |GSA) seek is totally unrealistic.” In response to the question of whether he would make a public statement in support of the $5000 per year assistantship level and in opposition to the four-year rule, Dr. Ketter states emphatically. In his letter. Dr. Ketter states. have continuously undertaken serious efforts to obtain increases in graduate student support... In fact, 1 felt that if (our emphasis added) increases were to be gained, it was going to be incrementally .. . certainly not all at once.” In point of fact, meaningful increases in assistantship salaries have not occurred in the past nine years. The fact , is that average TA and GA wages have decreased in buying power by more than 50 percent since the level was set in 1967. The fact is that we are tired of “serious efforts” which have produced nothing. "we In the past the administration has at least verbalized a knowledge of the fact the TA and GA salaries are inadequate. It is not as though they have been unaware of our situation. In a 1974 memorandum, February Graduate School Dean McAllister Hull refers to “the difficult salary situation for assistants." In a December 1975 memorandum, Assistant Executive Vice President Charles Fogel states, “When we were preparing our 1975/76 budget request, we recognized that an improvement in TA-GA stipends was essential. They had not been materially increased for a considerable period. Our request to SUMY therefore, was for a 22 increase ..That percent increase never materialized. Mr. Fogel went on to point out that the 1976/77 fiscal budget request includes about an 8 percent increase in average assistantship levels. Can TA’s and GA’s expect even this inadequate increase? Can we expect the President University who seems to think that TA’s and GA’s don’t even work, to make “serious efforts’to fight to improve our situation? The Ketter Administration’s record speaks for itself. The Graduate Student Employees i Union was formed with the understanding that SUNYAB administrative policy does not necessarily reflect the best interests of graduate student employees or graduate and undergraduate education or students in general. We have seen the Ketter Administration eliminate undergraduate programs,-eliminate 165 TA and GA lines, eliminate numerous faculty and staff positions, increase undergraduate class sizes, with student interfere which benefit organizations students (such interfere with student governments’ rights to appropriate student monives, attack nontraditional forms of education such as the Collegesand attack all implementing students by cutbacks which seriously affect the availability and quality of education here. GSEU is one group within the University community which has organized to resist such attacks, to defend the rights of its constituency and to fight for quality public education. Yet administrators continue \o try to discredit and stop the efforts of TAs and GAs. A brief history exposes exposes administrative attempts to continue exploitation of graduate student employees. In February 1974 McAllister Hull, University Dean of the - , Graduate School, released the University’s “Guidelines for Graduate Assistantships.” Dr. Hull’s memo states, “The of the view university assistantship, from whatever source, is that it is principally to assist the student financially while he pursue? his/her degree objectives.” The guidelines state “The normal workload for TAs and GAs, including all duties should average in the range of 15 to 20 hours per week.” Nowhere in these guidelines or the memo was there any indication of the relationship of the TA/GA duties to the academic pursuits of the graduate student except that the TA/GA must be a graduate student “in good standing” and “maintaining registration with the concurrent appointment.” But on March 4, 1975, the administration decided it was time to issue a new set of “Guidelines for Graduate Assistants/’ guidelines which would be convenient to the administration’s efforts to stop a newly formed campus organization, GSEU. It was during the summer of 1974 that GSEU became an organization recognized by the Graduate Student Association (GSA). During that summer two public conferences were held by GSEU and in September 1974 the first GSEU Newsletter appeared on campus. In subsequent newsletters GSEU outlined the process of becoming a legally' recognized union to bargain for improving the status of TAs and GAs. GSEU began an authorization drive to obtain signatures on a petition legally required by the Public Employees Relations Board (PERB). By March 1st, 1975, GSEU had collected the signatures of almost 500 TAs and GAs and was preparing to submit the petition to PERB. By March 1, 1975, GSEU had established itself as a serious ongoing organization. On March 4, 1975 the administration issued its new guidelines. The self serving nature of the new guidelines is obvious. In the March 4, 1975 memorandum from Albert Somit to implement “Guidelines for Graduate Assistants to replace (and extend) those (by McAllister Hull] in February 1974,” the administration began playing a different tune. “These activities (TA and GA appointments) are emphasized as a learning process rather than as productive The memo employment . “It cannot be continues, emphasized too strongly that the assistantships are basically quality education, work which is critical to the continued functioning of the University. Now v* hear grumblings that teaching wih be required of all graduate students, regardless of being funded or not. At least one department has recently instituted this policy and several others are considering it. GSEU sees this as fellowships designed to provide apprenticeship learning opportunities as well as financial supporj* for Hie inost meritorious graduate stWdentk available.’.’ The fact that significant work 15-20 hours per week” is required is not denied. Ip fact thfe memo states that TA work is monitored as part of the “teaching analysis procedures used by the University” and that “Failure to monitor these assignments properly results in unnecessary University embarrassment and may deny a student the stipend expected.” The fact that work is required, the fact that the work is part of the teaching load of the University, and the fact that if work is not performed the salary will not be paid all clearly differentiate TAs and GAs from fellowships which are, in fact, gifts. Dr. Ketter uses these same self-serving guidelines in his response to GSA: “Finally in this entire matter, I think it is necessary to bear in mind the fundamental purpose of graduate support is not to provide employment, but rather to assist in the attainment of graduate' education. Assistant ships are, in fact, for educational purposes and to distort this into the notion of ‘hired employment’ I think is in gross error.” The fact that TA and GA assistantships aid the individual graduate student in pursuing his/her degree is not denied: our assistantship money enables us to live and study in the University community. But the fact that TAs and GAs are simultaneously employees cannot be denied. We provide services in exchange for our money. Contrary to Dr. Ketter’s beliefs, we do work: work which is vital to tfie teaching and research responsibilities of this University; work which must be done satisfactorily to continue being paid, work which other employees, faculty or staff, would have to do if we didn’t, work which is essential in providing the ultimate in graduate student exploitation. Leaks from confidential memos state that junior faculty are the first to go In slated faculty cuts. With a free labor pool of 5000 graduate students to take up the slack, the University administration will no doubt try to find more excuses to further exploit graduate student employees. GSEU will take any necessary steps to ensure that the rights of graduate student employees at this University are defended. Finally we are annoyed by Dr. Ketter’s comments that the formation of a graduate student employees union will have “negative impact both for the individual graduate student as well as for the educational purposes and missions of this institution.” We know how unionization has benefited not only graduate students but also the University community as a whole at the Universities of Michigan, Wisconsin and Toronto. We know that the university community at each school actively supported the efforts of graduate student employees. We know that the administration of each school tried to discredit the unionizing efforts of graduate students, tried to intimidate union activists by means of arrests and suspensions and tried to confuse issues by various scare tactics of “having to pay taxes” or “causing tl»e financial collapse of the university.” We know all these things and we also know that the graduate student employees were successful in defending their rights as students, as employees and as members of the community.

Three of the Bulls, George Cooper, Eric Spence and Vernell Washington, were all ineligible due to an incomplete grade from last semester. So, Bulls coach Leo Richardson inserted Larry Jones into Cooper’s spot at guard, and Ron McGraw took the place of forward Otis Horne, who had not practiced since the last game since he too was ineligible (although Horne subsequently cleared up his incomplete and did play against LeMoyne). This new quintuplet had been practicing all week as a unit, but Richardson was not sure how effective they would be. Consistency the key The Bulls’ two new starters responded with fifteen points each, and the new starting five, playing for the most part without any help from the bench, tamed in what Richardson called the Bulls’ most consistent performance of the yeas', and Buffalo picked up their, seventh victory against eleven Tosses.

The Dolphins had switched to a full court press, which enabled Zalewski’s two freethrows, their press almost stole the ball again, but instead, Buffalo's Gary Domzalski was fouled. He hit the freethrow, first but more importantly, after that the Bulls made most of their one-and-one freethrow situations, instead of missing them as they have done occasionally in the past. Chris Conlon’s two freethrows with just fourteen seconds on the clock iced the victory for the Bulls. Buffalo only missed five of 27 freethrows the whole game, way above average for them. remaining, “I thought we ran our offense better than we have all year,” Richardson said. “Our defense wasn’t bad. Overall, we played reaLWell,” Since Richardson could not say how long it would be before the three ineligible Bulls would return, he probably would continue to use this new combination which appeared to be so successful. Tonight, the Bulls will go Long Island University, All-American Ernie featuring Douse. According to Richardson, it will be one of the toughest games of the year, especially since the Blackbirds will be trying to avenge a three point loss to against Buffalo last year, while the Bulls will be trying to prove it was no fluke. “They [LIU] are just about like we are.

AjJi; 'J FWda^^PebrttarV 1 1976 by David J. Rubin Well, it looks like the war is starting up again. The,forces of Clark Hall, Hayes Hall and Norton Hall are mobilizing their arsenal of facts, figures and propaganda as the 1976 athletic tug of war gets underway. For the past few years, the mqjor battles have raged between student forces fighting for and against the maintenance of funds for athletics. Pro-sports people claimed that intercollegiate sports was necessary for a complete education and a proper university, while anti-athletics folk argued that sports, especially intercollegiate sports, create too large a bill for students to foot when organizations like CAC and NYPIRG are equally hungry for funds So far, intercollegiate sports has survived although it had a leg amputated when football was eliminated, and a finger chopped off with the dissolution of crew. But this year, it appears that the sports supporters will be facing the most uphill of climbs. Last year, the now defunct SFA, Students for,, the Future of Athletics, stacked the Student Association senate and worked out an austerity budget for another year. They probably could do the same again this year if they had to. But the real threat to intercollegiate athletics now stems from the University itself. It is the administration which is threatening to cut a chunk out of the $152,000 promise it made to athletic coaches over the summer. Forget about why or how this promise may be broken. Just realize that unless someone somewhere find's a way to make sure that this money is kept available for coaches' salaries, there may be no like to intercollegiate sports next September. The administration see SA pick up this unwanted expense, but SA funds are spread so thin already that there is no way they could pick up any sizeable new tab. Once again, athletics is fighting for its life. Last year, it fought the students for every penny of SA money it could get, and somehow managed to get enough. But this year, it will have to take on a much more difficult foe. Moral persuasion does not work on administrators who are thinking “cutback.” There are no voting bodies like SA which athletics backers can stack the way they did for the SA budget debates last year. It’s too early to tell who will lose the war this year. If cutbacks are sizeable, then athletics will lose. If SA is convinced to somehow give even more money to athletics than it already does, then it will strain itself tremendously. Even the administration, in all fairness, will lose every time it cuts back on funding for anything. One thing is certain, however, the battle will be long and bloody. Clark Hall will shower the administration with an unrelenting verbal attack. Hayes will strike back quietly but powerfully with threats of greater and greater cutbacks. SA will stand firm, willing to maintain its current funding leveC but determined not to get hooked for more money. All in all, it will not be a pretty sight. We’ll hear the same old charges, the same old arguments. The same old proposals will be made, and the same old denials will be issued. However, this year has a different twist. Somehow, you’ve got to believe that this time around, will be reached. settlement is somehow reached, the next few weeks and months will probably be another monetary nightmare for the coaches players, and even fans who believe as 1 do that intercollegiate sports are an integral part of any university. no settlement Even if a Of THEATRE ifiE CENTURy A SEASON VT f± �y • '' » v ','T' ■ . ciaisffiiD USED calculator Te*.

Speakers arc judged on the clarity of their arguments, the quality of their evidence, and their speaking ability. Persuasive speaking consists of an individual delivering an original ten-minute speech, trying to persuade the listener to a certain point of view. Extemporaneous speaking, which Cohn believes to be the most difficult individual speaking event, consists of a spontaneous five-to-seven minute speech on a topic which the speaker receives a half hour before he must deliver it. The most important characteristic a speaker must have, according to Cohn, is poise. “You have to stay calm, and think on your feet," she explained. “Even after you've done it lots of times, it's still scary.” Both Cohn and Jones are experienced speakers, and the recipients of numerous honors both in high school and college. Cohn feels the Bicentennial Youth Debates are an excellent way for college students to 'cut through all the publicity" and find something “real” and interesting to them in the bicentennial Sectional competition of the nationwide Bicentennial Youth Debates progrtmi! Mike Junes, who took first place in the extemporaneous speaking category, and Dene C hn. who look second, will represent Western New York’s universities in competition in Rochester later this month.

Two other members of the Debate Society also qualified for the Buffalo State competition, but only Jones and Cohn finished high enough to continue on to (he Sectionals.

The investigation is not complete. Anything we found is confidential.” Iris and Ninth Floor Resident Advisor Matt Astroff, tried to reconstruct the incident. “He walked into my room about ten minutes before it happened,” said Astroff, “and he didn’t appear to be under the influence of any drugs. But very few kids knew him because he only moved in about a week and a half ago “The kid was lying on his bed, fully clothed and even wearing his boots,” said Iris. “We began the resuscitation process and then Security and the doctors took over.

The student died in his ninth floor room, after mouth to mouth resuscitation and cardiac massage by Head Resident Ron Iris and an ambulance team failed to revive him. The cause of death is as yet unknown. An autopsy was performed by the County Medical Examiner, however, and a final report should be completed by the end of the week. The report will come in two parts, a microscopic anatomy analysis and a toxicology report. The information to be released by the toxicologist will determine if any drugs were present in the student’s body at the time of his death. Money and Drugs “We couldn’t officially say anything,” commented Patrick Glennon, Director of Campus Security. “None of us know the cause of death; the County Medical Examiner has told us nothing.

Dr. Luther Musselman, Acting Director of University Health Services, who was summoned to Goodyear and present at the post-mortem inquiry, noted that, “This is a very unusual situation. The student was physically sound at one moment and ten minutes later, he was dead.” The contents of the victim’s stomach were examined, but there was “nothing grossly identifiable,” said Musselman. Although he refused to speculate about the cause of death, Musselman did not rule out the possibility of drugs. “We are trying to get the toxicologist to speed things in the possibility that there is some product being used up on campus that is dangerous. We will try to mak£ the information available to the student public, if legally possible,” he said. Students are advised that Sunshine House will analyse for free any substance thought to be chemically dangerous, and will return the substance to its rightful owner, once proven safe. Some students have expressed fears that Campus Security will conduct a thorough search of the dorms for drugs as a result of the death incident. However, Glennon denied this charge, stating, “This does not warrant mass raids on the dorms. We cannot conduct searches without probable cause; there is no legal basis for triggering such a thing.” , »v«v»*»vj& diamond inside a covering." staled L.K. Misra. a teacher of Yoga and Meditation from the Himalayan Institute of Chicago on Saturday evening. "The self is hidden underneath a cover, and we are afraid to open it and look at it Misra believes that society poses an obstacle to pure self-analysis by classifying and labeling people. “Many people confuse superficial labels with the ‘self.” Misra complained. “In this society, unless a man wears the nicest suits, he is not respected.” Misra pointed out that many people define themselves as society has classified them. “For example, if I ask you. ‘sho wre you and what are you’ most people respond by stating their name, occupation, and education. All these are given to " you.” Misra cited his own education as an illustration the labeling syndrome. “My colleagues encouraged me to study for a doctorate degree, even though I felt that an extra degree was unnecessary. They told me that I would be more respected and that my credibility would be high. I am today the same man, with the same knowledge, but I get more respect because of an extra title.” The first step in analyzing the self, according to Misra. is the realization that our selves, are not our bodies, names or possessions. “Once these coverings are shed, we can see what we really are,” he said. of I SHA WNI | CENTER Career Day 1976 FESTIVAL SEATING!!

He would be able to understand their actions. Misra feels that man is essentially good. “It is important that you keep this in mind, or else it is easy to become discouraged,” Misra asserted. “The key to self analysis is in separating what you have from what you are.

Anti-abortion forces win small victories by Cynthia Crossen Special to The Spectrum (CPS) Working quietly under the surface, anti-abortion forces across the country are still chipping away at the 1973 Supreme Court decision which legalized abortion. And although the abortion opponents have not won the major battle for a constitutional amendment barring abortions, they have carried home several small victories.

The two Social Sciences Executive Committee members made their statements in an interview with The Spectrum Friday. “The erosion of student rights here is phenomenal,” they said, citing the current Administration investigations of activity fee funds as an example. The two connected restraints on the Student Association (SA) funding to what they termed a “return to staunch law *n’ order on this campus” that has turned back many of the gains made by the student movement of the sixties and early seventies. Kling and Weeks were also critical of the current actions of the Colleges Chartering Committee, especially their monitoring of classes in Social Sciences and in Tolstoy College (College F). “We have no objection to being judged by our peers,” said Weeks, “but we object to having history teachers judged, for instance, by a psychiatrist who might have little or no background in history. We don’t think any unit in the University should have to submit to such arbitrary procedures.” Biased committee Kling added that he senses an ideological bias against the College on the part of the Administration and some members of the Chartering Committee. “Our College is No coordination Kling and Weeks pointed out that while groups such as the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) and the Graduate Student Association (GSA) have taken strong devoted to the teaching ofradical social theory, something that is deemed important by one-third of the people on earth if not by some at this University. And we do object to having courses on Marxism evaluated by strong anti-Marxists.” The Colleges Chattering Committee is currently carrying out “reviews” of Social Sciences Colleges and Tolstoy College which were mandated by President Ketter when he approved charters for the two in January 1975. Members of the Committee were chosen by the Faculty Senate, the Colleges Council, SA and GSA. Veteran’s course Kling and Weeks see the Colleges as special objects of attack in these times of retrenchment, partly due to their history of being founded for and by undergraduates. “It was a movement that got the Colleges,” said Kling. “and it’ll take a movement to save them.” Weeks that the members of Social Sciences have been unexpectedly successful this semester in setting up a Veteran’s course and in setting up counseling for Vietnam veterans. Kling added, “We’re about the only unit of the University offering a well-rounded program to help veterans deal with academic, emotional and economic problems.” The two Social Science College faculty also commended SUMY Chancellor Ernest Boyer for his strong anti-cutback stance, and said that Ketter should take a similarly strong stand when faced with suggested cutbacks. Food Service is hit by wide spread lap-offs and Vending Services. One out of three students who were on board last semester chose A freeze on transfer student to go off this semester, he acceptances, and a drop in Food explained.

All employees have had hours cut. Seniority, the basis for deciding who stays and who goes, inherently favors full time and consequently workers, student employees suffered most from the staff cuts. “Compares favorably” Food Service came under attack last semester over student firings and alleged unsanitary conditions. Commenting on these “improprieties,” Bozek contended that there was only one isolated case where a student worker was fired unfairly, and this situation with the was soon student’s reinstatement. Many students have also asserted that Food Service charges exhorbitant rates for low quality, poorly prepared meals. Bozek denied these charges, insisting that his organization provides only high quality food at prices that compare favorably with other State University board plans, some of which are mandatory. He indicated that schools which operate mandatory plans have substantially more money to work with and therefore can charge less for the same amount of food. There is a larger missed meal factor at these schools, ranging up to 20 percent at Albany. Food Service here, in comparison, works with a missed meal factor of 2.5 percent. Citing evidence of how a board here as compared contract favorably with other SUNY indicated that schools, he Albany’s 20 meal a week plan costs $365/semester, while at — $350.

Wednesday, 4 February 1976 TTie Spectrum Page five . . �mim Guest Opinion \ by Michele Smith Student Association President Two years ago, as National Affairs coordinator of the Student Association (SA), I became aware of the “commuter” problem at this University*. 1 met with, spoke to, and surveyed many commuters. Their common “nothing to do on campus that we complaint “The like.” movies are terrible.” “What the hell do I get for my $67.00?” Of course, these are just generalizations. But they reflect a common attitude among most of the students 1 surveyed. As a result of this growing awareness, I started the Commuter Council. Later, our SA Constitution was amended to include a Coordinator for Commuter Affairs. All of this was done to provide Buffalo residents with a forum for advocating their priorities. One area that the Council reacted to strongly was UUAB activities. Many members felt that UUAB’s offerings were not reflective of commuter interests. Student Association urged commuters on the Council to join the UUAB committees and try to make changes. No one expected to “take over” the odmmittees, although all expected the commuter input to result in offerings that would attract more students." Bob Wallace, Commuter Affairs Coordinator, also wanted to begin an afternoon film series for commuters. Things did not work out as planned. The Film Committee met irregularly throughout the summer and meeting times were not publicized. In fact, notification for meetings was only given at the previous meeting. If you missed one meeting, you were out of luck. Apparently, most of the people on the committee were friends, so they kept in touch with one another. However, people like Bob Wallace and Arthur Lalonde were not kept informed, and they continually felt that they were not welcome. - The Duds To the Editor. I had a horrible dream Friday night. It seemed like it took place in my old high school gym, except that this gym was a little more run down. There I in the bleachers doing my sitting was, “Hunchback-of-Notre-Oame” imitation, when all of a sudden my ears were assaulted with all kinds of inexcusable noise. 1 looked up at the stage, where a good act had once been, and lo and behold, there was a group of men actually making the noise and getting paid for it! On stage, there was not one, but two robots;, each behind a set of drums, playing with mechanical motions. Someone must have forgotten to push their selection switch; for they both played the same beat in every “tong.” In front of the robots there were, not one, not two, not three, but FOUR guitarists (Lynyrd, eat your heart out), all of whom combined could not have equaled the talent of Dino, Desi and Billy. The song contents were so basic and simplistic, that even Bachmaniv-Tumer Overdrive would have laughed. The only way I knew the songs had ended was when they stopped playing. But when they started playing, again, it seemed like the band was still stuck on the Sam* song. But something even stranger occurred. There was one of the men, standing behind a mike, singing, with nothing coming out of his mouth! By the beginning of the third song, the P.A. man finally awoke and plugged the mike in. Too bad! They should have qtiit while they were ahead. Come to think of it< his singing wasn’t the worst I ever heard I once had a pet guinea pig who liked to moan at night Then if happened! Like all good rock singers arc supposed to do,.h|e yelled. In the words of Chris Ruth, “It sounded like they had his balls in a vise." All in all, last Friday night was degrading and a total insult to my musical intelligence. Chris Rush, alone, was wortlf. the; S1.50. To top things off, the first two hundfftd “lucky” people received a free copy of the Dudes’ new hot AM selling single. I can honestly say I brought the record home and gave it a No folks, they don’t make good frisbees. chance It must be the hole in the middle. This was definitely a third class act that should never have gotten farther than the back up band for the Bay City Rollers. To people not accustomed to rock, this was by no means rock, let alone music at , The decision-making process on the Film Committee was also unfair. Each member of the committee drafted a list of movies he or she wanted to air and a master list was compiled. From that master list the committee formed the final list of weekend films. The new representatives on the committee were almost always voted down. In fact, the final list was never approved by the committee'as a whole; it was “approved” solely by Dennis Fox (and perhaps one or two others). So we were not even aware that a final decision was made on films , until much later. ■ ,,. ... ' ■ Two things must be cleared up about the SA all. position: first we are not against foreign or “art” films. There is a definite need for UUAB to Four Irate A Stinging Ears, Denis Caron provide alternatives to commercial theater. What we are arguing, however, is that the balance be changed. Presently, the weekend film ratio is about 60:40 “art” to “popular” (weekends only). That is based on a purely subjective, personal definition of what is a “popular” film. If you disagree with my definition, do your own Phil Ellman The Spectrum Vol. 26, No. Wednesday, 4 February 1976 52 Editor-m-Chief Amy 0 unkin - — — — — .Bill Maraschiello .. .

Hidden retrenchment To the Editor Managing Editor Richard Korman Managing Editor Howard Greenblatt Advertising Manager Gerry Me Keen Busman Manager Howard Koenig analysis. Whatever the exact outcome, it is clear that lesser known films predominate over “known” films. Our aim? To strike a new balance favoring popular films slightly more. The “infamous eight” films were chosen in the following manner; Arthur and I went through the weekend films noting that every weekend there were two UUAB films. “Why not let there be one popular film and one art film?” If there are two popular films, let that stand because of weekends taken up by the film festivals. Of course it was only a rough guide. But it had only one aim to provide alternatives every weekend possible. On eight weekends that alternative did not exist. So we agreed that one film per each of these weekends should be changed. The second misconception is that Student Association favored institution of more popular films simply because we had profit-making motives. Look at it another way: you pay $67 don’t you want to get the most for your money? UUAB films are subsidized with thousands of dollars of your fees. The more people that attend the movies, the more people that will be getting something for their $67. From the consumer’s standpoint, we should want to fill those theaters as much as possible. It is therefore from the of the consumer, not the perspective we attacked the problem. We that entrepeneur, wanted students to get the most for their money, not rip them off. Student Association made many mistakes in the aggressive and belligerent way it made its demands but I believe that occurred because of the unreceptive and hostile attitude displayed by Mr. Fox and others in UUAB. Bob Wallace received little, if any, cooperation from Mr. Fox in establishing the afternoon movie series. The Rim Committee was in no way open to new ideas. It is clear that UUAB films are run by a “clique.” I can say this because we deliberately sent in people to break that “clique” and they were unsuccessful. I do understand Mr. Fox’s position: he was trying to do his job and he felt threatened by our demands for change. Nonetheless, I still believe that Mr. Fox was and is wrong in his actions. I believe that he was insensitive to changing student opinion about films, and for these reasons the Board has reopened his position. This holy war between “art” and “government” must end. It is uncalled for and has been blown out of proportion. I share some of the angry feelings of others in Student Association who feel that our position was not represented in The Spectrum. But I do not feel that hostility is appropriate or necessary. We must try to solve problems not further them. The eight films have been reinstated as a concession. A committee has been formed to define some guidelines, structures, and policies for UUAB. A survey of student interests is being planned. I would like to hear your ideas, especially if you agree with our concept of a new “balance” in UUAB. On behalf of several non-tenured faculty in the Faculty of Educational Studies I would like to thank you for publishing Paul Krehbiel’s piece on the recent tactics used by Dr. Walter Petty to frighten junior academic employees. As the result of the way in which he irresponsibly spreads rumors, one department chairman, in Social Foundations, departmental advised all strongly assistant professors, including one who was unanimously supported for promotion, to find employment elsewhere. While we do not contend that Dr. Petty’s actions are purposefully malicious, they have been careless and have frightened a number of very productive individuals. The intellectual climate has suffered greatly, Mr. Krehbiel left, one important point out of his article. In his “confidential memo” .On** Petty suggested that he would use non-renewal as a means of retrenchment. Under this procedure any faculty .. . member, regardless of the time he has been at this University or his importance to his department, would be fired simply because his contract is up for routine renewal. It is my understanding that this is not the policy of Dr. Ketter. Retrenchment has to do with positions, not people. I would also like to add that as the result of Dr. Petty’s action and his continual references to the inevitability of retrenchment within the Faculty of Educational Studies, many really productive young faculty are actively seeking employment elsewhere. Since many of us are committed to our students and to the University, this is most tragic. It has had a most depressing and disrupting effect on our personal and professional lives. . I regret that, 1 have not given you permission to use my name. In the current climate that would be unwise. We do hope that all faculty and students will do what they can .|o. resist retrenchment and the insidious process of “hidden retrenchment.'’ .. Name withheld upon request �Broken dreams . '.vw To the Editor: It is with great pain inside that I write this letter. A friend of mine is dying inside because he has lost a dream. After four years of putting up with hard-ass instructors and competitive examinations, he has to throw in the towel. He can’t get into medical school. My friend is having a nervous breakdown because the A.M.A. has been successful in keeping medical school classes small, because only the rich can aford to go to medical schools in mahy areas, and because the federal government would rather send money to North Vietnam than to American medical schools. This country complains it hasn’t got enough doctors but only one out of three highly qualified applicants in this country gets accepted. Pre-medical education is not a normal type of education. It’s a combination of stress testing, army basic training, and S.S. nerve torture similar to that used in W.W. II.

These are not people with 4.0’s. These are people with 3.5 or better. These people made a commitment four years ago only to be turned away after those four years. Many of these people wind up cynical and disillusioned. I am pre-med and have been “lucky’’.enough to have been accepted. I am writing this letter to those of you that are in pre-med now or are contemplating it. If you are in it because you want to spend your life in the care of human life, then stay in it and be prepared tq put up with indifferent and sometimes spiteful professors who’ll tell you how much they dislike pre-meds, and all the others who will tell you how much money you’ll make. If, on the other hand, you’re in it for the money, the glory, the little black bag, or the nice sounding title, do yourself and the rest of us a favor, get your ass out. After four years of pre-med I have become cynical, disillusioned, and cold to many feelings. I can no longer remain silent. A friend of mine is dying and with him so does a part of me.

In a year of increased terrorism in all corners of the world, it if-comforting to know that community has not been forgotten. I the question whether we must Be witness and hostage to one more demand, or one more threat. To Mr. Lalonde, I ask: With all that has been happening to students here, the knuckling under of the administration to outside economic interests, crippling the Record Co-op and the student pharmacy, and the removal of student control in the spending of mandatory fee monies by Ketter, you manage to waste your time and therefore, the students’ time, by haggling over what you consider to be eight non-popular films. What methods have you employed in your determination of what is “popular?” Trying to determine what is popular is like trying to give a definitive meaning to the word “nice.” Would you have us believe that because the title of a film is not on everyone’s lips, it is not worthwhile and therefore not to be shown? With all the various movies shown throughout the week on this campus, I applaud the efforts of the Film Committee in bringing new and innovative films to this community. As has already been stated, some “non-popular” films have grossed more than your “popular films.” It then becomes a question of which is the popular film. I have waited on long Hner to see what you would label a non-popular fihw•.«» I suggest that there are far mote important issues at this university which deserve the attention of the “student representatives.” The bus sendee - between the campuses stinks, students have lost control over their own mandatory fees, and organizations which serve the students seem to be falling by the wayside, due to the wishes of Hayes Hall. Mr. Lalonde, it is hard to believe that you are serving the interests of the students in this foolish escapade? GET ON THE STICK! 1 want to ask Dave Benders what it feels like to be a kidnapper or even a terrorist, because that is what he is. I want to know how in the hell he Is justified in using my mandatory student fees as hostage to gain the reinstatement of Mr. Fox. I agree with him that Mr. Fox should be reinstated, but his methods are crude and injurious to the student population. I am tired of the students being “screwed” as the “meglomaniacs” play “po>ver politics” in the upper reaches of Norton Hall. Am I to understand that if Sub Board had not acquiesced to his demands that the students of this university would have suffered? If that be so, then you have sunk to the level of organizations like die FLO: congratulations Dave Benders, terrorist. I cannot understand why these two bodies (supposedly serving the students), cannot come to some agreement as to their respective duties and obligations. There is no reason why this situation has to turn into a Hatfield-McCoy feud. After witnessing this deplorable'display I begin to realize what Causes student apathy.

During the last five years, the State University at Buffalo, which has prided itself on its so-called progress!vism in education, has in reality been slowly sinking into the mire of repressive education for the hell of it. The latest move made by the Faculty Senate Educational.Planning and Policy Committee recommending a mandatory writing course for incoming freshmen is the most drastic step yet. The University, under the direction of the Ketter travesty, has time and time again failed to respond to the needs and desires of the students for more inspirational education and freer, a - — environment. The issue, in reality, is whether or not a student in the State University has the right to choose to be educated the way he or she sees fit. This University has created the image of a free, progressive institution in the past by the removal of University requirements and the creation of The Colleges. Now, under the guise of bettering educational standards, slowly but surely the Administration is attempting to reduce the student to a mere commodity. The problem with mandatory composition courses is that, as always, the students are denied the choice of what is best for them. One wonders where the concept of progressive education has gone in this University. When a return to required courses is immediately supported by pseudo-liberal student institutions such as The Spectrum, it becomes apparent that academic freedom is quickly ceasing to exist. We wonder if perhaps, given the state of this University, it might not be more to the student’s benefit to mandate a course in the sanctity of individual rights, but only for people aspiring to be newspaper editors. It is almost unbelievable ■ that this project has been met with such rapid approval without even the technical formality of a search for a rational, progressive alternative to the {Jroblem. We would like to know how The Spectrum can really believe that this is the answer without even trying to arrive at some other course of action, let atone a compromise plan? Why does this course designed to “enrich all of us” have to be mandatory? -Why is there no alternative for the students who can successfully construct the English language?? While any alternative solution constitutes a blockade placed on student rights, there are many alternatives that will not only help alleviate the problem, but will also put a cost ceiling on this new program. Instead of hiring people trained in each of the departments to teach theSe required courses, why can’t the University dip irtto its own resources? There are students, seniors in the English Department, who we’re sure would be willing, for credit, to conduct writing workshops on a voluntary basis for all freshmen who cbods£ to take it? The Faculty Senate Committee doubts about the use of graduate assistants, wttti they justifiably feel are “the most exploitable" members of each department. The idea that escapes the committee is that there are seniors in almost every department who are working on teaching certification. Couldn’t this be used as “on the job training” for perspective teachers? This University is not the easiest place for an individual to survive. The administration, with a little help from its friends, is succeeding at making it harder than it was ever meant to be. Gary Waldman Elliot A brams Joel Auerhach Steve Milligram Class of pawns To the Editor. The manner in which Dr. Eric Beth was ousted from Physics is disgraceful. Dr. Beth is a man with feelings. I believe that he was honestly concerned about the students and their needs. The class, on the other hand, should not be used to accomplish the Physics Department’s ends. To fire a professor by soliciting enough complaints from our class, to justify his dismissal, is wrong. I am here to get an education, not to be used as a pawn. Since our class has hot received an official explanation as to what has transpired, I do not have both sides of the story. An explanation on the part of the Physics Department would be greatly 'v appreciated'.

Buffalo’s diver, Andrea Phalen, came in third in both the required and optional diving, although she was competing against three Cornell divers. Yakoto and Faith Malecki teamed for a one-two showing in the 100 freestyle, but Buffalo swam poorly in the dismal dunking by Cornell, 85-46. �Hockey team Bulldozes the Bombers of Ithaca College 4 Forrest Last week, the hockey Bulls split two home games. On Wednesday they dropped a 6-5 overtime heartbreaker to Union, and on Saturday they bombed Ithaca 9-4. But in both games. Bulls' goaltender John Moore was the major factor on the plus side for Buffalo. In the losing effort against Union, Moore turned aside 39 shots, and kept the Bulls alive after penalties and injuries had left Buffalo with nary three defensemen. His steady play against Ithaca resulted in 29 saves, many of which came in the early going before Buffalo broke the game open. Goalie John Moore is The Spectrum's Athlete of the Week CIA forum Graduate Student Union (GSA) and Speakers Bureau will present “A Forum On the CIA” tonight at 8 p.m. in the Fillmore Room. Featured speakers will be two CIA experts, John Marks and Kirkpatrick Sale.

The game marked one ot the few times this season that the Bulls didn’t fall apart in the final period of the game, but actually controlled play outscoring the Bombers 3—1 in the closing frame. For much of this season, the Bulls had been running into third period difficulty, where they would take some foolish penalties, and subsequently blow leads and snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Bulls last long This game differed in that although the Bulls spent a great deal of time in the sin bin, only once in the third period were the Bombers able to hit the Buffalo net, when Charley Joynt skated around a stickless Mike Caruana, and drilled one through goalie Johnny Moore’s legs. Moore, though, was the story in the game’s closing twenty minutes when he set up a fortress in front of the Bulls’ net, shutting down the Ithaca offense during their three power play opportunities. After making two stick stops on the right side, and shunting a partial breakaway, Moore made the save of the night when he smothered a 15 foot slapper in this midsection, toppling over in the crease, hanging on to the puck. Moore’s stellar goaltending exhibition was followed immediately by a Fred Sutton goal, and the Bulls took command of the period. Short handed too often “I don’t think it’s so much that we let down or collapse, it’s that we get stupid penalties,” said Moore of the team’s usual third period woes. “It hurts to play with four guys because it throws off the lines. But I don’t really think we collapse.” Coach Wright, who felt that his team played better hockey in the 6-5 overtime loss to Union a week ago, was also a little disgruntled about foolish penalties in the game’s latter stages. “I'm not happy with the number of penalties we look. They (Buffalo skaters) are aware of our third period problems. We Turning the trick The Bulls’ big offensive punch was provided by left wing lack Kaminska, who bagged a three-goal hat trick, bringing his season scoring total to 17. After scoring a goal in each of the first two periods, it appeared that Kaminska would be thwarted in his quest for the trick, as time and time again he was foiled by Bomber goaltender Jack Mouradian. But the hard skating forward got his third goal with just 46 seconds remaining, when he poked the rebound of a Toughie Gruarin shot past Mouradian’s left side. The assist by Gruarin was his second of the game, and coupled with his two goals, gave him a four point night. He had scored twice in the middle stanza, as the Bombers defense let him walk in alone on Mouradian, and Toughie hit the mark in both instances. The victory leaves the Bulls with an 8-4-1 Division II record, and further enhances their playoff opportunities “We don’t really feel that losing to Union hurt us,” said Moore. “It was a good game, and if we win the rest, we’ll make the playoffs.” Brockport tonight The Bulls get their next crack at Division II competition tonight, when they play host to Brockport State at the Sports Center. When the two squads met last November, the Bulls hung on to win 6-5, despite four tallies by Brockport in the final period. “It was a very tough game up there,” said Wright of the previous meeting. “If we play and skate the way we can we’ll get a positive result. We’re not going to win by just putting on the jerseys.” Goalie Moore also remembers the last game, but remains optimistic about tonight’s battle. “It was a little tough up there. They’re a chippy team, but they shouldn’t be too much of a problem,” said the Bulls netminder. “AIC and Oswego should be tougher, but we’re playing one game at a time.” The match with Brockport is the team’s last home game of the year. After a match at AIC, the Bulls travel to Oswego, Western Michigan, and Bowling Green for a pair of games with each opponent. r NIAGARA FALLS I | TWIN — BLVD.

In essence, the letter and agreement to follow would have reduced Sub Board’s role in the pharmacy to that of an underwriter while turning over control of the pharmacy and its inventory (drugs) to the University. The extent of the control, as one University administrator has explained, would be so great that if federal restrictions prohibiting advertisement of drug prices were lifted, and the administration decided not to advertise, the pharmacy would have to abide by that decision. School of Pharmacy administrators made it clear at terms Managing Editor The Sub Board directors voted unanimously Thursday night to formally complain to the SUNY Chancellor and Board of Trustees if President Robert Ketter does not release funds to pay the bills of the student pharmacy in Michael Hall. The directors also voted unanimously in the closed door session to reject Ketter’s terms for handing over the pharmacy license to the University. Ketter cut off funds for the pharmacy's operation without notice in late November, and only revealed through a spokesman January 14 his demand that the license be transferred to the University. The pharmacy is expected to close in a week if no accord is reached. It owes about $5000 to drug companies. Sub Board officials repeated their charge that Ketter was stalling as the pharmacy's financial condition worsened. No explanation They also repeated their complaint that so far, Ketter has sent Sub Board no formal statement explaining his actions and has turned down requests for meetings.

The Coop opened this semester under restrictions set by Ketter, which included a yearly limitation of $120,000 or $10,000 a month. This $60,000. Another limitation this semester is that absolutely no advertising is allowed, Insana said.

The six films are Zazie dans le Metro, Little Theatre of Jean Renoir, Les Violons Du Bal, Tales of Taira Clan, Every Man for Himself and God Against AII and Xala. Bitter wording The motion to reinstate the films, proposed by Student Association (SA) Executive Vice President Art Lalonde, was bitterly worded, according to one —continued on page 2 — �I 21 schools may close Buffalo busing plan formed by Education Commissioner State Education Commissioner Ewald B. Nyquist has formulated a plan which could mandate the closing of 20 elementary schools and one public high school in the city of Buffalo. The plan would be aimed at achieving racial balance in the Buffalo school system, and would probably involve the reassignment of between 15,000 and 20,000 students. It would divide the city into five school districts: Fillmore, Triangle, McKinley, Erie and Canal. Through a mass rezoning, certain schools would handle students from kindergarten through fourth grade, and others would contain grades five through eight. All kindergarten students would still continue to attend the schools closest to their homes. The reassignment of students to schools as far as six miles from their homes would probably require the establishment of a large-scale busing program. Under the Nyquist plan, each of the five school districts would contain an equal number of white and minority students. Schools to be closed are supposedly being chosen on- the basis of building age, capacity and proximity to other schools in the district. Forced integration has long been a touch subject in Buffalo, and was one of the issues which brought Country Comptroller Alfreda Slominski to prominence in the city. The debate over the best way to achieve integration also led, in part, to the creation of the elected School Board, as concerned parents sought to make the Board directly responsible to them. . In the meantime, Nyquist has been handing down busing plans to localities in New York State which seem unwilling or unable to formulate their own integration plans, such as Newburgh and Mount Vernon. Now, it appears that Nyquist is not satisfied with the progress of the Buffalo School Board’s efforts tp integrate city schools. Save their programs Education officials in Buffalo hope to negotiate with the state in preliminary integration plan is considerable monies coul order to preserve several programs said to include the closing of a saved by the closing of the which already exist.

Board member Abdul Wahaab had earlier moved to terminate Fox, but the motion was not seconded. Fox ‘unresponsive’ “I felt a significant number of board members felt that the action they took was too harsh, and that there was perhaps hot enough communications among the members in reaching the decision [to fire Fox and ban the films],” Jackalone told The Spectrum Friday.

In explaining the decision to direct the Personnel and Appointments Committee to search for a new Film Committee Chairman, which he admits amounts to a de facto vote of no-confidence in Fox, Jackalone said that the reinstated chairman has been “especially unresponsive to the attitudes and assements” of Sub Board. “We are therefore reopening the post,” he said. Sub Board Chairman James Smalley reaffirmed the standing —Forrast policy that the Personnel and Students line up Friday night to see the UUAB feature film Electra Appointments Committee’s final Glide in Blue, one of the eight movies cancelled and then later decision must be approved by the reinstated by the Sub Board Board of Directors last week. entire Board of Directors.

The GSEU, which is seeking to organize Teaching and Graduate Assistants (CTA’s and GA’s), is addressing itself to increasing cutbacks, decreasing wages due to inflation, and increasing workloads without just compensation. GSEU spokespersons point out that while TA’s and GA’s contribute significantly to the teaching and research responsibilities of the University, their working conditions continue to deteriorate as New York State makes cuts in education funding. Members see unionization as a means for better working conditions, leading to better learning conditions for those who benefit from teaching and research efforts. Monday's rally will set off a petition campaign to seek the support of TAs and GAs, and undergraduates, faculty and University staff. Later in February, another rally will be held to mark the end of the petition campaign and the presentation of demands to the administration. At a mass meeting to take place March I, GSEU plans to formally accept the administration’sresponse and consider action in view of that response. by Carrie Valient Spectrum Staff Writer New uniform guidelines for Faculty Student Associations (FSA) approved by the SUNY Board of on all state campuses Trustees, could increase student representation on many of the local boards. v The FSA is the corporation that controls Food Service, the Bookstores, Vending and other related services at SUNY schools. The guidelines, which affect both general membership and membership of the local FSA Boards of Directors, provide for a SUNY>wide electoral procedure. Previously, each individual FSA had its own system. The Trustees call for the FSA Boards to be composed of no less than 33 percent and no more than 50 percent students. This means that schools which presently have a majority of student directors on their Boards will be required to reduce the number, while those less than 33 percent minimum will gain more student control. More student input According to a Student Association of the State University (SASU) spokesperson, the wording of the new guidelines may aid in securing student input in FSA. General membership in the corporation will be amended to include all students, faculty and administrators on every SUNY campus. These people will, in turn, vote for the local Boards of Directors. Because students outnumber faculty and administrators, the SASU spokesperson predicted that the maximum 50 percent student representation will be reached on each local Board. The FSA Board of Directors at this University presently has the minimum one-third student representation required by the new guidelines. This level of student representation was achieved only less than a year ago. Prior to the change, student directors comprised only 20 percent of the Board membership. Flaws and corrections “Student interests would have been better protected had there been greater student representation in previous years,” stated Frank Jackalone, SASU Executive Committee member. Citing his frustrated efforts as Student Association. President to provide a “seconds policy” for students with board contracts, Jackalone stressed the difficulty in achieving positive results with insufficient student input. With the increase of student directors last year, however, Jackalone still feels it is “nearly impossible for students to thoroughly get involved in the [FSA] corporation to examine its flaws and to make corrections. The new guidelines will hopefully lead to more equitable student representation,” he said. Better operations On the statewide level, the overall gain in student directors when the guidelines go into effect met with favorable response. SASU President Bob Kirkpatrick commented, “Generally, our records indicate that FSA’s with high student memberships return their operating surpluses more directly to the student body in the form of beneficial services and operations than those controlled by faculty or administrators, who are less concerned with students’ needs.” WELCOME HOME S-l symposium Featured speakers offer differing perspectives on bill by Mike McGuire fight for the eight-hour work day at the turn of the Campus Editor century, which turned out to be the start of the Senate Bill I (S-l) is repressive legislation that must be stopped if civil liberties are to be preserved, according to several speakers who addressed more than 700 listeners in Norton Hall’s Fillmore Room last Thursday night. S-l is a revision of the federal criminal code, and has drawn fire from opponents for its provisions concerning the death penalty, wiretapping, official secrets, marijuana, sabotage, espionage, conspiracy and riot. Proponents defend the bill as a necessary revision of an overlong and redundant criminal code. The symposium featured four speakers who gave differing perspectives on the 'bill, which is now before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Nixon legacy Ester Herst. a Washington staffperson for the National Committee Against Repressive Legislation, gave a short history of the bill, labeling it a legacy of the Nixon administration. In 1971, she explained, a predominantly liberal commission, headed by former California Governor Pat Brown, handed down its proposals for unifying and updating the federal criminal code. The report was presented to a subcommittee of the Senate Judiciary Committee, which, ironically, was dominated by Senators McClellan (D-Arkansas) and Hruska (R-Nebraska), Herst said. They had been “conservative” members of the Brown Commission who were regularly outvoted, she added. According to' Ms. Herst, the two Senators rewrote the Brown Commission’s report in the subcommittee to suit their own predispositions. Hearings'on the bill were held during the height of the Senate Watergate proceedings, and media attention was thus diverted from the bill, she said, adding that McClelland and Hruska were frequently the only subcommittee members who attended the hearings. where the well educated drinkers meet.

Herst said only two days of hearings on S-l were held by the Senate subcommittee, partly because it was a combination of the two older bills, and that those two days were set up only because of complaints by liberal Democrats Edward Kennedy (D—Mass.) and Philip Hart (Mich.). George Conk, a staffperson of the National Lawyers Guild, linked S-l to a “history of repressive legislation,” which, Conk asserted, emerged in the United States at three other crucial times: during the American labor movement; after the First World War when organizers for the International Workers of the World were targets of repression along with aliens; and then throughout the Cold War period. Military approach Conk described a “new, cleaned-up tone” to repressive legislation. President Ford talks about “insuring domestic tranquility,” a phrase from the U.S. Constitution rather than “law and order,” which is associated more closely with the Nixon administration, he said. Conk fears that S-l is beinj treated by the federal government as a possible “model” for a unified system of state criminal codes. Conk feels that a sociological approach to law enforcment will be impossible if S-l becomes law, and that the bill’s proponents support a “surgical” approach to enforcement. Conk asserted that the $6.5 billion which will be the Law Enforcement Assistance spent by Administration (LEAA) over the next several years is an indication of the government’s paramilitary approach to crime, citing the LEAA’s “SWAT” (Special Weapons and Training) programs as an example. _ Hit minorities hard Laws like S-l are aimed largely against black youth, and therefore “we are ensuring a generation of unemployed blacks” if some provisions of S-l go into effect, he said. Dennis Serrette, of the Coalition of Black and Trade Unionists and Vice President of Local 1101 of the Communication Workers of America, echoed the same theme. S-l is disproportionately directed towards minorities and poor people, and is a piece of “fascist legislation,” he maintained. Jeff Seigel, of the Center for Constitutional Rights, said, “If you’re in a crowded theatre now and shout ‘Fire!’ you can be arrested. Under S-l, you could be arrested for shouting ‘Fire!’ in an empty theatre.” In committee Real opposition to the bill in its entirety has not yet started in the Senate, according to Herst, although some Senators have objected to specific sections, and Indiana Senator Birch Bayh removed his name from the list of sponsors. Herst characterized the Judiciary Committee as being made up of eight “conservatives” and seven “liberals,” although three of the 15 members may be “swing votes.” The symposium was sponsored by SA Speakers Bureau, the Graduate Student Association, the Buffalo Student Chapter of the National Lawyer’s Guild and the Distinguished Visitor’s Forum of the Student Bar Association.

Defend quality public education. — The myths conjured up about fraternities and sororities are not easily allayed. The weird initiation rites and somewhat grueling tests one must pass in order to join are still a great source of humor. Chi Omega, a national women’s fraternity, quickly disproves these myths. Founded at the University of Arkansas in 1895, it is rated one of the top organizations Of'its kind. Chi Omega has 159 chapters located throughout the country, but their national headquarters is in Cincinnati, Ohio. “It’s hard to be a woman in academic circles,” commented member Clare Reordan, “We’re a dynamic group of Avomen with an intense feeling of professionalism and a sense of pride and dedication,” she added. The purposes of Chi Omega are clearcut. They stress scholarship above anything else. “We’re college women ... primarily pursuing an education. We are intellectually interested in areas other than our majors. We want to know more about educated women and their place in our society,” another member explained Friendship is also accentuated. “We’re interested from a close association with our benefiting in difficult to experience on a campus which is peers, of this size,” a member noted. They claim that as an organization of friends, Chi Omega helps students expand their circle of friends. One of the major incentives for some members joining was the commuter problems they experienced, “Life for a commuter was little more than shuttling back and forth from campus to home,” another member said. Social activities are not the sole motivations for joining but, they are a more pleasant aspect of Chi Omega. The members of Chi Omega are very enthusiastic about their organization and claim that it has been an excellent reference for graduate schools and job applications. “Many of our alumna are still active, since membership is for life, and today when jobs are so scarce and every little push helps Chi Omega is invaluable. Many alumna are very influential in the business world and are more than happy to help another member.” Reordan explained.

Monday, 2 February 1976 A copy of a report by the House Select Committee on Intelligence last week said that 11 full-time officers of the Central Intelligence Agency were posing as journalists overseas in connection with their work. The report said further that until 1973, five agents posed as full-time correspondents with organizations that have “major general news impact.” Moreover, it stated that some 15 news organizations cooperated with the CIA in providing “cover” for CIA operatives. This report has caused widespread suspicion in the national press corps, and press officials are concerned that American readers, viewers and listeners will begin to believe that their news is colored by the CIA. William E. Colby, former director of the CIA, said that the CIA never intended to manipulate the news flowing to Americans. However, the organization did not feel there was anything wrong with hiring “stringers,” or part-time correspondents to sell their information to news organizations in this country, he added. journalist was a very good cover job for a spy. A journalist on assignment can generally ask questions and snap photographs without looking suspicious. If American journalists are thought to be spies a commonly held view of Soviet newsmen, then they are bound to face greater distrust and, in some countries, greater personal risk than normal. Speaking of these dangers, senior intelligence officers at the CIA have refused to make public the names of American news agencies which have “cooperated” with the CIA, or the names of newsmen who secretly worked for the CIA. They argued that to disclose the names of the individuals would endanger their lives, hold them up to ridicule and censure'if they are still in journalism or active intelligence. Members of the Senate Select information Committee agreed that might unfairly harm certain who Sam Jaffe, a former Bureau admits he was an informant for the Federal of Investigation, said last week th5t Walter Cronkite of CBS, John Chancellor of NBC and William Sheehan, president of ABC News, were on a list of 20 to 200 journalists who were paid by the CIA.

Dr. Agostinho Neto, leader of the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA) was named President of the newly-created People s Republic of Angola, since recognized by 33 nations, including 16 African states. Yet, much confusion surrounds in Angola based on events - American press reports about domestic warfare and wide-spread foreign involvement. Government leaders, such as President Ford and Secretary of State Kissinger, from the influence of small groups of powerful businessmen who produce primarily for private profit. This constitutes a major difference between the MPLA and the two splinter groups. FNLA ties Holden Roberto, head of the FNLA, receives support from Zaire President Mobutu Sese who is also his Seko, brother-in-law. The FNLA has been receiving aid from the CIA since 1962, and has gotten support from South Africa, Belgium, West Germany and France, Private corporations from these nations, as well as from the former colonial government of Portugal, the United States and others, have had important investments in Angolan resources for years. The People’s Republic of China has given aid to the FNLA and Zaire, raising questions about “socialist” China in its unholy alliance with the CIA, South Africa and multi-national corporations. UNITA was formed in 1966 under its current leader, Jonas Savimbi, and receives aid from South Africa, the United States, Britain and Zambia, and according to Time magazine, has been “backed by Portuguese business interests.” Savimbi, who favors Dr. Agostinho, President of the the participation of foreign capital People s Republic of Angola, and in Angola’s economy, formed a leader of the Popular Movement shaky alliance with the FNLA to for the Liberation of Angola declare themselves the real (MPLA). legitimate government.

The Senate also opposed sending such aid by a 54—22 vote in December. Yet, President Ford and Secretary of State Kissinger are already pressing There’s an old saying; Don’t wash your dirty laundry in public. It’s supposed to mean that if you’re in a group, you shouldn’t let outsiders know what goes on in the backrooms. But the saying itself somehow implies that you are embarrassed by dirty laundry, or by the .dirt itself, and certainly if you are inwardly embarrased by your dirty laundry, you won’t feel very confident in letting others see it. Some people think it is a sign of strength to effectively hide one’s dirt lately I see it as far more a sign of weakness. So I guess I’m here to expose some of College F’s dirty laundry. We usually keep it hanging all around our house on Winspear Avenue, but since we are once again being reviewed put on trial by the Ketter administration, I thought it would be better to let as many people as possible review us, and not just four or five strangers to us all. Besides which, I’m afraid that no matter what they find, the timefor places like our College is running out. Many of our critics and we have many say we don’t belong at this University (which may be all the more reason to keep us). I think we don’t belong herel Look at they’re right what we do and don’t do: We don’t give exams. We don’t sit in wooden or plastic chairs. In fact, our house has no classrooms, just moms with old couches and stuffy chairs. Our staff of teachers don’t look much different from the students, and often it is hard to tell during a class just who is getting paid to be there. Some of our teachers don’t get paid to be there they’re there cause they want to be. Most of our students aren’t there cause they have to be they want to be there, too. Many of the people in classes aren’t “students” or “teachers” they just Want to be there. We don’t flunk people. We read and study what we — Congress to reverse its decision. While the Ford Administration fumes over the ban and issues almost daily innuendos against the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola and the People's Republic of Angola the CIA continues to secretly funnel American tax-doliars into the civil war. To date, it is estimated that more than $50 million has been sent, along with American tanks, guns and ammunition, and reportedly, a special American mercenary force. According to Sean Gervasi, a consultant to the office of the United Nations Commissioner for Nambia, U.S. planes are already "flying missions over Angola" from Zaire for the purpose of "spotting troop movements and other targets." Gervasi further charges that U.S. Navy carriers have been stationed off the coast of Angola and are on "contingency orders" meaning that they are armed, have been assigned missions, and are waiting to be ordered into action. — — - - — , - One of these ships, the Independence, "carries 90 F-4 Phantom jets," and has been armed with "several hundred ,tons of napalm.

Some of our classes end an hour after the “teacher” leaves. Some of our classes keep meeting after the semester ends, during “vacations.” Like I said we don’t belong here, which may be all the more reason to keep us. When our classes get too big, we don’t move to a bigger we divide in two, or lecture room and smile three. We study and respect an ethnic group others make jobkes about PolislKAmericans. Sometimes we hug each other when classes end. We study what it’s like to be you and me, not what the experts tell us we are. We study and practice anarchism in the stomach of a giant bureaucracy!! Yeah we don’t belong here, which is all the more reason to keep us. With our friends, students and critics, we maintain a community of about 300 people for less than the price of one professor. Ketter could leam to balance a budget from us! We don’t train people to be employed by IBM, Marine Midland or Coca-Cola. That’s a big reason we don’t belong. We don’t “train” people to belong. Damn, this is getting to be a contradictory exercise in airing dirty laundry. Everything seems so clean! It could be I’m so used to living in this sort of dirt that I’ve grown blind and foolish at such a young age!! I’m so mixed up I don’t know what to hide from Kctter’s committee and what to be proud of. Starting February 2, the review committee will be sitting in on College F classes, on our staff meetings (really eight friends), in our minds and hearts. Once again, we’ll have to walk the tightrope between being unique, so that we don’t duplicate the work of another University department, and not being too unique and different, cause then we don’t belong here. I want the review committee to say we what a DEFINITELY • don’t belong here which is all the more reason to compliment keep us. - - - — - — - Under the old and worn cover of anti-communism. Ford and Kissinger are seriously threatening to embroil our nation in another Vietnam-type war in Angola, against the majority of the Angolan people.

On the issue of a Basic Writing Course, I feel since our University removed basic requirements, the quality of our education has been falling by the wayside. Our purpose in attending a University Center like ours is to obtain a well-rounded education, not a concentration in a given field or subject.

These courses were assigned lettered It is news to no one that New York State is experiencing financial problems. Governor Carey has decided to cut about tein million dollars from the 1976—1977 SUNY budget. One potential source of savings that could, at the same time, be beneficial to large numbers of Buffalo students and faculty has been unfortunately overlooked. Since personnel must be cut, let it be the most expensive, This modest proposal is simply to consolidate Buffalo State College and this University, eliminating excess administrative bureaucrates and staff while combining existing facilities. The benefits of such an act are obviously numerous to both students and faculty even without the inevitable tremendous monetary savings.

Previous issues of The Spectrum, an article which appeared in Newsweek “Why Johnny Can’t Read,” and an article in the Reporter, “Why Johnny Can’t Right,” expressed a general feeling that students are lacking in their reading and writing skills, So I feel that if these requirements are instituted, the students and faculty will both benefit. Danny Sweet Dylan, he is a’ changing To the Editor. In response to Amanda B. Reckonwith’s critique on Bob Dylan’s latest triumph — Desire, I would like to say a few words in support of this effort. Every Dylan album I have ever listened to is very different from the next. Free Wheelin', Bringing It All Back Home, John Wesley Harding and finally Desire, are all entitites in themselves. In some cases, even a true Dylan admirer will find that it takes time to get into the new sounds, causes and very new images portrayed by the Dylan of 1975. It took a good three months for me to realize that Blood on the Tracks is of comparable quality to such monumental classics as The Times They are a Changin or A nother Side of Bob Dylan. Amanda Reckonwith fails to understand that we are not in 1965. The times have changed and it is ’ nonsensical to demand that one’s “rap” remain exactly the same. That, by nature, would be contradictory to Dylan’s basic uniqueness. Desire may be a bit more straight forward than Blonde on Blonde but songs like “Joey” and “Isis” are worthy of greater attention and far more deserving of serious consideration that Miss , Reckonwith is willing to allow. But then again, how believable is Miss Reckonwith’s review when first she claims to be a long time advocate of Bob Dylan’s songwriting as well as defender of his musical talent, and then states that in the past, Dylan has had difficulty writing songs with confusing poetic images or rhyme schemes. Miss Reckonwith, get your act together before you refer to Bob Dylan’s tunes as “lame.” Lewis Abrams Uphill road to professional schools To the Editor Bob Rose’s article in the January 28 issue concerning what he termed “Pre-Med Syndrome” was interesting, and something that a lot of students could relate to. Mr. Rose clearly and accurately expressed the unfortunate circumstances facing many hard working students, and he also mentioned a grave problem that many people are not even aware of, the consequences of which are equally as unfortunate. But I do not feel that they are irreparable. What I am referring to is a point made very unnoticingly in the second to last paragraph of the article. It states that for the students who are not accepted to medical schools, there are alternatives, namely foreign medical schools, osteopathic, dental, optometry or podiatry schools. It is true that these can be considered alternatives in the sense that the qualifications are less rigid, but the problem is that these fields need people qualified and desiring to undertake professions very different from medicine, not the medical school refusals. The profession of dentistry is one example of a field becoming floundered by people who wanted to study medicine, and the two fields are vastly different! Dentistry requires a creative artistic skill not nearly as essential in medicine. The problem is that the incoming students are totally unaware of what’s ahead of them. Students who begin to realize that their index is not as high as needed, begin to consider these other fields and they will not be able to find out if they will enjoy them until they have become committed to them. Even worse, is that .these professions are taking in the wrong people, and this is leading to their own ruination. What is needed are courses of orientation for each field to help the student understand just what he’s getting into before it’s too late, much like the Pharmacy Department already has here. This would help to alleviate the strain of everyone trying to get to the same place, not only by possibly helping students, find out if they are interested in other field, but also that they may not be interested in medicine! What the professions need is personnel dedicated to what they’re doing. Frank Celenza Monday, 2 February 1976 The Spectrum .

Thursday night, the Bulls again ran into the New Jersey team’s unyielding defense and dropped a 59-49 decision. This time, however, there was no full-court press. “We don’t have the players we had last year,” said FDU coach A1 LoBalbo. Instead, they played a solid zone defense. “They played the best defense they’ve played all year, especially in the last ten minutes,” he said. It was during those last ten minutes that the Bulls could only score three baskets, capping off a half in which the Bulls managed-only 18 points. The Bulls had taken their first lead of the game, a modest two point edge, when they fell fait, and Fairleigh Dickinson put in 21 points to Buffalo’s six. Knights improve “In the second half, we had a great selection of shots. We ran the offense well,” noted LoBalbo. “With better shots, it forced us to play better defense. We tried to do things in the first half that we’re not capable of doing,” he continued, talking about why FDU only had a two point led at the end of 20 minutes. “But we played up to our capabilities in the second half.” It was exactly the opposite for Buffalo, who played nowhere near their capabilities. A very disappointed Buffalo coach Leo Richardson said, “Our minds weren’t with it tonight. I guess we just don’t have people who are winners. All we have are publicity seekers.” Richardson was upset because the Bulls continually forced their shots and passes. “We didn't take care of the ball. We rushed out shots. But the main thing that hurt us was# turnovers.” During the game’s concluding ten minutes when the Bulls almost had to get lucky to score, they turned the ball over five consecutive times, scored, and then committed four more turnovers before attempting another shot. Experience necessary The Bulls’ bench was no help, since as Richardson explained. "Against a team like Fairleigh Dickinson, you have to go with experienced players. Our subs can play against a team like Brockport [that plays racehorse basketball] but not against a disciplined team.” Richardson has been struggling with inconsistent play all year, without success. Last week, the Bulls played two extremely strong games but lost them both. This week, they played two poor games, and Richardson’s confidence in his players seems to have eroded sharply. "I’m so disgusted, I don’t know what I’m going to do,” he said.

Accepts position of NAIA by Paige Mfllcr Assistant Sports Editor The Dean of the School of Health Education and Director of Athletics, Harry Fritz, has accepted the position of Executive Secretary of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA), headquartered in Kansas City. Kritz, whose appointment was announced December IS, plans to leave his job at Buffalo in mid-April. “I’m staying on for a smoother transition here,” he said. Fritz’s resignation brings up the problem of a successor. The Assistant Dean of the School of Health Education, Martin McIntyre, has accepted a job at Texas Tech University. Finding a successor from within the Athletic Department may be difficult since the only member of the department who has had administrative experience, Edwin Muto, has been in poor health, although he has resumed his duties recently. Finding a successor from outside may also be difficult, since many people would be reluctant to take over a program whose future is constantly in doubt. In any event, Fritz’s successor will be chosen by President Robert Ketter and Vice President for Health Sciences, Carter Pannill, Nevertheless, Fritz was optimistic about the future of athletics here. “The future is reasonably good,” he said. “Students have begun to appreciate the people in Health Sciences. We’ve got our faults, but they’re beginning to realize that we exist for the students.” When asked if he thought athletics would be eliminated completely, he replied, “I don’t see that happening.” Fritz reconsidered Fritz was first asked to be the head of the NAIA back in January, 1954. “1 did not have the time to pursue the candidacy then,” he said. Nevertheless, the NAIA didn’t forget about him, and when A.O. Duer, the organization’s head for the last 26 years retired in July, Fritz was recontacted and accepted. Fritz has not had time to formulate definite plans for his position with the NAIA, which is an organization similar to the NCAA. It encompasses nearly 600 four-year schools, most of low or moderate enrollment. The NAIA’s main policy, that For a guy like Liddy, it was a good move G. Gordon Liddy, one of the more (CPS) crazed characters to tumble out of the Watergate drama, has undergone somewhat of an ideological flipflop. It seems Liddy. once a county narc in upstate New York who was the first official to investigate Timothy Leary, is now aiding convicted drug users. Danny Wilkerson, or “Mr. Diamond D” as he likes to be called, got Liddy to help him prepare a motion that convinced a judge to drop his marijuana conviction. Kiddy was only returning a favor Mr. Diamond D taught him to play chess while the two were cellmates at Danbury Federal Prison. — — Yale faculty opts for failure Yalies may once again be flunkies, (CPS) thanks to a recent faculty vote that will restore “F” grades at the New Haven school. For four years Yale students have been able to slip by without an “F” blotting their records. But now, in a reaction against grade inflation, “F’s” will go back on student’s transcripts in an effort to increase the credibility of the permanent academic records. “The present situation has produced the absurd situation in which a failing grade is more desirable in the eyes ofmany students than a “D” or even a “C,” a faculty report said. But since so many Yale students have their eyes set on a graduate or professional school, fear of receiving a “C” or “D” has kept them from experimenting with different courses. — Harry Fritz athletics is an integral part of a student’s education, is one in which Fritz firmly believes, and he believes that the organization’s 32 regional tournaments in 16 sports are well worth continuing. NA1A in good shape Fritz, who will be aided by the NAIA’s executive board, feels that now is an excellent time to take over the NAIA, since the NCAA controls its members too heavily, and many schools want autonomy in athletics. He also wants to extend the NAIA’s services to its members. One likely way to do this is to increase even though the organization is in relatively good financial condition right now. Negotiating for a television contract for the highly prestigious NAIA basketball championships will be one of Fritz’s plans, as well as getting contributions from major league baseball and the National Hockey League for developmental programs. “I’m looking forward to the position,” he said. “In fact, I wish I was there now.” Buffalo’s loss will be NAIA’s gain. As a result of the experiment, the number of “A” grades at the school has risen by more than a third over the past four years. Last quarter, “A’s” accounted for 43% of all grades given. “The system is plainly dishonest,” says Yale history professor Donald Kagan. Students, however, do not agree. They have opposed the move to restore “Ps” Just as they have opposed the iniation next fall of the “W” grade for students who withdraw from courses after mid-term. The new changes mark the 13th time this century Yalehas revised its grading system. * Wringing the most from the phone company (CPS) One of the first stabs at charging telephone customers for directory assistance calls is off to a poor start in New York. The New York plan begun last year gives customers three free calls to directory assistance each month. After the third information request, each call costs a dime. If the customer doesn’t use up the allotted number of free calls, the balance is credited to his account. Although critics, charged that the phone company would be hauling in additional revenue after the directory charge plan was started, just the opposite happened. New York Telephone Company has taken in about 5780,000 from customers during October who made more than the allowed number of directory calls. But the company also gave away $2.1 million in credit -to customers who made fewer than three calls to their operator. — , �Skaters edged by UnionCollege team by Larry Amoros Spectrum Staff Writer When it was all over at the Tonawanda Sports Center last Thursday night. The Union College Dutchman had skated to a 6-5 overtime win over the Buffalo Bulls, four players had received game misconduct penalties and Buffalo defenseman Tony Scaringi lay in the hospital with a severe gash in his head and a mild concussion. It was the aftermath of the most exciting, spectacular ice hockey game the Bulls have been involved in this year. While the term “grudge match” may not actually have been appropriate the Bulls certainly were aware of the 11-1 drubbing they received at the hands of Union early last January. The Bulls wanted this game very badly, not only to atone for the earlier embarrassment with Union, but for their drive toward an ECAC Division II playoff berth. The feeling among the players was that if the Bulls could beat Union, then they would be afforded the luxury of a split against Oswego State on February 13 and 14. But this was not to be. first scoring chance of the game, though. Center Kip Churchill came in on a breakaway, but Buffalo netminder Johnny Moore held his ground, and forced Churchill’s shot to go awry. After a scoreless second period in which the Bulls outshot Union 13-10, it appeared that Buffalo would be able to maintain its 4-2 lead by carefully planned forechecking, and register its fifth straight victory over Division II competition. But a funny thing happened on the way to the victory celebration. The Bulls didn’t win. The Dutchmen scored three times in the final period to take a 5-4 lead, and only Toughie Gruarin’s deflection of a Mike Caruana slapper sent the game into overtime. Overtime too much for Bulls Hie extra frame ended in less than six minutes, when Union left wing Brad Hinterberger took a Grant Judd pass, and tipped it behind Moore. The play originated as Judd, flying down the right boards, rifled a pass just wide of Moore’s crease to Hinterberger, who was cutting in.

But the rangy winger saw Judd coming, and avoided the check, causing the Union rookie to slam himself into the boards, falling unconscious to the ice. “I sidestepped him, he hit the boards,” said Busch. “He was out when he hit the ice.” What happened after that depends on who you talk to. Union coach Ned Harkness said Scaringi no sap “I was the only player from our side over there,” said Scaringi two days later. 1 wanted to see how he (Judd) was. He seemed “One small incident like this hurt. Harkness said something, takes away from a good hockey which I don’t want to repeat, and game. Repercussions will occur pushed me out of the way.

The referees saw things differently too as the Bulls wound up on the short end of the penalty calls, a matter which caused Wright to ponder the situation. “I don’t know how Tony got involved, but somebody pulls a two-hander, and they come out of it with an advantage. 1 don’t understand it.” Athletic department Drastic cuts may be coming There is suddenly a distinct possibility that the intercollegiate sports program at Buffalo may be drastically cut as a result of University-wide cutbacks. Reports indicate that $152,000 promised as payment for athletic coaches may be unavailable for the 1976-77 year. Such cutbacks would make funding of varsity sports in 1976-77 impossible at their present levels and probably not feasible at lower levels. Sources say that new cutbacks in the University budget are responsible for the possible cutbacks in athletic funding. present y n turned what had been an exciting game into a sickening debacle. Union eventually won the game 6-5 in overtime. was held out of the Health Sciences budget for 1976-77. These funds were intended for coaching positions, and when they were cut, the athletic department was promised that the positions involved would be taken care of “in some fashion,” according to Fogel. All monies in jeopardy Some of this money was allocated to pay for these positions, but over $110,000 is still needed to cover the full complement of coaches’ salaries. However, all $152,000 is now being re-evaluated in light of these most recent cutbacks. Revenue down Another report indicated that the new Charles M.

Planned for immediately after tonight’s Music Committee-sponsored concert, the blackout was decided upon last Tuesday for their own by UUAB members in responsibility “We don’t decisions. frhwdnHng support of Fine Arts Film tfdnk elected officials should be Committee Chairperson nuking those choices for us, or Dennis Fox. even reviewing those choices,” Threatened with Benders said. Graduate student James dismissal last week for his refusal to comply with a Sub Smalley, Chairman of Sub Board, admitted that he “personally could not see choosing a film,” but added that “the films are not for the Fox has scheduled ipring, become the center of a the question.” Smalley claimed nivobing a large that “spot checks” on employees controversy over the place” in —mber of student groups and are “done all the “real world” of large corporations, and that “Sub The dedans to cal a halt to Board has to be responsible to somebody Smalley feels that his one fro* unjustly Bond Friday, 30 January 1976 State Unhwnity of Now York at Buffalo VoL 26, No. SO directive to caocd ax - Wi£°*DMdra ” of have * by Ridiaid Korman Managing Editor A SUMY Task Force assigned to study student activity fees has concluded in its unreleased report that such fees may be used to fund “student organizations or corporations,” The Spectrum has learned. The report also recommends that activity fee money be permitted to fund activities involving "advocacy or expression or views or opinions providing that these funds are not used in support of an extra campus political committee, party or candidate.” — The Task Force was composed of six students and nine administrators from the SUNY Central Administration and representative state-operated campuses. These new provisions, generally seen as representing student interests, may be rejected by SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer or the SUNY Board of Trustees before the report recommendations are adopted as policy. According to informed sources in Albany, recommendations were passed by a dim majority within the Task Force, and therefore, will probably, be -questioned when the Trustees review the report sometime within the coming month. the presumably Existing guidelines governing the use of student activity fees do not specify that funds may be used for student corporations or activities involving expression of views or opinions. The guidelines only that fees be used for activities ox an “educational, recreational, cultural or social nature.'” require Director Dave Benders and Music Cormninee Chairperson Robbie after the Board formulated a list of three demands. Hus hst was presented So Sub Board’s Board of Directors at a meeting held last nirfit, after The Spectrum went to press. The ArmamM were: reinstatement of Fox in his position as chairperson; complete approval of the Fim Committee’s original weekend film schedule; and agreement upon a charter or contract specifying the exact degree to which UUAB is accountable to Sub Board. . Benders said this contract must allow program choices made by the various committees to stand without argument from Sub Board in order to be acceptable to UUAB. The committee heads approved initially by Sub Board must, also be allowed full UUAB chairpersons as well as by other Sub Board employee*, including University Press Division Director Linda Enke. In a letter dated January 22 and addressed to Smalley and Sub Board’s Vice Chairman Glenn Davis and Treasurer Brace Campbell, Enke stated that she had “always been under the impression that the UUAB Film Committee was committed to offering students an alternative to the CAC, IRC and local theatre films,” and that “Sub Board, if it wanted, could be proud of its contribution to alternative movie programming.” Pointing out that SA, for instance, “nearly always votes as a block” at Sub Board meetings, Enke suggested that there must be at least some dissenting opinions on any issue that comes before the Board, and complained that Sub Board is no longer “a responsive, open-minded forum for student interests.” The majority of her staffconcurred on these points, she added. Because the wording of the guidelines is vague, the Task Force sought to clarify them and determine the extent to which so-called political activities may be funded. Controveisy over interpretation of the guidelines have occurred regularly on individual campuses since the guidelines were first passed in 1970. At that time, local campus presidents were given review power over what was previously unsupervised spending of activity fee money by student governments. The Task Force Chairman, Buff State President EJC. Frctwell, Jr., circulated draft copies of the report in August, I97S, inviting comments from administrators, students and SUNY Central staff members. Several respondents expressed strong opposition to corporations. Chine objects Among the opposing statements was a letter from Thomas Craine, assistant to President Robert {Cette; (neither was listed as a Task Force member), concerned over language “sufficient to assure students full freedom in using funds essentially as they wish.” The proposed guidelines encourage students to establish corporate stuctures, allow funding for political advocacy, permit funds to be transferred to i£., they independent corporations, etc. immodestly provide the ability to launder' monies in neariy unlimited ways,” Craine wrote. Similarly, Russ Gugino, assistant to the SUNY — Vice Chancellor for Univenity Affairs, said the use of mandatory fees to suuport purely personal expressions of views by individuals or groups is a “blatant misuse of the fee,” and asked that such provisions be eliminated. Gugino is generally seen as a good index of the SUMY Chancellors point of view. controversial The future of the two recommendations could effect funding of the two statewide student corporations funded from activity fees, the Student Association of the State University (SASU) and the New York Public Interest Reserach Group (NYP1RG), the Albany source said, incorporation has become a trend in student organizations across the country, especially among income generating clubs and publications. At the State University at Buffalo, for example, Schussmeisters Ski Club and The Spectrum arc not-for-profit corporations. SASU and NYP1RG Although SASU and NYPIRG are equally eligible for funding, NYPIRG’s status is more precarious because of an increasing tendency among SUNY administrators to view the two groups differently, the source observed. SASU is seen as a group benefiting students “as where NYPIRG members function as students and private citizens; SASU exists exclusively within SUNY; NYPR1G has member schools outside the SUNY system. students,” the source added, At this University, clarification of fee guidelines by the SUNY Trustees is of particular concern because of the Ketter Administration’s recent questioning of organizations funded with student activity fees. In the past few months, the Ketter Administration has: —Reduced by one-half the volume of sales at the SA Record Coop following a complaint by Cavages Record Stores which said the Coop’s existence on a state operated campus posed “ruinous competition;” * -Cut off funds to operate the student pharmacy in Michael Hall until the pharmacy license is transferred from Sub Board to the University; —Withheld approval of a one year contract between SA and NYPIRG, claiming the wording of the contract involving the services NYPIRG supplies to the student body is vauge; —Requested to begin reviewing expenditures of TheSpectrum. Debate over use of student activity fee money has often centered around the students’ freedom to use mandatory fee money as they see fit and the Univesrity’s responsibility to ensure that the fees are used in accordance with SUNY guidelines According to a source dose to the Task Force, the report recommendations involving corporations and advocacy groups are not likely to remain. The students on the Task Force apparently won a majority through the cooperation of one or two administrative representatives who voted with them. Fretweel also pointed out in a statement that a consensus was not reached, an indication of the disparity within the Task Force' and an invitation to the SUNY Chancellor and Trustees to strike down the amendments. �» * t "V f Increase of medical school grads sought The State Board of Regents has recommended an expansion in the number of medical school graduates to meet the increasing demand for physicians in New York State. The recommendations are based on the findings of a Medical School Enrollment and Physician Task Force. Presently there are 1500 medical school graduates a year in this state. The Board hopes to see 2000 a year by 1990,raising the number of doctors from 220 to 260 per 100,000 people. The Bgard also encourages medical students to take up less well-known specialities. Internal medicine, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology are all fields whose demand for practitioners will be steadily increasing in the next decade. Reordering expenses The Board also proposed that students pay a larger share of their medical and dental school costs, especially in public institutions. Highest priority, they said, should be directed at encouraging medical school upper-division places; and the state’s share of financing should be based on a reasonable portion, or about one-third of 1976-77 levels. Under this arrangement, students would absorb up to one third of their medical school expenses, with the remainder to be passed on to the federal government (now about 17 percent in the private schools and 15 percent in the public institutions) and institutional sources. The Regents recommended a state-financed program to support conversion of several community hospitals to teaching hospitals, in order to provide upper-division medical school places. The expansion of guaranteed loan limitations for medical school students from $2500 to $5000 a year, and an increase in the overall maximum from $10,000 J to $20,000 was also suggested.

A committee proposal, drawn up by professors Dings (English), John Edward Massaro (Biochemistry), and Ann McElroy (Anthropology), would allow an instructor to require P-I for all students in a particular class, but would guarantee the right to quick appeal for any student who is denied permission. Students who are closed out of a course would be placed on a first come, first serve “priority list.” Later, as people drop the course, students on the list might be allowed to register. by Paul Krehbiel Contributing Editor - ■; . *-• The only way to protect everyone’s jobs, the faculty member continued* was for teachers to work for “collective action” through the faculty union, the United University Professions (UUP). “The UUP on this campus has just gone on record in its last membership meeting as being opposed to any retrenchment,” the faculty member explained. At that meeting, James Lawler, Professor of Philosophy, moved several proposals outlining the union’s position on the budget situation; all of which were passed. from program to program. In- Biology the the College of Urban Studies, and Women’s Studies College, more than 70 percent of offered courses require Permission of Instructor. At the other extreme were Tolstoy College (College F), Speech Communications, Philosophy, German, French and Anthropology, which did not require P-I, in any courses unless a student desired a waiver of stated prerequisites or wished to take independent study. In its report, the committee said that wherever possible, departments should substitute lists of prerequisites for P-I, and that P-i should only be used in “courses in which its Use can be justified.” “We recognize only two clear-cut reasons for a student from a course: excluding underqualification (lack of prerequisite knowledge or skills) and overqualification. All others we regard as. exceedingly problematical, hence as requiring acts of interpretation and judgement from an arbitrator,” the committee wrote. ...

The committee emphasized in the report that it was not making other proposals that were “plainly implied by the larger view we have taken.” For example, it did not attempt to eliminate courses restricted to departmental majors. “The principle we have arrived at,” said the committee, “is the principle of open education for all matriculated students at the University: equal access to all courses for all students who are competent to take them.” If passed by the Faculty Senate, the proposal would still require the approval of President Robert Ketter before it goes into effect.

The UUP will adopt as its number one priority in contract negotiations that “no retrenchment of the bargaining unit” will occur for the duration of the contract. UUP’s present contract ends this spring The UUP will push for “a job security provision” that requires “just cause” for a dismissal. A continuing appointment would be granted after an individual has demonstrated adequate fulfillment of his or her position. The union also plans to fight for compensation for the losses sustained because of inflation, along with a “full cost of living clause,” and an additional salary increase for each year of the contract. Also, priority will be given to “raising, lower salaries more rapidly” than higher salaries. Finally, the. UUP will “adamantly oppose cutbacks in higher education” in New York State, and will publicly campaign for the defense of quality, inexpensive education that does not place “added burdens on poor, working-class and modest income families.” *A« expulsion.” Present problems In discussing the concept of P-I, the committee identified current rationales for requiring an instructor’s permission to take a class, which the report said represent “certain problems” for students. Many departments, it said, restrict certain xourses to ihajors by using P-I; others use it to give preference to majors or seniors Who may need it to graduate. So'metimes P-I is used to assure that prerequisites have been completed or that equivalent experience has been gained. Additionally, P-1 is used in a minority of cases to include students who would contribute to the class because of particular the academic or socieconomic background, committee noted. United action needed A faculty member from Educational Studies said that the memo clearly indicates which group of teachers are “most disposable” in the eyes of University administrative officers. The teacher expressed strong disagreement with Petty’s approach to the budget situation, stating that' University workers should be talking about how to protect everyone’s job, rather than about who would be cut and who would | No appeal now The proposal also mandates that “all cases of appeal be settled by consideration of the strictly educational appropriateness of die instructor’s act of ' Undisclosed faculty sources indicated that junior faculty members would be the first to go in the Faculty of Educational Studies if budget cuts affect that academic unit. In a recently revealed confidential memo from Walter T. Petty, Actirig Provost of the Faculty of Educational Studies, department Chairmen and Directors were assured that senior faculty members would not be seriously affected. Petty explained that the budget situation remained “unclear,” but he was convinced that “we will be subjected to a considerable reduction.” If that does take place, cuts should be made so that “tenured faculty suffer no more than necessary he emphasized. SHAWN PHILLIPS P-I requirement, and to complete screening for the class by the end of the first week. Any student .who does not receive permission from the instructor at that time can be removed. If the student disagrees with his exclusion from the class, he can appeal to a special P-I arbitrator in the Dean of Undergraduate Education. The proposal states: “The instructor must respond with reasons when asked by the Dean’s office acting on an appeal. The appeal must be decided within a week 6f filing, preferably much’"sooner;” and ‘The decision of the Dean's office is final and binding.” Editor’s note: The following is the second in two articles on recent Faculty Senate reports.

The committee hopes that the survey will indicate how students feel their Mandatory Fees should be distributed. “We hope that students will have a big input in the distribution of mandatory fees and not decide to be apathetic,” stated Lynn Bittner, Chairman of the Financial Priorities Committee. “This way, we can represent the ideas of the student body when we present our findings to the Financial Assembly,” she added. The survey will be about three pages long and will cover eight categories of activies. “Last year’s survey questions were geared to determine student opinion on athletics. Bfttner explained. This year the survey is unbiased.” student After the results of the survey are gathered, committee will report to the SA Financial, Assembly and to the students. “We are also planning an interviewing campaign.” Bittner added. “We would like to interview at least 500 students about the survey and about their opinions. The interviews will not confine us to simple yes/no answers.” Bittner stated that the subjects for the interviews will be chosen by computer at random, in conjunction with the Educational Testing Service, a professional organization. fhe to area day care centers over-all basis, “non-profit” centers out-qualified “profit” centers. Some reasons for this, according to Egan, are that the non-profit centers are funded and affiliated with Catholic Charities and local churches. The employees of these church-affiliated centers are often clergy or nuns and this cuts back operating costs. Also, the non-profit centers are eligible for the federal meal plan for children whereas profit centers arc not. These factors enable the non-profit centers to spend more money on equipment and facilities. The cost to the parent at profit or non-profit centers, however, is similar. by Paid Maggkrtto -/ ’ .

This argument is borne out by the facts. Women don’t choose to work, they have to, and arrangements don’t exist.

Chancellor Ernest Boyer said the reductions in the budget will reduce SUNY enrollment by 5000 students below the present levels, eliminate 1000 faculty and staff positions, and increase dormitory and room rent charges. The cutbacks will also close SUNY-operated high schools, abolish the state scholarship program for graduate students, impose a 16 percent pay cut for about 2000 SUNY employees who will be shifted from a 12 to a 10 month working year, force a cutback in important medical services at SUNY’s two University hospitals, and decrease state support of Community Colleges by 8 percent. ' Adjustments The proposed cuts follow a $10 million expenditure ceiling imposed on SUNY in the 1975-76 budget. “That ceiling lias already caused SUNY to eliminate, 530 faculty and staff positions and reduce academic programs, maintenance and other services on many of its campuses,” Boyer said. He admitted, however, that Carey is doing what must be done state-wide to face the present tight financial situation. “The Uhiycrsity is determined to accept austerity, to. bring fiscal stability to New York State,” he said. “At the same time the University has been hit,” he continued. “We cannot continue to drain the resources of SUNY and keep its Vitality on top of the cuts intact. The moves we are now forped to make already suffered force the University to ejchause all possibilities for significant savings and increasing iqcQme consistent with its scope and public mission.” Boyer declared that education must be reaffirmed in New York as a necessity, and not “aluxury.”s «I f*| v “This is a young and vigorous University. We are determined to remain strong while accommodating to the current crisis,” he pledged. - - U'. - Marriage dips as divorce jumps (CPS) Marriage is proving to be about as popular as unemployment these days, with the number of people deciding not to marry almost doubling in some age groups since 1970. A Census Bureau report recently released on marriage and other living arrangements shows that as of last March, the number of persons between 25 and 34 who never married has risen by nearly 50 percent since 1970. While 2.8 million people in that age group had never married in 1970, the figure in March of 1975 was 4.2 million persons. When people do marry, they marry later in life, according to the Census figures. The median age at which men marry for the first time is 23.5 years, while the median age for womens’ first marriage is 21.2 years. The corresponding figures for 1970 showed that people married slightly younger, at 23.2 years and women at 20.8 years. At the same time that fewer people are deciding to marry, more are beginning to realize that they don’t want to continue to be married. The divorce rate is continuing the rapid rise that began in 1968. The divorce rate, according to provisional figures compiled by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, has increased two percent over the 4.6 per thousand population mark in 1974. What’s behind an increase in divorces and drop in marriages? Census Bureau officials say they don’t ask since they’re a government agency and can’t invade the privacy of people. But Arthur Norton, chief of the Census Bureau’s Marriage and Family Branch took a guess for the Washington Post, saying, “When you think about it, it seems that perhaps a new set of values is being tried out and maybe established by young adults.” He said that instead of leaving home to marry and raise a family, more young people seem to be establishing a non-family household after leaving home the first time, pursuing a career or education before deciding to raise a family. Although it’s assumed that these people will marry at a later date, Norton said, it may be that we will have a larger proportion staying single throughout their lives. — Long lines for dope?

The emphasis has now shifted from exploration of the moon to explaining the origin of the planets. Current interest centers on the two un-manned Viking spacecrafts that are scheduled to land July 4 and sometime in September. Bill Berbing of the National Space and Aeronautics Administration (NASA) news room reports these spacecrafts can scoop up soil from the planet’s surface and its analyze composition for the possible presence of living organisms. The spacecrafts will also take samples of the atmosphere, measure any magnetic forces, take seismic readings, record impacts on the Martian surface, make thermal and water vapor mappings, take panoramic color phenomena, the distribution of volcanoes, and earthquakes pictures of the surface, and take sea-floor spreading and deep sea pictures of the planet as it orbits trenches. It is theorized that Mars and approaches.

Land features Scientists are hopeful that this space mission will further provide information about Martian land features and internal structures. Most scientists believe the channels on Mars’ surface is water-formed, although presently the wind causes most erosion. Other land features include volcanoes, from which the atmosphere and water vapor have originated, and great canyons, some as large as 4 miles deep, 50 miles wide and 3000 miles long. The canyons are believed to be formed as a result of the separation of plates, similar to those of the Earth’s surface, according to the theory known as plate tectonics. The theory claims there are a number of plates on the earth’s crust “floating” over a more dense layer, and is used to explain, among other natural g Tht India Studvnt Rssoc. pptitnii a movit THE RDVER5RRY by The Internationally acdaimed director - SHTYHJIT RHY Sat.

The craft could be used over 100 times and its boosters up to 50 times, which would result in a great savings. Currently, space hardware can only be used only once. The news room reported that in the President’s budget for the 1976-77, fiscal more year cutbacks from NASA will result in 500 layoffs. Down from a peak of over 40,000 civil servants and a budget of $5.1 billion in 1969 before the Apollo II was launched, NASA currently employs less than 25,000 people and has a budget of S3.1 billion. Less than 1 percent of the U.S. budget goes to NASA, compared to 26 percent for national defense and 40 percent for welfare programs. NASA estimates that for every dollar they receive, $7 are returned to the economy, through jobs and the sale of computers and other technological apparatus abroad.

EditPrial Miif* 'fc* •• - asm *v .V," } .*W' ' '■ The old yellow schoolbus The quality of bus service between the three campuses point has deteriorated considerably since the beginning of this semester. By last November, it seemed as though the Blue Editor’s note: The following letter was sent to Association Executive Vice President Arthur Bird Bus Company, after nearly two years of trial-and-error, Student Lalonde. had finally put together an efficient, well-regulated timetable I feel compelled to reply to your letter to the which minimized the hassles of commuting around this editor (The Spectrum 1/26/76), because, instead of sprawling University. At least the buses were comfortable. clarifying any alleged misconceptions regrading Sub Board I’s actions against the Film Committee’s In December, the employees of Blue Bird went on strike weekend series, jt raises more questions than it and the Administration, evidently forewarned, swiftly answers, and is repleat with gross generalizations, contradictions and half-truths which are designed replaced Blue Bird with the Grand Island Transport and not to clarify the issue to the University community Ridge Road Bus Companies. Under the circumstances, this but to deceive them. Point No. 1: temporary measure was all that could be expected. “(W] (Sub Board Point by But when classes resumed earlier this month, by which time the strike had ended. Grand Island and Ridge Road were still servicing most of the University's busing needs while Blue Bird was retained only for the Main Street to Ridge Lea route. The 12,000 plus students who rely on the buses are now faced with grossly overcrowded, off-schedule rides on vehicles which were designed to shuttle five-year olds back and forth to grammar school. Between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. the situation is at best tolerable, but during the peak commuting hours in the morning and late afternoon, chaos ensues. The early-morning run between Amherst and Ridge Lea is one example of this ridiculous situation. A packed bus departs from the Ellicott Tunnel, standing room only (which is especially hazardous, and perhaps illegal, for there are no overhead bars for passengers to grip), and within five minutes, arrives at Governor's, where more often than not, it cannot accommodate all of the students waiting to board. The yollow wonder next proceeds to the Law School, where several students disembark, leaving at least a few empty spaces which could have been used by the students left stranded at Governor's. e In your letter, you state that I), in no way, want to ‘ban’ any films.” Yet, in the very next paragraph, you state that “... the Film Committee chose to ignore the Board of Directors (of Sub Board I) and kept the same films. We responded by singling out eight films which would not be shown (my emphasis) to be replaced by more popular titles.” First of all, the last statement reeks with vindictiveness. But more important than that, Mr. Lalonde, you have contradicted yourself. How can you possibly justify your initial denial with your next statement? How can you say that the ordering of the elimination from the weekend series of certain films that do not meet Sub Board I’s criteria for popularity is not, in fact, a ban of them? You know as well as 1 that most of the movie houses of Buffalo wouldn’t touch most of those “eliminated” films with a ten-foot pole because they figure that they won’t make any money off of them. If this is true (and you and I know damn well it is), how are we to have the opportunity (not to mention the right ) to see these films? Can you explain that one, Mr. Lalonde? Point No. 2: You state in your letter that “(Ulnfortunately, not to many students are coming to see the UUAB films. When a total of 87 people come for all three performances of a film, there is something wrong.” What film are you talking kbout? You seem to have, in the first place, the gall to think that most people are going to buy that argument, especially with only a single mysterious example. Well, let’s look at some concrete evidence: The UUAB Film Committee last semester 1 not made up for losses incurred by the previous only This scenario occurs several times a day, and not just Film Committee during the 1974-75 year (a year between Amherst and Ridge Lea. One possible alternative when they showed an over-abundance of your films) but made a profit of would be to have one or two shuttle buses operating so-called “popular” $1000 over its expenditures: approximately exclusively on the Amherst Campus. That way, buses How can you possibly justify the singling 2 between Main Street and Amherst, or Ridge Lea and out of films such as Louis Malle’s Zazie dans le and Lina Wcrtmuller’s Swept Away when Amherst, could avoid the time-consuming, dizzying metro Malle’s film Lacombe Lucien and Wetmuller double encirclement of the new campus. feature.

This makes you no better than a at this University, school buses are as important as textbooks Lyndon Johnson or Richard Nixo'n (to use overtly labored examples). and classrooms. Point No. 3: You state that “we (Sub Board I) do not want to turn the Conference Theater into another CAC type movie house. But we do want more of a balance in the film programming.” What db you call the current film listing? What do you call West Side Story, The Band Wagon, Lenny, The Wild Child, Last Tango in Paris, The Friday, 30 January 1976 Vol. 26, No. 50 Front Page, Day of the Locust, Sisters, Brother Can You Spare a Dime?, Love and Death, Nashville, Editor-In-Chief Amy Dunkin French Connection II, The Magic Flute and Editor Richard Korman Managing Rollerball?

On the other hand, Mr. Lalonde, I was informed by Film Committee members that all you did was attend a few meetings and submit two lists of films you wanted shown. You did nothing to help Dennis and the others put out a viable film program. Point No. 5: To comment on your last paragraph, I too, after much reflection, have to agree that Mr. Van Nortwick shouldn’t have been singled out for dubious complicity in actions resulting in the passage of your proposals. However, I think that you yourself are trying to pass the buck over to James Smalley when you state that “if anyone wants to bitch, James Smalley is the man to shout at. He is a graduate student (what does that mean, Mr. Lalonde?) and Chairman of Sub Board I. As such, he is the chief officer and person responsible for Sub Board’s actions.” Mr. Smalley may be officially responsible but I, as a student (and a commuter at that) and others within this University, hold you personally responsible for the current state of affairs and you should own up to it; Finally, . . . ' At first glance, Mr. Lalonde, this statement sounds very noble and well-meaning of you, but a closer look brings out some very problematical aspects of your desires. Most importantly, when you go out and survey a group of students, about what films they would like to see, invariably what you will get on the list are films that they are familiar with. The man/woman on the street (or student for that matter) will not necessarily seek out information about new, unusual and different films and will only be familiar with those films which his/her community makes available for him/her. And as we all know, theaters are out to make money and not give us the best for our money. But to get on to the point of the matter, I was under the assumption that pennis Fox was chosen chairperson of the Film Committee because of his expertise in film, in being aware of many good, interesting (and popular) films that weren’t being shown in Buffalo for the previously stated reasons. How many other people (outside of many members of the Film Committee, students of film like me, and astute film freaks, in general) know about these films which I argue we have a right to see? First of all, as I see it, this University serves both a cultural and educational function. That is, to introduce us to new ideas, concepts, cultures, etc. The Film Committee, as a vital and integral part of this University, has a moral obligation to not only book films that “entertain” and nothing more, but those films which not only “entertain,” but open up new vistas, new worlds for us. Film is one of the most unique mediums for getting ideas and concepts across. By denying us access to these films, you are subverting that obligation. And anyway, if all of these supporters of your ideas arc so numerous, why haven’t they joined the Film Committee to change it’s so-called "heretical” policies? The Film Committee is open to all members of this University. You don’t have to be appointed (like in Sub Board I) to become a member. All you have to do is have any interest in film, be it “popular” or otherwise. ’Also, the^FilA"Committee meetings are open members and non-members alike. All can speak at a Film Committee meeting. Only those people with an issue on the agenda may speak at a Sub Board I meeting. I argue that the Film Committee, unlike Sub Board and the Student Association, is a true example of participatory democracy at work. Also, you and your cohorts on Sub Board I and the Student Association Executive Committee think that it is easy to run a Film Committee. Do you have any conception as to the amount of work and frustration it takes to book films? First of all, people have to call or write to the distributors to find out whether films they want shown are available or not. Then there is the haggling over a price for rental. Then there are hassles over the scheduling of films so that the least amount of conflicts occur. And finally, one must make up the . ..... . .. . .... . .........

But there is one anomolous artifact in this gallery of cast-off art, an artifact which identifies my I freely confess it for what he friend really is: a Freak in Disguise. The artwork in question is a page from the 1903 Sears-Roebuck Catalog, blown up so big that it is the size of a refrigerator door. It features the garrish and erotic merits of an unlikely electrical belt, designed to cure in an average male every complaint imaginable by simply directing fantastic amounts of current to a wire and canvas ring which is then fitted around the penis. The model for this advertisement sports a thick handlebar mustache and is built like a boxing champion. The ring, dangling innocently from the electrical belt around his waist for purposes of display only, is, of course, huge. My mild-mannered friend the banker, in spite of his business-like appearance, and in spite of other outward and visible signs of his conservative profession, has obviously preserved within his consciousness that mild, but potentially disruptive, form of psychic disorder: a sense of humor. And along with millions of other people less than ten years ago. he instantly recognized the reprinted Saars-Roabuck Catalog for whet it really was all along: fantasy literature of the deepest and most — — compelling sort. It was inevitable that soon after this event, someone else would invent a more modern version of this rescued fantasy genre.

Robert Blake, in his pre-"Baretta" days, stars as a pint-size motorcycle cop with a vicious nature and an Alan Ladd fixation ("Did you know that Alan Ladd and me were the same height?^). Electra Glide, directed by James William Guercio, the producer of Chicago's first few albums, has a strong cult following and a lot of vehement opinion on both sides of the critical fense. Lenny, the other scheduled film for this weekend, has been cancelled, along with all other UUAB programming scheduled for tomorrow and featuring top jazz musicians of the Buffalo area and the University Philharmonia.

Arts Editors Randi Schnur and Bill Maraschiello here present their opinions of four of those films: Dog Day Afternoon, The Man Who Would Be King, Lucky Lady and The Sunshine Boys.) WCMOmG DaCK. With a bargain. The bizarre sequence of events that inspired Sidney Lumet's Dog Day Afternoon remains fascinating despite its familiarity. Who, after all, could have imagined a Vietnam veteran robbing a Brooklyn bank in order to finance a sex change operation for his male wife? The achievement of the film is that Lumet, screenwriter Frank Pierson, and a generally superlative cast have captured this fascination, as well as the immediacy and intimacy that makes Dog Day Afternoon an intensely involving experience. Lumet and company perceptively dovetail several layers of meaning, all integral to the event. A lot of its appeal is farcical, rising out of the inability of almost everyone to do anything right The parade of schleps includes two thieves (Al Pacino and John Cazale), who choose a hank with practically no money; a beefy policeman (Charles Durning) who has to coordinate hundreds of overzealous cops; and the bland bank employees who are held hostage. In fact, no one in the film is more hateful than the one fully competent character: the obnoxious, stony FBI man (James Broderick) who ultimately foils the robbery. The grossly disproportionate media coverage the robbery received made it the closest thing we're likely to see to Andy Warhol's 15 minutes when "everyone wilt be famous." The feeling we get when we see one of the hostages being interviewed, or a pizza boy delivering food to the bank (afterwards shouting, "I'm a fucking star\") is much the same gratification we feel when it appears that Pacino and Cazale might get away with it: someone we know has managed to beat the System.' There's also an effective tension working, which serves as a bond between the audience and the people involved, as well as those people themselves. Occasionally The low-comedy is too apparent, but the situation and the actions always ring true.

Clark Gable and Humphrey Bogart both died long before Huston's newest film finally went into production; but, as the story has it, the director is quite satisfied with the way things turned out anyway. ~ - At one point in the screenplay, the two British con men. Peachy and Danny, are asked by an awe-stricken Kaffir whether they are gods, and Huston had definite qualms about asking Bogie to reply, 'We're Englishmen, the- next best thing." The line comes far more naturally to Michael Caine and it is difficult to imagine any other actors replacing him and Sean Connery here with anything like their brilliant success. As a pair of ex-soldiers in colonial India intent on conquering a nearly inaccessible country and then making off with the national treasury, Connery and Caine show a cocky, off-handed, perfect courage in the face of near-disaster that places them among the very few heroes in recent cinematic history. The screenplay by Huston and Gladys Hill uses the same understatement and precision of detail, with the same wonderful result. The fireworks all erupt from the heart of the story itself; it only remained for those in charge to tame them, to give them the proper colors, forms and directions. The expert pyrotechnicians who put together The Man Who Would Be King has given us an unfailingly exciting adventure story, lots of gorgeously atmospheric photography, and a film partnership the quality of which Bogart and Gable (not to mention Bedford and Newman) could only dream about. Caine and Connery and richly for that matter, John Huston as well deserve the crowns to which Danny and Peachy couldn't hold on. — his patented restive rasp, "is that you can't tell the difference between us and our routines anymore." Simon, also, has no identity beyond his routines. It's reflex action: tap him on the funnybone and a joke comes out. What matters, though, isn't what Matthau and Burns do, but how they do it and that's as professionally as two performers ever could handle it. Matthau is everyone's cantankerous old relative belligerent and dense, but lovable and feisty to the last. Burris has a gentler quality, quieter and more resigned; he's.a beautiful object illustration of the art of growing old gracefully. And Matthau clearly means every word of it when, in describing his partner, he says: "No one could time a joke like him." Richard Benjamin, Matthau's nephew who brings the two together, is better than he's been since the days when he graced the Tube in "He and She." There's a very sad quality to The Sunshine Boys it's the same kind you experience when you see Grouch Marx on TV, or Jack Benny just before his death. Seeing these people, our models of cleverness and comic skill for so long, succumbing to their years is affecting, even when it happens fictionally. But countering this is a great, victorious balance: George Burns, close to 80, handling himself so splendidly in what may be his last curtain call. —B.M. - — (•I BEER wine cheese AND MORE!!!

Their apparently conscious departures from the expected are, well, interesting but (with the possible exception of Star Number Two) they are refusing to give us precisely what they give best. and the resulting film is not nearly as intriguing as is the. question of what director Stanley Donen could have been thinking of when he made such silly decisions. The Lucky Lady is a boat or, rather, a series of boats that get bigger each time the reel is changed which Claire, Walker and Kippy use to run booze from Mexico into California during Prohibition. The force of each character's avarice waxes and wanes, along with the enthusiasm of the local Coast Guard. But at least one of them always seems to have the strength to push the others into just one more fun-filled and death-defying run, untily death almost succeeds in defying them in the person of mean Christy McTeague, “a slimy octopus strangling all the independent runners." This only makes things more interesting to our three heroes, though, spurring a small armade of temporarily united minor businessmen to grapple with the meanest octopus in the sea. Reynolds ’earns special notice during the big battle scene by his total (and, let us hope, intentional) lack of coordination. He even loses the girl, who consents to make love to him once and then graciously explains that "I'm only doin' this 'cause I never done it on a boat before." The sets (particularly the interior of the San Diego hotel in which the trio blows its first* returns) and Liza's constumes are as creative and self-parodic as the screenplay by Willard Huyck and Gloria Katz should be. It never is, which is another mistake. The line between wit and silliness is not particularly fine, but a slightly Lighter touch might have helped this company across it. As it stands.

Although an adequate pianist and vocalist, I can think of a thousand others who have much more interesting quirks and talents. On the first track "It's In Every One of Us," it becomes apparent that' most of his compositions are woeful ballads to his mistress' eyebrow. He is a master of euphemistic metaphor, as evidenced by "The Hit Song of All Time." In this track, he attempts to portray a sexual encounter as he "... Struck a chord in your heart and you tuned up to me." This kind of concept was much better covered in Baez's "Love Song to a Stranger," or more on Pomeranz's level, the Supremes' "I Hear a Symphony." I don't mean to be overly degrading, but I'm tired of new releases that attempt to have universal appeal. I hear enough muzak in my dentist's office. This isn't to say that this album is completely worthless. "Greyhound Mary," for instance, has an interesting reggae influence. "High Together" has a soulful bass line. "Flying," for all its ridiculous lyrics ("Floating up in my balloon/ nothing around me but air/ and you"), has some interesting sound effects and a rather comical dog barking. But the only cut that achieves genuine musical interest is "Home to Alaska." It's a rather unusual change, as the public has probably had its fill of Californias, Alabamas, Georgias, ad infinitum. The song also boasts some exciting drumming by Dennis St. John and a good syncopated beat. Pomeranz could be viewed as the male counterpart to Manchester, if his work were a little more inspired. In his genre, Tim Moore and Art Garfunkel are much more creative and exciting. I know Clive Davis is anxious to get started with his new label, but he should examine the quality of his new artists a little more carefully than this. —Barbara Komansky SSSSS5SS: *x*x^x-xx*x-x-xvx-x* I sounding flute is supplied by Jimmy Hastings and-Mel Collins sparkles on saxophone.

I �- -4 Sunset and Other Beginnings (Neighborhood) Why I should like Melanie has always been somewhat of a mystery to me. She really can't sing her voice lacks the beauty and range of Joni Mitchell but is incapable of the intense emotional expressions that Janis Joplin used to have. Her style is nothing special, tending to be overly commercial at times (“Candles in the Rain" played a large part in the commercialization of Woodstock). Nevertheless, even though I'm not a fan of hers, her music holds some sort of me. "Stop the car if I have come this far Without learning how to make an unexpected Melanie, RECORDS I — turn Learn to play the changes to the beat of time Satisfaction never was a friend of mine Perceive it and say goodbye to it" Thus begins Melanie's newest album. These lyrics and the title seem to imply some radical stylistic change, but in actuality they are just wishful thinking on her part. The few changes that do occur are largely superficial, such as the increased use of the mandoliii for ornamentation and the frequent substitution of the saxophone for the recorder. When she does make an attempt at a different style, it fails miserably. Can you imagine Melanie doing “I've Got My Mojo Working" or a medley of "You Can't Hurry Love" and "Mama Said"? Don't bother; it's.worse than you think. Fortunately, those are the only bad songs on the just what you'd album. The other material is nice expect from her. She retains her acoustic backdrop, which is built, as usual, around the nylon guitar and piano. She has also written some good melodies, especially on "Sandman" and an uptempo "Perceive — Bob Dylan, Desire (Columbia) This is it. As a longtime advocate of Bob Dylan's songwriting, as well as a sometime defender of his musical talent, I have had to put up with a lot of abuse in recent years, but this hit. You were reight, he is terrible, and so is his new album Desire. I recently read an article in which someone close to him was quoted as saying that Bob had finally conquered his ego; that his current all-star tour and new-found candor with the press were definite proof of this. I laughed as I remembered seeing his face on the cover of People magazine, saying that he'd like to be thought of as "exclusive, rather than seclusive." Apparently Dylan decided that the only way to communicate with his typically low-brow audience was to sit down and write some very lame tunes with no confusing poetic images or rhyme schemes to worry about. Since he has had difficulty writing such songs in the past, this time he enlisted the help of someone named Jacques Levy, who co-authored seven of Desire's nine. I don't know what Levy's past credits are, but they must be better than Dylan's, for the two of them together write ten times more poorly than Bob at his worst. I'll assume that everyone has heard the epic single "Hurricane," the story of how Rubin Carter was framed for homicide. Unfortunately, "Hurricane" is representative of the rest of the album, and may be its most interesting cut, by virtue of its laughably trite lyrics. It's nice to see Bob and Jacques busy writing protest songs (Allen Ginsberg contributes a ream of liner notes to this effect) but it seems that they could have put a little more thought or time into picking rhymes for a story as tragic as. Carter's. Bette Midler, Songs for the New Depression (Atlantic) Bette Midler has secured an impressive assemblage of musicians for her latest outing. Songs for the New Depression. Ms. Midler has amassed a contingent of notables that include such diverse talents as Todd Rundgren, the Brecker Brothers Bob Dylan and Rick Derringer. It is incredulous to think Come on. The sad thing is that, as far as poetic content is concerned, the rest of Desire does not fare much‘better. The songs "Isis" and "Sara" both contain, vague traces of the old Dylan madness, and are probably the only worthwhile cuts on the record. Another interesting feature of Dylan's alleged new personality is the way he chose musicians for this Ip. Apparently not satisfied to cover up his often monotonous singing and harp with the help of competent musicians. Bob has recruited an entire troupe of amateurs who actually succeed in making him sound worse. The moaning violin which figures so prominently on "Hurricane" is also featured on just about every other song on Desire, and if you don't hate it yet, listen some more. Even sweet-voiced Emmylou Harris, probably the best-known musician on the album, sounds strained and sour when singing harmony with Dylan, and she also keeps it up for most of the Ip- , I am having trouble thinking of anything else to say about this record, but I would advise any of you who have not already caught the message not to but it unless of course you hate Dylan, in which case you deserve to. —Amanda B.

Zielinski from which to function in ranging from disco to lush ballads. "Strangers in the Night" receives a disco reworking that oddly enough almost clicks. Dianne Sumler and Luther Vandross (of "Fascination" fame) .generate some rousing background vocal support and Bette breezes and eases on down the number. Dylan's "Buckets of Rain," in which Bob and Bette croon together rather nicely, is one of the few isolated pockets of spontaneity on the album. It is now that snafus in the shape of poorly chosen tunes begin to rear their heads and take their inevitable toll. The overbearing and gaudy chorus and strings that comprise "Tragedy" are indicative of thi^, fault. Too often Bette's material oozes with a neo-nostalgia and an unappealing Carmen Miranda feel. Part of the blame for this can be attributed to producer Moogy Klingman. Klingman should have been more discerning in song selection and direction It is disturbing to note that Midler's eclecticism becomes an attempt at eluding any emotional involvement with the songs. The various song formats offer little more than a showcase for a tepid exercise in style and form. In this manner, Midler foregoes vocal vulnerability and risk in favor of a mechanical fascination with style. The results of this preoccupation with style causes quasi-melodic soap operas in which Midler is alienated and imprisoned from touching either the audience or the songs. Another problem is the seeming lack of coordination among producers, conductors and arrangers. There are simply too many chefs for this musical broth. Finally Klingman should have given the album a continuity and fluidity which the album sorely needs. In the last analysis, it is a sure bet Bette's Songs for the New Depression is at best middling Midler. —C.P. Farkas „ , And to the black folks he was just a crazy nigger No one doubted that he pulled the trigger . . . and sounding tired on others do crop up in some places, but they aren't as noticeable as they were on many of her previous albums. The use of other people's material comes across quite well on this album. This is particularly true with Lerner and Loew's ''Almost Like Being in moody tone Love," which is given such a that it is barely recognizable. On her own songs, Melanie is still the optimist who believes that someday love will rule the world. Here, however, she sings of it as a tenacious hope rather than a deluded that such a gifted lineup coupled with Midler's vocal attributes could be anything short of stupendous. Yet the incredulous has its day on Songs for the New Depression. Brilliance is erased by a collective mediocrity stamped with a pretty but hollow blandness. Any song interpreter, in a large part, stands or chosen for falls in regard to the performance. Bette has selected a number of genres Carole King, Thoroughbred (Ode) At last, Carole King has given us another album. only been a Technically, slightly it has longer-than-average wait, but Ms. King has returned with a collection of songs that far surpasses the quality of the semi-conceptual Fantasy and lazy feeling of Rhymes and Reasons. This album contains the kind of work that made Tapestry appealing to 13 million worldwide. Opening the album is “So Many Ways," an effort featuring only King and her keyboard. She is home after the first note; an occurrence made possible by heartfelt vocals and majestic piano playing. It is a beautiful expression of her contentment with her marriage and family. Instead of lethargic complacency, though, the feeling is emotional and genuine. This quality continues throughout the album, as evidenced in the next track, "Daughter of Light." Ms. King wants her daughter to have the opportunity to "... do anything you want to do," and you believe it. Collaborating with her former husband and writing partner Gerry Coffin on this and three other outstanding tracks, one of the most productive teams of the sixties is once again, in the seventies. functioning at their top form. These are all new numbers, nothing like the recycled "Will You Love Me Tomorrow." Helping out in the instrumental section are the old standbys, Danny Kortchmar, Russ Kunkel and Lee Sklar on guitar, drums and bass, respectively. James Taylor lends his six-string efforts on "Still Thinking of You," and joins the Nash/Crosby vocal '*■ team on "High Out of Time" and "I'd Like to Get to Know You Better." The interesting new additions to the entourage are the pervasive horns of Tom Scott and the vocal work of L.A.'s favorite son John David Souther. Although there is nothing here to match the raw power of "I Feel the Earth Move" or "Back to California," the album is mellow without having the effect of Sominex, which unfortunately so many releases exhibit these days. Lou Adler's production is impeccable, a welcomed change from his usual heavy hand. It's nice to see that one of the major creative forces in music can still find it in her to realize her potential, rather than to just lay back and reap the profits of former efforts. —Barbara Komansky Friday, 30 January 1976 .

Government by negation To the Editor: Dr. Ketter’s actions affecting student activities and the use of student funds have been variously rationalized. There is unfortunately some legal defense for his actions on the Attica demonstration, there was some cause for concern and a need to respond to Cavage’s complaints, and there may be problems of liability contingent upon the details of licensure of the Sub Board Pharmacy. However, the administration’s action with regard to the pharmacy most clearly illustrates a problem affecting all these situations: Robert Kctter’s apparent inability to govern other than by negation. If a service is non-political and clearly beneficial to the student community, is it not the University administration’s duty to support such a service? If progress toward this service is made through perserverance of concerned students, should not the administration make an effort to be aware of these efforts and to aid in them? Ajid if there are difficulties, legal or otherwise, are there no other means of control than prohibition and impoundment of funds? It appears that this administration is incapable of discussion with students, unaware that students are often rational human beings who might cooperate in finding solutions to slightly sticky problems which the administration seems to comprehend only in terms of fiscal on/off flow valves. The creation of services and the coordination of activities can and must occur at all levels. Improvement of services at this University should be initiated by the President’s office, but its initiation by students or faculty must also be encouraged and certainly not willfully destroyed. While the threatened review of The Spectrum's funding raises the spectre of repression, the administration’s recent actions to cripple the Sub-Board Pharmacy must make us also worry about Robert Ketter’s failure to interact constructively with the progressive members of this University. The article in Monday’s The Spectrum regarding University busing situation shows just how stupid University administrators can be .if they put their rhinds to it. The article stated that the Ridge Road and Grand Island Bus Companies were being paid the same price as Blue Bird was for the the University’s busing contract. The fact is that the University is getting gypped because for the same price, we are getting worse service. The school buses now in service are not nearly large enough to handle the demand. Although Blue Bird usually made a lot of people stand, they at least got everyone on, which isn’t the case now. Things go so bad, 1 witnessed a near “bus riot” a coiiple of nights ago. Many times scheduled buses do not show up. I — Paige Miller Improving education To the Editor. Well, at long last it appears'that a ray of light escaped from the mundane pages of your journal. I don’t intend the above statement to be facetious because I want to compliment you on your “For a Basic editorial of January 28th entitled Writing Course.” The Spectrum has not editorialized on academic issues to an overabundant degree and it is satisfying when one finally occurs. As for the Freshman course itself, I feel that you expressed the premises fairly well. Reading and writing skills among college students are very much in doubt and this trend is worsening. One can believe that the prime purpose of any higher education institution should be to teach a student how to analyze information and express himself. The Faculty Senate has — Educational Planning and Policy Committee is making an honest attempt to reach that goal. As a member of that committee, I, at first, had many course format. anxieties over the required Requirements of any kind have long been anathema to any past student governments. The support this proposal has received from Student Association Executives, the Academic Affairs Task Force, and now The Spectrum can only stand to demonstrate to various administrative and faculty figures that students are interested in their education and further, they are willing to actively support such reasonable measures designed to improve this education. David Shapiro, Director Academic Affairs Lesson in penmanship To the Editor: This letter is in response to a subtle form of oppression to which we are all subjected. (It’s form js subtle, but sure as hell, sinister!) I can best illustrate by asking you to get a pencil and piece of paper; then just write the word “IMPOSSIBILITY.” Now, aren’t you pissed off? No? Well, look at what you’ve just done. You wrote four a word and then “had” to perform five acts just so society “i’s” dotted and one “T” crossed can say the word is complete. I say, don’t accept this kind of fascist ‘crap’ handed down to you from the - L. Wolff Student, School of Medicine Michael can’t understand why either. Since the Amherst Campus opened, I can only recall a bus not showing once and later I learned it was due to a mechanical failure. But in the two weeks since this new semester began, 1 have been left waiting for a bus that never came four times. Lastly, many buses are just plain late. That is understandable in bad weather such as we have been having lately, but then how can you explain that the few Blue Birds still running seem to be on time? In short, the bus service here at Buffalo has gone from at best fair, to plain intolerable, and the people in charge of overseeing the buses have done nothing except hide in their ivory towers. I submit that these people have not been earning their salaries and that their salaries could be better used to alleviate the problems bus-riders face right now. bureaucratic establishment (Rocky and his boys). STOP DOTTING “i’s” and CROSSING “TV” More importantly, demand that you’ not be penalized in class for your convictions and rights. Before closing, I will just add that i’m considering the ethics of putting the little “v” on the straight line to form what the bureaucracy calls a “k.” You might argue that this alleged “k” would then be what “they” call an “I” (eye). Well, I say the hell with that! MAKE THE “I” squiggly. - Petroleum Vesuirous Nasby School of Management Marketplace values To the Editor. I am writing to express my concern regarding recent developments between Sub Board and the UUAB Film Committee. My immediate reaction to the news that the Film Committee’s Chairperson would be fired unless he agreed to cancel a group of “foreign, art films,” was one of dismay. It is unfortunate that in a University community, the values of the marketplace should, according to some, take precedence over one of the important roles of a university: to expose its students to arts programming which is innovative, culturally enriching and otherwise inaccessible. 1 have no quarrel with “popular” films; but to insist that the latter should comprise the whole bill of fare seems to lead to an unbalanced program. For that matter, the UUAB Film Committee does offer popular films. I further understand that the Film Committee is an income-producing one, despite its use of a selection criterion less commercial than “Have most of our students heard of these movies?” I hope that Sub Board will reconsider its present course of action, and that, if responsiveness to students is considered the central issue, this responsiveness will be judged somewhat less subjectively, and that the rights of the minority of students (who also pay student fees) will, be taken into account as well. Esther Swartz Office of Cultural Affairs Proposal on a proposal To the Editor: After much deliberation, the Student Corps for has decided it will only back the proposed basic writing course for all students if: 1) All current faculty members, except those showing that can publications they with communicate in basic English, be required to take the course over the summer; 2) Any prospective faculty member, regardless of the fact that he or she may be from this country or another nation that nominally speaks English, be required to take the course during their first semester here; 3) That all administrators and non-teaching professionals be required to complete the course by some date within the next year or so; 4) That all speeches and proposals in the Faculty Senate show some proficiency in the English language, especially those attacking alleged student illiteracy; and 5) That the Faculty Senate resolution mandating the course for students be rewritten so that it can be understood to some extent by people who are not members of that body but yet speak the English language. With these few additions, we believe this is a truly fine proposal which should be okayed by Dr. Ketter, as long as he can read it.

Reiss Staff Writer Spectrum Editor’s note: This is another in the continuing series of interviews which appear from time to time in The Spectrum sports pages The series deals with the condition of athletics at this school Today, The Spectrum talks to Robert Cohen, Speaker’s Bureau Chairman. Cohen’s experiences as an athlete and then as a critic of athletic funding. exclusively from SA, a situation which Cohen called “utterly ridiculous.” The blame for the problem, according to Cohen, lies with the state. Its inability to provide adequate funds for student activities is at the root of the problem. “I think it’s a good thing to have varisty athletics but I don’t think the SA should be solely responsible for supporting it. 1316 state has a responsibility to set up a education establishment,” Cohen decent physical explained. As a result, Buffalo coaches have annual monetary headaches during SA budget hearings. If the present system is allowed to continue, Cohen feels that the days of varsity athletics may be numbered. Cohen explained that the way the system is set up, student mandatory fees cannot be raised. This stagnant fee, Cohen claimed, coupled with rising costs, will give the students Jess for their money each year. ' - , Among the more controversial issues facing the Student Association (SA) is the amount of money that should be allotted to athletics, both intramural and varsity. The key question is whether athletics is a necessary function of a college campus. Robert Cohen, Director of the Student Association (SA) Speaker’s Bureau has seen the issue from both sides of the coin. As a freshman, Cohen was a runner for Buffalo’s varisty cross-country team. But last year, as a member of SA, Cohen turned against spending large sums of money for athletics. In an interview with The Spectrum, Cohen claimed that he was not at all against funding varsity athletics, but that the question at hand is one of priorities. A question of priorities “The way the question is framed, it’s a choice between community services like CAC [Community Action Corps] and NYPIRG [New York Public Interest Research Group] or athletics,” Cohen said. “If I were given the same choice today between athletics and socially valuable projects I would choose the projects because compared to them, athletics is sort of a luxury,” he added. Cohen explained that his experience in dealing with SA has helped him see the picture more clearly. “The more I learn about the SA and the more I learn about the money situation around here, the more I realize it’s a matter of how you frame the question. The question now is framed so that all these interests are pitted against each other. I still think that between athletics and social action, social action is a higher priority.” Students pay The money used to fund athletics at Buffalo comes Upping the fees A possible solution to the ever decreasing value of the mandatory student fee would be a mandatory athletic fee, to be used exclusively for athletics. Cohen felt that such a proposal would not be the best of solutions. “I don’t think it would be a good idea unless there was a popular demand for it,” Cohen stated. “If it were tacked on to the mandatory student fee students might just say no to the fee as a whole. I really hate to ask people to pay more money. Why should students have to pay for a decent athletic program?” Another aid to the ailing athletic program could lie in the Alumni Association. According to Universityj Robert Cohen regulations, Buffalo alumni may not donate scholarship money to entice top athletes to come to Buffalo. facilities there are you can hardly use because they are Cohen would support alumni scholarships, but favored constantly being used by varsity teams.” athletic recruiting only to a certain degree. One positive aspect Cohen found with the athletic situation here is the intramural program. “As a whole it’s Recruiting as a solution under the circumstances,” he said. “In terms of “It depends upon where the money comes from. If athletics, the state pays for it, sure. A lot of people I know came studen money- s more important than varsity from Bedford-Stuyvesant in New York and recruiting Cohen claimed that another factor affecting athletics at Buffalo is the attitude of President Robert Ketter. helped them get out of the city and into a nice school.” Cohen believes the athletic facilities at this University Cohen called the administration “a negative factor on are a disgrace. “They’re completely inadequate.

DETKOIT, MICHIGAN 4(216 �Wrestling Bulls trounced by Sooners of Oklahoma by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer But perhaps the most impressive facet is the Oklahoma wrestling about achievements of its grapplers. Boasting a team with six High School State an NCAA tournament Champions, champion, a Big Eight champion, and five Mid-Season All-Americans is enough to make any opponent think twice, especially since the Sooners were the runnersup in the NCAA tourney last year, and winners ■Q 19,74. What impresses most Sooner opponents is their youth. Oklahoma Coach Stan Abel said, “Our kids are so young that they don’t know how good they are. Give them another year and they will.” This was not the first time Abel faced the Bulls or Coach Michael. “Buffalo has a fine program. I remember when they beat the tar out of me when I coached at Cincinnati,” remarked Abel. The Sooners are one of the perennial powerhouses in college wrestling today. They have a winning tradition, their wrestlers know their skills and the team is always in excellent shape. Buffalo’s wrestling, Bulls were trounced 39-7 by the ppwerful Oklahoma Sooners before a packed house of about 1S00 last Monday night. Buffalo coach Ed Michael termed his team’s performance “middle of the road. I’ve seen them better, but I’ve seen them worse.” Accounting for the Bulls’ seven points were Co-captains Bruce Hadsell and Erik Drasgow. Displaying strength and skill, Sooner Drasgow devastated his counterpart, a three time Texas High School State Champion, 17-3. Meanwhile, Hadsell wrestled to a 6-6 draw, where he appeared to be the superior wrestler. Despite the matches’ final outcome, the Bulls exhibited tremendous skill against the sixth ranked Sooner*, with many matches generating a lot of excitement. It was the Bulls’ middleweights that provided most of that excitement. Besides DrasgowV and riadsell's matches, Bulls Gene Tundo, Kirk Anderson, and Bob Martineck lost tight decisions, 9-5, 7*6 and 9-2 respectively. Each wrestler at one point scored a near pin, but the Sooners proved too strong an j overall opponent. The Sooners were lightning quick and amazingly strong. Move for move, the Bulls’ technique equalled that of Oklahoma counterparts. The main reason for the 32 point margin lay in the Sooners’ The Bulls, too, have that excellent tradition of winning, and they are as well coached as Oklahoma. So, why is the thought of Buffalo defeating the Sooners so absurd? The reason is that big schools like Oklahoma attract the top high school athletes, with colleges like Buffalo having to scrap for lesser talent. But the reasoning does not end there. Coaches Michael and Abel lay the blame on conditioning. FREE SUPPER & Oklahoma's Shawn Caret (bottom) tangles with Buffalo's Tony Olivari in Monday's wrestling contest at Clark. Caret, the current NCAA champion at 116 pounds easily handled Oliver! 12-3, and set the trend for the Sooners' 39-7 triumph overall. an uneven distribution of scholarships and aid. Whereas the Sooners have an overabundance of aid at their disposal to attract athletes, Buffalo has none. Michael pointed oat, “Without us having aid, Oklahoma schedules a match thinking we’re a team to beat up on.” With all things considered, Abel was as impressed with Buffalo as the Bulls were with Oklahoma. He remarked, “They are a fine team and well coached. Without aid, for what they offer, they have one heck of a team. Their five middleweights are real tough.” Because of the strong wrestling program he* has produced, Michael commented on the possibility of his Bulls competing against schools, the calibre of the Oklahoma Sooner* in the near future. *Td like to think we can, but that will be contingent upon grants and aid. Right now, I’m trying to work something out for next year.” Nevertheless, this year’s Bulls have continued to improve with every match. They are 100 percent better than the team that started back in mid-November. Abel states his definition of success as, “taking the kids you’ve got and doing the best you can with them." By Abel’s own admission, Michael is quite a successful coach and his wrestling Bulls are a successful team.

The SpECTI\UM \ State University of New York at Buffato Wednesday, 28 January 1976 Vol. 26, No. 49 Faculty Senate Mandatory writing course is proposed ... by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor Editor’s note: The following is the first in two articles on recent Faculty Senate committee reports Part / deals with the Educational Planning and Policy Committee’s proposal for a basic writing course for freshmen.. The Faculty Senate’s Educational Planning and Policy Committee has proposed a mandatory basic writing course far incoming freshmen. The proposal resulted for “widespread dissatisfaction among faculty with the level of reading/writing/conceptualizing skills” among undergraduate students at this University. In its report to the Senate, the committee said this dissatisfaction not only became very evident in its deliberations, but has been highlighted in reports from the College Entrance Examination Board and the American College Testing Programs. Charged by the Senate with considering “the first two years of the undergraduate program and to recommend changes,” the seven faculty members and one student agreed that the implementation of a required Basic Writing Course for freshmen is “now both mandatory and timely.” - _ Specialization Traditionally, courses of this type were optional, offered through the English Department under the titles of “Freshmen English” or “English Composition.” The committee's proposal calls-#ar a Basic Writing Course to be given by University departments which emphasize the specialized writing skills needed in each area of study. If the committee’s proposal is adopted, the requirement will take effect next September, and the Basic Course will be listed with each department’s offerings. The report says, however, that the course will be considered a general undergraduate, not a departmental, requirement. Thus, if a student changes majors, he will not have to take the Basic Writing Course again. Committee members felt that, along with teaching students the basic writing skills needed for college level work, the specialization of the courese will “be an acknowledgement-one that we consider to be of that writing and conceptual skills are a fundamental importance responsibility of the entire University,” and not solely the responsibility of the English Department. — Demanding “To read, think, and express oneself competently are not specialized achievements. They are essential to all good University workand ought to be encouraged equally by all departments,” the committee report said. The committee only sees the need for one or two sections in each department, and for every section to be graded pass/fail to eliminate the pressure of grades. “An atmosphere in which criticism is easily absorbed and put to constructive use” would be created, the committee feels. With approximately 2500 entering students, it would be necessary to offer 50 sections of the Basic Writing Course each semester. A Basic Course Steering Committee would be appointed, independent of the Division of Undergraduate Education Curriculum Committee, to review the requirements for each section. Problems Preferably, the committee feels, it should be taught by full faculty members,, and not “be relegated to the most exploitable and least experienced members of a department, the teaching assistants.” “A perfectly respectable course might not qualify as a Basic Course due to overspecialization of subject matter, grading procedure by examinations rather than papers, or... objectives other than the development of writing skills,” the report said. Bi-weekly meetings of Basic Course instructors would be held, where special problems and teaching methods could be discussed; of Tfce committee admitted that “there may be problems feels confident that “the but organization” admteietaatien and advantages far outweigh the difficulties.” Representatives told the Senate that, as faculty members, they would be “remiss in [their] duties were [they} to ignore a situation that loudly calls for remedial action.” UUAB committee head Fox fired for not cancelling films by Randi Schnur & Mike McGuire Two of eight filing sponsored by the University Union Activities Board (UUAB), whose place on the spring film schedule is being contested by Sub Board, were voted back onto the list at Sub Board’s Board monthly meeting last Thursday night. However, Sub Board’s Board of Directors voted to fire Fine Arts Film Committee Chairperson Dennis Fox if he refused to cancel showings of the other six films by tomorrow. The original January 7 memorandum, in which Sub Board Executive Director Thomas Van Nortwick informed UUAB of the eight “exceptions” to the approved film schedule, directed that replacements be found “unless a firm commitment has been/ made with regard to these films.” Last week’s decision allowed the Film Committee no such leeway. The Committee is thus being asked to cancel contracts which have already been made with several distributors. The two reinstated films are Electra-Glide in Blue, which wiH be shown tomorrow and Friday, and Swept A way, which is scheduled for April 17 and 18 in the Norton Conference Theater. The action against Fox was taken soon after he told the Board of Directors that he could only cancel fijm showings if the rest of his committee concurred, and that the committee had no plans to do so. Fox was then asked if he was ready to resign, and he said he was not. He added that he was ready to be fired, and later in the meeting. Student Association President Michele Smith, an acting member of the Board, proposed a vote on the firing, which was passed by the Board. Defying authorities Smith and Board member Arthur Lalonde accused Fox of “defiance” of Sub Board in supporting his firing. Only two Board members, Bruce Campbell of the Student Association and Graduate Student Hurowitz of the Lauri Association, voted against firing Fox. Fox was told he would be retained by the Board only if he agreed to cancel the other six films. The films still under dispute are Zazie dam le Metro, The Little Theater of Jean Renoir, Les Violins du Bal, Black Moon, Tales of the Taira Clan, and Every Man for Himself and God Against All. Additional reactions to the Fox firing came from SA Speakers Bureau Chairperson Robby Cohen. Sub Board is contributing to “an atmosphere where innovative programming is stifled and disdained,” said Cohen, adding that the Board’s action was an “implicit attack on Speakers .Bureau.” Cohen feels that Speakers Bureau is endangered by the move because the organization is attempting to carry out the same sort of innovative and varied programming as the Film Committee. , A question of balance Cohen said he will take his complaints to the Speakers Bureau Committee and seek support for a resolution condemning the “bland, inoffensive entertainment” for which, he feels, “balance in programming” is simply another name. “Why take the risk of doing programming that may not draw tremendous crowds when you can bring old stand-bys. . that are guaranteed to pack ‘em in? Cohen’s resolution asks sarcastically. , ... - ’ . Top: ‘Swept Away Above: ‘Electro Glide in Blue’ Both Fox and UUAB Division Director David Benders emphasize that the main issue here is UUAB’s autonomy and status as “a legal entity of Sub Board” whose “decisions are definitive,” according to Benders. UUAB is “not just an extension of Sub Board,” Fox insists, adding that “UUAB has had a continuity and a democratic structure longer than Sub Board has been in existence.” Describing UUAB’s constitution, which was drawn up in 1968 to insure the maximum possible amount of student participation in its various committees, Benders asked, “How could they (Sub Board) say we don’t represent the students? We are the students!” When asked by Sub Board members last Thursday night whether he intended to oversee Fox’s compliance with their conditions, Benders said, he “just told them I didn’t think there would be anything to oversee,” since he believes it is “very unlikely” that the Film Committee will consent to any schedule changes. “We have a commitment to do things that are diversified,” Benders explained in defense of Fox’s position. Sub Board Chairman James Smalley could not be reached for comment Monday, while Student Association Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde, who has spearheaded the recent actions against the Film Committee, declined comment until after Smalley’s opinions are heard. �A new vice president for academic affairs F.

Wed. at 7 pm 205 Norton Bob Armand - - (CPS) The Athletes who star on the football field Saturday afternnon do not always shine as brightly in the classroom Monday morning- The absence of academic prowess in big-time athletes has begun to worry officials at several universities and has recently prompted a number of studies of athletes’ graduation and academic reocrds. It is no secret that many schools reduce their minimum academic admissions requirements for promising athletes. Since 1973, a recruit for a Big Ten conference school need only have a 2.0 high schobl GPA. And an athletic department official at the University of Minnesota admitted that the University was willing to take marginal Students in an effort to get the best athletes available Recently the State Board of Higher Education of Oregon gave the Chancellor the power to change admissions requirements for Oregon's state universities. The reason for this ruling was that some university presidents feared that Oregon’s higher admissions standards have “discriminated” against athletes who possibly wanted to attend college in Oregon. The GPA requirements for out-of-state transfers and entering freshmen will probably be lowered to the level of in-state requiremenls from a 2.5 to a 2.0 for freshmen and from a 2.75 to a 2.5 for transfers. The problem with lowering admissions requirements to bolster the athletic department is that universities often cannot keep their sports heroes from dropping or flunking out. This low graduation rate for athletes worried the director of athletics at Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia so much that he initiated a study to find out where all his athletes were going. The study was started. Joseph McMullen explained, because he was concerned about why so main underclass rather than upperclass athletes were playing for Marshall - teams. “Recruiting the athletes shouldn’t only be looking at how fast he can run or how high he can jump, but more importantly at how the athlete can compete in an academic environment,” McMullen said, First Meeting Any questions contact: Saturday’s heroes tarnish on Monday 832-7954 831-2075 & “The school should get competence from the athlete both in academics and athletics.” But because college athletes often spend more time at practice sessions than hitting the books, many of them require special tutoring help. Only eight percent of the Big Ten conference football players were nominated for the 23rd annua) Big Ten All-Academic team. So tutoring programs, accredited by the NCAA, have been instituted at all of the Big Ten schools.

Appeals of the decision were turned down othe grounds the case was moot. The Trustees had new, recently implemented permanent procedures governing the use of the fees. In August, Levitt revealed that substantial funds used by the student government at the SUNY College at New Paltz were missing or unaccounted for.

Drive The ‘‘Mona Amendment” goes into effect on February 2nd. But Gidzinski said that “out of practicality, knowing that relocation could be disruptive to students, I would hesitate to enforce the provisions of the amendment until the end of the semester.’^ Stringer v. Gould, Levitt released his statement on the student fees audit recommending “improved supervision” of fee expenditures, and a system of “acounting and administrative improved controls.” Levitt also said the choice between voluntary or mandatory fees, or a combination, was a decision only the SUNY Trustees could make. The audit also noted that the legislative body of students responsible for spending the fees was elected by a relatively small percentage of the students. But in the cover letter to newly SUNY Chancellor appointed Ernest Boyer, Levitt added: “On most campuses we found the expenditures were proper and the accounting was complete. Here is ample evidence that student organiztions are capable of responsible self-management.” Borenstein noted that in the days that followed, there was near editorial support unanimous throughout the state for tighter control of student fees. In the midst of continuous State on the disruptions University at Buffalo campus in spring of 1970, which included a two week visit by one-third of the Buffalo Police Department, the Erie County District Attorney asked the regular March Grand Jury to probe the causes of the upheavel. When even more violent clashes demonstrations and of followed ’ the invasion Cambodia and the killing at Kent and Jackson State, the jury asked to have its term extended. While the jury was in recess in Heroes.. July, a Buffalo City Councilman filed a resolution in the Common Council calling on the District Attorney to “determine whether the student disorder which swept the campus earlier this year was supported by student activity fees. Meanwhile, the Erie County District Attorney announced an in depth investigation of student fees at the State University at Buffalo. He broadened the probe when subpeonas were issued for student activity fee records in June. October, 1970, the In elected University’s newly Graduate Student Association treasurer released records that indicated his predecessor misappropriated $15,000 in funds After authorization. without hearing from the new treasurer twice, the Grand Jury indicted the former treasurer on 14 counts of larceny (the Grand Jury’s only indictment). The Grand Jury heard testimony from 57 people in all, and issued a long statement which recommended the Trustees establish strict guidelines for use of the fees, greater administrative scrutiny, regular state audits, and speakers from campus be banned unless they have the permission of the college administration, among others. Lastly, the Jury said “the use of student fees for travel for to purposes personal demonstrations that aim to disrupt our judicial system or society is improper and should cease.” The recommendations were immediately disputed by the Student Association. ' —continued from page 2— obtain a tutor through the athletic department and the $5 an hour bill is footed by the school. At Purdue University, 50 to SO percent of the eligible athletes use the tutoring system sometime during their careers and football palyers are the biggest customers. In spite of the formal tutoring systems set up at Big Ten schools, many conference athletes are still incapable of making it all the way to graduation day. At the University of Minnesota, almost half of the athletes queried in a recent study never got a degree. This in spite of the fact that more than two-thirds of the athletes are receiving significant financial aid and all Big Ten athletes must be enrolled in school on a continuous basis. The data at the University of Minnesota indicates that non-revenue sports have a slightly better graduation rate than the more prestigious revenue-producing sports like football and basketball. Minnesota’s academic counselor for athletes admitted that when a prospective player in a revenue sport comes to the University, the sport is probably his main reason for being there. In non-revenue sports, athletes are more likely to be attending the University with academic priorities, he said. Wednesday, 28 January 1976 . The Spectrum .

(CPS) Chinese eduoitors have discovered a problem that haunts their U.S. counterparts as well they are horrified that “people will be leaving the University without being able to read a bo<5k.” - - But where Americans have resppnded with indignation, Chinese educators asking a return to hardheaded curriculum have been criticized for pushing a “bourgeois line” while leading the country down the “revisionist road.” The result has been a shootout between tradition-minded educators and radicals seeking to preserve the changes made in Chinese education during the Cultural Revolution. The revolutionary education system that grew out of upheavals of the sixties emphasizes political activism over academic skills and requires tarm or factory work experience for admission to the universities. Applicants to Chinese universities are now required to serve two years in the armed forces, fields or factories before enrollment. In addition, the number of examinations.given to students have been trimmed and degree requirements slashed so that two or three years of study will lead to a degree. Students also spend some of their school time in “open door schooling” or learning from workers in industry and communes. more Reports from the mainland indicate that no one is expelled for not meeting standards and no one repeats a year. University education is conducted under the maxim that "no class brothers will be left behind.” Education Minister Chou Jung-Hsin loured Chinese campuses earlier, making speeches implying that these practices have resulted in a decline in China’s quality of education. He was joined by the head of one university who allegedly sent a letter lo Mao calling for a change in the education system to half slipping traditional educational standards. China-watchers claim the issue is more complicated than similar fears American educators have had about declining academic standards. They say one of China’s historic problems has been that the intellectuals have been too far removed from the mass of people and their problems. Academic retrenchments during the Cultural Revolution were made to smash that elitism. And reports in so far say that students pushing for the continuation ol China s post-revolutionary education system have the edge. In answer to Chou and other critics of the education system, students have lined university walls with posters denouncing the education minister and conducted midnight meetings to solidify opposition. They’ve been joined by the Party journal, the Red Flag, which has denounced Chou for subverting the revolutionary line. �‘Play It Again, Sam’ "v ' • ; - — - » • hottest bargain used record store is here Buffalo’s ...

Although Play it Again, Sam has not suffered many losses due to album thefts, the store was broken into over the Christmas holiday, and the entire stereo system was stolen. The burglars did not steal any records. Depending on the initial success of Play it Again, Sam, the owners hope to open another, similar store in the Buffalo area, possibly in the vicinity of Buffalo State College, and perhaps others in Rochester and Syracuse. The store’s hours are Monday to Saturday, 10 ami. to 6 p.m., but album purchasing will only take {dace on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

OPEN 24 HOURS - J JJ 3234 MAIN STREET A V Charges of “administration interference” with the Legal Aid Clinic's planned off-campus housing survey have been made by students involved in the project. The Clinic hopes to create a substitute for the off-campus housing office in Goodyear Hall. Legal Aid staff member Dave Richmand said the goal of the study is to establish a “computer bank” of information on as many houses in the University area as possible, from which a prospective student tenant may obtain facts on the landlord, condition, location and rent. However, the administration will not release the telephone numbers and addresses of present student tenants from the Office of Admissions and Records so that Clinic workers may conduct interviews. Although these numbers are not listed in this year’s University directory, administrative officials will make them accessible for official business only. Policy decision One student working on the study charged that since many local landlords are also state legislators, the administration is trying to prevent the Clinic from compiling information on them. “This is a policy decision and the University is giving in to pressure from local landlords,” agreed a Student Association spokesperson. Richmond hopes to cover as many as 5,000 houses in the “student ghetto.” When the project is completed, students looking for suitable housing <-ould fill out a form in the Legal Aid office Dave Richmond what describing what kind of house they want distance from campus, how large, what rent range. They would receive in exchange a computer listing with about 15 possible houses fitting those preferences, Richmand said. Richmand said the new service would hopefully work better for students than the present off-campus housing office, which he described as an “apathetic institution” run by the administration. — Attention vibro lovers They will open their doors to us at 7:30 p.m. Vibro-Marking, an identification system which could save your ski equipment from theft, has come to SONY Buffalo.

Labor union activity later found to be illegal under the National Labor Relations Act could be deemed sabotage.

Wednesday, 28 January 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �1 Guest Opinion Lashing out blindly by the Revolutionary Student Brigade Sub Board's Board of Directors stooped to cheap, bullying tactics last week .when it voted to fire UUAB Fine Arts Film Committee Chairperson Dennis Fox should he refuse to cancel showings of the Six movies that remain on the big Board's blacklist. In its determination to bring so-called "popular films" to the University, the Board apparently has not recognized that the very students it so magnanimously seeks to please have made the reinstatement of all eight films one of the most "popular" issues on campus this year. Certainly, after the public outcry condemning its actions, the Board can only look more foolish by lashing out at the Film Committee head. The large number of students who wrote letters to protest about this matter objected precisely to the Board's interference in the internal policy of a duly-chosen committee. They also pointed out the lack of knowledge about film on the part of the eight directors who used scanty information to single out eight foreign films they believed "objectionable." While the directors did evenutally bring back Electra-Glide in Blue and Swept Away, their stubborn insistence on banning six equally important films and firing Dennis Fox if he doesn't comply is an insult to the students Sub Board purports to serve. At this point, before the Board digs itself even deeper into a hole, it would be sensible for the Direcotrs to withdraw and leave this year's film schedule and Film Committee alone. Perhaps their pride might be hurt but at least their credibility will remain intact. For a basic writing course The Faculty Senate's Educational Planning and Policy Committee should be commended for its well thought-out proposal to strengthen the writing skills of incoming freshman. As educators join the media in recognizing the poorly-developed writing habits of presumably well-educated people, it becomes imperative that writing ability once again be stressed at all levels of learning. While at this University, "English Composition" has long ceased to be a required course for freshmen, the limited number of writing sections offered through the English Department cannot accommodate the growing need for this type of instruction. If, as the Faculty Senate Committee suggests, each department gives a Basic Writing Course for freshmen that emphasizes the particular writing skills needed in that area of specialization, the burden of teaching students how to write would be taken out of the hands of the English Department and spread around the entire University where it belongs. Additionally, grading these courses pass/fail only will allow students to learn for the sake of learning without the pressure that often discourages them from taking these necessary subjects. "An atmosphere in which criticism is easily absorbed and put to contructive use" would be created, the committee says The thought of reinstating any University-wide requirements may sound distasteful to a great number of students. However, given that too many students at the college level cannot construct a proper English sentence, and given that this problem must be corrected before a person leaves school, it follows that a Basic Writing Course could not hurt anyone who is required to take it. Fortunately, the Faculty Senate is attempting to make it as appetizing as possible. Vol. 26. No. Permanently out 49 To the Editor.

Chou En Lai, Premier of the People’s Republic of China and Vice Chairman of the Chinese Communist Party, died in Peking at the age of 78. Who was Chou En Lai? And why should we, students here in the U.S., be concerned over his death? He was, as the press has been saying, a great diplomat, and a man who had tremendous influence on events in China and in the world. But after all, there have been many great diplomats and many people who have influenced world events. What set Chou En Lai apart from other world “leaders” was that Chou, from the time of his youth up until his death, was a revolutionary. He was a person who devoted his entire life not only to the emancipation of the Chinese people but to the cause of the working class and oppressed people around the world. Chou was born in 1898, the son of government officials. He grew up during a time of tremendous struggle by the Chinese people. China, a giant country with tremendous resources, had been carved up by foreign imperialists including the British, French and the U.S., each of whom controlled different economic interests in the country. The masses of Chinese people, workers and peasants, lived in miserable conditions under feudal lords who were supported by foreign and Chinese capitalists, like thousands of young people and students at the time, Chou participated in and helped lead the great rebellions, strikes and demonstrations against these conditions. And like many people in China and around the world who were inspired by the Russian revolution of 1917,Chou came to the conclusion that the final goal of the revolution in China had to be socialism, the rule of the working people. Like Mao Tse Tung and many others who took part in the revolutionary movement in China, Chou started to study the works of Marx and Lenin and in 1921 helped form the Communist Parly of China to lead the struggle for revolution and socialism. For close to 40 years the Communist Party, with Mao Tse Tung at its head, led the Chinese people through many struggles until finally in 1949 they succeeded in defeating Chiang Kai Shek who was a puppet of foreign, mainly U.S., imperialists. In 1927, when Chiang seized control of the government and began a massacre of thousands of communists, Chou barely escaped with his life. He was on the Long March in 1934 when the Red Army marched 8000 miles through enemy lines to be able to fight the Japanese invaders in the north of China. Through these and other hardships Chou stood firm and played a key role in leading the movement. And after 1949 he worked without stop to make China a socialist country and to encourage revolutionary struggles in other parts of the world. Unlike our “leaders,” Ford, Rockefeller, Kennedy, etc., who either are capitalists or represent the interests of big business, Chou, Mao and the other communist leaders in China have positions of power only because over many years of struggle, they won the support of the Chinese people. Because they saw that the Communist Party was fighting for the needs and-desires of the masses of people, millions of Chinese workers, peasants and intellectuals joined with the party and many of them laid dowp their lives fighting for the goals the party put forward. This was because the goals of the party, for independence and an end to the system of exploitation, were the same as the goals of the vast majority of the people. Chou En Lai helped lead the fight to bring the working class to power. He also helped lead the fight after the revolution to make sure the working class kept power and to prevent a new class of rulers from springing up. The most famous and the most important example of this was the Great Cultural Revolution from 1966-69. This was a tremendous mass movement of Chinese workers, peasants and students that was led by Mao Tse Tung, Chou En Lai and other members of the Communist Party. Its aim was to remove from power people in the Communist Party and outside it who were using their positions for their own personal advantage and not for the benefit of the people. The movement was aimed at all institutions, culture, and anything else that was seen as promoting capitalist ways and ideas. These changes are still going on in China as the people struggle to do away with all the things left over from capitalism that still remain. Our rulers like to speculate on what will happen now that many of the original leaders of the Chinese revolution are dead or very old. They make it seem inevitable that a new class of oppressors will take power or have already done so. This ignores one basic fact. The Chinese revolution was not made by a small group of people. It was made by millions of Chinese based on their desire to wipe out the conditions they lived under and their willingness to fight for it. Chou and Mao and the other communists were great. leaders because they were able to sum up and focus that desire and give it direction. But even when they are gone, the basic force behind the revolution, the masses of Chinese people, still exists and today there are millions of people who grew up and lived under socialism and will fight to keep it. Chou En Lai stands as an example to the people of China who will carry out that fight and an example to us here in the U.S. where we still have to make revolution. He was a great man not because he had tremendous skill or knowledge, although it was true he had both, but because he used that skill and knowledge in the service of the masses of people, devoting his entire life to the cause of revolution. Because of this, he won the respect and admiration of people around the world. His death is a great loss and will be mourned and remembered everywhere by people who are fighting against oppression and to make revolution.

A few short years ago, Eldridge Cleaver being sought by American law enforcement agencies? for certain crimes he alledgedly committed as a member of the Black Panthers and as an American revolutionary. He applied for and received political assylum in Algeria. Before he fled the U.S., he was believed to be violently anti-white, anti-American and anti-semitic. This past year he returned to the U.S. and was promptly placed in prison for those crimes he is alledged to have committed. From his public statements, it appears as though his political perspective has radically changed. An example of this change was printed in an article Cleaver wrote on the editorial page of the Buffalo Evening News on January 14, 1976, entitled “U.N.: A View From the v Cell.” The chock of this article comes from the opening paragraph, when Cleaver says, “Two aspects of the recent United Nations resolution labelling Zionism as racist shocked and surprised me. Of all the people in the world, the Jews have not only suffered particularly from rascist persecution, they have done more than any other people in history to expose and condemn racism.” He goes on to state: “Generations of Jewish social scientists and scholars have labored long and hard in every field *of knowledge to lay bare and refute all claims of racial inferiority and superiority. To condemn the Jewish survival doctrine of Zionism as racism is a travesty upon the truth.” Cleaver had lived in Algeria, an Arab country, for a few years. The amount of time he spent there was surely enough for him to develop certain opinions of the Arab world, or at the very least, of Algeria. He states his experiences in the next section \ of the article. “Secondly, I am surprised that the Arabs would choose to establish a precedent condemning racism) because it can so easily be turned against them. Having lived for several years among the Arabs, I know them to be among the most racist people on earth. This is particularly true of their attitude towards black people. No one knows this better than black Africans living along the edge of the Sahara. “Once while we were travelling through Bamoko, Mali, a cab driver flew into a rage when we asked him to take us to the Algerian Embassy. When he learned that we actually lived in Algeria, he concluded that we were crazy. ‘Man,’ he said irritably, ‘don’t you know that the Arabs still have black slaves?’ “He was right, although I didn’t find out till later. Many Arab families that can afford it, keep one or t\yo black slaves to do their menial labor. Sometimes they own an entire family. 1 have seen such slaves with my own eyes. “I have the deepest sympathy for the Palestinian people in their search for justice, but I see no net gain for freedom and human dignity in the world if power blocs, because of their ability to underwrite sagging economies for a season, are able to ram through the U.N. resolutions repugnent to human reason and historical fact.” It appears as though what Eldridge Cleaver discovered during his short stay in Algeria, many persecuted minorities in the Middle East have known for centuries. Guest Opinion ; * Samuel M. Prince Helping Planned Parenthood private citizens to own hand guns whose design is primarily for killing people and does kill by Rod Saunders * — Wesley Foundation Director One of the most pressing issues before this country today is the issue of “Criminal Justice!” Many short-sighted and simplistic answers are proposed by legislators, police, judges, and average citizens. Rarely does one see a proposal from a studied source. There have been two major studies in the United States of the Criminal Justice problem. The first, during the Johnson Administration, was labeled “Liberal” in its proposals. But the involvement in Vietnam kept it from being considered. Nixon ran on a platform of “law and order” (though apparently not for himself and his cronies), and instituted a “National Advisory Committee on Crinunal Justice: Goals and Priorities.” This commission was stacked with so-called conservatives, including its chairperson, a Republican ex-governor, t'hey started all over, looked at the facts, and returned with even more “radical” and “liberal” proposal?) because they were convinced it was the only s?he, correct and logical solution. Nixon naturally his own chosen commission. \ There is now a bill before the Senate, SI, which will go in the opposite directipn on almost every issue the two studies proposed. The effect of this bill; if passed, would be to return us to the “Middle Ages” of criminal justice, It would build into the federal criminal code the attitudes of repression and secrecy of the Nixon, et. al. administration. It would limit the press, peaceful protest and demonstrations, and severely punish criminal defendants and protestors. You should become educated on this bill. Write your senator (probably only Javits will listen). L. Harold DeWolf, professor, retired Dean of Wesley Theological Seminary, has spent the last few years of his retirement researching the criminal justice issue in the U.S. and around the world. He has just published Crime and Justice in America (Harper and Row Publishers). The following are some of the proposals from lectures given at the Syracuse Area Pastors School, Oct. 1975. The proposals need to be considered in a total context, not pulled out and hacked at individually. 1. Decent housing for all we have the misdirecting them (for military mostly). especially the 2.

For instance, I hope “they” prove Bigfoot and the abominable snowman and all the rest really Jo exist. And after reading Nicholas Witchell’s book The Loch Ness Story. I am thoroughly convinced that “Nessie" is real after all which, of course, merely confirms something / haVe believed all along. The only real problem tlfat continually plagues people who have seen the creature (or, more probably creatures) is that their reliability as witnesses would be accepted in any court of law, but when their testimonies confront the hallowed ideas of a scientific community, these same witnesses are considered less reliable than children. The first part of The Loch Ness Story covers the history of the creature and the attendant sightings thoroughly. The first recorded sighting is traditionady attributed to a sixth century holy man. Saint Coluipbia and although the incident is legendary, at least it shows that “Nessie" has quite a long history. The history of sightings is too long to cover here, but the amazing thing about all of them is the way they seem to agree with one another- Although there are minor differences in detail (color, gross tonnage, and so on), ad the viewers have apparently Our Weekly Header agreed on major identifying points (long neck, visable humps, and especially the size and shape of The head). It should also be noted that the variety of persons who have seen the creature are as remarkable as the beast itself: priests, soldiers, tourists, visiting the whole spectrum of society. royally USED RECORD OUTLET The second part of the book deals with the history of the search for the Lock Ness beat(s). Although the book went to print prior to the release of the latest photographs, Witched was able to incorporate some of the details of the latest search in The Loch Ness Story. As newer and more accurate sightings are recorded and as special equipment is developed for exploring the murky lake, scientists can, according to the author, look forward to the solution of this age-old puzzle in the near future. The idea of the unknown has scared many and attracted more. As light is cast deeper into the corners of this particular mystery, all who are interestecLwi|l need a guidebook to keep up with its many aspects. The Loch Ness Story by Nicholas Witched, is that book. WELCOME HO — , A. Ear!Hershberger A. Earl Hershberger is a graduate student in Social Foundations and an instructor in Tolstoy College.

I I WE REGRET: SHAWN that effective today, Jan. 28, Dennis Fox has been dismissed as Chairman of the UUAB Fine Arts .Film Committe for his refusal to acquiesce to the dictate of Sub-Board I in the replacement of eight films. To reiterate: pmups Roscny Hill WICK CENTER Recently a two-page missive, authored by S.A., was delivered to the offices of Sub-Board. Though 'I Innocently entitled “An S.A Proposal for Sub-Board I" it bore Httle resemblance to anything quite as reasonable as a proposal. Rather, it was an ultimatum, threatening that if the Board did not adopt-a perspective on U.U.A.B. that was more in own, that they would overturn some if conformance vHth their were seen their way. things until personnel the S.A. further decided that a survey be prepared and distributed which would provide a systematic picture of student tastes. For, In their words, "U.O.A.B..'s sources are a mystery to us.” Three years ago. in cooperation with the University’s Statistics Center, such a survey was implemented. The results confirmed the structure and diversity of U.U.A.B., for two simple reasons. First, the sampling went University-wide and reflected the highly diversified tastes one would expect from a group composed of such a variety of background, age groups, race, gnd politics. (The diversity of this University’s population Came as a shock to "elected” officials who spent all of their time in Norton Hall and were usually elected by less than 30 percent of the student population). Secondly, the survey simply affirmed U.U.A.B.’s feedback which is scarcely a mystery and certainly as mechanism effective a poll of the student body as anything else. Concerts end movies require tickets. Some sell out, some don’t. Experienr.e with this information gives one a very good sense of what tfie student tastes are and this is enforced by the fact that must be accepted if an elite "cultural” minority hopes to gratify itself by showing films that appeal only to it and no one else. Such a policy would scarcely last financially for more than Five or six weeks. The film committee currently under attack, U.U.A.B. films, is beginning its second semester ahead of its income projections. It is quite obvious these people know what they •re doing. Why does S.A. t disagree? S.A. itself is an elite group. They wish to feature their own tastes and those of their peers. It is their vision that they want others to share, not that of a majority of students. The previously mentioned letter from S.A. sent shock waves through Sub-Board I. Two memos were sent by T. H. Van Nortwick on behalf of Sub-Board I. (S.A. to a major extent controls Sub-Board. Would that it were •‘an entity unto itself’ and free from “the control of elected Student representatives!” Then it might better be able to serve a University instead of the whimsical, whinings of purblind despots.) The result was a run of memos denouncing U.U.A.B. its unresponsive and itemizing eight films which were to be removed from their listings.

It is constitutionally open to anyone in the University. It is visible, it is responsive. It responds best to students interested in arts management who come in as volunteers and do small jobs and learn. Through this mechanism chairpersons are established and programs are designed. It is democratic. Under the present system if a minority is ignored it may approach the organization for redress, sans cracked heads. Most importantly, U.U.A.B. is an opportunity for an individual student to express his- or herself in a way that is both self-satisfying and in the service of a University Community. In U.U.A.B. one (earns there is a University Community. It seems that S.A.'s goal is to create a campus culture that is "predominately popular.” I read that as CONFORMIST. They want to provide films and music the way McDonald's provide burgers; familiar, reliable, and without surprises. S.A. believes that culture should be secondary to the majority of student interests- This belies a tragic ignorance, for the interests of the majority of students s an cultural. Each student has come to the University to learn little is learned from the familiar. In their action S.A. is colluding with an entire industry "out there” that exists to exploit the "college market,” driving an endless fix of shit into student brains; one “Heckle and Jeckle Film Festival” after another, one half-assed double-priced rock band after another. It's an industry! It's real! it’s BIG MONEY! And U.U.A.B. is one of the few free agants in the country that can pick somebody no one ever heard of and provide you with the most unexpectedly exciting night you'll ever have at a concert. There dance recital, poetry reading or movie. is nothing elitist about a program which provides both the familiar and the unexpected, the common and the rare, the popular and the unknown. But there is something fascistic about a program that doesn't It's a simple matter of alternatives. There is nothing privileged about an audience that attends a program that isn’t well known. But there's something sad about one that can't The language of the S.A. proposal is not vague and my reactions are not overdrawn. They specifically state "predominately popular,” and they've axed a schedule which already is composed of "predominately popular” fare. Is there room on a university campus for alternatives in programming? Can there be such a thing as an educated cultural minority on a major university campus? If so. shouldn’t it be converted into a Burger King management training center? — * UUAB thanks Ethos and Walt Behnke for allowing gs to reprint, and edit the majority of their January editorial.

This season marks the first time in 37 years that they are fielding a varsity ice hockey team. Through the efforts of Athletic Director R. Bruce Allison, they managed to obtain a berth in the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference’s Division II. It stands to reason then, that this small school team, comprised of mostly freshmen, would be the dregs of the league, right? Wrong. The Union College Dutchmen are tearing the league apart, having lost just one game, and they are scheduled to play the University of Buffalo Bulls tonight at the Tonawanda Sports Center. It marks the second meeting between the two clubs. The Dutchmen clobbered the Bulls 11-1 in their first encounter on January 9 in Schenectady. They are riding high in the Division II standings, and are waiting to make the Bulls another victim ol their high gear offense. Everything looks towards another Union t victory, except for one factor. Buffalo doesn Bulls feel and dead. The play intend to lay down that they can beat the Dutchmen, and gain their own spot in the Division II playoffs. Checking a must For the Bulls to defeat Union, they are going to have to play very closely, and check the Dutchman skaters as efficiently as they can. “We’re going to have to forecheck well, and play the man,” said rigjit wing Brien Grow. “The first game against Union was our first game back (from vacation), and we only had two practices under our belts.” Coach Ed Wright plans to have his skaters play very tight hockey and skate hard in the offensive zones. “We can beat Union if we forecheck and skate the way we can. We’ve proven we can do that,” said the Buffalo mentor. The Bulls have proven that against the rest of their Division II competition, in which they’ve compiled a 6-2*1 record. But the Dutchmen are probably the cream of the crop in the EC AC II. and the game will most certainly be a tough one. ,, “It’ll be a very fast game. They’re the toughest team in Division 11,” commented Grow. i, 3 i > ni ■ ■■ Opening night jitters Although neither team could open up more tan a two-point lead until the overtime period. Buffalo coach Carolyn Thomas thought the Bulls played poorly. She cited their 27 turnovers, as well as the fact that it was their first game of the year. The next day they overwhelmed Potsdam 56-35, giving Thomas something to be pleased about. “The last ten minutes against Potsdam they really got it together. We had balanced play.” Trapper and O’Malley each had 1 2 points while Pam Tellock had 10. Later, Thomas said that if the two games had been played in reverse order, she thought that Buffalo would have won both games. Swimmers drawn The swimmers were the only Buffalo women’s team to have no success over the weekend, dropping a 70-61 decision to Potsdam. Women’s Athletics Chairman Dr. Barbara Sevier said that although the mermaids were defeated, their overall performance was quite commendable. She noted that nine individual performances by Buffalo swimmers were good enough to qualify for the state championships. Additionally, one diver and the 200 medley and freestyle relay teams also qualified for those championships which will be held at Potsdam on February _ 545: - Basketball v. Fairfield.

The women’s basketball squad lost in overtime to St. Lawrence on Friday before beating Potsdam on Saturday, while the women’s swimmers lost in the last second of their last race to Potsdam. The women’s bowlers continued their season finishing second to Penn State in the RIT Invitational Saturday. Buffalo’s Clyde O’Malley hit a 25-foot shot with about 25 seconds remaining against St. Lawrence, but the Larries came right back with two points of their own to go out in front by two. Then Barb Fislar hit a clutch jump-shot with only two seconds remaining to tie the game tor Buffalo. After a turnover by St. Lawrence, the Bulls had one last chance to ice the game, but Nan Harvey’s hurried shot rolled off the rim at the buzzer. The Larries took advantage ol Buffalo's foul trouble in the overtime. Ann Trapper. Buffalo's leading rebounder and scorer, fouled out. while three other Buffalo players were on the court with four fouls. The Larries also hit all six of their freethrows in the extra period to clinch the win. Ruddy * - Harness the master mind Tire main reason for the Dutchmen’s success has been the coaching of Ned Harkness. a former Detroit Red Wing coach and general manager. He has taken his NHL experience and coupled it with his vast college background (20 years at RPI and Cornell) to provide the Dutchmen with a keen insight into the game. Harkness is the big man in Union College hockey, and Buffalo goaltender John Moore realizes it, saying that “he’s done a great job with the team.” But Grow doesn’t think that Harkness’ coaching will have any effect on the Bulls' performance. “Union in just another team. Harkness is a big factor to them, but he’s no big deal to us." What may prove to be a big deal to the Bulls is the slate of their health. According to trainer Dennis Kasprzyk, many of the Bulls are playing with minor injuries, which may or may not have some bearing on their performances. Listed among the skating wounded are RW Rick Costello (hip pointer). Fred Sutton (torn knee cartilage), and co-captain Paul Songin (severely bruised thigh). But if the Bulls can check as enthusiastically as they think, their optimism may be matched by their goal total and provide them with a big win over the Union College.Dutchman. .

Thus, the responsibility foi pioposed increase in tuition rests with Carey, who during his gubernatorial campaign, pledged that he would "liold the line” on tuition and room rents. The specific line on higher education in the I inventor's budget implied that a tuition increase was planned by SUNY to leduce the gap between private and public education costs, and that the (inventor took these plans into consideration in the formation of his budget. Tempering his stance A Carey aide contacted hy the Student Association of the State University (SASUI slated that “the (.overnor is tempering his stance" on holding down tuition. Another Carey office spokesperson admitted to SASH that the false statement “damages the Chancellor’s credibility and places the Trustees in a bad light." According to this official, the sentence should not have appeared in the document and did so through a “mlx-up.” SASU strongly opposes any student lee hikes, but a spokesperson for its legislative staff said he was “pleased" to see that SUNY was not responsible for originating the hikes SASII officials aie incensed at the Governor's retreat from his campaign promise to SI'NY students.

Jackalone charged that Carey “made a promise to the students, channelled through SASU. in order to gain their support." and he is now letting them down. Jackalone feels there will be serious “questions" from many, should Carey run for re-election. “I suppose he had no political choice,” he added, pointing out that Cfcjey’s alternatives were to cut something else in the stale budget or raise taxes.

Included in this figure is over S55 million in “Bundy Aid." which is awarded on the basis of degrees granted by the institution. No consideration is given to whether or not the students getting the degrees are residents of New York state. Reconsideration of this funding has been strongly urged by SASU in light of “the systematic dismantling of public higher education which is currently facing us." �Fee history the first time organized disruptions within SUNY, and widespread turmoil on campuses throughout the nation.

That year, more -than 30 bills considered anti-student in nature were filed in the state legislature. “However, even in response to the relatively minor disruptions as compared to what would come, legislators and taxpayers were asking where the money for these leaflets, and demonstartkms, buses was coming from.

By spring of 1970, twenty states had approved several of these measures, ten states had measures vetoed, defeated, or supported buses to Washington. Indeed, student activity fees provided a convenient source for all related strike activities.” While an uneasy quiet settled over most of the nation’s campuses the following semester the State University at Buffalo sought to gain political capital. “Continued anti-student backlash, coupled with a misunderstanding of the nature of the mandaotry student fee. made it the perfect target for groups that wished to take revenge on students who had destroyed a public university in New York throughout the preceding year. An easily excited, conservative upstate New York population believed what they read about the uses of the student activity fees at the State University campuses and was outraged. “It was the perfect issue on which to vent their anger; kill the source that was again the sene qf disruptions centered around the demands of black athletes, the war, ROTC, and defense-related research.

Universities cancelled classes for protest marches and large mass demonstrations on campuses. In new York State, small-scale rioting occurred on at least four campuses of the State University and signs of what was going r | an unclear issue, whether the money was actually state money or not, served to complicate the issue. “Student governments were moving to the political left in the activities they wished to fund with student fees; student newspapers were moving to the left in the issues they editorially advocated; students wanted to tee fee money spent not on social clubs and mixers, but on inner-city breakfast programs, community action groups and other organizations aimed at changing the fiber of the American society, or at least the expectation level of the American society. The more conservative public could not accept this and, angered by the disruptions in spring of 1970, the student activity fee became the logical focal point of a public backlash.” i •■•■•■•■•■•■•■•■•■•■•I MEAT TACOS | Buy 2—Get 1 Free Pitcher of Beer $1.50 (our reg. low price) | TIPPY'S TACO HOUSE 2351 Sheridan 838-3900 across from Putt-Putt g - coupon expires Fab. 2, 1976 I NOTE: The Report!ng/Writing Workshop will meet Tuesday at 7 p.m. in 355 Norton Hall.

Nuclear reactors in commercial operation today will require at least 1.5 million years to “cool down” to safe radiation levels, according to a New York (NYPIRG) Group Public Interest Research investigation conducted by physicist Marvin Resnikoff and nine student NYPIRG members. Nuclear industry officials, including members of the Atomic Industrial Forum (AIF), said they couldn’t dispute the NYPIRG finding point by point until they had examined it in detail, but their initial reaction was that the findings are “incredible and somewhat unbelievable.” The industry has estimated a maximum period of 200 years for reactor cool-down. AIF spokesperson David Ha ward admitted, however, that if the study’s estimate of 1.5 million years for cool-down is accurate, the effect on the growth of nuclear energy in the United States would be “very serious.” Confidence Haward pointed out, however, that NYPIRG’s is the first study he has seen which estimates the cooling off period at more than 200 years. He added that AIF is currently working on a survey of its own on all aspects of nuclear decommission that will be released in the spring. Resnikoff said he and NYP1RG have “absolute confidence” in their conclusions. He added that the study, which took an entire semester to compile and research, will be submitted to the U.S. nuclear regulatory and research organizations. Charles Thorripas Jr., director of the Nuclear Science and Technical Facility, said he has “serious doubts about the validity of the figures” in the NYP1RG report. “I have never heard anyone talk v , seriously about such a long peribd of time,” he claimed Harmful radiation Resnikoff explained that nuclear reactors are built to last for about 40 years, and then be retired from service or decommissioned. The radioactive fuel is removed from the reactor he explained, isolating from the environment any materials which contain harmful long-lasting radiation. While some small experimental reactors with % generating capacities of 5 megawatts or less have been decommissioned, all of the large commercial reactors are still operating. Some of these reactors, he said, have generating capacities of 3,000 megawatts. Resnikoff charged that the nuclear industry has grossly underestimated the time it takes the decommissioned materials to lose their harmful radiation. He said the studies prepared by the industry failed to take into account the presence of Nickel-59, a radio nuclide (species of atom), in the reactor components. “Some of the radio nuclides require a short time to decay, but Nickel-59 has a half-life of 80,000 .... years,” he said. He further claimed that the costs of isolating these dangerous materials for over a million years will be “enormous.” NYP1RG Executive Director Donald Ross predicted that as a result of Resnikoff’s research, “future estimates of decommissioning costs” will have to be “closely scrutinized.” He believes that if the cost of nuclear waste disposal is too high, “we should look elsewhere for our energy needs.” Moruiay, 26,Jajiuary.!|.976 .

The big networks are perhaps the worst of large-scale mental perpetrators conditioning. Relaxed and unaware, as many as 50 million Americans sit back and feast upon a banquet of situation comedies, soap operas, mindless game sitting shows and variety extravaganzas ducks for the commercial pitch at 10-minute intervals. The rare, first-rate specials and high-quality shows are too few and far between. In the Buffalo area, T.V. viewers pick up, on the average, eight channels. WNED-TV (Channel 17) is the sole oasis in this desert of commercial nonsense. Publicly-funded and therefore under no editorial pressure from commercial sponsors, Channel 17 lives up to its reputation as a true, “educational network.” WNET-TV is the only station in the area which takes more than ratings into consideration in program scheduling. The selection process is a complicated procedure, but one which balances station-management and subscriber preference. Subscribers (those viewers who make an annual donation to the station) are periodically mailed a list of potential programs and are asked to “vote” for the programs of their choice. This feedback is a valuable and important factor as the station management decides on program purchasing and scheduling. The public station offers a wide variety of unique programs, ranging from ' by Thad Komorowski Spectrum Staff Writer this once-vast planet into a global community. The mere turn of a knob enables a person to view history as it is being made from a South American Soccer match to the latest — Kissinger junket. Forty years ago the concept of T.V. would have been laughed at (and was), but since its introduction to the United States in the mid-1940’s, the world has witnessed technological this medium’s rapid improvement. Once a fuzzy, 8-inch blue-light luxury, T.V. has become a living color, remote-controlled, works-in-a-drawer necessity. “People nowadays require the electronic pablum that television provides,” says Ralph Fast, sociologist at Niagara University. “In a society replate with unknowing introverts, television remains a person’s only contact with the outside world. Sad as it may seem, it is much easier to watch the old boob-tube than to go to a play, visit friends, or even read the newspaper,” Fast commented. To the average person, T.V. provides as much entertainment, information, and indirect social contact as is needed. But is it really sufficient? Are T.V. “addicts” willfully shutting out from their lives other, perhaps more important means of communication? The minds of steady viewers of Kojak, Medical Center, and Gilligan’s Island reruns, become easy prey for Madison Avenue advertising agencies — Soundstage to Yoga and You to Monty Python’s Flying Circus. The accalimed Masterpiece Theatre is one of Channel 17’s most successful programming ventures. Perhaps the best feature of all is that WNET-TV is commercial-free. Short intervals between shows provide ample opportunity for viewers to grab a snack, make a phone call, or take the clothes out of the dryer. This, combined of course with first-rate programming, provides for a successful art medium. f?* There IS a v\\ I // L#RID difference!!! I • PR£« • MCA!

Unlike the chronicles of the Adams family Which are being handed to us this bicentennial year as, those of the archetypal American family. Woiwode's evokes the succeeding generations of the Neumiller family. Immigrating from Germany to North Dakota in 1881, Otto Neumiller homesteaded and expanded his land holdings in the halcyon days of dry-land wheat farming, only to be caught in the drought of the late 1910’s and the which ravaged the northern Plains states. His “common sense" and resourcefulness kept financial catastrophe away, but at the same lime he incurred the hatred of everyone else in the small farming community who was going bankrupt. But all this is in the past. The novel opens known later as C.J.C., the as his son Charles patriarch of the Neumiller family in Illinois comes hack alone to wash him and dress him, to build his coffin and to bury him. It is not Charles but Charles' son Martin... Martin's wife Alpha . . . Martin and Alpha’s eldest son Jerome . . . It is Jerome’s brother Charles whom the novel revolves about. Charles carries his father’s (Martin) and his grandfather’s (Charles) search for material success in the I asl past Illinois, where they ended up. all the way to New York City only to head west, like his great-grandfather Otto, in search of land on w hich to root himself and his family.

And attain, in Beyond the Bedroom Wall, he focuses upon the "interior" struggles of the characters as they find their individual desires clashing with their communal desires. Generational conflicts and religious conflicts (both personal and societal!, the rivalry of siblings and the emptiness of commercialized death all form part of the "reality" which Woiwode attempts to capture in his novel. I he structure of the book itself is a result of the narrator's own struggle to establish the subjectivity oil past experiences with the same concreteness and immediacy with which the image or physical aspect of past experiences can be remembered. Woiwode suggests an analogy between "remembering" and “lookingat photographs" by subtitling the novel “A family Album." The problem faced by the narrator (and the reader) is very much the satire as that which troubles Marie. Tine of Charles' sisters. Looking through the Neumrller family albums. Marie tries lo recall herself among the constellation of facts preserved in the snapshots; "fvery week she paged through the family albums, all three ol them. hoping lo find some clue lo her makeup and emotional texture at that time.

For Charles himself “there was nothing in (his memories] of who his grandfather was, or what [Charles] felt for him." The memories (and the photos) preserve none of the non-gestalt elements of experience; it is these elements which are destroyed “in time" (“by time,” some would say). As Douglas Davis remarks in the latest Enquire. “a photograph is daily life. To look at it is 1 not to in very complex ways escape reality; it is to create reality." If to look is to create, then so too is remembering a creative act. Woiwode’s recognition of the creative or fictive quality of "remembering is what gives the narrator and his narrative an ever increasing resonance throughout the novel. The narrator thinks back and sees himself as a stranger, as a non-specific and impersonal figure in the past, with no more specificity than any other figure in his past. Given a matrix of physical data he then proceeds to create (through fiction) the and personal intentionality of the he creates the experience. And because situation he himself Is a stranger like any of the other figures in his past, he can create their intentionalities as subjective well. Beyond the Bedroom Wall is more than a presentation of facts from which the reader can construct a reality and inject intentionality (of a cultural or critical norm) It is the struggle on the part of the narrator (and on the part of the reader) to create a viable present out of the past, to create experiences which fill in and give meaning to a constellation of memories t of facts). This is a fiction born out of the narrator's struggle to remember his past; it is an attempt to create a past which establishes the intentionality which, in turn, gave form to his own present existence. It is a fiction which stands as the narrator’s final recovery of his earlier emotional reality as well as the reality of his present existence.

Page five <>fiZ ieoTeceH �EditPrial Correction Moving backwards control the purse-strings of NYPIRG by withholding approval of the organization's contract with the Student Association is actually part of a subterfuge for taking control of mandatory student fees out of the hands of students. In the six years The Ketter administration's determination to that Robert Ketter has served as President, the University has seen a student body that has taken an active role in Friends conservative administration. When the mandatory activity fee was established in the late 1960's, the Board of Trustees authorized the student body at each state-operated campus, either directly or through duly-elected representatives, to set up programs of an educational, social, cultural, or recreational nature. The guidelines were worded loosely to allow students pretty much free reign in spending the fees. However, an anti-student gentiment grew across the state, and as student governments began using their money for more radical activities that challenged the existing social structure, outraged conservatives attempted to chip away at this source of student power. At this University in particular, students elected to spend the bulk of their activities fees on health care, community action, consumer advocacy, cooperative ventures, and the student press, the very areas that are currently under attack by the Ketter administration. And Ketter makes no secret of his plans to extend his sphere of influence even further. For one thing, he means business when he questions the fiscal independence of student corporations such as NYPIRG and The Spectrum and students would be taking great risks if they didn't prepare for any tricks Ketter might have up his sleeve. The important thing to remember is that no one on this campus has unlimited power. If the administration is clearly outstepping its bounds by infringing on the right of students to determine how mandatory fees are spent, then students must challenge its actions. Legally, as long as it has been determined that the expenditures fall within state guidelines. it doesn't matter whether the students take every penny of on activities fees and spend it on one giant beer blast or projects that benefit students as consumers and socially-conscious citizens The Spectrum Monday, 48 Editor-in-Chief apologizes for any personal slight to Ms. Laub as well as Sny public misunderstanding.

Larry I iirinaii I’ai Kyan Mark Chau-n I’au! Srhtrfikhartl Sheila llaiihm �Guest Opinion Another name : To the Editor by Publicity Committee Women’s Studies College On October 31, 1975, President Robert Keller removed five WSC courses from the computer. Those courses are; Women in Contemporary Society (213), the evening division (214), Women's Art 'Studio (221), Women in Photography (199-200), and Women’s Automcchanic (223). All five courses were all women's classes, and Ketter used the pretense of their alleged illegality to deny women of the educational benefit of all women’s classes. As of January 12, 1976, these courses are back in the computer. But they are re-instated with the condition of open enrollment. Since this is a change from Women’s Studies College’s struggle to maintain the integrity of these courses, this column lays out the rationales for our decision to open our courses to male enrollment. WSC offered all women’s courses almost from the beginning of its existence. The all women’s format grew out of our practice; we found it to be the most effective way to create quality education for women. All women’s classes are aimed at the neglected realities of women's lives, and at the need to develop a social analysis that encompasses the diversity of women’s lives. In these classes, women work together to learn skills historically denied to them. The all women’s format provides a space free from the ingrained sexist relations between men and women. In such an environment, women can share their experiences as women, and come to understand them as part of a social context. Because sex differences are not in the foreground, women can examine the differences among them that are based on race, class and sexuality. Despite the success of our courses in meeting women’s needs, the administration has attacked WSC’s selective use of all women’s classes since the fall of 1974. By January I, 1975, President Ketter was forced to approve the selective use of all women’s classes through the pressure of student demand. The sole stipulation of Ketter's public approval was that each course demonstrate the education validity of its all women’s format. In May 1975, the Division of Undergraduate Education approved all five classes on the basis of educational raionalcs provided by WSC. However, in the summer of 1975, with our student support away, the administration attempted to revoke the concession made to student demand and the demonstrated validity of the courses. The administration invoked the sex discrimination legislation known as Title IX. and claimed that our practice was illegal. After serious consideration and consultation with legal counsel, WSC maintains that the five all women’s classes are in complete accord with the spirit and intent of Title IX. It is legislation designed for women, not to be used against us. and one of its central provisions calls for affirmative action measures to “redress the effects of past discrimination." WSC’s all women’s courses constitute such affirmative action. They are an educational method that works against the historical oppression of women. Further, the administration’s misuse of this legislation is clear, it chose to use Title IX against WSC, and ignores the widespread sex discrimination on this campus in such areas as athletics and faculty. WSC's position on the nature and implementation of Title IX is strong. According to legal counsel, nine out of ten lawyers agree with our interpretation; and our arguments for the necessity of affirmative action measures which might include selective enrollment in courses was endorsed by the Faculty Senate, student support, hundreds of letters from all over the country, and thousands of signatures on petitions. Nonetheless, the five courses were removed from the computer. When representatives of WSC met with Ketter before Thanksgiving to demand the re-instatement of these courses, Ketter noticably backed away from his weak legal position, and again raised the issue of the educational validity of these classes. By constantly shifting from an untenable legal position to an equally untenable educational argument, the administration confused the issues, and simply refused to deal with the serious considerations involved. In this spirit, Ketter announced his final decision to “eliminate such courses in this University" and claimed that the “legal and educational bases for the decision” were “clear.” At that time, the semester was nearing its end and crucial student support would be absent from the campus. Ketter stood on his power, and refused to re-instate the courses. He remained unresponsive to the students he is supposed to serve, the faculty who arc supposed to advise him, and the wide range of national supporters who wrote hundreds of letters. At one meeting Ketter directly stated that the University is not a democratic institution, but is an autocratic body. In short, the needs of people are secondary to the power of the administration. Given these conditions. WSC faced a dilemma. The courses are the core of our program, and their all women's format are the basis of their quality. Ketter would listen to neither argument or support. Should we offer the courses with open enrollment or lose them entirely? Since their all women's format is crucial, how could we offer them otherwise? After a long process, WSC decided to offer the courses. We felt that it is necessary to continue to meet the needs of students on this campus. Only the availability of these courses would meet this goal and the only way to make them available was to open them to men. We also despite the problems felt that of male participation, the program could grow in other ways and the courses could create ways of continuing to meet the needs of women within a mixed environment. In our letter to Ketter, we made it clear that we maintain the right to all women’s classes and that we opened the courses only under the pressure of the administration’s irresponsible autocratic methods. We re-affirm our right and intention to continue to fight for educational goals and methods that meet women’s needs. Wu qmd It is chorking to see that the State University at Buffalo, noted for its lack of student unrest, is about to put this on the line with the Board of Trustees’ proposal on Campus Security power. Currently this school’s Campus Security officers are termed “Peace Officers;” a term which I must say they deserve highly because of their fine job of keeping things cool within the Unrveisrty community. So why change the status of these men while their responsibilities remain the same? We do not know how this system will work. I think I can speak for most of the dormitory students when I say that I have felt satisfied and secure with the protection and rights given to ns here at EBicott. I’m sure students at other dorms feel likewise. No one wants to risk at least a mental separation between the protected and the protectors. People are known to change personalities when they stand behind a gun. For the sake of the students, the peace officers themselves, as well as the whole school community; let ns continue to work together, as those who want peace with those who to bring peace for all. represent peace - ... Mike Kupnjmnow Rush hour revisited To the Editor. About two yean ago, while applying to colleges, I decided that I wanted to get away from the rat race of a big city and the crowded subways and buses Somehow I ended up here in UB, but I'm afraid that I haven't traveled too far from the everyday rash hour and standing on a public vehicle I have accepted, that living on the new campus meant a frequent, daily bus ride, back and forth from the Main Street Campus Somehow the problem of the buses seem to have progressively gotten worse. This term, yellow school buses have replaced the more comfortable and luxurious coach and Blue Bird buses. It seems that even with this stretching of our school budget, there are less vehicles on the road. The crowds waiting at the bus stops, seem to be growing m sire, instead of accommodating us on a more frequent and helpful | schedule, we are squashed on, with barely enough room to breathe. In the situation where over 100 students have to catch a specific bus for a dans, and only a limited number of students can fit on the one. available bus, everyone pushes and shoves. This is reminiscent of a New York subway. This poshing and squeezing creates a lot of bad feelings I will accept that our budget is tight and times are truly hard, but we as students are people who deserve a pleasant sort of atmosphere for Irving and learning. We are paying for it. It is not only stuffy and unpleasant being shoved onto a bus around four times per day. but it is also unsafe for so many people to be in such a confined area traveling on the icy roads Isn't there anything we can do?

Wolstenholme scored his second goal of the game at 12:31, after Ron Reisweber had put the BUlls in front 2-0 on a 20 foot slapper through legs. Stevenson’s Wolstenholme’s tip of a Paul Songin pass was followed by two of Haywood’s goals, and an Ed Patterson tally. In the game’s final frame both Haywood and Wolstenholme completed their hat tricks, along with a Jack Kaminska goal near the end of the game. “Some people are just lucky, I modest guess,” said a Wolstenholme afterwards. “Tonight was just one of those nights where it went in. It doesn’t necessarily mean that you played your best game.” There are few people tough, that will argue that the match was not one of the Bulls’ better efforts. In addition to outshooting New England 51—11, they primed themselves for a tough match on Union against College Wednesday. Last time out, the defeated Buffalo Dutchmen 11—1, but coach Wright feels that his squad can beat -Union if they “skate and forecheck the way they can.” Bulls face Sooners tonight by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer University of Guelph, and state rival Binghamton.

From coach Michael’s point of view, “the Sooners will not take the Bulls lightly.” In spite of domineering Oklahoma’s and impressive accomplishments, this contest could not have come at a more opportune time for the Bulls.

(NYPIRG) has been withheld by the University administration. Buffalo representatives of NYPIRG. independent an statewide student corporation, had been negotiating with SA officials since last summer to come up with a contract amenable both groups. When the to document was finally completed late last fall, it was forwarded to Assistant Vice President for Anthony Student Affairs Lorenzetli. According to Lorenzetti, the contract contained a number of “substantiae problems” and he sent a copy (o SUMY Counsel Walter Rdihan for an opinion as to whether expenditures of mandatory student fee monies as outlined under specific provisions of the NYPIRG contract fall within SUNY Board of Trustees guidelines. Lorenzetti also passed on the contract to President Robert Ketter who expressed several objections in a memo to the Assistant Vice President dated December 16,1975. student body He added that he would probably have no objections to the contract if NYPIRG specified projects it was planning that would directly benefit students here. , feel, members NYPIRG however, that the administration is .trying to manipulate student control over their fees. “REFs are a way to keep control. Students get so concerned over the issue of money that they can't operate or advance. They don’t want to take risks,” Siegel said. She said Ketter is afraid the contract gives certain power to students over their money which “the administration does not want to lose.” , The contract calls for the payment of S25,000 by SA to NYPIRG in five installments to SS.000 beginning October IS, No difference Siegel said NYPIRG wants to 1975.

Siegel their money for said NYPIRG requested the that they can use indicating that said, money in lump sums so that the anything,” he spent group could have greater control unless the money is according to Board of Trustees over its spending. could lose the Both Ketter and Lorenzetti guidelines, “we of what the money oppose the transfer of student initial intent all about.” fees from this University to the was Lorenzetti acknowledged that parent NYPIRG, arguing there although SASU “raises questions, will be no accountability for “My general it is a recognized student group expenditures across the state.” Ketter later understanding is that the contract added that “there is no (SUNYJ isn't specific enough.” Lorenzetti ruling that says NYPIRG is a said. legitimate agency. The question must be considered individually ‘Loose’ wording campus.” Ketter also took issue with the on each “loose" wording of several of the contract. Item 2, sections for example, says. "NYPIRG recognizes its basic responsibility to the students at jSUNY Buffalo) and agrees that it will keep student interests in mind formulating projects. while Whenever possible, the projects developed by NYPIRG will relate to student needs and desires.” Claiming that this might allow NYPIRG to undertake projects that would not necessarily relate to student needs here. Ketter told The Spectrum Wednesday night that the use of mandatory fees collected at this University must be directly identifiable to the � Technicalities Other items Kelter interpreted as illegal were SA's agreement to arrange office space for NYPIRG staff and a provision for granting academic credit to students for working on NYPIRG projects. Siegel noted that NYPIRG is perfectly willing to make any technical amendments to the contract hut that the administration will not negotiate with the organization. "Our capacity hasn’t changed.

After lunch, at the College’s house at 264 Winspear, those present will hopefully break up into Men’s Support Groups for discussion. The College has operated a Men’s Studies program over the last few years. A course entitled ’’Men’s Roles In Recent American Fiction” has been a launching pad forT(he formation of a number of the men’s groups. 'Supportive interaction' College F spokesperson Harold Meyerowitz said that many of the men involved in the groups have found them to be an effective way to deal with their lives as men in a society where it is difficult to achieve social, economic and emotional fulfillment. In addition, he said, many of the men discovered that they had common feelings about their experiences in support of these goals, and that the groups have been an of outlet for expressing feelings as well as gaining an understanding their lives as men. Meyerowitz continued that the groups have focused less on providing intellectual perspectives than on providing supportive interaction for chaging and dealing with social roles that men have been conditioned to play.

Do you know what your College Council is? To answer the second question first, the SUNY Buffalo Council is comprised primarily of Western New York businessmen who have the power to deny or approve any space allocations on campus. In addition, the body can draw up regulations governing the conduct of students and approve major plans for the University. IN effect, a College Council is like a of miniature SUNY Board for which sets its policy Trustees local campus. Recently, the SUNY Buffalo Council broached the topic of student services at this University, members voicing their many objections to having non-profit student enterprises competing with private businesses.

He felt the Jlowever, he said an 82 percent reduction in state funding for University health care services to be substituted with monies from a student fee is “a terrible idea.” Services remain the same He said the services would remain about the same, but feels if there is a fee, it should be “a supplement and not a substitute.” He fears students would have “no say, no control” over what is done, with their health fee money. Campagna noted gloomily that a fee is “to thirik there won’t be just fooling ourselves.” Rubinstein, Director of of the Student Association of the State University (SASU). calculates that a fee of S30-S35 per student would save SUNY S5.5 million next year. “The University’s been hit pretty hard,” he said. “A health fee would free a vast sum of that could be used money Todd Information University of at)out $5 per ' memo further The recommended that each campus “would be authorized to utilize from campus-related funds elsewhere.” i student. Both Rubinstein and SASU Women's basketball Strategies change for the new season by Joy dark Staff Writer Spectrum With ten returnees to the women’s basketball team including a healthy Anne Trapper, coach Carolyn Thomas is having a hard time choosing a starting five. “We have all the things it takes,” she said. “It’s just a matter of getting good combinations.” Trapper, a 6’1” senior, was injured in last year’s first game and was unable to play the rest of the year. Without her scoring, rebounding and defense, the Bulls had to develop an outside game to replace Trapper’s exceptional inside play. Although Trapper has the ability to dominate the game, Thomas says she’s more of a team player. “She’ll distribute the play and set up shots,” Thomas said. “She doesn’t take many shots just to take a shot.” Senior Patty Dolan, Junior Barb Fislar and Sophomore Lynne Azzaro are the leading candidates for the forward spots. Dolan is an outstanding rebounder (she led the team in rebounding last year) with a quick release and plays solid defense. Azzaro moves towards the basket well while Fislar, a transfer from Buffalo State, adds good shooting and strong inside play. Clyde and Frazier Among those vying for the guard positions are junior Clyde O’Malley, senior Pam Tellock, and sophomores Gina Frazier and Nan Harvey. Frazier and Harvey will be counted on for outside shooting. Tellock moves with the ball well and has good body control. O’Malley is slated to direct the offense, and continue her tqpgh defensive play from last year. Sandy Eynon will serve as Trapper’s back-up, and Thomas has a lot of praise for the 5’8” sophomore. “Sandy is the most improved player on the team and she’ll give Anne pretty good relief.’’ Thomas commented Thomas plans to change her strategy from last year’s zone defense. “We’re going to have more player-to-player defense.” she declared. “We’re going to press a lot harder and force more mistakes.” She also intends to fast-break more than last year. In spite of a tough schedule. Thomas is optimistic about this season. “We’re in good condition, and we’re looking forward to having a pretty good season.” she staled.

Kiefer feels that Carl Cavago was right in filing a formal complaint with Erie County because “the UB offer unfair definitely does Coop competition to his store.” Similarly, he said, the Student Pharmacy, which recently opened in November, offers direct competition with Lee’s Drugstore and other drugstores in the University area.

No one from Super Duper was avaOable for comment, but employees of the Ken-Paul Bakery' said that “the situation was unfortunate." although. Other Plaza about student Financial loss He estimated a daily loss of anywhere from S10 on prescriptions alone and these are "probably low figures.” In addition, another S300 is being lost daily from fewer sales of magazines, sundries and incidentals that most customers buy while waiting for a prescription to be filled. Most prescriptions that Kiefer fills are for antibiotics used in treating colds, flus and allergic reactions. especially during the winter season. These and GU prescriptions < genital-urinary I total OO percent Of his prescriptions. The remaining 10 percent go to the treatment of venereal diseases, mostly crabs, which come and go in epidemics and for which a product called Quell is usually to SI00 prescribed. “School doctors are extremely cautious about and tranquilizers sleeping pills. prescribing amphetamines to students." said Kiefer, adding that, "most students who want these drugs for kicks buy them on the black market." Kiefer emphasized that his losses are directly related to sales made by the Student Pharmacy. However, he fell that the small pharmacy in the Medical Center on Bailey Avenue and Highgate has probably suffered greater losses than his store because it deals almost solely with prescription drugs In a decision to be made possibly next Tuesday, President Robert Ketter is expected to clarify the position of the Student Pharmacy in terms of its funding, directors and educational value. Contingent upon this decision is the interning of eight pharmacy students as clerks in the Student Pharmacy. All pharmacy students must work six months in a drugstore or a hospital to obtain their degrees. Kiefer feels that work in the Student Pharmacy would not be as valuable an experience for pharmacy majors as working in a regular drugstore. “This experience is practically worthless." he said, “because these students would be dealing solely with other students. Most pharmacy problems are elderly people, with some of whom are schizophrenics or very depressed people, types of people with whom there is no contact m a university situation." “Students working in the Student Pharmacy would not know how to deal with this type ot situation." he continued. “In addition," he said, “we won't nil any criplions from Welfare. Medicaid or Blue C'ros« cookies.” They noted importantly that “there is no direct communication between merchants in the University Plaza.” The head employee of Record Runner was hesitant to comment on the Garages situation, saying that, “if we get him pissed off, be could squelch us ” flKfeeb that his business has not been hurt by any adverse publicity concerning his more powerful neighbor record retailer, but “there is not as much free money as during first semester,.” he said. “More importantly.” he continued, “in spile of The Spectrum editorials, and articles condemning Gavagcs. University students still shop there.” An employee of Cavages, who wished to remain anonymous, said that “it is a very touchy situation, but there has been little or no change in volume of sales from last semester until now.” There has been no harassment of the store by students, except for the window-breaking and telephone wire clipping incidents of last semester. "Students who usually buy records in the Coop rarely come to Cavages anyway,” the employee said.

So far, three students have been treated and released from University Health Service while one unidentified student will undergo X-rays to determine the extent of his injury. All four casualties resulted from falls on the trecherous sidewalks around campus. Maintenance officials say they have been working “furiously” to control the icy situation, but due to additional snowfall and cutbacks in personnel, their progress has been slow. The new snow, according to one maintenance man, is “freezing over the salt already dropped.” Dr. MLuther Musselman, Acting Director of University Health Service, said that besides the four injuries that have already been reported, he expects more in the future. He said the number of injuries is “significant but not huge,” but added, “it’s pretty bad. I almost killed myself (on the ice).” Many students contacted by The Spectrum classified the situation as trecherous, and one student said he injured his back while walking between Harriman Library and Norton Union.

Ismael Gonzalez, Elliot Sharp, Paul Ginsberg and Gary Gleba were all given six month suspensions by University President Robert Ketter. Charles Reitz, another student involved in the incident, was suspended for one year despite the recommendations for more lenient treatment by the University Committee for the Maintenance ofPublic Order. The Committee prescribed suspensions of six months for Reitz, Gleba and Ginsberg,and suggested six months probation for Gonzales and Sharp.

Ginsberg stated that he did not know if he would take similar actions in the future. “Most people didn’t expect anything as intense as what happened in Hayes, and didn’t know what they were getting into,” he said. “Although I have no proof, I think that Campus Security is keeping surveillance over me,” Gonzales claimed. Ginsberg concurred, but emphasized that they cannot prove this allegation. Plans for redress against Campus Security, Ketter, or the University are vague at this time, according to Gonzalez. Ginsberg said that he. Sharp and Gleba cannot bring suit due to a document that they signed conditional to dropping their charges.

Brody defined health as “a state of both physical and social well being.” "Health is not simply the absence of disease, or the difference between life and death,” Brody remarked. “Health is measured by an individual’s ability to master a certain stage of life. In other words, his ability to master his expected role in life. Health is also relative to an individual’s work potential. After an individual begins to “slow down” he is considered “aged.” To a 65. laborer, this happens after age 40. To a surgeon it happens at age he may After a person feels he is unable to work as well as he used to, begin to feel unneeded and useless. Loneliness This is where a person’s mental and emotional health may affect the his physical health.

In Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, a recent flood disaster area, the aged expressed great tear “To of ending up in a nursing home, after having lost their own homes. staying only of out hope and his family his friends are an older person, home,” Brody explained. Brody indicated that one out of every five elderly persons today end up in a nursing home, and out of these people, 20% are unmarried and 40% never had children. Brody believes that an unhappy or lonely background contribues to ill health. “The number of people in with hospitals today who are unmarried, and who have problems of people than the number family or friends, is tremendously higher who come from happy backgrounds. of a nursing Non-medical factors “There is a series of generic, sociological, and man-made factors is which determine health,” according to Brody. First, an individual more groups ethnic are his ethnic Certain mold. directly affected by susceptible to diseases than, others. Blacks for example, are more susceptible to sickle-celled anemia, and less likely to contract malaria. People of Mediterranean descent are susceptible to diabetes more than others. Brody also mentioned the importance of personality mold, family background, and “man-made” stresses. Factors such as marriage, divorce, friendships and children have direct effect upon personality of a job. forced mold. Man-made “life stresses” such as pollution, loss definite effect retirement, low income and high medical bills, have well-being. and upon a person's health Brody concluded his 60-minute lecture by suggesting that society's mental institutions give equal consideration to social services and health as to medical research and service. “Health problems cannot be effectively dealt with until social, economic and emotional problems example, it a woman are treated along with medical diagnoses For does not slop with her problem with contusions, enters the emergency husband, who the treatment of her contusions. Her real problem is her beat her." "The cost of National Health Insurance has skyrocketed, jumping the from S2J0 per month in 15 to $500 per month today, and yet health of the American people has not improved,” This is because not enough attention has been given to social services. We need social workers and nurses as much as we need doctors and medication, Brody charged. Friday, 23 January 1976 . The Spectrum .

We do not feel this is the case. Film Fox and other Dennis the past semester Chairperson Committee members have worked hard to balance mass-entertainment films which can also be seen in commercial theaters with films rarely shown outside the University, but which have attracted much notice from critics and students elsewhere. Officials of SA and Sub Board have pointed to the film series run by the Community Action Corps as an example of the sort of films UUAB should be presenting. We must point out, however, that CAC is showing films primarily to raise money for a number of worthy causes, rather than trying to present a well-balanced film program. We do not think that UUAB should compete with CAC to show the same mass-appeal films, even though some SA officials seem to feel It should. The two groups should rather cooperate with each other and the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) to provide a wide range of films to suit varied tastes.

Few people realize that the UUAB Fine Arts Film Cpmmittee is not just another commercial promoter of films. The committee itself has a responsibility to fill a gap in the film program of our community by providing “artistic” (foreign or otherwise) films that are not necessarily available for viewing in Buffalo Theatres. Having worked in the same office with Dennis Fox and Joan Kirsch, I must oppose the statement that they are using the committee as an “instrument” to project their own tastes in films. It is only too obvious that when one picks a film for a large number to see, one’s own tastes and whims lfwlly realize jjhat tfcere art many students who ,go Jo see what Art IMprdkr calls “popular” films.

UUAB Endangering cultural programs Editor’s note: The following letter was sent to Arthur Lalonde, Executive Vice President, Student . Association. , I have been following with dismay the actions of SA and Sub Board regarding censorship of UUAB’s weekend film series. I find your vague and simplistic criterion of “popularity” questionable. But what is more disturbing than this issue is the strong-arm tactics you are employing which seriously endanger the health of cultural programming on campus. UUAB must have a degree of integrity and cannot be subject to the whims of student politics. It must generate from within programming knowledge and expertise, year-to-year continuity, and a coherent philosophy. Feedback fr6m students should come through such UUAB channels as Roughing the Russians canvasing, student participation, etc., not through the kind of intervention I am writing in regard to Larry Amoros’ “expert” commentary on the Russian, Philadelphia hockey series. Obviously Larry did not watch the game or he would not have said the Russians weren’t seriously threatened. In the game I saw there were a lot of rough-house tactics used by the Flyers. Dave Schulz shoved a glove in a Russian player's face for no reason at all. Don Saleski high-sticked a number of Russian players in the corners. Moose Dupont was constantly using his stick. Bobby Clarke repeated his “great” performance of the “72 Series by slashing everyone who came near him.” About Ed, “The Stick,” Van Impe’s alleged tripping, it was at the least a high stick. It could have been called a butt end even. I agreed with the Russians when they left the ice. 1 think more NHL teams should do that and have the owners lose a little money once in a while. Maybe the Flyers would change their ways if this would happen enough. If you watched the game and didn’t see these things happen then you must have been one of the many ignorants who saw the game being played against those Communist Russians, instead of as a hockey game between two teams.

The brochure stated the first day of registration as January 19. An insert changed the date to January 12 as we were able to set up the necessary registration procedures sooner than we had anticipated. Actually, we thought this was terrific! In the past we have had to turn people away during the first week of the semester because we were not that inserts do get lost in dormitory and classroom shuffles. Many individuals ended up with brochures that had long lost the insert. On January 19 our office was overwhelmed with people who thought it was the first day of registration and could not understand why they were already being closed out of certain workshops. As a result, many individuals were understandably disappointed and disgruntled. While it delights me to see so much interest in the Life Workshops program, I know that continued disappointment does not breed continued interest. Sorry, it won’t happen again.

Not only do such tactics destroy the above processes, they also demoralize people who work very hard and often receive little recognition. Is SA really in a more privileged position to know what students want and have the right to see? If you are receiving some complaints why not refer them to UUAB where they can be dealt with more directly? Personally, I find the weekend series refreshing a good mixture of the more currently “popular” films, and those not easily accessible. These latter “foreign” films (which are hardly esoteric) are kept obscure largely through such anti-art attitudes that SA and Sub-Board display. Such attitudes are not worthy of students of a major university. v This semester several members of the performance faculty (also members of the Buffalo Philharmonic), are being forced to cut back on their hours of private instruction because-this University cannot afford to pay them for the number of hours they are required to teach. Last semester they were teaching well over the number of hours they were being paid to teach and probably will not receive the back pay that they are entitled to. I’m writing this letter to make the entire student body aware of this problem, and to say that if they think something similar to this can’t happen to them, they’re wrong. All students, at this and every State University, must get together and stop these cutbacks in vital services. I am personally enraged that my private lesson time will be reduced. Many students, including myself, have juries, recitals, auditions and many other things to prepare for before this semester is over. This work can only be done on a one-to-one basis every week. I realize that it is not stated in any catalogue or brochure of this University that music majors are required to receive private instruction every week; but this is understood, and also how it’s done in every college and university in this country. 1 pay my tuition with the understanding that I will receive one hour of private instruction every week; not one-half hour every week or one hour every other week. This is what I and many other students will be receiving this semester. I know that music students and those interested in music can and will not allow this to happen. The Undergraduate Music Student Association will meet next week to discuss this problem. We will do everything we possibly can do to correct it. All students must get together, before it’s too late. The cutbacks have started, and will continue, unless we stop them now! / Martin Miller, Chairman Undergraduate Music Student Association Friday, 25 January 1976 The Spectrum .

We live in the EUicott Complex and have just received a notice from the Custodial Services in reference to overheated rooms, which result in students opening their windows. The service requests that-students with stuffy rooms fill out a work order to adjust the thermostats. “If a window is open and cold air is coming in contact with the thermostat, the heat will continue to come in, often at a higher rate.” The request is valid, but not to all Amherst students. Many of the wings here on EUicott are directly hit by strong winds, creating freezing rooms, because of poorly constructed windows. Students leave their thermostats up as high as they can in hope that the rooms will stay heated. But they don’t. After a few numbing days and nights, the rooms do eventually get comfortable. But then, Buffalo is known for its winds, and they do come again . . and again .. . and again. Granted, there are rooms that are protected from the wind and are constantly stuffy. Yes, their thermostats should be adjusted. Our only complaint is that the Custodial Service and Housing Office can do nothing for the frost-bitten students. Rosemary Duda Debbie Engelman Cindy Smart Police officers not necessary To the Editor. It is important not to mistake the issue of arming Campus Security with that of changing the status of Security (from Peace Officer to Police Officer). They are not the same. The question of the status of our Security is in fact, much more fundamental to the structure of our campus community, and, in deciding this, we construct a frameworkfor much of this community’s future development. This decision, then, should rest solely and equally with the people who share in the University’s environment as a matter of routine. Consider the various effect that police officers on campus would have that a Peace Officer does not. How will the effects relate to the diverse goals of a university community. I believe the presence of police officers would University. And police officers are simply not necessary Rather, what we lack here is an accurate statement of what need hire Campus Security to fill. They must provide that part of community control which is necessary but which we cannot provide by ourselves. I believe this is a small and vital part. Further, the type of officer we desire is one who will become part of our community, who will try to understand it and contribute to it and work within it. I do not say there are no such officers today. Certainly that is more demanding than simple enactment of police power, but that, I think, is the job we have hired Security to do. I do not categorically assert my opinions to be those of the University community at large, however, if the decision is not made by our community, then we must ask, a bit warily, for who does Campus Security work? destroy the academic environment built up by the unique sense of community created at this David Kovaka Dan Kels Barbara Medine Richard Quad E3I8 IE CLASS OF "82" Middle East strife To the Editor. The Buffalo Evening News state edition of January 19, carried a banner headline which read, “Moslems Vow Holy War in Lebanon.” The Scenario is one that considering. many modernists have avoided The Lebanon was established in 1946 by the French Colonial powers as to “safeguard” the rights of Christians. It was originally a part of Syria, and Syria has always felt that one day it should return to its former status. Being the only Christian state in the Mid-East as well as the only Arab democracy, its assumed political stability was a shining light in an Arab world of kings, dictatorships and constant Coups D’Etat. Underneath this assumed political stability there was a constant tension between Moslem and Christian that finally erupted in April of ’75 into what has been termed a civil war. The problem developed as the Moslem population grew into a majority while being given minority powers in the government. Also, after King Hussein of Jordan brutally subdued the Palestinians in the Black September of 1970, the majority of Palestinian terrorists wandered through Syria and settled in Southern Lebanon.—Both Syria and Lebanon didn’t want them, but Syria had the better military and so Lebanon was fqrced to play the compassionate i NEED A LITERATURE.

The Palestinians continued to develop their terrorist and guerilla forces to the point where Lebanese Law became inconsequential for them. The current major Christian complaint is that the government docs not control the Palestinians and hence, the Palestinians do whatever they want, often jeopardizing Lebanese integrity and security. Syria has, in the past few years, gained some political power over the PLO, the .main terrorist group. Since the fighting broke out in the Lebanon, Syria and the Soviet Union have been openly arming the Moslem and Palestinian gangs. All weapons used Moslems and Palestinians originate in Syria. Whenever Syria wants to cool the situation, it merely “turns off” the supply of arms. The Syrians are openly arming the Moslem side of the conflict. Recent developments show that several thousand Palestinian Liberation Army troops (equipped, trained and controlled by Syria) have entered the conflict from Syria and, siding with the Moslems, now control the Syrian border area, the South and parts of the North. The entire issue of conflicting Christian and Moslem Nationalism has never been explained in Western Media. There is, however, a larger problem engulfing most of the Middle East. That being the almost total intolerance on the part of the Arabs for large national minorities within the Middle East. These minorities are persecuted, as is the case with the Coptic Christians, or subjected to genocide as is the case with the Kurds of Iraq, The Black Sudanese Christians, and now the Christians of Lebanon. In order for there to be a real peace in the entire Middle East, there must be a recognition on the part of the Arab-Moslem majority that there are other peoples in the Middle East with National and Civil rights. by the Samuel M. Prince �'Equus'— a thoroughbred production by Randi Schnur Arts Editor More than any other sort of theatrical triller, the psychological drama has an incredible capacity for mystery, excitement, and horror. No crime that one body can contrive to perpetuate on another could conceivably come close to some of those that human minds have committed against itself. Peter Shaffer's play Equus (which, incidentally, earned its author both the Tony and Drama Critics' Award for Best PLay of 1974), now at the Studio Arena Theatre, centers on such a derangement, and its effect on audiences is every bit as forceful and stunning as its young psychiatric patient's disease. Seventeen-year-old Alan Strang's case is not, according to the lawyer who recommends him for treatment, "the usual unusual." Passionately fond of horses all his life it’s a pretty suspicious passion, Alan is a trusted employee at a in fact, and the plot thickens already stable, but sneaks in one night to blind all six of the horses under his care with a metal spike. Led by the hysterical stable owner, the public seems generally "revolted and immovably English;" only the barrister defending him bothers to look for some deeper motivation than juvemle delinquency, but she does manage to have him sent to the hospital where Martin Dysart is head psychiatrist. - - ' A very separate reality The subsequent search for Alan's private reality leads through the usual adolescent obstacle course of over-indulgent mother, uptight dad, seductive co-worker, and so on, and then right-past it into a terrifying dense tangle of religious and sexual symbolism. The Broadway prqduction of Equus played an interesting, and highly acclaimed, trick on audiences' expectations by casting Anthony Perkins, probably best known for his protrayal of the cinema's quintessential psychotic in Psycho, as the analyst. As the only person who realizes that Alan's bond to the horses, tough ultimately destructive on both sides, represents a far deeper passion than any of his pursuers could ever hope to know. Dr. Dysart is a sympathetic and unusually understanding character, and Perkins plays him well. As interpreted by Studio Arena's Jeremiah Sullivan, though, Dysart is often hostile when he should be helpful, grimacing instead of grave, as cunning in his own methods as he wishes his patient to be cooperative. Brandishing his ubiquitous note pad like a bludgeon, he makes it a bit too easy for us to understand why the rebellious teenage grabs it at one point and believes that he has grabbed his doctor's "power" along with it. (Sullivan, in fact, reacts as if he believes it as > well.) Greek to him The actor delivers many of the soliloquies which get across Shaffer's points as if he might be playing bad Greek tragedy to a steep in other words, ponderously, and with his words amphitheatre directed at the ceiling. But Sullivan's role is truer that his portrayal, and Dysart works in spite of his flaws. Jonathan Howard Jones' Alan is far more successful; the young actor does a sensitive and beautiful job with a role which must be as difficult to interpret as the play's mystery itself. Carol Mayo Jenkins and Jim Oyster are also excellent as the boy's parents, both Dysart can't pin any guilt on them without a refreshingly intelligent struggle! Peggy Witton's Jill Mason, the lover Alan almost has, handles with what must be a mong Buffalo s first legitimate nude scenes admirable aplomb. And the six horses, in Robert F.

Bergman has said that making this film "was the best time of my life. You can't imagine what it is like to have Mozart's music in the studio every day." One need not greatly stir the imagination. The sheer joy and delight with which the audience reacts to this work makes this clear. The Magic Flute, written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart at age 35, is considered by many to be his finest opera. The somewhat foolish plot is a mixture of the ideology of Freemasonry and political satire with comical characters in humorous interludes. The extraordinary music combines conventional operatic technique and German folk melodies. The story begins as Prince Tamino is saved from a ferocious dragon by three of the Queen of the Night's ladies. In payment, he must rescue the queen's daughter Pamina, who has been kidnapppd’and hidden in the kingdom of the wicked Sarastro. After completing this brave deed, he may then claim Pamina as his bride. Aiding him in this task are a magic flute given to him by the queen and Papageno, the silly bird catcher with his set of magical chimes. Switching sides At this point, the opera makes a twist. When the original tale was written, a play with a similar plot had just opened. The librettists, through some vague manipulations, changed the good queen into a malicious and threatening ruler and the evil Sarastro into a virtuous leader. Tamino finds Pamina and is subjected to a series of tests so Sarastro may determine if he is worthy of Pamina, and if the couple would be capable of ruling his kingdom after his death. The trials involving fire and water, the battle of light over darkness, and the eventual triumph of goodness over wickedness are symbolic of the ideologies within the philosophy of the Masons. Needless to say, good will and love win the war. The appearance of this filmed version of an opera in movie theaters across the country raises some interesting issues. Is the viewei going to the opera or going to the movies? Is the act of putting an opera on film detrimental to the operatic experience or an enlightening enhancement? In what ways are one's sensibilities to film affected of what and how the director has used his medium, in this case showing an opera? Is the film of The Magic Flute an exploration of the potential of film, or an exploitation made possible by Bergman’s name? because A question of taste There are two ways in which Bergman could have made this film. The first would have been to film the scenes in their actual settings, as in films adapted from literary works or plays, such as His Girt Friday, adapted from the play The Front Page. The second method, that which Bergman used, is a filming of a staged performance. Here again a decision must be reached. Should the director on the opera itself as it is taking place on stage, thereby making us the primary audience participating in a visual fantasy? The alternative is to present an opera and Bergman's choice environment where one is made conscious of the opera's audience and the backstage doings of the performers, which constantly remind us that we are mere observers and not the 'jexperiencers" that most films try to seduce us into believing we are. concentrate — — During the dazzling overture 1 a favorite in the concert repertoire, Bergman reveals the individuals of his international audience by cutting from one person to another, concentrating on one young girl (actually Bergman's daughter) in particular. The music is so wonderfully stunning that it seems a shame that the camera did not focus on the orchestra, the crucial point of interest. , Needless distractions From time to time, the reactions of the child to what is happening on stage is captured. Again, though, it is irritating and almost insulting to remove us from the beauty of the stage and oui own rapport with the opera experience in order to watch this stranger's reactions. Although cinematically, there are flaws and operatically, one misses the grandeur and awe of personally experiencing the human voice in such a lovely work, there are more than enough redeeming and compelling qualities to make The Magic Flute a film not to be missed. The acting and singing of the cast is brilliant. Through camera movement and close-ups, Bergman has made opera a totally approachable and comprehensible event. There is an awareness and perception of the characters made possible only because the camera can so subjectively and personally shape its reality. The set designs are exquisite, and scenes are graciously changed without closing the curtain. The opera is sung in Swedish, but the English subtitles enable the audience to follow along with the plot and understand the words in a way not usually possible. The Magic Flute, now at the Holiday 6 Theater, is gay and entertaining and, to paraphrase Bergman, you can't imagine what a joy it is to hear Mozart's music in a movie theatre. -Jacqueline Leopold Prodigal Sun Our Weekly Reader Jonathan Freedman, Crowding and Behavior, Viking, $7.95 (paperback edition published by W.H.

That is, an increase in population or to high density? If the quantitative aspect of the latter, we are lucky. "crowding" results in an increase Freedman does not provide an in the qualitative aspect of answer to this question; certainly, "crowding" but does not produce such a question is beyond the the qualitative aspect itself. And scope of this book which is this applies to a human being's involved in clarifying what have An — embodies those characteristics which the American people still seek in their heroes: They must be antisocial, amoral and inarticulate. But the cowboy is also the white American primitive, and to that extent, given our own Romantic intellectual tendencies, he represents the innocent and (pre-societal) natural state of existence toward which we all strive. Society is itself a corrupter of man; man does not corrupt himself. It is against one aspect of this intellectual paradigm that Jonathan Freedman directs our attention in his book, Crowding and Behavior, The Psychology of High Density Living, and though he doesn't debunk it, he goes a long way toward clarifying and focusing in on the specific issues. Freedman begins by delimiting the use of the word "crowding" to apply only to the quantitative notion of "high-density" rather than to the (necessarily negative) qualitative "being feeling of crowded." The problem for investigation then becomes: Does high density in and of itself lead to, say, greater aggressiveness or alienation in human beings? Is there a relationship living and crime rates, between high-density living and suicide, between high-density living and deviance? In other words, is there a between causal high-density necessary connection between the qualitative and "crowding?" The answer is a resounding "NO." quantitative of aspects Based data on from he and others have designed which control such variables as and poverty education, Freedman argues that it is not high-density, but rather large population itself which is the problem It the number of people which are forced to interact with one another on a continual basis rather than the space in which they interact which produces disorientations that, in turn, manifest themselves in aggressiveness, alienation and deviance. Freedman writes: experiments having to interact or deal large numbers of people "... with seems to have negative effects. To begin with, it is somewhat overwhelming. Too much is unpredictable, there are generally too too many faces, many possible contacts for most people to handle. The whole situation more or less gets out of hand and we feel that it is beyond our control. Whether in a playground with hundreds of children or an apartment house corridor with 30 apartments, the typical reaction is to withdraw and be defensive. There is an important difference between large numbers of people and a high density of people. A large childien playground may have with 200 a lower interaction with inanimate as well as animate objects. "Louder music, brighter light, stronger tastes, bigger pictures," Freedman writes, "are more important stimuli but are not stressors and do not generally increase arousal. Consider a painting on the wall of a room. Under most circumstances, a small painting is less important, attracts less attention, and produces a weaker response than a large painting. A person walking into a room that has two paintings, one two feet square and the other eight feet square, will almost certainly notice the latter first and respond to it more strongly. If he likes it, it will have a more positive effect on him and on the room that if he likes the small painting; if he dislikes them both, the large painting will have a more negative effect than the smaller one. Neither produces stress (unless the person really detests them), nor does either produce arousal in the usual sense of the term. Physiological tests would not find a heart beating faster or previously been obscure and vague concepts. The author is well aware of this, and the book's 135 pages are ample for his argument. One cannot help but share the author's hope that once the causal relationships are more correctly established the intellectual pessimism of finding solutions to our cities' problems will vanish.

These sections affect public access to government information, and according to some critics, constitutes a plan for censorship of the press more damaging than the infamous Alien and Sedition Act denounced by Thomas Jefferson. Shockingly, the over inclusive blanket of secrecy given to government information. if enacted in S.l could lead to, in many cases, the death penalty for such reporters as Jack Anderson. Bob Woodward. and Carl Bernstein, if their disclosures of government secrets occurred in “wartime” or “national emergency” (Sections 1121 & 2401). The press has never before been prosecuted under espionage type laws and the impact of this bill would be devastating. S.l's expansive, vague, and definitions of openended “national defense information” includes anything ”... which may be useful to the enemy.” (Section 1128) Thus, under S. I Espionage offenses (Sec. 1121) cover that only the James Bond type spies, but the publication of the “Pentagon Papers” by the N. Y. Times if they may be read in Peking or Moscow. Espionage is now a Gass A Felony with a mandatory death .sentence in a “time of war” and “national emergency” peacetime in disclosures of “sensitive” national defense information is a Gass B Felony for which the punishment is a maximum of 30 years. the bill seems a direct response to Daniel Ellsberg’s and Anthony Russo’s prosecutions for handing the Pentagon Papers over to the press and what probably would have been the government's failure to convict them if the case had not been dismissed because of misconduct. The government enacting of these provisions means the imposing of criminal penalties upon both the public official who leaks national defense information (i.e. Ellsberg and Russo) and the reporter or other person who possesses it (i.e. The Times Editors and reporters). This is absurd considering the fact that the government bureacracy is about 25 years behind in the declassifying of certain types of documents and the officially (so-called) classified national defense information is many times every day common knowledge. Considering this, and that the selective leak of classified national defense information by the government (e.g. Henry Kissinger) has become an effective public relations (propaganda) technique, this statute can only be abused. It must be enforced selectively. No doubt it will be used most often against politically unpopular causes and movements. The statute also deprives the defendant of the express right to show that his act did not harm the country’s national defense or . security. The deliberate limiting of specific intent language is seen by many to be unconstitutional since the current law was sustained (in Gorin v. U.S.) only because of the scienter But requirement. commentators also agree that with the more conservative Berger court there is no guarantee at all that this section or many of the other unconstitutional ones would be overturned. Disclosing Classified Information This section links together the of system administrative classifying documents with the espionage laws. Because of the the present law has way developed, in such cases as Ellsberg’s, the government had to prove that the disclosure of the Pentagon Papers was predjudicial to national security; either injuring the U.S.’s interest or providing an advantage to a foreign nation. If enacted, this section of S.l would solve all the legal problems the government had in securing convictions in Ellsberg type cases. Similar to Sec. 1123 there is no specific intent requirement in this statute. This section making it illegal to communicate classified information apparently requires no that the knowledge information was really classified. It requires for conviction no more than that the defendant know that he was engaged in conduct that “communicates something.” A defense is available if the person charged tried to secure declassification and had exhausted all of the sections review procedures, and the information, was not lawfully subject to classification at the time of the offense. The catch is that unless the press completely exhausts the review procedure before disclosing the information on the S.l provides that it is not a defense that the information was to not lawfully subject “ ... classification.” / The question this statute presents is: who is going to certify the certifiers?” This S.l the by allowing provision, the (instead of government courts) to decide what is and what is not lawfully subject to classification as national defense information, demands that we accept on faith a certification of Government officials themselves political appointees.

Because of the vague and broad language of this statute it seems very possible that the publication of a newspaper story revealing the thing t as such a Administration's decision to favor Pakistan in its war with India, may be a criminal offense.'

Cheating techniques, according to Johns Hopkins Dean Sigmund R. Suskind, ran the gamut from cribbing and copying during examinations to such extremes as students deliberately altering other students’ lab experiments to gain a competitive edge in class standings. No One expects that the thieves will be* caught. “Most cheating isn’t even reported,” said an Ohio State biology professor. “Students aren’t willing to turn other students in.” Part "of the problem in stopping pre-med failure in the cheating is the penalty for the crime in a especially course, a a in fail kid course. “To pre-professional school is like a sentence for life because it means they will never make it into law or medical school,” said an Ohio State know that and some even look the other way.” Although most school officials direct their attention to the almost hopeless cause of weeding out offenders, others believe cheating indicates underlying' problems in the criteria medical schools use to screen applicants. “An obsession with grade point averages is an unfortunate way to select good practitioners of medicine,” says Albert Gelhorn, director of the Center for Biomedical Education at City College of New York. In 1970, according to Gelhorn. pre-med students from several universities told him: “We cheat. We try to give wrong information to our colleagues. We sabotage chemistry experiments. Things haye gotten worse since then,” said Gelhorn. “Pre-med school is a cutthroat business.” — Flagrant cheating What I’m concerned about is the flagrant examples,” said Suskind. “Large groups working together, major cribbing, alteration of experiments, Different criteria The solution to cheating, says Gelhorn, begins theft of exams, major cooperative efforts.” Large-scale cheating is not unique to Johns with a re-examination of medical education. “We Hopkins.

THE STRON BREWERY COMPANY, DETROIT, MICHIGAN 4B23* ;1. �Buffalo Braves up for sale; owner denies a Florida deal by Pat Qulnlivaii City Editor Paul Snyder, owner of the Buffalo Braves professional basketball team since its inception in 1970, has announced that he is planning to sell the < club. V The surprise announcement came as a result of the continuing failure of the Braves and the City of Buffalo to reach agreement on a lease for the use of Memorial Auditorium. At present, the Braves are using the Auditorium without a signed lease. Early reports that the club was going to be sold to a group of Florida investors were denied by Snyder, who said that he has talked with a number of area people who are interested in buying the club and keeping it in Buffalo. The alleged Florida deal would involve the transfer of the team to a facility under construction on the campus of Florida International University in Miami. ’ Temporary home Until that building is completed, however, the unnamed investors would reportedly set up shop temporarily in Greensboro, North Carolina, where Braves’ All-Star center Bob McAdoo played his college ball. The construction of the Miami sports center, it was learned, was initiated with the stated intention of attracting a National Basketball Association franchise and a National Hockey League franchise to Miami. Miami previously had a pro basketball team, the Miami Floridians of the American Basketball Association, but the franchise folded after only a few years because of poor attendance. The Braves’ problems with the city have centered jaround the availability ,of desirable playing dates in the city-owned Aud, which the Braves must share with the Buffalo Sabres hockey team and the Canisius College basketball team. Home on Tuesdays Since the 1970-71 season, the Braves have played most of their home games on .Tuesday and Friday nights, with the Sabres occupying Thursday and Sunday nights, and Canisius filling about a Third straight dozen Saturday nights, as they have since the 1940’s. It is Snyder’s contention that this set-up puts him in direct competition with area high schools, which play most of their games on Tuesdays and Fridays. The fact that the Braves have consistently drawn larger crowds for their occasional Saturday night games (before and after Canisius’ season) lends support to Snyder’s argument. Snyder had hoped to switch a number of his club’s home games next season to Wednesday nights and Saturday afternoons, but he discovered last week that the Sabres had requested Thursday, Sunday, and Wednesday nights for the 1976-77 season. It has been subsequently pointed out in the local press that this season’s Sabres' schedule found them at home for only five Wednesday night games during the 23-week regular season. The Braves’ owner has stated that he apparently cannot negotiate with politicians, obviously referring to the members of the Buffalo Common Council, who must approve of the Braves’ Aud lease. A grain of salt In spite of the announcement by Snyder, veteran sports observers in the Buffalo area are advising city leaders to act with continued deliberation. This advice is based upon similar previous “threats” by team owners in Buffalo. Snyder himself threatened to move his Braves to Toronto several years ago. and they actually played some regular season games there, but poor attendance caused him to drop the issue. Buffalo Bills’ owner Ralph Wilson threatened, in the late I960’s. to move his football team to Seattle if Erie County did not build an 80,000-seat, football-only stadium. This was one of the factors involved in the eventual decision not to build the proposed domed stadium. Erie'County subsequently built Rich Stadium in Orchard Park, a facility which is suitable only for football and concerts. Buffalo was thus left with no stadium in which baseball could be played, effectively nullifying its chances of obtaining a major league team. Buffalorfians are certain to keep both these incicents in mind as they consider the validity and potential impact of Snyder's announcements. , S.A.

He spoke about how inflation was upsetting the economy and about how unemployment wasn't helping any. He spoke about the- continuing energy crisis and what could be done about it. But Ford also are now better. He said that in 1976, the said that the economy is turning around, and that the scandal of Watergate is now truly behind us. That’s fine for America. But what about Buffalo’s athletic woes. Last year at this time, the prospects were not good. Talk surfaced about cutting certain “small sports" from the athletic program to save money. Some people suggested cutting out all varsity sports. A virtual cold war broke Out between the factions of Clark and Norton managed to hold onfor Halls. In the another year.

The resignations of Drs. McIntyre and Fritz and Coach Jim McDonough leave gaping holes in the staff of the athletic department. These holes cannot be filled easily, and the department will suffer at least a little. However, the openings make it possible to inject some fresh blood into the athletic department at a critical time. If innovative people are selected to replace the departing faculty, the athletic department may be able to find solutions to their serious financial woes. Intramurals continues to be the one area of athletics which prospers in any environment. Over 8000 students were involved in intramurals last year, and this popularity is expected to increase. Furthermore, no student government in its right mind would seriously cut the intramurals budget, and the .state and the administration both look more favorably on intramurals than they do on intercollegiate athletics. So much for quality. What about that second may be financial turning around, but SUNY’s isn’t-THe financial state of athletics right now is ana the outlook is not much better.

The idea of a mandatory student athletic fee is around in some circles, but is hard to believe that Buffalo students would be willing logo along with such a fee. The probability of assistance from the state is virtually zero. Hell, they don’t have enough money to cut Sabres’ tickets. The only light in this sea of financial darkness is the University-Wide Committee on Athletics. This 17-person committee with members from the student body, faculty and administration has been being kicked charged with the task of finding a viable solution to the problem of athletic funding. The committee is enough to maintain hope for now. If they fail, and student funds run out, only a dramatic turnaround of the economy will be able to save athletics. But, if they succeed, athletics will be insured of having funds to operate for three, five or even ten years.

The Governor added that dormitory rents are expected to rise by $100. The Buffalo Evening News reported that the SUNY Board of Trustees would approve the increases at a meeting in February. Although the Governor’s budget has not yet reached this University, an administration spokesman speculated that whatever cuts had been made already would be included as part of those required in next year’s budget. 31 faculty President Robert Ketter had announced that fifty-eight University employees would be laid-off by February 29th. The Governor called for the elimination of 3 1 faculty positions. 40 faculty support positions and 54 other jobs. He asked that 10 of the cut faculty positions come out of the health sciences division. Four buildings at the Amherst campus are scheduled to open this, year, according to the Governor’s budget. The lour, the English and Modern Languages Building, the Administrative Services Building, the Pharmacy Building and the Commisary, will cost S738.000 to maintain, but the budget anticipates $428,000 in savings in off-campus rental space. The Governor also recommended reappropriation of S82 million for the state local share of the Buffalo-Amherst Rapid Transit System. The money has been set aside every year since 1971. The project is awaiting a federal grant to pay 87 percent of the cost. The University’s budget increased by $770,000 from last year. Without the cuts, however, it would have increased by S2.6 million. —Forrest Campus Security Proposal to change status by Fredda Cohen Campus Security heal lire h'Jitor The SUNY Board of Trustees has unanimously passed a legislative proposal to change the status of Campus Security officers from “peace officers” to police officers." - police status gives Campus Security the right to execute warrants, where a peace officer must first be deputized. A police officer can also issue The summonses and appearance tickets. More importantly, the proposal specifiees the arresting powers of Security, on and off campus. The proposal was drafted after Security officers on a Board of Trustees Campus Security Task Force complained that they did not hold enough authority within the state and city courts. The proposal claims to “remove all confusion” concerning the power of security officers, according to Student Association traffic of the State University (SASU) President Bob Kirkpatrick, a non-voting Board member. The Task Force also reported that Campus Security "May arrest without a warrant any person reasonably thought to have committed an offense in the presence of that officer.” In another development. President Robert Ketter will meet Tuesday with members of the Student Association (SA) Executive Committee to discuss student services. Student services has become controversial in recent weeks. Cavages Record Stores’ complaint against the SA Record Coop resulted in the Coop’s sates and hours being severely limited. And Ketter has cut off funds for the Sub Board student pharmacy in Michael Hall until the pharmacy license is transferred from Sub Board to the University. I lie future of student sendees has also been placed in doubt by the budget crisis in New York State. One report from Albany is that Governor Carey’s budget contains sutstantial cuts in the student affairs division of this University. There has been unsubstantiated speculation in Administration circles that the University’s entire student affairs division will be reorganized, or eliminated entirely, in the coming months. No change likely In any case, the meeting with Ketter next week is not likely to bring any improvement, but rather merely acquaint the students with Ketter's position. Meanwhile. SA officers are struggling to find the proper policy to present to Ketter while holding the line against further cuts. Police benefits Executive Vice President Albert Somit told The Spectrum that the proposal had been under consideration for over a year. He said that this University’s administration endorses the proposal and was involved in its conception, as were other administrations and security officers. Somit said the proposal “enables our Security to belong to other organizations such as the Policemen’s Benevolent Association, entitling them to certain fringe benefits, and "clears up legal ambiguities.” Student Association (SA) President Michele had mixed feelings about the proposal. “If it improves student rights. I would think it would be alright,” she said, but added, "if changing the status from the State Education Law to the State Criminal Procedure Law gives Campus Security more power than they have right now. I would worry about it, especially if it leads to arming.” If the proposal is passed as law by the New York State Legislature, the policy of arming will remain the same as it is now. Kirkpatrick said. Only the Smith Protect the peace Meeting officers— Director of Campus Security Patrick Glcnnon said Campus Security is supposed to be recognized with full police power on campus under the education Law, but their authority is constantly challenged in court. Giennon claimed Campus Security has the right to “judicial recognition, rather than fighting for it every time we go to court.” Kirkpatrick firmly opposed the proposal during Board meetings. “I think it is absolutely ridiculous and unnecessary,” he said, claiming, “what we need is someone who will protect the peace of the students.” The proposal itself is ineffective as it stands but the 15-member Board is hoping to have it passed by the state legislature sometime later this year. In order to do so, it must be sponsored by someone in both the state assembly and senate. The proposal will probably be introduced through the Governor’s office, but it must be passed by the Committee on Higher Education before it reaches the entire legislature. If the bill is passed, the powers of Campus Security would change from the ones specified in the State Education Law to those in the Slate Criminal Procedure Law now, president of the university or college can legally Judicial recognition The SASU Executive Committee will make the decision whether or not to allow Security officers to carry firearms on campus. Currently. Security officers on this campus may not carry weapons. Independent of this proposal. New York State Senator Schermerhom, a Republican C onservative from New Paltz. introduced a bill last year calling for the mandatory arming of Campus Security officers on all SUNY campuses. The bill is still in the Committee on Higher Education. SASlf legislative directors said they will lobby against it. SASU member Joel Packer explained. "We don’t feel that a need exists on every campus.” The policy of arming has long been a concern of students and administration at this University. In December 1972, the Student Association held a referendum to determine how undergraduate students regarded the issue of selective arming of Campus Security officers By a 2 to I margin, students voted against any form of arming. Continual demonstrations on campus that year and the following year may have influenced President Robert Keller's decision to prohibit arming on campus. meet 7 to make a decision concerning the proposal Kirkpatrick pledges his opposition. If the proposal is opposed by others, SASU will lobby to kill the bill before it gets out of the Committee on February Higher F.djucation. “It creates many .complications which do not exist under the Education Law,” complained Kirkpatrick. He believes that any confusion over officers’ powers could be rectified simply by amending the present law. He fears that this new change of status could alter the self perceptions of �Senate Bill 1 Nixon’s own idea of law and order Editor's mote In fitt months ahead. you'll be hearing more mtd more about the Senate MB No I /£/./ This is the first m sereral articles by the Buffdo Student Chapter of the Nmtiomtl Lawyer's which attempt to define the bill mtd ham it mV effect different poops of people.

Thus, at this time, much of what was progressive in the Brown Commission's approach to criminal law was killed by the conservative leadership of the subcommittee. - — New and old A version of the proposed criminal code was introduced in January 1974 by Senator McClellan This bill of the 93rd Congress was also called S.l, but should not be confused with the bill S.l of the present 94th Congress. President Nixon disagreed with both the Brown Commission and the dissenting senators. He wanted to “refine” the work of the Brown Commission to combat what he called in his 1973 State of the Union message “the growing sense of permissiveness in America.” Nixon called upon Attorney General John Mitchell The Spectrum a published Monday.

Nixon and his followers substituted a rigid, punitive, if not vengeful approach toward crime and punishment. The rewriting was finished and the administration bill S.1400 was sent to the 93rd Congress with Senator Hruska’s sponsorship on March 27, 1973. Most of S.1400’s provisions are largely identical with those contained in the present S.l and H.R.3907 (the House version of the bill). The old S.l bill and particularly the S.1400 provoked considerable criticism in extensive hearings held in 1974 to consolidate the two bills. Because of opposition, these two bills were held up in committee. During the hearings Mary Ellen Gale of the American Civil Liberties Union described the old S.l bill and especially the S.1400 (similar to the present S.l bill) as a “grave threat to civil liberties.” She testified in August 1974 that “both bills would misdirect government efforts at law enforcement away from violent and serious offenses committed by individuals against other individuals focusing instead on apprehension and punishment of those who displease government officials.” at Buffalo, New York.

Buckley (C., N Y,). In a letter sent to campuses across the state, Buckley asserts that, “To my mind, the.use of food stamps by college students constitutes exploitation of the other young Americans of that age who are at work.” Buckley, a co-sponsor of the National Food Stamp Reform Act, says he is puzzled at the attitude of college students around the country on this issue, since food stamp reform concerns students directly, “not only as taxpayers, but also as the inheritors of whatever future is to be shaped by today’s public policy .” According to Buckley there is no reason for any student to receive food stamps, unless the student comes from a poor family which receives the stamps. Food stamps were intended, he says, as a form of public assistance, which would supplement ihe diets of the needy, and not as a program to feed young people who have decided to further their education. The decision to attend college, Buckley says, “is in the best American tradition of self-improvement,” but the student must accept the responsibilities that go along with attending college, including self-support. Buckley points to Madison, Wisconsin as an example of food stamp abuse. One year ago, 65 percent of the food stamp recipients in Madison were students. Beyond this particular issue, however, Buckley feels that what is really at stake is the credibility of student idealism. He notes the distortion of the political system as it now exists, due to the power wielded by special interests and pressure groups, and calls upon students to speak out. “Sooner or later, every young American must decide whether to play this, sordid game by its present rules of getting and grabbing or to change it through principled advocacy of what is right, rather than what happens to be personally profitable,” he asserts. NYPIRG works for pot decriminalization Strategies to achieve marijuana decriminalization in New York this year will be the subject of a statewide conference at SUNY-Albany this weekend by the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG). NYPIRG has favored decriminalization of possession of less than two ounces of the substance since October of 1975, also favors changing the definition of “sale” of marijuana so as to exclude those who are not actually engaged in trafficking. Restricted parking violated future, the officers would be “re-indoctrinated.” of the abandoned car was denied, Concern over Campus Security’s failure to enforce restricted parking in lots designated for the handicapped has been expressed by legitimate users of the special facilities. Gerda Klingman, a handicapped faculty member of the Biochemistry Department, claimed that she has repeatedly found these spots occupied by unauthorized cars. In one case, she said, an unauthorized car sat in an area designated for the handicapped for more than a week before Campus Security towed it away. She charged that Security officers in the lot refused to do anything about the car when Klingman brought it to their attention, replying that it wasn’t their “assignment.” Any knowledge but the spokesman stated that it*”night have occured during mid-session when enforcement was minimal. He agreed that the problem is a serious one, and is due in part to the possession of illegal special handicapped parking stickers by unauthorized these areas is persons. He claimi “of top priority” U ots for every There are only iccording to 90 handicapped pei office of Robert Hunt, hi ;h designates Environmental Heal these areas. He said discrepency is due to the absence of any additional convenient spots to place them. Hunt added that he is involved in an ad hoc committee to study thp problems of the handicapped on campus, and that the Committee includes one member specializing in the problems of parking for them on the Amherst campus. Top priority A 'spokesman for Campus Security pointed out that the officers might have been on special assignment at the time. He pledged that if any specific complaints of this nature are received in the •ft. \Today miscal- •• Raid spurs action According to Brooklyn College NYPIRG head Richard Golden, NYPIRG decided to work for decriminalization after a recent drug raid at Syracuse University in which nearly 70 students were arrested, and which came from infiltration of the student body by informers. “For most of these students, this arrest will be their first and only (criminal) offense,” said Golden. Bob Voorhis of the NYPIRG Syracuse office said that while hopes for decriminalization this year were raised when Governor Carey supported the move in his State of The State Address earlier this month, the fact that mail reaching the Governor has run 80-1 against the proposal indicates that there is much work to be done. Thus, said Voorhis, the conference will focus on letter-writing and petition drives that NYPIRG hopes to organize in favor of decriminalization. Several Bills Recording to Golden, NYP1RG expects several decriminalization bills to be introduced this session in both houses, and the group is using a full-time intern to lobby for the most comprehensive bill that is introduced. A marijuana decriminalization measure was introduced last year in the Assembly but never came to a vote. A companion measure introduced in the more conservative State Senate never reached the full Senate, remaining bottled up in committee. Target state New York will also be the scene for a lobbying effort this year from the National Organization for Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), which has named New York one of thirteen “Target States for 1976.” In addition, NORML is planning court action against the current New York marijuana laws. NORML has spearheaded successful decriminalization drives in Oregon, Alaska, Maine, California, Colorado and Ohio. Oregon decriminalized marijuana possession in 1973, the first state to do so, and was followed by the other five states during the past year. % \ Assembly Meeting M, % Take out the worry with the SR-51 A.

The SA Assembly originated this idea last year. j<, According to Cohen, many members of the Student Assembly last year felt that more than one person should have a say in the administration of an organization with a budget the size of the Speakers Bureau’s. As a result of the Assembly’s movc to democratize the Speakers Bureau, the amount of people involved in actual decision-making has been increased from one to eight. “This year’s committee setup is far better than last year bepause we receive a far more diverse input,” stated Cohen. “Politically, the speakers have often been left of center. This is because the Speakers Bureau has considered the nature of student preferences at this University to be left of center,” he added. “This year’s Speakers Bureau “Star” speakers The Speakers Bureau is attempting to obtain more money from the SA Financial Assembly this semester.

Cohen warned that this semester money might not be as easily available for special interest group programs. for the majority of students, major speakers with a broad base in both the popular and an academic nature were engaged. These speakers included Dick Gregory, Jimmy Breslin, Bella Abzug and l.F.

Feature Editor Neff admitted that theje arc at least some committed against students during the semester and even during the brealtSwhich are not reported to police because they are drug-related. Often these crimes are committed by students Four break-ins were reported to police at the 16th Precinct by students whose empty houses were robbed during the winter recess. According to Desk Lieutenant Neff of the 16th, at Bailey Avenue and Collingswood, the holiday season was quiet in terms of residential break-ins, but the number of shoplifting incidents and cars broken into rose dramatically. This was confirmed by All-State Insurance salesman Bill Powers, who noted that the number of packages reported stolen from cats increases every holiday season. The 16th Precinct is the largest precinct in Buffalo, with an estimated population of 65,150 people. Together with the 17th Precinct, which has a population of 46,200, it compromises over one quarter of the total population of Buffalo. However, Lieutenant Neff said it is virtually impossible to determine the number of students living in these areas, which run from Bailey Avenue to Delaware Park. Consequently, it is very difficult to determine which reported crimes are committed against students. crimes themselves. “A student would have to be a real fool to report drugs taken from his house,” Neff remarked with a smile. The 16th precinct aids SUNY Buffalo Campus All items of value have been marked for ready identification by law enforcement agencies Crime reports confidential Student arrested for sending false alarm Forrest An Ellicott Complex resident has been arrested for allegedly sending a false fire alarm, according to Red Jacket Quad Head Residents Carol Dozier and Furrokh Kamdin. The student, whose name has not been divulged, will be arraigned iri Amherst Town Court in the near future on charges of “false reporting of an incident,” a Class B misdemeanor. The two head residents are also recommending that the student be dismissed from the dorms, and Kamdin believes the Housing Office supports this position. The student will be brought up before the Cortimission on Campus Discruptions rather than the Inter-Residence Judiciary because of the “proven ineffectiveness” of the latter body, according to the two head residents. Red Jacket Quad has been the victim of a disproportionate number the past semester of false fire alarms since its opening, and suffered at least one a week on the average and sometimes as many as five in a night, according to Housing spokesmen. There is no indication, however, that the arrested student was connected to any of the other false alarms, and he denies involvement. An example Dozier said that while she would rather not saddle someone with a criminal record, false alarms are dangerous as well as a nuisance, and hopefully, “making an example” of the first person caught pulling a false alarm in Red Jacket will discourage the practice. Kamdin added that the danger of false alarms in Ellicott is heightened because Resident Assistants and even Head Residents don’t have passkeys or keys to each room. Since there have been so many false alarms, he said, some students stay in their rooms and ignore a fire alarm. This could be highly dangerous if an actual fire were to occur because there would be no way of knowing if there were students left in the burning building. There is presently only one master key for the entire Ellicott Complex, according to a Resident Assistance in Red Jacket, which is kept in the Housing’s Area Office during the day and is given to the Resident Assistant on duty at night. Apathy Regarding the criminal charges against the student, Kamdin stated, “We want to make an example so students don’t consider fire alarms a joke anymore. In other words, the apathy and the indifference that has set in amongst the students must be removed.” When questioned about the prevalence of false firm alarms in Red Jacket, Kamdin said that there is no pattern of time or days when false alarms are sent, although there have been several pulled after or during Friday night parties. There is no pattern of where they are pulled around the quad, he said, except that the alarms by outside doors tend to be pulled more often, apparently since there is a readily available exit for the perpetrator. Although crime reports are strictly confidential and therefore not open to the press, some information about break-ins during the vacation has been made available. The back door of a house on LeBrun was Sponsored by apparently' pried open with a crowbar and two typewriters and a guitar were taken. The thieves, thought by police to be two 14-year-olds from the neighborhood, broke open bedroom doors in the house and scattered personal belongings, but did not find an attic room containing a stereo set, two television sets and a set of golf clubs. Students on Sanford were robbed of a small stereo and one student’s collection of record albums. The value of the stolen items was estimated at S 100. A student house on Heath was reportedly robbed of a stereo valued at S1500 and an album collection worth over $1000. There was no sign of breaking and entering at the premises, and residents there have deemed it an inside job. “It i? hard to say who in general commits most break-ins of what they are looking for,” said Neff. “Most thieves look for stereo equipment in student houses, but many juvenile thieves take motors from snowblowers and other machinery to build minibikes and the like,” he continued.

It’s late Sunday night and after those long hours of driving, all you can think about is falling asleep in your bed.

Perhaps the dorms-Zshould have opened Sunday (two days in advance) to accommodate some of the students' needs,” said Steve Kessler, Head Resident for Clinton Hall. Other schools in the SUNY system allow students more time between moving back into the dorms and the first day of classes. Binghamton opened its dorms five days before classes began. Albany opened three days before, as did Stony Brook and Buffalo State, while Geneseo opened two days in advance. This was an occurrence that happened to many students residing in the University dormitories last week, when school reopened for the spring semester. The fact that the dorms officially opened at 9 a.m. Monday morning while classes began 23 hours later was an inconvenience felt by many of the staff and students who traveled long distances to reach school. A spokesperson for University Housing cites two reasons for scheduling the dorms to open less than Faced with the painful reality that budget cuts continue to plague -one day before classes began.

EPA’s proposal of the guidelines came in response to a 1974 suit brought against it by the Natural Resources Defense Council, Environmental and the Sierra Club. They have maintained the Environmental Protection Agency is required to issue such guidelines as part of its responsibility under the 1970 Resource Recovery Act to issue guidelines for “solid waste recovery, collection, separation and disposal systems.” Opponents of the guidelines continue to challenge the legality of the guidelines, although both the Justice Department and the EPA believe that they Action that are legal. Throughout the “returnable” controversy, have supported a nationwide return to the returnable a national way of life less as an important approach to than 20 years ago environmentalists - — resource conservation. In congressionally-invited 1974, the National Wildlife Federation spoke for eight environmental and public interest organizations when Executive Vice President Thomas L.

If the guidelines are fully implemented, the agency believes that they will reduce beverage container wastes at federal facilities by 65 percent and save the government about S2 million a year in disposal and collection costs. Federal facilities now account for only about two to four percent of the beverage container wastes generates nationally. But the political battle that has accompanied the development of the guidelines indicates that they are expected to have far greater significance than the numbers suggest. For the past three years. Congress has considered legislation deposits which would establish mandatory nationwide.

Opponents of the mandatory deposit such as the National Brewers Association, the Glass Containers Manufacturers Institute, and the Glass Bottles Blowers Association have argued that the switch back to returnable containers would have serious effects on employment and the economy. Returnable bottle advocates have contended that more jobs will be gained than lost under a mandatory deposit system while jobs will only be if the industry continues to produce more throwaways which are energy intensive but not labor lost intensive. Both sides have marshalled reports and counter-reports to support their arguments.

While memos circulate through the inside channels of Hayes Hall, while Vice Presidents meet secretly in conference rooms to decide the fate of educational programs or students services, the people who are most directly affected by this "top secret" information haven't the vaguest idea as to what is the state of affairs on campus today. Unfortunately, one of the worst offenders is President Robert Ketter, who seems to thrive on keeping students in the dark. Ketter, who wields more power than any individual at this University and who is ultimately responsible for any administrative decisions that are passed down, is virtually inaccessible to anyone outside his office staff and his immediate advisors. Communicating via memorandums and Vice Presidents, and rarely granting an interview with concerned student groups, Ketter's own brand of Hayes Hall diplomacy means avoiding confrontation at all costs. Since he took a one month sabbatical leave this past summer, Ketter has become the mystery man of the State University system. He makes crucial decisions without informing the parties involved and then either leaves town or retreats to his chambers, shielded by the most protective group of secretaries imaginable. Typical was the way in which he handled the pharmacy issue, directing one of his Vice Presidents not to process any more requests for expenditures without officially notifying Sub Board. It was only through complaints from drug companies that they weren't getting paid did Sub Board even become aware of the situation. And now spokespersons for the pharmacy report that Ketter will not meet with them until the license is transferred to the University. Acting with all the finesse of a guerilla warrior, he attacks when defenses are down, often during exam weeks or extended vacations. Last summer, for example, after suspending five students arrested during the April 25 sit in at Hayes Hall, he took his leave without explaining his decision publicly. Members of Women's Studies College found it nearly impossible to arrange a meeting with Ketter last semester and NYPIRG leaders are experiencing similar difficulties in getting him to discuss the delay in finalizing their contract with the Student Association (details in Friday's issue). With additional layoffs announced, further budget cuts pending, and the very existence of student services threatened, it is imperative that we have a President who is accountable for what goes on here. Student leaders complain he won't talk to them and as for the other students, most have never seen his face. It would not hurt his relations with the rest of the University to include them in his decisions and even to address the student body publicly on occasion. As the Yellow Submarine is sinking, we wonder who is really minding the ship.

And I blame it on T.V. sit on the It started with Purina Cat Chow those cats All commercials. why made me wonder “chow-chow-chow”-ing Oh, couldn’t dance. realize that when I McTavish I feed him he trips me by running between my feet, but all he needed was enough encouragement. I put him on a chair and after getting his attention 1 broke into a soft shoe. He stared at me for a moment, then he ran under the couch. Too complicated, I thought, so I tried some ot the “chow-chow-chow” steps, instead. To give him a belter feel of the steps I moved his paws around and he bit me. This went on for 40 minutes and I was getting nowhere, not even a shuffle. Music wasn’t any help, either. Neither was the Arthur Murray studio: they never even heard of the chow-chow-chow. McTavish would just have to be a wall flower. I should have kept the cocker spaniel; at least dogs chase sticks. McTavish clawed up a roll of toilet paper once, but it’s just not the same. Things settled down for a while until Meow Mix advertised with a singing cat. The English subtitles proclaimed, “I want chicken. 1 want liver. I want tuna. Please deliver.” Not an aria from Carmen, mind you. and the cat in the commercials looks stoned on hard drugs, yet it's more than McTavish would do. And thus began the singing lessons. To provide the proper stimulus, I withheld food. McTavish is no Fred Astaire, but anyone can sing, even off-key. At dinner time, I held his dish in my hands. “Sing for your supper.” I flatly declared. He responded with a muffled plea. “Not good enough,” I shouted, “Eight bars or no food!” He ran under the couch. I tried working with him there, singing the commercial in his native tongue. I’m not sure if I got the accent right. No matter, it brought forth no song. Instead, McTavish peered out of the darkness at me, wondering why I had gone crazy. The neighbors got wind of what was going on and threatened to report me to the SPCA. I finally faced the fact that I have a no-talent cat and left him to continue his carefree existence, drinking from the toilet and swining on the curtains. Ralston Purina received a letter from me complaining of their advertising techniques and they responded with an apology and a coupon for Tender Vittles. It won’t erase the emotional scars left behind, but like I told McTavish, war is hell. Do-nothing Senate To the Editor However, not all of the blame rests with the substantial portion of it stems from some of the members of the Executive Committee. In the course of their normal business, the Senate is largely ignored. Referral of an Executive Committee proposal is not an obvious step in the protess of getting things done in 205 Norton. Referral must be Senators. A I feel Ihul it is my obligation as Student Senator and defender of the current SA constitution, (passed last January), to note the failure of this system of government during the fall semester. The system has failed for a number of reasons. The system relies upon the strong commitment of a large number of students working through the Task Forces and Student Senate; it also relies upon a feeling of mutual trust and cooperation between the branches of the Student Association, and an equal distribution of power between those branches. Unfortunately, neither has occurred. Attendance at most Task Force meetings has been inconsistent. Task Force meetings have not been heavily publicized, save for a short period at the beginning of |ast semester. The student body rarely knows what meetings are taking place. The Student Senate has not dealt effectively with any substantive issues it hasn’t dealt with any issues at all, despite a message from the chairperson of the Senate that the Senators should congratulate themselves for their performance in the fall. The predominant emotion expressed at Student Senate meetings was, “L et’s get the hell out of here,” if the Senators showed up to the meetings at all. Any attempts at shifting power from the Hxecutive Branch to the Senate, in order for the two to be equal in power, failed, because, although an overwhelming majority of voting Senators favored the action, the Hxecutive Committee did not, of course, and there were not enough Senators present to reach the absolute 3/5 necessary for amendments. Because of the shoddy and non-professional representation of some Senators, students have less control than ever over the SA. - proposed forcefully in order for it to occur; in the meantime, the Executive Committee passes legislation in the absence of the Senate mainly due to the fact that the Senate has met five times this year. This lack of meetings, though explained by the Executive Committee as leaving more time for Task Force work (of which there has been very little), is beneficial for the people in 205, because between meetings they are responsible to no one but C Again, this is not to say that the Senators are without blame. Many want nothing more than an activity to pul on med, dent and law school applications. Others cannot pul in the time necessary themselves. because of other extracurricular commitments. The only way to make sure that your Senators and elected officials are representing yon is for you to show up at these meetings. The prevention of elitism is of utmost importance. You can try to slop it by showing up at meetings and getting involved. Don’t get off by people saying that it's loo pul complicated to explain the situation, and that you should trust them. Make SA let you gel involved, but if you don’t get involved don’t complain. The next important meeting is Wednesday, January 2 1. in the Fillmore Room, about budgets. Ben Hluck Renegade member o) the S. A. Senate Finance Committee Education denied Editor's note: The following letter was sent to University President Robert Keller in December and was signed by 25 area high school students. We the undersigned want to indicate our strong feelings on a matter of importance to high school students. It makes no sense to us to he curtailing admissions to higher education programs at time when, especially for teenagers without a trade or few jobs are available. We profession, very understand that SUNY Buffalo will admit no new students in January 1976. It appears that you will admit fewer students than usual next fall. Yet SUNY Buffalo is the only school in western New York that offers certain programs, engineering for instance. Therefore, we as New York State residents are being denied the opportunity to study in certain fields entirely. Why? We sincerely hope you will make every possible effort to correct this situation which is so important to our future. �APRIL IQ m.pictep iSk^r adp kb I.

We. the Students who reside at Governor, are being tremendously persecuted against with regard to the busing situation. For example, every morning perhaps 100 students are standing out by the bus stop who have 10 a.m. classes. The 9:25 bus comes loaded to the door and squeezes in perhaps five students. Then the 9:30 bus comes fully packed and drives right by without stopping. Next the 9:40 bus comes and the driver lets off a few students but won’t let any on because he’s fully packed also. But what the hell should WE, as students here, trying to obtain our education do? Another bus doesn’t come until 10:00 which would make most of us a half hour late. WE are over 800 students strong here and refuse to put up with this bullshit. What happened to our buses, the ones that left from Governors and went to only Governors. I look around at the people still standing out in the cold 5 degree weather and see enraged faces. Must we do something drastic such as hijack an almost empty Ridge Lea bus which comes as frequently as the Main St. bus. The answer sadly, may have to be yes. It seems the only way to get reform around here is by active resistance. Bring back the old Bluebird buses. They were more comfortable, fit more per bus. and were better suited for University use than any of these buses now in use. 1 call upon the students of Governors to do something, not just sit back and watch all of us get screwed.

There were some gross errors in the article by Thud Kbmorowski, which appeared in a December issue of The Spectrum, including some misquotes of remarks attributed to our staff, which should be brought to the attention of your readers. Lake Erie is the most polluted of the Great Lakes. Industrial wastes have been abated but the task of cleaning up the undesirable discharges from all the factories has not been completed. Undesirable levels of phosphates, oils and mercury are still found in parts of the lake. However, the quantity of these pollutants have been reduced. The discharges from the Buffalo Sewer Authority never impacted Lake Erie since they go To the Editor. We are dismayed at the current bus service between the Main and Amherst campuses. Since the beginning of the spring semester, conditions have been positively abhorrent. The buses are continually late and crowded. Students, after having waited in the cold for as long as an hour, are not assured of getting a place on the bu$ when it does dome. Is this due to poor planning/ inept drivers, or simply a shortage of buses? One(Tfti£g is certain, the service has severely deterioratiecTsmce last semester, and it is not due to the increase of students. The new bus companies have supplied us with smaller yellow buses, which are insufficient. These buses are overcrowded, and present safety hazards to standing passengers. The yellow buses have only one exit, as compared to the Bluebird’s two. This slows down service, as well as making it very dangerous.

The new BSA facility, which For foreign films To the Editor UUAB Regarding the current Suh Board I Film Committee controversy over Suh Board's banning of eight foreign films from the weekend film series, I would like to respond to what 1 term the Top 40's mentality of Messieurs Tom Van Nortwick and Art Lalonde. It seems that both of them have this idea that they atone know the tastes of students. What they argue, in effect, is that tired, old anti-intellectual and unusual for a anti-art argument (somewhat University environment) that any foreign film is, in fact, “artsy" and, therefore, not “entertaining." In other words, we are to choose yaw’s over Swept A way and The llindenburg over Mizoguchi’s Tales of the Tiara Clan. What Van Nortwick and Lalonde ignore, first of all, is (dare I say it?) that students have the right to see films that local theaters do not show because of their “foreignness.” Hence, “foreignness" is equaled with “unprofitability." But there is a deeper and. ultimately more frightening implication, namely that the voices ot a few in the name of a tyranny of the "silent majority" (those who, for various reasons, did not join the Film Committee to change their scFcalled "heretical" policies) will dictate the oflieiallastc ol students. I personally have nothing against “popular" or what I term “Top 40's” film. Most ol the classic Hollywood product between 1930 and I960 (which I, as a cinephile, love dearly) is essentially “popular” and "entertaining" in nature. But to tell us that we should not have the opportunity of “enjoying" eight films (out of a total both weekend and weeknight of over 150 list films!) because a few ignorant people in high places deem them “not popular enough” and think that they alone have the ultimate knowledge and wisdom to judge what is good for us smacks as nothing less than benign dictatorship, something which I will not sit idly by and quietly allow to happen at this University.

Staff Writer Spectrum The Buffalo hockey Bulls won their first home game of the season last Saturday night, by defeating the Hamilton College Continentals 5-4 at the Tonawanda Sports Center. The victory give* the Bulk a 4-2-1 record in Division II competition, and increases their chances for a playoff berth. Heavy offensive pressure by both teams, and some solid netminding by Buffalo goalie Johnny Moore highlighted the game. Moore made 42 saves in the contest, and performed brilliantly when the folk were two men down at the start of the second period. Ray Gruarin opened the game's soaring at S:I7 of the first period, when right winger Bill Busch hit him with a pass in front of the Hamilton net and lifted a high riser past Hamilton goalie Shawn George. Nearly two minutes later. newcomer Rick Costello added to the Buffalo lead, tipping a Paul Son gw slapshot into the cage. For Costello, it was his seventh goal in ax gamesat a Bull, and he appears to have taken Chris Boon's right wing position on the team's first hoc. Hampered by injuries all season. Boon just returned from a leg injury, which sidelined him for six games. According to coach EdWright, Bonn is being worked into the lineup slowly, giving him as much ice time as possible. “Chris is a fine hockey player, and Pm sure that well find some place for him on the team,” said the Buffalo coach regarding Bonn's status. “Ms pby tonight is indicative of has value to the team." Bonn served as a penalty killer during the contest, and did the job well, stifling all five Hamilton power play attempts. jumped to a 2-0 lead, the Continentals tied the score, tallying twice within three minutes. Tom Griffith scored first for Hamilton, when his 15-foot wrist shot ricocheted off Moore's pod high into the net, bringing the Continentals within one goal. They tied the score at 12:35 when Hamilton center Len Thomas scored a shorthanded goal. He beat the Buffalo point men to a loose puck on the left boards, and skated down ice toward the Bulls’ net. Rather than taking a shot from a far angle, Thomas cut behind the goal, and tucked the puck past Moore, who was stranded on the far side of the net. It appeared that once again, the Bulls were going to blow their lead, and subsequently another game, except that Eddie Patterson scored at 18:21, to give Buffalo a 3-2 edge after one. Moore Arnes The second period was less than three minutes old, when referee Dave Principe called the Bulls for twin minor penalties, giving Hamilton a two-man advantage for nearly a minute and a half. With Mark Caruana in the box for holding, and Tony Scaring) in for elbowing, the Continentals swarmed around the Buffalo net, firing eight shots on goal. Moore kicked, blocked, or caught every one of them, including a spectacular stick save on a point blank slapper. The period remained scoreless until 17:48, when co-captain Rick Wolstenhoime flipped one in, followed about a minute later by Tony Scaringi’s goal, which proved to be the winner. Scaring) sent a 25-foot wrist shot behind George, after Bill Busch’s blast caromed off the far post. Unfortunately for Buffalo fans though, this hockey game as all others, runs for sixty minutes, and the Bulls were only prepared to pby for forty. The Continentals scored in the final ' time ran out for them. “For two periods we were skating, and then we fell into our usual pattern of going to sleep,” commented Wright. “For some reason they feel that they only have to play for forty minutes.” did get a sixty-minute performance from goalie Moore, who came up with some fine stops in the game’s closing minutes. “John made some big saves in the third period. I’m not too happy with the two goals, but as long as he keeps making those key saves, I’m satisfied,” said Wright. In addition to Moore's staunch effort, the Caruana brothers, Mike and Mark played well together, each getting two assists. Mark, filling in for a “semi-injured” Fred Sutton played an aggressive game, and teamed well with his brother. “Mark is coming along very well,” stated the Buffalo coach. “He likes to Addle around, like his brother does, but he’s learning.” In order for the Bulls to win their next home game against New England College (Friday night, 7:30 pjn.), the entire team will have to learn that hockey is a three-period game, and that you can’t play for only two of them. The hockey Bulls defeated Hamilton 5-4, last Saturday night at the Tonawanda Sports Center. Buffalo was led by defenseman Mike Caruana, above, and his kid brother Mark. The two back lines contributed four assists and played solid defense as the Bulls protected their lead in the third period, something Buffalo has been unable to do in many past contests.

I’ve got 25 bucks on Pittsburgh, giving 6'A- points, and they’re losing 10-7. Roy Gerela, the Steeler placekicker has just missed a 36 yard attempt at the close of the half that should have tied the game. He’s a strong contender for my Least Favorite Football Player of the 1975-76 season.

With the score 7-0,1 was 131i points. actually down Pittsburgh came right back and rammed the down the Cowboys’ throat in convincing style, behind a strong running game that was cdmpl&nented by a circus grab by Lynn Swann. The Steelers’ established running game, and the performance of the “injured” Lynn Swann were two very promising signs. I felt quite confident at this point and predicted to my roommate that Dallas wouldn’t score another point. I wished 1 could find someone else to bet more with. and the score hasn’t changed.

My prayers are answered as Mike Wagner intercepts another Staubach pass and returns it to the Dallas 7 yard line. I watch each of the three replays and yell, “Go, Go, Go,” to Wagner, hoping that rfiaybe one time he’ll take it into the endzone. Well, he never does, and much to my dismay, neither does the Pitt offense.

The same team which destroyed Central Michigan 95-77 on January 12 dropped a 76-68 decision to Colgate Friday night and then played, at best, a mediocre game on Saturday but beat Albany 63-62. Buffalo, now 5-8, looked as if they would be run off the court by Central Michigan during most of the first half. The Bulls kept missing their defensive, assignments, letting the Chippewas cash in on many open jump shots to build a 40-27 lead. Richardson then implemented a full-court press for the first time this year. Central Michigan couldn’t cope with it and Jekyll turned to Hyde as Buffalo outscored Central Michigan 47-9 to coast to the victory. Sam Pellom, the nation’s leading rebounder as well as the Bulls’ leading scorer, dropped in 23 points, including 11 of 13 from the.'floor, tops for Buffalo. Similar, in reverse The pattern was similar when the Bulls took on Colgate at the Aud, except for one important detail. This time Buffalo took the early lead, 24-12, with ten mirtutes gone in the first half, thanks again to the full court press. Then, the Bulls “pulled a Central Michigan” and were outscored 25-5 to end the half. The culprit was the Bulls’ full-court press, which failed completely, allowing the Red Raiders to score nine easy lay-ups during their 25-5 spree. “We didn’t work,” said Richardson. “Our minds weren’t there. Our kids want somebody to give them something. They oan’t stand the prosperity.” Richardson was also unhappy because Buffalo began forcing their shots instead of working for open Ones as they had done ih.building their early lead. Senior guard Otis H6rne came off the bench to score eighteen of his 20 points in the seepnd half for Buffalo, but the Bulls never really threatened the Red Raiders’ lead. 0 Israel—I—Hear ■ For gems from the JEWISH BIBLE Phone 875-4265 > i. i The pattern of blowing big leads was almost repeated against Albany. Buffalo built a thirteen-point lead and then saw it vanish in the last six minutes of the first half while Richardson was resting hi$ regulars. “We played last night [the and I had to use our subs,” Colgate Richardson explained. “Help fipm the bench is important, but we haven’t''b£en playing our subs much.” Exciting finish With Albany ahead by one at the start of the second half, Buffalo’s starting five returned and slowly built a ten-point advantage, thanks in part to Gary Domzalski’s hot outside shooting. Pellom then committed his fourth foul and had to sit down. This allowed Barry Cavanaugh, the Albany center, to pour in 14 second half points and bring the Great Danes back. The game seesawed until the last minute, giving Clark Hall’s most enthusiastic crowd in more than two years an exciting show. With Buffalo up by one with less than 15 seconds remaining, Albany’s Gary Trevett missed a lay-up. Horne rebounded and was fouled with nine seconds to go. He hit his two freethrows to put Buffalo up by three. Brian Barker of Albany then was fouled just fractions of a second before the buzzer sounded, igniting a controversy as to whether or not any time remained. The officials ruled there was no time left, a decision which enraged the Great Danes, since that meant Barker could not intentionally miss his second free throw in hopes of a tip-in. (Barker hit both to close the final margin to one point.) Later, Albany coach Dick Sauers admitted the officials were correct although one Albany fan already had accused timer Ed Muto of being bribed. After the game, Richardson said his subs still needed to be integrated into the line-up better, and that he was working on it in practice. “When you have ten men so that it doesn’t mattter who’s in there, you have a good team,” he said. As for the attitude change which seemingly the turnabout against Colgate, Richardson frustratedly admitted he doesn’t know what he can do about it even though it has been a season-long problem. Otis Horne was lh« basketball Bulls' leading scorer last year, averaging over 17 points a game. This year, however, Horne was relegated to the bench by two junior college transfers. Otis, the team's co-captain, didn't seem to mind it last week as he scored 16 points in fifteen and a half minutes against Central Michigan last Monday. He stayed hot against Colgate on Saturday with 20 points, again in a reserve role. That earned him a starting berth for the first time this year, and Hofhe's team leading 13 points against Albany on Saturday night earned him The Spectrum's Athlete of the Week Award. -Spanish, Italian > & Portuguese- . • 1 by Paige Miller Confirmation of Department Schedule Spanish 319 — "The Golden Age Drama” ............................................... . will be given 2:30—3:20 MWF Fillmore 351 \ Dr. C.

It is important to realize that businesses big and little carry out their tasks in a vital atmosphere of jn/erdcpendcncc. Small businesses, for example, would be much less prosperous without the tools, raw materials, finished and semi-finished products they purchase from big firms. As Leo McDonough, executive vice president of the Smaller Manufacturers Council (comprising 575 companies), says, “If there weren’t a U.S. Steel or a Jones Laughlin spitting out fantastic amounts of steel and keeping prices down, our basic-materials costs would be out of reach.” But big companies need little companies, too. In a typical year, 3M Co. uses products and services from more than 30,000 small businesses—such as Gopher Electronics Co., in Minneapolis, and Calumet Screw Machine Co., in Chicago. Hewlett-Packard Co. deals with 6000 small American companies in its electronics business. But what about competition? Aren’t the big boys stamping it out and virtually dictating prices? No. There arc many energetic, clever people making a success in business despite the presence of “big guys” in the same field. Robert Cuff, president of Entron Controls,Tnc., in Carol Stream, III., proudly points out that his industrial-controls manufacturing firm can and does compete with the giants in certain areas. It has even sold control devices to some of General Electric’s own cor& poratc divisions. Says Cuff, “They buy from us—even though GE makes a similar product—because we can build it at a lower price and give faster delivery." Remarks Irvinc'Robbins, of giant Baskin-Robbins lee Cream Co.: “Sometimes when we get big, we get a little lazy, a little complacent." When his company grew big by concentrating on “walk-in, walk-out” ice-cream stores, Farrell’s of Portland, Ore., moved profitably into the same market as BR with sitdown soda-fountain parlors. “They woke us up,” $ays Robbins. “So we started concentrating on the fountain end of our business. The result was that we improved a little, and Farrell’s is doing fine, too.” As to the charge that big business artificially keeps prices high, the facts again rip apart the rhetoric. A study by economist J. Fred Weston, of the University of California, Los Angeles, reveals that the heavily concentrated industries (big business) have held prices down better than smaller and less concentrated ones. In industries where the top four companies had at least 75 percent of the business, prices rose an average of 47 percent during the inflationary period 1967-1975. But in the leastconcentrated sectors of industry, prices rose 70 percent in the same period. Leonard Woodcock, president of the United Auto Workers, admits: “The old anti-trust notion —that, if you break things up into small competitive units, you will have lower competitive prices—may be wrong. General Motors, the biggest car producer, is without question the most efficient and most able to hold down the cost of its products.” Whatever their size, in the end, businesses in America must pass the test imposed by the most affluent and sophisticated consumers in the world. Any business must affirmatively answer those old questions: Does it do the job? Docs it deliver the goods ? Docs it satisfy you?

More positions will have to be terminated by September 1st, but the exact number has not yet been determined. President Robert Ketter announced the lay-offs at last Tuesday’s Faculty Senate meeting. Out of the 58 cut positions, 38 have already been identified and will correspond to retirements and resignations which would have occurred this year anyway, he said. Assistant Executive Vice President Charles Fogel said Friday that the remaining 20 employees to be laid-off have also been identified, but have not yet been notified. Except for some of the 38 positions which would have been terminated this year by attrition, no teaching faculty will be affected by the February 29th dismissals, said James DeSantis, director of Information Services. No faculty lay-offs yet “One of the serious problems posed was academic priorities and institutions.

A UUAB Film memorandum sent to Committee Chairman Dennis Fox by Sub Board Executive Director Thomas Van Nortwick on January 7 said that the films were not acceptable and would have to be replaced with “predominantly popular films which are “more responsive to the students of this University.” Sub Board is demanding that the films Electro Glide In Blue an American-made film, and seven foreign films, including the current film Swept Away be replaced. The other films named in Van Nortwick’s memorandum were Zazie Dans Le Metro, The Little Theater of Jean Renoir, Les Violins Du Bal, Tales of The Taira Clan, Every Man For Himself And God Against All. and Xala. regard to these films.” Fox and other members of UUAB’s Fine Arts Film Committee said that some contracts were already signed and they did not plan to change the film schedule after it was already printed and distributed throughout the University. In some cases, Fox claimed Friday, breaking these contracts might jeopardize all future dealings with major film distributors. “Em just going to stand my ground,” Fox insisted, adding that changes made so late in the season could only be “self-destructive” since “we’re victims to the whims of each movie company.” , Contracts signed Van Nortwick’s memo implied that exceptions would be considered if “a firm commitment has been established with S.A. peeved The dispute had its start in October when Student Association Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde, who is also on Sub Board’s Board of Directors, complained at a Sub Board meeting about UUAB’s alleged unresponsiveness to students’ tastes. As Lalonde explained Friday, students were asking him, “If 1 pay $67 (the annual mandatory activities fee), why can’t I see films for less than on the outside?” Commented Lalonde, “I thought that was a good question.” At the November Sub Board Director’s meeting, Lalonde spoke of the student complaints and again urged they take some sort of action to make the Film Committee “more responsive” to students. The Board of Directors took no action, and this, according to Lalonde, drove the Student Association representatives on the Sub Board Board of Directors to draw up a proposal that would affect all Sub Board committees (UUAB is a division of Sub Board). The Board of Directors approved three proposals out of the five submitted —continued on page 4 — Ketter cuts off funds for the student pharmacy by Richard Korman Managing Editor President Robert Ketter is cutting off funds for the student pharmacy in Michael Hall until pharmacy transferred from Sub Board license the is to the University. Ketter feels the pharmacy is justified, although he believes an academic branch of the University and not Sub Board is responsible for seeing that the pharmacy’s “contribution to the educational mission” of the University is Executive Vice President Albert Somit indicated. Ketter was reported out of town and could not be reached. The pharmacy will close “out of necessity” within two weeks if the problem is not resolved, according to Sub Board Health A1 Director Care Division Campagna. He said that since the fund cutoff, the pharmacy has fallen about $3000 into debt, fulfilled., mostly to drug companies who will not supply any new drugs if they are not paid within the year. The student pharmacy has been operating since November and currently fills about 40 prescriptions a day. Funded with $36,000 in student mandatory fees and a $1,500 allocation from the University administration, the pharmacy is run by a committee with representatives from Sub Board, the School of Pharmacy, University and Health the Sciences Division. Mandatory fee expenditures by students is subject by law to administration A approval. request for each expenditure must be signed by a student and sent to President Assistant Vice for Anthony Affairs Student approval, for Lorenzettr* Lorcnzetti said Ketter instructed him in late November not to process any more requests for the pharmacy after he [Lorenzetti] the inquired had about appropriateness expenditure. of the Sub Board is an independent which distributes corporation about $240,000 out of the total $880,000 in mandatory fees for SA, and funds UUAB, student publications, the Health Care Division, and other services. -Its board of directors consists of officers from the six student associations. Sub BOard’s role within the University has never been clearly defined, but Ketter apparently restated at a closed meeting last Tuesday among top University administrators his view that Sub Board was only a disbursing agent and could not develop commercial enterprises.' « Although Ketter of the appaised had been pharmacy’s sources speculate that he considered it an error to allow it to be licensed in the name development, of Sub Board. Univesrity officials that Ketter feels if, for say example, the pharmacy is the defendent in a lawsuit, the University, not Sub BOard. would be finally responsible. Almost all the health care facilities in Michael Hall are funded by mandatory fee money (excluding doctors salaries), but are designated Univesrity services. Educational venture If the student pharmacy license is transferred from Sub Board to the Health Science Division of the Univeristy, Ketter could more easily justify its funding as an educational venture, rather than a student service, and at the same time be assured of greater control. Associate School of Dean Robert Cooper said there would be no change in how the pharmacy is run. Part of the problem in this from the students’ point of view is that the administration would have control of a project which was funded with S36.000 of mandatory fees. There is also the fear that Ketter would use his appease to local control pharmacists and pharmaceutacal associations, possibly by raising the price of a prescription.

These are also operations restrained from competing with service offered by the any Faculty-Student Association, a financial arm of the University University which runs the Bookstore, and the Food and Vending services.

Popular films In addition, the SA proposed an item mandating that film choices for the coming semester shall be “predominantly popular films” and accused the Film Committee of believing itself to be “an instrument to provide seldom-seen foreign films.” “While the educational role of the Committee should not be completely obscured,” the proposal stated, “the fact remains that these foreign films do not cater to a large segment of the student population.” Another SA proposal stated that the Sub Board Board of Directors would have to approve the film list to make sure it was “predominantly popular,” and set up a mechanism for doing so. Neither of these proposals were accepted by the. Board of Directors, which is made up of representatives from the Graduate —continued from page 3— . Apparent consensus Van Nortwick alluded to the two rejected SA proposals as vague, and said that there was “an apparent consensus” on the issue despite the specific proposals not being accepted. In accordance with this “apparent consensus,” Van Nortwick sent a draft of the weekend film list to the twelve members of the Board of Directors, asking for specific objections to films. He received responses from eight members, 'some of whom prepared their lists of unacceptable films together, he said. The eight films singled out for exclusion from the schedule were those which. Van Nortwick found, appeared on each of the lists he received. Much of the controversy seems to center on the ambiguity of several of the terms used in Van Nortwick’s memo. Neither Van Nortwick or Lalonde was able to give a specific- definition of “popular films.” Van Nortwick said, “films responsive to students” could be defined as was widely requested for reshowing films that “the larger group would want to and afterwards. see.” Fox mentioned that in recent years, Lalonde, while emphasizing that he does theaters in the area have like “art,” asserted that “the majority of commercial films only after they had foreign to booked people don’t... we have an obligation UUAB.

The end of the semester is when “things come to a head,” creating the time of greatest depression. Seniors also have their share of depression. After four years of study, many don’t know where to go, or what to do, Altucher said. Robin Goldstein, a senior at Buffalo State College, is graduating this August with a degree in Education. She began feeling depressed last semester. “Fve put a lot of work into my major and I now realize it was for nothing. Being from New York City, the chances of my getting a job are next to zero.” Altucher and Roth suggest change as a cure for depression. Often, however, the student acknowledges the need for change, but can do nothing about it. One Buffalo State student claims that she would like to transfer to another school, but cannot do so because of her special major. The fact that she is “stuck” in the same school for four years leaves her feeling very depressed. by Jerry Rosoff SpttMtm irrhflnil.' Staff Writer hr Students at' this;'.' University and at schools across the country are not only feeling the effects of economic depression, but the effects of mental depression as well. Students commonly sink into a depressed state and psychologists urge them to deal with the problem directly rather than ignore or suppress it. Both Nathan Altucher and Beatrice Roth of the Student Counseling Center in that the Library agree Harriman “Sophomore Syndrome” is one common case of student depression. Roth explains that there is a sense of excitement associated with being a freshman. For some people, it represents the first time they have ever been on their own. It is, therefore, the decline of excitement in *the second year of college and the onset of a feeling of isolation that Syndrome.” brings about the t; Threatening vacations Life appears meaningless to the student who suffers from this depression and they often question why they are in college. Goals seem unattainable. Altucher and Roth feel the people who haven’t taken a serious look at themselves are most severely affected. Friday afternoons, as well as vacation times, spur a mood of depression for many students who find it difficult to cope with their own free time. Altucher says it is because “school provides a structure that free time does not.” As long as the student’s day is arranged and planned, there is no difficulty, but once that structure is broken, a problem may result. Exam periods are also times of widespread student depression. According to Altucher and Roth, the Student Counseling Service receives its greatest influx of students around these periods. Instant cute Although it would seem logical that final exam time would cause the greatest amount of depression, Altucher and Roth explained that midterms seem to exert the greatest strain on a student’s mental condition. It is around midterm time when students who have not done well on earlier exams begin to seriously doubt their future in that subject. Altucher and Roth believe the student’s fear of change contributes to this problem. Many students feel that dropping a subject is an admission of failure and often stick with it rather than admit that they couldn’t keep up with the work. Fear of jpoewK PROBLEM PREGNANCY?

But, he says, after one or two weeks, many inevitably fall into the depression cycle. Relating a study done by the Counseling Service a number of years ago, he said students who performed extremely well one semester and extremely poorly the next were called for an interview. All of the students said their drop in grades was an accident and things would get better. People tend to give up on themselves during the spring semester, Altucher said. If things go poorly in the fall, the attitude is, “I’ve always got next semester to improve.” Once the spring semester rolls around, they realize that a whole year’s work has been wasted, but by that time, it is too late. �LimitingS/U M/SC registration Faculty Senate unanimous in approving grading change If yon were closed out of a Women’s Studies College course, yon may now register again using a new registration number. Call the College with the name, registration number, and section of your course at 831-3405 to obtain the new number. Sales limit severely cut back Coop hours change the current proposal to A Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory (S/U grading system here was approved unanimously by the Faculty Senate at its January meeting. The plan, which will take effect next September if okayed by University President Robert Ketter, would make it more difficult to take courses S/U, and students would not be able to elect S/U grading for courses in their major. Introduced by Physics professor and Faculty Senate president-elect Jonathan Reichert, the proposal calls for two types of “binary grading,” one at the student’s option and the other at instructor's option. Binary grading is a systefti with only two types of grades: pass or fail. The instructor, with the approval of his department or unit head, may elect to grade an entire class Pass/Fail (P/F. If a course is to be graded P/F, it would be listed as such and the students would be informed of P/F in writing at the beginning of the course. According to Reichert this option is intended mainly for courses of a performance nature, such as theater or dance, that do not lend themselves easily to letter grading. The Student Association (SA) Record Coop will only be open from one to three hours per day due to controls imposed by President Robert Ketter, according to Coop Director Bruce Insana. Keller restricted Coop sales to a 510,000 limit monthly in order for it to remain in operation. However, the decision may be changed or modified by the State University Board of Trustees or the University’s College Council. The 510,000 monthly limitation serious undermines the purpose of the Coop, one member said. The Coop’s projected income for this year was 5240,000? the 5120,000 yearly limitation will not only cause a cutback in the Coop’s business hours, but will force a significant reduction in their record inventory as well, Insana said. Go to jail The ultimatum was delivered at a meeting last semester between Ketter. Insana and SA Executive Vice President Art Lalonde. “Ketter called the meeting in part because of my (Insana's) letter saying that the Coop had met all of his financial and administrative preconditions, and were therefore going to open,” Insana said. He claimed that Ketter stalled until the end of the semester before making a decision, knowing it would be difficult to raise student support during finals week. Insana’s letter demanded that if the Coop did not open, “the entire issue would be brought back to the students." At the meeting, Insana claimed that Ketter waved Insana’s letter in front of him saying. “Go ahead and do it, if there is any trouble they 11 go to jail.” Ketter was not available to comment on this statement. However. Assistant to the President Thomas Crane explained that Kettcr’s comment was probably made simply in the context of students obeying the recognized University rules and regulations Executive Vice President Albert Somit claimed that the $10,000 limit was a “reasonable figure, and represented a compromise between what was acceptable to the surrounding community and the Coop.” However, Coop members feel differently, and have vowed to fight the limitations. “Ketter is yielding to the pressure of local businessmen instead of siding with the students who rightly control this University,” said Insana. SA President Michele Smith has informed The Spectrum that a position paper is currently being compiled by SA on the entire subject of student services, to be delivered to the College Council. limits In courses where P/F is not mandatory, the student's decision not to take a letter grade would be noted on his grade report. However, instructors will also have the option of submitting only letter grades for all students. Reichert feels this would eliminate a major abuse of the present S/U grading system where students have approached instructors as late as the last week of the semester requesting an S/U grade because they were afraid of receiving a poor letter grade. IN addition. Reichert's proposal would require to inform the In addition. Reichert's proposal would require inform the period of his desire to be graded P/F. The final two conditions are that P/F may not be taken for any course or required elective .for a student's major, and for no more than five credits in to any semester. Under the new plan, students may choose to a P/F grade to a letter grade, but not the reverse.' Any change would be irreversible. If a student changes his major, he must substitute a letter change P/F grade In his new major. Students on academic probation would not be allowed to elect P/F grading. The grades P.S and U will not be calculated in the student’s Grade Point Average (GPA), but an F grade would. grade for any by Charles Greenberg Spectrum Staff Writer Reichert feels the present S/U grading system has been abused. The original intent of the system was to encourage students to leave their major fields and take difficult courses in other disciplines without harming a high GPA, he explained. However, he charged that students presently use this sytem to shield themselves from poor grades within their majors. . > < Affairs Academic Student Association Coordinator David Shapiro attacked the proposed changes at several points. At a time of budget retrenchments, he questioned the ability of the Admissions and Records Office to handle such a large-new responsibility. Shapiro also stated that S/U grading diould not be tied to Drop/Add dates, which are affected by 1973, non-academic constraints. As late as University policy set the sixth week of the semester as the S/U deadline, he explained, while this semester the last -day to drop a course without financial penalty is January 31, only two weeks and two days into the semester. Sbapuo feels that more time is necessary for a student to hake such an important decision. , Shapiro also objects to the proposed limits of five credits a semester. He said a student’s academic leeway would be greatly increased if the current limit of 2S percent of a student’s total courses toward a degree is maintained. Reichert, however, feels that the semester course limit would prevent a student from graduating with an excessive (greater than 2S percent) total of S/U courses. George Hochfield, chairman of the Faculty Senate, observed a growing feeling against the current S/U grading system within the faculty, he said. A committee was formed in the Faculty Senate last year to approach the problem. Reichert feels his plan would eliminate confusion among both students and the faculty, since all regulations regarding P/F grading would be set out in writing and in advaice.

Plan of action the In the December 3 Departmental Stewards Council meeting, with the Steering Committee the GSEU charged members responsibility of proposing a strategy. By means of formal meetings and informal discussions over the winter recess, the 15 member Steering Committee put together what it sees as a viable plan of action for the spring semester. Already the GSEU Faculty Chairpersons have met with the Departmental Stewards to discuss die proposed program and begin working on its implementation. In addition, many stewards report that meetings are being conducted in their departments to discuss in more detail the demands, the proposed program, and the recruitment of new members. The GSEU Treasurer reports that the union membership (at $ 10 per ye-ir) is steadily increasing. GSEU members seek an increase in assistantship levels although has they feel that even £4,000 fads far short of a living wage. Inflation assistantship minimum levels 1967 when percent since surpassed 60 were established at $3,000. The union has determined that the average 1974 assistantship level here was about $2,900.

GSEU members say these are not the first cuts experienced by TA’s and GA’s. They point out that over the years, TA’s and GA’s have seen cuts and speed-ups by the administration which has resulted in undergraduate class sizes increasing from about 20 students to the present level of 35 to 45. With each TA or GA line considered 0.25 FTE, the union leaders are concerned that the 150 FTE cuts will eliminate several hundred more TA’s and GA’s. GSEU members consider guaranteed continuance of funding as critical in view of cutbacks and the University’s imposition _of the four-year rule. The four-year rule stipulates that no Ph.D. candidate can receive state funding beyond four years even though many academic programs require more than four years for completion. As a result of cutbacks, many second, third and fourth year candidates are losing their assistantships even though their academic and employee performance meets required standards. - - - alrefwHbeiievc that “We cannot know whether we love God, although there may be strong reasons for want to serve you, rtr-Jriwj so, but there cot be no doubt dNWt whether we love our neighbor or not.

A memorandum from this Director of Graduate Studies states that all TA’s and GA.s arc specifically excluded from the compensatory insurance presently available to other employees. GSEU considers accident insurance as particularly important in the laboratories where TA’s and GA’s have been injured seriously in the past. v the GSEU spokespersons claim that the demand on Affirmative Action is essentia] for improving the status of women and especially oppressed national minorities. GSEU maintains that though the achievement of this goal cannot solve the complex problems that women and national minorities face, it lays the foundation for elimination of discriminatory practices.

University officials were either unavailable for comment or denied the charges. “We arc doing everything we can to try to restore our original agreement with the University,” Magnamo stressed. “We do not want to bring suit not-restored, we may be bankrupt.” Magnamo emphasized that the lawsuit will be used as a last resort, but he expressed serious concern that the future of the company and its 150 employees was threatened. Magnamo argued that thcrf is no reason why SUNY Buffalo has breached its original contract. “It is not a matter of exorbitant rate demands, Blue Bird was the low bidder, of the three companies, as a matter of fact,” he claimed.

It appears that from the onset, there has been a generally negative approach to the whole issue of student services. Instead,of immediately seeking out the compelling avenues of defense, upholding the right of students to service themselves, administrators have chosen the easier routes of compromise, bowing down to pressure from businessmen who have no role in the management of this institution. In the administrative eye, jt is obviously the students who have been forced to relinquish their controlling shares. Thus, our cries, that reducing the yearly sales volume in the Record Coop by one-half cannot possibly accommodate the 27,000 students entitled to its services, only falls on deaf ears. A similar destructive fate could be in store for the student pharmacy if President Robert Ketter continues to withhold the mandatory fee money needed to operate it with no official communique explaining why. Even now with the future of the pharmacy threatened by its inability for drugs, there is no word from Ketter. This to pay ■ constitutes a serious abuse of his power over the fee and we strongly advise him to cut out the secrecy and resolve this problem without further impinging on the operation of the by Rod Snaden Wesley Foundation Director Governor Brown in California, Governor Grasso in Massachusetts, and to a lesser extent Governor Carey in New York, all are trying to cut expenses at the hitter levels of government; though only Governor Grasso has teen fit to include herself a voluntary cut in pay and no chauffeur driven limousine. But could more be — done? More specifically, will more be done at the top levels of the SUNY system, and especially at the State University at Buffalo? How many members of the administration, from the President on down, could take anywhere from $5— $7000 (or more) cut per year, not miss it in terms of their current life style, and save a few jobs of those 150 cuts that must be made. Think of the meaning some would lose some money to keep some from losing all their money, and keep them from further draining the unemployment money supply thus saving more than just a job. There is a president, an executive vice president, seven division vice presidents and three deans. How much could each if only $5,000= $60,000 6 jobs? And if spare not from their personal salaries, what about excess on their staffs, or in their offices? Is there really no way to “scrape” and “collect” to save some of the people with the ship? These are hard questions and they will )iot endear me to a few friends in — — = - ' pharmacy. In the past few months, the administration has singled out the Record Coop and the student pharmacy by attempting to dictate the terms of their operation. If administrators continue to take potshots at individual student services, we must be on our guard to protect them. Otherwise, there may soon be nothing left. To the Editor.

Monday, 19 January 1976 . To the Editor. On Palm Sunday, 1972, the Veiy Rev. Francis B. Sayre Jr., Dean of the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. said, “Now the Jews have it all. But even as they praise their G-d for the smile of fortune, they begin almost simultaneously to put him to death.” The Holocaust and the Jewish State has been something of a thorn in the side of some modern Christian theologians. A system of thought that must forever explain, or explain away the fate of the Christ killing Jew must ultimately reconcile itself with the secularization of those beliefs carried to its insane but nevertheless logical conclusion Nazi Germany. Billy Graham, spiritual leader of Presidents and cbuntlcss millions has provided us with another version of this ugly scenario. The Hiding Place, a movie ostensibly about the Holocaust, has surfaced at a particularly troublesome time for responsible Jews and Christians. In a rather obvious way, this Graham production portrays the Christian protectors of Jews as martyrs, while the Jews are nothing more — than lonesome creatures who eventually expose then protectors to the Nazis. This “dramatization” ignoring history, fact, truth or whatever rational criteria one might use adds to a process of invidious revisionism, that can only pave the way for another generation of oven builders. The attempt to fane the public into this fundamentalist diatribe by a I hiding to the number six million (in small print, “people who read the book”) is an insult to die millions who pendied. and those Christians who did in fact risk all to save Jews from their certain fate. We live in a time that easily loses of its past. Only 35 years ago Adolph Hitler reminded his deputies that nobody remembered the Turkish genocide of the Armenians at the turn of the century, and the same would be true of die Jews. The “final solution” was at hand! We write this letter to remind you.

And for Senator Musicie of Maine (whose father's name was shortened by the immigration inspector when the family landed in America), it could be a vital speech too. He will have an hour simultaneously on three networks starting at 9 p.m. Wednesday in an unprecedented rejoinder for the Democratic Congressional Majority. It could be as to the voters on the actual issues of the election, as distinct from the froth, hokum and personalities of the primary contests, as anything since the Nixon Kennedy debates. It could be a new thing in American government, a regular “State of the Union Reply." How important it is will depend on two men. President Ford, who now everywhere sees Ronald Reagan giving a packaged Hollywood pin. over his shoulder, and Senator Muskie, 61. who once tan for Vice President with Hubert Humphrey, who has just announced that he is tunning again for the Senate, and who recalls his tough but idyllic boyhood in Rumsford, Maine, where “we bathed once a week in a tin tub heated on the stove."

A _ bet about 1976 we should think the Democrats would win this year, but it is way too early to say. And now a word about Senator Muskie. This isn’t the first time he has answered Presidents. In 1970 be made two replies for his party to Nixon. The first one was after the State of the Union speech where the thrust was on environmental pollution. Muskre was chairman of a Senate committee on the subject and it was natural for him to make the response which was polite enough and didn’t repeat his earlier taunt that the administration was slogan-rich and action-poor. A different Muskie answered Nixon’s savage e»e-of-lhe election broadcast, November 2, 1970. All the President’s paranoid rancor welled up against the crowd that had thrown rocks at his motorcade in San Jose, California. He recorded the speech in Phoenix, video-taped in black and white with harsh lights on his features like the one in his debate with Jack Kennedy, years before. He implied that political opponents were encouraging lawlessness. Muskie’s reply was quiet and powerful. Forty million people watched. It was put on back-to-back with the Nixon speech. His voice was measured and reassuring: “Something has gone wrong,” be said of the Nixon vendetta: “It has been led, inspired and gnkled from the highest offices of the land;” in the effort to “turn common distress into partisan advantage.” he said, “they haply that Democratic actually favor violence and champion candidates the wrong-doer. This,” he said quietly, “is a lie. And the American people know it is a lie.” It made a sensation. Under Musfcie’s exterior calm, there is a turbulent interior. He faced down a heckler once and an awed staff member whispered, “Geez, he’s got a glare that would intimidate Mount Rudunore.” His reply to Nixon really launched his 1972 presidential bid. He said be would fire J. Edgar Hoover first thing. He was “front-runner” for a year, which is as slippery a log to stand up on as any Maine lumberjack ever attempted, and he slipped off it that snowy day in the Manchester, New Hampshire primary four years ago, tripped up by the original dirty trick, the phony “Canuck” letter. So why does he speak for the Democratic Congress now? Mike Mansfield picked him, for one thing, because he isn’t a presidential candidate as everybody else seems to be. Besides that, his rangy six-foot four frame reminds some Of a moose they are big, loosely bung with a good deal of reserve power. But more important, for a year now, Muskie has known as much about the budget as anybody in Congress, and Mr. Ford’s speech it on the budget. Budget committee chairman Muskie’s effort to keep appropriations in line with revenues could be the most important thing in the 94th Congress. It’s a startling new idea. Sometime he has seemed like Big Daddy leading a child. But he isn’t a candidate he — — says. WS&K VHXZ ' Loewuee 0ETTBRORFW? um& Hi (SaRNG OFUGx) mm? uzuue feoirfUL LN6S.

NHL-Soviet hockey ends hut violence controversy lingers rough-housing. by hul Krehbiel Contributing Editor The Wings of the Soviet and the Central Red Army hockey teams departed from the United States last week amid continuing discussion over the exciting, but controversial series with National Hockey League clubs. The Soviet teams, generally recognized as excellent and on par with the best in the NHL took five of eight games. If it does, we should applaud the Soviet hockey players for resolving a problem that North American players and fans should have put an end to years ago. It is clear that the Soviets have ' a different view,of the game than many NHL players and fans. Sergei Guskov, a coach of the Soviet Wings, explained, “It is difficult for us to play according to NHL rules.” He said that in Soviet hockey defensemen cannot tie-up opposing players in front of their net, or push them out of the slot area. Likewise, heavy body checking and rough play would be called for penalties. Yet, what is at issue, is the two different styles of play. Many North American hockey team players, owners, fans and sportswriters boldly proclaim the rough and violent style of NHL hockey as the best. Apparently Soviet style Thus, precision passing oblivious to the finer points of the game hockey and develop bonds of mutual friendship and not to be understanding provoked into rough play or fights though this sometime? happens. This type of play only ruins the game of hockey, and has led to serious injuries in the past. Sports are intended to improve one’s physical well-being, not destroy it. The game suffers when exciting players like Gil Perreault, Valeri Bobby Hull or Kharlanov, — — Aleksandr Yakushev are sidelined because of injuries. Hull protests too Bobby Hull, one of North America’s all-time greats, recently sat out one game to protest the violence in hockey. Hull said, goons ‘The the stick-swingers... are lasting in this game only because the game allows that crap to go on.” Hull lays the blame with the owners and their desire to make and * ... play-making usually is the deciding factor in winning hockey precision passing, skating and excellent picture-playing goal scoring games and the Soviets are these people see hockey as a form excellent at both. Smaller players of warfare. of excellent ability have worked Many applaud the fighting, their way into the top ranks of highsticking, spearing and heavy Soviet hockey and have done body-checking and boarding that quite well. Yet against larger has become a regular feature of opponents, who play under rules that allow weight and size to be NHL hockey. While this series;,was played used to their advantage, the under NHL rules' (which differ Soviets are at somewhat of a somewhat froth Soviet rules), disadvantage. NHL President Cfarcnte Campbell A number of the visiting Soviet reportedly assured the Soviets players ate S foot seven and S that the rough and dirty play foot eight, and weigh 160 pounds, — - ' exhibited in earlier games would not be repeated in this series. NHL rough-housing Although many people were also critical of dirty play in the NHL, some expressed opposition to the Soviet decision to leave the ice after absorbing rough play from the Philadelphia Flyers. The Soviets expressed concern about the safety of their players, especially with the highly valued Olympic games coming up. Yet perhaps, this action will spark enough national debate to finally put an end to NHL —Photo court My of tho Buffalo Courier-Exprw* ‘The owners think the people (violence], but the is considered “physical culture” in explained that they take their owners are wrong,” he charges. the Soviet Union, and is promoted books with them on road trips to the “If they want to keep to insure the harmonious keep up with their studies, and goons in this game, let them form development of both mind and have, special arrangements to take a league of their own ai)d they can exams at a later date. body. slice each other up.” is development Sports Guskow said the Soviet Union game The Soviet relies on sharp of sees the development of good guaranteed by the Committee passing, puck control, constant of the sportsmanship and team effort as motion and skillfully organized Physical Culture and Sports and is a reflection of Soviet society. while their NHL counterpart is play-making.

In fact, the 49-13 shots on goal total is truly indicative of the tempo of by Larry Amoros Spectrum Staff Writer Cries of “the Russians are Russians coming, the are coming!” were heard echoing through hockey arenas around North America last month. Hockey League National were anxiously supporters awaiting the upcoming exhibition series between the top two Soviet hockey eight teams and the game. The match though was marred in the early going due to a childish maneuver by Russian' coach Constantin Loktev, who heads the Central Army team. After a series of hard checks and rugged hits by the Flyers, Philly defenseman Ed Van Impe allegedly tripped Soviet star Valery Kharlamov. Referee Lloyd Gilmour of the NHL either didn’t see the infraction, or chose not to call it. This sequence of events so enraged Loktev, that he pulled l)is players off the ice to the Soviet bench in protest of the Flyers’ tactics and Gilmour’s designated NHL squads. Well, the series was completed last week, and now the Russians yelling bloody are murder. They’re nqt bragging and boasting about their supremacy over many of the National League teams, but instead, they are complaining about the Philadelphia Flyers’ “style of play.” The Soviets, just like many NHL critics, have resorted to calling the Flyers have even “animals-,” and questioned their presence on the ice.

The Soviet coach then figured why not be 21 men down, and he took his entire team into the dressing room, demanding new officials. The Soviets picked up, lock, stock and barrel and left the ice.

The move by the Russians was one of the cheapest, bush-league schemes seen in- hockey circles in recent years. The Soviets had no right to leave the ice in the manner in which they did, regardless of the Flyers’ tactics. Granted, Philadelphia is a dirty hockey team, and quite often their form of schoolyard shinny proves to be dangerous to opponents, but in this particular game the Flyers were not overly rough and did not threaten the Russians. seriously To check or not to check Then, there is the matter of officiating. For the Russians to complain about poor refereeing is tantamount to Richard Nixon corruption in about The 1972 Team Canada-Soviet series was severely griping politics. by the European officials, who abhor any type of physical play. Two referees were used in that series instead of one and they considered the most harmless of checks as violent and cause for penalty. hampered According to NHL president Clarence Cambell, the Russians skillfull, a play “very fundamentally sound game ... physical based ■ on no interference.” (Taken from UPI Wire Service.) Subsequently, any type of hitting at all stunned the Soviets so much that they felt referee Gilmour was negligent in his calling of penalties. What seemed to be routine plays to both NHL players and officials seemed to be displays of brutality to the Russians. The recent hockey series between eitfit National TTocksy League teams and two teams from the Soviet Union prpdgced considerable controversy over the different styles of hockey played in North America and the Soviet Union.

In fact, disagreements take place on many levels between sectors of the media and — of the government, between the newspaper owners and their editors, and between editors and writers. The differences that take place between the editors of major media operations and their owners is usually slight, since the editors have risen to their positions after of demonstrating their years loyalty to the interests of the owners. The editors are usually paid well for their services, and probably believe in what they are sectors doing. One major level of struggle is about the they said trip. Both were not interested. Several weeks later, Senators Javits and Pell, and a group of news reporters traveled to Havana for three days. When they returned, the Buffalo Evening News published an entire page of material on Cuba based on these reporters’ trip. Their articles focused on the “shortage” of towels in their hotel rooms and complaints about the presence of goods and machinery from the Soviet Union. There was little explain to the attempt impoverished living conditions for the majority of Cuban people before the revolution and how things have changed since. Progressive papers Aronson wrote an article in the criticizing the Times Newspaper for the Guild’s late 1940’s reporters, writers, production staff and printers, on the one hand, and the owners and their editors, on the other. monthly publication Frontpage. and was reprimanded for it.

In his first years as a writer, he was influenced by the unsympathetic and that the press position government held with regard to the Republican government in Spain. Other distortions that he saw while working at the Boston Evening Transcript led to his skepticism of American politics. Finally his active membership in the American Newspaper Guild which was then moving away from the American Federation of Labor (AFL), and towards the of Congress Industrial helped (CIO), Organization consolidate his views. Later, working as a writer for the New York Post, he was passed over during the selection of a new assistant editor. He recalls in his book that the News Editor, John Gibbons said to him “You were not advanced, my young friend, because your political views are at variance with those held by the management of this enterprise and therefore them.” not acceptable to Rejects Cuba report Some years later, Aronson was working for the New York Times. He remarks that “all stories were balanced,” meaning that the interpretation was never favorable to a socialist country.

Over half of the workers there are typesetters, printers and laborers. Non-monopoly press With many paper mills owned the large newspaper chains, and medium-sized smaller newspapers can be forced out of business when prices "are raised. result is a further The monopolization of the newspaper industry. Aronson notes that the number of daily newspapers has dropped from 2,200 in 1900 to 1,758 in 1970, while some of continue to remaining those expand and increase their profits. Despite the impression that the are disappearing, newspapers “the reports that, Aronson newspaper industry is doing very a the conglomerates well have new form of monopoly by - ... — paid off handsomely by cutting costs Yet, given the monopolycontrolled nature of the mass media, there is a limit on what can be won.

These include the student press, with a total readership of nearly nine million; the trade union and labor press with an estimated circulation of some 20 million; the black press with a readership of between two and three million, and the left press with a circulation of perhaps 100,000 to one million. The student press There 1,200 are student publications in the United States. The largest single paper is the State News, published by students at Michigan State University, with of over 39,000.

About 50 have college newspapers circulations of 14,000, or above, including The Spectrum and Daily Texan, and over 135 student papers print 10,000 or more. While offering students the opportunity to gather news, many papers are of varying quality, and many unwittingly reprint stories UP1 or their city from the newspapers.

Blue Bird Bus must get the new contract The University must legally retain its contract with Blue Bird Coach Lines, Inc. after the company concludes a new contract with its drivers, according to James Desantis, director of University Information Services. The drivers, who are members of Local 1203 of the Amalgamated Transit Union (AFL-CIO), have been on strike almost two weeks, reportedly seeking wage increases and higher vacation pay. Although Paul Bacon, of the University Purchasing Department, stated, “Maybe the administration will rehire Blue Bird and maybe it won’t,” Desantis said the present contract runs through August 31, 1976 and can only be broken by a mutual agreement between the company and the University. Desantis explained that every three years there is competitive bidding among local bus companies for the University contract. Blue Bird has been contracted since 1968, with yearly options granted by the University. Financial report requested A Graduate Student Senate resolution 01 “maintaining the high quality of graduatt education” at this University, was submitted Iasi week to President Robert Ketter. The resolution, adopted by the Senate 01 November 20, requests from President Ketter “detailed factual statement of the present University financial crisis, and an analysis of its causes.” According to Terry DiFilippo, Graduate Studen Association (GSA) President, a statement on th< consequences of this crisis for graduate education and calls for a “University-wide committee t< coordinate resources, faculty, staff and students t find real solutions to SUNY Buffalo’s and th public’s plight.” Stipends devalued DiFilippo said that the Graduate Student Senati was forced to “take a more definite position oi University cutbacks,” since graduate studen stipends have been devalued in recent years as th( cost of living has increased. In addition, thi; University attaches a four-year limit to such awards. “Graduate students are not able to live on their stipends,” he said. It is estimated that the Teaching Assistant (TA) and Graduate Assistant (GA) stipends have been devalued by more than 50 percent since 1967. The average stipend of $2889, DiFilippo said, will force many graduate students to seek other employment University not in close contact Negotiations between the bus company and Local 1 203 have not proceeded past the opening stages. Blue Bird’s president and owner, Louis A. Magnano, has been reported out of town by his secretary. This news came as a surprise to Desantis. The hiring of Grand Island Transit Corp., owner of Ridge Road Express Inc., which is also supplying buses, is merely “a temporary, emergency measure” Desantis noted. He said that aside from Blue Bird, Grand Island was the only local company able to supply the number of buses necessary for the estimated 12,000 students who travel daily by Marty Schwartz between campuses. Spectrum Staff Writer “We have run into no particular problems at this point,” Desantis the during “and Grand Island continue service will continued, limited “In all probability, the Student upcoming Christmas vacation.” Mike McClemens, President of the Amalgamated Transit Union Association (SA) Record Coop Local 1203 was not available for comment and University officials do will open for business at 12:00 not know when a settlement will be reached between Blue Bird and the noon on Wednesday [today],” union. according to Coop Director Bruce Insana Insana expressed this optimism despite the fact that President Robert Ketter had not decided by the time The Spectrum went to press whether the guidelines he set for the Coop’s reopening were fulfilled. Insana said the reopening originally scheduled for Monday was dealyed when record store owner Carl Cavage took his case against the Coop to the state legislature and SUNY Board of Trustees. “Essentially, we have been closed a month, and we’re tired of waiting. We've done everything he [Ketter] has asked for an we’re operating on the assumption that Ketter will approve. If he doesn’t or if he sets the inventory levels too low, the entire Coop will have to decide what they want to do," Terry DiFilippo in addition to their teaching or research activities. “If the cutbacks become more severe, there will be drastic consequences on the high quality of graduate education at this University,” DiFilippo said. Waiting for Ketter Record Coop to open today tnsana said Awaiting the word Both SA and the Student Association of the State University (SASU) recommended that the Coop not reopen without hearing Ketter’s final word. SA Executive Vice President Art Lalone claims “opening without Ketter’s approval is playing confrontation politics, and students tend to lose in that game.” Insana reported that “SASU felt we should wait to give our case more authoirty.” SASU has taken on defense of the Coop on the grounds that it is a student service, and it has educational value. Ketter, who received the final proposal concerning the Coop’s accounting procedures Monday morning, commented that “a decision could come at anytime; however, 1 still have some questions in my mind.” He refused to elaborate. Coop members criticized the SA for the delay in reopening. One member fell SA was too concerned with the overall issues and not enough with the Coop’s specific need. Another said SA made too many concessions to the administration in the bargaining process. Constraints Doug Cohen, SA Director of Student Activities replied that “SA is working under many administrative, constraints, departmental, and our own. Things just don’t happen over night.” However, the brunt of the criticism was directed toward Ketter. One Coop member said he watched the President say on television last Saturday how priorities for the University are now directed towards getting students practical or applied education. “Why has he then tried to close down the few that have organizations attempted to do that," the member asked. Finally, some members raised a moral issue. They believe the “feeling” behind the Coop is being lost by paying students to handle the accounting that was always done for free. I hey expressed concern that if (hey have to start paying workers, th prices of the records might r defeating the whole p the Coop. .

Wednesday, 10 December 1975 �Problem of normalization Department of Speech is offering support service to hearing impaired employee’s hearing problem, the service can provide the by Fredda Cohen Feature Editor The hearing impaired students on campus have long gone unnoticed by many departments at this University. The fault does not lie solely with the faculty or administration, however, for many are not aware of the invisible handicaps of some of their students. Several audiologists suggest that the students feel so severely stymatized that they are afraid to “cane out” and make their professors aware of their special needs. To help remedy the problem, the Department of Speech Communications and Disorders is offering a supportive service to the hearing impaired. The service was initiated by Wanda Miller, an audiology major at this University and Derek Sanders, Associate Chairman of the department. “The strongest problem for a hearing impaired student is the process of normalization,” stated Miller, who is hearing impaired herself from birth. Because many of these students have long remained in household of protective parents, who sometimes tend the to shelter their children, they are not prepared to handle the fast-paced University environment on their own. If the student begins to experience difficulties, due to an auditory handicap, he or she might feel embarrassed to tell the professor. Spoon fed Miller cited her own past experience. Although she is excellent at reading lips, and has very little difficulty in following lecture classes, she was having trouble in one class where the professor often showed films. Because the actors constantly had their backs to the audience or the film was focused on something other than the speaker, there was no way she could comprehend the words She explained the situation to her professor who just insisted that he did not want to “spoon feed” her. Determined to get assistance, she spoke to one of her audiology professors. The professor, in lurn, called up the uncooperative teacher and explained that Miller did not want special treatment, but simply a fair chance to compete with the other students. As a result, she was given alternative reading materials. Miller, who claims to be more outspoken on the subject than most of the other hearing impaired students at this University, believes the other students also desire supportive services on campus. “My impression is that they feel something is missing in the school system.” Speech communications students involved in the special program for hearing impaired hope the services will fill this void. Total service set up for audiological Shapiro, a doctoral student in audiology. “We now want it to become a coordinator of total services, not just a yearly audiological work-up. It should act as a referral service, a counseling service, and a “The testing,” clinic was originally said Marsha liason between students and the University.” For example, if a company is uncertain as to the extent of a potential PROBLEM PREGNANCY?

One of the false generalizations associated with these students is that all hearing impaired are 100 percent deaf. most impaired people have some sense of Miller, who is considered audiologically deaf, stressed the difference between that and being socially However, hearing. deaf. “In terms of socialization, a person that is deaf is not capable of communicating in a normal manner (other than speech communications, such as sign language), while a hearing impaired person can communicate ordinarily, but has difficulties in some cases,” she said. For a person who lip reads, low lighting and bad ennunciation create difficult conditions. Because a hearing aid equalizes the volume of far and near noises, crowded areas produce much interference. Many of the problems involved in learning how to communicate are the same as those enountered by a foreign student learning English, such as word usage, exceptions, and idioms and cliches, claimed Miller. Easier to pass two other explanations for the “I think it is easier for a participation. of students’ lack deaf person to pass,” she said. “Also, a lot of people have had so much training before college, that they are tired of it. College gives them more of a chance to be on their own, without constant supervision or protection.” It only takes a few isolated incidents to make a person feel ashamed of a hearing defect. When Miller was in elementary school, for example, she said she had at least Shapiro offered one teacher a year who would humiliate her. One time, she fell in school and bruised herself. A teacher came over to her and accused “her kind” of making all sorts of unnecessary trouble. That teacher was the exception, Miller claimed, “but the exception leaves a big imprint.” She also cited evidence of job discrimination. Although the law specifies that discrimination is illegal unless the handicapped person is a hazard td the health of other employees, it is existant all the same. Employers often claim that the job has already been filled. Even when the person is employed, the job is likely to be in jeopardy. Injustices ‘One step ahead’ Although audiologically deaf, Miller considers herself socially hearing impaired, and deplores the term “deaf.” hold a regular conversation by reading lips and the small amount of hearing that she does possess. In fact, she is able to speak on the phone, without any special She can using Because she hears vowels, although very softly, she is able to piece together the sentences of the other speaker. To do this, she said she has to be “one step ahead of the other person,” or know the subject matter of the conversation. She learned this skill by having a friend call her up every day one summer for a few hours at a time. If she could not understand what was being said, the friend would change the sentence structure until it was made clear. “They all said 1 couldn’t do it, but I did,” she declared “It doesn’t matter what the audiogram says,” maintained Miller’s tutor, Debbie Houghtalmg, a graduate audiology student “Other students on campus have better hearing ability than Wanda, but don t make the effort. adjustments. In a twon in Michigan, a hearing impaired woman was specially trained as a murse’s aid. Because of her condition, she was placed in the geriatrics and fractured bone wards, so she wouldn’t be involved in any life and death situations. In each of the rooms, there were buzzers that would activate lights to attract the attention of the staff. One day, instead of pressing the buzzer a staff member called her name and she, of course, did not respond. As a result, she was fired. The injustices go on. Doctors have found deaf people mental institutions, labelled retarded. Car and life insurance is higher than for hearing people, although national statistics from a survey taken in 1968 say that the hearing impaired have a lower rate of accidents than in hearing people. It is important to note that the people who carry the “1 am deaf’ card and ask for contributions are “working” illegally. The American Annals of the Deaf has repeatedly put out warnings urging people not to donate money. These individuals keep most of the money collected and many of them are not even deaf.

The first tremendous progression occurred in the early part of this century when The American Annals of the Deaf and Dubmb changed its name to The American Annals of the Deaf. There is a possibility that it may even change the word, deaf, to hearing impaired. Certain colleges and universities operate special clinics which teach parents of hearing impaired children how to rear them. The major point emphasized is that potential should not be ignored. A few community colleges are also coming out with two-year vocational programs that are designed specifically for the hearing impaired. “The concept of deafness is undergoing a complete change,” said Miller. “A lot of people who have experience with the deaf will say that I’m the exception to the rule, but I tell them no.

Page three �Third World caucus SASU resolves legality by Carrie Valiant Spectrum Staff Writer The fate of the Third World Caucus, created by the Student Association of the State University (SASU) last April in accordance with Affirmative Action, was decided in a joint SASU-Studenf Assembly conference in Buffalo last weekend. The crucial question, concerning the legality of the Caucus, was resolved Sunday by an amendment to the Student Assembly by-laws, providing for “the seating of the Third World delegates to be approved by the State University Board of Trustees.” SASU originally declared the Caucus illegal because there was no clause in the Assembly by-laws which provided for its existence. Each Assembly member school will have one representative to the Caucus, which will in turn elect ten Third World delegates to sit on the Assembly as voting members. The Caucus must be renewed at one year intervals by a majority Assembly vote. While the Assembly has approved the amendment, it has not yet been passed by the SASU membership. However, Buffalo delegate Michele Smith believes if the SUNY Trustees agree to its formation, SASU will probably follow suit. Pending Trustees’ approval Although Smith endorsed the Assembly amendment, she vowed not to vote for it in SASU if the Trustees reject it. Having ten members in SASU that do not belong to the Assembly would make their voting structures different, and break down the unity of the two organizations, she explained. Due to controversy within SASU over the Caucus, Stonybrook, Brockport and Cortland withdrew their from SASU. membership Representatives of these schools claim the Caucus violates the 14th amendment of the Constitution, since Caucus delegates are elected separately from the other SASU delegates. Also tied to the schools’ withdrawals was a recently instated SASU hiring policy which called for the next four vacant staff positions to be filled by at least one woman and one Third World peison. This, they claim, is an illegal quota system and reverse discrimination. The Caucus delegates were temporarily seated at the last SASU conference after lengthy debate. The question of its legality was not brought up at that time. Lets more on Many of the Third World representatives maintained this past Friday that SASU only wanted a Caucus to show its “liberal attitude,” but would not support its intention with the necessary funding. Later, in a closed session meeting with the SASU Executive Committee, Caucus supporters agreed not to bring up the question until other SASU business was completed. One Third World representative claimed SASU had “patted us on the back with a knife,” while a Buffalo spokesperson charged the organization with hypocrisy. Related to the Caucus issue was SASU’s Saturday night decision based on “hearsay” evidence that she was no longer a registered student. This action was reconsidered at the Sunday morning session and will be voted on again after the Trustees reach a decision on the Caucus. Paris is a Third World Caucus delegate. SASU President Bob Kirkpatrick urged the membership not to bog itself down in a debate over Paris, but to “move to the action necessary to legally seat the Third World Caucus.” You can buckle your swash Thursday and Friday in the Conference Theatre with the capable help of Ruchard Lester's The Four Musketeers.

Several chain stores responded to the actions by obtaining a show-cause order Irom State A police crackdown on alleged violators of New York State’s 300-year-old “blue law” resulted the cultural consciousness JLSA heightens The Jewish Law Student Association (JLSA), organized only last year by six law students, has greatly increased its membership and activity in 1975. The JLSA was formed to heighten Jewish “culture consciousness” among students at the School of Law and to advocate Jewish academic and cultural interests within the School. Members of the organization apply legal skills to the problems of the Jewish community, and also try to encourage other minority student organizations interested in social change. Additionally, the JLSA tries to encourage dialogue about current problems in the Middle East, and vehemently opposes anti-Semitism at home. Diversity The JLSA is chartered by the Law School Student Bar Association (SBA) and is supposed to be open to all political views, as well as a diversity of religious orientation, from traditional orthodox to athiest. Last year, JLSA tried to amend the Law School’s calendar to include observance of important Jewish holidays, and also conducted a series of classes for the study of Talmudic Law. The organization has also asked the police department to investigate an anti-semitic remark allegedly made by a police officer to attorney William Kunstler. In addition to last year’s activities, JLSA is working to have kosher food made available in campus vending machines, and sponsoring speakers, such as noted linguist and American foreign policy critic Noam Chomsky. Supreme Court Justice John H. Doerr. District Attorney Edward Cosgrove, Erie County Sheriff Michael Amico, and other county law enforcement heads were ordered to show cause why they should not be prevented from enforcing the Sunday sales prohibition.

An employee of one of Buffalo’s largest supermarket chains, who requested that his name and employer be withheld, was angry over the way the police handled the “blue law” incident at the store where he works. “They spent more time poking around here Sunday on the ‘blue law’ than they did when we had a week,” last he robbery complained.

Most involve the fact that today's listening tastes and toward more volume with less distortion than the typical low efficiency speaker system can deliver with amplifiers of moderate size. As evidence of this fact, witness the recent popularity of super-powered amplifiers in home music systems. Several hundred watts of amplifier power used to be regarded a frivolous excess., but tests have confirmed Pionneer PL50 JBL 88 EPI 10 - Dual 1219 that these power levels are a practical necessity for faithful reproduction of modern recordings with low efficiency speakers. Unfortunately, very few of these speakers can withstand such high power operation for long. High efficiency speakers offer an economical way out of this dilemma.

Farrington, continually Beard, Charles accused younger and radical (“New Left”) historians of being that is, too “Present-minded” accused them of writing history with preconceptions about the present (and future) which shaded their notions of what happened in the past.

The offense is not having such a wonderful day. Oh well, wait until next year when everybody is Editorial Conflicting interests healthy A discussion of the Student Association Record Coop "mysteriously" made its way onto the agenda of the College Council meeting Mondr.y afternoon. The College Council of this University is comprised primarily of Western New York businessmen who have the power to deny or approve any space allocations on campus. Additionally, the body can draw up regulations governing the behavior of students and approve major plans for the University. This week's meeting should be of particular interest to all students. Keeping the Council's far-reaching powers in mind, the members agreed unanimously to try to influence President Ketter to keep the Record Coop permanently off campus. Our one champion at the meeting, SA Director of Student Affairs Steven Schwartz, found himself in the unenviable position of being the only representative present to defend the Coop against conflicting business interests. Schwartz also expressed the fear, based on other sentiments voiced by the membership, that the Council could stand in the way of establishing student services on the Amherst campus that might compete with the commercial enterprises n the planned Parcel B complex. If Schwartz' perception is it can only mean serious trouble in the future for such important services as the Record Coop, the student at all accurate, pharmacy, and the movies in the future Whether the Council's attitudes have any bearing on the Ketter administration remain to be seen. However, what we do see here is clearly an example of the type of dangerous manipulation and political maneuvering that goes on behind the locked doors of this institution. We have every reason to believe that members of the College Council adhere to the adage, "you can't tell us how to run our businesses but we can tell you how to run your University." Vet if we have learned anything from the events that took place on campus this semester (Re:the Record Coop), it is that we, as students, must arm ourselves against those forces that seek to chip away at our education and destroy our right to determine and satisfy our needs The members of the College Council see student services as undermining private enterprise and they will do everything in their power to protect their selfish interests. We have interests to protect too and it is the very core of our education at this University that is at stake - - Amy Dunkin Richard Korman Managing Editor Gerry McKeen Advertising Manager Business Manager Howard Koenig — — City Composition Copy i ' Fredda Cohen Graphics Layout Music Photo . . asst.

I am not really sure 1 do either but 1 seem to be hooked. It seems to have something to do with justice. I would like for there to be a balance between winners and losers in the world. Apparently from being not so good at winning, and feeling very bad when 1 lose, it has come to make sense to me that such things should be balanced. Alas, they are usually not Buffalo is losing again, after making a strong comeback. Part of which, at least emotionally, involved three fumbles by Miami, that were ruled to have all occurred after the whistle was to have blown or not to have been fumbles, or whatever. The thought occurs to one that professional football on television is largely responsible for the decline in the belief in authority.

Cray (“Give me your tired I am a native Buffalonian (one of the quiet majority in this school), and I believe in New York City, but I also believe in all the people who, by their “misfortune,” happen to live in Buffalo, Grand Rapids, Mich., west of the Mississippi or south of the Mason-Dixon Line. I believe that the Federal government has an obligation to financially assist New York, or any other city, state, or group that has, in it’s time, incremented the total financial well-being fo this country. My arguement with you. Mr. Cray, is one of environmental prejudices. It is very narrow-minded of you to assume that New York is the only place in this country that gives “a damn about freedom or the poor,” and you defeat the purpose of your letter by saying so.

Their situation was, and still is, as dire as yours. You serve only to further embitter and alienate them by your pompous claim to idealistic superiority. Since Buffalo’s situation so closely parallels New York’s, we are, by financial definition, predisposed to think more kindly of “The City” than most. But, Mr. Cray, you cannot win our emotional or psychological support if you strive only to underline our faults, and not to illuminate the ties between us Becky Palermo True identity The Spectrum Vol. 26, No. 44 - The advantage of writing this while the Bills are losing is clear, at least there is something external to blame my bad mood on.

In the course of his sermon on Zionism, Mr. Falk describes it as a “national liberation movement.” Although Zionism has been in existence as a political movement for 80 years, this claim was first voiced in 1968 by the 28th World Zionist Convention. It took Zionism over 70 years to discover this alleged identity. Before 1968, Zionists had no illusions about what their movement constituted, namely, a settler colonial movement. Herzl himself, the founder of political Zionism knew this quite well. He wrote to Cecil Rhodes: “Please give me a statement saying you have examined my program and found it appropriate. And why do I come to you, Mr Rhodes?, you will ask. Because my Spectrum , Dec. program is a colonial program.” Colonialism was then in vogue, and Zionism had no difficulty in recognizing its true identity. It called its first hank the Colonial Trust Company. It called its department of settlement the Department of Colonization. It called its settlements colonies. Contrary to the popular impression, Zionism does not speak for all Jews. Many prominent persons of the Jewish faith opposed and spoke-out against Zionism. Early in the 20th century persons such as the writer Ahad Ha’am, Dr. Judah Magnes, the first president of the Hebrew University, and Albert Einstein, were critical of Zionism Many American Jews, such as Rabbi Elmer Berger, founder of American Jewish Alternatives to Zionism, Moshe Menuhin, Dr Alfred Lilienthal, I F. Stone, and Noam Chomsky, to mention only a few, are critical of Zionism. Many people in the West rightly shoulder a sense of guilt for the crimes and atrocities committed against the Jews in Europe. The problem and the cruel irony, however, lie in the fact that another people, that had nothing Ip do with the sins Europeans committed, have been made to atone for them. 1 mean the Palestinian Arabs.

Dear President Ketter Leaning to the right concern public To the Editor There is a group on campus calling themselves the U S. Labor Party. This group claims to be a leftist organization, but there appears to be mounting evidence that they are in reality an extreme Tightest group, possibly CIA funded, with a smattering of true believers who act as writers or salesmen for their newspaper. New Solidarity This group has attacked affirmative action. Black Studies, all the other extreme leftist organizations, Angela Davis, LeRoi Jones, C.ay Liberation, Bella Abzug, Any person who and are pro-nuclear energy disagrees with their positions is immediately labeled as a fascist or a CIA agent by them. At SUNY at Buffalo they have threatened professors and their families, and only those with liberal tendencies, haphazardly accusing them of being CIA agents and creating false stories This intimidation of liberal professors and their families is a tactic reminiscent of the National Socialists in Germany used during the rise of Nazism. They also make allusions to a leftist-Jewish conspiracy. Sound familiar? They have aligned themselves with the Soviet Union, a nation which is a poor example of true communism and a nation with which other leftist groups seek to avoid being identified. 1 his group has also reportedly beaten with chains members of the U S. Communist Party in New York City. They also focus their attack on Rockefeller, who is much hated by the extreme left, but equally so by the extreme right. In one section of their literature they complain that Rocky engineered a plot to rid America of Nixon as its president. What other leftist organizations can one think of that complain of being nd of Richard Nixon’’ They have claimed that their newspaper, New Solidarity is solely funded on the revenue collected by its sale yet such a paper published as often as New Solidarity could never sustain itself solely on the funds collected for its sale. One must ask where all the other money is coming from? All their policies, attacks, and accusations may be received more sympathetically on campus because they are coming from an organization which claims to be leftist. If such statements and attacks were made by a known right-wing organization, they would be less believable on campus. Hence, this is using the cover of a leftist organization. There remains a slight possibility that this organization is a genuine leftist group which merely seeks to wipe out all other elements of the left. Nonetheless, whomever they might be, they are definitely the most sensationalist, misinformed, authoritarian group of liars I have ever encountered on campus since the National White People s Parly formed in Buffalo , Stephen M Knaster The GSA has repeatedly expressed to you its and dismay about the decision by some officials to dismantle the public higher education system that New York State has built over the past few decades. At its November meeting, the Graduate Student Senate resolved to do what it could to maintain the progress that has been made in improving the quality of public graduate education and in opening graduate education to a broader cross-section of the public. The Senate at the same time resolved to solicit your help in directing our efforts. The complete text of the Senate’s resolution is enclosed. As you can see from the text, the Senate essentially is requesting two things. First, we ask for as complete a report on the nature of the crisis as you can give us. This is absolutely necessary if students are going to take an informed and responsible position. If we arc kept in ignorance, we are de facto prevented from participating in the debate over the University’s future. Until now, we have received only informal remarks from you concerning the crisis and what can be done about it. Second, the Senate asks that you take a first affirmative step towards redressing the University’s crisis by convening at SUNY/B-wide Committee to coordinate actions in defense of public higher education. As President of this University, it is your responsibility to initiate work on a plan according to which the University can justify and defend itself in the face of the anti-popular pressures favoring its dismemberment. As long as you withhold your leadership from the efforts to defend the University, efforts will remain all student and faculty fragmentary, particularistic and hence ineffectual. We firmly believe that the maintenance of a first-rate public University is in the interest of the people of New York. In fact it should be their right. Those who favor the denigration of this University are working against the interests of the public, and we as University members should not be afraid to speak out against this anti-popular movement. We hope you will adopt a strong and prominent position in defense of the University and the public interest. Terry DiFilippo President Graduate Student Association No charity intended To the Editor At this time of the year many individuals and to sell goods and services. There are some people on this campus who are doing so under the pretense of a “church work.” This pretense needs to be exposed so that the people of the campus community know from whom they are buying, if they do so, and to whom the money goes. The “parent” group is called “The Unification Church," though it has some reported 40 different “offspring” organizations. The one most frequent on campus is “Collegiate Association for the Research of Principles” (CARP). All of these are founded by, belong to, and exist for the “Rev." Sun Myung Moon. It is my strong conviction (and of many others) that the Unification Church is in no way a legitimate church, but only a front for money making for the personal pleasures and very questionable activities of Sun Moon SUNY/Albany has had a recent experience with CARP and decided not to recognize the group. The NBC Weekend show had an indepth expose of this “church” earlier this the year. Many other articles have questioned of the “Moonies.” There has been practices consistent evidence of a “brainwashing” technique used on young "converts.” What youth have escaped from the Barrytown “training” center, have been described unsure of their as “spaced-out,” whereabouts, and generally disoriented with reality Strong substances of questionable composition are known to be distributed to the “trainees.” And why groups seek the primary, if not only, emphasis on youth ot impressionable ages who are asked to give all their wealth to Moon, and go out to “sell” to get more money for Moon? Moon’s own writings have stated his desire to “rule the world.” And he is quickly a vast empire of wealth gathered by his amassing “converts” who seek donations, or sell flowers, candy, bubble gum, or anything, for any amount of money they can get And these people are active on and near campus right now, and the students need to know to what especially siftce it they are giving their money quite often is “said” to be going to some “good ministry” like “youth work” or “drug abuse" aid. But nothing I have read, heard or seen yet has ever suggested or demonstrated any real programs of this “church.” They claim to be “Christians”, but Christians believe that a tree is judged by its fruits, and the only "fruits” Moon has to offer are two mansions worth S 1,475,000 and a training center of very questionable practices. There are no programs, no buildings serving the community, no work for those in need, no feeding the hungry, water for the thirsty, clothes for the naked, etc. In short, there is no evidence that suggests it is anything but a is money-making rip-off. please So will you constituency so report this t3 your the campus will know what is happening.

Working in and around the state hospital at Salem, Oregon (whose superintendent, Dr. Dean Brooks, does beautifully as McMurphy’s convincingly unconvincing psychiatrist), Forman has assembled the most creditable'bunch of crazies since Peter Brook’s Marat/Sade. The Czech director (Fireman's Ball, Loves of a Blonde) is best at peeling away the thick layers of hypocrisy and absurdity encrusting the various institutions around which we build our lives; getting from those to the corresponding layers surrounding a “real” institution seems relatively simple. In this particlar case, it isn’t Kesey’s vision of Western civilization as madhouse is far more complex than that, and can only be but between appreciated in its original form Haskell Wexler’s fine photography, the screenplay by Lawrence Hauben and Bo Goldman, and an excellent ensemble of actors, this Cuckoo’s Nest manages to escape possible cries of “Sacrilege!” very nicely. — Randall Patrick McMurphy is perhaps the perfect folk hero of the Laingian sixties and seventies. Transferred to a state mental institution from a prison work farm after the all-out act he puts on for his wardens proves successful (or so he believes, anyway), he then focuses his irrepressible instinct for rebellion on his fellow patients. One joyous fishing trip, one drunken orgy, a few shock treatments, a suicide and at least one complete later, McMurphy is, inevitably, rehabilitation silenced by the hospital establishment, a fairly obvious metaphor for The Establishment in all its wider-reaching and more insidious manifestations. As the main character in Ken Kesey’s gorgeous 1962 classic One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, — — — — Perfectly obnoxious As McMurphy Nicholson a perfect nearly impossible to else could possibly The first in the Albright-Knox Art Gallery’s 1975-76 Winter Public at the Lecture Series, a discussion of the Martha Jackson Collection Gallery by Assistant Curator Linda Cathcart, will be presented Wednesday, December 17, at 8:30 p.m. in the Gallery’s auditorium. Future programs in this series will include painter Robert Mangold’s discussion of his own work on January 14 and a presentation by Donald Walters dealing with American folk painting from the collection of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Tillou on February 11, both at the same time and place as this month’s program. Yvonne Rainer will be at the Gallery’s auditorium Thursday, December 18, at 8 p.m. for a screening of her film Lives of Performers. Co-sponsored by the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Media Study, Inc., and the University’s Center for Media Study, the screening will be followed by an informal discussion led by the filmmaker. The Barta Ballet Company, under the personal direction of Karoly Barta, internationally known choreographer, will bring its full-length performance of The Nutcracker to Buffalo for one performance only in the Villa Maria College Auditorium at 240 Pine Ridge Road on Friday. December 19 at 7 p.m. The Nutcracker , a Christmas fantasy set to the music of Tchaikovsky, is the Barta Ballet’s debut full-scale production. The company combines professional dancers with young performers from this community. Tickets for their performance are now on sale at the Statler Hilton Hotel and all other Festival outlets. Prices are $5 for orchestra seats, $4 if you don’t mind the balcony. IF WE LOOK DIFFERENT TO YOU BLAME CHRISTMAS is a perfect hero, so is Jack loud, obnoxious, McMurphy keep down for very long. (Who return from a series of shock treatments to announce, “They’ve been giving me 10,000 watts a day and I’m hot to trot. Next woman takes me on’s gonna light up like a pinball machine although Nurse and pay off in silver dollars!” Hatched, of course, does not, but then that wasn’t exactly what he meant.) His is the sort of larger-than-life character to whom legendary status comes easily; it is no accident that the film, which must necessarily use real people to represent the figures Kesey leaves to the imagination of the reader, is set in Oregon, land of Paul Bunyan and the tall tale. But the sense of humor Nicholson projects in movies like Carnal Knowledge and The Last Detail is, like McMurphy’s, a slightly perverse but very human and that humor seems perfectly fitted to the perverse bit of humanity on which he tries it out here. Brad Dourif as the stuttering Billy Bibbit, William Redfield as Harding, Will Sampson’s Chief Bromden (although his original function of silent narrator has been taken away), and all the rest of the inmates are terrific, all come to life exactly as Kesey drew them. Louise Fletcher’s Miss Hatched, a character almost as awesome as McMurphy in the novel, is reduced here to little more than your garden-variety castrating bitch, but Fletcher nevertheless does well with what she is given. Ah, but if only Ken Kesey could make his own — Because our walls Are Bulging With A Truly Marvelous Variety Of... — McMurphy brings to a head R.D. Laing’s (and Kesey’s) most crucial issue: Who really are the “crazy” ones? Is the Big Nurse, Miss Hatched, with her sadistic, voyeuristic “therapy” sessions and her waltz records during “Medication Time,” any less loony than her intimidated patients or her high-spirited nemesis? Who deserves to be put away, and who should be allowed to do the putting? Played out The questions with which Kesey plays so provocatively in his novel are hinted at briefly, if at all, in Milos Forman’s film of Cuckoo’s Nest. But as was while the movie is not good Kesey demonstrated a couple of years ago in the filmed version of his epic-sized Sometimes a Great Notion , the novelist works on so many different levels of physical and emotional experience at once that most — HOLIDAY GIFTS We Have Ever Offered With More Arriving Daily And In Every Price Category. • — movies . . • • ARTS CRAFTS ARTS MARTIAL OmtUmgALitmatan & GOURMET COOKING^ • • • HOUSE PLANTS WniAJIAcoatonmmad BONSAI (Mimttun Ported T*m) CHINA Op* -Smear, • TmSatM f^TherelSa^ difference!!! • ! • : : : : • that are • constantly updated # Small classes Center open days evenings & weekends Complete tape facilities for reviews of dass lessons and for use of supplementary materials Make-ups for missed lessons at our • center NATL M Lros : :NATL DEI al rns: : LOCATIONS IN J MANHATTAN.

Wednesday, 10 December 1975 �Basketball Bulls bounce Siena, 103 94 by Paige Miller with him. “That way there’s not too much pressure on either of us,” he said. Assistant Sports Editor Four comers success The basketball Bulls finally put it all together Monday night with their first win of the season, beating Siena 103 94 at Clark Hall. It was a very satisfying win for Buffalo, since as Bulls coach Leo Richardson said, “They’re as strong as any Division I team.” (Siena is in Both of the Bulls guards played the entire game, which, in part led Richardson to employ his “Four-corner offense” for the first time this year. Basically, the Four-corner offense is a stalling maneuver, and Richardson did not want his guards to get tired. Also, the Bulls were not moving on offense in the first half when Richardson first used the new strategy. The stall was successful in the first half, and Richardson returned to it in the second half, but the second time around it worked for a different reason than expected. “We had a one-point lead and we still weren’t moving,” Richardson explained. “Then when we went back to our normal patterns, it confused them.” Later, with under two minutes to go, the Four-corners offense helped preserve the lead, and caused Siena to commit a couple of costly fouls while trying to get the ball back. - Division II). Like the Syracuse game of last week, Buffalo was able to open a wide lead, with Siena coming back and moving ahead 87 86 on a lay-up by Tim Welchons with about five minutes left. “We never should have been in that position," said Richardson. “Our guards didn’t take care of it 11he lead | . They stopped doing what got them the lead and just went haywire.” Cooper calls signals But that’s where the similarity between the two games ended With George Cooper now running the offense instead of guard Gary Domzalski, the Bulls managed to fight off the Indian’s charge and then scored eight straight points with under four minutes remaining to put the game Bullish rebounding The Bulls’ front line also played a large role in the vicotry. Sam Pellom, the Buffalo center, once again dominated the boards and the scoring before fouling out. Forwards Vernell Washington and Sam Robinson also helped Pellom underneath, and the three-some combined out of reach. “Cooper did the things tonight that he should have done at Syracuse,” Richardson noted. “He won the game for us.” Domzalski, who also knows something about running the Bulls offense, remarked, “Coop did it all tonight.” Cooper finished with 27 points, high for the Bulls. Cooper himself didn’t seem to mind the switch from being “the other guard” to the team’s ballhandler. “I can play either way,” he said. But he was glad to have Domzalski, also an excellent ballhandler, in the backcourt to block 14 shots. Domzalski also pulled down ten rebounds, as the Bulls grabbed sixteen more rebounds than Siena, many coming on the offensive boards. Richardson was obviously pleased with the game. “Our kids didn’t quit,” he said. He also said that Buffalo’s four junior college transfers (Cooper, Washington, Robinson and back-up center Hric Spence) looked “great.” The night’s preliminary game saw the junior varsity Bulls win their second game out of three, downing Rosary Hill 54-42. It was the Baby Bulls’ defense which enabled them to come back from a half-time deficit. Rosary Hill managed to score only twelve points in the second half, and the Bulls won going away. Buffalo’s offense was a little weak with only one double-figure socrer guard Don Scott, who had 29 points. The key factor might have been the play of guard Sterling Hedley. “He’s the shortest guy out there, but he had more rebounds than anyone else [on Buffalo)said JV coach Matt Fischei. “He was really hustling.” The Bulls varsity travels to Loretto, Pennsylvania to play St. Francis today, and Saturday night they return to action at the Memorial Auditorium against Army. The Bulls beat both teams last year. — J. V. Bulls lose to Griffs in hoop contest by Ira A. Brushman Spectrum Staff Writer too tall, and not too fast reduced The Griffs of Canisius defeated the basketball Bulls 87-76 in a junior varisty contest at Canisius last Friday dight. The game was marked by accurate shooting, as both teams hit above 50 percent from the floor. The Baby Fulls were led by Donald Scott with 50 points. Freddie Brookins with 16, and Lloyd McKinnon with 10 points and 10 rebounds. Buffalo coach Matt Fischer, in his first year at Buffalo after coaching high school basketball in North Carolina, seems to have done a remarkable job of putting together a competitive unit out of a bunch of players who, in his own words are, “not Quick start Both teams slowed down and played tough, patterned basketball at the start of shots. their offense in gear and had trouble handling the red-hoi Griffs who were led by points, Harold Warfield (31 10 rebounds) and Ron Roberts (25 points).

If they played a regular hockey game, then we could’ve beaten them.” A step up The caliber of hockey played in the ECAC is different than what the “kiddies corps” is used to. Prior to coming to the Bulls, each played in a different type of league, and each was a successful scorer in their past endeavors. Patterson, a Rochester, N.Y’ native, played his last hockey with the Rochester Monarchs, a junior team in the New York-Penn league. In Rochester, Patterson was used to a high pitched “skate, skate, skate” type of offense, as opposed to the more restricted defensive hockey that the ECAC features. Grow, who has played hockey for eleven years, hails from Massena, N.Y., where he played on the starboard side for Holy Family High School. Brien came to the University of Buffalo this year after Ed Wright contacted him last April, and advised him of the advantages Buffalo has to offer. Wright had previously lured Patterson out of Rochester to skate for the Bulls.

It was nearly empty. The podium at the opposite side seemed miles away, the shallow half-circle of chairs fronting it seemed vastly empty, and the scattering of people in those chairs seemed tiny and statue-like. Off to one side, a janitor swept an empty aisle, then strolled idly to the floor microphone in the center and tapped it on the head. Somewhere amplifier scratched. The microphone was on. It was for questioners. There would be no an questioners. Flipping a mental coin, I sat in S/«P (1934) and which extends to ay P hlll ‘P Roth and Rruce Friedman, among others. (The distinction of this new tradition is that it combines secular Yiddish and brief a literature, incandescent moment literary from Mcndele to Itzik spanning Manger,” and the modernism of _^*J°yce anc Yeats, Eliot and ... * Pound, Proust and Gidc, which has shaken the very foundations of western literature.”) And two, that the Jewish family and its transformations can in some way represent all middle and upper class American families. (Her talk was for the most part referentially Commentary, she was at -e tn. Executive Editor of Harper's fnagazine) and so she is by nature and by instinct, likely to speak and write while riding smoothly on the back of some self-invented general principle or assertion, like a grand raja on top of a decorated elephant. This is fine and good; no one can s >, object to entertaining generalities and organizing schemes which originate with intelligent minds. Decter went one step asserting these than But Ms. further for assertions: she apologized them. “I am going to present you with a large and simple schema,” she said after introducing the of Henry Roth, Daniel Fuchs and Saul Bellow); the Time of the Mothers (Phillip Roth and Bruce Jay Friedman); and the Time of the Child (too recent a development to have a literature or a spokesman).

If such proposals should be instituted, students would be required to courses, lake a number of required English including expository writing. composition or Leslie Fiedler, chairman of the English nationally-known Department and a literary figure, states, “Good writing is never taught in one course or one department; it is a product of the entire university. Either everyone wants it and but then demands it, or else they don’t they blame it on the English Department.” Hidden priorities Fiedler says the English Department has not yet lost any full-time faculty to budget cuts, but if the current fiscal situation continues, he feels one might discover what to study important are of administrators, and which ones aren’t. While there has been a decline in the areas number of English majors here, said Fiedler, there has, nevertheless, been an increase in the number of non-majors taking 200-level English courses. In particular, said Fiedler, there has been a heavy demand for composition, expository writing, and creative writing classes, and a growing interest in starting some kind of program in journalism. Earlier this semester, the Office of Admissions and Records reported that 200-level English courses, especially were the composition, second most only by exceeded courses, in-demand evening management sections. Despite the increased demand, there do not seem to be any plans for providing funds so that more 200devel sections can be offered, according to offoicials in the English Department and the Faculty of Arts ahd Letters. When asked to characterize the state of the humanities both at this University and nationally, Fiedler said the picture is lull of contradictions. Nationally, he said, there has been a decline in English and language majors, and thus in the number of t+iose who will be involved in literature on the professional level. On the other hand, there has been a concurrent trend towards demand for English courses by non-majors. Fiedler sees this as an attempt by student' and teachers involved in other disciplines to broaden their knowledge as well as to learn technical writing skills. Conflict conflict the and “practical" areas such as Traditionally, there has been a between the supposedly more humanities pre-professional or professional programs, Fiedler continued. This is particularly true at this University, he said, because it has a long tradition of professional education, but also has several strong departments in including the humanities, English Department. schools and “The professional departments have a little more clout,” he said, “because they have strong links with professionals in their field and in the community. Additionally, they can point to reports of their profession’s accrediting agency to emphasize their need for increased funding. But, said Fiedler, President Robert Ketter indicated he plans to shift recourses away from weaker programs to programs that are already strong. The nationally renowned English Department is one of this University’s strongest programs. Humanities on the bottom then-Academic Affairs Vice In President Bernard Gelbaum drew heavy criticism for ranking the humanities as the lowest priority in a proposed University academic plan. T he plan, which was never passed, gave highest priority for funding and attention to applied research in the social sciences, followed by fundamental research in the naturals sciences, the professional disciplines, and finally, the humanities (including Philosophy, which is technically considered a social science). Within each group, priorities were ranked in the following order: Social Sociology, Sciences; Psychology, Geography, Economics, Anthropology, Natural Sciences; Political Science. Chemistry, departments), (now Biology two Geology (augmented by Planetary Science and Astroscience), Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science and Physics. Professions; Engineering, Architecture/Environmental Design, School of Management, Law, Education, Social Policy and Community Services, School of Information and Library language Sciences. Humanities - departments (including English), “classics literature” (including the program in Comparative Literature) and Linguistics, History, Music, Art and Photographic Studies and Philosophy. Food for the mind The plan elicited a predictable outcry from many faculty members, especially in departments considered by Gelbaum to be low priorities. The History Department in a unanimous vote condemned the plan, and the Philosophy Department prepared a long report to rebut Gelbaum’s assertion that its discipline was “Food for the mind a luxury rather than a necessity.” History Professor William Allen, in an address to the Faculty Senate in 1972, took issue with the call Gelbaum made for the University to provide specific services to the Buffalo area because “we owe it to those who pay us.” Allen said, “The notion that the University is up for sale to the and highest bidder as a service institution after certainly implied all, a is, that is revolutionary concept in the history of Western civilization, though I admit it has also been a long-standing temptation.

This article decision-making discusses processes and ownership of the mass media, and its relationship to U.S. domestic and foreign policy. by Paul Krehbiel ContributingEditor The general current running throughout James Aronson’s book, The Press and the Cold War , is that the mass media and government see communism as the biggest threat to our nation. While the press usually doesn’t openly express itself in this preferring instead to fashion project the image o f objectivity the government, and neutrality — # - large and, course, of privately-owned corporations and businesses, do. Yet the mass media has not limited its biases and distortions to involving only news items many other sectors communists of society have suffered a similar fate. Robert Cirino, author of Power to Persuade documents over 100 case studies of powerful American media decision-makers in the act of censoring, and distorting fabricating a wide range of news - , events. Women, blacks and other nationally oppressed peoples, workers, youth and students have of media been victims mistreatment. Coverage of the professions, medicine, science and technology, election campaigns and political parties, social decay and crime, space travel, the arts and entertainment have suffered media inaccuracies as well. Naughty word Cirino relates one example from the I930’s. Thomas Parron, New York health commissioner in I 934, was asked to talk on a network radio program on Public Health Needs. Specifically, he was to discuss syphilis, without using the word! Because Parron didn’t feel that he could deal with the topic adequately without naming it, he refused to delete it. The station cancelled his appearance and announced it could not begin the program due to “circumstances beyond our control.” Finally, In 1936, most stations were forced to use the word when doctors spoke on their programs though Associated Press held out until I 938. Women are slighted by the media when they are referred to by their marital status or appearance, rather than their occupation or talent as most men usually are. When the U.S. was in Vietnam, the American the media told people that the Army had just carried out "nontoxic resources which meant that control” chemical defoliation or crop destruction had taken place. The Air Force reportedly engaged in “area denial” - which meant that anti-personnel bombs and napalm was used to force people out of - 14214. Telephone: Second class postage Buffalo, New York. at year. stated: headline “Reischauer Critical of Viet Policy," while the Washington Post headlined the talk; “Reischauer backs U.S. Viet Policy.” In 1970, an Associated Press Times correspondent in Saigon sent in a dispatch about American troops looting stores and houses in Cambodia. Girino recalls that Wes Gallagher, general manager of AP deleted this episode, and the foreign editor wired the Saigon correspondent that we (AP) “must guard our copy to see that it is down the middle and subdues emotion.” Yet, crimes, real or alleged, committed by the other side were frequently given front page billing. It is probably true that the Liberation Front of National South Vietnam and the North Vietnamese tried and executed certain village leaders. But the mass media failed to tell the American people that these men were responsible for the arrest, torture and murder of scores of people who refused to submit to Saigon rule, as documented by the journalist Wilfred Burchett. Hot stuff The press knew about the March 16, 1968 My Lai massacre many they months before were publicized. Look, Life. Newsweek. United Press International (UPI), Association Press /AP a television network and newspapers in New York and Boston refused to run the story when offered to them by the Vietnam veteran, Ron Ridenhour It was only after Dispatch News Service broke the on story November 13, 1969 a year and a half after the massacre that the other news media picked it up. At this point, some of the news disseminators became more and more critical of the war. But this position was taken only because the U.S. was losing, and because it was costing too much, wasting so many American lives, and creating such widespread opposition among American youth. Nowhere did the media write that the U.S. was supporting a hated dictatorship in Saigon against a popular liberation movement. The media knew about 1972 election. While McGovern the Party Democratic attempted to raise it during the campaign, little publicity or credence was given to it. Only after Nixon was and elected,. disillusionment with him grew, did the media and Senate give it wide coverage. Even then it was due largely to the hard and persistent work of two journalists, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein of the Washington Post. Yet at this point, Nixon had become a liability the and to the smooth functioning of the country, due to his unpopular actions in Southeast Asia and his handling of domestic economic problems and internal dissent. I Cirino pointed out that ABC cancelled a half-time performance about peace during a football game at the State University in Buffalo in 1970, but ran a performance about U.S, commando raids into North Vietnam during a half-time show at another game. Almost every major newspaper received a report about a planned U.S. invasion of Cuba in late I960 and early 196 I, yel none published it. In 1961, the CIA and military group a of Cuban helped counter-revolutionaries invade Cuba at Playa Giron, resulting in scores of deaths and injuries. the 1971, In January Black Congressional Caucus requested from CBS, NBC and ABC, equal time under'the Fairness Doctrine to reply to President Nixon’s State of the Union message. three networks All refused The are almost examples endless. While some misrepresentation is likely to occur under the most equitable, honest and efficient news operation, the examples revealed by Cirino, Aronson and others are scandalous.

Eisenhower later admitted in his book, Mandate for Change, that “possibly 80 percent of the people would have voted for the communist Ho Chi Minh.” The United States government leaders probably knew this years earlier, but had other reasons for going into Vietnam. On August 4, 1953, President Eisenhower told a conference of U.S. governors in Seattle the real reasons for entering the war on the side of the former colonial power, France: “Now let us assume that we lost Indochina . . .

The course will discuss the social realities which send women to prison, and the techniques that women use to survive the prison situation. “There are different reasons why women are sent to prison, as opposed to why are sent to prison,” she said. Course requirements include, student participation in a volunteer project associated with a jail, detention center, or the Buffalo Women’s Prison Project, This type of work will be arranged by the student, with the aid of WSC. “Women have been ‘locked up’ in various ways throughout history,” Porter stated. “The course will attempt to determine what kind of social realities caused this.” “Women Locked Up” will also consider the living conditions for women in prisons. “Over 80 percent of women incarcerated have children. We want to explore the forces which affect their children’s lives as well,” she said. men Other courses The historical and social experiences of women will be considered a course designed to in “Social History of Women in the U.S. 1875 focus on the social expectations and limitations under which women lived I 00 years ago. According to one student, Sheryl Karp, the course “will look at the ideologies affecting women of all creeds and nationalities from 1865 through the present day.” The course will place a special emphasis on women in Buffalo and the roles that they played in the development of culture and business in Buffalo. Other Women’s Studies College courses open to everyone include “The Psychology of Women: Toward A New Self-Concept,” a course centering on possible psychological differences between men and women in American culture. “Women and the Welfare System,” “Women in Film,” “Black Matriarchy,” and “The Politics of Health” are other Spring Semester offerings of Women’s Studies College.

HeroMing Rosenberg spy case Son speaks of witch hunt by Rob Cohen Spectrum Staff Writer The controversial 1953 execution of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg as “atomic spies” was the subject of a lecture by one of the Rosenberg’s two surviving sons, Michael Meeropol, in the Fillmore Room last supposed to be the focal point of the trial. Only when they refused to involve others was the spotlight turned on them. Also, the Rosenbergs invoked their Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination when they were asked whether they were members of the Communist Party, which “probably sealed their fate.” Wednesday. Rosenbergs, who were convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage after a long and empassioned trial, had allegedly betrayed the “secret” of the atom bomb to the Russians. However, Meeropol asserted that his parents were the innocent victims of the anti-communist hysteria which swept the country during the “McCarthy Era,” and he summarily dismissed what he called the “phony issue” of the theft of the atom bomb secret. Many top scientists have in fact denied that this secret has ever really existed, Meeropol claimed. He called his parent's trial a government frameup which was guilt on false evidence and perjured testimony. Meeropol maintained that the Rosenberg case is a sensational example of an intensive effort, typical of those conducted by the government during the Red-scare years of the late 1940’sand early 1950’s. The Brainwashed These government campaigns were designed to frame “recognizable leftists as spies" and thus discredit the Left, he explained. Meeropol wants his parents' case reopened and has already been successful in securing the release of 29,000 pages of relevent FBI tiles. He believes that the files will verify both his parents' innocence and the intricately contrived government frameup. Following World War 11, the American people were brainwashed into believing that domestic radicalism and foreign (especially Communist) espionage were somehow linked, Meeropol charged, adding that the reopening of the case would expose this brainwashing at its roots. He said that through a deliberate pattern of perjured testimony induced through coercion of individuals by the governmentand trial presentation of knowingly false evidence, government prosecutors hoped to create “the biggest spy case in United States history." Aided by a massive smear campaign in the press, the Rosenbergs, Alger Hiss and others were framed in this way, Meeropol asserted. Psychopathic liar Briefly recounting the case, he explained that Harry Gold, a Philadelphia chemist, whom he labeled a “psychopathic liar,” had confessed to being the courier for the notorious Russian undercover agent, Klaus Fuchs. Gold informed the FBI that David Greenglass, Ethel’s brother, was one of his contacts and Greenglass later implicated both of the Rosenbergs in the conspiracy by advancing “phony” evidence, he said. Greenglass, a wartime machinist at the Los Alamos nuclear test installation in New Mexico, promptly cooperated with the government authorities who had acquired knowledge of his prior criminal dealings in contraband. After the Rosenbergs were implicated, they refused to cooperate with the FBI, which motivated the government to hold the death sentence over their heads in hopes of making them talk_ Meeropol said his parents were not originally Table spy He described a whole gamut of judicial improprieties and fabrications in an attempt to convince the audience that the affair was really a frameup and that he was not “merely spouting rhetoric,” including a prosecution claim that a certain table in the Rosenberg’s possession purchased at Macy’s for $21.00 was actually a gift of the Russians to be used for the processing of microfilms. A pre-trial remark by presiding Judge Irving Kaufman that he was willing to use the death sentence if warranted by the evidence reflects his prejudicial attitude and complicity with the government, Meeropol claimed. “The judge was a second prosecutor.” Additionally, the recently released government files showed that the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) released classified information to make it appear that sensitive atomic secrets were stolen, Meeropol said. There are “some striking parallels between my parents’ example and current political prisoner cases," such as Martin Sostre. Sostre. while serving a twelve-year prison term on a narcotics conviction, kicked his drug habit, adopted the Muslim faith and became a spokesman for prisoner’s rights. Jailhouse lawyer Following hts release from prison in 1965, Sostre opened an Afro-American bookstore in Buffalo, whereupon he was continuously harassed by the police, Meeropol explained. During the black ghetto riots of 1967 here, Sostre was charged with inciting to not and illegal sale of heroin. The first charge was eventually dropped, but he was convicted on the heroin count. During his incarceration, Sostre became a jailhouse lawyer representing prisoner’s rights, which infuriated prison authorities. In 1971 he successfully represented himself in the landmark case Sostre t’. Rockefeller in which the court held that extended subjection of prisoners-to solitary confinement was “cruel and unusual punishment" and therefore unconstitutional. Also in 1971, the trigger man who was the principal witness against Sostre at his heroin trial retracted his testimony in a group therapy session. One day stay After Soslre was denied retrial by a Federal District court judge who justified his decision in language very similar to the denial in the Hurricaine Carter case, Meeropol explained, Sostre appealed to a higher court. Ironically, however, the Circuit Court of Appeals judge who refused to overturn the District Court decision was the same Judge Kaufman who invoked the death penalty on the Rosenbergs. In tribute to the former United States Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas, Meeropol said Douglas acted unilaterally to stay the Rosenberg execution after a stay was defeated in a 5-4 decision by the full Court. Although Douglas was subsequently overruled by the Full Court, he succeeded in delaying the execution by one day. Monday, 8 December 1975 . The Spectrum .

A man of Illinois, Dan terminated his art studies at the University there and headed west. In California, Fogelberg discovered a few things: The Troubadour, Hollywood, and how much he hated that particular lifestyle. ‘The River,” an autobiographical song dedicated to his home, was written at this time: How I longed for the waters As the fire raged How I longed for the river As I aged Dan’s next big move was to Nashville, where he began to hang out with Norbert Putnam, Kenny Buttrey and David Briggs, all Neil Young alumni.

Playing 56 sold-out concerts is a great asset to anyone’s career, and nothing could have helped Dan more. Of course, one great disadvantage is the audience’s constant raving for the headliner. No problem Fogelberg sparkled, aided by Fool’s Gold, his back-up. He was called back for an encore almost as loudly as the Eagles and caused the crowd to roar with delight when he returned to sing and play piano during “Best of My Love.” In July, the Eagles and Fogelbert went their separate ways. The Eagles continued in their usual style, and Fogelberg toured selected dates in a bus. One hot night, the Eagles played at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City. Fogelberg was opening that evening for Hot Tuna in Asbury Park, and rumors flew thickly about his possible presence at the Eagles show. Not only did he show, but was accompanied by his buddies Walsh and Souther. No longer did people ask “Who’s that?” It wasn’t even necessary for Glenn Frey to say “Here’s our good friend, Dan Fogeljperg.” All 35,000 of us knew here was the brightest new talent in a genre that’s glutted with hypes. “Practice makes perfect” goes the old saying, and Fogelberg’s long efforts have resulted in one of the best albums of 1975. In description, Glenn Frey once called Captured Angel" . . . real pretty. Danny’s doing some real nice things now." Thanks, Glenn, but that line defines understatement. Dan's latest release is a veritable masterpiece, with all instruments and vocals done by Fogelberg himself. The only exceptions are David Findley on fiddle, old standby Kunkel on drums and J.D.

When budget cuts were announced this past summer, though, they followed some of the plan. While faculty dismissals by not filling vacant positions, two out of three part-time faculty were laid off in the History Department (the other was a lecturer in Adult Education), and two out of three faculty full-time laid off were in Philosophy (the other was in Sociology).

The of this time literature The characteristically centers on families dominated by the father He was “the one to fear, to fight, to yearn for the approval of,” but at the same time crush of an alien American society left “many of these fathers in a somewhat fragile condition While the strengths were “moral,” the weaknesses of this father-centered time were ” "psychic.” With coming second-generation prosperity (many men were ‘‘lucky,’' Ms. Decter said), the father was no longer the “magnetic center” of “Making a living” household. provided him with “society, a place m the world . . . The household becamfc his wife’s." It was a time “manners, dominated by the graces, fantasies about another life in the future, aspirations towards the luxuries of culture." While tl\e literature of the Time of the F athers was one of “cosmic seriousness,” the literature of the lime of the Mothers was “a literature of high, or if you will, a time tomedy low metaphorically dominated by Mrs Portnoy who never "had anything on her mind for a single minute but darling, sexy, adorable, her brilliant son Alex.” In a reversal of the Time of Ihe Fathers, this new chapter in which the family was by dominated Ihe mother : including two members who carry out administrative duties. Hare told The Spectrum that he would not have resigned had the cuts been confined to one or two years.

Phillip Roth is a great literary comedian, hut literary comedy may not be great for him or. finally, forart. What about the third and final chapter? “We know what period we are in,” said the author of the recent Liberal Parents, Radical Children "We are in the period where the child is the magnetic of the household The basic facets of this latest chapter are that with the right "system." children will be “perpetually pleased with life" and that though this belief in the perfectabihty ot children is not compatible with Jewish philosophies, it is “taken center " on, propagated, broadcast, taught and worshipped by Jews," At this point, the scope ol Ms to include, implicitly, American families in general. After all. the Time of the Children, though it may complete a schema invented to illuminate the Jewish family through Jewish Decter’s talk widened literature, applies just as easily to what is lazily known these days as the Philosophy Department Chairman Peter Hare resigned two weeks ago, blasting the administration for forcing the Department to terminate the two most recently hired professors. Since the 1970-71 academic year, Hare said, the Department has been cut from 38 faculty positions to 26, marked for elimination at the same time and administrators suggested a Midge Decter Jay Friedman); and the l ime of the Child (too recent a development to have a literature or a spokesman), hach of these chapters, claims Ms. Decter, exist “not so much in historic time as in spiritual time,” Limits of tolerance averted “Youth Culture.'’ Alex or his immediate has become counterpart today Portnoy “Hvery C hild.” (I reflect how often 1, an intractable and full-blooded guy , have felt like the Jewish son of a Jewish mother if Alex and his mother are the archetypes.) I he weaknesses here are both moral and psychic: “The home in which a little child is the center of gravity is a home in which nothing The new weight. has any from page 1 generation weightlessly,” according to Ms. Decter, “and therefore in great anxiety.” In the context of a new, professionally legitimate “new public morality” a lives child is left to himself to decide questions of life or death that have come off the ground and seem to float around without gravity just out of reach. No wonder,” she continued “so many of these together and children banded at passing every clutched astrology, irrationulist nonsense eating zen even seaweed, witchcraft all of which promised them some perfection.” Mere Jewish literature becomes simply one of the base models for a new urban literature. children Jewish-A merican the shadow of suffering in perfectahility become all American children, and Midge Decter instead of being lust another maker of schemas about a single phenomenon (here the Jewish family and how it has changed), becomes “I very Mom.” "No wonder," she continues, still puzzled at the attraction of “irxalionalisl nonsense" among youth, "so many of them simply collapsed under the burden." The literature of this new chapter, the I ime of the Children, does not exist yet: "Perhaps it will he a cry ot self-pity, perhaps it will be a declaration of salvation Whatever it will he, this literature tor those will be "nostalgic . days when one way and another the sal behind his father newspaper, one way or another the mother was adding strength, and lor all its miseries, life was a place where every thing you did mattered and had consequence and was either blessed or cursed by Ciod."

Really strange group. Supposedly they started with a guy called (paper noises) yeah, here it is Joachim of Floris in the 16th century. The Illuminati were sort of a bunch of groupies to this guy. Another strange thing is the continued mention of Atlantis. The two are mentioned in Britannica, too. Also this bunch of weirdos is mentioned in Daraul’s History of Secret Societies and several times in Eliphas Levi. I just received some photos and translations of some really old Egyptian glyphs with that sign from the back of a dollar bill. That pyramid and eye thing is their secret symbol and . . . Hey boss, this series is really great. At first I had - - - - Shea seems they just appeared one day, dropped off the manuscript, arranged to pick up any a little trouble getting into it what with the crazy double time tracks and all that drug talk. You know me never touch the stuff; well hardly ever. Basically it is a really great adventure yarn dealing with a thousands of years old conspiracy to immanentize the eschaton "that’s their phrase, the baddies, to mean bring about the end of the world. And these guys, the Illuminati, are really everywhere. They control the commies, the corporations, the youth culture, even the DAR. How mean can you get, huh, boss? And boss, wait until you meet the bad guys. There’s a porpoise that talks in rhyming couplets and a computer named FUCKUP, that’s short for, oh never mind that for now. You’ll get all that when you read this really great series. And there is a guy called Hagbard Celine who programs self-destruct mynah birds.

He lives on a gigantic golden submarine with some really great gals and the guy who really shot Kennedy maybe both of them. The whole damn thing is erotic, funny, erotic, mystical and really great.

Zodiaque is a complete circuit, a circle. And Zodiaque is a unique company of University faculty, graduates and students, united by their mutual love for dance. “I was interested in making a name that would leave you open to all things,” said director Linda Swiniuch of Zodiaque, now in its third year of production. Zodiaque and Friends , presented this past weekend by the Department of Theater Dance Program, lived up to its multiple definitions by touching on the avante garde and utilizing the theatrical and artistic qualities that modern dance exemplifies.

Untitled II made use of the prince dancing style popularized by Peter Gennarro’s dancers or the Tom Hansen Dancers. Live electronic music by David Gutzka added excitement while the dance gave Gutzka’s music expression and direction. Perhaps the most difficult piece was a series of Process, improvisations called Atone, Two, Triangle, and Quartet. Although the dancers knew in advance the type of dance they would he expected to do, there were no prior rehearsals. The dancers were responsible for blending their movements so that there would be no perceived difference in the rhythm or direction of the action of the group. Swiniuch would shout, “Go!” and “30-seconds” placing more of a demand on the dancers to start and end the piece in a creative way without losing their unity. Ouch! The theme for Two was “energy and release.” This was a unique performance in that it was theater improvisation in the strictest sense Also in this vein was Quartet which centered around “qualities” such as HOT!

Page seven �This is Zionism Guest Opinion When the Jews, exiled from their land in the Editor's Note: 7 he following, written by former columnist Barry Kaplan, first appeared in the November 29. 1972 issue of The Spectrum. In the student community there is a famous saying that begins to circulate around this time of year. It is the old “Waddya gonna do next year?” This question, usually seniors, is graduating frequently directed toward frown, loud a worried and faked by groans, accompanied nonchalance. The business majors, the science majors and the rest of the embryonic professional class smile in the knowledge that at least there is some task that they are trained to handle. The liberal arts major, whatever the field of study, knows that unless graduate school awaits, there is precious little that he or she can do in the cold and cruel world that lies outside this pristine tower of intellectual trivia. This very real problem that most graduating seniors face American emphasizes the growing problems facing liberal arts” institutions of higher learning. The old education which was designed for an elite class in a different world is under attack from two disparate sources. There is one side which calls for a great reduction in the “liberal arts” concept and increased emphasis on science, math, and business, and other specific and readily usable skills. “ The space competition of the seventies along with increased research in the military sphere increased the demand for technical rather than general skills. Along with these factors was the increasing complexity of modern urban life which necessitated knowledge in specific rather than general areas. Thus the B.A. in History, or English, or Sociology found that the range of options was narrowing. The college degree in itself is losing the prestige it once had due to the increasing number of students that are going to colleges. From a small fraction of the population in previous decades, the percentage of college age youth going to college has risen to the astronomical figure of almost 50 percent. In essence, the success of colleges in educating America’s youth has ironically undercut the job value of a college degree, especially if it lies in the area commonly called “liberal arts.” The other trend, which manifested itself during the sixties, was opposition to the concept of the University as an impersonal training factory which would eventually fit you into your own slot in society. The Free Speech Movement at Berkeley in 1964 was primarily concerned with this notion of the University as a degree factory, turning out the fodder for the American corporate structure. This movement, which grew in one form or another on most college campuses, resulted in many educational reforms and innovations, many of which can be seen on this campus alone. The Colleges, credit-free courses, the American Studies, increased relaxation of many traditional requirements, plus many new and sometimes esoteric courses are all indications of the new direction of many of the students. The emphasis was not on the traditional humanities, or the job oriented sciences but on personal growth and intellectual development. As a result, the implication for the traditional “liberal arts” courses seem to be quite bleak. As a good friend of mine puts it: “What the hell can you do with a degree in history, besides teach?” As a result of all of the above factors, the traditional debate between proponents of a “liberal arts” education vs. a narrow technical education has hit an all time high. Should the University be a place where a student gets a general education, or should the University become an upper grade vocational center sending out trained specialists? It all comes down to a simple question which has a complex answer; what is the role of the modern university in a world which has no need for people with a “liberal arts” education? As this question is being discussed and analyzed by university administrators, there is the very real problem of having an education which cannot even get you more than a quick glance on the job market. For all of the seniors that are in the field of “liberal arts” and are not going to Law, Dental or Medical school, the future does not seem too bright. There is no doubt that a “liberal arts” education is a good one to possess, but there is much to say, especially at graduation time, of the value of a specific skill or trade. So as the saying goes, “Waddya gonna do next year?” Page eight . The Spectrum .

Zionism is as sacred to the Jewish People as the national liberation movements are to the nations of Africa and Asia. Even if the Arab states are locked today conflict with the Jewish National in Liberation Movement, they must not stoop in their attitude towards it to the fanaticism and barbarism of the Nazis. If there is to be hope for peace in the Middle East, there must be between Israel and the Arab states mutual respect for each others’ sacred national values not distortion and abuse. Zionism was not born in the Jewish ghettos of Europe, but on the battlefield against imperialism in ancient Israel. It is not an outmoded nationalistic revival but an unparalleled epic of centuries of resistance to force and bondage, those who attack it attack the fundamental principles and provisions of the United Nations Charter. nations. cooperation - Selwyn Talk Reading the fine print accepted and practiced by campus newspapers.

This resolution is likely to hamper progress towards peace by means of negotiations between the parties, without prior conditions, and to sabotage the peace efforts in the region. The Government of Israel views Security Council Resolutions 242 and 338 as accepted by Israel as the sole basis for peace negotiations in the region. On November 1 1, 1975, the Knesset resolved “The Knesset rejects the Resolutions adopted on November 10, 1975, in the United Nations Assembly in denunciation of Zionism and the State of Israel. The Knesset determines that the Assembly’s Resolutions encourage Israel’s enemies in plotting against peace.

It also destroyed one school and tens of civilian houses. The- Israeli military official said this is the language Israel will be using with the Palestinians. Moreover, he added, such actions may be repeated. Yet not a single word has been said in the press in criticizing these actions. Not a single editor Buffalo newspapers and in the New York Times bothered to at least mention that in this raid only, the Israeli soldiers have killed more civilians than the number of Israeli civilians and military killed by the Palestinian guerillas in the last two years. Not even one of the peace loving advocates who are always the first to call the Palestinians terrorists, have shown at least displeasure because of this massacre. the It rs very unfortunate that whoever controls media here wnats only one side of the story to be seen and heard. That’s why the death of hundreds of Palestinian children will be mentioned without comments in a three line paragraph in the last page, while if an Israeli soldier is wounded we’ll read about him in the first page of the newspaper, see him on the TV and listen to his mother crying, what happened to her child And this makes me wonder. Once again - - John Thus The SpECTi^uM Tlie Graduate Student Association (GSA) is alive, well and working for student rights and concerns in this year of cutbacks and recession. Students often don't realize that though they may not be personally affected by cutbacks, the whole educational system is in grave and serious financial trouble, if we don’t speak out in a united action. Presently, the GSA Executive Committee is in need of concerned students to press budget administrators in the SUNY system and local, state and federal legislators to take a more active stand and interest in higher education. Millions of “our" tax dollars are pumped into private institutions that “we” don’t attend, yet along with our parents, we pay for. That money could be used to increase efficiency in "our" libraries, “our" athletic and recreational programs, “our" leaching staff, and for the expansion of educational departments and programs, which are being axed. Cutbacks affect not only educational quality and administrative offices, but it can affect food service and bookstore prices, and the availability of products sold; tuition, fees, grants, stipends and work study jobs, commuter bus services, just to mention a few! Cutbacks are affecting faculty and staff (which in many cases are students) in unpleasant ways. Departments are fighting amongst themselves and in many cases peoples’ careers, friendships and integrities are being destroyed because of fears of being cut back, cut-down and cut-out!!! As students, it is our responsibility to take an active part in how cutbacks are directly and indirectly affecting not only our right to learn, but our faculty’s right to teach.

The fact that the lake is a deep one is irrelevant because the monster, presumably a reptile, would have to surface occasionally to breathe. I suppose I can anticipate that people will remind me of the coelacanth fishes, thought to be extinct since the age of dinosaurs and then discovered alive in 1938. However, once the existence and significance of this four foot fish (hardly a monster) became known, over a dozen specimens have been captured and from the open ocean, not a lake. I fail to understand why a well'planned and equipped expedition, using such things as sonar devices and, perhaps, even a manned submersible could not kill or capture a Loch Ness monster within a few hours. If they have been around for centuries, there must be more than one to keep the population — an elaborate and expensive expedition. In fact. I would judge that the most severe poaching penalties the British government could impose would not deter any would-be captors, so great would be the monetary rewards! There is no Loch Ness Monster. Nor is there a Big-Foot monster, either in the remote wilderness of Tibet or on the thickly overpopulated west coat of U.S. All large animals on earth have been discovered, except possibly at the subspecies level and I doubt that. The problem with large animals lies not in saving them but from in discovering them extermination. Yes, there are monsters, beautiful, big monsters The whales, the bears, the big cats. It is my wish that people forget the absurdly fictitious ones and concentrate upon protection of those that are for real but not for long. - Edward J Buehler Professor of Paleontology and Monsterology Social work students deserted Monday, 8 December 1975 Editor in-Chief The number 20 has been cited a reasonable figure. Small populations tend to go quickly to extinction, although the exceptionally long life span of large reptiles may be a modifying factor here.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief We, the students of the Undergraduate Social Work Department at this University, feel that once again Dean Sherman Merle has overlooked our needs. Rather than expend the time and money to seek accreditation of a program specifically designed to meet the guidelines of the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE), he has decided that this is not a necessary step in our professional career. Besides the professional recognition of our program that accreditation would accrue, it would also enable students to apply for advanced standing at certain major universities such as Columbia and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, which only pffer it to undergraduates from accredited programs. Accreditation is also a stipulation to be eligible for immediate “regular-full” membership in the National Association of Social Workers, a CSWt Division of Standards and Accreditation, has stated in a letter that “the proposed termination o( the baccalaureate social work program at SUNV Buffalo would in and of itself not affect adversely accreditability between now and the time ol termination.” We believe that we will be favorable reviewed adn we are not alone in this belief. Other faculty members, particularly undergraduate Gerald Miller, concur. In Friday’s November 21, 1975 issue of The Spectrum, he state: “I see no reason why the program should not be accreditated, pursue the administration decides to if accreditation.” It is unfortunate that Dean Merle, at a time when the merit and worth of accredited degrees are being professionally recognized, had deserted his students by taking this opportunity away from them. professional organization.

Tip-off is at 8:15 p.m. following the completion of the Baby Bulls’ game with Rosary Hill that gets underway at 6:15 p.m. Committee forms to bring back football The move to return football to the State University at Buffalo will take a major step forward this afternoon with the first meeting of a newly-formed committee dedicated to resurrecting the grand old game. The committee, which is officially unnamed at the present time, is being organized by Bullpen Editor-in-Chief Dave Hnath and Student Athletic Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia. The meeting will be held this afternoon at 1 p.m. in Room 266 Norton Hall, and membership on the committee is open to all members of the University community. If enough support is gathered by the committee, Hnath hopes to bring a definite proposal to Student Association (SA) for a football program to get underway next fall. Rah, rah Hnath claimed that there is currently sizeable student support to reinstitute football at Buffalo. He felt there are nearly enough signed petitions to bring about a student referendum concerning football, but he added that more signatures will be solicited to show additional support. “We’re trying to get students to say ‘yes, we want football back’,” he remarked. Funding for the proposed team could possibly Come from a reallocation of athletic funds. However, if more funding is needed, Hnath said that SA and the Buffalo Alumni Association will be asked to help. Hnath believes that a Division HI team could be funded for about $1 5,000. In the past, SA has been reluctant to allocate any more than minimal funding to 'ntercollegiate athletics. But Hnath pointed out that SA President Michele Smith made a statement in the October 17 Bullpen which implied that SA could be convinced to support football. She said, “If it is indicated in future surveys that students wish a reallocation within the present level of funding, 1 would not necessarily oppose it.” Swim Sports Quiz Sports Quiz undergoes a slight face lift this week.

With many of their top swimmers returning and an influx of new Having completed what talent, their hope may become a reality. Last year was highlighted by a barrage of new individual records. Freshman George Finelli broke a number of school records in spring events while fellow freshman Ted Brenner was shattering marks in the backstroke practically every time he swam. In addition to these two first year members, distance man Dan Winter, who has graduated, and diver Kei! Wurl also found places in the Buffalo record book. This year, despite the loss of many excellent swimmers due to graduation, the Bulls appear to be strong in many of the areas that kept them afloat last season. What makes the team’s prospects look so good is that top new swimmers have been added where others have left off. Frosh phenom Among the most promising is Peter Jarenka, a 21-year old freshman. Coach William Sanford has been very impressed with Jarenka and feels that in time, it is possible that he could do some record-breaking of his own Jarenka’s specialties are the 50 and 1 00-yard freestyles. heir apparent to Winter’s place on the roster as the top man is freshman Steve Pawlawski.

Tomasso Spectrum Staff Writer SYRACUSE - Few of the estimated 4,600 people at the Manley Field House on Wednesday Bulls the basketballs to be stiff expected competition for the Syracuse Orangemen. After all, Syracuse was an NCAA semi-finalist last year, while the Bulls were trying to improve an 8—17 record. But Syracuse’s top two scoreers had graduated, While Buffalo had brought in four new junior college recruits to add to the nucleus of last year’s team, and for the game’s first 30 minutes, the unexpected Buffalo was leading. Syracuse finally happened staged a comeback to produce a 87—77 win, but Buffalo convinced most observers that the team was — strong. minutes, the Bulls into Syracuse turnovers, rebounding well and hitting the open man with their passes. Bulls’ center Sam Pellom was the dominant force, pulling down 15 rebounds in the first half alone, while scoring 16 points. Pellom finished the game shooting 14 for 20 for 28 points with 22 rebounds. During controlled first action, those the 30 forcing Bulls conquer jitters Bulls coach, Leo Richardson, attributed Buffalo’s lead to the fact that his players were getting used to big-time basketball. Last Saturday, at Indiana State, the Bulls had butterflies in their stomachs, according to Richardson. With ten minutes remaining in Wednesday night’s contest and the Bulls leading by eight, things the Gary Domzalski, turned. Guard team’s quarterback, committed his fourth foul, and Richardson took him out. The next six times down the court, Buffalo never got a shot off, as Syracuse scored nine points in a row to take the lead for the first (and last) time. “We just don’t have that other guard yet,” said Richardson. “George (Cooper) hasn'/rt fit into our system completely. We’re going to have to develop some poise and confidence in ourselves.” Buffalo was also getting into severe foul trouble. Eventually three Bulls fouled out while three others The had four fouls each. At about the same time. Orange forwards Marty Byrnes and Chris Sease got hot, while freshman Dale Schackleford came off the bench to score 14 points, and Syracuse slowly widened its lead throughout the rest of the game. Good officiating? According to many observers, including some Syracuse University officials, the referees did more damage than the Orangemen’s front line. This was obvious in the one statistic which is directly free throws. Syracuse controlled by the officials went to the charity stripe 37 times, compared to just six attempts for tire Bulls, and out-scored Buffalo by 20 points there. “That’s where we lost it,” said Richardson. One case in point was Gary Domzalski’s crucial fourth foul. After dribbling through a crowd of three Syracuse defenders and being hacked by each of them, Domzalski was called for an offensive foul when he finally passed the ball. Overall, Richardson was happy with the Bulls’ performance. “They gave 100 percent. I can t ask any more of them,” he said. “The one exception [when I wasn’t happy) was when I took Gary out.” - JV squad wins "''he junior varsity Bulls made Matt Fisher’s coaching debut a successful one with a 69-67 come from behind victory. Trailing by nine points in the second half, the Bulls came back to take a onp point lead, mainly through the efforts of guards Don Scott and Sterling Medley. However, with 20 seconds left, Scott took a poor shot and Buffalo center Lloyd McKinnon could not control the rebound as Syracuse took possession. Orangemen center Todd Macy was fouled while driving the baseline and connected on one of his two free throws to tie the score with 12 seconds left. Buffalo brought the ball upcourt and a pass was knocked out of bounds with just five seconds to go. Bulls forward Fred Brookins took the inbounds pass and missed on a 20 foot jumpshot, but Medley was here to tip in the rebound with time running out. Medley was the Baby Bulls high scorer with 17 points. “To have a perfect athletic department, a school would need a variety of programs for both men and women consisting of everything from intramural to intercollegiate sports and the facilities to house them.” This is the sports gospel according to William Sanford, Associate Professor of the School of Health Education. He feels that Buffalo lacks in both of the above categories, especially facilities. Sanford, who has more titles than a card catalog, is generally known as Buffalo’s varsity swimming coach, but he also doubles as Clark Gym Director of Aquatics and Facilities Coodrinator. A veteran of Clark Hall, Sanford was a student here <md a faculty member for 28 years. During this time he has witnessed massive growth in the population of this University along with an absence of corresponding growth in the athletic department. “In 1935, our department was more than adequate for the student body, but now we’re bulging at the seams,” Sanford observed. It is to this fact that he attributes the downfall of the athletics department, and hence the downfall of the high degree of school spirit which Buffalo once had.

He feels it builds character and spirit, and also adds to the physical and moral well being of the student body. “If we had the facilities we need to accommodate our student body, I would bet that many students would stop down to the gym in their spare time instead of the pub. The biggest problem in the athletic department today is the lack of facilities, according to Sanford. “Calls come in daily asking tor room that just isn't available,” he observed. In fact, such a call was phoned into Sanford right after he made that remark. He feels that better facilities would attract better athletes and as a result larger spectator crowds. “Did you ever watch a swimming match," he.asked. "It’s like a sweat box up there on the balcony." Sanford also feels that (lie overall quality of the varsity teams might improve with better facilities. “It we had better physical education facilities, we’d have a belter chance of recruiting athletes, hy offering them a good physical as well as academic education, he noted. A mark, a yah Money may not be everything to some people, but it is to the Physical Education Department. Since the state is unable to increase the physical education department’s budget to allow for increases in population, the financial burdens are falling on the students. Unfortunately, in Sanford’s opinion, the student body is not able to carry the weight of the entire sports department alone. The idea of a mandatory student athletic fee has been thrown around sporadically. Sanford believes that such a fee would save the physical education department but could not he considered the ultimate solution. In his opinion, (he state would eventually have to come through with additional funds. If neither the state nor the students comes through continued on page 14 Monday, 8 December 1975 .

Lake ErieTnay still be threatened. Recent state-wide economic cutbacks have eliminated at least half of the positions that were occupied in the DEQ. This means, commented a staff member of the Great Lakes Laboratory, “that the lake may suffer.” “Since the strength of the DEQ will be weakened, so will its enforcement,” the staff member added. Lake Erie’s purity now depends on the cooperation of other ecological agencies and of industry. “If companies keep on working along the lines that they are working now,” stated the staff member, “Lake Erie is in no danger.” The only apparent evident problem that may arise is that if industry takes advantage of the cutback. “When the law isn’t enforced, industry can more or they please,” claimed less the staff member. The one hope in keeping up the lake’s standards is that the public will show concern. Only if the people demand that DEQ’s positions be reinstated, will DEQ have the power to protect the laws that govern the existence of Lake Erie. • ACROSS : which controls the entrance of nutrients into the lake, can now remove almost 95 Contrary to popular belief, percent of these nutrients instead Lake Erie is no longer a “dead of the usual 20 percent.

Sanford feels that the most important thing would be to preserve the present teams as they stand now. If this were impossible, then he would try to maintain the sports that are generally pursued by stude*nts after graduation, such as swimming, golf, tennis and squash. Any further cuts would mean fhe end of some athletic program at Buffalo Despite the gum picture which Sanford paints, he icmains optimistic that the physical education department will be saved. He appears to have great faith in the student body and looks toward the students for financial aid in the future. Sanford expects that if lire sludenls come through, the state will pitch in also. “Buffalo is a sports town with good facilities and good coverage from the media, particularly The Spectrum , and we should be able to keep from going under.” Sanford hopes that the future Will bring about his life-long dream. He's like to see the university as a place where students could go and have a sense of school spirit and pride, somewhat like that of the "Old UB.” Sanford feels that the way to do this is through a unifying force, such as sports. 21^)104 WARGAMES Ancients Napoleonic* English Civil War $6.95 Monday, 8 December 1975 Priestly Thoroughly Library STAGECOACH, CASABLANCA. . 23 Crimean port edited by Richard J Anobile BUSTER KEATON'S THE GENERAL The 1927 silent film classic reconstructed through 2 100 sequential frame blow-ups and title cards. $5.95 Also in this series The Spectrum Disconnect Detroit suburb Gather apain The Film Classics original dialogue. . 0 10 11 12 13 18'Goes Frequently: Poet. .62 See 1 Across 63 Foot the bill Actress Bayes Mellowing 64 “The Bridge on _ ROUBEN MAMOULIAN'S DR.

Zero population growth (ZPG), defined as “an equilibrium between birth and death rates in a given period of time,” became a vertibale household word with the publication of The Population Bomb, by Paul Ehrlich in 1968. The book made millions of Americans .aware of the problems associated with population expansion and enlarged the field of demography, or population predictions. Yet due to the larger proportion of women of childbearing age, births will continue to outnumber deaths in the United States for many years to come. When fertility rates in the United States reached all-time lows in 1973 and again in 1974, some people misinterpreted these figures as the attainment of the ZPG goal. Actually, although the total fertility rate dropped to 1.8 children born per woman in 1974, the population continued to increase, though somewhat more slowly than before. To this day, projections continue to differ. Donald Bogue, author of Principles of Demography, has stated that the U.S. population will stabilize by the year 2000 at a level somewhere between 250 million and 260 million. On the other hand, the editors of The Other Side have predicted a climb to 675 million by the year 2050. Growth rate doubles The rate of growth of a population depends on changes in fertility, mortality and migration. A population grows through natural increase (births minus deaths), net immigration, or a combination of both. The annual growth rate for the United States in 1974 was almost 0.8 percent. Although a seemingly inconsequential number, the growth rate can be compared to the compounding of interest on a bank savings account. Each year’s growth is added to the “principal,” or the population size, so that the rate applies to a number that becomes steadily larger. If the 1974 growth 0.8 percent were to be 1974 population would 420 million and would in the year 2154. rate in the United States of maintained indefinitely, the double in about 90 years to double again to 840 million Confusion over figures Figures of birth and death rates are very misleading and often misunderstood. The crude birth rate is influenced by the female proportion of the population in its reproductive years, ages 15 through 44. When there are more women of child bearing age, even if the fertility rate does not change, the crude birth rate increases. The crude birth rate is also influenced by the average age of the population. If fertility levels decline from the low level of 1975, the population will “age” in the sense that its median age will go up as fewer newborn are added to the total. This will increase the number of women in the total population who are beyond the likely age of childbearing so that even if fertility rates were not to change, the crude birth rate would decline in the long run. Temporarily, however, the U.S. crude birth rate can be expected to increase as the reproductive proportion of the female population is swollen by the maturing children of the post-war baby boom which peaked in 1957. As an example of how misleading figures can be, the New York Times reported on March 16, 1975 that “in 1974, the birth rate moved up.” In fact, the crude birth rate did increase slightly from 1973 to 1974, and the number of births also went up for the first time. However, the general fertility rate for women between the ages of 15 and 44 dropped during those same years. Change in age contradiction The explanation for this seeming contradiction is simply a change in age distribution. Between 1973 and 1974 the number of women of childbearing age grew by 2 percent so that the proportion of the population able to have children increased. Thus the number of births and the crude birth rate would be expected to increase. Crude death rates are similarly affected by age distribution. If a population has a greater than average elderly proportion, it will have a higher crude death rate than one with fewer elderly, even if the per-capita death rates are the same in both countries. That is why, for example, the crude death rate for Sweden is larger than that for Panama. Sweden, partially because of its much lower fertility, has a greater proportion of elderly in its population than Panama. Thus, though Sweden has lower mortality at ail ages, its crude death rate is higher because about 12 percent of its population is 65 years or older compared to only about 5 percent in Panama. Improved methods Scientists now. however, use two new systems extrapolated from the old forecasting methods of crude rates. The total fertility rate and the net production rate are major improvements over the crude rate methods. The peculiarities related to varying age distributions are eliminated and figures are restricted to the childbearing female population. The total fertility rate in the United States for 1974 was about 2.1 children per woman. This means that 'if 1000 women went through their reproductive years and had children at the same rate as women of all ages did in 1974, their completed families would average just over 2.1 children. The net reproduction rate is actually a measure of generational replacement. A net reproduction rate of 1.0 means that a population is exactly replacing itself. The current rate in the United States is about 0.89, or below replacement. Still more births Despite these figures, there were still 154 million more births than deaths in 1974, the cause of which is age composition. Even if all women now entering their reproductive years had only 1.8 children on the average, population would continue to grow for a number of years because of the greater number of potentially reproductive women. Thus, it is incorrect to conclude that because the total fertility rate is currently below replacement, all growth has stopped. Births will continue to outnumber deaths for many years to come. Net immigration also adds millions to the U.S. population total. If immigration were eliminated and only fertility and mortality were considered, with a completed family size of 2.1 children, the United States would reach zero population growth in about the year 2035, when the population would be 270 million. Budget cuts dictate substantial layoffs Cuts in the University’s 1976-77 budget will require laying off a “substantial” number of faculty, and will affect all part-time personnel and some graduate assistants, Executive Vice President Albert Somit told the Faculty Senate Tuesday. The hiring freeze declared November 15 and the strong possibility of further budget cuts in January will force the University to make major policy decisions within the next few months on how to implement the cuts, Somit continued. “The University is adopting procedures to secure exceptions to the freeze, and all senior administrators should prepare their priorities.” Somit also said he does not expect the freeze on Amherst Campus construction to last longer than a year, and that all buildings presently under construction will be completed. Fuel Sorpit reported that the University’s current fuel allowance will fall approximately $1 million short and that because the University has already had $1.2 million cut from its 1976-77, “any lost positions represent a loss of flexibility” in response to any further cuts and will have “very serious implications.” In summing up the University’s financial situation, Somit said the budget cuts could either be distributed equally throughout all programs, thus ensuring the stagnation of new ones and making it impossible to begin any others, or could be made selectively in certain areas The choice is In support of the second method, Somit declared between standing still or moving backwards.” Senate Chairman George Hochfield said that discussions with State University Chancellor Ernest Boyer about the relationship between SUNY and the City University of New York (CUNY) led him (Hochfield] to believe there would be “some form of unity” within the next three to five years between SUNY and CUNY Tuition increase Hochfield also said Boyer suggested the possibility of an increase in SUNY tuitions within the next few years. In other business, the Senate postponed voting on the Senate Grading Committee's recommendation that the satisfactory/unsatisfactory option remain except for students on probation, and that the opportunity for students to take 25 percent of their total credits pass-fail. The Committee further recommended that students be allowed to use the S/U option within their majors with permission from the department, which must publish its procedures; and that students indicate their desire to be graded S/U by informing Admissions and Records by the last day courses can be added Or dropped. Based on information offered by Admissions and Records, the Committee report showed “no major violations of the S/U option from the standpoint of grade distributions. On the contrary, it seems to be operating the way it was intended.” Original intent In criticizing the Committee, Professor of Physics Jonathan Reichert said the S/U plan “has drifted away from its original intent” which was to encourage students to explore different areas without penalizing their average.” The S/U plan is being used by extremely weak students to avoid getting a “D”, he claimed, calling the committee’s ststistical data “conflicting and at best misleading.” Reichert proposed two types of grading in an amendment. Under his plan, students Can opt for the S/U only in courses outside their major, excluding even those courses required by their department.” His other proposal is that instructors have the option to designate an entire course pass-fail, provided they list it with the registrar. In opposing the “overall thinking” behind Reichert’s proposal, one professor claimed that contrary to what has been said, “students are not hustlers.” To avoid unnecessarily quick judgement, the proposals were sent back to the committee so that some compromise could be reached �Landmark church is to be demolished caused large chunks of plaster to come tumbling down from the ceiling, and it became obvious St. Joseph’s New Cathedral, a that a decision would have to be Buffalo landmark for 60 years, made about the cathedral’s future.

New York State bans the sale of anything at any time on Sundays except such “essential” commodities as food and drugs. to Most suburban shopping malls have indicated that they plan for to close. Spokespersons unless forced Sundays, remain open on several stores said it is primarily fear of losing business to competition The presidents of that has encouraged special Sunday sale hours. Hengerer’s and L.L. Berger’s, two large suburban stores, stated that they would not object to closing on Sundays if tne same was required face of competitors. In calling for strict enforcement of the law, Cosgrove requested even if local police officers to report violations of the Sunday sales ban, there are no complaints from private citizens Losing money Shoppers jammed the Lastern Hills Mall Clarence this past store Sunday as all stores except Sears were open. A number of staying by open losing money were they that managers said, however, Sundays.

NYPIRG's study contains information on price comparisons and demonstrates the difficulty in obtaining comparative price information. The group charged that the industry is largely self-regulated and shrouded from public scrutiny. Unnecessary NYPIRG recommended lhat funeral directors be required to disclose prices over the phone and that written cost information be given to consumers before any arrangements are made. NYPIRG also urged that existing laws be scrutinized to determine if they are costing consumers unnecessary money. The study, conducted in New York City, Nassau and Suffolk counties, selected 60 random funeral homes to determine the feasibility of arranging a funeral by phone and to obtain comparative price information. “Given that most people desiring to arrange a funeral are not likely to go from place to place in person comparing prices and services, they are likely to want to make arrangements and gel over with it. but they need information to make a rational choice. However, two-thirds of the funeral homes refused to give prices or were uncooperative. Twenty-five percent refused to give any price data," said Schultz. Archaic laws There is yet another problem associated with the funeral industry: the existence of laws that were originally passed as public health measures which now serve only to increase costs. For example, each body must be placed in a casket, even it cremation is A planned. By law, no casket may be reused change in this law would permit an elaborate. said Schultz At a public hearing on the funeral industry, Schultz offered six specific recommendations. In addition to disclosing prices over the phone, he said funeral directors should distribute itemized lists that identify optional goods or services, and include a statement saying that any options not desired can be declined. Board changes Funeral homes and cemeteries should distribute fact sheets explaining laws regarding the disposition of bodies. NYP1RG also wants to change the composition the Funeral Directors Advisory Board, six of of whose seven members must be funeral directors. NYPIRG proposed that the board consist of five representatives of public and consumer groups, and only two licensed funeral directors. Another law presently gives “reasonable funeral expenses of as much as S2000 priority in the deceased’s estate. NYPIRG contends that this law is in reality a subsidy for the funeral industry, supporting high cost funerals. NYPIRG recommends a S750 limit on funeral costs be taken out of the estate Open records NYPIRG also recommends that the General Business Law4 53 be amended so that money paid to a cemetery in advance be held in trust with interest payable to the consumer. NYPIRG wants the records of the Funeral Bureau of the Department of Health, which include inspection and enforcement proceedings, to be made available to the public. Finally, NYPIRG urges the legislature to study the existing body of laws on funerals to determine if health measures which result in higher costs to consumers are outdated It is NYPIRG's position that the slate can lake the actions outlined, to regulate the tuneral industry and make funeral costs less prohibitive to the survivors of the deceased. •••••••••••• THE NICKELODEON • ANTIQUE THEATRE ® 1406 Broadway (near Bailey) THE Y.M.C.A. 45 W.

This year CIA assassination plots, domestic files and other criminal activities have been publicly revealed. Corruption exists in high places in our society, and most Americans probably agree that it’s a good thing we have a free press. Or do we? James Aronson, a former New York Times writer, argues in his book, The Press and The Cold War that the press plays an active and conscious role in shaping public opinion in the interests of government policy. While the beginning of the Cold War is thought to have begun at the close of WW II, Aronson suggests that it really began right after the Russian Revolution of October 1917. Little was written in our press about the extreme conditions of poverty in which the majority of Russian people found themselves before the revolution, nor the tremendous changes that took place during the revolution. , Foreign aggression But when the young socialist state was invaded by the military forces of other countries, including the United States, the New York Times editorial of December 13, 1918 said: “Having entered Russia for a purpose, why not carry out that purpose?” That purpose was to “drive the Bolsheviki out of Petrograd and Moscow.” A study conducted by Walter Lipprnann and Charles Merz, and published in the New Republic , August 4, 1920, entitled, “A Test of the News," found that in the first two years after I9I7, the New York Times reported the new government collapsed 91 times, Petrograd toppled six times and burned to the ground twice, the people were in a constant state of starvation, and the White Army was victorious practically everywhere. But by adding up casualty statistics from the Times news stories, Lipprnann and Merz found that the casualty figures and captured weapons totals were “many times larger" than the armies and material in all of Aronson. While Russia, relates openly cheering for foreign Russia, by in aggression hysterically depicting (he new socialist government as monsterous, the press helped set the stage for government repression at home. In January of Id Id, shipyard workers in Seattle went on strike protest wage cuts, brought on by severe economic factors. Soon a general strike gripped the city, and within six months, some two million workers were on strike across the nation. Attorney General Mitchell Palmer and his aide, J. Fdgai Hoover, set up a special Justice to Department publicity bureau lo supply stories to the press about a M osc o w-d i reeled plot to overthrow the U.S. Government. The public was hit daily with headlines such as “U.S. Attorney General Warns Against Bolshevik Menace.” Having set the stage, Palmer went into action. The night of November 7, 1919, and again on January 2, thousands of suspected radicals were arrested in nationwide „weeps.' While there was no evidence to substantiate the charges of revolution, maintains Aronson, the New York World , of January 3, reported that “2,000 Reds” were arrested who were involved in a “vast working plot to overthrow the government." Cover for repression The press and federal government whipped up such hysteria, that the New York State Assembly was able to expel five legally elected Socialists from their offices. The Times wrote that the expulsions were “patriotic” and in the “national defense.” Anti-communism allowed the government to repress the movement of American labor for better working and living conditions by equating strikes and protest actions with the monsterous “red menace.” While anti-communism has been a permanent feature of government and press policy, it was subdued during the Second World War when unity was forged against Nazi Germany. But as soon as the war was over, anti-communism was revived. Winston Churchill gave a speech in Fulton, Missouri in August of 1945, calling for a aid to Greece and Turkey to stop communism. Then, one year later, “saboteurs” and “espionage after the fact, Time magazine revealed the real reasons for agents” from the Soviet Union. On September 30, 1946, FBI involvement: “The loud talk was Director Hoover “let loose a all of Greece and Turkey, but the resounding blast against whispers behind the talk were of communists in the U.S.” as the the oceans of oil to the south.

Investigations of “Un-American” activities sprung up all over the country, with full press coverage, while blacklists were compiled and arrest of suspected radicals increased. Abraham L.

However, juries in such cases. rarely Physicians publicly contend that they do not practice euthanasia. Off the record, however, many admit that they have hastened the death of a terminally ill patient by administering an overdose of the patient’s medicine. With today's sophisticated medical equipment being able to prolong a “semi-life," a new set of choices arises. Should a patient's circulatory or respiratory systems be artificially sustained through the use of these wonder machines, and if so, for how long? Should a patient be technically kept alive by "physiochemical legerdemain," even if all he has become is a mere collection of organs and act is convict Writer There is a growing emotional controversy over euthanasia and the so-called right to die. Although watching the deterioration of a lerminally-ill person is an extremely painful, traumatic experience tor both the patient and family, it is widely believed that as long as there is the slightest possibility a pat ent may recover, concerned parties should not be allowed to decree the deliberate termination of life. However, advocates of euthanasia argue that it is an act of mercy to hasten the death of a critically ill patient with not chance for long-term survival Rapid scientific and technological progress in the field of medicine have increasingly brought these troubling questions to bear on terminal patients, their families, doctors, theologins and lawyers. Daniel C. Maguire, professor of According Ihcology al Marquette University, science, which once considered itself "value-free,” is suddenly up to its neck in value-loaded decisions. “Medicine becomes more and more involved with problems of ethics as it is repeatedly forced to ask itself if H may do what it suddenly and often to Partial death? Science lacks a comprehensive definition of death. "When you are dead, you are dead," is no longer accurate now that death is seen in terms of a "process.” The terms "brain death" and "heart death" confuse the issue for there aie cases where one happens without the other. Medicine cannot distinguish between "good death" and "had death," claims Macguire. Science has geared ilsell to the prolongation of life under any circumstance. "Death is the natural enemy of healing science." asserts Macguire. The physician faces the dilemma of how long to prolong life after all hope of recovery has dissipated. The Hippocratic oath reads: "I will neither give a deadly drug to anybody, if asked for. nor will 1 make a suggestion thereof.” This has been interpreted by most physicians to mean that they must not administer the patient a fatal overdose, no matter how much pain he might be in. Until about 25 years ago physicians laced the choice of either letting nature take its course, or administering a fatal dose ot some "beneficial" drug. Resorting to the ding is termed "active euthanasia." In all Western countries the tissues'.’ "The idea ol mil prolonging life has always been more widely accepted outside the medical profession than within it,” says James Gusiavson of the University of C hicago. "Now a lot of physicians are rebelling against the triumphism inherent in the medical profession, against the Doctors differ "Different doctors bring different considerations bear. The rescarc y sic tan is t ore ct 01 ten patient-oriented physician is more willing to allow patients to make theii own choice.” Gusiavson explained. Patients with hopelessly damaged brains can be kept alive for indefinite periods through the use of respirators which keep the heart and lungs pumping. In these cases, the brain may be dead yet the person is technically alive simply because his heart is beating. There have been cases where an autopsy revealed that the brain had actually liquified. A California docloi leporls the case ot a brain damaged patient whose life was "maintained" lor eight years. Tubes for feeding and waste excretion kept the have taken a lighted match and held tl against his eye and he still wouldn't have known you were there.' the doctor said. The cost of keeping this person alive over those eight years amounted to S.JOO.OOO. Had the tubes been removed the patient would have slipped away within 11 hours.

On August LK I 467 Robert Waskins, a 23 year old college student shot his terminally ill mother three times in the head after her tearful plea to die He was arrested and charged with murder. The case went to court. The letter of the law had little to offer Waskins, for the motive, however benevolent, is no defense in cases ol mercy killing. The jury deliberated for 40 minutes. They found Waskins not guilty by reason of insanity. They later found that he was no longer insane and he was released. In the famous “Montemarano Case” on Long Island. District Attorney Calm had to prove that Dr. Montemarano injected a lethal dose of potassium chloride into his patient. Eugene Bauer, who was suffering from cancer of the throat and was in a coma. Recently the Quinlan Case has captured the national interest. Is Euthanasia really merciful; Or is if really murder'.’ The question is still up in the air.

While we love seeing dogs outside running freely, playing with each other and having fun, we get angry when we see those same dogs chasing squirrels, digging up the grass, execreting on the cement and annoying people. It is the responsibility of dog owners to watch their animals at all times so these things do the 1948 war are not even permitted to return. Therefore, they conclude Zionism is racism. The fact is that Israel has been excluding these refugees for security reasons not for racial reasons. As pointed out in a previous letter, this policy was also followed in 1948. Then, as now, Israel could not afford to jeopardize her security by allowing refugees in. One thing I’ve noticed about the UB is its apparent inability to distinguish between Zionism as a philosophy and the actual policies of the present Israeli government. It would have made more sense to condemn Israel for her raids in Lebanon or even for her refusal to withdraw from 1967 occupied territory. Instead, they condemn a philosophy that they knew little about. One would get the impression that the Jewish religion specifically commands the Israelis to throw people off their land and let them starve. In addition, the UN ignores the murderous acts of the PLO and the anti-Semitism (which, by the way, is racism) practiced by the governments of the USSR and Arab countries. This goes to show that the UN is biased against Israel. 1 dare anyone to debate this point The resolution further loses its credibility when one considers that at least one of the Arab leaders who voted for it (Sadat) fought on Hitler’s side 35 years ago 1 conclude that the UN is sinking lower, lower each year.

That we are in anything resembling the period of if only because the 1929-1932 is obviously false Federal Reserve is not going to contract the money supply by 1/3. That New York City is the cause and by implication that saving New York City will turn the economy around is flummery. Rather we should examine the effects of a bailout on the economy. These would include at the very least: 1) increased - as the supply of money substitutes is increased; 2) higher taxes for all because of increased borrowing costs for the Federal Government and all other borrowers. Vice President Carter Pannill’s arguments are also fallacious. He suggests that it is somehow proper to subsidise students (by reduced tuition) to enter a profession in which, because of the strong monoply position its members maintain, large returns are earned. Rather, med students should pay high tuition. If you really feel tuition would provide barriers to entry, I suggest a loan fund be established, which would lend students money at the market rate. In any event, the argument over the propriety of state subsidies to the medical profession is quite independent of the New York City issue. 1 am pleased to see Mr. Logan concerned about the construction industry in Western New York.

Nor is it clear why we in W N Y have the right to ask the taxpayers of Dubuqe, Iowa to subsidize our construction industry by bailing out the city State Senator McFarland shows his stuff by propogating the obvious falsehood that a guarantee “wouldn’t cost a cent.” If that is the case I ask him to co-sign my personal notes. If it was true that there is no chance the city will default (and thus have to actually use the guarantee) then investors would be willing to buy the bonds without the guarantee. That, however, is clearly not the case. We must remember that people who bought NYC bonds did so of their own free will and knew that they were taking risks. A bailout would make sure payment occurred and transfer money from all of us (as taxpayers) to the rich (as bondowners) I am pleased that Sen. McFarland notes the “near criminality” involved in the city’s management. I would put it even stronger. Consider what would happen to any individual who engaged in these activities on behalf of a profit-maximizing firm. David Brownstein evidently limited himself to a meaningless attack on President Ford. I suggest that, rather than capitalizing on an uninformed public. President Ford is reflecting the wishes of his constituents. Remember, contrary to what appears to be a popular belief around here, life does exist west of the Hudson, and even beyond the Empire State. Most of the people in this country do not live New York It is these people, 90% of the in population, that President Ford should be servicing in this instance. The public is well informed of what is being planned for them if Mr. Brownstein has his way, and they don 7 like it\ Lastly, I should make it clear that these comments are my own opinion and do not necessarily that of my colleagues, represent department or school. Mark Weinstein Assistant Professor of Finance and Operations Analysis �Our Weekly Reader So Long, Partner (United Fred Electrical, Radio Machine Workers of & America) a book of cartoons is simply to publish them. Yet, the cartoons by Fred Wright are so unique and powerful that one is compelled to learn more about the artist. Who is this man that reveals with such simplicity, clarity and immediacy, the daily struggle between the boss and the worker, while capturing the bittersweet humor these encounters produce? Fred Wright was born in England in 1907 and was schooled in Canada and the United States. Fie worked as a clerk for a large public utility company in New York and as a musician. The depression and the end of Prohibition terminated his piano playing in New York as the nightclub cabaret's came to an end. Wright then became a seagoing saxophonist on cruise ships, and for seven years observed first hand the severe social and economic injustices that the poor suffered in underdeveloped countries. With the rise of fascism in Europe, and the CIA organizing drives at home, Wright returned to join the ranks of the young trade unionists of the 1930's. Fie began to review The best way labor producing cartoons to Pentagon and cold war politicians." Throughout the cold war of McCarthyism, and the hot wars in Korea and Vietnam, the UE maintained its honorable principles, by opposing governmental interference in the lives of people here and abroad. To date, Wright has published some 3,000 cartoons for the UE, beginning in 1939. Many of his cartoons have been translated and reproduced in foreign trade union publications, and are being used more and more in this country today. His pen speaks the same language for all working people, attesting to the universal character of class differences and the common interests of working people. Today Fred Wright is several years into retirement, yet continues as an artist with the UE at a job he loves. Concerning the refreshing changes he observed in the late 1960's and 1970's, Wright comments: "The basic revolutionary traditions of America are showing through and to the everlasting credit of the American people who are observing their moral and ethical commitments. The stars and stripes will eventually represent the principles and ideals that they originally so proudly hailed."

Jim and Mary have a lot in common: they're both veterans of that years on the road, with their hearts based "Way Out West" being, in fact, the title of Mary's Philo album; she combines material ranging from the Beatles, the Everly Brothers and Randy Newman with her own worldly but ethereal songs ("Northfield" and "Young Westley" especially). Her sounds come in large part from her unusual guitar tunings, which she'll be demonstrating in a free workshop tomorrow afternoon at 2 p.m. in Norton's Room 232. The C&W strains are even more apparent in Jim's music, both in his original songs and the likes of "I Know You're Married But I Love You Still" and "Any Old Wind That Blows," the title of his new Philo disc, which came into being largely as a result of co-producer David Bromberg dropping in on Jim's visit to Buffalo two years ago.

The Spectrum . Friday, 5 December 1975 18 Prodigal Sun �'Conduct Unbecoming' RECORDS Robert Palmer, Pressure Drop (Island) Robert Palmer, in case you didn't remember, is the man responsible for Sneaking Sally Through the Alley, an album of pseudo-R&B/Soul which frequented the FM playlists in late spring and early summer of this year. Sneaking Sally differs from much of the “blue-eyed soul" pouring out of the British Isles these days in the quality and competence displayed by the musicians who were assembled for the album. Whereas outfits such as the Average White Band or Ace are content to merely copy styles (both vocal and instrumental) straight from past and present soul classics. Palmer and his backup group seem to be capable of original thought. The fact that Sneaking Sally stood up to repeated play is probably due to his assimilation of influences from the entire spectrum of black music, rather than emulation of some facets thereof, as is the case with other artists in the same vein. In this respect, Palmer's work is similar to that of the American band Little Feat, and in fact, much of it sounds remarkably like them. Pressure Drop, his new album, is no exception (he is accompanied by all of Little Feat here), although he steps outside the confines of their southern funk, through the use of other backing musicians and clever production, to encompass a much broader range of styles. Palmer makes better use of his heavily R&B-influenced voice here than on the last LP, abandoning (for a few cuts at least) the pleasures of the flesh. The clincher is of course the title song, a reggae number originally done by the infamous Toots and the Maytals. Again, the music is perfect, a genuine slice of Jamaica, 1—3—5 bass line and Harry Belafonte-type backing vocals joyously dirging on for 5:26 about “Pressure drop/Oh pressure/Yeah pressure's gonna drop on you." Reggae fans may bemoan the fact that there is only one such song on the album, but I personally consider this to be an asset. Judging by Palmer's male-chauvinist sense of humor (as well a; the album's cover), "Pressure Drop" is a thinly Veiled reference to post-coital Film is worthwhile with excellent acting by Randi Schnur Arts Editor The setting is "India: the Northwest Frontier;" the year is 1878. Nowhere else but in the farthest corner of their empire could and Englishmen be quite so stiff, so formal, so completely proper under the influence of nothing so much as that infamous Victorian morality could their prissy' "respectability" be so hypocritical. The impeccably bred officers of the British Army featured in Conduct Unbecoming, Michael Anderson's film of the play by Barry England, are further restrained by the great weight of the white man's burden which they carry on their shoulders at all times; among the savages of India, of course, they must always appear as the paragons of civilization they so firmly believe themselves to be. It is difficult to disturb their supreme complacency or shake their confidence, but it is — not impossible. England’s play deals with the two most devastating crises these men could conceivably be made to face: loss of manhood and, even more traumatic, loss of honor, among the military sub-culture and among friends. "It is necessary, at whatever cost, to support the honor of the regiment," the seasoned captain informs the new young lieutenant. A question of honor "Gentlemen do not question the honor of other gentlemen," the to colonel states unequivocally and almost unnecessarily whomever will listen. When that so-called "honor" must finally be scrutinized, after a violent and rather incredibly sordid assault on Mrs. Scarlett, the camp-follower widow of one of the officers ("Don't but." "Oh, yes. How misunderstand me. She is very much a lady and how marvelously euphemistic the old soldiers can distressing” be!) the inevitable results are nothing less than total humiliation and — — — moaning, shouting and raspmess which turn many people off to his vocals. "Give Me an Inch Girl," "Back In My Arms" and "Which of Us is the Fool," all penned by Palmer, are state-of-the-art pop tunes which bear no resemblance at all to the "Dixie Chicken" genre, and are enhanced greatly by producer Steve Smith's use lush vocal Philly-soul of orchestration and harmonies. These songs also present one aspect of Pressure Drop's main theme, that of male-female relationships, both cerebral and otherwise. The aspect displayed in these songs (yearning, lovesick appeals to a woman) is more than compensated for by the tongue in-cheek humor of other lyrics on the album, as well as the blatantly sexist cover photos. "Work to Make it Work," another Palmer composition, is a textbook example of the work form, with very authentic backing vocals and music supplied by Little Feat, as well as a perfectly restrained brass arrangement couresy of the Muscle Shoals Horns. The lyrics, taken in context, seem to imply that the "work" being done is that of landing someone in bed. The Allen Toussaint song "Riverboat" is covered excellently here, the song/spiritual keyboards of Bill Payne and the guitars of Lowell George and Paul Barrere lending credence to a well instrumentation. New Orleans thought-out Toussaint's lyrics fit in with the rest of the album thematically, dealing in a light-hearted way with the — depression. (He is pictured on the front cover standing between a naked woman and an unmade bed, thoughtfully considering the channel-changer of his TV set.) Side as side two, although not as interesting musically one, remains in character with the ideas developed there. "Here With You Tonight" and "Fine Time" are two more decent attempts at honest-to-goodness R&B, written by Palmer and (what else) pulled off well by the session men. The former is a warning to a woman on the rebound that she may never see the singer again ("I ain't no substitution for the guy/Who left you alone"), while the latter voices Palmer's reaction to a recent conquest's request for housing ("This is a fine time/To tell me that you wanna stay here"). Also is the Lowell George song "Trouble,” which surprisingly enough sounds just like Little Feat. I would recommend this album (obviously) to anyone who likes Little Feat, and I know there are a included lot of you out there. Also, I would recommend it to all the sex-mongers among you (I know there are a lot those too), and lastly to anyone who likes to dance or who has ever been in love (in that order). I guess that puts Pressure Drop on a lot of holiday shopping lists. —John Duncan suicide. The obvious suspect in the case, particularly since he makes no at all to deny Mrs. Scarlett's accusations, is Lieutenant Millington, a dashing new recruit who exudes dishonorable intentions and all-around bad faith. ("Did I hear correctly? Ladies? Voluptuous ladies?" is his first reaction to the orientation speech.) Rather than subject him to court-martial and the whole regiment to scandal, Millington's fellows elect to try him in a sort of semi-official attempt after-hours kangaroo court. Freedom of choice Allowed to choose his own defense counsel, the accused taps Lieutenant Drake, who arrived in India on the same train and has been trying to shake any association with the self-acknowledged scoundrel ever since. Drake, naturally, turns out to be the only truly honorable man in the camp; even with Millington pleading "indifferent" and Captain Harper, the presiding officer, reminding him again and again that his job is simply to give in as quickly and cleanly as possible, the young lieutenant manages to discredit virtually everybody in the and to vindicate the defendant as regiment whether living or dead — well. Conduct Unbecoming is a perfect one-set courtroom drama; the restraints imposed by the limited space automatically increase the tension all by themselves, and the necessary tightness of a decent production would underline the corresponding tightness in the characters' own minds. Opened up to include more than just the courtroom, however, the film loses a lot of that necessary tension; the whole concept of dishonor as disaster seems awfully trivial set against even the very few glimpses of background director Anderson gives us Minor roles well acted The acting is generally excellent, particularly that of "minor" like Trevor Howard as the father-of-us-all Colonel Strang, players whose beautiful combination of military pride and personal humility finally forces him to admit that "I am the regiment. What I have allowed to happen in the regiment is what I am," and Richard Attenborough's ever-so-cooperative, secretly demonic Major Reach, Susannah York is appropriately attractive and disdainful as Mrs. Scarlett (as is James Faulkner as Maillington), but far more credible as which was apparently the seductress than as woman wronged director's intent. The film's one really regrettable scene involves her lapse into dazed horror as she re-enacts what really happened for the court, but the fault there is screenwriter Robert Enders', not hers. — Michael York is his usual incredibly sincere self, a character trait that fits Lieutenant Drake perfectly. Only Stacy Keach's Captain Harper, who believes as firmly as anyone in the all-importance of honor but is also the first to understand Drake's point, is somewhat less than adequate. His should be the most conflict-ridden character in the film, but the effects of that conflict are left mainly to audience inference. Although sometimes strained and not quite as earth-shattering as they might be, the events in Conduct Unbecoming make for terrific theatre and pretty good cinema. Now playing at the Amherst Theatre, it is stimulating (even if not precisely exciting), eminently professional, and well worth your time. Prodigal Sun Friday, 5 December 1975 .

Patti Smith, emaciated, alabaster, moon child and impish darling of the New York City avant garde has given birth to an intriguing hybrid of poetics and rock. Rock poetry has become a much abused and cliche ridden term, too often afflicted with romantic histrionics or dubious plumbings into decadence. Indeed, some might perceive Patti's poetic preoccupations as a descent and embracing of decadence. A case could be mustered to this end and no double ably defended. Certainly decadence for the sake of decadence is a cul-de-sac. If subjects like suicide, murder, sex of all delicious and deviant forms offends your sensibilities perish any further thoughts about Ms. Smith and look elsewhere for your illumination. Might I propose television. Patti Smith's rhythms dance beyond the confinements and easy classification of decadence offered by those of a staunch middle class backbone. For those not so easily swayed or rattled, Patti Smith unearths a cosmos of images which more often than not connect with the unconscious and stir flame from stone. Smith's back-up band, composed of ex-rock critic Lenny Kaye among others, alternatively lashes out a simplistic, primal rock and soft reverberations of textures and coloration. It is from this musical construct that Patti pauses and prances, weaving word tapestries that cut through consciousness and sear the unchartered lagoons of the mystery shrouded id-consciousness. The opus "Land" is a prime example of this aural assault that shakes the roots of consciousness. force of rock incorporating "Land of a Thousand motifs as indigenous to rock as Rockefeller is to The capitalism. themes examined are sex and violence, the vertible vital organs of the corpus of rock. Patti, through merging and conflicting rhythm patterns, injects a cinematic flair which enables the motifs to congeal and flood the senses. "Land" is the stark anatomy of rock 'n "Land" is a Dances" to tour de explore roll. Patti and the band do a remarkable version of Van Morrison's "Gloria." The version provides Patti an opportunity to play her gender games by seducing a sweet, young thing to the incessant pealings of the church tower bell. After Patti's done, the song bears her unique stamp. There's a reggae tune, "Redondo Beach," dealing with a suicide, and an infectious rocker, "Free Money," extols the merits of ready cash, lottery tickets, and dreaming in bed. Not all that Patti touches turns to gold. Occasionally her vocal cadences slur, perhaps in an attempt at affect or pristine emotion, rendering some images incomplete and fragmented. At times Lenny Kaye and the boys are too simplistic for their own good and fail to see when a bit of the dynamic might be more to the point. These faults remain minor. Horses conveys an evocative, sensuously rich, erotic probe into the grottos of rock. Patti Smith has broken through. If you drift towards a bohemian cool, hook up with Horses. —C.P. Parkas Prodigal Sun �Dmytryk film The Human Factor' neglects its audience Edward Dmytryk's The Human Factor raises some small marginal issues that are nevertheless more interesting than the ones supposedly dealt with, but actually ignored by the film itself. This extremely violent film pretends to concern itself with the fictional political assassinations of American families in England, but its true interest is dealing irresponsibly with vigilante violence, or Walking Tall revisited (Walking Tall was also morally reprehensible, but at least it was done with competence). Not so with The Human Factor. Dmytryk had distinguished himself somewhat in the 40's with a few trashy but palatable films Murder My Sweet (Farewell My Lovely), Crossfire, etc. and moved into the 50's with such films as The Sniper, and my favorite, Raintree County. Dmytryk's 60's films include the consummate but enjoyable trash of The Carpetbaggers, Where Love Has Gone (the one with Joey Heatherton knifing her mother's lover and ending with Susan Hayward driving hurriedly to her artist's studio and there committing suicide with her chisel) and the excellent 40's throwback Mirage. Dmytryk's last known film was the awfully campy Bluebeard (Richard Burton, as Virna Lisi, a modern day Bluebeard has done in quite a few wives Raquel Welch, etc. and now it's Joey Heatherton's turn. Burton goes through a long, sweaty and intense soliloquy relating the Freudian frustrations that have driven him bananas and why Heatherton has to die also, to which she calmly replies, "I have my own problems, too."). - - Against something Dmytryk's theme has always been the individual against something (anyone for a Films of Edward Dmytryk book) and through the considerable mire he has indicated an even and serious intelligence. Here George Kennedy is up against the unknown murderers of his family the murderers turn out to be incarnated by actors looking and like rejects from What's My Line.

Page thirtee �RECORDS Sparks, Indiscreet (Island) As you may or may not know, about two or three years ago there was a sudden upsurge in the number of pop groups coming from Great Britain. Variable in quality, a few of the groups had one hit and were never head of again, while others were so successful that they even managed to get some notice on this side of the Atlantic. The boom seems to be dying down now, and as the dust settles, it's nice to see Sparks emerging as one of the more worthwhile bands spawned from that era. Indiscreet is the third British offering from this unusual group. They had two albums while they were still on the West Coast, but they never went anywhere. Like its predecessors. Indiscreet explores a certain subtlety in style, giving no indication as to what the group is going to do for its next effort, but never sounding tired or monotonous. Still, it maintains some innate quality which is very characteristic of Sparks. It is difficult to say what that quality is. Listening to the two albums that came before this one, you could easily say the music, and the band itself, was based on some sort of nervous energy. However, this time around some of the energy is exchanged for a slightly more mature, serene sound. The credit, or blame, for this should probably go to Tony Visconti, their new producer, who has also de-emphasized the guitar but kept the band's electronic some defects too. Russ Mael's vocals occasionally sound like those of Tiny Tim, and there are a few lethargic spots. Nothing on it comes close to the material on Kimono My House, so if you've never liked Sparks, this album is not going to convert you. Taken on its own terms though, it is one of the most interesting albums released this year. E. Zielinski — Michael Murphey, Swans Against the Sun (Epic) Michael Murphey has all the necessary ingredients required to join the ranks of the elite band of musicians born in the early seventies known as singer-songwriters. Murphey sings in a sweet and pleasing tenor, plays a number of instruments proficiently, including guitar, banjo and mandolin and writes most of his own material. His giant AM hit "Wildfire" established Murphey's reputation as a pop-folk singer with great potential. However, he hasn't quite transcended the barrier between a one-hit AM success and a recognized artist, and this album certainly won't help him any. Viewed from a strictly technical angle, the album is not that bad. The instrumentation is superb; Murphey employs a whooping country fiddle, dobro, lapslide, banjo and mandolin among the finger-picking guitars which dominate the album. The arrangements and production of the album is also deftly done, and the vocal harmonies between Murphey and a studio singer named John Denver are airtight. Yet, despite all this technical proficiency, this is the most boring album I have ever listened to. I find I fall asleep as soon as Murphey begins with the first tune, "Swans Against the Sun," and slumber peacefully through all the repetitive muck that follows till "Seasons Change," the last cut. On a scale of one to ten this album falls somewhere between one glass of warm milk and two Sominex tablets. Perhaps the friction of the stereo needle against the record groove liberates some sort of depressant gas which causes one to nod out for 40 minutes. The fact that Murphey's songwriting abilities are erratic if not negligible could be a contributing factor to the boredom of this album. Each song sounds like the one before it, except with a nicer arrangement. Murphey's style defines any definite categorization, one can hear strains of folk, with elements of syrupy AM pop, brought to you in a rhapsodies with complex texture and pinnacles leaving the listener with an exhilarated "up" impression. When Wakeman adapts "Hungarian Rhapsody" and "Free at Last" to synthesizer he gets carried away leaving one hyperventilating and feeling down; the synthesizing of synthesizers is overproduced. In Liszt's time, piano seemed to be the pop rage that could be mastered relatively well. Since the synthesizer has yet to be mastered, perhaps electric guitar might have been used to portray the Liszt phenomenon. I can see it now: Leo Kottke and Bruce Springsteen starring in Lisztomania. -Harold Goldberg Jan Hammer, The First Seven Days (Nemperor) After the breakup of the original Mahavishnu Orchestra, fans of keyboard stylist Jan Hammer, enticed by his innovative yet tasteful utilization of electronics, anxiously awaited a solo album. They were sorely disappointed by the embarrassing Like Children (Jerry in which Goodman/Jan Hammer), an album vocals and terrible instrumentals over-pretentious overshadowed the brief moments of interest. The First Seven Days, Hammer's first solo album, is a vast improvement over Like Children, and even though it is not exactly a masterpiece, it is very good, if only from a technical point of view. On this album, Hammer is in his neat country western package. The style is definitely Murphey's own, and his uniqueness is all he has at this lend him credit A good production job by Bob Johnston, strong arrangements by Murphey and his band (in which Charlie Daniels lends a hand and clean, clear vocals almost save this album from being a total waste. If Murphey only had material other than his own to work with we'd have a damn good country-western singer on our hands, as his "Mansion on the Hill" by Hank Williams proves. As for Michael Murphey, I'd keep an ear out for him in the future. As for this album, the cover art isn't too bad. —Lesh point to keyboard framework intact. This gives the cuts a clean sound, and none of them are overproduced. Perhaps the best thing about the album is that Sparks have almost fully realized their limitations, or else they've imposed limitations upon themselves which other pop groups have not even tried recently. Either consciously or discovered that the best pop song half pop song, a short so of the cuts are under three is minutes and only one track goes over four. Nevertheless, Ron Mael, who wrote most of the tunes, manages to cram unconsciously they have them full of interesting, and sometimes downright peculiar Lisztomania lyrics. (Soundtrack) (A&M Records) Lisztomania is Ken Russell's latest attempt at success. Roger Daltry and Rick Wakeman are both notable and successful musicians in their respective rock fields. Franz Liszt was a success in the nineteenth century. One would think that putting all these success stories together would make for an inventive and likeable movie Hello down there This is your creator with a questionnaire Hello up there / don't have time to fill out questionnaires. While Sparks Is knowh for its unique style, there are a few songs here that may surprise even an avid fan. Certain styles have been taken and tailored to fit Sparks' own style. Thus they use country rock to make one cut sound like a square dance, and a string quartet to make another song sound like something from an operetta. There is also an imitation of the Big Band Era which is very well done. All of this may sound a bit strange, but it comes off better than you would expect. soundtrack. It doesn't happen. Ken Russell is concerned with the pop attraction of today, solely to make money it's — difficult to present the classical as pop without sacrificing much of the classical or pop. Roger Daltry has been beneficial to the rock industry by singing and performing with the Who. His voice isn't that good (Lord, have I just crucified a god?) especially when combined with slow, musically intense pieces like those of Liszt's. The album has many good points, but it does have Liszt's music is nineteenth century pop ballads and own element; except for a percussionist on two cuts and a violinist on three, Hammer plays everything here, creating incredibly dense textures for his seven new compositions. Centered around the theme of the creation of the earth, the album is a fairly varied collection of vehicles for Hammer's accomplished piano and snythesizer work, although a whole record of solos by any one person is bound to be slightly repetitive. Of note is Hammer's interesting application of a “computerized" synthesizer and his inventive use of snythesized orchestration. Hammer also plays drums on some of the album, not too badly either. The First Seven Day is a must for lovers of old-time Mahavishnu, Walter Carlos and/or any "classical" electronic music. It beats the hell out of Rick Wakeman. —John Duncan The Spectrum office will be open regular hours next week: 9 a.m.—5 p.m. for copying with Gus office will be open Monday only, 9 a.m.—5 p.m., to accept ads for Wednesday's The Spectrum (our last issue this semester) office will be open Tuesday and Wednesday only, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. for University Photo.

Who's To Bless rectify the whole but does have some departures from the overly laid back for which Kristofferson is notorious. Side one opens with "The Year 2000 Minus 25," a modern compositions protest song. Kris prefers to chance condemnation from various groups with lyrics such as: Power isn't, power does, and power slips away I t's so easy to abuse Who'da thought them Arabs woulda bought the U.S.A. Just to give it to the Jews than to replay his average hard-luck country women and drinking themes. Risque as it sounds, it works to his advantage. This is one of the best cuts on the album. My favorite, though, was co-written with Roger McGuinn and Bobby Neuwirth, and is entitled "Rocket to Stardom." Kristofferson's dilemma seems to be keeping people from his house. Neuwirth's sense of humor is apparent in the lyrics, and Kris carries it off with a cynical. musing tone. Of course, the record does have its share of country-ish things, but they are pleasant, rather than somnambulic. "Stranger" and "Easy, Come On" follow the usual heartache track, but the title cut and "Don't Cuss the Fiddle," a track about songwriters, compensate nicely. He has some of the best session musicians: Lee Sklar on bass, Bobbye Hall Mike Utley percussion, on on keyboards and vocalists Clydie Herb Vanetta Fields, King, Pedersen and fellow Oates. actor Warren have behind them, The O'Jays have put out an excellently produced album that stands as their finest to date. The sensational sound achieved by utilizing that fine blend of embracing orchestration, get it on rhythm and dynamic harmonies, which has been hailed as "The Sound of Philadelphia" is at its finest when in the hands of Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff. Every number of Family Reunion has a refreshing crispness and flavor to it. The O'Jays have picked up slices of other bright artists' styles, such as Wilson Pickett and the Temptations (their counterparts over in Detroit) and molded them smoothly to their own style. Songs such as "I Love Music" (their latest hit) and "Unity" jump to a lively two step disco beat that shies away from the heavy bass and blaring horns incorporated by most groups in the boogie on down school of rhythm and blues. It's the lack of these items that allow these two numbers to stand out as well as they do. On the other end of the scale are "Stairway to Heaven" and "You and Me" songs which are given such well thought out composition that I just drift off into a haze every time I hear them. The sound to these mellow numbers are so full that their ease and sweet sanctity seem to fill the been an able practitioner for years and continues the trend with this release. —Barbara Komansky With Family Reunion. The O'Jays have conquered both ends of the soul spectrum. There are songs with the power to drive you to get up and get down, just as there are songs that have the grace to urge you to get down with our lady and get it on. —Howie Spierer Crack The O'Jays, Family Reunion (Philadelphia International) The O'Jays have been around How much can you expect from a group called "Crack The Sky?" And what more can you expect when they put out an album of the same name? As it turns out, the music on this album modulates from interesting to intense, from played out to rather Crack The Sky is composed of John Palumbo, who plays keyboards and guitars, and his back up band. Palumbo penned all of the songs on the alburn, and long, them long time and to recognition lords of Philadelphia group. Palumbo's it's gain a common theme of self analysis soul. Now that they are on top, it would be all too easy to quickly spew out crude and commercial material that could cash in on the current disco craze. From the sound of their latest album, Family Reunion, it sounds as though the drive for the big buck has been passed up in favor of the urge to achieve perfection. Taking all those years of experience they Prodigal Sun the are not bad, although he suffers from a lack of originality. His lyrics seem to have taken the they deserve as the awhile for compositions a album cover was very reminiscent of Album 1700 minus the 1920's gangster trappings. However, once the album was put on the turntable, most, if not all, similarities ended. Back Street Crawler, The Band Plays On (Atco Records) band sounds like every other group in the world. All throughout the album there are suggestions of Bad Co., Slade, Steely Dan, Traffic, Free and even the Stones. Everything Back Street Crawler does on this album has been done before, and done much better, by one of these bands. Lead singer Terry Slesser easily fluctuates from a cheap imitation of dagger to a poor emulation of Paul Williams, and the transition is uncomfortable because, quite simply, one would rather listen to the real thing than ripoffs bad this band the This produces. At one point, the album begins sounding like it might be palatable for AM radio so, appropriately enough, I switched the speed to 45. I discovered that side two of this album would make a pretty good AM single if you don't listen to it too carefully. You can catch Steely Dan riffs and Stevie Wmwood vocals whizzing by you at 45 rpms, and it's over so quickly it's almost enjoyable. -Lesh Prelude, Owlcreek Incident (Pye) At first I suspected that this group was trying to be the Peter, • and introspection, although he possesses neither the subtlety of a James Taylor nor the comedy of a However, Randy Newman.

Unfortunately, there is nothing a cappella on this album, and the weak harmonies and thin choruses in no way compensate for it. The melodies it's almost always second rate, and when a good one does come across, its merits are nullified by inane lyrics. album is monotonous. They are the main factors in Prelude's destruction of Kenny Loggin's "A Love Song" and Jackson Browne's "To A Dancer." The low point of the album is reached on "Me and the Boy," which sounds like the music you hear in the background or McDonald's of Pepsi commercials. This group could have a future on the but nowhere else. What we replacement have here is not a for Peter, Paul & Mary; it's more of a reworked version of the New Seekers. If you like that kind of music, you'll like the album, but 1 feel that most people would prefer something with a little more substance and a lot less boredom. —E.

Still, Styx's integrating of music and lyric is no break with tradition, it's no pace setter; it jumps on the money-making flight of today falling on yesterday's success. But it's fun, is organized well, and becomes part of you through unobtrusive, easily remembered melody and lyric.

It is clear that his own style has not yet been firmly established, and this is conveyed in the music. Musically, the band is very tight. They do not hesitate to break into complex syncopation and weaving vocal harmonies which are mildly stunning to a musical ear. While John Palumbo appears to be the driving talent in this band, it is impossible to overlook the strength with which the other four members deliver his songs. Crack The Sky has potential to be a realty proficient band, if they'd establish some sort of definite identity and change their name. —Lesh room pleasant you're into laidback country rock, Kristofferson has If Paul PLATTERS .60 extra, includes a mountain of french fries, cole slaw and a barrel-cured dill pickle. 1.05 1.20 BIG "M” BURGER with melted American cheese Melted American cheese lettuce i/, lb. steakburger on a fresh toasted sesame bun lb 1 20 MOON BURGER of melted provolone or sw 'Iss over a [/4 lb steakburger on a fresh toasted sesame bun.

There are a number of reasons for this renewed interest in speaker efficiency Most involve the fact that today's listening tastes and toward more volume with less distortion than the typical low efficiency speaker system can deliver with amplifiers of moderate size. As evidence of this fact, witness the recent popularity of super-powered amplifiers in home music systems Several hundred watts of amplifier power used to be regarded a frivolous excess., but tests have confirmed that these power levels are a practical necessity tor faithful reproduction of modern recordings with low efficiency speakers. Unfortunately, very few of these speakers can withstand such high power operation for long. High efficiency speakers offer an economical way out of this dilemma.

Tripp, M.D. First, 1 must say there can never be a totally comprehensive book dealing with all aspects of gay life styles. It will require several generations of total legal freedom and anti-discriminatory authority legislation by public. before an objective work dealing with honosexuality and gay life styles is possible. But Tripp’s book is an excellent start Homosexual Matrix The demolishes the successfully “crime against nature” argument with incredible ease. "nature exists as an entity, that it "knows" what it is doing, that it has any aims to be careless about, that "wants” to it precreate in the first place, or for that matter, that it gives a damn about what happens . . . (pg. 16) in spite of the obvious falsity ” of the “crimes against Nature” argument, it is still present in many state legal codes. The word unnatural is bandied about by the detractors of homosexuality with passionate ease and conviction Tripp’s handling of Freudian ideology is brilliant. Unlike many others, he refuses to believe in the mentally of a few primacy 19th century disturbed with their Austro-Hungarians attendant emotional disorders. THE infamous guilt feelings, and now classic behavioral patterns. The limited scope of Freud’s data is dissected and examined in the light of modern biological, anthropological, and zoological facts. (Until only recently the of practitioners psychological pursuits based theorizations on patient studies rather than field work.) The Homosexual Matrix is the culmination of ten years of work by the author Although his major field of interest is psychology (he spent nine years on the faculty of the SUNY Downstate Medical Center and is currently practicing in New York). Tripp is equally at home in the areas of anthropology The and medical research. Origins ‘‘The of chapters and “The Heterosexuality” Origins Of Homosexuality” cover wide areas: male bonding (i.e. clubs, “boy’s night out,” etc.), the berdache of the American Indian, and the affections strong exhibited by the males of some primitive, or pre-judeo/;hristian, -indust ia 1, tribes. Although I feel there are not enough examples given, it is obvious from the text the and from extensive bibliography that the author is quite at home doing cross-cultural work with chapters dealing The biological materials and sexual inversion could easily stand by separate themselves publication. Sex researchers must necessarily explore the realm of when sciences biological attempting to explain our sexual behavior. This area of study can intricate and highly become note J. Money’s speculative: works dealing with the hormonal possible secretions and their impact upon the fetus during the first trimester, taking into account the minute amounts of different hormones, their actions (both separately and in concert with each other), the times of the secretions, ideal and actual growth rates of the fetus, and a host of other variables. Tripp handles this type of material in an easily read, jargon-free style that makes the reader aware of the research in these fields without the need for tedious trips to the dictionary He deals with the theory of sexual inversion (the reversal of standard behavior) gender-identified showing it to be prominent even in non-homosexual relations. This is some of the most interesting, even entertaining, reading 1 have society. There is one disappointing that dealing with the politics of homosexuality. It is not disappointing in what it says, but in what it does not say. In spite of this it is still a fascinating section. It covers the 1955-56 scandal in Boise, Idaho that was blown way out of proportion by a local political faction. (See The Boys of Boise by John Gerassi). It deals with the extreme political and economic on pressure brought to bear Kinsey and his associates after the publication of Sexual Behavior in the Human Male (1948). And it shows how people in power use their knowledge about others for political gain. (The FBI at one time operated a house of male prostitution and staffed it with homosexual agents.) What is not dealt with is the birth of the modern gay rights from the dating movement, Stonewall Riots in June of 1969. The oriented gay politically activist will consider this a major which it is. (Those oversight events took place during the research and it is author’s therefore curious at best that they and major legal changes since only play then an inconspicuous part in this work.) Tripp can be forgiven this oversight in view of his position (Those on psychotherapy. psychiatrists whose main source is derived from of income chapter — "cures” undoubtedly promised will try to find fault with Tripp’s findings here.) His conclusion on “cures” is simple; forget it! There “cure” for homosexual orientation. Human sexuality (in is no this case homosexuality) is so deeply engraved into our basic pre-school, and possibly pre-natal, experiences that it cannot be drastically altered to fit a more acceptable social pattern. That is to say. sexual orientation cannot homosexuality. His work is easily read and should be read by anyone who has an interest in the total picture of human sexuality. It is seldom that a reviewer gets a chance to read a basic text that will become a standard in clinical and general research. That is what a work that will this book is rank with those of Kinsey. Masters and Johnson, and Altman. Al Hershhagcr be changed, but the patient can be encouraged to form acceptance patterns in the self and develop the ability to cope with social pressures. Another oversight is the lack of material dealing with lesbianism, but this can be explained, at least to my satisfaction, by considering the difficulty a man would have writing about a totally female experience. It is to be hoped that some woman sex researcher will shortly deliver a work to us dealing with this important area.

Right now the generally bad economic conditions threaten the existence of the program, but even in past years when more money was available, state regulations prohibited any scholarship programs for athletics. On the other side of the coin, big time sports schools spend fantastic amounts of money to seek out and enroll high school graduates who have potential as collegiate athletes. Players like Archie Griffin and Scott May are offered tremendous benefits by schools across the land that want top, competitive programs. There are many critics who say that this overexpenditure is a misplacement of values that all this money should be channeled away from excessive recruiting and into education. Many people are willing to accept modest recruiting schemes, but gifts of money, cars and clothing are considered outlandish. There is a solution to all this and it should be called the “Sports University” or SU. It’s the dream of Sports Information Directors everywhere. SU is the perfect vehicle for the advancement of collegiate sports as it stands now, yet it protects the academic universities from blowing endowments on 8000 gallons of Gatorade. First of all, the university would be built in one of those nice towns in the southern midwest. Since Norman, Oklahoma is already taken, we think that Joplin, Missouri is the next best place. There would be high tuition for such an perhaps $9000 a year extravagant undertaking but it wouldn’t matter since everyone would be on scholarships anyhow. Although the student-athletes would be forced to live on campus, each would be permitted to decorate his three-room suite to his own liking, making use of a $750 decorating budget. The menu would be simple enough. There would be steak and potatoes for dinner. And for breakfast and lunch. Each player would get two pounds of steak and a quart of spuds for each meal. One quart of ice cream for late night snacks would also be available. The curriculum would he vastly different at SU than at a regular college. Instead of hogging athletes down with irrelevant courses like Crayons 101 or Organized Crime, SU would offer vocationally worthwhile courses. 01 course, five hours each day would be spent in intensive training with coaches, doctors, water boys, trainers, and locker room attendants on hand to take care of any eventuality. This practice time, along with regularly scheduled contests against other SU’s in places like Sacramento, California, Savannah, Georgia, Decatur, Illinois, and Amarillo, Texas, would - with just Get your new Metro Bus route map about everything you need to know to ride all — through Erie and Niagara Counties by sending a self-addressed, business-size envelope with 20« postage to Metro Bus, 855 Main St..

Incidentally, the SU program does not entail a set number of years. Students graduate when they’re drafted by a pro team, and graduation exercises are staggered to fall one week after the draft meetings in each sport. Getting back to the curriculum, it was stated earlier that SU would offer more worthwhile courses than what is normally available. For instance, Basic Acting would be a required course. In fact, it would span two semesters. In the first half, athletes would learn how to fool officials into calling penalties like roughing the kicker (for punters), tripping (for hockey players), and charging (for basketball players). In the second half, athletes would learn to speak well and look natural on camera so that they would be more in demand for advertising endorsements. Other courses would include Cliches 101 for press conferences and Cliches 201 for athletes interested in a post-career position in the announcing booth. Another entry would be “Successful Contract Negotiations” also known as “How to Beat The Rozelle Rule.” Students would be required to buy a ticket for admission to class $.50 for the back of the room and $.75 for the front. Classes sold out 72 hours in advance would be televised on campus closed circuit TV with voice over commentary by Howard Cosell. The conventional A-B-C . . grading system would of course be archaic in this sort of experimental atmosphere. Instead, students would be rated as one of the following; Superstar; One of the smartest and most consistent; Up and coming great; Superstar potential but prone to rookie mistakes; Good sixth man off the bench; Needs more experience; Lacks talent but has the drive and attitude to make it. Some classes would also be graded on the following basis; First string, second string, third string, bench warmer, taxi squad, minor • - . leaguer. But what about funding for all of this? Gate receipts is the logical answer. Imagine the public interest that an SU Conference would create. SU could charge $25 a ticket to football games, and it wouldn’t have to worry about not selling out. Besides after a few years, alumni earning salaries with six figures as pro players could be counted on regularly for large contributions. Other scholarship trust funds would be set up by athletes who are indebted to SU forever, and these funds could be managed to produce another steady stream of income. Betting on SU games would increase revenues as would TV rights, and at the same time, this would expose student athletes to what they would get when they turned pro. All in all SU is a revolutionary and brilliant idea which could change the face of collegiate sports forever. - RttenVio"""""" "TZ"""" 7 Fans: Kmcks York New i I j I I I Please come out and try to help the Knicks against the Braves Friday 9 Dec. 12 at 8:00 pm Page twenty - Buffalo Memorial Auditorium Tickets available at Norton Ticket Office. .

Join thethird Grua/in, by Larry Amoros Staff Writer Last weekend the hockey Bulls were scheduled to play a pair of games against the Ohio State Buckeyes. What they got instead was a collaboration of fistcuffs, boxing matches, high sticks, and cheap shots, intermingled with hockey. The Buckeyes, in Division I of the Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA) swept the series by scores of 6-3 and 8-2, leaving the Bulls with a 2-6-1 record, although all of the losses have come against Division I teams. In the series opener, the Bulls led 2-1 with 14 minutes left to play when Buffalo goaltender Johnny Moore mishandled a clearing attempt and fed the puck to Ohio’s Morris Nord, who fired the disc into the empty net. The Buckeyes tallied four more times in the final frame to put the game on ice, and send the Bulls looking to even things up on Tuesday in the world. night.

I who eventually yielded Haywood and Jim Kish. Spectrum biggest family | uncon vious in a scuffle with the Buckeyi Kish. O'lio State swept the two-game series from Buffalo 6-3 and 8-2. War on the ice The opener turned out to be an omen of things to come not only in the final results, but in the actual manner that the game was played. There was a total of 66 penalty minutes called (44 to Ohio State), the result of frequent high sticking, boarding and roughing infractions. The game got particularly out of hand in its waning minutes, when, with all the scoring completed, Ohio State’s Bruce Allworth instigated a fight with the Bulls' diminutive center Kurt Schoemann, thereby setting the stage for Tuesday night’s game. Nobody could have really predicted how the second game of the match would be played based upon the action in the first one. Buffalo coach Ed Wright thought the game would be played differently then it was. “1 thought they’d realize they couldn’t intimidate us and they’d stop all the crap. But instead they worked on intimidating the officials.” Work they did, and the officials apparently buckled under the constant pressure and abuse. Time after time, the Buckeyes chopped, hacked, and pushed their way towards the Bulls’ goal, without reprimand from the officials. Only some alert goaltending by Alex Swift kept Buffalo in the game in the tough moments. Swift recorded 38 saves in the contest with the last two Ohio State goals coming late in the game while the Bulls were a man down. Armageddon The referees, Robert Barnes and Richard Brinkman kept the penalty boxes full throughout the first two periods, but they finally lost control at 18:44 of the middle stanza as the walls came tumbling down. It started when Ohio State’s Steve Pankiw jumped Buffalo left winger Tom Haywood, and a fighl ensued. They were immediately mimicked by Jack Lampren and Ray "Toughie” , the “rjng” to ■ In the last chaotic bout, Haywood apparently hit his head on the ice, and remaned motionless in what seemed to be a state of unconsciousness for a few moments. The attacks were typical of the brand of “Zoo hockey” that the Buckeyes displayed throughout, and the officials were at the mercy of coach Jerry Welsh’s skaters. “They (the officials) let it get out of control. They ought to be ashamed of themselves,” said Wright. “Maybe they were awed by Ohio State University, and felt they had to even things out.” Wright was referring to the penalties called at the end of the major fight, when, despite proof from the scorer’s bench that Ohio State had three fighters to Buffalo’s two, the referee only sent two Buckeye players to the showers. OSU wins battle and war Amidst the rumbling and scuffling some hockey was played, and that’s when the Ohio skaters did their real damage. They scored on eight of the 46 shots they had, and kept goalie Swift busy much of the night. The Buffalo skaters did manage to direct 39 shots at Ohio goalies Dan Stergiou and Pat Lee, but the Buckeye netminders did a good job in keeping all but two out of the net. Jack Kaminska and Tony Scaring! tallied for the Bulls, and each also had an assist. Scaringi, normally a defenseman, was playing-left wing on the first line, as Kaminska was filling in at center for the ailing Rick Wolstenholme. The Bulls co-captain suffered a minor leg contusion in the opening game against Ohio State when he was slammed against the boards in the first period. The two losses to Ohio State could be attributed not only to the fact that the Buckeyes play in Division I, but also because of their recruiting process. Ohio State recruits players on a scholarship basis, which is in a sense, buying the players. Buying success “Being realistic, these players are hand picked,” commented Wright. “They’re on $60,000 grant programs, while we have kids right out of high school here because they love to play hockey. We playing Ohio State.” While the Bulls may not have any business playing a team like the Buckeyes, they skated well looking at it from Wright’s perspective. They played Ohio State almost evenly in the first two periods of both games, before finally losing in the third periods. “Why don’t they motivate the players who aren’t on grant aids? They should be searching themselves, not us,” added the Buffalo coach. “1 guess this whole series confirms my belief that in ECAC they don’t play this style of hockey. This isn’t college hockey, and this kind of crap isn’t appreciated by too many people,” Wright added. The skaters return to ECAC Division II competition on the thirteenth, when they travel to Ithaca College for two games against the Bombers. have no business Friday, 5 December 1975 . The Spectrum .

Wrestling Bulls wipe out Cornell 32—11 followed Hadsell's pin with one of his own. Prasgow had previously faced his foe, Tom Connick, and had beaten him embarrassingly with a major decision. A bar arm pin this time around shortened the match but increased the humiliation. The victory evened the Bulls' season record at I -1, atoning for last week’s 41 -0 slaughter by Eastern League foe Penn State. Yet despite the win. Coach Ed Michael claimed that the Bulls are not near their full potential as a team. Michael noted that several ol the Bulls were not as sharp against Cornell as they had been in the Colgate open last month. The Bulls will be in Pittsburgh next Tuesday for their second Eastern League match. If the Panthers are as tough this year as they have been in the past, then Buffalo will have its hands full. Michael expects the most help this year from his middle weight men, a switch from the past when 190-pounder Charlie Wright and 134-man Jim Young led the Bulls. Michael is quick to point out, however, that although his middle men are his most talented, stiffer competition in their weight classes may make things much more difficult. Tuesday night, the wrestling Bulls posted their first dual meet win of the season as they drubbed CornelT32-l 1 in Ithaca. Buffalo was led by freshmen Gene Tundo and co-Captains Eric Drasgow and Bruce Hadsell who each scored pins against the Big Red. Buffalo got off to a slow start in the lower weight classes. After freshman Tony Oliveri opened the contest with a decision win, Cornell posted a win and a draw in the next two classes. Tundo came out for the 142 match and promptly put Buffalo ahead to stay with a pin in a second round. With the score even at two, Tundo pinned his opponent with a Granby roll to Peterson. This aggressive move by Tundo sparked Buffalo to four more wins in a row. Hadsell clinched the match for Buffalo with his pin against Cornell's John Palladino. The 158-pounder was already out to a commanding 12-0 lead early in the second period when he delivered the crushing hold. .

Proposal for increase in medical school tuition by Charles Greenberg Spectrum Staff Writer The New York State Board of Regents has recommended that medical and dental school tuitions in the state be raised to $4,000 a year. This would mean an increase of about $2,400 above the current yearly tuition of $ 1,600 at State University of New York (SUNY) schools. The proposal was part of a Board of Regents plan for expanding medical and dental school facilities in New York State. The Regents seek to increase the number of medical school graduates from a current annual figure of 1,596 to 2,000 by 1990, due to the current shortage of physicians in New York. This would lead to an increase in the supply of physicians in the stale from the current 220 per 100,000 people to 260 per 100,000 people by the year 1990, according to Arnold Bloom, Director of Information at the State Department of Education. Bloom felt the thrust of the proposal would result in students paying an increased share of their annual education costs or about a third of the estimated $12,000 a year. Public costs down The proposed plan also calls for the state and federal governments to each pay about one third of the cost. This would mean a decrease in tuition and fees at public medical schools from about $8,600 a year per student, to $3,900 a year. The Regents also seek a boost in federal aid to both private and state schools, from the current $1,865 a year to $4,000 a year. “Another problem in New York is getting more upper division medical students to attend school,” according to Bloom. The Regents would like to encourage New York State residents studying abroad “to come home” for at least the last two years of study. In this way, the Regents can regulate the quality of medical care in the state. Presently, an aid formulate for upper class expansion pays a flat fee of $6,000 per student, based on a 1963 level of expansion. The Regents proposal includes plans for changing this to a $6,000 payment for each student, based on a 1973—74 level of expansion to aid more actively expanding schools. Bundy aid The Regents also asked for an increase in Bundy aid, which provides the eight private medical schools in New York state with funds each year, formulated on the basis of the total of degrees granted the previous year. The proposed program also calls for funds to aid in the conversion of community hospitals into teaching hospitals. It calls for the increasing of maximum student loan levels, from a yearly level of $2,500 to $5,000, and an increase of $10,000 to $20,000 in four years. “The Regents feel that doctors can count on a large income in latter years, to help offset this increased expense,” Bloom stated. State Senator James McFarland (R.-Tonawanda) who has been meeting with medical students at this University, consulted Willard Genrich, Chairman of the Regents Committee responsible for this study. According to McFarland. Genrich felt this program would increase the number of physicians in New York, while the cost increment for the students could be handled by increased educational grants. Power to act Neither the New York State Legislature nor the Regents themselves will have the actual power to raise ‘ tuition at SUNY medical and dental schools. According to the State Education Law (Section 3551), tuition at those schools is set by the SUNY Board of Trustees. McFarland stated that if the tuition increase does become a reality, the Legislature would have to work with the Tuition Assistance Program (TAP). McFarland felt that the Legislature would have to amend much of the current legislation to allow for increased benefits. Presently, tuition monies paid to SUNY, go to a general fund that pays for the bonded debts for SUNY construction, according to Carter Pannil, Vice President for Health Sciences at this University. He felt that unless there is a change in the law regarding the distribution of these funds, “we will not see the money stemming from the tuition increase.” Another major problem, according to Pannil, is a tuition increase along with a loan ceiling increase. This will lead to a slow improvement in the current situation. If students must borrow more money, he felt this would drain state resources so that the actual improvement in funding for state schools would not take place until students graduate and begin to repay these loans. Monetary woes Last year 384 students (70 percent of the medical school) received financial aid funneled through the financial aid office on this campus, said Rudy Williams, Financial Aid Officer and Assistant Dean of the Medical School. ‘The remaining students are saddled with loans from the bank or American Medical Association with interest rates as high as 11 percent,” added Williams. Williams said his office had about S341,000 available to meet the $1,634,235 needed by medical students. This year Williams estimates an additional drop of $27,000 in —continued on page 6— �Increase in donors expected this year by Mark Schwab Spectrum Staff Writer The Red Cross Bloodmobile expects to collect 1300 units of blood on campus this year, an increase of more than 100 units over last year. The success of the blood donation drive can be in large part attributed to the Blood Assurance Program, organized by Sub Board’s Health Division. v V With the start of the program last year, the number of units of donated blood jumped from 300 in 1973 to over 1200 in 1974. The increase was achieved by scheduling a Bloodmobile vision on one of the three University campuses every ten weeks, instead of a random four visits during 1973. The Bloodmobile’s last stop was on Tuesday at the Fargo Cafeteria in the Ellicott Complex and Its next scheduled appearance at the Main Street Campus in the Fillmore Room, on January 30. The number of donors averages between 200 and 250 per session or approximately three percent of the University community. Sub Board Health Divisipn Director A1 Campagna expressed concern for greater participation on the part of the student body. “Eighty open-heart surgeries are planned this year in the city of ten units of blood are needed for each one. People Buffalo alone need blood desperately, and it can’t be made synthetically.” > ... Benefits He also said the Blood Assurance Program entitles any faculty member or student and their families free blood in the case of emergencies, up until one year after departure from the institution. This blood supply and time limit also applies to any independent donors. Before any potential donor can give blood, it must be tested for deficiencies. The Bloodmobile is equipped to test respiration and pressure levels, body temperature, hemoglobin count, and whether or not the blood'is diseased. The donor must be between 18 and 65 years of age, not under 110 pounds, have a clean bill of health, not be pregnant and not have given blood in the last eight weeks. One unit of blood (SOcc) takes from IS to 20 minutes to give, and about two hours to replace completely. There are no side effects, and the donors can usually return to their normal activities immediately. By-products The blood is used for several purposes, all of them related to the life-saving measures. As soon as it is taken, the “whole blood” labelled either type O, A, B or AB, and Rh positive or Rh negative. Whole blood keeps only 21 days before the chemicals and proteins break down. Usually the plasma part of the blood is separated from the red and white cells by a process called centrifugation, because plasma is the same in everyone, regardless of blood type, and can be preserved much longer. A transfusion uses either plasma or whole blood, depending upon the patient’s condition and the time involved. Certain proteins can be extracted from the left-over red and white cells that help in treatment of various diseases and conditions. For example, fibrinogen can be made into transparent film that increases blood clotting to stop bleeding during surgery. Serum albumin is used for diseases of the kidney and liver, and in treatment of severe burns. Gamma globulin helps the body fight measles, and serotonin helps in combating shock. The American National Red Cross Association has estimated the nation’s potential blood requirement to be approximately six million units a year, or over ten units per minute. About three million units a year are collected. The blood is distributed to as many hospitals and physicians as possible.

Page three �College curtails enrollments the 64 campuses, plus a moratorium on building the Chronicle of Higher Education by Diane Auerbach projects, reported. (CPS) Students applying to state universities this winter may find themselves out in the cold. Although many private colleges are scrambling to fill empty classroom seats, public universities, with an eye on bursting classrooms and thinly stretched budgets, are turning students away. As a result, thousands of people who have attempted to escape an unfriendly job market by seeking refuge in school may find the doors closed by institutions that have economic problems of their own. In Colorado, hundreds of applicants were turned away from the University of Colorado’s (UC) Boulder campus, Colorado State University and the University of Northern Colorado because of enrollment ceilings imposed by the slate legislature. Classroom space is at such a premium that UC's College of Arts and Sciences has even launched a plan to weed out marginal students. The college has changed its rules to allow for academic suspension twice a year instead of once and has abolished the “sliding scale” which formerly gave a break to students with a grade point average below 2.0. Turning away so many qualified students while keeping students with deficient grades is an “unconscionable position,” explained Arts and Sciences Associate Dean John Carnes. Statewide limits on next year's full enrollment are also on the drawing board in Merida. Armed with a budget designed to handle a 1.3 percent increase in enrollment this fall, school officials were surprised by an increase of 8.7 percent. Although most of the pressure has come from the Florida slate -legislature, a move to cut back student enrollment is also supported by the faculty. Florida Stat; University faculty have complained that their workload has increased 20 percent in the last three years, with “possibly disaslerous affects on the students." according to one professor.

Located in the basement of Hayes Hall, it keeps national, as well as local publications informed about State University at Buffalo activities and events. Newsworthy items are usually communicated to the outside media by means of daily news releases, according to Information Service news editor Ken Service. Service said that “nearly 100 percent of the information receives a positive response from the recipients. He attributed this to Service's record of credibility. “We function as a sort of filter of news for the outside." Service commented. “Kvery aspect of any given news item is treated objectively." Multi-faceted Besides newspapers, the Information Service sjnds material to magazines, trade journals, other Stale University campuses, and local television and radio stations. The written material is often accompanied by video tapes the Service produces itself. Hints, which are distributed to television stations outside of the Buffalo area, usually cover feature items, such as a faculty project or interviews with notable visitors to the campus. On the national level, the media determines the degree ot importance of each news item. Recent and outstanding developments in study and research are sent to national publications in the lorni ol news letters often with related photos. It is left to the discretion ol each publication whether or not to copy the story as is oi to do additional research. The Information Service staff, headed by James DeSantis, is for covering all news on campus.

The blind are no exception. The Seeing Eye in Morristown, New Jersey is an organization helping the blind free themselves from the need to depend on other people through the use of “man’s best friend,” the dog. Specially trained personnel first teach dogs how to guide a blind person and then show the blind masters how to use their new-found freedom of mobility. To date, more than 6,000 seeing eye dogs have given service to blind all over the country. The Seeing Eye, which is today the experienced dog guide school in the world, came into existence on January 29, 1929 as a result of the foresight and perseverance of Dorothy Harrison Eutis. After visiting a German training school and observing shepard dogs taught to guide blinded war veterans, Bust is wrote an article about the facility for the Saturday Evening Post. The article stirred a reaction in favor of establishing a similar training school in the United States. most Greater freedom “The dog is a liberating factor in life to some blind... not a luxury,” Eustic daimed. “It is not our idea to advocate the placing of dog guides with all the Mind far from it. The dog guide is suitable for the man who can use him in his daily life, who wants an aid in making himself a free economic unit... who wants a wider, freer - life.” The training center is the last step in a vast process of breeding and selection. Not only must the puppies exhibit excellent wind, limbs, eyesight and hearing, but their reactions to other dogs, cats, human beings and unexpected, startling noises are also important. / Many breeds are immediately discounted because of size. Bitches are irritating habits of males at lamp posts, trees, automobile tires or fire hydrants. Bitches are also less agressive and not as easily aroused by other dogs. It takes three months to train a Seeing Eye Dog. The first lessons arc in basic obedience. The dogs are trained to walk on the left and the trainers pay special attention to the “sit” position. Unlike other dogs, they must learn to draw their hind quarters to their front legs and not move until commanded to do so. The hated harness The introduction of the harness is another difficult test for the dog and trainers allow up to two weeks for the dog to adjust to this alien situation. Dogs are also taught to walk around obstacles, such as mail boxes or poles, leaving ample room for the master to pass. Dogs must be able to judge overhead obstacles and low blocking obstacles as well. Initial road drills are at first conducted on the training ground premises. Dogs learn to walk in the middle of the sidewalk, to leave enough room on either side in which the master can maneuver. The dog must cross the stree at right angles to avoid an accident in which the master falls over the dog. The dog lea ms how to disobey intelligently, how to say no to a command that might be dangerous to carry out. From time to time, the dog is tested under rigid conditions to mae sure she is aMe to take responsibility for a human life. The dog must be able to work at busy intersections and in heavy pedestrian and street traffic. Adjustment time Not until the dog passes all the tests, many of them with the trainer blindfolded, is the animal teamed up with a blind person. The master and dog go through three weeks of training during which time they are never apart from each other. The dog must learn to shift its loyalties from the trainer to the new master. Both the blind master and the dog need time to adjust to each other. The master is taught in classes of eight other people how to guide and direct his dog. Interpreting the signals that come back to him through the leather harness handle is the most important lesson to be learned. Praise for the dog is greatly encouraged both verbally or with a gentle pat. Correction for poor performance is also encouraged either verbally or with a jerk at the leash. All the dog asks is affection and appreciation and assurance that the master will let her know when she is not performing well. Individual needs of the students are dealt with on a personal basis. If necessary, additional training is given at home after the formal instruction has concluded. Modern kennels on the grounds of The Seeing Eye house 150 dogs, trained or in the process of being trained. Although most of the dogs are german shepards, other breeds such as labradors, golden retrievers and boxers are occasionally used. Controlled breeding To assure a sufficient supply of suitable dogs, a breeding farm for shepards is operated in Mendham, New Jersey under the direction of a licensed geneticist. When the puppies arc ten or 12 weeks old, they are farmed out to 4-H Club children to be raised in a home-like atmosphere until they reach training age. Regular veterinary services safeguard the health of the dog at all times. Seeing Eye instructors must serve an apprenticeship, study animal psychology, learn to understand human nature and the most importantly, recognize capabilities of blind people. The Seeing Eye develops all of its own instructors in an on-the-job training program. The sighted public has come to regard the seeing eye dog as a symbol of the independence blind people can achieve. The dogs ere actually considered a convenient and efficient means of mobility, keeping their masters active and useful. Blindness often is accompanied by fear and loneliness. The Seeing Eye training process is often a rebuilding of morale as well. Success stones According to a recent survey, almost 90 percent of Seeing Eye graduates arc employed or usefully occupied. More than 17 percent work as salesman, II percent are homemakers and 8 percent own businesses. Others have succeeded as teachers, stand operators and musicians. Some are going to college, while others are employed as social workers, lawyers, computer programmers, x-ray technicians,' switchboard operators, bakers and journalists. They report favorable reactions on the part of employers and fellow employees. One finds dogs guiding the blind in almost every sector of American society, from small towns to big cities, in factories, on farms and in offices. Not all of America’s 45,000 bind people want guide dogs, however. Some have other disabilities that prevent them from relying on dogs. A large number, although classified as legally blind, have sufficient sight to permit them to get around with little or no help at all. —I RENAULT Up to $L25 OFF on orders of chicken wings Now!

In spite of this, only about nine million dollars is spent by Canadian advertisers on these same networks.

CETA, widely viewed by its critics as a stopgap measure to relieve unemployment without any long range goals, has been the center of controversy several times in city politicking. Peace center Earlier this year, Buffalo faced withdrawal of its revenue sharing funds due to widely reported instances of nepotism in hiring. The threat was temporarily abated when CETA was reorganized and placed under the direct responsibility of Human Resources Commissioner Robert Penn. The workers in question were subsequently fired. More recently, CETA came under fire when a Democratic candidate for Councilman-at-Large, Anthony Masiello, was accused of using city workers making a dog survey on the city's West Side to distribute his campaign literature.

Not only is the B-l bomber unnecessary for defense purposes, a Peace Center booklet explains, but it is wasteful, ecologically dangerous, and inflationary. Further, it would perpetuate the arms race, provide “super profits to corporations of the military-industrial complex." and may be used against developing countries in future Vietnam-type wars, the booklet adds. to dclcat B-l is a bummer American taxpayers will foot the bill estimated between $50-90 billion over 30 years, or about $1000 a piece for the average taxpayer tor what Senator William Proxmire (D..

Page seven . �Guest Opinion Editorial by The Committee for Responsible Medical Education Case for accreditation About 100 juniors and seniors currently enrolled in the Undergraduate Social Work Program stand to be denied advanced status in graduate schools and possible acceptance into same if administrators of the School of Social Work choose not to seek accreditation this year. The undergraduate program, which has lost its "approved" status by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE), is expected to be phased out completely by June 1977. However, spokespersons for the program say termination has no bearing on whether the program can be accredited for the remaining year and a half it remains in existence. Applying for accreditation status from the CSWE simply entails updating by December 15 a two volume self-study report which has already been written in anticipation of the procedure, and scheduling a site visit by CSWE evaluators in the near future. Yet sources say that Sherman Merle, Dean of the School of Social Work, does not want to seek accreditation because of alleged departmental shortcomings he feels will hurt the program's chances. Merle's position, as head of a program he has a responsibility to defend, is not only unreasonable but unfair to the students who were accepted with the understanding that it was approved and pending accredidation. Additionally, arguments of "shoddy field placement" and a lack of full time faculty have been refuted by undergraduates who believe the program meets CSWE No one of us applauds the maldistribution of physicians in this country or the limited number of available spaces in first-year medical classes. Yet, the New York State Regents’ proposal to alleviate the doctor shortage by increasing tuition at state medical schools in effect accuses medical students of complicity in the perpetuation of social inequities which we ourselves condemn. Indeed, “accusation” does not fully convey the scope of the Regents’ action. Indicted by virtue of our professional bent, we are convicted and fined not for past or present crimes, but in light of what we will become. Because the 150 percent tuition increase jeopardizes all our efforts, we naturally fear for ourselves. But we also are concerned that attempts to improve physician distribution and ultimately patient care will be a which plan seriously undermined by the foundation of physician compromises training. The regents’, speculating on our future incomes, claim the certainty of a physician’s wealth justifies enlarging a student’s financial burden. Should we reply that if health care is reorganized at the national level, doctor’s income will be markedly reduced and strictly regulated? Obviously, both arguments beg the question since each transforms hypothesis into foregone conclusion, and thus avoids careful consideration of the costs and role of medical education. A more realistic understanding of medical that approximately 70 training recognizes percent of medical students at this University qualify for tuition assistance. Indeed, nearly 40 percent of the medical student body receives full tuition scholarships. The need for financial support, then, is very real. And yet, no one has identified the source from which new loans will originate.

It was brought to my attention that I had disrupted their operations by exposing the identity of one of their undercover men on the back basement steps of The Spectrum Though skeptical of groundless predictions, still we must believe our friends when they anticipate withdrawing from medical school as increased costs overwhelm all sources of support. For some, therefore, “public education” will be rendered meaningless by acts of those state agencies whose rolt ostensibly is to maintain the education and welfare of state residents. For others, a personal debt exceeding $15,000 will make lucrative subspecialities not merely inviting, but virtually essential. We ask whether medical service, defined by interest rates rather than by patient and community needs, will overcome the glaring shortcomings which now trouble all of us. As future physicians, the responsibility for altering inadequate health care delivery will rest to a large extent on our shoulders. But at this stage in our training, that responsibility can only exist as a guide to future performance. To twist this moral obligation into a financial millstone wholly distorts the purpose of medical education by replacing academic and clinical competence with personal wealth as a criterion for future medical practice. In short, neither the reality of medical student financial need nor the goal of conscientious patient care warrants a tuition increase, and we therefore declare our firm opposition to a proposal which threatens the substance of our work and the heart of our for New York standards for accreditation, and that accreditation is The following “Letter to the Hditor” appeared recently in an Omaha, Nebraska, daily newspaper: essential to future careers and educational opportunities.

Undergraduates in the School of Social Work enrolled at this university in good faith athat their program would be accredited by the time they graduated. There is no excuse, therefore, for its administrators, whether out of apathy or sheer laziness, to select not not pursue accreditation status. The money involved, a maximum of $1000, is negligible considering the amount of money it could cost students for an extra year of graduate school and one less year of working. Accreditation will only serve the best interests of the students. The School of Social Work has that fundamental obligation to consider, assistance when its overall contribution to medical schools will decline under the Regents’ proposal? Can we rest assured that the state will secure federal funds when the trend at the national level has been to reduce direct medical student support? In fact, no guarantee exists that monies derived from tuition increases will be returned to medical schools to finance improvements and expansion of student loans. how to do things if you were ever to get around to doing them.

The Spectrum Monday, 24 November 1975 . �DAMNS SUREST Who's screwing whom? by Richard Korman To the Editor. While the University awaits the final terms of the settlement for continuing the Record Coop, several points are worth considering. Although the Student Association (SA) Executive Committee conveyed an atmosphere of victory following Friday evening’s last minute agreement with President Robert Ketter, the issue of the Record Coop is far from settled and the terms which will be part of any compromise with the University administration are so far only partly known. The agreement to temporarily suspend the Coop for two weeks was made in a closed-door session between Ketter and SA Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde. Why Lalonde was chosen from among the SA Executive Committee is not known. All that is known is that one student was arbitrarily empowered to negotiate a compromise over the fate of the Record Coop. A second thing worth noting is SA’s official disapproval of the rally that was scheduled in Haas Lounge for last Friday at noon, but which actually took place about an hour later, outside. In an interview shortly after the temporary agreement was announced, Lalonde offered some unsolicited criticism of editorials which appeared in The Spectrum the previous week. The editorials were deeply critical of Ketter, his administration and on Friday, called for the resignation of Vice President Edward Doty. Lalonde indicated his disgust with the short but lively rally which transpired that afternoon, saying it could have been “a disaster,” and equating it with the vandalism against Cavages in the days previous. Typical was the response of one member of the Executive Committee who declared, “We won because we weren’t radical.” Sentiments like these are incredibly naive. The Record Coop has been the SA Record Coop for several years already (the statement hammered out by Ketter and Lalonde restates this fact), and an argument can be made that SA itself was negligent in not seeing that the original terms for the operation of the Coop were not followed scrupulously, by either the SA Treasurer or the Coop staff. Certainly the Executive Committee was aware that Cavages had been threatening a formal complaint for years now, and had been the impetus behind the Record Coop’s moving last year from premises on the first floor to the basement room it now occupies. Instead, SA has consistently portrayed the Record Coop “crisis” as something which began last week. The letter from Lalonde which appeared in Friday’s issue of The Spectrum was disturbing for the facts which it conveniently omitted and for its ugly, almost childish tone. Lalonde objected to last Wednesday’s editorial, which stated that since the signing of the temporary agreement two weeks ago, the University administration has not made any mention of the Record Coop. Lalonde says that Arthur Lalonde’s letter of November 21 indicates clearly the low regard that the Student Association has for its constituency, and its clearly elitist attitudes. Art, students are not children who need to be kept in the dark. We demand the right to an open, honest government which should need no closed door sessions to restrict the flow of information. Why, simply because no one asked, should the information not be made public? Anyway, someone did ask repeatedly, me, and received little or no information when asked if I could help. Secondly, I do not trust Dr. Ketter or any of his cronies. They have lied before, they are probably lying now, and they will lie to us in the future. It is naive to believe that they (the administration) are suddenly going to change and give us the rights that are undeniably ours. Thirdly, why are you so superior that instead of coming up one floor, two flights of stairs, approximately 25 steps, yourself, you send Dave Rothenberg up with your prepared press release. Fourth, SA complains about The Spectrum incessantly. I am not going to get involved in that. But to give rise to a slow down of information to this “rag” as you call it, is to do more irreparable harm than can be imagined. If the only information that will be henceforth available will be SA press releases, okayed by all of you, I for one will not touch a single part of any. And lastly, the false impressions do not come from The Spectrum. Why didn’t you publicize how much SA screwed up on the Women’s Studies situation? And how about SASU? And why bullshit about New York City? Who have you spoken to who panics about default, SASU? Or does this all come from inside your heads. This letter is not directed to one person in particular, except for a few noted places. This is to all of you power hungry freaks who get off on seeing your names in print. Some of you were my friends, hopefully some of you still are. But I, for one, am totally disgusted with your self-righteousness and holier-than-thou outlook. We must get together, we cannot be fragmented by this pettiness. Who is more important, your egos, or the students of this school????? Steven Milligram Correction In Friday’s issue of The Spectrum, it was incorrectly reported in the title of an article that Ramon Tirado of the University of Puerto Rico would speak today.

Z 6096AH ampth A L v the reason we have not heard from the administration is because they are waiting for the completion of proposals by SA, and, if The Spectrum had simply asked SA what it was doing, it would have found that SA was indeed developing “systems” to continue the Coop. Except for two things. With SA patting itself on the back in celebration of the temporary agreement, one might reasonably expect that when the Executive Committee did finally come up with a plan, they would quickly inform The Spectrum and the student body. But this was not done. The second explanation for The Spectrum's “lapse” in reporting was that in protest of the editorial which appeared the following Wednesday, a member of the Executive Committee told an editor of the paper that The Spectrum might be receiving news from SA “late” from now on. Withholding information as a means of manipulating the press is something the University administration has also threatened from time to time. There is a special revulsion when it comes from students. And the reason it was done was because at a timeSA officials were expecting effusive praise, The Spectrum only acknowledged their “competence,” (which was generous) and instead praised the outcry from the student body. Because they weren’t lauded, SA chose to retaliate. It should be noted that it has been difficult to obtain statements from the Executive Committee throughout the Record Coop controversy. Lalonde’s criticism of The Spectrum editorials apparently means that he does not question the administration’s conduct of regarding the Record Coop, that he does not feel Mr. Doty should resign, and that rallies are not the way to solve things. Indeed, Lalonde has taken the unsavory role of apologist for the administration. In some instances, rallies may not be the best way to broach a political crisis. But there was nothing wrong with the rally that took place behind Norton Hall two weeks ago; the people who spoke covered topics which SA would never touch publicly, and was well received by the small group which listened. But to Lalonde, movements among people have no meaning, except for rallies by SA advertised with mandatory fee money. Lalonde believes the Record Coop should be covered only in terms of what government accomplishes in the private offices of Norton and Hayes Halls, and not through what happens among students. Lalondes’ calling The Spectrum a “bankrupt, worn out rag” could have touched off a fratracidal war among students. One wonders what his motives were. And one must also be amazed at the arrogance of the Executive Vice President of the SA who was elected by a percentage of the undergraduates small enough to make reasonable people believe that it may not truly be a representative student government.

A NEk ROTTEN—WAIT A Ml Bearing in mind that I write this in the depths of a Thursday night, and my question may well be meaningless by the time that you read this, why is that trailer still on top of that car near the English Department? I mean it Was a little strange when it happened, but how much mileage can you get out of the same conversation piece? Which implies, of course, that there is a reason for nobody having done anything about that trailer-squashed car. A reasonable reason, that is. I can think of anxiety provoking reasons all by myself such as I am imagining the whole thing, nothing like that can sit there for more than a week without being touched if it were real, could it? You didn’t you? It must bother me some, saw it. because I keep trying to imagine more reasons for the situation each time I drive by, i.c., they must be for more waiting for the insurance investigator! than a week, and how come nobody ever heard of . . - photographs? 1 certainly do work at making the world intelligible. Makes one wonder what I’d do if confronted with the irrational, doesn’t it? (Well, I certainly am glad you asked that question! It shows great insight into the real bases of the problem. However, I must inform you that on the advice of his id, he refuses to answer the question. Thank you.) Forgive the manic note to all this. I am up to my ear lobes in work which is I supposed to be in the mail before Thanksgiving, which r C means that I have less than a week, nay, less than six days as I sit here and scribble this in i/v| K desperate haste. Outside of that intrusion of reality, however, there is another anxious tint on by Steese the horizon. j hate to be the one to point this out to you, but the last weekend before beginning of the “HOLIDAY SEASON” has just slipped by you. It is no longer permissible to just get quietly and depressedly drunk on a weekend, now feeling bad will get you treated as the churl you are for intruding reality into the land of turkey and tinsel. Oh, the holidays! The tinkle of the cash register bell, the clang clang of cashiers breaking open new rolls of change, the annual effort to prove to everybody that you love them! Pardon me, but I think my cynicism has broken loose again. 1 had it chained up there for a while when Nixon had to resign, but Gerald Ford has made control most difficult. Everytime 1 think 1 can get a collar on that silly cynicism, Ford does something else and it goes into another tantrum. I am so naive it is hard to believe it. I keep finding myself wanting to believe that honor and justice, etc., really are variables that influence the leadership of the land. And everytime I have to answer the question of why I won’t learn that honor don’t get nowhere near the notes of l/lO ll'v AtlfH Ll/lU Lf * Threat to freedom To the Editor. This letter is written to protest the recent actions of the so-called United States Labor Party against several members of the faculty of this University, and in particular those actions directed at a member of the Philosophy Department. Dr. Kurtz has been the continued target of this self-proclaimed leftist political group; their tactics ranging from the dissemination of slanderous misinformation concerning Kurtz’s political and ethical position to the repeated disruptions of his classes to threats upon his life and upon those of his Paul Kurtz, family. I cannot oppose the right of this group to hold and articulate whatever political opinions they may choose, however irrational and untrue they may be. Regardless of the fact that, after analysis of their confusin and contradictory ideologies and their tactics leaning toward terrorism, they can only be characterized as borderline psychotics or as a thinly disguised band of reactionaries, their right to freedom of thought and speech still holds. This is also not the place to discuss the implications of the threats of violence leveled at Dr. Kurtz: this remains a matter to be resolved in the courts. The issue with which I am concerned is the repeated disruption of Dr. Kurtz’s classes by individuals who are neither students in those classes, nor even members of the University community. While it is the right of the members of this party to proclaim whatever political stance they deem significant, it is also the right of students at this University to attend their classes without fear of disruption, and the right of faculty members to discuss any subject they may choose with those classes without a similar fear. The students and faculty here are quick to oppose any hint of censorship of professors espousing controversial political or philosophical view by the administration. Are they prepared to tolerate this new and more dangerous kind of censorship coming from without? I urge all students and faculty to join me in opposition to the present actions of the U.S. Labor Party; actions which can be viewed only as a threat to freedom of thought and the interchange of differing ideologies, basic components of any viable atmosphere of open academic their confusion and contradictory ideologies and their tactics leaning inquiry.

My specific immediate cause has something to do with the pancake house on Sheridan Drive that already has “Happy Season’s 75,” up on their sign. A whole month of this no worse yet! I forgot about New Years, which is another week away more! I think I may throw up on my Christmas card list. How can this be avoided; how is it possible to sleep until January third, when the last of the hangovers and bowl game leftovers will be gone! But let us go on to a more cheerful note. How much more of a cheerful note may be a problem which depends on you and your Thanksgiving plans. My experience leads me to believe that Thanksgiving is a particularly hyped holiday in terms of family closeness. If you are one of those rare folks who actually experiences all the love and caring they need and want from their family group, you can be excused for the rest of the column, and I give you fair warning that what follows is the annual - - “how-to-make-the-most-of-it” speech. The version of reality I sell has to do with expectations. This means that as I see it, holidays at which you are supposed to feel something particular are likely to be very difficult situations. I don't really care which holiday it is, or what feeling Trying to produce a set of feelings to order has to be very, very difficult. 1 don’t know what the average experience is. Obviously people who live in Buffalo, and whose parents also live in the area, probably see more of their families than those of us with either scattered family groups or the whole outfit in another city. So let us take the case A. Student, who spent at least some time at home during the summer. Obviously that last experience, which for many is perhaps three months ago, has a lot to do what the expectations are in going back. And whatever happened three months ago, hopefully both you and they have changed at least a little. But for many of us, the relationship has to be one based on history, virtually by definition, since there has been no actual relationship over the last three months. Which means you have to use your own expectation to be social. All right, class, how many of you can remember how one or more members of your family take their coffee or tea? With or without sugar? With or without cream? What about your close circle of friends? How do they take it? That data has to be an expectation, since all you can know is how they used to take it. Anyway, the lower people seem to be able to keep their hopes, the more room you may be able to give the other people in a situation. If a party doesn’t have to be terrific, just enjoyable, then it may turn out to be good; but my history with parties which set out to be extravaganzas, is that you better be very, very careful. So the more you can let all those weird people you are planning to eat turkey with be themselves and like them, warts and all. without needing more than an occasional hug from them, the better off you will all probably be tat well and enjoy. Christmas survival lessons begin next week.

(ISA /RS Committee �Military strength will not discourage a mar The idea that military strength tends to deter war is being challenged by researches at this University Ravoll Naroll, professor of Anthropology and co-author ot Military Deference in History examined twenty historical periods and randomly selected one decade out of each period. The researches asked three questions about the leading nation of each decade; Was that nation trying to avoid war? Did that nation have a stronger and belter army and navy than its leading rival? For how many months of the ten years were those two nations at war? Naroll expected there would be a correlation between positive answers to the first two questions and the detlerence ot war. However, the researchers found that superior military strength does not seem to have any effect on the prevention of war. , Nuclear Age Naroll believes that his study is relevant to the modern nuclear age. In a recent article in The New York Times. Naroll wrote that despite its tremendous military strength, the United States has been involved in wars in eleven of the last thirty years. \;,roll cited studies by Professor J. David Singer and associates at ihe (.'diversity of Michigan which demonstrate that "balance of power” foreign policy fails to deter war and is simply a justification for increased military spending and the maintenance ol nuclear stockpiles. Part of the problem in effectively preventing war and controlling the arms race is the federal government's failure to finance arms control research, he said. Naroll maintains that the Ford administration race is more interested in studies that support the growth of the arms control. support arms rather than in those that tend to lie also points out that President Ford's 1976 budget would give 1,1000 the amount arms control and disarmament research less than research and 1.7 for detense spent on defense research (2 billion research). million for arms control Supports detente According to Naroll. a realistic defense would be sufficient to protect us and anything beyond that level is wasteful and irrational. In his article Naroll wrote: “The $104 billion Defense Budget that President Ford wants for fiscal 1070 may buy us a $104 billion triumph in the next world war . I doubt if it can buy us a nickel's worth of peace.” As a practical step. Naroll advised people to oppose excessive military spending. He also supports political and military detente between the United States and the Soviet Union as a step in the direction of arms control and possibly bilateral disarmament. Textbook prices Fallen victim to inflation by Cynthia Crossen Special to The Spectrum Standing in the aisles of college (CPS) bookstores across the country are hundreds of students groaning and sighing as they peek cautiously at the price on the inside cover of the assigned textbook. Their heads swim as they silently tally up the bill for this semester’s required books. Next semester will be worse if book prices continue to rise as they have steadily for the past 10 years. Prices for publishing materials have fallen victim to inflation and the financially-troubled textbook industry is passing those increases on to its captive audience students. The textbook is still the primary teaching tool in the majority of undergraduate classes. And college students at most school stores pay exactly what the publishers have suggested. Trying to undercut the competing bookstores in the area would result in a serious loss to the bookstore since the profit margin on textbooks is so low, according to the manager of a University of Minnesota bookstore. “We make far less than one percent profit after all our expenses are taken out," claimed Jim Simons, manager of the bookstore at Oregon College of Education. Simons also said that many bookstores are not getting enough to cover the cost of the books, shipping and handling. To cover the costs, some college bookstores are charging students for the freight cost as well as the actual cost of the textbooks. - Rising prices According to Simons, textbook prices have not risen as drastically this year as they have in the past few years. “However, hard-cover $7.95 and$ H.95 books might be a think of the past,” he said. Actually, textbook prices rose } percent more than the consumer index in 1974. Publishers blamed the rising prices on increasing costs of paper, ink, binding material, labor, loans and distribution. Today the average price of a hard-cover book is about SI3.25, a college librarian estimated. Publishers are also spending more money producing textbooks because they are trying to recruit more big-name professors to write the newest texts. Then it takes a busy professor four to six years to produce it. By the time the student is buying the book, it is already dated and a new edition is in the works. At most bookstores, an outdated edition is worth noting. Books which have been used for one quarter or semester and have not been reordered by another professor for the next are worth almost nothing. The manager of the University bookstore at Stephen Austin University in Texas pointed out that a book which retailed for $9.75 would be worth 25 cents to the wholesaler if the book were no longer needed for a class at that school. If a book is going to be used again for the next semester, students may be able to buy the textbook used, usually at >7 '/percent of its original price. But with the heavier use of paperback texts, used books are becoming more scarce. Some book dealers believe paperbacks are the student skvorst buy. “There’s very little price difference between paperback and hardback books in certain instances,” one said. “Hardback books are also more durable than paperback books and attain a higher resale value." Not all bookstores seem to be struggling with low prices and high costs, however. The “non-profit’ bookstore at Western Washington State College has accumulated a surplus of S297.000 in the past few years. The bookstore gives discounts on many items but continues to show a profit. Many bookstores make their biggest profits on non-book items such as pocket calculators, clothing and supplies. At St. Louis University, two students have set up an alternative to the used book business on campus. The women have been organizing a book coop which will accept used books from students and sell them for the amount the owner is asking. The owner will receive all the money collected for the sale of the books and will get the books back if they are not sold.

The Spectrum Page eleven �Peace center... a —continued from page 7— In 1970, when plans for the Supersonic Transport plane were cancelled due to public opposition, Boeing, who held big contracts, shut down rather than convert to peace-time production. Thousands of workers were laid off while stockholders received their dividend checks. Today, Boeing has huge contracts for the B-l. A 1971 General Accounting Office study showed that corporate profits on equity investment for all manufacturing averages 18 percent 20 percent, while profits for military production average as much as 56 percent. In civilian production, many of the costs are paid by the corporation, while in military production, they are covered by the - taxpayer. Another major criticism of the B-l is the anticipated destruction of the stratosphere and resultant deterioration of human health. Able to fly at high altitudes at twice the speed of sound, the B-l would leave a trail of pollutants that could destroy five percent of the ozone, which screens out cancer-causing ultra-violet rays. Nuclear accidents? Additionally, the B-l, like other bombers, will carry nuclear weapons housing plutonium. John Gofman, professor of Medical Physics at the University of California said, “One pound of plutonium 239 represents the potential few some nine billion human lung cancer any plutonium dispersed into the biosphere presents a major doses carcinogenic hazard for more than the next thousand human ... generation." While the Air Force assures us that accidents are unlikely, history tells us differently. In 1968, 33 major accidents involving nuclear weapons were recorded. Peace Center members also maintain that military production does not create as many jobs as civilian production. They point to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics which show that the same amount of money spent in the civilian sector could create up to 60 percent more jobs than if it is spent on military production.

The Great Lakers tied the game when Ray Seeback fed Ron Gabrielli with a centering pass, and Gabrielli hit the twine. Oswego took the lead when Gabrielli fed the puck to Dan Ane, who drilled a shot into the net past Morrc. The Bulls tied the score at two, only to have Oswego take the lead when Seeback, the Lakers' shifty fittle center beat Moore with a backhander on a breakaway. In the third period Ray Gruarin tallied twice for the Bulls, and they appeared to have the game won, when referee Robert Barnes sent left winger Haywood off for tripping with 55 seconds to go in the game. This gave the Lakers just the advantage they needed. With a power play opportunity, and the face-off deep in the Buffalo zone, Oswego Coach Herb Hammond pulled Palusco, to give the Lakers a two man advantage. The strategy paid off, as Anc tallied within 30 seconds to knot the score at four. Ane’s goal came off a scramble in front of Moore’s net, and with the Bulls’ goalie down, the puck slipped in over the line.

He felt the game was not a true test of the players abilities, since the quality of their opponents was so low. Even so, Richardson was up off the bench yelling at his players throughout the game. “I learned one thing tonight,” he observed. “Everytime they threw the ball they got the fly pattern [i.e., fast break]. We didn’t get downcourt fast enough. Somebody had to come back if we miss a shot.” Richardson also thought that Buffalo had to work harder on their offense, despite their 147 points and 66 percent shooting. “We have to work on our patterns,” he said. “There are three or four patterns we have to learn better.” Adjusting to system The reason the Bulls have yet to perfect their offense is because only five of them played for the Bulls varsity last year. Richardson noted that those five (Gary Domzalski, Sam Pellom, Mike Jones, Larry Jones and Otis Home) plus Cooper were not having any trouble catching on to his offensive system. Cooper pointed out that the team he played on last year was very similar to the Bulls. “We would try to run and score,” he noted. “If we had the fast break, we would take it. If not, we would try to set up plays.” Cooper, who saw more playing time against Barbados than any other Bull except Domzalski, dished out eleven assists, as well as scoring The Finest Facilities For The Best In Educational Day Care Educational Director and Complete Qualified Staff Featuring swimming all year round In heated pool.

Play was lackluster on our part. We didn’t work for three periods.” The game was important to both clubs, as this was an interdivisional battle, only the second one for Buffalo. It was a chance for the Bulls to improve their record following Wednesday’s 8-4 loss at St. Lawrence, and they did to some extent. The Bulls are now-I—4-1 overall, 1—0—1 with Division II teams. Apparently the only real problem the Bulls had was their physical coordination, because Wright felt that there was generally nothing wrong with the team’s mental attitude, Playoff bound? “They [the skaters] understand the importance of games with Division II teams. We can still make the playoffs. I do expect more of an effort in terms of hard work. Our mental attitude is not off to the point where we’ll stop working hard." The Bulls get their next chance at interdivisional competition when they play at Brockport this Tuesday night. If they do work hard, they should be successful in their attempt for their second victory, The Bulls return home to the Tonawanda Sports Center for a pair of games against Ohio State on December 1 and 2, in what should prove to be two good matches. /t&nu .

Vol. 26, No. 39 State University of New York at Buffalo Friday, 21 November 1975 Social work Program to be phased out by Jenny Cheng Contributing Editor The Undergraduate School of Social Work h<*re has lost its “approved” status by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) and is scheduled to be terminated by June 1977. The social work program was an approved program until June 1975, when CSWE annulled that at all American universities. The CSWE expected social work schools with approved status to eventually seek accredidation status. However, this University is not seeking accredidation for the status program here. “This is largely due to the fact that Albany, for terminate our financial reasons, has decided undergraduate program,” explained Gerald Miller, 1 Undergraduate Coordinator of the School of Social Work. “Because the State University at Buffalo undergraduate program is to be eliminated, the administration questions whether it is wise to pursue accredidation,” he added. Protests Students of the undergraduate program protested this decision vehemently. “We were accepted into this program with the understanding that the program was approved and pending accredidation. Now. we are told that the program is neither approved nor seeking accredidation,” one student said bitterly. The students believe the lack of an approved or accredited status will endanger their chances of entering and receiving advanced standing at graduate schools. Social work majors have reported that the graduate overwhelming majority of accredited schools grant advanced standing on the basis of the undergraduate program. “In this way, we feel that accredidation will serve our best interest,” another student contended. Before a school of social work can be considered for accredidation, its facul y and curriculum must The meet standards established by the CSWE. current State University at Buffalo undergraduate program fulfills these standards completely,” some students insist. “Anyone who has seen a copy of the CSWE official guidelines, can see that our courses are identical to those prescribed by the CSWE,” one social work major said. High quality Undergraduate Coordinator Gerald Miller agrees that the educational curriculum and faculty of this University’s School of Social Work are both of high quality. “I see no reason why the program should not be accredited, if the administration decides to pursue accredidation,” Miller stated. “The question is, whether it is wise to go through with such a costly process when the accredited status may not be necessary,” he added. v Miller said he felt students from this program still be accepted into graduate schools regardless of the accredidation status. “There are students who graduated from our old program who would have received advanced standing at graduate schools,” he said. Arthur Butler, Provost of the Social Sciences, feels that undergraduate students have many “legitimate” requests when they express their feelings on the importance of accredidation. “Personally, I would like to see the program accredited, and I feel that the quality of the program has markedly improved throughout the years of its existence,” Butler commented. Alternate methods Butler added that if the School of Social Work decided not to go through with the accredidation process, an alternate method of endorsement should be devised, which would serve the same purpose. A letter of recommendation, for example, describing the undergraduate curriculum in detail could accompany a student’s application to graduate school or social work agencies. Butler also mentioned that an explanation of the school’s unique situation concerning the termination of the program should be included. The Provost said he regretted the fact that the undergraduate school had to be phased out. “Social work is a service we would like to continue at the undergraduate level, but due to the severe budget problems, it is impossible to keep." Butler went on to explain that Albany decide to phase the program out because there are several other accredited undergraduate social work programs in Western New York Buffalo State College and D’Youville. for - example. Firm belief Sherman Merle, Dean of the School of Social Work, was not available to comment, but social work students claim he fell the program would not be accredited after it was reviewed. A lack of full time faculty, and “haphazard field placements” are cited as departmental shortcomings. Undergraduate social work students firmly believe the program meets CSWE standards for accredidation, and that accredidation is essential to future careers and educational opportunities. by Howard Greenblatt Campus Editor The Norton Hall Browsing Library and its Music Room has been forced to reduce weekly operating hours by one third in order to decrease salary expenditures. A SUNY-wide budget freeze imposed by the Board of Trustees earlier this yea] necessitated the change, said Jim Gruber, Director of Norton Hall. Gruber informed the Browsing Library last week that salary lines would have to be cut this year by about $ 1000 as part of a general Temporary services cutback of $16,500 for this campus. Salaries for the eight student employees of the Browsing Library and Music Room would have amounted to about! f 1,000, explained Rosemary Gellman, Area Coordinator of the Browsing Library. So far, the library has paid out about $7900 of that sum. Gruber expressed disappointment that the Browsing Library had to shorten its hours, saying, “it’s a high priority that meets definite student needs, but again, it can’t be immune to the times.” Shorter hours Gruber could not predict what would happen to the Browsing Library next year, but he did not discount the possibility of further reductions in its operating hours, especially if more cuts are announced. In order to save the $ 1000, the Browsing Library and Music Room cut weekly hours from 60 to 40, Gellman said. The library used to be open from 9 a.m.-9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. on Friday, and from 2 p.m.—6 p.m. on Sundays. As of this week, it will only be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays. All weekend hours were cut. A survey conducted last week by the Browsing Library indicates that student response to this service is considerable, Gellman said. Because the Browsing Library and Music Room will not be open evenings, Millard Fillmore College (MFC) students will not be able to use these facilities. Some MFC students have already complained about the cutback, she said. Gruber maintains, however, that the Browsing Library’s reduced hours are “still meeting the bulk of student needs.” —continued SCATE receives mixed reviews by Michael C. Cray Spectrum Staff Writer Course and Teacher Evaluations in the Norton Center Lounge'for 25 mixed reviews from students this week. copies were grabbed up Monday, but substantially Tuesday. On Wednesday morning, however, 100 copies were sold within a single hour. Most of the criticism of the booklet concerned departments and courses which were not included, difficulty in interpreting information, and the fact that no summary of the raw scores was included. “I think it’s baloney. It didn’t help me at all and 1 couldn’t find the teacher I was looking for,” said one first-year student who was interviewed in an informal survey. She advised psychology majors not to buy the book because she felt it was a waste of money. The SCATE book is “too computerized. I wish it was more literary, or personal, rather than having so many figures,” she continued. “I gave my copy away, I just didn’t want to bother looking at more figures. I’m seeing enough now just going through the Class Schedule. I think the figures are really distracting,” she added. The Student (SCATE), on sale cents a copy, won Nine hundred sales dropped off Found helpful Another student, however, said he found the book very helpful. “I think it’s well worth the money. It’s a great idea and 1 think they did a good job He added that it would have been helpful if the number of students enrolled in the course and more student response was included. A senior majoring in biology found the book a little hard to read and thought better instructions should have been included. He also complained that none of the courses he was taking were evaluated. “I feel like 1 wasted 25 cents. It would be worth it if they had all the courses in it. I think it’s a good evaluation, 1 thought the questions were good, but 1 wish more departments had been included,” he added. A junior thought it was “definitely worth the money,” and planned to use it in preparing his schedule. “The only thing I’m disappointed with is all the zero’s, other than that I’m happy. 1 think the comments are especially useful.” He also thought it would be good to indude the number of students taking the course.

In order to prevent any future cuts, Maiore swore that the City Hall unions will play a major role in the next city-wide elections in 1977, and suggested the possibility of the unions running their own candidate for mayor.

Attacking what he sees as an attempt to make the “little people” pay for the city’s financial crisis, Maiore called for the dismissal ol high-salaried, appointed administrators, rather than the firing of civil service people. He said the city was out to get the “faceless City Hall employees." who could then be replaced by federally-paid Comprehensive Training and Employment Act (CETA) workers. City officials are currently considering plans to lay off as many as 200 employees who work on capital spending, since many activities in that area have been curtailed. The union has offered to forego any raise in the first year of the contract currently being negotiated, in return for a job security clause. However, James W. Burns, Commissioner of Administration and Finance, feels that such a clause would be “ridiculous” in view of the city’s uncertain financial straits. & Please come to the S.A. office to fill out these forms as soon as possible. ; Proposed bill might start over-all strike Cy 3urcvhvtrtJuA*, THE HOMESEAD 6Atcey uj d%ryy*t / , 4 t*<M H*vik n/4* UB> /tfto*- Urfu �WSC: another review just a ‘fronting action’ by Mike McGuire Contributing Editor Since 1973, College (WSC) Women’s Studies has undergone three major reviews by University and has been committees, included in two reviews of the American Studies Department which cross-lists a number WSC courses. The College is again due for a review by the Colleges Chartering Committee at the end of the Spring 1976 semester under the terms of a conditional charter approved by President Robert Ketter last January. The old Stern Prospectus on the collegiate system called for a review of the Colleges by a committee of the Faculty Senate chaired by Jonathan Reichert of In the Physics Department. addition, it mandated an external from review using professors outside the University. Outstanding program The internal review produced a report highly favorable to WSC. A subcommittee made up of three faculty members here called their program “outstanding,” and “a high level of academic standard and intellectual challenge in spite of the difficulties endemic to a WSC operation.” low-budget operated on approximately the same budget then as this year. The external review brought in from other professors five institutions and issued a report on the Colleges as a whole. The Collegiate system, they found, deserved to be maintained and despite a few strengthened, shortcomings. Their report often mentioned a trend in the Colleges as a whole and then cited particular Colleges as indicative of that trend. Each time Women’s Studies was mentioned, the trend it illustrated was found to be positive. According the of WSC the to WSC evaluators expressed a desire to become involved with the program, and the other later advocated the establishment of such a program at his own University. to one assigned spokesperson, One of a handful At the same time Faculty Senate accepted the reports of the two evaluating teams and passed the Reichert Prospectus in Spring of two different reviews of the American Studies Department touched indirectly on WSC. cross-lists American Studies several WSC courses, and several faculty members from the Department also teach in WSC. The of the Graduate report Division praised WSC highly, calling it one of a handful of outstanding programs in the field the country. The Division of in Undergraduate Education’s (DUE) of Studies, American review completed the same semester, also praised WSC’s program and urged its continuation. Chartering Colleges The Committee examined WSC in Fall 1974, and eventually proposed a five-year conditional charter, after finding the program to be academically Questions of men from certain courses and about the allegedly ambiguous use of the word “woman” in the WSC charter. Ketter’s decision reduced the length of the charter to three years and mandated a review after eighteen months. He also told WSC to specify when “woman” was used generically and when it was used specifically in the charter, and also to submit any all women’s to courses Curriculum by Paul Buttino Spectrum Staff Writer DUE Committee for approval. Ultamatum During 1975, the Spring Curriculum Committee unanimously approved four of the courses, and voted 4-2 in favor of the Women’s Auto Mechanics Course. During summer, this past Executive Vice President Albert Somit told the College to drop any all women’s courses from its course listings, and threatened WSC with closure if it did not comply. Since then, the threat of the closing has passed, but whether the all question of women’s classes may be offered next semester is still undecided. Kelter has not made any definite statement on the matter, although he is scheduled to meet with representatives of the College to discuss the issue. The Faculty Senate two weeks a resolution approved ago permitting the use of exclusion in certain classes, providing the exclusion is based on sound educational reasons and is not “invidious.” A WSC spokeswoman called the continual reviews a “fronting action,” so the administration can avoid responsibility for harassing the Colleges She compared the to presidential reviews which can be commissions, ignored if the President doesn’t like their findings. “After they submitted to chartering, the Colleges were supposed to gel more money and be free of harassment because they would have been found valid.” she said. “We still have little and plenty of money harassment. Another review will just bring us more harassment without any more respectability and certainly no more money." • THE NICKELODEON • • ANTIQUE THEATRE • 9 Cameo Javits spoke briefly, explaining he was on his way to a special meeting with President Ford and other New York Stale delegates concerning the President’s policy for aid to NYC. A revised outlook by the President on the federal aid issue was expected to be revealed at the meeting. “Two of the greatest things New York ever did were to free tuition and open admissions,” Javits said. One reason the city is hurting, he told the crowd, is because of the “many humane and 1 wonderful things New York has done in many fields.” Javits said students and education are the last thing that anyone would want to give up, because “you represent our future." In closing, Javits reminded the ralliers, "My heart Is with you, you all know that, I’ve said it on a thousand battlefields.” Other speakers included Congressman Augustus California, from Los Angeles, Hawkins Congresswoman Shirley Chilsom of New York and Congresswoman Bella Abzug, also from New York. Lunch at Ford’s Senator Hubert Humphrey was also scheduled to appear, but was delayed at the White House meeting with Ford. Each speaker gave similar interest.” Robert Kirkpatrick, President of the Student Association of the State University of New York (SASU), told the crowd, a few weeks back, Ford came out with a bankruptsy plan for New York State, timed just before elections to tell the rest of the country they should “let New York die,” and “we don’t care, it’s not going to affect us.” Country road, W. Va. Kirkpatrick pointed to several communities already being affected by the sinking municiple bond market. “New York is the reason they can’t build roads in West Virginia right now,” Kirkpatrick said, and “New York is the reason that they can’t build schools in Illinois and Colorado right now.” Banks are leary of lending cities money for community projects, thus following the same pattern set by NYC bankers. Chilsom was applauded loudly for, as one SASU representative put it, “feeling it’s just as important to be with us as to be with President Ford.” Chisolm said what really appalled her and other members of Congress was that Mayor Beame and Governor Carey came to Washington a few days ago and were told what action had to be taken by them to get any federal assurance for loans or aid to NYC. The “action” apparently was a state sales tax increase, a wage freeze, and pension fund contributions which Carey proposed early this week. Chilsom said much of the proposed tax increases or budget cuts “are not to the benefit of the masses of the citizens of New York. Javits assured the students their lobbying will make an effect on some members of Congress. Of the 1300 people who turned out to represent the SUNY system, not more than 15 people from this University went to Washington and only one faculty member from the entire SUNY system attended the rally.

Tuesday to rally in support of financial aid to New York City and make legislators aware of the devastating effects default would have on education in New York State. Lobbyists knocked on the doors of virtually every member of Congress in an effort to gain support for the financially troubled city. The SUNY student lobbying effort will have a definite effect on financial aid legislation in Congress, Senator Jacob Javits (D., N Y.) said at the rally. Unfortunately, many of the other legislators were in session ironing out last minute proposals before the upcoming congressional recess and could not be reached by the lobbyists. The rally converged on the Capitol steps amidst chants of, “Default is your fault,” with an accusing finger pointed in the direction of the Capitol building, and, “We want a J-O-B so we can E-A-T.” pro-student New York City speeches with a few piercing jabs at the Ford administration which won loud verbal approval among the ralliers. “This country is being badly mismanaged and unless you understand the significance of this, what you are doing today will be wasted,” Hawkins said.

Sub Board this year allocated about $4000 to the Browsing Library to cover materials and maintenance expenses. A spokesperson from Sub Board said the Board discussed the possibility of contributing to the Library’s salary expenditures to compensate for the state cutbacks, but decided to “wait, and determine the long-range ramifications of the budget freeze.” Sub Board views some of the budget cuts in student services as an attempt by the state to shift the financial burden to the students. The Board is therefore “sceptical of the precedent that would be set” by picking up the tab for Browsing Library salaries, the spokesman said. Student Association (SA) President Michele Smith shares Sub Board’s wariness. More problems The reduction in operating hours will cause other problems for the Browsing Library, Gellman said. To expand its service base, the Library had planned to hold periodic film festivals, art exhibitions and other activities, many of which could only be held at night, she explained. Currently the Browsing Library and Music Room have over 4000 paper-bound books, 155 magazine subscriptions, seven national and local newspapers, and 3500 record albums, Gellman said. While the budget freeze will not directly affect the supply of materials, the overall quality of service is bound to suffer. - Page four . The Spectrum .

The adverse affects of cigarette smoke on the “passive,” or non-smoker were outlined in the 1972 U.S. Surgeon General’s report on smoking.

The Spectrum . Page five �Guest Opinion Edk.°rial 9 a.m. by George Boger 9 p.m. Graduate Student Association The perennial hatchet that has been sweeping around campus, slashing budgets left and right, has hit yet another sector of campus life. The Norton Hall Browsing Library and Music Rooms, forced to decrease salary expenditures by one third, has had to reduce weekly operating hours considerably. The move is another manifestation of a trend that seems to be afflicting the University with increasing save money by cutting back popular student regularity services. The new shortened Browsing Library hours, 9 a.m.—5 p.m. on weekdays and no hours at all on weekends, will affect Millard Fillmore College (night school) students the hardest. As it is, these people see so little return on their mandatory student fee dollars that eliminating one widely-used service is just not fair. The evening is also a time when most students can find a spare hour or two to relax after the trials of a normally hectic day. The student union will no longer afford them a place to go to read a magazine or newspaper or listen to music. Finally, employees of the Browsing Library, who counted on their salaries as a source of income, will feel the pinch if they are compelled to work fewer hours. With the financial crisis in Albany these days, it is highly improbable that money will be restored to State Temporary Services lines. Students therefore have no alternative but to look to Sub Board, their student service organization, to help bail out the Browsing Library. Sub Board, which reportedly has a sizeable amount of money put away for contingencies, currently allocates money to cover materials and maintenance expenses. A financial boost from Sub Board would enable the Browsing Library and Music Room to pay its employees so that at least the nighttime hours may be reinstated, allowing the facility to serve the needs of all students at this University. Night school students especially deserve this consideration as they contribute a large sum of money to Sub Board each year for services they cannot always take advantage of. The Browsing Library and Music Room are services that were geared specifically for students. But they will do no one any good if they are shut up behind locked doors at hours when students appreciate them the most. — SCATE The Student Association (SA) Student Course and Teacher Evaluation (SCATE) booklet which was placed on sale this week deserves both the praise and criticism offered by students who will use it to plan their spring semester schedules. It goes without saying that the tireless efforts of Project Coordinator Gene loli and SA Director of Academic Affairs Dave Shapiro deserve much credit. Plagued throughout by a lack of volunteers, it is doubtful there would have even been a SCATE book without them. The book is helpful in fairly obvious ways; it gives students a chance to estimate how well taught a class will be. In an institution where promotions and tenure depend mostly on faculty publications, the SCATE book is a a welcome re-emphasis on the often neglected skills of classroom instruction. It may be remembered that the current SA Executive Committee's campaign platform last spring was based on promises of publishing a SCATE book. This they have done. But perhaps the most refreshing aspect of SCATE is the willingness of loli and Shapiro to face up to its failures in preparation for a better book next year. A truly comprehensive SCATE booklet is much more useful than one which omits several large departments. Those departments which left packages of SCATE questionnaires on their office floors are doing a tremendous disservice to students, and leads us to believe that departmental cooperation should be compelled in some way. Another problem students encountered was interpreting the number of responses without knowing how many students were in each class, and without the aid of any other summarized information. Unsummarized listings force the reader to mentally estimate the percentage of favorable or unfavorable responses. We suggest that next year, sufficient funds be allocated to the SCATE project to justify summary of raw scores. All in all, the SCATE book is a necessary first step in a positive direction. Page six . The Spectrum . Friday, 21, November 1975 It is now obvious to most everyone that the economic crisis is taking its toll on SUNY. Public higher education in New York State is under attack. But everywhere the response to the crisis there has been has been to “bite the bullet” only scattered resistance to the attack. It seems that no one can find a way out of the present crisis. The only suggestions that have come from the leading bodies in the state are deepening the crisis of public higher education and exacerbating the general economic crisis. They say raise taxes, raise tuition, put a ceiling on enrollment, cutback needed programs, layoff faculty and staff. We say that these, moves will not help the problem, but are the problems themselves. The New York State governing bodies have not addressed the real needs of the people in this State. The Student Association of the State University (SASU) is the statewide student association of SUNY. For the past year it has taken a tailing position on the crisis, originally calling Carey’s cutback budget for SUNY “fair.” Now the SASU leadership wants to buy “mini-bonds” for Big MAC. A group of students from various campuses across the state have worked diligently to transform the passive stance of SASU so that it actively fights for the real needs of SUNY students and the people of New York State. The name of the group is Students to Defend SUNY. In October, at the last Delegate Assembly meeting of SASU in Albany, the Students to Defend SUNY presented its program to the SASU delegates, who represented most of the colleges and universities in SUNY. They adopted the program by an overwhelming vote. This was a significant breakthrough, but this advance needs to be consolidated by actively implementing the program. The leadership of SASU must be responsive to our needs. The program adopted by the delegates was the following: Fight for free mil ion and open admissions. These two demands are inseparable. They are urgent. We cannot ask for anything less than quality education open to everyone. Talk of the erosion of quality because of free tuition and open admissions is reactionary. Given the present economic crisis and overall stratification in our society, this is the only way to ensure democratic access to SUNY. Compensatory funding measures must be assured to cover the costs. 2. Take a dear leadership position in the Jighl to end racism Racism is the most insidious — - / weapon used against all the people in the United and New York is no exception. SASU States must take the lead ideologically in educating SUNY students to the severe consequence of racism on the quality of public higher education, on the quality of social and cultural life, and on the jobs situation. SASU must fight to fill administrative positions, faculty and staff position, and to increase the student enrollment with persons of specially oppressed national peoples. A democratic society is at stake. 3. Take the lead in the struggle for women's rights. Young women must be assured of full equality and opportunity to participate in the functions of modern society. At the same time their special needs must be recognized. SASU must fight for special measures to be taken to guarantee women’s access to SUNY at all levels. as students, as workers, as administrators. 4. Fight for full employment and equal opportunity. We want jobs for everyone at union wages now. That means for students part-time work on and off campus, summer work, and jobs after graduation. 5. Fight the cutbacks, demand more funding, and develop the curriculum to service the needs of the public. 6. Struggle for the full Constitutional rights of students. Continue to press for full student participation in University governance at all levels. Students must continually struggle for their legal rights. As the economic crisis takes on a political character, there will be more student SASU must the protect involvement. Constitutional and legal rights of youth as they express their needs to the public and to the legislature. 7. Maintain SUNY as an international and cultural center. We must maintain SUNY as an international center for the pursuit of world peace. In support of the policy of detente, SASU should press SUNY to develop student and faculty exchange programs with countries of different social systems. There is a world-wide student movement that is doing much to advance world peace SASU must become a part, 9/ this.; - - - movement. We must continue to resist the deterioration of quality public higher education. In fact we must struggle to restore the cutbacks and demand that SUNY be further developed for the benefit of the public. The fighlback is beginning to come together but there is much yet to be done. The consequences of neglecting to resist the erosion of quality education in SUNY are vast and undermine the principle of an educated public in a democratic society. New name alley To the Editor. The repair project to improve the heating in Norton Union’s first floor has started. Our publicwill be inconvenienced at times because doorways must be closed.

Of course, we hope the closings will be brief, the good weather will continue, and the heater installation will be a great improvement! Robert W. Henderson Associate Director Norton Hall default To the Editor I would like to comment on the concern of many State University at Buffalo students over the financial affairs of N.Y.C. I would like them to consider the following points: 1. New York City’s budget has tripled in the last 10 years, and its leaders have refused to limit their spendings. We are in a recession today and N.Y.C. has continued in it’s wasteful ways. If you have ever been to N.Y.C. just look at the construction going on: buildings are torn down (not restored), roads are torn up (not repaved), new shopping plazas are built; the city is one big, unlimited construction site. 2. If the federal government gives them assistance, what will it accomplish? It will just allow them to continue their wasteful ways until once again more aid will be needed to avert a default. It will continue to be one big cycle, going round and round until something mjuor is done. 3. Last year the Buffalo School Systems were in total collapse, yet the lederal danger of a government didn’t come to their aid with millions of dollars. What they had to do was limit themselves and cut back on some vital areas. Also I would like to note, that this situation did not concern many University students, probably because they don't live in Buffalo, so they didn’t give a damn. Yet now that N.Y.C. is in trouble, Buffalo is supposed to give a damn and rush to its aid. 4. Newsweek magazine lists Buffalo as one ol the ten cities to watch in the next year, because it could very well follow the footsteps of N.Y.C. Will University students be demanding the federal government come to the aid of Buffalo as they are demanding the aid to N.Y.C.? 5. If the federal government aids N.Y.C. it must assume this responsibility and must aid thousands ol other cities in financial trouble (like Buffalo) throughout the country. 6. Finally, I would like to know why I must pay taxes to support N.Y.C. when my home-town (Buffalo) is in just as bad shape. Let those who use' N.Y.C. support it. Start taxing the millions who work there and commute daily in and out of the city yet pay no taxes to support it. If N.Y.C. must continue in its wasteful, unlimited spendings, and those who use its resources do not wish to support it / say let it default! For all of the state will benefit, by the removal of its biggest burden.

She thanked all those people who were involved in the production of the play and informed the audience that as Panic Theater improved the calibre of its plays, more money was needed for the production of each one. As a result, Garfield continued. Panic Theater is experiencing a money crunch and there is a possibility that there may not be any play next semester.

Courtyard Theater 'Approaching Simone' has a heroic model for women Mathematician Andre Weil speaks of his sister, Simone Weil: "[Just as] I happen to be a mathematician, her vocation or role or business in life was to be a saint; she quite honestly trained herself for that." The life of Simone Weil is the subject of Megan Terry's Obie Award-winning play Approaching Simone, which the Center for Theatre Research and the State University at Buffalo Theatre Department will be presenting at the Courtyard Theatre, under . . . but she feels it her duty and her mission to pass them on to the outside world and to future generations." (She did so in such works as Waiting For God and Intimations of Christianity.) Born a French Jew in 1909, she devoted herself for much of her life to a direct quest for God. In spite of this, her sensitivity to the secular world to the practical application of what she always remained strong. She worked for believed years at manual jobs so she could know a laborer's life firsthand, enlisted with the Spanish Loyalists (though refusing to use a gun), and asked to be parachuted into occupied France to fight with the came to do that — — This year's play takes place in ancient Rome and revolves around Pseudolus the personal slave of Hero, who desires to be free. Hero agrees to free Pseudolus if the slave can get him the girl he loves. Her name is Philia and she is a courtesan of the House of Marcus Lycus, Despite her association with this "house" she is a virgin, but she has been sold to a brutal Roman captain. The entire play revolves around Pseudolus' efforts to bring Hero and Philia together. He relies on his cunning and wits to outmaneuver the captain and his men, Hero's parents (Senex and Domina), the head slave of the house (Hysterium) and Marcus Lycus, Teamwork His antics succeed through his own efforts and assistance of Hysterium and Erronius, the owner of the neighboring house. He has been searching for 20 years for his two children, who were stolen in infancy by pirates Pseudolus' ploys includes using sleeping potions and aphrodisiacs, posing as Marcus Lycus, using his master's house to entertain the captain and his men, hiding Philia, and making Hysterium pose as Philia to fake the woman's death. Despite Pseudolus' best efforts, however, the tide of events seems to be slowly turning against him. He's just trying to juggle too many people and stories at once. Erronius, though, finally saves tha day, but not before the most uproarious slapstick chase that I have ever seen tried on stage is pulled oft (and beautifully, at that). The production succeeded by means of an ingenious combination of acting, improvising on the play, directing and just plain old comic timing. Resistance. Such courage was necessary for her to have at all. At 15, convinced of her intellectual inferiority and of her inability to find truth, she almost committed suicide. But she saved herself by reasoning that anyone, howiever lowly, can reach and know the truth, the result was a surpassing faith in her views, and in herself as a woman and a person. In 1943, she died a death that chillingly blended her concern with both the existence and the soul of humanity. Exiled by the War and hospitalized by tuberculosis, she refused to eat more than the official ration allowed in her occupied country, and starved a martyr of body, soul and ideals. Big and brassy Woman as hero necessary talent was not present, determination and the drive that comes only from hard, dedicated work made up the difference.

Simone Weil's "sainthood" had little to do with the callous, calcified denial of self that serves as the popular image of holiness. The only real overlap with that image, in fact, was in the almost frightening dedication she showed in her beliefs and ideas. Place, Calm Down Mother, and ten other plays. Aside from the fascination and admiration she feels for Simone, she sought also to present her as a heroic model for women everywhere. I want to come out and be as strong as I can for other women," Terry says about her play. "They need models; they need to know that a woman can make it and think clearly in a womanly way. There are Qn |y ma e models; half of the world is not represented, and it's far too narrow. All the heroes are dead or killed or compromised, and women need heroes.

The Spectrum Friday, 21 November 1975 . The music was well presented by the orchestra. The only problem here was the overabundance of brass as compared to strings. The few violins were almost impossible to hear over the blare of the trumpets and trombones. As a result of this imbalance, it was often hard to hear the actors. The loud, heavy brass sound was the only fault in the orchestra's performance. The actors themselves were fairly good. Pseudolus (played by Dan Tursi) is a marvelous part for any actor (Zero Mostel was excellent in this role) and Dan really performed well. His timing on comic lines and his general performance was well worth the 25 cents admission charge I don't mean to slight the other actors however.

They did only their own songs and the emphasis was upon their musical accomplishments of the previous years. Last Saturday at the Niagara Falls Convention Center the spotlight shifted. There were performances by many of the individuals who had affected or had been affected by Dylan's long, meandering process of musical growth. Dylan still tended to hold center stage, his very presence forcing the other musicians to defer to him. For a majority of the concert, however, Dylan was not even on stage, while the others maintained, on their own, the musical spirit which Dylan keynoted. immediately touched when Bob This spirit was Neuwirth came on stage with Guam, the backup band fo; the Revue, and said, "Welcome to our living room." This Informality pervaded the show as musician after musician woke up for the strange afternoon starting time to come out and play a few songs. Spider Ronson Guam eased the crowd into the stream of things with some quick, light country numbers. Aside from Neuwirth the group contained T-Bone Walker on rhythm guitar, an excellent pedal-steel/dobro/fiddle player whose name escapes me and Mick Ronson on lead guitar who climaxed this early set with a song that showcased his guitar virtuosity Beginning the overwhelming series of walk-ons with Ronee Blakely, discovered through her appearance in the film Nashville. She has a powerful, wide ranging voice which she accompanied on piano to sing a ballad off of her recently released album. Out came Joni Mitchell to do a duet on the next Blakely song and then to do two songs of her own, alone on the stage with just an acoustic guitar. My Joni Mitchell fan friends tell me the songs were new, but they followed in the rhythmic and melodic modes of her previous work. Time factors pushed her off at this point, the standing ovation crowd grumbling as to why Joni couldn't do just one or two more songs. Mr. D. delivers But it was time for Ramblin' Jack Elliot to do his three songs. Elliot does some good guitar strumming and even better yodeling vocals. Clearly, his presence and style have influenced Dylan's own all-encompassing musical approach. Then, Dylan finally ambled on and he quickly proved that all those old songs are still part of him. In a recent interview, he stated, "I can relate, on some level, with every song I wrote." "When I Paint My Masterpiece" and "It Ain't Me Babe" were both done differently than the originals but still exquisitely. The beat, the phrasing fit so perfectly that this version could just as easily have been the first. Out came his harmonica, delivering the searing. drawn out, not quite on key chords, melodies. He also performed a number of new songs which promise to make his newly recorded album just as much a classic as the others Dylan, hunched over the mike with his acoustic, or jumping from musician to musician with his electric, revived songs that covered every period: 'The Times They are a Changin'," "Just Like a Woman," "I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine," "Simple Twist of Fate." Joan Baez came out for about seven songs after the intermission including a lovely a capella of "Swing Low Sweet Chariot" and Roger McGuinn for "Chestnut Mare" and 'The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" which drew a Baez-induced 6,000 part harmony. Dylan as heavyweight During such a mind boggling afternoon, it's very hard to pinpoint the climax. "Like a Rolling Stone" and "This Land is Your Land," the final two numbers, wore definitely contenders. For myself, however, it was the powerful singing of Dylan's new single "Hurricane." After nearly 15 years of writing, this song proves that Dylan is still number one. In it, he uses the jailing of Rubin Carter as the story line for a moving, cutting song which displays an enormous level of vitality and inventiveness. It's a song which helps you remember that even though Bruce Springsteen may be called "another Dylan," Dylan was and is the best, and he can still be just as sarcastic, enigmatic and rocking as ever.

On your right, witness a white aristocracy, decadent and effete, having lost the ability to perform for themselves the necessary functions of living. And, on your right, their black labor force; seemingly downtrodden and mired in menial tasks, but in reality the force that allows society to function at all. So goes the common theme of Douglas Turner Ward's one-act plays Happy Ending and Day of Absence, presented last weekend by the State University at Buffalo Theatre Department under the direction of Lorna Hill. If that theme seems too grim for you, be assured tftat its presentation is as light and frothy as an ice cream soda well, almost Ward doesn't have the poetic outrage of Imimu Barada, or the relentless, brutal honesty Charles Gordone shows in No Place To Be Somebody (probably the best play about the black experience ever written). He's more like a black George S. Kaufman, producing plays truthful and topical enough for black audiences, yet not swamping the white playgoer in waves of oppressive dogma. His plays are enjoyable, not pontifical and they do have a bit of bite. from — Redistribution of wealth Happy Ending operates on an intimate, almost situation—comedy scale, centering on two black domestics trying to deal with the impending loss of their jobs. What upsets them isn't the jobs per se, but the food, clothing, plane tickets and triple overtime they lift from their fat-cat employers, who are so glutted with same, the missing quantities are never even noticed. Take that away and there's trouble. Day of Absence has a looser structure and covers a broader area. In a series of short scenes, it chronicles the chaos resulting in a Souther town where the entire black population mysteriously vanishes for one day: cars are unchauffeured, floors unwashed, shoes unshined, meals uncooked All of the white citizens are played by blacks in whiteface, most of whom appeared to have the time of their lives parodying the personae of the Dixie gentry Unexplained 'Absence' Both plays suffer from a lack of strong climactic resolution In Ending, the couples whose divorce precipitates the job crisis patches up their differences (offstage) with a conspicuous lack of explanation or the leasoning Similarly, Absence never really tells us what blacks on the fateful day, or offers more than the slightest implication of the lasting impact of the event, or the lack of it. Absence's satire is also labored and unfunny at times. The cast performed capably, if not quite at the Theatre partment's generally high level of competence. Especially fine were ary Joseph, as the slyer and more sorrowful of Happy Ending s mestics, and Fiank Hill, skillfully and energetically playing the latoi Claghorn mayor in Day of Absence. -Bill Maraschiello SHANES Tavern -dL 1147 Main at TURQUOISE RINGS $4” LIQUID SILVER CHOKERS nuggets Jp Reg. $20 NOW with turquoise Reg. $20 NOW $6” Umv. of Buffalo Nights! with Bud on Tap 25c for 12 ozs.

Whether Lester was obliquely aiming for a spoof on TV super-heroes, or on unreal chronicles of past eras, or on futuristic films (characteristically those of McDowell, in which his cohorts reappear as the plot unfolds) is unclear to me. The opening scene focuses on Captain Harry Flashman (McDowell), a distinguished war hero, addressing the graduating class of Rugby in the late nineteenth century. Royal Flash is reminiscent of McDowell's earlier films, but not significantly.

Kinda slipping in between all these heavies is an uncomplicated yet effective group called Montrose. Headed by Ronnie Montrose, former lead guitarist for the Edgar Winter Group (he's the hit, "Frankenstein") these guys are borderline glass cases, if only for the stunning sexuality of Ronnie Montrose's sense of playing lead on blitzkrieg geetarzanity. The first Montrose Ip actually qualifies as the strongest with such hackle-raising songs as "Rock the Nation" and "Rock Candy." "Paper Money," the group’s second effort, teeth out. You'd think by now they'd shot the wad, two hits outta two, not bad. But more is yet to come. "No You Don't" a Chinn/Chap lyric, is so righteously nasty that it's sickening, very SM . and before side one's over they've even thrown in a torrid edition of Joey Dee and the Starliters "Peppermint Twist" which is guaranteed to get 'em dancin' at any and all discos no matter how socially sticky they pretend to be.

The other successful entry is a note-fer-note rendition of the Who's "My Generation," complete with tremelo and incoherent bass runs. In case you're a mite confused, the Sweet did release Desolation Boulevard in the States on Capitol records and what it is, is nothing more than a slipshod compilation of the previously mentioned Ips. My god, how could they have left "Heartbreak Today"??? The only significant differences, between the American Ip and the slash! ng of British releases are that the British records have better, more sonorous, production quality and that the U.S. rlease contains "Ballroom Blitz" which wasn't on either of the other fish 'n chippers.

Page thirteen �'Outer Space Technically mediocre, factually unsubstantiated by Andrew Warnick Spectrum Arts Staff The Outer Space Connection appears to have been shot when the director and cameraman were out to lunch. The technical quality of this so called "documentary" is extremely mediocre, the type one expects to see in an educational film shown at a high school, but never for $2.50 a ticket at a movie theatre. The film had an excessively grainy texture, and for the first seven minutes, there was an annoying scratch that ran vertically on the film. The closeup shots were especially terrible, often giving the audience an intimate view of someone's ear or nose. "Horribly amateurish" would be an accurate description of the photography. Another foul ingredient in this rotten stew was the music score. In attempting to imitate those of 2001 or The Andromeda Strain, its electronic beeps and bongs only gave the audience a universal headache. Surf's up and it's beach blanket bingo time once kids The sand, sea and sun of Southern California makes its way to cold, cold Buffalo via the Beach Boys Relive all those glorious fantasies you never had with your very own favorite California guy girl. Bring your surfboard and sun tan oil to the again The film content was inordinately misleading because of its abundant use of extrinsic information. Controversial and unsubstantiated theory was sprinked with unrelated facts and then presented as unquestionable scientific law. An example is the use of the Kirlian "aura photography" technique to show that there is electrical energy in all living things and then trying to claim that Egyptian mummies have a degree of immortality because the Kirlian photo detects some energy in them. The film finalizes this segment by stating "matter of factly" that it was the "visitors from outer space" who gave this information about "immortality" to the Egyptians. Another example of this fancy footwork occurred when narrator Rod Serling said the "visitors" actually improved mankind through genetic manipulation. But the only evidence used to support the theory are some mysterious sculptures of the Mayans which are supposed to be a blueprint for the various types of men these "visitors" created. The film had interviews with several experts who vaguely stated that UFO's are in the realm of possibility, but nothing as conclusive as the film would lead one to believe. So long, Frank Lloyd Wright Connection mostly reiterates Erich von Daniken's theories that interstellar travelers built or helped create the civilizations of the Mayans, the Incans and the Egyptians. Too many questions, though, remain unanswered. If these "visitors" were more advanced then than we are now, why did they build their cities out of large stones rather superior materials such as steel or glass? The film could be termed a complete rehash with very few original ideas presented. As a documentary, its methods are reminiscent of political propaganda films and poorly done ones at that. As a story, it is rather boring and inconsistent. However sympathetic you may be to von Daniken's thesis. The Outer Space Connection reduces it to a bottom-drawer space opera.

Accompanied by bassist Tony Brown and guitarist Arlen Roth, Andersen presented a beautiful example of how folk music can maintain its place in shows, today's rocky world —Ickes Temptations Tmperors ofsoul' riding on a crest Opening with “Outside On Your Door,” Eric played rhythm, with Roth playing solos that drew deafening ovations. He had the crowd clapping and singing to “Mama Tried," a song popularized by the Grateful Dead on their live album. The classic "Thirsty Boots" was a great crowd pleaser, with the audience joining in on the chorus. Switching to piano, Andersen quieted down a bit with the title cuts from his two latest albums, Blue River and Be True To You. "Wind and Sand," also from the Blue River album, was dedicated to . Sari, my five-year-old daughter . . . She's a little dancer." Andersen's voice radiated sensitivity, as did his lyrics, which come from sources like his family and other close relations by Steven Brieff Spectrum Music Staff Deep touch Embarking on a national tour coinciding with the release of their new album House Party, the Temptations proved Friday night at the Aud that their billing as "emperors of soul" was more than justified. They sparkled the crowd with their unique choreography and energetic dance movements and provided an excellent demonstration in to the guitar for "California Really "Is It Love At All," the song Blues" and Erie returned which receives the most air play out of all his numbers. He left the stage with a bow to a standing ovation, which threatened not to abate until he returned for an encore. Acting appropriately, Andersen returned for "The Guitar Man," a story of a family of musicians with a deaf mother and blind guitar-playing father. He went solo for a number he announced as "A Poem." He closed his set with Tom Waits' "01' 55," which is fast becoming a classic. Roth, who was recruited from John Prine three months ago, and Brown, who has been Eric s long-time road bass player, are a perfect back up for the quiet, deep touch that is a trademark of Andersen's music. On the folk scene for about ten years, Andersen has obviously survived the so-called "test of time." With another album to be released in February, and isolated dates through the winter, he promises to keep our desire for the mellow satiated for a long time to come. Headlining was Leo Koltke, an amazing guitarist who is developing a rather large cult following. An excellent bottle-necker, Kottke played his usual set of alternated vocals and instrumentals. In spite of his great talent, I can't seem to keep my mind from wandering during his performance. He lacks the spark to keep an audience's attention during his set. Some people should only be recording artists. —Barbara Komansky the art of group singing Opening with "Glasshouse" from the Song For You album, the Temps had the crowd moving from, the onset Then into the classic "Masterpiece," and it was apparent that the Temps were in top form 'The vocals were unusually powerful with each member showing off his ample vocal abilities. The Temps concentrated heavily on material from their platinum album, Song For You, released earlier this year. They, enlightened the crowd with superior versions of "Memories," "Firefly," "Shakey Ground" and of course the title cut "A Song For You." sound One of the concert's highlights came during "A Song For You” when Dennis Edwards reached an incredibly high note completely startling the crowd as well as his fellow Temptations who openly applauded his efforts after the number. Material from the just released album House Party was kept to a minimum with only a couple of tunes from the new disc covered. The most appreciated segment came when a long medley of their hits, dating from 1964 through 1974, was showcased. Encompassing such Motown unforgettables as "My Girl,” "Ain't Too Proud to Beg,” Cloud Nine,” "Ball of Confusion, and ''Papa Was A Rollin' Stone," the medley delighted fans who may have had misgivings or doubts as to how the current group, with only two original members, would fare on these oldies. They sang with the same intensity and enthusiasm they did ten years ago, never giving the audience any impression they were tired of their material or were "going through the motions." Tempting ' Throughout all their personnel changes, they've always managed to "sound” in tact.

The audience was very into the Temptations and the group seemed to sense it by responding with extended versions of many songs and putting out tons of energy with their precision-perfect, intricate choreography. After playing for almost an hour and a half the group launched into the up tempo dance number “Happy People." They brought the crowd "off the ground" and kept them in a euphoric state for almost ten minutes with "Happy People," and upon finishing the number quickly exited the stage. Called back for an encore, they did a continuation of "Happy People." For all those who showed up Friday night, the Temptations more than lived up to their reputation. They enhanced it. After more than a dozen active years of performing and recording, the Temptations remain on top. In fact, judging by Friday's performance and this year's platinum album, the Temptations of 1975 are better than they've been in their long, illustrious career.

Raices, a group of seven, prove their versatility on their latest release of the same name. The roads that Carlos Santana, Herbie Hancock and Miles Davis opened to aspiring young jazz and soul artists have been admirably explored by this group. Opening side one is "Lenguas," whose English translation is languages or tongues. Reminiscent of Hancock's "Watermelon Man," the voice is used in monosyllables as a whistling type of instrument. Percussion, featuring such little-used instruments as clay drums, berimbau, kalimba and quika carries each piece Keyboardman along and is an Amaury Lopez accent. exquisite uses his Fender Bill Withers, Making Music (Columbia Records) that prevented him from recording. Now on considered a major talent and influence just a few years ago, is regretfully, washed up. Nothing here comes near the standards of his two hits, "Lean On Me" and "Ain't No Sunshine." The urgency and despair so forceful in his early vocals are gone. The new voice is bland, monotoned and emotionless, comparable to a male Helen fleddy. At times Withers sounds like a horse in heat. He should either stop "singing" or take some voice lessons. It's sad how Bill Withers has regressed to the Rory Gallagher, Against the Opening side one is "Let Me In," with a hummable opening riff along the lines of Joe Walsh's "Welcome to the Club,'' or Clapton's "Motherless Children." Gallagher's fluid guitar takes the band up and down, using crescendo and sudden stops as endings to frenzied jams that are an earmark of his work, "Ain't Too Good" tones the breakneck pace down a bit, and is reminiscent of Bad Company's mellower tunes, such as "Ready For Love." Marin plays a very tasty opening piano, with the other Mungo Jerry The Pye History of Britsh Music (Pye) Greatest hits collections are usually pointless. Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young was a good example of this; They released only two and a half albums of original material and practically every song was widely known. Simon and Garfunkel was another every album they released was a greatest example hits collection in itself. Pye Records, an England-based label, has added to this epidemic with their History of British Pop Music. They devote albums to 60's British music, featuring artists such as Petula Clark and the Kinks. One group covered is Mungo Jerry, well-known for their single "In the Summertime" and not much else. What can you say about the kind of group that has a hit single and disappears? Almost nothing, as album sales would indicate. Half the time this band sounds like a low-call - Montara (Blue Note) Montara, the new album by Bobby Hutcherson, is quite simply put, one of intense beauty and mellowness. With its synthesis of various instruments, only slightly dominated by Hutcherson's interweaving xylophonic-progressions, each cut comes across as a mini-jazz masterpiece. On "La Malanga," which is the most blatantly Latin song on the album (though every song is Latin influenced), the combination of Latin percussion, flute and trumpet, layered over with the xylophone is more than enough to get the feet moving, the hands clapping and the brain thinking. Latin music, in itself, is one of profound feeling induced by the "La Malanga" combination of many instruments typifies an excellent example of what good Latin music is all about. The same can be said about "Vuyo." Here Hutcherson on xylophone and Ernie Watts on flute — Prodigal Sun the thought of him venturing into a studio again seems pathetic at worst, comical at best. The other aspects of this album are on par with the vocals. The melodies are about as diverse as the James Brown catalog, with each tune making use of practically the same musical progression. The songs differ about as much as Johnny Carson's monologues. Even the lyrics suffer. They're much too mundane and elementary, totally void of any qualitative substance. Withers' mother could have written better lyrics. How anyone with any amount of musical expertise can let an album like Making Music go through a pressing without realizing the usurpation of precious vinyl remains unaccountable If Withers considers this record a suitable replication of "making music," I wish to disagree violently with -Steven Brieff him, musicians taking their cues at the most advantageous Grain (Chrysalis) Rory Gallagher, a prominent British blues guitarist, has produced an album that is one of the few good rocking albums this reviewer has seen this semester. Ably assisted by Rod D'Ath, Lou Martin, and Gerry McAvoy on percussion, keyboards and bass, respectively, Gallagher has put together a set of songs that show one can employ catchy rhythms and licks that aren't, affected by the current disco blight. Bobby Hutcherson, for the wind instruments that carry the leads. There are only vocals on two cuts: "Parallax" and "After Sunrise." Sammy Figueroa's deep, rich voice is a perfect instrument in itself. The vocals augment the intensity of the instrumentals which blend and weave through each other. This type of Latin-jazz is rather far removed from Santana, Chick Corea or John McLaughlin and his cohorts. It's pure, and not really too distant from the type of framework that say, Tito Puente makes his music in. The musicians are very well versed in their own and each other's instruments. They are a band working together, not just a group of people who feel that they are entitled to a solo at a given time. "Raices" means roots, and these men have —Barbara Komansky surely gotten back to them. point where Making Music is Bill Withers' first album in years, having been entangled in a messy series of legal problems with his former label, Sussex Records, Columbia, the man who was Rhodes to the best advantage. The effect is simultaneously spacy and melodic; the perfect match of times. J'Souped Up Ford" is the kind of song that would undoubtedly get an audience up and dancing in the aisles. Gallagher has been able to avoid a trap that many hard rock bands fall into: Everything starts to sound alike. Rory provides something identifiable in each cut. "I Take What I Want" features piano and guitar stacked one on top of the other in the style that Duane Allman and Dickie Betts used to stack guitars. "All Around Man" has nasty, biting slide complemented by bluesy honky tonk piano in the instrumental track. The only possible complaint anyone could have is the fact that the lyrics and vocals are severely lacking. This, however, would be invalid because Gallagher prefers to be recognized as a musician. So be it he has achieved his wish Against the Gram Is a splendid example of class British rock and roll. Barbara Komansky J MISSIONHURST...

The songs employ about seven or eight chords, but unlike somebody such as John Prine, they provide no outstanding lyrics to compensate. This group had great potential to be an outstanding jug band, but they seemed intent on proving some kind of non-existent versatility The liner notes indicated that Mungo Jerry was was incredible smash but in Europe, an underexposed in the States, This album certainly won't encourage American sales one bit; it's an obvious conglomeration of nothing. The notes also claim that it's ". . . happy music, fresh, vibrant, foot-stomping music.” It sounds more like a description of proven groups like Poco, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, or Lovin' Spoonful than just another one-single disappearing act. Barbara Komansky play exceptionally (keep a sharp ear on Watts' flute it's simply amazing) as they both, playing nonstop, follow scales and patterns in a beautiful — mixture The last track that I'd like to mention is the title track, "Montara," which is one of two written by Hutcherson on the album ("Vuyo" being the other). "Montara" is a simple melodic piece which could conceivably be a theme song for a television show. Again Ernie Watts, without the showmanship this time and Bobby Hutcherson combine to form something that may be simple but is well written all the same. Jazz in all of its personifications has something more to offer than most musical forms. If you're into checking out something that could most definitely be considered jazz and yet has a beauty which makes it palatable to all tastes, then I suggest savoring Montara. —G.Maltz Friday, 21 November 1975 .

Page seventeen �An inside look at worldwide business: has “the responsibility to know”, The Business Roundtable is sponsoring a series of messages about the fundamental workings of our free enterprise system. Their “mini-course” appears monthly before the country’s largest reading audience in Reader’s Qigest. How the U.S. and foreign governments regulate the business we do abroad has a direct bearing on jobs and paychecks back home. When voters understand the basics of our economic system —and act on that understanding —government listens. Since every citizen ADVERTISEMENT Why Companies Do Business � Abroad � ATmericans arc hearing a lot these days about multi/ national corporations, X but for some reason we rarely hear what they mean to our economic growth and prosperity, or even what they are. A multi-national is a corporation that does a substantial amount of its business in other countries, either on its own or in partnership with host-country corporations. Multinationals, American and foreign, are everywhere. They mine bauxite in Australia, make sewing machines in Britain, sell insurance in Bangkok, operate banks in Iran There arc thousands of them, but generally the term is reserved for the larger, more successful and, so, more conspicuous companies. They also tend to be the corporations that pay the highest wages, and sell products for the lowest prices. In an earlier era, corporations often set up overseas operations for strictly economic reasons —lower transportation costs, for example, or a break on wages. Today, however, many companies find that they can’t enter, or remain in, a foreign market unless they build a factory or set up an office there for at least a p>art of their operations. Mighty General Electric, for example, was called in not long ago by the Brazilian government and told that supplying locomotives from its Erie, Pa., works to the growing Brazilian market was costing Brazil too many dollars and that it was also time some Brazilians worked on GE locomotives. GE ne / gotiated a compromise. Now, in an assembly plant in. Brazil, local workers put on outer psarts. the wheels and other The drive assembly and controls still come from Erie. Both sides got what they wanted: Brazil saves on dollars and gets factory jobs, while GE keeps the high wage, high technology part. If the company had not cooperated, says chairman R. H. Jones, “complete locomotives would now be made in Brazil in plants financed by a Jaoancsc or European company.” When companies establish foreign operations, it nearly always means a surge in the number of their U.S. employes. In 1950, Caterpillar Trac- Co. was struggling to fill its U.S. and foreign orders from two Ameri can plants with 25,000 employes. Today there are 12 overseas Caterpillar plants employing 27,000. But, mean while, the company has grown to 14 U.S. plants employing 62,000—of whom some 24,000 owe their jobs solely to foreign orders. A p«jmtsffTg“Toreign market can be lost irretrievably by not setting up a foreign factory at the right time. In 1964, Du Pont was exporting 34 million pounds of polyethylene to Europe, but decided not to build a plant there. Its European sales of polyethylene soon dropped to the vanishing point, while its foreign competitors moved in and built the market up to four billion pounds a year —“a growth,” Du Pont says, ‘‘that the U.S. economy and its workers did not share in.” Du Pont learned the lesson well. Today it has 44 principal foreign tor REPRINTED FROM THE NOVEMBER 1975 ISSUE OF READER S DIGEST Page eighteen . The Spectrum . Friday, 21 November 1975 Despite the extraordinary contribution of multi-national corporations to our standard of living, the clippers are out in Washington to shear their worldwide operations subsidiaries or affiliated companies employing nearly 32,000 people. Total 1974 sales outside the United States amounted to S2.17 billion, of which over $800 million were U.S. exports. As a result, at least 15,000 new jobs were created in the Unit ed States. These and numerous other examples underline the fact that multi-nationals are good for the U.S. economy, consumer and worker. A U.S. government study covering 300 of the major multi-nationals reveals that when these companies were rapidlv expanding employment abroad, they also raised their U.S. work force at a rate of 2.7 percent a year well above the average growth in American industry. At the same time, they averaged paying their U.S. workers substantially more per hour than U.S. companies without foreign operations. This is only part of what multinationals do lor us. They arc in the forefront of helping the nation compensate lor rising costs of basic raw materials we must import, particulars petroleum.

Americ.m companies operating abroad returned home royalties and foreign earnings of S’1.4 billion —three times the outflow of dollars lor new — foreign investment. All m all, without multi-nationals the extraordinary worldwide rise in living standards would have been slowed. As U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Daniel P. Moynihan has declared: “The multinational corporation, which combines modern management with liberal trade policies, is arguably the most creative international institution of the 20th century.” Indeed, those countries in Europe and Asia making the most progress arc the ones that have encouraged multi-nationals—theirs as well as ours. Despite this, the clippers are out to shear the U.S. multi-nationals of their foreign connections. # •At last count, some 3500 US. corporahad more than $125 billion worth of direct investments abroad. Foreign internationals had $70 billion —some $20 billion of it in the United Slates. tions A while back, the hue and cry was that multi-nationals “export American jobs.” When this proved unfounded, critics seized upon the issue of bribery of foreign officials by the multi-nationals. It is true that some U.S. corporations have been involved in payoffs abroad —usually to avoid confiscation or loss,of business to foreign competitors. This is certainly a practice contrary to good business ethics. But unethical practices by a few companies hardly justify punitive tax proposals now coming to the fore in Washington, which would all but put multinationals out of business. Currently, U.S. overseas businesses pay the full 48-pcrcent U.S. corporate income tax rate when they bring home their profits after paying all taxes in the countries where they operate. These taxes generally arc now as high as ours, and companies are allowed to offset them against the taxes on foreign, but not domestic, income that would otherwise be paid to the U.S. Treasury. This avoids double taxation. Foes of the multi-nationals would have them pav the foreign taxes and immediately give almost half of what was left of their earnings to the U.S. Treasury. This would mean an effective tax rate of almost 75 percent. Since no other country does this, our multi-nationals could not survive under the burden. The economic effect here and abroad of such a move is dismal to contemplate. The value of our vast foreign investments would be sharpIv reduced, and world trade un doubtedlv would suffer. As the recent g'oba! recession has reminded us, when business turns down, no man is an island. \Vc must keep in mind that multi-national corporations are nothing more than business organizations which make up tor the fact that raw materials, products, services, know-how and labor are very unevenly distributed over the globe.

WEU HEAP HIM OFF IN THE SULCH" Ranting and raving search out the facts. It is not only easier In the l:Jilor Vour editorial in Wednesday’s The Spectrum makes me furious! It you were really so interested in why you haven’t heard anything about the Record Coop, why didn't you ask? If you had asked, then you would have discovered that the Student Association and the Coop are working right now, to set up systems that will insure against it ever closing down again. You would have discovered that the administration is not doing anything about the Coop because they are waiting for us to bring our systems over to them. And, whether you like it or not, we shall wait until we have a completed program. But you didn’t want to know, did you? It is so much easier to conjecture and rant and rave, than to to publish this way, but necessary to a bankrupt, worn-out rag. That is what The Spectrum has degenerated to when it used the entire front page for a one liner and writes editorials without taking the effort of one or two phone calls. And never forget who is responsible for this moral and ethical garbage: it is you, for you are responsible for all the garbage that is churned out; it is you whom students should be angry against for giving them false impressions. In the future, I suggest The Spectrum show its true colors: print on yellow paper. Arthur J. Lalonde, Jr. Executive Vice President Student Association Psychiatrists and schizophrenia diagnosis, which is an entirely circular argument that begs the question as soon as the question has been To the h.'Jitor In Monday’s cover story, “Can the Hospital Really Make the Sane Insane,” the writer mentions that Dr. Robert Spitzer accuses the Rosenhan study of being “pseudoscience presented as science," and that the study is "irrevclant to the question of whether psychiatric diagnoses are only in the minds of observers." 1 would like to ask Dr. Spitzer just exactly where he thinks "schizophrenia" is The traditional answer is that "schizophrenia” ism some people rather than others, be it their minds, bodies, or life-styles. The entity called "schizophrenia" that Spitzer is looking for comes out to be nothing more or less than the stale of his consciousness that led him to seek il in the first place. Since it is psychiatrists in particular who make the diagnosis of "schi/ophrenia." it appears that they suffer from ••schizophrenia" (whatever that is) at least as much as the people lo whom the attribution is made. Psychiatrists usually say that “schizophrenia” is present in a "patient" when he behaves in such a that way Yellow journalism "schizophrenia" raised. says that “in remission” is Furthermore, a categroy seldom used, and when used, means that the patient is recovered or no longer ill. Spitzer then concludes that “Rosenhan’s implication that the patient, when released, was still not considered sane, is unwarranted.” Since a “schizophrenic” episode has as definite a course an an initiation ceremonial, (a death and rebirth) remission is no problem; it is only the final and natural outcome of the total process. What needs to be explained by “mental health” hacks is the failure of many people who set out upon this voyage to return from it. I would like to ask Dr. Spitzer, as I am sure so would Dr Rosenhan, do these people encounter circumstances in institutional care so grossly maladaptive fi.e., electroshock, lobotomy, tranquilizers, insulin coma, etc.) that even the richest and best organized hallucinatory experience cannot save them?

You only want to dedicate yourself to create many "injustices” and student activism based on yellow journalism which hurts the students and makes a fool of yourself. 1 hope the students of this school will not depend on you for accurate information and find things out for themselves.

This letter would have been written sooner, but when I read the original letter (in which Mr Tedesco was referred to only as “No. 259”), I thought that a mistake had been made, that he wasn’t the person involved That didn’t sound like Mr. Tedesco. Last year I rode Mr. Tedesco’s bus every day, so I believe 1 am qualified as anyone else to comment on his driving. 1 had an 8:30 a.m. class every morning at Ellicott, which meant a lot of tired, half-awake rides out there early in the morning. When you’re tired and half-organized, even a bus driver’s conduct can have an effect on the rest of your day. Without exception, that effect that Mr Tedesco’s driving produced was a pleasant one. He drives efficiently, but never recklessly. And at least for me, having one less thing to worry about (that is, driving) makes my day a little better. In addition to being one of Blue Bird’s better drivers, Mr. Tedesco is easily the most courteous one 1 have ever ridden with. Since I've ridden the buses a lot, I have some small idea of the things that drivers have to put up with. I know I’d never be able to maintain an even temper, let alone a pleasant disposition, under some circumstances. And Mr. Tedesco always manages to be friendly and polite. 1 don’t think anyone would disagree that a smile means a lot these days.

Now a seasoned veteran, we figured it would he fun to sec what changes have occurred since last year's race. So, we now give Turkey Trot Revisited. you ” by John H. Reiss Spectrum Staff Writer Last year I didn’t mind doing this assignment. In fact I enjoyed it. I was a freshman, it was my first year on the staff and I was going to do whatever I was told. Even so it interested me. A Plimptonian article, running the Turkey Trot for The Spectrum. 1 was given the privilege of doing said story because of an offhand remark I had made to last year’s sports editor, Bruce Engel, stating that 1 had been keeping in shape by running. Although this was true when the comment was made I had long since abandoned this practice by race time. Rubin the taskmaker This year, however, was different. Editor David J. Rubin knew very well that weekly contests in intramural football were the extent of my running. This knowledge, coupled with the good friendship that binds us, left me with the firm conviction that 1 had seen the last of the Turkey Trot. In fact, upon observing the advertisements laden on the walls of Clark Hall promoting the event I laughed reminicing about last year’s debacle and postulated as of scrawny, to what sort freshman would green frightened, see his heart pound through his sweatshirt this time around. the imaginary However, freshman was never to be because five days before the race Rubin informed me that 1 would be the paper’s choice once again. Apparently the reasoning was that I would learn from my past mistakes and vastly improve my performance. Wrong again, Rubin. Weightlifting no help This year most,of my physical consisted of very training semi-regular work outs in the weight room at Clark Hall. The beneficial effects supposedly associated with this type of exercise have apparently not made their mark on my body yet. My return from the weight room usually causes convulsive laughter followed by the unsolicited advice that in the future I should try putting some weights on the bar. In any event 1 decided Wednesday, race day. that jogging to class might not be the worst of ideas. After having run no more than 100 yards (it seemed endless) I chose to walk. 1 wouldn’t want to tire myself before the race now would I? Soon after this aborted at had running attempt terminated, a conversation between my brain and my heart took place, one which I was not informed of until after the race: As the gun sounded, 100 people, including a friend who informed by our news sources promised to run with me, left me that this clod who employs us in their dust.

Such a fee would most probably improve and interviews will hopefully give some insight into the insure funding for athletics for the next few years at real differences between the “pro-athletics” people, least.

Hopefully, these interviews will take a - - well. closer look at athletic issues by allowing those people interviewed to more carefully explain their It is hoped that the wide variety of people interviewed in this series will result in the airing of opinions from one extreme to the other and everything in between, giving the University the positions.

If its intent is to be taken at face value, the law appears to be a dismal failure. This fall Western New York witnessed teacher strikes in Niagara Falls, the Starpoint district in Niagara County, the Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) in Niagara and Orleans Counties, Springville, Orchard Park and Williamsville. The Buffalo Police are currently engaged in a “courtesy campaign” brought on by a dispute over uniform allowances. The police are avoiding issuing tickets for parking or traffic violations until the dispute is settled. by Mike McGuire Contributing editor New York State’s Taylor Law, which governs relations with public employees, has been controversial since its passage and it is likely to remain so as each September, another part of New York Slate is hit by an “illegal” teachers’ strike. The law, known officially as the Public Fair Employment Act, covers most aspects of relations between public employees on the slate and local levels, and their employing agencies. It includes the right to join or not to join an “employee organization" (the word “union” is nowhere mentioned in the law), sets the right of such organizations to bargain with the employing agency on behalf of its members, establishes a Public Employees Relations Board (PERB) to oversee employee-employer relations, provides a procedure for handling impasses in collective bargaining, and prohibits “improper actions” on the part of either employers or “employee organizations.” Penalties The Taylor Law’s weakness does not lie in a lack of penalties. A striking employee can be docked two days’ pay for every day on strike, is placed on probation for a year, and is denied tenure for a year following the offense. A striking union can lose its'“checkoff privilege, which allows it to automatically deduct dues from members’ paychecks, and in turn, can he docked an average week's dues and initiation lees for every day of the strike. In addition, if the employer obtains an injunction against a proposed strike, union leaders can be hit with additional lines and even jail terms, as was the case in the Orchard Park strike. Union leaders in Orchard Park arc out on bail while they appeal their convictions. Section 210 The most well-known and controversial part of the law, however, is Section 210, which states “No public employee or employee organization shall engage in a strike, and no public employee or employee organization shall cause, instigate, encourage, or condone a strike." The same section makes a work slowdown or stoppage on the day of a strike equivalent to striking, and says that any employee absent without permission on the day of a strike shall be presumed to be on strike. Section 210 also outlines procedures in case of violation and lays out penalties for striking, both to individuals and to the “employee organization." According to a different section of the Taylor Law. a union must affirm that it does not support (he rigid to strike if it is to be recognized as a bargaining agent. Mediators Union leaders cite the law's provisions for overcoming bargaining deadlocks as one of its major faults. Under Section '0*>. a mediator in case of a not ptoducc deadlock, and the Hoard panel (usually three / , ENJOY WORKING The Spectrum is published Monday, WITH PEOPLE?

If this fails, the fact-finders can resubmit their recommendations to both sides 6f the dispute. If a settlement still isn't reached. PERB itself can make recommendations to both sides of suggest an arbitrator. Should either of those steps fail, both sides submit their arguments, along with the fact-finders’ report, to the legislative body of that particular agency. In the case of school districts, the legislative body is board; otherwise it could be a city council, a school the town council, a library board, or sometimes the state legislature itself (if aides to legislators were to reach an impasse with budget officers of the legislature). Opinions The legislative body can thus override the recommendations of fact-finders, arbitrators, mediators, and PERB itself, it it so chooses (although only school districts do so with any frequency). Calling a strike, the traditional last recourse of a labor union, is illegal for public employees under the law. it is the opinion of many labor leaders who have come in contact with the Taylor Law that the legislative body is not a disinterested observor, particularly if it is a school board, and that a union has only “theoretical” recourse if a state or local agency should refuse to bargain in good faith, or for that matter refuse to bargain at all. It is a small comfort to union members that, in assessing fines against unions, a judge can take into account the fact that the strike was provoked by the employer, if such is the case. Substitution? Another weakness of the law. according to many observers, is that it fails to differentiate between employees whose daily services are absolutely essential, such as firemen, sanitationmen and policemen, those whose absence would be felt but would nut bring about the collapse of society. And finally, those whose services are important but whose absence would be considered merely an inconvenience if it lasted for only several days. In a growing number of slates, laws are being changed so that there is a right to strike for the latter two groups, but not for those workers deemed absolutely essential. These issues are certain to be raised if and when a substitute to the Taylor Law is considered in New York Slate.

Cray Staff Writer Spectrum Getzville Volunteer Fire Chief Dan Miller met with University officials Friday to discuss what he feels are the deficient safety precautions at the Amherst campus. Miller said he was pleased with the results of the meeting in which he presented a list of proposals to John Telfcr, Vice President for Facilities Planning, and Robert Hunt, Director of Environmental Health and Safety, Lawrence Southwick, an Amherst Town councilman and management professor. Hunt indicated one of Miller’s greatest concerns was the ability of fire apparatus to reach the exterior of Amherst buildings. Hunt explained that some of the buildings arc set far back from the roads, and Miller feels this makes reaching them a problem. Miller requested a curb on Flint Road be cut so the North Bailey Fire Department can reach Putnam Way directly from Maple Road without going all the way- to the Flint Road entrance. Changes Hunt said Miller asked that curbs should be cut Governors Residence Hall to provide a wider at entrance path. He also asked that additional standpipes be installed in some buildings. Facilities Planning is studying Miller’s proposals and will see what changes can be made, Hunt added. He said a follow-up meeting with Miller will be scheduled to discuss the stiuation more fully and determine what changes can be made. He noted that some changes would have to be included in budget requests and approved by Albany. Hunt said he was already aware of many of Miller’s concerns, and that his department and Facilities Planning had been studying them. “I think if we can solve the access problems we will have gone a long way to meeting their (Miller s) concerns,” Hunt said. Productive relationship Southwick, who serves as a liason between the Amherst fire departments and the town board, also felt the meeting was very productive. He said both the administration and Miller are working towards the same goals, and that Hunt and Telfer were cooperating as much as they could. Hunt also feels that a good working relationship has been established with Miller. He said he thought all of Miller’s proposals were good, but added that it takes time and money to make changes. False fire alarms, which Miller is extremely concerned about, were also discussed. Hunt said the problem is intensified by a New York State Law which requires all school fire alarm systems to be tied directly to a fire department.” The interpretation of “schools” has always been unclear, according to Hunt. He claimed it has never been established if this refers to all schools or only elementary and high schools.

The speakers included State Senator James McFarland, History professor Dr. Michael Frisch, Vice President for Health Sciences Carter Pannill, SA president Michele Smith, Union of University Professionals representative Oliver Gibson, Construction Industry Logan, president- Robert Employers Association Inter-Residence Council president David Brownstein, and Student Association of the State University (SASU) president Bob Kirkpatrick. About 150 attended the event, designed to inform the University community of the ramifications New York City’s default would have for the State University (SUNY) and for other parts of the state, including Western New York. Same rhetoric Frisch termed president Gerald Ford’s reasons for opposing aid for New York City “the same sort of rhetoric that has been coming out of Washington for years,” and part of “one of the oldest games in American politics.” He said that because of New York’s situation, the economy is close to the crisis period hit in the 1920’s, when people “panic,” and begin to believe “that their institutions are unsound.” “It’s not just New York; look right in front of you!” he exclaimed. He gloomily predicted that if New York City is not helped, “the consequences are going to follow.” Pannill reported that the local Porad of Regents has recommended that the tuition at the Medical School here be raised from $1600 to $4000. “At the present time, our student body is far from rich,” he said. ‘This should cause some concern.” Magnitude He said that at the present time, about one-third of the Medical School’s student body need “total financial aid.” He fears astronomical tuition costs would turn medicine and dentistry into “a rich man’s profession.” The budget crisis should not concern medical students alone, however, Pannill emphasized. If New York City defaults, he predicted that law and other professional schools would be hit just as hard. “This is of sufficient magnitude for all of us to be concerned. Now is the time for us to start paying attention,” he said. Logan emphasized the devastating effect on local Western New York construction projects, and thus on the jobs of local citizens, that the City’s default would have. The state’s poor financial situation has already delayed the beginning of many projects across the state, he siad. He said a health construction industry, because of the jobs and revenue it brings to a community, is “basic to the economy and to the well-being of our country.” The “ripple-effect” of the City’s financial crisis is already making its force felt in Western New York. “We are concerned as an industry,” he concluded. Bob Kirkpatrick commented. He wondered aloud where the activism of the Near criminal management McFarland stressed that although New York has 60’s among students has disappeared to, since “the issues probably reached its present crisis due to “near criminal being faced now come closer to the heart of education management” in the handling of the financial affairs of the than they did then.” He remarked that the Teach-In, although an city,” that it must be still helped out by the federal encouraging sign, would be “a mere triviality, unless some government.

The remedial English or Subject A supervisor argued that this “illiteracy” was a “cultural problem, as students in an electronic society* have little chance to acquire reading-writing - Grammar ugh! The director of the English 100 program at USC called the program “a survival course" and accused high schools of over-emphasizing literature at the expense of grammar. “It isn’t always the students’ fault that they lack these skills," she said. “Most students tell us that the last time they had a grammar review was the eighth grade.” Other university officials have different explanations for the under-educated college student. Jerome Weber, University College Dean at Oklahoma University, attributed part of the problem to the shifts in high school goals from the three R’s to more social and personal growth. Others claimed it was a problem unique to a generation which was raised on television and radio. Instructors at the University of California have reported that students in their freshman English classes are not proficient in even the fundamentals of - skills.” TV classrooms According to the director of academic programs at UCLA, the television society is to blame for less educated college students. “Students today are more verbal,” he said. “They don’t read. They don’t have the written skills they once did. They’re TV educated.” But a recent report in the Christian Science Monitor holds the whole college-oriented society responsible for the lower level of skills of incoming freshmen. The report stales that many officials feel the reason for the student skills gap is the fact that the whole post-secondary education system has become much less elite. This has been particularly true in recent years when many colleges began admitting students who would not have met the minimum qualifications for admission several years ago when the competition for college space was fiercer. For instance, students with SAT verbal scores of 350 can be admitted to the University of South Carolina, but enrollment in a basic skills program is required for freshmen with verbal scores between 350 and 390. Although hundreds of colleges and universities are making basic skills programs available to their students, it is often the student’s choice to attend or not to attend. Unfortunately, many students do not recognize their own needs for remedial classes and spurn them. There is still a stigma attached to classes which set out to do no more than leach college students skills they should have acquired in S* secondary schools. And many colleges which offer basic skills classes give little or no college credit for the hours spent catching up. But if the basic skills levels of incoming freshmen continues to decline, students may rush to the remedial English courses just to insure their survival in regular college classrooms.

Now, with more high school students going to college and admissions standards at many schools loosening, administrators are recognizing the existence of a basic skills gap which handicaps many college students. Colleges and universities across the country are setting up remedial programs to meet the needs of students who find they never learned how to write in complete sentences. Basic skills programs are most prevalent at two-year and community colleges, but the problem has also surfaced at private four-year schools which have traditionally drawn the cream of the high school crop. At the University of South Carolina (USC) where lower SAT scores prompted a remedial grammar class called English 100, the admissions director blamed the increasing popularity of college for decreasing proficiency in English skills. “A broader segment of people taking the test results in a broader base of ability being measured,” he said.

And, at least for a while, 1 don’t expect to become obsessed with filmmaking per se as a lifelong artistic pursuit. With the exception of handling (and/or caressing) an occasional Super 8 camera or two, not to mention a 16mm Bolex (!) that some filmmaker friends brought over to my place recently when we viewed some of their films together, I have never shot even a frame of footage in my entire life. In one part, it’s because I have been to obsessed with viewing, analysing, criticizing, learning about, and loving movies for the past few years to become as equally obsessed with making them. But, also, it’s the money angle that has prevented me from the legitimate pleasure of being behind the camera for once. Don’t let anyone fool you: filmmaking is an expensive proposition. To give you an example, let me take a three-minute 16mm color sound film that one of my friends made. After accounting for film stock, processing, sound striping, dubbing, and special lab costs for fades, dissolves, etc., his film cost around $350! Now that’s 16mm. The same film in Super 8 would probably come to about one-fourth to one-fifth the cost. That comes to about $90 tops, but who can afford that? Much less $2.75 (or $1.25, if you, as I, cannot afford anything but the matinee) to go to see a first-run flick out in the suburbs. But if you have the filmmaking bug and can’t shake it, start off with the most inexpensive format possible Super 8. Then do two more things: one, if you are a student, go to the Film Club in Norton Hall and plunk down your $5 membership fee which will give you access to the camera equipment they have to offer and, two, go to your nearest good bookstore, pull $6.95 out of your wallet, and buy Lenny Lipton’s newest book on filmmaking, The Super 8 Book. If you are not familiar with Lipton, he is a filmmaker who several years ago wrote what is now considered to be the Bible of 16mm filmmaking, Independent Filmmaking (Straight Arrow, $7.95). Well, if Independent Filmmaking is the Old Testament (to continue this Biblical metaphor), The Super 8 Book is definitely The New Testament of - , filmmaking. Like its precursor. The Super 8 Book is the most comprehensive book on Super 8 filmmaking that (to my knowledge) has been published (Kodak pamphlets notwithstanding).

The highest praise I believe I can bestow on this I book is that Lipton constantly strives for that ali-encompassmg comprehensiveness. This is not to say he does not have prejudices. He is very quick (and honest) to point them out. He favors the use of single system sound camera as opposed to double |H system, and he dislikes the use of zooms and pans. He is equally quick to point out that his method is simply that; his method. “They should be taken for what they are,” he points out, “one man’s way | of working a camera; you’ll be making a mistake if B you take this as dogma or anything more than a you fo own '" ,mne ,nd - Founder & / teacher of the "We Will Remember Survival School” THURSDAY.

I �VPERG Lifeline, an energy saving concept to help consumers by Jacqueline Schock Spectrum Staff Writer. A progressive utilities rate structure, recently introduced by the Vermont Public Interest Research Group (VPERG), is being considered for New York State residents. Lifeline, VPERG’s new plan, would provide a low, fixed pricing system for such basic utility services as heat and light. The plan is simple and equitable: the more power used, the greater the cost to the consumer. The consumer advocate group contends 'nirrcntly that utility companies consumers by small discriminate against for amounts of lower rates charging larger which wasteful promotes a power, practice consumption. According to Marvin Resnikoff, a physicist and member of Buffalo NYPIRG, Lifeline would shift the burden to larger, industrial consumers, thereby discouraging waste by all consumers. Resnikoff, testifying before the New York State Assembly Committee on Corporations, asserted that “when industry for other than starts looking energy-intensive means to make products, “Industries that use most of the energy today arc not creating jobs. This is why labor supports Lifeline. Thus, there is a broad coalition of senior citizens, poor and fixed-income persons, who support Lifeline and urge its passage,’' he continued. David Lennett, NYPIRG Executive Board member, said that hearings will be held by the State Assembly Committee on Authorities and Corporations, Commissions, in Buffalo this December, where Lifeline will be considered as an alternative to the present rate structure. “Advocates of Lifeline are traditionally faced with two possible mechanisms of realizing their goal,” Lennett said. ‘They can cither appeal to the state regulatory body to reform the present electric rate structure or they can organize their efforts around a legislative program designed to implement a Lifeline rate structure. In New York State both mechanisms are underway simultaneously.” He added that the legislative route has been the mechanism chosen in Maine and California, where Lifeline has been passed. Energy stamps proposed by the Federal Energy Administration and the utilities is Energy Stamps, a method of helping lower-income families meet the cost of their electric, gas and fuel oil bills. Those who meet the guidelines of federal poverty income levels can purchase these coupons to use in lieu of cash for utility payments. In his testimony, Resnikoff stated that NYPIRG strongly opposes the use of energy stamps, “unlike welfare, which is a subsidy to poor people, energy stamps would be a subsidy to the utilities,” he declared. “Utilities would raise their rates and money would go through the hands of the poor people right to the utilities. We oppose energy stamps because they would only apply to a small number of consumers rather than to the majority of us who need relief from a rate structure which favors large consumers over small users.” He feels energy stamps avoid “the real issue, the present rate structure.” If rates were designed to reward conservation instead of use, the need for expansion and capital and rate increases would be sharply reduced. ‘This is what Lifeline would accomplish,” he said. Resnikoff reiterated that Lifeline is backed by “a broad coalition of groups” throughout New York State, and declared that “it is a concept whose time has come.” Human sexuality day seminar Human Sexuality Day will be celebrated in the illmore Room tomorrow from 9 a m. to 5 p.m. The Human Sexuality Center (Pregnancy Counseling) will sponsor a “mass education of the University community on all aspects of human sexuality,” INDEPENDENT FOREIGN CAR SERVICE INC., 2820 BAILEY (Only one mile from Main Campus] behind Radio Shack, 838-6200 "j ' I I Now!

I hope you people fight back! The article in The Spectrum following the Polish Cultural Exchange Wrestling Match on November 1st did not come out quite the way I envisioned it. I do not blame the reporter since during the excitement of the post-match activities, there could have been a failure in communication on my part. First of all, 1 want to point out that the contribution of many people at the University was monumental. Wrestling Coach Ed Michael not only put in tremendous hours and talent, but drove back and forth from Oswego on the day of the clinic and match and ran things smoothly. Dennis Delia, student coordinator, was an absolute wonder. The time, energy, talent and ability to get things done displayed by him was beyond all expectations. Frank Jackalone helped Dennis and stayed with the Polish Wrestling Team all during the time they were here and chauffered them around. The reception by the University Polish Cultural dub was beautiful and Barbara Pientka, President of the Club, was a gracious hostess. The cheerleaders and other students who helped at the door and by selling programs were great. Assistant Coach Scott Stever made a tremendous contribution as did Joe Staebell, U.B.’s equipment manager, and the ticket salesman. Art Westfall, did a great Job. The message I meant to convey to Larry Amoros, who was the reporter, was that in the past, I heard U.B. referred to in uncomplimentary terms, and I had heard of the school being referred to as the "world’s apathy capital." What I wanted to convey was that I, and many others, were willing to pitch in and provide the students with activities and events which would change that image and would add to the total experience of the students on campus. I do wish to convey a positive approach for the future. As was stated in the article, we will attempt to bring in other activities and events and we hope the student body will wholeheartedly get behind them in the future. Estimates on the crowd varied from 500 to 750 in the outside, depending on who was making the estimate. The article estimated the turnout at 200 people, a figure which again must have resulted from a failure of communication. My intent in giving the interview to your reporter was not to call names, but to help do something positive to change what I think has been an unfortunate image. -Harvey Rogers Niagara District A.A.U. Wrestling Chairman President Greater Buffalo Amateur Wrestling Club, Inc. U.B. '51 �IFRICAN MOUNT/ ERA —Attack on working class To the Editor. Proposed state Equal Rights Amendments have been voted down in N.Y. and N.J. prompting some negative reaction from women and men on this campus through The Spectrum. Blit far from signifying a failure of the people of New York State to support women, this vote signifies a failure on the part of the ruling class’ politicians and legislators to get over their most recent attack on working women, and the working class as a whole. Representatives from the ERA pushers have been coming to union meetings around Buffalo to make speeches and pass out literature. “Here’s our chance,” they say, “to make good on the American Dream, the 200 year old promise of equality. Support the ERA.” They talk especially proud about just their list of supporters, which reads like Who’s Who the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, every President since Eisenhower, financial families famous for their “charity” work, and the top officials of almost every trade union. Why such bourgeois support behind such equal-sounding words? Is the ERA just so much hot air, or will it have any real effect? It will have an effect all right. But it won’t have anything tp do with “equality” as far as the working class is concerned. Equal pay for equal work? Child care for working women? That’s not ERA territory. But it will affect the conditions we work under. Because, while the ERA grants some token opportunity especially to business and professional women, its main thrust will be to rob the working class of - Regrets protective laws that apply to women workers. These are the laws that put limitations on the amount of forced overtime women have to accept, on the weights employers can demand that they lift, and that guarantee certain rest and meal breaks. They are not, as the ERA pushers imply, old-fashioned laws that were put on the books by an employing class that feared that women were too delicate to work very hard. Women in the sweatshops were never put up on any pedestal. Our grandparents fought like hell to win those laws. The ERA would make them unconstitutional because they apply to women only. The ERA guarantees the “equal opportunity” for all of us to work 18 hours a week of forced overtime, to share equally in the speed up. And there’s the “equal opportunity” the Staten Island Hospital bosses offered the women maids recently when they tried to force them to do the work of the porters, clearing the way to lay off the porters. That’s the kind of “equality” the working class doesn’t need. Sixty years ago, when the working class won that was the protective laws for women workers fight for women’s equality, working class style. We still need it today, to defend protective laws and extend them to men workers. We don’t need to pin ourselves onto the tail of a movement for “equality” capitalist style, so that they can make good on their real “200 year old promise” to exploit the working class, men and women alike, with full — - “equality.” Revolutionary Communist Party Revolutionary Student Brigade for vets To the Editor. Recently, there was a news article and also an editorial in The Spectrum concerning and protesting the action of the U.S. House of Representatives in voting to terminate Gl Bill benefits for veterans entering the Armed Forces on or after 1 January 1976. The implicit assumption behind both the article and the editorial seems to be that veterans per se have the right to these benefits. But what is it that makes veterans so special? Historically, the rationale for veterans’ benefits has been that the country owes a debt of gratitude to those men and women who have risked their lives during wartime in the service of their country. One may ask, then, why these same benefits should be awarded to those who have not had to risk their lives in this manner and who, further, had a choice of whether they wished to join the Armed Forces in the first place, given the discontinuance of the draft. It may be argued that the government should see to it that all people have the advantage of an education and thus veterans too should be helped, but this is another matter entirely divorced from the - specific question of the merits of (II Bill benefits and should not be allowed to confuse the issue. Just so that my personal bias may be evaluated. I might add that I am a graduate student who. until the term of my benefits ran out. was receiving (• I Bill educational assistance as a Vietnam War veteran. Henedikt M. Kellner P.S. I might point out that lately The Spectrum distribution to Acheson Hall has been either non-existent or at best inadequate. Intelligence requested To the Editor. I recently sent a letter to The Spectrum concerning the Women’s Studies College issue. It was printed in the November 12th issue. I apologize if I offended anyone with the strong ■anguage of my letter. Jeff Van Praag and Dave Weiteman sent in a response that appeared in the November 14th issue. They sent their letter in with the sole intent of having a little “fun” and taking personal potshots at me. For those of you who wonder why they would do this, Mr. Van Praag is one of my roommates and Mr. Weiteman lives down the hall. It’s sad that these two “men” I use the term loosely feel that taking personal potshots is more important than discussing such an important issue as this intelligently. I wish that “people" again, I use the term loosely like these two would keep their personal problems out of The Spectrum. Now, let’s get back to the issue. I ask that the truly concerned persons on campus send in an intelligent letter and define and justify the reasons for keeping men out of “Women in Contemporary Society.” Please don’t give the general, ambiguous reasons that have been circulating around the — - Injustice to vets To the Editor Just two days after most of America paid tributes to the sacrifices veterans have made for this country and while we are in the midst of a Bi-centennial Celebration which is a direct result of these sacrifices, the Vietnam veteran’s media-twisted image has been reinforced by yet another injustice. On National Television, Thurs., Nov. 14th, Johnny Carson, whose thoughtless witicisms are taken by millions as gospel, stated that the rise in crime in this country could be attributed to the fact that - — “Vietnam veterans were taught to be violent.” In other words. Vietnam vets are the zombie-like felons responsible for the present crime rate. We can also assume from his statement that WW II and Korean vets were not “taught to be violent." If this is correct then we must also conclude that the military planners of Hiroshima and Nagasaki sought only to provide a non-violent demonstration of Nuclear Power! Patrick S. Kelly President of UH Veterans Association campus. Thank you, very much. Walter F. Thiessen, Jr. Combat violence To the Editor Following the mles To the Editor To begin with I would like to thank you for your criticism about my handling of 259. It seems to me as well as the rest of the hands that feed me, that 259 is operated properly and with the proper authority. I do not consider myself the driver of a tank on a battleground. My job here is not to cruise along and run people over if they happen to be in my way, I am a trained and licensed bus driver for Blue Bird Coach Lines. I am here to serve the University community. As a part of this community you have to follow the same rules as anyone else in regard to bus transportation. To begin with, you first have to learn where the bus stops are. For the Amherst runs the bus stop is only on the Clark Hall sice of Diefendorf annex and after 6 p.m. the Tower side of Norton Hall. For call of the Ridge Lea runs these are only on the Harriman side of Diefendorf annex and after 6 p.m. also at the Tower side of Norton Hall. As you can very well see there are no stops in between. Myself, as well as alt of the other drivers do make the stops around the bend for anyone who happens to flag us down. But. you have to realize which you apparently do not, that there are certain instances that force us not to make all of these unlisted stops These are: A full bus load which usually occurs at that time of day. 2. Weather conditions; as you may recall, the weather was very bad and any unnecessary stopping would impede other bus traffic causing lateness and possibly an accident. You must realize these things: use your own judgment. Think about it, you would have done the same thing, I am responsible for my passengers and 1 will not do anything that can possibly hurt them. As for my driving I do not race around that corner. To begin with 259 or any bus for that matter, could not possibly get into a high enough gear to excede the speed of 20 -mph which is the University speed limit. So think about these things and you will realize that your accusations of myself and 259 are false. Think about others in the University community. They can follow the rules and so do I. I hope you will take these things into consideration and realize your mistake. 1. I appeal to the University community to consider honestly combating crime in our streets, thus lessening possible crime in our homes. I don’t advocate putting on your good Samaritan badge and hustling off to your trusty, waiting VW (Bug) in hot persuit of wrong doers. On the contrary, I suggest that we simply flood local intransigent T.V. stations with realistic requests for less violence and more positively oriented programs. That’s all folks. hru On/y one travel service To the Hditor. This is to alleviate any confusion regarding Travel services on campus. UUAB is not involved in any way with any travel service.

These are only two of the doomsday statistics on global and domestic hunger that serve as a backdrop for the National University Conference on Hunger, set for November 21-23 at the University of — - Texas at Austin. “If we have learned anything in the past year,” conference organizers said, “it is that the problems of global and domestic hunger will be here, rising and falling, for many years to come.” According to conference organizers, the conference “will examine components of a sensible and comprehensive national food policy, discuss ways of establishing hunger as a teachable course at the university level, and outline suggestions on what individuals and groups can do to combat hunger.” One of the most important discussions, conference organizers said, will involve the question of food as a right for all people. “It is ironic that in this country public education is considered more of a right than food,” said the Rev. William Sloane Coffin, Chaplain at Yale University and one of the conference participants. Enrollment problems them out Human Sexuality Day Thursday, Nov. 20 from 9 5 pm in the Fillmore Room - information tables on (CPS) Colleges groping after tight money are doing strange things to school policies these days. The University of Colorado (UC), faced with a has legislature-imposed ceiling, enrollment announced a new plan that will kick some students out while Florida school officials have hatched a scheme to keep them in. At UC, admission is at a premium after state lawmakers froze enrollment at the 18,600 level. Last year there were 10,000 new freshmen and transfer applications out of which 6800 were accepted and 3700 finally enrolled. So, to facilitate the ousting of marginal students, the CU College of Arts and Sciences changed its rules to allow for academic suspensions twice a year instead of once and abolished the “sliding scale” which formerly gave a break to students with a sub-2.0 grade point average. In Florida however, they don’t want to let the students get away. There, the Board of Regents passed a rule last spring which would require students at all Florida state-supported schools to complete a certain amount of credit hours during the summer. The rule would be waived in case of hardship. Since the money situation for Florida schools is now grim at best, the Board of Regents of Human Sexuality. | getting them in and keeping Last year 700 UC students were suspended and 300 more will join their ranks this year, according to Arts and Sciences Associate D$an John Cames.

Fifty OSU students were recently shown an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence and asked whether they agreed with it. According to the results published in the Barometer the campus paper, 41 of the students said they agreed with the paragraph which talks about “the Rights of the People to alter or abolish” a wayward government. The results run counter to several polls of recent years in which people asked if excerpts read to them were authored by Che Guevara rather than Thomas — , Jefferson. In the OSU poll, in which only two students disagreed and seven were undecided, over half said they had read a similar statement elsewhere.

Clits held off a powerful QB 714 steam 7-6 to Buffalo’s Intramural capture Championship Football last Saturday at Rotary Field. “The defense kept coming up with the big plays when we needed them. They won it for us,” said Bob Johanson, the captain and quarterback of the Clits. The Clits needed a lot of big defensive plays to hold off the always threatening QB 714, which came within 20 yards of scoring seven of the eight times they had the ball, including four drives that fell as close as five yards shy of the goal line. “They beat us. They just played a better game,” said a dejected Brian Rosenbloom, upset with his team’s inability to score from in close. The Clits scored first following a pass interference penalty in the end zone giving them a first down on the one yard line. Johanson wasted no time in taking advantage of the big break by sweeping around left end for a touchdown. Bernie McKeever pulled down a deflected pass for what proved to be the winning extra point.

But the CUt defense refused to yield on the next three downs with Joe Makinajian nailing Rosenbloom for a loss on fifth down. (In intramurals, the offense is aUowed five downs because there are no first downs to be gained.) The goal Une stand by the Clits was only the first of numerous such frustrations suffered by the QB 714. A kev interception TODAY!! — by the Clits’ Bernie McKeever on his own one-yard Une stopped another exceUent scoring opportunity by QB 714 only minutes later. A long bomb from Roscnbloom to Gross had the QB 714 7 yards away from paydirt with four downs remaining. But on the third down, a heavy pass rush led by Leon Gossin deflected the pass that was picked off by McKeever. With one minute left in the game and QB 714 buried deep in its own territory, Rosenbloom threw a desperation bomb that resulted in a questionable and crucial pass interference call giving QB 714 new Ufe and a first down at mid-field. Rosenbloom quickly connected on passes to Henkin and Morrie Fox moving the baU down to the three-yard line. It was at this point when the Clits proved themselves champions. On third down, the CUts’ Makinajian and Gossin combined to catch Rosenbloom for a loss back to the IS. Tremendous pass rushes along with great pass coverage forced two more incomplete passes and ended QB 714’s hope for a miraculous ending. The CUts reached the finals by stopping previously the undefeated Bionic Men 7-6 after an earlier game ended a scoreless tie. The first game was marred by five interceptions in a battle of defenses. Fine punting by both teams continually hampered die offenses with poor field position. The CUts quickly got on the scoreboard in the second game on a Johanson pass to Ernie Schinder, and Charlie Schembri caught the game winning extra point. Midway through the second half, the Bionic Men scored their touchdown on a pass from Mike to Dave Borsak.

II statistics are to be believed, and numbers valued as truths, then it is clear that the Stale University at Buffalo hockey Bulls are no match for the FCAC Division I teams that they play. This past weekend, the skaters dropped a pair of games to the visiting Soo Lakers of Lake Superior Stale, being outscored 16-7; 8-5 on Friday and 8-4 on Saturday. But the score is not always an accurate indication of the games' events. The Bulls played the Soo Lakers even up through the first two periods of both games, before twice wilting under pressure in the third periods, Friday night’s contest was a typical "almost” game. Bernstein Merson Although the hockey Bulls won only one out of three games last week, left winger Jack Kaminska played excellently in each game. In Wednesday’s 4-3 triumph over Elmira, Kaminska scored the tying and winning goals. On Friday, against Lake Superior, he prevented the game from getting out of hand early with his outstanding penalty killing and fore-checking. Kaminska also got an assist and was named second star of the game. His play continued to shine on Saturday and as a result. Jack Kaminska is this week's Athlete of the Week.

The start of the match was delayed for an hour and hall as workmen tried to get the situation under control. Unfortunately for the Bulls, they eventually repaired the ice. and turned the control of the game over to the referees. The officials almost blew the game for the Buffalo skaters, forcing the Bulls into the penalty boxes in the early stages of all three periods. The ten minor penalties Buffalo gathered during the game gave them plenty of time to practice (heir penalty killing at a lime when they desperately needed to score goals themselves. "I hale lo point to excuses, but it appeared that there might be a lack of discretion," said Bulls’ coach Pd Wright of the officials' erratic calls. "One of them is calling penalties cross-ice for the other. It makes you think that maybe they arc incompetent.” Disallowed goal Competency is not the only thing in doubt about the officiating of the game. Referee Dave Principe and Richard Brinkman disallowed a perfectly legitimate Buffalo goal because they didn’t see it go in. By disallowing dial goal, the officials stunned the players, fans and most of all, the goal judge, who had turned on the red light when he saw the puck go in. That score would have put the Bulls just one goal down at S-4. and almost anything could have happened from there on. Instead, the officials’ error kept the two-goal margin in tact and took the heart out of the Bulls “The goal hit the center post and came out,” said Wright. “That’s a case of an official having no intestinal fortitude. Why wasn’t he in position?” The game marked the Buffalo debut of goaltender Alex Swift who played a gutsy if not spectacular game. The 21-year old freshman stopped 54 shots in an onslaught of rubber fired at the Bulls’ net. Wright had only words of praise for Swift, who hung in when the going seemed particularly tough.” Alex played a good game. He kept us in there to some extent until the third period,” Wright observed. Two-thirds successful The third period those were accursed words for the Buffalo skaters, as they seemed to run out of wind in the game’s last stanza. In the opening contest, they came out ready to pounce on Lake Superior, and wound up losing when the Soo Lakers fired 25 shots on goal in the closing 20 minutes. The best explanation for that loss was overaggressiveness. The Bulls seemed to be taking a lot of unnecessary gambles and heavy risks in the offensive zone and got caught deep, leaving Swift to face the Soo Lakers in one on one situations. On Saturday night the Bulls entered the final period knotted at three, when the Soo Lakers once again took command and sealed the Bulls’ fate, with five closing goals. — Hats off Soo Laker Ian Ward, who scored two goals in Saturday’s contest, popped the three goal hat trick in the Buffalo net on Friday for a five-goal weekend. Teammate Kim Gellert came up with four of his own on Saturday for the visitors’ second hat trick. Despite the two losses, there were bright spots in the Buffalo lineup. One was the excellent penalty killing of Ray Gruarin and Jack Kaminska, along with the fine play of Mike Caruana on the blueline. Additionally, rookie winger Ronny Reisweber added two goals in Saturday’s contest, to go with the tallies by Rick Wolstenholme and Gruarin. The Bulls must be able to put together three complete periods of hockey if they are to play on a level with Division I teams. If they can sustain the type of performances they exhibited in the first two periods of the Lake Superior games, then winning should become a regular occurrence, providing the refereeing doesn’t ruin the results.

Does insanity exist? Or is it merely with the which, a label along of a environment depersonalizing psychiatric ward, helps create the very syndrome it represents? A controversy centering on these questions is presently raging in the field of mental health, following the report of a field experiment by Dr. David L. Rosenhan, in which psychiatrists failed to weed out “sane pseudo-patients” from the “insane” in their wards. Rosenhan’s article, On Being Sane in Insane Places , was published in the January 1973 issue of Science magazine. In it, he reports on the experiment, which consisted of the voluntary admission of trained 12 psychiatric “pseudo-patients" to hospitals on the East and West coats of this but one were initially country. All diagnosed “paranoid schizophrenic,” and released on an average of 19 days later, with a diagnosis of “schizophrenia, in remission.” • Harmful, at best Conceding that some behavior is unquestionably deviant or odd, including murder and hallucinations, Rosephan nevertheless argues that “psychological categorization of mental illness is useless at best and downright harmful, misleading and pejorative at worst.” As an example of the inadequacy of psychological "categories," Rosenhan cites eminent contradictory reports from defendant sanity the of a psychiatrists on in a murder trial. "More generally," he goes on to say, “there are a great deal of conflicting data on the reliability, utility, and meaning of such terms as sanity, illness, and mental insanity, schizophrenia." To lest his hypothesis that “the sane cannot be distinguished from the insane in psychiatric hospitals," Rosenhan trained who gained “sane pseudo-patients" admittance to psychiatric hospitals by complaining of symptoms of auditory hallucinations. The words they claimed to have heard were “empty, hollow and thud," symptoms that supposedly arise from a feeling of meaningless in one’s life or existential psychosis. False identities The pseudo-patients, who in actuality consisted ol a psychology graduate student, three psychologists, a pediatrician, a painter, and a housewife, talsilred then names and vocations. Aside from these alterations, all other discussions of their accurate. histories were personal I urlhermore. upon admission to the psychiatric ward, all the alleged symptoms disappeared and the "pseudo-patient" carried on normally aside from some mild nervousness and anxiety related to being in a novel situation. In fact, reports Rosenhan. all of them were apprehensive of being discovered as frauds and none really believed they would be so easily admitted. Although the pseudo-patients' behavior from lira! point on was "normal,” none of them were suspected of deceiplion by the staff. Only the other patients caught on. During the first three hospitalizations, 35 out of I IK patients in the ward confronted .. them with accusations such as: "You’re crazy, you’re a journalist or a professor. You’re checking up on the hospital.” not Note-taking Careful notes were openly kept by the pseudo-patients. Initially, they went to great lengths to conceal this activity, but soon realized that no one took notice or cared. Records of nurses’ responses to the behavior of three of the writing pseudo-patients indicates that it was seen as one aspect of their pathological This lends credence to behavior. Rosenhan’s point that “the facts of the case were unintentionally distorted by the staff to achieve consistency with a popular theory of the dynamics of a schizophrenicreaction. ’’ Further support is found in one psychiatrist’s case summary prepared after the patient’s release. He ascribes “affective instability” to the patient's personal relationships, evidenced hy his childhood ambivalence toward his parents, as well as to control “attempts presumed emotionality with his wife.” In general, Rosenhan determines that “diagnoses were in no way affected by the relative health of the circumstances of a pseudo-patient's life.” On the contrary, his findings are that “the perception of his circumstances was shaped entirely by the diagnosis.” ‘Staff cages' Many pseudo-patients shared common observations. They all found that staff and patients are strictly segregated. Attendants spent an average of 11.3 percent of the day outside the “staff cage.” Daytime nurses, late afternoon and evening nurses, and physicians emerged from the cage an average of 11.5 times per shift. 9.4 times, and 6.7 times per day, respectively. ‘Those with the most power have the least to do with patients, and those with the least power are most involved With them. Rosenhan observed. In fact, it is his beliel that even an increase in staff would not provide a corresponding increase in patient care, but rather a greater amount of record-keeping and book work. Why is patient contact not a significant priority? Not because of fiscal pressures, asserts Rosenhan, but rather because of avoidance and depersonalization. Invisibility Powerlessness was reported to be depersonalization and overwhelming, the created a feeling among all pseudo-patients that they were invisible, “or at least unworthy of account.” In one instance, a nurse unbuttoned her uniform to adjust her brassiere in the middle of a men's ward. Her unseducltve manner ot feelings patients' enhanced the alienation and invisibility. An instance of depersonalization is found in the following encounter: A pseudo-patient asks, "Pardon me, Dr. X. Could you tell me when I am eligible for physician The privileges'’" grounds answers: “Good morning, Dave. How are you today’" and moves off without waiting for a response. One source of depersonalization, which Rosen han considers to be "countertherapeutic." is the attitude of both the general public, and specialists in the field toward the mentally ill. Fear, distrust and frightening expectations, combined with benevolent intentions. characterize these attitudes. “How many patients might be ‘sane’ outside the psychiatric hospital." he asks, “but seem insane in it because they are responding to a bizarre setting" and the self-fulfilling prophecy of their diagnostic label. Alternative As an alternative. Rosenhan suggests “focus on specific problems and behaviors" and a movement away from psychiatric labels, which he says are “in the minds of the observers and not valid summaries of characteristics displayed by the observed. Since the publication of Rosenhan's research, a volley of criticisms and rebuttals have followed. Bernard Weinef from the Department of UCLA argued that at Psychology not diagnoses qualitatively are psychiatric different from other medical diagnoses, thus justifying the conclusions of the the diagnosed who psychiatrists the of The behavior pseudo-patients. diagnosticians is quite rational, he states, in view of the basic doctrines of psychiatry, the treatment of schizophrenic and patients that has shown to be successful in the past. 'Logic, in remission' Robert L. Spitzer of the New York Slate Department "of Mental Hygiene accuses Rosenhan of “logic, in remission and-claims that his study is “pseudoscience presented as science." The issue of “sanity' vs. insanity" is purely legal, he points out. and totally irrelevant to the question ot whether psychiatric diagnoses are “only in the minds of the observers.” Spitzer also attacks Rosenhan lor Ills misrepresentation of the pseudo-patients discharge diagnoses. “In remission is a category seldom if ever used, according to Spitzer’s sample of 12 hospitals, and when used, means that the patient is recovered or no longer ill. Thus Rosenhan's implication that the patient, when released, was still not considered sane, is unwarranted. Sidney Crown of the London Hospital attacks both Rosenhan's methodology and the logic of his conclusions. Nevertheless he credits Rosenhan with directing professionals to take a cold, hard look at the current situation. “Diagnostic errors will decrease,” says Crown, “as criteria for schizophrenia become more Clearly defined and universally accepted.” Ethics Crown questions the ethics of research such as Rosenhan's, which depend upon lying and decepjion, because of the repercussions it might have upon future research. Crown states that “in spite of the method's crudity and the dogmatic conclusion’s lack of justification, he makes an important point concerning the way psychiatrists diagnose as well as the ongoing and continuous assessment of or lack of it.” patients of Rosenhan’s critique Another in the October appearing investigation, issue of the Journal of Abnormal Psychology, is authored by Theodore Millon of the University of Illinois’ Medical Center, Once again the methodology of the original investigation comes under attack, as well as Rosenhan’s proposed solution to the problem. While agreeing with the desire for explicit criteria, the suggestion that “hallucinating" as a label is more specific and tangible than such conceptually hazy terms schizophrenia is deemed as inevitably and niave philosophically - misguiding Response Rosenhan replies to the above criticisms in the same issue ol the Journal While that his original position admitting concerning the use of symptom diagnoses rather than syndrome diagnoses was too strong, he maintains that traditional psychiatric syndrome diagnoses are not apd rest on consensus carefully rather than empirical fact. For example, he points out the recent by the American Psychiatricaction Association to dismiss homosexuality from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. “Changes in informed public attitudes toward homosexuality have brought about corresponding changes in the psychiatric perception of it.” Rosenhan claims this as further evidence that psychiatric diagnoses are affected by contexts, and even “the context created hy psychiatric hospital colors our the perception of psychiatric patients.” �Not likely Film documentary The Unquiet Death of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg a documentary about the conviction and execution of a couple convicted of treason during , the McCarthy era in the early 19S0’s, will be presented Wednesday by the Speaker's Buearu, UUAB, and American Studies.

SUNY buys up own bonds to raise money Proposals for a health fee A mandatory health fee at State University suggested by schools has been (SUNY) administrators in Albany as a means ot reducing the overall SUNY budget. The Spectrum has learned. In an internal SUNY memo. Associate University Dean for Student Affairs Ronald M. Bristow recommended a number of steps individual campuses should follow regarding health services. He asked that each campus make up a health care delivery plan that would include “emergency first aid and administrative services," a play for paying the cost. He said $5 per “annual average head count” should be the most the state pays to fund health care. Individual campuses would then be required to pick up the tab for any additional costs. (SUNN) At a special meeting Thursday, the State University (SUNY) Board of Trustees voted to approve a request to use $7,325 million of SUNY’s $43 million endowment fund to buy up its own short-term notes, which were due on Friday, and to convert the debt to long-term Paying customers bonds. Bristow’s report also suggested that each campus SUNY Executive Vice Chancellor James F. Kelly said Monday be authorized to levy a health fee and a schedule of night that, if endowment funds are used, the bonds purchased ‘‘will fees for certain health-related services. In addition, a most likely bear the going interest rate” of about ten percent. "utilize" funds from groups such as Under the plan, the interest would return to the University.

Special investment lawyers hired by the University separating program into the of the construction was possibility purely internal, and the amount saved memo looking from the HFA entirely and creating a separate agency to market SUNY would hover around S I '/i million, to be distributed throughout the SUNY system. loans. SUNY bonds are considered among the most attractive of those marketed by HFA because the University takes in more than one and a half times as much revenue as is necessary to pay off the debt service, a technical term for interest and part of the principle on its borrowings. The ratio of the $190 million income from tuition, lees, and hospital revenues to the $112 million in debt service is about 1.6 to 1. - Not the answer Is probably not Kelly said last Monday night that a separate agency problems, because creating a new agency would by spreading it to cover two funds at once, the old diminish the ratio bond issues in the UFA and the new ones in the independent agency. Completed SUNY buildings account lor SI.6 billion in long-teryi bonds. SUNY’s construction budget currently includes $718 million in short-term notes and authorizations. The short-term debts break down this way: S400 million in short-term notes. S200 million in authorizations being used at a clip ot SS million a month, and $118 million ($92 million in construction and the answer to SUNY’s in equipment) in authorizations for projects not yet started (which will be reviewed before money can be reallocated by the state $26 million legislature. a moral obligation agency, which borrows money for housing projects, health facilities, and SUNY buildings. It is called a UFA is moral obligation agency because, until the buildings-are built, there is nothing creditors can seize il UFA defaults. The construction itself is funded through the sale of short-term notes which arc usually due in a year or less. When these notes fall due, they are paid either by selling more notes for uncompleted buildings or bonds for completed buildings. Bonds, which are paid off over 30 years, allow SUNY or other borrowers to pay gradually. II the borrower does not pay off the bond, the lender can seize the building. The fiscal crisis in New York City and New York State has forced moral obligation authorities to offer higher and higher interest rates to attract investors. Last October, SUNY marketed tax-free notes and bonds at interest rates of between five and six percent. One year later, the rates had risen to between nine and eleven percent.

Default to cause more cuts by Paige Miller Assistant Sports Editor The Athletic Department, whose budget has already been reduced for next year, faces even further cutbacks if the State University (SUNY) makes system-wide cutbacks following a possible New York City default. However, observers feel it is too early to predict exactly what would have to be cut. “We’ve made no, gumption as to what would happen to us as an institution if New York City defaults,” said Assistant Executive Vice President Charles Fogel. “There’s too much unknown to do anything intelligent.” The part of the Athletic Department’s budget which would be directly affected by SUNY cutbacks Charles Fogel intercollegiate coaches’ salaries. The remainder of the money, for varsity teams and intramurals, comes from part of the $67 mandatory fee which all undergraduates pay to the Student Association (SA). Coaches’ salaries were tentatively eliminated from the University budget for the 1976-77 year. The lines were restored later, although no one knows from where the money will come. In the event there are University-wide cutbacks, coaches salaries’ are likely to be cut again, either partially or entirely. is the In jeopardy Eliminating coaches’ salaries could have repercussions throughout the entire School of Health Education. Most coaches also instruct Physical Education courses, and if their varsity coach wages are cut, they might seek coaching jobs elsewhere. “In a real financial crisis, they [the coaches] could very well be in jeopardy again,” said School of Health Education Dean Harry Fritz. “In the event of drastic cuts, everybody would start from zero. They would have to fend and scratch for themselves,” Fritz said. Fritz also pointed out that “there would be a decline in the offering of courses. This would mean fewer students, and therefore proportionally less funds.” Pressure groups SA has also come under pressure to reduce the Athletic budget from many campus groups who claim a disporportionate amount of mandatory fee money goes to only a small number of athletes. This pressure has already caused a gradual reduction in SA’s allotment to athletics and combined with a drop in enrollment, could cause even further cutbacks in the Department. “1 would hate to think what would happen then,” said Bill Monkarsh, baseball coach and director of Intramurals and Recreation. The intramural program, however, has received wide support among the student body. “This is a program which is beneficial to all students,” Monkarsh said. “This is the type of program which needs to be expanded, not cut back.” Pressure groups SA has also come under pressure to reduce the Athletic budget from many campus groups who claim a disporportionate amount of mandatory fee money goes to only a small number of athletes.

I '■ - • T » , City Editor The impending default of New York City, which is expected to have severe effects on New York State, is also creating problems in the city of Buffalo’s municipal bond market. Borrowing money to meet Buffalo’s expenses has become increasingly difficult in recent weeks, as investors have been very reluctant to put their money in municipal bondi. A recent crisis was averted only when the city was able to finance a complex loan from a group of local banks and insurance companies. It was also necessary to use some funds from the city’s cash reserves, and to cancel some $8.9 million worth of projects. Additionally, Buffalo had fo pay record interest rates of 9.5 to 10.5 percent on the notes sold in that package. In the weeks since then, the city has had to enter the unsettled bond market a number of times in order to meet daily expenses. ‘Fragile thing’ James W. Burns, Buffalo’s Commissioner of Administration and Finance, said, “The municipal bond market is the most ephemeral and fragile thing in tjie world,” and decisions made by investors in the market are often based on psychology and irituitioh. It is taken for granted by people inside and outside the financial world that the primary cause of Buffalo’s borrowing problems is New York City’s fiscal crisis. New York’s inability to keep its head above water for very long these days, and the fact that it is desperately in need of federal aid to avoid default, has caused investors to look doubtfully upon municipal bonds. Meanwhile, Buffalo’s effective borrowing capacity has diminished by two-thirds over the last five years, and the city is fast approaching its constitutional debt limit. Demolition and decay Because it is based on property values, the constitutional debt limit itself has been declining because of demolition, decay and the arson which is plaguing the inner city. As the city approaches its debt limit, it will become harder to sell its bonds, and therefore it will have to pay higher interest rates, which will only drive it deeper into debt. Another problem Buffalo faces is the loss of some property revenues. The city had received special permission from the State Legislature to collect these taxes for the last two years, but the State’s voters recently rejected an amendment which would have authorized its continuation. All Buffalo can do, at least for the present, is hope that the situation will improve, and that interest rates will go down. “What’s happening now is that the market is in paralysis.” Burns said. Buffalo’s next move, then, will depend upon what happens to New York, and the bond market’s response. /}/ /uw- O' wtr~. pnMIwAwfftkf, f Aav<~ (irttfrfCn. listnd Recreation.

The Spectrum . Page three �Big-time The sports watchdogs are hacking down misconduct by Cynthia Crossen Special to The Spectrum The watchdog of athletics, the National Collegiate Athletic Association uncovered has (NCAA), “flagrant” violations of its rules in recent months and basketball programs are the number one offenders. At least five schools were investigated or put on probation early this summer because of their high-powered basketball recruiting programs. Most of the rule breaking concerned recruitment practices by college athletic departments anxious to get the best new basketball players by “loaning” them money or favors. Clemson University in South Carolina was sentenced to three years on NCAA probation because the former coach, Tates Locke, offered some extra favors to student athletes. Locke admitted loaning money to several Clemson students and suggesting that he would forget it if the loan was not repaid. Locke was also charged with offering to purchase a house for the mother of a prospective student athlete and to pay all (CPS) - big-time utility bills for the home during her son’s enrollment at the The University. prospective student was identified by the school’s legal counsel as hich school basketball star Moses Malone. Restrictions Although probation may mean little more than a reprimand, it can also be accompanied by other restrictions on a school’s program. When Kentucky State University (KSU) was placed on indefinite probation in September, the NCAA also stipulated that KSU new could not offer any in scholarships grants-in-aid basketball after this fall. The coach of the highly successful team was charged with taking money for helping professional teams sign two former KSU players. The school suspended the coach for a year but the NCAA didn’t think the punishment was severe enough and put the entire program on probation. The NCAA does not verify the allegations itself. Confirmation the accused from comes suggested the as does institution punishment. But if a school doesn’t conduct a “good faith” investigation, the NCAA will not hesitate to increase the penalties. The University of Minnesota is conducting a thorough search of its basketball program after NCAA officials presented them with a list of 98 alleged instances of misconduct, mostly relating to recruitment practices. Although the specifics have not been made public, most of the infractions seem to have involved loans and favors by the coach and others to basketball players or prospective players. The University is now in the process of condemning itself by proving that about three-quarters of the allegations are true. But “the worst thing we could do would be to operate a cover-up,” said Stan Kegler, a University vice oversees who president The athletics. intercollegiate worse if the penalty would be the out that NCAA found hiding something. University was Attempted cover-up In an attempted cover-up, the basketball coach at the University Milwaukee denied of Wisconsin charge that he held illegal the - tryouts for prospective players, but little more than a month later, the NCAA put the entire athletic department on probation. The coach. Bob Gottlieb, had said he considered the infractions a slight violation of the rule.” But the NCAA did not agree and suspended the basketball players involved in the tryouts from tournament play for the rest of their college careers. The charges of misconduct by the NCAA have also uncovered an undercurrent of hostility between some of the schools and the NCAA. The president of Clemson University said that he was “totally unhappy” with the governing organization “and how out the carried they Clemson invest igation UUAB Music Committee and WBUF in Cooperation with Belle - administrators were upset over leaks in Washington, D.C. and North Carolina newspapers before Clemson had been informed of the charges. They were also unhappy with the choice of one NCAA investigator a former basketball player for a rival school. But courting the good graces of the powerful NCAA is something that universities with bog sports programs will have to continue to do. And the rule book, which already contains scores of pages of detailed rules, is growing every year. As some sports like basketball become increasingly athletic more competitive, be activities will department and scrutinized regulated carefully by the stem judges at NCAA. - Aire Presentations Proudly presents in Concert November 23 at 8:30 pm Loews Buffalo Theatre The Kinks “School Boys in Disgrace” A Theatrical Presentation Special Guests — STEVE HARLEY & COCKNEY REBEL Tickets on Sale NOW at our usually low prices $4.00 & $3.00, & $3.50 students $4.50 non students and n.o.p. available at Norton Hall, and all ticketron Outlets.

Thomas Romans, Associate Professor of Economics. ‘The after effects will be that New York City will be forced to balance its budget, and this would generally imply a cutback in the services the city renders, and an increase in taxes.” Marjorie Girth, Associate Professor of Law and Jurisprudence, agrees, although she feels the federal government snould do all it can to make the city an attractive place to live. She said this could be accomplished by improving transportation, the quality of education, and “by cleaning up the city.” Romans said federal support of cities, particularly New York City, should help end their decline and increase financial stability so that they do not “limp along” under generally poor conditions. He traced New York’s economic problems back to the exodus of the tax-paying middle classes and businesses, and the influx of poorer people who are dependent on the city’s social services. Romans also claimed local and state governments throughout the country are being forced to undertake functions of the federal government like welfare. The state generally tries to tax all persons equally according to their wealth unlike the federal government, he said. With the state and city forced by law to cover the $1.5 billion cost of welfare, and with the massive switch in population from middle to lower classes, the result is financial crisis. Handicapping factor Romans said there is no historical precedent for the default of a major city. The only previous case is the default of Detroit during the Great Depression of the 1930’s. Detroit reorganized and met its debts almost immediately. Default is simply the failure to meet a financial obligation when it is due. The difference between default and bankruptcy is that bankruptcy is a financial reorganization through the courts after an organization’s debts either exceed its assets, or the organization runs out of cash (liquidity). According to Girth, the major stumbling block for New York City’s filing bankruptcy papers is that plans for reorganization approved by a majority of the city’s creditors must be filed simultaneously. Many of New York City’s bonds are bearer bonds, that is, they are issued to no particular person and are collectible by whoever holds them, and making it virtually impossible to obtain approval for reorganization plans from the bond holders. Legislation to amend the bankruptcy codes to allow New York City to submit " approved reorganization plans is pending in Congress. Romans does not foresee severe repercussions if New York City defaults. ‘There is a belief among conservatives that the New York City financial community is omniscient in its views,” he said. Romans blasted the “sanctimonious” attitude of Treasury Secretary William Simon, the Federal Reserve Board and President Gerald Ford. He claimed that their charges of mismanagement by New York City officials, whether founded or not, do nothing to help the situation. He also views the attacks against free tuition at the City University of New York (CUNY) as a further threat to New York’s tax base, since one of the purposes of CUNY’s free tuition is to provide an advantage for the middle class to remain in the city. Redefinition of cities One alternative to the financial plight of the cities is to redefine a city’s geographic boundaries to create an area of “economic influence,” which would include people who commute to work in the city, the range of its television signal and other factors. Resistance to such plans would be strong since most suburbanites would probably not want to be considered residents of cities and be subject to further taxes. Commentary Telegram Boyer warns Ford State University (SUNY) Chancellor Ernest Boyer (SUNN) telegramed President Ford last week to warn him that the prospect of default by New York City “already has made it impossible to market top-rated university bonds.” Boyer said this “will result in needed facilities remaining half-built, cuts in student enrollment and massive layoffs of construction workers throughout the state.” The telegram, which was cosigned by Trustee Chairwoman Elisabeth Luce Moore, was accompanied by a news release listing 43 construction projects on 15 campuses across the state that would be - halted if the bonds were not sold. As estimated 5,000 construction workers would lose their jobs if SUNY cannot finish the buildings, many of which are more than half completed. Amongst the campuses most seriously affected would be Stony Brook’s Health Sciences Center (total estimated cost of $219 million),* Buffalo’s Amherst Campus ($157 million) and the State University Center at Purchase ($93 million). Cutback in education critical while military spending is up by John Butler Spectrum Staff Writer The federal budget for the 1975 fiscal year once again calls for an increase national defense and military spending, while cutting back on expenditures in critical areas of education. The Ford administration has allocated over $95 billion or 25 percent of the annual budget towards national defense, while only $7 billion will be spent on improving education. The total amount for defense represents an increase of over $6 billion in one year which Ford says is “required to improve readiness of our armed forces and to build up levels of essential equipment and supplies.” This is done, he believes, “in support of our efforts to build an enduring structure of peace in the it’ GET Rl Alft TO SKI f/»n Study in Israel State services. 1' .

Page five �The Who, The Who By Numbers (MCA Records) Midway through one of Pete Townshend’s lead guitar solos you find you’re getting up for a beer, and when you return, you somehow don’t regret having missed the rest of the song. Then you hear Roger Daltrey’s vibrant tenor strike a few notes reminiscent of Tommy or Who's Next? and in your mind you hum the rest of that song, oblivious to what’s coming out of the speakers. That is the only way to describe the absolute mediocrity of this album. The music isn’t bad music the Who are not capable of that. However, there is not one memorable song on any of the ten tracks on the album. It seems as though the Who, perhaps pressed for time and forced to get out an album, hurriedly released this anthology of unfinished — tunes and unpalatable messages. The album opens with “Slip Kid,” a good enough rock roll raunch with fine vocal harmonies and a driving ’n slips. guitar. After “Slip Kid” the album does just that No kidding. There is a bit of comic relief in this tragedy with the song “Squeeze Box,” supposedly about an (“Momma’s got a squeeze box, Daddy never accordion sleeps at night”). Again, hope is rekindled with “Imagine A Man,” in which Daltrey gently caresses the lyrics which strain to have some coherent meaning. Despite his - - attempts, the song falls flat with a terribly aggravating and awkward middle eight, a five-note scale written in about five minutes. Again, a half-finished song. Side two offers an unimpressive track, “Successive Story” written by bassist John Entwhistle, which has a Rolling Stones type riff and wholly unintelligible lyrics. The weak message “stay young and stay high” is about the strongest statement on the album, conveyed in the occasionally moving “They Are All In Love.” Townshend Red tries on the costume of a simple balladeer in “Bluesyrup He spreads the tight. is a the fit little Grey” and and a bit too thick, and when he offers us the half-hearted confession, “I love every minute of the day,” one gets the feeling he wrote the song for a TV commercial for a do tampon.

After going as far as she could in I he Supremes, Diana left the group in 1970 to pursue a solo career. Her solo records sold in “supreme” style and her concert performances were stellar. To further expand her talens, she got into movies. In 1972, Diana starred in the modern classic l.udy Sings The Hines and now in 1975 we’re entertained with Mahnv""' Page six . The Spectrum . Monday, 17 November 1975 Though Lady Ross only exercizes her vocal chords lor one song in Mahogany ; the score, produced and arranged by Motown’s own Michael Masser. leaves nothing to be desired. The music is simply beautiful. The theme song, “Do You Know Where You’re Going To?”, by Diana compares with the best of her repertoire. Her voice is capable of any song, whether it be a slow MOR ballad, a hard-rocker, you name it, and making it work. She might very well be the greatest female singer we’ve ever known Her potential is limitless and talents astronomical. Michael Masser, in the film’s score, created the perfect theme for a love story, which is basically what Mahogany is. The melodies and arrangements reflect the theme and re-inforce its message. The orchestration by Masser and Gil Askey is breathtaking. There are really no negatives about Mahagony. Mahogany is not only the name of a brilliant new movie; it’s also the title of a masterful score. -Steven Brief! �Our Weekly Reader Janet Hitchman, Such a Strange Lady A Biography of Dorothy L. Sayers Harper & Row, (hardcover, S8.9 5) For a book of only 174 pages and no index, Such a Strange Lady has been receiving quite a lot of critical attention. Recently, : the New York Times called it a “marvelously good read.” This is not difficult to understand, considering the revival of interest in Lord Peter Wimsey and his creator, Dorothy L. Sayers. The Wimsey craze can be accounted for the by successful BBC dramatizations that were recently popular on educational American TV. But how ' many people generally read a detective novel and find themselves consumed with curiosity about its author? And yet this has been the case for Dorothy L. Sayers. The novels have always found sufficient readers to delight in their rampant snobbery, specious pseudo-satire, and esoteric banality; there will always be readers willing to return to the books for their brilliantly eccentric plotting, and highly imaginative and comic-grotesque murder conceits. Yet truly, the reason people are interested in Dorothy L. Sayers is not because of the Wimsey revival, or a sense of curiosity about the peculiarities of style and taste in the author of such books, but because she is not a man and writes detective novels. There are some people who would argue that this is sufficient reason to be interested in Sayers. After all, the detective field has been cluttered with male writers and successful female novelists who are allowed to publish - let alone become popular are quite rare. (Similar arguments have been rMde about Leni, Eva, and Indira.) So if you would be interested in Sayers because of the orientation of her genitalia and her occupation, or better, the combination of the two, then you will find this book “a marvelously the biography about the author of the detective novels. I considered conducting an imaginary interview with Janet Hitchman. 1 would have asked her why, when she had no access to Sayer’s most personal papers, no assistance from family, close friends, or executors, did she decide to write the book. But I knew she would answer that it was only an “introduction” in lieu of a more substantive work which will be written in the future. I would have asked her how she could be so absurdly prissy as to write: “For most girls the early teens are restless times. Things are happening which are difficult to understand... (p.lll) and yet, several pages later to make quick, shocking transitions from: “It was as if she were saying, I must love Christ, for there is no one else,’” to “Later on she was to renew her friendships with some of her . . . Oxford contemporaries,” to but in spite of her masculine style of dress, which became more pronounced as she grew older, there is no evidence that she was ever in love with a woman." (P 25) Ms. Hitchman would probably answer that I simply could not understand these things, or that “ me. I they were not important to would ask her why so much of the book seems devoted to descriptions Hitchman’s and impressions of the sights, smells, and sounds that Dorothy L. Sayers might have perceived, but which Hitchman assuredly did experience in her attempts to walk in the “footsteps of the great.” I would implore here to explain why so many passages seem to sound like this one: of this!

Also, she had to deal with the awkward fact that Sayers gave up writing the Wimsey books about mid-way in her career in children’s radio life of Christ and controversial translation of order to write plays about the a Dante in contemporary (1940’s British) idiom. Even the supposedly fniitful fact that Ms. Sayers had a child out-of-wedlock was spoiled by the fact that she really never loved the little bugger. But I really wanted to conduct my imaginary new journalistic with interview Lord Peter Wimsey. I would visit him at his flat at 110A Piccadilly, W.; I would be met at the door by Bunter, his loyal and invaluable and J ee ves-like valet administrative assistant; Wimsey, now doubt, would be perusing some rare fourteenth century manuscript in Justinian, while old priceless sipping some Cockburn ’80 port from a crystal the long-necked glass with decanter beside him His purple silk pajamas would be impeccable; so too would be his dashing peacock-embroidered dressing we would his collection of first editions, Sevres vases with bronze chrysanthemums, antique his furniture.

Vive New York As President Ford wraps up a three-day summit conference in Paris on the world economy, the economy of his own country 4000 miles away continues to crumble. New York City has but 14 days left to avert default and as serious as the repercussions would be in that event, few people can argue that his adamant refusal to allow the federal government to step in has not already taken its toll. The City of Yonkers, for example, situated in the th'rd wealthiest county in the country, was saved from default at the eleventh hour Friday when the New York State legislature came up with the cash to pay that city's debts. Yonkers may be only several miles outside of New York City, but the problem hits evens closer to home. Buffalo is first beginning to realize, as the City fathers helplessly watch its borrowing capacity go down the drain, that its own municipal bond market is not immune from the effect of an impending default by big brother New York. Ford said late last week that he was "encouraged" by the progress Mayor Beame and Governor Carey were making, but that his position had not changed. Perhaps if New York City decided to call itself Vietnam, U.S.A. or Chile, U.S.A., the President would be more generous. Ford's arrogant attitude towards New York is like that of an angry father punishing his wayward child. But what the child needs is guidance, not punishment. Ford's political games have forced Gov. Carey to make complex provisions for debt reorganization that could do as much harm as good. A proposed $850 million tax increase package for a city and state that are already the most heavily taxed in the nation might serve to accelerate the flight of industry, eroding even further New York's diminishing tax base. Carey also recommended cuts of $500 million in medicaid, a move that would hurt one of the neediest sectors of our society, and a three year moratorium on paying the principal of $1.6 billion in New York City bonds coming due between now and June 30, a serious blow to the many smalltime investors who have thousands of dollars of their savings tied up in bonds. Federal assistance at this time would enable New York City to convert its short-term bonds into long term bonds. Such backing would restore the confidence of investors in New York, as well as cities like Buffalo, and meanwhile, provide the "Big Apple" enough time to thoroughly reassess its situation. In the long run, a New York City default could lead to a default by New York State and its consequences, hasten urban decay in this country and undermine the confidence of the rest of the world. In the short run, eight million people who have already suffered cuts in essential services such as police, fire, health sanitation, welfare and education can look forward to more lay-offs, to more reductions. This year. President Ford bulldozed a $95 billion defense budget through Congress. The United States can probably blow up the world ten times over, yet its government apparently couldn't care less about the people its vast stockpile of armaments is supposed to protect. It's not too late for Ford to change his mind and help bail out the people of New York City. He is after all supposed to serve the people of this country first! ... .. - ' ,, , , . , , - — g/iamp ... ... ... Equality first To the Editor I would like to thank Mr. Thiessen for his letter of November 12 accusing Women Studies College of wanting more equality than men. His poorly stated arguments affirmed my belief that men should be kept out of those five classes. Let’s examine his The Spectrum reasons.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief. Page eight. The Spectrum Monday, 17 November 1975 . First, I would like to suggest that Mr. Thiessen become acquainted with the issues he raises. His reference to an “instructor” not having “control of the class” as one of WSC’s arguments for keeping men out, is an obvious lack of comprehension of the nature of those classes. The classes are run on a collective basis with two or three “initiators.” The role of initiators is to keep the discussion moving, to raise questions, and to explain the policies of the College, not to instruct or maintain control. I realize this is a hard concept to grasp. Since the classes are run on a collective basis where women can collectively learn about their histories, bodies, health care, other cultures, other oppressed groups, the nature of our social oppression, and strategies of alleviating ourselves of it, etc., the presence of men would create an unwanted power structure in the group and thus destroy the dynamics of the class. If men, as Mr. Thiessen alleges, are interested in the material of the course and in learning about women, there are 25 other courses touching upon the same issues. Why is there a minimal enrollment of men in those courses? Second and third, women, in general, have trouble discussing problems with anyone since in many cases they have not been responded to and have been forced to internalize those problems. For those whose problems are connected to men, it is hard to relate them to other men. I think it’s very presumptuous on Mr. Thiessen’s part to assume that women do not have experiences which are beyond men’s comprehension. The reverse also holds true I’m sure. This lack of empathy is an offshoot of the different social conditions _we live under and not, 1 repeat not, because women feel “most men are sadistical animals at heart” who “enjoy killing.” Who could possibly belive such crap! Fourth, our courses are not unlawfully discriminating. The administration obviously knows that or they wouldn’t have insisted on the omission of the word “unlawful” from the WSC charter. We’ve spoken to many lawyers who maintain that fact. Mr. Thiessen shows no comprehension of the concept of “affirmative action” which I feel is too lengthy and repetitious a concept to go into here. In conclusion, it is your arguments, Mr. Thiessen that are weak. You should examine the privilege you have over women of your race and class and then tell us we’re oppressing you. First give us equality, then worry about the rest! Monica Neuwirt A student in WSC 360 �New minority Never say die To the Editor To the Editor Bravo! I am writing in support of Mr. Thiessen’s letter in the November 12 issue of The Spectrum entitled “Women More Equal?” It seems that with all of the special job privileges, organizations and opportunities, educational courses designed specifically for so-called "minority” groups, there is a new "minority” forming: The White Anglo-Saxon Male. Thomas C Hafchch Bureaucratic bungling To the Editor jin There was once a time when the feeling on this campus was one of energy, experimentation, daring in a University atmosphere, dynamic in education. This energy bore results that did not come easy: students wanted an alternative education system that would oppose the restrictive, structured education offered by the administration, and the Colleges were born; they wanted a channel in which an individual could further become all that he/she was capable of being, and the “special major” was introduced. Way back when students wanted unions, they were at first told NO. You are here solely to learn. Living and learning are two different things. Well, now there are unions, filled with all kinds of things beneficial to students, that students want, that do not pertain only to their academic education. For today living is an education too, equal to any academic enterprise in which one may participate at the University trying to complete the requirements to be accepted to the Physical I ducation Department I went to see an adviser in the P I Department to ensure that I took the right courses in the spring I he other day I got the news letter from the PT Department. Part of the news letter said that “any student who did not pre-register for courses at the undergraduate meeting on October 2 1, please see Dr. Baker as soon as possible." I did not attend the meeting so I went to see Dr. Baker. I told him that I saw an adviser and that we had worked out the courses I needed for spring. Dr. Baker asked me for the courses. I told him that my adviser had them and there was no need to carry them around with me until pre-registration. He told me to “get my act together" before I came to see him. Me also said I could not see him that day and he would be out the rest of the week. He told me I could see him Monday, the day pre-registration starts for the whole University. There are three questions 1 have after getting the I class. He refused to back down, and won Coop, our away took They student u run-around: What good are advisers if all you have to do ( I is go see Dr. Baker anyway? (2) What is the job of the chairman of the department to advise all students or to delegate to other personnel in the this responsibility department? ,..,.,,,13) Why .is it that the advisers tell you that a course is all right to take and then you see Dr Baker, and he tells you that the course is wrong or of no use to you? I have one thing to say to the Physical Id neat ion Department; HOW ABOUT (till INC i YOUR ACT TOGhTHhR! And that is how/why the Record Coop was born. And why wc must fight again for its rebirth. Periodically students in this country realize they have power, and on occasion have fought tor ideas, ideals. They have expressed anger at this country’s brutality and atrocities, and have tried to effect change young, I remember a story happening in the South, when a black man chose to become a student, to pursue his education I remember him being shot once, attempting to attend When .1 was very are scratched from the Colleges disappear or become puppet-shadows with Ketter at the strings, or before before elective as computer, those courses strings are cut?

If we stand by then we all stand together, and are guilty of the consequences., If we stand by, then our voices will finally be silenced, and there will one day be comparisons between the silent students of the fifties and those silent of the seventies. Those students of the fifties sat and watched the U S. government pulverize a tiny country off the map while ultimately slipping a full-scale unannounced war under their noses, and now must live with their silence. 1 wonder what we will have slipped under our noses Shall we do something effective, shall we make our anger known, shall w eget it together']'] Or will we sit back, throw snowballs, and be the ones who have forgotten.

Due to its policy of confidentiality, the author, a staff member of Sunshine House, felt that its services could most accurately be portrayed in this luck and said goodbye. 10:45 p.m. Again the phone “Hello, Sunshine House.” For the next 10 minutes all I heard was faint sobbing. Then she manner. spoke. reflect actual 10 p.m. I arrived at Sunshine House to take over for the operator who was completing his shift. Upon entering the House, every operator immediately begins briefing himself on all the latest information. I checked over the client drug information, information, and the many ongoing projects within the House. I noted that next week a group of our staff would be speaking at a local high school on drug abuse and in two weeks, a pair of selected staff members would attend a state-wide Hotline this Studying Conference. — to information added the information that we exchanged at general the bi-weekly House meetings where all relevant topics discussed more specifically and at greater length. The phones are are quiet. Birth control I was working my shift alone. Usually there are two operators on duty. We’re completely student-run and operated and our staff covers a 24-hour day, a seven-day a week period. 10;21 I had just p.m. — completed examining a reprinted article entitled “High Stepping on 1 said. The caller was a young woman seeking general rang. “Please help me, please, I’ve just been raped.” by Paul Taublleb Spectrum Staff Writer LSD” when the phone rang. “Hello, Sunshine House,” - information on birth control. Learning this type of information is an integral part of Sunshine House’s extensive training program. I explained the various methods of birth contro* available, such as the diaphragm, IUD, and Pill, among others. It is the policy of Sunshine House, in all calls, to inform the client of all available information and then let the client make his or her own decision. Rape counselling We discussed the advantages and disadvantages of all methods, such as the benefits of the Pill weighed against its many dangers. 1 also explained that she could receive personalized attention at the University’s Birth Control Clinic. Sunshine House’s referral service suggests various agencies specifically equipped and designed Outreach team The cackle in her voice reflected a deep pain of horror and anguish. My first concern was her physical condition. Though she was in pain, apparently she wasn’t seriously hurt. Immediately after receiving the call and assessing the situation, I contacted Sunshine House’s Rape Outreach Team. All members of Sunshine House receive special training for rape crises. However, certain individuals are specially available to handle rape calls. This team is composed of individuals who have both extensive training and experience in rape counseling, coupled with a dedicated attitude towards helping women who’ve been raped. Within a few minutes the Outreach Team was assembled and rushing towards a phone booth in downtown Buffalo to help the woman who had been assaulted and violated, and who now stood alone and scared, crying in a phone booth. The Outreach Team would deal with her emotional crises, administer preliminary first aid and to the accompany her hospital if she was seriously injured or if she wanted to report the crime and press charges. hello, you know man, I’m OK and all, jus’ saying’ hello. Yeah, jus’ hello.” The words came out slowly and blurred. His voice staggered like a Chippewa St. drunk. At first he wouldn’t tell me what he’d eaten. He thought it was a down, he said. He had a few left so I asked him for a complete description. Aided with the description I began searching our copy of the Physicians Desk Reference (PDR) which lists all pharmacuetical drugs along with a description precise of their probable effects, normal dosages, dangers, medical uses, side effects, etc. He’s eaten four 10 mg. of As the Team hurried downtown I continued talking to the girl, encouraging her to ventilate her feelings, while help was on the way. The Outreach Team arrived and finally Meyer her to accompanied Hospital where she saw a doctor. 11:20 p.m. Things were quiet for a while so I practiced my skills on the emergency medical - equipment. Periodically reviewing emergency skills is part of each staff members’ responsibility and is taken seriously at Sunshine House. Once you become involved in a crisis situation, you need to work quickly and efficiently. Remaining sharp on technical skills is a vital part of the role of a Sunshine House operator. Real man “Hello, Sunshine House.” “High man, real high man, what’s happening? Everything is smooth around here. Definitively smooth really. Jus’ callin’ to say ... .. Maybe tomorrow he’ll wake up feeling a little crusty and raunchy, vaguely remembering a phone call to somewhere or other, not exactly sure where or why. Almost gave up 12:43 The phone began ringing again. As I moved towards answering the phone, I hesitated for a moment, flashing on that severing click that had culminated the last phone call. “Hello, Sunshine House,” I — said. “Is there somebody I can talk to for a while. I feel like giving Sinequin, a strong tranquilizer used for treating psychiatric patients. He’d also had a few beers. up.” “Sure, you can talk to me,” I replied. No threat “Will anybody know that I’m talking to you? I mean, will you tell anybody, will anybody find The amount of Sinequin he’s taken probably did not pose a serious health threat. However the PDR stated that Sinequin’s effect (and dangers) increased multifold when used in conjunction with out?” No, I told her. “All calls to Sunshine House are completely confidential. That is the foundation of all our policies.” The client was a woman named Lisa. Lisa is 26 and a secretary in Buffalo. The first thing she told me was that she felt life probably wasn’t worth living, and that alcohol. Every person’s body reacts differently to drugs and alcohol. He didn’t remember how many beers he had or if he had a few mixed drinks also. He just knew he felt good, but a little worried about being so spaced out and tired. 1 offered to come to where he was. He refused. I explained to him that he was welcome to come to the House. He refused. I explained the potential danger of his situation, pointing out the serious nature of the drugs he had taken in relation to his mental and physical health. He refused to take his own pulse, which is one of the vital signs used in determining a person’s physical state. He was alone, his roommate was gone for the weekend. He wouldn’t reveal anything about himself. Never know I Emergency skills where he was. Then suddenly, he was gone, the CLICK telephone mute, blank and dead. We’ll never know . told him to go over to a friend’s house. He refused. His speech was steadily becoming more garbled and incoherent. I tried to get him to stand up and walk around, to do anything. I yelled at him to talk about his his girlfriend, mother, or His anything. efforts at conversation were disjointed and had reached my cars like oozing quicksand. I was frantic, trying everything, yet sensing that he was rapidly fading. My counseling skills seemed irreverent as I called out to him to hang on, to tell me everything seemed pointless and worthless. At Sunshine House we to get people to ‘own their feelings,’ not to blame things ‘out there’; what was she that feeling caused this ambivalence? A person in crisis loses touch with their own feelings. At Sunshine House, we try to get the person back in touch with their own feelings. We do this by very carefully listening to what the client is saying and then reflecting it back to them in a positive This non-judgemental way. process is called Active Listening. People will really understand their feelings (own their own feelings) if somebody “Active Listens” to what they’re saying. Once you’ve gotten in touch with your own feelings, things begin to clear up and you’re able to move in a cognizant way towards a solution. Lisa felt estranged from life because of frustration and loneliness. Without realizing this, she blamed the world for her problems, owning them not herself. We spoke at length about her feelings; she was frustrated because she had aspired to a greater career than a secretary and she was lonely, being new in a big feel our role is city, living with only her elderly mother. I only told her what had been implicit in the things she told me. This permitted her both an outlet for venting her pent-up emotions and provided a means for her to understand the situation that was causing her to feel distraught. The call moved from Active Listening to what is called Summarizing and Focusing as we clarified the circumstances of her situation. Then the situation was linked with the feelings she expressed, giving her a clear understanding of what she was feeling and why. For Lisa was for lonely peer-group companionship and frustrated because she was working below we potential. her Next Contracted, by setting up a series of definite steps for Lisa to take to find a solution to her problem. Lisa decided she would go back to night school and finish her degree in English which she abandoned earlier. And she was going to sign up for some art classes on the West Side to meet people her own age.

I was involved with a new Rogerian program when, once again, the phone rang. “Hello, Sunshine House.” “Yes, hello. Would you answer a question for me?” “Sure, if I can.” “I hope you can because this is important. Who was the leading scorer in the NBA last season, Bob MacAdoo or Rick really Barry?” That was easy. “McAdoo, with 34.6 points per game.” “Thanks,” he said. “I just lost 50 bucks.” 1;59 a.m. One minute more and I’d be going home. I heard a mild groan from the outside steps as the next operator prepared to enter the House and take over. As he came through the front door, his greeting was interrupted by the ring of the Sunshine House — telephone. rp) THURSDAY. Nov. 20th S.fl.

Rubin Sports Editor In this day oT ebbing morals, where pornography is easily accessible, and more and more parts ol the human body are being shown in more and more places, one ol the most recent arrivals on the scene is the parlay card. This fiendish piece oi paper is usually no larger than a dollar bill, but it could payoff hundreds of dollars. The increased availability of the parlay card in recent times has caused concern, criticism and consideration. Moralists claim that gambling is the root ol all evil, and that the parlay card is the fruit of the gambling weed. They claim that the widespread increase in pro sports belling is just another step in the decline of today's society. Other critics argue that the belling card is another ext'ention of organized crime which they tear has spread like cancer through the country. More recently, parlay cards and organized gambling have picked up support. Surprisingly enough, many legislators teel that it they legalize pro sports betting, they will hurl the bookie business which everyone believes is so prevalent, furthermore, these proponents ol belling assert that legalization will bring in sorely needed revenue to whatever group reaps the proceeds. This idea has one veiy interesting implication. If the moralists are right, then the fact that legalized belling is now a possibility implies that our governments are leading the way to moral degradation. But that's only if they're right. They are probably wrong. Kver since the days of the Roman chariot races, people have enjoyed wagering.

Without a doubt, this year’s squad will be the tallest, most experienced and strongest of Richardson’s Buffalo teams. Once again, much will depend on 6-7 sophomore center Sam Pellom. Although he was learning to play center last year (he was a forward in high school), Pellom was the Bulls’ leading rebounder and shot blocker, as well as the second highest scorer. Richardson expects Pellom to be the Bulls’ big rebounder and intimidator again this season. If the front line does its job of rebounding well, it will then be up to Buffalo’s guards to run the fast break, one of Richardson’s favorite offensive weapons. Senior guard Gary Domzalski set the school record for assists while leading the fast break a year ago. Gary also has a good outside shot. Transfer George Cooper averaged over 20 points per game at Nassau CC last year, and poses a strong challenge to mzalski for the job of quarterback. Cooper has the speed which Domzalski lacks, but doesn’t pass quite as well. Buffalo’s other guards also are good offensive players. Otis Horne averaged 17.3 points to lead the Bulls last year, and probably will be counted on again to produce points. His outside shot runs hot and cold, but when he gets hot, watch out he pumped in 38 points in one game last year. Rounding out the backcourf is Larry Jones, a sophomore. Jones has a good shooting eye, and like Horne, can penetrate well. He was leading the junior varsity in scoring when he was called up in mid-season and by the end of the year, Jones was the Bulls’ third guard. — However, Pellom will not have to carry as much of the load as he did last year, because of a vastly improved front line. The Bulls’ starting forwards last season did have enough height, but there were no adequate substitutes on the bench. That problem should be remedied this year, since four of the JC transfers are 6-6. The only returning forward is junior Mike Jones, also 6-6. Jones is a strong rebounder, but his outside shot has been inconsistent. He also doubled as Buffalo’s back-up center last year Boyd best of recruits Perhaps the best of the newcomers at forward is Wayne Boyd. After playing two years at St. John's JC (Kansas). Boyd brings an excellent outside shot and strong rebounding, as well as the ability to drive to the hoop, something Buffalo forwards lacked last year. “He’s probably our best all-around ballplayer,” Richardson said. Another forward from St. John's. Vernell Washington, a very physical ballplayer who is also an excellent jumper, will be counted on for defense and rebounding. Eric Spence, a transfer from Sheridan JC (Wyoming), is the same type of ballplayer as Washington. Either Spence or Washington can play center as well as forward. The Bulls’ other from liners include Sam Robinson, Chris Conlon and Art Garfinkle. Robinson played his junior college ball just miles away at Niagara CC. He, too. is a superb leaper, and owns a good outside shot. Conlon. who “has a lot of potential,” according to Richardson, was the Baby Bulls' leading rebounder, while Garfinkle distinguished himself primarily as a scorer with the JV last Everybody starts Richardson has a pleasant problem in deciding who will start. He has so many talented ballplayers that he predicts ten men will play regularly, a switch from previous years. “We can use one guard or three,” he said. “It doesn’t make a difference.” Richardson’s goal this season is to be invited to some sort of post-season tournament. The EC AC upstate regional tournament is not out of reach for the Bulls, who should improve on last year’s record if nothing else. Although it appears that he has put together the strongest Buffalo team in several years, Richardson also has the Bulls playing their toughest schedule ever. This year, two more Division 1 teams have been added to the schedule: Detroit (19-7 last year) and Indiana State (12 14), plus Sienna, a strong Division II squad. The unofficial season's opener is this Friday night, against the Barbados national team, but it won't be a true lest of the Bulls' strength, since the calibre of the Barbados team is unknown (although their tallest player is only 6-5). On Friday afternoon the Bulls will have their Second Annual TipolT Luncheon, held at the Statler Milton The Barbados team will be the guests of honor, and Stan Barron r f WBLN-AM will be the guest speaker.

There is a legal basis for the operation of student business ventures.

In Drucker vs. New York University, a Civil Court case in 1968, it was stated; “The student agrees to pay tuition and in consideration is granted admission which carries with it the right to attend classes and to make reasonable use of school facilities. Such use does not require separate legal authorization and is an implied part of the original statement was used to support the existence of three coffeehouses, a sandwich shop, an ice cream parlor and a record shop, all coops, on the Slate University at Stony Brook campus in 1970. More recently at Stony Brook, a cooperative food service was begun, based on a S5000 loan from the Oberlin College Student Cooperative Association in Ohio.

Asked whether or not the Financial Assembly still exists, SA Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde replied, “We’re not sure. My parlimentarian is researching it." The two Financial Assembly meetings Lalonde has attempted to call both failed to produce a quorum. “The membership has dwindled from 40 to 15,” he said. Lalonde expre.ssed dissatisfaction with the Assembly members' apparent lack of interest on several occasions. He said SA Executive Committee members are just as much at fault as the other members, and that there should be some kind of penalty for members who do not attend the body’s meetings. One more try Senate member John Seigel, who is also a member of the Financial Assembly, pleaded with Lalonde to “give it one more try.” He said he missed one of the meetings because he was not aware it was being held.

Genesee Community College awarded diplomas to six inmates at the Attica Correctional Facility. Four released inmates, not present at the September 27 ceremony, also received diplomas. Genesee has the largest inmate education program in New York State and one of the largest in the country. Speakers at the ceremony included State Correction Commissioner Benjamin Ward, Attica Superintendant Harold Smith. State Assemblyman R. Stephen Hawley, Genesee Community College President Stuart Steiner, and Valedictorian Christopher E. Lynch. Lynch, according to Steiner, gave such a “stirring speech" that copies were later reprinted for anyone who wanted them. The six inmates present at the commencement ceremony were Charles Burks, Charles Buston, DJ. Davis, James M. Latimore. Christopher E. Lynch, and Richard P. Rigwood. Successful program The inmate program, which operates with the lull support ol Superinlendant Smith and a grant from the Department ol Health Education and Welfare, is “very successful” Steiner said, It had its start in January 1973 with a handful of part-time students enrolled in six different courses. At the present. 218 full-time students are enrolled in 35 different courses, academic or career-oriented. Six inmates graduated last year which brings the total to 16. Eligibility requires inmates to have completed high school. In the event the inmate is not a high school graduate, he may lake a remedial program before entering the college program. Inmates carry a 12 or more credit course load and all credits are transferable so that if an inmate is released, he may continue his education in other schools in the SUNY system. In some cases, inmates have gone on to four-year private schools. Although tuition is the full $590 per year, the vast majority ol inmates are receiving Basic Educational Opportunity Giants. Others receive Veterans Benefits and EOF. Coops... the Coop.

Last June, a bill passed the state legislature providing for the operation of commercial businesses on state-owned land. The Amherst Campus contains 70,000 square feet of rental space for business "purposes.

Construction of buildings can only begin after the contract is signed Cinder block city Rental space in Amherst will be more expensive than in the University Plaza for example, because the buildings must be constructed in the same style as other structures, basically brick and little cinder block. Doug Cohen, SA Director of Activities and Services, said SA is pushing for the admission of students to the UBF Corp. Board of Directors for the simple reason that “students are the largest constituent body.” SA is also seeking a “guaranteed percentage of student employees in non-management positions” in future Amherst Campus stores. Cohen suggested the possibility of training programs for which management majors would receive credit ‘Coops have been suggested to the SA and a committee is looking into it,” could he continued, “but it a dangerous precedent all beneficial to students."

In addition to discussing the popular sci-fi drama, Roddenberry warned of the possible pitfalls of the future. The original cast of Star Trek will soon begin filming a wide screen movie version of the show, Roddenberry said. “The only snag left is the granting of creative control by the studio.” Roddenberry credited the fans of Star Trek with its revival, noting that Paramount Studios, which owns the creative rights, has been bombarded with mail calling for the return of Star Trek, he said. When the fans learned that the studio was planning to hire a new cast, they poured in letters objecting to the change, Roddenberry added. assured the Roddenberry NBC television audience that executives have guaranteed that if the movie is successful, Star Trek will return to television. Roddenberry criticized network executives as being short-sighted and lacking the courage to explore the medium by presenting Innovative He said the .programming. “executives” originally wanted to the female executive replace officer of the Starship, Enterprise, with a male and eliminate “the guy with the funny ears because no one will be able to identify with him.” Also, the network was going to change the original composition of the Enterprise crew, which was 50% male, 50% female. “It looks like there’s a lot of fooling around in space,” Roddenberry said. Third stage Turning to regarding the his theories medium of tele-communications and the evolution of man, Roddenberry believes we are at the beginnings of the third great evolutionary stage. The first great steps forward were the emergence of life about two billion years ago, and the emergence intelligence of self-conscious .about 1 QQ.000 years ago. The third step, according to Roddenberry, is evolving out of the increased technological development of the human race in the fields of computers, electronics, space travel and genetics. Roddenberry perceives* a near when receivers will be implanted in all people which can be tuned in to computers and give them access to all human knowledge. Roddenberry also sees future a future when all that will remain of human beings is their consciousness with no physical body of flesh and blood. Roddenberry warned of a “new life form” that is becoming more powerful at the expense of humans. This “animal” he called the “socio-organism” and used Gulf Oil, ITT and the United States as examples. Roddenberry fears for the future of individuality, stating that the highly independent strong, individual might take the role of a cancer cell in this r"* steak SBreiv Eating A Drinking Put ALL THE BEER.

Roddenberry concluded with a warning to be wary of this tele-communications explosion. “Commercial television, as it is today, is an advertising medium and the choice of what you can watch is made solely on the basis of the saleability of products,” he said. Tele-communication has the potential for any human being to have access to the sum of all human knowledge, he added. Rodden berry’s presentation was preceded by a “blooper” reel of all the funny antics and mistakes that were made on the Star Trek set.

Douglas This past Thursday witnessed the denouement of one of the longest, most illustrious judicial careers in history William 0. Douglas, a man whose personal philosophy embodied an ongoing distrust of government, was forced to step down from the nation's highest Court becauase of failing health On Monday evening Nov. 10, 1975, I was officially declared to be a racist. The United Nations, a once-proud institution, has become nothing more than a cesspool on the Hudson, in an ignominious and vicious assault on the liberation movement of a people who are not strangers to the whims of hatred and genocide. In solemn convocation a motley crew of assorted Arab oil blackmailers led by the “moderate” Sadat, fascist dictatorships exemplified by the Franco regime, bullying communist countries and assorted third world countries whose “democratic” governments have the life span of the common house fly in July, gathered together to gang rape the State of Israel on a world stage, in the sight of all, with no shame. In 30 years of existence the U.N. has not witnessed such a perfidious, odious and shameful act as that which branded Zionism as racism. Today the U.N. stands clearly, shamefully and inescapably as a defender and proponent of anti-Semitism. It has not lost any vestige, any semblance of ethics or morality it may have had left. You thought, maybe Hitler was dead? Well he lives on, in the twisted minds of men he’s only “moderately” for Jewish like Sadat genocide; Assad, Arafat, Brehznev, Franco, Indira (democracy’s gift to India) Gandhi and of course, Uganda’s butchering Bib “Dada” Idi Amin (you remember him he threw Uganda’s Asians out but - Sadly, Douglas' retirement marks the end of an era which began 36 years, 7 months ago during the Roosevelt he ain’t no racist!) Thirty years after 6 million of my people perished in the ovens of Auschwitz the world thirsts for my blood again and stokes the ovens yet again. I Jews will not again go docilely say screw you baby to the slaughter. We will not make it easy and palatable for the Arafats and Amins and those of similar diseased ilk, to take up the Nazi torch and reignite the crematoria of a generation ago. I spit on the U.N. and its damnable, excremental resolution. I scream bloody murder to the heavens in revulsion and 1 ask my fellow Jews and fair minded Christians to wake up and join the battle because battle we must. The world has thrown down the gauntlet; it has spit in the eye of the Jewish people and has said, “All people are entitled to their - liberation movements” (but the Jews). All “liberation movements” are inherently just and deserving of the support of “enlightened” people (except the liberation movement of the Jewish people). The Jewish people have been to Hell and returned. We have survived pogroms, inquisitions, “genteel” anti-semitism and the ultimate honor of the Holocaust. We will withstand this latest challenge to our survival while the Assads, Amins, Sadats, and Brehznevs go the way of the Etruscans and the Amalakites. ISRAEL LIVES! Barry Goldenherg - administration. With his departure from the bench, it is clear that the tenuous balance between the conservative Burger block and the old, liberal order which Douglas led, will A hand to bus drivers probably shift significantly. Douglas has been an outspoken To the Editor defender of First Amendment rights, seeing very little I recently (20 minutes ago) read the letter criticizing the conduct of Blue-Bird drivers. Criticism is,essential, but I think reassurance to the drivers and clarficiation to the students is required. First, this is to those people that expect a bus to stop while if is pulling away. The bus is not required to stop for you, in fact he is breaking “rules” if he does. Anyone that has ever ridden a city bus knows that it will not stop at other than designated stops. If you are not at the bus stop, on time, then it is your fault. When the driver passes you by in the loop or tunnel, don’t complain because he’s not doing you a justification for intervention government to control obscenity. The libertarian views expressed in his numerous dissents, of many disappear. Some stood which will probably alone, of the more controversial issues the Supreme Court must face in the coming months include deciding the constitutionality of the death penalty, whether favor. Students have no right to expect a driver to risk a job warning just because the student was late. Drivers do you a favor when they do stop. Secondly, the driver’s ability. On the whole, I don’t think there is much room for criticism here either. Having ridden a bus to and from class for two ' private schools may discriminate racially, whether campaign reforms recently passed by Congress are constitutional, and whether "reverse whites in discrimination" against the awarding of seniority to blacks actually exists Burger, Blackmun, Powell, and Rehnquist are all conservative Nixon appointees to the Supreme Court. With departure, it is naturally assumed that Douglas' Ford's choice will conform to that conservative mold William O. Douglas was the last link with the great changes which America witnessed in the latter part of the Roosevelt years.

The driver of bus no. 259 has a name, which is Sal Tedesco. I have been at this school one year and a half, during which time I have used Mr. Tedesco’s bus quite frequently. Out of all the drivers on that route, I have found him to be one of the most courteous, nicest drivers which I have had contact with (as opposed to “malicious intent” and the “obvious pleasure he took in his behavior”). Now for his driving. Mr. Tedesco does not crawl at a snail’s pace (as “some of our drivers do), nor does he play speed racer. I am wary of riding in the rain as I have been involved in two car accidents (I was not driving). Yet, unlike this person, I feel quite secure using Mr. Tedesco’s bus. One last note; many bus drivers devise their own schedules. They leave when they like, earlier or later. I have never had this problem with this bus driver.

I’ve seen drivers avoid an accident thanks to their experience, experience which a student who has never driven a bus with 60 students on cannot evaluate. These drivers seem to know exactly how much room they have and just how fast to go. I have found drivers very helpful. They will stop when they don’t have to, often without a “thanks” or a thought. They will overload their bus, risking a lot more than just a reprimand if discovered, just so you can make it to class. Most of the time, they will The Spectrum . Friday, 14 November 1975 To the Editor Schussmeisters Ski Club has undergone many changes this year, the biggest of which was our decision to cut all ties with Kissing Bridge Ski Area. There has been much controversy over the matter since the decision was made. If you’re such a stuffed-shirt that you’ll ski Kissing Bridge and nowhere else, then chances are the ski club doesn’t really need you. If you simply like to ski, but you don’t know what kind of a deal you’ll be getting this year, I ask that you listen to our reasons. I’ve heard too many people say “1 can’t understand why they’re not skiing Kissing Bridge; I’m not joining!” It has always been Schussmeisters policy to allow the immediate family of our members to join. Kissing Bridge would no longer allow us to do so. This would effect, in particular, married couples of which only one of the two is affiliated with the University. Bluemont Ski Area will permit us to maintain our policy concerning family members. The main conflict, however, was over price. Kissing Bridge’s original proposal was to increase our costs by 80 percent. After negotiations they came down to a 67 percent increase. Since the Ski Club’s main purpose is to provide skiing for the University community at a reasonable rate, we decided Kissing Bridge no longer met our needs. We believe that Bluemont Ski Area will meet our needs. Thus far, the proprietors have been very cooperative in working with our officers. They’re actually quite happy to receive our business. As for the area itself: Bluemont is smaller than Kissing Bridge in that there are fewer runs. The runs at Bluemont are a bit longer and steeper, though They have installed more snow-making equipment, better lighting, and a new chairlift which will accommodate more people than before. All in all, 1 believe that Schussmeisters Ski Club is still the best ski package around. I would advise any skier, no matter what his ability, to join Schussmeisters for a great deal and a great time. Karen Scholz �Our Weekly Reader I Vincent Bugliosi with Curt Gentry, Helter Skelter, Bantam, 1975 (paper) About two years ago former Yippie and current aspiring poet Ed Sanders took us inside Charlie "family" Manson's book entitled, with a Family. The Now Manson appropriately enough case prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi has given his view of the case, from a somewhat different perspective in Helter Skelter, another aptly titled book just out in paperback. (The $10.95 hardcover edition was a bestseller this time last year.) "Helter Skelter" was the title of a Beatles song Charles Manson interpreted to mean there would be a global race var which would leave him ruler of the world. Written as a loose diary of events, Helter Skelter tells of the murders of Sharon Tate and four others in the early hours of August 9, 1969 and of the seemingly-unrelated murders of Leno and Rosemary LaBianca the following night murders which sent the well-to-do of Los Angels into a frenzy. We learn what the police did to solve the murders and more importantly what they didn't do. For instance, the Tate and LaBianca detectives did not confer about — links until the LaBianca case was nearly solved on its own of a young boy (trained by TV's "Dragnet") who found a pistol in his backyard and was careful to pick it up by the barrel so as not to smudge fingerprints. When local police came to pick up the gun (later identified as one of the murder weapons) one officer obliterated every print on it by We learn handling it carelessly. The same weapon sat in the Van Nuys police department through most of the Tate investigation because the Los Angeles Police Department forgot to send a notice calling for the relatively rare weapon. (They were thorough enough however, to send the 200 other enforcement agencies.) notice to police departments and law We find out how, after massive bungling by the LARD, the case was broken when Susan Atkins got the details of her assorted murders mixed up while being questioned for an unrelated killing. Valley, away from radio Out in Death television, and for the most part newspapers Manson's peculiar theories could hit his disciples with full force His ideas: as prophesized by the Beatles' White Album, the murder of wealthy whites (believed to be killed by blacks) would precipitate a race war (which would be won by the blacks). All the whites on earth killed, except for a small band who Manson into the desert to await the outcome. Eventually the blacks realizing their incompetence would seek out Manson to run the would be followed world for them The killings of Tate and the LaBiancas were blacks (Manson muffed it) and thus set off Helter Skelter. To be on the safe side, meant to be tied to Manson and his followers equipped dune buggies with large gas tanks so they could go 1,000 miles without a refill in case of a quick conflagration. Bughosi discusses the trial both the difficulties in getting the prosecution case together and the difficulties in keeping the trial itself together In any prosecution if the district attorney (or D.A, in this case) hopes to obtain a conviction, he must present credible witnesses and convincing circumstantial evidence. While there was a profusion of the latter witnesses to mass murder in isolated places (both the Tate and LaBianca houses were some distance from other houses) are often difficult to find. The prosecution got a lucky break when ex Family member Linda Kasabian decided to (She had been along on both nights of testify murder without otherwise taking part.) Bugliosi had to convince the jury that Kasabian was somehow different from the other accused murderers that Manson masterminded the Tate murders without being present, and that the others were guilty of assistant first-degree murder as well In the middle of the trial then President Nixon declared Manson was guilty and Bugliosi had to go to elaborate lengths to prevent a mistrial. (Among other things, he taped paper over the windows of the bus carrying jurors so they wouldn't be able to see headlines on newspapers at corner newsstands.) The defendants were convicted and given the death penalty but were saved when the Supreme Court threw out the death sentence in 1971. Manson up for parole in and four others are D D » 1978 but Bugliosi doesn't think they will be on the outside for a long long time. The strength of this book is its attention to details: it provides a readable clinical account of the case. The particularly chronological effective in organizing principle talking about such is a —continued on page 8— m K f 4 � �Our Weekly Reader |{ Bugllosl himself seems to have transcended the conventional role of prosecutor (a simple-minded proponent of law 'n order at all costs) and instead restrains himself to present a more complete (and therefore sympathetic) view of Manson. We are shown a “completely institutionalized individual" who had spent more than half his life up to the time of the killings behind bars (17 out of his 33 years). Bugliosi recalls that Manson pleaded not to be released from jail when a term for auto theft ran out in 1967. Bugliosi reflects on the psychological puzzle that was Manson, speculating that Manson's father was probably a black man and that Manson was obsessed by this fact. He draws the obvious parallel to Hitler who was rumored to be obsessed with the thought of a possible Jewish ancestry and who devised elaborate racial theories to mask this fact. But it is precisely this analytical character which flaws the book. Its authoritative tone justifies some nonsense; for instance, Bugliosi relates the story of an apparent attempt to murder a prosecution witness with a hamburger laced with a fatal dose of LSD — 'Abduction based on book predating Patty by Dean — ... yet he admits a few pages later that there is no such thing as a fatal dose. In other instances, Bugliosi is weighed down by - complex chain of events Oncfinally porno —continued from page 7 the fact that he was the prosecutor. He is unwilling Manson entirely from the politics of the Counterculture, though he makes persistent and unconvincing attempts to do so. In a more lyrical book like Ed Sanders' the Family, every detail is introduced to impart a feeling for where Manson and his followers were coming from; In Heiter Skelter every detail emerges, inevitably, from the attempt to prosecute, not understand. But while Sanders is free from the socially restrictive role of a prosecuting attorney, he manages to convey in The Family a passionate something Bugliosi never hatred for Manson to separate — manages to do. And that is basically where it stands now: Bugliosi wrote the better historical account of the Manson case, but Sanders wrote the better book, —Mike McGuire * Mike McGuire Spectrum is * * * * a Contributing Editor for The Billanti Spectrum Arts Staff Far more interesting than the movie Abduction is its background.

The producers of the present film bought the book and made a porno movie out of it. But as dubious luck would have it, the Hearst case developed and the moviemakers decided to cash in on it.

Her kidnappers are two male revolutionaries, who take her to a house containing two female revolutionaries (one of the women speaks in such a deadpan that one is surprised Patricia doesn't fall asleep during her revolutionary raps).

The problems were two fold and insurmountable: the unsuitability of the theater and the steadfast pointlessness of the script.

About three centuries later, Frank Dunlop and Jim Dale singled out the adventures of the endearing con artist Scapin as the perfect raw material for Dunlop's London based Young Vic Company to tackle Their modern adaptation was renamed Scapinof and rearranged to include assorted songs, one-liners, and swings from the ceiling A huge success both in London and in New York (Clive Barnes unequivocally stated that "if you miss it, you will be crazy"), their harassed lovers, stingy fathers, and rubber sausages were catapulted onto the Studio Arena stage last Friday night for the first time in a month of - — performances. Scapino!, like Moliere's Scapm, is a manipulator, a puppeteer who pulls the strings that make the other characters jump, a "faithful servant" whose biggest reward for helping his masters out of their numerous predicaments is the pleasure of watching them make fools or just as our reward is heroes out of themselves according to his whim the delight of observing the true virtuoso at work He plays many roles, not the least of which is that of the craftsman who shapes his fellows' destinies; Moliere, whose first love was acting, created the part for himself, and his analogy is perfect. John Chrsitopher Jones, Studio Arena's Scapino, lacks the comic virtuosity his role demands; he is often overshadowed by such players as Tom Mardirosian, who registers indignation by causing his cheeks, jowls, and nostrils to puff like three separate sets of bellows (a pretty impressive feat in itself) and MordeCai Lawner, with his chrome helmeted (and chrome headed) punk of a motorcyclist But Jones does have the con man's charm and wit m abundance; even though the puppets occasionally manage to snatch away the strings, the puppeteer has the grace to rise above the situation. Unfortunately, Scapmof, with its asides to the audience and final (and totally irrelevant) play along number just after the curtain call, asks for a level of audience involvement that the opening night crowd just couldn't seem to handle. A good percentage of SAT-goers often the old seem to be more interested in theater as dress up Event than in the play itself; See and Be-Seen at-the-Opening syndrome they expect the actors only to allow them to sit back and absorb a A little culture, the key words here being "sit back" and "absorb certain amount of contempt for all us non professionals out here was in evidence among the cast, particularly during Jones' ad libbed ending but at least one segment of the audience has long deserved to feel as silly as it probably did Although the gymnasitcs could have been both a bit more polished and slightly less emphatic, Grover Dale's direction was generally excellent. Moliere's original production of Les Fourberies lasted only 18 performances, but the Young Vic's Scapino! has played more than is two years in New York alone. Studio Arena s latest offering far surpassing at least the scheduled to run through December 6 and it's good, light holiday fare (great for playwright's record that heavy turkey).

Be attending Class of Friday, 14 November 1975 . The Spectrum , Page nine �University Opera Studio Chamber opera is a distinct success always interesting, if not entirely Student recitals are successful. An audience that includes your teacher and your immediate peers can bring out the mediocre in any performer. This was not the case last Friday afternoon when I dropped in on a piano students recital in Baird Hall. Ren Jen Wang was the first performer, playing Rachmaninoff's finger busting Variations on a Theme of Corelli. That she handled Rachmaninoff's considerable technical demands (minus a couple pauses) is quite an achievement, but that she made musical sense of all those notes is remarkable. Next on the program was Paula Kopstick's reading of Beethoven's Sonata in F Major, Op. 54 It was a deliberate, warm performance that might have benefited from more variation in color. The program closed with Elbe Schults' performances of Ravel's Jeux d'Eaux and Liszt's Paganini Etude No. 4 The Ravel was notable for its precious equilibrium of the linear and atmospheric aspect of the score, no mean task. The Liszt was technically respectable but musically somewhat bland. In all fairness, Liszt's piano music leaves me cold, so my opinion should be devalued. Opera is singing Not to be devalued was the University Opera Studio's production of Richard Strauss' chamber opera, Ariadne on Naxos, presented last weekend at the Shaw Festival Theater, Fully explaining the plot would simply take too long, but essentially it is an opera mixed with a burlesque, all within an opera. The performance was, on the whole, a distinct success Particularly effective were Robert Winkler's sets and atmospheric projections. Equally strong was the staging by Muriel Hebert Wolf, especially clever in the Intermezzo. Carlo Pinto's direction of the orchestra was effective though Strauss really demands a virtuoso orchestra which was not in the pit. Opera is singing (a singer once told me). The singing in this opera was on a generally high level. Jeanette Hall-Wood as Ariadne started somewhat harshly but smoothed out and maintained her intensity for an excellent performance. Jane Bane's Zerbmetta, a role calculated to bring down the house, did just that. Her intonation, agility and generally ample voice, along with conscientious acting, made her one of the evening's highlights. Ellen Lang contributed perhaps the smoothest, most musical performance of the night in her role as the composer. In Soo Park's tenor was as solid and strong as his character (Bacchus) demands -Kerby Lovallo Everything considered, a distinct success.

Weird it is, as La Booga Rooga encompasses music quite unlike typical American rock 'n roll. La Booga Rooga in three simple words is simply time music,” which means kick off your boots and as he puts it on a song called "Grease It Up," "get down and grease it up." To further differentiate this album from anything that one might have heard' before, the "good music on this album could most accurately be considered 1930's and 1940's swingtime. There is even a Clarence William tune called "My Bucket's Got A Hole In It" which was written in 1933. It is typical of the other songs on the album. In closing, even though there are a couple of totally obnoxious tunes and the, album does have a monotonous tone to it, this album is definitely a nice change of pace from what one is normally accustomed to.

A cursory glance of 60's splinter groups now out for the second time around reveal the likes of Steppenwolf, Quicksilver, the Beau Brummels and Spirit. Spirit was a vibrant rock band whose music, while never unique, was quite capable of an inspired, derivative sound. Tracks like "I Got a Line on You" and the slick production sleight of hand of the Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus are apt examples. Flowever the refurbished Spirit is just a zombie-like impostor and a ghost of its former self. The current Spirit line-up is in the form of a power trio, consisting of Randy California, Ed Cassidy and Barry Keene. Any three man musical organization must playing possess a technical virtuosity and transcends the limitations imposed cohesiveness that by the power trio format. The Jimi Hendrix Experience and Cream had that ability but Spirit definitely does not. Randy California's vocals are of the Rex Harrison My Fair Lady school of talking lyrics. If you're in desperate need of a chuckle, listen to California butcher "Yesterday." Ed Cassidy remains one of the better bald drummers in rock. Lyrically the compositions are aimed at a fourth grade level while the redundant musical ideas are attired with echo and other masking effects in a vain attempt to gloss over the lack of substance. Son of Spirit fs a dud. For certain things once is not enough but in the case of Spirit once is certainly enough. Hopefully Son of Spirit will terminate the family lineage, if not, it's time for a mercy killing. May Spirit finally rest in peace. C.P. Parkas The Ozark Mountain Daredevils, The Car Over The Lake Album (A&M) With the scourge of Southern rock bands attacking the record racks, up comes another one, the Ozark Mountain Daredevils, already down for one hit single, "Jackie Blue." Their newest album, The Car Over The Lake Album, has just arrived with media hype and a truckload of bland much country-rock potential singles. I hate to say it, but this album is a letdown and carries nothing unique. Every cut, except one, is no longer than four minutes and there is no time for showcasing talents. The Daredevils produce a very country sound with a touch of Little Feat boogie. But it is hard to distinguish one song from the other, since they all have the same slow or country rock beat. The boys harmonize nicely but the material and arranging don't provide the framework to show it. "Jackie Blue'-' was a catchy tune from the previous album and deserved hit single status but there's nothing on this new one that comes near it. What probably should emerge from this album is the best cut on the album, "Thin Ice," which has a nice hook and an unusual bass line. who it all on Dave Anderle Blame Page twelve Spectrum . the whole mess.

Her range and spatial quality enable her to use this voice as a musical instrument, rather than as a compliment to a piece of music. Even so, her first solo album has an air of "gimmickry" about it. It seems like Urszula is trying to cash in on the success of her hubby, Michael Urbaniak, though she is an integral part of his achievement Much of this album is electronic. The song "Funk Rings" consists solely of Urszula singing staccato up and down scales into a synthesizer. The lack of musical quality in this song and "Zavinul" is appalling. In fact, the arrangements on most of the Urbaniak) leave much to be Electronics cannot be substituted for quality. Transistors have no emotion, and music without some sort of "feeling" tends to become album (by Michael desired. repetitive Two bright spots make this album almost worth buying. "Papaya" would be appropriate at a moon launching. The light, lilting quality of this song makes one want to get up and fly. The melody is beautiful, and the harmony between Urszula's voice and her backup group is just right. Gerald Brown on drums and Basil Fearrington on bass are especially good. "Just the Way You Are" is a very sensuous song. It is a musical orgasm, and it is obvious that Urszula is a very satisfied woman. Fusion III is Michael Urbaniak's last album It combines the best of Urszula Dudziak's voice with some excellent jazz. It is a much better sample of jazz-rock than Urszula. It's evident that much more work and time was spent on it than on Urszula Dudziak's first solo album Buy Fusion III and you'll be getting the "real thing." Don't buy Urszula, or —Steven Ashenfarb you'll be getting "taken." Henry McCullough, Horse) Mind Your Own Business (Dark In Mind Your Own Business. Henry McCullough makes his vinyl debut with George Harrison's record company, Dark Horse. McCullough's biggest problem on the album seems to be a lack of anything new or different. McCullough sings and writes almost everything on the album, but he lacks a style of his own, borrowing liberally from others. McCullough's voice is nasal, and lacks depth and range. While his singing style brings Leon Russell to mind, his voice sounds thin and weak in comparison. His compositions and arrangements are patterened too much after those by Garcia. McCullough is backed by a long list of studio musicians who do a decent job. In fact, the album's most distinguishing feature is some fine keyboard work by Tim Hinkley and Mick Weaver. The musicians mesh well, if not spectacularly They tend to help carry McCullough's weak vocals and song similarity with the variety of instrumentation. The best parts of this album are where McCullough lets go and does a bit of boogying on songs like "I Can Drive A Car” and "Mind Your Own Business." On songs which are slower and require more from the vocalist, McCullough falls short. His voice lacks the strength and expression to carry these SHARE THE RIDE WITH US THIS THANKSGIVING AND GET ON TO A GOOD THING.

This album may well appeal to those who enjoy the country influenced rock of the Grateful Dead. It is not a bad album, but not an especially good one, either. Perhaps most characteristic of the album as a whole is "Baby What You Do To Me." This is not a bad song, but is rather unimpressive. McCullough's vocals are muddled and thin sounding. The song is dressed up a bit with some nice horn work and into a nice, rollicking tune. McCullough draws it out too long, however, and the repetition becomes monotonous, as does the whole album. -Dan Hegeman develops Friday, 14 November 1975 Ask your agent about additional departures and return trips.

Earlier, another graduate student from our department wrote in response to some pretty shaky and damaging assumptions about faculty members’ motives in the recent controversy. Your paper interpreted the faculty’s unwillingness to spill the guts of the department all over your headlines as a cover for racism and opportunism. Now, you move your speculations from the editorial pages to a “news” article, when in fact there is no more truth to the charges of personal ambition now than there was last month. I happen to know that the reporter responsible for this story was informed in an Fair chance interview with a faculty member that the not controversy centered upon educational issues on a power grab by self-aggrandising faculty members. The reporter obviously chose to ignore this information and report his own views instead. We all hope that the headline of Friday’s article will become a reality and that the department can settle its differences and move ahead to become the dynamic program that the chairman intends. I’m sure that Dr. Asanti and the faculty would like to move on in a spirit of cooperation If your paper will refrain from printing devisive and damaging myths concerning our department you will ease our work Coop To the Editor This business of the Record Coop closing is just another example of Ketter’s attitude towards the students of the University and his attitude towards this University as a whole. He views our school as a group of buildings and not as an institution of higher education. What he is trying to set up here is a captive camp for consumers. I would like to state that I did not come here to fill the pockets of Buffalo’s businessmen. 1 came here for an education! I did not come to Buffalo, I came to the State University at Buffalo. A university should be a closed system that has the ability to meet most student needs. Not only should there be a record coop but there should be a pizza coop, a food coop, an entertainment coop, a sub coop, and a coop to meet every student need for every student with a valid ID. The prices in the on-campus sub shops should not be so high and rich with profit as to drive us off-campus for a bigger sub at a smaller price. The same is true for the book store and most every other campus monopoly.

If you Mr. Thiessen, have ever had the opportunity to study women, then you might know something about Women’s Studies. Secondly, just as women have private lives, they also have their private parts. But sometimes they wish not to discuss their private lives (or parts). Why can’t you understand this? Being six-foot-six, you seemed to have overlooked the problem. I’m sure you as well, have problems, etc., that you would not want to discuss in the company of women. for everything You exemplify one of today’s foremost problems. There are too many bigots running around, whether they be racist or chauvinist Why don’t you open your eyes and mind, and give everyone a fair chance. It’s people like yourself who force women to generalize into saying Male Chauvinist Pig, when they should be saying Man Chauvinist Pig.

Jeff Van Praag Dave Weiteman Business men poem by Regional prejudice To the Editor Not City.” I have read the letter “Save SUNY In this letter Bernard Brothman proved he was literate, but not very well informed. The two major points of his letter were: A. CUNY (City University of New York) is supported by state taxes. B. New York City drains an unfair portion of State funds through mismanagement. The answers to these charges are simple. In addition to paying State and Federal taxes. New York City residents also pay city taxes. It is this money that is used to maintain CUNY. Little if any money from the State is used in CUNY. Anyway, if the City defaults this practice will be ended, so why bring up the point? I agree that some city employees are over paid. But 1 don’t see how this saps state revenues. Over 43 percent of the state population lives in New York. And if the people who live in Westchester and Nassau Counties are added to this, I have a strong suspicion that over 50 percent of the people in the - state derive their income from the City. For New York City to be a drain on the state, over 50 percent of state funds would have to go to the City. And I have never heard of a year that happened. So in effect, New York state is a drain on the City. The thing that bothers me is your litter (not letter). I detected a strong overtone of regional prejudice. If New Yorkers don’t realize that people in New York City are New Yorkers then this state is in bad shape. We have to stick together or else we are dead meat. We are the richest state in the country, mostly because of New York City. We also form 8.2 percent of this country’s population. Ford is using regional prejudice against New York state and City to win support for his campaign. If the state, and as a result SUNY, goes down with New York City, don’t blame the City, blame Ford forplaying the game of public opinion. The residents of New York City pay City, state and federal taxes. In return New York City and state gets the end of a very pointy stick in the eye.

This will be a good old fashioned black and blue division struggle, but Lions won’t be upset in their new home at Pontiac. Pittsburgh 27, Kansas City 17. Steelers did it last week without Mean Joe Greene and should cruise again this week. Not even the Chiefs can upset three of last year’s playoff teams in one season. Los Angeles 28, Atlanta 10. Rams rebound after last week’s upset loss to San Francisco. Falcons on their way to another season in oblivion. Houston 2ft, Miami 21. Both of these teams have been surprisingly strong so far. But while Dolphins can now cruise to AFC East title, Floustori has an uphill battle for a wild card berth. Flome edge pushes Oilers over the top. Minnesota 35, New Orleans 6. If there is a sillier game this week than Oakland-Cleveland, this has to be it. But watch out next week when San Vikings try for ten straight against that great football power Diego! New York Jets 35, Baltimore 28. The Jets are due to win, and anemic secondaries on both teams will help. New York Giants 24. Philadelphia 20. Both teams scored rear upsets last week, but Giants’ home edge will give them the upper hand this time around St. Louis 21. Washington 17. Randy Johnson will be unable to successfully fill in for the ailing Bill Kilmer, although he will give it a good shot Cincinnati 28. Buffalo 17. (Monday Night Game) With Joe Ferguson not 100 percent, the Bills won’t be able to outscore the playoff hungry Behgals who just happen to have one of the best defenses anywhere. - of Jim Young, Emad Faddoul, and Charlie Wright through graduation, the Bulls will be hard put to even approach last year’s dual meet record of 14-3-1. The establishment of the Eastern Wrestling will greatly improve the quality of League competition the Bulls will face. Charter members of the new league are Penn State, Pittsburgh, Clarion State, Lock Haven, Bloomsburg State and the State University at Buffalo. Michael sees “nothing but good things” resulting from the new league. “I feel that it is an honor to be asked to be a charter member of the Eastern League. It could develop into one of the greatest conferences in the country. The league formation will facilitate scheduling, bring about revenue sharing and possibly lead to revenue sharing through television rights.” He added that, “Our past performances have brought us to hwere we are now.” Toughening schedule Aside from the Eastern League, the remainder of the Bulls’ schedule has been tightened up. Nothing but class competition will be in store for the Bulls this season. A major addition to the schedule is national power University of Oklahoma whose January 23 visit is the result of negotiations between Coach Michael and the Oklahoma coach. Apparently two area high school wrestlers were recruited by Oklahoma. Their decision to go west came only after an agreement to give them a chance to wrestle locally. Since Buffalo, ranked 16th nationally for the last four seasons, is the only class team in the area. Coach Michael was approached for the scheduling of the match. How the Bulls will face this year’s challenge is. dependent on several factors, politics included. The instability of the program at Buffalo is not to be discounted. “We don’t appear strong this year," said Michael. “Our recruitment has not been good the last two* years. This is due to the modification of standards for admission made a few years ago. It is now more difficult to bring in certain kinds of athletes. Our credibility has been attacked because of uncertainty of the athletic budget year after year. As the national situation worsens, the quality of our recruitment is affected.” Outside dollars sought Michael firmly states, “The key to our future is in my ability to raise funds from non-student or University sources to support a modest grant-in-aid program.” He has been taking steps in this direction already. In the past, the team has recovered from the loss of stars. Due to poor recruiting years, it will not be easy to recover from the loss of national caliber wrestlers the likes of Young, Faddoul and Wright. More than ever, the success of the season will rely on Michael’s ability to train and shape his wrestlers. The Bulls return Bruce Hadsell, Erik Drasgow, Bob Martineck, Kirk Anderson and Bill Bartosch. New York State 118 Champion Ray Pfeifer will return to the lineup next semester. The addition of Daymond Clark at 134 should certainly improve the Bulls strength, Clark is a transfer from Geneseo where last year he placed in the state meet. Drasgow and Clark are the Bulls’ only seniors. I ist Saturday the Bulls unimpressively opened the season with the Annual State University at Buffalo Alumni-Varsity Wrestling Meet. The “old men” romped over the unseasoned once again proving that old wrestlers just go up a few weight classes. LEO KOTTKE fvm*m/ Capitol.

Some people we were counting on have felt that it was not in their best interests to continue on with us [Ron Parker is not on the team this year]. This is our toughest schedule ever and logically our record will not be as good as in the past.

Sensory impairment and low IQ’s may also accompany the physical defects. Dr. George Sharpe of the Childrens Memorial Hospital in Oklahoma City said a woman did not have to be an alcoholic to give birth to a baby afflicted by alcohol syndrome.

Cray Spectrum Staff Writer can count on 60 to 90 is a men responding immediately. North Bailey, the Getzville back-up station, has approximately 75 members, and the second back-up station, Eggertsville, has about 60, Miller said. He added that there is a mutual aid fire system in the town of Amherst so that in the event of a serious fire, all Amherst fire companies can be contacted quickly and called for additional help. Getzville has four pumpers, one aerial truck with an 85-foot extension ladder, a rescue truck and an ambulance. North Bailey and Eggertsvilie both have two pumpers available, one aerial (North Bailey has a 100-foot extension ladder) and one rescue truck. Miller said. He added that all of Gctzville’s and North Bailey’s equipment would automatically respond to a fire alarm at the campus. While the most immediate problem concerning fire safety at the Amherst Campus may be vandalism and false alarms, questions have been raised regarding student and employee safety in the event of a fire. The Getzville Fire Company believes it can be on campus in two minutes if it is called to put out a fire. A system has been established whereby Campus Security will meet the firemen at the nearest entrance and, if a patrol car is available, personally escort them to the site of the fire. If a car is not available, a member of Campus Security will still be stationed at the entrance to provide detailed directions for the quickest way to reach the fire. The Getzville firemen have been receiving updated maps of the Amherst Campus regularly and are trying to keep up with construction changes and the Firewalls layout of roads and buildings. The highest buildings at Precautions Amherst are about 10 stores, or Service roads are kept clear of 120 feet. Where any two buildings unauthorized traffic at all times join, fire walls have been and the core road, the main constructed that would contain connecting road within the fires of a certain temperature for campus, is strictly patrolled and two hours. Hunt said. The halls have smoke barrier would be immediately cleared and closed off in the event of a fire, doors every 100 feet and all said Robert Hunt, director of buildings over 70 feet high have Environmental Health and Safety. standpipes on each floor with The Getzville Fire Company inch hose that will reach as far as has 95 members. Getzville Fire 75 feet. Hunt added. Chief Dan Miller said that if there Standpipes are similar to fire hydrants and are connected to the same water supply lines. The standpipes are equipped to handle the heavier 2 Vi inch hose needed for serious fires. Hunt said the buildings are “very fire resistant,” and that there is a minimum of combustible materials in the construction of the buildings, which are mostly brought in by students furnishing their rooms. Bill Murray, director of Fire Safety, added that sprinkler systems are installed in hazardous areas, such as the Bookstore, theater and janitors’ closets (where flammable cleaning liquids might be stored). An ounce of prevention Despite these built-in fire prevention systems and the available manpower, Chief Miller feels some aspects of the campus are not as safe as they could be. “I have some very serious concerns about fire safety out there. And I’m talking about the entire campus, not one or two areas. I’m not pulling any punches. I want that campus to be as fire safe as possible, to the best of my ability. I’ll go as high as 1 have to to see these changes with Miller have taken place made,” he said. regarding fire safety and that his Miller didn’t specify what his department has been trying to particular concerns are, but said work as closely as possible with he is meeting Monday with John him. He said he didn’t know what Telfer, Vice President for Miller’s current concern was only Facilities Planning, Duane Moore, that Miller had requested the a construction associate for Telfer meeting and asked that Hunt be and Hunt present. Telfer said a series of meetings Previous discussions dealt with the placement of fire hydrants, but, according to Hunt, that situation has been remedied. Hunt added that other concerns of Miller’s dealt with the fire communications systems, but said this has been resolved and is scheduled for further improvement. —continued on page 6— Record Coop Reopening under new guidelines President Robert Ketter has given the Student Association (SA) two weeks to develop an acceptable plan for the continued operation of the student Record Coop. “We mutually agreed that the Student Association is the organization which will be held responsible and accountable for the future operation of the Record Coop on campus,” according to a statement issued jointly by Ketter and SA Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde following a meeting last Friday afternoon. To allow SA enough time to formulate such a plan, “it was agreed that operation of the Coop would be temporarily suspended,” the statement said. Essential elements The statement also outlined the “elements of the plan essential to the continued and approved operation of the Coop.” They include: a probationary period of 90 days after the Coop has reopened; a consistent, appropriate and responsible method for the fiscal and managerial accounting of the Coop, including monthly statements and reporting; a definition of reasonable inventory limits for the facility, necessarily lower than those inventories recorded on November 1,1975; the means by which the Coop will be operated on a sound financial basis. Lalonde said after the meeting that SA will hopefully work with Ed Doty, Vice President for Finance and — - - - Management, in drawing up “the givens the Coop will be operating on.” He added that several ideas are in the planning stages, although he did not specify details. Wait and see Reaction to Ketter’s decision to overturn Doty’s original decision to shut down the Coop was favorable among Coop workers. “It’s O.K.,” one person said. “The administration did not ask for more than we expected. We will have to see how it works.” Doty first sent word of the Record Coop’s closing in a memo to SA President Michele Smith dated October 24, 1975. He said he was forced to close the student-run Coop upon receipt of a formal complaint from Carl C. Cavage, President of Cavages Inc. and owner of a record shop across from the Main Street campus in the University Plaza. Doty met early last week with SA representatives to discuss -the future of the Coop but he upheld his decision to close it, citing improperly kept financial statements and the store’s large volume of business as the major reasons. Vocal protests Meanwhile, angered students voiced their objections by picketing Cavages, writing letters to The Spectrum, and circulating petitions to keep the Coop open. After its initial failure to convince Doty, SA took its case to Ketter on Thursday, November 7. Representing the students were Doug Cohen, Director of Activities and Services; Steve Schwartz, Director of Student Affairs; Bruce Insana, a Coop worker; and Lalonde. Ketter, Doty, Executive Vice President Albert Somit, Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti, and Faculty Senate Chairman George Hochfield, spoke for the administration and faculty. Various political and legal issues were raised at the meeting, and it was agreed that Ketter would announce his final decision late Friday after he spoke privately with Lalonde �i I Blind students emit a special determination ■ ■ v '. by Meg Covey / • ' \ Spectrum Staff Writer -v "' 5 -V > . j Imagine if one day the lights went out, and everything was left in darkness. Imagine never seeing the faces of classmates, the campus buildings, even the trees and landscape of the University. Or, imagine it is partially dark, with some shapes visible, but the world still in somewhat of a haze. These are only fantasies for most students, but for the fourteen blind or partially blind students at this University, attending school with sighted classmates requires a special determination. Bertha Cutcher, Assistant Director of Career Guidance and Placement, said the University recommends and encourages blind students to register early for courses so they can begin special preparation for any class that calls for it. When the classes are set, the required books for each subject’are ordered from an organization that records books on tape for the blind. Lists are also sent out in hopes of getting other editions in Braille. Braille, tapes and readers Not all titles are carried, and in.; that case, other means are used to obtain the books in suitable form. Texts are recorded at Ridge Lea by undergraduate members of the Speech Communication Department. Cutcher said there is a room in the Harriman offices of the Vice-president of Student Affairs where readers may recite books to the blind students. The room is also used to administer oral exams. A blend of Braille, tape, and readers, then, is used by blind students to complete their courses, Cutcher said. For the partially sighted, a machine, similar in appearance to a television enlarges print to achieve greater legibility. The machine was acquired by the University a year ago and is permanently housed in Lockwood Library. Aiding mobility Mobility can be a problem for blind students. But “once they learn how to get around, they get around,” Cutcher said. She believes the Amherst campus is more barrier-free than the older buildings on Main Street, but looks forward to further improvements on both campuses which will make any part of the University more familiar and accessable. Brailling classroom and elevator numbers to assist mobility is a possibility. Another aid to mobility that Cutcher proposed is the tactile map, which was recently accepted as a project by the Department of Environmental Design. Cutcher and other invdividuals have taken it upon themselves to help the visually impaired here. However, a special task force on campus makes an attempt to identify existing and potential problems of the blind in an effort to improve conditions. The Physical Education Department has planned a special adaptive class for handicapped students next semester, including the visually disabled, which will give them an opportunity to learn to bowl, exercise and participate in other types of athletics. Excellent and independent All the resources available to blind and partially blind students are very good, according to Megan Ford, a recent University graduate who is currently an instructor in Women’s Studies College, and partially blind herself. She termed Cutcher’s work for the blind “fantastic.” Ford compared a particular midwestern state's rehabilitation agency with those in New York State. She claimed the midwestern state was of “no help” and pried into the personal lives of each applicant* granting aid to those with “proper” personal characteristics, including “correct” political affiliations. New York State, on the other hand, is not concerned with student’s personal affairs, she stated, but, rather, gives aid on the basis of the student’s academic motivation and endeavors. She added that some people feel the visually handicapped are different, and yet these people are actually unreceptive to the special needs of a blind person striving for higher education. In their quest for a college education, Cutcher feels, these students, make good use of the available resources and are “excellent and independent individuals.” Bus token sale finds success Bus tokens offered to students at a reduced rate often for S3 have proven a welcome Student Association (SA) benefit for commuters. When the tokens were first offered last week at the Norton Hall Ticket Office, 500 were purchased in 30 mihutes. This week, because of long lines of students waiting for concert tickets, it took a little longer an hour and fifteen minutes. The idea of seeking a reduced bus fare for commuters came originally from SA President Michele Smith. Preliminary negotiations with the Niagara Frontier Transit Authority (NFTA) proved fruitless because the NFTA was not convinced that the demand for the tokens at a 3-5 cent discount would be large enough to make the venture worthwhile financially. However, SA Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde and Donna Buehler, a concerned undergraduate, decided to pursue the project. — SWAP N’ SHOP Now open 2 locations for RVMQ KAYE CO., MC.

Even with these 'statistics, NFTA was not convinced that the reduced fare would be worthwhile. “At this point, 1 felt pretty deflated,” said Lalonde. But then, the SA Executive Committee voted to follow the example of Buffalo State College by purchasing a large volume of the tokens at regular price, and selling them at a reduced rate. Buff State only attempted this project once, Lalonde said, but here the sale will take place every week. Since the funding for the project is coming from undergraduate mandatory activity fees, the tokens are only being sold to undergraduates. “It’s your money!” Lalonde emphasized, He urged undergraduates not to purchase tokens for outsiders, since there is a limit of ten per person per week, and “there’s not enough to go around as it $500.00 Frl. 14th PAPERBACK They conducted what Lalonde called a “quasi-market survey,” counting how many students & & HOMES BLD. $3.00 Entry Fees/Person 630 P.M.

CarpooIs will be formed next Tuesday for those wishing to attend a rally in Washington, O.C., to support federal aid for New York City. Anyone interested in driving and/or participating should call SA for more information. Impending budget crisis for the state A University-wide “Teach-In” planned for next Monday will feature workshops designed to educate students and faculty about the impending budget crisis the State University (SUNY) will face if New • York City defaults. - > A “Walk-for-SUNY” will start from the Ellicott Complex at 8; 30 a.m., and end at Norton Hall where the marchers will gather in the Fillmore Room for a rally at noon. Speakers will discuss aspects of the crisis and what can be done to face it. Student Association (SA) representatives were told by President Robert Ketter in a meeting last Friday that the administration supports the event. SA President Michele Smith said Ketter was “very receptive,” and “all in favor” of the project. She said Ketter also favored the formation of a “steering committee for long-range plans” to deal with the budget crisis. Ketter was not available for comment. Bad tunes “If cuts continue, we can only foresee bad times ahead for students,” Smith said. She pointed out that the budget request being presented to the state by SUNY Chancellor Boyer and the Board of Trustees will probably be an “austerity” or "no-growth” budget. “The last time there was an austerity budget was in 1973, when there was also a tuition increase,” she said. A telegram from Boyer to President Ford predicted dire consequences for SUNY if New York City is not helped out of its present financial difficulties. Smith said the “Teach-In” will be geared toward clearing away “a lot of bad misconceptions” among people on campus concerning what default would mean. She pointed out that default would have serious consequences for Buffalo, as well as SUNY. Many local construction projects would be halted, and interest rates would skyrocket. Upstate and down “The people in Buffalo should not have to suffer because of New York City’s problems,” she said. “But there’s a lot of deep-rooted resentment in the city of Buffalo towards downstate.” “New York State by itself can’t bail out the City,” she said, pointing out that the City’s default would have long-range effects that patchwork aid for SUNY from the federal government, even if it was provided, could not alleviate. “The Teach-In’ will hopefully help students realize the effects that money has on their education.” I AM I $57 Round trip via spacious luxury equipped motorcoach 1.

The Council, which must approve four out of the six faculty members who will be appointed to the committee, charged that the Faculty Senate Executive Committee, characterized the' faculty appointments as the first steps toward a “lily-white” committee. Weeks also said the only community input on the committee would come from £va Lidge, a committee member nominated by the College Council and approved by the Faculty Senate. Weeks also saw the current composition of the Charming Committee as hostile to colleges considered more radical. Drawing particular resentment within the College, said Weeks, was the violated both the Council’s own recommendations and the dictates of the Affirmative Action guidelines in not including any Third World faculty members on the list of eight nominees. The Council also charged the Faculty Senate with threatening to appoint committee members without the Council’s approval, a violation of the Reichert Prospectus, under which the Chartering Committee was set up. The Senate originally sent a list of nominees to the Council. The Council was supposed to choose four committee members from the Ust. According to the Reichert Prospectus, faculty members on the Chartering Committee must be acceptable to the Colleges while Colleges members on the committee must be acceptable to the faculty. Pass back Noting that no Third World members were included on the list, the Council chose three of the four and sent the list back to the Faculty Senate. The Senate sent back the list without adding or deleting any names and the Council eventually selected Laurance Michel of the English Department as the fourth member while sending the protest with Faculty Senate. Faculty-Senate Chairman George Hochfield said he was only carrying out the will of the Senate Executive Committee in sending the list back to the Council without adding new names. He also stated that the only point of contention between the two bodies was over the fourth of the four members, and that there had not been any argument over the first three faculty members appointed. At a meeting Thursday, the College Council also protested the Chartering Committee’s beginning reviews of Social Sciences College and College F (Tolstoy College) this week, well before the January deadline. The Council feared the scope of the reviews. would be broader than the perfunctory check envisioned when President Robert Ketter first added them as conditions for approving charters for the two colleges in January 1974. Not invidious Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg said he does not see the reviews as invidious devices to shut down the two colleges, and said they are proper at this time. Social Sciences College opposed conducting the review at this time, questioned scope of the review, and vowed to lobby against the appointments of the faculty members. Robin Weeks, a member of the College’s Irving Spitzberg reappointment of Undergraduate Library Director Yoram Szekely, who was reappointed by the Faculty Senate without consultation. A clause in the Reichert Prospectus allows either College Council or the Faculty Senate to reappoint an incumbent committee member for a one-year term without the other body’s approval. Szekely had been approved by the College Council when he was initially appointed to the Chartering Committee in the Spring of 1974. Szekely said that the Social Science College charges originated from points he raised at the chartering hearings last fall. In particular, he said he became upset when certain members of the college, in response to his hypothetical question, said they would not necessarily support the right of Arthur Jensen and William Shockley to speak on campus. The question had come up during discussions of the course, “Jensenism and the Crisis in U. Education,” which is critical of Jensen’s and Shockley’s philosophies. Szekely said he had also referred to regular faculty involved with the College as “front men” who actually had little to do with governance, a view which he admits might be outdated by now. the Have complaints or problems about: All students Record Co-op are members Food Service RA cutbacks NYC default Non-Academic Problems attend — Student Affairs Task Force meeting Thursday, Nov. 13 at 3:00 in rm 234 Norton •ADD $3.00 Wednesday, 12 November 1975 .

The terms of the agreement arc similar to those of another Sinai resolution which was flatly rejected by Israel earlier this year, much to Kissinger's dismay. Besides calling for a three year extension of the mandate of the United Nations Peace Keeping Force, thcr terms include important concessions on both sides. The Israelis will cede to the Egyptians a small but militarily important strip of land in the Northeastern Sinai (adjacent to the Suez Canal) which includes the strategic Gidda and Milta passes and the valuable Abu Rudeis oil fields, all of which were captured during the June 1967 war.

Under the agreement they are to allow the unhindered passage of cargo ships bound for Israel through the Suez Canal, moderate their Anti-Israeli propaganda and withhold their support from Arab efforts to bring about the expulsion of Israel from the United Nations. This last provision was successful in thwarting Arab support for an Israeli expulsion vote in the current session of the General Assembly. The Egyptian concessions are highly significant, and according to an article in the September 18 issue of Time magazine, mean “virtual acceptance on the part of the Egyptians, of a state of peaceful coexistence with Israel.” The whole agreement hinges upon a provision Included at Israel’s insistence. It provides for the installation in the Sinai “buffer zone” (the neutral demilitarized zone sandwiched between the opposing forces) of troop monitoring surveillance stations, crammed with highly sophisticated eavesdropping equipment, and manned by 100 to 200 American technicians. Critics maintain that this development could portend a direct U.S. involvement in a future Mid-East war. Maple Rd.) Student Occupational ■ Therapy Assoc .

The recently negotiated Sinai Accord, Zionism American foreign policy were harshly denounced by Sami A1 Banna, a representative of the Palestine Information Committee and an engineering professor at Columbia University, in a lecture in Norton Hall Friday. The Sinai accord, the product of “shuttle diplomacy” by Secretary of State Henry Kissinger effectively reduces Israeli-Egyptian tensions and makes the likelihood of another Mid-East war more and ■ • Harsh criticism The accord has been subject to harsh criticism from the more militant factions in the Arab world. The Palestine Liberation organization (PLO), Syria and Lybia have accused Egypt of “selling out.” Egyptian President Anwar Sadat has taken a calculated rish in leaving himself wide open to criticism from the Left, by cooperating with Kissinger. Al Banna is one of these leftist critics. He speaks from the point of view of the PLO, which is notoriously hostile towards any conciliation with Israel. Calling for an initial Israeli withdrawal to its pre-1967 borders, A1 Banna insisted that the accord only succeeds in intensifying the Arab struggle against Zionist Israel and the quest for fundamental human rights. Although he indicated the agreement removes Egypt the common front against Israel, he believed it signifies only a temporary lull in the “inexorable fight with Zionism.” A1 Banna went on to denounce American media and governmental “deceptions” which have portrayed U.S. support of Israel as being in overriding interest of democracy. The United States, he added, is “upholding genocide” through its support of Israel with billions of dollars worth of armaments and economic aid which would be better spent on pressing domestic social and economic problems. He advised the American government to officially recognize the PLO as the sole representative of the Palestinian people, which thus far it has adamantly refused to do. In a methodical denunciation of the Sinai accord, A1 Banna asserted that the stationing of American observers in the Sinai buffei' zone is a precursor of another Vietnam type involvement. Racist ideology? In a lengthy critique, A1 Banna termed Zionism an inherently racist ideology because it presupposes anti-semetism. Zionism, A1 Banna said, allies itself with anti-semetic elements in its basic tenets, which advocate “the segregation of the Jewish people from the rest of the world.” He went so far as to equate Zionism with Nazism, indicating that both ideologies “project the inalienable rights of nationality irrespective to history.” Asserting that the state of Israel is built upon the suppression of the fundamental rights of the Palestinian people. At Banna repeated PLO leader Yasir Arafat’s call for the dissolution of Israel and its replacement with a “free” state where Jew and Arab could live peacefully together. Later, during a question and answer period, this solution was criticized as unrealistic on the grounds that Israel would never voluntarily submit to such a plan, and therefore the solution implies the physical destruction of Israel. But Al Banna insisted upon its validity, reasoning that a radical change in people's attidues is possible over an extended period of time. Many of Al Banna’s assertions were vehemently contested by supporters of Israel. This provoked angry responses from the Arab supporters, and a disorderly, empassioned altercation ensued. Each side raised the specter of gruesome human atrocities perpetrated by each other. These include both atrocities committed by PLO commando raids (e.g., Maalot) and retaliatory Israeli raids on Palestinian refugee camps in Lebanon. George Ciacamal, President of the Arab Graduate Student Organization which sponsored the presentation, expressed regret over the disorderly behavior of the audience. ��>* Jt. sft Teacher o.i.. Wpjt *-. ■' V'.Q - by Paul Krehbtd Contributing Editor Teachers across western New York have responded to rising prices, budget cuts, deterioration of facilities, overcrowded classrooms, and lack of control over their work, by engaging in a record number of strikes this fall. Negotiations have failed and teachers have followed in the footsteps of workers in private industry by withholding their labor in a continued effort to redress their grievances. Yet, teachers, classified as public employees, are denied the legal right to strike under the infamous anti-labor Taylor Law, and have been hit with stiff fines, jailings and loss of privileges. The New York State law prohibits public employees from striking, and withholds two days pay from each striker for each day he is on strike. Orchard Park teachers hit Additionally, each striker loses one year’s tenure. This means that a teachers’job security is temporarily lost. The local school districts levy the fines, while teachers can appeal to the Public Employees Relations Board (PERB). Teachers in western New York have been hit ; »‘ T, ■* fM; C- v j" t' •**" If ,; '. stakes atthah&iest >** *■ especially hard. Recently, eight teacher union officials from the striking Orchard Park Teachers Association (OPTA), were sentenced by State Supreme Court Justice Norman Stiller to 30 days in the Erie County Correctional Facility for contempf of court when teachers ignored a court order to end the strike. Stiller revealed his thoroughly anti-labor sentiments by imposing a $5000 fine on the OPTA, adding that the union would have to pay an additional $1000 per day for each day the teachers remained on strike. The union has been out since October 14, costing it over $30,000 dollars in fines already. Teachers protest The union teachers walked off their jobs after school negotiators failed to meet their proposals for fair dismissal procedures, (to prevent arbitrary and unjust firings), a say over teacher transfers, and higher wages to make up earning losses due to inflation. After Justice Stiller announced the jail sentences, 250 union teachers rallied in Buffalo’s Niagara Square the next day to protest the harsh sentences and affirm their intent to stick by their demands. “This strike action is just as strong as it ever was,” said Thomas Rivers, OPTA President, before he went to jail. “Some people back in Orchard Park, calling themselves Board of Education members, thought when they got their pound of flesh yesterday, that everything would collapse,” he added. ‘Proud and honored’ In refusing to knuckle under to the board, Douglas Johnston, OPTA representative, told the cheering rally just before he went to jail; “I am proud and honored to do this, not just for Orchard Park, but for all teachers in New York State.” While' the teachers protested publicly, Emanuel Tabachnick, legal counsel for the OPTA, argued for a stay of execution in front of State Supreme Court Justice Moule. After nine hours in jail, a stay was granted until December 1. and the eight were released. Teachers unions in western New York have expressed their support for the OPTA, by sending messages of solidarity and funds. Negotiations continue, the OPTA strike holds firm, and expressions of hatred for the Taylor Law grow. Teachers fined Yet, the teachers of Orchard Park are not the only area teachers to receive reprisals under the law for engaging in strike activities. Six hundred teachers in the Williamsville School District were hit with Taylor law fines and tenure losses for their five-day strike in September. One hundred and eighty-three teachers from the Springville School District and 900 from the Niagara Falls TOMORROW 4230 Ridge Lea Rm B8 " All they think about is money...” School District, were just notified of their Taylor Law penalties after both unions engaged in five-day strikes in September Every teacher from the Starpoint School District is being hit with a fine of $120 for every day they were out during their six-day strike in October. Teachers are currently on strike in Niagara-Orleans, and along with the Orchard Park teachers, will not be fined until 30 days after the end of their strikes, according to the law. Abolish Taylor Law In the face of growing economic problems, why should teachers, or other productive workers, be forced to pay for a recession which is a natural cycle of our unplanned and contradictory economic system? While some companies, businesses and other institutions decline or go bankrupt, many are taken'over by larger enterprises and integrated into their profit-making plans. In a recession, economic power becomes more centralized in the hands of fewer and fewer wealthy interest groups, who, sooner or later, set new profit records. The infamous Taylor Law legalizes the open robbery of public employees, in an effort to pay for the economic stagnation that the owners of the economy and their servants in the state perpetuate. As the deterioration of the standard and quality of life of public employees continues, the movement to abolish this anti-labor law will increase. If successful, public employees will then be able to take their place next to privately-employed workers, to bargain and strike over the conditions of their labor, without being punished by a reactionary state law.

Either way the university washed its hands of the whole morality question and avoided taking a stand on the right of college women to contraception and counseling. The federal legislation against sex discrimination known as Title IX may have changed all that and forced universities into the vanguard of family planning services. Although a requirement to provide birth control devices is not included in the new Department of Health, Education and Welfare’s (HEW) regulations, some women’s groups claim that the implication is there. What Title IX does say is that any institution which receives any federal funds and “provides full coverage health service shall provide gynecological care.” But “gynecological care” does not necessarily imply distributing birth control devices. One spokeswoman for the Alan Guttmacher Institute, the research branch of Planned Parenthood, claimed that it is discriminatory not to provide gynecological care and access to contraceptive services “because the one fundamental difference between men and women is in regard to their reproductive roles and health care needs. If female students don’t get help through the college health service, they have to purchase it through a private physician or incur health and pregnancy risks.” - The fact is, most college women need access to birth control services. According to the Commission oji Population Growth and the American Future, nearly half the unmarried women in the United States have had sexual intercourse by age 19. The picture, however, is not one of “rampant sexuality among the sexually experienced,” but of greatly misinformed women with vague ideas about how pregnancy occurs and the use of contraception. In the past, schools have generally treated sex-related .health needs as a separate medical need, outside the realm of their responsibility to women on campus. And although women students usually pay their schools a separate charge for health care, most have had no alternative but to rely on a private physician for care and gynecological contraceptive advice, resulting in additional costs to the student. With incfeasingly liberal attitudes toward visitation, coed dorms and cohabitation, more schools are including birth control clinics in their health services. Some schools, however, are still fighting against the dissemination of contraceptive advice on their campuses. Overloaded clinic Recently the Board of Regents of Arizona State University (ASU) forbid the campus health service from giving family planning counseling and birth control devices to students. The Regents’ decision is now being contested in court, but meanwhile women students are shuttled off to the local Planned Parenthood which —continued on Fire safety... Telfer felt the greatest concern was basically financial on Miller’s part. He explained that under New York State law a state institution cannot directly support a local fire company. The law says that the “contributions by employees [of the institution] to the tax base makes up for any lack of direct contribution.” Telfer said he realizes this places a great financial burden on Getzville, but said, “Our hands are tied because of the law.” Miller, however, disputed Telfer’s claim that financial reasons were the basic problem. He admitted that because the campus was placed in hjs district, the town has been forced to raise its tax rate to purchase additional tion . 8— to “remedy certain deficiencies that exist on the campus relating to fire safety.” “I’m not going out there to ask for money. My one and only concern is fire safety. The money situation concerns all the residents, but fire prevention and safety is what I’m after,” Miller asserted.

Fancy cgrs to Presidency fei x «-< Wednesday, 12 Nov6: - by Jesse Beahan Spectrum Staff Writer Senator Lloyd Bentsen (D., Texas), one of the few politicians from Texas who supports federal aid to New York City, continued his campaign for the 1976 Democratic Presidential nomination in Norton Hall last Saturday night. Bentsen is a lawyer and a millionaire who served three terms in the House of Representatives and has been in the Senate since 1970. There he is a member of the Finance, Public Works, and Joint Economic Committees. He was the first Democrat to announce his candidacy for the Presidency when on April 6 of this year, he asked himself the rhetorical question, “Where do you go from fancy cars and million-dollar bank accounts?” The Senator arrived about twenty minutes after he was scheduled to begin speaking, accompanied by a five-car contingent of Secret Service men.' He devoted most of his time to answering questions from the 200 students who jammed Haas Lounge. Fiscal crisis The first question dealt with New York City’s fiscal crisis, and congressional efforts to aid the metropolis. “Without question New York has lived beyond its income for a long time,” he asserted. “We are already seeing the ripple effects, in the form of higher interest rates.” Bentsen advocates the Stevenson bill, which calls for some steps to be taken before federal aid is given, and emphasized that only after substantial budget cuts were made would he advise heavy federal backing. The students persisted with half a dozen more questions about New York, most of them dealing with federal intervention. Bentsen was more inclined to talk about energy, insisting that, “When it comes to coal, we are the Saudi Arabia of the world.” He said Americans must start “with the proposition that this nation can, with hard work and determination, become self-sufficient” in energy, and a scientific effort, such as the one employed during World War II to replace rubber and silk, was needed. ERA support In response to a question about the Equal Rights Amendment, Bentsen replied firmly, “1 j ; —J. Chin Lloyd Bentsen Abraham Lincoln thought of something to say when he offered amnesty after the Civil War, and that President Ford found a way to pardon Nixon. This drew applause from the students. Population policy When asked if the United States should have a population policy, he made the statement, “I think there should be encouragement to see that children born are wanted.” When he asked which way he would vote on repealing the Gi. Bill when it came to a vote in the Senate, Bentsen said he would have to vote to repeal it, but not retroactively. “It’s a matter of how much you can spend,” he explained.

Counseling service by prison group sought The Buffalo Women’* Prison Project (BWPP) is presently patting together s througb-t he-phone jail counseling service for aU those detained at the Erie County Holding Center. The group began to formulate this program when it was denied entrance to the Holding Center due to rising tensions among inmates there and the feeling on the part of the jail administration that the Project volunteers were partly responsible for it. “We realize what the jail is like and that it is necessary for people to keep in contact with the people inside in order to try and prevent their isolation from the outside world. When there isn’t anyone going inside or being a public voice for the people inside, the administration, the guards, and the matrons can do whatever they and what they please, please usually isn’t too good,” said a spokesperson for the group. —* Maintaining a link She feels it is essential to maintain those links with the “innocent” people trapped inside who are often only in awaiting trial because they can’t afford their bail. This past summer, she said, when communication between the detainees and any outside groups was pretty much stifled, there was a suicide, a hunger strike and beatings which were witnessed by the women incarcerated there. “We must provide the link and prevent the administration from taking advantage of those inside by letting people know what’s going on and watching over what they do.” In the spring of 1975, the FOR SALE OLYMPUS OM-1 MO with SOrom fl.tand 135mm f 3.5 lenses plus case for camera and normal and case for 13S plus 2 filters for lenses $325 today only See Larry in Room 355 Norton Hall between 10 a.m.—5 p.m. or call 831-4113. BWPP organized a jail count*ling service to deal with the practical finding out day-to-day needs trial dates, contacting people to post bail, finding out where children are and if welfare checks of the women are still coming inside the Erie County Holding Center. After, months of organizing, establishing an advisory board, writing proposals and holding training sessions, the program was accepted at the Holding Center. However, one week before it was to begin in June 1975, Thomas Whelan, the superintendent of the jail, changed his mind and decided not to allow the program. — - The BWPP decided that the services it was trying to provide for those inside the jaU were greatly needed and that until volunteers could get the program inside the jail, they would try to use the telephone as a communication link. “Although we know this is not as effective as going inside, at least we will be able to know what is going on inside and we will still be able to meet some of the needs of the detainees there, even though what we can do will be much more limited,” the spokesperson said. “In addition, by having a telephone contact number, people can get in contact with us before they are sent to the Holding Center, at their arraignment or right after being arrested, so we can take care of things they might need right away. Abo, we are hoping that people in the community that are having an> related type of problems eithei with the jail administration itself or just plain not knowing where to go to help people that they may know inside, can contact us,” she said. “Since we are in touch with the resources that do exist in Erie County, we can try to direct them to the right place or make some contacts for them which might help their situation.” The BWPP needs more people who are interested in helping provide this service and are willing to stay by the phone a few hours a week to answer calls and carry through on them. For all those who would like to get involved, there will be a meeting on Thursday, November 13, at 7:30 p.m. at the Build Halfway House on 17-19 East Utica Street. Those interested may also call Robin at 837-7498. Wednesday, 12 November 1975 The Spectrum Page seven . . �Birth control sees an average of 35 patients a* day. “Sixty percent are students and more than half of that figure are ASU students," one worker there said. The attitude of the Regents, according to the Student Association president of ASU is well reflected in an editorial that appeared in the Arizona Republic. “The public education system does not need to add a function designed to bail out students whose frolicsome sexual freedom is pursued with abandon, often with sad results. Now is the time for them to learn on their own the costs of promiscuity, and to either use common sense or pay.” Even those who do use common sense end up paying. Although birth control is offered on many more campuses now than ever before, women students are often expected to support such services with money in addition to their regular health care fees. At the University of California at Davis, students interested in getting contraceptives through their health service will pay SI7.50 a visit not including the cost of the ,hed nic ? ‘ Is.Tjf' '*? . • " • for the treatment of “acute or sub-acute” conditions. Women students pay in other ways, too. Many have to wait two or three months to set up an appointment with a gynecologist through the health service. At Washington University in St. Louis, there is one gynecologist for 5000 female students. The health service at Washington University will take care of emergency gynecological problems right away but as the gynecological nurse explained, “We can’t consider a request for birth control as an emergency. We hate to tell women they have to wait an extra month and they don’t like to hear it, but there is nothing we can do.” PREGNANCY?

' f-.H O «• There’s more than one kind of inflation that college (CPS) administrators are complaining about. Grade inflation has drawn the criticism of administrators throughout the country who are beginning to question how many students deserve the grades they get. As evidence, they point fo Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores for college-bound seniors which are failing to new lows at the same time that grade point averages are climbing. At the University of Oklahoma, where the average grade in one college is a 3.0, Dean Paige Mulhollen said recently that people hiring graduates “are going to begin to wonder, if everybody we turn out has a high grade point but some of them aren’t very capable. They’re going to start asking us, 'Wait a minute, what are you doing for us’?” The dean of the school of education at Arizona State University was alarmed enough by the high grades doled out in the school to put a ceiling on the number of A’s or B’s awarded each quarter. MDry than 85 percent of the school’s students received A’s or B’s in fall quarter last year, according to a survey. Final grades won’t be able to exceed a 3.0 average for all undergraduate students under the V'-f’V ill UKu - new system The problem is hardly confined to Arizona and Oklahoma. A study of 197 institutions conducted by a researcher at Michigan State University showed that since 1960, the average grade esmedhad risen by about one half of a grade. As a result, according to the dean’s student assistant at Johns Hopkins University, “it is increasingly difficult to distinguish mediocre students from the truly outstanding ones.” The assistant claimed that if the trend is unchecked, grades will no longer be a valid measurement of achievement and “the mainstay of the educational system will in fact be perverted.” Administrators doubt that grades are going up because students are getting smarter. They point to SAT scores which show that, if anything, the opposite is true. SAT scores released this fall showed that on an 800-point scale, the average verbal score has dropped 44 points since 1963. Scores on the math section of the tests have dipped 30 points over the same period. In Oklahoma, Mulhollen said that there are a number of reasons why grades have edged upward over the years. “Some think it has grown out of the Vietnam war, that there are some faculty who were unwilling to give bad grades that might lead to people getting drafted,” he said. He added that there arc others “who think secondary education is better than it has ever been before, or that television has created a ‘super-generation.’ There are a lot bf suggested reasons but I don’t think anybody has much data to support any of them," he said. Other administrators blame the economy. The need to keep enrollment Up during hard economic times may have led instructors to give higher grades to keep students at their schools. At the University of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, administrators claimed that policies allowing students to drop classes they are doing poorly in may be part of the reasoh for grade averages that have risen from 2.6 to 2.8 there between 1969 and 1975. The result of skyrocketing grades, according to Yale Dean Jaroslav Pelikan, is that the “nuances about a student’s capacity for scholarship are more and more difficult to read from a transcript.” Both employers and enrollment officials will be forced to rely less heavily on grade points and develop other methods to measure ability.

The student, Sheena Rose, has been doing a study of the effect of THC (the active ingredient of marijuana) on vision under simulated night lighting illumination. Preliminary results of the tests indicate that the rabbits used in the experiments cannot see as well after a THC injection. The injections are not super-human amounts either. “My high dosage is probably less than the average street dose you can get from smoking two or three joints,” Rose said. - Garrett may have hired Davis to embarrass Claremont in retaliation for his firing. Garrett denied this and says Davis simply applied for the job after it was advertised in trade journals. Claremont’s governing board attempted to withdraw the job offer but Davis had already signed a contract Davis was acquitted in 1972 of murder and kidnapping charges stemming from an abortive attempt to free prisoners at the Marin County California courthouse. A judge and three other persons were killed. Although Davis was not involved in the incident, it was later discovered that a gun belonging to one of the kidnappers had been purchased by her.

In fact, the behavioral scientists say, people who suffer from the disease of alcoholism also suffer from insomnia, repeated awakenings, a marked increase in dreaming and very little or no deep sleep. The trio is currently engaged in a unique three-year research project at the University’s Alcohol Research Center to determine whether these disturbances are permanent even after the drinker has gone on the wagon. Aided by a $168,000 federal grant, the three arc hooking 40 volunteers from a local alcohol treatment program to sensitive polygraph machines in order to monitor their sleep. “1A this way, we can determine person’s steep pattern from dozing to dreaming'and tell whether any improvements (over the three years) have beer made,” one of the researchers said..

Generally, he conceeds that the University community does not have the right to have supportive benefits for the students. As students of the University, we deserve at least some benefits. The United States Government on the same level has rightly justified the use of supportive benefits for military dependents and Active Duty Personnel.

OUR student union to OUR record store, flat on our base personnel buy their food at wholesale prices. The government picks up the difference needed to employ Civil Service scale wages and facility expenses. In contrast, the Record Coop does not use state funds to pay students to coordinate the activity. Therefore, the Coop is run by and for students at no cost to the University. Is it fair in either case? Should military dependents be allowed to buy at wholesale prices at the expense of tax-paying public? Perhaps not, although this is exactly what has persisted, and what is becoming a growing and thriving operation. Military complexes around the country are not only expaning facilities, but are at the same time creating a demand for such facilities. The above example clearly indicates that at least on a Federal level, this policy exists. Has it been proved that the government is at fault? The only clear choice is to allow the Coop to exist, especially since the government of the United States has set a precedent, a case in point that can clearly be seen by everyone. Douglas Schmidt Innocent Cavages. After contacting the telephone company, we were advised that we might not have our phone service restored until late Friday evening. Although we agree with the students fighting for the Record Coop’s survival, we do not feel that this should be an all out war effort towards Cavages. As in any war, there are casulaties, and we became these casualties, but we are students just like those that the Record Coop has as customers. Efforts should continue for the continued existence of our Record Coop, but not at the expense of your fellow students. None of us have purchased records from Cavages, so what do you have against us? Gary M. Klein Daniel P. Sweet Asking for Wise decision President Robert Ketter made a very wise decision to keep the Record Coop open in light of the fact that students here will not stand for allowing worthwhile programs and services to be wiped out at the whim of insensitive administrators. Ketter's own Vice President for Finance and Management, Ed Doty, displayed a total lack of discretion in the way he handled the matter from the start. It is at least reassuring that the President need not be governed by the inept decisions of his subordinates. While the Student Association acted out its role competently in dealing with the impending shutdown, it is more importantly the outraged, outspoken students who stood behind their Record Coop that saved it. Students do they only have to wield their power at this University often. show it more (gasp!) COMPETITION with poor Charley Cavage, owner of 10 other record outlets besides the one across the street. Why bother us CHARLES? We won’t bother you. The way we, as students, see it, Norton Hall is asses with no power to affect the decision to close the Record Coop.

We have been given the Royal Screw!! The lowly serf used to be able to barter for the magic vinyl discs with his measly pittance of wheat and potatoes, out now, our Lord Coop has been slain by your Knight, Lord “Profit” Margin. We can no longer afford these magic discs. Our Overlords, Benedict “Arnold,” Fetter, and his Vassel, “Duh-Duh” Dooty have apparently defected onto your side.

In regard to our problem with the Coop, I don’t know if this possible solution was proposed or not, but here it is anyway. Move the Coop out to EUicott. I’m sure there must be space out there. This would satisfy Cavage by being directly out of his area and still give us a Coop that all students will have access to. It is going to have to be moved to Amherst eventually, so why not now? Mr. Cavage can’t complain about our taking business away from him as we aren’t in his direct business area. With this approach we might persuade Mr. Cavage to drop his complaint and keep the Coop in operation. Mack Malawiiz �Backpage // defense To the Editor I wish to comment on the recent letter of Friday, Nov. 7 which criticized the Backpage policy of printing announcements in the paper immediately preceding the date of an event. As you can see from the Backpage of this paper, as well as that of many others, it is impossible to include all the announcements which are submitted, consequently the establishment of the policy. I am only a human being; I do not pretend to be anything else, and I do make mistakes. As for the Italian Club meeting, which seemed to be the basis for your entire argument, I apologize. It was an oversight on my part and I regret any problems which may have occurred because of it. It does not happen that often; the major cause of mistakes such as these is the refusal on the part of students to adhere to the given policy. Few students even bother to read the note at the top of Backpage and come in at 2 p.m. to hand in announcements which were supposed to be submitted at noon. Duplicate announcements are submitted for the same event, many of which have different times, dates and/or rooms. Am I supposed to guess which one is correct? In closing. I wish to challenge the people who criticize the way Backpage is run. First of all, you do not have to “resort” to The Spectrum for your announcements if you don’t like the way things are done, put up posters all over campus and see how much of a response you get. Lastly if anyone thinks that they can do a better job, I’d like to see it. I will be in the office (Room 355 Norton Hall) Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 1-2:30 p.m. If you’d like to try your hand at Backpage, I’d love to let you do it. Believe me, I’ve been doing Backpage for more than three years, and it’s more grief than it’s worth. - — -Ronnie Selk Backpage Editor Recto-cranial immersion portion of the rest of the students at this University) To the Editor are I would like to offer a few supplementary (and complimentary) comments on a letter from Douglass N.

It is high time that some pertinent facts be Women’s Studies College The College has advocated classes with enrollment limited to women only. Let’s look at their reasons. First, they say that men cannot intelligently discuss the topics of the course because they’re hung up about whether women are oppressed while women want to discuss how to cope with the problem. If the men are dominating the discussion, as indicated, to prevent progress of the class, the instructor does not have control of the class. Besides the men have the right to have this problem settled. If men are purposely being difficult, then they should be dealt with individually. Second, they say that women have trouble discussing these problems in front of men because they hit too close to home. This indicates that men are considered to have no sympathy a very erroneous belief held by many women. Women who believe this think that most men are sadistical animals at heart. Do most men enjoy killing, destroying, etc? Why did many young men refuse to fight in Vietnam? Why do many men fight for saving wildlife and the environment? One might say that some men are hunters who enjoy killing for sport. I have news for you: some women are also hunters who enjoy killing for sport!! I Your Host. Ronald McDonald, Pres. Burger King Arthur Treacher R-B A rhy Col. Sanders Howard & Johnson Harvey (.lino recognized about the - On the other hand, if women have trouble discussing the problems purely because men are present, then they need to undergo therapy, not to take a course for College credit. Third, they say that “Only a woman can know what it is to be a woman.” Do all women know what it is to be other women? Does Bella Abzug know what it is to be Mary Anne Krupsak? Do you know what it is to be me? Does Jerry Ford know what it is to be Dick Nixon? Or do women only have this power of divination? I’d say that this argument is purely made for propoganda purposes, it is the Any psychologist knows that proverbial “Big Lie the bigger the lie is, the more easily people will believe it. Fourth, they say that the classes are not unlawfully discriminating. Any person who believes in the ERA cannot believe this and remain consistent in their beliefs. Or maybe the double standard has found a new application? The whole argument indicates that women are more equal than men The arguments, when stripped down, are rather weak. Anyone who believes otherwise has not fairly considered the possibilities. The argument is a reversed image of the male chauvinist arguments.

There appears to be a rampantly growing cancerous disease known as “the plight of the economy” against which all or almost all decisions are being made. The fear 1 have is that only those things which can demonstrate financial gain or self-support will reamin after the cuts. 1 know you are genuinely distressed over the cuts, as are others in your administration. But services and facilities that provide student services are suffering the most. Is there no way for some leadership to step forward and take the side of the student? Is there no one left who realizes that if the students were not here none of us would be here; that the students should be the priority in all decisions? ’ With the Amherst Campus “freeze,” the closing of the coop, the potential cuts in intramurals and other sports, the potential cuts in faculty, grad assistants, the colleges, the student voices are rising in protest, confusion, fear and anger. What can be done? Can your leadership roles step forth? Are your hands “tied” by SUNY Central in Albany? Can you informally give us some information that can help us to save the “sinking ship”?

I have chosen to write you concerning the potentially catastrophic driving behaviors of one of • the inter-campus bus drivers. Scenario: 1 was walking from Norton Union to the bus stop at the Diefendorf Annex on the Main Street campus in a heavy rain, walking in the street close to the curb (on the side of the street closest to the annex, there is no sidewalk and the mud is heavy, as will be attested to by anyone who has to pass there regularly). The bus was just leaving the stop, so 1 raised my arm to flag it down. Instead of stopping, or indeed slowing, the bus sped up and whizzed by, cutting the corner dangerously close. The many violations of common sense, safety regulations, and simple consideration for another human being, are apparent. For safety’s sake, corners should be taken at a moderately slow pace, not a breakneck pace, especially on rainy days when the going is bound to be slippery. If a pedestrian is standing in the street considerable care should be taken not to hit him (do I really have to state this?). For consideration’s sake, the fact that I was 15 yards from the stop, waving dejectedly fora ride, in the pouring rain, should have had some sway in a decision to stop, plus the fact that when I leaped away from the path of the oncoming bus, it was that god-awful mud 1 landed in. Now, I’m not going to mention the suspicions I have harboured regarding any malicious intent on the part of the driver of the vehicle, nor will I mention the obvious pleasure he took in his behavior. For the sake of reasonableness, I will assume he drives like a maniacal idiot full time, all the time, and since people of the aforementioned persuasion should not be permitted to walk on the streets, much less to patrol the public avenues in a vehicle of tonage equivalent to that of a battle cruiser, I ask that some action be taken against whoever was piloting bus No. 259 at 4:30 p.m. on November 3, 1975. a) Reprimand and/or relieve him of his weapon, the previously mentioned battle cruiser b) Teach the poor man to drive c) Ridicule him till he flows down the nearest drain pipe, a puddle of his formerly vicious self. Seriously, do something. The Blue Bird Bus Company is employed directly by the University, indirectly by the-students that are the why and wherefore for the University. It is not in the interest of the company, therefore, to commit acts of genocide on its patrons, those who supply its daily bread (what is the old adage about biting the hand that feeds you?). Page twelve,.. The Spectrum Wednesday, 12 November 1975 . Christine Norell Unused calls To the Editor This letter is in regard to the $11 flat rate charged for campus phone service. I think it is about time the Telephone Co. stopped ripping-off students with their excessive service rate. Most phone calls made by students on campus are long-distance calls, either to family or friends. 1, for one, never make anywhere near $11 worth of local calls and I don’t think I’m wrong in assuming that neither do most other students. Last year.TVie Spectrum ran an article mentioning possibilities for various phone service contracts that would charge a much lower flat rate and separate charges for a large number of local calls made over a certain amount. It’s time students stopped paying a high fee for services they don’t even use, providing the phone company with an unfair profit for unused calls.

With the exception of students at UCLA, there was apparently little protest by students or administrators against administrators attending the conference. “There’s absolutely nothing wrong” with the conference, said Charles Sundberg, a dean with the UCLA placement office who attended the conference. “We have a responsibility to be informed about employment prospects.” “But if the CIA expected me to go out and find people for them,” he added, “they wasted their money on me.” The university officials learned about the specifics of a career in the CIA, and heard a speech by then-director of the CIA William Colby. The placement officers left the two-day conference “quite illuminated,” according to Angus Thurmer, Assistant to the Director of the CIA. “These people knew nothing about a career in intelligence.” Quality vs. tokenism Currently, said Thurmer, there are “not many” minority employees in the CIA. “We’re willing to look at blacks, Indians, Eskimos, anybody,” said Thurmer. “But we’re looking for quality, not tokensim.” The university placement officers approached the CIA conference with “skepticism but not hostility,” said Sundberg of UCLA. The participants asked questions concerning the “political climate” surrounding the CIA, and received “straight-forward answers,” added Sundberg. None of the participating University officials expressed any dissatisfaction with the conference to Too much! Suicide is stalking nations campuses by Cynthia Crossen Special to The Spectrum The UCLA student government is currently considering a resolution condemning “any form of administration cooperation in the CIA’s recruitment of minority students and calling for a serious examination of the University’s movtives in cooperating with such an effort.” The resolution calls for an end to all ties between UCLA and the CIA, and demands all correspondence between the CIA and UCLA be made public. Officials from the San Diego and Berkeley campuses of the University of California also attended the conference. A spokesperson for the Berkeley campus said that the CIA conference offer was treated the way it would be from any other government office, and that the placement office went ahead and sent a representative without notifying the chancellor’s office. CIA recruitment on college campuses is not unusual, though efforts at minority recruitment are more recent. At some schools, such as the University of Maryland and the University of California at Davis, CIA recruitment is being resumed after an absence of several years. At the University of Montana, recruitment efforts have been steady for a number of years, and the CIA even advertised openings in the student newspaper. If a person should ever feel a whole life of possibilities (CPS) stretching before him, it is during his days as a college student. For many students, college days arc a time of independence and freedom unlike any before or after, and the college degree, while no longer a promise of success, still means a good chance of it. But every year, at least 250 students find college life or life in general erable that th"y take their own lives. At least 750 others try. And the rate of student suicides, the second largest killer of students after accidents, has increased sharply during the past decade and a half. One Colorado psychiatrist believes the suicide rate correlates with events on campus, and the quieter the campus is, the worse. “When the campus is quiet people less involved in external causes you become more introspective, more involved in taking a look at yourself,” he explained. Other psychologists and social workers find reasons for suicide which exist on every campus every day. The director of the Mental Health Center at Iowa State University blamed student suicides in part on the inherent loneliness of big campuses. “The university student population is a higher risk group (than average),” he said. “A large university can tend to be pretty impersonal. You can be isolated emotionally in the very midst of it.” - — — Indecision A doctor at the Harvard University Health Service noticed that students often become depressed throughout their last year of college because they haven’t decided what they want to do after graduation. The same doctor also blamed modern society’s approval of impulsive acts, the “buy now and pay later” mentality, for student suicides. Phyllis Miller, a staff person at the Iowa State University counselling center, believes that suicidal tendencies become more pronounced at certain times of year. “Depression winter quarter is epidemic,” she said, “especially after Christmas until the end of February.” And depression seems to hit the freshman class harder than others. Miller said, because of academic pressures. “They come here after having been at the top of their class, only to find out that everyone else is also class valedictorian and president of the student council. They find out they’re just normal.” A spokeswoman for the Center for Studies of Suicide Prevention agrees that “identity is among the basic causes of suicide among college individuals. The student is often away from home for the first time, faces new and difficult academic challenges and is thrust into a social whirl he never experienced in high school,” she explained. * Insecurity Hits tops it all. Mm m g::'.. . to another. From one beer lover MICHIGAN 4*226 THE STROH BREWERY COMPANY, DETROIT, The person who commits suicide is never readily identifiable beforehand. Statistically, more women try but more men succeed, college students are more likely to commit suicide than their non-college peers, and suicidal students usually get good grades but never feel quite secure about them. After that, there are only individual cases of marital or dating problems, loneliness, guilt because of college rebelliousness and the necessity to adjust to a whole new community. To deal with potential student suicides, many communities and colleges have organized prevention centers with around-the-clock phone counsellors. But as Newsweek magazine pointed out, there has been no “demonstrable success anywhere in lowering the suicide rate.” Most psychologists attribute this to the fact that people who have already decided to commit suicide would not call prevention centers. But another explanation may be possible in light of a new attitude toward suicides. A counsellor at a suicide prevention center in Iowa said their policy was not “to talk people out of suicide. People have the right to life or nondife. If it helps them to have someone to talk to, then that’s what we’re here for.” Suicide may be a special problem of college because it is often the first time students have to be realistic about their futures. “College is a ruthless gardener,” a social worker at UCLA said. When a student realizes that his dreams may not bear fruit, that he can’t be a great writer, lawyer, doctor or accomplish great social change, then there is a sudden sense of failure, a stressful fear of disappointing one’s parents.” Wednesday, 12 November 1975 .

Such is the case with Dudes, a late incarnation of members from the ancient Family Tree and rather obscure April Wine. This group, let by Bob Segarini, has affected a guitar style that would set even the Statue of Liberty to tapping. Unfortunately, Segarini concentrated so hard on this that he totally ignored any sort of consideration for the other talents apparent in the group. The drumming, handled by Wayne Cullen and Ritchie Henman, is very nicely done; they know when to hold back or really crash through a number. Sadly, all the other instrumentals and vocals are muddled into unrecognizability on this album. The whole package itself is a dead giveaway to how amateurish the production actually is. Just take a quick look at the song titles: "Saturday Night," "I Just Wanna Dance," "Dancin' Shoes," "My Mind's On You," ad nauseum. All those are so cliched I hear my head ringing clear as a bell. They do serve their purpose, though. They are the only method of differentiating the songs. Even the graphics are ridiculously overblown.

Sly's always experimenting and using new techniques in his perpetual exploration of new modes of musical expression. It's a credit to Sly's genius that he usually succeeds in whatever endeavors he's into. His music has changed radically over the years, progressing from his "Dance to the Music," "I Want to Take You Higher" days to the more introspective and mellow style of the last few efforts. Sly seems to have calmed down from his self-destructive life style that threatened to end his career five years ago. That was when Sly made a habit of either coming very late, coming stoned to the hilt, or not coming at all, to his concerts. Fortunately, Sly has settled down somewhat, gotten married (the well publicized concert—wedding), and seems to have gotten his head together. - Tavern organic protein products.

From Austen’s novels he drew structures of order, hierarachy, manners, and courtship: such rigid social structures tend to focus attention on conversations (there’s little else to do) and Terms Of Endearment is full of magnificently charged conversation. Conversation, that is v in the Jamesian sense not dialogue— where what is said is, more often than not, far less important than the nuances of tone, diction, gesture, and context, that surround the exchange. McMurtry’s superb (and newly displayed) ability to convey the importance and subtle essences of what people do and think while their voices and ears are at work makes the talk of this novel flower, at times, into a world as large and lopsided as the novel can — * » » * McMurtry’s latest novel, Terms Of Endearment , is full of isolation., love breaking down, silence, petty passions and disturbingly obvious forms of hopelessness; it is also spilling over with complex love-triangles, May-December flirtations, gorgeous conversations, large passions, and winningly obscure forms of hope. It is not one, nor two, but three novels: the one McMurtry started out writing, the one he started along the way, and the, one we’ve ended up with an uneasy combination of the first two. I found the first fair, the second very good, and the third impossibly flawed and wonderful. The novel McMurtry started writing was intended to be the second book and completion of the trilogy begun with Moving On (the third book of the trilogy, published first this gets complicated) and continued (or is it vice-versa?) in AH My Friends Are Going To Be Strangers (the first book, published second). Terms Of Endearment clearly had to center about Emma Horton, the young wife of a graduate student in the early 60’s, for she was the only major unifying character of the trilogy not already either dead (as Danny Deck seems to be at the end of Strangers ) or defined (as Patsy Clark is in Moving On) by events chronologically in the future but already published particularly for its first 40 and last 60 pages - - — - (see?). its themes, Moreover, the flow of the trilogy also clearly indicated directions, and events of the future that Terms Of Endearment would primarily chronicle the painful and parallel dissolutions of Emma’s, Society’s, and The Novelistic Form’s various marriages, psyches and persons. And it does but only sort of. For a strange thing seems to have happened on the journey through Emma Horton’s hell: McMurtry fell dizzily in love with Emma’s mother Aurora Greenway and another book occurred. As often happens when May-December romances develop, the younger person quickly seeks out a new set of parents to sanction the affair and deliver a quick course in the manners of another generation (Mia Farrow discovered — - - - - create. widow, emissary to Houston Aurora Greenway from Boston, resolute corrector of others’ grammer is a self-constituting world. Within her ken, she imposes structure; through her command of languages, she is able to demand and receive manners, particular forms of courtship, and adherence to whatever set of values she has chosen for the day. Smart, ridiculous, sensitive, and strong-willed, Aurora dominates the novel; the bulk of the story revolves about her merry play with several suitors. She leads the men in intricate dances whose rules only she knows; they grow childish, fumbling, confused, and hopelessly in love. Meanwhile, back in the existential world, Emma Horton is slowly, painfully dying for lack of talk or — — - manners The two novels do not mesh together well; on the surface at least, McMurtry seemingly illustrating well the dangers of writing the second book of a trilogy last handles their relationship awkwardly: the seams are ill-concealed; the clashes between the novels, often violent; and McMurtry finally has to give up the attempt to unify them as things approach a climax by relegating the wrapping-up of Emma’s themes to an appendix, Book II. And yet, somehow, it all works. It works partly because there are numerous literary, ethical, verbal, and critical games at work under the surface of the novel that do serve to establish strange ties clumsily or between them. And it works mostly because McMurtry has succeeded in juxtaposing two worlds not whose likenesses and unlikenesses are richly resonant. The Novel of Sensibility sits there, silly and prim, in the middle and suggests of a more modernly self-conscious novel volumes about the ludicrous aspects of our own culture — — — - that we’re too bound up in it to see. Perhaps, one begins to think with a peculiar feeling, Jane Austen’s Emma wouldn’t (as one assumes) find our culture terrifying at all, but rather simply silly. Perhaps, the only possibility for real “casual” conversation contact between unattached men and women in a rigidly structured society is also the only possibility for real contact between men and women in a society where roles and manners are volatile and unstable. I’m not sure yet, in summary, that I’d like to see the new category of novel Larry McMurtry appears to have invented “The Modern American Nihilistic Novel of catch on; but I do know I liked Sense and Sensibility” this one.

Buffalo played its best game of the tournament to defeat the Bengals 15-6 and 15-3. Many of the Bulls were surprised at how poorly State played. “I thought Buffalo State would play harder,” commented Bulls coach Peter Weinreich. “They didn’t seem to be psyched," added Maloney. The key to the win once again was Buffalo’s spiking. Wroblewski, Price, Schlesinger and Marylin Dellwardt all spiked well while Maloney and Barb Fislar contributed with their brilliant serving. After a disappointing last half of the season, the players felt good about winning the championship. “I’m really happy,” said Wroblewski. “It was a total team effort, and we couldn't have done it without everybody.” The team seemed confident about the state tournament this weekend. “Our team is just as good as any team that’s going to be there,” Wroblewski said.

If nothing else, the Bulls displayed solid effort throughout the game, never giving up on themselves. They staged a courageous comeback attempt after being down 4-0 in the first period. “We didn’t give up or throw in the towel. We have some pride and desire, and I think that kept us going.” Wright said.

A total of 38 minutes in penalties was called in the game by referee Field, whose heady officiating prevented any serious battles. Wright attributed the scrappy play to opening night jitters, and suggested that the teams “were feeling each other out.” He also added that a little physical action gets the frustration out of the players’ systems. Buffalo’s “Kid Line” of Ronny Reisweber (LW), Ed Patterson (C), and Brian Grow (RW), played well despite the loss. The three freshmen skated hard all night long and got their first goal as collegians in the second period when Grow slammed a Reisweber rebound into the net. some scoring,” said Wright. Despite missing three scoring opportunities, Doug Davidson did a creditable fill-in job on the first line, although he normally centers the team’s fourth unit. Ray Gruarin, the second line’s center, played stoically, despite an ailing back, and in goal, Moore did a commendable job against the shell-shocking. “I’m satisfied with Moore’s play. He did a good job, although he was tired at the end of the game,” Wright said. For the Bulls to win a high percentage of their upcoming games, their defensive play will have to improve drastically. While they seemed confused at times, the defensive pairs did show promise. More experience playing together should help to solidify them even further. “We also have to work on our power play, and spend some time on it,” said Wright.

It seemed that every spike she hit was too tough for the opposition to handle as Buffalo eased into the championship. Wroblewski's serving was equally effective, as she scored twelve straight points in one stretch. Joanne Wroblewski is Athlete-of-the-Week. Wednesday, 12 November 1975 . The Spectrum .

Vice President for Finance and Management Edward Doty upheld his decision to close the Coop as of today, rejecting a compromise proposed by SA to work with the School of Management in handling the bookkeeping. ■’We've acted responsibly and in good laith. said SA Director for Student Activities Doug Cohen. -We're trying all the legal means in the University." He indicated that should these means fail, court action of some kind would be considered. SA representatives will otter Keller the same plan presented to Doty. The plan specifically called for one or two accounting students to receive work-study for keeping the Coop's financial records. Misunderstanding Accounting lor a S200.000 business would resume.’’ said SA a student's excellent on hxrk Steve Schwartz. for Student Affairs Director Improperly kept financial statements was one reason Doty cited for closing the Coop This, “a from to Cohen. resulted according misunderstanding" between former Coop worker Dave Parker, and Norton Hall Director James Gruber. ihe Coop's operation, specified when ii was formed, called tor “monthly" financial statements and receipt records. However, the Coop was allegedly told by Gruber that semi-annual statements would be sutficient. "Whose fault it is we don't know." said Cohen. "To run a Coop, you have to be creative, added Schwartz. "Keeping books is methodical. Having an accounting student doing it. a methodical person, we think would be a great compromise. Carl Cavage. owner ot a chain ol record stores in Buffalo, prompted Doty's decision by submitting a formal complaint that the Coop was unlaii competition, since it is run in a tax-suppoitcd Guidelines toi bv Ketter in 1971 Angered students have reacted to the complaint by boycotting Cavages' store in I he University Plaza and circulating petitions to keep the Coop open. Tuesday night, all the store’s windows were smashed. The petitions being circulated by SA. according Schwartz and Cohen, will determine how the student body teels about the Coop's continued operation, and garner student support, providing a base tor possible student “mobilization. Cobcn charged that Doty "does not understand how a S200.000 a year business can run on sheer energy." and student enthusiasm. “It seemed from the students' point ot view that Mr. Doty did not refute most ol our arguments, he said. “We raised the question that when it was small, it was considered legal When it was one table in the Union, no one complained." he noted. to Too big Doty’s main point ol contention, they both agreed, was simply that the Coop is "too big. It has been suggested, they said, that the ( oop either move to a location off campus, or go under the auspices of the Faculty Student Association (FSA). However. Schwartz said moving the Coop out ol Norton Hall "defeats the purpose." “The whole excitement of the thing comes from the fact that the Coop is a student service, on campus, run by students.' he said. Concerning FSA which runs Food Service and the University Bookstore. Coop representative Bruce Insana said, "We re wary of the profit-making urges of the FSA." SA lawyer Richard Lippes, did not accompany representatives to the meeting, although lie has advised the Coop and SA all through the controversy, and continues to do so The issue of the Coop's connection with Transconiinent Records was not a major one at the conference with Doty. Cohen said. The main issue was that the Coop had grown too hig. and too successful "It it hadn't become successful, this problem would never have come up. Schwartz, said. �Asante reappointed Attica trial Attica defendants Frank Smith (aka Big Black), Herbert X.

The Equal Rights Amendment which would prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex was defeated both in Erie County and the state by approximately 57-43 percent. Erie County voters also gavt the “thumbs down” sign Jq the state proposition, which would have provided for $250 million worth of low-income housing for the elderly, and all but one of the othr proposed amendments to the state constitution. Molefi Asante continue to be innovative, dynamic, and of service to the University and the Western New York community. Communication is basic to human society and as such, the study of how we communicate, in what places, and by what conventions, should be one of the fundamentals of contemporary education,” he asserted.

Apparently yes, claimed Lesley Kolsky to a small audience in Norton Hall last Tuesday. The lecture was part of Krael Awareness week Kolsky. who is a student at this University, spent over a year in Israel observing child-rearing on kibbutzim. She began by discussing the foundation of the kibbutz movement because "the basic attitudes and philosophies of the original founders are stressed in kibbutz education Close parent ties However, parents still maintain a close relationship with their children that many people argue exceeds the quality of a “normal" parent-child ties. "During the formative years, kibbutz parents arc particularly significant to their children as sources of affection and nurlurancc agents of socialization and transmitters of kibbutz values." she affirmed, denying that child)cn arc parentless.

"The purpose of the kibbutz was to create a new way of life in an old and hostile land." she explained.

The Spectrum Page seven �Conscientious workers EditPrial To the Editor Dump Doty President Ford changed his team, why can't President Ketter change his? Edward Doty's senseless and unfair decision to close down the Record Coop raises serious legal and ethical questions which cry out for the Vice President's resignation. Doty has demonstrated to the entire University community that his administrative competence, like his notion of the Coop's legality, is "marginal, at best.” Let's look at Doty's record. As chief financial officer of the University, Doty manages FSA, the very organization which has consistently mismanaged such campus services as the Bookstore and Food Service. Food Service suffers from massive turnovers in management and staff, insuring inefficiency and overall poor quality. A Faculty Senate subcommittee recently found the bookstore to be "unworkable," terming it little more than a campus "drugstore." By law, FSA cannot operate in the red. Consequently, inefficiency can be buried by raising prices to a captive student consumer market. If FSA were in the automobile industry, Doty would still be manufacturing Edsels. The students of this University are floundering between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea. -In an attempt to rectify the highway robbery which masquerades as "free enterprise," the students, with the seeming support of the University administration, created an innovative alternative to FSA's limited services and a host of off-campus rip-off artists. Doty's failure (by his own admission) to insure that Ketter's 1971 guidelines for the Record Coop were met are sufficient grounds for his dismissal. The ensuing chaos of Doty's inept decision to close the Coop clearly demonstrates his negative influence on the welfare of this campus. I am an employee of Food Service, and not only I, but my daughters, resent the article in The Spectrum (Oct. 29, 1975) written by Steve Green. I do not like being compared to your mother and to the wa/ she runs her kitchen. I do not line up my daughters with trays and give them numbers. We sit at the kitchen table and eat our supper like any other American family. I do not “smack” the food on their plates or on the students’ plates on the job. I may not have a college education, but I came to Food Service with experience from another cafeteria. As far as my background is concerned, I have never been arrested by the police, nor have I ever received a parking or speeding ticket. As far as being a sourpuss from being weaned on sour pickles no way. 1 consider myself and all my coworkers as being one big happy family.

But don’t look for a good reason to close the Coop and appease Cavage Finally, let me say that 1 am disgusted and disappointed at the University’s attitude towards its students. It appears that the students’ wishes and rights can be tossed aside, in favor of taking the easy To the Editor The most infuriating aspect of the Record Coop affair is the University’s closing of the Coop without showing “just cause.” After reading Monday’s (Nov. 3) issue of The Spectrum, it appears to me that the demise of the Ketter approved the request for a Coop in 1971, since, in his own words, "it is not a private enterprise," and moreover, that "the end Coop is predicated upon the fear of possible result could be termed cultural." financial reprisals, by local legislators, initiated by Four years later, Doty maintains that the Coop is an "illegal Cavage. This seems to be the real reason for the commercial enterprise." Why is it illegal now, and why was it legal then ? As Doty admits, the only thing that has changed since the Coop's inception is its sales volume. "Success doomed its failure," said Jim Gruber, Director of Norton Hall, a view which Doty clearly shares. Surely Doty would not suggest that the legality of a non-profit enterprise is a function of its annual sales volume. Yet, we are left with To the Editor no other conclusion. Many concerned and outraged students are directing their wrath at In reference to the comments made by Steven Carl C. Cavage. In light of the administration's history of bowing to the Green in his letter to the editor (The Spectrum, interestes of Western New York businessmen, Cavage, a pragmatic entrepreneur, is naturally out to get all he can. But the real blame October 2d, 1975J, in which he addresses himself to the “Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury:" Mr Green’s resides in Doty's wanton disregard for the welfare of the students of criticizing the full-time employees of hood remarks this University. Service were of such an unjustifiably disparaging nature that this member of the jury feels compelled not to let them pass without refute. The staff of Food Service is composed of some of the nicest, most conscientious and hard-working Once again, the Congress, in its efforts to put a lid on people I have met As of late, they are also some of governmental spending, is attacking the area of education. By nearly a the most constantly maligned. These people work 200 vote margin, the US. House of Representatives approved a just as hard as any other laborers to serve the measure that would terminate Gl education benefits for persons thousands of us that pass through the lines each day, entering the armed forces on or after January 1, 1976. The bill also receiving only an occasional cursory “thanks” in would end the PREP program, which provides education assistance to return service personnel before their discharge. Veterans qualifying for benefits prior to the cut off date would have until December 1987 to complete their education. Action from the Senate is expected soon. The legislators who voted to kill the Gl bill apparently feel the government has only one responsibility in educating its armed forces teaching them to defend our great country, no matter what acts of To the Editor aggression it commits under the banner of democracy. Our government sees fit to pour billions of tax dollars into defense, but it no longer sees Once again the blindfold of justice has slipped the need to give educational assistance to those men and women who to insure yet another long, hard and agonizing volunteer to serve faithfully in the military. This practice of cutting struggle for freedom. education and social welfare as the easy way to trim spending must This time the contestant is George Henderson, a continue no longer. It's a sorry state of affairs that our government has young black man sentenced to nine years in Attica no qualms about indoctrinating minds, just about educating them for first degree assault. While employed by Chevrolet, Henderson working the night shift got into an argument because of a misunderstanding with his foreman, this misunderstanding led to what appeared to be a struggle between the two. After this incident, Henderson returned to work only to be removed from his job because the foreman later reported being injured. With no prior record of any sort, Henderson’s Friday, 7 November 1975 Vol. 26, No. 34 only crime was that of obtaining Legal Counsel, who undoubtedly had no previous court room experience Editor-in-Chief Amy Dunkin and who felt that it was unnecessary to present to Managing Editor Richard Korman the court evidence that would have given the jury a Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen clear picture of the actual harassment and Business Manager - Howard Koenig way out ha Wallis Hard workers Dumping If Mr. Green has a bone of contention to pick with the policy-making administrators of Food Service, let him dispose with pretense and say so directly. But to launch into a vengeful, malicious attack upon a group of people whose worst crime has been to work diligently to make a living is an act of cowardice. This is not to say that those sfudent employees who now work in Food Service apd who were laid ott were not equally diligent and hard-working. Nor is it to lend support to the blatantly inequitable hiring and firing practices exercised by the administrators of Food Service. But just don't pick on the laboring staff of the Pood Service. They are good, honest people who deserve a good deal more respect. than they have been getting.

He’s bewildered over the fact that after four years of employment at Chevy, he’s never had any problems with management, and ironically his had been transferred to the night shift because of his aggressive personality and harassing tactic with the day shift employees.

This is just another instance of the many bogus and superficial comparisons that now pass for musical criticism.

Joking, imitating favorite performers John Prme and Jackson Browne, accepting a gift from and applauding a member of the audience, and generally having a good time, Bonnie made the audience feel that they were in her living room, rather than a theatre on a freezing evening. Freebo, her infamous and favorite bassist, livened up the proceedings by demonstrating his talents on the tuba in "Give It Up." The crowd cheered her bottle-necking talents, aptly displayed in Chris Smither's "I Feel the Same" and "Sugar Mama," from her new album. Alan Fland, her keyboard player, received a huge ovation after "Good Enough for You," a tune Orleans penned for her. Every woman in the audience related to her performance, and none of the men seemed to mind. For her encore, she performed Eric Kaz's "Slowin' Away" and Steve Stills' "Bluebird," to leave us on an up note. Be it modern poets John Prine or Jackson Browne, her own songs, or classic blues, Bonnie Raitt is one of the most dynamic performers around today. Opening the show was Tom Waits, an unusual performer, best known for his composition "01' 55," written for a Buick Roadmaster. He sings and speaks of waitresses and cars, diners and small towns.

Headlining at Century Monday night, Ms. Raitt proved that she can play the blues as well as Paul Butterfield and sing them as well as Janis. Opening with Jackson Browne's "I Thought I Was A Child," Bonnie added a slightly bluesy note to that and all her numbers. She favors an old hollow-body Gibson, and produces a range of sounds from old Ray Charles numbers to Stevie Winwood's "Can't Find My Way Home."

Ringo Starr is the Pope, in cowboy boots and spurs, with a flock of followers who fill their private chapels with portraits of the saints they worship, holy men on the order of Elton John and Peter Townshend. He responds to the observation that "Truth is stranger than fiction" with a lovely bit of down-home theology; "We've kep goin' for 2,000 years on that one!" And then there’s Franz Liszt himself, sexy superstar hero of Lisztomania, who makes love to this evening's lucky choice from the waiting multitude to the beat of a metronome, reaching over every few seconds to speed it up. As George Sand, Lola Montez and a wide assortment of countesses, princesses and garden-variety groupies drool at his feel, he drinks champagne and autographs silhouettes to be tossed out to the thousands of screaming fans who go wild every time he plays "Chopsticks." going. particularly rock to inundate seem Buffalo around this time of year.

Generally conceived as commentaries on the excesses of the Romantic movement in nineteenth century arts (and its more contemporary counterparts), his own works mock by far exceeding even the most absurd aspects of his subjects' lives. Superstud composers are one thing, but eight foot penises attached to live actors serving as benches for for lack of a better description, something else chorus are, girls rows of — - - - entirely.

The same old hype between October literally opportunities to March crawl and with spend one's money on live music. Favorite acts, such as Chick Corea or the Kinks, return to the city annually to the delight of their fans, while many others, hot on the wings of the promotion by hopeful industry, flash as briefly supporting acts, then disappear, to no one's great surprise or dismay. The objective of the wise listener should therefore be to see as many quality acts as possible, without being exposed to enough crap to lose interest in music altogether. These desires often preclude each other, as the wise record executive will without fail railroad his concert promoter into sticking the latest in bargain-bin fodder on the bill with any good act. Sunday night's performance of Little Feat and the Jamaican band Toots and the Maytals was a of such textbook example traditional portrayal of young Wagner is Paul Nicholas, last seen as Tommy's gleefully sadistic Cousin Kevin. From an earnest youth in a sailor's cap with the single ominous word "Nietzsche” emblazoned across its band, he develops into a goose-stepping vampire, sucking away his sponsor's music, daughter, and, finally, his life.

In any events. Toots did not return for an encore, and the MC explained (to very few catcalls) that the Maytals had to catch the next plane back to the islands. Honestly. To return to my original point of departure, the “educated music consumers" (cited in radio ads for this concert) should be on the new lookout for promising talents, as well as the visual of commercial exploitation current trends. While Little Feat is tedium which is almost inherent any of the aforementioned in styles Inclusion of the Feat as part of southern rock current the syndrome is unfair, for although they are at times reminiscent of the Allman Brothers, it is through a common bond of background, rather than imitation, as is the case with the various Marshall Tucker-type bands currently on the scene. Lowell George, a master of slide guitar style, never falls into the familiar trap of Duane Allman imitation, but uses a mellower, open-string blues accompaniment method, slightly akin to the early work of Johnny Winter. Singing feet George sings the blues as well as any non-blues singer I've ever heard, possessing inflection and control that would make Greg Allman flinch, were anyone to be so crass as to compare the two of them. Keyboardist Payne and chicanery. The director's vision of religion as hyped-up pop commerciality and vice versa reappears here with a frustrating similarity to the faith healer's scenes in the earlier film; we expect Eric Clapton to come bopping through the cathedral with his guitar/icon at any moment, but Ringo Starr is as appropriate a substitute as any.

The scenery in question is, of course, the theater itself, a relic of the bygone era of vaudeville, and one of this city's only real was landmarks. The show provided by Lowell George and Little Feat, but I can't honestly say that I blame anyone for not by no means new talent, they are a group which displays (hints at?) enough talent and potential to guitarist Barrere, in addition to excelling on their respective instruments, write and sing as well them for list, your qualify however short, of bands to see as Lowell himself, and the next year. poor turnout and audience reaction, the Feat proved they can and will continue to entertain. A dubious recording history and a boring appearance at Clark Hall in 1972, excessive critical along with acclaim, had me wary of the group, but the excellence of some of their work made this concert unavoidable. The sound of Little Feat as they stand now (Lowell George, Bill Payne, Paul Barrere, Richard Harward, Ken Gradney and Sam Clayton) is better than it's ever been, probably due to the band's current size and makeup. Despite minimal three of them join with Sam Clayton in providing air tight soul harmonies behind whomever is singing lead at the time. The rhythm section, consisting of Clayton on congas/drums/ percussion, Ken Gradney on bass and Paul Harwell on drums, is very, very organized, although the sleazy, syncopated funk which they do so well may have put some of the less familiar listeners to sleep. On the songs "Rock and Roll Doctor" and "Skin it Back," the band's total concentration on back-bending bump rhythm slowed the songs down, losing some of the effectiveness of the original recordings. The audience a kick where it counts, however, by the songs "Atlanta" was given An old kind of excitement The of the complexity harmonic and rhythmic textures emanating from these six seasoned musicians is reminiscent in many ways of the Band, particularly because the four of them are excellent vocalists.

Geremia's tradition is the blues; he's for example, Blind Lemon Jefferson's "Bad Luck Blues" and Robert Johnson's "Hellhound On My Trail." Most of his songs, though, are his own; look for them on his Folkways and Adelphi albums. His voice is loose and drawly; his recorded, accompaniment, on guitar and piano, is sturdy and interesting. (Geremia is especially good on slide guitar.) Since his at the late Buffalo Folk Festival in 1973, he's managed to make it back about once a year; the 1975—1976 version should be worth your time.

Lou did an especially rousing version of the drinking song, "Good Ale," (probably not provoked by Food Service's beer) as well as an uproarious dialect version (Northumbrian, I think) of the Nativity "Joe the self-employed with story, ca-PITalist carpenter” taking a bus to Bethlehem and encountering an archangel with "a Frisbee around his head." And if he really wants to scotch what he describes as "the rumor that I'm a superb concertina player," he'd better stop playing things like the fiddle-tune medley he squeezed out to everyone's delight.

What good are dreams unless they are translated in reality by deeds? Around the world, Salesian missioners help their flock by giving them ways to help themselves. Whether it is agricultural training or technical training for a trade they can learn, people are encouraged to find their own niche, their own way of betterment, their own road to human dignity and self help.

It has some truly sparkling moments, but it has its faults, small as they may be. The band has a new addition. John Scofield has Billy Cobham, A Funky guitarist. Abercrombie as John Abercrombie's recent solo effort is the probable cause for his leaving. Abercrombie was a major part of the band, and the vacancy left by him was an enormous hole to fill. Scofield holds his own in this replaced solo effort after leaving sire Mahavishnu Orchestra, Jol McLaughlin's influence was quite apparent in this album. Crosswinds, his second album, showed little McLaughlin influence, and exemplified Cobham's drumming, with more soloing. Total Eclipse, the third album, and possibly his finest, was completely void of Mahavishnu influence. Cobham made evident his talent Monday, November 10, the Department of Music will sponsor a fine instrumentals, using the percussion as the backbone. The fourth album, Shabazz, was his first and only live album. It proved that Cobham's superior drumming was not a However, there was an studio-supported feat. unbalanced mix of percussion with music and the percussion was much too dominant. This new album brings about another change in Cobham and band. The first side of this album is excellent. It consists of five songs and three drum solos. The title cut is the only one lacking the Brecker brothers. It has other hornmen, though, and comes off quite well. The best song on this side, and possibly on the album is one called "Thinking of You." It's a beautiful instrumental, as all Cobham songs are, with just the right balance of horns, guitar and drums. "Some Skunk Funk" is done quite well on this album, but it's not quite as tightly done as on the position. He may lack some of the clarity that Abercrombie mastered, but he is quite adequate at guitar. He makes Abercrombie's loss almost unnoticeable. Michael and Randy Brecker supply the saxophona and trumpet, respectively, on all but one track. Their recent album brought them recognition, but they still remain with Cobham. One song, "Some Skunk Funk," comes from The Brecker Brothers. m Each of Cobham's albums brings a new change the Cobham style. Spectrum was Cobham's first Brecker brothers' solo effort. Side two is where the only real disappointment of the album lies. "A Funky Kind of Thing" is a boringly drawn out drum solo. Cobham is indeed one of the foremost percussionists, but a nine and a half minute solo stretch can get on one's nerves. The other songs on this side are quite good, making up for the one and only mistake of this album. Cobham goes through still another change on this album. His drumming isn't quite as dominating (with the exception of "A Funky Kind of Thing") as on most of his previous albums, giving the proper balance to the accompanying music. Billy Cobham has evolved into one of the finest jazz musicians, and this album displays his talents quite well. —Doug AIpern Cut, Style & Blow Dry Most Reasonable Price in Town! 37.00 1098 Elmwood Ave. Buffalo, N.Y. 886-8650 ����������������� The UB DANCE CLUB will be having a coffeehour and showing Martha Graham Films Monday Nov. 10 , at 7:30 pm Clark Hall/Dance Studio Everybody’s Doing ItI • ALL ARE WELCOME • BACKGAMMON Gomes AN Sizes And Styles In Stock Moke Us You« Heodquorters For All Your IAS BE Bockgommon Needs fflendteson’s contemporary furnishings RAVEL T 4441 HARLEM AT MAIN 839-5667 c5We x°.

I last I would study with a group of thought that at in all respects, conscientious, courteous, and professional studentfk Many times when I see my colleagues. I am sickened at heart with their immaturity, rampant disrespect for each other, and their unwillingness to accept their workloads. I am disgusted whenever I listen to my fellow Medical students belittle their classmates, rant, rave and carry on like sixth graders. They are even disrespectful to our professors. I wonder if such a student, with so little respect for his colleagues, would have any compassion for the sick, the needy, or the impoverished who can never hope to "pay" the physician? The most insulting thing that I see many of my fellow students do is to carry on the sophomoric tradition of studying for exams instead ot studying for the pleasure of learning. I can’t believe how many times I've heard something like, "Why should I study that; it won't be on the exam!!” I submit that this attitude is only characteristic of the immature student. The most damning thought that crosses my mind is that all of-us are lucky to be in Medical School. We all can name ten or more friends who do not share our good fortune. My thoughts are not printable when I hear such things as “Don’t give us any more work today; we’ve had enough!,” or “I don’t think it’s fair to hold a review session if all the class can’t attend because that would be an unfair advantage to those who participate.” To those who are offenders: Ask yoursell it you belong in Medical School and think about yourself.

Readily available unemployment benefits, expectations that the unemployed will be recalled by previous employers and inconvenient geographical locations of many positions. The four-day week? One solution for employers forced to (CPS) reduce their payrolls is to cut their work week rather than their workers, according to a new government report This work-sharing plan was suggested by Lillian L. Poses in a report published by the New York City Human Rights Commission and would involve modifying state unemployment insurance laws. 'The Poses plan would enable recession-injured employers to spread work through a tour-day week with workers making up a large part of their lost earnings for the fifth day through unemployment insurance. Calling the plan “an alternative to outright layoffs,” The New York Times argued such changes would greatly lessen personal hardships for workers. “Not the least among the benefits of the work-sharing arrangement.” editorialized the limes.

Page nineteen �i the bull pen by David J. Rubin Sports Editor Tomorrow night the Bulls open their 1975-76 varsity hockey season with a lot of new wrinkles. Mike Klym, all-time everything for the Bulls, is gone. Coach Ed Wright has a new system which he thinks will vastly improve last year’s spotty defense, and the Bulls are playing in a new home arena. The Tonawanda Sports Center. But perhaps the most important thing that is happening to Buffalo hockey won’t make any difference in their won and lost record. For the first time in years, students will be able to watch the Bulls in action on television ’ Act V, which, for lack of a better name, is Buffalo’s “television club,” has negotiated with International Cablevision to broadcast University sporting events on Tuesday evenings over local cable television. The broadcasts will also be aired on the closed circuit sets in Haas Lounge. This project is the brainchild of its coordinator Carl Ferraro who is using the facilities of Act V as a basis for a study of the condition of athletics at Buffalo. Along with the telecasts of the contests themselves, Ferraro has plans for televising interviews with key coaches like Wright, as well as faculty, administration and student body members. Hockey is not the only sport to be covered, either. Next semester, basketball coverage will begin, and perhaps even a program or two about wrestling might be taped. Ferraro embarked on this project because he is very concerned with the decline of athletics at Buffalo, and he is also interested in the attitudes of the various factions on campus toward this declipe. He hopes these shows can shed some light on what the real opinions are. The Act V program is certainly unique on campus. It will bring Buffalo athletics to the people of the city of Buffalo. It also will profile (he collegiate athlete and will examine the place of athletics in the University. Act V’s conclusions could prove to be critical. If the programs are generally well received by the public, then the conclusions these programs draw will be regarded seriously by all concerned parties. These television broadcasts are the only vehicles currently available on campus which could improve relations between the Voices ol Clark Halt, Norton Hall and the Buffalo Community. Of course, nobody knows just yet if these programs are going to be worth anything at all. They might fall Hat on their faces. But it is imperative that anyone concerned with the athletic program at Buffalo watch at least some of these shows. There are very few, if any. people around campus who really know a II I he arguments which circulate about athletics. Hopefully, these Act V programs will increase people's awareness so that the opinions they form will be based more on fact than it has been in the past. Watch.

Genesee took advantage of Buffalo defense by scoring 12 points early in the game in spite of strong spiking and blocking by Wroblewski and sophomore Alexandrina Price. The Buffalo players weren’t communicating, and Genesee had little trouble defeating them. a confused I Brooklyn tournament matches. “We’d get the edge on a team, then we’d lose,” said junior Marilyn Dellwardt about Buffalo’s disappointing double loss, 4-15, 14-16 to Brockport and 15-12,9-15,8-15 to Genesee CC. Brockport began the match by defeating a surprisingly tough Genesee team, and then took the court against Buffalo. The Golden Eagles completely overwhelmed Buffalo’s defense with its strong serving and powerful spiking. Buffalo’s offense failed entirely,-and the players only managed to score four points in an easy win for Brockport. Wroblewski and Bardak shine Joanne Wroblewski and Judy Bardak helped jump to an early 14-2 lead in the second game with their exceptional spiking and blocking. With a seemingly sure win ahead, Buffalo relaxed its defense, and Brockport took advantage by scoring nine straight points, Buffalo had nine chances to make the game point, but the tight Brockport defense prevented a Buffalo win, and it was the Eagles who finally won with only one second left on the clock. “There was no excuse for us to lose that second game,” said Wroblewski. Buffalo’s numerous serving mistakes at the beginning of the first game in the Genesee match allowed Genesee to capture an early lead. With Tami Thompson serving, Dellwardt made some good spikes to help Buffalo score a quick six points and grab the lead, Buffalo then settled down for an easy Buffalo What? Buffalo started the third game with the same confused, disorganized style of play. Genesee was leading 11-1 when Buffalo finally woke up and at the beginning of the started playing like it did season. With Price and Dellwardt Harvey 8t spiking, Buffalo managed to score enough points to make the game exciting, but the Genesee lead was too much, and Buffalo suffered its second loss of the 23 25 26 28 night. Why, after such a promising start, has Buffalo fallen apart? “We’re sleeping on defense," stated Price. “We should have beat Genesee, but we fell behind on defense.” Dellwardt thought the team had a different problem. “Serve receiving is the key in the game, and that’s our main weakness,” she said. Everybody seems to agree that the recent the team. epidemic of injuries has affected Wroblewski is suffering from a bad knee which doesn’t effect her play, but limits her playing time. Dellwardt has a sprained ankle. Price has an ear infection and Barb Eislar and Michele Saffire also are bothered by injuries. In spite of their problems, the team thinks they’ll do well in the State tournament which is just one week away “We just have to work a little harder,” said Price. “We have to play our game and not fall apart.” “We have a lot of potential,” added Dellwardt. “We just have to get psyched and stay psyched.” Wroblewski was even more optimistic. "We’re going to win the State tournament,” she declared.

Page twenty-pne �A MESSAGE FOR PRESIDENT SADAT At the United N&tions earlier this month, your representative co-sponsored a resolution in the Third Committee equating Zionism with racism. So that you will not misjudge the temper statement; of the American people, we urge you to read this ".this is an obscene actT With these words the US. Representative to the United Nations Third Committee denounced the vote equating Zionism with racism, a vote which he said put the UN “at the point of officially endorsing anti-Semitism.” How are Americans to respond to what our government s spokesman called “a supreme act of deceit...a massive attack on the moral realities of the world”? 1) We commend our government and our representatives at the United Nations— Ambassador Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Clarence Mitchell Jr., and Leonard Garment—for leading the struggle at the UN against the perversion of truth. We are proud of our country and its spokesmen for recognizing that Zionism, the national liberation movement of the Jewish people, derives from the very principles of liberty and justice for all that inspired the founding of our own country. 2) We welcome the action of those Western democracies and African and other states that resisted the threats and pressure of the Arab oil billionaires and refused to take part in the immoral act of condemning Zionism. 3) We will remember those totalitarian dictatorships —Arab, Communist and Fascist that made Friday, October 17 a day of shame in the history of nations. We will not forget how Chile voted, nor that Cuba joined hands with the Arab states in sponsoring the resolution. We will not forget that East Germany voted for it; that Brazil, India, Mexico and Turkey went along; that Franco Spain and Soviet Russia joined Idi Amins Uganda. All voted for anti-Semitism. 4) Finally, we will resist the obscene attempt to equate Zionism with racism as we defend democracy against religious bigotry and anti-Americanism in the United Nations and around the world. For we know that this anti-Zionism campaign is an attack against the State of Israel, against the Jewish religion, against the Jewish people. It is an assault against the values of democracy and civilization that all Americans cherish. It is a horrifying reminder of the Nazi campaign that began with words of hate and ended with acts of extermination. In this struggle, we look for support to all men and women, of every race and religion, who love freedom. If you are moved to join with us in this effort, please use this coupon.

The effects of that strike are first being felt now as periodicals discover they are unable to obtain adequate newsprint supplies to meet their demands. Frank Gerhardt, General Manager of the Hamburg Pennysavef which prints The Spectrum has asked the paper’s editors to limit the size of the issues so he will not run out of newspaper before the strike ends. Gerhardt already has suspended the production of two of Hamburg’s regular Pennysaver publications so he can continue to print The Spectrum. A spokesperson for The Spectrum said the newspapers may be smaller in the next few weeks In order to limit the consumption of newsprint until the strike ends, or a temporary printer with adequate supplies of paper can be found. Premium prices While the effect of the strike on The Spectrum has been minimal, many other papers have taken dramatic steps to reduce their need for paper. Domestic and some Canadian suppliers who are not effected by than normal, said a spokesperson for The New York Tinies. The price hikes have forced many newspapers into the red and caused others to curtail operations. The New York Times has reported third quarter deficits on its newspaper operations. Woody Wardlow, Managing Editor of The Buffalo Evening News said Friday, “We saw the strike coming.” In preparation for an anticipated shortage and as a hedge against inflation, the News ordered far more-paper than it expected to need during the summer months, Wardlow said. Whereas the News normally has a 30 day stock of newsprint, at one point in early October, the production department had stockpiled a 90 day supply, Wardlow added. This involved tying up large of amounts which most capital publications cannot afford to do. Close to home The newsprint at the News is now down to a 30 day supply and unless the strike ends, the paper will be forced to curtail operations In some ways. “Cutbacks would come in the areas of fewer photos, smaller photos, smaller headlines and elimination of stories to reduce page numbers,” according to Wardlow. Already the paper has begun to “maximize usage of page size in classified sections” by printing nine columns on what was formerly an eight column page, Wardlow said. However, he explained that The Buffalo Evening News and other local papers are in a better situation than others throughout the nation due to easy access to Canadian suppliers unaffected By the strike. Newspapers in the East and South have been particularly hard hit by the strike due to their distance from suppliers who are generally located in the Pacific Northwest and Canada.. The New York Post according to Managing Editor Robert Spitzen, “has reduced its size three times in the past two years to help offset first the rising cost of newsprint and now the shortage of it.” The Daily News has also dinmk in size in the past few weeks. The New York Times Board of Directors has been debating for the past three months whether to shrink the paper or not, said the Times spokesperson. After reported third quarter losses and new appointments to the Board of Directors, the source indicated that a smaller page size is iminent. The New York Times and The Daily News have been able to obtain newsprint at “premium” prices. Wardlow said The Buffalo Evening News sold some newsprint to the New York dailies at a premium. Many small town newspapers had to shut down due to their inability to obtain newsprint at reasonable costs. Budget squeeze Special SUNY programs cut by Mike McGuire Contributing Editor amount of cuts suffered by the SUNY College of Industrial and Labor Relations at Cornell was difficult to gauge, because some cuts were restored by the slate’s Supplemental Budget. Specialized and “statutory” colleges run by the State University of New York (SUNY) have been hit by budget cuts for this year and next, but few have Attrition had to lay off faculty or drop Marchand pointed out that the to a cuts went deeper than may seem programs, according survey by The Spectrum. apparent from the figures because Statutory colleges are schools many schools in the life sciences run by SUNY at- non-SUNY have been hard-hit by rapid universities. inflation in the costs of medicines colleges and Specialized colleges teach subjects and other chemicals. However, Marchand said the not normally taught at private Veterinary School has been able liberal arts institutions. At Cornell University, where to make all personnel cutbacks so SUNY runs four colleges in the far by attrition (not filling otherwise private Ivy League vacancies) rather than layoffs.

Programs in labor and management and in adult a playoff berth, the first step to the Super Bowl. The following At the Cornell School of Industrial and Labor Relations, Business Director George Calvert said that while personnel and programs will have to be cut back, the extent of the cutbacks is still being assessed. Programs in labor and management and in adult education are being cut back already, however. At SUNY’s Maritime College, located at Fort Schuyler in Bronx, York, Business Affairs New Director Louis Kent said the budget had been cut $50,000. While priorities in case of further cuts have yet to be decided, Kent said the current reductions have been dealt with by “belt-tightening.” The college has cut back on equipment order, supplies and overtime. Kent has even removed two out of four flourescent bulbs from his office. If a secretary is out sick, the college doesn’t call in temporary help as it once did. Kent said that Maritime only has two programs, an Students at the Syracuse College of Environmental SCience and Forestry study foliage in the Syracuse area. The program is one of several sponsored by SUNY at non-SUNY schools which have been hurt by budget cuts. undergraduate and a graduate, and that because the programs are a fairly-integrated study of maritime skills, program cutbacks are nearly impossible. The graduate program, he said, is almost self-sustaining anyway. Kent said he is confident that layoffs will not have to be made, although some positions might be lost through attrition. Impact assessment At yie Syracuse College of Environmental Science and Forestry, another SUNY statutory college, assistant to the Business Director Peter Wiltsie said simply, “We’re continuing to assess the impact for this year and next.” Regarding SUNY’s relatively new School of Optometry, on East 25th Street in New York City, director of Business Affairs Sigbert Borg felt the school was unlikely to be hit with severe cutbacks because of its “uniqueness.” It is the only optometry program in SUNY, Borg said. In addition, it is immune to program elimination because “we have only one program, so if you cut out out programs, you cut optometry,” according to Borg. Borg did say, however, that the school had delayed moving into new quarters, hadn’t increased its faculty as fast as scheduled, and cut back in supplies and equipment. . �Under attack Students to have a say in financial cutbacks by Joe Chatterton Campus Staff Writer Students of the State University of New York (SUNY) and the City University of New York (CUNY) may discuss the possible consequences of budget cuts on the cost of education at three one-day hearings in November The hearings will be sponsored by the Student Association of the State University (SASU) and the Student Advisory Committee of the College Scholarship Service (CSS) and will be held in New York City, Albany and Buffalo on November 20, 21 and 22 respectively. SASU is a five-year-old coalition of 26 SUNY student governments. SASU has in the past lobbied successfully to prevent $2 million from being cut from SUNY’s financial aid program. < CSS funding CSS, which administers tests used nationally to determine student financial need, is funding the hearings in New York State and in other parts of the country. Joel Packer, legislative director of SASU, organized the hearings. The hearings will help develop a representative picture of the problems students face with the national and state financial aide programs. ' : . Packer said. “The whole procedure will be fairly informal. The student will not be grilled or interrogated, but will instead find a sympathetic pan,” - SASU labelled ineffective by Kathy Driscoll Spectrum Staff Writer The University’s role in the Student Association of the Stale University (SASU) is currently under attack by some Student Association (SA) members. According to Inter-Residence Council President, David Brownstein, the University is not getting its money’s worth out of SASU. Brownstein made a motion to withdraw from SASU at an SA Student Affairs Task Force meeting earlier this year. The motion was tabled. “SASU leaves itself open for many insurmountable problems,” Brownstein said. He cited SASU’s leadership and its student services as two of the main difficulties which affect this University. ' SA President Michele Smith said the basic problem comes from different people’s concepts of SASU’s role, “Is SASU a lobby service, a governing organization, or both?” she asked. To iron out this, problem, students should get more involved in the organization, rather than withdraw from it, she said. .... according to Packer. • The panel will mainly be comprised of students, including the heads of SASU and the CUNY Student Senate (USS). Among the panelists will be Robert Kirkpatrick, SASU President, Jay Hershcnson, USS Chairman, and representatives of the Coalition for Public Higher Education. Direct contact “The purpose of these hearings is to let us bear from the students directly,” Packer said. “The hearings will bring out in the open the many problems the New York students do face, problems which make it difficult, if not impossible, for many of them to start or finish college. When all the evidence has been gathered at the hearings, SASU will take it to the state legislature. “We hope to refine our proposals so they can be closer to what the students really need,” Parker said. “AFter that, we’ll go for the lawmakers.” Parker is hopeful that the panel will hear froth a wide range of people, particularly groups such as Third. World students, part-time, veterans and continuing students. “Without students testifying at any one of the three hearings the project will not be successful. Up until now we have had a lot of interested people, but no definite commitments,” he said.

Schwartz stated that SASU’s travel service, block booking program, and purchase power are far inferior to the services at this University. He questioned whether the money spent in yearly dues (close to $10,000) was worth the results the University obtains from SASU. “How do you put a price tag on student representation through SASU’s lobby power and inter-communication between State schools?” Schwartz asked. SA Executive Vice President Art Lalonde said, “SASU is not doing their Job.” He claimed SASU is made up of the “elite of the elitests,” referring to the group of student leaders who represent various student governments at SASU meetings. “1 think we need a centralized student association in the state, but not one like SASU,” he said. VETERANS FACTS- Lalonde believes that students should be more concerned over where their money goes and that the $10,000 in SASU dues could be better spent elsewhere. “Not enough students know about SASU,” he said. “I hope that the motion to withdraw is brought up again.” However, the Vice President for Campus Affairs of SASU, Stu Hamowitz, explained that SASU provides services and programs which “are not overtly visible.” These include the SASU lobby group and an information' and communication service between SUNY schools. SASU is currently meeting with the SUNY Central Administration about the Record Coop here. If the State University at Buffalo decides to withdraw, Hamowitz said, SASU would have to redirect its budget priorities and decide on alternate financial assistance.

Department of Health Education representatives were assured by President Robert Ketter in a meeting last week that the salaries would be paid at least another year, and that a committee to study the future of athletics on this campus will be formed to formulate a longer-range funding program. Executive Vice President Albert Somit, in a letter to faculty and student organizations, requested eight to ten nominations for this panel, which will also seek to evaluate the demand for the athletic services now available. 'Patchwork' funding Somit said the coaches will be retained during the 1976-77 year through “patchwork” funding, but gave no description of where that funding would originate. The coaches’ salaries amount to about $154,000, according to the University budget planning committee which met during the summer Health Education Dean Harry Fritz said he feels that figure “is a little on the high side.” He said the coaches “were never really out” of the 1976-77 budget, since the plans which excluded them were only proposals” in the request stage,” and the figures in it were not entirely “realistic.” The University budget committee, faced with a $288,000 reduction in funding from Albany, achieved 53 percent of the cut by eliminating the coaches’ salaries. This cut must still be absorbed elsewhere. Didn’t ask Fritz said he had been given “no indication of where the funds would come from,” and he “didn’t ask.” Student Association President Michele Smith has expressed concern over the reinstatement of the coaches without an explanation for the source of the funds. “1 was a member of the budget committee, and I voted against writing the coaches out of the budget,” she said, “So I’m pleased my position has been accepted. “But I think we have a right to know where this money is coming from, and how this short range decision was made,” she said. U.B. Foundation President John Carter said that although the organization in the past has aided the athletic program financially, no proposal for aid has been presented thus far to the Foundation’s executive committee this year.

In addition to the false alarms, vandalism of fire warning systems is increasing creating a potentially dangerous situation, he added. The vandalism includes breaking fire alarm box arms and clipping wires connecting sounding horns and buzzers. This last practice is particularly dangerous, because all alarm sounding devices within a quad are tied to one line. Hunt said. He explained that if one sounding nom is broken, no horns in that quad will function, even if the alarm boxes are working. This means that in the event of a real fire, all persons will have to be notified personally through their resident advisors. The problem of responding to alarms is becoming increasingly difficult. There have been so many false alarms on the Amherst campus that many students are becoming apathetic to the potential danger. Many simply ignore the alarms, “It’s gotten to the point where I don’t even bother getting up, let alone go downstairs. 1 think that if there actually was a fire, I’d just bum, unless someone dragged me out,” said one Fargo Quad resident. Apathy ,y fhe situation has become so bad that this feeling is typical of most students that I know at Amherst. These practical jokes are more hazardous than anything I can think of,” added another. Th-se dangers were stressed by Hunt and Director ,' Fire Safety Phil Murray. Hunt said that one night in the Wilkinson Quad they had five false alarms in a row. He added that they are averaging three or four false alarms per week. “The fire alarm boxes should never be pulled unless their really is a fire,” Hunt insisted. When an alarm is sounded, assuming the sounding devices are working, all residents must be evacuated from the area. The resident advisors are in charge of clearing the zone and once cleared, they must search the area and verify whether the alarm is real or false. If there is a fire. Campus Security is called in and the fire is reported to the Amherst Fire Control Center, where the primary fire station is notified. The primary fire station for the Amherst Campus is Getzville with North Bailey as the first back-up station. Fire Chief Dan Miller has made several dry runs to the campus and says that they can “be on campus in two minutes.’’ However, once on campus it would take more time to reach the site of the fire, depending on where it is and traffic conditions. The real problem Miller also repeated the danger of pulling false alarms. He added that he would be “more than willing to go out to the campus and talk with the kids if it would do any good. It’s really important that we educate people regarding the dangers of false alarms/’he said. Miller added that he wants to run a full scale fire drill at the campus to see how quickly and smoothly his. company and the students can deal with an emergency. “We’re 100 percent prepared in the event of a fire there and we’ll give it everything we’ve got. One reason I want to run a full-scale drill is to show the kids that we’re ready,” he said. Meanwhile, the general consensus seems to be that dealing with false alarms and vandalism is the most immediate problem, not the actual amount of fire-prevention equipment available in the event of a real fire. Wednesday, 5 November 1975 . The Spectrum Page three . �Gl Bill Majority of classes House eliminates benefits of WSC to continue Executive Vice President Albert Somit has indicated that a majority of Women’s Studies College (WSC) courses will be retained next semester, because the College agreed to delete the word “unlawful” from the anti-discrimination clause in its charter. College courses which exclude men will not be processed by the Admissions and Records computer, however, rendering them unavailable next semester, Somit said. Abbey Tiger, a member of the WSC Publicity Committee said the College plans to hold a referendum in all WSC classes to determine whether or not men should be admitted to courses which are presently all-women only. An identical referendum held last year, affirmed the exclusion status of these courses. Out of a total enrollment of 500 in WSC courses, 350 women are registered in “Women In Contemporary Society,” the College’s introductory 213 course. This course, which WSC considers a vital part of its program, may no longer be offered as a result of the administration’s decision. Three other courses, “Women in Photography,” “Studio Art for Women,” and “Women’s Automotives” would also be adversely affected by the decision. Members of Women’s Studies College have scheduled a rally today from 12 noon-1 pan. in support of all-women classes and to deliver petitions signed by hundreds to students to President Robert Ketter. Last year, 4000 petition signatures were collected in a four-day drive. Many more signatures are expected this year because the petitions have already been circulating for approximately 30 days. Veterans currently in school and eligible for educational benefits will receive them for ten years after their release from active duty, said Patrick Kelly, Veterans Association President. The United States House of Representatives voted last week to eliminate GI Bill educational and vocational training benefits for all servicemen who enlist after December 31, 1975. According to Kelly, the only way this bill aids veterans is its extension of the available benefits for Graduate Studies to a period of 45 months of study. At this University, 11.5 percent of the total student population and 35 percent of the Millard Fillmore College population are veterans. In the future, many people like those receiving benefits here will not be able to seek further education, said Ed Serba, University of Buffalo Veteran Outreach Officer. Poorer He explained that many enlistees come from poorer socio-economic backgrounds. Educational benefits give these people a chance to escape the welfare unemployment cycle, he said. Serba said this is particularly true with Vietnam because this was essentially the first war you could “buy your way out of.” Many middle class people were able to obtain student deferments from Vietnam service while many poor could not. Kelly feels educational benefits are particularly important in the present time of recession when a growing number of veterans (in part accounting for the record number of veterans receiving benefits) are going back to school. Serba felt this is due to a growing need for veterans to adapt their skills to a changing job market. The GI Bill has undergone vast changes in the past. At its inception in the period after World War II, veterans were able to attend any institution of higher learning with the Veterans Administration (VA) paying the entire tuition plus $75 a month living allowance.' Presently, the benefits are in fixed payments based on a $270 monthly payment to a full-time student with no dependents. The student must pay his tuition and other expenses out of this allowance. ■■■■■■■■■■■■■FREE COFFEE bp DEMOCRATIC a & HATE CMVEUION I Candidate for President of the United States Saturday, Nov. 8th at 12 noon Haas Lounge Norton Admission FREE to all Coffee & Donuts will be served. - ’age four .

In order to maintain certification with the VA, a school must achieve a 50 percent employment —Chli rate for graduates.-This is aimed at proprietary schools, training institutes, which Kelly said treat the veteran students “like a piece of meat.” Serba feels that the most likely schools to be hurt by the compliance survey will be small public programs which have fewer financial and human resources. Serba said that according to available figures the United States Government has collected in taxes over ten times what it spends for educational and vocational benefits. This is because of an increased earning ability by better educated and trained veterans, Serba explained in citing a need for -Charles Greenberg continuing such programs.

November 1975 - TEA OR WHATEVER -■■■■■■■■■■I �Corporal punishment is still allowed in certain schools Editor’s note: The following article is reprinted from the November I, 1975 issue of The Nation. George Merlis Special to The Spectrum The hickory stick, long the feared symbol of American classroom discipline, is gone. So is the birch rod. Today’s schoolteachers have other methods of maintaining order and enforcing diligence: electric cattle prods, copper-edged rulers, heavy leather belts and most commonly wooden paddles. Corporal punishment, outlawed in the military, no longer officially sanctioned in prisons, thrives in America’s classrooms. Many educators take to heart the injunction of the Proverbs; “He that spareth his rod hateth his son, but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.” They cast themselves as the chastising father and and their pupils as the miscreant sons daughters. A junior high school teacher in Independence, Mo., substituted a rowboat oar for a rod. A South Carolina teacher used a cattle prod. Teachers in Port Huron, Mich., are proscribed from striking their students with anything more punishing than an open hand, but in another Michigan district, newly hired teachers are handed a wooden paddle when they sign their employment contracts. In West Virginia, students in shop class make the paddles which will be used on them in other classes. And in Dallas, Texas, the school district keeps meticulous records on corporal punishment, records they are not loath to reveal to any inquirer. According to Nolan school Dallas assistant Estes, a 10,225 were there superintendent, instances of corporal punishment in the city’s classrooms in the 1973-74 school year. (The 1974-75 statistics had not been compiled in mid-September.) “That’s not 10,000 students paddled,” Estes explained; “some of them were repeaters.” Indeed, probably many were repeaters, for a 1972 study of corporal punishment conducted by the National Education “Physical Association concluded, way to an ineffective is punishment maintain order; it usually has to be repeated over and over.” The 10,000-plus swattings recorded by - - — —Hear 0 Israel— For gems from the JEWISH BIBLE Phone 875-4265 PAPERBACK Dallas in 1973-74 were a drastic decrease from the 26,000-plus pupil beatings of the 1972-73 school year. The decline occurred because the school system began enforcing its rule that teachers need prior, written parental consent before paddling a student. Student administrators, on the other hand, are still authorized to strike students without parental consent. Today, a Dallas teacher who feels a beating is called for must bring the student before a board that includes a school nurse and a school psychologist. And the board, after hearing all sides, decides whether to seek parental consent. Or, the teacher may refer the case to the principal who can, in Estes’s phrase, “handle it in their [sic] own way.” Estes adds; “The students must be given the opportunity to state their side. The administrator must advise students of their rights. It’s just like an arrest.” If it is easy for some school student to equate administrators crimes no with crimes misbehavior longer subject to corporal penalties in the criminal justice system what about those who suffer spankings and paddlings for deficiencies in their school work? Certainly no one could confuse honest mistakes or with misdemeanors, much even laziness Yet in school districts with felonies. less across the country teachers spank, paddle and manhandle students for spelling errors, arithmetic mistakes and sloppy homework, as well as for unruly behavior. Thirteen states explicitly permit the corporal punishment of students. Three Jersey, Maryland, New states Massachusetts ban it. Most states have no laws on the subject, so the children can be whacked about unless a local district New York, forbids it. Some major cities Philadelphia, Chicago have done so. In September, California passed a law requiring written parental consent. The law’s sponsor. Assemblywoman Leona Egeland, said, “I have never seen a good teacher who has to stoop to corporal punishment to modify behavior." Yet. it wasn’t banned, merely restricted. In Oregon, a bastion of progressive legislation, an attempt last year to ban corporal punishment in the schools was narrowly defeated in the state legislature after intensive, last-minute lobbying by pro-paddling teachers who feared they would be unable to control their classes without the threat of physical force. — - - — - - — - Too often, that threat must be exercised. Ric MacDowell, a teacher who had used paddles on his students although he does not approve of the practice, put it this way; “If it’s legal, and if the students are used to corporal punishment, then that is what they respect. You can ask the class to be quiet, but they know you’re not really serious until you get out the paddle and paddle somebody.” But Larry Wilkerson, a West Virginia school superintendent, thinks county corporal punishment can help to stimulate the mind. What the student might think about, some feel, is vengeance. Bob Myers, a probation and parole officer in Missouri, wrote, “The seeds of corporal punishment can only produce an ugly harvest of violence.” Not only can paddling make a student resentful, Myers feels it can also teach him that physical force is an acceptable way to solve problems. Until this week the Supreme Court declined to rule on corporal punishment in skirting schools, the the broad constitutional issues (cruel and unusual punishment, denial of due process, invasion of privacy, etc.). But on October 20 the Court let stand a lower court ruling affirming the right of a North Carolina teacher to paddle a student for which now has misbehaving. That ruling said of Court assent the force a Supreme a student must be warned before being spanked and that only a “reasonable” level of corporal punishment was permissible. The Court did not define “reasonable.” The lower court affirmed the right of a teacher to spank even against the wishes of — — a parent. The Court’s decision, foes of corporal punishment feel, will make it harder to get anti-paddling legislation passed elsewhere. Presumably the Supreme Court agrees with educators who hold with Menander, “The man who has never been flogged has never been taught.” The fact that those words were written more than 300 years before the birth of Christ doesn’t seem to render them obsolete to pro-paddling educators. One school official said he knew paddling worked because some of his victims “have in later years thanked me for straightening them out.” and they But paddling’s opponents include the NEA, ACLU and the American believe the Psychological Association most friendly, helpful and educational thing that can be done about scholastic corporal punishment is to make it ancient — — history.

Page fi’ �Editorial Betrayal Vice President for Finance and Management Ed Doty has firmly rejected the compromise by the Student Association to save the Record Coop on this campus. SA, in its attempts to deal with Doty on his terms, offered to work with the School of Management in handling the bookkeeping operations of the Coop, thus creating an academically justifiable enterprise. Doty said no, that the Record Coop was just too big. SA then suggested reducing the inventory of the Coop to make it smaller. Again, Doty refused to budge. His message: the Coop will close on Friday. Doty's adamant refusal to consider any reason- able alternatives confirms facts about our administration that should outrage every student on this campus. Stated simply, Doty has betrayed us. He has shown exactly where his loyalties lie by acceding to pressure from one Carl Cavage, owner of a competing record store across the street who no doubt has a couple of friends in high political places. Through his use of administrative fiat, Doty has accepted Cavage's legally unsubstantiated complaint, rather than force Cavage to pursue it in the courts. In effect, the burden of proof was shifted to the Coop (and students). Doty, who has let the Coop exist for over four years, says it was "marginally legal" then but it is illegal now. Vet legality is not even the real issue here. When President Robert Ketter authorized the establishment of the Coop in September 1971, not only did he justify its existence within Board of Trustees guidelines, but nowhere did he even mention that the operation could be illegal. In fact, the purpose of the letter he wrote to SA on September 13, 1971, was to state his reasons for its legality: "Since the proposed co-op is not a private enterprise, since it would operate in space generally and already assigned to student activities, since the proceeds would benefit the Student Association, and since I assume the end result could be deemed cultural, I approve the request with the following conditions . . ." Doty has claimed that those conditions may not have been met, partly due to his and the Coop's negligence. But he himself admits that is not the issue. As far as legality goes, the Coop today still fits into Ketter’s original logic. And yet Doty still care; if doesn't SA can "make it legal," Doty still businessmen." The same article reports that in a says it’s too big. We believe that the size of the Coop is neither a sound legal argument nor justifiable grounds to shut it down. The fact remains that it is a letter to the Chancellor of the State University, "20 department heads, deans and program chairmen non-profit operation run by students and for students. It'is clear that Doty has no intentions of listening to reason. Rather, his motives are selfserving and he is manipulating laws to serve this end. He is more interested in avoiding potential headaches for the administration than taking a>stand against Cavage and possibly falling from grace in the eyes of ability' and did not have 'the trust or confidence of a large portion of this university' and was 'clearly not worthy of the presidency." Seven days later, a Times editorial on Sunday, June 28, 1970, stated that "Violent student forays and revolutionary rhetoric have made it increasingly difficult for liberal forces the business community. Doty thinks he did his homework well, he thinks the "dope" he has on the Record Coop will bear him out. But where are his facts on Cavages? Cavage, the man who probably controls more of the record market in Buffalo than any other person, claims the Coop is a "ruinous competition." If Doty insists on resorting to the most drastic recourse possible, closing the Coop, he has a fundamental obligation to students to make Cavage show "just cause" for a complaint, to prove that his business is suffering. We want figures, not threats. Furthermore, Cavage's complaint is obviously an attempt to eliminate his immediate competition. By doing away with a non profit enterprise that Doty says is illegal, he just could be sanctioning a potential record monopoly in Buffalo and a violation of state anti trust laws. If anything, the .University probably has just as much of a legal case against Cavage as he has against the University. It should be noted that at one time, Cavages was the only record shop in the University area. Back in 1971, when the Record Runner and the Record Coop first opened, the monopolistic atmosphere of record sales was finally injected with a degree of free competition. Cavage himself said in the Monday, November 8, 1971 issue of The Spectrum, "The main thing is to be of service to more people, to be able to get more people by changing the price so there are more transactions." His philosophy has now changed thanks to men like Doty. Why should he lower prices or expand his inventory to attract student customers when he has the backing of the University administration in eliminating his most threatening competition? This administration's alliance with area businessmen has a good deal of historical significance. The New York Times reported on Sunday, July 21, 1970 that Robert Ketter was nominated for the presidency of this University by "the Buffalo University Council, primarily a group of Western New York asserted that Dr. Ketter lacked 'senior administrative oppose and contain the counter-pressures of enraged communities, alumni and legislatures." The Times cited the State University of New York at Buffalo as a prime example, calling "disastrous. . the temptation on the part of despairing trustees to seek out 'law and order' candidates to fill university presidencies." The Ketter administration grew out of exactly that type of logic. In 1970, Ketter and his crew of Vice Presidents ascended to power, not by virtue of their administrative expertise or educational vision, but for the sole purpose of mollifying certain elements of the Buffalo community. Five years later, campus cosmetics and development of the Amherst campus, giving private businesses the right to a virtually captive consumer market, is still their number one concern. to These days, it takes pretty dramatic actions for students to raise an outcry about any issue on campus. As the response to Doty's decision to close the Record Coop indicates, students, will not allow the administration to walk right over them in the arms of one angry businessman. By bowing down to Cavage's complaint, Doty is setting an extremely dangerous precedent for the future of other student services on this campus. Many students today own more records than they do books. Records have become one of the most important cultural mediums of this generation and cultural activities certainly fall within the SUNV guidelines. The administration isn't the only party in this controversy that has local citizens on its side. Many community members have expressed strong support for the Record Coop, including several of the local radio and television stations. Although the men in our administration would have us believe otherwise, we do have ways of fighting back. On November 7, the Record Coop will be forced or not it will reopen its doors to shut down. Whether rests in our hands Rally for Women's Studies Women's Studies College (WSC) needs the help the entire University community in upholding its of defense of all-women's classes to the administration.

Cavage. In August 1975 came the abrupt and distasteful end to that career. Having served them with my standard two-week notice of departure, I found myself out of a job at the end of the same workday. Naturally I have a gripe against the man and his two corporations. By two, I’m speaking of Cavages Inc. and its corporate Siamese twin, Buffalo Enterprises Inc. which in turn runs the warehouse (a tax break?). 1 could say that while I worked there, all of his employees were happy, that they were paid time and a half for overtime, that he never sent people to investigate the Co-op incognito, and that no one was told to hush up a raise they might have received. But then, I could be branded a liar, which I am not. All of these things did occur, and more. Unfortunately I don’t have full knowledge of other covert activities which 1 did catch a glimpse of. In all fairness to former fellow employees, I made some friends for life. I don’t regret that part of my experience. In summation, ask yourself this — how much food does the Co-op take off Carl’s table, and why is he referred to as “King” Cavage? Thank you, A Kirsch P.S. The busiest.

The basic problem was that The Spectrum article reported figures as annual losses, when in actuality, the figures were totals of books stolen or lost over the years. Our annual losses in unit libraries are difficult to pinpoint. Most libraries cannot afford the time or staff to perform such regular inventories. However, in the unit libraries of this campus which have been able to take inventories in the past few years, there seems an average of about 5 percent of used A modest proposal The resourceful administrator with faced fiscal emergencies can always manage to snatch defeat out the jaws of when creative economies. For example, we have already made mention of the victory by instituting and University phone the Academic Handbook. With the public interest in mind, we would like to suggest eight more ways to decrease the budget at this University. 1. The cut-back in department directory phone service and the exclusion of students in the Campus Phone Directory was a small step in the right direction. The time has come to eliminate all campus phone service and replace it with a Drum and Smoke Signal Communication Corps. We have all been used to the beat of the tom-tom in and around Norton. Now let’s put it to'good use! 2. Eliminate bureaucrats who have long ceased to administer, and now spend all their time eating Unto the budget by earning exorbitant salaries. The solution, have them eat each other. The right to commit Cannibalism is protected in a little known clause in Title IX of the Civil Rights states which Amendment “Cannibalisiti between consenting adults shall not be prevented on the basis of sex, race or religion.” 3. Institute paid tours to the top of the re-built Lockwood steps, the new “in place to be.” The view will take your breath away! 4. Utilize the experimental dogs over in Farber Hall more efficiently between the months of November and March. This can be accomplished by establishing Dog Sled Runs to Amherst and Ridge Lea for one-fifth the cost of the present bus service. 5. Expand “Credit University,’’ that Free lucrative educational innovation that now offers courses in such germane areas as “Hockey Injuries” by including workshops in Dealing. The Rathskellar is our choice for the collection missing, which leads us to the conclusion that about 5 percent of the materials that we purchase each year are lost. This is a far cry from the reported statement that we lose 5 percent of the total collection each year. As an example of the effectiveness of the electronic detection systems installed in several existing libraries here (and to be installed in all the Amherst library facilities), an inventory of the Health Sciences Library last year showed their losses to be less than three-tenths of one percent with the electronic system, as opposed to the general 5 percent average for the general system. -John Vasi Assistant to the Director of Libraries Prostitution and Drug classroom space. 6. Some departments have “blue giving out eliminated books” for examinations. In conjunction with this wise money saving measure, we call for the institution of oral examinations to natural precious save our resources (paper and ink) while increasing teaching productivity. Imagine how much more we could get out of our professors, if they had to give oral tests to lecture classes of 150 students. 7. Better utilization of our Heating Plant. Since the heat is turned on in the beginning of September and turned off in May, no matter what the temperature outside, we suggest that Food Service warm its food on the radiators and use the carols at Lockwood for Steam Tables when temperatures are 68 degrees or above outside. 8. Scale down labor costs in the libraries by eliminating that antiquated system of checking out books. UGL had the right idea this summer when it stopped checking books and packages at the door to see if anyone was stealing because as one library administrator put it, “the cost of employing someone to check people at the door was more and expensive than replacing a stolen book.” recataloging Following this brilliant logic, we might also eliminate Campus Security since they never recover property stolen enough compensate for their salaries. Editor’s Note: wholeheartedly proposals. The Spectrum these supports Look at the facts hah!) Til the l:\lllnl The Justin Hofmann's “facts” are not very true. To say that Spectrum. Od 31 the Arabs living in Israel have the same rights as any other citizens is very wrong and reflects nothing but the degree of information our Rabbi has. The Israeli policy towards the Palestinians has always been a series of continuous terror and oppression. This includes both the Palestinians who jjfit living inside occupied Palestine and those who were forced to leave in 1 948. I am sure that Rabbi Hofmann knows (he told me he was there) that the Balilee and the Triangle simply and the Negev have a military governor because of the high Arab population in those areas who still rules according to a system put by the British Mandate in 1945. Those laws, under which the majority of Arabs live, effects every moment of a person’s life. Under those laws a person can be detained (315 detention orders issued in 1957), denied his possessions and his property can be destroyed just if the military suspects that he has done something wrong. Up to 1963 there could be no appeal to a decision of the military governor. After 1963 Arabs were given the right to appeal to the Supreme Court who made it a general rule not to oppose the first decision. Moreover up to 1962 no Arab in the villages of Triangle could leave his home between 6 p m. & 5 a.m. which sure enough was not the case in Tel Aviv for example. (Equal rights Rabbi - - - — To count a few from so many, the public services in the Arab villages compared to those in any other Jewish settlement are very poor. Health economic service, educational, and political standards in the Arab populated areas are in no way comparable to those in the other areas. They pay equal taxes receiving the least services other than the services done to them by the Israeli army like in Kfarkasem - 1956 for example. As far as the Israeli policy towards the Palestinians outside Israel, we have the daily attacks on the refugee camps in Lebanon, where thousands of children have been killed, as a best illustration. Still our Rabbi may argue that Zionism is not a form of racism. You can call it whatever you want, remembering the results this movement brought to the world in general and the Palestinians in particular. Also it would be to our Rabbi’s advantage Judging whether Zionism is racism or not to remember those words said by Moshe Dayan to the students of the Techion in Haifa on March 19, 1969: “There is not a single Jewish settlement in this country that has not been built on the site of an Arab village.” Want more? Listen to Abraham Anzlag in Ma’ariv of March 26, 1971: “Here they eliminate a complete culture. They uproot a rich and - deep-rooted culture.” Is it racism? Call it whatever you want as long as you remember its results. John Elias Act now to save the Coop To Cavages’ ads are heard on the radio, on any day!) Are we really threatening this man?

The amount of estrogen in the average Pill has been cut in half since 1960,but the risk of clots remains the same.” by Jenny Cheng Contributing Editor Many women today look to the Birth Control Pill as the surest means Of contraceptive protection. But doctors are not quite sure just how the Pill affects the body and people are becoming increasingly suspicious of its potential hazards. Advocates of the Pill content that its side effects have been grossly exaggerated and taken out of context. But skeptics continually cite frightening statistics of susceptibility among Pill-users to blood clotting, cancer and vascular disorders. Both sides have presented arguments worthy of consideration. But after reviewing all the facts about the Pill, many conclude that it is a “grand, and unprecedented biological experiment,” as Barbara Seaman puts it. Seaman, a Medical Writing Fellow at Columbia University, sees the Pill as a dangerous drug. “The outcome of this experimental drug does not directly affect the grown men who developed and prescribe ft, but it does affect many millions of women and their unborn babies,” she said. Seaman believes any woman who takes the Pill has the right, and perhaps the obligation to understand just how experimental the Pill is. Cancer factor? concerning the Cancer has been another subject of dispute the Pill. “safeness” of Advocates of the Pill claim that several hundred women who participated in trials of the Pill beginning in 1956 and are still being checked regularly, have not developed any Pill-associated cancer. However, these same advocates admit that doctors cannot positively 10 or state that the Pill does not cause cancer, because cancer takes more years to develop, and widespread use of the Pill dates only from 1965. Pill advocates go as far as to say they feel the Pill may “protect” women from some forms of cancer. “Recent research shows women often as using (he Pill develop benign breast tumors less than half as Alice Lake. women choosing other contraceptives,” contends journalist curable when spotted “In fact, in cases of cancer of the cervix, it is early, and women on the Pill who receive an annual examination with a gynecologist, probably have the best protection against cancer, she said. However, according to a journal published by the American Cancer Society, “For.many years the profound effects of hormones on cancer In of the breasts and female genital tract have been known doses over a when given in large addition, we know that estrogens, will control pills), as the case of birth in prolonged period of time (such induce tumors of the breast, cervix, pituitary, testicles, kidney and bone marrow in rodents and dogs.” Artificial hormones Gynecologist Harold Speert points out, “One of the problems with the Pill is that people don’t realize that the artificial homrones we’re dealing with in the Pill, are not ‘physiologic’, and therefore, not necessarily safe. They are not the same hormones produced by the body, not by a long shot.” “It was not the honest thing to do to call these hormones Cervical damages “There is reason to believe these studies are applicable to man,” estrogens and progestins,” Speert contend*. “They should be given of which petroleum names like those use the asserts in they industry Roy Hertz, a medical researcher. “There is definitely some risk a chemical arc more deserving.” woman runs of eventually developing cancer from the dangerous levels they wouldn’t to be taking some_ lot of women who want of hormones in birth control pills, although the extent of the risk is “A to into bodies are take every day, willing chemical their undetermined.” petroleum-type Hertz believes that much more research is required, and that something that sounds as though their bodies are producing it anyway. several carefully designed studies should be carried out to resolve this Doctors arc also misled by this kind of labelling,” Speert says. Both advocates and critics seem to agree that the 16 year old Pill is problem as quickly as possible. But until then, Hertz warns, “A woman indeed in a stage of experiment. Dr. Stanford Wessler, Assistant who chooses to take the Pill is running a risk.” Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, said, “None of the Most specialists also agree that a woman who has a strong family history of breast or uterine cancer should not go on the Pill because her ' statistics gathered concerning the Pill are ‘pertinent’.” Wessler argues that the studies of the early 60’s, which approve the hormone drugs are chances of eventually developing the disease are even greater. at Furthermore, Dr. Muron Melamed, a Pathologist clinical studies based on a very small number (100-200) of persons who Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, who bagan a study of cervical cancer in had been taking the Pill for a year or more. In 1962, at a Federal Drug Administration (FDA) conference, Pill-users in 1965,states, “It is quite devious that something is going on Wessler was one of the few doctors who felt the FDA should not in the cervix (of Pill-users), but what it is we don’t know.” After three years, he found that the earliest developing cancers are condone the use of an entirely experimental drug, “while there is evidence of its contribution to deaths from blood clotting disorders.” more prevalent in Pill-users, but was unwilling to conclude that there is any cause and effect relationship, since there are so many other factors involved. Blood dot dangers Blood clotting has probably caused the biggest scare arid posed the greatest threat to Pill-users. The three dangers involved are Vascular disorders Thrombophlebitis (inflamation of a vein, usually in the leg); Pulmonary “Relatively few women are fully acquainted with the metabolic Embolism (migration of a clot to the lungs); and stroke (resulting from and vascular effects of the Pill,” Seaman addes. However, Pill advocates a clot in a blood vessel of the brain)-.

The British Journal of Psychiatry notes that one in three Pill-users develop depressive personality changes. Of 50 who were studied specifically, three became suicidal. , Masters and Johnson have also stated that some women react psychologically to the Pill by losing their interest in sex altogether. Seaman says many women who have stopped taking the Pill reveal that they have felt as if a “great weight had been lifted from them.” Birth defects Finally, women are concerned whether the Pill will affect unborn children. Last May, the British Royal College of General Practitioners found that children of former Pill users had no more abnormalities than the infants of women who had never used the Pill. However, a report from the New York State Health Department maintained that five of 1000 births of infants who were exposed to sex hormones in the early stages of pregnancy showed deformed or missing limbs. Doctors conclude that these infants were bom to mothers who ... , Page eight . The Spectrum . Wednesday, 5 November 1975 —Forrest became pregnant while on the Pill, and who were not aware of their pregnancy until it was too late. Doctors thus advise women who want to become pregnant to avoid any abrupt dbift from the Pill to no contraceptive and suggest an interim method of contraception be Used for a period of three months. Defenders of the Pill insist the disadvantages associated with it are overemphasized. In 1962, a San Antonio doctor set out to prove this. Seventy-six women came to a San Antonio clinic seeking oral contraceptives. They were not, told they were given “dummy” pills, but were only advised to use vaginal cream as added protection. The doctor, Joseph Qoldzieher, reported months later that almost all the women who had been taking the placebo pills complained, of “side effects.” Goldzieher concluded that some reported Pill side effects are largely “psychogenic.” Perhaps women have been taught to be afraid of the Pill, but its critics doubt that cases of severe blood clotting, cervial cancer, and birth defects are merely psychogenic responses to a “safe” drug. �Sperm spear In search of a male contraceptive pill Extensive research has been conducted this year in search of a male conventional surgical reversal techniques were only about 30 percent. contraceptive pill and other alternatives to the widely-used Birth Control Pill. Two Australian biochemists, Michael and Maxine Briggs of Alfred Hospital last year reported the successful control of sperm production with a combination of synthetic hormones used to treat porous bone disease. The doctors, studying two men being treated for Osteoporis with synthetic hormones, found them to be temporarily unfertile. After testing these same hormones as a means of birth control on healthy adult males, the Briggs discovered that they could work without significant side effects. They also administered a synthetic androgen called methyltestosterone and a synthetic estrogen called ethynlestradiol twice daily to five married men. After 18 weeks, all five men had stopped producing sperm, although sexual potency remained the same. The men reported minimal side effects. Three of the five complained of nausea in the first two weeks, but the Briggs state that the nausea might be attributed to psychological causes. Makes sense The team reported no changes in skin, hair, breasts or urination. The contraceptive effects lasted 15 weeks after the men stopped taking the hormones, and normal sperm production was found after 3540 weeks without treatment. The Briggs team suggested that these drugs should be studied further. If such hormones work successfully, as they claim, doses and administration must be worked out. Gabriel Baily, acting chief of the contraceptive development branch within the National Institutes of Health (NIH) says the idea is “perfectly all right and makes scientific sense” but is not sure that it is very practical. Another doctor in Seattle has been conducting similar tests. Alvin Paulsen found that the most effective form of combining male and female hormones for temporary male infertily is to inject a specified amount of testosterone once a month in conjunction with a daily danazol tablet, which is similar to female progesterone. Majority favors pill Side effects are again reported to be minimal. Over ISO men answered advertisements to test the new contraceptive, although only 100 men were called for. “I volunteered because it’s time the male did something about contraception,” explained one of the men. “Contraception is as much my responsibility as a woman’s.” Apparently, he is not alone. In a recent survey, The Spectrum randomly questioned 125 students of this University. Almost 60 percent of the men interviewed claimed that if a male contraceptive pill existed they would take it. Twenty-four percent were against it, and 15 percent were unsure. The same students that would take the male pill stated that currently, they would want their girlfriends or wives to go on the Pill. Over 7& percent of the women said that they would be in favor of their boyfriends or husbands taking a male pill, and an equal amount of women claimed they would go on the Pill themselves. The overwhelming majority of the students felt that the Pill was the most effective means of contraception (besides abstention). Those who would not take the Pill named the side effects as the chief reason. " Reversible vasectomies Currently, NIH is conducting research on both physical approaches to male contraception (such as sperm duct valves) and chemical approaches (such as the Briggs’ and Paulsen’s utilization of chemical hormones). Research on sperm duct valves has turned out to be more complicated than expected and Bialy personally feels that “some type of drug approach” would be more readily available in the near future. However, some doctors are now claiming to perform vasectomies with high percentages of reversibility, reducing one of the complications of the operation. In the past, the average success rate for Dr. Sherman Silber has initiated a new surgical technique of reversal and claims that the first 24 patients who underwent the operation now register a normal sperm count, and 16 of their wives have become pregnant. Another doctor in California claimed a 63 percent rate of reversal in the vasectomies he performed. Sterilizations double “As it becomes known that this can be regularly achieved, we can expect to see even more otherwise reluctant husbands ask earlier for the safest of all birth control methods, vasectomies,” said Silber. “This does not mean that we would routinely recommend vasectomies to men who feel that they might wish to have children, but it will certainly help to make vasectomy even more acceptable than it is now.” In fact, although the number of couples who chose sterilization as a means of birth control at least doubled in the past decade, only 30 percent of the surgeries were performed on men, accoTding to the National Survey of Family Growth. During the last four years, 3.8 million sterilization operations were performed on men and women. Sixteen percent of currently married couples were protected from further child bearing, an increase from 8 percent in 1965. William F. Pratt of the National Center for Health Statistics concluded that the survey indicates there will be another doubling in the proportion of married couples who choose sterilization as a means of birth control. Contraceptive injections Pratt stated that 36 percent of the currently married women in the survey “opt for contraceptive sterilization, their own of their husbands, before the age of 45. Of women under the age of 35, 47 percent eventually expect to seek sterilization. The National Opinion Research Center, which surveyed 9800 women under 45 years old, estimated that by the time of the survey, over 6.6 million surgical sterlizations had already been performed. A new contraceptive drug is currently being administered to women who want to avoid Pill counting. The drug, Depo-Provera (DMPA) is injected into the woman once every three months, eliminating the need for daily attention. DMPA is not being widely used in this country. A spokesperson from the Birth Control Clinic claims that women who want children in the future should not be administered the injection since some women experience a long delay in their return to fertility after they stop taking it. The average delay runs eight months (compared to three to six months for Pill users). A real concern now is that DMPA might cause permanent sterility in some cases. Minimal side effects DMPA also eliminates the monthly menstrual period. Although this would seem unnatural to most people, some doctors view that continual menstruation might even be harmful to the woman. The reliability rate of DMPA is the same as the Pill. The drug is actually a synthetic progestin that acts by blocking the pituitary hormones that stimulate ovulation every month and trigger the elevation of the body’s estrogen level. It has already been approved for contraceptive use in 70 countries. The largest group of users that has been studied is 25,000 women in Thailand who, between 1965 and 1973, received injections of the drug at family planning clinics. By the end of the study, no serious side effects had been reported, and 73 percent of all the patients who came to the clinics each month were choosing DMPA over the other birth-control methods. Dr. Louise Tyrer of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology privately approves of DMPA as an alternative to sterilization for women who want no more children as long as they are examined prior to each injection. ‘The published reports on DMPA suggest that it is a safe and effective method of contraception,” stated Dr. Allen Rosenfield of the Population Council.

Simon and Schuster expects to sell a million copies of this paperback edition of More Joy of Sex to people who were too smart to pay $12.95 for the hardcover edition. If you were one of those people, keep up the good work and save your $5.95 too. Alex Comfort, the “Editor” of More Joy (which certainly reads as though it had been written by a committee) claims in his Preface: “The Joy of Sex, the predecessor of this book, has in one year altered the face of sex education... It was the first explicitly sexual bdok for the coffee table.” More Joy is the second book so intended, with all that that implies. Both books are bestsellers. I can’t imagine why; neither is explicit enough to be titillating, or thorough enough to be truly educational. It’s coffee table sex, all right; but what harmless; they’re serving is Sanka with saccharine but hardly enough to satisfy us caffeine freaks. Any coffee table book has to have lots of pictures. More Joy’s many black-and-white drawings of Beautiful People Making Love are pleasant enough, although only two or three of them show actual penetration, and most of the rest are gratuitous, making only a token effort at illustrating the text. A 30-page color sequence (by another artist) is another matter: I’m afraid this entire section, the Tenderness and entitled ‘‘Body Language Passion of the Act of Love,” gave me the giggles. These drawings, in sickly pastel shades and the kind of bland, greeting-card style found in some children’s books, treat us to garter belts, cunnilingus, tongue-kissing, anal fingering, and general orgasmic ecstasy. It is all in atrocious taste, and about as erotic as last week’s Peanuts strip. You’ll never convince me there’s a recession so long as suckers are willing to pay for this kind of trash. Well, but what about the text? The prose is certainly slick, and has about it an incessant coziness of tone. Comfort (or whoever) did the actual writing) betrays a rather pathetic determination to sound “with-it”: the text is littered with supposedly hip expressions. Group sex can be “mindblowing” and “a religious experience,” or it can be “a bad trip”; oral sex too can be “a heavy trip”; and so on with a grim insistence on the fatiguing coolness of it all. There are cute double entendres, mostly based on the verb to come-, and cunning references to Othello, Blake, Beethoven, Roberta Flack, and even Ariadneauf Naxos: eclectic indeed! Buried beneath this style is plenty of sensible information and argumentation, combined with some nonsense. As a pornographer, I necessarily deal in fantasies, not in reality; and one of the good things about More Joy is the way it explodes many of these sexual myths some long-cherished, others of quite recent origin. To give only one example, the book points out what anybody who’s worked on the set of a blue movie knows: that fellatio alone is not enough to bring many men to orgasm. (So much for all those “throat-flooding geysers of spermatic syrup” 1 dribbled all over the pages of my first book physician, heal thyself! Solution; masturbate the base of his penis while you concentrate your oral efforts on his fenulum; and no, you don’t have to be being “Deep-throated” is more a Linda Lovelace than a physical thrill.) More Joy psychological contains equally valuable material on female orgasm, on overcoming various psychological hang-ups, and — ... — - - on sex for the elderly and the handicapped (a seriously neglected area); but the limitations of space and style keep the discussion on a superficial level. There are too many easy answers to complicated problems. Some of the suggestions are ridiculous: use your slide projector to cast colors and patterns on your bodies as you cavort in the nude. It’s less messy than body painting. Make your own blue movies (who do you get to wield the camera?). Hit each other with foam-rubber bats; bite each other; shove a vibrator up your ass, guys, to find out what being penetrated feels like but don’t forget the sadomasochism is sick! (The book is filled with this sort of implicit self-contradiction; if you use foam rubber, it’s “healthy aggression”; switch to a leather strap, and you’re a pervert. As for that vibrator trick: if you try it, men, use lots of lubricant and insert it gently with the power turned off until it’s in. And be warned that you’ll probably have the most intense orgasm of which could be psychologically your life devastating, if you’re at all insecure about your masculinity. Comfort, of course, doesn’t mention that possibility.) More Joy is ultimately just another sexist book. It pays lip service to women’s lib, but includes this startling bit of advice to teenaged girls who date: “Quite a few cockteasers don’t intend to be so, they just don’t know enough boy physiology: the sight of nice breasts and a few kisses will produce an erection. If this happens and she doesn’t want intercourse, she should tell him she has her period and offer an alternative’’; i.e., masturbation. 1 find this fascinating. The girl is supposed to accept her role as sexual servant of the male, and she is told to tell a flat lie to her boyfriend. (What excuse does she use during the rest of the month?) So much for “honesty in relationships’’ (p. I 10), let alone “the right to say no” (p. 132). The treatment of homosexuality is just as hypocritical. Comfort forces himself to say it’s all right, but clearly doesn’t want to discuss it. In the which is of a surpassing section on group sex silliness anyway lesbian activity is depicted and described (as a turn-on for the men, just as in classic pornography); but men are told they must be content with something ghastly called “a David and Jonathan relationship,” in which they express their affection for each other by “sharing” a woman. How selfishly exploitative can you get? The sexist message is clear: sucking cock and getting fucked up the ass “can be a supreme love-gift to a partner” but only if you’re a woman. The truth, of course, as we’ve known all along, is that this book is just another rip-off designed to exploit inhibited people’s insatiable curiosity about sex. As even the compilers of More Joy admit, true sexual freedom cannot be learned from a book.

People were already dancing to the songs on the PA system while the Outlaws (the first warm-up group) were setting up. One knew that there was first rate taste among the groups when they tuned up during an Elton John song (making it inaudible, which was fine as far as this reporter was concerned) but left the Stones’ “Gimme Shelter” in tact. The Outlaws were simply was The band incredible. tight and there was unbelievably between while songs no waiting people were tuning up. “Song in the Breeze” began as a slow, easy turned into a melody and rembunctious rocker. ‘There Goes Another Love Song” (their commercial hit) and “Knoxville” (which was dedicated to Charlie Daniels backstage) were highlights of the set due to some of the finest country guitar picking I’ve ever heard. The finale was, however, their most amazing song about 20 minutes of “Green Fields and High Tides,” with guitar solos left and right. Besides a standing ovation and the traditional clapping and cheering for five minutes afterwards, the Outlaws didn’t come back for an encore. In a way it was better, for they couldn’t have played any song with more exuberance. — Poco and TKO’s story Poco was another altogether.

The Spectrum . page 14— Page eleven �Bills won’t non-chalant their way into the playoff simply not good enough to deserve a playoff berth by Ira Brush man Editor’s note: As the NFL season begins its second half, the Buffalo Bills find themselves struggling to maintain any hopes for a playoff berth, the first step to the Super Bowl. The following two stories explore the pros and cons of the Bills’ team as they begin their final march toward an AFC championship. by David J. Rubin Despite the somewhat surprising successes of the Houston Oilers and the Miami Dolphins, there is no reason why the Buffalo Bills cannot reach the NFL playoffs in 1975. A strong front four and an injury riddled yet tolerable secondary give the Bills a reasonable defense to compliment their explosive offense featuring Joe Ferguson and everybody’s favorite rent-a-car salesman, O.J. Simpson. After a surprising start which included stunning victories over the highly touted Jets and defending world champion Steelcrs, the Bills have steadily lost their competitive edge. They should not have lost to either the Giants or the Dolphins, and should have mauled the Jets again in New York this past Sunday. Serious contenders Despite the subpar games of late, nobody will dispute the ability of the Bills to beat anybody on a given day, and since they trail Miami by just one game, they certainly are still serious contenders for a playoff berth The Bills’ poor performances in recent weeks are explainable. They undoubtedly underestimated the Giants, and they still could have won if John Leypoldt had not blown an easy field goal. Against Miami, Buffalo led for such a large part of the game, that a victory in the Orange Bowl cannot be considered unreasonable. The Jets were also underestimated by the Bills who maybe were looking ahead to this week’s matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals. To make the playoffs as AFC East Champion, the Bills would merely have to beat Miami by at least a touchdown, and then match the Dolphins game for game for the remainder of the year. As for a possible wild card berth, the Bills would have to hope that Houston loses at least twice and Pittsburgh once. Both of these possibilities are All Buffalo Bills fanatics had better sit down before reading this article. The Bills won’t make the playoffs this year. The Bills have lost two out of their last three games and would have lost all three if Jet Coach Charlie Winner had been anything more than the worst coach in football. They now have a 5-2 record and trail the rocketing Miami Dolphins who have* won five games in a row, by one game. The Bills have a tough schedule remaining as they must face the Dolphins, the Bengals, the Vikings and the Cardinals, playing only one of those games before their own fans. The combined records of the teams they will face in the second half of the season is an impressive 31-18. Easygoing In contrast, the Dolphins have a relatively easy schedule remaining, as the only teams with winning records they’ve yet to'face are the Oilers and Bills. The combined records of their future opponents is a mediocre 24-25. It is conceivable that the Dolphins won’t lose another game, making it possible for them to close the season at 12-2. The Bills could come in second and still reach the playoffs via the wild card. Admittedly, the Bills O.J. Simpson are in the thick of this race, but the odds are again stacked against them, as it appears they will have to best. However, defense wins games and the Bills are beat out two teams from the AFC Central Division seriously lacking in that department. Their where the Steelers, Bengals and Oilers each have 6-1 secondary has been severely weakened by injuries, records. The schedule-maker has been slightly kinder and their defensive line is nothing to rave about. They rank a dismal 18th in points allowed so far this to the Bills with respect to the wild card as both the season. Steelers and Oilers have tough games ahead. It will be a cold winter for Bills’ fans this year. If it’s playoff action you want, stay warm watching Defense gap So much for cold calculations. The Bills are the Sabres and the Braves. not unrealistic. Tough schedule The Bills schedule is not the easiest, however. They face three of last year’s playoff teams plus Cincinnati. But Miami must still play the Bills and Houston, so neither team will be able to breeze through their schedule. If the Bills plan on making a run for the playoffs, they’re pass defense must improve. The pass rush was not effective against the Jets and that makes the secondary’s job even tougher. Offensively, the Bills are dynamite. Even when the Juice was dried up by the Jets on Sunday, Buffalo was still able to score 24 points. Their only problem has been turnovers. It doesn’t take a George Allen to realize that no matter how many yard O.J. gains, if he fumbles the ball every time, Buffalo won’t win. Buffalo isn’t going to non-chalant its way into the playoffs, but the Bills are not out of it yet either. With better defense, fewer mistakes and a break here and there, Buffalo may find itself at the top of the AFC East after the fourteenth week. TODRY!!

This gradual deterioration with the elimination of started process intercollegiate football, and has continued with funding cutbacks and the elimination of varsity crew, he said. by John Butler Spectrum Staff Writer In a couple of weeks, University students will be able to view television broadcasts of their varsity sports teams in action. Act V, Buffalo’s closed circuit campus television station, will be airing intercollegaite hockey, basketball, wrestling and other sporting events as the year continues. Carl Ferraro, coordinator of these weekly broadcasts, cited a number of reasons for the programs’ airing. He feels there is a general lack of exposure toward sports on campus, and believes that these broadcasts could help- remedy that situation. Ferraro maintains that this program will also promote student interest in sports, while enlivening campus and community relations. Ferraro believes that athletics plays a vital role in college life, and he feels that the lack of concern for sports is a “cardinal sin and a disaster.” He hopes .that with these broadcasts, sports'will create a positive image of this school in the Buffalo community. The first of these programs, which will air on Tuesday evenings, will deal with the thoughts of administrators, coaches, athletes, and students concerning sports on campus, and will allow the viewer a consensus on that topic. The shows will try to alter some of the prevailing attitudes toward sports at this University. The broadcasts will be aired on cable television and in Haas Lounge. Ketter deterred? Ferraro also sees the broadcasts as a means of deterring the ever growing attitude of the Ketter “siCKiE THIS HURSDRY Nov. 6th 10:30 - “You are making the biggest mistake of your life” 11:30 ■m at Rosary Hill College \ WAKE UP ; OR THE ORGANIZATION WILL GET YOU!!!

Edward Doty, vice president for Finance told The Management and must Coop that the Spectrum shut down by Friday, November 7 Ih. (SA) Association Michele Smith first received the unexpected news in a memo from Doty dated October 24, 1975. Doty said in the memo that he was forced to close the Coop upon receipt of a formal protest regarding the Record Coop from Carl C. Cavage, President ofCavages, Inc. the that Cavage charged is “use Record Coop a continuous of the resources of the State of New York to conduct ruinous private with competition further Cavage enterprise.” claimed that the University’s support of the Coop “is contrary to the Charter of the University and a misuse of public tunds.” Student I’rcsident .. Pressure from the Legislature Doty, who was out of town until Thursday, said that if he allowed the Record Coop to remain open, “Cavage could talk firmly with local legislators.” Doty indicated that the state could have great legislature influence over this University, “especially at a time when we are fighting against budget cutbacks." A lawsuit initiated against the University by Cavage would be unlikely, Doty said. SA representatives and their lawyer, Richard Lippes, will meet with Doty tomorrow, but as of Friday, they had not formulated a strategy. A student-run coop was first approved on September 13, 1971, when University President Robert Ketter established three guidelines to which such an enterprise would have to conform. The first guideline required that records be kept of the gross receipts and net income of the Coop which must be presented on a monthly basis to James Gruber. Director of Norton Hall. In turn. Gruber was to have tiled one copy with the University's Business Office. More guidelines Ketter further mandated that the Coop's net proceeds be subject to the same SUNY Board of Trustees regulations which of the expenditure govern students mandatory fees. The final guideline stipulated that “this approval is for the academic year 1971-72, (and it) expires on June 1, 1972, and wdl he renewed only upon application of the SA and a review of the of the 1971-72 results experience Doty charged in Ins memo to Smith that the first and third condition had not been met, and that the University “therefore doesn't know whether condition two has or has not been met.” While admitting that “perhaps I should have come down harder," Doty maintains that on numerous occasions he instructed Gruber to seek monthly statements of the However, one spokesperson for the Coop claimed that because that Van Nortwick advised were statements monthly impractical, Coop representatives worked out a verbal agreement to present with Gruber statements. All semi-annual parties agreed that such a plan would more accurately reflect gross profits, the spokesperson said Informal agreement Gruber and Van Nortwick Since the Coop is not affiliated deny Nortwick that any such agreement was with Sub Board. Van ever made. Any statements which no said he has official connection to it. Me did. however, serve the Gruber received from the Coop were “sporadic,” he said. Coop in an informal, advisory SA is currently investigating its manner, due to its affiliations continued on page 12 with SA Record Coop's financial affairs Gruber, who also admits some degree of negligence, confirmed Doty’s report, but added that each time he received a reminder from Doty, he spoke with the of the Coop or managers conveyed the message to Tom Van Nortwick, treasurer of Sub Board, Inc. Intercollegiates Ketter says coaches’ salaries safe till 1977 Demonstrators support WSC Over 100 people joined members of Women’s Studies College (WSC) in an orderly picket line around Hayes Hall Friday to express support for the survival of the WSC program. Friday, October 31, was the deadline set by (or WS( to revise its charter by administration the unlawlul from its word the dropping non-discrimination clause. Although the College comply with this order, to has agreed administration officials gave no indication whether they would still discontinue WSC funding and pull its courses out of the Admissions and Records computer for the spring semester. The march, which began at 12 noon in the Norton Fountain area and ended promptly at 1 p.m. was kicked off by an array of original songs, including one to the tune of “Clementine” with the chorus. Stop the deadlines, stop the deadlines, Stop the deadlines now today We are going to keep the College Women’s Studies is here to stay. On the lighter side, WSC supporters, in their efforts not to let Halloween pass them by, selected a line from Shakespeare's A/ac/rc/ft which they chanted as follows: Double, bubble, war ami rubble, when you mess with women, you'll be in trouble. The Athletic Department has been assured by President Robert Ketter that the salaries of the intercollegiate athletic coaches will be maintained through the 1976 77 academic year. The salary lines were slated to be cut from the Faculty of Health Sciences budget during the summer as a result of belt-lightening measures imposed by the University. Ketter made the assurances to Harry Fritz, Dean of the School of Health Education, at a meeting of administration and Athletic Department officials last week A panel to study intramural and intercollegiate programs at the University and to make recommendations about continued funding will soon be appointed by Ketter. Nominations for this committee froiri constituency groups here are now being solicited, and the panel is expected to make its recommendations before the end of the academic year. Fluctuating support University Information Services Director Jim DeSantis said the panel will “look at the whole thing in depth,” and examine all aspects of the Athletic Department’s operations and future prospects. He said athletics have had “fluctuating support” on campus for some time, and there hasn’t been a panel of this kind in at least ten years. Thomas Craine, assistant to Ketter, agreed that athletics “have been a problem.” He said he did not know where the funds for the coaches’ salaries for 1976 77 would come from, but denied they would come out of the possible closing of Women’s Studies College, which could free $39,000. “There is no connection between that and any other program at this University,” he said since, “things are examined on their own merits Frit/ was unavailable for comment, but Assistant Dean Thomas McIntyre said the Department had no comment at this time. �Equal Rights amendment on the Equal Rights Amendment Volunteers are needed to distribute information Erie County on election day, Tuesday. at various polling places throughout a meeting of the Coalition for ERA to attend November 4.

Observers point to the rising cost of the benefits program as a major factor behind the move to kill the G.l. Bill. The Senate Committee Affairs Veterans estimates that education benefits for veterans this year will cost the government S6.2 billion a hefty increase over the $4 billion predicted in President Ford’s budget last February. The increasing amount of money poured into G.l. Bill benefits can be partly attributed to the growing popularity of the According to the program.

Now officially considered a “College Workshop,” ILC will go before the College Charter Committee in January 1976. As a College Workshop, the Center will “develop its academic programs, achieve interaction between faculty and students, and, most importantly, write its charter,” explained assistant director of Foreign Affairs Kirk Robey. According to the “Prospectus for the Colleges,” every new college must begin with Workshop status for at least one semester befpre being considered for chartering. College Dean Irving Spitzberg said presently, ILC conducts “social activities, but there is no coherent academic program as a part of the residential system. To create a living-learning program, ILC needs an academic program.” In order to academically satisfy the international interests of students, an international college must be developed, said Spitzberg. I SUNY Geneseo Protest against budget cuts by Paul Buttino Sense of community Spectrum Staff Writer In addition, he noted that the College’s development “seemsappropriate” since ILC creates a sense of community in Ellicott that Over 1,000 State University (SUNY) students fits into the Collegiate system. However, Spitzberg indicated that the creation of a college is rallied at Geneseo Thursday to express concern over impossible unless there is strong faculty and student interest in the the expected devastating effect New York City’s project.

Shank foresees a state bankruptcy “much worse than the crash” of 1929, and urges everyone to write Ford and give him that message. State-wide barometer Kirkpatrick said the present situation can be used as a state-wide “barometer.” ‘The City University of New York has undergone budget reductions upwards of 100 million dollars, and they haven’t been given any reasonable plan for implementing those reductions.” Kirkpatrick speculated that if the federal government aids New York state, the federal government will move in and assume considerable control. He added that the new SUNY bddget continues a trend of more students per faculty member on all campuses. “For the past five years, the student-faculty ration has been gradually increasing. Classes have been getting larger every year.” Kirkpatrick said Congress is “playing around” with efforts to bail out New York City. ‘They are toying with a number of bills . . which are related to the kind of assistance Governor Carey is asking for.” The problem, Kirkpatrick went on to explain, is the tying in of these bills with mandated increases in New York state taxes. . Limited resources Asked if the federal government is the only institution that can effectively help New York City at this time, he replied that although the state backed New York City’s bonds and outstanding debts, “the state doesn’t have unlimited resources.” Meanwhile, State University at Buffalo Student Association (SA) President Michele Smith said her organization was concentrating its etlorts on a letter writing campaign. She said the campus student governments had drafted a letter to President Robert Ketter requesting that he set up a committee to coordinate efforts against SUNY cuts here. Tables are set up on the Amherst and Mam Street Campuses to inform students of SUNY s impending trouble and to encourage people to write President Ford and Congress. What New York City is asking for, he went on, is a guarantee for $6 billion worth of bonds. It s obvious the federal government is the solution of last resort Students at Brockport report plans for a rally next week with members of the Governor’s office the State Legislature and Faculty-Senate. A moratorium on classes is also being considered. Most colleges and universities plan a moratorium of classes on November 18, in conjunction with a lobby in Washington, D.C. by representatives of most SUNY schools for aid to New York City.

The students remained in his office last Thursday and Friday and threatened to stay all weekend. Purchase is a small, arts-oriented college located fifteen miles outside New York ■City in suburban Westchester County. The students vowed to stay the weekend unless SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer can assure the College in writing that the Film program will not be eliminated, as SUNY is rumored to be considering, and that $350,000 for film equipment, appropriated two years ago, but never spent, be released to Purchase. As The Spectrum went to press, Kaplan had been unsuccessful in attempts to reach Boyer before the weekend. The film students insist that the promised film equipment is absolutely essential to finish required projects. The students also were protesting the dropping of plans to build a Theater Arts building on the still uncompleted Purchase campus. Town meeting The sit-in started when 60 film students occupied Kaplan's ollice at 9 a.m. Thursday morning. They were joined by 200 other students when a “town meeting’’ between Purchase students, laculty and administration broke up at 8:30 p.m. Thursday night. Vice President for the Arts John Strauss told the students, “there are no plans to discontinue the (film) program. There are no plans to cut back, and there is no freeze on funds. That doesn’t mean there won’t be one, but there isn’t one now." The Film Division is operating under the same budget it has had for the past three years, despite a quadrupling of film students during that time, students in Kaplan’s office said In addition, radio and television programs that the Purchase catalogue says are offered by the Film Division have yet to materialize, despite mention in catalogues going hack to 1672. According to protesting students, a film professor privy to discussions on* the future of the program “leaked" the information that the program might be cut, sparking the sit-in and other protests Coed living policies ease up by Cynthia Crossen Special to The Spectrum University rules against men and (CPS) women spending the night under the same roof have - relaxed somewhat in recent months, but outright cohabitation is still against most official policy. More campus dorms have been converting to coed living, visitation hours on many campuses run all day every day and some local officials won’t other unless enforce anti-cohabitation laws complaints are involved. But most university administrators still maintain an official stance against cohabitation and local officials will occasionally enforce the city laws. Farlier this month, 15 University of Montana students learned that local zoning law prohibited cohabitation. The city of Missoula’s building inspector said he doesn’t have the time to check every house in the University area for “zoning violations, but would evict tenants for cohabitation if other complaints were involved. Students living in an apartment complex at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) in New York have also tangled with university and local officials over cohabitation policies. In cases where there have been other problems between student tenants and the university landlord, cohabitation has been cause for eviction “We do not condone or allow cohabitation, RIT’s director of Business Services said But “if I just happen to know we have a situation possibly violating the lease but there aren't any other problems such as dogs or cals, it is practically impossible for us to police who is living in apartments,” he added if not schools, coed living, At othef cohabitation, is making advances. A university apartment in Oregon is now officially coed, a first for the University of Oregon Changes there were easier than in other university housing since the building was originally designed as an apartment house with separate bathrooms and living rooms At some schools, like Standford University, the dorms are coed by floor or corridor and have been very popular with students for several years. One student claimed that Stanford’s dorms had optional coed rooms, but university housing officials said it was not authorized by them. “Things like that do occur but it’s not university policy,” a spokesman said. “But coed situations aren’t usually associated with a lot of problems.” Coed dorms at the State University of New York (SUNY) at Ceneseo have worked out so well that students camp overnight in front of the housing office to reserve a room in one. The dorms there are coed by floor or suite and there is a 24-hour visitation policy for everyone but the coed-by-suile dorms, l or these close quarters the University requires an 8-hour break in visitation hours every night. for the policy, as the (>eneseo President explained, are that there is no way to 24-hour enforce cohabitation restrictions with visitation and that everyone should have the fight to study without the boy or girlfriend of the roommate around. The irony, according to one resident advisor there, is that no one bothers to enforce the no-cohabitation rule anyway Students at the University of South Carolina were told they could integrate one of their women’s dorms without any request or agreement from the women who live in it In fact, many of the women were “shocked" at the proposal The president of the dorm claimed that the plan was "too liberal for many of the girls in the dorm Dorm residents will have the final say on the coed proposal but the Dean of Residence Life has already come out in favor of the idea. “Coed living can be an enjoyable experience educationally,” he said “f rom my own experience, I can say that it does not lead to promiscuity which the press would have us believe The reasons ” ADVERTISEMENT WAS RUN IN THE OCTOBER 30th EDITION OF THIS Opinion THE LAW SCHOOL NEWSPAPER WHY WE URGE YOU TO VOTE NED REGAN FOR COUNTY EXECUTIVE as law students we Some of us have had the chance to work in the county Government; are all concerned with government.

THE STROH BREWERY COMPANY, DETROIT, MICHIGAN 4S31« �County Executive Dekdebrun and Regan vie for the same position by Pat Quinlivan City Editor “People are afraid of big government,” says Ned Regan, Republican candidate for County Executive. “Things are getting out of hand. And they’re uneasy about things they don’t have any control over, like inflation and unemployment.” Regan is running for re-election to the County Executive spot, although riding might be a better word for it. This past Tuesday evening, for example, he made five campaign appearances in three hours before gatherings ranging from 25 to 2000 people. Speaking before a large group of Tonawanda at the Republicans Hearthstone Manor in Depew, Regan boasted that Erie County has the “strongest government in upstate New York.” “We have maintained a degree of fiscal stability that keeps our credit bond rating at double-A, and that rating has been reaffirmed and reaffirmed again,” he involvement and spirit. A short while before that, he had been the “dishonored” guest of the Niagara Frontier Builders Association in a meeting at the Pellamwood House in West Seneca. This group is currently suing Regan for $ 1,000,000 for his imposition of a building moratorium in several sewer districts of the county, around the Southtowns area. Regan told his somewhat hostile audience that he was willing to work with them on the problem, but explained the difficulties that faced him when he came into office. So bad “Four years ago,” he asserted, “the water pollution programs in Erie County were so bad that the state people wouldn’t even talk to the county people. Two weeks ago, an Environmental Protection Agency related. Earlier, Regan told a reporter from The with him, that Spectrum traveling government has a responsibility to help the elderly, but it is equally important that the people do not let the government carry too large a share of the burden. Personal interest “The problem is that once government gets its hands on something, it tends to take it over,” Regan noted. He stressed that the people must take a personal interest in the well-being of the elderly of their families and their communities. While gobbling down a sandwich in his car (which is being rented by his campaign committee), Regan told of a question he had from a teenager earlier that day, at a high school discussion group conducted at Medaille College. ‘The student asked why we do things for the elderly all the time, and not for the kids, and I told her that you have to make your presence felt. ‘Register to vote! All those elderly people are registered, and you better believe they vote in every election!’, I said. Regan then remarked on a group of generally older people he had briefly addressed at the start of his travels that night, the Central Park Men’s Club. He said they “help keep the Central Park area a solid neighborhood,” through community action, one of his favorite themes. ” Enjoys his work As he neared the end of a fourteen-hour day of official and campaign activities, Regan made an unscheduled stop at a Buffalo Bills Booster Club meeting, when asked to do so. There he praised both the Bills and their fans for their community Editor’s note: The Spectrum City Editor Pat Quinlivan spent time with both major candidates for the office of County Executive this past week. He traveled with Ned Regan on Tuesday night, accompanying him on a campaign swing through the county. On Thursday afternoon, he interviewed Al Dekdebrun for about forty minutes at Erie County Democratic Headquarters on a wide range of topics. Both candidates were extremely cooperative, and every effort was made by the writer to provide fair and impartial coverage, in spite of the differing circumstances. by Pat Quinlivan City Editor “The real issue in this campaign is the local economic situation,” claims A1 Dekdebrun, Amherst Supervisor and Democratic candidate for County Executive. Dekdebrun says that the solution to this problem is contained in his 18-point program for economic development, which has been garnered from the successful procedures used by other cities and towns which faced fiscal crises similar to that of the Niagara Frontier. The 54-year-old former football star says that when County Executive Ned Regan was running four years ago, he said his highest priority would be to provide jobs for the area. Since that time, Dekdebrun points out, 43 plants and companies have left Western New York, and the number of unemployed has increased from 50,000 to 80,000. “We can fight back, and nobody can tell me we can’t bring industry back into this area,” Dekdebrun insisted. He noted that 80,000 young people have moved away from the area in the last 15 years “You know as well as I do what that will mean if we don’t do something about it we’ll have all consumers and no producers.” lost. Now Erie County will have to pay at least 8'/4 percent on those bonds, because the five-year limit on selling them will expire in February. He (Regan) must be held accountable.” In a campaign appearance at the Club Como in South Buffalo, Dekdebrun blasted the County Executive for increasing the number of people on the county payroll. — — Ned Regan (EPA) man said Erie had the most programs going for water pollution of any county in the country! That’s progress, and that’s real progress!” As for the claims of his major opponent, Al Dekdebrun, that he [Dekdebrun) had a sewage treatment plant built in Amherst that was 87‘A percent federally and state-funded, Regan replied that he, as County Executive, took the Amherst people to Washington, where they met the EPA officials, who then allocated $ 120 million to the Amherst project. He added, ‘‘If not for myself in County government, Amherst sewers wouldn’t be in the improved shape they’re in now.” Regan assured the builders that he believed ‘‘the need for housing is as strong as the need for water pollution abatement,” but made it clear that “houses can go up only as fast as there are sewers • -continued on page 6 There are (wo minor party candidates for County executive this year. Neither of them has held any elective office before in Erie County. Harold W. Schroeder is the Conservative candidate. He defeated County Executive Ned Regan for the nomination by a slim 18 votes in the primary. Schroeder’s espoused program is to cut government to the minimum, in order to reduce taxes. His campaign headquarters said he would not speak to a reporter from The Spectrum The Liberal Party candidate is Donna J. Luh. She has been active in the upper echelons of the local Liberal Party for several years. Many attractions The candidate pointed out that the Buffalo area has a lot of things which could attract businesses, such as power, water, transportation and land, as well as recreational, educational and cultural attractions What Erie County needs, Dekdebrun spirit. “We have to instill more pride, more spirit into the people of this community.” The primary tool for the improvement of Erie County’s economy, Dekdebrun believes, is the creation of an Industrial Development Committee, similar to the one he started in Amherst, to bring new businesses to the area. “Fifty percent of my time as County Executive will have to be put into the Industrial Development Committee; getting the proper people for it ami getting it rolling,” he told The Spectrum. Dekdebrun lashed out at his major opponent, Regan, and his handling of the county bonds that were used to build Rich Stadium says, is more community Bonds not sold Commenting on the fact that $14 million worth of the stadium bonds have not yet been sold, Dekdebrun charged, ‘They gambled, thinking they could get a better deal than or 4 percent, and they Al Dekdebrun He said that in 1971, there were approximately 9,500 county employees, and although the County Executive has denied any large increase in the size of the county’s payroll, County Legislator Ray Gallagher of Lackawanna and South Buffalo received a computer printout last February which showed that the county employed 12,545 people. On another economic front, Dekdebrun hammered away at Regan for his refusal to release next year’s county budget before the election, and claimed that a tax increase was in store for the voters. Down the road’ Speaking at Pangel’s Bar and Grill on Abbott Road, before a crowd of Democratic party workers, Dekdebrun said that the time when Erie County will pay for Regan’s policies is “down the road,” but it is coming soon, nevertheless. Facing the difficult question of the relationship that should exist between the people and their government, Dekdebrun said that “centralization has its benefits, but local autonomy must not be trampled upon,” although the latter can and does sometimes result in duplication of services. Dekdebrun admits that he should have taken a different stand on the stadium —continued on page 6 — vote! Monday, 3 November 1975 . The Spectrum .

It should have been downtown, and it should have been a combination stadium.” He based this opinion, in part, on his observations of cities such as Atlanta and Cincinnati, which built downtown stadia that gave re-birth to their downtown areas, both during the day and at night. Ford’s attitude The plight of New York City bothers him, in particular the attitude of President Ford and his administration. “Here we’re dealing with human beings, and they’re taking the attitude they’re taking,” he said, shaking his head. Dekdebrun favors federal aid to New York — in the form of a guaranteed loan, and with a federal team of economic experts overseeing the city’s recuperation. As the campaign draws to a close, Dekdebrun sighs and says, “1 must have shaken 50,000 hands since June,” when he started his fight for the Democratic nomination. He feels that the Conservative candidate, Harold W. Schroeder, will help his candidacy, by drawing off disgruntled Republicans who might not be able to bring themselves to vote for a Democrat. Dekdebrun cited a poll which showed himself and Regan tied, with a substantial percentage of the voters, 27 percent, undecided. He said that it will be “a horse t race.” �RECORDS Phil Everly, Mystic Line (Pye Records) During the 1950’s and early 60’s Phil Everly composed and recorded dozens of hits as one half of the Everly Brothers, the other member being his brother Don. The Everly Brothers remained a duo up until 1974 when commercial disappointment led to the dissolution of their musical partnership. Since then, they’ve each gone their separate ways. Phil signed with Pye Records after putting out one financially disastrous album on Warner Brothers. Don should be coming out with an album in the near future. Phil’s album was his second effort of 1975 and his most experimental. Everly not only does his country-rock ballads, but hard rockers, and even a reggae tune in his remake of “Whfen Will 1 Be Loved.” Though his diversity shows he’s progressing musically, and not stagnating like many of the artists of the 50’s, most of the tracks are no better than mediocre. The music is pleasant and free flowing but leaves one with the feeling you’ve heard it all before. Nothing really stands out as a “Laughter In The Rain” stood out for Sedaka, or that would bring Everly back to the limelight. The album isn’t bad, but for Phil Everly to make a successful comeback he needs something out of the ordinary. Every week dozens of albums comparable in quality to Mystic Line are released. Unfortunately, only a minute percentage of these albums sell and most of the albums that do are by established artists. Thus, though this album is more than respectable, it’s riot enough. Everly will have to come out with an outstanding disc in order to break through the commercial barrier of rock music. Otherwise he’ll wind up drifting from label to label, sliding into rock music oblivion. Perhaps Everly is no longer the writer and musician he once was; this may just be his best efforts. Certainly, nothing here compares with the Everly of 1960, though in 1960 Phil Everly was at the peak of his creative energies. The album’s diversity is one of Its chief assets and the vocal work is above average. However, the album as a whole is stamped with mediocrity. If Phil Everly wants to come back, he’ll have to come up —Steven Brieff with something better than this. , along quite well. His experimenting finished. Mason finally gets back to business with a nice melody and some effective slide work. The rest of the album is Dave Mason as 1 remember him, not too loud but very effective. I hate to call him mellow (the term is often abused) but he is. His guitar work is intricate yet melodic, his sad love songs wandering further away with each new chord. And even though he does it album after album, 1 never tire of it. But these are the good old days, remember? And see, things haven’t changed all that much. Dave Mason is still Dave Mason, and it’s unlikely he’ll ever change. The million people who usually buy his records probably hope he never will either. -John Trigilio Com. on down Last Chance New Clan Starts Nov. 6th UB KOREAN STYLE - JM m, //A|||\| C * Dave Mason, Split Coconut, (Columbia) The more things change, the more they stay the same, as the saying goes. Rock musicians always seem to be undergoing some sort of change but most of the time they end up with the same formula that has kept them around in the first place. Basically, this is what happened to Dave Mason with his latest album. Split Coconut. First impressions are usually deceptive, and this is no exception. What starts out as a different Mason ends up in typical Mason-style, and the transition is so subtle that the listener doesn’t care to notice what’s really happened. But that’s just it. Nothing has happened. Good ol’ Dave tries to fool us for a while with a little change of style, but he still knows how to sell his albums. Time and travel haven’t eroded his unique style, and he might as well get it while he can. Side one is where he tries to fool us. The first cut, the title track, is mostly an instrumental Latin-rock number, although not quite the same Latin-rock that Santana made famous. This is lighter, bouncier, happier; it’s carefree and continuous, and Mason lets Mark Jordan have most of the fun with his keyboards and clarinet. But the familiar guitar is still there even though the setting has changed. The very next song takes us even farther into the tropics and leaves me wondering what the hell Mason is doing. It is unlike anything he’s ever done before, and the lack of his guitar leaves too many voids to make this song go. “Crying, Waiting, and Hoping” left me crying, waiting and hoping for my old idol’s return. The next song gets the album on track. “You can Lose It” is cut in the traditional model, and David Crosby and Graham Nash’s harmonies help it 4:30 5:30pm T ~—' Oan Tim.

Page seven �Broken record To the Editor: With the current action of the administration concerning the closing of the Record Coop here, the administration has opened a “Pandora’s Box” not only for itself, but for the entire University community as well. In the past two months, I, as an out of state student, have witnessed too many cut-backs in my educational experience here at Buffalo because of a state financial dilemma for which I am in no way responsible. This most recent action only heightens my anger. Mr. Cavage, through his actions, is taking an action which I feel is both outrageous and illegal. The Record Coop is a non-profit organization which provides a service for students of this University. Mr. Cavage, in an effort to remove competition from his sphere of livelihood, is coming dangerously close to a violation of anti-trust laws. If indeed the Record Coop is closed, will Mr. Cavage then have the right to ask for the closing of the “Record Runner” store four doors to the left of the Cavage’s in University Plaza? It too competes for the patronage of the entire Buffalo community. Secondly, how much business does the Record Coop actually take away from Cavage’s total income per year? If indeed the Coop is a direct threat to Mr. Cavage’s livelihood, I for one would like to see authenticated figures to prove this fact. Third, the action of the administration prompts another thought. If President Ketter were to receive a formal complaint from the major transportation corporations operating in Buffalo, would he abolish and take action against people attempting to use a “ride board” to find an affordable means of transportation to wherever they are going? What about the pharmacy which is due to go into operation here on campus sometime in the near future? President Ketter has given himself the power to shut down any University service in assuming the role of a veritable dictator. Where does this leave us? 1 for one am tired of being informed of further cut-backs on an almost constant basis, by an administration which obviously has no concern for its student body. The administration itself is beginning to sound like a broken record. I appeal to each and every student of this University to come out of his or her shell and let the administration know how you feel after all, it’s your University and you are paying for it . . . — Daniel A. Neeb The Ultimate To the Editor. I’m not sure I understand what David Rubin’s point was in his “Bullpen” column last Friday. If he was attempting to compare Ultimate Frisbee to dodge ball or shuffleboard, then he obviously has no of the game. First, Ultimate Frisbee (perhaps in part because of its novelty), is much more exciting than baseball, as good exercise as practically any sport on campus, and requires less equipment than intramural football. Second, in our first home game, on the desolate Amherst Campus, we had a better crowd than (varsity) cross country, (varsity) soccer or (varsity) tennis have probably ever had here. In fact, the student turnout would probably equal that of some basketball games in Clark Gym. I doubt that even Rubin’s ingenious intramural parking would get that kind of response on this campus. understanding Mark Schumacher Captain, UB Frisbee Team The Spectrum Monday, 3 November 1975 32 Vol. 26, No. Editor-in-Chief — Amy Dunkln Richard Korman Managing Editor Advertising Manager - Gerry McKeen Business Manager Howard Koenig — — Backpage Campus City Composition Copy Feature .

Spending a weekend in Seattle for a conference recently reminded me of how some of the rest of the world lives. I put my sun glasses somewhere the first day 1 was there and was afraid I had lost them on the way home, since it had been unnecessary to use them. When I mentioned this to a Washington resident flying east, he pointed out that it had been similar weather for another week before I arrived, making it many consecutive days of gloom and light drizzle. I sit here chillier than I would like, since we still haven’t gotten the landlord to fix part of our heat, and unhappy about that. On the other hand, the reality is that we have probably seen more in a two week period' than Washington, state of, is liable to see between now and the new year. It is admittedly hard to hear this read it? when the weather stirs memories of struggling through the teeth of a 30 mph gale driving a great deal of snow in front of it. And the woolly worms have thick bands this year. Where was it that I heard that the U.S. government was setting up a woolly worm research center to investigate how accurately said woolly worms do predict the weather? Which has to be a fascinating can of worms for the U.S. government to be involved in. Almost as fascinating as the refusal by the federalists to be involved in the New York City fiscal mess. I have not seen a breakdown anywhere of what the City of New York residents pay in taxes to the U.S. government and the state of New York, both individual and corporation, but I have this If £ suspicion that what is paid out far exceeds what is paid in. If Mailer and Breslin had been l~\ Vl/vlA l/Vi If Lf elected some years ago and succeeded from at least the state tomorrow the world! by S( eese perhaps the state would be defunct Possible histories aside, the decision by Ford to stand fast on New York City being not given a penny is, quite simply, stupid. Well, not everybody’s perfect, and he is at least consistent! Where were all these gripes and bitches when the Lockheed loan situation came up not so terribly long ago. Those folks are supposed to make a profit, and when they blew it here comes Uncle Sugar to bail out a frankly capitalistic enterprise. I may be a little odd, but it does seem to me that New York City is at least as important to the national defense picture as Lockheed. On the other hand, if New York City does default it may be that Kissinger can swap it for something or other that the Russians have that he wants, this week. Maybe if he threw in Long Island for use as a missile base they would take it. Fearless Gerald Ford, always ready to make the hard decision that will out-flank Ronald Reagan, the silver tongued grey haired boy (?) wonder of the right. Look at it this way, folks, if Humphrey wins the Democratic nomination, and Wallace forms a third party, and Ford holds on to the Republican nomination and Reagan bolts to form an alternate — — flftll — — - you will be able to a fourth party? third party? Ford and Wallace, Humphrey, between choose to believe that Abe supposed And I’m Reagan. Beame is incompetent? How much worse can he be in comparison with that can anyone be conglomeration? Pardon me whilst I be bitter. It is the middle of the political clap trap season and it is very difficult to avoid the onslaught, no matter what the variety of media involved. There seems to be very little worth getting excited about, with the notable exception of the ERA. Which is sure as hell going to pass some day, one way or another, as it so richly deserves to this time around. So it might as well be now and save everyone a lot of grief. It is peculiar to watch people duck, wobble and evade some issues. The Equal Rights Amendment seems to clearly be one such an issue. Erich Fromm wrote a book called “Escape from Freedom,” a fair while back. About how people would sometimes rather live restricted than face the problems of having to make choices. Being a man who still has a number of unsettled issues around woman, purely personal neuroses of one sort or another, it is easier for me to understand why men are scared of anything that might in any way make women in general more threatening. Let us be clear that the “more threatening” refers to subjective judgments made by those threatened by the ERA, there being nothing in the amendment that won’t give women the same rights that men already have. If men in general haven’t done so well with them, that hardly seems a reason to deny them to women because some of them might do better. Which I suppose is one “threatening” possibility. If everybody turns out to be competent at just about everything, how will anybody be able to tell who is superior? Enough about men. A fear of freedom seems clearest in those women who don’t wany any possible threat to their way of life. And who have somehow seized on the ERA as the evil which seeks to deprive them of the security of sameness. There is an old song about a bird in a gilded cage, who is “.. . more to be pitied than censured.” Efforts to be romantic, and to control all change by stopping it, can only cause even more problems than allowing something to grow unchecked. It is a complex world, to simplify it to absurdity is worse than stupid, it is dangerous. It is a denial of growth. To say that men and women aren’t legally equal is to say that there are two species sharing this planet. While they may look very similar, and be very nice to have around for a variety of reasons, they are basically different. After all if God had wanted us to be equal, we would all have breasts and a penis, right? Sorry, I have been listening to too many political speeches, too many endless hours of rhetorical questions about the state of the economy being everybody elses’ fault. Did you remember to give Abe Beame a quarter when he came to your door on Halloween? You are a nice person. Pax. Live well. Stay warm and vote for the ERA. - - - - Unfair competition To the Editor. Corner Store. It’s big business, Mr. Cavage, and if you can’t take the competition, don’t try to form a I was shocked at the article that let us all know that the Coop is closing down. I think the reasons for closing are an excuse. If Mr. Cavage feels that our Coop is hurting his business, why doesn’t he lower his prices somewhat? True, he can’t equal our prices, but he could compete. He has several other stores which do not even, and would not, attract University business. So what is his complaint? His prices are among the highest and even without the Coop, I will not, and urge others not to patronize Mr. Cavage’s stores in any manner. When the Corner Stores near my house lowered milk prices, the Mesmer’s nearby also had to lower their prices, though reluctantly, to compete with the monopoly. I m also stunned that the University would go along with Mr. Cavage. If he wants a suit, let him have one. We could raise prices only $.25, we would then be making profits (which could be put to good use) and would maintain a student favorite and an educational advancement in business for those associated with the Coop. Again, I urge total non-patronizing of Mr Cavage’s stores and urge the University to look deeper into this situation. We want the Coop, and thus should have it. Name withheld upon request Flower budget To the Editor. I am a member of a department that is crying for money. Recently two instructors were denied tenure and because of budget cuts, cannot be replaced. This circumstance concomittantly wiped out one specialty area in the department. My questions are: 1. Who pays for all the pretty flowers planted on our campuses all year long? 2. How much does it cost for the flowers and the labor to plant, and otherwise weed our flower gardens, as I witnessed last week? 3. Are flowers more important than educational services? 4. If for some perfectly idiotic reason, which I sure is not beyond you or any other members of the administration, there has been money allocated for planting flowers that cannot be used for more worthwhile services, I would like to request more pink pansies and lovely little lemon yellow lilacs planted this year, since these are our favorites.

There is a strong possibility that New York State will default by the end of this year if New York City is allowed to default on December 1. The main reason for this is because the market has linked New York State bonds with New York .City bonds. If this happens, although no one knows the exact implications of a default we can be certain of one thing it will threaten the quality of our entire - University system. Don’t shun this matter off your shoulder and think “This won’t affect me.” The fact is that the New York City and the New York State default will affect YOU. It could raise YOUR tuition and decrease the quality of YOUR education. Also, default would mean drastic program cuts and large scale retrenchment of faculty. Beyond the implications a default will have on the State University, there will be massive lay-offs of state employees, no available part time jobs and termination of many social service programs. Remember, SUNY is the largest employer in Western New York. These people cannot afford to lose their jobs now. Student Association has decided to take action. Across the state, students are embarking upon a mass letter writing campaign. This effort will culminate in a SUNY student rally in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday, November 18. We are urging our representatives to vote for any bill that will federally insure New York bonds. This solution will cost no one anything and brings in money for the federal government from taxes on the bonds. New York City will have to balance its budget because an Emergency Financial Control Board will be set up by the federal government to monitor the city’s spending. It is up to you to decide the future of your education. Write a letter to your representative today and volunteer to join the effort. Self-defense To the Editor. Stating that Zionism is a form of racism is a flagrant example of anti-semitism. All other arguments are semantics. Zion is just another name for Israel. The right of a Jew to live in Israel is not open to questioning by murderous terrorists. It seems that the world community has completely forgotten the recent, very recent, 1940’s genocide committeed against the Jews under the watchful silence of world communities.

He is one of them, and together they form a consortium that is at best academically compromise its educational standards and bankrupt, but which nonetheless administers a institutional integrity in order to satiate the 400,000 student University system. This consortium of self-interested “pinacles of interests of area businessmen and politicians. The responsibility for this rests solely on the community” relegates State University to the President Robert Ketter. He has saddled the level of the Bingo Commission in the way its University with inept vice presidents, most of economic priorities are decided and its budget cuts whom have no conception of what an educational are divided among the state agencies.

When the President of the University can’t stand nationally pre-emminent institution has been up for his students, he has betrayed them, and it is lowered by its President to the depths of political time for a change. trade-offs. If Ketter had publicly rejected any Ketter’s philosophy of students, however, is compromise in academic quality as a basis of The administration’s decision to close the Record Coop does not come as a surprise in light of the University’s increasing willingness to not unique. The Ford Administration has recently deemed college students unworthy of U.S. because they Coupons Government Food “voluntarily choose to be unemployed.” Is that why Richard Nixon is getting after “voluntarily” resigning? over $150,000 a year While Ketter may be a man of much integrity and determination, shown in a genuine desire to act in the best interests of the University, his philosophy has become warped and destructive, yet prevent and may this institution from becoming an important contributor to the academic world. Ketter fails to recognize that University administration bears a greater burden than merely allocating budgets, building facilities, and stuffing students into them. His engineering background has apparently robbed him of the ability to create the atmosphere of pride and purpose needed to allow the academic and social processes to merge and mature into an educational experience. Former President Martin Meyerson, with his faults, was at least able to excite the University into realizing its potential. Ketter was pushed down our throats a stagnating businessman whose job was to stifle the flow of adrenaline; a job he has done well. All Ketter can hope to leave the University is a big campus and tens of thousands of students and - support for Amherst, we would have gotten the campus anyway (what city official does not recognize the economic and cultural benefits of a great new campus). Besides, a University that is willing to stand up for its academic freedom attracts better students and higher quality faculty, which would be more advantageous for the city of Buffalo than factory-forcing students through four years of school. The University, through Ketter, is being coaxed into an educational graveyard built and maintained by SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer. That cannot continue. We must clearly distinguish ourselves from the rest of the downtrodden State University. Even if that means less money, the University will be better off in the long run. We are going nowhere now. Rockefeller had a great idea. He wanted to create a State University system that New Yorkers could be proud of, knowing full well that the entire state would benefit. But this vision died several years ago. We are left now with a President that sees only as far as his next five-year appointment, a Chancellor that looks forward to his big meetings in Washington, a banker-ridden all-powerful Board of Trustees in Albany that closely examines the Wall Street tickertape, and, of course, the politicians whose commitments go as far as the next election. To the Editor. This is an open letter to Mr. Edward Doty It has come to our attention that various enterprises operated by the FSA, IRCB Inc., Sub Board Inc., The Spectrum Student Periodical Inc , and the center lounge of Norton Hall use resources of the State of New York to conduct a ruinous competition with private local businesses. If Mr. Carl Cavage succeeds in closing down the Record Coop, then surely in the name of fairness, Campus Super Duper should force the closing of the food stores operated by the business arm of the Inter-Residence Council, citing Cavage vs. Record Coop as its reasoning. Similar lawsuits would then be filed by Buffalo Textbooks vs. University Bookstore, Lee’s Drugstore vs. Norton Candy W T. Grant Counter, the Buffalo Evening News and Courier Express vs. The Spectrum and the Broadway Market vs. Norton center lounge. The University does not earn any money from renting out the space used by these businesses, and therefore gives these organizations an undue edge over the local businesses in the city of Buffalo. If the University is in such a good financial status that it does not have to charge rent to some of its largest & tenants, then why is the University’s budget being frozen? Have we accumulated more money than we need, and then decide to return the money back to Albany so that New York City can survive? We should clear all of these business enterprises off of our campus so that we may spend all of our energies on education. Let the stores operate off campus, and if the students complain about not having a candy counter anymore, reply, “LET THEM EAT BREAD.” give them the Represent students price. I can see rto reason to shut the Coop down To the Editor unless University relations with Edward Doty Re: The University Record Coop Open Letter to The Record Coop is a legitimate student activity, which should continue to operate in Norton Hall regardless of pressures from local businessmen. The Coop is a non-profit student-run service, offering students music at cost. Of course, Cavage is losing business; he charges more money to make his profits. Records have gotten expensive enough, through inflation and the vinyl shortage. Students have ce together and volunteered their time free to help one another have access to music at a more reasonable a businessman are more important than independent student activities. Let Cavage sue; if justice prevails, he should lose. Right now he’s just threatening to see if the University will give in without a fight. I wonder if he is really prepared to waste his money on a full-blown law suit. Regardless of Cavage’s tactics, the University ought to stand by the Coop. It is scary to witness the power of one businessman - does he have the ability to control the activities of the entire University community? Keep the Coop open!

Goetz Monday, 3 November 1975 . The Spectrum . Page nine �While they're at it Shout out together Land story To the Editor: To the Editor. To the Editor. We would like to express full agreement with Carl C. Cavage, President of Cavages, in his objective of the “continued use of resources of the State of New York to conduct a ruinous competition with private enterprise,” as quoted in Friday’s The Spectrum. This calls to mind several other flagrant misuses of University facilities. We feel that the Underground Grub and Ellicottessen should be closed since they compete unfairly with local supermarkets. Food Service competes with nearby restaurants. The bars across the street lose customers to the Tiffin Room and Rat. Likewise, the theaters offer current movies at ruinous prices. The Craft Center supplies students with economical art supplies. The bowling alley, ping pong and pool room take business away from local facilities. On a larger scale, inter-campus busing interferes with city transportation. It is also obvious that on-campus housing deprives neighborhood landlords of an income. On the other hand, we applaud the University Bookstore for encouraging the patronage of local bookstores, with their discouraging prices. Now that this issue of the Record Co-op has been brought to light, perhaps the SUNY system itself should be investigated because it competes unfairly with the private colleges by offering lower tuition and more facilities. We, the undersigned, would like to be the first to support this cause. Michael Cray’s story on the Amherst land was I’ve never been more disgusted with an action incorrect on several points.

This letter is written in reply to a letter which appeared in the Wednesday, October 29 issue of The Spectrum. The forementioned manuscript had to do with a recent concert given by the Jerry Garcia Band at the Century Theater. Mr. Jablon (author of the letter) seemed to be terribly upset at the fact that Jerry wouldn’t come down till the audience was screaming loud enough. All this screaming was done for one reason and one reason only. It was done to satisfy Jerry’s stoned head. I was glad to contribute to the screaming because I knew Garcia would come out and satisfy my head not to mention everyone else’s stoned minds. He has been doing just that for ten years now. Any asshole who would form a vision of Adolf Hitler giving a speech while Jerry Garcia is on stage doesn’t deserve the right to be present at a Garcia concert or anyone else’s concert for that matter.

Once upon a time a little-known film critic named Andrew Sarris, writing for a little-known film magazine called Film Culture, published an article entitled Notes on the Auteur Theory in 1962. It extolled the virtues of the politque des auteurs which, in its simplest form, claimed that movies, particularly Hollywood movies, could be seen in terms of the personal style and vision of the director. This thesis (originally developed by Messieurs Truffaut, Renais, Godard Co. in the French film journal Cahiers du Cinema ) incurred the rath of a certain high-brow lady critic from San Francisco by the name of & Pauline Kael. Well, the rest is history. Sarris, notoriously celebrated as a result of Kael’s stinging rebuttal, is now chief film critic for The Village Voice, and the Auteur Theory is now an accepted (if not important) theory of the cinema. Even Kael has gotten into the habit of looking at films in terms of directorial style. But now that we think the controversy over Auteurism has been accepted once and for all, Richard C-orliss (a former student of Sarris, no less) comes along and kicks it around with his study entitled Talking Pictures. | AL/YAH DAY enough to stand beside other works of similar stature, including Sarris’ own reference work, The American Cinema: Directors and Directions, 1929-1968 (Dutton Paperback, $2.95). But Talking Pictures is more than mere reference for the film freak and/or scholar. Throughout his book, and most importantly in his introduction (appropriately entitled Notes on a Screenwriter’s Theory, 1973) Corliss aims at returning the screenwriter to his previously neglected place in American film history, and by recognizing his important role in the making of films. In neglecting the screenwriter, Corliss argues, the auteurists exalted the director as the sole creative force in the making of a motion picture. The auteurists, Corliss writes, instead of demolishing the traditional view “that the solitary, creative artist produced Art, while the interpretive, produced craftsman corporate, Entertainment,” actually reinforced it “What could have begun a systematic expansion of by calling attention to the American film history anonymous screenwriters, cinematographers, art directors, and, yes, even actors bogged down an endless coronation - — screenwriter. Corliss even audaciously adds that “when the script is the film’s distinctive the basis of a film’s success . qualities can be traced to the screenwriter.” If auteurists, Corliss argues, looked half as closely at the films of those screenwriters as they do with lesser directors, odds are they would find themselves “staring at some some dominant theme or style or plot or mood strong personal trait of film authorship.” But Corliss calls for not a battle-to-the-death between the advocates of the politique des auteurs and the politique des collaborateurs, but an end to it. He advocates a dialectical approach to the problem, a merging of thesis (auteurism) with antithesis (the screenwriter’s theory) to produce a synthesis that .. - recognizes the virtues, weaknesses and, most importantly, corroborative roles of both director and screenwriter without neglecting or ignoring either. And it is through this collaborative scheme that “the films that receive the highest praise in this book are those in creative association with whose writers and directors worked together toward a the actors and technicians vision.” Bill Vaccaro collaborative — - � � � � Bill Vaccaro is presently a graduate student in the Master of Arts in Humanities program, with a concentration in Media Study. 1 I ■ I I At first glance, Talking Pictures seems to be simply an excellent cinematic reference work on 100 films written by 38 prominent Hollywood screenwriters. Well, in one sense, it primarily is, and is important and interesting If this were not bad enough, he writes, an even greater heresy exists in the fact that auteur criticism is not so much concerned with visual style as with theme analysis.

It is not clear, for instance, how SA could be found guilty of failing to apply for a renewal of the Record Coop, when the Coop was never terminated in the first place. Legality Despite Doty’s charge that the Coop has failed to comply with Ketter’s 1971 regulations, both he and Gruber agree that the more compelling reason for shutting down the Coop is the legal one. Asked why the Coop was considered legal in 1971 and illegal in 1975, Doty responded that “the Coop’s legality from the outset was marginal, at best." He said that when it was first approved, “I thought it was a good thing for students to have experience with.” In addition to the educational benefits, Doty said that in 1971, the University assumed that the record Coop’s business would “stay small.” Currently, however, the Coop is selling an estimated $200,000 per year worth of records, according to Gruber. Gruber termed the closing of the Coop “regrettable,” adding that “no one really wanted it to happen.” He said he sees the merits of the Coop, but “success doomed its continuance." Doty also expressed regret in his memo over the fate of the Record Coop. “Cavages and Mr. Cavage have tried quite hard to avoid a formal complaint and I have tried quite hard to keep the formal complaint from arriving. It has, however, arrived and Mr. Cavage's position is both clear and valid,” he said. Cavage was phoned at his office numerous times last week, but he has neither answered nor returned The Spectrum's calls. f\ -WINK } ( 1TMINK niX L Finally soinO F' I JTO ANVdEF, ) t .

Student Association (SA) President Michele Smith first received the unexpected news via a memorandum dated October 24, 1975 from Edward Doty, Vice President for Finance and Management. Doty said in the memo that he was forced to shut down the Coop upon receipt of a regarding the formal protest Record Coop from Carl C. Cavage, President of Cavages. Doty said Cavage, who owns a chain of record stores in Buffalo, ‘‘Success Too early too tell Meanwhile, spokespersons for the Record Coop say the store will continue to do business as usual, keeping a low profile until “continued use of resources of the State of New York to conduct a ruinous competition with private enterprise” which he views as “contrary to the Charter of the University and a misuse of public funds.” Cavage also claimed “the entire operation of the Coop is of the auspices under Transcontinent Records” and it is “stocked with records not unlike a regular retail outlet and its advertising overseen in the same Doty. Marginal legality Doty went on to say that “the legality of the Record Coop has been marginal at best and its existence as a tax-subsidized paying tax to competitor businesses engaged in providing services which are not essential to the State University (albeit in varying degrees desirable) has on its being small and of quite limited competition.” been contigent relatively “Cavages and Mr Cavage have tried quite hard to avoid a formal complaint and 1 have tried quite hard to keep the formal complaint from arriving,” Doty wrote. “It has however arrived and Mr. Cavage’s position is both clear and valid,” he added. Doty sent a copy of the memorandum to James Gruber, Hall, Director of Norton the room that requesting currently occupied by the Record Coop in the basement of the student union building be made available for reassignment no later than November 7. Cavage’s of The nature clear, yet is not complaint although it is believed that he threatened a law suit against the University However, Doty was in Albany all this week and could not be reached for comment. He is expected to return today. Cavage, who was called three times at his office Wednesday, was also unavailable for comment. Both President Robert Ketter and Executive Vice President Albert Somit declined to discuss the matter because, as Somit said, it is “largely within Mr. Doty s province. Gruber termed that closing of the Record Coop “regrettable,” adding that “no one really wanted “secs it to happen.” He said he the merits ot the Record Coop feels it but in all clear conscience, has gotten out of hand and has become detrimental to concerns off campus.” its continuance,” Gruber said. including one in the University Plaza across from the Main Street the to objected campus, manner,” according to doomed Doty returns to Buffalo and meets with SA representatives and their lawyer, Richard Lippes. President SA Smith’s only remark concerning the possibility of averting suspension of Coop activities was that “the situation is being studies with our lawyer and we are working compromise.” “We are still on a trying to get all the background information,” she said. Permission to operate a Record Coop on this campus was granted by Ketter on September 13, 1971 after he decided that the request by SA complied with a SUNY Board of Trustees resolution, dated May 12, 1966, governing the use of state facilities. “Since the proposed coop is not a private enterprise, since it would operate in space generally and already assigned to student since the proceeds Student benefit, the Association, and since 1 assume the end result could be deemed to be cultural, 1 approve the request activities, would following the with conditions ...” Ketter wrote in a letter to SA. The three conditions were that records of gross receipts and net income be presented to Gruber on the a monthly basis; that expenditure of net proceeds be subject to the same regulations as mandatory student fees; and that renewal of the application be reviewed after approval expires on June 1, 1972. his October 24th In memorandum, Doty said neither condition 1 nor condition 3 was met, and he therefore doesn’t know whether condition 2 was met. The growth of a table According to Ann Orlando, former Coop presently volunteer works a who for (the Records Transcontinent Coop’s distributor), the original University Record Coop consisted of a small table in Norton Hall which did most of its business on a special order basis. She said the Coop began to 1972 and it was grow in eventually assigned a room in the basement of Norton Hall. Last year, the Coop moved from the basement to the first floor, into the old coat check room (presently occupied by the Bookstore Check Cashing Service and Post Office). When that happened, however, the University received a number of informal complaints from Cavage that the Coop was competing unfairly with the University Plaza store, she said. Doty then stepped in and directed the Coop to move back down to the basement. For a while, the Coop was not allowed to advertise in the campus papers, and when the privilege was reinstated, prices were not to be mentioned, Orlando explained. that stressed She Transcontinent is only the Coop s distributor and it not running the Coop, as Cavage seems to think. ‘The merchandise in the store is owned by the Coop,” she said, and “it is run strictly by students.” She added that records are only sold to students with University l.D. cards. Additionally, the record not manufacturers, Transcontinent, give the Coop a two percent rebate on advertising, she said. Transcontinent has accounts with record coops on nine or ten campuses within New York State, Orlando said. In addition, many of these coops are in state schools. She fears that if the Record Coop is closed here, it will set a precedent for closing other coops at SUNY schools. However, spokespersons for several record coops within SUNY say they have received no pressure from either private dealers or their administrations to shut down. Joanne Rosenthal, Assistant Manager of the Record Coop at Buffalo State College, siad that since the store opened last year, no complaints about its existence have been received from outsiders. the Buff State She said administration approved the Coop on the condition that it be a “non-profit organization funded Student [United USG by Government).” Records for the Coop, she noted, are ordered through Transcontinent. The record shop at the State University at Stony Brook has a contract with the University’s Student Association Faculty (FSA) to be able to sell records on campus, according to Zaheer Baber, President of SCOOP, Inc., which runs all the student businesses there. Barber pointed out, though, that the store is not FSA, to control by subject although the organization can see the books, and it is run entirely by students. The Stony Brook record store is also serviced by Transcontinent. �Grievance procedure Lengthy remedy available by Joe Chatterton Spectrum Staff Writer Until the Grievance Procedure was established, □oilman and Stein said, the student could do little more than complain to a faculty member or Department chairman. “Of the many potential grievances, most are resolved informally,” Dollman said. If the problem cannot be resolved in this manner, the student must then appeal to the Faculty or School Undergraduate Grievance Pool. A four member hearing committee, composed of two undergraduates and two faculty members from a department which is not involved in the complaint, will then be established.

Circulation average: 15,000 Page two . The Spectrum . Friday, 31 October 1975 by Pat Quinlivan City Editor Thousands of students may find themselves without essential mter-campus bus services if a labor management dispute in the Bluebird Bus Company cannot be settled by midnight tonight. It was not clear Wednesday if any progress had been made in negotiations between Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1203 and Bluebird Coach Lines, Inc. Roger Fneday, administrative assistant for Campus Services, said “everything is contingent on what the Bluebird drivers do.” Frieday said the University was making plans to provide alternatives if the drivers go-on strike. He indicated the initial phase of any strike would affect only weekend services, giving the University two days to arrange a substitute service. Several drivers told The Spectrum they were determined to strike if the contract is not renewed by the deadline. Despite rumors that the University will be forced to shut down Monday, administration officials gave no indication that such action was being considered. The inter-campus buses carry an average 12,000 students per day on more than 20 buses. Louis Magnano, president and • owner of Bluebird Coach Lines, said last week that he didn’t anticipate any big problem with the negotiations. “We always solve these things,” he said, noting that his company has been working with the union for 15 or 20 years with no serious difficulties. One problem that the company does lace is that most of the competition is non-union, he said. “We have to be competitive," Magnano emphasized. “The University doesn’t care whether we re union or non-union, they have to lake the best deal they can get.” Naturally, the drivers want more money to keep up with the rising cost of living, something Magnano says he realizes. A compromise satisfactory to both parties must be reached. As part of this process, Magnano observed, I he drivers “ask for more than they’re going we offer less than we'll end up giving Magnano remarked that the bus drivers win work the University routes do “a fine job �Elections pose troubl for College Council by Mike McGuire Contributing Editor Undergraduate Steven Schwartz was elected non-voting student member of the University’s College Council last month and has since attended meetings of that body. However, a quick survey of other State University (SUNY) units reveals that other schools have had more trouble in electing the one student member required by law. Under a bill shepherded through the state legislature by the Student Association of the State University (SASU), and signed by Governor Carey, each SUNY school elects one student to serve as a non-voting member of each local College Council. While the student cannot vote, he can bring matters up for a vote and he can attend closed-door meetings of the Council. College councils are local bodies at each SUNY unit which advise their presidents on all matters of importance to that college or university. Awaiting approval At Binghamton, although the undergraduate student government has approved proposed election rules, the graduate student government still must okay them before an election can be held. The Albany State student body has elected Student Association President Andy Bauman to double as its College Council representative, but the election is being challenged through the student judiciary. Bauman told The Spectrum, however, that he attended his first meeting as a council member (he attended past meetings as an observer). According to Bauman, he is treated with respect by the members, and is turned to for the student point of view. Bauman found the entire College Council a little short on real influence. “The Council doesn’t really make very many decisions. They’re just a smiling group of local businessmen.” At Plattsburgh, Student Association President Automatic member James Campbell was elected to the College Council seat after running unopposed. Passed on the same ballot as the Council seat was a provision making the SA President an automatic member of the College. This provision, however, does not take effect until next year. Campbell had not yet attended a monthly meeting of the Council, but sat in on several as an observer. Bob Kirkpatrick, President of SASU, automatically became a member of the SUNY Board of Trustees under the law. Like the student members of College Councils, he cannot vote but can attend closed-door meetings of the Board. Kirkpatrick told The Spectrum that he noticed a “tremendous” difference in the way he was received at meetings as a member and as an observer. As a member, he said, he can get to know the other members better as individuals, and thus can be more effective in dealing with them on issues. While he felt he was being taken seriously, Kirkpatrick said he has yet to be present at any very emotional discussions. When, during discussions of the current budget crunch, he suggested holding the line on dorm room rents to afford some relief to families also hit by the poor economy, the idea was received coldly. Kirkpatrick, who along with the late Ray Glass, worked for passage of the law that put students on the College Councils and the Board of Trustees, said the inclusion of students in these groups is an important step. He cautioned students who find themselves on such bodies to be careful, though, and when dealing with Council or Board members whose interests may conflict, to remember it is the students they must represent. FREE OIL CHANGE with tune-up & winterize MANTIONE'S Midtown Garage 882-8416 Students victims of thefts An estimated 74,100 volumes are lost within the University library system yearly, according to April 1975 report by John Vasi, Assistant to the Director of University Libraries. Stolen books account for most of the loss. Yorem Szekely, Undergraduate Library (UGL), head librarian, said the thefts occur when people remove materials from the libraries without checking them out. Szekely said one common type of theft is the "1 am not stealing, just borrowing ‘attitude’,” where students and faculty surreptitiously remove a book intending to return it but usually forgetting. Szekely said another kind is executed by people trying to “hurt us.” He emphasized that by stealing books, students are not “beating the establishment,” but are hurting fellow students who need a particular book and cannot find it. Collections hit Several collections in the UGL have been hit severely, including Black Studies, Modern American Authors, Psychology, and, worst of all. Mathematics. Between June 1974 and June 1975, 42 Math texts, or about 15 percent of the collection, have been lost or stolen. These thefts have made it necessary to divert funds for new books to replace stolen books in the UGL. The UGL’s budget was slashed by $16,000 this year. Out of this, only $2000 is set aside to replace stolen books. According to the most recent inventory, the Science and Engineering Library was missing 5000 volumes, about 3.5 percent of its total stock. The estimated replacement cost for these volumes is about $17 each. Margaret Schenk, Science and Engineering Librarian, said that not only are many volumes stolen, but many others have key pages torn #S.A. & THR€€ FOR ISR^L Wc offer you three incredible experiences The first: Kibbutz Ulpan Programs for high school grads to age 30.

Szekely feels cooperation from most students in revealing the contents of their bags has been helpful. Electronics detection systems like those used in the Law and Health Sciences Libraries may be installed by next semester in the UGL. The cost of these systems though great is substantially lower than paying checkers at the door and are more effective, according to Vasi. For this reason, all the new libraries at the Amherst Campus will be equipped with electronics devices. Many higher priced and popular reference books have been taken off the shelves and placed on reserve. In many cases, an instructor will put a list of up to 150 volumes on reserve to ensure their availability. This has led to a vast increase in the reserve workload, Vasi said. In the UGL, several dictionaries even had to be chained down. briefcase digs up: — , Scream on up out of your grave to the FILLMORE ROOM 8:30 — 2:00 in the morning. when all the freaks come out Wear a goulish costume — get in FREE!! & No costume costs ya $1.25 BEER 10c and for added spirits # SHERUT LA’AM 'wfr Costly replacement Vasi’s survey reports that the Health Science Library lost 6,515 volumes (5.1 percent of stock) at an average replacement cost of $16 a volume.

Page three �Ross says that death is only a separation of life from body by Nancy EUett Spectrum Staff Writer of the sudden effects The a child upon parents and siblings was the subject of an afternoon lecture by Elizabeth death of Kubler-Ross at the Student Center Friday. day’s Canisius program issue of illness and death among children, including a panel discussion and area clergy, dialogue between medical experts, and a cancer A full devoted was to the general society representative, Ross, a renowned psychiatrist, is the author of On Death and Dying and Questions on Death and Dying the unfortunate situation that exists after a patient has died, Ross explained that relatives are informed of the death in the waiting room, sometimes administered sedatives, and there ends the hospital’s responsibility to the family. In some cases, Ross found, even after several years, some parents refused to believe their child was really gone. Years later, these disbelieving parents still turned down the child’s blanket in preparation for the to Pointing child’s return. Interviews Ross her and colleagues many interviewed people experiencing total denial. Her findings indicated that those who had been informed of the death by a non-physician sometimes believed that no physician had been involved to authenticate the fatality. Relatives do not accept this information as valid even when being informed by a nurse. Another suggestion to the which professionals, medical enable parents to cope with and accept their loss, involves the actual handling of the corpse. Even in cases of mutilation due to an accident, the body should be made to look as normal as possible for the bereaved parent. This, Ross added, is also true of a mother who gives birth to an unborn child. “She must see, hold, and love the child, if only for a little while” before she will be able to give it up, Ross urged. advised that funeral Ross directors be more responsive to the family’s psychological needs. Parents should be allowed to carry the child to the parlor, comb its hair and prepare the body for burial, she said God’s position in the matter. “What’s the matter with you? God can take it!” Ross quipped, bringing cheers and laughter from the audience. “I always find it presumptuous to make excuses for God,” she added. Patients should be allowed to say what including angry they feel, responses of “why me?” or “why my child?” Ross cited empirical evidence and numerous case histories to her theories. These support included passages of poetry from a mother who was about to lose a son to lukemia. These lines, which had been written as her son progressed, illness Jeffrey’s elucidated certain of Ross’ major points. “Learning to deal with death,” she explained, “requires a new language of symbolism.” • Role of clergy also Ross addressed the of the clergy. A terrible blow can be softened by importance the compassion and optimism When ya gotta go . The poor psychological state of Jeffrey’s mother seemed to have strong effects on Jeffrey. She was an aetheist and imagined nothing but a black void after death. Jeffrey’s feelings reflected this in .. of death as a war offered by members of the clergy. his portrayal dying people. his mother replaced her concept with one of death as a state of tranquil peace. Twenty four hours later, reported Ross, Jeffrey’s symbolic representation of death was transformed into a bird of peace. Ross’ warm and penetrating with the audience dialogue illustrated her talent as a psychiatrist. She described one 1 who fell under case of a you - Their greatest assistance typically comes when the patient, who is aware of his imminent death, and through denial passes depression, two stages which Ross postulates are common to all However, when the sentiment often anger, open becomes directed at God or whomever they hold ultimately responsible, the take the clergy frequently defensive and attempt to bolster tank or bomb. Through care after she had been deserted by medical specialists who diagnosed her illness as terminal. The girl was not so much upset by her fatal disease, as by the knowledge that she could never return to school. Her greatest wish was to become a teacher. Her anger at God for this deprivation was reprimanded by the local priest who told her that in order to go to heaven” she must “love God more than anyone else in the world.” Ross quickly resolved the child’s psychological crisis. her therapy ‘ . ya gotta go “To whom does the teacher toughest very her give assignments?” asked Ross of the girl. “To her favorite and best students,” was the logical answer. “Well then,” said Ross, “God too the toughest given you has assignment of all.” The child’s anxiety was diminished by the inference that she was therefore among God’s most beloved. This . . example of Ross’ ability to gently resolve such a difficulty served to illustrate the necessity to “learn the child’s own language,” and handle such difficulties in a meaningful context. Ross expressed dissatisfaction with the misuse of the five stages she put forth as necessary before a complete achieves patient acceptance of death. Most anger, for example, is justified anger, and may not represent the successful completion of that step toward acceptance. Reactive anger caused by poor hospital food or a gruff doctor must be differentiated from the personal anger which precedes final acceptance and coping with the crisis, she said. The most overpowering fear of the dying child, she explained, is that of being alone. “Ring the bells loud when 1 go,” Jeffrey instructed his mother after the death of his hospital roommate Beth Ann. “Sound the ambulance siren long and loud so Beth Ann will know I’m coming.” Speculation Ross’ words echoes in the auditorium when her lecture they Doubtless ended. reverberated in the minds of her , audience. Life after death is a matter of great speculation, and at a time empiricism when scientific pervades, the suggestion that life goes on after death will no doubt come under fire. Nevertheless, after several years of investigating cases from Australia to California with patients from diverse ages and cultural backgrounds, Ross confidently states, “We not only there is life after death, but we are absolutely sure of it.” Interviews with patients who have returned to life after three to 12.5 hour encounters with medically verified “death” testify to this statement. In all studied cases, the findings were the same. Says Ross, “They see themselves floating above their own physical body, observe the resuscitation team,” and in spite of their own unconsciousness, can give very accurate detail of what transpired while their bodies showed no vital signs of life upon revival. The experience is reported to “beautiful, peaceful and be creating a sense of wholeness.” Paraplegics have functional legs and injured people are healed believe that Anxiety and fear are absent. There is usually a deceased friend or relative reportedly awaiting their arrival. These findings were held back temporarily, reported Ross, “for fear of a wave of suicides.” Now she is prepared to publicly state that “death is only a separation of life from the body.” New services for veterans offered UB Office of Veteran (VA) is offering new services for the 3000 veterans enrolled here.

"This is the first time the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) and Student Association (SA) have gotten together in a time of crisis,” said IRC President David Brownstein at Wednesday’s Student Senate meeting in the Fillmore Room. The crisis to which he was referring was the imminent default of New York City, which, it is feared, will lead to drastic cuts for the State University of New York (SUNY), The meeting became the kickoff for an SA letter writing campaign to Senators and Congressmen in the hopes of mustering political support to save SUNY. Letter writing tables and booths will be set up in Norton, Diefendorf and at both the Amherst and Ridge Lea Campuses as part of a statewide action leading up to a mass one day lobby in Washington, D.C., on November 19. SA President Michele Smith said that should New York State default, “SUNY goes first. Our first priority should be to save our own educational system.” She also said any SUNY cutbacks would affect Western New York because SUNY is the largest employer in the area, and any drastic budget cut will lead to massive Save SUNY layoffs and firings. Smith said she met with President Robert Ketter and called on him to “form a University-wide Steering Committee” comprised of faculty, staff, administrators and students. “We’re not running out to save New York City Smith noted. “We’re fighting to save SUNY.” Brownstein told the Senate that as soon as the seventy of the financial situation became known, he called an emergency meeting of the IRC Executive Committee. Within thirty minutes “calls were being made, signs printed, and flyers distributed” to inform students of a rally in Porter Cafeteria in the Elhcott Complex Wednesday evening, he said. Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg was scheduled to speak becuase, “If cuts have to be made, the Colleges will be one of the first things to go,” according to Brownstein. He said car pools to a mass meeting in Geneseo Thursday would be organized at the Porter rally Brownstein feels a good showing in Geneseo will impress SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer and possibly cause greater action. �Male enrollment in WSC would hinder discussions new to the questions considered . . . this integration (of personal experience and oppression) is impeded in coed classes, and thus the intended intellectual development is hindered.” Andrea agreed. “Having men in the class,” she continued, “1 think, would hinder the discussion because they don’t have the personal experience to go on.

Women in These courses are: 213 and 214; Society, Contemporary Women in Photography; Studio Art; and Women’s Automotives. In a special interview with The either Spectrum several women who taken these courses or taught them stated their reasons for supporting the classes and the advantages they feel are gained from them.

Joyce, another student in Women in Contemporary Society, said if men were present in the class, “You’d never get to the material, or the women would be silenced.” Domination Cheryl cited her history class, which has only one male student and is taught by a man. “We were discussing sexism in education, and these two men totally dominated the conversation! Even though the rest of the class were women, and we were discussing sexism,” she said. Another lesson learned by the experience of having men in classes like Women in Contemporary Society, according to Andrea, is that men get defensive and begin to take women s descriptions of their oppression personally.

We want these people, both the Women’s Studies College and the administration, to stop confronting each other in an adversary manner and start talking things out like human beings.” WSC representatives charged that the University administration is using Title IX against women, rather than for them, as it was intended. Grace Blumberg, an Assistant Professor of Law who has been working closely with WSC on the Title IX issue, noted that although “acceptance of the College’s assertion that these courses do indeed contain a does not strong ‘affirmative action’ component solve the legal issues, legislative history shows that it was passed to eliminate educational discrimination ” In a memo outlining her legal opinion regarding the exclusion of male students from the five WSC courses in question, she cited several legal cases which led her to conclude that “remedial or affirmative programs are an exception to the otherwise broad ban against discrimination on the basis of sex” stipulated in Title IX Noting the case of Kahn r Shevm, she said, “in the area of sex discrimination, the Court will require no more than a ‘minimal rationality’ showing in efforts aimed at remedying past order to sustain inequities.” No legal liabilities WSC representatives met with members of the Tuesday in a final attempt to reach an agreement regarding the issue of courses restricted to women.

Both administrators remained immutable on the deadline, WSC representatives said. The only “substantive” issue brought up at the meeting, they said, was the removal of the word “unlawful” from the anti-discrimination clause in the College’s charter. The administration demanded that this word be deleted, but told WSC representatives that in doing so they would be committing themselves to integrating their classes as well.

Statistics have estimated that one out of every ten girls in the US. becomes an unwed mother before the age of eighteen. Pregnancy is the main cause of dropping out among American secondary schoolgirls. School systems are often so with their attitudes towards pregnancy that they tend to overlook the individual. Their reactions to pregnancy are at best neglectful, but often hostile and preoccupied punitive. the They fail to consider detriments their actions may have on the young mother as well as the broader ramifications they may have on the newborn child. Most states leave treatment and education of pregnant girls up to the local school system and to individual schools. Some states have liberal education laws and codes, but many bar the pregnant school girl, brand her as a detriment to the welfare of the other students, and label her as a behavior problem. Many go as far as classifying her as mentally or physically handicapped. birth. Some given earnestly discourage schools unwed mothers from returning to school, imposing unreasonable recovery periods between time of her delivery and time of her return. Others go as far as prohibiting the father of the child from attending the school. A further illustration of the obstacles a young mother must hurdle in today’s society can be cited in the available counseling services. The pregnant teenager often avoids school guidance counselors and school nurses for fear of being forced to leave. Other available counseling services are geared more towards those girls who want to give up their babies for adoption. Thus, teenage mothers who decide to keep their babies are often left without any available source of help. No help Welfare systems, which dispense aid only if a girl drops out or takes a low paying job, mothers no choice about returning to school. And many social workers regard this as a proper punishment for the “bad” girl. often leave unwed Outcast Often the pregnant schoolgirl is reclassified as an adult, thus making her “too mature” to attend school with her peers and to young for adult classes. Those G labelled handicapped, may receive home turoting, mostly in the form of a two hour per week session. Probably the saddest part of systems’ attitude the school occurs after the young mother has Allotments are also given to the girl’s parents and not to the o^ young mother for the care of the child. To make matters worse, most states do not have free or low cost day care facilities for girls who are forced to go to work. Due to parental pressures and teenage consent requirements, mothers have little or no choice in what happens to them or their mother’s baby. young The feelings, or for that matter the young father’s, are rarely taken into consideration. Parents who force early on their children marriages frequently fail to realize the severe impediments they put in the young couple’s way. More often than not, the marriages do not last.

Friday, 31 October 1975 �Instead of nuclear power Solar energy the most viable option to the energy crunch by Rob Cohen Spectrum Staff Writer The energy crunch, coupled with the recent controversy surrounding the safety of nuclear power plants, has kindled serious consideration of unconventional energy sources. Of these, solar energy, in the opinion of many qualified observers, is the most viable option. Although the technology for efficiently harnessing energy from the sun has been at hand for a its years, of number with cost-competitiveness conventional modes of power production must be proven before it can be implemented on a large-scale. Recent years have witnessed a steady erosion of these economic barriers, as a result of rapid improvements in solar technology on one hand, and skyrocketing fossil fuel prices on the other. If all the sunlight reaching the earth were to be converted to electricity, it would be worth approximately $560 billion. Only a few hundreths of one percent of this total is actually utilized, mainly in the production of food.

Obviously a solar heating unit cannot be relied upon as a continuous heat source as of in itself. It must be augmented by a conventional back-up system which must operate at night and during extended periods of cloudiness. Despite these inherent drawbacks, solar heating is a low-cost, practical mode for conventional complementing heating units in private houses and small buildings. Sunlight yields energy both directly and indirectly. The direct mode consists of collecting sunlight on solar panels and converting it into electricity via photovoltaic silicon cells. “Direct conversion” has proved successful in providing the energy needs of orbital spacecraft. Its terrestial further awaits application improvements in efficiency and substantial cost reductions. Recently a highly ambitious proposal has been advanced, which envisions the placement in synchronous orbit of a series of satellites, carrying huge solar panels having areas of up to 32 square kilometers. These satelites would collect solar energy and transmit it back, in the form of micro-waves to receiving stations on earth. It is estimated that each satelite could produce 15,000 megawatts of power, enough to meet the anticipated energy requirements of New York City in the year 2000. **�������������* ���������� * * • • course. • dancing, • • Star Standard deviat variance Permutations and random numbers % and % change Fixed or floating decimal Three separate addressable memories 20 conversions and their inverses Linear regression, mean, & 3^" . * * * Hall. yL, 'T * • are scheduled Israeli folk throughout the week.

We expect the charter will be accepted by Dr. Fisk and Dr. Somit at the Oct. 28th meeting, wherein it was stated that the removal of the word unlawful would bring the charter into compliance with University policy. We restate our position that WSC does not discriminate; that the college, is itself, a program with an affirmative action thrust and that the selective-use of all women’s classes is an integral of that program.

Programs and services that students and faculty have fought long and hard to establish and that the administration approved in the first place have no refuge from the swing of the axe. These are certainly not the champions of progressive education, these men who, as one person wrote in a recent Guest Opinion, see education as an "imaginary black box" through which people are processed, not affected If students here are affected by anything at all, they should be outraged at the arrogance with which their I address my letter to the proposed Commission to Investigate Security (Bill S-001). 1 am pleased that the Student Senate has recognized the need to establish a Student Association unit designed to protect the rights of students. It is, however, the design of the Commission which makes me question the credibility of any pursuant investigation. Between October 17, when it was announced, and October 24. when SA claimed to be seeking representatives, a member of Campus Security has been added to the Commission. From its inception, it has included a member of the office of Student Affairs. Isn’t this like asking Patrick Gray and the CIA to help investigate the FBl?As paid employees of their respected units, they must do anything to protect the interests of those units. With all due respect to the position of both Security and Student Affairs, I do not see it feasible that they should have a place on the Commission. They will, in fact, play an important role in a follow up committee to “define some solutions” but not until the proposed Commission has thoroughly investiagted, defined and presented to the Student Body the problem with past Campus Security modes of operation. Another flaw in the design is that after two visits to SA to volunteer my services and after one week’s time, neither myself nor any other student who has been investigated, arrested and/or processed by Campus Security in the past have received an invitation to participate in the Commission. Don’t we have a more appropriate role on such a than Campus Security?Don’t we carry a deeper commitment to a Commission which may prevent future University students from being subjected to some of the outrageous tactics Campus Security has used in the past? It is my conviction that if the Commission proceeds as proposed it will merely be another facade created by the administration to pacify student dissatisfaction. Commission Joseph Becker administrators are treating them. They spout rhetoric about academic freedom, but in one easy blow, they will wipe out the whole Women's Studies College today if they don't feel Stating our equality their orders have been satisfied.

Shallat's basic idea is sound enough; what could be safer than a parody of Jungle-Jim type serials and their cereal-box heroesTCombine that with a wide swipe at the Gothic Mystery, complete with secret passages, omniscient butlers and an aristocratic homicide or two, and you have a fairly solid base to develop upon. Develop, yes; dump on, no. The play has far, far too many ideas that go nowhere, irrelevant lines, bad jokes and unintelligible songs that give the impression of being better off that way. Every word that Shallat ever wrote for the play which runs for just under three hours seems to be present; a great deal of cutting would be in order. (Director Chambers has said that there were "drastic changes" since the October 23 performance that I saw; hopefully, a missing half hour or so was among them.) - — — Shredded wring If a good idea turns bad through overuse, at least it's of value before diminishing return sets in. Although most of Shallat's ideas are eventually wrung lifeless, they do work well for a while; he has a jaundiced enough eye, and a crazy enough perspective to come up with some gleeful flashes of mania. More specifically valuable is his clear knowledge, even in this foggy setting, of the cliches he's shredding. Plot?You fool. Don't ask about plot. Here's all you need, the heir of the Teaser family of 20's England was kept an infant for 21 years by a voodoo curse.

The Ethnic Stereotype Department is capably held down by Ron Sandberg's Scotsman, and one Dr. LeBlanc (Steven Saporta), something of a French Chico Marx. The best single moment is probably Gumbo's attempt to resurrect three warriors to snuff the Teasers; what he crotchety gets instead is a song-and-dance team named Bad, Worse and Rotten, (As the last-named, Dennis Hoerter is especially fine, borrowing jointly from Dennis Day's open-faced wholesomeness and Bert Lahr's Cowardly Lion.) Sadly, the only performance that really doesn't work is that of Kathy Baldwin, as Ronnie Bwana herself. In trying to capture the let's-go-gang virtues of the comic book hero stereotype, she gives the kind of cheerful, energetic, but amateurish performance one usually finds in high school musicals. Vanessa James continues to amaze with her usage of the Courtyard Theater space. Here she divided the theater into two smaller, separate "mini-theatres," one for each act. The Act One stage was a surprisingly well-detailed recreation of an archetypal British drawing room. Her real triumph, though, was her Act Two jungle, more Tropicana than Tropics, with the Fountain of Youth and Age, illuminated by neon signs, dominating the dayglo landscape.

Prodigal Sun �RetumtoForeverupstageMahavishnu atCentury Upon entering the Century Theater last Saturday night, I was surprised to see that Return to Forever got top billing over the Mahavishnu Orchestra. Upon leaving it I was not surprised any longer. The questionably entitled field of jazz-rock got a big shot in the arm almost four years ago (at least in Northeast college towns) when John McLaughlin began touring with the original Mahavishnu Orchestra (Cobham, Hammer, Laird, Goodman), a conglomeration which visited Buffalo four or five times. Long-time fans can attest to the originality, determination and technical brilliance of McLaughlin's early band and compositions. The good die young As success would have it, the Orchestra has disbanded and regrouped twice since then, and many other artists have since recognized the influence of (some would say copied) the Mahavishnu. Loud, fast riffs with tinges of Eastern, classical and jazz origins began to appear in the recordings and performances of such diverse talents as Larry Coryell, King Crimson, Jeff Beck and Todd Rundgren's Utopia. Distorted guitars and synthesizers became commonplace in jazz groups, while electric violins, double-necked guitars and decent rhythm sections began to surface in the sea of rock groups. Consequently, there is a lot of music going around these days thqt sounds alike, which mded by thr ibl ' toward overwhelming funkiness and overblown electronics. John "Machine-gun" McLaughlin seems to have gone over the latter of these two deep concurrent trends ends. Dressed not in Krishna whites, but Hugh Hefnerish hooded sweater and flaired armed not with a massive slacks, custom-built guitar, but two more flashy Gibsons, he came on looking quite at ease. immediately into almost Crashing "Meetings of the Spirit," McLaughlin neglected to tune his guitar properly first and was hindered greatly for most of the piece. The new Orchestra is down to four pieces, and its overall texture is not even close to that of either of its previous incarnations. Jean luc Ponty is gone, but bassist Ralph Armstrong and drummer Michael Walden remain from the last, larger group. A new keyboard player (whose name I've forgotten already) showed off the usual electronic keyboard tricks, but was surpassed in ability by the rhythm section Though still technically to compositions. New strings Annoyance to show as began McLaughlin finished the next two numbers (he never really got the guitar tuned) and he seemed to have trouble concentrating. After the second or third piece, John (with the help of an equipment man) took five minutes plugging in and tuning his new monstrosity guitar synthesizer, a responsible for even more problems. Having trouble getting anything but noise out of his new instrument (and banks of footswitches), McLaughlin began to resemble a weary Napoleon Solo whose short-wave radio had broken. Despite The big time Although they were in Buffalo before. Return Forever had never headlined to as large as the Century anywhere (something which McLaughlin had done many times here). Last year in the Fillmore Room, Corea exhibited a fine mind for piano, although he tended to drift into excessive, noisy use of the synthesizer. The of the group made the show almost excellent, although the pieces and themes seemed to be repetitious. Saturday night's concert, on the other hand, was a different story. Although they rest frequent adjustments by his equipment man and smiles of encourage from his band, McLaughlin did a good job of ind superior other electric guitarists, McLaughlin sounded pretty weak this time around.

Editor's Note: Due Clarke, Journey to Love (Nemperor Records) Grade: 95, Rating: Great. Chick Stanley Corea's Return to Forever forerunners in today's jazz-rock race, have produced a great spinoff album, with their all-star bassist Stanley Clarke joining an almost all-star cast for almost 40 great minutes. Best cut is "Song to John" (Parts I and II) on which John McLaughlin, Chick Corea and Clarke form an acoustic trio for a tribute to Coltrane.

Another for the hot disco circuit, as Grade: 60, Rating: sure Prodigal Sun performed almost identical material to last year's appearance, RTF seem to have spent the intervening time refining and building upon their stage show. Many new themes and breaks, duets and lightning-fast riff tradeoffs have been worked into the pieces, giving them a newly polished feel. Corea outdid himself this time, improvising freely yet staying away from some of the obnoxious electronics which stuck out last time. In conjunction with guitarist Al Dimeola, Chick has worked out many nice harmonic lines in which the synthesizer mimics the guitar. Dimeola, who I formerly dismissed as a McLaughlin imitator himself, has never sounded better. Avoiding the gimmicks may have paid off, for Al seemed to play rings around McLaughlin this night, something he could never have done a year ago. Lenny White, master of percussion, amazed the crowd again, particularly when trading lines with the rest of the band during "Vulcan World." "The Romantic piece, Warrior," an acoustic/electric showcased Corea's piano and Stanley Clarke's stand-up bass. There is a lot more I could say, especially about Stanley Clarke, but time is money, so I'll say once more that RTF was better than J.M. and the M.O., and leave you to the mercy of this week's ghost columnist. —John Duncan Herbie rides again with the longest list of keyboard instruments ever printed on an album cover. Hancock is a smart breadhunter and knows that if he writes five more versions of “Chameleon," the record will sell. Despite the fact that he has Eastern and religion been into synthesizers as long as everybody else on today's jazz-rock scene, Herbie seems to be unable to reach the plateau on which less-worldly many his so of contemporaries have been riding. Best cut on the album is undoubtedly "Bubbles" (side 2, song 1), a slow experiment in textures, featuring some guest soloists. Famous names on the album include Bennie Maupin (of course), Wayne Shorter, Stevie Wonder, Jim Horn, Wah Wah Watson, and "Maestro Universal Synthesizer System, Maestro Sample and Hold Unit, without whom the production of this record would not have been possible," I wonder how much money he gets for putting all that stuff down on his album cover.

Essentially, no aspect of health care delivery escapes the bright light of his scrutiny. Even if you never never-ending series of "How to" books. The object read this book, you must at least for your own the principles of this particular book is to provide the health health and welfare be familiar with the Levin describes. judge the basic he needs to facts consumer with Initially in selecting a physician. Levin says, quality of health. One wishes that Dr. Levin, a graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Medical whenever possible choose a doctor who (1) holds at least one appointment to a medical school affiliated hospital, (2) is Board-certified or Board eligible in Family Practice, Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, etc., (3) works with other doctors, so his performance is checked by these physicians, (4) even with all his training makes an effort to keep his knowledge current by teaching medical students and reading. From personal experience, I know that such a breed of physician does exist. Whether or not the doctor makes house calls should not be a critical concern in choosing a physician, Levin says, because there is not much at all a doctor can do to diagnose or even treat a pressing illness in the patient's home, without the necessary non portable advanced equipment found only in hospitals or clinics. Nor should the social status of the doctor, of his patients, the size of the doctor's practice ("It may be very large because he never succeeds in solving his patients' problems'"), Arthur Levin, M.D., Talk Back to Your Doctor: How to Demand (and Recognize) High Quality Health Care, Doubleday (harcover $7.95) At first glance this is another in a seemingly Texas Instruments electronic calculator to SR-51A • • • Performs logarithms, trigonometries, hyperbolics. powers, roots reciprocals, factorials, linear regression mean variance and standard deviation Features an algebraic keyboard with dual function keys that the power ol the SR-51 without increasing its size Three user accessible memories pi increase product operation: • • • Preprogrammed to Rant generator i number provide 20 often used automa User selected fixed or floating decima 3 significai ites and displays e ts arn argeas *9 999999999 answi -lalior • wer is greater Features bright 14-characle lha iplay - 10-digil mantissa wi digit exponent w 'erflow • Lightweight lully lerflow € Table AC operation • • Ful AC A nor the time he makes you wait until he sees you, sway you from exercising your informed choice. Two good points the author makes: we all should have a qualified, primary care physician who will act as our gatekeeper into the health system, and the time to start looking for such a primary care physician is when we are well and not when we are sick. (An emergency especially is not the time to hold tryouts for a good physician; and if in an emergency, Levin correctly recommends, your regular doctor is unavailable, you should go to the emergency room of a large, high-grade hospital that i.e., a trains residents and medical students hospital that is affiliated with a medical school. Indeed, Levin offers proof that the care provided by these hardworking, skilled residents, at such hospitals, is definitely better than that rendered School, had chosen a more catchy, or at least a less most solo non-specialists, and is only exceeded in by cumbersome title, because overall, this book merits quality by the care rendered by the best university Hig Health Care — ARTHUR LEVIN, M.D. an excellent rating. First, Levin’s writing style is lucid and succeeds in making you believe he is in the same room talking with you, rather than talking down at you. Second, Levin packs a wealth of useful information that can prove to be downright practical to a college-educated health consumer, as a primary resource on how and where .and specifically from whom to get quality health care. In painstaking detail, he illuminates the — from how up till now shadowy world of medicine Page twelve . The Spectrum . — specialists. Additionally, Levin considers the pitfalls of obtaining good diagnosis. Too often physicians commit errors in diagnosis and errors in the selection of diagnostic tests. Thus in order to avoid further possibility of error in diagnosis or treatment by the same or another physician later on, Levin stresses you insist that your doctor tell you his diagnosis in medical terms (e g., not "walking pneumonia" but Friday, 31 October 1975 continued on page 14 MANY MODELS AVAILABLE AT YOUR UNIVERSITY BOOKSTORE ON CAMPUS NORTON Prodigal Sun �Our Weekly Reader $15, paper $5.95) Twenty years ago William Gaddis' first novel. The Recognitions, appeared. It never even approached the best seller list but was championed by a small following with the result that three paperback editions have appeared at sporadic intervals over the last two decades the most recent was last summer in anticipation of this, Gaddis' second novel. Now it is out. JR, by any account, breaks new stylistic ground, just as its predecessor did. Essentially it is 726 pages of dialogue: a high speed race through corporate finance and the Stock Exchange with no chapter breaks. And as in his earlier novel, Gaddis is concerned with the despiritualization of modern man by business and the Puritan work ethic. Edward Bast, a fledgling composer who lives with his two senile aunts and teaches in a Long Island elementary school, is caught maelstrom of stock in the manipulations and corporate pyramiding through his acceptance of a loan from a sixth grade student, J R Vansant. J R asks Bast to help him in return by meeting with a stockbroker and performing ceremonial functions for him. J R believes that he is helping Bast by providing him with an income (as well as stock options and tax depreciation plans) so he can "do so he can finish his opera his thing," as a hippie named Alexander tells Jack Gibbs, a writer also caught up in the game of making money. To J R it is a game. And the only way to play the game is to "play to win," he is told by Mister Moncrieff while in Diamond — — Cable's executive washroom. (J R's Social Studies class has bought a share of Diamond Cable and has taken a field trip to learn about the American way.) J R's operating philosophy revolves around two concepts; 1) hedge yourself against taxes and 2) buy on credit and sell for cash. He "knows" only what he has been told in class and what he picks up from The New York Times ; so, later when he decides to invest in pork belly futures, he pleads with his social studies teacher. On Monday A Joubert, to include commodity futures in the course. (She tells him that there isn't time to get to that complicated Mrs. William Gaddis, JR, Alfred A. Knopf (cloth — topic.) By this time, though, it hardly matters what he knows. His corporation has expanded to include a public relations the department, lawyers and brokers lawyers are to make sure that everything follows the letter of the law. J R makes the — decisions and hands them down over pay telephones (from school or from the candy store), covering the mouthpiece with a handkerchief to sound older. As his corporate structure swells, one begins seeing images of Howard Hughes; none of the employees have ever seen J R; they get scrawled, nearly indecipherable him written on Big Chief tablet old and decrepit on the he sounds paper: notes from phone; etc. Yet, J R manifests the essential quality of the educational system he has been reared in. The school administrators are only interested in bettering their financial by situations through the institution - getting grants to purchase their companies' and the principal, Mr. equipment Whiteback, runs his bank from his office at school, (he even has an outside line - installed so he won’t have his business calls delayed.) By the end of the book, in the course of some four months, J R Corp. has taken on most of the school’s faculty as its own and officers unknown to J R or Bast — — has fallen into receivership for recapitalization. Trying to escape J R and his game by paying back the original loan. Bast takes out a loan using his stock in J R Corp. as collateral. When the bank sells the stock to collect on the loan, J R stock plummets. At the end, Diamond Cable, which was the object of the "class" action suit that set J R in motion, is trying to buy control of the Corp.; Bast goes off to compose music irrespective of his possible financial situation; and J R is left talking on the still playing phone with nobody listening to win. — Gaddis' choice of a sixth grader as the wheeler-dealer mastermind of a corporate empire is not frivolous. As in The Recognitions, Gaddis is extremely troubled by the deconstruction of language and the ambiguity which has been injected into it by advertising and legalese. The reduction of meaning to "language games" leaves J R, by his very naivety, in an advantageous position to perform his acrobatics. we The American way, i.e., business are a "commercial republic," wrote Alexander Hamilton in the Federalist is a game, however, which creates Papers its own rules. Language, the language of the stock market, is the manifestation of these rules; so, in playing the game, J R simply imitates what has already been done — - copying corporate structurings, copying letter forms, etcetera, etcetera. (This is the forgery motif, which formed one of the central images of The Recognitions .) For J R there is nothing beneath this surface. There is no beauty in nature; there is no beauty in music. He can neither "see" nor "hear." The educational system has programmed him to learn and repeat, not to think. Teachers who stray from the prescribed forms (Gaddis is unable to avoid punning on this by having the characters — speak of "proscribed" forms) are ejected from the system. Gaddis himself is unable stay to clear of the completely strained encyclopedic, heavy handed, narration which plagued his earlier work and which was a result of the contextual theory of meaning. It is to Gaddis' credit, I suppose, that he avoided narration as much as he did (there are two passages of extended, i.e., half to one page narration), since where it breaks out one becomes only too well aware of the author's own Unfortunately, inability to connect language to "reality But even more distracting is Gaddis' self-indulgence in attacking his own critics. Under the guise of Thomas Eigen (Tom Gaddis tells us about the of his earlier work: "Small audience! . . . do you think I would have worked on it for seven years just for, do you know what my last royalty check reception was . . .? Fifty-three dollars and fifty-two cents, the publisher dropped it cold the day it came out he must think I wrote it I get for a very small audience too letters from college kids who have it assigned in their courses, they must be passing one copy around. If he'd let me ... have the right back do you think I d be sitting here now? Later Gaddis uses the reviews of The Recognitions as blurbs for the book J R Corp. is publishing. And these barbs do nothing but force this book within the confines of the small group of appreciative readers, who find their own prejudices reinforced by Gaddis' “plight." Vet, despite this, William Gaddis has certainly gone beyond his first novel with JR. The action of the book is carried, likp everything else, by the dialogue. The discourse of the characters in JR is, for the most part, itself a radical departure from the dialogue which prevailed in the earlier novel. By dealing with persons involved with, rather than contemplating, life, Gaddis is able to utilize their speech as indicative of their actions. Whereas in The Recognitions the discourse revolved around vacuous and terms, in JR one is metaphysical confronted with a plethora of everyday speech. It is through this speech that the characters come to life. The characters are not stretched between the reality of their actions and the narrator's conception of them, as was the case for several characters in Gaddis' earlier book, and though characters from the earlier work reappear in this novel (Wyatt-Bast, Esther-Marian, Brown-Katz, Esme-Rhoda) and though, once again, several characters are manifestations of Gaddis and his problems (Bast, Eigen, Gibbs, Gall, Schramm), there is very little tendency within the book itself for them become caricatures. The continual flow of discourse forces a bodily specificity upon the characters, while the absence of narratorial intrusion relieves us of Gaddis' tendency to to philosophize within his fictions. Yet, JR is a very funny book. In this respect, too, it seems less strained and more "honest." JR is, finally, just a more finely crafted work of literature than The Recognitions, and despite the fact that this novel will not yield itself up to those who refuse to give it a leisurely reading and therefore miss the innuendoes of the speakers, Gaddis’ achievement in JR will not be discussed in terms of the author's erudition in arcane subjects or his —C.

That is, the history is not complete unless your doctor has asked you questions about each of your organ systems. For a thorough physical examination, your doctor must examine all the parts of your body from head to toe, "regardless of the complaint that made you visit (the physician] in the first place." As a bonus, Levin details what a patient history is, the types of questions the physician should ask, and what constitutes good general physical pneumococcal examination. Levin even outlines the types of diagnostic tests available, the risks involved, what they specifically test for and when they are generally called for. In the area of good treatment, Levin rightfully insists that your doctor be able to tell you why the drug he has chosen is the best choice for your illness. Happily, with outstanding perception Levin notes that penicillin and other antibiotics are indicated only for bacterial infections and have no use whatsoever in the treatment of viral infections. Levin also observes with great candor that doctors should mostly prescribe drugs by their generic, not their —continued from page SWAP N’SHOP Now open 2 locations for ... is, and what complete pediatric physical constitutes well-baby and well-child care. This book is a start for the health consumer on h«w to get quality health care, and in the process demystify the practice of medicine. However, it is no substitute for years of medical school and post-graduate training, nor does this book make you a bona fide legal health advocate. The book contains a minor debatable points or errors (such as 'The diaphragm is nearly as effective as the pill," found on p. 186. The correct interpretation is that diaphrams are nearly as effective as the pill in a well-motivated educated group of women, but are not nearly as effective in a group of poorly motivated uneducated group of women.). I must comment that Levin's political views are controversial and color his analysis of what constitutes (and how to get) quality health care. Personally, I agree that, politically, health consumers can be a most powerful force for bettering the quality of health care. But I go one step further, and argue that the consumer's role is not only in challenging and questioning his doctors. That role of health consumer, in fact, begins first in the home. That is to say. Levin wants to see peoples' health improved, but he sees improving health by improving the effectiveness and efficiency of the health care system (through consumer prompting). I differ in that I see that "the greatest current potential for improving the health of the American people is to be found in what they do and don't do to and for themselves," i.e., diet, exercise and hygiene. In this view, the health crisis today is a crisis of life style. Furthermore, the health care deliver system can do little to modify these habits, without changes in the practices of the advertising, tobacco, alcoholic products, pharmaceutical, food products and automobile industries. To improve the publics' health, we must also confront these economically and politically powerful giants.

In this latter instance there is the common error of a misdiagnosis of emotional illness from a true organic illness or, if emotional illness is actually present, then a second opinion may be critical in order for the patient to become aware that he truly needs psychiatric help. Levin thoughtfully suggests places to go for a second opinion, in all instances making sure that the second that we return to criticizing an easier and more doctor is not one recommended by the first. large target: the health care system. evaluation accessible of Levin provides a frank In conclusion, I'm not suggesting that Levin's medical school affiliated hospitals.

When dealt with properly, however, it is certainly an important, thought provoking runs great issue.

"I'm sorry I dissolve, ever made you disappear!" she commands him. But he stubbornly refuses to leave. This confuses the girl. She feels threatened by him, for she is no longer in control. He is a creature — of her own making, but the tables have been turned, and he is now the powerful one. The play leaves us asking questions about our reality, rather than providing us with answers, but that is its intention.

Friday, 31 October 1975 — Free Lawawoy NEW STOCKS OF BOOTS HAVE JUST ARRIVED * Prodigal Sun �ORDS cuts have that little touch of soul, nowadays almost essential to AM radio success The biggest problem with this album is Olsson. He is under the delusion that he can sing, when all he really can do is drum. His vocal range is limited, and any attempts to go below or above it are usually unsuccessful. The album's arrangers and producer are aware of this, and try to compensate for it by extra and tracking double orchestral choruses, arrangements which overpower his voice. These semi-sincere poetry. Most of the techniques work to Nigel Olsson (Rocket Records) Nigel Olsson was the drummer amicably kicked out of Elton John's band, along with a few other people. Since this is about his only claim to fame, might expect his solo work to sound very much like that of his former boss. Well, Elton does play a you few notes on one of the songs, but that's as much as his influence is felt. Olsson's first (and hopefully last) solo effort contains 12 songs, and practically any one of them could become a big Top 40 hit, which is not meant as a compliment. Having no real inclinations or direction of his own, he has borrowed several of the most commercially successful modes in pop music. Thus you can find songs with the elements of country music, disco styles, orchestrated pop and Eric Clapton, E C. Was Here (R.S.O.) With the release of his newest album, EC. Was Here, Eric Clapton has rebounded from his moribund state of musical existence back again to a dynamic and rocking career. some extent, but they also make his voice sound more painful when it isn't camouflaged, as well as adding to the album's thin but overproduced feeling. Fortunately, one of the areas where Olsson does not exert himself is in the songwriting. He has written only three songs, and two people helped him with those. The only immediately recognizable cut, "A Girl Like You," is a carbon copy of the Rascal's classic, but it is a pale rendition without the clarity of the original The few enjoyable moments of this album come when the songs are well written enough to override their treatment, as in the case of those by Tim Moore and the Bee Gees. Just one song is well executed: "Can't You See," which has a pretty melody and a nice pseudo classical atmosphere. It sounds like simplified Electric Light Orchestra; I guess that's why I like it. Elton John made a mistake in letting this drummer go. If Olsson had stayed in the band, he would have been kept in the background; none of his musical ideas would have been exposed, and this or feel album would have been aborted. That would have E. Zielinski been nice. — Clapton's mournful voice, it closes with a flourish as Clapton and his sidekick, apprentice guitarist, George Terry trade some amazing guitar licks. It's on this specific cut that one is forced to realize that Clapton's latest band is a very good and tight E C. Was Here is a live album chronicling Clapton's tour of this past summer and if his tour was any indication of what's to come, then true, gutsy rock 'n roll (the kind that has been dormant since the passing of the mid and late 1960's) just might be returning in the personnage of the man who did more to popularize it than any other English guitarist. Though every cut on the album is at least good, at best great, there are two that are worth noting "Have You Ever Loved A Woman" and "Drifting ." Both of these songs do more to show the versatility and prowess of Clapton on guitar than any others on the album. Even though "Have You Ever Loved A Woman” opens up appropriately bluesy with the help of aggregate Elton John, Rock of the Westies (MCA Records) You must have heard that familiar phrase "I've heard that song before." Deja vu is my feeling about the new Elton John album, Rock of the I've heard it all before and this time Westies around, it's pretty bad Bernie Taupin's sense of humor, concerning a girl he met that had a fantastic body but was incredibly ugly Don’t be surprised if it shows up on the next — - First of all, with an album with such a dumb title, you know something's wrong.

This might be Taupin's theme song when he's back on the streets after the crap on this album is released One song, "Street Kids," has lyrics that are almost identical to "Saturday Night's All ight for Fighting." The biggest shock of the album lies with Elton John's terrible musical material It sounds like every other song he's done. The best song on the album, "I Feel Like a Bullet (In the Gun of Robert Ford)," sounds almost to the quarter-note like "Someone Saved My Life Tonight." "Street Kids” has a piano riff which has appeared in a dozen other John songs. You could listen to this album and compare it with any of Elton's albums before Goodbye Yellow Brick Road and you will see the downfall of a great artist. My roommate summed up Elton's present state "All Elton John is writing now is a lot of shit.” If he dares to put another album out he has a lot of making up to do.

Every "notion" presented must be made clear and acceptable. Chambers warns. Chambers accuses America of "denying its own best traditions in theater. We've ripped off from all of Europe and bastardized their theatrical traditions." This is why he was turned on to Ronnie Bwana. It is, he says, a "very American" play, but not in the "Vay, ah, Bicentennial way." This play, Chambers declares, "tips the balance towards theatrical tradition." There are a lot of plays out now, Chambers continues, about the "weird American folk heroes" like Jesse James and Billy the Kid. Most are musicals and move quickly. These are exciting, Chambers maintains, because they're looking at our culture and combining it with our best theatrical traditions. Chambers began directing when he was in high school. He doesn't like being involved "in one line of a whole series of lines." It is because of this that he directs and writes. He can then be involved in the "entire realm of creation and production," Director likes uniqueness of American theatric traditions by Steven Cohen Spectrum Arts Staff An assistant professor at this University until the spring of 1973, when he resigned his position, David Chambers has returned to us as the Associate Director of the Theater Department's Center for Theater Research, a "visiting something-or-other on the faculty," as he puts it and the director of the Theater Department's Jungle Guide. production of Ronnie Bwana During his previous stint at the University, Chambers ■ tarted the company called the Faustus Project. This later evolved into the Buffalo Project, which is the group "in 'residence at the Center for Theater Research at the Courtyard Theater." During the time that Chambers was away from Buffalo, he worked on shows in New York and in Minnesota. Fie also directed and wrote the book and lyrics for a show that toured the Midwest. He has now "started to write . . . because I wasn't finding scripts that interested me." He enjoys writing and regards it as his "next big life challenge." Chambers doesn't like acting, though, because he has "the world's worst case of stage fear." He gets "all his acting out in rehearsals, as the director." He did, however, act professionally on CBS' Search for Tomorrow. Apart from that, all his acting has been non-professional. — Sports and theater Chambers was attracted to the theater when he was in high school. This happened, he says, because the only ways he had of getting recognition when he was young involved and theater. In college. Chambers "moved away from theater," becoming very political. He started an SDS chapter at his school and was student body president and "threw a lot of bricks at the Dean's window." He later received an MFA in Theater from Yale. As for directing. Chambers notes that from the director's point of view, working with professionals sports actors often need a lot of training. Each level has its advantages, however. When working with Student actors. Chambers says he can "question what is acting," which is one of the "major concerns" of his life. "What is the task of the actor?What can he bring to the stage and the audience and the role that he plays? These are the fundamental questions to which Chambers can get back when he works on the college level. He feels that professionals often think they're beyond these questions (which they never are) and don't try to deal with them. 'Create a gift’ Chambers likes to develop things. He likes "to create a gift" and "prepare and spice it and bring it forth." There is also a negative reasoning for his directing, that being the Frustrations Student actors have their own types of frustrations, though. They are involved in other things and there are scheduling and level-of-commitment differences. Professional actors, however, are expensive. For example, the present production of Ronnie Bwana Jungle Guide, Chambers estimates would cost about $300,000 if presented on a large off-Broadway scale in New York. Here, though, the cost is about $2,500. — The cost factor in professional theater makes it difficult to show raw new works, due to the danger of losing an enormous amount of money. This, states Chambers, is why the Center for Theater Research is so important. It exposes new plays and talented people who might otherwise never get this needed exposure. The Theater Department, Chambers says, chose to put on Ronnie Bwana because the play was available and also because of its large scale. It is very funny (when it works) and unabashedly flamboyant. It is. Chamber says, "unashamed in its tribute to bad thirties and forties movies. It has all the stock cliches, sometimes with interesting twists. It has rock numbers, soft shoe numbers . . . bad jokes, good jokes, elaborate jokes, simple jokes and a cast of thousands. It's a poor man's spectacular." Dark humor involves very little training of actors, while college-level It has depth, though, Chambers notes. h Darm humor "incredible power" involved in directing. Basically, though, he enjoys bringing people together and trying to find a "common sensibility." As a director, Chambers will "do almost anything," but he prefers the "American theatrical tradition." Ronnie Bwana, he says, is chock full of all the things Americans are best at music, vaudeville and improvisation. Theater is on the upswing in America, Chambers maintains, but "it doesn't know where the hell it's going." The biggest problem in America is that is has "never developed a relationship with theater." This is unlike Europe where theater is very much a part of the life and culture. "George Bernard Shaw said a country without a theater is a country without a soul." He continues, "I think America is a country without a soul, although a soul — is beginning to develop." As proof, Chambers offers the fact that despite the economic depression at the beginning of the last Broadway season, its theaters had their most successful season in about 15 years. According to Chambers, the theater looks up now and says "all right, now that we're here and established, what the hell are we?What have we got that's ours? American theatrical tradition (vaudeville and musical) can be traced back to other forms, but we made it something unique.

I am not prepared either to accept the writer’s that Arabs are anti-Zionist, but not anti-Semitic. What, if not anti-Semitism, would one call an Arab state’s refusal to admit a person of the Jewish faith even for a visit?Incidentally, the term anti-Semitism was not mine, but rather a quotation from a remark by the U.S. Delegate to the U.N. Social, Humanitarian and Cultural Committee to characterize the resolution on Zionism. No, Mr. Arabi, 1 do not believe that the State of Israel is immune from criticism. No state, ancient or modern, is. I simply claimed that Zionism is not a form of racism as the ill-conceived U.N. Committee resolution did. And I furthermore claimed that his kind of political recklessness pursued by the Communist and Arab blocks in the U.N. will not do the cause of a peaceful world any good. argument I have difficulty with Wahad Arabi’s reasoning in his letter to The Spectrum of Oct. 27. To characterize as racism Israel’s refusal to permit the Palestinians to return is highly inappropriate. The facts are: Many thousands of Arabs have been repatriated over the years. Many thousands have been visiting in Israel under the summer visitation program. Arabs living in Israel have the same political rights as any other citizens of Israel, including representation in Parliament and positions in the Government. What the writer failed to point out is that there are many Palestinians who wish to return for the sole purpose of destroying the State of Israel from within. To grant permission to return under those circumstances entails a security risk which no state can afford to take.

To focus on any one of the above points as its BASIC purpose, is, I feel misleading, for as one can see the Gray Panthers are a multi-dimensional group. Panthers To the Editor. I would like to clarify some of the statements attributed to me in the article, “Young and Old Organize in the War to End Age Discrimination” in Monday’s Oct. 27 issue of The Spectrum. In this article, Jerry Rosoff stated that I am a “spokesperson” for the Buffalo Chapter of the Gray Panthers.

In response to Richard Lynch’s note in The Spectrum regarding the Giant’s win over the Bills at Rich Stadium, I find it humorous that New Yorkers feel their sports teams are in the same class as those of Buffalo’s. Granted, an occasional win is to be expected. Shall we talk hockey?As far as the abuse New York fans have taken from Buffalo fans, 1 find th6 exact opposite true and I’m not only referring to sports. Seems that New Yorkers can’t recognize a better city when they see it or at least they can’t admit it, and again I’m not only referring to sports. I’m not originally from Buffalo, so I feel I can say these things without bragging. Compare the two cities from any aspect; financial well being, (although Buffalo is now being dragged down by New York) crime rate, music and sports, and the type of human being it produces, and 1 feel Buffalo must certainly come up on top. Even considering that Buffalo is a smaller city (A “Town” I’ve heard it referred to by New Yorkers), it undoubtedly offers more, especially from a human level. For New Yorkers who feel the need to criticize Buffalo, especially in areas in which she excels, please go back to New York and go to school, if you can stand the Money’s the motive To the Editor There are two reasons why people become involved in political struggles. One reason is to effect some kind of meaningful political change because of one’s personal beliefs. The other reason is to achieve a significant personal gain. I am afriad that the recent activism on the part of CUNY and SUNY students regarding the N.Y.C. financial crisis is more for the second reason than the first. This belief is based upon the fact that, absent of an issue involving their wallets, most students are politically dormant. If this be the case, CUNY and SUNY students are no different from Chase Manhattan Bank, Lockhead, General Motors and the rest. All are special interests fighting for one cause; themselves. The real tragedy occurs when the N.Y.C. crisis is over. General Motors, Chase Manhattan, and SUNY and CUNY students, will crawl into a hole and hide place. Chris Baker Apple sellers To the Editor A recent issue of The Spectrum carried a letter from one David Weprin of Albany, calling on students to buy “Little MAC” bonds to help save New York City. It should be noted that Weprin is the son of a state assemblyman from New York City. While saving New York City (and for that matter large cities in general) is an essential cause, Weprin’s idea of bailing out New York by bailing out its banks is somewhat lacking in good intentions. One thing Weprin did not mention in his letter: under the law creating the Municipal Assistance Corporation, bondholders are paid before city employees in the event of bankruptcy. To Weprin’s proposal 1 can only reply that it is bankers and bondholders who should be the ones to sell apples on the street corners. It is the bankers who should be laid off, made to retire early, sped-up, and harassed, not honest city employees. mi,wo W BOMB UMO ewe ear vouee: VGbT camn (6s sprinters David l.ennetl Mike McGuire jH(|?R3B;MIRR0R Ok) until the next issue that effects their wallets.

More emphasis is put on expressing yourself than on producing something that’s OK by men’s standards.” Joyce said the goal of the two skill classes, Automotives and Photography, is “breaking down the stereotypes that women can’t do certain things.

He is presently a student at this University and a staff member of The Spectrum. by Jack Kramer Spectrum his Staff Writer With Generalissmo Franco on death-bed in Spain, the anticipation of growing internal turmoil brings back thoughts of Spanish the Civil War and Franco’s rise to power. In 1936, five years after the monarchy abdicated, the Spanish people elected a new government, comprised of a coalition of Left Communists, Republican and Syndicalists. The new cabinet consisted entirely of liberal Republicans but enjoyed the parliamentary support of the Socialists and the Communists.

The Poles are currently on tour in the United States as part of the Amateur Athletic Union’s cultural exchange program. The Polish team is made up of wrestlers who have competed in either Olympic, European, or World events, while the American team will include such memorable Bulls as Bill Jacoutot, Tony Policare, Eric Knuutila, and Charlie Wright. Other Americans in the meet will be top graduates from wrestling programs at Brockport and Cornell. Competition will be in both freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestling, a disadvantage for Americans who tend to stay away from Greco-Roman. One of the more interesting matchups in the meet will be at 136.5 pounds. The Americans will go with Jim Young, who was undefeated in dual meet competition last year, only to be slowed by an injury in the NCAA championships.

McDonough is satisfied with the course but has been unhappy with the lack of cooperation exhibited by Campus Security.

In Wednesday’s issue of The Spectrum, an article reported on the which is activities of the Buffalo Frisbee team, one of many club sports which for some funded at Buffalo. Most of the clubs promote sports Frisbee, reason cannot make their way into varsity status. For Ultimate the reason is lack of established organization. Other club sports include lacrosse, skiing and bowling, but it is Ultimate Frisbee which is so curious. Frisbee itself is a relatively new concept. Frisbees have not been popular for too long. But Ultimate Frisbee is an innovation which shows that almost any athletic activity can somehow be converted to a team sport, even on the varsity level. Sports like skydiving, handgliding, and auto racing certainly could be adapted to create collegiate level sports, and who knows, maybe someday that will happen. In any case, the time for planning out some of these “new” collegiate sports is now, and so, here is a list of possibilities for your consumption and consideration. (By the way, if you come up with ideas of your own, we would love to hear from you.) Varsity Dodge Bali. There is nothing new about this game, and to promote it to the varsity level would be simple. Team size and number of “outs” permitted would have to be determined, however. Varsity Freeze Tag. Teams of seven players would play on a typical gym floor. A team would score an “ice cube” every time it froze the entire opposition. The game would be played over two timed halves with offense and defense switching at each half. Most “ice cubes at the end of the game wins. is the last day to TODAY, OCT. 31 St submit proposals for revised budgets If you are finding difficulty meeting costs for proposed projects — you are entitled to submit revised or altered budget proposals. These new plans will be considered fulfillment. So, if Sports Editor are CLUBS, possible by David J. Rubin & reviewed for necessary, submit pour budget revision TODAY in the S.A. Office, Varsity Rope Jumping. This sport would probably take on a track meet type of format, with competition in speed (most jumps in a minute, five minutes, etc.), distance (races around a track while jumping rope). and pairs events Varsity Hide and Seek. To make this game viable on the varisty level, each school would play six a side, and -would have one hour to tag at least one member of the opposition. Hiders would have the option of reaching “home” to avoid a tag, but would have to shout “Home Free All” When they arrived. Unfortunately, it is expected that this game would be subject to extreme home court advantage. Varsity Fan This is a new idea in sport developed for the college level. It would operate similar to ice skating, because there would he one section termed “compulsory' and another known as freestyle. In the compulsorics each team member would go through various types ol cheerleading and tan chants like “Nuts and bolts, nuts and bolts, we got screwed.” In the freestyle, each athlete would perform his own 3-minufe routine of cheers, motions, and boos. Varsity Fund Raising. In this competition the two schools would be paired off. One player from gach team would be sent out to try to collect as much money as possible from the student body for a fictitious cause determined by the referees before hand. The team with of dollars collected over a time period wins. This sport is especially beneficial since funds raised can be used to supplement athletic budgets. most amount Varsity scoring scoring Varsity require Treat. This sport is similar to fund raising, but its system is a little bit different. Instead of dollars, calories is the unit. In case of a tie, number of potential cavities is substituted. Sleeping. This one is fairly straightforward, but it would overnight road trips. Trick or Varsity Pizzamaking. Another fairly straightforward idea. It would be scored similarly to pole vaulting. Contestants would attempt certain heights of “pizza toss” and be charged with a miss if they either dropped the pizza (God forbid) or didn’t throw it high enough. Club Snowshoveling. Tins sport would be restricted to the club level because travel in the snow is difficult. Four man teams would attempt to clear equal-sized driveways as fast as possible. This sport would be held in two divisions, regular shovel, and power snowblower. Varsity Bolkswagen An old idea, this sport would put an emphasis on smallness as teams would try to cram as many players into a Volks as possible. Combined scores would include performances in Beetles, Super Beetles, Sciroccos, Rabbits and Vans. Varsity Shuffleboard and Varsity Bocci Like dodge ball, these are already established sports which could easily be adopted for collegiate competition Intramural Parking. This sport is restricted to the intramural level, because it is unknown whether it can be set up at other colleges. Two five man teams would drive cars individually from Main and Amherst. They would park as close to campus as possible and then run to Clark Hall to check in. Scoring would be based on two factors; time from Main and Amherst to Clark Hall, and closeness of parking space to campus. Parking in faculty lots would result in disqualification.

Kirkpatrick told the SASU membership last weekend in Albany that the financial situation facing SUNY and New York State could necessitate the closing of several SUNY campuses should the city default. SASU Executive Committee member Linda Kaboolian indicated that SUNY has gone so far as to draw up tentative plans for closing two or three campuses. Speculation centered on the State Colleges at Fredonia, Utica-Rome and Old Westbury as the schools most likely to be closed. Old Westbury does not yet have a library building, and the other most recently-opened SUNY campus, Utica—Rome, has no buildings at all. Fredonia may be in danger because it is reportedly not meeting its enrollment quota. , Seriousness stressed Construction cutbacks announced by Chancellor Ernest Boyer last week will delay the beginning of the Utica-Rome structures another year, even if the city does not default. “Most students don’t grasp how serious the problem really is,” Kirkpatrick said. ‘Teople don’t realize what it could mean for us and for SUNY.” Kirkpatrick, a non-voting member of the SUNY Board of Trustees, also predicted lay-offs for thousands of faculty, tuition increases, and the destruction of open-access and Educational Opportunity (EOP)-ojiented programs The membership accepted nine “courses of action,” recommended by Kirkpatrick, to help prevent New York City’s financial collapse, most of which will be carried out in, conjunction with other 29 October 1975 Audubon Development of Amherst new community halted by UDC The state Urban Development Corporation (UDC) has voted to further site suspend any development at its Audubon new community in Amherst. The announcement came just four days after a decision by the State University (SUNY) Board of Trustees to freeze all new construction on state-operated campuses. The 2000-acres Audubon community was designed to absorb an anticipated 27,000 increase person population created by the adjacent Amherst of Suspension Campus. development there, like the freeze on Amherst construction, is part of a cutback on all state-funded construction in light of New York City’s anticipated default and the state Housing Finance Agency’s difficulty in selling long term municipal bonds. Both moves apparently spell an end to an era of seemingly limitless growth and prosperity for the University in Amherst. developed land. In addition, most of UDCs 24 member staff will reportedly be fired. “This is not an abandonment of Audubon,” stated John G. Burnett, UDC President and chief executive officer. He explained that the usspension, the length of which must still be discussed at a meeting in Amherst with local officials Wednesday, would not affect work on Audubon’s first 215 units. One-hundred eighty of these have already been sold. Work will probably stop on the planned Audubon Parkway, the four lane road planned as the spine of the new community. The freeze at Audubon also places in doubt the future of the proposed Buffalo-Amherst Rapid which Corridor, for Transit federal funds are pending. The new elevated trains were planned to serve the new residents of Amherst. The future of a planned large commerical shopping center, seen as a source of badly needed “The UDC, like all agencies in the state, is in a very tenuous cash position,” a UDC spokesperson in Albany told the Buffalo Evening News Monday. Six months ago, the state legislature gave the UDC $368 it from million to save bankruptcy. At that time, the agency agreed to study the feasibility of long term “new town” projects like Audubon and Radison in Syracuse. A Toronto-based consulting agency, commissioned to make the study, concluded that the projected sale of 600 units at Audubon this year was a gross overestimation. The consultant’s report is said to favor the completion of housing projects which provide cash, mainly in rents, on a reliable basis, and to delay the two public development projects. It was then decided that Audubon building will henceforth be restricted to private previously contractors on —continued on page 8— organizations. Letters and lobbies These included letter-writing and lobbying campaigns, to be undertaken by SASU in cooperation with the National Student Lobby, National Student Assembly, United Student Senate, the City University of New York Faculty Union, the Union of University Professionals and the Coalition for Public Higher Education (an organization of labor unions). Also considered was a one-day SUNY-wide moratorium of classes, andean intensive, simultaneous coverage of the budget crisis by the SUNY student media. These measures, according to Kirkpatrick, would all ask aid for New York City, and thus fight the cutbacks SUNY will have to face if the city’s economy collapses. “We need to make people know what’s going on,” he stressed. Kirkpatrick said the moratorium on classes would be “a day of education,” during which discussions of the crisis would take place on each campus. Trustee support? Purchase SASU delegate Andy Hugos also suggested that on the day of moratorium, students rally in Albany and/or Washington to make their concerns visible to their government representatives. Kirkpatrick said he believes the Board of Trustees would be willing to support such a moratorium as a means to back up requests for federal aid for New Yorjc City. Several members he spoke to “agreed that something had to be done, and that maybe this [moratorium] is a good idea.” The importance of a unified effort within SUNY to face the impending crisis was stressed by many of the SASU delegates. “We have to educate the faculty just as much as the students,” said Potsdam representative Todd Siegler. \/ • I 1 •, # /A Audubon • * $ JZ I? 5* Xo'K' lYAB MorfK CarnpY* Catastrophy S ASU Services Director Jim Mossgraber added that the effects of a default would be “catastrophic” to many other groups, besides students. A steep decline in the stock market, such as the one which began when New York City almost defaulted two weeks ago, would certainly take place, he said Another course of action that was proposed by Hugos, and subsequently adopted was “petitioning the SUNY Board of Trustees to use their influence in the banking community” to invest in city bonds. “It’s the bankers that are, in fact, running the city,” Hugos explained, pointing out that among the Trustees are executives of the Chase Manhattan and Marine Midland Banks. “And they’re doing it by not investing in the city,” he said. The membership also ratified proposals by Hugos to lobby within the federal government “to declare a moratorium on payment of interest to banks” and form a special committee to plan specific tactics, programs, and strategy for carrying out these proposals. 2S2A,, SMWYHe Main 9t.

Bill sent back to committee n �Congressman seeks to ban publicity about Evel Knievel by Pat Quinlivan City Editor Congressman John M. Murphy (D., N Y.) is waging a campaign to have the feats of daredevil Evel Knievel banned from network television in this country. Citing numerous serious injuries suffered by youngsters who have tried to duplicate the motorcyclist’s daring leaps, Murphy told the House of Representatives last week that he believes the American Broadcasting Company (ABC) “has made a ‘pact with .the Devil’.” In his latest move, Murphy urged the Federal Communications Commission (FOC) to prevent the showing of Knievel’s October 23 jump over 14 Greyhound buses at an amusement park in Ohio. No action was taken by the FOC? Knievel survived the jump, which was featured live on ABC’s Wide WoHd of Sports, but he narrowly avoided serious iqjury and possibly death, when his rear wheel landed on the fourteenth bus, several feet short of the ramp. His bike cracked, but held together, and he rode down the > ramp safely. World-famous life-risker The “World-famous Life-risker,” as he was called by ABC announcers, sternly and emphatically repeated before and after his jump that what he does is dangerous, and should not be imitated by anyone else. It was the publicity surrounding Knievel’s most famous performance, an attempted rocket-jump over the Snake River Canyon on September 8, 1974, that drew Murphy’s first official blasts. He charged then that ABC executives not only refused to remove a tape of the event from their September 14 schedule last fall, but proceeded to spend thousands of dollars in publicizing both the jump itself and the video-taped replay of it on Wide World of Sports. Murphy explained before the House last week that his argument is not with Knievel, but “with the networks who, in protecting their investment, give no thought to the bloody consequences or after giving it some thought, simply ignore it.*’ f Detailed injuries V Murphy then re-introduced a report he wrote last year, detailing injuries suffered by youngsters all over the country who tried to duplicate Knievcl’s feats of derring-do. For example: A 14-year-old from Utica, New York - drove up an old car hood on his bike and tumbled, crushing the bones in his neck.

The ETS is the non-profit corporation centered in Princeton, New Jersey, that designs and administers standardized exams used for admission into colleges and universities across the country. “We as students are the largest consumers of the ETS product mass testing,” said Paul Maggiotto, local ETS coordinator for Buffalo NYPIRG. “It is time for students to stand up for their rights as consumers and demand that ETS be accountable for its errors,” he added. - Dr. Jorge Guitart Thursday, Oct 30 at 2:00 in 215 L Richmond imitators.” The report also included other tales of children from 6-16 who received broken bones and concussions as the result of their attempts to emulate their hero. Many of these told hospital attendants and doctors that they were Evel Knievel. Murphy added that Attorney General Edward Levi “has pointed to violence on TV as a major cause of this country’s love affair with violent behavior.” An ETS complaint center has been established in the NYPIRG office in 311 Norton Hall. Any student who has experienced difficulties with ETS or mass testing is encouraged to fill out a complaint form which will be sent to the state coordinating center for the ETS project at Brooklyn College. If the complaints action will be proposed ETS's unresponsiveness its secrecy, “and prove substantial, legislative to end what NYPIRG feels is to education and the public, most important, its often destructive influence on educational policy making and on individual students." “Students have no where to turn if they have been mistreated by ETS,” added NYPIRG staff attorney Gerry Schultz. “It is part of our goal to make people more aware of ETS, mass testing, and their effect on the education process,” he explained. Joanne Slaight, ETS state-wide coordinator said, “The purpose will be to see whether ETS, operator of LSAT’a, SAT’s. NMSQT’s and a plethora of other \ educational tests is guilty of large-scale inefficiency. We’ll be looking for students or former students who feel they have been victimized by ETS’s mechanical errors.” She said this inefficiency may include loss or unreasonable delay in sending out transcripts, failure to report scores or assignment of students to wrong testing centers. In its pamphlet. Let's Test the Testers, NYPIRG cited a case where the transcripts of 200 law school applicants were lost by ETS during 1974-75. More accountable NYPIRG staff attorneys are currently drafting legislation designed to make ETS more accountable. “We hope to mandate disclosure [of ETS activities] and provide remedies for students who have had difficulty with ETS,” explained state NYPIRG director Donald Ross. Maggiotto explained that the NYPIRG office plans to open additional complaint centers at high schools and other colleges throughout the Buffalo area. Another goal of the ETS project is to investigate how the test scores are interpreted and used by school admission officials. “A mqjor problem with the mass testing syndrome, are the abusers of test scores administrative officials who rely too heavily on test scores in determining acceptable applicants,” - Maggiotto remarked. Students can pick up complaint forms and drop them in the ETS complaint box outside the NYPIRG office.^ Wednesday, 29 October 1975 . The Spectrum .

About 115 students participated in the games and activities at the event. One popular, but messy activity was the pie throw, while the possible free dinner at the Scotch and Sirloin made the lottery a big attraction. Other games at the carnival included bouncing-ball and basin-ball games, a tongue-deptesser game, run by an individual clad in a crazy doctor costume, a ring-tossing game and a tick-tack-toe game with bean bags. The carnival was designed to help the University in its contribution to the United Way drive. The has been highly successful, earning a total of about $330. This year’s carnival was more successful than last year’s because it was on a Friday night, while last year’s was on a Sunday afternoon, according to director Sharlot Flury. “I thought it would be a good way to raise money for the United Fund,” she explained. She hopes to see the carnival become an annual event. Asked about the time that went, into the planning of this event, Flury replied, “It was a lot of work,” and much credit is due to the 25 volunteers who helped make the carnival possible. New street lights cut energy while increasing light output by Paul Buttino Staff Writer Spectrum Cities that replace incandescent street lights with high pressure sodium lamps may realize a substantial cut substantial increases in lighting with in energy costs. Many cities have been forced to cut back on street-light usage in an effort to conserve energy. In many cases, however, this led to higher crime rates and a rise in automobile accidents. In Salem, Oregon, the local utility company replaced 1,000-watt mercury lights in the business district with 400-watt high-pressure sodium units. This switch is netting Salem taxpayers a 40 percent increase in lighting levels, and a 42 percent cut in energy consumption. Further proof of the potential energy saving offered by this new lighting technology can be seen in New York City. Milton Musicus, chairman of a committee planning to install more than 86,000 sodium street-lights throughout the five borroughs, said this action will provide almost 50 percent more light, yet save citizens more than one-million gallons of oil per year. (population 32,000) increased light-levels from one footcandle to four footcandles, according to city Electric Superintendent Joe Brackin. “The lamps provide 14,200 more lumens of light per standard, yet require ten percent less energy than 400-watt mercury lamps. This means we have upgraded our lighting, while reducing energy requirements,” he Other cities The switch from incandescent to high-pressure sodium lighting is being witnessed in other areas throughout the country. “Turning the lights out wouldn’t be as wise as carrying out our conservation switching from incandescent to either program mercury or high-pressure sodium units which burn less electricity, but give more illumination,” said Conrad B.

Bob and Don's added. Strange hues The public has generally reacted favorably to the new lighting systems, complaining only of the unusual yellowish hue they emit. One advantage of the new lamps is that they adapt easily to the light posts already in service. Most only require removal of the old lamp and replacing the new. One reason sodium lighting isn’t as wide-spread as the efficiency statistics suggest is due to difficulties in maintaining them. One city lost 34 percent of its light output as a result of dust accumulation on the new units and 24 percent was lost due to aging of the equipment. The accumulation of bugs which adhere to the also contributes to lamp surface reflecting depreciation. Time control devices which regulate when the lights go on and off, is important in cost-cutting and energy-saving. Time switches can be set for any time period desired. With the photoelectric or light-sensitive switch, the amount of daylight falling on a xell lowers the resistence and permits a current to flow. When the lighting level drops, however, the resistence of the cell is raised sufficiently to reduce current flow. Thus, the photoelectric control operates when lights are needed.

Available at YOUR UNIVERSITY BOOKSTORE Norton — �Commentary Peaceful foreign policy seems incompatible with arms race and that our national security is best served by building new weapons systems. Recently, the New York Times quoted Schlesinger as saying that the Soviet Union “may be outspending us by 50 percent.” The idea of a “Soviet menace” which will outspend us in building new nuclear weapons has been the main argument the Defense Department has used to justify by Philip Moran Staff Writer Spectrum The 1976 defense budget is being studied by Congressional appropriations committees this month. The Pentagon’s justification for increasing the defense budget by $10 billion raises questions over the Ford administration’s support of detente with the Soviet Union. Secretary of Defense James Schlesinger’s insistence on spending billions of dollars to construct B-l bombers and first-strike nuclear weapons is in apparent conflict with President Ford’s continuation of political and military detente with the Soviet Union. President Ford and Secretary of State Kissinger have supported peaceful coexistence with the Soviet Union. Kissinger has reported that a new strategic arms limitation agreement with the Soviet Union is on the verge of completion. The negotiation of this agreement is consistent with the May 26, 1972 agreement between the two superpowers to limit anti-ballistic missile systems. Agreements signed between former President Nixon and Communist Party leader Leonid Brezhnev in 1973 specified that neither the United States nor the Soviet Union should engage in any actions that would heighten world tensions in the direction of nuclear war. The Pentagon, on the other hand, insists that a “strong defense posture” is the most effective guarantee of peace. Schlesinger considers the threat of limited nuclear warfare as a deterrent to any type of foreign “aggression.” In recent months, he has threatened to use nuclear weapons against the Democratic People’s Republic of North Korea. The Pentagon also commissioned the American Security Council (ASC), a private organization, to analyze the success of detente and the possible alternative of limited nuclear war. According to the Daily World, a leading Communist Party publication, the ASC report, “Detente and Soviet Strategy,” states that detente is assisting in the Soviet quest for “world domination.” The ASC report also states that a “major tenet of Soviet strategy is peaceful coexistence in order to avoid strategic nuclear war.” The report supports the idea that the Sovet Union is engaged in detente for ulterior motives increases in military spending. It is clear from United Nations’ (UN) statistics that this accusation by Schlesinger is without foundation. In October 1971, groups of experts in the UN, including both Americans and Soviets, unanimously adopted a report entitled The Economic and Social Consequences of the Arms Race and Its Profoundly Grave Affects on Peace and Security in the World. - The report showed that from 1949-1969, the Soviet Union increased military spending by 4.1 percent each year as compared to 7 percent each year by the United States. Since 1969, the Soviet Union has not increased its military spending at all, according to the UN Statistical Yearbook. In 1974, the USSR Central Board of Statistics reported a small decline in military spending. The UN Statistical Yearbook also shows that as a percentage of the national budget, Soviet expenditures on defense declined from 12.4 percent in 1970 to 8 percent last year. In absolute terms, the Soviets have spent about $40 billion for defense each year since 1969. Jean EUenstein’s book, History of the USSR confirms these statistics. However, she speculates that perhaps as much as five percent of the budget goes toward economic and military aid to national liberation movements. This would conceivably add another $15—$20 million to the official , defense budget. There are no reliable statistics that put the figure higher than $60 billion. The Soviet Union would have to spend $135 billion to substantiate Schlesinger’s charge. The United States, on the other hand, has increased defense spending from $81.2 billion in 1969 to 87.7 in 1975, according to the United States government. Defense spending makes up 30 percent of the federal government’s budget, which was $304.4 billion in the year ending in June 1975. Since the end of the Vietnam war, the Defense Department has had difficulty justifying higher military spending. Not only is there popular opposition to defense increases because these increases often mean huts in social programs, but a significant section of big business is also opposed to more defense spending. The Daily World reported that Philip Defliese, a spokesman for Coopers and Lybrand, the largest accounting firm in the world, stated: “The costs of stockpiling nuclear weapons and maintaining nuclear arms and largely unproductive armies cannot be tolerated in modern times.” It seems clear that the trend of pursuing pfeace in foreign policy and attempting to meet domestic social needs is incompatible with the nuclear arms race. The Ford administration, however, seems intent on riding these contradictory currents.

Paradise lost About ten years ago; Governor Rockefeller held out the hope that SUNY would become the crown of state educational systems throughout the country* with this particular campus designated as the largest jewel in that crown. We are now somewhere between that expectation and the realization (limbo), with no hope of ever realizing it within our educational lifetime. - It is cause for despair. The SUNY central administration retrenches while Hayes Hall tells us we must "bite the bullet." This implies -cutting the acquisition budget of a library that has been desperately trying to catch up in order to become what administrators pretend it to be, a major reserach facility; —building a gym for 25,000+ Brockport's, a school of 5,000; students the size of —cutting back on academic programs in the name of centralization, leaving highly trained, well-paid faculty like a heard of beached whales, without programs or students in their areas of expertise; —maintaining a vast array of "interim, temporary" campuses spread throughout the city at great cost while running a million dollar per year busing program to shuttle harried students from campus to campus. It is bad enough no viable sense of community exists because of the physical conditions we inherited, but we must put up with the adminsitration's decision to stop printing a yearly academic directory which destroys any hope of incoming and transfer students ever knowing about school services, academic courses and programs without journeying to every department in our far-flung galaxy. Adding insult to injury, the campus phone directory discontinued student listings, placing everyone incommunicado. Since the public phone directory doesn't include student's phones installed in September, the entire University must resort to getting its information from the new pay as you go New York Telephone Information System. All we are left with is a long list of phone numbers on a printed paper that tells us, "help, where to find it!" We can only conclude that our educators have somewhere lost sight of their purpose. This vast multi-million dollar institution no longer (if it ever did) considers education its primary responsibility, shortchanging students, teachers, and the taxpayers of the state of New York. "Let each become all he is capable of being" has become nothing but the emptiest of phrases. - The Spectrum Vol. 26, No. 30 Wednesday, 29 October 1975 Editor-in-Chief — Amy Dunkin Managing Editor Richard Korman Gerry McKeen Advertising Manager Howard Koenig Business Manager - - — Laura Bartlett Howard Greenblatt Pat Quinlivan Shari Hochberg David Rapheal Mitchell Regenbogen .

To the Editor. A guide to Food Service To the Editor. 1 would like to call to your attention a comment made by Donald Bozek, Assistant Director of Food Service. I quote from the October 22 issue of The Spectrum: “They (students) are more expendable than their full-time counterparts because their work usually requires very little skill.” He said this in reference to the dismissal of several student employees of Food Service. It is with reference to his referral that I suggest that there is no barter time than now to look into the education and background of a full-time employee of Food Service. Leave us begin The big name in colleges and universities that offer the special major in food service is UCLA (University Cafeteria at Los Angeles). A more popular way of obtaining your degree in this field, however, is to take a mail correspondence course such as the one offered by ECPI (Eat, Chew, then Pray Institute). As their brochure reads, “Just send us the keys to your car and the deed to your house and one week later you too will have a career in the exciting field of Food Service.” This route although more expensive is much easier. Admission to schools requiring your attendance, I quote from Baron's Colleges and Universities, is “competitive.” Hence it necessitates not only good marks in high school, but also high scores on your F.S.A.T.s (Food Service Aptitude Test). Good grades and high scores aren’t everything though. I quote now from Sloppy's Food Shoveling and Club Fool Digest what the author believes are important traits for a successful and long career in Food Service. “Must like to wear wigs. Must like to wear Howard Johnson uniforms. Must like to scratch nose.” The last characteristic, perhaps the most important one, depends on how well your mother did her job. For the best qualification to be a Food Service employee is to have been weaned on a sour pickle. It is important to remember that not unlike being a doctor this is a twenty-four hour job. At home a “Food Service lady” is as efficient in her own kitchen as she is at work. The father and the children line up, trays in hand and announce their numbers. “One. Two. Three . .” depending on how many are in the family. She gives a ticket to each member of her household so as to make sure each can get seconds but not thirds. “SMACK” the mashed potatoes hit Dad’s plate. That same wrist action used so effectively on the job is just as effective at home. “Just a little gravy for me, Mom,” says little Suzy. “FLOOD” goes the gravy “Perfect,” replies her daughter. Bob, her son asks for . Julienne Salad, but it’s Tuesday. “No dice kid,” comes the answer from Mom. “You’re all the same in this family.” He settles for the dinner steak, which Mom hands him with her plastic glove protected hand. Bob chuckles as he remembers the time the police nearly arrested his mother for possession of a concealed weapon. Mom had left the cover on the dinner steak box. The hungry family chooses a table in the rear of the dining room and heads towards the salad bar. It’s a miniature of the real ones used in cafeterias around the country. A sign is noticed by Suzy. “No union grown lettuce,” it reads. She’s not upset though'. She likes the shredded pictures of lettuce from newspapers and magazines Mom has so cleverly substituted in place of the real thing. The meal is enjoyed by all except Bob who casually deposits his dinner steak in the suggestion box. Mom grabs the mashed potato ladle and plays Flight of the Bumblebees on Bob’s face. Suzy giggles, Bob sobs. Mom wipes her forehad, and Dad farts from the vegetarian Garbonzo he chose that night for his dinner. Dad then says excuse me and Mom beats him senseless with Bob’s uneaten dinner steak. That Mom, what a card. She’s one in a million, independent and dedicated to her career in Food Service. Ladie& and gentlemen of the jury I shall now ask you some questions which you cannot overlook in making a decision on this case. Can the students match the skill of the full-time employees? Can these students work as efficiently as their counterparts? I ask you, just because a man kills someone does that make him a murderer1? If a woman has a baby does that make her a mother? If a man is a Rabbi does that mean he’s Jewish? You can’t fight my reasoning. On behalf of Mr. Bozek I rest my case. Steven Green �"IT'S FRIGHTENING THE WAV SOME OF THESE CONGRESSMEN WANT TO PRY INTO OUR AFFAIRS* Mutual recognition a must To the Editor. In response to my letter of October 22, the editor asks what I mean by “you.” My letter is addressed to the world and all of those in the world who seek to deny my people, the Jewish people, their unalienable right to national self-determination. Wahad Arabi states that Zionism is racist and denies the Palestinians their national self-determination. Zionism docs not deny this right to any known peoples of the world. Zionism recognizes this right of the Palestines. It is the Palestinians who do not recognize this same right of the Jewish people. The U.N. now decides who shall and who shall not have this unalienable right to be independent of foreign domination, subjegation and persecution. Certain nations within the U.N. seem to feel that they can decide who has more of a right to live. Certain Arab governments and the P.L.O. have specifically stated their desires to destroy Israel and with It, Jewish independence. They have demonstrated their anti-semitic as well as anti-Zionist feelings. The persecution of non-Zionist Jews in Syria is the perfect example of this. Not only are these Jews denied employment, education and freedom of movement, they are denied basic human rights such as the right to remain a whole human being, without being dismembered by secret police and the right of a Jewish woman to live without fear of an official government sanctioned rape. The obscene barbarism of the Syrian both officially and unofficially toward Syrian Jewry screams of human degradation at its lowest. When the official Arab world as a whole and the Palestinians in particular accept the fact that Jews as well as any other people have the right to rational self-determination, Israel will work towards the and only independence of the Palestinian people then. It is absurd for any thinking human being to expect a nation like Israel to put effort into another people’s independence when this other people states again and again their national priority to destroy this nation,- Israel. Peace for we Israelis and the Arabs is possible, but only when there is a mutual recognition and respect for our respective independence, cultures and ways of life. — Eliezer ben Israel '(215,820 LETTERS \\ 31 n qpgNgp I BLACK I I c JOSS _ —— TRB I / from Washington miwd DOSSIERS) ff TAPS w —; To the I'.Jitur. A common tear shared by the people with whom I have discussed the Middle I asl question has always been taking a stand that might be labeled as by I don't know what "anti Israeli.” and therefore "anti-Semitic." However. Kabbi Justin logic Hofmann's letter {The Sfieelrum. Oct. 22. I75> sheds light upon such fears. The question that begs asking when reading Kabhi Hofmann's letter is obviously this: why did these 70 nations vote anti-Zionist? Is it because “these Arabs" have huge amounts of oil and are able to use it to blackmail the countries of Ihe third world and the Communist bloc? But again, why do “these Arabs” consider Zionism as a lacisl ideology'.’ Has Rabbi Hofmann ever heard of an Israeli law called Ihe Law of Return, under which any person of Ihe Jewish faith from any -part of the world can become an Israeli citizen, while Ihe ,t() year Palestinian refugee is denied such a right'’ Moreover, Rabbi, Hofmann quotes ihe US delegate to the U.N. Social. Humanitarian and Cultural Committee as saying: ", the, United Nations is at the point ol officially endorsing anti-Semitism . . Such an, argument seems to be always given at the expense of the Palestinian It is common to see a person back out of his argument against an Israeli policy because he is afraid of people like Rabbi Hofmann who are eager to label anti-Semitic." Doesn't this remind us of him with McCarthyism, Communism replaced by anti-Semitism? Finally, Rabbi Hofmann leaves us with the following impression: Yasser Arafat came to the U.N. with a gun while the Zionists came to Palestine with doves and roses' Mirwan al-Taghlchi Successful salute To the Editor.

Grexlon Coordinator, Main Campus International Women's Year T*S — Question of logic “ ’) I •rrt^ Watergate isn’t over yet, Richard Nixon isn’t done with yet, the man who boasted about his wife’s “respectable. Republican cloth coat”- in 195 2 and bought her tapered baguette diamond earrings in 1972 (apparently from campaign funds) is still a problem for Jerry Ford who granted him a “full, free and absolute” pardon. Other men were indicted, he wasn’t; other men went on trial, he didn’t; other men went to jail; not Nixon. The dry-as-dust 277 page wind-up report on Watergate by the Special Prosecution Force under Henry Ruth reveals that Nixon would certainly have been indicted if he hadn’t been pardoned, September 8, a year ago. But now he is accepted in polite society, and his smiling face appears on the cover of Newsweek (October 20 "Nixon’s New Life”). He has cars and guards and nice estates, and can make a million any time he wants to sell interviews or books and some say he will try a political come-back. Nonsense. There are limits. But there is always a minority (say 20 percent) who think that any disgraced public man is badly treated, the Caligula quotient. All the same Nixon is a problem lor Cerald l ord and the more so for the questions that the final Watergate report leaves unanswered. Take, for example, the single episode of Bebe Rebozo. The report of the Senate Frvin Committee, July, 1974, devotes 376 pages to Rebozo. In a letter from Senators Frvin and Baker (R) Tenn., June 6 to Nixon’s counsel James St. dair they assert the existence of “apparent instructions from President Nixon to Mr. Charles (!. Rebozo to raise and maintain funds which, the evidence implies, were expanded on President Nixon’s behalf.” l or example, there were two bundles of 500 crisp serially numbered $100 bills from Howard Hughes; were they actually returned? Rebozo told Herbert Kalmbach, they note, that he gave part of the Hughes money to Nixon’s brothers. Again, when the $4562.38 earring money went to fashionable jeweler Harry Winston in New (apparently from the Florida “Nixon for President Committee” funds) why was the account laundered? The money went through a York “complex four-stage process” the Frvm committee reports, which “concealed the fact that the funds originated from contributions to the 1968 campaign and were ultimately used by Rebozo on behalf of President Nixon.” The hrvin committee ended and hopefully turned over its evidence to the Special Prosecution Force. Now the outgoing special prosecutor reports but it’s an anticlimax. Who obliterated the 18'/i minutes of Nixon-Haldeman tape? The guilty party could only have come from “a very small number of persons” says the report, but that’s all it found, “no prosecution was possible.” How about the Rebozo affair? This is outlined, too. Yes, in a presidential tape of April 17, 1973, it notes, Nixon offered to pay $200,000 to $300,000 for the legal fees of Haldeman and Ehrlichman “from funds to be provided by Rebozo.” But a formal charge? The report repeats monotonously that “evidence would not support an indictment.” Hard to get a stand-up case, perhaps, after the Nixon pardon. Outgoing prosecutor Ruth succeeded by Charles Ruff, primly refuses to speculate. Democracy can only be preserved by an informed public, he says, but he doesn’t inform it, save in some pious platitudes at the end and a quotation from Longfellow. He can’t deal in generalities, he says, so he leaves scores of critical matters up in the air. We wonder what outgoing and incoming prosecutors said to each other? Perhaps, Said Mr. Ruff to Mr. Ruth, “I only want to learn the truth.” Said Mr. Ruth to Mr. Ruff, “You’d better not be over-tough!” On CBS Face the Nation last week Mr. Ruth unbent to the point of criticizing President Ford: “I thought the timing of the pardon was atrocious,” he said. Yes, only a month after the resignation and Just when the Watergate trial was due to start. Even more extraordinary, he felt, the pardon was not conditioned “on an admission of any kind of guilt.” One tries to be fair. I won’t stamp on the pardoned president now he’s down. As for Mr. Ford, my judgment is that he gave the ill-timed pardon out of decency and compassion and a belief that he was helping the country to forget Watergate. Unfortunately it can’t. And in days ahead it is likely to remember the Ford-Nixon relationship. In his Congressional confirmation hearings as vice president House minority leader Ford testified on oath that he had not brought impeachment proceedings against Justice Douglas at the instigation of President Nixon just after the Senate rejected Nixon nominee Clement Haynsworth. Attorney General Mitchell fed Ford the anti-Douglas material from raw FBI files. Mayhe Mr. Ford didn’t take orders directly; maybe he just sensed what the White House wanted. It was minority leader Ford again who blocked the first Congressional attempt to investigate Watergate by Rep. Wright Patman. Still under oath, he told the committee that he did not act here, either at Richard Nixon’s bidding. Maybe not. But there is a Nixon-Haldeman-Dean tape of Sept. 15, 1972 where the three plot to block the Patman inquiry, using “Jerry” as a tool. “President: He’s got to get at this and screw this thing up while he can, right?” Or another quote, “President; Oh, I think Ehrlichman should talk to him (Ford) . . . and should say, ‘Now, God damn it, get the hell over with this . . . he’s got to know it comes from the top.” That’s what the tape says. And when he became Vice President Ford, he always defended his boss: “The weight of the evidence does not justify the President’s impeachment,” he declared just before the committee impeachment vote. Here are two final reasons why 1 think Watergate won’t die in the 1976 campaign. First, Nixon’s grand jury testimony, June 23-24, 1975, under oath, has been taken but is not made public. It may throw light on the Nixon-Ford relationship. Almost certainly Democrats will try to pry it loose. Second: President Nixon tapes of 1972 are still in the hands of White House legal advisor Philip Buchen. Congress says they’re the public’s; Nixon says they’re his. Again, a likely Watergate debate. The Ford-Nixon connection won’t be forgotten.

Page nine �Commentary UB KOREAN STYLE Jm Should gambling in college, professional sports be legal? by Paige Miller Assistant Sports Editor Should betting on collegiate and professional sporting events be legalized? And should some of the money earned this way be used to aid collegiate athletic programs, which have been sinking deeper and deeper into red ink? These are two of the topics which have been the subject of recent debate. . Several states are studytaig the Idea of legalized betting to try and pull in enough, money to balance their budgets. Nevada, and Montana to a leaser extent, already have legalized betting. Even some athletic directors, such as Donald B< Canham of the University of Michigan, have been considering gambling revenue as a source of funds, according to a story in Sunday’s New York Times. “But we’d have to be out of our minds to support it,” Canham said. It has been estimated that $50 billion is earned every year by illegal bookmakers, and that the government should somehow tap this lucrative business. Some of the money would then be returned to the teams involved while the rest would go to the state’s treasury. The dangers In this are easy t see. Betting scandals have shake: * the world of collegiate sports before, and if betting were to become widespread, the danger of such a scandal would grow. It is not hard to imagine an unscrupulous coach manipulating his team to guarantee that a bet he made against them will pay off. It i$ also not hard to imagine some players being paid to shave points especially since this has happened beTore. In fact, after every close contest, there would be cries of “Fix!” and demands that the players involved he investigated. Our law. enforcement agencies do not hate enough manpower to investigate every close game, or even a good portion of them. Probably, they’d wind up investigating none of them, opening the door to further • scandal, v The most popular form of illegal betting, and the form that probably would be instituted if it were legalized, is the parlay card. Bettors would have a choice of many games, and could pick three or more of them, wagering as much as they wanted. ‘There’s no reason this can’t be done legally in a harmless way,” said James Richhie, KARATE % executive director of the National Commission, in the Times article. “We haven’t found any evidence that multiple-game betting cards would be bad for the athletic community. They’re inherently harmless.” Gambling That, however, depends on your definition of harmless.

OTB has also taken who money from people otherwise never would have bet at all, but because it is legal they believe it ris alright. The government, therefore, is taking money out of the economy, and with today’s economic situation, that’s the worse thing to do. . - Money is also too tight for people to lose it in hopes of making a quick fortune. In reality, the odds of placing a winning bet are very small. Losing also becomes a vicious cycle; people lose so they keep betting to recoup their losses. But they continue to lose, and continue to bet. Many fortunes have been lost and many destroyed gambling. THIS ISTHE LAST WEEK TO SIGN UP BEFORE THE PRICE GOES UP! You snooze, you loose!

Harding, backed with the full support the in an attack Governor George Wallace, ordered segregation unit which left one guard stabbed to death and many inmates wounded. Conflicting evidence One wounded inmate was George Chagina Dobbins, IFA chairman. Although he was shot, Dobbins talked with other inmates while being carried out on a stretcher. Dobbins was later pronounced dead on arrival at Mobile General Hospital, and a report issued stated that he died of shotgun wounds. However, an autopsy revealed he died of nine ax-like wounds on the face. Inmates maintain that Dobbins was killed by the prison guard and sheriff that accompanied him in the ambulance. Last April, indicted IFA member Frank X. Moore was found hanging from sheets in his cell. Prison authorities claimed it was suicide, despite clear evidence of rope burns. The second incident took place at Holman prison on March 13, 1974. IFA member Tommy Yukeena Dotson was beaten to death by four guards while being led to the showers. Dotson was stabbed by a guard but was able to grab the knife and kill his assailant. Four inmates were subsequently indicted for allegedly passing the knife to Dotson, even though all four were locked in their cells during the beating.

Akil, an Attica inmate and National Director for Informatlon*and Propaganda of Attica Now, spoke of the parallels between the 1971 Attica prison uprising, and the Atmore-Holman incident. He claimed the same repression that is going on in the Erie County Courthouse against the Attica Brothers is taking place in Alabama. He also charged that it was “not only deplorable but disgusting” that nothing has been done about the deaths of George Jackson, Frank X. Moore, and George Dobbins. “Why does the state seek to bring indictments against prisoners who seek to change things?” asked Akil. What we can do Sixty indictments ranging from first-degree murder to rioting were brought against 45 inmates in relation to the incidents at both Alabama prisons. However, after one state trooper was indicted, all charges were dropped except those against the nine IFA members. Of the trials which started last February, most of which lasted only one or two days, four ended in convictions. One of the convicted inmates was given the death penalty. Three defendants pled guilty to assault charges, and two were found innocent. Throughout the meeting, speakers urged the support of students. “1 ask you after you leave here to take seriously the thought of the Atmore-Holman Brothers because whatever happens to them happens Sources of antagonism The negative attitude of the Alabama prison to us,” one speaker said.

Boyer also announced an enrollment freeze for 20 of the .14 State-operated schools, but this does not affect any of the SUNY centers. The freeze will set back completion ot the Amherst campus another year by delaying work and several projects which would have been started this year. The $24 million which was frozen in was frozen.

There are presently about 50 nuclear plants operating in this country. For the first half of 1975, they generated 8.3 percent of the nation’s electricity at a cost savings of $670 million over conventional coal and oil plants, according to the Atomic Industrial Forum (AIF). This represents a fossil fuel savings of 115 million barrels of oil or 25 million tons of coal. But the AIF is an admittedly pro-nuclear group. Many opponents of nuclear energy question these figures as well as the whole issue of nuclear power. Steven Margolis of the Engineering Department at this University believes nuclear energy is the only practical alternative. “Coal is filthy, it pollutes the air and its mining has a tremendous impact on the environment,” he explained. Water power insufficient Water power, he said, is almost completely utilized, and there are very few sites left. “Even if we literally turned off Niagara Falls, and diverted all the water into the power plant, it would only double its output of electricity,” said Margolis. “It would only be equal to the power produced by four nuclear plants,” he pointed out. Tidal power comes at the wrong time of day, is only located in a few places and isn’t there when needed, he said. Margolis admitted that solar power is an “interesting source” which will play a. role in ways which- can’t be predicted now. He speculated that solar energy will be used to conserve natural gas in heating. However, he explained that as an alternative to nuclear power, solar energy is too unreliable and too dilute. “A nuclear / the State University College at ($9,7 million), and the Stony Brook Health Sciences Center ($9 million).

Plans are to build nuclear plants east of Rochester, particularly near Oswego, Margolis said.

Geothermal energy is more polluting than any other kind, he said, because it spews a whole variety of harmful chemicals into the air. “That leaves nuclear energy as the only alternative,” Margolis stated. Oswego plant Fewer shoppers The freeze will have no direct affect on the planned commerical development on the Amherst Campus. However, John Latona, President of the UBF Corporation (formed to facilitate the commercial development) said one indirect consequence of the freeze may be that fewer people will be using the Amherst campus than originally expected, and, therefore, fewer people will be available to shop at the stores that are planned. This would increase the risk for any store which plans to lease space at Amherst, he said. and this is to a “Another possibility is that certain extent happening already as the price Of public bonds go up, they dry up sources of investment,” Latona pointed out several weeks ago. He explained that as the government goes into debt and its bonds carry higher and higher interest rates, businesses are less inclined to invest in such development and may be tempted to purchase government bonds instead. Last week. City University of New York Chancellor Robert Kibbee announced retrenchment procedures that would cut CUNY's total program by 20 percent, but would save open admissions and the SEEK program. Some observers believe the SUNY construction moratorium and enrollment A ' crisis Waste disposal problem Margolis worked on Navy reactors tor 10 years and as a result, he “became convinced that these power plants can be very precisely and easily controlled and to a large extent, self-controlled." Margolis feels that most of the anti-nuclear forces concentrate on waste disposal which he admits is a problem but “more a management than a technical one.” He said that now, only about 1 percent of the cost of nuclear energy goes to waste disposal or just finding some place to store it. “If we were to spend a nickel instead of a penny out of every dollar we could find a solution,” he said. He feels we should develop a short term recoverable system to store the waste for about 100 years. By then, he said, a more permanent solution could be worked out, such as outer space disposal. The country’s energy needs will double in the next 10 to 15 years and Margolis expects half of the new power plants to be nuclear. Probably 100 new nuclear plants will be built in that time span. Margolis said. and people York business bankers, fell default by New York was imminent, and that New York State would October. “But in the past years, there has more difficulty for everybody, irrespective of how good a risk they are. SUNY bonds are backed by tuition monies, until recently considered a very stable source of income. This year, however, because of uncertainty over New York City and State finances, it is feared that Governor Hugh Carey may take emergency steps and divert tuition monies toward financing other areas of SUNY. been /v r V • 'i y ■ Af ■ 351 A A* Y\ y^ri ft * / ; u /yfe !■ r* X V % agrees that we have no choice but to go nuclear. “At the present rate of consumption, oil will last 30 to 35 years, and coal 300 years. But coal is a very precious source of petro chemicals for medicine and industry and shouldn’t be wasted. Uranium with the breeder reactor will last a few centuries," he said. Solar energy, he feels, can be used as a supplemental source but not as the sole source of energy. Nuclear power plants are necessary for the survival of civilization unless we cut population growth, he said. Chon said that coal burning spreads pollution and wastes. We have the technology to contain and isolate nuclear waste, he noted. “Nobody has been hurt by commercial power plant operation. It is very safe, much safer than chemical energy which has fatalities every year. We haven’t lost a single life or even had a i single serious accident in the last 25 years, Chon said who has been Lennett, David researching nuclear energy for over a year and a half along with several other students, is staunchly opposed to the development of nuclear power. The development of nuclear energy “is a waste of lime, effort, technology and money,” he contends. The nuclear process, he explained, produces all kinds of harmful wastes, including plutonium which is an extremely toxic substance and which remains toxic for half a million years. Very small amounts can cause cancer and it would be easy to make a bomb out of the plutonium once it was isolated. Lennett said. Lennett also explained that spent fuel has to be transported from the reactor to reprocessing plants. He said there is always the danger of an accident which might unleash the harmful wastes onto the ’ -continued on page 4 Monday, 27 October 1975 . The Spectrum .

The emergency cooling system needed to keep the reactor from turning into a ball of molten metal and releasing radiation has never been tested on a large scale. When it was tested on a small scale it failed six times, Lennett said. Near hits He cited several near disasters of nuclear plants. “Two TVA reactors burned when they were checking for an air leak with a candle.” The fire, he added, shut down most of the safety systems. In addition, the dty of Detroit was almost destroyed when the safety system on a reactor failed there, he said. “Just because there has never been a nuclear accident doesn’t mean they’re safe —continued Panthers was recently founded by Paul Haneman. Although a fairly new organization, it has already had a positive effect on senior citizens in the city. Present projects include a position paper on the Equal Rights Amendment, endorsements of certain political candidates, depending on their positions toward the aged. Determining needs also Panthers have The the in distributed leaflets downtown Buffalo area, intended to acquaint the people with the group, as well as a 10-point Bill of Rights for Senior Citizens. A Speakers Bureau was appointed to acquaint the public with the Panther’s philosophy on radio, university in television and classrooms. The Buffalo chapter has no president. All members participate on an equal basis. Gloria Beutner, a member of the Panthers who is presently teaching d class on aging through the American Studies Department at this University, explained that the group’s prime concern is to determine the specific needs of the community. A study on presently is transportation underway because, as Beutner said, “Getting around the city is hard enough for the able, not only the aged or handicapped.” The nationwide organization meanwhile is working toward such goals as a guaranteed income, radical tax reform, guaranteed employment opportunities and a national program of housing. Less concerned with the aged, but of primary concern to the unconditional Panthers, is for all resisters and amnesty deserters of the Vietnam War. The group is also trying to get the government to redistribute money poured into the military towards the country’s citizens in need “We’re a new organization,” said Beutner, “with everyone doing their own thing for one common goal.

Capitol costs are increasing greatly, much faster than for coal, and certain safety features might have to be redesigned which would further increase costs. Mining wastes, until now just piled, might be a hazard and would have to be buried. This, Lennett said, would increase the cost of the fuel which is already in short supply and getting more expensive. Lennett also pointed out that it requires so much electricity to purify the ore the reactor must run for four years just to break even. “It’s nuclear fraud, reactors are not cheap, not at par with fossil fuel now, and they’re just going to get more expensive.

Petitions for union Cut-backs in funds for education, unfulfilled affirmative action programs, and rising costs of living moved employed graduate studchts to begin a union organizing drive a year and a half ago. Last semester, petitions signed by 490 state-funded graduate students at this University were submitted to the Public Employees Relations Board (PERB), requesting that an official campus election be held to determine whether the majority of employed grad students want to be represented by the GSEU for purposes of bargaining with their employer over wages, working conditions and benefits. The SUNY Central Administration submitted an affidavit to PERB arguing that Teaching Assistants and Graduate Assistants have no employee.status, and thus are not entitled to bargain collectively for a work contract. Election needed The GSEU is preparing its own affidavit to describe the work requirements that state-funded graduate students must fulfill to receive their pay. thus arguing that these students arc employees and are entitled to bargain over working conditions. If PERB accepts the GSEU's arguments, an official election will be held on campus for the approximately 950 state-funded graduate students. They will be able to vote for or against the GSEU (or any other union that fulfills the petition requirements), as the legally recognized bargaining unit. A vote of 50 percent plus one is required for legal status, and if this is reached, the union will begin preparations to negotiate a contract with the University.

TOPIC: -CAREER CHOICE HOW AND - □ATE: Tuesday, Oct. 28th — TIME: 7:30p.m. PLACE: M.F.A.C. Refreshments Will Be Served New food stam s proposal food stamp President Ford’s proposed legislation, if passed by Congress, will probably not have any direct effect on the eligibility of students to receive food stamps. The Ford proposal would deny food stamps to a family of four whose income exceeds $6250 a year, if all of its members are under 60 years of age. The family would be allowed to earn $6550 a year and still receive food stamps if one of its members was 60 years old or over. This income level is based on the government’s official poverty level which is $5050 a year. The administration proposal allows $100 a month for expenses, plus another $25 a month if there is a senior citizen in the home. Recipients would be required to spend 30 percent of their income for the food stamps, after making the $100 monthly deduction. In presenting the proposal to the Senate, Secretary of Agriculture Earl L. Butz claimed it would save the government $1.2 billion a year. In August, approximately 18.8 million people were receiving food stamps at an annual cost of $5.2 billion. Butz' benchmark “We believe the poverty line is an appropriate benchmark for eligibility because it has been developed and used to denote that segment of the population whose income is not enough to provide an adequate standard of living,” But/ said. The Ccnsus'Bureau estimates that 12 percent of those currently receiving food stamps have gross incomes which exceed $6000. Students who are claimed as tax deductions by their parents may be eligible for the stamps only if their parents are eligible. The eligibility of those students who arc financially independent will be determined on the basis of their income and expenses. Tuition costs, grants-in-aid, and loans are considered in the evaluation. The maximum net income allowed for a family of one by the Food Stamp Office is $215 a month. Students are not treated any differently than other applicants for food stamps, although several years ago they were. The fact that a student’s parents are not receiving food stamps does not mean that he or she cannot get them. If a family meet the requirements, a student may receive food stamps even if the parents elect not to take them. Weekend dental clinic opens J with low cost qualify dental care I by Charles Greenberg S/miniin Slajt Writer L.ast weekend marked the opening of a Saturday morning dental clinic for students. The project is co-sponsored' by the School of Dentistry and Sub-Board s Health Care Division. The New program will- run 23 weeks, and is an extension of the regular weekday clinic operated by the Dental School. Gerard Wiec/.kowski, assistant professor of Operative Dentistry, explained that the clinic will be staffed by advanced dental students, under the supervision of faculty members from the school. The dental students who will be involved “feel a sense of obligation to their fellow students,” according to W.N. Fagans, Dean of the School of Dentistry. The students are donating their own time, Fagans said. Student patients wishing to use the Saturday clinic are examined during the week to determine what treatments will be necessary. Special problems, such as periodontal work, will not be treated on Saturday, since the objective of the program is to handle only “routine dental work.” One of 30 The project was developed two years ago, said George Ferguson, chairman of the Operative Dentistry Department. The Urban Center and the Educational'Opportunity Program (EOP) urged the dental students to recognize their “social responsibility,” and volunteer for the program. There is currently a “large pool of students who are unavailable for dental treatment during the week, Fagans explained, necessitating the weekend clinic. There has been a preventative and diagnostic dental center operated by the University as part of the Student Health Care Program for the past nine years. However, the center provided only limited care, which in most cases consisted of simple cleaning of the patient’s teeth. But Ferguson said there are only about 30 such programs on college campuses throughout the country, and that the center here is one of the most sophisticated. A1 Campagna, director of the Health Care Division, said dental care was an area untouched by the student health program until last year, and that Sub-Board was exploring the possibilities of aiding students with their dental needs even then. Survey Last April, Campagna and Charles Gavarick, associate professor in the Department of Behavioral and Related Sciences, headed a survey on student attitudes toward dental health. Their findings indicated a “very positive” desire for preventative services on campus, Campagna said. The Health Care Division approached Ferguson to see if the Dental School was interested, whereupon the school formulated the proposal for the Saturday morning clinic. The Health Care Division will provide the funds for the project on a trial basis until the end of the current academic year, at which time an evaluation of the program will be presented by the Dental School staff. The evaluation will form the basis for the program’s future. “We are not trying to capture these patients, and we are not trying to comer the student market. All of these patients have the option to seek desired care elsewhere. What we are trying to do is aid a particular segment of the University population,” Fagans stressed. Monday, 27 October 1975 The Spectrum . Paqe five �Editorial An end in sight? The State University (SUNY) Board of Trustees, in its decision to freeze construction funds on many of the state-operated campuses, is taking a conservative, "wait and see" stance. Although New York City's poor financial state has put a damper on the sale of state construction bonds. SUNY still has $60 million in reserve above and beyond the tuition monies needed to back the sale of its bonds. What this means is that the money is there to continue progress on the Amherst campus as scheduled. However, the Trustees appear to be holding back to see if the bond market improves. One result of the construction moratorium is that the signing of any contracts for new projects will be delayed for up to a year. Actions like these, which have continually set back the development in Amherst, are apparently costing the state taxpayers more money in the long run. In this period of ever rising prices, the longer SUNY stalls, the more expensive the Amherst facilities become and the greater the danger that they will be scaled down so much that they will *1 not adequately meet the needs of a University this size. We have seen this happen a number of times, most recently with the SUNY Construction Fund's ongoing cutbacks in the proposed Amherst gym. Despite any steps it has taken thusfar, SUNY has reaffirmed its commitment to complete the Amherst campus. It goes without saying that considering the millions of dollars already invested, this extensive construction project remains the State University's number one priority Yet the longer SUNY puts off signing contracts, the steeper those contract costs become. We say let's make SUNY realize its commitment and get the Amherst campus finished Editor’s Note: In a September 24, 1975 meeting between Women’s Studies College (WSC) and the administration, President Robert Ketter stated that the WSC charter would be completed upon the inclusion of a statement of WSC’s policy of non-discrimination. On October 15, ■WSC submitted its charter with the following statement, "Women’s Studies College is a of program committed to a policy non-discrimination. WSC does not unlawfully discriminate on the grounds of race, color, creed, sex or national origins." The following is a letter from Acting Academic Affairs Vice President Robert Fisk and Executive Vice President Albert Somit in response to WSC’s revised charter, as well as WSC’s position on Fisk and Somit’s letter of October 22, 1975. In considering the charter revision recently submitted by WSC, we have necessarily been mindful of two points: 1) the practice of WSC in offering courses which exclude students on the ha<jg of sex; and 2) the implicit claim by the College that it has the authority to decide for itself whether its admissions practices conform with University policy. In view of these two points, it our judgment that the revised charter, which contains the qualifying statement that WSC will not practice “unlawful” discrimination, creates an unacceptably ambiguity regarding the willingness of the College to adhere to the educational policy a policy which is of this University non-exclusionary on the basis of sex, race, color, creed or national origin. In fact, given the above-mentioned ambiguity, approval of the charter, as presently revised, could be construed to mean that this administration condones such the exclusionary practices and/or accepts College’s claim to determine for itself the validity of those practices. For these reasons, the charter is not accepted as revised. We very much hope that the College will submit a revised charter which can be approved. As indicated previously, this can be readily accomplished by.an unqualified statement similar to that displayed at the beginning of all i.e., “No person, in University bulletins whatever relationship with WSC of SUNYAB, shall be subject to discrimination on the grounds of race, color, creed, sex or national origin.” This declaration will require that exclusionary course descriptions and practices be altered to conform to the announced University policy. If any courses offered by WSC are available for second semester registration, an acceptable charter must be submitted to President Ketter by no later than Friday, October 31, 1975. If this is not done, WSC courses will be withdrawn from the registration files, and financial support for the College will be terminated at the close of the • — - present semester. We feel* that the request being made of the College is entirely reasonable and reiterate our hope that the College will submit a revised charter which can be accepted. In its justifications for rejecting Women’s charter, College’s revised the Studies administration continues its practice of bad faith towards WSC. The administration lays out new rules, invokes another arbitrary deadline, and threatens the withdrawal of financial support to To the Editor.

In August of 1975, the administration imposed a deadline of January 1, 1976 for the termination of WSC’s five all-women's classes, and a deadline of October 15, 1975 for the revision of its charter. On October 22, 1975, the co-ordinators received a memorandum rejecting the revised charter and imposed a new deadline of October 31 for the revision of the charter. This deadline is totally arbitrary as it has no bearing on registration (registration begins much later). The unwarranted harassment of WSC is by the administration’s continued confusion of the issues of the charter and the selective use of all-women’s classes. When the administration raised the issue of all-women’s classes, it formerly claimed that these classes were in violation of Title IX. It has now shifted its position, and is basing its arguments .on an alleged "University policy” of “non-exclusion.” (The issue of all-women’s classes is not one of exclusion, but one of discrimination. The University does in fact maintain a policy and practice of exclusion through the existence of specific majors and prerequisites for admittance to, certain courses. Therefore, the issue of all-women’s courses must be viewed as one of discrimination. WSC maintains that the selective usage of all-women’s classes is justifiable Affirmative Action to redress the effects of past discrimination against women.) Before October 22, the administration was concerned with Title IX rules and regulations. Now it has notably dropped all reference to anti-discrimination legislation and substitute “University policy.” WSC’s anti-discrimination statement is in contradiction to neither Title IX, nor “University policy.” Further, there is no unacceptable ambiguity in the word “unlawful.” The University’s objection to this word is an untenable justification for its rejection of the charter. Women’s Studies maintains it has met the administration’s conditions for the charter by including a statement affirming WSC’s policy of non-discrimination. In its charges of October 22, the administration continues to ignore the history of both our charter and all-women’s classes. Women’s Studies has never claimed -to determine for itself the validity of the selective use of all-women’s classes. Historically, this charge can be proven false. During chartering, the question was whether WSC’s all women classes conformed to the “educational, policy of this University.” WSC did not decide this by itself. We argued our position publicly with the administration, marshalled student support and finally, President Ketter in his January 3, 1975, approved the selective use of all-women’s classes. The administration now moves to an even more insubstantial position and attempts to fortify it with distortion. WSC maintains its right to the selective use of all-women’s classes. We negotiated, and won their approval. The selective use of all-women’s is in complete accord with classes anti-discrimination legislation. In view of the administration’s new deadline and altered position, WSC is calling for a meeting between its lawyers and President Ketter to once again clarify the issues and remove an arbitrary deadline. WSC would remind people to bring in their petitions in preparation foe its November 5 demonstrated again rally. Not only doctors in mind once and for all . Women's Studies College. . . .

In previous years, when the club called itself the Undergraduate Medical Society (UMS), there was such an attitude. The name of the organization was changed in order to give the other health professions equal billing. Whereas it is true that most of our members are seeking admission to medical school, the club exists to enlighten people about all health professional fields. We present these fields not as alternatives “for those students who cannot meet the stringent admission standards for medical school” but as other professions which the student can carefully and critically review before deciding on a particular career choice. Many people who enter college are because medicine is the most commonly known health profession. These people often go through college blindly wanting to become MD’s when in fact they may prefer becoming optometrists or podiatrists instead, providing they have a knowledge of what these fields involve. Providing this knowledge is the rntyor purpose of the club. Regarding the two paragraphs on what the AM A said with respect to" the percentages of “A” and “C” students recently accepted into medical school, 1 don’t know where you got those statistics but, right or wrong, they were presented misleadingly. It is becoming more and more difficult each year to get into medical school, and while an absolute GPA for admissions cannot be given, it should be realized that students who are considered competitive usually have at least a 3.5 or better overall CUM and a similar CUM in the sciences. It is true that it is sometimes easier to get into the other health professional schools than it is to get into medical school, but here too it should be realized that the grade point averages necessary to be considered competitive are also on the rise as each year goes by. In that applying to a health professional school is an expensive proposition, I would tell “C” students to look realistically at their chance before applying, for in all likelihood, they will not gain admission to a health professional school. Finally, a comment on the reporting of this I was said to have given the above article. Whereas AMA statistics, 1 in fact never said a word about them. I don’t know where the reporter got his facts, but I feel he was totally unjustified in presenting them as quotes from me when they were not. I hope, with regard to this matter, that you exercise more care in the future and not stick words in people’s mouths. Jejfi.evv President of APII OS �Save the Guest Opinion wildlife To the Editor.

And this stockpile is always pood for poisoning democracy“ by Ronald Eskin I believe that President Robert Ketter’s callous message (Reporter Sept. 11) to the University earlier this year, coupled with his administration's harassment of the Women’s Studies College, has once again called our attention to the really crucial problems which riddle this University. In both instances, his singlemindedness has effectively displayed the man’s lack of creativity and precision. The present administration has, by its performance, proven itself to be incapable of performing the duties necessary to promote the wholesome development of a large, urban university. Aside from the political differences which happily separate me from Ketter, I register my objection to him purely on the grounds of his narrow and intolerant spirit. It is apparent to me that his objections to the colleges were clearly basic to his fundamental assumptions of education. In his statement of September II, he described the educational process as a series of knowledge transmissions. In Ketter’s mind, the educated person is the one who has had his fact innoculations: the encyclopedic mind. His utter insensitivity to the personal development of human beings was further demonstrated by his reproach of “general education” which attempts to develop the whole person. The courses which he proposes would be the ones in which fact clusters, not necessarily involving significant facts, are conveyed. His assumption that the only true subject for education is testable knowledge is almost pitifully sophomoric. If such were the case, then college is no more than four more years of high school. Nowhere does he attempt to define how education should go about affecting people. They are not affected, in Ketter’s imaginary black box, they are processed. The net gains which are produced by school are those which result in the increasing accumulation of knowledge. Like any good processer, the President feejs obliged only to believe in those changes which are in some way apparent to him: reproducable tests. , On the Women’s Studies College issue, the entire administration has sought to hide its antipathy to that institution behind a legislative enactment. Though 1 profess no expertise in the legal matters, I defer to the authority of Professor Grace Blumberg, the law school’s expert in the area of sex discrimination. She concluded in one issue of The Spectrum that the enactment didn't necessarily prohibit the type of classes that the administration claimed it did. How can one help but infer that Ketter’s eager t «> p use of the law was motivated to a large part by his well-publicized distaste for the colleges? Not only is Ketter intolerant, but, due to the twisted structure of this University, he is practically omnipotent as well. He refers to the period of student involvement as one of self flagellation on the part of universities. This University is structured so that there is no student input that binds. Ketter. The suspended students who were involved in Hayes Hall can attest to that. Even more shocking, there is no faculty body'which has power to supersede the President’s decisions. ’Die flaws in such a structure would never have become evident had there not been such an abusive and offensive navigator at its helm. This letter does not grow out of trenchant dislike for administrators as a group. To the contrary, I wish to point to comparable institutions like the University of Michigan and the University of Pittsburgh. In those places the faculty and students comfortably share power with the administration. Faculty councils make policy and often contain 30 percent student representation on them. I have personally had extensive experience with administrators at the University of Pittsburgh on many levels of policy,' and found them to be as receptive to student input as Ketter is resistant to it. They were far more flexible, creative in their programs and progressive in their views toward education than is our President. The really key difference between the other institutions and this one is that in those places they maintain a degree of respect for student intellectual competence. Here, we are dismissed as children whose needs are best tended by a paternal authority (e.g. Drs. Lorenzetti and Ziggelkow’s performance in the Haas Lounge last Aprik there they discussed why they would not allow the S.A. vote money to send buses to the Attica rally in Albany). this broad range of issues, Along documented by the statements and actions of the Ketter administration, ,1 am compelled to conclude that the University’s need for administrative talent is inadequately satisfied by those who possess that authority now. We have tolerated mediocrity far too long already. However, the crux of the problem here transcend’s Ketter’s inadequacies. He typifies the dangers incumbent in concentrating authority in any administration. Administrators should only administer. The faculty and students must make policy as they do at other schools. Let me suggest to the faculty that this is the time to organize themselves, and to resist the intimidation which no doubt will follow such organization. Send it back something else To the h'ditor. During this period of intense debate over the caliber of the Food Service programs, I wish to relate an incident which happened to me this past Thursday (Oclober 23). The menu at (loodyear that day included pizza. I committed the error of choosing this “atrocity of the palate.” This so-called pizza would have made a dog's stomach turn. In total disgust, I took the pizza and proceeded back to the cafeteria counter where I returned the uneaten portion. I stated that the pizza wasn't fit for human consumption and demanded Constant complaining about the food is not going to get a point across. The best way to let the one feels about his or her meal is by returning it when it is not liked. We are paying good money for this service, and we have the right to object to a meal when it is unsatisfactory. If this incident ever occurred in a restaurant, I’m sure that any same individual would refuse the meal. The same attitude should be applied to our present situation at this University.

The tournament’s scoring system awarded one point to each team for each individual match won, but when Buffalo, Buffalo State and Canisius wound up with seven points each (Niagara had six), the total number of games won was used as a tiebreaker. That method proved that the competition was very close. State had won 84 games, Buffalo 83 and Canisius 81. — Correction Wednesday s The Buffalo soccer coach Sal Esposito was incorrectly quoted in ball, giving the the Spectrum as saying, “Our guys were playing the man’s feet instead of said was that the impression that Buffalo was being unduly rough. What Esposito actually Buffalo’s players.

Buffalo’s second singles player Irene Van Dyke, was matched against the Bengals Janice Warren. Van Dyke trailed 6-2 at one point, but came back to make the score 6—5. Unknown to the two players, they would, in effect, decide the championship. With their teammates cheering them on, the crucial twelfth game went to deuce about 10 times, before Warren eked out the win. The remaining two games were split, to give Warren and Buffalo State the championship The Bengals also needed one other last round victory to propel them to the championship. Their first doubles team of Helen Findlay April and Kathy Meany outplayed Buffalo’s duo of Mary Jo Scire and Zolezer. Scire had sprained her left ankle last weekend at the New York State Championships and was limping visibly throughout the match. “1 was aware of it,” she said. “It limited my mobility at the net, but there’s no excuse on account of the ankle. Instead, Scire blamed unforced errors by her and her partner for the loss. “If our first doubles team had won,” said Buffalo coach Betty Dimmick, “we would have won. But you can’t blame it on one match. We had chances to win all down the line.” Loss of DeFalco felt According to Dimmick, the Bulls were also hurting because of the absence of their top player, Diane DeFalso. “Diane was in a slump and decided to take herself out of the lineup,” Dimmick explained. That was on October 11, when the tournament began. Then rain came after just a few games were played, and the remainder of the match was rescheduled for last Wednesday. Unfortunately for Buffalo, by the time the match resumed, DeFalco had ended her slump with a good performance at the New York State Championships, but since the lineups had been set, DeFalco could not play. Elaine Tubinis moved up to the number one spot and contributed 8-1 and 8-2 victories, but what Buffalo gained at the top was offset by their loss in depth Overall, Dimmick was happy with her team’s performance. The Bulls have only two girls back from last year’s team, and they figure to improve. “It was a good experience for them,” Dimmick observed. “I think they’re learning.” by Joy Clark In their worse effort this season, the volleyball Bulls were defeated by Oswego, three games in a row, in the best three out of five match. The loss was Buffalo’s first after seven wins. All the games followed the same pattern. Buffalo started strong and then stalled later in the game. “Every time we’d get going, we’d stop,” said senior Joanne Wroblewski. “We couldn’t win the last four points.” Buffalo played well in the first game and was leading 9-3 when Oswego scored two points and Buffalo fell apart. Because the game was longer than average, coach Peter Weinreich used up his allotted could no longer platoon number of his key player. Shelly Kulp, who because ofher short height, hasn’t played at the net all year, was forced to play that position during the crucial last two minutes of the game. The defense also suffered from apparent confusion as to where each player should be. Oswego held the Bulls scoreless in the last seven serves and scored five points in the last 40 seconds to win the game. (If no team has won after eight minutes of play, the team with the most points wins.)

The Bulls couldn’t manage score the winning point, and Oswego won the second game, 16-14. Buffalo opened the third game by winning eleven quick points, including six brilliantly served by Wroblcwski, before their serving and defense failed them entirely. Oswego then tallied twelve points in a row to win the shortest game of the night, and take the match. “We lost it on serves,” said Weinrcich. He cited Buffalo’s 20 serving errors (serves which are cither hit into or under the net, or that go out of bounds) as a major factor in the loss. He said he would have felt comfortable with about six serving errors in three games. He also commented that Oswego is the first strong team Buffalo has played this year. “They’re the first team we’ve played with consistent hitting and good blocking,” Wcinreich said. Wroblewski didn’t feel as though she was outplayed. “They weren’t better than us,” she stated. “Maybe we outplayed ourselves.” Junior Marilyn Dellwardt added, “They always played as a team. We were sloppy; we defeated ourselves.” Passport/Application Photos John Waters began if (JUAB when she served five straight points.

An ETS study revealed that there is a direct, continuous family correlation between income and SAT scores. High school seniors from the upper class have higher median board scores than seniors from middle income families, who in turn, have higher median scores than those from lower income families. “The correlation is consistent for seven categories of family income,” asserted Brill. Further studies of statistics show that Northeastern students score the highest on the tests, Southern students score the lowest, males do better than females on the math section of the SAT, and whites have higher median scores than non-whites. Although the ETS would not reveal the exact figures, Brill was able to find a study that showed a Banesh Hoffman, a professor at Queens College, is one such critic. “Our misplaced confidence in mass testing can have dangerous consequences, not only to the quality of our education, but to the psychological strength and vitality of the nation.” Hoffman insists that exams do not really measure what they claim to be testing. Rather, they test one’s ability to “fathom what is in the mind of the examiner.” are worded “Questions ambiguously,” adds Professor Lawrence Plotkin of the City University of New York. “They are geared to penalize the profound thinker. God help the kid who stops to muse over a question, or who sees a subtlety.” Hoffman cited one illustration of a question which caught an knowledgeable exceptionally student in a particular high school. The question reads as follows: Find the misspelled word. (I) cartons (2) altogether (3) possibilities (4) intensionally (5) none wrong. According to the answer key, the best answer is No. 4. However, it is not the correct answer. The a is “intensionally” word frequently used term in Logic and Semantics. Most of the students in this high school, who were enrolled in a special senior Semantics course, were familiar with the word “intensionally,” and chose No. 5 as their response. The few members of the class that did select No. 4 guessed correctly that the author had never heard Of Hoffman “intensionally.” concluded that this question is a perfect example that a high test score may be determined by intuition, rather than actual knowledge. • take the tests.” Yourman said that if ETS doesn’t admit to this, it is only because it, is a business. “They [ETS officials] have high paying jobs and they want to keep them.” ' Scores meaningless “Even the ETS admits that aptitude and achievement cannot be pleasured in terms nearly as specific as the score recorded,” Brill wrote.

ETS Executive Director of College Boards, said there is also a ope ip six chance that a student who scores 700 one day, could score substantially - gap of 133 points (33 percent) between the median scores of black and white males on the Law Board scores. Test experts criticize the ETS, saying, “the tests look for values and acquired skills consistent with the mainstream of American upper and upper middle classes, and nqt for aptitude on inborn abilities.” Plotkin actually accuses the ETS of operating tests which discriminate against blacks, poor people, Chicanos and other minorities.

As Solomon puts it, “Our tests predict how a student will do what his grades However, Solomon be.” will a student is “If admits, that educationally deprived, means his grades won’t be as high when he gets to law school or college. Our tests only reflect no that. We are making discrimination on purpose.” President William ETS - Turnbull defends ETS; “Criticizing us on that basis is like criticizing the Toledo Scale Company because some people are fat." ETS has reacted to charges of cultural bias since 1970 by including “minority oriented” the in reading passages comprehension sections of the SAT. Although there has been extensive criticism of the SAT’s, many admissions officials and historians still believe in them. “Many selective colleges believe strongly in the validity of SAT scores, as a gauge or common standard,” asserted Ravitch. Most admissions officials today, according to Ravitch, agree that there are limitations to SAT scores. A survey of admissions officials across the nation indicate that many institutions have devised their own predictive validity index, in which SAT scores, grade point averages, and personal qualities, along with the quality of the high school are combined. In program, addition, Ravitch said, “the civil rights movement and the student upheavals of the 1960’s have caused colleges to seek more diversified student bodies. “Admission officials have used SAT scores to work for the student applicant, rather than against him,” claims Cliff Sjogren, Director of Admissions at the University of Michigan. “Low are as interpreted scores ambiguous, possibly the result of illness, low income background, or whatever. Most college officials seem to be taking scores less seriously, although they still of a standard provide measurement for students from school backgrounds of high qualities.” Sjogren varying believes that the SAT’s offer students from remote or inferior high schools a chance to qualify for selective schools. Fred Hargadon, Dean of Admissions at Stanford University, points out in defense of the SAT that if the college boards were abolished, “selective colleges would go right back to picking their students from the top private and public schools, simply because they are familiar curriculum and with the background of these schools. The use of tests puts students from non-affluent high schools into the candidate pool, from which they were previously excluded.” Ravitch also believes that tests prove specially helpful in cases . —continued on page 2— �Amherst land Correction In Wednesday’s issue of The Spectrum, it was incorrectly reported that a carnival, sponsored by College H to benefit die United Way, would be held Hi unday, October 23.

The American Academy of Arts and Letters cited her as a creative writer in 1946, and she was awarded Guggenheim Fellowships in 1946 and 1947 for creative writing. In 1950 she became the first black woman writer to receive a Pulitzer Prize. In 1968 Brooks succeeded the late Carl Sandburg as Poet Laureate of Illinois. Currently she teaches poetry workshops in the Chicago area and manages The Black Position, a poetry magazine. Her writings include many volumes of poetry, an autobiography, a novel, and a volume of poetry for children (Aloneness). Among her most recent work: Family Pictures (1970) and Beckonings (1975). the Conference Theater Monday night. In an hour’s time the deft and lively poet dispelled the shadow altogether. Plain, new and real She wondered outloud if Carl Sandburg, her predessessor as Illinois’ Poet Laureate, wasn’t perhaps “whirling a few times wherever it was he went” at the sight of the poet to follow him in that honor (this tiny, soft-spoken black lady). After reading a few of Sandburg’s tentative definitions of poetry (he devised 38), Brooks maintained she had only one; “Poetry is life distilled.” To prove it, she went on to read eighteen poems of varying length, but all characterized by sharply focused imagery from everyday life and by words and rhythms of words from everyday life. It was not complex or difficult poetry, it was not obscure, it was not shuttingly private, it was plain, new and real. But at the sametime Brooks insisted on real language and real places, she argued for the survival of artistic sentiment: Does man love art? Man visits art. to stay at hofne The nice beer ready. And it is easier Tavern readings In her latest volume of poems, Beckonings (1975), Brooks (she says) makes a “new attempt” to make poetry attractive to people who either think it’s all bunk, or who respect it and ignore it. This new attempt, as the poems within honors illustrate, Be ckonings familiar diction and acts upon the There was even an abortion poem.

It is sung by a black woman whose man is being lynched by a White mob for “raping” a white woman (who actually encouraged his favors). The man “couldn’t abide dark meat” and “grew up with bright skins on the brain.” You got what you wanted for dinner But brother you paid the bill. You had it coming surety You had it coming surely , First black woman to win a Pulitzer Prize On being banned According to Brooks, there was “consternation” at Harpers when she first tried to get this published (though it finally was) only the first of a number of minor controversies. Currently “We Real Cool” is banned in one Nebraska - SUNY construction, enrollment frozen “jazz” was (because interpreted as a sexual term) and a county nice little poem, ‘The Preacher Ruminates Behind the Sermon,” is banned in West Virginia. It must be lonely to be God, the preacher muses. No one will ever “buy him a coke, buy him a beer, pooh pooh his politics.” There was a riot poem from her volume Riot picturing a comic strip white liberal (“John Cabot!”) confronted with an angry mob of ghetto rioters: They were “black and bad and not , detainable, not discreet . . Lord, forgive these niggers . . .” One poem, “Alive in the Ice . an Fire,” included “It is the embarrassing first line which is morning of our love” the first line in a Rod McKuen and — — poem from Listening to the Warm. But Brooks redeemed it as a work of art by beginning it differently. This poem contained what for Brooks is a familiar sentiment: imagery and after rude ways to convey it. From “Boy Breaking Glass,” a youth “whose broken window is a cry of art,” shouts: “I shall create!/If not a note, a hole.” There are slyer ways to express the same undercurrents, as when Brooks remembers the way she felt as a young girl (“A Song in about Backyard”) the the prostitutes in the neighborhood; But I say it’s fine, Honest I do. I’d like to be a bad woman too. Gwendolyn Brooks seems to insist that poetry grpws out of tension and crisis, is recollected in leisure and imparts calm and recognition. * * � • At a reception for Brooks in the Black Student Union after the reading, the tiny Poet Laureate of Illinois faded naturally back into the shadow cast by her own work and by the effect of her clear, witty pulpit-style reading.

Because the world is at our window — - 1975 NATIONAL BOOK AWARD WINNER State University (SUNY) Chancellor Ernest Boyer announced yesterday a freeze on new construction and enrollment on most State-operated campuses. This means that at this University, $24 million in construction funds for projects scheduled to begin this year on the Amherst Campus have been reappropriated to next year’s budget. The buildings include a service warehouse ($5.3 million), the third building in a planned Engineering complex ($6.9 million), and a biology greenhouse ($.51 million). The rest of the $24 million was intended for road utility and landscaping projects. The enrollment freeze will have little impact because the University has already realized its projected enrollment of 25,000 for “Harrowing, while-knuckled suspense!”™ 3 kilos of pure heroin from war-torn Vietnam 3 burnt-out people in drug-torn California ... make an explosive connection on a headlong chase through the dark side of America in the savage 70's. ... 1980. This year, 27,000 students are enrolled. The University has also released new requests for construction in the 1977-78 budget, which, coincidentally, also total about $24 million. The requests include a music and chamber hall, an educational communications center, and the East and West Lecture Hall Centers. The construction halt and enrollment freeze were imposed by the SUMY Board of Trustees as part of a five-year consolidation program intended to modify SUNY growth, according to a statement released by the Chancellor’s office yesterday. However, it is believed that part of the reason for the constnwtion halt is the Housing Finance Association’s difficulty in selling State University Construction Fund bonds. Boyer said he is not acting under instructions from Governor Carey or the state Budget office. He said the curb in expansion of the State University indicates a more conservative outlook for the day-to-day operating policies as well. “Aworkofart!” -BOSTON GLOBS Now only $1.95 wherever paperbacks are sold <£B> Ballantine Books Friday, 24 October 1975 The Spectrum . .

Staff Writer as the is regarded primary purpose of our prison systems, yet Robert Martinson, a sociologist from City College in New York and the leader of a study on the subject, has concluded that this ideal is seldom achieved with any of the methods presently employed. In 1967, three prominent educators, including Martinson, were appointed by a New York State planning committee to study the success rate of rehabilitation programs in New York’s prisons. “We didn’t find any rehabilitation programs that work, but it appears that if you put young offenders On probation, at least they won’t do worse,” Martinson said. The study allegedly angered the New York Corrections Department, and the State originally refused to release the completed study. After years of court battles. New York State has finally agreed to allow publication of Martinson’s study, and it will soon be available to the public. Martinson also wrote a condensed version of the study for The Public Interest .Rehabilitation magazine. The study took three years to complete,; and examined every type of rehabilitation program on which the group could find] data. Everything from group counseling to> imprisonment (on the theory that this; punishment was a form of treatment) was studied. Not studied were relatively new programs such as work release and 1 methadone maintenance, because research 1 on these was not available. One penal policy which Martinson believes must be eliminated is the j indeterminate sentence, which leaves great discretion in the hands of parole boards, j Martinson said, “The idea was, if you could ' treat people, you wouldn’t want to keep, them a day after they were well. Now, it if turns out the treatment doesn’t have much of an effect, what’s the purpose of keeping flawed in that it overlooks indeed denies them on indeterminate sentence?” @ both the normality of crime in society and the personal normality of a very large Personal normality proportion of offenders, criminals who are The idea that rehabilitation is not merely responding to the facts and flawed, but that our programs just aren’t conditions of our society.” good enough and must be improved, was Instead of harsher penalties, Martinson quickly disgarded by Martinson.

In the article, Martinson explains the difficulty encountered in finding reliable research in the area of rehabilitation. Two hundred and thirty one studies, from all over the world, were finally accepted as the NOW SHOWING but by punishing more of the offenders. Punishment as a deterrent to crime is important, he feels. Several criminologists are using this study to argue that what our criminal justice system needs is harsher penalties and greater punishment, rather than an emphasis on rehabilitation. Martinson completely disagrees. He says that “the study provides no evidence that getting tough or vicious or nasty with criminal offenders will reduce crime.” Martinson points out that there might be rehabilitation programs which are working, but the available research is “so bad” that it is impossible to tell. , NYPIRG probes test service by Anthony Schmitz Special to The Spectrum (CPS) - Claiming that students are “captive figures that show range of accuracy on the Scholastic Aptitude verbal test to be 30 points above and below the score reported. “This means,” NYPIRG spokespersons state, “that two students of the same ‘aptitude’ could get scores 60 points apart." If misuse and over-reliance on ETS test scores by university admissions offices can be shown, NYPIRG hopes to draft “corrective legislation, ranging from a consumer’s warning of the test’s validity stamped on the test to a ban of the tests until their validity could be proven. In the past, inquiries into ETS have fared poorly. A study of ETS in 1973 by the Washington Youth Project floundered and failed to produce a consumers” of college admissions tests, the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) launched an investigation in October of the firm responsible for tests ranging from the Scholastic Aptitude Test to the Law School Admissions Test. Educational Testing Service (ETS) “is accountable to no one,” NYPIRG spokespersons claim. It “is a huge mind control industry. Millions of students and other citizens are tested by ETS each year,” yet “students have no control over ETS and neither do the schools which require the tests,” report.

A great deal of interest was also evident during last week’s open house at the College, she said. President Robert Ketter directed the College in a letter Wednesday to either allow men access to all-women courses or have them abolished by January of next year. WSC already met an October 15 deadline to include in its charter a clause guaranteeing that it will not engage in discriminatory practices. “We’ve done everything we were told to do,” Tiger asserted. “There’s no reason why our charter shouldn’t be approved.” Despite the approval of the charter last January by President Robert' Ketter and a promised eighteen-month period before it would be reviewed again, WSC was given until August 15 this summer to all-women classes.

Petitions are being circulated demanding that the deadline be lifted, a year of self-evaluation be allowed before changes of policy are required, (as specified by Title IX guidelines), that the College be given the opportunity to demonstrate that all-women classes are not discriminatory, and all-women classes “proved educationally valid as such be allowed to continue.” The five all-women classes were approved to the Division of Undergraduate Education last spring. At the time he approved the College's charter, Ketter said he accepted “in principle” the possibility that classes for one sex only could be justified academically. About 250 people were at the rally, and most of them took petitions Tiger said. “They should be coming in gradually, until November 5.” She noted that last year, the College collected approximately 4000 signatures in only five days. Information about the College’s crisis and extra petitions have made available to women’s organizations around the country “to educate people about the situation,” Tiger said.

A counseling service attuned to veterans’ financial, academic and personal problems will now be available and extended information services include for the first time current veterans’ legislation and information on discharge upgrading. VA has also organized an outreach program to of their eligibility for contact veterans benefits. The VA office has also expanded its staff to include Joseph Krakowiak, associate coordinator for Veteran Affairs, and Frank Cislo, a full-time veteran counselor Two administration representatives and some additional office staff have also been added. In the past the VA office was understaffed and inevitably spent most of its time processing applications for benefits, said Ed Serba, the office’s Outreach Officer. Now, services and personnel may be expanded because of the reinstatement of the Veteran Cost Instruction (VCI) grant by Congress.

The Veteran’s Affairs office is suggesting an emergency loan for these students and book deferments for all veterans. As of now, a student with financial problems must turn to outside institutions for loans. A Veteran's Educational Loan is extremely hard to get. Serba said the purpose of the outreach service was to “provide the veteran with the program that best fits his needs." As part of the outreach drive. VA is planning a series of seminars to acquaint veterans with VA benefits and to create an where veterans can atmosphere speak to from businesses and representatives colleges and to other veterans. A representative from the National Alliance of Businesssmen will speak October 29 about employment opportunities, resumes, interviews and job placement. Despite the new services offered to veterans here, Serba feels that veterans’ services are on the decline nationally. He said the cutbacks in Adult Education, BOCES, and in BISC (Business Industrial Services Center) have hurt veterans and that vocational training under VA laws has been virtually wiped out. He cautioned that the new services here are in danger of ending next year when the VC1 grant must go to Congress for renewal. f* I /ample 1 UUAB Fine Arts Film Committee Friday, Oct. 24th said Dwane Moore, construction coordinator for Facilities Planning.

Albany doesn't want to shell out the money needed to construct halfway adequate gym facilities on the Amherst Campus. The way things look with construction freezes, we'll be lucky to have any more buildings there at aU. Food Service can't afford to retain its student workers. It can't even afford to serve decent food. The Colleges have reached the bottom of the barrel. The Bookstore is still charging exorbitant prices for the same supplies you can buy a lot cheaper across the street. Small academic programs are being phased out, employees are being laid off, the University has run out of notches with which to tighten its belt, but... It is costing the University $16,900 to fix the steps of Lockwood Memorial Library, steps that have only been used by dogs, pigeons and sunbathers for years. Money that is so desperately needed for academic programs and services is being wasted away in slabs of cement. Is this intelligence? In reply to Marilyn C. Rug’s letter regarding my article on black discrimination, I am pleased to see that Ms. Rug recognizes that “in the current labor force most blacks are situated near the bottom with respect to such criteria as income, job status and unemployment rates.” However, it appears that her is advancement minority toward attitude characterized by some basic misunderstandings and a certain degree of paternalism. Without offering any statistics, Ms. Rug believes that there has been a significant decline in discrimination against blacks since 1972. Black organizations are not as optimistic. For instance, the NAACP recently criticized the Ford Administration for the lack of economic progress blacks are making. The fact that the Equal Opportunity Act was passed is not sufficient in itself. Without government enforcement and punishment of violators, the law loses its effectiveness. It is also clear that corporation’s can manipulate the spirit of laws forbidding discrimination. It is evident from the telephone company’s testimony before Congress that corporations are more than willing to hire blacks if they are willing to work at low wages. Cheap labor means more profits. What was particularly disturbing about Ms. Kill the monster Credit Hundreds of students each year watch their future goals and expectations go out the window as a result of a low score oh a standardized exam. Mass tasting is yet another plague of this computerized, highly impersonal society that takes all the experiences in a person's lifetime and reduces them to an immutable number. No organization is more responsible for perpetuating an over-reliance on test scores in this country than the monster that calls itself the Educational Testing Service (ETS). In its 28 years of existence, this allegedly non-profit corporation has unilaterally set standards and measures of academic achievement with the SAT's, GRE's, and LSAT's. It "is a huge mind control industry. Millions of students and other citizens are tested by ETS each year," yet "students have no control over ETS and neither do the schools which require the tests," according to NYPIRQ members who are currently investigating the firm. Although it has been proven that standardized exams do not necessarily reflect Whether a student will do well in college, admissions officers will consistently compare the qualifications of two students based on a 60 point difference in scores. Thus, a student's entire academic career can go down the drain if he or she is a poor test taker or isn't feeling well on the day of the exam. Until now, the ETS has been immune to inquiries into its operation. However, the mere fact that the corporation has a monopoly on the testing market should be grounds for questioning. Meanwhile, colleges and universities should consider alternatives to standardized exams and stop selling out themselves and their students to the monster in Princeton, New Jersey. To the Editor.

The idea that blacks are not experienced enough or qualified enough and should patiently work up to a level where they are managerial material is a racist conception. It is also inconsistent with affirmative action, which Ms. Rug supports. Finally, I hope that I did not create the impression that W.E.B. Dubois believed that blacks and whites cannot work together. Dubois believed that not only was it possible for black and white unity in economic and political life, but also that this unity was necessary for the abolition of racism. What Dubois opposed was the idea that blacks could overcome discrimination by becoming capitalists themselves. He realized that to be a capitalist was impossible for most blacks and not even desireable. He considered racism a as divisive tool that capitalists use to maintain their economic and political power. Philip Moran country.

The health and sanitary conditions that exist in Norton Hall cafeterias have long been a matter of exaggeration and humor to faculty, students and employees alike. Let’s get some facts straight. Last year, the steam table in the Rathskeller was inoperative for a short while. This wasn’t due to simple electrical failure but to the shorting-out of wires caused by the existence o{ a rat’s nest in the Rat’s steam table. Head for the hills! For those who dine exquisitely in the Tiffin Room and think they - are above all this beware! The cockroaches found in the first floor cafeterias and Rathskellar are those that have made the big leap from the second floor Tiffin Room kitchen. 1 was up there enough times this summer to observe the “feast of the critters” for — myself. The in-one-day, out-the-other, back-in-again hiring policy has long been another source of mystery to employees. Students and full-time workers have been laid-off or fired with little or no Whatever happened to the two week lay-away plan? The recent charge that relatives of employees were favored in hiring practice over more experienced antj long-term workers is not groundless. Food Service is rapidly becoming one big “family.” This attitude toward “family” hiring resulted in violation of a State Labor Law prohibiting minors from working heavy machinery. This summer, a fifteen year old was hired and allowed to work the dish machine in the first floor cafeteria. Another serious aspect that should concern us all is the compromising position that employees find themselves in working for Food Service. Some people in Food Service have worked for the Faculty Student Association (FSA) 15 and 20 years. Their jobs are just as fragile, as those of part-time employees recently hired. These people have families and are trying to exist 'in a time of economic turmoil. In soirte cases* these people have received $.15 raises over three years while management rewards itself well. The recent $.20 raise not withstanding! the minimum wage raise in January will wipe this out), Management policy toward workers has been one of neglect and abuse. The FSA owes it to these people to look into the workings of Food Service and establish some wage parity among workers and make Food Service more responsible to all concerned. notice. Name withheld upon request �info the next world with the Firesign Theatre by John Duncan Contributing Editor Do you remember the future? Have you given up your shoes for industry? Did you know that dogs flew spaceships to earth long ago, or that men and women are the same sex? If your answer is yes to any of then you are already the preceding, familiar with the insanity which is collectively known as the Firesign Theatre. If so, you should skip the next few paragraphs (if your brain is still the boss), for they are nothing more than meaningless hype. Shovel it on Those of you who answered no to all the preliminary questions have either never heard of or never listened to the Firesigns, a group which transcends all previous definitions of the term "comedy." (here comes the bullshit already!) To quote from their autobiography . According to insurance records, "thee in these Mad onely partissypants Exercises" were Paulas Peterboorg, a play write and bear-hater; Fflegmish Proctor Christman, the young son of the Archbishop of Arch and a poet of the school; the satirist "knife and Kut SackviHe Boozeman; and finally, the who Philip, had mysterious Philip apparently been reversed at birth, and is credited with inspiring the comforting Elizabethan concept of multiple-identity. " Like Proctor, it says, Peter Bergman, Phil David Ossman and Phil Austin began making records in or around Los Angeles, c. 1968, with Waiting for the Electrician. From the start, their strange blend of mid-20th century radio-drama format, improvised skits and puns, and intellectual satire set a precedent in the field of recorded humor. (This is what is known as piling it high.) More than meets the ear The subtlety and complexity of their work makes them far funnier than such contemporaries as Monty Python (similar but inferior) or Cheech & Chong (for vegetables only), yet these same attributes make them inaccessible to the many listeners who lack patience. Whereas a George Carlin or Robert Klein Ip may evoke peals of laughter upon first listening, the jokes wear thin with repeated play, as the victim already knows all the punchlines. Hearing a Gabriel Kaplan album 20 or 30 times has been -Jtnown to cause death, or at least nausea, in the average college student. On the other hand, a similar dose of any particular Firesign Theatre album (not all at once, of course) is rewarding to those who listen with even a minimum of attentiveness. Each time through, new puns, plot or word associations, ridiculous literary references, etc. become apparent. As is so rarely the case, the whole of the group's work is greater than the sum of its parts, as thq albums interconnect with and complement each other in a unique way. Repeated exposure to two or more Firesign things albums yields increasing benefits begin to fall together into an extensive — system of hilarious nonsense. History again: Scholars at Solid State University are at present attempting to assemble a coherent version of this comedy by programming the many variations printed during the time of the Puritan Elision into their D.R.M. computer. Enough. If you aren't a Firesign Theatre fan, you should be. If you listened to and didn't like them, you either didn’t listen hard enough (most likely), or heard a bad album (there are one or two). Which brings Columbia up a strange coincidence records has just released two new examples of Firesign product, one very good, and the other very bad. — First, the bad news What tilts Country Needs (A Good $.05 Joke) is the second album featuring Phil Proctor and Peter Bergman on their own, and consists of excerpts, taken over the last two years, from their stage show. It indeed proves to be a collection of five cent jokes, although most of them are not all that good and none of them satisfy the first half of the album title at all. The first side is all taken from their 'TV or Not TV" routine which is nothing exceptional, especially the second time around. If you saw it either of the times P.&B. performed it at the Fillmore Room a few years back, you know what I mean. The second side fares a little better, featuring all new material (most notably a radio talk show parody), but is largely unamusing. N and Bergman Proctor Although contribute greatly to the total Firesign Theatre sound (most of the funniest voices are Proctor's), they seem unable to write good material of their own. However, the apparent fragmentation of this already cracked group has resulted in a good album as well, perhaps because it is more of a group effort. In the Next World You're On Your Own, , which was written and produced by Ossman and Austin alone but performed by the entire Theatre, is far superior to the Proctor and Bergman release. While this new album (the group's ninth) is not as overtly hilarious as most of its predecessors, it certainly rates among their top six or seven in terms of overall quality. (More of a distinction than it sounds.) In the Next World features a superb collection of new characters (the Coolzip family of Heater, California), several cutting social remarks (mostly about the current trend toward mayhem), heavy tinges of science fiction and, of course, continuations and expansions of old themes. The TV guise The presentation of this new epic utilizes the proven Firesign medium of several "television shows" which share characters and story lines. As the plots thicken, shows and formats are constantly being traded, presenting different premises and viewpoints, confusing the hell out of the person between the speakers. The front cover illustration displays, things. Random among other many —continued on page 10 — �Poetry should be socially relevant by Sherry Morgulis Spectrum Arts Staff Heading a committee is not an easy job, especially when the committee consists of only one other person. But for Shana Ritter, chairperson of the UUAB Literary Arts Committee, it is a way of pursuing the object which is most important to her, and to which she is truly dedicated; promotion of the literary arts. To Chairperson Ritter, poetry is not a dead art, addressing itself only to the intellect. It is a live force which touches not only upon the mind, but the heart and consciousness as well. It.i* with this belief that Ritter and committee member Janet Yager coordinate the entire literary arts program on campus. A major portion of their effort is directed towards an extensive series Of poetry readings. This past summer UUAB sponsored a series of free readings by University faculty and students.

Ronnie Bwana is a wild farce that takas us from the gothic moors of England to the mysterious rain forests of Central America.

The scene between Gould and O'Neill was concocted as a cure for Gould, who, as one of the "comically" damaged victims of testing, can no longer have an erection. So O'Neill somehow figures that the gas will help.

University of Buffalo should add the worst of the and a few unexceptional features "Ape" series Beneath The Planet of the Apes, The Harrad Experiment and the ultra-violent Magnum Force is one of the least talented American directors working today. Post can be depended on to make a stiff, unimaginative and (this time around) tasteless film. The script of Whiffs is a disaster. When the film tries to be something a strange mixture of Dr. Strangelove and Mash (the film is being sold as "the it comes most hilarious military farce since Mash) out like a demented Walt Disney picture. When it tries to be funny, it parades the worst set of one-liners ever housed in a single film and carelessly and irresponsibly brings up Attica, Leavenworth and dated jokes about peace demonstrations for laughs. The sensibility of the film is so stale that there is nothing in Whiffs that could identify it as a new film. The acting in the film is overdone and bad. Elliott Gould, a fine actor, brings all his worst cutesy mannerisms to his role. The character he plays qualifies as neither funny nor sad; add to this the fact that the character has, among other grotesqueries, yellow and bald patches on his head as a result of the testing, and Gould emerges as a complete horror. Jennifer O'Neill couldn't possibly be accused of overdoing anything, since here, as elsewhere, she hardly ever bothers to give a Harry Guardino and Godfrey performance. Cambridge are equally bad. David Walsh's cinematography does include a few haunting shots of parched desert landscapes, but generally speaking, the only guinea pigs involved in Whiffs will be the audience. Whiffs is playing at the Holday and Seneca Mall — A film that is dedicated to the "human guinea pigs" that the army uses for the testing of chemical warfare. A crop-duster rampaging up the main street of a small town, dusting the townspeople with nerve gas. Elliott Gould and Jennifer O'Neill frolicking spacily on a bed, spraying nerve gas at each other. Kinky, scathing, right? Wrong. These are just a few of the weird images that abound to either little or bad purpose in Whiffs, a film as godawful as its title. An examination of the motives behind the above scenes will give some idea of the inanity of the film. First, Gould and his pal (Harry Guardino) are getting even for their previous status as testing subjects by robbing the local bank in revenge. The crop-duster (piloted by Godfrey Cambridge) is being used to put the citizens under while they pull off The politics of poetry Ritter, herself a poet, believes that poetry should serve more than just an aesthetic function. 'There was a time when poetry was used as an oral tradition, not only expressing fantasies, but reflecting the consciousness of the society whose voice it echoes. It must not only be recognized as an aesthetic forhn, but also as a political force. If we would take the time to listen and speak in the poetic tradition, we would be able to, as Marge Piercy says, 'lay the tower on its side and turn it into a communal longhouse'."

You've got the gunl") There'll be none of that old romantic cloak-and-dagger stuff for Turner, even if he does have a funny code name and an entire government intelligence network out to kill him. Long before Three Days of the Condor went into production, star Robert Redford had passed the stage at which he needed phony glamor to make him more attractive. Redford's producer and director, Stanley Schneider and Sydney Pollack, seem to have no such faith in their man's much-vaunted irresistability.

But before the film is two-thirds through, he has dismissed her forever.

Reading everything, knowing everything (which, of course, is the he has unwittingly become the spy world's reason for the manhunt proverbial Man Who Knows Too Much), Turner/Condor is a hard man to get hold of. The dossier compiled by the CIA department which has just "taken out" (in the film's typically maddening official parlance) his CIA department describes him as a "researcher type who likes to read comic strips" and it is precisely this sort of miscalculation that stretches the chase out for three whole days. narration — Superbird An expert on subjects ranging from botany to ballistics to Dick not to mention charm and Tracy, "a very under-rated detective" good grooming Turner avoids being traced during his calls to Washington by sneaking into Ma Bell's basement and wiring together 50 of her telephones. Obvibusly, it is only a matter of time before Max Von Sydow, as the professional killer hired by 'The Company" to take care of tough birds like the Condor, will stalk up behind him but Turner is intelligent and fascinating enough to keep the suspense building steadily right up to the end. The script, however, is not quite so intelligent and fascinating. Working from James Grady's novel Six Days of the Condor (and I'd like to know what they did with the rest of the week), David Rayfiel and Lorenzo Semple, Jr. have taken a rather confusing plot and concocted a two-hour screenplay almost entirely from instantly forgettable one- and two-liners on the order of "How long have you known Condor?" "Joey? I knew him before he was a bird, even." "Have I raped you?" Turner challenges defensively when Catherine suggests that the circumstances of their meeting were something less than romantic to which she replies pertly, 'The night is young!" — — — — Speechless The authors handle neutral scenes adequately, but as soon as they are faced with a really dramatic situation, their imaginations propel them right past the boundaries of believability. About to be gagged right in her own bathroom, Catherine shouts 'This is —gropes around for a while, and finally comes up with an injured "UNFAIR!" "I know," Turner quietly answers. And what more is there to say? On the other hand, Owen Roizman's cinematography is consistently stunning and under Sydney Pollack's direction, Condor is stylish and slick, fast-paced and very exciting. At times it is much too when Sparrow Hawk ("code name" of the ever helpful clever Catherine) and Condor take off in her van with Cliff Robertson as Higgins, the immediate superior they have just kidnapped, a flock of birds scatters from beneath its front wheels. But Turner's initial paranoia is very effectively captured in a short sequence set just after he leaves the Literary Historical Society for the last time and is suddenly confronted by a sea of suspicious-lookirfg faces, and the love scene between Redford and Dunaway, unnecessary as it may be, is sensitive and quite beautiful. Roizman alternates very close, quick, montage-like shots of the lovers' hands, faces, shoulders, and so forth either motionless or so near the lens as to be almost unidentifiable and therefore unreal with lovingly extended looks at photographer Catherin's own work, which Joe has already described as strikingly forlorn and empty. Passing quickly over the bodies on the bed while virtually caressing the stark, lonely photographs with his camera, Roizman says more about the couple than the screenwriters ever dare attempt. Three Days of the Condor has enough points in its favor to make its flaws easy to ignore. Now playing at the Holiday Theatre, it is a riveting piece of entertainment, and possibly represents Redford's best work to date. — — — Prodigal Sun match the dog, or are equally plausible.

After all, he is criticizing an entire generation's dreams and man. values. (Financial and familiar security are paths to total happiness . . . and the like.) Bob Slocum has worked hard to produce stability in his life, but through analysis he wakes up to find himself caught in a vpid, without escape. He is bored and unstimulated. Slocum tries hard to make the reader believe that all the unhappiness he suffers is completely due to outside influences, not to flaws in his own character. He finds it harder and harder to deal with the inconsistencies of his job, his family, his whole life. Only one fact (of the many he burdens us with) is clearly horrible: his youngest son is an incurable imbecile. Slocum is plainly heartless about the child and at the same time does not feel at fault: "I no longer think of Derek as one of my children," he says,-"or even as mine. I try not to think of him at all. This is becoming easier, even at home when he is nearby with the rest of us, making noise with some cradle toy or making unintelligible noises while endeavoring to speak.

Besides, Heller's unique style of writing and his flair for characterization has made Something Happened a best seller, both originally and now in paperback. — — Which of several possible tragedies will befall Slocum as a result of so much discontent?

Page nine �"Rooster Cogbum' out of the ordinary' in Wayne's shoot-em-up western An Indian village is Cogburn's first _stop. There he by Roberta Rebold Spectrum Arts Staff Another John Wayne movie?! Well, what more can be expected I thought, than endless guns and blood and maybe an entertaining story thrown in. After being exposed to four shootings in half as many minutes, I realized that Rooster Cogbum was definitely going to fulfill its quota of western violence. The movie's plot, though, was trite and faf from intriguing. John Wayne plays Rooster Cogbum, a character taken from the previous (and superior) movie. True Grit. Cogbum is a fearless, swaggering, one-eyed marshall, who has earned his nickname "Rooster" by showing who was "cock of the walk." (It is dialogue like this which makes the movie ridiculous at times.) Cogbum is used to following the laws of the old west, which exist on an "eye for an eye" basis. Rio bravado As the film opens, Cogburn is shown coolly showering four unsuspecting men with bullets. He is tried for his act, which we learn was done to avenge the death of his deputy. The judge informs Cogburn that changes are coming to ■ the west and new laws must-be obeyed. Cogburn is then punished by being temporarily stripped of his badge. Later that evening, the judge visits the ex-marshall at his home and tells him about a band of outlaws who are suspected of having plans to rob a bank. The judge offers Cogburn a large sum of money and possibly his badge if the criminals are rounded up and brought back alive. Cogburn agrees to this deal and sets off the next morning on the trail of the outlaws. meets Miss Goodnight (Katherine Hepburn), a religious, moralizing schoolteacher. Cogburn learns that Miss Goodnight and her preacher father had dedicated their lives to teaching "the word of the Lord" to Indian children. The old preacher had been killed the day before, when a group of drunken desperados had passed through the village and started trouble. ■> Miss Goodnight and an Indian boy named Wolf, whose family had been killed by the outlaws, decide to join Cogburn in his pursuit of the killers. Even though Cogburn does not agree to this arrangement ("Riding horses by day and sleeping on cold ground by night is no way for a woman to live'\ the woman and boy join him. Despite Miss Goodnight's constant sermonizing, she is a tough frontierswoman who rides, shoots and strategizes equally as well as Cogburn. The remainder of Rooster Cogburn depicts an unoriginal and overly long chase of the villains. The characters of the "bad guys" are totally stereotyped, complete with slitted eyes, dirty, whiskery faces and tobacco-filled mouths. was not altogether without redeeming value. The shots of Oregon's beautiful Deschutes National Forest were outstanding. The colors (especially of sunset) were striking and the river looked untouched and clear. I was also left with a definite impression that John Wayne's stone-age consciousness has been somewhat raised recently. The many predictable put-downs of women were obviously tongue-in-cheek; Hepburn's clever answers always left him speechless. It was as though Wayne knew Firesign Theatre Coolzip, aging patrolman, star of "Police Street," in his natural habitat. Random's days on the force are numbered, and he spends a lot of his time driving around drunk (he pulls into Three Finger Mickey's, a drive-up bar, for a "side of vodka"), and talking on the police radio to disembodied voices One Dolly 19, One Footfighter 22, and One Housewife 45. (Random's own code name is One Daddy 57.) himself. Color-consciousness Rooster Cogburn A soap commercial introduces Random's wife Peggy, leading character in an excellent parody of (what else) a soap opera, entitled "Over the Edge." (Remember "The Painful Threshold?") The Coolzip's daughter, beautifuly Hollowood starlet Kim Kool (a take-off on Linda Lovelace) makes her entrace in a tongue-in-cheek commercial which follows a scene of "Police Street" and stays on as "honorary co-chaircreature" in a "depression telethon" skit. Since the group's formation, the members of the Firesign Theatre have been advocates of the Native American cause. On this Ip, their point is driven home through the medium of a daytime game show called "Give It Back." Skipper Coolzip (Kim's brother, seen briefly in "Police Street") is the contestant, and gets to win prizes for "this week's forgotten Americans, the Dog Indians." What Skipper doesn't know is that the prizes he wins for the "grateful Dogs" are possessions to be taken away from his own parents hence the name of the show. Eventually young Cooliip wins a "Hollywood dream package," meaning that he and sister Kim are to attend the Academy Awards celebration, and take hostages at gunpoint for his tribe’s cause. The following dialogue takes place between Skipper and the game show host: "Yes, Skipper, it's your gallant bid to give America back to the Dogs. You can save the country “Do I get to keep the gun?" . But in return, your parents, back on the reservation, will have to give up ..." . — everything!"

("The the agony of competition thrill of death your DMA Sports Web is on the air.") The side also includes commercials for such things as Billy Jack dog food ("You know, the kind of dog food that Billy Jack likes"), the American Excess credit card, and the Golden Showers automated massage parlor (where boy and girl robots have interchangeable parts, and patrons are kept "in touch with the latest in adult interest" through the "exclusive enema hotline"). The Ip ends on a very strange, almost disturbing note, the meaning of which is still quite unclear to me. — May I have the envelope, please? George Tirebiter makes a — return appearance on side two as announcer for the Academy Awards ritual which is later disrupted by Skipper and Kim. Hollywood is mocked well by the movie excerpts which follow George's "nominations for overachievement in a starring vehicle." The audience applauds wildly as they view and disaster on the screen, titles including Universal Studios' "The Day Universal Burned Down" ("Two stuntmen just killed each other on the oriental violence set! Vaaah!") and Horrifying Pictures' "Crime Clock Terror," featuring Ace Berserker as the atomic chainsaw death killer.

Its marquee timidly protrudes, quietly bespeaking the grandeur of the building. The edifice is the majestic Loew's Buffalo. The Loew's is a city within a city. It is a theatre which has its own spirit, ambience and of mind. The Loew's is evoking excitement today because of plans to use it as a concert hall. The UUAB Music Committee in cooperation with Belle Aire presentations have already booked three musical shows into the palace on Main. It appears the dog days of unasked for saunas and the abhorrent acoustics of Clark Hall will become mere memories as well as the cramped asshole to elbow entanglement that was the Fillmore Room's calling card. The Loew's Buffalo is a setting much more conducive to a professional musical presentation which campus halls just could never provide. state Pipings of Pan The aura of the Loew's resides in its history. The theatre was constructed in 1925 for the tidy sum of $2 million. The architects were the famed wizards of theatre palaces, George and C.W. Rapp. The breathtaking interiors of the theatre were designed by Tiffany Studios of New York City. The Loew's internal layout is a colossal, sprawling interpretation of the Louis the XIV style. Illuminated domes, gold leafing, marble founts, mirrors reflecting mirrors overwhelm the senses as if you were under the sway of a Kubla Khan pipe dream inspired by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Multi-faceted chandeliers, winding stairs, crazy carpets and columns transport you to a mythic land where you can hear the soft pipings of Pan. The Loew's presence is that intense. It has been the sad fate of similar theatres across the country to be demolished and destroyed. It is the hope of the Friends of Buffalo, a small dedicated collective of concerned citizenry, headed by L. Curt Mangel III that the Loew's won't be lost to the Buffalo community. Mangel envisions the possibility of the Loew's becoming Buffalo's Center for the Performing Arts. He cites the fact that of the 50 major cities in the U.S. only Buffalo lacks a V, performing arts center. •. See-saws in limbo The Friends are now in the process of restoring Prodigal Sun the theatre to top-flight shape so it can be a source of enrichment to the Buffalo area. Currently the Loew's is embroiled in the quagmire of litigation. Meanwhile city officials sit on their hands Unsure of just what to do with the theatre. Election day draws near and the politicians are shuffling their feet and jockeying for position to see who will back into office before any decisions will be made regarding the status of the theatre. The options open to the city are numerous enough. They can run the theatre under city management, lease it out to various promoters or sell the theatre outright. So the charismatic Loew's see-saws in a tenuous limbo. Recently the U.S. Department of Interior bestowed the honor of adding the Loew's Buffalo to the select list of the National Register of Historical Places. From the public's vantage point, the Loew's is a Buffalo natural resource laying nearly fallow. The potential for creating a cultural facility which can showcase dance, theatre, jazz and other arts media, coupled with another stride toward reclaiming downtown, is too important to be forfeited by bureaucratic backroom buck passing. Curt Mangel's idea that the theatre must not be exploited but instead preserved and used for the public good is an excellent yardstick from which the city can gauge and guide subsequent action. tickets available at ticket office $1.00. $125. $1.50 beer and other refreshments ;he coffeehouse sold out two si October 25 at 2 p.m GUITAR STYLES WORKSHOP with artie traum room 232 free Discounts up to 25% off* when you show your University I.D.

Images of longhairs crazed on cheap rot gut and a fistful of lewds trashing the historic Loew's is a vivid worry in the minds of some officials. The theatre is now going through a probationary stage to ascertain whether the University students can prove capable of using the theatre properly. That's not asking much. The landmark 3,249 seat theatre at 646 Main is nearing the fiftieth anniversary of its inception. The rococo and regal rafters will ring with the sound of music ranging from the funky rock of Little Feat to the jazz riffings of Larry Coryell and Steve Khan. It it a rare opportunity for the University community to combine fine entertainment with the splendid spaciness of the Loew's Buffalo.

Page eleven . �Vocal classical 'explosion' Buffalo is in decent shape musically. The Buffalo Philharmonic, the various chamber music series, the University's musical offerings (especially contemporary music), and the many church groups all combine to provide a well-balanced, high quality diet for anyone whose ears so attuned. Unfortunately, generally missing from this fare is great vocal music. Opera performances are a rarity, evenings of art songs and arias are similarly few. It is a glaring, annoying deficiency. That we are in the middle of a minor explosion of vocal events is, understandably, cause for a good deal of interest (maybe even singing). It was a performance by Donald Gramm (bass/baritone) on Tuesday, October 14, in the Mary Seaton Room of Kleinhans that started the rush, followed quickly and successfully by the first recital of a Schubert Lieder (songs) Festival with Heinz Rehfuss (baritone) performing in the Katherine Cornell Theater on Sunday, October 16. The incredible French baritone, Gerard Souzay, keeps the ball rolling with a recital next Wednesday evening in selections by Tchaikovsky, Nin, Poulenc and others. Souzay is probably the most incredible interpreter of French art songs (credible?) (particularly Poulenc) alive. Capping this flurry of vocalism is nothing less than a fully staged production of Richard Strauss' chamber opera Ariadne aux Naxos in the Shaw Festival Theater, Niagara-on-the-Lake, November 7—9. The Buffalo Cavalleria incidentally, brings Philharmonic, Rusticana and Pagliacci to Kleinhans November 1. Now that's an explosion. Sonorous vocal As I said, Donald Gramm got things started, opening his program with arias from various Handel operas. Gramm's basic musical intelligence, wide vocal equipment and ranging and sonorous conscientious acting all made themselves known quickly. In his performance of "O Ruddier than the Cherry" from the opera Acis and Galatea, he displayed accuracy of intonation and rhythm in some frighteningly rapid runs, while maintaining his basic musicality. Robert Schumann's introspective Liederkreis (Song Cycle), Op. 39 brought out the small scale Gramm, which proved equally satisfying, gelling as he did with his pianist, Donald Hassard. Returning to opera with Mozart's "Rivolgete a seguardo," K. 584 (originally intended for Cosi Fan Tutti), Gramm donned the humorous character with assurance. The four songs by Faure lui lo that followed were sung smoothly enough but might have benefited from a lessening of scale. Closing the program with Five Songs of Charles Ives, Gramm alternately marched, waltzed, swaggered and yelled to great effect. He made one feel amost comfortable as he tackled Ives' rhythms with sureness. What should I say? Donald Gramm is musical, intelligent and possesses a rich vocal instrument. More musical intelligence was displayed by Heinz Rehfuss in his traversal of the Schubert song cycle, Die Schoene Muellerin. The range of colors and moods that Schubert asks for were delivered by Rehfuss with insight. Everything seemed carefully thought out, yet spontaneous. Carlo Pinto, at the piano, was a sympathetic partner, though his waving arms sometimes annoyed. All in all, a very moving performance heralding the beginning of College B's Schubert Lieder Festival, Workingman’s Schubert Getting away from the vocal scene but staying with Schubert, we arrive at last Friday's program featuring the Zagreb Pro-Arte String Quartet. This Yugoslavian group presented Schubert in an entirely different musical temperament than I have heard him previously. Their performance of Schubert's Quartet, Op. 125, No. 1 was workman-like but warm, really very straight. It worked, though, and that is final criteria. What didn't work was Hiller's Quartet No. 2, the second piece of the evening. After a minute or two this unabashedly romantic piece becomes predictable and, ultimately, almost as boring as it is romantic. It was played with fervor. The second half of the concert was devoted to a survey of short pieces by contemporary Yugoslavian composers. The most effective pieces were Branimar Sakac's Serenata and Miroslav Miletec's Modifications for String Quartet and Percussion. The Sakac piece is an honestly folk-inspired work that makes conservative, effective use of the dark colors available to string quartets. Percussionist Donald Knaack joined the quartet for Miletec's work that alternately involves unisons, dialogues and unrelated lines between the quartet and percussion. It is colorful, atmospheric work.

Friday, 24 October 1975 Pi: It g �by Mike McGuire and Karen Szczepanski A packed Century Theater was the scene last Saturday night for Dale Wasserman's powerful adaptation of Ken Kesey's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, the longest-running dramatic play in off-Broadway history. The excellent production of the play set in a mental hospital ward left the unusually well-dressed Century crowd somewhat unsure about just who's nuts and who isn't in our society. Randall Patrick McMurphy, played by Frank O'Connor, is a work farm prisoner who feigns madness to escape the drudgery of the farm. The rowdy the change McMurphy has brought to the ward, and a new awareness of the Big Chief's own self-worth. The mental ward of the play has disturbing similarities to the outside world, the "sane" society. Everyone except McMurphy is in the ward voluntarily, and could get out if they asked. But, as one patient sees it, they are the weak rabbits of the world, afraid of being eaten by the foxes running around outside. In the ward, their lives first met with all the subtle means society has of dealing with dissidents first condescension, then "the rules are for your own good," then character assassination (the Big Nurse tells the other patients he's a card cheat and reminds them he came from a work farm), then mild harassment.

If one believes the hospital authorities, everything is done for the from the well-being of the patients tranquilizers pushed down their throats each morning to cruel group therapy sessions where they are humiliated by the Big Nurse to the piped in Muzak the patients hate.

Fitzgerald), Cheswick (Michael Zelenko) and Ruckly (Carl Yorke) were fine as fellow ward patients. Nina Murano and Katherine Braun, who played two saucy women smuggled into the ward by McMurphy, played their rather stock roles with gusto. (Braun also played the Big Nurse's subordinate. Nurse Flinn.) The Big Nurse herself, played by Bronwyn Carter, was a minor disappointment. While the role calls for a coldness, an inhuman malevolence possible only in a technocrat. Carter played a more human (and therefore more ambiguous) character. While her portrayal of the role as she saw it was fairly good, her misreading softened the impact of the play. Frank O'Connor as McMurphy played a swaggering, lusty hero well, although his portrayal was hampered slightly by the stock characterization of the rowdy Irishman with a heart of gold.

Page thirteen �Esther Satterfield, Once I Loved (A&M) The enticing lady stood only a few inches away; her beauty struck, and I was spellbound. Little did I know that with that first glimpse she had not even begun to shower me with her rewards. When the time for pleasure had finally arrived the lady did not simply sprinkle me with gifts, instead she flooded my heart with emotion. Her first intonation sent my heart into a fantasy of sensuality. From that moment of exile into ecstasy I listened, saw and felt only her voice. I was her captive. For 40 minutes, I was entranced by the inundation of the sound, the waves were perfect, never breaking or crackling, just flowing smoothly. The band was a pleasant backup, they did not obstruct feeling but rather thrust Esther's vocal to the forefront. It took unsurmountable talent to perform so keenly and yet so unobtrusively. Satterfield's voice always was able to fall back on the rhythmic foundation supplied by Joe La Barbera on drums and Al Johnson on bass. When her throat needed a rest the "Beautiful Black Girl," as the Watts Prophets would call her, could depend on Gerry Niewood to pick up a wind instrument and keep the emotion pulsating until Esther could come back strong, stronger than before the horn interlude. When speaking about her. Chuck Mangione said, "There are few voices so naked. Esther’s pure, so distinct, that one dare let them stand alone is the exception." From the onset she let me know what she had attracted me for she was going to "Life Every Voice and Sing" for me. If there was a tune that resembled a rock number in her repertoire this was it, and she put swing into it. I always knew that the power of love was strong but when Esther said, "Love is Stranger Far than We" it was impossible to disagree. Her presentation was so flawless and convincing that I surrendered without a rebuttal. Her return to a glorious era of the past was a superb tribute to Heywood-Gershwin and their song, "Summertime." For a long time admirer of the verse it was an occasion for celebration because when Esther took "Summertime" to a height that only her voice could carry. It made "life easier than ever before." The Four Tops told us, we need more music. Love Music, to turn the people on, but they didn't give me quite enough of it. But when Esther told me that we needed more "Love Music," I felt it was time for me to make my own. The most emotionally demanding song that Esther did was "The Summer Knows." Here she combined her exquisite voice with fine - — lyrics: "Summer Smiles, Summer Knows and unashamed she sheds her clothes and loving me she warms the sand on which you He." The hold was soon to be broken though, but not until Esther had proven to me, without a doubt, that she had enough talent to be rated with the idols of various generations. And so ended my 40 minutes' sojourn with Esther Satterfield, I was released from my fantasy world and ecstasy had floated away via a tone arm. Esther had told me earlier in "Once I Loved" that "Love is the saddest thing when it goes away," and she proved it when she ZU ended her first album. — Page fourteen . The Spectrum .

Linda Ronstadt, Prisoner in Disguise (Asylum) Linda Ronstadt's voice is perhaps the most finely crafted instrument in American country-rock music today. She is as much at home with a gentle James Taylor ballad ("Hey Mister, That's Me Up on the Jukebox") as she is with a belting country rocker like Lowell George's "Roll 'Um Easy." Twenty-nine and beautiful, Linda Ronstadt is the embodiment of female country innocence and charm, a quality which transcends her music throughout. Last year's album. Heart Like A Wheel produced two giant AM hit singles ("You're No Good" and "When Will I Be Loved?") which re-established Ronstadt as country-rock's leading lady after a brief absence from the airwaves. The basic formula for the new album seems to focus on Ronstadt's versatility. She sings a beautifully plucky version of Neil Young’s "Love is a Rose," and then goes to the other extreme where she attempts two old Motown numbers. Here is where the formula fails. Ronstadt is an excellent country-rock interpreter. However, she lacks the urbane brashness (urbanites would call it sophistication) necessary to sing soul. She is too innocent and wholesome a country girl for that, although her version of the Martha Reeves' standard "Heat Wave" has the easily palatable AM-saturation-radio sound to it, and should find its way to Top 40 soon. Ronstadt's guiding lights throughout the album are Andrew Gold (guitar and vocals) and John David Souther (from Souther, Hillman & Furay Band), who plays guitar, sings vocal harmony, and penned two of the songs including the title track. Linda also enjoys the company of a star-studded cast of back up musicians and vocalists, including James Taylor, Pete Asher, David Lindley and Maria Muldaur. Ronstadt refuses to fade from the foreground, and her compelling voice easily matches her instrumentation. She is simple country-rock music in its purest form, a delectable diet of blues and greens. The record, despite a somber sounding title, and a chilling photo of Linda portrayed as a "prisoner" on the cover, is an "up" album. The tunes are easily listened to and can be heard rolling off your tongue later in the day, even after one listening. Linda Ronstadt is the confirmed sweetheart of country-rock music; the little girl with the big voice promises to be a giant star. —Jerry Leshaw Fur prodi*r»; labeled to •how country of origin. hengerer Prodigal Sun �by David J. Rubin Sports Editor The State University Construction Fund deserves a hand. It is the first individual or group in three years to successfully unite athletes, coaches, student leaders, and the press toward a common goal. And it accomplished this feat with the greatest of ease. For the fifth time since 197?, the Construction Fund has cut the size of the proposed athletic facilities at the Amherst Campus. This last cut was a particular shock because the fourth one was accepted on the condition that no further cuts would be made. Surprise.* Student Athletic Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia, Student Association President Michele Smith, The Spectrum Editor Amy Dunkin, and Assistant Dean of the School of Health Education Martin McIntyre have all expressed amazement at the audacity of the Construction Fund’s move. The fieldhouse must be built, and it must be built big. It is needed more than any other academic building that is being constructed at Amherst. The Main Street gym facilities are comparatively worse than any other department facilities at this University, and unless a complete fieldhouse with adequate locker rooms, gymnasiums, handball-type courts, and offices are erected, the physical education facilities will remain the worst. The Construction Fund claims that this new cutback is a result of a miscalculation. Maybe yes, maybe no. Regardless of the cause, it is too late to make any further cutbacks on the proposed facility. If there are no funds available, either some should be raised, or cuts should be made for other proposed buildings, and added back to the fieldhousc line. Once again, athletics is getting the screw from the people with the money. No scholarships is already old hat. Possible cuts in salaries of coaches could cripple the athletic program at Buffalo, and if the fieldhouse is constructed with its new budget, intercollegiate, intramural, and just plain fun athletics will be as bad as they arc now. Delia summed it up well. “The people who are suffering are the students. Every day that we delay the gym gets smaller and smaller.” Athletics have been sacrificed all too often. It’s time to ciit back on other areas-and ease up on physical education. President Robert Ketter has attempted to convince students that he is in favor of athletics, but if he does not prevent this latest move, his credibility will take a sharp drop. I glso find it most upsetting that it took as severe a move as this to rally the many factions at this University. “United we stand, divided we fall” is nothing new. Yet it really hits home in light of this move by the Construction Fund. Athletes and coaches are essentially ineffective alone. Student Association could improve its effectiveness with its support. But mostly, bickering amongst each other is where the real damage is done. The administration, and groups like the Construction Fund think that they can make these cutbacks stick because opposition to them will be minimal and disorganized. Now is the time to prove them wrong. * Sports Quiz After an unavoidable two week vacation.

A proposal for the creation of the Commission was passed by the Student Senate last week. The proposal called for representation of the following constituencies: undergraduates, Millard Fillmore College Students; one representative for the law, dental and medical students; graduate students; faculty; staff; the office of Student Affairs and Campus Security. In addition, there will be a to the commission. Each group will have one representative, except undergraduates, who will have two, one a member of a minority. Under the new system of government, all legislation enacted by the Student Senate should originate ideally in one of the three task forces (Student Affairs, Academic Affairs, or Student Activities and Services). Legislation introduced to the Senate is either voted on, referred back to the task force, or sent to the operations and rules committee for clarification. The Commission proposal, bill S-001, originated in the Student Affairs Task Force. Director Steven Schwartz said he considers the Commission an excellent idea. “Anytime SA receives complaints from students, we have a responsibility to investigate these complaints, and this commission will do that,” he said. SA spokesman said further work on the Commission cannot go forward until replies are received to the letters of invitation sent to prospective Commission members. “We hope that the Commission will be a forum in which all parties can meet and discuss problems, and to define some solutions,” Smith said.

Printed warnings regarding the cancer-causing potential of the drug and the restriction of its contraceptive uses to emergency situations would also be required. DBS pills are supposedly for emergency contraception only, but trouble has arisen over the varying definitions of emergency which private and school physicians have used. One of the authors of the bill, Sen. Richard Schweikert (R., Pa.), claimed that its use was often “indiscriminate, especially on college campuses.” A doctor quoted in MS. magazine claimed that he wrote 1400 morning-after pill prescriptions because of women’s “state of panic” at the prospects of an unwanted pregnancy. - No longer banned The main ingredient of the morning-after pill, DES, is a known carcinogen but only in much greater quantities than the 250 mg. dose contained in the usual dose of pills. DES was banned by the FDA because of a suspected link with cancer but early this year the FDA reversed its decision and stated that no evidence of increased chance of cancer was found in women who have had short-term exposure to DES. But the FDA’s regulations warn that it is “sensible and prudent” to avoid use of DES “unless absolutely necessary.” The FDA also acknowledged that if the morning-after pill didn’t work, a resultant female child “will have an increased risk of cancer of the vagina or cervix later in life.” DES is also fed to cattle to fatten them before shipping them to market. So far no one has established a definite link between the use of DES in cattle feed and contraceptive drugs to human cancer. But a lot of people are trying. The National Cancer Institute has awarded contracts worth $1.5 million for a study of cancerous and non-cancerous gynecological disorders of women whose mothers received DES and other synthetic estrogens during pregnancy. DES was prescribed during the 40’s and 50’s to prevent miscarriages. Meanwhile the drug is prescribed at university health services around the country. Although the drug is approved for such “emergency” situations as rape or incest, many campus doctors regard unprotected intercourse as an emergency. A doctor at Iowa State University said he would prescribe the morning-after pill for unprotected intercourse but would “try not to prescribe the pill for a second time.” Difference of opinion Since the chance of getting pregnant from a random intercourse is only about 1 in 13, some doctors think waiting for confirmation of pregnancy and then an abortion is safer than DES in the long run. Others disagree. If there is a significant risk of pregnancy and the choice is between DES and an abortion, DES would be preferable, a University of Colorado health clinic administrator said. But Frank Rauscher, Jr., director of the National Cancer Program, isn’t so sure. Rauscher advocated a complete withdrawal of the morning-after pill unless its unnecessary use can be curtailed. Rauscher did not, however, condemn DES across the board, calling it a “useful medical tool.” to the morning-after pill for emergency An alternative contraception may be just around the corner. A physician of the Buffalo Planned Parenthood Center announced at a symposium that none of the 97 women who had a Copper-T 1UD inserted within five days after unprotected intercourse became pregnant. The Copper-T is the easiest type of IUD to insert in women who have not been pregnant apd also eliminates uncomfortable side effects such as nausea and vomiting which often accompany DES.

If we couldn’t clean all the tables, they would remain dirty,” said one student who recently quit working in the first Several students who were laid off from their jobs in the Norton Hall cafeterias have charged Food Service with unfair hiring and firing practices. A number of current employees also claimed Food Service is understaffed in light of excessively long lines and possible unsanitary conditions in eating and cooking areas. Food Service permanently dismissed seven part-time student employees and four full-time workers last week. “Norton was not making its budget and cuts totalling $1000 a week had to be made,” said Donald Bozek, Assistant Diretor of Food Service. He said these cuts were achieved by laying off $700 in full time labor and $300 in part-time student help. Additionally, the working time of most of the full-time employees on both campuses was cut, in most cases by no more than three hours per week. However, a few of the laid-off students told The Spectrum Monday that when they were hired earlier this year. Food Service officials promised that their jobs would last at least until the end of the semester. They feel that not only did Food Service mislead them but now that the semester is half over, there are virtually no jobs still available on campus. Communication gap “Our major problem is that we did not make dear to our employees that continued employment would be dependant upon the continued level of sales,” according to Fobd Service Director Don Hosie. “We overstaffed Norton Hall and as a result, had to make cutbacks.” The error was due in part to the poor judgment of two recently hired managers of Norton Hall Food Service, Bozek said, adding, “If the managers at Norton had realized that there would be certain financial difficulties, this would not have happened.” It is cheaper to hire students and “we try to hire as many as possible,” Bozek asserted. Students work an average of IS hours a week, but some work up to 35 hours, class schedules permitting. Regular employees, on the other hand, receive pro-rated benefit packages, including Blue Cross and Blue Shield and paid vacation time, Bozek said. He explained, however, that when reductions in labor must be made, part-time students are always the first to go. They are more expendable than their full-time counterparts because their work usually requires very little floor cafeteria in Norton. Students who work in the Rathskellar also charged that their hours were switched without regard for their class schedules. “Your hours are changed and this is it,” one student reported the supervisor as saying. Hosie was unaware of this situation, however, and said, “This is not a good practice. If this is the case, it will not continue.” Bozek said the two managers in Norton “will have to bend to work around student schedules, especially around exam times.” “Ideally, it is company policy to have one student work the whole week, but the next best route is with two or three students. Communication is sometimes a problem when dealing with many students, because we have to explain the nature of the work over and over again to new workers,” Bozek said. Food Service depends on its full-time staff to take on the extra workload during periods that student help is unavailable, such as exam time and the beginnings and ends of semesters. Long lines “Students take the job more casually than full-time workers,” noted Archie Bergersen, manager of the Red Jacket cafeteria at Ellicott. “If there is a question of a concert or something like that, they will not hesitate to miss work.” But most students do find substitues,” he said. Sixty, percent of the 57 person working force at Ellicott are students. However, even at peak hours, workers agree that Ellicott personnel do not face the long, confused pay and contract lines with which Food Service must contend weekdays in the Rathskellar and other Norton cafeterias. The lines in these places have been the source of frequent complaints by employees and customers. In addition to being inconvenient for students who must rush to class, many people maintain that their cooked food gets cold by the time they reach the cashier. • Hosie agreed that long lines is a very real problem, although he said separate pay and contract lines have been established, with the latter serving over 350 lunches daily. A scatter system for cash lines also enables people to coffee, sandwiches, donuts purchase snack foods - without having to wait. No relief Hosie said a request he made for extra space in Norton in September was denied. “Frankly, without this extra space, the lines will not become much shorter,” he admitted. He did suggest that people use the cash line on the second floor of Norton Hall, through which an estimated 200 pass daily. Both current and former Food Service workers cited cases of health code violations in cafeterias and kitchens. Some of the charges include food left out unrefrigerated for hours, food cooked and then reserved for up to a montli, and food thawed and refrozen more than once. Hosie denied most of the charges, stating, “Volume is so great that 1 can’t imagine this to be true.” He did note that if meat patties are not used during the day but are kept cold while sitting out, they can be refrozen. “This is common practice and is not unsanitary,” he said. Bozek also refuted these claims. “We do not hang on to food after 48 hours,” he stressed. Health check He also pointed out that the Norton Food Service facilities were inspected by the Health Department two weeks ago and the permit to operate was renewed. However, one student who recently resigned from a job in a Norton cafeteria claims that there are roaches behind the counter. “All the kitchen people know they’re there,” the person said, “but nothing is done about them.” Employees in the Elljcott Food Service areas have not (encountered the same problems as Norton Hall workers. One Ellicottemployee said that one person is sufficient to handle the “morning rush” at the Student Club. She also called the alleged complaints “a bunch of baloney.” Another student worker described his work as a “decent job,” with a “friendly boss and a well-organized kitchen.” Commenting on the economics of the Ellicott operation, Bozek said, “If we had to make a profit on every individual day, we would close Monday and Tuesday and cut back hours of service on Saturday and Sunday mornings.” �The pros and cons of ERA questioned in vigorous debate continued, but spouses would be equally liable to the family.

Circulation average: 15,000 Will do nothing Schlafly asserted that the ERA can do nothing to secure equal pay for equal work, and that it will do nothing for education and for women’s credit because these issues have already been addressed by other congressional legislation, she explained. Schlafly compared the ERA to a cure-all remedy. “Taking the. remedy makes you feel good, but it has no cure.” To Schlafly, the ERA is a big “take away” of women’s rights, that can destroy the family because the bill would destroy rights of women designed to keep the family together. Schlafly said the ERA will alter existing marriage contracts and that this will especially hurt older women who are not aware of its consequences. She labeled the behavior of ERA proponents as “mischief.” If ERA passes, she warned, women will lose the benfits of the protective labor laws. She said it is silly to ask for equality when physical factors are involved. Schlafly contended- the ERA will take away freedom of choice. She cited how in Maryland girls and boys are forced to participate together in contact sports. Schlafly claimed homosexuals will enjoy the same rights as married couples, such as adopting children and filing joint income taxes and that the ERA will be used to make cases in court to force religious institutions to otdain female clergy. Protection needed “I have no desire to dominate or to be dominated. Let us stand on our own two feet,” Younger replied. Younger accused Schlafly of saying that the ERA was only supported by small groups, but was interrupted by shouts ofv denial from the audience. The moderator had to step in to announce that interuptions would not be tolerated. Younger characterized Schlafly’s attitude as, “Women got everything. What the hell do they want now?

She feels the ERA may force the mother to go out and get a job. Schlafly pleaded in her conclusion, “Why leave areas of interpretation up to the courts? The courts have caused enough problems.

You’re rights were secured in the first amendment.” One questioaner accused Schlafly of being a member of the communist party, the Klu Klux Klan and of being a paid lobbyist for the John Birch Society. Chuckling, Schlafly denied the accusations. The tension of the debate reached a climax when Younger remarked that Schlafly’s own state of Illinois, 'had an ERA. Schlafly quickly answered that Illinois had an Equal Protection Amendment, not an ERA and urged the audience to adopt Illinois’ wording and drop New York’s.

Community colleges are over-crowded (CPS) Students at many community colleges were caught in a squeeze play this fall. Although the economy pushed unsuccessful job seekers into college enrollment lines, tight finances forced some schools to close the door on open admissions. For the first time, several thousand students at community colleges were turned away. - “It’s push come to shove. People can’t find jobs, so they live at home and enroll in a vocational program at their local community college. State legislatures can’t come up with the moncy-for all of the students, so some are sent away,” said an official .of the American Association of Community and Junior Colleges (AACJC). Enrollment at two-year colleges is expected to skyrocket to 4 million students this year, a 20 percent increase over last year’s enrollment, according to the AACJC. This compares to an enrollment increase of only 3 percent for four-year colleges, according to Office of Education statistics. Bella Abzug —Courtesy Knocks CIA among others at a Clark Hall appearance - Limited support This increased student demand for a community college education has upset the 6pen admissions policy of community colleges in some states. Previously, all community colleges subscribed to an open door policy for all high school graduates and for non-graduates who qualified for specific programs Yet more students necessitated more money. Tuition at an average of $2100, according to the community colleges is low and doesn’t go far in covering a College Entrance Examination Board school’s operational expenses. Dependent on state monies for financial support, community colleges have now found a definite limit to that by Marty Schwartz Staff Writer Spectrum — - support. In an unprecedented move, the California state legislature squeezed out potential students by limiting enrollment to no more than a 5 percent increase over last June. “Blame it on the economy,” said one state legislator. in Chicago, nine community colleges face the unwelcome task of deciding whether to raise tuition presently $60 a quarter for fulltime “We’re robbing the students or reject some applying students. very people who need an education,” said Sy Freedman, an official of City Colleges of Chicago. “The Latinos, the blacks, the Indians: these and at current people can’t afford to go to school anywhere but here tuition prices.” t - - - Door closed In Flordia, at least 5000 students were turned down by community college admissions officers. “Xhis is the first time we had to close the open door,” said Harold Kastner of Florida Community Colleges. Faced with the problem of how to weed out potential students, some Florida schools operated under a first-come, first-serve principle, while others ranked students according to residency, citizenship and school standing. “The energy crisis, coupled by the state deficit, hit us hard, explained Kastner. “We ran out of money.” No one is making any bets on what will happen to community colleges in the future. “It nil depends on the economy and on enrollment,” said Edmund J.

Abzug concentrated on the CIA, Ford’s budgetary politics, women’s rights and the general “unrepresentation” of youth, women and minorities in the government. In her indictment of CIA policies, Abzug told of instances in which her mail was opened by intelligence agents. Although she said CIA Director William Colby assured her mail was intercepted in only a few instances, she recalled that the Rockefeller Commission’s Report showed that “the CIA has inspected four and a half million pieces of mail in New York City alone.” Abzug had another run-in with the CIA when she requested her personal file from Colby. She said she did not receive any response until three months later, when she found the file on her desk. She noted that the file was delivered the night before she of the Congressional chairwoman became Sub-Committee on Government Information and Individual Rights. Abzug later pointed out the foolishness of the file’s contents. ‘They had an account of a speech I made in one of the most secret in front of the Forty-Second Street public places library.” - mandatory meeting of Coui Hidden information Summing up of “invisible the issue said accounts of assassination government,” Abzug York City of the New plots, the mock poisoning prove that activities, clandestine subways, and other American from the “these agencies kept things House.” and even the White people, the Congress, “It was through these agencies,” she continued, “in which Nixon sought to take over the country, so we must cleanse them to ensure these types of abuses don’t happen in the future.” Shifting to the problems within the “visible government,” Abzug said “President Ford has violated the spirit of democracy by his unprecedented 49 vetos.” Abzug attributed this to the lack of a popularly elected president. “One would think that based on Ford’s small mandate to govern, he would exercise his constitutional powers with restraint. As a matter of policy. President Ford has denied the very fundamentals of democracy, by preventing people from earning a living and by feeding and housing themselves,” she said. Commenting on the New York City budget crisis, Abzug explained that “the Congress wants to act and will act, but that there is no guarantee that Ford won’t veto it. Ford is playing politics because he knows he won’t get the votes in the urban areas, so he’s more concerned with votes in Peoria than in New York,” she said. National concern Abzug reiterated in a brief press conference that “Congress and the American people realize that a New York City default would affect the whole nation, and that the cities’ problems are due to recession and inflation, making it a national concern.” “Everyone has to sacrifice,” she emphasized. “It’s time that the banks and corporations have some responsibility to return some of the profits they have made off the American people.” Abzug recently introduced a bill within Congress requiring the Federal government to assume a uniform 75 percent of all state welfare costs. Under her plan. New York State would receive an additional one billion dollars in federal aid. Erie County, which has an annual welfare bill of 5114.1 million, would receive an additional $28 million. Abzug claims the crisis in government stems from a non-representation of the needs of certain segments of the population. ‘This country would be totally different if the people discriminated against the youth, women and the minorities could get out and determine the course of this government,” she said. Abzug suggested that if there were fewer “elitist white male lawyers” in Congress, and more women, teachers and young people,” we would never have continued the war in Vietnam. “When you have stag senators, you have stagnation,” she said. - - Women leaders Abzug was insistent that “women have a responsibility to become leaders, and not to build bombs.” She said women would make a difference because “they haven’t had the opportunity to be corrupted by power,” and that within the family structure, women have always “served in the role as the peacemaker in trying to make the home beautiful.” A delegate to the International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City, Abzug felt one of the most important realizations that “women had no real power.” She admitted that the conference had complications, namely, manipulation from the countries from which the delegates came, countries, which she added, were run by men. Abzug concluded with another sweeping indictment of the “system,” claiming that “this is a period of testing and challenge.” “We have to demand of our candidates not only what they say in their speeches, but on how they are going to go about organizing around their programs.” Wednesday, 22 October 1975 .

The main obstruction was the system not just white people,” he explained. The system “could utilize black people as well as white people,” he added. He said 90 percent of the Gross National Product goes to one percent of the population, headed by the Rockefellers and the Morgans. To illustrate the power the giant monopolies have at their fingertips to use for controlling the police, the courts and politicians, he broke down the Prudential-Manufacturers Hanover Trust Company into some of its Gillette, Sperry Rand, component parts Campbell’s Soup, Chrysler, General Electric and Prudential Insurance. He said the Third World people have always been involved in a struggle against “imperailism,” and giant monopolies, and that black people in America have suffered by Ken Norman Spectrum Staff Writer — violent “If you don’t believe in revolution, you don’t believe in socialism.” “If you’re not talking about armed struggle, you’re not talking about revolution.” Throughout his'speech in Clark Hall last Friday night, Imamu Amiri Baraka (Levoi Jones), stressed the necessity of violent revolution. Baraka is a noted black playwright, poet and chairman of the Congress of African People. Laying down a historical background, Baraka said the civil rights movement in the 1960’s was led by the ”black bourgeoisie.” Malcolm X strove for a black nation based on “black self determination.” This philosophy evolved into Rap Brown’s “Black Power,” Baraka said. He claimed the leaders of the 60’s were all killed off, jailed, or bought off by the Central Intelligence Agency. “We went from ‘Black Power’ in the 60’s to black capitalism in the 70’s,” he said. As a result, there are “black mayors, black congressmen, generals, millionaire athletes with round beds and Rolls-Royces, entertainers with gold Rolls-Royces, and wall-to-wall black beaureaucrats.” — “double oppression” not only through racism, but as workers in relationship to capitalism. Black women suffer “triple oppression,” he observed. Confrontation The Congress of African People believes that forceful overthrow of the U.S. is necessary to end this oppression, he said. “Rockefeller’s not going to wake up in no sweat and say, ‘I been wrong. I’m going to give the money back to the people’,” Baraka joked.

For an estimated one and a half hours, the black poet liberator had this large handful of people in his possession. It was one and a half hours of screaming poetic sanity and deliberation on U.S. political corruption with depth, earnestness, and articulation. One and a half solid hours without hesitation or faultering of loud and angry statements concerning our present lives. Some were offended, if not hurt by his blunt and stark exclamations. Throughout the presentation there were applause and words of appreciation. Others neither clapped nor made a sound, but gazed at Imamu unflinching, taking everything he said with dead seriousness. At the end, many gave him a standing ovation, and I wondered how he managed to stop his talking, such a tireless engergy powerhouse. He told the audience what his plans were. He would speak about black nationalism and the coming of socialism, giving “facts, some basic kinds of insight” and a promise to answer questions. The first part of his talk was concerned a lot with history, black history during the sixties, the American negro’s relation to Africa and various black heroes of the sixties. He gave the details, the plain talking facts about revolution, about the need for violence in order to cause revolution. He quoted Malcolm X like a chant. Much of what he said had a unique kind of rhythm, a complete clarity. When he told us about H. Rap Brown, the crowd went nuts.

Baraka spoke specifically of capitalistic corruption, shooting Rockefeller down ... ... repeatedly. He cited how the laws of our society are kepi to maintain capitalistic corruption, the wrong people are in jail (“criminals running around owning the the government makes nothing of racism, etc., and you couldn’t go on vacation where Nixon and his clan are doing time because you couldn’t afford the luxury, etc. He was shooting facts at us like bullets one atop the other, and through his gist, expressed an anger jails”) but poverty, hot and acute. A lot was said, more than what is shown here, the theme of violence over religion, third world oppression, ‘oats’ Ford, capitalistic monopolies, he had a lot to say, but I’ll leave it at that. You might say 1 found it interesting and was not very upset that he didn’t recite any of his poems. �Rising expectations Toronto held together by appeal and charm by Fredda Cohen Feature Editor famous Toronto subway is litehlly spotless. The buildings compose a mixture of old and new. While many of them resemble ancient palaces, constructed of large stones and ornate decoration, the modern City Hall towers over them, two striking white structures, arched towards each other. Additionally, the 56-floor Dominion Tower offers a view of the entire city. Ninety-six acre Ontario Place, built on three man-made islands in the center of Lake Ontario, is functional as well as beautiful. The park has an 8,000 seat amphitheatre, multi-media and experimental theaters, tour boats, boutiques, pubs, and a large Children’s Village. The exhibits are closed during the winter, but the park is in use 24 hours year-round. With all the talk these days about large cities on the decline, Toronto still boasts bright lights, clean streets, proud citizens and rising expectatipns. The center of EnglishCanadianism, Toronto, is patterned after London and combines the best of four worlds French refinement, American technology, British government and Canadian ecological concern, according to Canadian representative Bernard Ferrier. It is the capital of the province of Ontario, and has a population of about 2 Vi million, making it the second largest city in Canada and one of the ten-most populous cities in North America. Toronto was founded by the French in 1749 as Fort Rouille, destroyed by the British in 1759, and replaced by Fort York.

Page five �NPCA efforts Environment, wildlife still in danger despite concern Despite the recent popularity of the ecology movement, America’s wildlife is still endangered, and the environmental situation continues to deteriorate, claims the National Parks and Conservation Association (NPCA). The NPCA says that the government agencies charged with protecting the flora and fauna of the national parks, and air and water quality, have been neglecting their duties. The NPCA points to the fact that there are now only about 180 grizzly bears left in the lower 48 states, and that their numbers are depleted every year by hunters who legally shoot them outside of the national park boundaries during migration times. In contrast, the NPCA notes that vast sums of money have been raised to protect the 2000 remaining tigers in India. The problem of waterfowl poisoning is another serious issue, the NPCA insists, and one that could be rectified with a reasonable amount of exertion. The group explains that lead shot poisoning takes the lives of over 2.5 million birds every year, but that these deaths are not caused by wounds, but by the birds’ ingestion of the shot. A ban on lead shot, as the Fish and Wildlife Service has proposed, would eliminate lead poisoning among waterfowl, while giving hunters an opportunity to hunt using steel shot, which has been available since the 1940’s. Hazy horizons Air quality is being threatened in the southwestern part of the country by the Four Corners Power Plant, which is located in the midst of a cluster of national parks in New Mexico, Utah, Colorado and Arizona. Emissions from this plant have reportedly produced a haze reaching 150 miles to the north and 150 miles to the southwest. The NPCA, founded in 1919 as an independent organization, now claims some 50,000 members. Its establishing direct working main focus is of the executive branch agencies with relationships of the government, in order to benefit the Endangered redwoods The NPCA has been fighting in California for years to protect the redwood forests, which are being threatened. The destruction of the watersheds and the forests around Redwood Park has resulted in considerable damage by flooding and siltation. The NPCA maintains that since the government is not exercising its legal authority to protect the redwoods, conservationist groups must mount an environment. effort to demand immediate action.

This past summer a University of Texas coed was dragged from a city laundromat at knife-point and raped in a nearby field. Early in September, a Colorado College woman was raped by two men while she and her boyfriend slept campus outside near campus. In spite of harsher legislation against and the growing popularity of women’s self-defense classes, rape still runs rampant on college campuses where young women often walk alone at night. College students have a false sense of security because they feel secluded, a Deputy District Attorney in Colorado Springs said. But “colleges are no longer sacrosanct; they have become target areas,” warned a Colorado College dean. According to FBI statistics, there is one rape every ten minutes nationally. National statistics also indicate that 50 percent of rapists know their victims. But knowing the attacker has rarely helped a woman escape him successfully. To elude a rapist, the woman should either outwit him emotionally, as one expert advises, or defend herslef physically as others rapists Do not panic Self-defense classes, which have been springing up on campuses all over the country, train women to react more confidently to surprise encounters. “The courses are effective,” one instructor said, “because they teach a person not to panic.” Most of the college self-defense courses, often offered for regular credit, teach women to protect themselves using a smattering of martial arts and common sense. Women are taught to use their hands and feet in punching, stabbing and kicking motions. Other measures involve the use of pressure points, such as the eyes and throat which are very vulnerable. •“Women have been conditioned to believe that they can’t defend themselves,” an Iowa Rape Crisis Center worker said. “But there are things women can learn to do to prevent rape. We don’t always have to give in to men.” But one man who believes the rapist should be appeased rather than aggravated is Frederic Storaska, author of a book on rape and a lecturer on the college circuit. Storaska believes that the woman’s best defense against a rapist is to “alter his inferiority complex.” To achieve this, Storaska said, the woman should try to evoke pity for herself. She could tell him she’s pregnant or handicapped or that she had been raped by her stepfather while an adolescent. The best method of all, Storaska said, is to go along with him. “If you treat him like a recommend. The rapist, according to a Denver, Colorado policeman, usually “tests" the victim before he attacks. He will make some suggestive remark and if the reaction is frightened uncertainty or embarassment, raving maniac, then believe me, he won’t disappoint you,” Storaska warned. Changes in law While colleges install elaborate security to keep stranger’s off-campus and campus men’s groups set up escort services, state legislatures have joined in the battle against rape. At least 10 states changed their rape laws in 1974 and 12 other revisions in state’s laws were under consideration. The changes marked the beginning of a shift in society’s attitude away from considering the victim the provocateur of attacks. In many states, new rape laws specify that evidence of a rape victim’s sexual conduct other than with the defendant cannot be introduced at the suspect’s trial unless the victim introduces it. In other states, victims no longer need medical evidence of a rape. Now a rape victim’s word that she was raped is sufficient evidence that a rape actually occurred. devices Another legislative change concerned the definition of rape and sexual assault. In many states, if a sexual assault occurred, but not a rape per se, the assailant was charged- only with disorderly conduct which in most places is only a misdemeanor carrying a maximum sentence of six months in jail. Both Michigan and Iowa broadened the definitions of criminal sexual assault last year and set different punishments for different degrees of assault. Women’s groups have been credited with the new impetus for revising rape laws. But lawmakers often agreed that raditional rape laws had put the wrong person on trial. “Skepticism toward women was built into the laws but it wasn’t necessary,” New York Assistant District Attorney Jack Litman said, “since it already existed in the police, the jury, the judges, even the DA’s office. What we’re getting now is just long-needed balancing.” MobT 1 Bob and Don's Serving North S' South Campuses Towing (CPS) What is likely to be the definitive work on the frisbee has been compiled by a Grove, California practicing psychiatrist. In a 221-page treatise, Dr. Stancil Johnson explores the history of the saucer, as well as frisbee aerodynamics, turbulance in flight and medical problems for frisbee players. - Johnson’s interest in the frisbee goes beyond the book, however. He has written Forest Lawn Memorial Parks and Mortuaries requesting that upon death, his body be cremated and mixed with the finest grade raw industrial polyethylene to make 25 high-quality, professional model frisbees. Forest Lawn, however, has only agreed to the cremation Blue jean blues (CPS) Blue jean afficionados are paying more at the market these days. In the past year, the price of a pair of Levi’s has doubled. Increased consumer demand for blue jeans has created a shortage of cotton, the major ingredient in denim, the Levi Strauss company reports. And the shortage of cotton, aided by inflation, has jacked up the cost of blue jeans. Company officials don’t anticipate that a higher price tag will keep customers away. “There’s no end in sight,” said one Levi Strauss employee, referring to the sales potential of blue jeans. The jean look is so popular that Levi Strauss has expanded its sportswear line to include jumpers, more skirts, trenchcoats, bathing suits, and recently denim tuxedos. - - - It used to be different (CPS) South Carolina students just aren’t that interested in sex anymore, if the enrollment in a - Carolina short course in The course was indication. lovemaking cancelled this year due to lack of student interest.

Every Monday night at 7 p.m., they filled the ampitheater with 300 to 400 people.” Bryan said attendance dropped, either because “the excitement wore off or everyone knew what they wanted to. Only a handful of students started attending and 1 just felt it was no longer needed.” What the University needs now, Bryan said, is a course in the psychological implications of sex or a course on venereal disease. • & RoadService Complete car service - SPECIAL - I STUDENT DISCOUNT On Repairs With i.D. 1375 AAillersport Hwy.

Ronnie Selk Laura Bartlett To the Editor: As a past employee of Food Service, and a sympathizer with the letter appearing in The Spectrum on Monday Oct. 20, I am writing this letter. If for no other reasons, Food Service should be boycotted for skyrocketing prices, poor quality of food, and the haphazard dismissals of employees. Food Service is also infested with roaches. These unsanitary conditions, for which students are paying exhorbitant prices to perpetuate, must be rectified. I find it truly abhorrant to be joined for lunch by a four-legged insect. Food Service is a necessary evil on this campus which all students must endure. I know that bugs are considered a delicacy in some countries. Alas, I feel that most students would rather not ingest these pests. We as students are being ripped each time we purchase something to eat or drink from Food Service. These conditions should not be allowed to continue. Apathy is all too accepted on this campus. As students we must unite, boycott Food Service and flood Director Don Hosey’s office with letters until this terrible problem is corrected. A former employee �rfe.pRe&WNT THE —OfUTECLSTATES! OF <S>n7<r fag*. Broader, sports coverage To the Editor. I would like to identify the direction towards which The Spectrum's sports staff policy is headed. It would seem that those areas of campus life that are not predominate are devoid of attention. A recent conversation with the sports editor led me to believe that “club” sports necessarily exert lower Minority advancement To the Hditor While reading Philip Moran’s commentary on discrimination against blacks in today’s job market (The Spectrum October 15), it became apparent to me that his evaluation does not accurately reflect the situation. The major inadequacy of the analysis is the author’s reliance upon anachronous statistics as , supporting evidence his opinion Social and economic attitudes toward the black in America have taken many steps forward since compilation of the quoted 1972 statistics. Job promotion figures dating as far back as 1960 are of little significance when analyzing the condition in 1975. It is evident that racial discrimination existed in most areas of economic life in the 1960’s. The recent federal legislation requiring non-discriminatory hiring practices, however, is beginning to have its desired effects. Many companies, (especially large corporations), and industries that handle government contracts, are either required to hire employees on a quota basis or have adopted “affirmative action” programs. Sears, Roebuck and Co., for example, requests that its employees sign a statement agreeing “. , . to make special effort to attract new minority . . . employees to Sears, and, where their present level of skill and knowledge might not be sufficient for a particular job, to assist them . .” It is true that in the current labor force most blacks are situated near the bottom with respect to such criteria as income, job status and unemployment rates. This condition is the residual effect of the structure of past American society. Under current non-discriminatory practices, blacks are being offered opportunities to raise themselves above the lower level they presently occupy. Whites in the same economic class as the bulk of minorities, however, are not generally being offered similar opportunities. The best method of presenting a undistorted view of the results of current hiring practices is not to quote statistics referring to the quantity of blacks in professional and managerial occupations. These occupations, especially upper level managerial positions, are usually filled with persons who have advanced over many years through the various levels of a business. No one, regardless of race, can expect to be given a job of this nature without working up . level. To expect an immediate increase from the current “three to five percent” blacks in management is cleArly unreasonable. What should be evaluated is the increasing proportion of black workers entering corporations at the previously restricted lower levels, from which they can advance. The effects of affirmative action policies are long run; the statistics of the future are the ones that will show how effective the non-discriminatory activities of today are. It is immediately clear, however, that discrimination against blacks in the present job market is far below the level at which it was in the 1960’s and early 1970’s. Blacks and whites are beginning to effectively work together without the economic exploitation of blacks which W.E.B. Dubois claimed to be a requisite of ■ to such a capitalism. potential impact upon the university community. He appeared to feel that, due to the imperative coverage of varsity sports (e.g. wrestling, basketball, etc.), there was no room in the paper for club sports. I find this attitude especially disconcerting, coming from someone with a city background behind him. I worry that this attitude of dealing only with the biggest will permeate the sports section as a whole and prevent it from seeing many informative and varied sources of potential improvement. I shudder to think that the editor is content to simply take up where others have left off without adding something imaginative of his own. The recent story on the Watkins Glen Grand Prix leads me to believe that he is capable of reporting events other than those which have a great effect on the University. I credit the editor with the ability to courageously abandon precedent in search of uniqu and stimulating material. To consider the majc (mostly male) varsity sports as the sum total c interesting sources is to do The Spectrum, it readers, and himself gross injustice. Bill I eke. Corrected quote To the Editor I would appreciate very much if you corrected what was published in the October 17 issue of The Spectrum, in the article, ""Foreign Panelists Discuss Roles of Men and Women in the World.” What I said in the panel discussion was that the Brazilian women constitute only 20 percent of the labor force in the country, and that two-thirds of those 20 percent work in the fields, and not “two-thirds of the country’s field work is done by women,” which is absurd. Neusa Long United Nations deceit To the Editor* Those of us who had placed our hopes for a peaceful world in the United Nations were profoundly shocked by the recent action of the U.N. Social, Humanitarian and Cultural Committee. In voting 70-29 with 27 abstentions that “Zionism is a form of racism and racial discrimination” the Committee showed utter disregard for the facts and for moral standards. U.S. Delegate Leonard Garment hit the nail right on the head when he commented: “This is an obscene actr This resolution places the work of the United Nations in jeopardy.” He further called it a “supreme act of deceit” and a “massive attack on the moral realities of the world. Under the guise of a Element program to eliminate racism, the United Nations is at the point of officially endorsing anti-Semitism, one of the oldest and most virulent forms of racism known to human history.” It is indeed a sad day for the U.N. and for all peace loving people when 70 nations, consisting mainly of the Communist and Arab blocks, team up to destroy every vestige of moral stature which the U N. needs in order to realize its high goals. It is a day matched in moral corruption only by the day a few months ago on which a standing ovatign was given to a terrorist who unabashedly displayed the terrorist gun while addressing the world forum of peace.

Nightlife When the sun goes down in Toronto, the streets become alive with glaring neon-lights and loud music. And people. The downtown streets are filled with people, gazing at shops, testing out bars and restaurants, listening to musicians playing in the streets. The night life in Toronto is as loud and brash as New York City, but friendlier. Yonge Street is the city’s main drag and social nucleus. Merchants keep their shops open late, while craftsmen line the streets with jewelry, leather goods and other works lined up neatly on tables. The people are always congenial The downtown area also has many crowded discotheques and bars. Most of these places serve food as well as liquor, and have fairly small, packed dance floors. It is possible to get any type of nourishment on Yonge Street, from McDonald’s to a five-course Italian dinner. Mr.Submarine, which offers a limited, but cheap menu, stands on practically every corner. Toronto’s Chinatown is two blocks from City Hall. Numerous restaurants and food shops occupy this area, as well as stores that sell Chinese pottery, materials, novelties, books, magazines and posters. All this and only 90 miles from Buffalo.

After Ford near-misses by Paul Buttino Spectrum Staff Writer The issue of gun control looms in the forefront of many discussions in the wake of President Ford’s recent brushes with would-be assassins. New York State is said to have the toughest gun control laws in the country, but these laws are merely to license an individual’s constitutional right to keep and bear arms. There is no guarantee that the person who usually keeps a shotgun locked in a desk drawer will not succumb to certain pressures and inflict harm on others. In one such case, witnessed recently by a South Buffalo police officer, a man walked into a precinct, pulled a gun on an officer and threatenedhis life. Before a pistol permit is issued in N.Y. State, the applicant’s mental health is checked with the Department of Mental Hygiene. Quadruplicate sets of fingerprints are taken. One is sent to Albany for criminal identification, a second is forwarded to the FBI in Washington, D.C., and the remaining two cards are kept on file with the Investigating authority and the state police in Albany. After the investigation, the applicant must go before a judge (James Kane in Erie County) to explain why he or.she needs to carry a weapon. Good reasons “There are 7,600. reasons for strong gun laws the 7,600 murders in which guns were used in committing them,” a recent Los Angeles Times editorial said. Harold Schroeder, director of the Shooter’s Committee on Political Education (SCOPE), said there are 20,000 gun-related laws and ordinances in the U.S. “We don’t need more gun laws," Shroeder said. “We need to enforce the one’s we have.” Many lawyers argue that the second amendment to the constitution which states that a well regulated militia and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is necessary to the security of a free state, only protects the military’s, not the individual citizen’s right to bear firearms. They state two U.S. Supreme Court cases to U.S.v. Cruikshank support their inteipretation (1875), and U.S.v. Adams (1935) which — — - concluded that “the right to bear arms is not granted by the. constitution,” and the Second Amendment refers to the militia, not to individual rights. The Supreme Court also ruled in 1939 that at the time the Second Amendment was drafted, men enlisted in the militia were expected to come prepared for military service by supplying their own arms. This is no longer the case. A recent Gallup Poll found that 25 percent of the households queried admitted to owning at least one gun. Based on this finding, it’s been estimated that there are about 200 million private guns in this country. Of these, however, only 20'million are licensed. The others fall under the categories of collector’s items, or trap and target guns. Saturday night specials Statistics have also shown that the majority of murders are committed with guns and the majority of these are handguns. The results of a study by the Chicago Police Department pointed to the fact that guns are the" most dangerous and readily available individual weapons. President John Kennedy was assassinated with a mail-order rifle. Since then, the laws have been changed so that weapons may no longer be purchased through the mail. However, guns are still easy to obtain. On the Black Market, for example, an unregistered handgun can be had for under $20. Lynette (Squeaky) Fromme and Sarah Jane Moore proved to America that presidential assassinations can happen at any time, even with strict precautions. Ford’s secret servicemen knew Fromme, a member of the Charles Manson family, was in town the day of her attempted assassination of the President. However, she was not under surveillance. Even more astonishing was the fact that Moore was picked up with a pistol on the day she shot at Ford, but was set free after subsequent questioning. Karl Heiser, a Cincinnati psychologist, said in a recent Los Angeles Times article that about 10,000 psycho gun-addicts lived in his community. “Many sexually inadequate men drive fast, powerful cars to make them feel sexually potent, while others use guns as sex symbols,” Heiser wrote.

The Buffalo Wrestling team will host the Polish National Wrestling team on November 1 at 7:30 p.m. in Clark Hall. Later in the month, the basketball Bulls will host the Barbados National Basketball team. The Polish team will face a squad of present and former Buffalo mat stars, according to wrestling coach Ed Michael. Michael will have to assemble a -strong team since the Polish wrestlers have won several gold and silver medals in both Olympic and World competition. Ex-stars to compete the former Buffalo stars that are participate are Jim Young, Emad to expected Faddoul, Charlie Wright, Bill Jacoutot and Tony Policare. Young compiled the best record ever in dual competition for a Buffalo wrestler. Faddoul has a chance to wrestle for the Lebanese National Team in the upcoming 1976 Olympics, and was a star on last year’s nationally ranked Buffalo team, as was Young and Wright. Policare represented the Bulls several years ago. He is Among Veteran’s football currently an assistant coach at Slippery Rock, and last year finished third in the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) Championships. The match will be played under Olympic rules, which puts more emphasis on the feet and pinning the opponent than NCAA rules do. The remaining half of the match will be Greco-Roman wrestling, which does not allow any holds below the waist. The UB Veterans Association (VA) has been challenged to a football game by the Niagara University VA to be played here this Friday, October 25.

Athletic exchange The match came about as part of a cultural exchange program. Harvey Rogers, Wrestling Chairman of the Niagara district of the AAU, first approached Michael with the idea of hosting the Poles. “We feel that this is very good for the University, the community and our program,” said M Chael Ml Because of the AAU’s involvement, Buffalo will Polish not have to pay for the cost of bringing the team here.

The Bulls were ranked-tenth in New York State, marking the first time in Buffalo history that a soccer team has earned such a distinction. “They definitely were up,” said Buffalo coach Sal Esposito. “It gave them something to protect.” Buffalo protected its new ranking well by whipping Geneseo 5-3 at Rotary Field. Last year, the Knights beat the Bulls 3-0, but according to Esposito, the big difference was in the refereeing. ‘The refs refused to call physical violence [last year),” he noted and “they (Geneseo) played a very physical game.” If Geneseo plays a very physical game, they also play a very-sloppy game. Twice within a one-minute period in the first half, a Geneseo player deflected a pass or shot by Buffalo into the Knights goal. Easy come, easy go Yet it wouldn’t be fair to claim that Geneseo handed the game to Buffalo, since as Esposito pointed out, the Bulls also gave away one goal. Emmanuel Kulu, who was playing defense as a replacement for the injured Wain Reid, intercepted a Geneseo pass and then tried to pass it back to goalie Brian Smaszcz. This is a common tactic since the goalie can "j Up to $1.25 OFF on orders of chicken wings Now!

However, instead of passing to Smaszcz, Kulu gave it right to Geneseo’s Bobby Ceran, who then shot it into the net for Geneseo’s only first half goal. Buffalo’s remaining goals were earned. Buffalo’s Mike Pietrasik opened the scoring at 12:48. He took a pass from Pete Weidler and then got hit by a Geneseo player, but still managed to send the ball into the upper left-hand corner of the goal. Daddario tips in two George Daddario tapped in two rebounds to build the Bulls’ lead to 5-1 after one minute of play in the second half. Up to this point, Buffalo was dominating the action. Then, everything turned. For a while it seemed Buffalo could not get the ball out of its end, and when it did, the players had difficulty mounting an attack. “They (Geneseo) were up for it in the second half,” Esposito explained. “Our guys were playing the man’s feet instead of the ball. That makes a big difference.” Geneseo managed to score two goals in the second half, and should have had a third when Bob Behrens missed an open net, but Buffalo’s defense proved to be just strong enough to preserve the win. The Bulls, now 7-2 on the year, will face McMaster University this afternoon at Rotary Field at 3 p.m., hoping to improve its high ranking even more.

The REPRINTEO Page fourteen . FROM THE OCTOBER 1975 ISSUE OF READER'S DI6EST The Spectrum . Wednesday, 22 October 1975 companies estimate that this regulation will add at least 75 cents to the retail cost of each tire. In other words, according to the manufacturers, if you buy four tires, you will pay $3 for both symbols you can’t understand and additional testing that will add nothing to the safety already required hy previous regulations. Presumably, astute consumers will bone up on traction, wear and heatgeneration information before they buy their tires. We must ask ourselves Is this regulation really worth the cost ? Another example: flammability standards for upholstered furniture suggested by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The regulations, aimed principally at cigarettecaused fires, are expected to increase prices of upholstered sofas and armchairs by up to 25 percent. The furniture industry fears that the standards could eliminate about 70 percent of fabrics now made for upholstery. If we, through our surrogates, decide that it is correct for the government to impose such flammability standards, then we must be prepared to pay the cost the next time we buy a couch. And we may not like the feel or look of the newer, nonflammable fabrics. What all this means is that we, as part of a complex and interrelated economy, cannot merely wish for or advocate some benefit for a “remote” part of our society. We must also be prepared to accept a part of the financial burden. Arc we prepared to pay higher electric bills when we ask a utility in our area to provide years.

But when it comes to social goals, we may not be fully aware of the facts, mainly because the decision-making is in the hands of our surrogates— Congressmen and regulatory-agency officials. Whether the decisions they make for us are wise or unwise is ultimately decided by the voters—although it may take a long time. But whether these decisions will cost us money has already been immutably decided by economic reality. Americans, for instance, have spent an estimated S2.4 billion extra on their automobiles since 1972 to. accommodate various government-mandated combinations of wires, lights and buzzers to force them to buckle their scat belts. Ordered “on behalf of” the public, these devices proved to be overwhelmingly unpopular, and the law requiring them was finally rescinded by Congress as a “social goal” not worth the cost.

The cut, which was the fifth since the gym was originally proposed in 1972, was made without any input from the Athletic Department. In May of 1975, the facility was reduced by 29,998 net square feet. This cutback was accepted by the Athletic Department, although it was considered a drop below the tolerable level, because of an understanding that the Construction Fund would not impose any further cutbacks. The latest cutback was due to a miscalculation on the part ol the Construction Fund which had planned to include more room in the building than could possibly be contained within its walls. Martin McIntyre, assistant Dean of the School of Health Education and the person in charge of planning the new gym, believes a miscalculation ol this sort is inexcusable by a professional staff. Strange restriction Furthermore, McIntyre has not been allowed to speak directly with the Construction Fund or the chief architect. The Facilities Planning office was also told it cannot communicate with the architect. McIntyre helped plan four similar facilities in the past, and he said he had never encountered a restriction such as this before. He also said he did not know why the Construction Fund imposed this restriction. Student Athletic Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia also pointed out that the Amherst Gym was the first major project ever done by the architect. “This latest action [the communications restriction) once more points out the lack of flexibility in the state's bureaucratic processes, and is a violation of the principles ol programming and design,” Delia said. In terms of individual items, the cut means a reduction in the fieldhouse seating from 10,000 to 7,500; the triple gymnasium will be reduced to a double gym; the number of handball courts will be reduced from 18 to 12 and squash courts from 8 to 6; all lounges in the gym have been removed; and a doubling up in all offices will be necessary. Too small “For a campus of this size, the gym we are getting is absurd,” Delia said. He noted that the gym will be smaller than Brockport's. even though the student population there is one-quarter of this University’s. He also pointed out that there are now six squash courts in Clark Hall and these are not nearly sufficient. “The conditions we have now are going to be continued," Delia said. Delia added that most of the cuts were designed to save as much of the fieldhouse as possible since it could be used for concerts and other non-athletic functions, making it more valuable to the University. The pool was also spared from being cut, although it could be in danger if more cuts are forthcoming. McIntyre’s failure to contact the architect also has led to some The fieldhouse, with a capacity of 7,500, has only design one entrance. Not only is this possibly a violation of local fire ordinances, but it could lead to massive problems before and after games, Delia said. Additionally, the proposed gym does not have a women’s locker and the men’s locker room is nowhere near the equipment room. room, Help on the way? McIntyre does not expect to get any help from President Robert Ketter or the administration. “I don’t think they can help us because of the communications restriction and the economic situation in the state,” McIntyre said. President Ketter is on record as saying “Three-quarters of the chicken is better than none,” in reference to the Amherst Gym. Delia and Student Association President Michele Smith are planning to meet with members of the Construction Fund in Albany this week to discuss the problem. “We’re going to insist on a rollback of the latest reductions,” Delia said. “We’re going to do our best to change their policites.” He has already obtained the backing of the Student Association of the State University (SASU). “The people who are suffering in the end are the students,” Delia Said. “Every day that we delay, the gym gets smaller and smaller.” Feature Editor Creative Arts Therapy reaches beyond the ordinary realm of verbal communications through the use of art, music, dance and poetry. As greater creativity is exhibited, the patient becomes more self aware and sociable. The creative are arts used to stimulate personal sensations of shape', size, texture, color, spatial movements and sound. This type of therapy provides freedom and self expression, and yet maintains a sense of order and structure. Kor a patient who asks himself “Who am I?” art becomes a means for experimenting and exploring one’s feelings. “People the language of art,” explained internalize •C.eorgianna Jungles, an art therapist at Buffalo State College. "Pointers, craftsmen, musicians and dancers may function belter through their own chosen medium of expression than trying to subordinate it to the verbal model of psychotherapy.” said Curt Boenheim in the American Journal of Art Therapy. Art therapy “I have to respect students who will think of and design a program for themselves,” she said, but added that she hoped a formal program to establish proper training would be established. therapy training began around the end of II with the return of war veterans. In an effort to rehabilitate some of these soldiers, Marian Chase utilized dance therapy, training “people who were interested in dance and reflected a lot of their inner self in their dancing.” Like art therapy, an enormous interest emeged in dance therapy in the 1960’s. Music therapy, one of the oldest, consists of Dance World War four components singing, rhythmics, body movement and listening. This therapy is designed to increase the patient’s concentration, memory retention, conceptual development, rhythmic responses, movement behavior, verbal and non-verbal retention and auditory and visual discriminatiotK “Through group interaction, social responses and self-esteem are increased,” said Ruth Spero, music therapist at the Buffalo Psychiatric Hospital. Music therapy is practiced on a one-to-one basis. The music therapist must have a thorough anthropology. knowledge of music, sociology, — therapy is usually practiced in groups, it is not necessarily a group activity. Besides working with in-patients in psychiatric hospitals, therapists also work in children’s centers, Art although mental health clinics, public and private schools, university counseling centers, prisons, ghetto service centers, residential treatment centers and research centers. Many have their own private practices. Although painting, for instance, is an essentially individual activity, it may offer a person a comfort’able opportunity for social exchange. The art gives the therapist a personal insight into the artist's personality. Movement, sound or image "Through a movement, sound or image, a person’s verbal interactions with the therapist may increase." said Jungles. She stressed, however, that "these therapies are suggested lor persons who have limited verbal skills." A major difference between art therapy and art education entails the emphasis on skills. In art therapy, skills and art techniques are used to facilitate personal experience. If loo much technique is stressed, this might inttrfere with the non-verbal However, knowledge ol art communication education is useful to the application of art therapy. I he foundation lor art therapy was laid sometime in the late ITJO’s, although its largest growth has been within the last ’0 years. The American Art Therapy Association, founded in 1969, began with 25 members and currently has well over 1,200. In Buffalo. Buff State offers the only formal art therapy program which includes a masters program in art education, concentrating on art as therapy. It is also possible to get an art therapy degree at this University, through the special majors program. Dance therapy Dance therapy has gained broader recognition in the last decade, but Davida Navarre, who teaches a course in dance therapy at this University, believes that proper training has not been adequately emphasized. “Dance therapy is such a powerful therapeutictool, that the therapist should have a background in psychotherapy techniques as well as training in movement awareness,” she stated. The dance therapist moves with the person or the people in the group by reflecting their style in his or her own movement, she explained. This should hopefully make it easier for them to express feelings and emotions that are a part of them, but have been difficult to realize and/or communicate. Navarre sees dance therapy as an approach to psychotherapy. “My own approach is to combine movement and verbal modes tacitly, using movement when the individual seems to be stuck in the words, or when a person doesn't seem to have strong sense of him/herself as an entity. Then 1 use words to help the individual integrate the experience.” When Navarre came to the University this semester, she found that some students had already established a special dance major. « psychology and biology. To be recognized by the National Association for Music .Therapy, one must have a bachelor of arts degree in music therapy and experience six months of clinical training in an approved training area. The only such program in Western New York exists in Buffalo Psychiatric Hospital. Spero said a music therapy course was being planned for next semester at this University. Poetry is probably the least known of all the therapies. “Poetry helps people handle their feelings, by stirring up, releasing or calming emotions," wrote Jack Leedy in Poetry the Healer. Writing poetry also has a healing effect, especially when the poem is produced spontaneously Poetry therapy “When he (the patient) tells himself that he is writing a poem, he is opening the door to freedom of expression. He is saying that he does not have to make anyone understand him, and that he does not have to involve anyone in particular,” explained Leedy. Fiction and fact may be used in conjunction with each other, without explanation. The person is free to use words and images. In many settings, a team of therapists is used, depending on the situation. The team might include an exceptional education teacher, an occupational therapist, a physician, a psychiatrist and an art therapist. The communication between patient and therapist is very important. As Jungles said, “people are turned on to the therapist as well as the therapy.” �Scottsboro Nine Alabama prisons: hellholes These conditions have given rise to an inmate resistance movement in the 1970’s, spearheaded by Inmates For Action (IFA). The 1FA, which grew out of a spontaneous sitdown strike in 1972, viewed itself not only as a vehicle to fight for fundamental human rights within the prison system of prison struggle. Alabama, but as a means to attain basic technical and political by Brian Land education, through sharing and Spectrum Staff Writer teaching each other.

Suspicious death Meanwhile, a move is underway to IFA Chairman Dobbins had Two former from the Atmore Prison Farm in Alabama will speak about the phson movement they helped form on Wednesday, October 22 at 7:30 p.m. in Room 148 Diefendorf. The following commentary provides background information on the Alabama Editor’s note: inmates ‘ been shot and wounded but conversed with inmates while being carried out on a stretcher. Yet he was pronounced dead on arrival at Mobile General Hospital with nine ax-like wounds. Eyewitnesses jwear that these cuts had to be made after Dobbins was removed from the prison yard with Escambia County Sheriff Scotty Byrnes. Forty-one inmates were indicted on charges stemming from the rebellion in which a guard was killed also. However, no one has ever been charged with Dobbins’ murder. In March 1973, a trustee found a “death list” of IFA leaders on the warden’s desk which included restore the death penalty through a law which makes it mandatory for first degree murder. Overcrowding at all levels of the penal system has long been a problem and recently reached epidemic proportion. Prisoners often have minimal room even for sleeping. Health care is nonexistent, facilitating the spread of disease and infection.

Four I FA members have been killed and the remainder suffer constant harassment and frequent transfers between Dobbins, prisons. Housewife and student worth the same, report says The typical housewife contributes as (CPS) much to the U.S. economy as the typical student, retiree or person in an institution, according to a recent Socal Security Administration study called “The Economic Value of a Housewife.” There are 35.2 million women currently keeping house in the U.S. The Social Security Administration computed their worth strictly on the physical or mechanical tasks they perform. The conclusion was that housework is valued at between $5,300 and $7,500 a year. Before this study, the Social Security Administration used the average domestic’s salary as the value of a housewife. Others occasionally threw in prostitute’s fees as part of the calculation. — Splattered pie prompts battery charges It used to be funny when the dullest (CPS) professor got a pie in the face during last year’s pie throwing fad. It wasn’t very funny, however, when a professor chased a pie thrower out of the classroom and pressed battery charges against him. But last month the pie thrower got off the hook temporarily when a Kansas District Court jury couldn’t make up its mind.

The awards have been reserved for men since they were established in 1902, based on a stipulation later formalized by an act of Parliament in the will of Cecil Rhodes, a British diamon millionaire and founder of the scholarships. Feminists have repeatedly criticized the awards for being openly discriminatory against women. The Rhodes trustees award 75 scholarships annually, with each scholarship providing about $5,000 a year for two year’s of study at Oxford — — - University.

These- defendants became known as the Atmore-Holman Brothers. During their brief trials, often lasting less than a day, two brothers were found guilty ot murder; two were found guilty of murder and assault with intent to murder; two others were declared innocent when the state’s witnesses contradicted themselves too often. The Atmore-Holman Brothers Defense Committee is organizing a tour of the northeast by Mafundi and Lumpen. Mafundi served all but four months of a thirteen-year sentence for allegedly stealing $38 from a service station despite conclusive evidence that he was elsewhere when the crime was committed and an eyewitness description of the thief did not fit him. At one point, Mafundi spent 126 days in a row in the dog house (no bed, no clothes, no light, no heat, bread and water every other day, etc.) for his participation in the inmate movement. Since his release from prison, he has been arrested eleven times, and charged twice. Once the charges were dropped before he went to trial and the other time, they were dropped after about five minutes into the trial. �Discontent with bookstore gudl&y expressed by /qcaftp A subcommittee of the Faculty Senate hits expressed disapproval with the quality of the University Bookstore, according to . last Thursday’s Reporter. The committee also recommended that the firm of Barnes and Noble be awarded the contract for the bookstore planned for the proposed commercial development project on the Amherst Campus. The Reporter cited numerous reasons for the faculty’s discontent with the University Bookstore’s services. Members of the committee complained that the Bookstore stocks an inadequate selection on non-required books, forging faculty to do much of their book-buying by mail. A better bookstore could afford to stock more trade books, explained one committee member, because it would attract thousands of dollars of faculty business now' being lost. Too many non-book items The Reporter also mentioned faculty criticism that the Bookstore management is not sufficiently responsive to the needs of faculty and “serious students,” in part, because its “protected” financial status makes it relatively invulnerable to the kind of consumer pressure that would influence a commercial bookseller. The over-abundance of non-book items is another source of discontent to ", Not a library “We’re not a library, and we are not selling (trade) books. I’m concerned that we don’t have a more representative selection, but we do try,” Moore said. Edward Doty, vice President for Finance and Management said the bookstore limits its supply of trade books because of a lack of space. Faculty Senate the However, secs “the primary Committee said it function of a good college bookstore as educational, to offer the academic community a large selection of significant books in the major disciplines.” The committee’s analysis of the Bookstore’s role conflicts with Doty’s, which holds that the Bookstore should serve primarily as a clearinghouse for required texts and a convenient source of school supplies. Non-required books must come second to these priorities. Doty said. New bookstore John Latona, President of the UBF Corporation, which was created to implement commercial development on the Amherst Campus, approved of the ability, that so motivation and individual choice become the only factors that come, the years In education must become more responsive to changing conditions and the objectives of students. There must be more options in attendance patterns, more diversity of programs among and within individual institutions, and to greater enrichment of programs. These are proposals made by the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education, summed up in a 1975 report entitled The College Student and Higher Education Policy. Proposals were aimed at post-high education more accessible to all potential students and more relevant to their diversified making interests. The number school of students enrolled on college campuses across the country has increased dramatically from 3,789,000 in 1960 to 9,571,000 in 1973. Less obvious, but possibly even more important, has been the growing diversity of college students. Increasingly, they come from all income groups and ethnic backgrounds, and have divergent political orientations and personal lifestyles. Their interests, abilities and career goals vary determine college attendance. Scores on standardized tests in college admissions decisions. Relying to such a great extent upon test scores implies a precision in the differing abilities of students that the Commission feels does not exist. “The more reliance placed upon a single test taken on a single day, without any other record that might possibly give a different picture of the student’s total performance . . . the more unfair the process is to the students, the greater the anxiety, and the less comprehensive the picture of the student’s ability,” the Commission states. The Commission calls for more experimentation with admissions requirements in all colleges and universities. This is especially needed at the most selective ones, whose practices tend to be copied weigh /* . committee memocrs Thomas E.

The committee selected Barnes and Noble since it has had experience running college bookstores. The firm has an excellent reputation in this respect, committee members said. But Latona stressed that since the UBF Corporation has not yet obtained a lease from the State University of New York for the commercial development, no tenants for the bookstore have yet been pursued. heavily elsewhere. Many After the matter of the lease is settled, Latona said, “1 will endeavor to get the best possible tenant, in terms of both quality of service and quality of the lease.” The committee also recommended to Latona that plans for the new bookstore include a faculty committee with student participation. Such a plan should be stipulated in a contract with Barnes and Noble, members said.

Feeble-minded Kamin recalled an I.Q. test administered during World War I by Robert Yerkes, which indicated that blacks scored lower on the tests than whites; that Latins and Slavs all scored very low, and that all immigrants generally were feeble-minded. However, after living in the United States for twenty years, the immigrants’ test scores were considerably higher, suggesting biases and prejudices in the past bv test administrators, and Yerkes, Kamin suggested. A favorite area of study in l.Q. testing involves identical twins. Sir Cyril reported correlations between separated identical twins, as high as .86 (maximum is 1.00), and therefore concluded that the environment in which a child is raised is not as important as the child’s genetic makeup. \ Fudging Kamin, on the other hand, asserted that Sir Cyril’s identical twin tests were inaccurate because the testing methods he used were often unknown and that test results might have been “adjusted.” Arthur Jensen, the controversial Berkeley professor who claims blacks are less intelligent than whites, traveled to London only to find Sir Cyril s data not available, except for the statistical results. Kamin said other studies show that separated identical twins are usually raised in similar environments, sometimes by a relative in the same city. Additionally, similar 1.0- studies of adopted children and “natural” children, are also riddled bv statistical fudging, Kamin maintained. He charged that “since their introduction, l.Q. tests have been instruments of oppression, and that the inheritability of l.Q. test scores is “zero.” In fact, John Watson’s claim that he can transform any baby into a doctor, lawyer or beggarman, may not be as ridiculous as it sounds, Kamin said.

Monday, 20 October 1975 �Impression of Soviet Union varies as Americans return by Nancy Ellett Spectrum Staff not always anxious to find out about the U.S.” Writer Impressions from American travelers in the Soviet Union range from admiration for the Soviet cooperative spirit, to pity for the fear that seems everpresent in their lives. Martin Pauly, one of a group of 70 students who spent six weeks in the Soviet Union last year, found that “the people were very friendly” and “really not that different from Americans.” Pauly’s,, group, which was sponsored by the American Institute of Foreign Study, met Soviet young people through a sort “friendship associations” of welcoming committee to — foreign tourists. They gathered at the Moscow House of Friendship to socialize and exchange opinions, though seldom did conversation touch upon political topics. This reticence on ideological differences between the United States and Russia was also observed by Pauly in his encounter with a group of Soviet students who were visiting the State University at Albany campus to study the English language last year. During his travels through the Soviet Union, the most probing questions asked of him were “what do your parents do?” and “do you have enough to eat?” In some cases, a new acquaintance would venture no further than to ask his nationality. He explained that in contrast to the American notion that people all over the world wonder what it’s like here, “people I met were Restricted associations John Riszko, an advisor for the Division of Undergraduate Education, noted that Soviet citizens are restricted in thenassociations with foreigners. Nevertheless, during his two one-week visits to the Soviet Union, he found the people to be warm and friendly. Riszko noted, however, that “fear is a driving force of Soviet mentality,” which may also explain their apprehension discussions differences. of concerning socio-political While many young people were away at summer campus during Pauly’s stay, he found little difficulty in meeting people, and was able to visit some in their homes. Most people in the city live in apartment buildings, which are “new and plain like dorms,” explained Pauly. Each family is allotted a per capita number of cubic meters for restriction, though, causes no shortage of individual privacy. In some cases, a small living room was filled with many of the “luxuries” so familiar living space. This space to Americans, including a television, stereo and comfortable furnishings, Pauly said. The consumer product market is limited, however, and according to all reports of visitors there, many attempts were made by Russians to purchase scarce commodities from tourists. A single pair of dungarees sold for up to 50 American dollars, and Pauly reported being offered $35 for a Buffalo Bills sweatshirt he was wearing. American and Western European cosmetics were also in demand. Extraordinary architecture Tourists in Moscow and Leningrad never fail to be impressed by the extraordinary architecture and the clean, modern mass transit systems. The streets are described as clean and safe at all hours. There are only 22 bars servicing all of Moscow, and many of these cater to foreigners, especially Americans, and are located in the most expensive hotels. Nevertheless, alcoholism is reported to be a problem in the Soviet Union. Paul Krehbiel, another student visitor to the Soviet Union, spent two weeks touring with 33 other young Americans, sponsored by the National Council of American—Soviet Friendship. He described the “Komsomol” (Young Communist League), to which over half the Soviet youth belong, as a voluntary political organization of people aged 14 to 28, with about 30 million members. Members are devoted to socialism and help to build their by volunteering during their summer months to work on one of the many on-going country projects. In one of these projects, described in Soviet Youth , a publication of Novostii Press Agency in Moscow, various building crews are creating a plant and a city on the bank of the Kama River. This “Kamaz” complex will supply the country with heavy duty trucks. The average age of the volunteers is 23. Refresher course. ...son., auly descrii u th. as equivalent to our Boy or Girl Scouts, Most members seem to be social or political aspirants that want to get ahead in life. He was struck by the difference in attitude of communist part members in the U.S.S.R. and left-wing persons in our country. “Only a small percent of actually in the are people communist part,” he explained, “and those who are, are very straight. They could be compared to the Democratic Party members in Buffalo in that they are the establishment and are community-minded, upright and citizens, very strict self-disciplined.” Pauly observed that “posters all over extol the virutes of the working people,” and manual labor is considered an integral part of life. For example Krehbiel looks forward to doing . manual labor. Cooperative spirit Typical of comments by Soviet young people quoted in Soviet Youth regarding their hard work and small amount of free time is the following quote by Gamid Gafarov, a turner at Sumgait Boiler works: “What is creative work? To my mind it is first of all the trace left by man in society, in the life of all men, in hearts and in objects. Whether it is a poem or a turbine is a matter of vocation.” There is an emphasis upon the importance of each individual’s contribution, be it a result of physical labor or artistic creativity. Soviets are thus able to foster a spirit of cooperation among laborers, academia and farmers alike. Winter break trip to Russia offered The University’s Council on International Studies is coordinating an eight-day educational trip to Moscow and Leningrad during the winter break. Open to the entire University community, the trip will take place January 3 through January 10. Nina Tretiak, Assistant Professor of Russian Language and Literature, will serve as the academic guide for the tour. The purpose of the trip is to inform students about Russia from geographical, cultural and historical perspectives, she said. “1 will try to stress the character of the Russian people and Russia’s development as a nation,” Tretiak explained. She said she will try to serve individual academic and sight-seeing interests as well as the interests of the whole tour group. Highlights of the trip include visits to the Kremlin and historical cathedrals, the Tretyakov Art Gallery, the Novoderichii Monastery and Cemetery, the National Gallery of Non-Russian Art, Moscow University, the Kremlin Historical Museum, and the Hermitage of Leningrad. Special religious excursions to churches will be featured on January 7, the Russian Orthodox Christmas. Side trips to schools and farms may be planned if there is student interest, Tretiak said. The Council on International Studies has set the price of the trip at $565.45, including round-trip air fare from Buffalo, all meals, hotels, visas and expenses. Information may be obtained by calling the Council at 831-4941. ' | i [ I I From one beer lover to another. THE STKOH BREWERY COMPANY, DETROIT, MICHIGAN 4S226 J ■ I GW 3234 MAIN ST.

One would think that if Albany is going to sink so much money into something the magnitude of the proposed Amherst Campus gymnasium, it would al least do it right. But by the time the State University Construction Fund finishes chiseling away at the size and facilities of the still non-existent gym, students here might as well write off an impromptu game of paddle ball without making a reservation two days in advance. took over the private UB campus in Ever singe 1962, physical education majors, intercollegiate teams, and students merely wanting to participate in some physical recreation have had to suffer with the tremendously inadequate facilities in Clark Hall. A gymnasium originally designed for 4000 students could not be expected to comfortably accommodate a new sprawling state-owned institution, reaching well over 25,000 in number. It was hoped, however, that with the construction of a spacious new campus in Amherst, students here would finally have gym facilities tailored to size. Not only has a considerable portion of the net square footage been cut away, but the Construction Fund and the chief architect refuse to discuss the matter with those at this University who might have a better idea of how to plan the facilities. Apparently the state has broken a "gentleman's agreement" it made with the Athletic Department back in May 1975 to refrain from imposing further cutbacks. And who's to guarantee that the gym facilities will not be scaled down even further? Many people around here feared that if Albany approved the Bubble as a temporary recreation facility in Amherst, it would give its officials more of an excuse to fudge on their promises for the gym. That certainly appears to be the case now. Additionally, when the state removed a proposed Amherst auditorium from the Master Plan several years ago, people figured it would compensate by designing the fieldhouse for non-academic functions. Yet with the present one entrance in the entire fieldhouse stupidity in planning we hate to think of the massive congestion, as well as the fire hazard, that will be caused at any major events. Another oversight is the omission of a women's locker room. Does the architect believe the women will change and wash up in the bathroom? As Dennis Delia, Chairman of the Student Athletic Review Board says, '*£verv day that we delay, the gym gets smaller and smaller." We strongly urge all students*to write President Robert Ketter and the SUMY Central administration, demanding that the gym be designed to fit the needs of a university this size and no further reductions "Three quarters of be imposed. (Ketter's attitude thus far is defeatist and none." the chicken is better than insensitive.) After all, asking for adequate gym facilities is not asking for too much. — — On the way to the house of some friends last week, 1 was lucky enough to catch the sun at an angle and color which illuminated the valley we were driving in beautifully. The sun was a reddish pink and this color seemed to highlight the rest of the fall colors, pulling them out into the eye. It was an extraordinarily pleasant experience, driving some six to eight miles between two rows of hills which seemed to be almost on fire with the shades of red, orange and yellow. It was a case of viewing the world through a natural rose-colored glass. This was made clear on a later morning when the clouds were low, a drizzle was spattering the windshield, and the world |/»/| L) looked altogether drab J especially those trees which had so recently looked so Steese fine. Having recently gotten myself into the serious study of hypnosis, which can be seen at several places as involving the lifting of a focus of awareness, it struck me in this instance of trees and light how fragile we are or at least how fragile I am as a as people person. Hypnosis as taught by the very straight and profession people I seem to have joined forces which means what about the way my with head works? has a great deal to do with suggestibility. Now 1 look for places where 1 am influenced, more or less unexpectedly, by expectations, or things which play on some combination of suggestion, from the outside, and my expectations, which are clearly internal. Is there that much less beauty in the colors as they are obscured by a light rain? Or is there a fundamental response in humans to bright, as opposed to drab, beauty? Perhaps it is anything firelike which pulls such a response from me? Who knows... I certainly don’t. 1 just know that my feelings seem to be that touchy most of the time, that living in the world is the art of preventing unwelcome intrusion, without being outrageiously intrusive . . . except where necessary of course. Vernal intrusion seems to be harder for me to deal with, I began to learn long ago how to listen to my mother without hearing her, until necessary to avoid injury to body and dignity. Bright lights are a total bummer . . but then, so to think of it, are sudden loud noises, and sustained loud noises, and . . . whoa, boy, whoa. (One of the problems with having a not very well organized head is that things change in the middle of them, leaving them in a muddle.) tfie - CI/vU. ... — - Well, there I am back to my own fragility again. Which I project onto you. My version of the world clearly has me jumping when doors slam, i.e., everybody else gets the same startle response, or level of irritation around loud noises. This makes it very hard to understand snowmobilers and other persons who associate with noisy machinery when it is not necessary. Why on earth would they want to do thatl (Because their ears don’t hurt, perhaps? Nonsense, my ears hurt ... everybody’s ears better damned well hurt!) 1 did not come down this road or at least consciously. Seemed intentionally as though there were all sorts of wonderful implications about how sensitive we all are to the rest of the world to be talked about. But somehow I find that confounded with the way my head works. Which is even stranger because one the other ways my head works, it seems to be reasonable to deduce, is that I am having one hell of a hard time blundering on down the road of talking about all those implications unless 1 understand my own thinking about them. Not too weird, 1 guess, have to be ready to defend myself if someone attacks... and you never know when, right? The implications were the usual run-of-the-mill cosmic enlightenment stuff. Hey man, we’re all like that, so be a litt cool, huh? I’m so straight they could use me to level concrete. (Actually, I really enjoyed much of the late Saturday Night Live show with George Carlin (not to be confused with Saturday Night Live with Howard Cosell which if you’ve seen both of them is very hard to do) and anybody who can likes George Carlin can’t be that straight he? On the other hand why am I worried about it?) Arrggghhh! I’m thinking again and it almost universally gets me into trouble. There is a wonderful rock at the end of Sycamore Canyon in the Big Sur area of California. (Have faith, this one is going to make sense eventually!) Where the canyon runs into the Pacific is a rock mass perhaps 50 to 75 feet high with tunnels through it that the waves rush through. There is a trail which runs to the top; and it is a fine place to sit, and look, and feel the wind. It is not a really difficult trail, but it has a couple of tricky spots. When I was there this summer, I started up there with my woman companion. She decided after a ways that climbing this rock in our we had spent a somewhat fuzzy condition fair amount of the day drinking was 1) stupid, 3) she and 2) unsafe, and that given 1, and 2, wasn’t going anywhere but down. All of which hooked me in probably because she was right. But my response was to start to worry, and start trying to think. Which is a terrible idea. There are times when climbing a rock that 1 assume you are supposed to stop and think. Such as before you start, if you aren’t straight. But once started if 1 start double checking myself about everything 1 do, 1 am going to wind up in a mess. I am not paying attention to the rock, or even myself, I am paying attention to my anxiety. Is that a safe handhold? Will my foot fit there? I don’t have enough storage for all that stuff. Which brings us to the obvious conclusion that 1 think too much, which must mean that you do too. So, I hope you will join with President Ford and me, in refusing to think. Thank you, thank you. Survive. ... - - ... - - - - — The Spectrum Vol. 26, No. Arrogant athletes To the Editor Monday, 20 October 1975 26 Editor-in-Chief Managing Editor — I found Christopher Van Vliet’s article (10/15) about arrogant athletes most interesting. The only aspect where I was disappointed was in his failure to hit home a little more. Let me explain. I was a member of this University’s wrestling team four years ago. While most of the wrestlers appeared to be fairly coachable, the great majority of them (including me) possessed few of the qualities 1 believe necessary for an athlete’s development. 1 think that this can apply to all of the athletes at this University. I think that most of them would be like Larry Fogle or Cesar Cedeno if they were as good as them. Also, I feel that it is difficult for a person to be a Dr. Jekyll on the playing field and a Mr. Hyde Amy Dunkin Richard Korman Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Business Manager Howard Koenig — — — Copy Graphics Layout .

Arts off the field. 1 guess I must be a die-hard of the old school of jJt4hought, because I still think that maturity, drive, 'StStt-’sacrifice and the willingness to cooperate are central to an athlete’s development. I believe that a person’s attitude in athletics is merely a reflection of his personality. We must remember that it is more important to be a good person than a good athlete. To me, the ideal athlete is one who strives to excel in his chosen sport, but can also put it in its place. By ■this I mean that he should remember that athletics is just a part of life, and he should try to better himself in other areas. This type of person is certainly a rare breed in Clark Hall. My experience there led me to believe that it is a haven for ego maniacs and jocks who wished and/or thought they were super-jocks and acted like them. It is my contention that the only reason there are not more people like Jimmy Connors or Duane Thomas is that there are very few people who have as much athletic talent as they. Remember the reason we were taught athletics when we were young was so that we could develop.sound minds as well as sound bodies. Four years agQ, 1 submitted a letter to The' Spectrum supporting athletics. Now 1 can’t honestly say 1 would be unhappy or disappointed if athletics were eliminated altogether here. It is funny how attitudes can change. Mark .fay �Guest Opinion by Donald Ross Director of jV YP/RG One way to measure the integrity of a society is to put its most cherished beliefs to the test of experience. For Americans the right to vote is generally considered the most sacred »c Paul Harvey News citizen privilege. From the first elementary school civics class through college political science courses American are exhorted “to participate in their governance by casting a ballot.” Given this stresson the electoral process, would think that every effort would be made to insure that as many persons as possible would register and vote. But anyone holding this belief would be sadly mistaken. For it is impossible to have been involved in the voter registration campaign in New York State this fall and not come away with a deep cynicism toward the entire electoral system, at least as it operates in this state. Every step of the way potential voters were discouraged from registering to vote. Starting with a total absence of publicity on the dates, limes and places for registering and ending with the arbitrary conduct of semi-literate Boards of Elections, the would-be voter was hindered and harassed. At every campus in the state where registration drives were run the initial reaction was one of surprise that an election was soon to take place. “Why wasn’t there more publicity?” was the common complaint. The answer, of course, is that it is an off-year election with no statewide or national offices in contention. Most local candidates lack the resources to sponsor registration drives and others simply avoid campus areas. Many students who knew an election was coming up missed the registration days. At Syracuse, for example, a dozen people came to the NYPIRG office or called on the telephone to find out how to register within an hour after the polls closed. The most tragic cases are those who were stopped from registering by the almost unbelievable incompetence of local boards of elections. In Buffalo, for example, a student at the University was told that it was a felony for - by Paul Harvey statistically are taller, handsomer, Today’s young people healthier, smarter and more capable than any generation which preceded theirs. Except they can’t read or write A million American teenagers, 12-17, cannot read or write at a fourth-grade level! A million American youngsters are illiterate. They learn a little bit about a lot of things in school, but they are not learning reading, writing and ’rithmetic. So they get to college. They want to be journalists. And they can’t even spell. This year 200 students applied for admission to the University of Wisconsin’s school of journalism and most of them were turned away because they did not have even a basic understanding of the English language. They needed only 56 correct answers out of 90 and still couldn’t cut it. One of the washouts said, “Why should I have to know about commas and hyphens and stuff like that?” At the University of Illinois, a freshman writes, “I could of done better in finals if I wouldn’t of broke my leg at exam time.” Only eight percent of this year’s Illinois freshmen passed the - — - writing proficiency entrance test. Universities should not have to teach students to read and write. Part of the problem is grade inflation in high school. “Head ’em up, move ’em out, pass everybody!” Albert Tillman, University of Illinois, blames television. He says children are watching instead of reading. Many colleges and universities, pinched financially and forced to increase enrollments this year, are waiving freshman writing requirements. So you can get into college, through college and out with a degree and remain functionally illiterate. How do they understand their textbooks? They don’t always. Elliott Anderson, professor of English at Northwestern, admits that many teachers do not bother to correct grammar in student essays. Further deleterious is the insfstence by some that “street language,” as they call it, because of common usage should be construed as correct. Dr. Dwayne Bliss, assistant superintendent for administration in the schools of Corpus Christi, Texas, says discipline problems are worsened by marginal literacy. ‘They can’t read and they get bored; they get bored and they get trouble.” in The situation is worsening, not improving. High school graduates taking college entrance exams have scored lower in language skills every year for 12 years, and this year’s decline was the steepest yet. Maybe teachers have been spending too much time striking when they should have been teaching. And, lest you run out of things to worry about, out of this generation’s students will come the next generation's teachers. - her to try to register at a local address. When she protested that she lived there she was told it didn’t matter. Rockland County students were solemnly assured by election officials that they had to be absent from the county for 12 months prior to registering. New To complicate the process York State’s 62 counties adopted their own forms and refused to accept those from other counties. Some placed extra hurdles in the registrant’s way. Broome County, for instance, unilaterally adopted a requirement that the blank be notorized. Without all of the forms were long and exception complicated with small print and scanty instructions. Syracuse students experienced their own special problems. Many were told they couldn’t register locally because they were students, However no where in the law is the condition of being a student listed as grounds for denying the vote. One woman whose parents had sold their home and now were traveling was told she couldn’t register even though her local address was the only one she possessed. Another student born to American parents temporarily living in London wasn’t permitted to register because he couldn’t produce naturalization papers. Nothing he said could convince the registrars that he was a citizen the same as if he had been born in Manhattan, Westchester or Manlius. Many other examples could be given. Were the consequences not so serious, some would like the Buffalo student almost be ludicrous orphaned by recently deceased parents who was told he had to register at his parents home because his only address his dormitory room was unacceptable. Judged in the most charitable manner the registration process was a hopeless bureaucratic bungle that prevented thousands from registering. Viewed in a conspiratorial way it was a calculated obstacle course designed to discourage all but the most persistent citizens. At the very least it produced frustration, at worst cynicism and a “who cares?” attitude. Are the civics books serious when they urge all to vote? And what should we think of a society that prevents people from carrying out their basic duties? — — — Food Service follies To the Editor This letter is to alert the student body of some disgusting goings-on'with Food Service (run in our name by the Faculty-Student Association). A year after hiring an “efficiency expert” as Food Service Director, Norton Hall Food Service last week “laid off” (permanently) 15 employees, mostly students. It is, of course, a month into the semester. At the beginning of the semester, these students were told they had jobs. Now, once they can no longer find part-time jobs open to students, they are told they no longer have jobs. For many of these students, the job means whether or not they can continue in school (due to working conditions that range from bad to horrible, only students with severe financial need work for Food Service). Food Service officials sit in their offices and have no qualms of destroying the economic existence of these human beings to suit his abstractions of “efficiency.” This “efficiency,” it should be noted, takes no notice of situations like that of the beginning of this past summmer, when eight supervisors were paid solely to watch over (in the Orwellian sense) a mere ten workers . . . At an employees meeting in the first week of September, supervisors told those assembled that non-students would be hired in preference to students, since non-students can work shifts like 10 a.m,—2 p.m. every day. Of course, non-students can work such shifts, ninnies! They don’t have to go to classes two or three days a week. Now, it doesn’t take too much intelligence to schedule students for Tuesday—Thursday or Monday-Wednesday-Friday shifts, depending on which days they have classes. At the same meeting, sutdents were blamed for every ill of Food Service from giying too large portions (chortle, chortle!) to stealing those snazzy uniforms (they make divine party dresses). While Food Service flunkies fire students in the name of the holy god Efficiency (say Hallelujah!), sons, daughters, relatives, dead cousins and godchildren of supervisors are hired, usually at a higher salary than the students they replace (say it ain’t so, Mr. Ho!). * While the number of employees is being greatly reduced (despite the nepotism), it is obvious that the lines at Food Service outlets haven’t gotten shorter, the prices haven’t gotten lower, there have been no layoffs of fat-cat administrators, and the food quality is as poor as ever. Another disgusting aspect of Food Service is the sudden change of students’ (and other workers’) schedules. Often, the schedules were changed to hours during which the student had classes, and the students were told to work the new hours or else (this started happening the week after the add-drop deadline, when students could no longer change schedules). In the case of both layoffs and schedule changes,' notice was sometimes limited to several hours; few people had even two days in which to scramble for new jobs. In light of these atrocities, we call upon the student body and for that matter the University community as a whole to immediately take these steps to cripple Food Service until they realize that they employ and serve human beings and not animals. To this end, we ask: 1. Boycott Food Service to the greatest extent , possible; 2. Students on board contract should take all meals and take as much food as possible, even if this means giving or throwing the food away (boardprices are set on the assumption students will not take all meals and will often eat little at a particular meal). 3. While being kind take to harass to workers, complain to and every the administrators who work in the offices on the main floor of Norton. Remember, the quality of iood bought by Food Service, the conditions under which it is prepared, the size of portions, its price, are noi determined by the people who stock, cook and serv. the food, run the cash registers, or bus the tables. I is determined by the biggies in back, who rarel show their faces in public. 4.

Page seve �DonMFwed speaks ofa decade of conspiracy by Meg Covey Spectrum Staff Writer “Elections since 1960 in -this have been decided by bullets, not ballots.” This was one of the opening remarks made by Donald Freed last Wednesday night in Canisius College’s Student Center Auditorium as part of his program, “A Decade of country Conspiracy.” A former professor at UCLA and other coJleges in the California State College system, Freed is the author of Agony in New Haven , and co-authored Executive Action. “the hammer hammer He believes that “the of assassination smashed down, of nulverizine i 8 the American electoral pulverizing puiven process and the American psyche.” Althouth the United States has been democratic superficially, he is convinced that there was a secretive, undemocratic “infrastructure” which was responsible for the three assassinations and one unsuccessful attempt. (Kennedy Brothers, Martin Luther King, Jr., George Wallace). * Ghastly decade Freed sees a definite connection between the crimes, saying that in this "ghastly decade of deceit, and lies, and conspiracy, one can follow the blood red footprints from Dallas through Watergate.” He blames the conspiracy problem on the Americans’ willingness to accept everything they are told, and appealed to the audience to be "extremely critical” of his statements without evidence. He began by showing a bootlegged short on the Kennedy assassination which he said was suppressed for twelve years. It It dealt with the minutes of the shooting itself and showed that two two separate bullets hit Kennedy Texas, John of Texas, and and then Governor of ■ the same who was in Connolly, limousine. Also, it clearly showed the impact of the bullet on Kennedy’s forehead and the force of it pushing him backward. Freed pointed out that the film contradicts the “magic” bullet theory presented by the Warren Commission report which held that three bullets were fired at Kennedy’s motocade. One hit the curb, one hit the President’s head from behind, 'and the other one was the “magic" bullet. „ „ .... ..

Its population is about a quarter of a million, and because of its small size, the calibre of the team is unknown. The tickets for the event are expected to pay off the $500 loan, but in case they don’t, Richardson has made it clear that the remaining amount would be repaid from his budget. Tickets for students will cost $1 in advance and $2 at the door. Non-students will have to pay $1 more, both in advance and at the door. The game will begin at 7:30 p.m. * The other basketball event on November 21 will take place during the afternoon. It will be the second annual Pre-Season Luncheon, held, at the Statler Hilton. Although details for the luncheon have not been finalized, there will be a guest speaker, and those who attend will meet Richardson, his assistants and his players. The Basketball Bulls will open their season against the national team of Barbados on November 21. The match was not finally approved ufitil Tuesday of last week when Buffalo Coach Leo Richardson obtained a $500 no-interest loan from the Black Student Union. The money guarantees that the expenses of the Barbados team will be paid. The idea originated back in May when Richardson wanted to take the Bulls to Europe. However, the basketball budget was not large enough to allow such an expensive undertaking, so the idea was modified to bring a foreign team to Buffalo. At first, Richardson tried to get either the Polish or Italian national teams to play here, but since the Barbados team will be touring the United States at that time, the game was arranged.

The at night October 7 with wins over Canisius and Niagara. Buffalo got off to a bad start against Houghton in the first game. Buffalo’s play was sloppy and disorganized, and they were outplayed bv the supposedly weaker Houghton squad. The momentum turned around in the second game of the match when Buffalo tightened up its defense and began to control its bumps and spikes. (Bumps are preliminary hits before the ball is spiked.) “We had a real slow start,” said JoAnne Wroblewski, “but then we got it together and started making them work for their points.” Buffalo had no trouble defeating Houghton in the next two games to win the match. The first game of the Buffalo State match was the most exciting game of the night. Buffalo led 6-0 after two series of serves, but the Bengals chipped away at the lead until Buffalo was only ahead by one. Buffalo scored two quick points before both defenses tightened up to hold each team scoreless for three serves. Then State managed to tie the score before Buffalo finally won the game with two points in the last two serves. Buffalo defeated its crosstown rivals in an i Oct. 22, Tuesday at 4:15 pm Room 234 2.

Committee reports • Sideline spikes Weinreich tested out a new strategy in the matches, and he was very pleased with the results. Most teams block towards the middle of the court, which leaves a hole open on either side, he explained. Weinreich took advantage of this bv having his players set the ball on the edge on the court, and spike it down the line, scoring a number of points this way. This is the first time Weinreich ever coached a women’s team. “They’re a lot more pleasant to look at,” he commented when asked about the differences between coaching men and women,” and girls are more responsive than men.” The players have no qualms about being coached by a man. “It’s the person who makes the coach, not the sex of the person,” said Karen Knortz.

It is believed the disappearance of the papers of a is related to an article which contained the text student a against order issued show-cause government election that was rescheduled for a third time The United Student Government (USG) elections were held originally in late May. The results, however, were invalidated by USG President Ann Pindall, herself a candidate, because of alleged discrepancies in the election procedure. Her action was taken without the approval of the Judicial Council, which is supposed to be consulted on such matters. A vote to impeach Pindall in the Judicial Council failed to gain the required two-thirds majority. Show-cause order The postponed election was rescheduled for the fall semester, but Pindall decided not to run. Nevertheless, a show-cause order was obtained by Jack Parsons, a member of the Veterans’ Association, which charged that Pindall invalidated the elections because she knew she would lose. An investigation showed that this was not the case, and the show-cause order was withdrawn. The Buff State Record printed the text of the show-cause order in its September 30 issue, but it was later discovered that a former USG officer had ■ NORDIC ‘ by Pat Quinlivwi ,• WAY called the printer. Western New York Offset Press, between 1 ajn! and 2 a.m. that morning, just as the paper was about to go to press. The caller identified himself as a presentative of the Record and requested that a paragraph be deleted from the show-cause 6rder story. The printer had to change the negative, and charged the Record for this expense. The disputed paragraph read: **1116 show-cause order states that no purpose or reason was ever given for the invalidation of the elections. The order accused Ann Pindall of invalidating the election because she knew she was losing.” The caller later admitted to the deception, and said: “I had no choice. I knew it was libelous, and I knew I would be on the phone instituting libel proceedings against the Record, if the statement had been printed.” He said his only alternatives were ‘‘to destroy all the Record s when they came on campus, or allow the story to appear with the missing X-C SKIING ''W ' (at Broadway) v ?E / A CAMPING BACKPACKING CANOES 5421 TRANSIT . .1 ■ ly W RENTALS LESSONS naia> TOURS “Something that will stun the listener-reader, hold him In Its grip, and never quite let go ot him." 4 -The Washington Post paragraph.” Elusive newspapers When the Record discovered what had transpired, the editors decided to run the full text of the show-cause order on the front page of Friday’s paper. Much to their surprise, however, about 7000 of the paper’s 7500 copies managed not to find their way into the hands of the students. The Record will probably publish another issue on Tuesday with the show-cause order. Meanwhile, the USG will attempt to fill its offices for a third time from October 27 to October 30.

Thus, when age, they are expected to put subjects like lesbianism and aside their feelings for their homosexuality are mentioned, automatically many people dismiss them as social diseases without making any attempt to understand them. Sisters of Sappho, an organization of lesbians in Buffalo, held a workshop Tuesday night to dispell many of the myths that have long been associated with lesbianism. The meeting began with each of the participating women their “coming out” relating experience. All three experienced similar traumas in admitting their to lesbian pendencies first themselves and then to their families. All agreed that the girlfriends and rechannel them to the woman said. women’s movement greatly a man, Relationships with men are facilitated their coming out. A lesbian is a woman whose supposed to bring them ultimate sexual and emotional needs are satisfaction. If they feel there is satisfied by other women, they something missing in their explained. One woman said that relational ip, the only solution is society unknowingly encourages to look for another man. * Many lesbians marry men for a and psychological social protection, she continued. Any woman, gay or straight, is judged a failure is she isn't fulfilling the role of wife and mother. Repression Today of the subject lesbinaism is more freely discussed because women are reevaluating themselves, and consequently, society is reevaluating women. While many women admit that they are gay, many more still repress their emotions. One woman said that while straight women can kiss qpenly or hug each other, she felt gay women would instantly be branded it they expressed such emotion in public. Lesbians feel more intimidated by the public than many other groups, she said. The myth that one can spot a lesbian simply by her looks was also challenged. Lesbians are not physically different from any other women, one participant said. A lesbian can come from all racial, religious, and ethnic backgrounds. She can be a secretary, a cab driver, an actress. women is defined as “sick,” thus making it impossible for them to be honest- and open with their families, friends and society. A Stereotypes The heterosexual definition of tremendous burden is put on a They are a woman is based on her ability to lesbian’s psyche. told maniacs,” “sex play the feminine role, the reguarded as and that all ill, that they mentally spokeswoman said.

Natives of many countries, dressed in their traditional costumes, set up colorful pavillions to display various forms of folkart. Most of the objects came from their own homes and are functional parts of their daily lives. “One of the things we wanted out of this fair was to emphasize the international scope of the campus,” said Mary Brown, one of the fair’s coordinators. “People from all over have their own special talents and crafts, and we simply wanted to show off their abilities.” The American Indian exhibit contained bead work, baskets, toys, objects and apparel used for social dancing and pottery. Many of the designs had symbolic meeting, and Brown, who prepared the pavillion, explained that Indian crafts tend to be decorative as well as useful. Spectacular woodwork From the Ukraine came brilliant embroidary, geometrically designed ceramics, handlooms and enameling. Most Ukranian homes are decorated in this manner, with bright oranges, reds and browns. Most spectacular of all the artifacts was the woodwork, many of which were reproductions of old church art. Floral patterns were represented in both the Brazilian and Japanese displays. Japanese women taught how to arrange flowers, and also demonstrated the art of origami, an intricate method of paper folding. Brazilian craftspeople embroider flowers in many of their materials and clothing, and tend to utilize lace in their handcrafts. There was also a slide of Sao Paulo, Brazil’s largest city. West Africa, like Brazil, was characterized by hand-embroidered dresses and loose-fitting shirts. The most unusual items were painted containers made of fruit shells, and brass hangings which depict different gods. On the floor of the Fillmore Room, an Asian Indian woman created different patterns which would eventually appear on her batik canvasses. The women also presented and wore embroidered satin sans Photos by Forrest �BSU r*. 1 Reorganized to provide a more progressive and responsible unit The Black Student Union (BSU) has undergone a complete reorganization in an attempt to become a more progressive unit for black students and their problems. “The restructuring changed our executive office from a president to a triumvirate,” said Chelsie Morrison, chairperson of the BSU. Her two co-leaders are John “Buck” Lott and Abdul Wahab. “We are hoping to establish among the black students here a closeness similar to that of a family,” Lott said. “We also want to show that we are intelligent and rational, and to dispel the image of black students as jumping on tables and turning them over.” We want to maintain our place in society and on campus as a unified entity, Morrison said. “Last year our organization was in a moribund state, and now it is as if we are emerging from the ashes like the Phoenix. We are trying very hard to unveil ourselves from this image of a violent, unintelligent mass of protoplasm, and show that we are intelligent, that we are rational people,” she said. New structure The new organizational structure divides the BSU into nine standing committees: Academic Affairs, Activities, Legal Affairs, Student Enterprise, Sport Activities, National Affairs, Community Affairs, Communications and the Finance Committee. “Each committee is chaired by a coordinator, and presents its ideas to the executive for approval and to the Finance Committee for financial viability,” Morrison explained. The Academic Affairs committee deals with academic survival, including the Equal Opportunity Program (EOP), financial aid information, a tutorial program,■and academic counseling. “The Academic Affairs Committee is basically concerned with helping the black student to make it through four years here,” Morrison said. The Activities committee is responsible for all BSU activities from entertainment to cultural programs, Lott said. The student Enterprises Committee is exploring the possibilities of establishing a record coop, a food coop, and a health program geared towards black students. Legal concerns Legal affairs is concerned with legal matters related to the BSU, such as a bail fund and contracts. Jim Eaglin, a recent graduate of the law school here, is currently serving as the BSU legal consultant. Community Affairs seeks to establish a liaison between the black community in Buffalo and the black students on campus. “We hope to establish programs that will benefit both of us,” Morrison said. The purpose of the Communications Committee is to inform BSU members about upcoming programs. The Communications Committee also serves as a publicity committee Cities loan guarantee asked by Pat Quinlivan City Editor Senator Jacob Javits (R., N Y.) has introduced a bill which would establish a Federal Loan guarantee facility for ailing local governments. This facility is necessary, Javits told the Senate Banking Committee, because “it is clear by now that by any standard, the New York City financial crisis is a national crisis deserving of a national response.” Under Javits’ bill, local governments and “eligible corporations” such as the Municipal Assistance Corporation (Big Mac) of New York State, would be eligible for loans of up to $500 million per year, as allocated by the Secretary of the Treasury. ■ An “eligible corporation” is defined as one that has been formed under state law, and that has “the authority to go into the market and use the proceeds of its borrowing to purchase debt obligations of local governments.” What this means is that the designated corporation (Big Mac for example) must have far-reaching powers over the particular local government it was established to assist. The maximum total of all loans guaranteed by the bill would not exceed $5 billion. Insurance facility Title II of the proposed legislation would set up an insurance facility, also administered by the Secretary of the Treasury. This facility “would hold This ties in with efforts being made in New York State by Assemblyman Joseph 1 Lisa of the 34th District Lisa has formed the “Save Our City Committee." which is attempting to market Big Mac bonds in denominations of S50 and S I 00. While admitting that there has been waste, and even financial gimmickry, on the part of New York’s city fathers. Javits said at the Banking Committee hearing that New York’s problems are noSentirely attributable to the city’s “wicked wavs." He says the city’s problems "are primarily the result of attempting to cope with the enormous social problems of the day," combined with the recession and inflation that have been ravaging the nation. Broader range Abdul Wahaab and Chelsie Morrison National Affairs gathers information and coordinate activities with other schools. BSU leaders foresee the possible development of a national or state-wide Black Students Union as an offshoot of the cooperation with other schools. The Sports Committee will serve as a body for the black athletes on campus, and will coordinate athletic events. The Finance Committee is charged with formulating the BSU budget request, establishing financial priorities, and disbursing funds within the BSU. “We are trying very hard to cater to the immediate needs of the black students on campus,” Morrison said, and “we are trying to establish a program that every black student can participate in.” Hear 0 Israel For gems from the JEWISH BIBLE Phone 875-4265 Wilamt’a 1053 Kensington Ave. 834-3597 Get Your Plants, their acct ssories and prescriptions for same from The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only The by summer during the Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc.

Colleges staff and community persons can pursue their mutual interests in the development of anarchist theory,” and where ideas about small cooperative communities can be tested. College H’s relationship with the Faculty of Health Sciences was hailed by Spitzberg as a “model of the constructive and complementary relations which should be typical of future developments.” College H studies the delivery ,of community health care and services. Spitzberg praised a number of the Colleges for developing strong community ties and relations. Tolstoy College was cited for its links to Buffalo’s Polish-American community, and Cora P. Maloney was likewise College complimented for its links to Increased involvement of departmental faculty in the Colleges has led to more credible stances, academic without sacrificing academic quality, said Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg in his Annual Report. The report, which covered the 1974-75 academic year, presented a positive picture of the Colleges’ current state and promised greater development in the future. Participation of regular faculty, a criteria on which the Colleges were judged when they applied for charters last year, has increased from 25 in spring, 1974 to over 150 last spring, said Spitzberg. In particular, he noted, Tolstoy College (College F), which had only one regular faculty member in the spring 1974, but had over half its courses taught by regular faculty in the community spring of 1975. In the same time inner-city also Spitzberg period, Rachel Carson College organizations. increased its regular faculty roster noted Rachel Carson College and from one to seven. the College of Urban Studies for their links to community groups. More than statistics Spitzberg went on to say that Negative image Additionally, Spitzberg said the chief executive officers of Carson, Urban Studies, Rachel eight of the eleven Colleges are H, and Women’s Studies University College regular faculty. Noting that “statistics in and College “involve themselves in of themselves do not indicate the service and learning opportunities intensity in the community,” through their faculty of FSA board complete as result of election Four students, three administrators, one faculty member, and one professional staff person elected to the were Association Faculty-Student (FSA) Board of Directors President for Finance and Management and FSA Treasurer, saw no real significance in the loss Spitzberg was less enthusiastic, though, when speaking about the general community image of the Colleges. He recalled a picket line set up by local mothers around the storefront of the now-defunct College A and said the negative image still hasn’t been overcome entirely. “For us to be successful, however, we shall need the help of University the total in communicating a more positive view of the Colleges,” stated Spitzberg.

A native of West Germany, Moessner addressed herself to the West German woman’s situation. “Before World War II, there was aristocracy, since Foreign panalists discuss roles of men and women in the world by Paul Buttino Staff Writer Spectrum Panelists from four foreign countries discussed the traditional roles of men and women and the strides women have made in their respective countries Tuesday in observance of International Women’s Week. Participants in the interchange entitled “A New Era for Men and Women” were Neusa Long of Brazil, Henrietta Moessner of Germany, Eliz Sansarian of Iran and Teres Yanka of Ghana. Sansarian described the role Iranian women held: “The traditional role had identified women as weak and incapable of conducting their own lives, and constantly being in need of strong men, physically and financially, to support them.” However, this is untrue in Iran today, she contended. “Women are encouraged to become educated and even go on to higher education. The job market accepts qualified women without any discrimination, and all women have the right to vote.” Traditionally, she said, a woman was obligated to marry a certain man chosen by her parents, but today, they are not being forced into marriages, and can marry anyone they choose. Height of democracy? Sansarian said the man may have a second wife, but only if the wife agrees, or if his first wife is sick. Yanka from Ghana was shocked to find a Women’s Liberation movement in America, a country her people regard as the height of democracy. “I was surprised to find that women over here had to fight to obtain a whole lot of things that we already had from way back. Back in Ghana, women never had to fight to get equal pay, we always had it,” she said The main difference between the sexes, Yanka pointed out, is not salaries, but the house. “Back in Ghana, in a home, a woman is expected to be very submissive and play the role of what they call a woman, with the husband the boss.” An African woman is never really recognized until she is married and a mother, Yanka said. Otherwise she has not obtained what is supposed to be the highest point for a woman. Underpaid Brazil has 50 million women, according to 1970 statistics. Yet women in Brazil constitute only 20 percent of the work force. Long said. The life of women in Brazil is conditioned by their social status, and by their being rural or city dwellers, Long added. Two-thirds of the country’s field work is done by women, and after they finish a full day’s work, they are expected to perform a number of domestic chores. “Women do not demand equal pay for the simple reason that their men are also terribly under-paid,” Long explained. “In the cities, women in the lower classes work chiefly as maids for meager wages. Of the 300,000 college students in Brazil, 100,000 are women, she said. Although many women hold prominent jobs, such as gynecologists and pediatricians, women are concentrated in the teaching profession, Long said. Germany has a problem, Moessner pointed out.

It’s very important to be a virgin at marriage, but many lower class women had illegitimate babies of men from the middle and upper classes since those were expected to have experience.” In a question and answer period following the discussion, the representatives from Iran and Ghana were asked if women were permitted to have more than one husband in their countries. Both said no. Fight back! Someone asked Yanka how the women in her country were trying to fight the marriage to the house. She replied, “We try to get the husbands to share in the responsibilities of raising the children, so we don’t have to be stuck with the housework all the time.” qturday, Oct. 18th at 8 pm 9/, Rooms 218 - 219 (Lounge Area] of the u.h, record coop The role of the woman in those days, Moessner explained, was dignified and polite, and since she had a maid, there was nothing for her to do in the house.

Semi-zombies result of cannibis epidemic At first glance, it (CPS) would seem that the country is not far from reaching a national of decriminalizing policy marijuana. But it may take longer than expected. ., There are several obstacles to federal legislation to decriminalize marijuana, although six states such already have passed legislation on their own, and a presidential task force recently recommended that enforcement of pot laws be given low priority. One of the major obstacles, said Keith Stroup, chairman of the National Organization to Laws Reform Marijuana is Senator James (NORML) Eastland (D., Ms.) Eastland is a staunch opponent of Marijuana decriminalization and chairman of the Judiciary Committee, through which any marijuana bill must pass before it reaches the Senate floor. In addition, Eastland is Senate chairman ol the ol Internal Subcommittee Security, which issued a report last yeai spelling out the details of a maiijuana “epidemic." There are good reasons to oppose the decriminalization of marijuana, according to Dave Marlin, chief analyst for the subcommittee and last land coordinator for the hearings from which least land's report stemmed. Marijuana, said Martin, can make a person “anti-motivational” or Martin claimed that neither he Eastland recommended putting “youthful first offenders” behind bars, but insisted that possession of pot should remain a misdemeanor, since a “criminal record and probation provide a deterrent.” powerful mighty decriminalization Marijuana generally implies that no criminal records will be kept on minor marijuana arrests. Eastland’s subcommittee has scheduled a second set of marijuana hearings for November in which the latest scientific research will be examined, Martin said. “I’m not totally against decriminalization. I just want to take a go-slow attitude.” Several marijuana reform bills are in Congress now. There is a Senate bill which must pass Eastland’s through Judiciary Committee although Stroup of NORML is pessimistic about whether that bill can “be forced through” the committee. A bill in the House is caught in “the same kind of bottleneck,” Stroup said. The House bill must go through the Subcommittee on Health and Environment. The chairman of that committee, Paul Rogers (D., FL), is “sitting on the bill until after the ’76 elections,” Stroup said Rogers could not be reached for comment. reform Another marijuana measure is proposed to amend the Justice controversial Criminal Reform Act, which calls for a massive overhaul of the US. Criminal Code. If that bill is passed without a amendment, decriminalization of pot could be possession punished with a 30-day jail sentence and/or a fine of up to "dysfunctional." $10,000. by Allan Rabinowitz Special to The Spectrum If the cannibis epidemic we may continues to spread find ourselves saddled with a large population of semi-zombies . .. —Senator James Eastland ... Dripping in pockets, lingering in the air (CPS) Like old soldiers, old laws don’t die, they just fade out of the public mind. But old laws regulating food sales still exist in yellowed sections of the law books of many states. For instance, it’s still against the law for a - Nebraska tavern owner to sell beer unless there is a ppt of soup brewing. In Kansas, an old law forbids eating rattlesnake meat in public. Carrying an ice cream cone in your pocket is strictly forbidden by a Lexington, Kentucky ordinance, while in Winona Lake, Indiana, just eating an ice cream cone at a counter on Sunday is illegal. And in Gary, Indiana, it’s against the law to ride a street car or attend a theater within four hours after eating garlic. Abortion legal but not available (CPS) Although abortion has been legalized for more than a year, thousands of women are still unable to obtain abortions in America, according to a study by the Alan Guttmacher Institute, the research arm of Planned Parenthood Federation of America. The study estimated that between 400.000 and 900,000 women were denied abortions in 1974, most of them poor and many under the age of 20. The report showed that only 15 percent of public hospitals performed “even a single abortion” in the first three months of 1974. The response in many hospitals to the legalization of abortion “was so limited as to be tantamount to no response at - all,” The total nationwide need for abortions in 1974 estimated at 1.3 to 1.8 million. The total estimated number of abortions performed was only was 892,000. The report also showed that abortion services vary widely from region to region and are much more accessible to middle and upper-income women. “Unless these inequities are corrected,” the investigators concluded, “women who are poor or very young and those who live in smaller cities will continue to find it difficult to obtain safe, legal abortions. They will continue to obtain illegal or self-induced abortions, unwanted or mistimed births, school dropouts, precipitous marriages and other health and social consequences.” Second class criminals no more (CPS) An unexpected repercussion of the women’s liberation movement has been a dramatic increase in the crime rates among females, according — to at least one woman studying recent trends in crime. In an interview with the Christian Science Monitor, Freda Adler, an associate professor of criminal justice at Rutgers University, explained that ‘.women no longer want to be second-class criminals.” In the same way that women are imitating men in other aspecft of social behavior, Adler said, they are veering away from “feminine” crimes like shoplifting and prostitution. Instead they are moving toward the more serious crimes of homicide, aggravated assault, robbery and burglary. Between the years 1960 and 1972, the number of women committing serious crimes increased by about 250 percent, compared to an increase of about 80 percent for men. Adler reassured feminists and others that “female liberation has not caused more criminality. We are dealing with something quite different.” Adler said it is more a question of increased opportunity than any loss of morality. Another reason for the increase in female arrests may be that the police are becoming more liberated as well. There may be a less “chivalrous” attitude on the part of the police toward women, resulting in more equal treatment before the law, Adler theorized. Other bad side effects of increased freedom tor women have included an increase of narcotics addiction, suicide and mental illness. Alice doesn’t work here today (CPS) Alice won't do anything on Octohei if the National Organization of Women pulls its national feminist strike together I he one-day strike is a show ol which NOW calls "Alice Doesn't “non-support” according to Cindy Clark, one ol the strike leaders. Clark said the response to the strike has been “fantastic" so tar, with inquiries from women in the military and on Capitol Mill, nurses, business and professional women, factory workers and even men. NOW members believe the feminist strike will show how much the country depends on women. Like a bike?

Stone: cultic celebration and the adolescent nay-sayer by Marc Epstein Special to The Spectrum When it first began I don’t know, but somehow the memory always stayed with me. It was at a Beatles concert in the summer of 1964 that I first had this memorable experience. The thousands who had flocked from the five boroughs of New York were deliriously happy to be there, so much so, that their squeals prevented them from hearing a single note the Beatles were singing. While few groups ever achieved the intensity of a “Beatles Happening,” many tried and the Beatles’ example was there for all to follow, with varying degrees of success. They set a standard. The lesson was clear, at least to me: audiences were no longer interested in the content or quality of the performance. They had instead become active participants in cultic rites, the celebration of which brought them together from far and near in one of the many tragically foredoomed efforts to recover the community of sense macro-sociologists tell us we multitudes that flocked to (and Hollywood premiers funerals) in the 20’s and 30’s. What else is new? A great deal! American cultural kitsch has always had a formidable audience, and popular personalities have always reveled in the mass-massaging of their egos. There has always existed a mass audience which liked nothing better than to lose itself in the fantasy life of a Douglas cultic celebration. I.F. Stone star {IF.

Damaging myths The University grief to Consider the following statements: -AH lesbians hate men. -Lesbians can be distinguished simply by their looks. -Lesbians who openly express emotion towards one another are (Jefying the moral dictates of society and engaging in an abnormal action. -In a relationship between two lesbian lovers, one always acts the role of the "mate" and the other plays the female." -Lesbianism is a sign of mental instability and/or sexual deviance and should be treated as such by society. ", Homosexuality is not a subject that is discussed openly and honestly between parents and children, students and teachers, or even among friends. Society has preferred to "sweep it under the rug” in hopes that it would go away. Yet much to the contrary, homosexuality has existed since the beginning of time and the way things look, it will be around until the end of time as well. People in our culture have for years lashed out at homosexuality in ignorance and fear, thus accounting for the perpetuation of falsehoods such as the ones listed above. They have used every stigmatizing word in the book to brand homosexuals, from criminal, to degenerate, to psychopath, to queer. They have flung open the dusty pages of the law books in attempts to discriminate against homosexuals in cases of child custody, employment, and housing. But worst of all, they have done aM this without even trying to understand what homosexuality is all about. And many homosexuals, caught up in the typical Catch 22 situation, feel that social ostracism is not a fair price to pay for "coming out" and they are forced to "stay in the closet” rather than show the rest of the world why a psychological or emotional preference for a member of the same sex is not a bad thing. With lesbianism, for example, a little bit of education and intelligence can quickly dispel the stereotypes that are built around it. For one thing, lesbians do not hate men; they are merely women who derive greater fulfillment from relationships with other women. If you don't believe that, •just ask yourself.— do heterosexual women hate other women because they do not have sexual relations with them? Second, lesbians are not physically different than other women and their desire to express emotions in public is no more wrong than the desire of any woman to openly kiss or touch another. (Remember, little girls are taught to be outwardly affectionate to both sexes.) Third, in lesbian relationships, the male-female powerplay simply does not exist. The two people involved have more freedom to develop as individuals for the very reason that they do not have to fit into any set social roles. Finally, lesbianism is a chosen preference. Any mental disturbances involved results from the traumas caused by society, not from the act itself. Workshops where straight people meet gay people face to face are ideal ways to demythologize homosexuality. Realistically, however, any serious change in attitudes will have to come from the conscious effort of individuals to be open-minded and understanding. Unfortunately, even on college campuses, prejudices against homosexuals are firmly entrenched in the attitudes of students. Yet it is precisely these people who can put a stop to the lies that continue to brandish the gay community.

Gregory Tylinski Fascist Iran To the Editor the Ever since the Chilean coup of 1973 headlines of The N. Y. Times , the American public has shown such a wholehearted concern for that specific event, as if Chile were the only case of a C.I.A. coup in a third world country. Similarly, now that General Franco’s atrocities have wounded the world’s humanitarian heart. Western circles, and especially European communities, have responded with such extreme reactions that one is easily led to regard Franco as the only cruel dictator of the post-Hitler era. While the vigorous reaction of public opinion to such cases is a positive sign of an aware society, it is hard to accept the attitude that the American public has shown so far of getting so deeply involved in these specific, cases as to close its mind toward similar and even more cruel cases elsewhere in the world. There are many countries in which CIA intervention and fascisttc dictatorship is part of everyday life. The case that needs to be referred to in this context and that has by tar outdone Francos cruelties and is a much more original case study ot C I.A.’s planned coups overseas concerns one ot the major oil producing countries and a member ot the OIM cartel Iran. The image that the American public has ot Iran as a prosperous land ot oriental leisure, guided by a benevolent monarch is mainly due to the misguided American news media that gives a distorted view ot realities in Iran. Franco's regime, compared to the one-man rule of Iran's Shall, is quite progressive and harmless Thai Iran has now over 40,000 political prisoners is indicative ol this laet (' political prisoners, nine political prisoners executed in Iran, despite an appeal by Amnesty International to save their lives. But this is a common ’practice of the existing regime. People simply disappear from the streets, landing in one of the secret police camps without the knowledge of their relatives. The legality of these arrests is of no concern to the government, let alone the prisoners’ right to a trial. The highly sophisticated torture equipments in the possession of the Iranian secret police (SAVAK) is in no way comparable to Franco’s negligable torture chambers, left over from World War II. The present regime has been brought to power after a successful C.I.A. coup in 1953. This was the first experience of the C.I.A. in launching coups The combination of heavy C.I.A overseas. involvement in Iran and increasing oil revenues have since been the main contributors to the fortification of the most dictatorial regime the world has ever seen. Now it is of no surprise to have ex-C.I.A. director Richard Helms as the present U.S. ambassador to Iran It is under his ambassadorship and with the help of Iranian oil money that the Shah is now spending more than eight billion dollars a while the year on arms, torture assets and prisons Iranian peasant is living in mud houses with terrible sanitary conditions. Despite all this repression much concern is shown and sacrifices made by many Iranians, especially students inside and outside the country to pave the way towards a free Iran. All around the world, and especially in Iran, too many lives are destroyed to allow us tq close our minds to these cruelties. Let us revive Iran in our minds whenever we hear of another case of an inhuman fascist regime ruling a people. ever - John T Andrews were Incomplete picture To the Editor women "Attitudes Toward Middle hast conservative” is the title of an article which appeared the Wed , Oct 8, 1475 International Women's Year supplement The article was mistitled. for indeed it only related to specific areas of the Moslem Arab World and not the Modern Middle hast. I have read, in some of the most reputable publications in the world today, the most glaring misrepresentations of the modern Middle hast that it does not surprise me at all that these same The in constantly appear misrepresentations Spectrum. The most widely accepted of these misrepresentations is that all ol the Middle hast always was, is and will be Arab and that all of this "Arab” Middle hast is Moslem (Sunni). It is, therefore, not unusual to see the Modern Middle hastern woman portrayed as a veiled Moslem woman, dominated by her Moslem Arab husband This is such a distortion of the Middle hast, on a whole, as to constitute a LI If. There are, in the Middle least, non-Arab Moslems, non-Moslem Arabs and non-Arab non-Moslems, Israel is a part of the Middle hast (whether or not it is to the liking of the Moslem Arabs). Israeli society is made up of, to a larger extent, Non-Moslem, Non-Arab, Jews. The Jews (for those who aren’t aware of it) were an intrinsic part of the Middle East long before (2000 years before) the in Moslem Arabs were. To deny this fact, as the author of the article seems to, is to constitute an incomplete picture of the Modern Middle East. In modern Israeli society, women are (for the most part) equal in all aspects of civil life. The Jewish woman in Israel has equal rights of voting, in education, in most aspects of religion and in marraige and divorce. A man can dance all day saying, “I divorce thee,” and, in the eyes of Judaism, his marital status does not change at all. These laws of divorce and marriage were in existence in the Middle East long before the Moslem Arab was even dreamt of. The most highly educated of all women in the Middle East are those that are citizens of Israel Indeed the most liberated, most equal women in the Middle East are those that are Israelis. This is not to say that everything in Israel is rosey because it isn’t. All one has to do is listen to or read Shulamit Alon’s the head of the civil rights party in the Israeli Knesset (parliament) and know that the situation is not utopian. To say that in one article, one cannot cover all material on the Modern Middle Eastern woman is to say that maybe there should be two or three articles on the topic. If The Spectrum wishes to have credibility it should avoid the mislabeling of articles in order to avoid flagrant misrepresentations of issues. o( the Samuel M.

A professor of English at a small college of London University, he responds to knocks at his office door with a frantic “Block that student!" to his protege at the next desk and then, with the painful sense of irony that never leaves him at peace, answers his phone "Ben Butley, — Friend to Education." Asked if he misses his wife Anne and the marriage that is falling to pieces much faster than he realizes, he replies, "Only the sex and violence, and these days one can get that anywhere." He is tired of the nights spent with only his bottles and books for company, waiting impatiently for the phone to ring, and hisses resentfully to Joseph, his more popular office mate/roommate, "I don't see why you shouldn't stay home at night and learn what it's like to fret yourself into a drunken coma!" But the feeling that something is going wrong remains until the afternoon when he vague and uncomprehended learns that Anne and Joseph have both left him for other men. Two divorces in one day are a lot for anyone, and Ben is suddenly forced to realize that he's just too old to do anything about either of them. — Master driver Butley is a master of snide repartee (“Can I take that can you take as straight abuse?" "It's straight abuse he comes to everyone it?") who succeeds in driving away but the Studio love, as well as everybody else he meets - - Arena Theatre's current production of Simon Gray's play about his inevitable day of reckoning is as much a winner as its anti-hero is a loser The entire play takes place in the cramped and cluttered space behind Ben's always-closed office door, and the only "action" is generated by his quick, extremely caustic wit. Star Tony Tanner (who comes to Buffalo straight from the Broadway hit Sherlock Holmes ) brings off this difficult role beautifully, as his talent and energy far exceed that of the failed, aging homosexual he brings to life. The title role was created in London by Alan Bates, who subsequently brought Butley to Broadway and then played him again in the American Film Theatre's production two years ago. The character seems to have been invented with Bates' peculiar style of bemused casualness, his veneer of apparent caftn through which he always seems to be on the verge of helpless panic, in mind. Like the professor who alternates between nasty one-liners and recitations from the tiny volumes of Beatrix Potter he keeps in his desk, Bates looks and acts like a mischievous child trying hard, to play the unfamiliar part of a middle-aged man. Second-hand If Bates was the perfect Butley, it is not only predictable but also quite appropriate that Tony Tanner, acting under Richard Barr's direction, should occasionally seem to be playing Alan Bates playing Ben Butley. He has the same sly, boyish smile, the same carelessness, the same air of imperfectly concealed hysteria that the character and his creator share. It is Bates' characterization, but Tanner has slid into it and found a perfect fit. As it continues "building up a case here for a conspiracy theory of human relationships (as Ben observes between blows from Anne, Joseph and their friends), the play requires some fairly intense interaction among its characters but Tanner, who is the first to come onstage and the last to leave, with no break other than the intermission is so strong that he overwhelms nearly all the minor players. With the exception of Nancy Cushman, whose Professor Edna Shaft ("You remember Edna,” Ben tells his wife, "she's the one you called a human contraceptive" to which the sedate Anne objects, "Actually, I called her a pill") is overbearing and overacted, Butley's attackers seem pale in comparison to Tanner's bravura performance. All of the acting is more than adequate (although the very American accent of Bill VandeSande, as the young student who is Joseph's potential successor jars the ingenue unpleasantly next to the good British English of the others); but as both the title and the staging imply, it is Butley's show, and its success is wholly Tanner's. Butley is a fascinating study of a man whose life leaves him wtih no other choice but to slowly fizzle out. Scheduled to run through November 1, the production heralds the beautiful beginning of a Studio Arena season set to include treats ranging from the slapstick farce Scapino! to Equus, Peter Shaffer's award-winning — — — — psychological thriller. — �Contemporary Theatre The characters are caught in hopelessness, despair ■■ man, and his performance is realistic and touching. He is the man we all recognize and seem to know, perhaps because we see so much of ourselves in him. by Sherry Margulis Staff Spectrum Arts Jeffrey Allen and Rosanna Penna appear with Woolley and successfully play off of him, as Joe Kane and the man's wife, so philosophical about her poverty. "Any American boy can be President, even if he is poor," she says of her son. "Poverty ain't no crime it sure has helped to make a lot of Often, when watching a play, we discover elements in that play that are common to our own lives, that prompt us to nod our heads knowingly and say, "Yes, that's how it is. I've been there myself." Unfortunately, this is most often true of plays dealing with people in hopelessly desperate situations, when the tone is more poignant, and the pain is a little sharper. Two such plays are currently on stage at the American Contemporary Theatre. The Triumph of the Egg and The Blue Concerto, two one-acters, directed by Douglas Woolley, both deal with characters whose lives are desperately, painfully Presidents." Marilyn Seiger's The Blue Concerto also deals with despair. It tells of Harry, who has been left paralyzed from the waist down as the result of an accident. For six months he has been confined to his small apartment, and to him, "six months is like six it's like eternity." The real source of his years concern, however, is that he can no longer sexually satisfy his wife. "There's Helen, a full-blown woman, and I can't given her anything," he complains to Nicky, the young pianist from upstairs, with whom, ironically, Helen has been having an affair. - hopeless. The first, by Sherwood Anderson, shows a man who does not easily give up hope. He runs a failing lunch counter, the kind we are all familiar with, and is determined that the way to build it back up is by feeding his customers "smiles, molasses and jokes." The way to catch flies is, after all, not with honey, but with molasses. Sexual favors Harry approves of Nicky, he tells him; he even if he is a piano player. In fact, respects him we are left wondering if Harry's outpouring is - Lunch break His chance for a "big break" comes by way of Joe Kane, who stops in for a cup of coffee while waiting for his prestigious doctor-father to arrive on the train. The hope Kane brings to the man reminds one of Laura's "gentleman caller" in The Glass Menagerie. Unfortunately, as in the Williams play, young Kane's brief visit to the diner merely emphasizes the hopelessness of the man's situation, and leaves him more lost than before. He attempts to entertain Joe by telling stories which eventually become preoccupied, rambling monologues, through which we learn of his past experiences as a chicken farmer. Locked in a trunk behind the counters are jars containing freak chickens with seven legs and two heads, which the man proudly displays to Joe as a further attempt to entertain him. He then tries some tricks with eggs, making an egg stand on its end, getting it to slip down the neck of a bottle. But the egg shells crack and break, like his own fragile life, and Joe Kane, tike the rest of the world, turns away, disinterested. You've got to have friends, so the all women rock band.

In the last scene we hear Nicky's music, a subtle blues piece which has set the mood for the play, which he uses as a way of communicating with Helen, apologizing to her. "Are you listening?" Harry asks her, in reference to some advise he has been giving her. "Yes, I'm listening," she answers, but we know that it is Nicky and not Harry she is listening to. This play, like the first, deals with people caught in a web of despair. Woolley again plays the lead foie (Harry), and is again touching and believable. Judith Felton, as Helen, Is superb.

Whether it be tuning up for the next number or taking a final bow, the group is as confident and professional as any around. And last Thursday night they showed a sell-out crowW at the Century Theater just why they've been around for a long, long time. The group has gone through numerous musical and personnel changes, but this current version seems to be pretty tight. The old stand-bys are still there: Mick Fleetwood, with his exaggerated and impeccable drumming; John McVie, very quietly playing his bass in the shadows of the amplifiers; and Christine McVie, crooning and swaying, shaking her hair teasingly while pounding on a piano. mystifying, Mellow But the "newcomers" aren't all that bad either. Stevie Nicks floats all over the stage, making graceful yet obscene little gestures but singing with a powerful voice. And Lindsey Buckingham, shirt opened to his navel, dancing and pracing all over the stage, talks to his guitar his hands and makes it sing back loud and clear. Together these with individuals form one of the assembled. most unique and talented bands ever Rocking with the first chord, Fleetwood Mac didn't look back long enough to see if the audience could catch up. Sticking mostly to new material, they showed faithful followers that they could play rock and roll, even though their reputation for mellowness is well deserved. Buckingham never once seemed inhibited, and every time the spotlight hit him he took advantage of it. Up and down, in and out, he caressed his guitar to get some of the best sounds the Century's old walls ever had a chance to echo. The rest of the band followed his lead. But Mick Fleetwood had complete control, and everyone in the band knew it. His grotesque facial expressions and exaggerated motions may have looked like an innocent act, but imperceptible nods and gestures gave the band something to focus on. He was in command; there was no doubt about it. He knew what the crowd wanted and when they wanted it, and in most cases, he gave it to them by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor “Man is a destroyer," says deSade in Marat/Sade. “But if he destroys and takes no pleasure in it, he is a .machine. He should destroy with passion, like a man." In that sense, Lucien Lacombe, the 18-year-old French peasant about whom Lacombe, Lucien centers, is the most absolute of machines. It is 1944, and Lucien is part of the Gestapo, engaged in hunting down members of the French underground. Not only does he destroy without passion, he never performs an action that betokens the presence of appreciable any emotion. He is a totally self-contained universe; his view of the world is not unlike that of the Aristotleans who found it impossible to conceive that the earth was not the center of the universe. the word is Similarly, Lucien is a creature composed solely of correct, he is less than human needs. (Desires, being emotional in nature, are alien - — to him as are any vindictive impulses. He performs according to our social models for "civilized" living, but there is no motivation: his manners are waste motions without meaning He most resembles a zoo no monger wild, but coldly savage beyond animal - - denial.) accident or a feat of breathtaking, artless acumen matters little. He succeeds totally in the role, bringing an authentic naturalness to this most "unnatural" of roles (or, in a way, most truly natural). After a time, his stony, near-motionless features seem set in constant definace; one grows enraged at his impassivity. But however stony Blaise remains, he never grows lifeless; what he lacks is not life, but animation. Even more than Frankenstein's monster, Lucien is the human animal, Man without a soul. Compare Lucien's soullessness, though, with that of the other French who have "converted" to the Gestapo, the men with whom Lucien works. Consider their delight in torturing the resistance leader who rejected Lucien's attempt to join the underground, and their constant coarseness and vulgarity. Malle forces us to make a highly polaric choice; is inhumanity performed coldly and mechanically? Would you rather be murdered by a maniac or by a machine? reflection: the apropos additional, the and film, in is of bloodier guilty, "resistance" more intemperate acts of outrage than those we see the Gestapo performing. Lucien, certainly, would be doing much the same were he among them, but "with God on his side" this time. The true inhumanity the war is far distant; what at first like the roar of cannon turns out to be may sound merely thunder. An — Master caster Malle casts as Lucien young Pierre Blaise, a real French country boy who has not only never acted before, but has seen hardly any films. Knowing this before one sees the film, this may appear to be of superficial relevance and questionable real value The on screen results, however, prove Malle's instinct to lie unerring Not only Malle's, but Blaise's instinct as well; whether his total embodiment of Lucien is a lucky — War is peace In fact, although the tide of the battle is about to turn in favor of the Allies, the French town where most of Lacombe, Lucien takes place could hardly be under less of a state of siege; our preconceptions of the way of life in a "conquered land" fail to hold. —continued on page 12— What's the buzz For instance, during a break between songs, someone yelled out to fix the buzzing that seemed so loud and obnoxious throughout the show And when John McVie said it annoyed him as well, the audience started getting restless. But Fleetwood simply tapped out a rhythm and Chris McVie started into an old favorite, "Spaie Me A Little," from Bare Trees The crowd applauded appreciably, settling back to listen to Chris' sweet melody Fleetwood was in command, and the audience respected his authority The highlight of the evening had to be Stevie Nicks' "Rhiannon, from their new album Starting out slowly and (tauntingly, Stevie told the story of the mysterious lady that everyone wants to love And when Buckingham started in, she stepped aside and became that lady, gliding and swaying to his long and breathtaking solo It is think the questionable that the song could be done any better, and band knew it I Don Juan After a few more songs from their new album, including "Monday Morning" and "Blue Letter," Chris McVie stepped out from behind her piano to take the spotlight with the group's current hit, "World Turning." Fleetwood strutted off his platform with a conga drum, doing a unique but effective drum solo which was also greatly appreciated. The band joined in again, and the three part harmony of McVie, Nicks and Buckingham never sounded better. The encore was a surprise: they played "Hypnotized” from Mystery To Me. Probably the most recognizable number the group has ever done, it is a very difficult song to perform live But they carried it off well, although it didn't seem to fit in quite as well with the rest of the songs of the evening. Perhaps that's what the band wanted, though. Another rocker would have meant another encore, and even though they only played an hour and a quarter, it is inconceivable to me that they could have had energy enough to play longer. Warm ups Only two things kept the concert from being a perfect evening. The two warm up bands. Week End and The Amazing Rhythm Aces, were competent but far from entertaining. Surely the crowd was anxiously awaiting Fleetwood, McVie, and Company, but it seems to me a good warm-up could only help the audience. For what Harvey and Corky paid them, they might have been able to come up with another group that the crowd would have been more receptive to. Last, but not least by any means, was the buzz that started during Weed-End and ended when they told everyone to go home. Not only did it annoy the crowd and the musicians, it made it difficult to understand announcements and song introductions. Repair work did nothing to improve the situation and only made the wait for Fleetwood Mac that much longer. Hopefully the sound system can be improved before the next show, because it seems that these difficulties pop up concert after concert. It's too simple a way to ruin good John Trig!Ho evenings Prodigal Sun Friday, 17 October 1975 . The Spectrum .

Anyway, Cliff's portrayal of Ivan captured the soul of many a disenfranchised white suburban youth (rude boy as punk) and opened many eyes to the beauty of reggae spirit. The Harder They Come soundtrack at first faded from the racks, only to resurface and sell like crazy when the move was discovered and made into a cult. With the soundtrack Cliff showed himself to be an innovator: hence by Joe Fernbacher Special to The Spectrum in the long run more important than Bob Marley; a musician struggling for something more than individual identity. Struggling, indeed, after thS initial success of The Harder The Come Cliff was misguided into a feigned stardom and produced a number of slick, more soul than reggae, Ips, Unlimited and Music Maker neither of which had the emotive force of the first album. But again, in the current wave of reggae resurgence. Cliff has released a new album entitled. Follow My Mind which shows that he is an innovator, not the poet, we'll leave that to Marley who's much better at it than Cliff, and as an innovator he'll be the prime force behind the eventual success of reggae in the States. Comparatively speaking. Bob Marley's the Elvis of reggae; and Jimmy Cliff is the Jerry Lee Lewis, with Toots and the Maytals following close behind as reggae's answer to Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. The exact origins of the reggae beat are shrouded in a gauzy sheet of unheralded instances no one had the foresight to preserve for sake of future histories, and in a strange and wonderful way, that's good, because it lends a touch of magic to reggae music that hints of dark rituals and voodoo. Actually, if one were to attempt and trace the spread of reggae, you'd have to give an enormous amount of credit to the mid-fifties r & b slippin' and a sliddin’ through the airwaves from New Orleans to the West Indies. Many a Jamaican danced to the beat of Fats Domino, Huey 'Piano' Smith and Louis Jordon, whilst drinking beer down on Beeston Street with the rude boys and sound system operators. Of course, at the time it wasn't called reggae music, it was called Ska. Ska was originated by Lyn Tail and came because of his experiments with two-guitar interplays that created a jerky shuffling rhythm, whose infectiousness caused many a pair of feet to jump for joy on the dance floor. From Ska, to Blue Beat, to Rock Steady; which presented a new style on the musical arrangement; horn sections and heavy piano sections were de-emphasized and the accent was shifted to guitar and bass, further adding to the complex textures of the music. about • Rasta man Meanwhile, as Lyn Tail was experimenting with creating the music of West Indian street life, another factor began to creep into the beat. Up until this piont it had been a purely musical adventure, when the Rastas began to influence the music they gave it a strong and evocative philosophical base, a stance that has grown considerably over the years. The Rastas, and Rastafarianism, have a multi-faceted set of doctrines which range from the plea of Marcus Garvey for repatriation, to the jah divinity of Ras Tafari who was crowned Emperor Haile Selassie, King of Kings, the conquering Lion of Judah. Yet, the most visible aspect of the Rasta movement was the reports of violence in the thirties by the Niyabingi Order: Ethiopians who contended that racial war was the only way to be rid of white domination. As if the Niyamen weren't enough, the Rastas began to cite Psalms for justification to smoke pounds and pounds of ganji. So, the Rastas added a philosophy of violent overthrow of Babylon, dope smoking and religious fervor to the music of the West Indian streets, thereby giving it the inner strength to not only survive, but eventually, become extremely popular in Babylon, a true revolutionary cultural musicality. Musically speaking, the most influential moment in the reggae movement occurred when a white Jamaican, Chris Blackwell, formed Island records and later, 1968, merged with the owners of the Coxsone and Blue Cat labels to form Trojan Records, the single most important label in contemporary reggae music. Such internationally known reggae artists as Toots and the Maytals, Jimmy Cliff, the Soul Vendors and Bob Marley and the Wailers had their beginnings on the Trojan label. lOR TOAST PLUS 2 COUNTR^ JFRESH EGGS, as you like 3 *105 ’em.» _ I 3300 SHERIDAN DRIVE ? -3632 UNION 3_.

Why not? It's only rock n' roll, really!

Back to Cliff. His first exposure to the masses in the States came in a little viewed film called ,The Harder They Come, which is about Ivan, a country boy, who wants, and does, to become a recording star, gets shafted from the white-controlled record label, runs dope, kills a cop and finally does a John Wayne on all the police after him. The Harder They Come just might be the best rock n' roll - - Sally Quinn, We're Going to Make You a Star (Simon & Schuster 1975, $7.95) One rainy Saturday in February 1974, Sally Quinn sat alone and read, for the first time, the initial reviews of her debut as co-anchorperson on the CBS Morning News. “I sat on my bed and sobbed as I read each review over and over and remembered the pain. I wanted to explain things to the critics, who had so much to criticize legitimately about CBS and about my ineptitude and lack of experience, but who instead contented themselves with cutting personal attacks." The result is We're Going to Make You a Star, a sometimes hilarious, gossipy narration of Quinn's childhood as an Army brat (she became known as a bitch, as she later learned from Kris Kristofferson), her landing a job at the Washington Post with no journalism experience (only her social connections), her being offered and accepting the CBS position, and her return to the Post. The heart of the book relates the machinations of the CBS leviathan, providing an insider's glimpse of the human side of those faces that are so familiar: Mike Wallace is "the worst gossip;" Walter Cronkite is "the most decent;" John Chancellor has "great integrity," Charles Collingwood is "terribly pompous;" and Ray Gandorff is "the strong, silent, Hemingway type." Besides Quinn herself, it is Hughes Rudd who is the main attraction; he's an irreverent knight saving time after time, both the News and Sally Quinn, Finally, Quinn, as others before her, hands us woman, no cry Follow My Mind not only takes up where The Harder They Come left off, but on many occasions is simply better. A right off the bat example is Cliff's rendition of Marley's, "No Woman, No Cry;" a tune that'll soon be the battle cry of reggaeitis. This rendition also points up the fact that on many occasions in music, especially rock oriented music, the creator of the song has his song enhanced by another vocalist's arrangement, a classic example of this was Lou Reed's song, "Rock n' Roll" which Lou did fairly on the fourth Velvet Underground album. Everyone was happy with Lou's version until Mitch Ryder and Detroit came along and made the song the classic it is today. On the three versions of "No Woman, No Cry" currently circulating: the studio version from the Waiters' Natty Dread Ip; the live 45 version by the Waiters recorded at the Lyceum in London, England; and the version on the Jimmy Cliff, the Cliff rendition is more spiritually fulfilling and musically superior. Cliff's vocal adds dimensions to a song which already had about 12 dimensions. Two other songs are noteworthy as innovations in the genre. One is the title track "Follow My Mind" with Cliff's sublime vocal careening through the ether and his sense of self overwhelming all it comes in contact with. This is an example of the "new" reggae style, one that is imbued with lush, yet simple, production values and directly stated polemics. The other song, which equates quite nicely with the intent of The Harder They Come is "Hypocrites." For those interested in seeing reggae for themselves, UUAB will be presenting Jimmy Cliff and Taj Mahal in concert on Thursday, October 23, in the Century Theater. If you've seen The Harder They Come, and if you've never had the reggae experience, this'll be the show of the shows. Of further note is the fact that on November 2 at the Loew's Buffalo, the UUAB Music Committee will be bringing yet another reggae-oriented show. This time it'll be Toots and the Maytals fronted by Americas only rock n' roll band, Little Feat. This one shapes up as the spiritual event of the year for musicophiles. Our Weekly Reader indictment of New York City for being the superficial, status-conscious, ulcer-producing environment that provincials have always known it to be Obviously CBS Morning News buffs will be interested in the gossip Quinn provides. If you're a buff, however, be forewarned; you're going to need a cast iron stomach to jerk your way through these pages. Her style may be palatable on newsprint, but its continual hammering close "I had agreed to stay paragraphs with ctyptic summary sentences over the next day and write a pilot," "I agreed to stay over and film the pilot the next day;" "It was too easy;" "Amen;" "1 would wait a month or two" induces stupor over the span of 256 pages. it must have been, And if the book was intended as humorous since there is certainly no tragic importance given to, say, the assassination of Robert Kennedy for whom Quinn was working in San it is primarily redeemed by the inclusion of Francisco at the time transcripts of the CBS Morning News. These passages speak for themselves and really don't require Quinn's commentary on them. (An edition of the transcripts would be more welcome than this book.) Sally Quinn was "offered the job of knocking Barbara Walters off the air" not because of her television experience but because of her "reputation as an irreverent Washington reporter." Without any training, as she points out ad nauseam, it is little wonder that she failed as a broadcaster, and it is for this very reason that she fails as an author. Journalese, designed for quick consumption in small doses, does not, one learns, necessarily make a good book. —C. Banning an — — — - Friday, 17 October 1975 . The Spectrum . Page thirteen �each. Yet, the dynamism alluded to in the diagonal interaction between large and small cube is an arrested one, since the stone is no longer organic but rigidly geometric. It is as if these cubes and their arrested interaction are the “Consummate M ask of Rock,” they and the rationality they symbolize are the perfected masks which cover the need for human All in all, Nauman's companionship. exhibit reflects the idea that rationality often deters the emotions which make man human, that man too often masks his desires, his humanity, with a machine like Albright-Knox Emphasis is on ideas by Janice Simon Spectrum Arts Staff Silence, the minimal, the mysterious and the incomprehensible, confront those who enter the exhibition room. A square measuring 30 feet on a side is formed by eight groups of limestone cubes, each group consisting of one 15 inch and one 14 inch cube diagonally opposed to each other. Upon a side wall are a few preparatory drawings and the proof for the printed sheets of poems of which the viewer may take a copy. This is Bruce Nauman's "The Consummate Mask of Rock" now on view at the Albright Knox Art Gallery until November 9. The simplicity of the exhibition alone disturbs the viewer, for it seems that there should be more, that visual art is more than a smooth cubic stone forming a square. This irritation of the spectator as to what art is, what its limits are and what elements are necessary to create art is a major concern of Nauman's exhibit. Bruce is specifically involved with Nauman exploring beyond the established concepts of art, as this exhibition reveals. Unlike traditional works of visual art, Nauman's exhibit combines the literary with the visual. In fact, due to the extreme reduction of the visual aspect of the exhibition, the literary, which is a collection of sentences playing with the words mask, need, cover, rock, truth, pain. and fidelity human companionship, predominates especially since one can take a copy home to ponder over, pushing the cubes to the back of one's mind. What occurs is an emphasis on the idea of the exhibit rather than on the art object itself, as is the tendency in traditional art works. Even the sketches and the attention given to them in the exhibition (hanging on the wall a copy is xeroxed for the viewer to take home) reflect this concept.

Apparently, Nauman concerned with evoking a mood of contrast Iretween the emotions suggested in his poem, like pain, need and desire, and the implied by the rational restraint arrangement of the cubes and their austere quality Having the cubes diagonally placed alludes to interaction, perhaps that which the concept of human is inherent in companionship Nariman's drawings even reveal this concern with the diagonal,/for the diagonals of the square are noted in & H,ml Theatre is For t Drive Tiiik as nothing, as just a simple e, or to be more precise, nonexistent.

Garfunkel's material consists of mainly slow to medium tempo, ballads that try to showcase his ultra-high voice. This album features three cover versions of other artists' songs as well as the long awaited reunion with Paul Simon on one song. The album, although very disappointing and plastic, does have a couple of bright spots. "My Little Town," written and co-sung by Simon, is about as good a comeback song for Simon and Garfunkel as could be hoped for. It's filled with all the energy and excitement of S&G's "The Boxer," and the vocals are sung with feeling and intensity. With the way both Simon and Garfunkel's careers are going, it wouldn't be much of a surprise to find out they were getting back together on a permanent basis. Simon's last album sold much less than anticipated, and his recent single featuring Phoebe Snow failed to make the top 20, which for a Paul Simon has to be considered a flop. Garfunkel's last few singles have bombed and he appears to be orr the verge of losing his old S&G following. All things recording Joni Mitchell's "Judgement of the Moon and Stars." One good aspect of the album is the production work of Richard Perry. Perry knows all the angles of production and an Art Garfunkel poses no challenge to him. The instrumental backing suitably fits Garfunkel's voice with excellent arrangements of both horns and strings. The musicians are all first rate, with Larry Knechtal on piano, Joe Osborn on bass, and John Guerin on drums, among others. The biggest flaw of the album is the choice of material. Garfunkel obviously needs guidance as to considered, the most logical thing for the two to do would be to reunite. The other highlight of the album is the remake of the old Flamingos hit, "I Only Have Eyes For You." The song was tailor made for Garfunkel's voice and he gives a masterful rendition of this aged standard. Unfortunately, the eight tracks aside from "I Only Have Eyes For You" and "My Little Town," are at best mediocre. They're either second rate remakes of other artists' compositions or your typical easy listening ballads. Garfunkel's biggest mistake was recording the Beach Boys' "Disney Girls." Art Garfunkel simply should not be recording Beach Boy songs. It's comparable to Helen Reddy Paul Simon, Still Crazy — what songs to choose and what not to choose. Unless this album is intended as a vehicle for a new career in Las Vegas, which it may very well be, Garfunkel has shown an almost complete abandonment of his folk-rock roots. Garfunkel should reunite with Simon and get down to business again or he'll croon his way into Vegas only to become another nightclub singer a la Andy Williams and Wayne Newton. —Steven Brieff After All These Years (Columbia) that's getting there. In the title cut, he sings beautifully some melodic notes. His voice is still as pleasing as every. He's also dropped his political commentary in song but his voice still contains a feeling of paranoia. The concept of the album is very nostalgic. All of the songs tell about his childhood, when he first got married and the constant love he has for his wife. He starts this mood right off, telling about a reunion with an ex-flame: / met my old lover/On the street last night/She seemed so glad to see me, I just smiled/And we talked about some old times/And we drank ourselves \ 1 | SS i Ka W HAiSter Donut® some beers/StiH crazy after all these years . . . Art Garfunkel joins him in a song about Simon’s childhood and the experiences in school he called "My Little Town:" In my little town/1 grew up believing/God kept His eye on us all/And He used to lean upon rpe/As pledged allegiance to the wad/L ord recall/My little / / town. . . don't know why Simon sticks to the same mode throughout his album, but he stilt shows his genius in songwriting on this album. And to hear Simon and Garfunkel together again for one song really leaves you in an optimistic frame of mind. Still Crazy After AH These Years, an album with an appropriate title, makes you wish Simon would make a different kind of music.

To the critic with an inquiring ear and a probing and razor sharp mind ( like this humble critic's) the reason is only too obvious. Olivia is craftily mocking the mechanization and de humanization of a post-industrial society run by greedy capitalists. It is a tribute to Fig's talents she can hide such an urgent message behind a shabby and plastic veneer. But Olivia isn't satisfied with merely playing the role of the scathing social critic. Oh no, she also understands the revolutionary potential of rock and roll. Her rendition of "Summertime Blues" shakes with sweat (yes, Olivia perspires occasionally) and rolls with raunch showing the Who, Blue Cheer and that old, fat fool Elvis just how the song should be done. It is a triumph, an instant classic. Rumors are circulating in rockdom that John Denver and Fig, for the sake of eugenics and the music world in general, plan to rear a covey of androgenous offspring. The possibility of such a union is mindboggling. Just think, it could be the start of a super race of blonde haired, blue eyed creatures like the King Family. But until speculation is given birth to by reality, Olivia Newton-John's Clearly Love is no cheap affair or decadent infatuation. It displays all the depth and maturity of Helen Reddy in her "I Am —OtisB. Driftwood Woman" period.

[ savages 1 It's been a couple of years since we last heard from Paul Simon. And now he's come back with some of his old musical crew, including Art Garfunkel and Phoebe Snow, and he's brought us his latest creation, Still Crazy After AH These Years. Unfortunately, it doesn't meet up to either of his first two efforts and results in a mixed blessing. What troubles me about this album is that Simon doesn't get into the variety of music he had in the first two solo albums. There aren't any Spanish-influenced tunes like "Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard" or rhythm and blues attempts like "One Man's Ceiling is Another Man's Floor." He prefers to remain folksy with immaculate string and horn arrangements. Simon never gets around to displaying a faster and different change of pace until the second side, when he does "Gone at Last," with Phoebe Snow and the Jesse Dixon Singers, a gospel-ish tune done in a quick beat. Right after that, he reverts right back to the usual folk music. Let's not knock it altogether, though. Garfunkel may have the beautiful voice, but Simon has a voice Olivia Newton-John, Clearly Love (MCA) Just when the musical world is critically hamstrung with a terminal case of noncreativity, Olivia.

Page fifteen �Dan Fogelberg, Captured Angel (Epic) Someone once suggested, that if you wanted something done right, "You'd have to do it yourself." To put it as simply as possible, Dan Fogelberg's new album. Captured Angel is a one-man masterpiece. Fogelberg has written, produced and is responsible for all the instruments (with the exception of drums and an occasional bass) throughout the album. On Captured Angel all the flashy musicianship and gimmicky production instituted by most recognition crazed musicians has been put aside in favor of a more deliberate and better planned style that lights up artistry in big bold letters. Fogelberg fits into the Eagles/Jackson Browne school of country rock. He spent a good deal of the past year touring with the Eagles, and familiarity between the two is evident. But he easily outclasses his predecessors. His music lacks the tacky and simplistic rhythms and harmonies that have rocketed the Eagles into the pop spotlight. Dan has instead chosen to venture off into a more personalized style that utilizes acoustic and electric instrumentation much like America while adding a gritty country and western flavor to many of the songs. Cgptured Angel is a very personal album. The lyrics evoke a feeling of self reflection and inner thought. They are of a poetic nature. Hedging on a contemplation of the past, while setting up a game plan for the future: One too many days I've felt forgotten And one too many nights I've slept alone.

Too much of the music on this album sounds the same; if the seven-second break between songs were shortened just enough, one might think it is a pause between sections of the same song. The instrumentaion is diverse enough; the band employs flutes, saxes and clarinets to achieve many interesting effects. The guitar work on the part of Taj Mahal has some beautiful Flamenco overtones. The band utilizes percussion, however, with the most proficiency, especiail\ to achieve the distinctive Carribean sound known as reggae. Taj Mahal has an ability to diversify his vocals enough so that we don't crave another singer as in many other single-vocalist bands. He has the guttural raunchiness of a Sly Stone, but can easily swoon with a smoothness that is clearly Marvin Gaye influenced.

"Aristocracy" has a terrific New Orleans Mardi Gras arrangement, but is marred by an awful recitation of mediocre poem by Inshirah Mahal which serves only as a distraction to the fine background music. The album is flawed, and lacks sophistication. Yet, if you enjoy simple, well-executed reggae music, the album should prove a pleasant experience. Tom T. Hall, Greatest Hits, Volume 2 (Mercury) Country music is a genre that doesn't usually appeal to students. Leading country singers, like Merle Haggard, have written lyrics rather hostile to all them radical young kids ("Okie from Muskogee," "Fightin' Side of Me"). The appeal of country music has nothing to do with the music itself, and fpr that matter, a high quality <of singing isn't really necessary. What country music does rely on is identification with the lyrics. The lyrics tend to be about working in sawmills and factories, about small town poverty, about loved ones leaving on Greyhounds, about all sorts of things not usually in the experience of largely urban, middle-class college students. For those who can relate to the lyrics, though, country music is a strong expression of the bittersweet life America offers tens of millions of its people. Tom T. Hall writes bittersweet songs for rather mellow country fans. While he doesn't have the hardboiled redneck approach of Merle Haggard, he avoids the country commercialism of Johnny Cash and others. His songs have titles like "Country Is," "I Like Beer," "Who's Gonna Feed Them Hogs," and "Deal" (no, it's about cards). —Jerry Page sixteen . The Spectrum .

This Ordinance makes interesting reading. It prohibits, among many the display of any picture, movie, book, magazine, etc., “the cover or content of which exploits, is devoted to, or is principally made up of descriptions or depictions of illict sex or sexual immorality.” “Aha,” I thought as I read that, “the framers of this law were trying to impose their own sexual norms on the rest of us it is directed against what they think of as “kinky sex.” After all, I reasoned, ‘“consensual sodomy’ i.e., acts involving contact between penis and anus, mouth and penis, or mouth and is (unfortunately) illegal in this state vulva both for homosexual and heterosexual unmarried couples; after all, the Bible prohibits at least the first of such sexual acts between males; and after all, the framers of this law are religious (by and large, Roman Catholic), law-abiding, sexually conventional, utterly narrow-minded, intolerant, American citizens.” Boy, was I wrong! I mean, if only the new ordinance were noo worse than that! But it is. Reading on, I learned that “illicit sex or immorality” does mean “sodomy.” But according to this Ordinance, it also means “acts of human masturbation, sexual intercourse fondling or other erotic touching of human genitals, pubic region, buttock or female breast.” Yet not one of these acts is prohibited by the laws of the United States, New York, Erie County, or the City of Buffalo. In other words, they are plainly not “illicit.” Okay, so the framers went a bit overboard, their righteous zeal led them into a little gross illogic. (Imagine, calling the missionary position “illicit”!) No they did more than that. They showed their hand. By defining practically a//"sexual activity as “illicit and immoral,” they practically admitted that the aim of this law is not to protect children from “evil,” but to protect everybody from sex. Worse, it’s not just sexual activity that’s “illicit and immoral,” but even “human genitals in a state of sexual stimulation or arousal.” In other words, according to the framers of this law, there’s something very wrong, which should be punished, about pictures or descriptions of human beings who are sexually excited or in any way alive to their own and others’ attractiveness. This is an Anti-Excitement Ordinance, directed against Desire. so-called like every the way, By “anti-obscenity” law I’ve ever read, this Ordinance uses strings of fancy words to say and disparage what its authors don’t (or pretend they e.g., don’t) like and are therefore outlawing lust, passion, lascivious, indecent, lewd, prurient, intelligent, but liberated, The obscene. inexperienced or unwary reader might think that each of these words had, at least in law, a precise, unique meaning; that each pointed to not just sex, but to specific conduct and feelings that — — - every “moral” man or woman is or ought to be ashamed of. Such a reader might never suspect that all of these words mean, suggest, and attempt to degrade, just about the same thing viz. sexual desire. The leading American college dictionary, for instance, defines “prurient” as defines '‘lascivious in thought or desire, “lascivious” in turn as “lewd, lustful,” defines “lust” in turn as “intense sexual desire,” and “lewd” as “sexually unchaste . . . obscene,” etc., etc. If your head is spinning from going around in such circles, you can regain some balance by thinking about Dr. Kinsey’s definition of a viz. “someone who has “nymphomaniac” more sex than you do.” Two. The new Ordinance also prohibits display of any book or magazine “the cover or content of which . . . consists of pictures of nude or partially denuded figures posed or presented in a manner to provoke or arouse lust or passion” whether or not the figures themselves are doing or feeling anything even remotely sexual. But this makes no sense. By disregarding differences ir\ individual response, it seems to prohibit almost every picture and almost no picture of a human being, at the same time. 1 mean, there are certain “figures” let’s face it which, whatever they’re wearing or not wearing, and however they’re “posed or presented,” will almost invariably “arouse lust or passion" in certain observers. On the other hand, there are certain moods which almost everyone gets into from time to time, when the sight ot almost any reasonably good-looking figure will "arouse lust or passion.” (Then again, there are other moods when almost nothing not even the sight of one of those super-sexy figures 1 mentioned earlier could possibly arouse lust or passion.) - — - - - One thing the framers of this Ordinance don’t seem to understand is that there are no absolute canons of provocativeness. no universal not even any "local criteria of what’s sexy guidelines.” Being turned on is only to a limited degree a function of the "prevailing standards in the adult community” (another phrase from this Ordinance), of conventional good looks and “types.” Whether or not a man or woman will be sexually aroused by this or that sight depends on his or her total physical and psychological ultimately, on a combination ol makeup heredity and environment, particularly very early childhood. We may speak, perhaps, ot the “sexual instincts of the species” when discussing the mating habits of bees and even dogs. But whether one human being will be sexually aroused by the sight of another is a complicated, as yet unpredictable, function of individual sexual orientation (i.e., degree to which one is homoerotic or heteroerotic), taste, and mood. Ah! But now, I suspect we’re coming to the heart of the matter. For I wouldn’t be at all surprised sexual to learn that it is precisely these things the orientation, taste, mood, even fantasies exictemenl and growth of individual minds as well as bodies, that the framers of this Ordinance have opted avidly, though perhaps not quite consciously, to regulate. - - - � � � o c At least they (the framers) look that way at least they did on September 30 in City Hall, when the Common Council unanimously approved the Ordinance, after approximately five minutes of "deliberation.” By the “framers,” I don’t mean only, or even primarily, members of the Council. Although Councilman Raymond Lewandowski proposed this Ordinance, he didn't write it. In fact, it is based pretty closely (in large word for word) on a “model sections, anti-obscenity law” drawn up by Morton Hill. S.J., of “Morality in Media,” a national organization which through local groups has recently been pushing it, often heavy-handedly, and almost invariably with the active backing if not at the instigation of the Roman Catholic Church, in towns and cities across the nation. II the group in the public gallery of the Council Chamber on September 30 was any clue, Buffalo is no exception. Aside from a dozen or so representatives from the Free Libertarian Party and the Gay Community Services Center, the audience, most of whom evidently knew one another, consisted almost exclusively of priests, overstuffed and/or withered, middle-aged and older women (including quite a lew nuns in old-fashioned full habits and one square-faced, extraordinarily pale lady in Salvation Army uniform), and old men (notably, one bag of bones and wrinkles modestly embalmed in American Legion drag). - (0 5* o bMi S3 Most of these people were wearing lots of crosses, anti-Equal Rights Amendment metal buttons, medals, religious and military insignia of many varieties. They seemed protected, or at least covered, by a sort of armor. And not just external armor, but their very muscles seemed to be arranged to protect them from moving, breathing, and feeling freely. I’m speaking, 1 suppose, of the physical “character armor” which Wilhelm Reich first described and accounted for e g., tense scalp and forehead, stiff neck and shoulders, rigid back, cramps, sunken jerkiness. immobile facial muscular defenses against eyeballs, cold sweat the release of "vegetative” energy, against the expression of liveliness and potency. - - - Incidentally, few of those who sat in the "anti-obscenity section” seemed likely to be the aprents of children under seventeen most were avowed celibates and/or just looked too old. Don't get me wrong: I'm not speaking against the Aged (I wish them health, productivity, and a the sort of old age I myself am wild sex life till the day they die), the looking forward to Ascetic, the Desexed, or even against the just-plain-not-very-erotic. But if people no longer feel sexual desire, or will themselves to repress or deny what desire they feel, let them at least have the courtesy to keep to themselves, to repress only their own desires, to spread premature death elsewhere. Mr. Mayor, please veto this Ordinance. Members of the Council, repeal it before it’s too late.

Mikoll. Jomo was originally charged with first degree murder of inmates Kenneth Hess and Barry Schwartz (three counts), first degree kidnapping of Hess, Schwartz, and eight prison employees (38 counts), coercion (two counts) and unlawful imprisonment (two counts). The following is the text of a statement by Jomo explaining his decision. 1 am accepting a plea to "coercion” which will end the five indictments against me in which 1 would be facing over 40 sentences of 20 years to life imprisonment. In everyday terms, this means that I am hopeful that I do not have- to serve any more time in New York State, and now be returned to Virginia’s penitentiary where 1 will work to secure my release on parole as soon as possible. I have done as much and taught as much as I can Irom prison. I have told about the massacre by the State at Attica (which 1 witnessed and which nearly killed me) in every forum available to me.

I took and passed a lie-detector test that was administered by the former commanding officer of the South Brooklyn homicide squad.

This is not to say we shouldn’t defend ourselves in the courtroom or wherever if we are attacked, and I feel we should aid in every possible way we feel necessary those who have no choice but to defend themselves there. But I feel that if someone can come out of prison without putting somebody in their place, they’d be a fool not to go. I’m not going through no more changes on this level here. I want to go to the street, and I’m not putting anybody down to get there. I’m not going to put nobody in my cell to get me out, but like I say, anytime I can get out prison under these conditions without putting somebody in my place, I’ll be a damn fool not to go. Especially when all I would be doing by keeping on messing with these cases is keeping Attica and its horrors alive in a way that the gravy train can keep on rolling, people getting fat, rip-off artists pimping the people in the name of the Attica Brothers. I will not by choice continue to participate in anything which amounts to vultures feeding off a carcass that is my life. by Diane Auerbach Special to The Spectrum (CPS) Registration lines crawled slower than usual this fall at many campuses, as overall college enrollment increased slightly. Yet the lines could have been much longer. Although there are more high school graduates than ever before, Jewer are opting for a college degree, lowering the rate of increase in college enrollment. “People think that this is the end of the baby boom era, that there are fewer college-aged people. This isn’t the case. Fewer are choosing to go to college,” says Jay Stampen, statistical expert at the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU). According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of high school graduates in the country has grown from 2.9 million in 1.970 to 3.1 million in 1975, increasing 7 percent in the past five years. Yet the percentage of those high school graduates who have gone on to college has dropped steadily from an all-time high of 55 percent in 1968 to 47 percent in 1974 l.xperts predict that the downturn will continue for several more years. - Slate box £ • • • about the State police bullets, and about the cover-up I feel the only thing I would accomplish by going to trial now would be to spend money I don’t have, and take a chance on getting twenty-to-life.

But a frequently given reason for declining college attendance, the end of the draft, was not a major factor, according to Slampen "Attendance began declining in 1068, long before the end of the Vietnam war and the draft,” he says. Tuition up Whether the major factor lor declining attendance or not, college costs have jumped drastically. According to a soon-to-be-released Office of I duration study, tuition is rising faster than the consumer price index.

Lipsack, director of Purdue University’s Office of Manpower Studies. Lipsack recently completed a survey of Indiana high school students and found that a smaller proportion of them planned to attend college. “There was a feeling that the job market for college graduates is saturated,” Lipsack says. “The students think, ‘God, you gel a degree and you still can’t get a job!’ The enrollment forecast calls for more gathering clouds.

The announcement that the policy was terminated by Secretary of State Arthur Schlesinger came in a letter to Javits from Thomas W. Carr, Director of Defense. “It’s just as well they rescinded the practice;-!! didn’t seem to have much justification behind it in the first place,” Robert Fitzpatrick, the Acting Vice President for Research at the University, told The civilians who were pursuing graduate studies in engineering, business and medicine. The end of ROTC signaled the end of their financial assistance. Now these people can once again come to this University, and be fully funded by the Defense Department, if they take a program which is academically justified. Fitzpatrick noted, however, that during the time the school was on the “blacklist,” the University continued to receive research grants from the Defense Department. The University dropped ROTC in 1971 because the enrollment had steadily declined, making the program’s continuation unjustified. Other schools, Fitzpatrick stated, had different reasons for eliminating their ROTC programs. The other schools on the “blacklist” were: Harvard University, Yale University, Stanford University, Columbia University, Dartmouth College, Brown University. Colgate University, Boston College, Boston University, New York University, Tufts Institute, Hobard College, and Pratt Institute. Six of these schools are located in New York State. Spectrum.

Overmatched competition has hurt the fall season, but basketball competition could really stir up interest teams if the themselves get psyched to win the title. Mostly, though, time is the key. The success of Big Four depends much more on where it is in five years than on where it is some now. PUMPKINS Surrounded y We're C’mon by 'Em M ALL YOU ... Steps to bus 24 hr. food service available Big four division a success by Larry Amoros Spectrum Staff Writer There is something new on the Niagara Frontier sports scene this year: The Big Four Conference, composed of the area’s four major schools, State University at Buffalo, Buffalo State, Canisius and Niagara. And although the Conference’s inaugural season is only a month old, it appears that the Big Four is already a success. “I certainly think it’s been a success,” said Buffalo Athletic Director Harry Fritz. “It’s provided added interest so far, particularly in soccer and tennis.” Canisius College Athletic Director Daniel Starr agrees with Frit/, stating that "there’s been an increasing interest in this area in the past few years, and the tournament should further help this progress." The only negative aspect ol play so far, was the absence of Niagara at the tennis championships. “I wasn’t very satisfied when Niagara forfeited the tennis match,” commented Big Four commissioner Howard McAdams. “Otherwise, I thought that the competition was very good.” McAdams cited the golf tournament as being particularly well run, and the Soccer tourney as an excellent rivalry. Bull success From Buffalo’s standpoint, the tournament has been an enormous success, as the Bulls have won almost every competition they’ve entered to date, taking firsts in golf, soccer and tennis. The golf championships saw the Bulls shoot their best rounds of the year, and the soccer team won all of its games in the round robin soccer tourney The tennis Bulls also ran away from their local opponents this year. McAdams, Buffalo State’s Athletic Director, is the originator of the Big Four. He and the other athletic directors, Fritz, Starr, and Frank Layden of Niagara, met a year ago last summer to organize the CAN CARRY K •No lease • measured by the number of Big Four championships they have earned. Obviously, the Big Four cannot suddenly become the hottest thing in Western New York, but whether or not it has been at all popular so far is what tournaments.

Surprisingly, though, Buffalo’s Women’s Coordinator Barbara Sevier is not very enthusiastic about it. While she feels that the Big Four is certainly good promotion, she doubts that it will actually be of much use on an athletic level. Some of the suggested improvements for next year include publishing a newsletter about Big Four happenings, getting the coaches more deeply involved in the tournament structure, adding new teams to the tourney and possibly revamping the scoring system. Fritz commented, “We’d like to consolidate and plan a little better sort of expand the program.” At this time, the overall Big Four champion is determined by awarding the winners of each individual tournament a point, with the highest score winning the overall Big Four Championship. The awarding of the first place tournament will be done by Charley Young and Mike Cannally, sports editors of the Buffalo Evenings News and Courier express respectively. They are sponsoring the tournament in hopes of bringing spirited college rivalries back to the Buffalo area. - TONIGHT!! a of Cooreo) $2 50 program, noping to form a long lasting conference, and it appears that they have done so. “One of the main reasons for the tournament was to rekindle the students’ interest towards college athletics,” McAdams continued. The Bengals’ Athletic Director is not alone in his desire to see long range student involvement. Both Starr and Fritz feel the tournament should become a tradition, with strong rivalries built up between the schools. According to Fritz, the basketball competition is “real, real good among the best. There’s a lot of excellent golf in the Niagara Frontier, and the soccer has been surprisingly good.” I A Empire Card Daily 10 to 9-Sun. I to 6 •530 Seneca St. (kt. 16). Elma.

The recent publication of Victor Perlo’s new book, The Economics of Racism supports Gregory’s accusation by providing a compelling account of the connection between the discrimination against black people in all areas of economic life and the enormous corporate profits that result from this discrimination. It is not a new idea that racist discrimination is an integral part of capitalist society. Such critics of capitalism as W.E.B. Dubois and V.l. Lenin made this connection long ago. Lenin wrote: “The position of the Negroes in America in general is one unworthy of a civilized country , - capitalism give cannot either complete emancipation or even Shame on complete equality of the plight for the America ■* Negroes!” in 1972 or 27 percent of total business profits. This extra profit resulted from holding down the wages and salaries of black workers. In 1972, a high official in the telephone company testified before Congress that “what a telephone company needs to know about its labor market is who is available for work paying as little as $4000 to $5000 a year.” This official noted that two out of three persons available at that wage were black, and that is why the company was hiring them. Holding down the wages of blacks, particularly black women, has affected the labor market as a whole. Perlo explains that, “in a period of rapidly expanding demand for clerical labor, the availability of black female workers without alternative job possibilities was important to employers in enabling them to hold down the going wage for all female clerical workers.” ... Job discrimination Perlo’s study, which is based on government census figures, establishes that discrimination against blacks has increased in the 1970’s. Perlo calculates that the total amount of profits Contradictory reports Both the Nixon and Ford administrations have claimed that recent federal legislation requiring non-discriminatory hiring from employers halted the trend of discrimination against blacks. However, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, unemployment among blacks is twice as severe as among whites, both for men and women. Despite the passage of the Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1972, little success has been achieved in realizing job opportunities for blacks. In 1972, of the 51,969 cases of hiring discrimination reported to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, only 28,337 were investigated, and only 726 of these cases were settled favorably. The median black family income in 1972 was only 59 percent of the median white family income, according to government statistics. In 1970, 14 percent of the white population, as opposed to 42.9 percent of the black population, had incomes below the official poverty level. Throughout the 1970’s the ratio of black to white family income has decreased. Even in 1973, when the economy had a boom year, there was nevertheless a sharp decrease in the ratio. Perlo explains that the political climate created by the Nixon administration allowed the racist practices of corporations to go unchallenged in this period. Blacks still occupy the least prestigious of occupations. Perlo points out that 59 percent of private household workers are black, 20 percent of industrial and farm laborers are black, and that in managerial and professional occupations, only three to five percent are blacks. In terms of job promotion, between 1960 and 1970, a young white man had more than three times the chance of a young black man of obtaining a high level promotion. Leaders in black liberation movement have for the most part rejected the Nixon-Ford proposal of black capitalism as the solution to the economic problems of the black population. In struggling against the influence of ideas which encouraged blacks to become capitalists, W.E.B. DuBois that the wrote: “I saw clearly solution of letting a few of our capitalists share with whites in the ... exploitation of our masses, would be a solution of our problem, but the forging of eternal chains.” Henry Winston, a black leader and National Chairman of the Communist Party of the United States of America, takes into account the use of racism by big business. In his book, Strategy for a Black Agenda, he claimed that discrimination against blacks only benefits the monopolies. Winston proposes that the only way racism will be ended is for blacks and whites to unite around a political that has an strategy anti-monopoly character to it. never Student services offer alternatives at minimal cost by Lang Schwartzapfel Spectrum Staff Writer A variety of special service organizations on and around the campus provide alternatives to commercial merchants and professionals who profit from student business but fail to provide these consumers with lower prices and educational benefits. The range of services, the operating structure, and the legal status, of each group are unique in that they cater to the special needs of students, long neglected by the businesses which claimed to serve them. Students at this University are involved in food, housing, book and record cooperatives which are generally structured so that the work, expenses and most of the leadership is shared by the members. Membership, usually a one-time or yearly fee, frequently entitles the member to discounts. Everyone’s Book Cooperative, Inc. on Main Street near Highgate, for instance, charges members a yearly fee Of $5, and requires them to be on one of twelve committees which steer policy on books, space and activities. It tries to stock a different selection of books, covering gaps left by other bookstores in the ciy in areas like contemporary poetry and leftist political and social theory. But the Co-op aspires to be more than just an .outlet for books. Some of the planned projects, according to coordinator Jon Welch, include poetry readings and workshops, a reading and film or music room in the store, and a newsletter and a suggestion box for consumers to request titles they want stocked. \ Accessability Welch said there was a shared sense of purpose among members in trying to make cultural activities accessible to a greater part of the community, and to get local people involved as participants instead of spectators. To some, the cooperative represents an economic alternative whidh could conceivably replace capitalism and transform the relations between people Under a capitalist system. Another group within the co-op supports Welch, who, citing the state laws under which Everyone’s Book Coop was incorporated, argued that the cooperative idea was more an alternative provided within the system than a step towards changing it. “I don’t think they [cooperatives] are revolutionary. 1 think they’re useful,” he stated. Limited goals The Student Record Coop, located in the basement of Norton Hall, admits only to providing students with records at the lowest possible cost, and operating an income-offset business on a shared work basis. Although the record coop appears to be a totally innocuous student organization, it is known that off-campus merchandisers have complained about unfair competition by virtue of the Coop’s rent-free premises on state property. For the moment, however, Record Coop members are happy with business. The North Buffalo Food Coop is an off-campus distributor of wholesome; natural and organic foods. The store has an informal, homespun atmosphere, mixing notices of community events, with posters and collections for causes ranging from the Attica Defense to animal rights. The coop tries to provide an alternative to capitalist food distribution, which dictates to the consumer the quantities that must be bought, sells him packaging which he may not need and keeps hidden, or obscured the most important part of any purchase: the product. The coop is guided democratically by the membership, and has become a community center, as well as a food store, by providing a place to trade, sell, form groups and just hang out. Members have also begun a small community farm project near the Amherst campus. Other ways The Crescent Street Coop, a cooperative living arrangement run by Scholastic Housing Inc. (a division of Sub-Board) and other food coops offer still more alternatives to traditional modes or organizing economic projects. On campus, other measures have been taken to cope with the specific student —continued on page 2— �Student services... 7-contlryjed from page 1 needs. The Student AsSociation-funded Legal Aid Clinic is one response to a representative set of problems: Students are at once isolated from the traditional legal institutions in Buffalo and victimized by that system, which treats them differently from the rest of the community. Director David Richman characterized the Clinic as a kind of “legal first aid,” interpreting legal information for digestion by a student body. The Clinic fulfills a social function in handling many types of problems which do not require the services of a lawyer. It is also able to concentrate on problems common to students, such as landlord-tenant disputes and small claims cases. Richman characterized his staff of undergraduates and law students as “romantics,” who wish to reform the legal structure of society from within. Mr. Richman was optimistic about the prospects for change in legal institutions, predicting that legal aid clinics and pre-paid legal insurance would eventually replace much of the profit-oriented private practice of today. Trauma This would be a “traumatic” change in the legal profession, but he indicated that criticism directed at the Clinic from the American Bar Association has centered on the business its lawyers have already lost to free legal advisory services. i — Other student organizations try in similar ways to cater to the special needs of an urban student body. Counselling centers such as Sunshine House, the Human Sexuality Center and the Harriman Drop-In Center, offer a more personal approach to drug, emotional and birth control/pregnancy counseling. Student Association Travel answers the transportation needs of students with vacation and travel packages tailored to student life-style fewer frills and more activities at a low price. Charter flights to New York City and other popular destinations, leaving at convenient times for the holidays, are supplemented by group programs to Europe and the Carribean. Students are also involved with public broadcasting through WBFO-FM, the only public radio station now operating in Buffalo. The station was founded, and originally funded, by the University’s Educational Communication Center (ECC). Though it has since divorced itself formally from the ECC, supporting itself with individual contributions and grants, the station still broadcasts from Norton Hall and about half its staff are students. General Manager Marvin Granger said much of the initiative for planning and producing new programs comes from staff, Granger said his role is “to tell them what they cannot do rather than what they should be doing.” — Marcia Alvar, Program Director for WBFO, explained that the philosophy of the station is to present different kinds of programs not offered by commercial radio. The full field of radio broadcasting is explored through broadcasts of lectures, interviews, concerts, public events, news and comment, and discussion, in addition to musical shows Other student-developed services have necessarily gone unmentioned here. But the Unifersity setting provides an ideal environment for experimentation, a testing ground for new social ideas, ,which, if proven beneficial to students, could do likewise for the rest of our society.

Founded in 1967, the company blends strong and graceful sign language with mime, dance, music, and simultaneous narration and song. This Friday, the company will present Parade at the State University College at Fredonia. Conceived as a series of parades, demonstrations and encampments, the play chronicles the attempts of a revolutionary deaf girl to establish a separate deaf state. The approach to the theme is farcical and ironic In the past, the NTD has occasionally performed similar self-created works, but more commonly performs traditional, dramatic texts and stage poetry recitals in which deaf actors sign the words while hearing actors speak them. The visual images are intended to portray the poetic nature of the readings. Page two . The Spectrum . T Nine of the twelve actors are deaf, but all use visual language on stage. Although promoters urge deaf people to attend performances, 85 percent of the audience is hearing, and shows are enjoyed by both groups. “Most people who have never seen the NTD assume, because of the actors’ physical handicap, that the company must be in come way artistically limited, that the audience must be prepared to make certain allowances. In fact, the NTD embarrasses all such condecension,” claims New York Times arts critic Henry Weil. “In our performances, the words become the action. There is a new gesture for every word. The spoken narration works like the sub-titles in a foreign movie,” explains NTD’s founder and producing director. “The actors are not actually speaking English, but you tend to remember them as if they were.” Wednesday, 15 October 1975 Second class postage paid at Buffalo, New York.

Specifically mentioned were the checking of cars for parking stickers and ticketing cars that are taking up more than once space. special parking lot for carpools of three of more persons to help solve the student par' ing squeeze on campus has become a reality, said Bob Wallace, Student Association (SA) Director of Commuter Affairs. Ten spaces were allotted in the Michael Hall lot for cars containing three or more people, according to Wallace. Supervision will be maintained by a student attendant and Campus Security. However, Lee Griffin, Assistant Director of Campus Security, doubts that the carpool program will work. “The carpool idea does not have public support,” Griffin said, adding that “as long as people have cars, and the price of gasoline is not prohibitive, people will still want the advantage of using their own vehicles.” A Griffin said his men have been “tagging” vehicles parked illegally. “Last year we gave out over 13,000 tickets,” he said. He added that Security is now giving opt about 120 to 200 tags a week. Griffin commented that the parking problem is expected to be The Association for Professional Health Oriented Students (APHOS) is an organization with the pre-professional, particularly the pre-medical, student in mind APHOS compiles information on both the medical profession and related health professions for students who cannot meet the stringent admissions standards for medical school. The alternatives include Dentistry* Optometry. Podiatry, Veterinary medicine and Osteopathy. The American Medical Association (AMA) says the situation facing prospective doctors applying to med school really isn’t that hopeless, said APHOS President Jeff Levy. The AMA reports that only 13 percent of med school freshmen had “A” averages last year. The vast majority of students applying to medical school in recent years were “B” students, Levy said. This is not to say that “C” students should not apply, since 14 percent of recently entering freshmen med students had “C” averages in science areas, he added. —. , Comraderie “There is one seat in medical school for every three applicants. a club to get away from pre-professional competitiveness. We want to foster a spirit of comraderie,” Levy said. Scholastic achievement is only one criteria for admission to Medical School, according to the AMA. "Peer group advisement” is another service offered by APHOS. Many juniors and seniors in pre-professional fields can offer guidance in what courses to take and other information The club also sponsors social events and a student need not be involved in a pre-health field to join. Levy estimates that the club presently has 125 members. A collection of current pre-professional and medical literature, school catalogues and reference guides is available to any student in the APHOS office in Room 220 Norton Hall API I OS also sends volunteers to local health programs. Levy stressed that this experience is invaluable to health oriented students. He added that the club is hoping to invite members of the medical professional for panel discussions, including Dr. William Nolan, author APHOS is of a Surgeon — -I with this ad COUPON VALID TILL OCTOBER - Half A disappointing turnout hampered this weekend’s Regional Conference of the Student Association of the State University SASU. Although Brockport and Cleneseo did not attend as expected, the State University at Buffalo and Alfred University participated in planned workshops and discussions at the Lllicott Complex. The conference, the first of fo'ur planned by SASU at locations throughout the State this week, was entitled “Student Government Orientation.” Its according to SASU President Bob purpose, members with techniques of decision-making and the power structures of the University. In addition, workshops on such subjects as Title IX and the mandatory student activity fee were held. Space flight The conference began with a discussion on ordering priorities and group decision-making. After an exercise to decide what would be the most important items to take on a space flight, comparing and to those group individual priorities recommended by NASA, the participants were asked to note the lower margin in the group decision. This experiment was designed to train the participants for executive committee and senate decision-making. Then the same groups were asked to list their complaints about the. State University (SUNY) and to suggest courses of action for implementation of change. of Information and SASU Director Communication Todd Rubinstein, who cbnducted the workshop, said the problem with SUNY is that it is too educationally and culturally confining to the individual. • A little box “They want all the students to fit neatly into a little box,” he said, “and sometimes they allow a shape.” “What we want to do is to break down the institutional barriers,” he said. Most of the participants agreed that SUNY students are fragmented and disorganized, and as a whole, uninformed of the issues that affect them. “We must learn to use the system as a tool,” said SASU Vice President for Campus Affairs Stu Hamowitz. “We have to make our school teach us what we want to know, not what they want us to know,” he said. “It should be a place where students become aware not indoctrinated,” he said. 1 * Absolutely no say Later, in a workshop on the mandatory activity fee, Kirkpatrick told the participants that, “What it comes down to is, the student has absolutely no say,” in how his activity fee money is allowed to be spent. He cited the ultimate control exercised last April by this University’s administration when the Student Association allocated $ I 500 for buses to an demonstration. varies,” he said. “At Binghamton an allocation for the very same thing was approved. But there the administration was convinced there would be workshops and events of educational value to the Albany “It students attending.” Most administrations, however, “still like the idea of the little student who doesn’t know how to use his money,” Kirkpatrick said. The final workshop covered Title IX and the governance structures of. the University. Faculty Student Associations, Faculty Senates and College Councils were described and discussed. “Students and faculty need to work together, and perhaps even “trade off” members of their Faculty Senates and Student Associations,” said Rubinstein. The result of such an experiment earlier this year at Binghamton was “very positive for both groups,” he said.

But after decades of filmmaking, director Luis Bunuel seems to have abandoned integrity for intensity in this film. Le Fantome is a mystery from start (why was it so titled?) to finish. If one can accept the film as a mystery not to be solved, it is enjoyable. Bunuel apparently considers many of the issues portrayed inexplicable. In his vision of humanity he highlights the most grotesque, most outrageous examples which he perceives as still within the common experience. This enables him to find a pair of sado-masochists, four drunken, gambling monks, and an incestuous aunt/nephew team all spending the night in an old country inn on a rainy evening. Questions such as the relationship of law to morality, the "true mystery of death," and the uniqueness of any individual are raised, but never reconciled. Bunuel as director is not interested in There is also an excellent burlesque of the dinner party, where the guests must excuse themselves from the table to eat in a little cubicle, then return to their respective toilet bowls, and join the general conversation. Bunuel continues equating man with his excrement, with perhaps some justification. The animals wandering through the set seem almost omniscient, especially the dignified ostrich which reappears at the end. Characters and audience alike are left floundering. Out of touch While the pastoral world flows on, the Parisians grow frantic over self-created problems. The strongest condemnation lies in the complacence with which all these absurdities are accepted. People have become so enslaved, and their reactions so cliched, that they no longer recognize what's going on. Children retaining some vestige of awareness are ignored when they try to inform their elders. This enables a young girl to accompany her parents when they're filling out a missing person's form for their daughter. Of course the girl's presence greatly is or even a plot.

The outcome of a decide whether students will find themselves safe in a medical or law school or out pounding the pavement for a job. causing students both to cheat That pressure for high grades and to keep quiet about the cheating of others is jeopardizing the future of honor codes at several colleges around the country. At Stanford, a “breakdown of ordinary standards of honesty” sparked a re-evaluation of the school’s honor code. Johns Hopkins University ended its 62-year-old honor code when a poll revealed 70 percent of its students had witnessed incidences of cheating and done nothing to stop them. After 50 students were put on probation at the University of Florida, at Gainesville, for bribing janitors to help them secure advance copies of tests, administrators claimed a “revitalization” of the code was necessary. And at the University of Virginia, where the only penalty for conviction of an honor code offense is permanent expulsion, a poll is scheduled for November to determine the future of its code. test (CPS) may — - *- Reluctance to rat Administrators at these schools blame pressure for high grades and a reluctance to “rat” on other students for the crumbling honor codes that ask students to police themselves against cheating and plagiarism. And the offenders, they claim, are frequently excellent students rather than “survival cases” who need to cheat to get by. Stanford’s Ombudsman John Goheen said in a report to the school’s president that “law and medicine, particularly, are attracting very large numbers of students, many more than these professional schools can accomodate. The resulting competition for admission to a professional school is intense.” One of the results of pressure and competition has been more cheating and less student cooperation in enforcing the code, Goheen asserted.

Ten of the 12 students were found to have “consistently high grades and NORDIC X-C SKIING CANOES A CAMPING BACKPACKING fe. m J - _ .. the code. Ken Humphries, a student member of the honor committee, said that most of the dissatisfaction with the code has been over its “single sanction” provision, which mandates that there be no punishment other than permanent expulsion. While a poll is scheduled for November to determine student support, the student-run committee continues to decide cheating cases. Already this fall one student has been dismissed for plagiarism, while another case is on the docket for early October.

Johns Hopkins President Steven Muller said he regretted ending the honor system, but claimed it was necessary since “for some time there have been allegations of pretty consistent cheating. People were saying the honor system was a farce At the University of Florida, the “honor code has been on the decline for a long time because students aren’t willing to testify against other students,” according to Rob Denson, director of student judicial affairs. Although the Florida honor code stipulates that tests not be proctorcd, instructors recently have begun proctoring exams since “many don’t feel the honor code is a deterrent,” Denson said. In spite of a case of teat-stealing involving “hundreds of students” last spring, Denson said he believes the honor code should be “revitalized” rather than abandoned. “If we leave it in writing, it’s good PR,” Denson said, “and after all, Watergate people are more in tune with a code of honor.” Mean wile at the University of Virginia discussion centers on whether students still support 5421 TRANSIT THE ■ were compulsive about high grades.” Five of the students were suspended for violation of the code, which requires students “both within and without the University (to) maintain such respect for order, morality, personal honor and the rights of others as demanded of good citizens.” While Stanford is questioning the value of its code, Johns Hopkins scrapped its honor system this fall in the face of charges that it had become a “farce” and a “disgrace.” New copyright law is proposed to Congress 490 Frontier Road RENTALS Wed., Oct. 15th at 8 pm The guest lecturer will be Rabbi Joseph Herzog of Temple Sinai, Amherst.

Last year, a substantially similar bill was passed in the Senate but the session ended before the House considered its own copyright legislation. Committee sources in the House predict that a new copyright bill will be voted on within the next year. Amorphous doctrine The new law, as proposed, would allow the free duplication of copyrighted material “for purposes such as criticism, comment, news amorphous reporting, teaching, scholarship, or research.” This doctrine” of “fair use,” as the Supreme Court called it last year in ruling on a copyright case, varies from case to case depending on such intangibles as “the nature and purpose” of the work, the amount copied and the financial effect of copying on the potential market for the material. Fair use does not include what the bill calls “systematic reproduction of copyrighted material. Library copying for inter-library loans and reserve copies would probably fall under this category of “systematic” reproduction. In testimony before the House Judiciary Subcommitee on Courts, Civil Liberties and the Administration of Justice this summer, educators claimed that this bill would be devastating to the teaching process. “Educational users need special protection over and above that provided commercial users,” Bernard J. Freitag, a National Education Association representative said. “They have a public responsibility for not for profit.” teaching. They work for people access to materials that would The benefits of suing reprints otherwise be too costly for most libraries and students to afford would be lost if the bill were approved, the educators argued. Providing resources from a wide range of journals and collections gives the student a broader view than if one textbook were assigned for each — — — class. Writers string gypped But writers and publishers have a different perspective. While cheap reproductions mean less money from student pocketbooks, they also mean less money in the author’s bank account. In many cases, this is a substantial financial loss for the writer. “(Librarians and educators) are asking writers to ignore their own economic difficulties and act like good socialists, spuming the profit motive and resigning themselves to a diminished income, while the rest of the country continues to act like a clutch of hard-nosed capitalists,” author Michael Mawshaw wrote in the Chronicle of Higher Education. “Does a society that feels it can casually reproduce and exploit an author’s work for free really respect the written word?” The repercussions of the proposed legislation are already being felt on college campuses. At Arizona State University (ASU), the head librarian, has refused to make more than one copy of an article for the reserve reading section citing the “fair use” doctrine. “Publishers are in a pretty surly mood,” librarian Donald Koepp said. Not half as surly as ASU students will be when only one copy is available for reading, however. “The frustration level of students trying to use this place is very high,” Koepp admitted. announces SUNY OVERSEAS ACADEMIC PROGRAM AT THE University of Alexandria, Arab Republic of Egypt 10 Fellowships available covering students expenses, including travel, food and lodging.

This proved to be an accurate prediction. Amin ousted President Milton Obote in January 1971 and seized complete control of the East African nation. “Big Daddy” Amin is indeed a big man in every sense of the word.

He received a meager education and at age 18 joined the Army to battle his way to the rank of Sergeant Major, fighting with the British against the Mau Mau insurgents in Kenya. By all accounts, he relished the fight against fellow Africans. Through hard work and the right connections, Amin eventually assumed the position of commander of Uganda’s army. Only a gunshot away from the presidency, he seized power in 1971. Central African Republic, an infamous character in his own right. Together they toured the jail, occasionally beating to death prisoners. Once in power, Amin wasted no time in asserting his authority and setting the tone of his regjgne by pursuing the followers of Obote. The most fortunate were shot. Some were crammed into tiny cells which were then dynamited, others were carved with knives or were suffocated with their own genitals. Subsequent purges of enemies, real or imagined, have claimed at least 20,000 lives, perhaps as many as 90,000. Amin won instant popularity with the masses by expelling 50,000 Asians who controlled ; commerce and a great deal of the country’s wealth. Amin justified the expulsion by stating that it was an act of God’s will.

They are cozy, secure environments, locked away amidst cities on the brink of disaster and countries struggling to stay alive. Though they are by no means without their faults, universities generally take good care of their people. Here at this University, for example, people can purchase books that no other bookstore carries, they can buy records and see concerts that no store or private promoter is willing to offer, they can see films and plays and performances that no theater is presenting, and they can choose alternative life styles that the status quo is Here an unmarried couple can openly live together without fear of social ostracism. Here health care is socialized if one pays the proper fees (or taxes), one is entitled to receive free, unlimited medical and dental care, birth control, and personal counselling. Here people are free to explore their potential and to discover themselves as individuals. It's no wonder so many people cling to this kind of ideal environment well beyond their four allotted years, either as "perpetual students" or professionals (faculty, staff and administrators). It's also not surprising that the most common trepidation one feels when one's time is up is whether he or she can readjust to "the real world." In Freudian terms, it may be called "separation anxiety," or leaving yet another manifestation of mother's womb. — universities, rather What this all boils down to than preparing students to cope with the hard realities of the outside world, are merely giving them a desireable, transient alternative. For the rewards of such an environment to be carried forth into "the real world," though, it would require a radical change in the social structure of this country. Some minds may wake up in college to the need for social reform, fighting for free day care, abortions, health services and working in cooperative ventures that benefit a larger cross-section of people. Unfortunately, most active minds eventually graduate and assimilate into the mainstream, their drive for serious change replaced by a hardened cynicism. It's a sad but familiar story the system has you beat before yOu can beat the system. =- — With any luck, maybe this generation of college students will begin to really learn their lessons at school and see that the positive forces one encounters at universities should be able to work on a larger scale for a greater number of people, Perhaps this sounds like an idealist's dream.

You can’t believe it; how is it done? Simple enough, by paying a disruptive “desertion bonus” to a poor man who knows that the family gets more without him than with him. "The subcommittee found,” a House committee under Martha Griffiths, reported last December, “that in July 1972, a man with a wife and two children who worked at $2 an hour could increase the income of his family by an average of $2,158 annually by deserting them.” Yes, since 1959, the proportion of families without a father has risen 50 percent. It now constitutes a majority of poor families with children. An accident? Not according to the evidence. The arrant neglect of the male-headed families, and the poor devil of a husband trying to support his children at low wages full time “appear to have created (their italics) “more female-headed families with children," If one thing cries for reform today in Washington it is the top-heavy income security-welfare system. It is a horrifying mess. Social security faces a funding crisis; it is stretched too thin; gives out mole than it is taking in. Tire $6 billion-a-year food stamp program with 19 million participants may have slowed down but. on the other hand, unpublished theoretical studies indicate that by next year 50 million Americans will be eligible, costing SIO billion in the Bicentennial year, if they all apply (which of course they won’t). There are already 62 separate aid programs and Congress keeps thinking up new gadgets for the crazy structure piecemeal, categorical goodies: housing allowance, transportation stamps for tlve elderly, clothing vouchers and fuel coupons for the poor anything but cash. You can’t give cash to poor people; they might know better what they need than the government. Lei them have food stamps and stand in line! Somebody said a camel looks like an animal shaped by a committee; the American security program is shaped by 21 committees of Congress, 50 state legislatures and 1500 county welfare departments. It started as a log cabin and turned into a skyscraper with the log cabin architecturally incorporated. It started 40 years ago, when Franklin Roosevelt signed the original Social Security Act. August 14, 1955, embracing Only two programs, old age insurance and unemployment insurance. America was far behind .other large industrial nations in welfare then apd it is today; we are practically the only one left without national health insurance (urged by Truman and defeated by the American Medical Association).

Then the mother is eligible for nontaxable. Here’s the typical extra benefits comment, of a caseworker in Georgia; “My first criticism is that we run the able-bodied fathers out of the home; they are underemployed, underpaid, and in order for the family to survive the father has to leave home. And now we are spending just about 50 percent of our time trying to find these fathers whom we have run out of their homes.’ 7 It’s funny in a cruel way. A workingman in Detroit must earn $73,50 gross to have the equivalent of the relief, food and average medical benefits available to his wife and three children on welfare. As bread winner he has to pay Social security taxes; on relief She doesn’t. She is tempted to get a job. But tests in New York, Chicago, Atlanta and Los Angeles show that if she has three children and works at median wage she earns less than she would on welfare. She pays $325 in social security taxes; about $125 in federal income taxes and close to $800 in work expenses (bus fare and somebody to look after the kids). She stays on relief. Should the system be abolished; Of course not! If there is one thing that has kept the lid on in America’s worst recession it is unemployment insurance, food stamps, aid to families with dependent children, and all the rest. But it is preposterous not to harmonize overlapping programs; they give poor value for money. The subject is a particular thorn for Republicans. Alf Landon called FDR’s plan a “cruel hoax;” a fraud on the working man.” He carried only two slates. President Ford, as he rambles about the country, telling us to take government out of government, is aware of the problem. He told an audience (Chicago, August 31) that “there has to be a total revamping of welfare programs.” Correct, splendid; and he is a compassionate man who twice voted in the House for Nixon’s still-born Family Assistance Program. But when he gets before a Republican audience (Dallas, Sept. 13) he says “social programs literally threaten our whole economy” and that he will use the veto “again and again and again." A black woman in St. Louis asked if he had any new social programs to help the poor? He replied (Sept. 12) that what would help more would be a healthy economy —■ (he tax base would expand and everyone would be better off. Sometimes he’s for reform; sometimes for business revival. Studies show that a lot of. people who need aid most aren’t getting it. Geographical inequalities defy rationality. Maximum AFCD payments for a family of four in 1974 were $60.a month in Mississippi; S4II in New York. Why is New York City broke? One reason is New York slate’s social payments: they attract migrants from all over the country. NYC is full of Puerto Ricans; no wonder, Puerto Rico pays S56 monthly in. AFDC, New York seven times as much. Perverse incentives cause mass migrations and disrupt families. What should be done? Sooner or later everybody In the country.;rich arid poor alike, will file income taxes, and those below the poverty line will get a moderate direct cash grant from the government related to income, white the low and moderate-income workers wilt get tax relief. Why not Cash on a uniform basis instead of food stamps and payments that drive The Spectrum .

To begin with, the author should have specified with what countries' of the Middle East she is dealing. Some countries in the area still apply religious laws (based on the Shari’a) to matters affecting the rights of women, while others have, in varying degrees, supplanted the Shari’a with civil and secujar laws. It is not dear whether the author is writing only about Egypt or whether she includes the wider area of the Middle East. It appears, however, that a major portion of the article deals with conditions in Egypt, while other countries are treated peripherally. It is worthwile to mention the revolutionary changes brought about in many aspects of life in South Yemen and Dhofar, changes I wish to comment , VALLEY PAYS which can serve as models for those who seek a transformation in basic socio-economic relationships. The West has long been fascinated with polygamy and indeed regards it as an exotic characteristic of Muslim societies. The occurrence of polygamy among Muslims in the Middle bast and elsewhere has been historically very negligible. It has been limited almost exclusively to the small stratum of traditional landlords and merchants, persons who were financially secure enough to marry more than one woman. The majority of Muslims, who are poor peasants or who live in the eities as workers, simply cannot afford to engage in such a financially taxing practice. The same with the veil, another “exotic” Middle Eastern curiosity. The veil has been predominantly worn by urban women (historically from the upper classes), while the vast majority of peasant women who work in agriculture have not had to succumb to this form of imprisonment. Lisa Taraki Clearing up some doubts To the Editor. As a graduate student in the Department of Speech Communication, I wish to offer some replies to your article and editorial of October 8th. 1. There are three reasons why the faculty opposing Dr. Molef Asante appear reticent to discuss the issues: a) Many of the objections to Dr. Asante have previously been referred to grievance committees. The content of such grievances are confidential and could not be publicly aired. b) For ethical reasons, most faculty opposing Dr. Asante refused to permit classroom time to be used for the propagandizing of students. c) Most of the faculty opposing Dr. Asante believed it to be unprofessional to solicit, coerce, or interfere with student opinion. 2. The charge of racism is false! Two years ago, Asante was unanimously approved by the faculty Dr. to be their chairman. His blackness and youth were not issues then nor are they now. 3. The openness of the department is not of Dr. Asante’s origin. Long before Dr. Asante became chairman, students conferred with the chairperson appointment. In fact, of the past four chairpersons, Dr, Asante is neither the most nor the without least accessible. 4 Most graduate students, both black and White, are serious, intelligent scholars. To suggest that some students do not fit the above description can hardly be called racism. There are non-serious black students just as there are non-serious white students. 5. The main issue between dissenting faculty and Dr. Asante appears to one of management style. Dr. Asante has described himself as ' decisive.” Some faculty perceive this decisiveness as Jailing to provide into department input for adequate faculty policy-making. It is the fervent hope of faculty and students of the department to get back to work and studies without the interference of department politics. A Graduate Student Save NYC.

If Mr. Rubin continues to air his personal Views via the guise of a sports column, or purposely exacerbates hostilities Tor the satisfaction of his Own weird desires, then the money I am paying for a studeht newspaper will be wasted. Mr. Rubin wilt undoubtedly achieve some strange kind of satisfaction with each nasty rebuttal to his column. 1 implore any insulted Buffalonian to direct their reprisals to David J. Rubin, not to New Yorkers in general. Better yet, perhaps ignoring him will coerce him to shut his trap and concentrate on sports. Any first-year psychology student knows that reinforcement breeds further aggravation. Stick to sports, Mr. Rubin. If not, then change the column’s title to Rubin’s bull, or even a more precise description of the drivel. Marc Sherman - Golda Meir syndrome To the Editor Conspicuously absent in Fredda Cohen s article on the status of women in the geographic area of the Middle East (The Spectrum, Oct. 8, 1975) is any mention of the status of women in Israel. This might leave the misleading impression that women in Israel fare incomparably better than women in other countries in the Middle East, and possibly even in might the West, thereby heping perpetuate what properly be called the “Golda Meir Syndrome.” The facts of the lives of women in Israel however, tell a different story. Consider the following sample Only 30 percent of the women in Israel work or hold jobs outside the house (42 percent in the U S ). Figures also show that women, on average, • earn 42 percent less than men. Even those women who do the same type of work earn, on average 75% of what men earn doing the same kind of work. Moreover, women are taxed more heavily on their income for the apparent reason that their earnings are considered additional “pocket money, whereas the man’s income is considered an essential need. During the past twenty-five years and since the establishment of the state of Israel, only two women assumed positions in the Cabinet (Golda Meir and Shulamit Aloni), hardly an enviable record even if compared with neighboring countries (two in Iraq, 1959, 1970; two in Egypt, 1960, 1970). Similarly, women in the Knesset number less than 10 percent with none at all in the most important committees (Finance, Foreign Affairs and Security), Of the total number of university teachers in Israel only 2 percent are women. Religious laws govern marital and family affairs. Women for instance, are not allowed to testify before a religious court and cannot get a divorce without the agreement of the husband. In order to remarry, a widow that has no children is obliged to secure the consent and agreement of her-: unmarried brother-indaw. Abortion, moreover, has been declared illegal by religious courts except under' -v. unusual and exceptional circumstances. In 1972, after (interviewing hundreds of', women in Tel-Aviv and Jerusalem, sociologists fron*y the Hebrew University reported that two-thirds of the subjects favored large families, while fully 75percent thought that being “a good ihother and a good homemaker” was woman’s most noble goal. Moreover, Kibutzim have recently started their own beauty contests; More can be said, but suffice it to quote last, but not least important, the view of Mrs. Meir herself who apparently feels that “woman’s lib is just a lot of foolishness" (Newsweek Oct. 23, 1972). If Mrs, Meir’s view is to be taken as a guide, then surely the prospects for women in Israel must seem not much different from those of women in other countries in the Middle East. * * * • , George Al-Muhtajj Wednesday, 15 October 1975 The Spectrum .

The survey was conducted by a Chicago-based advertising firm last spring. The survey found that 87 percent of the students polled had read their college newspaper — within the last week. Playboy was the favorite monthly followed by Reader's Digest and magazine, the National Lampoon. The survey also delved into the drinking habits of college students and found that drinking is still a very popular preoccupation of students. Of the students polled, 48 percent had purchased beer in the last month, 29 percent wine and 25 percent 57 some type of hard liquor. More than half percent said they had purchased some type of alcoholic beverage in a bar or restaurant within the same month. — — We will fight them on the airways (CPS) Television, often referred to as a “vast wasteland,” is a vast battleground on Saturday ... - mornings, according to data from the Media Action Research Center. The Center reported recently that Bugs Bunny and the Pink Panther are the leading Saturday morning heavies. Those shows average at least one violent act every minute, the report said. The average for Saturday morning shows was one violent act every three and a half minutes. Celestial circumstance and the end of the world (CPS/ZNS) As if worrying about ozone depletion isn’t enough, a survey of leading scientists by Science Digest magazine turned up 13 different predictions of how the world will end. Most scientists theorize that earth will be a victim of celestial circumstance rather than human blundering. For the “red sun theory” holds - that the sun will cool, turn a reddish hue and begin to expand. Earth, they predict, will be consumed in the flames. Other scientists postulate a cosmic crash between earth and speeding asteroids. The asteroid Icarus came within four million miles of earth in 1968 at a speed of 66,000 miles per hour. Many scientists feel a collision is inevitable. The “black hole theory” proposed by some scientists predicts that giant, dense but invisible concentrations of matter may be speeding toward us. A black hole can suck up other matter and would crush the planet down to the size of a basketball if they collide. Other predictions for the demise of the planet included nuclear weapons and “monster microbes” that could escape from biological laboratories and attack life on earth. Blacks earn less less (CPS) Blacks and women still bring home less on payday than their white male counterparts, but the gap is narrowing, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. White workers earn $190 a week on the average, compared to $156 a week for blacks. Women earn 61 percent of the male wage, according to the Bureau, bringing home an average weekly earning of $137 compared to $221 for men. While women still earn the same percentage of the male wage they earned in 1967, blacks are now paid around 80 percent of the wage paid to whites. In 1967, blacks were paid 69 percent of the white wage, the Bureau said. — The tingle’s only temporary (CPS/ZNS) A reversible birth control device for men has reportedly been developed by medical researchers at the University of Missouri.

While recognizing excellent skills in these areas, the Bulgarians differ on the question of content. In their School of Management, students take courses in dialectical materialism, scientific communism, the history of Philosophy, the history of the Bulgarian Communist Party, and the history of socialist ethics. before they begin the technical aspect of their schooling.

Rubin Sports wouldn’t try to turn on the four-way Hashers by pressing in the cigarette lighter. Everything went well, and I was assured that the car would be in top working order for the race. Next, switch the scene to the Kendall Tech Center at Watkins Glen. My technological sources told me that 55 miles per hour would be the optimum mileage speed; They told me to shift fast and early, glide when possible, and keep the windows closed. The tension grew as the cars left the Tech Center and moved out onto the track where the Volkswagen people connected up the 32-ounce gas canisters. Meanwhile, TV_ personality Chris Economaki interviewed each driver, and it became apparent that I was the green one in the field an obvious underdog. h'Jildfa Mail Magazine occasionally runs a piece the titles of imaginary “very thin books." The titles usually include selections like Compliments I Have Made by Don Rickies or Hints to Make Marriage Successful by John Mitchell. Well, back on October 4, the story for a new thin book was created at Watkins The Racing Glen, New York. Its name Career of David J. Rubin. Actually this story starts with the beginning of the fall semester when I was invited to participate in “The 32 Ounces of Watkins Glen,” a race sponsored by the Volkswagen people to show the world how many miles to the gallon their cars can get when the average person drives them. The idea of the “race,” or “slow” as a friend of mine put it, is to drive a factory built Volkswagen Rabbit around the Watkins Glen race track as far as you can with only 32 ounces of gas in your tank. on - - Chicane-ry Firstly, he introduced me as the only college newspaper writer. (Damn those investigative reporters.) Then he threw a real curve by asking how I was going to handle the new chicane. Stymied, my only reply was, alas, an honest one, “I don’t even know what a chicane is." (A chicane is a sharp, quick S-curve.) Hurt but not demoralized. 1 stood ready on the far side of the track, and then broke for my car on cue in the LeMans style start.

The Bulls did not lose a set to either Buffalo State or Canisius en route to an easy win. Niagara never showed up, but in past performances, the team was shut out by Buffalo during the regular season. Thus the Bulls ended an 8-2 season with a performance so overwhelming that they were only in danger of losing one set out of the 18 they played. Buffalo’s A1 Boardman was trailing Canisius’ Ray Witzleben 6-2 in the eight-game pro set, but then rallied to win the next six games for the win. “That’s what you call a tantalizer,” said Boardman who earlier in the year had shut out Witzleben over two sets.

He’s much more confident in his strokes.” The match also concluded the collegiate career of Rich Abbott, Buffalo’s second singles player and team captain. Abbott was the Bulls’ 'top player last year and early this year, until he was beaten out by his doubles partner. Randy Murphy. Abbott’s career ends At the end of their last match together, Murphy left the court so that Abbott could win the final point by himself. Although Griffins Rich Infanti and Bob Cleary probably weren’t trying too hard, Abbott won the point with a well-placed forehand volley. After the match, all Abbott could say was, “1 was really misty,” referring to the tears in his eyes. Murphy however had words of praise for his partner, noting, “he made a good contribution as far as a leader. He pulled out the clutch matches.” Although McClain now will have to find a new partner for Murphy, he has a lot of talented players to choose from. "We did better this year than any (tennis) team ever at this school. We lost two matches because we didn’t have all of our players,” he said, referring to losses earlier this week to Brockport and Rochester. “If we did have everyone, we would have won them all convincingly.” 1 ! i Ha HAiStcr DorvuJL 3234 MAIN ST.

Page thirteen �Commentary Arrogant athletes a growing phenomena in sports world by Christopher Van Vliet Spectrum Staff Writer A professional athlete must possess a superior ability to survive among his colleagues. If he is to succeed, he must possess a proper attitude as well. Those who excel in both departments have the greatest likelihood of reaching the status of champion. Ability speaks for itself in an athlete, while attitude is more difficult to pinpoint. Die-hards of the old school of thought believe that there are cetain personality traits such as maturity, drive, self-sacrifice and the willingness to cooperate, which are central to an athlete’s development. The athlete of today is an independent breed, but his impressive quality is overshadowed by his and unnecessary arrogance self-indulgence. Professional teams in every sport are composed of individuals, and it is the manager’s or coach’s job to deal with these individuals and mold them into a winning unit. There is, however, just so far a manager can bend without foresaking the welfare of his team and going against the principles of fair play. No place for arrogance Recently Arthur Ashe, a model of the old defeated the young, brash, and heavily favored tennis sensation Jimmy Connors at Wimbledon, England. When later asked to comment on his opponent to reporters, Ashe said he simply couldn’t understand why someone like Connors would pride himself on being arrogant and flippant, when he could just as easily be cooperative and school, humble. Connors has all the tools to be a tennis legend in his own time, but it appears that unless he grows up, he will still be lacking the respect of his adversaries and spectators, and consequently his rightful recognition from the sporting world. This is even truer in the case of tennis’ hot-tempered Hie Nastase. Nastase has time and time again walked off the court during matches in which he has disagreed with a call made by the line judges, showing absolutely no regard for the fans and for his obligation to participate in a sportsmanlike fashion. Granted, the present day athlete should not be expected to display the “All-American boy” image and live the life of a patron saint. He may support different causes, grow his hair long, .wear outlandish clothes, do commercials, and hang out in bawdy nightspots. But when it comes down to competition, there are certain rules and responsibilities which cannot be waived. Today it is “chic” to be different, even to the point of insubordination, and most people pass this off as a sign of the times. Ability just a start However, anyone with a real knowledge of sports knows what ingredients are necessary to maintain a winning edge, and will tell you that raw talent alone never makes it. Athletes such as Duane Thomas and Richie Allen, both of whom are blessed with outstanding abilities, find it impossible to get along with their respective coaches and managers, and neither has lived up to his capabilities. Dock Fllis, Alex Johnson and Joe Pepitone are other contemporary professional athletes who have demonstrated a need to be pampered and treated in a manner unlike their teammates. This rebellion against authority has even permeated the college ranks, as was evidenced locally by the suspension and eventual reinstatement of Canisius basketball star Larry Fogle. Baseball mentor Leo Durocher, in his book, Nice Guys Finish l.ast, best $ums up the pathetic situation which exists today. Leo says bluntly, “The battle cry of today’s player is ‘I don’t have to’,” and his favorite slogan is, “I’ll do it my way.” He further explains that, “the prevailing attitude is that they’ve got everything coming to them, not by accomplishment but because they're alive.” Durocher cites Houston Astros centerfielder Cesar Cedeno as a perfect example of the uncoacheable “head case.” Cedeno. according to Durocher, has as much potential as Willie Mays had when he was breaking in, but that’s about as far as (he comparison goes. Athletes today are bigger, stronger and faster than their early day counterparts, and the true champions still play with just as much desire, but it has become obvious that a cancer is spreading throughout the sporting world and threatening to topple it at its foundation. I.R.C. Positions —Forrest Once again, soccer star Emmanuel Kulu has beet) named Athlete of the Week. Kulu's free kick-goal and his two outstanding assists to Jeff Reed, helped the Bulls defeat Niagara on Wednesday and clinch the Big Four Soccer Championship. A sophomore, Kulu is quickly closing in on the school records for points and goals, both in a season and in a career. Honorable mention this week goes to tennis player Lenny Gross, who won all five of his singles matches this week, while dropping two in doubles.

Stone Governments, dinosaurs, social cannibalism, and a‘head like Ford’ * by Rick Vazquez Staff Writer Spectrum I.F. Stone refuses to become obsolete. “Spitting in the eye of the government is a wonderful sport,” Stone told Wednesday night’s receptive Fillmore Room audience. After a journalistic career that spans 50 years, being blacklisted during the notorious communist “witch-hunts” of the McCarthy era and doing the impossible by publishing I.F. Stone’s Weekly, the one man mini-newspaper, for 16 years, Isidor Feinetein Stone at 65 still appears to have a few aces up his sleeve. The government, said Stone in his opening remarks, is similar to the dinosaur, “a great power with a little brain; a body like the Pentagon, and a head like Ford.” Izzy Stone believes the world’s problems have extended beyond the reach of any individual nation. “No country is big enough to prevent worldwide pollution or to decide how many will starve,” Stone observed in what he called a plea for a new world order and the revival of socialist thinking ih America. Stone claims that the governments of the world are trapped by their own obsolescence, that global red tape and nationalism are causing our “obsolescence as a species.” ‘Fact of Hunger’ Stating that the food crisis is a “Fact of Hunger” Stone said the U.S. should attempt to reach maximum output in food production. Likewise, he criticized world food distribution policy by denouncing U.S. wheat sale; to Russia. Envisioning the need for a new.world order, S characterized man’s interaction as “cannabalistic.” . “We are addicted to eating each other. To deal w the world’s problems, we must develop a sense of world community,” said Stone. Stone pointed to the atrocities of the World War II exterminations as an example of the depths to which hatred has revealed itself as the great destroyer. “If we can not view ourselves as one family on one planet, then we must realize that the (wartime atrocities] can happen again,” explained Stone. Regarding socialism, the political policy with which Stone has always been associated and which caused his blacklisting in the fifties, Stone feels a socialist government could have emerged in this century had it not been for America’s great successes in the two world wars. Resources to waste “The key to this nation’s success with capitalism is in our resources. We could afford to waste. Mountains were destroyed to build cars. Not only this but we grew because between the lines, not only in congressional memos but in people. His observations on some figures differ sutstantially from the opinions of most. For example, Stone views Russian novelist Alexander Solzhenitsyn as a potential tyrant. Power politics “Solzhenitsyn is a ‘reverse socialist.’ His style of government would be worse than any of our bureaucracy,” he said. Stone also called most of the Third World’s leaders “megalomaniacs” and “pipsqueaks” and expressed the conviction that the dream of a united Black Africa is dead. When a question was posed concerning the Middle East situation, the I.F. Stone who despises nationalism and power politics emerged. “There is no future for Israel without reconciliation with the Arabs,” he said. Stone feels that Israel is foolish not to recognize the Palestinians as a nation. Stone also finds the Zionist and militarist factions dangerous. “I deplore the reactionary trend in the Jewish community,” stated Stone, himself a Jew. “Shall we desert Isaiah for Hobbes?” On the threat of a nuclear holocause in the Mid-East, Stone said, “The dimensions for destruction in the Mid-East are vast!” Pounding his hands on the speaker’s podium, he said, “Israel can’t duck the issue of the Palestinian Arab. Justice in the Mid-East is the Palestinian Arab.” (hie assassin Stone expressed little interest in the topic of CIA plots for assassinating John F. Kennedy and he accepts the findings of the Warren Commission. “1 have no taste for the JFK assassination. It seems to have become a favorite indoor sport,” he said. Stone has no illusions about our nation’s politicians. Describing Senator Henry Jackson (D., Wash.) as a “fake progressive,” Stone said he “wouldn’t trust any man who was Nixon’s favorite Democrat.” Stone also said, “Nixon may have been the biggest subversive in U.S. history.” And President Ford is the most inane man ever to hold that office. “The man is a nit-wit, and everyone knows it! Ford shouldn’t be out shaking hands. He should take off his shoes and read the papers so he’ll know what’s going on,” Stone said. “We tend to deify our Presidents and it turns them into demigods,” he said, citing the case of Harry Truman. “Truman was a nice, humble guy. Once he was in office for a while he became conceited.” I.F. Stone is a fighter that’s how he survived blacklisting and that’s how he put together a one man newsweekly. Now, although he’s put I.F. Stone's Weekly to, “bed” for good (1 had to stop. 1 started to feel like I was going to drop dead on the way to the printer.), he hasn’t stopped working. Stone is currently a student in the Greek Studies Department of American University in Washington, D.C. “I’m studying Plato and Aristotle, particularly in the areas of freedom of thought and expression,” Stone said, smiling through his thick wire-rimmed bifocals. “And I hope to teach when I’ve learned enough.” ... — of the two world wars, we gained from the destruction as well as the reconstruction from both wars,” Stone added. l.F. Stone is of the opinion that free enterprise does not exist. “When I saw auto and steel prices go up this year despite this nation’s economic problems, I said to myself, ‘Adam Smith is dead’.” “Free enterprise has become the national religion, a cloak for big business” said Stone, adding that the bureaucratic elite present in the western nations are also present in the communist countries. l.F.

It may also destroy the circulation of these magazines, he said. Although members of the Buffalo branch of the American Civil Liberties Union have expressed doubts about the bill’s constitutionality, members of the Common Council insist on its legitimacy. “The legislative branch can pass anything it wants to pass, and the bill is constitutional; obscenity is not protected by the first amendment right of free speech,” Lewandowski declared. The bill has been seen as part of a larger crackdown on pornography in Erie County. Local courts have been filled with obscenity cases over the last several months and several theaters, like the Allendale, have been forced to shut because of huge fines and confiscation of their film projectors Section 3 of the bill states; “No person, within the city of Buffalo, who knowing its content and character, shall wholesale promote or possess with intent to wholesale promote any obscene material.” Although a great deal depends upon interpretation, this has been taken by some to mean that there will be no advertising of anything considered obscene. Many political observers point to the upcoming election as a reason for passing the ordinance now. A number of councilmen have been subjected lately to a great deal of pressure from local lobbying groups, the most notable of which is Morality in Media, which has been pressuring for years to get such an ordinance passed. �Fac-Sen approves sanctions officer. concludes that a particular proposed may not in accordance with the he shall refer such proposed allocation provisions to a campus review board, composed of eight members, of whom four shall be appointed by the student representative organization and four appointed by the chief administrative officer.” He added that such a review board is already a part of the SUNY Board of Trustees guidelines governing the allocation of mandatory fee money. Supplementary recommendations to the Greiner report, added by SA President Michele Smith, were also approved. These included: informing all students entering the University of the Rules of Order on Campus; ensuring that warning statements are read to students violating the Rules; and revising the letter informing students charged with a violation of their rights and appeal procedures. After the students suspended as a result of the Hayes Hall demonstration were notified of the University’s sanctions against them, charges were made by SA and the Legal Aid Clinic that the letters sent to them only vaguely explained their right to appeal. Because of this, Smith charged, several of the students almost forfeited their right to request a show-cause hearing before the time period allowed by Laura Bartlett .. allocation Campui Editor ... The Faculty Senate voted unanimously Tuesday .to accept a resolution that the University should impose “appropriate sanctions” on all students found guilty of “unlawful” or “disruptive” conduct.

According Stanley to Panowicz, CSEA Shop Steward for the Norton Hall employees, if the commitment is not met within sixty-day period ending a December 1, a severe job action will take place. William Strobel, CSEA Vice President in charge of Grievance, said sentiment on this campus was so heavily in favor of this project that even if the money was unavailable from Albany, the administration would proceed with the project, if necessary, obtaining the funds from some other source. This was confirmed by Ray Reinig, Facilities Program Coordinator for Physical Planning. Reinig said the contracts and the purchase orders were cleared as of October 1 and that the vendor promised the heating equipment will arrive from the factory by the end of October. The units and installation will cost about $4600. me project was recommended by the Office of General Services in Albany and calls for additional gas heaters at both the front and rear first floor entrances to Norton Hall. the equipment will be installed by contractors, with only minimal from Norton Hall help maintenance. The one problem in installing the units is that entrances to Norton Hall will have to be blocked and the flow of student traffic reduced to complete the project on time. The bulk of the work will have to be done during normal business hours, Robert Henderson, Associate Director of Norton Hall, reported. IRCB will expand its campus service by Carrie Valiant Staff Writer Spectrum IRCB, Inc., the business arm of the Inter-Residence Council, is in the process of expanding its services, according to Brad Koshar, Director of Operations, and Leigh Weber, Auxiliary Services Manager. Slated for improvement are both the IRCB Store division and the Auxiliary Services division. “The main emphasis of IRCB stores is now directed toward accommodating student needs,” explained Koshar. Although operating under a newly-developed system designed to standardize all products sold, the stores are flexible enough to meet the demands of students in each living area, Koshar claimed. To provide a basis for improvement, IRCB will soon distribute questionnaires to all dorm students in addition to a suggestion sheet already posted in each store. “Anything seriously proposed will be seriously considered,” Koshar stated. Better e-La\ ty Aid for aspiring law students The newly formed Pre-Law Society held its first meeting this past Monday. The Society’s initiators, Scott Salimando and Richard Cohen, hope to make the organization into a forum for student’s questions concerning law school admissions and other relevant matters. The process of applying to law school and preparing for the Law School Aptitude Tests (LSAT) is often a source of unmitigated grief for bewildered students. Salimando indicated that the Society will try to ease this situation and possibly import “a sense of identity” to the amorphous and transient mass of law school aspirants at this school. LSAT familiariazation is one service that the Society may offer. Costs of $85 to $250 for LSAT preparation courses of “dubious” value could be avoided by many students if this service is initiated, Salimando said. Planned activities The members of the organization will determine the Society’s emphasis and direction. A steering committee, with each class level represented, will administer the organization’s activities. The Society plans to schedule speakers from the Alumni Association and both faculty and students from various law schools in a “make your own sundae” sale, and a “Natural Food Weekend” featuring cereals and yogurt. Sales will also be held on high demand items on the “loss leader” concept, that is below cost. Koshar explained that the stores can provide quality goods at low prices because of a reserve cash flow that allows IRCB to buy in large quanitities. Koshar claimed that most items are sold at a few cents sale, "travel Service used to concentrate on only a few flight seats at the discretion of IRCB,” Weber said. Flights presently are booked for all major holidays, including Veterans Day, Washington’s Birthday, Christmas Recess, Easter-Passover Weekend, and the end of the spring semester. The realization that flight service benefits only students residing in the New York Metropolitan area produced a newly-created bus service. Presently, separate buses to Rochester, Syracuse and Albany have been chartered. These buses will not drop students at the usual downtown terminals, but rather at suburban shopping centers. Bus service is also being offered to New York City with drop oil points at Penn Station and Roosevelt Field. Weber said his goal for bus service is “at least to be the same as Greyhound, at best to be cheaper.” Next semester, 1RCB plans to continue and improve existing programs. Possible future plans include a discount service for Amtrak and a reserved flight every weekend of the school year. Definitely planned for the spring semester is a “Centralized Ride System.” According to Weber, this will provide a conveniently located up-to-date catalogue of all rides offered and wanted, thereby the need for each student to post signs. Koshar concluded that his goal is to “provide an open torum and an expanded service program to meet the wide and diversified needs of all students.” 1RCB would like to know about any ideas for major can services.

Page three < �Commentary Western world shocked by Franco’s brutal reprisals by Brett Kline Feature Editor September 27th, On Generalissimo Franco of Spain shocked Western civilization by ordering the executions of five terrorists, convicted of killing Spanish policemen. Two of the five were members of the E.T.A., an organization originating from in Basque country the northwestern Spain, and the other three the belonged to Revolutionary Front for Patriotic Action, an urban guerilla group dedicated to Marxism. European leaders had repeatedly demanded that Franco call off the executions, demands that included a personal plea from the Pope in Rome. All were repulsed by the idea of the death penalty, which has been outlawed in almost all European countries. Franco’s only response to these pleas was to substitute a firing squad in place of the regularly used garrote, the iron collar that strangles a man or snaps his spine where it joins the base of the neck. Violent opposition Angry response to the executions came quickly both in Spain and internationally. Over 100,000 workers immediately went on strike in the Basque provinces of Vizcaya, Guipuzcoa, Alava and Navarra, and the following day a demonstration resulted in confrontation with police, who opened fire on the crowd, wounding six people. Many people took to tne streets in European cities, violently attacking Spanish buildings. government The the in Embassy Spanish Netherlands was destroyed by fire, bombs exploded outside the Embassy in Ankara, Spanish Turkey, the Spanish Embassy in Lisbon, Portugal was burned to the ground as national police looked on, and in Paris, more than 50 people were arrested and 30 were injured in clashes with police on the Champs-Elysees. being conducted with other Mediterranean countries such as Israel, Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco.

Other U.S. priorities The United States has publicly offered no criticism of the executions in Spain other than to that say President Ford “regretted” the “cycle of violence” that produced the murder of Spanish policemen and the executions of the Basques. of However, utmost importance to the American government at the present time is the accord signed with Spain on October 4 th, providing for the continued use by American air and naval forces of Spanish bases. Under the accord, Spain will receive military aid ranging from $500 million to $750 million for the life of the agreement, if Congress votes its approval. of State Henry Secretary Kissinger has made it clear that whatever the United States might think about the Franco regime’s actions, maintaining access to the Spanish bases is a high priority matter for the United States, and in his view, the Western alliance. Political reform and economic progress have become dim prospects in Spain. The “cycle of violence” has become a repeated cycle; as the Franco regime intensifies its efforts to end terrorism, provincial radicals such as the Basque E.T.A. and urban guerillas continue to demonstrate violent resistance to all government measures. There is no end in sight to the violence. HIS CIA CODE NAME IS CONDOR SEVENTY-TWO HOURS ALMOST EVERYONE HE TRUSTS WILL TRY TO KILL HIM.

Its purpose is to “eliminate (with certain exceptions) discrimination on the basis of sex in any education program or activity that is offered by a state-supported institution.” Title IX originated as a result of a 1972 anti-sex discrimination act which contained guidelines stating that the law was not to be used to weaken or undermine any existing programs. The act was designed to end discrimination against women in educational areas such as Health Education and sports. On July 21, 1975 Title IX appeared in a new set of HEW guidelines. At that time the University administration here consulted its attorneys on whether the Women’s Studies College (WSC) policy of excluding males from some classes violated Title IX. The legal office did not believe the College’s exclusionary policy complied with the regulation. Acting upon this advice, President Robert Ketter’s office called upon the College to change its policy. Executive Vice-President Albert Somit then demanded that the College comply with the regulation’s “remedial action” clause and prepare to incorporate men in all of the College’s classes and programs. Title IX’s remedial action clause refers to “the Director’s” (administration) power to do whatever is deemed necessary to overcome discrimination on the basis of sex. Another section requires that a recipient whose program requires remedial action file a statement of assurance to comply with the regulation when applying for financial assistance. The requirements also empower the director to enforce these according to the assurances. Therefore, administration’s interpretation, it is justified in demanding compliance with Title IX. WSC objects to both the administration’s interpretation of Title IX, and the method and timing of its demand to meet the requirements. In an official WSC statement, the College claimed that the administration’s “ultimatum” allowed neither time nor opportunity for any dialogue. College members assert that it is clearly a political issue, especially in view of the highly “selective” nature of the administration’s interpretation. The College claims that there is no evidence that other programs have been similarly screened or other violations exposed. They also point out that Title IX provides for hearings and appeals in the event of an alleged violation. The College is trying to defend its policy by citing the “affirmative action” clause of Title IX. This section states that if existing conditions are not the result of a set, discriminatory policy, then the situation should not be considered a direct violation. But the WSC situation is indefensable on these grounds, the College admits. WSC views male participation in certain courses as inappropriate, since the purposes of activities such as consciousness-raising would be defeated under those circumstances Assistant Professor of Law Grace Blumberg, who is advising WSC, remarked that the administration is being unnecessarily “heavy-handed” with this issue, Blumberg claims the administration is cloaking its political and philosophical objections with the College behind Title IX. The University’s budget crunch this year is also significant, she feels. “It is the administration and not HEW that is challenging WSC,” Blumberg said, adding that “the administration has been less than sympathetic or even patient with their demands and it leads one to think that WSC threatens them is some way.” Assistance for pet owners BARC aim by Carol Weber Staff Writer Spectrum The Buffalo Animal Rights Committee (BARC), a project of the Community Action Corps (CAC), assists those who lost, found, or want animals. BARC’s purpose is to provide information to individuals with questions on animals or pets, and to refer them to agencies who can supply further help. BARC is currently preparing a booklet on the care of pets, which will include sections on spaying and neutering, health care, and the licensing of pets. The Committee is also concentrating on establishing a file for those in the University community who either want a pet, or know of pets needing homes. Forms describing an animal, its state of health, the area found or lost and other pertinent information will be compiled by BARC and requests will hopefully be matched. Unwanted, deserted BARC project is the establishment of a low-cost or free spaying and neutering service for Ene County residents. The taxpayers of Erie County spend over $400,000 alone a year on the care, collection and killing of unwanted dogs. Each year the cost increases with the growth of the animal population. Over half of the animals at pounds have been brought there by their owners. Less than 10 percent of the dogs turned into these shelters leave alive, and out of the 20 million unwanted cats born each year, only 7 percent are put in homes. Legislation for a low-cost or free spaying and neutering service has been proposed by Buffalo legislator Robin Schimminger. The proposal also requires the licensing of local animal shelters and pet stores. One project completed by the Committee is a survey of veterinary hospitals in the surrounding area which includes information on emergency care, suggested low-cost spaying and neutering services and veterinary specialties. Petitions BARC is also circulating petitions demanding an end to the bounty heads of wolves in Alaska, organizing a moratorium on the slaughtering of whales by Japan and the Soviet Union, and supporting a ban on certain agricultural poisons used by the United States which prove fatal to many animals. BARC hopes to acquire speakers from the Buffalo Zoo and the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. The Committee also hopes to show films on the slaughtering of animals, including seals, which will be obtained through the “Friends of on If you are finding difficulty meeting financial costs for proposed projects under your present budgets you are - entitled to submit revised or altered Animals” organization. A BARC table will be set up in the lobby of Norton this week with file forms, petitions, parpphlets and information available.

The Victorians boasted of their "high" standards of public decency. But history bears out that at the uppermost levels of British and American society during this period, sex was rampant from back alleys to dimly-lit flats, upstairs, downstairs, from Bond Street to Beacon Hill. The Common Council's anti-obscenity bill falls well within this repressive tradition. Unfortunately, there is some degree of truth in Councilman Raymond Lewandowski's association that "obscenity is not protected by the First Amendment right of free speech." Nevertheless, the Supreme Court has always insisted that any legislation designed to censor or restrain the sale or publication of "obscene" material be narrowly-defined and specifically directed. It was likewise maintained that books, magazines, films, etc. are "presumptively protected" by the Constitution until they are formally challenged in a court of — law. The new anti-obscenity bill violates these and other judicial safeguards of our most basic civil liberties. The ACLU and many of Buffalo's most prominent attorneys agree that it is too vague and does not "narrowly-define" the standards of obscenity. The bill is unconstitutional, according to legal precedents, it prohibits the exhibition of nudes in establishments which may be frequented by minors. In Erznoznik v. Jacksonville, the United States Supreme Court struck down a Florida city ordinance which contained the same prohibition. because It is unconstitutional because it violated the legal doctrine of "Pre-emption," which makes any city ordinance illegal that conflicts with the terms of a higher, state ordinance. The Common Council's bill, on at least two instances, makes certain activities illegal which the state obscenity laws do nqt. Legal scholars agree that in general, the Supreme Court takes a dim view of any legislation which infringes on freedom of expression. And despite the Court's admission that in "exceptional cases" the Constitutional protections are limited, "the State has a heavy burden to demonstrate that the limitations challenged present such as exceptional case," according to former Chief Justice Earl Warren. The anti-obscenity bill provides no such exceptional Editor's Note: Today's Editorial was written by Campus Editor Howard Greenblatt for The Spectrum.

Kahn larger President, Graduate Student Employees Union In a recent Guest Opinion (Oct. 3rd), a graduate assistant (hereafter “the writer''’) made some erroneous claims concerning the wages and working conditions of assistants, the major issues of the union, the effects of a union on undergraduates and negotiable items. These can be easily refuted by the facts. These facts were obtained from the Office of Employee Relations of New York (OER), the payroll list at this University, the lists of instructors and students for undergraduate classes, and information that we have received from department chairpersons. (Unfortunately the Reader's Digest has no relevant information in these areas.) More serious are the innuendos attempting to connect graduate student unions, including the Graduate Student Employees murders, (GSEU), with bombings, Union coercion, and harassment. 1 shall deal with these at the end of this editorial. First there is the erroneous claim that graduate students earn $10—$12.50 per hour on their assistantships. If assistants worked a 40 hour week for the entire year they would be making $20,000-$25,000 per year. According to the OER, assistants earn $2889 for a 42 week pay period. They also work close to a 20 hour week. This puts the actual hourly wage at $3.30 per hour or $6,860 per year if they worked a 40 hour week. This is about 64 percent of the wage rate paid to junior faculty (ABD) for the same duties! This is hardly an equitable situation and certainly shows that we don’t earn more than the professors. Furthermore, 1 think that 1 speak for most assistants when I say that, contrary to the writer’s beliefs, the quality of the assistants’ work is high. We only ask for a salary that is commensurate with the work performed. Of course, in the writer’s case, the salary is not commensurate with the work and that means either undergraduates suffer (if the writer is a Teaching Assistant) or research output suffers (if a Graduate Assistant). The ESEU does not approve of this kind of action (or lack of action) which in turn hurts students at this University. Next is the question of major issues that the GSEU is fighting for. Certainly the writer is correct when stating that wages is a major issue but telephones as the “second big issue”? That is to According ridiculous! our faculty representatives and stewards, health insurance and workmen’s compensation seem to be the major issues along with wages and job security. For example, at Wisconsin the state pays 80 percent of the Assistants’ health insurance. Assistants are automatically covered by workmen’s compensation and they also have sick leave. At this University, assistants can’t even buy into a decent group health insurance plan. When an assistant gets hurt in a lab (some have been seriously hurt already), he/she has a great deal of trouble collecting from workmen’s compensation and the student health plan doesn’t cover these accidents. With a union, graduate assistants would automatically be covered by workmen’s compensation (and unemployment insurance too). A union would also bring a safety policy and grievance procedures so that no assistant would be forced to work under hazardous conditions. These are the major issues and not the accessibility of telephones. Whai are the effects of a graduate student union on undergraduates? Some facts first. At this University about 50 percent of the contact hours of undergraduates are serviced by graduate students. In some departments over 50 percent of the undergraduate teaching is done by Teaching percent Assistants. We estimate that close of the undergraduate teaching is done by graduate students on assistantships. Yet we only take up 5 percent of the University budget. - if there were no assistants. The union seeks to increase the number of assistantships here and therefore reduce undergraduate class size. other effects. Without an working in the wages and conditions the University will not attract the best students available (already this University is behind other state schools such as Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, and Iowa in the amount of money and benefits offered). This will hurt education since the undergraduate undergraduates will not get the best teachers who are available. Another possible outcome is that assistants will have to take on outside employment while carrying a full academic lead and teaching. The assistant’s academic life and teaching are bound to suffer under these circumstances and once again the undergraduates are hurt in the process. What about the effect on undergraduates seeking out graduate schools? As graduate students they would be subject to the pressures noted above if there were no union. Without a union there is no contract. Without a contract there is no security, and without security your income can be taken away at any time. How many people are wealthy enough to afford graduate school without this income? The alternative, again, is to procure part-time employment and thus hurt your own academic program. But wouldn’t a union raise the wage levels of assistantships and therefore reduce the number of assistantships available? No, At Wisonsin, where there is a union, the number of assistantships available has increased over the past few years. Here, where there is no legally recognized union, (about we lost 165 assistantships this past 16 percent of the total). Perhaps a contract with a security clause would have protected some of those assistantships. The writer’s argument about “privileges” (phones, offices, and tuition waivers) struck me as being rather odd. It was something to the effect that if we have negotiating rights we might lose these “privileges” and therefore, it is better not to have negotiating rights. There seems to be an assumption that involves the notion that as “privileges” these facilities and monies will always be available. This is not true. The very idea of calling these items “privileges” involves the notion that we have absolutely no rights to them. In that case either the University takes these privileges away or it doesn’t. If they decide to take them away, then without bargaining rights and negotiations they are gone. With bargaining rights we have an opportunity to negotiate and get these items back. Next there are the innuendos that connect the union at Wisconsin with the bombing of the during the computer center anti-war demonstrations. Of course the writer did not offer any evidence that union organizers had anything to do with the bombings. Do you know why? That’s right, because they had nothing to do with the bombings. Do you think that the Regents at Wisconsin would voluntarily allow the union to hold elections if they were connected with those violent actions? (Elections are held to determine if the student employees want a union. The employer has the right to contest the holding of those elections as they are doing here.) There are improvement Finally, I am appalled at the very suggestion that the organizers of the GSEU would resort to any means of harassment. Once again this is not supported by any facts, and is in direct contradiction with the actual practices of the union. It would appear that if there is any harassment being perpetrated, it is on the part of those who make unsupported and false innuendos while chosing to hide behind the mask of anonymity. The GSEU will always remain open and public as to who we are and what we are doing. �/•l I 3 i urn mil Up i i' i ,G Classical performances Very busy week for the musical community by Kerby Lovallo Spectrum Music Staff This was a busy week of performances for the University musical community. On Wednesday, October 1, the Cleveland Quartet played the second of six concerts in the annual Slee Beethoven String Quartet Cycle. Friday brought the inaugural performance of the University Philharmonia under the direction of Edward Gerber in selections by Handel, Haydn and Wagner. Also on the program was the University Choir with Harriet Simons conducting a Bach cantata. University-based composer Lejaren Hiller had his latest piece (I think) premiered at the Buffalo Philharmonic's opening pair of concerts, and Sunday, with Michael Tilson Thomas conducting. Monday, October 6, James VanDemark played the hell out of his double bass, pushing it beyond its supposed technical and expressive limits. As I said, it Saturday was a busy week and it sustained a fairly high level of artistic competence. Backbone The Cleveland Quartets program included Beethoven quartets Nos. 10 (Harp), 2 and 14. I haven't heard the Clevelanders sound this good since their Hunter College performance of No. 16 a couple years ago. To this listener their playing has become tired; sloppy balances, a weak rhythmic backbone, just generally diffused. though, most everything seemed in order. The fast movements weren't just fast, they had drive, direction (particularly the presto of No. 10) and personality. In the slower Last Wednesday the quartet sustained the lines with assurance and got into the various characters required deftly. Particularly effective were the many movements, shifts of mood throughout No. 14. My only complaint is that the opening allegro of No. 2 could have been on a more personal. conversational level. Here the Clevelanders delivered more than necessary in size of gestures. Aside from of that, this was a mature and polished display Beethoven's genius. Full sound String sounds again were the story on Friday night in the University Philharmonia concert. This is the University's symphonic elite and they played with excellent intonation, sureness of articulation and a gorgeous full sound. The strings in fact have a sound so big that it occasionally overloaded Baird Hall, which is really too small for this orchestra. The winds also sounded healthy and accurate (minus a few cracks from the horns). The most effective selection of the evening was Handel's Concerto Grosso, Op. 6 No. 12, displaying alternately vigor, grace and restraint. Haydn's Symphony No. 85 (La Reine) had fortes that overloaded (acoustically) the hall but showed warmth especially in the Romanze. Wagner's "A Siegfried Idyll" showed the orchestra well but seemed rather slack. Harriet Simons conducted the University Choir and a handful of instrumentalists in a discreet, moving rendition of J.S. Bach's Cantata No. 106, "God's Time is the Best Time." Slick reading Less than discrete was "Preview of Coming Attractions," Lejaren Hiller's computer piece that opened the Buffalo Philharmonic's 1975—76 season. A brass fanfare starts this piece on its merry way, quoting Brahms, Tchaikovsky and others via computer program and human (Hiller's) whim. On first hearing, it's fairly interesting if not ingratiating. What bothered me was the lack of woodwind sound occasional piccolo) in a piece where the woodwinds were scored as a separate, and (other than presumably important, section The program also yielded a slick reading of Richard Strauss' "Till Eulenspiegel's Merry Pranks," the Philharmonic sounding very suave and polished. The reading could have used a few well-placed Germanic punches to offset all the shine but it was anyway Mahler's "Das Lied von der Erde" (The Song of the Earth) received a wholeheartedly sympathetic performance from all involved. Maureen Forrester and Kenneth Riegel as vocalists showed the ability to immerse themselves into the text and music. Their entertaining voices are supple instruments as was the orchestra under Thomas' direction. Particularly lovely was the flute and voice dialogue in the last song Fireworks 6, brought more singing, but from a double bass. James Van Demark's double bass recital showed his instrument capable of singing,* running, jumping and most important, making beautiful music. From the first phrase of Boccherini's Sonata No. 6, VanDeMark let it be Monday evening, October known that the adjectives clumsy and gruff would be useless in his presence. There was real plasticity to the playing, something I would never expect from the double bass. In Schubert's "Arpeggione" Sonata, VanDemark showed a musical sensibility to match his technical prowess, spinning out the melodies with feeling, rhythmically pointing the passagework for clarity. The drama of Bruch's Kol Nidrei showed further musical insight by Mr. VanDemark. Capping his recital with Paganini's Variations of a theme from Rossini's "Moses In Egypt" provided some virtuosic fireworks that astonished everyone. A remarkable recital.

It looks like the day of the funny sex romp will never come again. Undercovers Hero is cinematic it has about three laughs to its name and proof that's about it. But the worst crime it commits is having Peter Sellers star in it. It's too bad the film company has to cash in on this bomb with Sellers' name. The story, about as much of a cliche as you can get, is the old tale of the whorehouse that helps the French Resistance during World War II. All the Germans speak with English accents and are forever taking their pleasures in this house of ill-repute. Finally, Sellers joins the prostitutes to help get rid of the German soldiers by rigging the beds into powerful catapults. Meanwhile, the Gestapo is catching up with the idea and tries to find out where their men are going. — Heavy-handed Two changes in the Theatre Department schedule: Approaching Simone, by Megan Terry, replaces the originally scheduled Mother Ann. Saul Elkin directs Approaching Simone, to run at the Courtyard November 20—23 and December 4-7. Also, Ronnie Bwana Jungle Guide, originally scheduled to open October 15, has been postponed until October 24. Narration is added over the soundtrack and gives some of the worst deadpan sex jokes I've ever heard. For example, towards the end, we hear, "And these women giving their all, climax after climax, helped the war on its way . .Dear God, when will it stop? And, of course, among these whores with hearts of gold, is a shy, innocent Leslie-Caron-type girl who was dropped off by her mother with the head madame to earn a living as a maid\ But soon, our sweet rose loses her virtue to save her country — jeez! What seems to be the publicity angle in this British turkey is the fact that Sellers plays sex roles altogether. He was great in Return of the Pink Panther for one performance, but even all six new ones can't save this movie. The Boulting Brothers, the producer and director of this fiasco, should stop regressing back to the childhood times when they told bad dirty jokes, and start acting grown up.

But they keep on smiling. by Dean Billanti Spectrum Arts Staff Smile is a dark comedy that is deadly The film's director, Michael Ritchie (Downhill Racer, The Candidate, Prime Cut) and scenarist,, Jerry Belson, use a Santa Rosa beauty pageant for their target, but Smile turns out to be about much more. Smile begins with a sequence in which young women are waiting at an airport to depart for the contest. The camera tracks across the girls' faces, each with a smile plastered across it, while the soundtrack plays Charles Chaplin's song "Smile, though your heart is breaking One of the pivotal characters in Smile is more commonly Robert Freelander, around Santa • Rosa as known happy-go-luck "Big Bob" (Bruce Dern), one of the judges of the contest. "Big Bob" would appear to be solidly male. We learn, however, that Bob has a neglected wife and tells Brenda (Barbara Feldon) rather innocently that her husband was "my friend first, you stole him from me." Finally, this friend turns on him; "You know what your are? You're a Young American Miss!" serious. The American way of ritual also comes up for deflation in Smile. Scenarist Belson zeroes in on a "private party" the men of the town hold anually. The men are called upon to get drunk, go through a ceremony in which each must kiss a dead chicken's ass, throw each other into a pool of water, and otherwise make fools of themselves. Earlier, Miss Annaheim and Miss Antelope Valley meet for discussion. Miss Anaheim asks, "Why shouldn't girls get money, for being cute? Boys get money for making touchdowns." Miss Antelope Valley answers, "Maybe boys shouldn't get money for making touchdowns." Cavity Their character treatment of another important in Smile, Brenda Decarlo, represents a lapse in Ritchie's and Belson's overall conception, however. Brenda (fill in: Anita Bryant, etc.) is a former "Miss" now approaching 40. As the girls' den mother, Brenda lives for and through the pageant. She is frigid and has a drunken, but also a emasculated husband permanent smile on her face. Retrospect Most of the men in the film (including Bob's friend, who is apprehensive about reaching 35) grew up in the 1950's a story Bob relates about having almost met Elizabeth Taylor on the weekend she ran off with Nicky Hilton and "Let the Good Times Roll" on the soundtrack as Bob drives off to meet his buddies confirm this but in fact they have never really grown up. Now adrift in the mid-seventies, they are disillusioned and confused, and are Yet when her husband takes a pot shot at her with his gun, his resultant feeling of The release is treated positively. filmmakers' ambivalence toward this character is a definite flaw. Smile is at times horribly funny. One contestant. Miss Salinas, plays up her Mexican background for votes and is dedicatedly obnoxious throughout. The other women have vowed to get even if they lose and do so by placing a little extra - to be — now closed curtain. Promenade The filmmaker's handling of the contestants is delicate and understated. as Miss Annette O'Toole Anaheim is exceptional. As Miss Antelope Valley, Joan Prather imbues her role of the wide-eyed and innocent with a genuine intelligence, and as Miss Salinas, Maria O'Brien is ihilarious. Barbara Feldon does the best she can with a difficult part and Bruce Dern shows remarkable skill, although he is a little bit excessive when called upon to be Hollywood As a has-been "gay." choreographer, Michael Kill (actually one of Hollywood's finest choreographers) is excellent. Conrad Hall, a superb cinematographer, photographed Smile. Hall has usually worked on films that are more static, such as westerns.

It hasn't played New York City yet, but has just opened around the country. The local newspaper campaign for the film features three young women sitting on their suitcases under the rather standard caption; "Will she make it.. .?" But the posters outside the Como Theater feature something different; a smiling young woman coming out of a toothpast tube, riding on a rainbow of colors. Why the discrepancy? Why are the theaters advertising Smile as a "new comedy hit?" One would think they didn't want audiences to take this fine film seriously they’d prefer that we simply "keep — on top of her.

In another work of the same series two young bridesmaids sit on a bed, each caught in her own world and reflecting upon her own emotions and thoughts, neither conscious of the other. Contrary to this psychological separateness is the strong sense of emotional interaction between husband and wife, brother and sister, parents and children, and boyfriend and girlfriend in Rogovin's various sections dealing with these relationships. Attitudes which these individuals hold toward one another are echoed by the poses and gestures they have assumed. a wide variety of Possessiveness, uneasiness, pride emotions are expressed even though these individuals consciously posed tor their photographs, frontally pressed against the photographic plane. It's as if they desired the spectator to know what they feel, to know what they think by wiping away the mask that so many of us wear Rogovin exhibition Buffalo history analyzed from the psychological point of view Editor's Note: Last Friday, Prodigal Sun carried an article by Paul Krehbiel dealing with Milton Rogovin's photographic exhibition at the Albright-Knox Gallery from a primarily sociological point of view. This week, Janice Simon approaches the show from a different perspective. by Janice Simon Spectrum Art Critic — tendency with color photography. It has this effect because man sees his life unravel before him in color; black and white suggests tones of the past and future, rather than of the immediate present. By the arrangement of these timeless photographs into contextual sections, a more powerful exhibit is created than if works were to stand totally alone without the implicit relationships and comparisons of the group every day. Time pieces Rogovin intensifies this spirit by juxtaposing the couples or family against certain objects such as calendars and snapshots which allude to an expanse of time in which these people have endured together. It is in these works that the hopes for tomorrow or the weariness of the past speaks to the viewer. Besides dealing with the relationships between individuals, Rogovin centers in on the individual himself in another group of photographs. Either framed by the shops they own, the inside of a room, a house for rent, or against the side of the street, these individuals open themselves with all of their strengths and weaknesses to the spectator. Within the span of an individual's life, his experiences and impressions become imprinted in the mind, forming attitudes and shaping the individual's personality. These attitudes and the memories which molded them surface momentarily for the outsider to grasp either as verbal or physical reactions to a particular occurrence or just as aspontaneous expression of character. Since the photograph can suspend time, take a moment and freeze it for eternity, it is a viable means of revealing the individual's attitudes for all to view, provided As the viewer passes from one "portrait" to the next the sense of distinct human presences intensifies and the complexity of human existence is unveiled for the spectator to marvel at. The richest and most complex images of the exhibition are those showing only objects or environments which give clues to the personalities of the absent owners. Pictures of children in front of an ornate vase, religious statues and rosary beads sitting on a dresser, workboots and shoes placed on a table below a "Puerto Rican Power" sign, and dreary stairs framing a tattered wall evoke the human experience, as do all of Rogovin's photographs, but in a more subtle way with a sensitivity for objects and the photographer is perceptive enough to grasp the right moment, that most indicative of the subject's personality. Milton Rogovin is one such photographer, who in an exhibit now on view at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery until November 9 delves into the emotions, beliefs and experiences of a group of people who reside within the area of Hudson and Cottage Streets, Trenton and Elmwood Avenues, or as Rogovin terms it: “within the shadow of Buffalo City Hall." Life process vs. photographic process Stark and objective, shot straight on without fancy techniques, Rogovin's photographs are concerned with the lives of the individuals they depict, not with the process of photography. Yet, they are artistic, not just factual documentations, but carefully thought out images created by a sensitive eye for an effective composition, one where form reflects content. Working in black and white creates a heightening of the dark and light contrasts and more immediate and powerful images. It also lends to the photographs a timeless quantity, a sense of a totality of experience rather than just a moment within a sequence of events, as is the . organization. This is not to say that the photographs are individually successful, but together they emit a general atmosphere of the human presence and allow for a more encompassing view of the idea of the individual and not their compositional arrangement. Despite their starkness, this series of photographs touches the poetic while the others do not; instead, they present the directness of the human presence. Vet, no matter which direction these photographs take, either one of forcefulness or subtlety, Rogovin has created a set of works which speak to every individual, for in transcending the particulars they specifically depict by their breadth of concept, Rogovin's photographs reflect a universal theme: that of the human experience. his relationship to the environment. Taking advantage of thy situation Rogovin explores the individual emotions and thoughts that arise in a specific situation, such as with his series of photographs dealing with a wedding. They are not a revelation within the The happiness of the bride and range of human experience. a documentation of this event, but Concert Productions International Presents SHR NR NR "WHAT'S OUR BAG?"

Similarly, the anthology bears out that imperialism Our Weekly Reader The Negritude Poets; An Anthology of Translations From The French, Ellen Conroy Kennedy, The Viking Press (Hardcover) * Those who resist seeing literature as the bedfellow of social policy might well skip this review. Ellen Conroy Kennedy's introductory remarks purport to give the Negritude poets an audience by presenting "a body of work still neglected and too little understood in the English speaking world.” However crucial the problem of language is, Kennedy misconstrues the real problem in her singular attempt to insist that all high art resides in print. The question of language is not that these Francophone poets of Negritude seldom appear in English translations, but rather the relevance of the French (or the English) as a public language to conduct an essentially African affair. Otherwise this poetry is a schizophrenic activity directed more at an imposed foreign imposed power than at an African audience. The French language symbolizes the legacy of the corruption and bad faith of colonialism. Full flowering of the black aesthetic is inhibited to the extent that the Negritude poets define themselves by the dialectic between a traditional African ethos and an imposed European culture: provokes a "bad" psychological reaction. This is part of the problem. It is hard to talk about these poems without arousing political prejudices. Distinguished by their verbal iconoclasm, the Negritude poets are courted and celebrated by Kennedy. The effect is not untie the alternate meowing and purring of a pampered cat that suffers from too much coddling and too little genuine affection. Because the Negritude poets are essentially involved in a romantic outpouring that seems more political than literary, the real question of clarifying a theoretical framework is problematical. The lack of a conscious philosophy suggests that the pervasive inheritance of these poets might have been artistic disorientation. To apply the label "movement," is fraught with difficulties since again it hints at a conscious theoretical framework. And, of course, a "movement" suggests leadership and activism, whereas most of the Negritude poets are scattered, dead, or silent: Cesaire (was) drowned; Senghor (is) hopelessly gifted, curiously compromised, silent. As a document attesting to the force vitale of a continental African pesence in Europe, Kennedy's The Negritude Poets is significant. As a book giving the truth to the lie of "contented slaves," it is invaluable. But mostly it is a showcase for those who pride themselves in knowing the pulse beat of continental Africa. —Earfene Stetson We're simply done in Africa in American With being - Your Negroes Your niggers Your dirty niggers We won't take it anymore To be sure, the Negritude poets might evolve their own unique modalities out of the tensions arising from these two opposing realities, but the question remains; Are these poems artistically outstanding within either context? The issue is not merely rhetorical; The question of how the black artist retains artistic integrity when threatened by a multitude of problems (patronage, language, the lack of publishing houses) is central to the literary process. Crying "black is beautiful" can be like whistling in the dark. The visceral urge to continually scream and shout it lends credence to their insecurity. In a significant way, this anthology is about crying and screaming. No doubt there is Our Weekly Reader Man Kind?, Cleveland Amory, Dell, 1974 (Paper) Man Kind? is a full-length attempt to accurately present the plight of our world's wildlife. The text is most valuable for its carefully documented facts and statistics on how quickly various breeds are vanishing and why exposing "mankind's" atrocities. The realms of hunting, trapping, fishing, clubbing and as well as their "humane" poisoning are explored explanations; sport, profit, nourishment and varmint — — celebrities' opinions detracts from the central issue. Amory also clumsily introduces irrelevant issues such as Communism, religion, sexism and drug addiction in an attempt to further indict the sportsmen. Amory is alternately humorous and appalled, misanthropic and optimistic, but he is always sincere. Fighting for what he believes to be the most — control. Without any heavy-handed proselyting, author Cleveland Amory successfully instills a sense of personal guilt in the reader. He begins by resorting to insults. He calls men "bestial," "batty," "chicken," "fishy" and "slothful" (though he quickly reverts statistical tables). Few creatures, he says, are less humane than man; "In nothing does man, with his grand notions of heaven and charity, show forth his innate, lowbred, wild animalism more clearly than in his treatment of his brother beasts." Amory documents the individual tragedies of the seal' the coyote, the eagle, the dolphin, even the crusader who tries to "buck" Washington. Most disheartening was the fact that the earth's last untouched ecosystem, Antarctica, is now being exploited. After describing how some young hunters stuck cigarettes in the beaks of six freshly-bagged blue geese, he says, "The incident in itself was relatively harmless . . but it is the same type of irreverence for life that has put an entire environment in peril." In the midst of his emotional pleas, Amory logically points out that since the efforts to save endangered species are often futile, and historically we have refused to act until this critical point is reached, man may exterminate himself. Amory insists "halfway measures are simply not enough" yet all he advocates is deluging federal governments with letters of protest (presumably less entertaining than his book, but more scathing). Beyond documentary, Man Kind? is concerned with refuting the case of the hunter, and pointing to the mediocre positions taken by almost all existent conservationist societies, most of which are interested primarily in preserving America's economy.

Most of the music is rather laughable in The Hungry Years and nearly all of the lyrics circle around the theme of "c'mon-baby-what-went wrong?" trivia. Even the excellence of musicianship on the album can’t help the bombing of this album. Another problem is the bland string arrangements by Artie Butler, whose main orchestral endeavors are in movies and television shows. But we can't blame him that much since the material was very weak to begin with. Even the picture on the inside record cover shows Sedaka in they type of "adonis pose" you would see in 16 Magazine. This could really make you throw up. Sedaka even has the nerve to do a re-make of "Breaking Up is Hard to Do," his early great hit. Arranged by Richard Carpenter (of the Carpenters), it sounds like the type of schmalts you can hear in night clubs. Veccch!

His music, as indicated by the album title, is strictly disco. It consists basically or long Barry White type instrumentals interspersed here and. there with short vocal hooks. Songs like "The Hustle" and "Fight the Power" are examples of disco music. Disco music may be good for discotheques but when it starts to spread throughout rock, as it is currently doing, the quality of the music deteriorates. When such notoriously non-disco acts as The Bee Gees and The Eagles ("One of These Nights") have to resort to disco music to increase their record sales, rock music is in one of its lowest periods. Van McCoy shows no versatility. Each cut sounds like the one before it and the lyrics are meaningless. For instance the only lyrics in the track "The Walk" are: "Walk, walk, get it, get it." People consider him a recording artist? How can anyone really take his music seriously? Even the album sleeve is ridiculous. McCoy looks as if he just got out of a purple and gold '66 Cadillac that has 36 body ornaments and a Landau top covering the back window. The only thing missing from the vest McCoy is wearing is a button saying he's a pimp. He certainly tries to give the appearance of one. This album is totally pointless. Even the song titles are ludicrous: "Roll With the Punches," "Keep on Hustlin' and "Earthquake." I'm sure this album was recorded in less than a day. How many takes does an artist need when there are only two lyrics to the song and they're sung twice every minute? And to think there are rock stars out of work, dying to get back in a recording studio. How can a Van McCoy record an album and hit the album charts when a John Sebastian puts out an album that sells 16 copies? The only hope for now is that the disco craze will fade out and the record buying public won't be swamped with Van McCoys and B.T. Express. Steven Brieff " Prodigal Sun �... . .. / Snore. Now here is the tough part. Granted the Nitty are thoroughly competent musicians. Granted there is never a sense of disjointedness about the album. Granted that it's never unpleasant. All that taken, there's still one problem; the Dirt Band, neither here nor on any of their other efforts, do they really tell us who they are, outside of being good mimics. They put so much effort into convincing us that they're reasonable facsimiles of the Allman Brothers, the Foggy Mountain Boys and the Kershaw Cajun Band, that they establish no identity for themselves. Grittys —My father In dreams, I often have a strange sense of both participating and not participating; a sensation of observing myself in action. It's odd to be saying this about any musicians, but the Nifty Gritty Dirt Band's music has a great deal in common with this kind of vicarious participation.

Those who were devoted to such albums as Fillmore East and Eat a Peach are considerably less pleased with the Brothers and Gregg's newer work. Happily, there are several groups that offer an 21 76 Delaware Ave buttalo 874-0777 enjoyable alternative to the realigned Allman's. One of the best of the newer groups is the Charlie Daniels Band. This band, which put, on an excellent performance in Buffalo last year while releasing a fine album, Fire on the Mountain, continues to impress with their latest effort, Nightrider. Charlie Daniels was long known down South as an excellent studio musician who played with many of the notables including Dylan on his Nashville Skyline. Here he has collected a group of musicians who help him display his talents, which is considerable. He is easily one of the finest fiddlers in the South and plays a very nice electric guitar, which doesn't, unfortunately, get enough exposure in this album. The rest of the band is highlighted by keyboard man Joel DiGregorio. Second guitar Tom Crain also gets in some nice licks with Daniels, reminiscent of old Duane Allman-Dicky Betts duels. When the Mott, Drive On (Columbia) Mott The Hoople is now simply Mott. Ian Hunter has since departed, taking with him "The Hoople," his infamous shades and Bowie's alter ego Mick Ronson. The arduous task of putting Mott back on track fell on the only two original members. Dale Griffin on drums and bassist Overend Watts. The future looked bleak. Mott had to prove their ability without Hunter's guidance and the smart money wasn't going with Mott's chances of success. Drive On champions the underdog. It is an album that is quite good considering the ominous its surrounding conception. Mott factors demonstrates a professionalism that enables their simplistic rock to sound fresh and fairly exciting. A couple of bitter sweet ballads nicely contrast with the more high energy rock numbers. Drive On almost captures the fading magic and power of rock and roll. As far as rock albums go, one could do far worse than seeking some temporary relief and refuge in Mott's latest offering. How can anyone not feel a warm connection with a band that was once produced by David Bowie, did "Sweet Jane" and had the impeccable taste to cover the inside of one of their Ips with a D.H. Lawrence trodigai bun Band succeeds in recreating those duels, sucli as in "Funky Junky" and "Birmingham Blues," they are at their best. This is a nice, rockin' country album, but this group is capable of bigger things in a less-country, more-blues oriented format. —David Friedman poem Drive On is a worthy scion of this band with such a rich musical history. —C.P.

Curiosity invokes us to ask the question — WHY??? Of the many insomniacs roaming the corridors of Ellicott all hours of the night, we have thus far excluded only six possible suspects who would repetitiously and obnoxiously commit such an act as “pulling a false alarm.” We know for sure that it isn’t the Scare-Crow, for he fears anything associated with the word “FIRE.” Equally sure we can exclude the Lion, for he*s chicken It wasn’t the Tin Man because we know he’s been in Room 1164 getting a lube job every night.

At this meeting Ketter indicated that the inclusion of a non-discriminatory clause is the remaining condition for approval of the Charter by the October 15, 1975 Women’s Studies College deadline. WSC took Ketter’s condition to its Governance Assembly on October 1, 1975. It was unanimously decided that the following statement would be included in the Charter: “Women’s Studies College is of program committed to a policy a non-discrimination. Women’s Studies College does not unlawfully discriminate on the grounds of race, color, creed, sex or national origins.” A letter was sent to President Ketter on October 3, 1975, stating that WSC had voted unanimously to of the inclusion of a his condition accept non-discriminatory clause in its Charter. WSC requested that Ketter inform the College of his official approval by Wednesday, October 8, 1975. WSC hopes to announce official approval of its charter at its October 15 rally to be held at noon in Haas Lounge, Norton Union. It will also be an informational rally on all-women’s classes, at which there will be speakers, entertainment and the initiation of a petition campaign. Women's Studies College Inexcusable omission To the Editor It came to my attention that on the centerfold of The Spectrum commemorating International Women’s Year, that there was not one Black, Puerto Rican or Third World woman in the pictures titled “The Illuminated Working Woman.” I am sure that if you looked really well, you would have found quite a few here on campus and in the community. If you are writing or showing pictures of working women, then you must not forget about the Puerto Rican and Third World, women because they are definitely a part of the working Blacks, class and have been struggling for years and still are. There was a part of a speech by Sojourner Truth in the article, “Striving for Identity: Women in History,” and another on the Women in the Middle East, but that is only a very small taste; what about others? I can’t imagine what possible excuse that would satisfy me that could be given to explain this but if you are commemorating International Women’s Year, please do it right.

Name withheld upon request Poorly run elections To the Editor Thursday October 2, an election was held, in which I was a candidate. 1 am not protesting because I lost, but because of the apathy of the students on campus. Out of 27,000 eligible voters, LESS THAN 400 bothered to vote. This is a little over 1 percent of the total enrollment here. I feel the apathy of the student body reflects their attitude of non-commital opinions about University policy. 1 also believe the election of College Council was a big joke to the Student Association, which didn’t even know in its own structure, which election it was running. 1 had to persistently keep after Michele Smith, SA President and Stephanie Wander of Elections and Credentials to find out the RIGHT election date (Sept. 30 or Oct. 2). Then they put up the wrong signs at the polls. Their signs read Student Council Elections, NOT College Council. 1 went to Stephanie and told her about the signs; she asked me what’s the difference.

This park has a variety of trees, including elms, oaks, maples, and poplars. Picnic areas and shelters dot the woods of Chestnut Ridge, surrounded by a maze of trails. In the twon of Aurora, Emery Park contains wooded sections, shelters and picnic areas. The smallest park is Akron Falls, located east of Buffalo in Newstead. Within the park, hikers can’view a waterfall surrounded by multi-colored trees or wade through a rushing stream. The county parks are becoming more popular every year and the Department of Recreation offers a variety of park-oriented programs. These parks are free to the general public. State parks charge admittance fees. Wilderness preserved The two state parks in the Western New York region are Alleghany and Letchworth, both part of the State Council of Parks. Alleghany is the largest state park in New York. Found in the southwestern sector along the New York-Pennsylvania border, it is seven miles west of Salamanca. A unique aspect of Alleghany is its location in a section of the state that was never covered by glaciers. As a result, the wilderness has been preserved the,way it was thousands of years ago. Preservation is an important reason behind the state park system. John Letchworth, worried that his land was being destroyed, donated a large portion to the state in 1906. Today, Letchworth State is known as “the Grand Canyon of the East” because of its deep 15-mile gorge. The park has three waterfalls and a landscaped section of trees. Both state parks have the usual facilities plus cabins. Deer huntinf is allowed in both parks and limited turkey hunting is permitted in Alleghany.

Upon entering any one of the parks, the visitor is presented with a panorama of colors. Vibrant yellows, oranges, greens, purples, reds and rusts of the leaves crown the tops of the trees. The visitor is hard pressed not to be awed when sunlight, filtering down through the branches, hits the ground in an intricate pattern of shadows and highlights. As fall very quickly changes into winter. Chestnut Ridge, Alleghany and Letchworth adapt to the colder weather by providing facilities for such activities as skiing (down-hill and cross country), toboganning, sledding and snowmobiling.

Bulls drop first game while darkness decides second tilt by Paige Miller A ssistant Sports Editor NIAGARA The Bulls had loaded the bases with two out in the top of the tenth inning against Niagara on Tuesday. The tension was mounting as the sun slowly the horizon. sank below Suddenly, Buffalo coach Bill Monkarsh came trotting down the third base line, offering to call the game because of darkness. Niagara couch Paul Smith was surprised, but nevertheless accepted. Later Monkarsh explained, “You couldn’t see out there. I didn’t want anyone to get hurt.” So the Bulls, after dropping the first game 3-2, had to settle for a 5-5 tie in the second game. It was a frustrating day for Buffalo. The Bulls used five freshmen and several other players not at their normal positions. “No question about it,” Monkarsh said. “Our inexperience hurt us.” In fact, Buffalo should have won both games. - Ooops! With two out in the bottom of _the first inning of the opener, the Purple Eagles’ John Riggie walked, and then Tom Bannon singled him to third. Mike Malek was next, and he hit a fly to center, which Bulls centerfielder Jim Mary* never saw. By the time he did see it,‘Malek had a triple and Niagara had two runs they shouldn’t have had. Naturally, the two runs changed the outcome of the game. Jim Niewczyk, who had been having control problems but was otherwise tough to hit, was the Bulls’ hard luck loser. Niewczyk also relieved Mike Dean in the second game, and again was the victim of some bizarre outfielding. In the top of the ninth, Buffalo’s Mike Burg led off with a walk and promptly stole second. Freshman John White then hit a long flyball to center, which was misjudged by Niagara’s Lou Thyroff. The ball landed just out of Thyroff s reach, giving White a triple. Mike Dixon then singled White home to give Buffalo a two run lead. Not again That must have made Niewczyk and the Bulls feel better. But not for long. Niewczyk walked the first two Purple Eagles he faced in the of Detroit, or Dallas 10-3. This puts his log a of compiled weekly again he correctly, season’s performance at 28-11 (.71 5) nothing to sneer at. Despite the Wizard’s inability to pick Buffalo, bottom of the ninth. Then'history repeated itself for the third time. Freshman rightfielder Eddy Terrell misjudged Bob Stanley’s flyball, and it sailed over his head, allowing one run to score. Tom Zaccardo followed with a sacrifice fly, enabling'Niagara to re-tie the game. Monkarsh refused to put the blame on his outfielders alone. He claimed that it was more of a ‘Team loss” since the Bulls’ bats were silent when they shouldn’t have been. Three times, Buffalo loaded the bases, but failed to score, including the last inning of each game. “Th’ey (Niagara’s pitchers) got ahead of our hitters,” Monkarsh noted. “Then the pressure got to our hitters. We had the wrong man up at the right time,” he added, again referring to Buffalo’s inexperience. Nevertheless, Monkarsh saw some things that made him happy. “I was pleased with our pitching staff. I thought Mike Dean pitched well in the second game,” he said. Monkarsh also was happy with the way Buffalo came back after being down twice and he felt that both White and Jack Kamraska, who was hurt, were standouts. Despite the numerous miscues by the freshmen, Monkarsh indicated that he would continue to use them, so that they would be ready in the spring. “That’s when it counts,” he added. For a little more than a decade the American League has been suffering from an inferiority complex. Its inability to win All-Star games has caused it to be considered the “other league,” second to the National. Its only salvation has been the World Series. Thanks to the Oakland A’s and the Baltimore Orioles, the A.L. has won four of the last five Fall Classics and maintained a sufficient amount of prestige. If the A.L. keeps winning World Series, how bad can it be? this the year However, American League does not have the A’s, world champs the last three years, to count on. Oakland was blown out of the divisional playoffs by the Boston Red Sox. The Boston Red Sox? A.L. fans are shaking their heads. How can the Bosox defeat the almighty Cincinnati Reds, a team with no glaring weaknesses. The Reds, 2-4 in past Series everything have competition, imaginable. They have the best catcher in baseball in Johnny Bench, the best third baseman in Pete Rose, and possibly the best second baseman in Joe Morgan. In addition to these big three, surplus of Cincinnati has a I realize I might be compared unfavorably with the _ Wizard of Odds and may receive stacks of nasty mail from angry Reds fans, but it’s my guess that the Red Sox will upset the heavily favored Reds in a long and bitterly fought World Series. The Sox, who have been victorious in five of their seven past Series, have been winning the “must” games all are this year’s They year. Cinderella team and may be likened to the 1969 Mets. Among Boston’s assets is a solid, clutch offense and an effective defense. Their pitching, which had been shaky all year, was strong against the A’s. of all, Boston has But most Fenway Park, with its Green Monster in left field, which can destroy lefthanded pitchers. Only southpaw one left Fenway victorious all season. Cincinnati’s top starter, Don Gullett, is left handed and if the Series lasts seven games (with games 1, 2, 6 and 7 being played in Boston), he would have to pitch the first and seventh contests in Fenway, a disheartening prospect to say the least. With the Green Monster, Fred the Luis Tiant and incredible Carl Yastrzemski look for the Red Sox to do the celebrating when it’s all over. Lynn, outstanding players. George Foster, Cesar Geronimo and Tony Perez supply the Reds with power, speed and top notch defense.

Women’s Studies and Inten been overplayed, and the Student Assoc utterly inane. Even the budget crises havi create any new interest among students. The Spectrum has not been its contro’ It hasn’t had the juicy scandals or biting reputation. The reasons for this are numen has been that there are no scandals to ex' programs to criticize. The editorial page of the October 8 out this point. Most of the letters pu oversights made in certain stories, or mild criticisms of various points of view. There is very little to disagree with. The only topic which seems to have upset Buffalo students this semester is the predictions of the Wizard of Odds. Today, as on all Fridays throughout the professional football season, the Wizard endeavors through ESP, top secret scouting reports, and personal whim, to predict the outcomes in the National Football League the following Sunday and Monday night. So far, the Wizard has been successful. His 71 percent accuracy rating is at least respectable. Yet week after week letters come in complaining about his selections. He has been called an “asshole moron,” an “obvious fart” who “talks out of his ass,” and a “microccphalic idiot.” All the letters complain that the Wizard is totally unfit to predict football scores, despite the fact that he does forecast well each week. Closer inspection of the Wizard’s selections sheds some light on the mystery. The angelic Buffalo Bills are 3-0 this year, and haven’t looked better since the days of Cookie Gilchrist and Jack Kemp. But the Wizard has picked the Bills to lose each time out. Furthermore, the letters insinuate that the Wizard must be some terrible ogre from New York City because no Buffalonian in his right mind would dare publicly to pick the Bills to lose. So. Now the issue is clear. It is not “the Wizard stinks vs. the Wizard is great.” It is instead, “The Wizard stinks ‘cause he’s from New York vs. New Yorkers are great.” It’s the old Michael O’Neill controversy. Buffalonians hate New Yorkers because they are snobs, and New Yorkers hate Buffalonians because they are hicks. Now we’re getting some controversy. How many of you Queen City dwellers out there have good friends from New York and vice-versa? Actually, each side has some great arguments. New Yorkers as a whole are indeed snobbish. People from Brooklyn do in fact say “Toidy toid and toid.” They certainly do overestimate the size of New York and underestimate that of Buffalo. On the other hand, New York is a great city. Its cultural and business attractions are unmatched. Being from New York is classy. Then again, Buffalo isn’t a total void by any means. It does offer cultural attractions, though not as many as New York, and it is much less impersonal than the Big Apple. It also happens to be a fine sports Soccer Bulls beat Niagara 4 —2 to clinch championship pass. Kulu made the play by drawing three Niagara defensemen away from the goal with his taunting dribbling tactics. by Ira Brushman Spectrum Staff Writer The soccer Bulls clinched the Big Four championship on Wednesday by beating Niagara 4-2. That win, coupled with victories over Buffalo State 2-1, and Canisius 3-0, gives the Bulls a perfect 3-0 record against conference schools. Their overall record is now 6-2. Sophomore Emmanuel Kulu and Junior Jeff Reid provided the offensive punch in the Bulls’ win. Kulu scored one goal and set up two more, both of which were scored by Reid. Kulu to Reid again The second half was completely dominated by Buffalo. The Bulls increased their lead to 4-1 on another similar effort by Kulu and Reid. Kulu again lured a gang of Purple Eagles away from the goal, and then passed perfectly to Reid. Niagara rounded out the scoring with a meaningless goal near the end of the game. Coach Sal Esposito was relatively pleased with his team’s performance, explaining, “I wasn’t real happy with the first half, but in the second half, we were picking up their halfbacks and playing good soccer. The two finest plays of the game were Kulu’s two assists to Reid. He does that so well,” Esposito Bulls take early lead Buffalo struck first just five and a half minutes into the game when Mike Allyn passed to Mike Pietrasik who neatly headed the ball in. The score said. was Pietrasik’s third in his last two games. Kulu himself seemed quite pleased with his own After Niagara tied it up, the Bulls regained the well, “We are lead at the 39:34 mark of the first half on a free kick performance, and that of the team’s as The is now. We will really improving. together eleven team in goals The now has star forward by Kulu. just six games. The Buffalo record for goals in a win the SUNY Center Tournament, and I’m telling season is 15 by Jim Young, and Kulu seems you that we can surprise in the NCAA if we make confident that he will surpass that mark. “I will it,” he commented. As for his personal success, Kulu noted, “1 definitely break the record. Only half the season is should be All-American this year. 1 should have gone, and I already have 11,” Kulu said. The gulls extended their lead to 3-1 five and a gotten it last year, but we didn’t play enough good half minutes later as Kulu set up Reid with a perfect teams.” town. But Buffalo is hardly a dream city. “Mary,” “merry,” and “marry” distictly different words. Lake Erie is as polluted as the people in Murphy’s Tavern on a Saturday night. These are just a small sampling of the many arguments for and against New York State’s two largest cities and their inhabitants. The bad feeling between them is there, but it takes a Wizard of Odds to snuff it out. If this column has infuriated you just a bit, don’t hesitate to write the nastiest letter you can. The Wizard and 1 would really be interested to hear your opinions on this subject.

Welch said the College will sponsor talks on how to live cheaply and nutritiously and on how to cut utility bills through energy conservation. Daily activity In addition to the formal academic program, the College’s residential unit offers almost daily activities ranging from lectures to apple picking. A favorite activity is Sunday night dinner, open to anybody (for $1) who signs up by Friday afternoon at the College office in Wilkeson Quad in the Ellicott Complex. Welch and Parsons pointed out that the College was serving large numbers of students on a painfully limited budget. About 40 courses are offered, many of cross-listed with which are academic departments. For this large load, Welch observed that the total budget for the College staffs salaries is less than that necessary to pay a full professor in any academic department. For instance, he said the College offered a course in Plant Taxonomy taught by a man holding a doctorate in that subject, which was cross-listed with the Biology Department. The College paid him $650, according to Welch, or less than one-fifth of what a regular University faculty member averages for each course. “If there isn’t any change, the College will finish in the red this Siupgl-fCarlK year,” Parsons said. “We’d like to have outdoor education and environmental technology in the curriculum,” he added, but said that they couldn’t do this without more money. Responsibility cited “We’re an academically responsible unit that serves the University and the community, and we want full academic and recognition,” Welch financial asserted. Cora P. Maloney College was born from the remnants of the old College E. Its history has been one of development, said faculty master Frank Brown, a member of the Educational Administration Department. Cora P. Maloney is currently located in buildings 5 and 6 of Ellicott’s Fargo Quad, and is dedicated to studying subjects of interest to inner-city residents. Brown stressed that the residential unit, which currently houses 85 students, welcomes people of all ethnic backgrounds. Cora P. Maloney courses cover such areas as inner-city housing, delivery of health services in the inner city, and recreation for the inner-city. In addition, Brown said, the College has been trying to work out internships with the local media. The College now provides interns to Buffalo’s three black newspapers, he reported, and hopes to send interns to newspapers serving other ethnic groups in the near future. —continued on page 8— Lunlker & EraflsKop Handcrafted leather, jewelry, sand pottery, candles, stained glass, imported leather, photographs, and handcrafted furniture.

Ray Glass, one of the founders decision is final by Richard Korman Managing Editor The decision to renew the three year contract of Speech Communications Department Chairman Molefi Asante vas announced Monday by Social Sciences Provost Arthur Butler. Butler made his announcement in a conference room at the Ridge Lea Campus crowded with over 40 cheering students who had stood outside in hallways in support of Asante. Butler touched off angry criticism and charges of racism last week from graduate and undergraduate Speech Communications students, the Black Student Union (BSU) and the Third World Veteran’s Organization when he first upheld a faculty vote he said was against renewing Asante’s contract, which expires in August 1976. Asante, who is tenured, is the only black department chairman at this University. He could not be reached for comment. BSU President Larry Williams had urged both black and white students in an afternoon rally at Norton Square to gether at Ridge Lea in support of Asante while awaiting the final decision of the provost. When the first decision was announced last week, dismayed students began flooding Butler’s office. Eventually, he decided to reconsider. The controversy began when Butler reported that the results of secret balloting by the department faculty came out against reappointing Asante. He also said that balloting by graduate students was heavily in Asante’s favor. Butler refused to reveal the actual number of votes for and against Asante in each election, and would only disclose whether a vote was favorable or not Strong support The vote among the Speech Communications graduate students was estimated to be as high as two-thirds in favor of retaining Asante as chairman. According to several graduate students familiar with the leanings of the 11 member faculty, the vote against Asante may have been decided by one or two ballots. Departmental votes are normally held one year before a chairman’s appointment expires. After the faculty provost evaluates the results of departmental elections, he forwards a recommendation to the Vice President for Academic Affairs, who in turn, makes a recommendation to President Robert Ketter. His passpoit photos. grad >». Butler defended concealing the actual tabulation of the departmental elections to safeguard the anonymity of the ballots, because “once you give results, it’s easy to figure who voted for whom.” In his “rough descriptions” of the results Friday, Butler reported that although the graduate student vote was favorable, “faculty support was not strong.” He also stressed that his role in the decision was only advisory in a longer chain of decisions. The Speech Communications graduate program has about 108 students, about 40 of whom are black. “I’m convinced that the faculty vote [against Asante] was not made on racist grounds,” Butler said in an interview following his announcement of Asante’s reqppointment. He explained during his announcement that the decision to reappoint was made on academic grounds “after considering all aspects of the Speech Department.” Departmental unity “The growth of the department cannot be done with 100 percent involvement,” Butler told the group of mostly black student which was admitted to the room where Butler conferred with the department faculty during the afternoon. He asserted that Asante should not only hire faculty who will agree with him, and repeatedly emphasized the importance of settling differences within the department. Some of the students gathered with Butler and the department faculty in the small room at 4230 Ridge Lea appeared skeptical, despite assurances that the faculty was reconciled with Asante and determined to work together to improve the department. Several students criticized the faculty for its factionalism and a “lack of communication among the communicators.” Others urged that faculty members be replaced unless they are able to resume a working relationship with Asante. A faculty member, who asked that his name not be disclosed, said that although he had voted against reappointing Asante, he was still on good speaking terms with the department chairman and felt their work together in the future would benefit from the airing of differences of opinion. Different opinions The faculty member, like several of his colleagues who were questioned, refused to discuss any specific criticisms of Asante other than saying the chairman simply had a different opinion of how the department should be run. On Friday, Butler indicated that criticisms leveled by faculty who opposed Asanle's reappointment included lowering academic standards and not consulting with faculty on important matters. He did not elaborate, Thursday, Thursday in Watertown. Glass was known to many as “father of student politics in New State.” York SASU’s As Legislative Director, he lobbied for legislation favorable to students, and actively sought to improve the condition of SUNY students, especially in the areas of student rights, fees, and services. Glass’ death came as a monumental blow to those who knew and respected him, and for those in SASU with whom he worked. Credited with holding the organization together during some of its uncertain times, his presence will be sorely missed, according to SASU president Bob Kirkpatrick. A Ray Glass Fund has been by SASU, which, according to Kirkpatrick, will be “used to further the dreams he dedicated his life to.” In lieu of flowers, Glass’ family has requested that contributions be made to that fund. established Needless “I’m not sure how many people realized the family-type ties within this organization, but without exception, losing our brother so burden Hear 0 Israel— For gems from the JEWISH BIBLE Phone 875-4265 has needlessly almost impossible to bear,” Kirkpatrick said. “The world moves on, and we’ve got to tackle it head-on,” he added.

Much of the division within the department was differences and characterized as personal of who faculty on the ambitious oppotunism part saw themselves as Asante’s successor. One explanation of Butler’s initial support of the faculty vote against reappointment was that he valued the votes an; opinions of tenured faculty members over those of non-tenured faculty and graduate students. The Speech Coomunications Department separated from the Department of Speech-Pathology and Audiology at the beginning of the semester. The split was carried out without controversy, and was considered the result of planning by Asante. Another explanation of the faculty vote was that it was a reaction by those who opposed the departmental split. Another view is that the faculty vote was an expression of jealousy towards a young, popular and successful black scholar and administrator. Asante was often described by students as easy to work with and friendly. “He’s the kind of guy you don’t need to make an appointment with a week in advance,” said one graduate student. be closed of the Student Association of the State University (SASU) five years ago, died Sunday of injuries suffered in a car mishap last week.

It seems obvious only that when two sides have opposing points of view, the way they can come to some sort of reconciliation is by airing their differences openly and honestly. However, faculty Editor’s note: Paul Harvey is best known as a news analyst whose honest, straightforward thinking is focused on a wide range of human interests, including politics, philosophy, history, economics, literature and art. He is also a best-selling author.

I’d be interested in your analysis of this epidemic of assassination. I’ve heard Treasury Secretary William Simon’s. He blames the news media for limelighting these goofballs. This kind of attention being “glamorized” by getting their pictures on the front pages and on the covers of magazines says Simon, “makes nuts into celebrities.” He says that the personal publicity which he has been getting has tripled the number of threats against his own life.

Today, in her late ’30’s, and a mother of two teenage boys, the President of the Millard Fillmore College (MFC) Student Association is an outstanding student who will receive her degree in Philosophy this year and then go on to seek training in Student Affairs Counseling. A widow, a mother, and a full-time employee of the telephone company, Phyllis underwent a good deal of soul-searching before returning to school. She had attended Buffalo State College as a major in Home Economics for two years, after graduating from high school before dropping out to get married. When her husband died in 1969, Phyllis first considered returning to school to complete her education. She considers this a major turning point in her life. “It as an adjustment time, but it helped preserve my sanity,” she said. Drafted She first decided to brave the wear and tear of student politics in 1973, while she was seeking financial aid. She went to see her advisor, and was told that MFC needed help. Phyllis has found her experience as MFC President “I’ve learned more here than I ever have very enriching. in any of-my classes,” she said, “and because of this, a lot of the things I’ve Jieard in my classes have become much more pertinent.” Phyllis feels women in student politics face special problems, but that in displaying a willingness to face these problems, they gain a certain amount of respect. “You have .to work a little harder to establish your credibility, but the women in student politics are probably the ones who will have the determination to make a place for themselves in the world,” she noted. She feels one of the main problems a woman in student politics faces, especially if she’s young, is • patronization. An oppressed minority Phyllis, who is also MFC’s representative tp the Student Association of the State University (SASU), said she is very happy with the way that organization treats the women in its ranks. On a state-wide level, however, she sees women as an oppressed minority. She feels there is a need for more women students, faculty and administrators, because being in the minority creates numerous problems for women in the University. “Many of us have no self-identity, and (we) have a tendency to let (ourselves) be molded, into a stereotype,” she said. “We’re doing a good deal in Buffalo,” she said, commenting on the fact that women lead three of the seven student governments and many of the campus organizations, such as the Jewish Student Union, New Public Interest Research Group and The York Spectrum. On the issue of Title IX, Phyllis feels the University could possibly be using a devise against women which was originally meant to protect them. “It’s time people were regarded as people rather than a sex,” she concluded. “It’s people that make up a University, and that’s how we should strive to treat each other.” SUNYdeclares 'Salute to Women’day 12:00 p.m. 1:00 p.m. Luncheon ($1.50), Fillmore Room Summary of Panels, Fillmore Room Tuesday, October 14: International Day Page eight .

The Chancellor of the State University of New York (SUNY) later declared Saturday, October 18, to be the official Women’s Day on all SUNY campuses. The University’s Salute to Women centers around equality in law, economic rights, family responsibilities, decision-making at all political levels, access to health care, support for the integration of cultural social, and women in economic, of the role of women development, and recognition international and world peace. in cooperation The Salute to Women includes a wide variety of workshops, discussions and presentations covering every aspect of women’s lives and their roles in the United States and the world. The sponsors of these programs include Women’s Studies College, UUAB, University Opera Studio, Student Association, Speakers Bureau, the Association of Women Law Students, Sisters of Sappho, and many of the academic departments. The Spectrum has joined these other campus organizations in commemorating International Women’s Year with the publication of this special 12-page supplement devoted to women. The University’s Salute to Women includes something for all of us, male and female alike. It will be remembered as a week of cultural, political, and spiritual growth, but most of all as a time when human beings are seeking to understand each other.

The groupie syndrome is a carnival mirror exaggeration of typical male-female relationships in the are by C .P. Farkas Music Editor The position of women in contemporary music has been, at best, prone. Any discussion of women’s role in music that neglects the patriarchal primacy of our society would be an invitation to folly and an exercise ringing with futility. Music reflects the attitudes and mores of the prevailing culture. Women have long worn and endured the the yoke of male oppression field of rock and popular music is no exception. — society. Examples of rock sexism are about as hard to locate as a bull elephant cavorting in a strawberry patch. The Rolling Stones have been prime contributors in keeping the patriarchy alive and well. A cursory glimpse of the Stones’ titles such as “Under My Thumb,” “Stray Cat Blues,” and “Stupid Girl” are enough to divulge their sexist content. Rock music has always been a male dominated enterprise. The essence and thrust of rock has Woman as nigger been the sexual hormonal Niagara John Lennon’s Beatle tune that characterizes the onset of “Run For Your life” was a classic puberty.

Girls and women and empathetic portrayal of the condition of women. Currently rock music is still heavily populated with firm pockets of patriarchal patriots. Jim Dandy and Black Oak Arkansas spearhead a rugged, male macho individualistic hogwash which they try to pawn off as some type of blood consciousness sexuality. It is nothing of the sort; rather it is a mish-mash of egocentric masculine power-tripping. Cosmetic tokenism The status of women in popular and rock music has been one of gross under-representation and tokenism. A quick survey of musicians discloses the fact that (sic) “sessionmen,” ipso facto, rarely tend to be women. If women are involved in any studio work, it usually is in some cosmetic or tangential task such as vocals. Record producers for all practical purposes are men. The mega-corporations which constitute the record industry are of composed overwhelmingly male executives. The pattern is nauseatingly evident. Women in contemporary and rock music work in a variety of genres. Linda Ronstadt and Bonnie Raitt are two of the best women song interpreters. Yet the vista of their musical expression is limited because they primarily record songs written by men and are produced by men. These are essentially the same limitations which have stunned the musical growth of folk singers Joan Baez and Judy Collins. most successful and talented of this elite is Joni Mitchell. Joni has fused her enormous songwriting abilities and her brilliant voice to create a musical muse which is as rare as it is beautiful. Talent and brick walls Carole King, a veteran of the changing musical landscape, has from impressive graduated songwriting to top flight recording artist. Witness her Tapestry Ip.

A crystal ball viewing of the future provides a sliver of in for a mini-renaissance optimism women’s music. If beat poetress Patti Smith’s debut album lives up to half of the advanced hype, it promises to be a minor milestone. The other bit of good news is that Laura Nyro is back in the recording studio. An album should be forthcoming shortly and if Laura can control her moodiness, the record should be a solid collection of quality musical statements. But if International Women’s Week is to mean anything besides hollow or an sloganeering equivalent to National Frozen Food Week, it should prompt us all to seriously re-examine the role of women in society. We must initiate revolutionary changes in ourselves in order to completely all the deadening purge stereotypes within us that were and are created and perpetuated by an oppressive patriarchal system. Only when we’ve decided to the patriarchal institutions, which chains our potential to relate and touch as humans, will women’s untapped abilities finally flow serenely and powerfully to immensely augment not only the musical universe, but the very fabrit of our lives. overturn Wednesday, 8 October 1975 . The Spectrum . Page nine �Commentary Men find that equal rights benefit everyone employers and supported by a vast and sophisticated ideology expressed suhtley in all areas of our culture, fosters conflict between women and men. This division weakens the ability of both to fight for their economic advancement. Likewise, in the South, where racism is harshest (except for Boston), white workers have a much lower standard of living than do white northern workers. When white men spend their time opposing the struggles of black people or women, they weaken their own fight for economic advances. The fastest and steadiest progress can be made only when all working people unite to win better wages and working conditions from the profits of the business owners, rather than from the wages of each other. The defense of all was strengthened when everyone united to build the trade unions, and only then were tremendous gains made. by Paul Krehbiel Contributing Editor While some men continue to ignore the women’s movement,’many are beginning to accept it, and some are actively supporting it. The reasons are probably varied, but men are recognizing that equal rights and opportunities for everyone means a better quality of life for all. Perhaps the clearest example of this is in the economic sphere. Women have been consistently denied equal job opportunities, equal pay, and full political and social rights on the basis of the false ideology of “women’s inferiority.” Most people would probably not express their reservations about women’s rights in this language. They argue that women don’t need better jobs or equal pay because the work they perform is not as essential; or that they don’t really need more money. Of course, many women are the sole bread-winners ‘Dustbin of history’ Today, there is mountains of evidence to of their family. disprove the belief in women’s “inferiority.” Despite the additional obstacles that society has constructed, Myths women have shown tremendous ability, growing Black, Puerto Rican and Native American and proven leadership in student participation, have women have been the most exploited since they the professions, arts, sciences, trade also been victims of the myth of “racial inferiority.” organizations, political organizations and While usually not verbalized publicly, these ideas are unions, industry, services, and sports. institutions often evident in one’s private conversations and Men who slander women’s progress and make behavior. movement, reveal According to Judy Edelman, a former staff crude jokes about the women’s thinking.

Along with the tremendous political changes that have taken place in Vietnam and Guinea-Bissau, women in those countries are now free of the rape and brutalization that characterized their life under colonialism. Women in Portugal now have increased opportunities for education. And in Cuba, the Soviet Union and other socialist countries, women enjoy the widest range of rights, opportunities, and protections. According to Edelman, women in the Soviet Union are guaranteed equal opportunities in job selection, and training, equal pay for equal work, are , MORE NOl . ,. Mol [equal PAY!

Additionally, half of all students in higher education are women, half of the Soviet workforce are women, and women account for over 70 percent of all doctors and almost 75 percent of all educators. Almost one-third of the elected representatives to the Supreme Soviet are women, they are 42 percent of local and regional Soviets, and one-half of all tfade unionists. These tremendous advances for women, Edelman believes, are the result of a more human socialism. political, economic and social system She concludes that only the united participation of both men and women in the progressive movements can win a better life for all people. — ? for good women really Amendment Rights Is Equal by Sheila Kaplan Special to The Spectrum There’s an ongoing battle between those who want women and men to have equal rights under the law and those who don’t. Surprisingly, this battle is not between women and men, but between women and women. “Equality of rights, under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any other State on account of sex.” This is the proposed Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), twenty-five words which provide that sex will not be a factor in determining the legal rights of and women and which recognize the individuality of men every human being. The ERA is not new. It was introduced to Congress in 1923, and collected dust until the burgeoning women’s liberation movement brought attention to it in the early seventies. The amendment passed enthusiastically by both houses of Congress, and to date, needs only to be ratified by four more states to become law. But in the past year, opposition to the ERA has been growing. The women’s rights movement was shocked to learn that their staunchest enemies were not men, but an anti-ERA Wake-up, Operation other women. organization with 100,000 active supporters, says it is trying to protect women from the ERA, which it feels could destroy the family. Arguments against The president of the Buffalo chapter of Operation Wake-up, Mary Ann Sanscrainte, feels the ERA is unnecessary. “It will not add one benefit to women in areas of human rights.

Sanscrainte also cited the possibility of unisex bathrooms, co-ed sports teams, female draftees, homosexual marriages, and repeal of alimony laws. Arguments Pat Yungbluth, president of the Buffalo Chapter of National Organization of Women condemned Operation Wake-up for “using scare tactics, much-told stories of unisex bathrooms, homosexual marriages and legalized rape which are simply ridiculous and untrue to misinform the public.” Yungbluth stated the reasons for the ERA. “The existing laws can be changed at any time with a conservative lobby. The ERA is the only thing that protects the rights we have. Without the amendment, all of the progressive laws that have been enacted these past few years could be repealed at the whim of the Legislature,” she explained. As with most constitutional amendments, the ERA does not specify what laws will be enacted and which will be repealed. According to Yungbluth, “when a law is restrictive, it will be struck from the books. If it is protective, it will be extended to include men.” The ERA would, for example, make it possible for widowers to receive the same Social Security benefits now received by widows; alimony would be awarded according to ability to pay (thus making it possible for men as well as women to receive alimony); and women would be able t< \ Page ten .

Unequal protection The allegation put forth by Operation Wake-up that the ERA is unnecessary, adding nothing to women’s rights, is a distortion of the truth, ERA advocates maintain Although women can get equal pay through the 1964 Civil Rights Act, and the 1972 Employment Opportunity Act, these acts fail to cover women in small companies which don’t have federal contracts and don't deal in interstate commerce. In addition, under current laws, the burden of proof is a woman feels she has been discriminated against, she becomes involved in a long and tedious process in court, and even if she wins, it is only one individual victory. The ERA would place the burden of proof on the state, and provide basic constitutional protection for everyone. Under the ERA, state-supported schools would be required to admit students and distribute scholarship funds without regard to sex. Employment, pay and promotion would also have to be based on factors other than sex. Women would be subject to jury service and military service under the same circumstances as men. Women with children in their personal care would be excused, just as men are. A woman volunteering for military service will have to be admitted under the same standards as men. Presently, according to the Citizen’s Advisory Council on the Status of Women, they have to meet higher standards. On November 4, voters will gb to the polls to determine whether or not the Equal Rights Amendment will be added to the New York State Constitution. Yungbluth feels one of the best things about the amendment is that it will go into effect on January 1, on the individual. If 1976. �by Amy Dunkin Editor-in-Chief Traditional American Striving for identity women in history history paints a very pristine picture of the women’s role. While it has given us a few wholesome heroines, like Betsy Ross and Florence Nightingale, mostly it tells about the good wives, mothers, and sisters who stayed in the home while their men went out to fight the wars, earn the bread, and build the country. (women’s] history has become an “Our anecdote, thrown in for amusement between the lengthy descriptions; 6f men’s accomplishments. Morison’s Oxford History of the American People, for example, gives the women’s suffrage movement a scant few sentences under i section on ‘Bootlegging and other sports’,” says Debby Woodroofe in her article, “American Feminism, 1848-1920.” Too many men and women still believe that the women’s liberation movement is a 20th century phenomenon, an offshoot of the Vietnam war protests and anti-racist sturggles which arose in the 1960’s. The political climate of those years certainly did its share to heighten the awareness of women against all forms of injustice. But women throughout our history were fighting for freedom from bondage, the right to organize, for protective legislation, decent wages, and equal opportunities way before the United States even heard of Indochina. The notion that a woman’s place is in the home” is merely a myth that history would have us believe. “ Sojourner Truth Early activism The founding members of the women’s rights movement were active in the struggle to abolish slavery, in the early 1800’s. In fact, two black women, Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth, were among the most courageous and militant resisters of oppression of women and slaves. Born a slave, Harriet Tubman was only 14 when she first helped a slave escape. After fleeing to the North at the age of 29, Tubman continually risked her life to free her people in the South, leading over 300 slaves to the North and Canada on the “underground railroad” and staging armed attacks on Confederate troops during the Civil War. The slaves referred to her as “Moses.” The slaveowners put a price of $40,000 on her head. Sojourner Truth worked over 40 years for an end to slavery. As she traveled throughout the North organizing anti-slavery associations, she had to stand up to reactionaries who tried to silence her both because she was black and because she was a woman. "That man over there say that a woman needs to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helped me into carriages, or over mud puddles, or And ain 7 / a woman? gives me a best place “Look at my arm.

And ain 7 / a woman? ... ... “I have horned thirteen children and seen them most all sold into slavery. And when I breid out with And ain’t a mother’s grief, none but Jesus heard I a woman 7 ... ’’ Sojourner Truth Speech before the Women’s Rights Convention at Akron, Ohio in 1851 Factory women Concurrent with the flourishing of slavery in the South was the development of industry in the North. The new class of factory owners depended on women to operate their power looms, spinning jennies, and other machines. Needless to say, working conditions were unsafe and intolerable and women workers were paid pittance for over 60 hours of work a week. The first all-woman strike of factory workers took place in December 1828 in a Dover, New Hampshire cotton mill, when 300-400 women walked off their jobs to demand the right to form a union. Names like Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott are usually mentioned just in passing, if at all, in history textbooks. Yet these women were the "foremothers” of American history, advocating militant tactics in the struggle for women’s rights and suffrage. It was Mott and Stanton who, in 1848. organized the first women’s rights convention in Seneca Falls, New York. The convention, which launched the suffrage movement, attracted over 300 men and women from a fifty mile radius. Stanton described it as “the first organized protest against the iryustice which had brooded for ages over the character and destiny of half the race.” In addition to adopting a list of demands, which included equal access to education and the professions, legal rights in marriage, the right to own property, initiate court suits, and control one’s wages, participants in the conference drafted one of the most famous documents in American feminism. The Declaration of Sentiments, modeled after the Declaration of Independence, expressed the same claim for basic and inalienable rights. “The history Of mankind is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations on the part of man toward woman, having in direct'object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over her,” it stated. Some progress The mid-1800’s was a period of expanding consciousness of the part of women. This was accompanied by increased educational opportunities (Oberlin College, the first to admit women, graduated it$ first female in 1841 and many of the “Seven Sisters” colleges opened during this period), involvement in social reform, and the realiziation that a woman’s existence could be independent ol her husband’s. Stanton, Anthony, and Lucy Stone continued to lead the fight for women’s suffrage in the form ot a proposed amendment to the Constitution up until the early 1900’s, despite hostility and outrage on the part of many men and women and a split in the suffrage movement itself. In 1869, two opposing groups were formed. The American Woman’s Suffrage Association (AWSA). centered in Boston and headed by Henry Ward Beecher, Lucy Stone and Julia Ward Howe (author of the Battle Hymn of the Republic) sought to delay the fight for a woman’s suffrage amendment until black suffrage was passed. The National Woman’s Suffrage Association (NWSA), based in New York and led by Anthony and Stanton, excluded men from its membership, and devoted its energies to getting a 16th amendment enfranchising women. The National saw woman’s rights as a broad question involving “the emancipation from all political, industrial, social and - religious subjection,” according to Anthony. Their newspaper. The Revolution, attacked all forms ot discrimination against women. The NWSA was also the first group to challenge the family institution. “Marriage has always been a one-sided matter, resting most unequally on the sexes. By it man gains all; woman loses all; tyrant law and lust reign supreme with him; meek submission and ready obedience alone benefit her . . . Woman has never been thought of other than as a piece of property, to be disposed of at the will and pleasure of man,”- said Anthony. She herself chose to remain single in her lifetime. Support for suffrage The first victories for women’s suffrage werewon in Wyoming and Utah in 1890 while they were still territories. Colorado and Idaho followed in 1893 and 1896, but between 1896 and 1910, no. other states accepted suffrage. In 1890, however, the AWSA and NWSA resolved their 20 year breach and reunited as the National American Woman’s Suffrage Association (NAWSA). Contrary to belief, the women’s suffrage movement was not strictly a middle-class struggle, but was equally supported by working women. On March 8, 1908, for example, women garment workers marched through New York City’s lower East Side protesting sweatship conditions and demanding the vote. This day was later proclaimed International Women’s Day by German socialist Clara Zetkin. The 19th amendment for women’s suffrage was finally passed in 1920, terminating over 70 years and generations three of ardent fighting. With materialization of their long-awaited victory, the NAWSA changed its name to the League of Women Voters and began encouraging women to register and educating them about candidates. The Woman’s Party also campaigned for further legal rights for women, especially their right to guardianship of their children. And now Meanwhile, throughout the 20th century, working women have continually participated in protests and strikes for protective laws, higher wages, improving job Conditions, and reducing work hours. The 1960’s and I970’s have added many more demands to the list, such as child care, abortion, equal access to jobs, and equal pay. Additionally, women have fought alongside men on many political and social issues. The new women’s liberation movement has inspired a deeper awareness and radicalization among women. But that is not to say characteristics did not exist among that these women in the past. Textbook history has tended to focus on the achievements of men, relegating the woman’s place to one of secondary importance. Yet on the contrary, women have played a just as active and important role in history as men and it is the responsibility of concerned, educated people to reread history the way it really happened. note: Most of the historical information in this article was taken from "American Feminism 1848-1920" by Debby Woodroofe and What Have Women Done, A Photo Essay on Working Women in the United States by the San Francisco Women’s History Group.

By this we mean that women have historically been denied the power to control our own is oppression Women’s lives. institutionalized through structures of employment, the family, mass media, the educational system, mental institutions, religion, homes for the aged, prisons, health care, and welfare. These institutions serve to lock women into socially powerless roles, to instill in us the values that justify and support the dominant power realtionships in our society, and to penalize us when we do not stay in our places. It is not simply a matter of discrimination against individuals. Our oppression is social in nature; the conditions that cause it are societal conditions and women are oppressed as a Editor’s note: The following statement is a position paper of Women ’s Studies College (WSC) regarding tyke issue of all-women's classes in its cupieutuirt It wa* written by the Publicity Committeeof the College and presents an alternative opinion to the one expressed by Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg in the Thursday, September 25th issue of the Reporter. WSC will hold a rally on Wednesday, October 15, to elaborate further on these issues. ' Five of the courses in Women’s Studies College’s (WSC) 20-30 course curriculum are all-women’s classes. The State University at Buffalo’is now challenging the existence of these classes; President Robert Ketter has stated that the current semester is the last time they will be offered for women only. This document explains why the all-female classes are integral to the program of Women’s Studies College | why the administration is challenging them, and why their rentention does nof violate, but rather fulfills, the spirit of the law. the background All-women’s classes are an integral and indispensible part of a program that has received nationwide recognition for its contribution to the growing body of knowledge in women’s studies and the women’s movement. Through our research and practice during the past five years, WSC has determined that women-only classes constitute an effective mode for combatting discrimination and enabling women to participate fully in this society. If the University is sincere in its group. Women-only classes: • r-H > 03 Oh C/5 <L> C/5 commitment to meaningful education for women, such classes must be preserved. In the Fall of 1974, when the existence of our single-sex classes was threatened by the administration, women students fought for their continuation. The College held rallies, instituted a petition drive that collected more than 4000 signatures, and held meetings with the administration. As a result of this pressure, Ketter approved the selective use of all women’s classes when it could be proved that their remaining for women only was essential to their educational purpose. This was to be demonstrated through regular academic channels. Throughout the Spring of 1975, we worked to provide the required educational rationales for the five courses being offered to women only. When they were explained to the Curriculum Committee of the Division of Undergraduate Education, all overwhelmingly courses were five “Women in These courses are approved. Contemporary Society,” (in both day school and Millard Fillmore versions), “Women in Photography,” “Art Studio,” and “Women’s Automotive Course.” Since June 1975, the administration has attempted to rescind its original acceptance of this selective use of single-sex classes. During the summer, while most students and faculty were away, the administration issued an ultimatum that we eliminate women-only classes by August 15th or be closed down. Although that deadline was lifted with the help of widespread support both on and off campus, we now face a new deadline and a new ultimatum. Their present position is based on the allegation that WSC’s five all-women’s classes are not in compliance with the sex discrimination law as delineated in Title IX regulations. We have seen from the administration’s actions that its concern for ending discrimination has not extended CO i Page fourteen * Institutionalized oppression leads to imbalances of power between men and women based on social and economic inequities. Class society not only creates the conditions for the different social realities of men and women, but places different social and economic values on them. Historically, men’s experiences are recognized, while the experiences of women are negated. For example, men are expected to be the breadwinners, women to bear and raise the children and maintain a household. Only the former is considered a “job,” with the financial and social compensation earned by “work” in our devaluation of society. The repeated women’s experiences is so deep-rooted that most people, men and women alike, neither recognize nor understand the social not extended beyond WSC to the rest of the University..Moreover, there The University has perpetuated these inequities in its neglect of women’s life realities, past and present. Traditional education ignores the serious study of the challenges It neither women. stereotyped images of women, nor analyzes the contradiction between these images and reality. This neglect of women in strengthens the curriculum implicity dominant cultural view of women as passive, dependent, unintelleclual and unable to analyze our position in society. Education has not taught women the fulness of our history and culture. It has not taught women the skills necessary for a critical understanding of how society operates. And it has not taught women to transform our consciousness into a creative cultural force. Traditional education does not provide an analysis of society that acknowledges the totality of human experience, because it excludes the realities of women, working-class, gay and third world peoples. We must therefore create forms of education to redress the effects of past oppression, to meet our needs as women, and, thereby, to enhance the full participation of all people in society. All-women’s classes WSC’s five classes for women only are directly aimed at the neglected' realities of women, and the need to develop a social analysis that encompasses the diversity of womcp’s lives. It is imperative to recognize that the five all-women’s classes grew out of our practice. In our research and study, in our teaching experience, and in the course of running a college committed to finding the root causes of women’s oppression, we have learned that it is counter-productive to grant, men equal access to these five courses. beyond WDC to the rest of the University.

The Spectrum Wednesday, 8 October 1975 . . development of social analyses of these experiences, and the barriers to fulfilling goals for change in a sexist society. By contrast, we have found that those courses whose subject matter makes the students’ own historical experience less central are less likely to be impeded by the presence of male students. The history and practice of 213/214, “Women in Contemporary fullness of our history and culture. It has not taught women the skills educational goals and The limited male 'participation. fundamental goal of this course is to connect women’s personal experience with the social context and historical roots from which it develops. Our past experience indicates that this integration is obstructed in coed classes. The subject of rape is one graphic illustration of how this happens. In the bontext of a women’s class, it is possible to move from the discussion of the personal meaning of rape (ranging from actual experience to the pervasive fear many women harbor) to an analysis of the social origins and significance of the phenomenon of rape. When treated in mixed classes, by contrast, the subject aroused defensiveness on the part of men, and reticence on the part of women. It proved difficult to move past the “rap session” to serious social and intellectual considerations. There are two basic and related aspects, then, to our rationale for limited male participation. Men have little to contribute to the exploration of women’s life realities because they have not experienced them. Secondly, male presence in a class focused on women’s experiences has destructive effects. It leads, at best, to a lot of defensive, unproductive argument about the nature of women’s experiences and, at worst, to the silence of women. We must recognize that sexist power relations and the stereotypes born of them exist in society at large. These are recreated in the classroom to the detriment of an educational process designed to redress the effects of this facet of women’s oppression. Both the form and the content of certain classes are inhibited by a male that reproduces the power presence differential between men and women in our society. We have seen this in hierarchical and competitive forms of interaction that are detrimental to women’s participation. Our practice is further supported by a growing body of scholarly sociological and psychological research that explores the pervasiveness of sexist power relations in group interaction. In general, these studies find that women perform more effectively in an all-female mixed environment. context than Reverse discrimination We understand that many people who are sincerely committed to the elimination of sex discrimination feel that all-women’s classes constitute reverse discrimination against men. They consider it ironic that a group dedicated, as we are, to ending sexism, practice should such discrimination. We maintain that reverse discrimination cannot and does not exist in this society. “Reverse discrimination” as a the institutionalized concept negates of women, third word, oppression working-class and gay people. It implies that our society allows for equal and quality access economically and to women socially, politically, but that sometimes it makes a few mistakes. Hence, discrimination against women. To follow this argument, then, “mistakes” may be made in the reverse (against men). Hence, reverse discrimination. In fact, sex discrimination in our society has not been applied randomly sometimes striking women, sometimes men. Discrimination on the basis of sex historically has meant discrimination gainst women, and legislation prohibiting sex discrimination is intended to benefit women. The notion of discrimination describes a situation where a group is excluded from power or privilege. It can be — meaningly practiced, therefore, only by groups that possess social power or privilege. Even when legislation is enacted to redress the historic oppression of women and third world people, that does not mean that these people gain control of social institutions. At best, they win increased potential; they do not secure power Affirmativeaction In recent years, through the efforts of movements, Third World and women’s have been action programs affirmative instituted to compensate for past and oppression within institutions corporations ihat receive federal funds. discrimination on The law that the basis of sex is Statute 1681. Title IX of the Education Act of 1972, which prohibits sex discrimination in education, specifically allows for the development of affirmative action programs, doing so in the spirit of ending discrimination against women. Section 86.3 (b) states: Affirmative Action. In the absence of prior activity, a “ recipient may take affirmative action to overcome the effects of conditions which resulted is limited participation therein by persons of a particular sex. This section conditions exist that in the limit women’s participation dominant society and that it is permissible to set up programs that attempt to change the conditions themselves, as well as the effects of these conditions. The statement does not place any limits on what may be done, nor does it define what is acknowledges that appropriate. The spirit of Title IX is to end discrimination against women. The way that it attempts to do this is to prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex, to require remedial action, and to suggest affirmative action. Evidence that the intent of Title IX is to work for the benefit of women is found in the Women’s Educational Equity Act of 1974; “The Congress hereby finds and declares that educational programs in the United States (including its possessions), as previously conducted, are frequently inequitable as such programs relate to women and frequently limit the full participation of all individuals in America.” (Sec. 408 [b) (1J) and “It is the purpose of this section to provide educational equity for women in the U.S.” (Sec. 408 [bl [2]). This clearly indicates that Congress, the body, recognizes that it is who have been discriminated against in education.' It also indicates that something can and should be done for women. Affirmative action can be implemented in a number of ways, but not all of these ways will work for real change in the education of women. One view of affirmative action involves the possibility of opening . existing institutions to women with no provision for changing these institutions to meet women’s needs. For example, at Yale, a legislative women sex-segregated university, traditionally undergraduate women were first admitted six years ago. Now, women undergraduates have realized that “access” to an essentially unaltered educational structure does not provide them with a quality education, one that will help them understand their own situation, and they are demanding a women’s studies program. History has shown that posting a sign stating tuat “women are admitted” without changing the education that takes place behind that door, does not mean that an educational institution has changed qualitatively to redress past discrimination against women. Those who have' argued against women-only classes have not offered educational arguments, or have even stated that equal access has nothing to do with the content of courses. We think that this does violence to the idea of education itself. If “access” is reduced to an arithmetical or geographical concept, then equity to education cannot be achieved. It is for these reasons that we must take broader steps in order for real affirmative action to occur. All-women’s classes are the product of this broader view of affirmative action. It has been proved through the practice of Women’s Studies College that they foster a climate in which women’s social realities can play a creative part in shaping the form and content of institutions. The atmosphere of an all-women’s class enables women to develop a critical analysis of women’s the positions in society, as well leadership skills that allow women full participation in their education and that ultimately make it possible to apply what they learn to all aspects of their lives. & �Women’s sports: can society ever accept it? advised by Jay Clark Staff Writer violence, Spectrum “A bright woman is caught in a double bind. In testing and in other achievement-oriented situations, she worries not only about failure, but also about success. If she fails, she is not living up to her own standards of performance; if she succeeds, she is not living up to societal expectations about the female role.” No where is this quote, by Martina Horner, president of Radcliffe College, more applicable than in sports. Although Title IX and other legislation designed to equalize men’s and women’s sports has helped, society still has a long way to go before it can completely accept the female athlete. In the early 1900’s, women’s sports flourished. There were extensive programs in basketball, tennis, swimming and other sports. Men’s and women’s basketball teams often played doubleheaders first the women’s team, then the men’s. In 1923, a national committee was formed to investigate doubleheaders. The committee, headed by Mrs. Herbert Hoover, was shocked to discover that the women wore athletic costumes while performing in front of men. They recommended that it be stopped, and state after state followed their advice by abolishing women’s sports, or making them “more ladylike.” - Too fragile During the Thirties and Forties, women were considered too fragile for athletic competition. In 1931-32, the Delta State University women’s basketball team had three forwards and three guards. The forwards were confined to one half of the court, the guards to the other. The team played seven-minute quarters, and the players were only allowed to bounce the ball twice at a time when dribbling. The following year, the team was abolished because the sport was too “strenuous” for ladies. Marie Therese Eyquem, a French physical educator, in an address to the International Congress on the Physical Education of Girls and Women in 1949, stated that, “Woman is destined by nature for maternity,” and ... women to give up sports “which might cause or repercussions upon her internal organism,” such as catch, football, bicycling, racing and sluing. As the feminist movement began to grow, women realized they weren’t as delicate as they were told, and they began to disprove some of society’s myths about women and sports. When people argued that violent sports might damage a woman’s child-bearing organs, feminists pointed out that the uterus is one of the most shock-resistent organs in the body, and that athletic women, on the average, have a shorter period of labor and few cesarean sections than non-athletic womep. Bulging muscles? Girls who worried that participation in sports would lead to bulging muscles were told that because women have more body fat and secrete less androgen than men, they are less likely to develop bulding muscles. Opponents also said that girls’ sports didn’t attract many fans, and therefore wasn’t worth the investment. However, they we e quickly told that the Iowa State Girl’s High School Basketball Championship in the Veteran’s Memorial Auditorium in Des Moines invariably sold out. During the five-day tournament, as many as 85,000 people watched the girls play. Another five to six million people watch the' games on television. Wayne Cooley, chief executive of the Iowa girls program, stated, “There is no reason why girls’ events can’t draw well if they are intelligently staged.” Title IX In 1972, Congress passed the Education Amendments Act. Title IX of the act, which covers 16,000 public schools and 2700 colleges, decreed that schools must provide the funds necessary to insure equal opportunity for women who wish to participate in sports. Although it didn’t specify that schools must match the men’s and w'omen’s programs dollar for dollar, Title IX drew strong protests for the traditionalists in the sports world, like one official from the National Collegiate Athletic Association, who feared that it “may well signal the end of intercollegiate athletic programs as we have known them in recent decades.” Women’s sports enjoyed a boom year in 1973. Inspired by professional athletes, such as "tennis great Billie Jean King and amateur stars like gymnast Olga Korbut, girls all over the country became interested in sports for the first time. Although Title IX wasn’t scheduled to go into effect until 1975, many colleges increased funds for women’s athletic programs dramatically in response to the increased demands. Is nothing sacred? Even the Little League, once the hallowed ground of little boys only, got into the act when a New Jersey court ordered the Ridgefield Boys Athletic Organization to allow 11-year old shortstop, Frences Descatore, to play. Letting girls play in the Little League caused more furor than the burning of the bras a few years eariier. “It just wouldn’t be proper for coaches to pat girls on the rear end the way they naturally do boys,"’ said Creighton Hale, president of the Little League. “And suppose a girl gets hurt on the leg? Why, that’s just not some grown man rubbing a little girl’s going to go over — leg.” Although some attitudes have changed, most female athletes still have to put up with the notion that they’re not as good as their male counterparts, or that they’re not feminine, or that boys won’t like them. A woman athlete, in order to win, has to overcome not only her opponent, but herself as well, because society has made her believe that she shouldn’t win. Jack Griffin, an Olympic coach who has worked with both sexes, believes that women have at least one advantage over men. “Any girl or woman who is very much involved in athletics tends to have an extraordinary amount of desire, not only to excel in her sport, but to excel as a person. It is so common with girls that we tend to overlook it, accepting it as normal. I suppose that in a sense it is normal for them. The way things are in this country, any girl who perseveres in sport has to be not only an exceptional athlete, but an exceptional human being.” The saga of the American housewife by Linda Muller As little as 15 years ago, a housewife a woman who was married to her house. Her duties ranged from feeding the dog and the goldfish to making sure everything was neat and in order because that was the thing a woman was supposed to do. As soon as the wedding band was slipped on her finger, she became the sole property of her husband. She was expected to present him with three to four children, the first being born within the first year of marriage, and of course, that child was to be a boy. The was father’s namesake. The wife was not expected to hold down a job outside of the home 24-hour-a-day because her fulltime job was taking care of the house and raising the children. The husband acted as the supervisor. Her fringe benefits were dish-pan hands, rough elbows and califlower ears. The ears probably the gruelling resulted from conversations at Martha’s house during the coffee clotch.

I am not his property, and he is not mine. We are sharing our lives together and that’s what it’s all plans 2. sex transfer 3. fight for equal rights. Thank God the majority of women choose option 3. Now if a woman decides she wants the kind of life that’s fine, well, aforementioned, because she chooses it to be that way. But, on the other hand, if it’s not someone else’s cup of tea, they have the right to seek a different lifestyle. A few examples are in order. 1) It is no longer a standard procedure to “turnout” a child after the first year of marriage, and also the number of children being born has declined. Four years ago, the cry was at two” now it’s “stop zero-population growth. 2) Couples are waiting to have children. They are interested in learning about themselves as individuals and also as partners in marriage. When they believe the time is right they plan their family together. I would like to use myself to illustrate this point. My husband and I have been married four years and we have no children yet. In the beginning of our marriage, we decided that travel and education were our utmost considerations. These things — A woman can make of her marriage what she wants, and what her husband wants. Roles and standard beliefs of the past are being changed. It is not a freak site to see a husband helping with chores, cooking and shopping. It is also common practice for a woman to have a job outsfde the home. Husbands are realizing that being a father is a lot more than the act of conception. They are helping to bring up their children rather than over-viewing their biological - growth. Marriage need not be a stale and degrading institution. It can be a time of self-growth and understanding. exciting and Marriage has many challenging possibilities. Again, I would like to use myself as an example. I view myself as having many distinct components in my makeup. To name a few, I am: 1) woman; 2) wife; 3) 4) student; lover; 5) cook; 6) 8) accountant; philosopher; 7) economist; 9) consumer; 10) arbitrator / and many more. More important, 1 am me, the person 1 want to be. I am not chained or strangled by marriage. 1 am free to grow I , t K • about. In closing, each one of us has the power to decide what is right and what is wrong for our personal well-being. We have the potential to be what we want. We have the power and the strength to shape our lives and to achieve those goals that we established for ourselves. We must be brave to take the challenge. As Shakespeare said, “To be, or not to be; that is the question.” 8 Qctpber 1975 . The Spectrum . Page fifteen 1 �Journalism takes on new look by Terry Koler Spectrum Staff Writer traditionally male-oriented field of journalism has tended to stick by the axioms that no “girl” can tell it like Walter Cronkite or write it like Seymour Hirsch. Female reporters were generally assigned to “women’s features” and midday news shows, while their male counterparts covered the hardcore news. However, things have begun to change in the news world and women whose reporting abilities were once limited to interviewing the President’s wife are now interviewing the President himself. Shana Alexander, a former columnist for Newsweek now writes special commentaries in magazines across the nation. Melba Tolliver started as a lowly secretary in the front office of Channel 7 Eyewitness News in New York City. Today she is the associate producer for Eyewitness News as well as the weekend anchorwoman. And of course there’s Barbara Walters whose acid tongue has made her one of the most coveted and controversial figures in the industry. The , Professionalism Although there has been noticeable progress, women are still working hard to persuade their bosses that they can cope with any story as well as the men. Professionalism and indignation forced 37 female employees of the Washington Post’s editorial staff to present the editors with a the daily four-page statement accusing of discrimination Washington newspapers in against women. They objected to the placement of stories about women’s rights on the women’s page “dumping ground.” They also charged Washington newspaper editors with denying many assignments to female reporters simply because of their sex, without even considering their competency. Time magazine was also the target of accusations of blatant discrimination by female staff members. The tnagazine at first denied the charges, but subsequently corrected the situation. When a motorcycle gang was terrorizing a New York community in early seventies, Lucille Rich of WCBS-TV in New York City insisted on the assignment, despite strong taking protestations by the news director. Her perseverance, however, turned into one “hell of a top notch reporting job,” as the news director later observed. Now she is assigned storied on a no-questions asked basis. In Newark, New Jersey, Gloria Rojas waded into the middle of a fist fight on a picket line. In the Watts area of Los Angeles, Gail Christian roams the rat-infested tenements. In New York, Pia Lindstrom burroughs through a pitch dark subway interviewing passengers trapped by a power failure. In Honolulu, Hawaii, Linda Coble delves into the doings of the local mobsters. Tough Other women journalists were working as much as 20 years ago to be the best in the business. In 1953, NBC assigned Pauline Frederick to cover events occuring at the United Nations, a very prestigious role for a woman reporter. “It’s just another step in the acceptance of women,” she commented at the time. Jane Howard spent six years trying to get first article published in Life Magazine . After her her initial publication, all of her subsequent stories were published. Elizabeth Brenner Drew worked out of Washington. In a year and a half, she established a reputation of solid reporting on everything from public housing to auto safety. Her tools: a serious mind and diligent research to make up the the lack of breaks. Betsy Halstead was the first reporter to witness and photograph a B-52 raid during the Vietnam War. She was also the first to interview the mayor of Danang after former Premier Ky called him a Communist and erroneously announced that he fled the city. Many news editors today admit that women reporters have certain advantages over their male colleagues. “Women can be equally aggressive but they also have a sympathetic quality and an ability to get right to the human angle,” a Detroit news director boasted. Connie Chung of Washington’s WTTG put the woman reporter’s point of view into its proper perspective: “I hate fashion stories. Give me a tear-gas rock throwing riot anytime.” Attitudes toward Middle East women conservative husband’s consent, add if she does violate this right, she is not entitled to financial support. by Fredda Cohen Feature Editor The status of women is changing slowly in the Middle East. Yet despite numerous reforms in the urban areas, most Moslem women must submit to their husbands’ every whim. In fact, religious men have no choice but to dominate “their” women. The Koran explicitly states: “As for those from whom you fear disobedience admonish and banish them to beds apart and beat them.” Women’s joles vary widely in different parts of the Middle East. The most liberated women are those that live in the urban areas, receiving the best and highest education. Women who lead a tribal existence are much more limited in their daily practices. The most extreme examples of oppression are found in peninsular Arabia, parts of the Sudan, and other desert locations where tradition is highly revered. Women live in seclusion, under the “ten prohibitons of menstruation,” which forbid the rights to pray, fast, circumambulate holy places, read or touch the Koran, go near the mosque, freely have sexual contacts, or divorce. Husband’s exclusive rights These desert women are usually veiled and heavily gowned, although no where in the Koran is it stated that women must be veiled. While Western culture has greatly influenced Egypt, the Koran still is held as the highest source of law regarding family relations. The majority attitude toward yeomen in public and private life still remains fairly conservative, claims Safia Mohsen, Assistant Professor at the State University of New York at Binghamton. The marriage contract grants the husband exclusive rights over his wife’s sexual activities, while he is permitted to have as many as four wives. The right of obedience belongs only to the husband. A woman * may leave her without her house husband’s permission only to visit immediate relatives. She is prohibited from working or going to school without her Page sixteen reason In Egypt, custody of the children is given to the mother until they reach a set age, usually seven for boys and nine for girls. After this time, custody is granted to the father, regardless of the childrens’ best interest or father’s ability. Despite the restrictive pages of the Koran, women’s rights have increased somewhat, and this development can be traced to as early as 1873, when Rifa’s El Tahtawi, an Egyptian woman, pressed for the education of women. - — Development of women’s rights The movement was further strengthened when Qasim home. Amin, author of The New Woman argued for the removal of the veil because it degraded women. He also insisted on Long way to go In Turkey, women and men may inherit equally, but the separation of religious and secular life, with legal women usually forfeit their share.

The Spectrum Wednesday, 8 October 1975 . . “I divorce thee” In cases of divorce, the husband need only say, “1 divorce thee,” in the presence of a witness. Within a period of three months, during which a woman cannot remarry, he can take her back. A woman must obtain a court decision to divorce her husband, and the legal grounds that are prescribed to obtain the divorce are steep. One of these provisions is “absence of husband for more than a year without good By the late 1950’s, higher education was accepted by middle and upper class families. “At the present time, attitudes are not too different from those of the 50’s,” writes Mohsen. “It is true that university education has become an acceptable pattern for gainful women in Egypt. It is also true that work employment for women has also been accepted because of the increase in the cost of living, which requires the cooperation of husband and wife to support a family.” Men, however, tend to seek uneducated women -s marriage partners, she contends. Marriages are usually “arranged” in the more traditional families, but this practice is being slightly altered among liberal families, where the choice is given to both the men and women involved. In Lebanon, most of the Moslem population live in rural villages. They are mainly monogamous and live in nuclear homes. Education is compulsory for all people up to the age of sixteen, and many women work in the health-related fields outside of their own villages. However, when the woman returns home, she is cast away from her husband’s social life. Her salary is handed over to her husband, and she strictly adheres to the code of modesty in receiving strangers who might enter her �Erie County Penitentiary The grim reality of women in prisons: It makes you hard ’ ‘ by Dana Dubbs Staff Writer Spectrum “Prison makes you hard. It makes you not want to trust anybody. You see who’s your friends and who’s not your friends. You find out who cares by the visits and the mail.” For some, these words are part of a vague idea of what prison is all about. For others, like Debbie, who spent six months in the Erie County Penitentiary followed by seven months in the Raybrook these Center, Rehabilitation words are part of a grim reality. According to Debbie (not her real name), “You wake up at six, eat breakfast, and lockup till eight. Then you clean, shower, eat lunch at eleven-thiry, then lockup again for rest hour. Then there’s shifts, you’re unlocked for dinner, and after dinner you’re locked in the cellblock.” The American prison system as we know it was begun in the early nineteenth century in New York who believed in by men “reformation.” However, it was not until the 1920’s that women’s prisons were created, also as a reform measure. A sentenced woman was thought to be a disgrace, for she had violated the moral and social code of her sex. This attitude is still reflected today by the fact that in many states, women sentenced under discriminatory statutes are given longer sentences than men. to women is prostitution Many people believe that it is harder for a woman to adjust to prison than a man. The psychological needs of men and women are very different. Men in prison often worry about the inability to support their families, and the effects of a criminal record on future job seeking efforts. Prison families A woman, on the other hand, suffers more from the separation family and the from her roles. This is of familial disruption reflected by the way family situations are created inside “Families” women’s prisons. consist of mothers, fathers, grandmothers, brothers, sisters, etc. The “family” provides an emotional, economic, and social support for the woman in prison. Homosexual relationships also provide support for women, and alleviate depersonalization. A woman confined to a unisex environment still has all the feelings, emotions, and needs she had on the outside. In prison, the life becomes more intense and the and affection need for identification is much greater. Utilizing inmate labor, many prisons have become multi-million dollar piofiteers. Clothing for patients in state hospitals and state schools, road signs, license plates, state park benches and tables are a few of the products made by inmates who, in many prisons, receive no pay at all.

The Spectrum . Page seventeen ’ �Hollywood adding more realism in the motion picture industry by Randi Schnur Arts Editor “Whores, quasi-whores, jilted mistresses, emotional cripples, drunks. Daffy ingenues, Lolitas, kooks, sex-starved spinsters, psychotics. Icebergs, zombies, and ballbreakers. That’s what little girls of the sixties and seventies are made of.” ‘“Nowadays, Hollywood has an incredibility problem,’ the New York Times suggested not long ago. ‘There isn’t a young romantic star unreal enough to thrill us, just a rotating stock of earthbound boys and girls who are no longer required to have their noses bobbed, their teeth fixed, or lifts put in their shoes’.” If the wish for a return to the “romance” of the star system implied in the words of the Time's criticquoted above by Marjorie Rosen in her recent volume Popcorn Venus: Women, Movies and the and sinde the American Dream is to be accepted observations of Village Voice critic Molly Haskell which here precede that wish (written down, incidentally, by a woman) cannot easily be discounted then our first question must be: “What, indeed, is reality? — - — — (1936) ; — — - — At home with the boys What does the Pacino of Scarecrow need with a woman having skipped out on at least one already while he’s got Gene Hackman to protect him? Even Jack Nicholson fares far better and seems infinitely more satisfied showing off his store of carnal knowledge to Art Garfunkel than in the company of any more “appropriate” partner. Hollywood women, on the other hand, are only occasionally allowed to turn their backs on the American dream of home, husband, and harebrains in favor of a more personal dream. Even when they can witness again, Burstyn’s Alice they are allowed “fulfillment” only in the arms of yet another man, even if he is the eminently sensitive and artistic Kris Kristofferson. It is certainly ironic that, after years of that “mammary worship” which, however unconsciously, glorified the image of woman-as-lifegiver the more life she looked like she could give, the faster men’s we should emerge into a heads swiveled around more “enlightened” decade to find our heroines - — Woman — — was created from the rib of man She was not made from his head to top him nor from his feet'— to be trampled on - She was made from his sid» to be equal to him from under his arm to be protected by him from near his heart to be loved by him. — - — A non yntous Page eighteen . The Spectrum . Wednesday, 8 October 1975 perhaps the ideal screen relationship? intelligent roles for women in contemporary movies are about as common as theatres currently running Scenes from a Marriage: we suspect that they must be around somewhere, but they’re damned difficult to find. To quote Haskell once again: “When 'female softness, sensitivity, passivity were qualities' exaulted in the post-Brando hero and in the rock/anti-war ethic of the counterculture, it did not bring about a corresponding exaultalion of woman, but, on the contrary, a diminution of her role as the new movie hero appropriated her qualities without losing his place at the center of the stage.” The new “hero” can make himself every bit as acceptable acting the little-boy-lost who doesn’t quite know yet what to do with a woman, as in the role of the macho superman who is past needing to know. (In fact, the same actor often alternates between variations of the two sometimes even a during one movie, as Al Pacino does in Serpico practice unheard-of while star-system stratification was in effect. — Separate realities If it is something painful and ugly, then Gena Rowlands’ pathetic breakdown in A Woman Under the Influence exemplifies it; if it is thin, tenuous, and more than a little bit sentimental, then> Ellen Burstyn lives there in Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore or could it be hidden under the squeaky-clean coiffures of the kookily ball-breaking quasi-whores of Shampool (God, no!) Really — — actualizing their lives by the grace of the newly feminized male. Once upon a time ... Perhaps the only £ra of American film history in which women as shown on screen were really “free” allowed to be both sexual (as opposed strongly opposed to merely “sexy”) and intelligent came during the early thirties, after the advent of sound gave them the opportunity to speak their minds and before the Hays Office’s Production Code cancelled out much of the content of those minds. The women of vintage comedies, the Dietrich immortalized by Josef von Sternberg, Jean Harlow, and even Mae West during this period, could afford to be aggressive without risking any slurs on their femininity. Their screen personae truly are, according to Molly Haskell’s invaluable and very readable From Reverence to Rape: The Treatment of Women in the Movies, “so immensely secure in their sexual identities and in the aura of mutual attractiveness that they can afford to play with their roles, reverse them, stray, with the confidence of being able to return to home base.” (This ability would seem to require an equal amount of confidence on the part of their male leads, a sexual self-knowledge different from the forcible appropriation of all sorts of characteristics a pretty aggressive act in itself by the modern actor eager to push women off the screen altogether.) Rumor has it that a special clause in Barbra Streisand’s Columbia contract prohibits the studio from pairing her with any but the most unarguable gorgeous of leading men. Hard to imagine a superstar with that kind of foresight playing around with anything, isn’t it? Even women producers come up with projects like The Sting (an entirely masculine conception all the wky through) and the forthcoming Fear of Flying (hardly the feminist epic it might have been). Female directors seldom offer much more to their actresses than do their male counterparts and those actresses are truly the niggers of the film - - — — - - — industry. �Th$ real problems To the Editor. Those who think that any one side benefited from the recent teachers strike in New York City, obviously have not bothered to look beyond the superficial aspects of the problem, falling instead into the trap of prejudice against the striking public employees exhibited by The New York Times. Perhaps Buffalo isn’t the most appropriate forum from which to discuss the New York City public school system, but New York’s system is indicative of most urban school systems in the United States. The Spectrum's recent editorial on the New York strike contained glaring exaggerations and misinterpretations which serve only to obscure the real problems faced by New York and other cities: It»m: The UFT did not strike for higher salaries, unlike most of the nation’s teachers who walked out this, September (including those in the Buffalo area). Rather, the UFT sought to retain what few adequate teaching conditions have been left after constant financial crises. As it is, with the $30 million in unpaid striking teachers’ salaries saved by the city, a large riumber of teachers who these were laid off may now be re-hired constitute such “peripheral” supportive staff as special ed instructors for handicapped and retarded children, guidance counselors, and school crossing guards (on the first day of school some children were injured at Queens intersection where there had last year been guards to direct them across the street). If the teachers were striking only for money, then why, for the first time in three strikes, did large numbers of parents of schoolchildren join and even initiate picketing at many schools? Item: Class size was one of the more prominent issues, but few realize how really central an issue it is. One teacher I know had 45 students in her first-grade class on the first day of school - before the strike began. Teachers in other schools have encountered similar situations, with students having to sit on radiators and bookshelves. How large were your classes when you were in elementary school? A class of such a large sizt isn’t the system exactly conducive to “education” becomes more of a baby-sitting service. Item; The 90 minutes per week cut from class time in order to maintain teacher prep periods won’t really have such a great impact on the “education” of New York’s children. Anyone can realize that recent years have seen inflation in the form of less class time for the same or more credits, a situation encountered here at our own University. Besides that, teachers need prep periods in order to fulfill time-consuming administrative chores such as making up lesson plans, grading tests, entering information into student files, — preparing bulletin boards, etc. If New York’s teachers have lost their ideal of providing quality education it is not due to any they, like their financial aspirations on their part students have been backed into a corner -by the - financial squeeze, by poor administration on the part of the local community school boards (exemplified in the past by large-scale graft and petty politics in local school board elections) and finally, by poorly directed priorities so as to remedy such problems. All that the teachers have tried to do is retain what few semblances of “education" that still remain. In sum, no one benefited from the strike. Opinions such as those of The Spectrum, which the teachers’ “greed," serve only to distract attention from the real problems faced by the city, its schoolchildren and its teachers, and problems those similarly across the country which will come to fruition in the not-too-distant future if not resolved in the present. emphasize — Charles W Stoller UB Law. 1977 Football is not the answer To the Editor I was disturbed by reading Dave Rubin’s “The Bull Pen,” on Monday, October 6, in which he complained that this University should have an Intercollegiate Football team. There are two ways to deal wit,h his statement: one is a monetary problem# and the'other as a philosophical question. In terms of pure dollars, Mr. Rubin is correct describing the intense interest in Intermural Football. Due to the obvious lack of funds, priorities have to be determined as to where the money should go. It seems much more logical to have 500 students playing intermurals, than ,'0 playing varsity Mr. Rubin also claims that a football team would greatly enhance school spirit, and bring in good publicity for the school. If his idea of building school spirit is by cheering on eleven people trying to kill another eleven, 1 feel sad for his capacity to help improve the “human condition." 1, for one, would rather publicize this University based on its ability to produce students whose abilities and achievements made the world a better place to live, and not on a game which represents a system of aggression and imperalism. Marly Schwartz Ex- Varsity Swimming The wizard's fantasy To the Editor Well, Buffalo sports fans, David J. (Juk) Rubin has done it again. In his fantasy world, the Denver Bronco’s beat the Buffalo Bills this past Sunday. This drops them to 0-3 for the season. I think I am now beginning to understand why he says some of the things he does. You see a Reuben is a sandwich in which sauerkraut plays an important part in making. We all know what sauerkraut does to a person after eating. Well David Rubin is an obvious fart and talks out of his ass so the similarity is amazing. When prediction time is near, he must be high on smoking ground up old N.Y. Jet Superbowl ticket stubs. 1 mean, 1 didn’t know Atlanta or New Orleans were in the AFC Central Division. I thought they were in the WFC. But, of course, if a know-it-all New Yorker says they are, it must be. Boy, does he ever know his football. Finally, it must be nice to be able to have the last word in when someone writes a letter to the editor. I am referring to the note following my last letter which stated O.J. Simpson said the Jets were the team to beat in the AFC Fast. Several Buffalo announcers mentioned the same thing, but put it into perspective. He sayd that about every team every week. It must be nice to drea »i David Eenksa JSU events contributing editor to Commentary To the Editor Himmelfarb, 29, there was an article in The Spectrum by Faith Prince covering the speech by Flie Wiesel. In the article Ms. Prince failed to mention that Wiesel’s appearance was Mr. co-sponsored by the Jewish Student Union (JSU) This year we plan to sponsor such speakers as Midge Decter, author of Liberal Parents, Radical Children, Cynthia Ozick, author and frequent contributor to Commentary and Esquire and many other known magazines, and Lucy Davidovich, author of War Against The Jews. We will also be continuing our film senes, which will start on Oct. 22, with the film Sandra Magazine. On Monday, Sept. and the Student Association Speakers Bureau. Flie Wiesel is just one of the many speakers that the JSU brings in during the year. In the past we have sponsored speakers like Rabbi Meir Kahane founder of the Jewish Defense League and Milton — Steven M. Laub, President Jewish Student Union Female chauvinists To the Editor There is always an element of sexism wherever males and females converge, but when the source of it is from my sisters, it incites me more than a group of (dare I say it), male chauvinist pigs. The incident 1 am referring to is the current crisis between Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg and Women’s Studies College. In the Sept. 29 issue of The Spectrum, it was reported that a statement was issued in draft form a week prior to publication in the Reporter by Spitzberg to members of WSC, warning that it was in great danger of being terminated at the end of this semester if the guarantee against future discriminatory practices are not met. Members of WSC feel “all-women courses are a redress for past discrimination against women in society and that they are not being used as reverse discrimination against men! No matter how I look at that statement, I have to interpret it as an “eye for an eye” type assertion. WSC drew up a seven-page criticism (in conjunction with American Studies Dept.) of Spitzberg’s statement which was published in the Reporter. WSC, according to The Spectrum “were not prepared to release details of their criticisms at press time,” It seems to me that WSC is trying desperately to find ways to “explain” their the University discriminatory actions so that community will tend to sympathize with them which is probably the reason they have taken so long to reply to Spitzberg’s statement. If this issue must turn into an encounter - Invitation to a soccer game between those of us who favor open attitudes and opinions with all women and mankind and those who feel they must be set aside, alienated, placed in shells, whatever, in order to discuss, analyze and probe the physical, psychical and spiritual attributes of one particular sex, I must urge you, females, to see that supporting this discriminatory practice would only serve to hold back your progression, just as men have held back their progression for so long by partaking in similar practices. I also must urge you would not you, men, not to delude yourselves be aiding the Women’s Cause by supporting this To the Editor The last several years has seen a widening of the gap between students and athletics at our University. We think we have something to offer the University and the Buffalo community. Our hope is to play quality soccer and to entertain an appreciative crowd. You’d probably really enjoy yourself watching us play. So come on out to Rotary Field today at 2:45 p.m. and to our other home games, - reactionary rubbish. and see what you think about us. Thanks.

Wednesday, 8 October 1975 Staff Writer Despite a first place finish in the ECAC Qualifying Tournament last Friday, University of Buffalo Golf coach Bill Dando had mixed reactions about his team’s performance at the Colgate tournament “I’m not really satisfied with the team yet,” said Dando. “We’re still playing with some high scores.” Fortunately, in this tourney, the high score is dropped, so Greg Audzel’s 88 didn’t’count in the Bulls’ final total of 326. That score put Buffalo in a tie for first place with Cortland and R1T at the end of the match. Putting on a show The tournament was running close all the way between the three eventual winners, with each team trying to prevent elimination. The turning point of the match for the Bulls came on Mike Hirsch’s 40-foot birdie putt. “He made a fabulous downhill putt. If he didn’t make it we could have been out of it,” commented Dando. A par would have left Buffalo with a 237, one behind the leaders. This proved to be Hirsch’s best effort of the season, and, according to Dando, he did a great job. Championships next For the Bulls to do a great job in the ECAC championships at Doylestown, Pa. on the fifteenth, everyone will have to produce uniformly fine performances. Dando feels that the course at Doylestown is one of the toughest around. The long holes and fast greens must be considered the reasons for last year’s high scores, where a 78 was the tournament low. “If we shoot the way we’re capable of, we could finish first,” said Dando. The Bulls will have two more chances to ready themselves before the finals, with matches against St. John Fisher College and St. Bonaventure University later this week. Both matches will be played at the Audobon course, north of the Amherst Campus, �Niki Lauda ofFerrari places first at Watkins Glen Grand Prix with his car and was far behind the leaders. Lauda had no difficulty lapping his teammate, but Reggazzoni did his best to stop Fittipaldi from by David J. Rubin Sports Editor Twenty-six year-old Austrian Niki Lauda eased pole-to-pole victory last Sunday in the seventeenth annual United States Grand Prix at Watkins Glen. Emerson Fittipaldi finished second in the 200-mile race, trailing Lauda by about five seconds. Jochen Mass, Fittipaldi’s teammate, was to a third. Lauda’s win capped an outstanding year of J racing for himself and for his Ferrari team. After disappointing performances in recent seasons, Ferrari scored six first places in the 1975 Grand Prix series of fourteen races. Five of the firsts were by Lauda, while the other was by his Swiss teammate Clay Reggazzoni. Lauda’s triumph here Formula was the first ever for Ferrari in the U.S. Lauda breaks jinx Lauda had already clinched the world championship by virtue of his third place performance in Italy last month, but by winning at Watkins Glen, the Austrian became the first man ever to win the U.S. Grand Prix and the world championship in the same year. His championship is the first for Ferrari since Jack Surtees won in 1964. Lauda was the odds on favorite going intcf the race mainly because his practice times were consistently among the fastest of all contenders. He went on to win the pole position with an average lap speed of 119.18 miles per hour, and Ferrari technicians were extremely pleased with the performance of his 3 1 2T. Lauda and Fittipaldi, who was the other driver in the first row, ran one-two for all 59 laps of the race, far ahead of any other contenders. Fittipaldi was just a scant second or two behind Lauda for the first 20 laps. But in the 21st lap, the twosome crawled up on Reggazzoni, who had earlier troubles getting by.. Fistcuffs in the pits While Fittipaldi struggled to find an opening, Lauda built up the thirteen-second lead which he had no difficulty maintaining until the end of the race. Meanwhile, Reggazzoni was flagged into the pit area, where officials then elected to let him complete the race despite having clearly interferred with Fittipaldi. A brief fight took place in the pits between Ferrari manager Luca Montezemolo and a race official, and Reggazzoni was allowed back onto the course, but malfunction caused him to withdraw from the race just a few laps later. Certainly one of the toughest breaks in the race was the continuing tragedy of Mario Andretti. Andretti was the fifth best qualifier and appeared to be set for a real try at becoming the first American to win the U.S. Grand Prix. But on lap 7 his suspension broke, and his day ended abruptly. The only tight battles in the race were for the third through sixth spots. When Jean-Pierre Japrier’s UOP Shadow broke down in the 22nd lap, four drivers were left to scramble for the vacated third position. James Hunt of England held it early, but midway through the second half of the race, German’s Jochen Mass overtook Hunt and managed to stay third the rest of the way. Mass’s third coupled with teammate Fittipaldi’s second made it an outstanding day for the McLoren team. Hunt fell back again, this time being passed by Sweden’s flashy Ronnie Peterson, but Hunt repassed Peterson in the final laps for fourth place. Jody Scheckter of South Africa threatened to move up all race long, but never did improve on his sixth place position. Baseball Bulls ease to victory by John H. Reiss Staff Writer Spectrum Taking a winning the toward big step Big Four baseball championship, the Buffalo Bulls crushed Buffalo State College in a doubleheader 6-1 and 18-3. Saturday Field, at Peelle The opener of the twin bill was highlighted by the near perfect John of the Bulls’ pitching Buszka. The strong southpaw did not allow a Bengal to reach base until the fourth inning (that due to an error) and did not yield a hit until he gave up a two strike single to Bob Grady, with two outs in the seventh and final inning. Grady golfed a low fastball into centerfield to drive in State's only run of the game. State had been able to get two men on base earlier in the inning on an error and a walk. Grady’s single then broke up Buska’s no-hitter and spoiled his shutout. Buszka ended the game by making State’s next batter his I 1th strike out victim. Commenting on his fateful pitch after the game, Buszka said, “It was a good pitch, a fastball low and inside. I was shocked when I saw the way he hit it. thought 1 had him.” But he confessed that 1 throwing Grady a fastball may have been a eight mistake. “I’d thrown and he was straight fastballs looking for one. 1 should have shown him a eurveball just to set him up ” Real good stuff When asked if he knew he was Buszka no-hitter, “Yeah, I knew it. chuckled. Nobody on the bench would exactly say it, they’d just kid about it but I knew 1 had it. 1 had real good stuff today. My control was good and 1 had everything I needed." The Bulls won the game in the first inning, A leadoff double by Rick Wolstenholme, an error, a walk to John Mineo, a single by Mike Dixon and two more errors lead the way for four runs. Buffalo completed its scoring with single runs in the fourth and sixth tossing a innings. If the Bulls made the Bengals look bad in the opener, they Big Four their humiliated counterparts in the nightcap. Statistics box Tennis at the ECAC Championships, Princeton, N.J., October 3-4.

That problem, according to Director Gene loli and Student Association (SA) Directbr of Academic Affairs Dave Shapiro, is student apathy^and unawareness of the importance of SCATE to the University community. SCATE stands for Student Course And Teacher Evaluation. It’s a program that was designed by SA to provide students with a means of evaluating their courses and teachers at the end of each semester. It also allows incoming students access to information about courses for which they plan to register. Students are badly needed to help organize this year’s SCATE program and participate in its development, loli held the first SCATE meeting on Monday, September 29, but only two students attended despite a half-page announcement in Monday’s issue of The Spectrum. loli said he received many calls from students complaining about Dave Shipro and Gene loli teachers and courses, yet only these two students took time to see what they could do about it. He advised students to answer the SCATE questionnaires which will be distributed in every class approximately three weeks before the end of this semester. Carefully prepared The questionnaire contains 39 base questions developed by Shapiro and last year’s Academic Affairs Coordinator Mark Humm. Additionally, each department or College can add its own questions and students can comment at length on the course and teacher in a special space designated at the end. According to Shapiro, student comments are among the most important features of SCATE because they provide a basis for a personal assessment of teachers and courses. SCATE results take a long time to process and require a great deal of work. These results are important not only for students, but for the departments and administration, which use them in determining such things as tenure and the competency of a teacher. If the evaluations show that certain teachers within a department are incompetent or unqualified to teach, the department head can take steps to remove those teachers, Shapiro said. By the same token, if the results show that a teacher is good, the evaluation will'aid that person in possible promotions. SCATE results from the Spring 1975 semester will be published in mid-November, prior to registration. These results will enable students tb look up the consensus evaluation of teachers and courses and help them decide if they still wish to take a particular course prior to registration. It actually provides students with mote information than they could get from a course description, loli noted.

The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG), National Student Lobby (NSL) and the Democratic and Republican Parlies are among those involved in this effort. NYPIRG, which has been conducting the registration drive here has distributed approximately 1,000 absentee registration forms, and posted notice of the October 6 registration deadline date. Despite these efforts a great majority of students remain unregistered, according to Rich Sokolow, former Director of NYPIRG. Many students do not realize that by their failure to register, they are ineligible to vote in the Presidential and other party primaries in mid 1976, Sokolow said. Besides the various local county races, a state-sponsored Equal Rights Amendment is up for adoption. Approval of this amendment would mean immediate state-wide implementation of various Pilot projects If a substantial bloc of students vote, and are united behind specific issues, they could decisively affect local and national elections, said Frank Jackalone, a member of the NSL Board of Directors. The NSL is conducting pilot projects at various' universities around the country. These schools are chosen from key districts with large student populations where the outcome of local elections can be decisively determined by student ballots, Jackalone said. The NSL does not endorse candidates, he added, but rather compiles and publicizes the voting records of various Congressmen and local legislators. When a politician has had a negative attitude on student issues, the student vote can be effective in ousting him. The potential electoral influence of the nation’s 10,000,000 college students is enormous, Jackalone said. The Democratic and Republican Parties in Erie County have been conducting large scale registration drives of their own. The Democratic Party, employing. 2,000 inspectors, has already registered 37,000 voters in a three-day drive. Approximately 461,000 persons in Erie County are prsently registered to vote in the New York progressive Democrat who has represented the East side of Buffalo for nine years, expressed the opinion that student apathy is a direct result of aimless national leadership and a prostrate public attitude that has allowed special interests to run the primaries. country.

But without Sound Tech, concerts, speaker’s engagements and other “sound” events Kaen added that since Sound Tech people are skilled in their trade, the rates for similar services from private sound companies would run anywhere from $250-$2000 per concert. on could not take place. Sound Tech was originally set up in 1970 to provide sound reinforcement at University Union Activities Board (UUAB) coffeehouses, poetry readings and speaker presentations. Chairman Steve Kaen joined Sound Tech in 1972. With what was considered a relatively small amount of equipment, the group provided the amplification for small rock shows and beer blasts. The money they made from the campus shows enabled khe group to buy one large amplifier and two more loud speakers in 1974-75, Kaen said. The group has since been taking on larger jobs which require greater technical sophistication. Last summer, for instance, Sound Tech provided services for a Student Association (SA) concert with the 10-piece band “Equinox.” Dances featuring other groups were also set up during summer orientation. Budget fights Earlier this year, Kaen prepared a $29,000 budget which was initially rejected by Sub Board. Kaen managed to up Sub Board’s offer of $3500 to a final figure of about $7000. Most of the money was used to purchase a badly needed equalizer, which enables audio-technicians to use louder volumes without feedback, and a mixing board to mix sound. This equipment, along with a new amplifier and other supportive equipment (power cable and speaker cable) put a large dent in Sound Tech’s budget. Also expected to come out of the $7000 subsidy is the $2 an hour wage for the 14 workers in Sound Tech. This is one reason why Sound Tech has to charge for set-up and use of their equipment. Kaen does not believe that all Sound Tech’s services should be free. Sound Tech gives free sound for UUAB-sponsored events, but with projected expenses of $11,000 and a subsidy of only $7000, this cannot extend to all campus organizations. Charges Currently, Sound Tech charges an hourly rate based on the type of equipment being used, to cover depreciation and personnel charges. These charges may run from $30-$200. The $200 service, Kaen noted, would probably cost 60 percent more, or about $500, off-campus. “If a state funded organization requests sound or lights, they must contact us at least three weeks in advance due to the time it takes for a requisition to Kaen added. “We operate on a go first-come, first-serve basis,” he said. Sound Tech will also rent equipment from other companies which is not included in their inventory. Kaen attributed the “tremendous upsurge of sound-audio in general since 1970 to people replacing fancy cars with fancy stereos.” “Problems arise when inexperienced people come in to run an affair and only book the room for the time of the event, not allowing time for set-up,” Kaen said. This delays the event since the equipment cannot be moved in until showtime. Problems are further compounded because the equipment then has to be moved through a crowded room. Robert Klein One example cited by Kaen was the Robert concert. Sound Tech wanted to start setting-up at 3 p.m. However, a series of delays moved the time up to 6 p.m. This left two hours for a five-hourjob and no time to check the system. Consequently, the entire first act was delayed because of sound trouble. Sound Tech is currently developing an information package on areas such as the capabilities of sound and lighting, the rate structure, and how to plan an event. Most important, Kaen emphasized, is for a group planning an event to come to Sound Tech in advance so it can help with the plans. “People don't realize we are students, not professionals, and the learning experience is ours as well as theirs,” Kaen said. Klein Get your heads together. From one beer lover to another. by Paul Magiotto Staff Writer Spectrum The increase in bicycle riding has been accompanied by an increase in bicycle thefts. In 1974, 2,100 bicycles were stolen in the Buffalo area alone. The rate of disappearances this year is even greater, as 925 have already vanished in the first six months of 1975. The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYP1RG) recommends certain steps a bicycle owner can take to protect a bike from theft, and to increase the chances of it being returned if stolen. First, every bicycle owner should own and use a good lock and chain. NYPIRG has published a study on bicycle chains and cables to help decide which are the most economical and effective. NYP1RG concluded that chains are better than cables, and that chains with the highest resistance to tampering or cutting are the Master 94, Master 83, the American and the Teledyne. The Teledyne, though the strongest, is too short and bulky for maximum protection of wheels and frames. Effective locks For locks, NYPIRG suggests that the owher have a hardened shackle and a five-pyn tumbler key-operated mechanism. The most effective locking system available, according to NYPIRG, is the Citadel lock The Citadel lock is a U-shaped key lock which has withstood tampering with hammers, prybars, boltcutters and hacksaws in police tests. The lock is large enough to secure the rear wheel, frame and a quick-release front wheel to a post. The Buffalo Police offer a number of ways to register bicycle ownership. Though registration won’t necessarily deter a thief, the bike will have a 75 percent chance of being returned, according to the Study. Students at this University may register their bicycles at the Student Association Bike Compound adjacent to Lockwood Library. Nina Maberek, who has been working at the compound for three years, explained the system. Bike compound Students engrave their social security numbers on their bikes and fill out a registration form, she explained. This form is kept on file by Campus Security and forwarded to the Buffalo Police. The bicyclist is then given a license plate and a card which carries the same number. Anyone removing a licensed bike from the compound is asked to produce this card for proof of ownership. According to Haberek, anyone removing a bicycle that doesn’t bear a license plate is usually asked to produce an ID. card because it is assumed that a thief would not want to produce an I D., she explained. Another way to register a bike is through Western New York s Project Identification. According to David Sterner of Central Police Services, any possessions, including bicycles, can be brought to local shopping centers and schools at designated times, to be engraved with a serial number by the Police Department. This serial number is then kept on file by Central Police Services. Hundreds of recovered bicycles are auctioned off each year because there is no way of finding the owners, Sterner said. City ordinance Bikes may also be registered with local police precincts, which record the serial number of a bike and keep it on file, he added. A Buffalo City Ordinance requires that bikes be registered, and owners are subject to fines for failure to do so. Buffalo State College also has a guarded bicycle compound However, the College Campus Security has a unique method of deterring bicycle thieves, A security plainclothesman will ride a bike to an area on campus and leave it there; seemingly unattended. The bicycle is actually being watched by other security personnel, concealed in nearby bushes and buildings. When the thief makes his move, he is apprehended by Security. Buffalo State has advertised this program well to discourage any potential thief. Future proposition Presently an Erie County Registration Committee is working on a proposition for mandatory county-wide bicycle registration. This 18-member committee consists of representatives from Central Police Services, the Buffalo Police Department, Erie County Legislature, Erie County Attorney’s Office, area bike dealers and others. Sterner explained that each bike will be given an identifying number, which will be engraved on the bike. A numbered decal will also be placed in plain view. The cyclist will have to produce proof of ownership at an officer’s request, just like with an automobile. This identification number will be kept on file in Central Police Services, along with the bicycle size, manufacturer, color, serial number and other identification. Punishment for failure to register will depend on the local municipalities’ response to the idea. Monday, 6 October 1975 , The Spectrum .

Too old Facing a suite by Geraldine Cannon over 30 the University til Chicago admitted that it discouraged applicants over 30 who did not have advanced degrees. John Cannon. Mrs. Cannon's husband and an attorney, said that the school admissions policy not only discriminates against age hut against sex as well, since, after the most common child-bearing years, a woman wishing to return to medical school would be too old by most schools' standards. From one school. Cannon said, he received a letter flatly staling that his wile's application would have been rejected on the basis of age whether it came from a - There is now a special place for have 3 or more in your car you may park in you — Vie Spectrum (CPS) Browse through the catalog of a medical school, and you are likely to come across a line discouraging people over 26, 20 or some other age from applying. Call it discrimination or call it acceptable admissions policy; the fact is that at a time when as many as 40 people may compete for one medical school slot, someone over 30 with hopes of being a doctor will have a tough time realizing that goal. As one medical school administrator in California put it, an older applicant must “clearly show why we should take him over another applicant. Everything else being equal between two candidates, youth should weigh." Want to Change it?!

Their respective slates Massachusetts and Illinois have specific laws forbidding age discrimination. Many states do not. and there is no federal law dealing with age discrimination in education. The federal regulations of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare deal with civil rights concerning race, religion, national origin and sex. but not age. Nor does the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission deal with age grievances. The only 4th Meeting of the Student Affairs Task Force Wed. Oct. 8 at 4=00 pm - No precedent But there is a constitutional argument based on the principle of due process and the Fourteenth Amendment, which guarantees equal opportunity, contends Howard EglitVa law professor at Kent Law School in Chicago and an authority on the rights of the elderly. There is no judicial precedent, however, and Lglit concedes that “whether a court would but it is questionable.” But the rationale for age policies used by medical school administrators is “phony,” Lglit insists. The mainstay of that reasoning is that society will not get maximum service from an older student. Yearly medical school costs for one student are estimated at Si5.000. The student pays only a portion of the total amount: the maximum yearly tuition at a private medical school is about $5,000; at a state school, it costs the student much less. Tuition at the Slate University at Buffalo is S 1,600. In view of the high costs, students over 30 years are “a definite risk factor,” said Conrad Riley. Associate Dean for Admissions at the University of Colorado Medical School. “There is less time to serve." Riley said, “and older students are not as apt to slick with it. That is part of the economics of education." Dirty trick The University of Colorado has no set cut-off age, Riley said, hut it views applicants "with increasing caution as they go above 30." Out of a student body of 500. there were about live students admitted when they were 30 years or older, Riley said. Riley admitted there was discrimination of sorts. “The whole process of admission is a process of discrimination. You weigh academic ability, the ability to relate to patients. What do you do when so many people apply'.’ It you discriminate because of illogical things, that is a basis for a lawsuit. But if you discriminate on ability and staying potential, that is justifiable discrimination. There are so darn many excellent candidates who are younger that it would be a dirty trick on younger people to accept many older applicants.” For one school, the age policy may be formal. For another, it may be casual and "no big deal.” But in one form or another, age discrimination is practiced in medical school across the country. And these schools may soon find themselves in court faced with charges of discrimination.

Constitutional Amendments • federal law dealing with age discrimination is the Age Discrimination Act, enforced by the Department ot Labor, and that deals strictly with employment matters for people between the ages of 40 and 65. The U.S. Constitution provides little protection against age discrimination in education. The reasgning, speculated Bob Gillin, an attorney for the National Senior Citizens Law Center in Los Angeles, is that '“education is not a fundamental, constitutionally protected right.

Page five �Editorial Don't forget to register People between the ages of 18 and 25 have tremendous potential to affect the outcome of local, state and national elections. It is within this particular bloc of voters that lie the seeds of change because young people today tend to think more radically, to be more aware of the need for social, political and economic reform. For too long, our country has been governed primarily by a class of men who place their priorities in such areas as defense, intelligence, big business, and technology rather than welfare, education, free child and health care, and equal rights for minorities and women. Today is the final day to register for both the 1976 presidential primaries and the upcoming November election. Although considered an dff-year election, this November 4 will determine whether or not the state-sponsored Equal Rights Amendment is ratified by the voters. The Amendment will simply add 26 words to the New York State Constitution; "Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the state of New York or any subdivision thereof on account of sex." This applies to insurance rates for men as well as previously neglected rights for women. If issues such as equal rights are important to you, it is your responsibility to exercise your voting power. If you have not already done so, pick up an absentee ballot application or voter registration form at the NYPIRG booth in the Norton Center lounge today. It is the duty of the nation's 10,000,000 college students to make their voice heard on election days. v An explanation is in order Some anonymous person or persons pulled a malicious prank on Friday morning and we feel the many concerned students who noticed that there were no issues of The Spectrum around that day deserve an explanation. 16,000 copies of The Spectrum were dropped off at their usual campus locations early Friday morning. Between the time they were distributed and the time classes began, 13,000 issues disappeared. Only 3,000 copies made their way into the hands of any readers. We at The Spectrum have absolutely no idea who would deliberately steal the papers or why. But we do know that tampering with the freedom to publish a someone newspaper at this University. That is the sad part. For those of you who are still interested in taking a look at the Friday, October 3rd issue, a few isolated copies may be obtained from The Spectrum office in Room 355 Norton Hall. And for the rest, all we can say is that we feel sorry that a thoughtless individual or group of individuals is denying you the right to a free student press.

I am pissed at myself for not remembering that there were good and valid reasons for what 1 was feeling, for not writing down somewhere a reminder of what it was that 1 wanted to do/had to do, for not following my instinct to curl up with a good book.

Monday, 6 October 1975 On Thursday. October 2. I worked at the election booth in Norton Hall for the Student Association. It was here that I learned the real maturity level of the average student "What? You’re going to punch a hole in my IT). card." he. she, it cried. At least 15 people did not vote because I would have spoiled the beautiful curves of then brand new Another I D. cards. I find myself disgusted that such bahies can call themselves adults possessing enough maturity to be deemed responsible citizens. Children like this deserve no rights to vote whatever, in any situation. Maybe the voting age should he raised to 25 so as to give an individual enough time to decide which is more important, a clean I.D. car or participatory democracy: Samuel M. Prince unfair election To the t'Jitor. 1 believe the election for College Council on Thursday. October 2. has been conducted unfairly. As a candidate residing in the Governors' Residence Hall. I am at a distinct disadvantage since my voting strength resides in Governors' Hall along with myself I feel this election should be declared invalid, and a re-vote is mandated by these circumstances. A list of witnesses has been submitted to the Student Association office and elections Committee. Floyd C. Seligman �Students have a right to eat To the h.Jitor * unemployment bureau in this state has encouraged people to return to school to upgrade their skills it is recognized that a vast number of people no longer have a place in the job market. When Senator Buckley talks of "voluntary" this is the worst kind of lie. As unemployment students we are all acutely aware that decent jobs do not exist for.us. We hope that by staying in school long enough we will qualify for something. The - This letter is in response to Senator Buckley’s pending legislation that would disqualify students from the Federal Food Stamp Program. The senator contends that students are voluntarily unemployed; that anyone who chooses not to work should not be permitted to remain in that state of sloth. I would imagine that the senator would further argue that by "giving away" food to these good for nothings, we are sustaining their existance in effect the government is encouraging laziness to the — - detriment of our great economy. To this argument I say bullshit 1 It is symptomatic of a capitalist economy to vastly underutilize the available productive forces. In this country the only period of full economic utilization has been in wartime. Presently, some 30 percent of the plant capacity in this country is standing idle and this is not due to lack of a work force. Some 8 percent [official figures?) of the work force is - unemployed. In addition, jillions have not even bothered work force because it is quite obvious that the necessary jobs simply do not exist. Students entering the make up a large sector < of this group. The government has long acknowledged the inability of our economic system to provide for full employment. The institution of social welfare is an inherent, a vital factor in maintaining the social and political stability of this country. Recently the honorable Senator proposes that we should starve for our decision to remain in school. Effectively, this legislation will make it tougher to stay in school, it will make an education forther out of reach for a large segment of the population ultimately these people will have to accept lower wages are wages than what they hoped. Viola! — — cheap labor for the senator and his many friends. But even this argument (the argument of the ruling class) will not hold water. An unemployed student or an unemployed worker n» new jobs kept low - - will be created just the fight over the few scraps will be more intense. What is important is that we recognize this threat to our status. There are thousands of students on this campus for whom food stamps are a vital part of their sustenance. We cannot passively let these events overcome us. Those interested in pursuing this matter in a concerted manner, please leave your name and number at the (ISA office.

An invitation to gay people To the Fditor I transferred to this University this semester, a school of 30,000 students, and expected to find a tremendous gay organization on campus. Alas! There is no such organization. That is not an organization the size of which 1 had anticipated. According to statistics, there should be about 2,000 gay students here. So why is it there is an average of 20 people at the Gay Liberation Front (GLF) meetings? The group is fortunate to have a very comfortable house in which to hold its meetings. The relaxing atmosphere is conducive to discussions and conversations which range from the planning of GLF activities, such as the dance held last Friday night in Norton Hall to discussions of what it is to be gay and how to deal with it. The meetings give gay people'a chance to meet others who have come to reali/e that it's not neaessary to live a pretentious life based on our society's archaic morals. Here's a chance fop students to break away from their studies for a few hours and let down their facades. Wanling to see more faces at our next meeting Monday, 8 p.m. at 264 Winspear.

In June. 1 inquired by phone at the University's Personnel Office if I was eligible as a former graduate assistant for unemployment benefits. I was told very boldly that under Title blah. blah. Article such and such. Paragraph so ahd so, I was not eligible lor unemployment benefits as a graduate student Period' I went ahead and filed anyway The people at the unemployment office were very helpful and sympathetic. Despite the fact that the departments where 1 had worked did not respond to their inquiries as to the amount ol my salary, they accepted my word and my paycheck stubs as proof of income and 1 started receiving benefits under Jerry l ord's-Special Unemployment Act. I his discrepancy between the Personnel Office amt the Unemployment Office aroused my curiosity so 1 paid a visit to the Personnel Office. 1 played dumb and asked it I was eligible lor unemployment benefits as a former graduate assistant The same cold voice, now personified in a well-dressed woman, recited the same litany with the same big period alter Paragraph so and so. When 1 challenged her on this, she sputtered that, ol course, I was eligible under the Special Unemployment Act (SUA) but this was federal, not stale money Before this challenge, no advice was offered 1 wonder how many graduate assistants missed out on benefits last summer as a result of this systematic withholding of information. final irony occurred today when 1 was informed that Albany had declared graduate assistants ineligible for Special Lmployment Act benefits, f rom the arguments that the Personnel Office used, the SUA money was not coming from the state coffers but from federal monies. How then can Albany deny graduate assistants benefits? I am confused and broke. Let’s organize a protest! Please call Jon at 886-1768 if you also have a no file file. 1 would like to hear from you.

Ask for Rabbi Greenberg �the bull pen by David J. Rubin Sports Editor Another fall season is passing by without intercollegiate football at Buffalo. Rotary Field’s stands remain empty and Saturday afternoons are as lazy as Sundays would be if the pros weren’t on TV. This school is missing something. Obviously, with dollars as scarce as they are, the Board of Trustees isn’t going, to suddenly say, “Gee, Buffalo should really have a football team. Let’s get it one for Christmas” (They don’t even believe in Santa Claus), and forget about Student Association (SA). SA doesn’t have enough money to buy a box seat at Rich Stadium. Yet somehow football is just something that belongs at a university right along side chem labs and Jimmy Breslin. If you’ll excuse the expression, football is part of “the college experience.” In places like Nebraska and Oklahoma, there are waiting lists for season tickets to college football games that extend to 1980. Schools like UCLA, Michigan State and Ohio State sometimes pack in more than 100,000 fans for a game. Football is a way of life. Now, I’ve never been the rah-rah “Let’s Go Buffalo” type, but I’m not unexcitable either, and I really think football could do a lot for this school. It doesn’t have to be a multi-million dollar program with computerized recruiting systems. It shouldn’t be. A localized limited schedule and cut-rate equipment and expense budgets might just be enough of a program to let Buffalo in on some of the widespread benefits which college football can make possible. The first of these benefits is exposure. Even on a local basis, the publicity which a football team draws is also publicity for the school. In the extreme case, ABC-TV does short half-time spots on its game-of-the-week about the schools which are competing that day. But there is more. Talk about ‘school spirit” is usually something which is confined to high school. Right now, though, Buffalo is a spiritless school. Fights over women’s studies and election irregularities are all that keep Buffalo from falling asleep. Football is not going to make everyone suddenly ecstatic about being here, but it might stir up a few cheers around campus. Friends and relatives of mine who were here during the days of Buffalo Bull football remember it fondly. There is no reason why the same fondness wouldn t resurface it football was reinstituted. Certainly there is interest. 64 teams and over 500 people are involved in intramural football, while many others were turned away. The Wizard of Odds remains one of the more popular features of The Spectrum and every so often a small group of students gets on a “bring back football” kick. But football can’t come back, at least, not right away. The money isn’t there, and the Athletic Department does not have a good enough reputation with student leaders to get it too soon. It would take an about face of finances and attitudes to start football up again, and that doesn’t look likely for a few years at least. , Sports Quiz Today’s quiz is designed to test your memory of the 1974 football season. First, here are the answers to last week’s questions.

Simpson (b) 183 yards by Otis Armstrong or (c) 153 yards by Calvin Hill. 2 What two teams shared the worst record in the NFL last year? Everyone recognizes Muhammad Ali in the 3 picture. But who is he fighting with? - - - Tennis Bulls beat Fredonia by Paige Miller Assistant Sports Editor The tennis Bulls keep bouncing along Tuesday, they wiped out Big Four foe Canisius 7-2. their only two losses coming by forfeit, since only five players were available for the match. Then, on Wednesday, they beat Fredonia 6-0 in a rain-shortened affair. With two victories this week, Buffalo’s record now stands at 7-0, and gives them a thirteen-game winning streak. The win over Canisius made in Big Four Buffalo 2-0 competition this year. Not counting the two forfeits, the Bulls have not lost a ppint yet to a Big Four school. Boardman shines win produced several impressive performances, but the most impressive was by Al Boardman. Although he does not regularly play singles, Boardman moved up into the fifth spot and shut out the Griffins Ray Witzleben. Boardman sal our last year, but The the year before he was one of Buffalo’s more consistent players, reeling off six wins in a row at one point. This year, he has seen and dropped down to sixth. Now, it seems that Carr ha's broken out of his slump in fact, in his last six sets, he has lost only four action mostly in doubles play, where he teams with Bill Cole. Against Canisius, he and Cole moved up from third to first doubles, and still handily defeated the Griffins’ best doubles combination. The Bulls’ success of late is also due to their great depth. The bottom of the lineup consisting of Rob C.urbacki, Lenny Gross, Pete Carr and Boardman, turned in better scores against Fredonia and Canisius than the top of the order did. This pattern has occurred regularly throughout the season so far. Gurbacki, last week’s Athlete of the Week, hits the ball hard and deep, with fair consistency. Gross usually stays on the baseline. Although this produces some very long matches, it has also given Gross Buffalo’s best singles record this year, 7-0. Lately, he has been improving his net game, too. Carr began the season at third singles, but ran into a bad slump games! - The Bulls still have a grueling week ahead. After returning from what may be their toughest match of the year, the ECAC Championships at Princeton over the weekend, they could be pretty tired. On Wednesday, they will travel to Brockport. A match against Rochester has been tentatively scheduled for this week, and the Bulls will conclude their season this weekend with the Big Four Championships.

Page nine �The irrepresible Casey Stengel is dead at 85 by John H. Reiss Staff Writer Spectrum Charles Dillon (Casey) Stengel, a baseball manager, player and clown for over fifty years died last Monday night at the age of 85. His death was mourned by millions of Americans who had learned to love the OT Professor. Stengel will be remembered most for his success as manager of the New York Yankees. In his twelve years on the job, the Yankees won ten pennants and seven World Series. He will also be remembered for his development Stengelese,” a highly of complicated form of double talk “ which he frequency. used with increasing Those who played under Stengel were particularly moved by his death. Yogi Berra, Stengel’s catcher throughout his years as Yankee shipper said, “Baseball has lost a great man.” “Casey was like a father to Statistics box Soccer at Brockport, October I, 1975.

Even Joe DiMaggio, who disagreed with many of Casey’s managerial techniques when he was a player, praised his ex-skipper, saying, “He was wonderful. He understood his players and he knew what to do with the talent he had.” Stengel broke into the major leagues as a Brooklyn Dodger in 1912. He played in Brooklyn’s Ebbetts Field for five years before he was traded to the Pittsburgh Pirates Casey the comedian During his first few years as a player- he developed a reputation as a clubhouse prankster and practical joker and it was with the Pirates that he pulled what was probably his most famous stunt. Upon returning to Ebbets Field as a visiting player, he was greeted with boos and jeers by the hometown crowd as he came to bat. Stengel took a deep bow, lifted his cap, and a sparrow flew out from beneath it. He clearly had the last laugh on the Dodger fans. Casey was later to claim that if a player ever did that while he was the manager, he’d probably “fine his ears off.” Stengel eventually went on to play for the Phillies, the Giants (for whom he starred in the 1923 World Series), and the Braves. His lifetime average as a player was .284. Soon after his playing days in the majors ended, he pulled another one of his pranks. He had been hired as president, manager and right fielder of the Braves’ Worcester farm team. At the end of a trying season, he unveiled the most unique front office move ever: manager Stengel released player Stengel, president Stengel fired general manager Stengel, and Casey Stengel resigned as president. Between the years 1934 and 1948, the OP Professor managed both major and minor league clubs without success. He managed the Dodgers and Braves from 1934 to 1943 and never finished higher than fifth. But he got a big break in 1949 when at 58 years of age, he was asked to manage the Yankees. Record setter His first five years with the were the most successful for any manager in the history of the game. His Yankees won pepnants and World Series in each of those five years as they set a record for team consecutive World Championships. The confident Stengel even claimed that if the team didn’t win a sixth consecutive title, the manager should be fired. That year the Cleveland Indians woh an all time high 111 games and finished eight games in front of New York. Stengel was rehired. Casey’ then won pennants in 1955, ’56, ’57, ’58 and ’60 while copping two World Series flags. However, there was much talk that he was too old to continue managing and in a bizarre press conference at the end of the I960 season, Stengel announced, “I was told my services were no longer required.” It took him only two years to return to baseball, this time as manager of the hapless New York Mets in 1962. His fan appeal was very evident as his tenth place Mets outdrew the pennant winning Yankees in attendance from his second year as manager on.

Moore indicated that increased employee vigilence and more vigorous prosecution are part of a new anti-shoplifting effort. The present security system employs several part-time guards, a plain-clothes detective, and requires that customers place their books and possessions in cubby holes. The Bookstore management also considered using electronic security measures, which would require the attaching of magnetic lags to merchandise. This type of precaution is prevalent in Confronted with an increase Cooperation of student government, media urged by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor Student government and student media often work toward the same goals, and therefore should strive to keep their relationship a cooperative one whenever possible, according to Chip Berlet, a staff member of the nationally syndicated College Press Service. Berlet is also a former member of the student government at the University of Denver. Berlet explored the relationship between student press and government during a workshop at the Student Association of the State University’s (SASU) annual Media Conference in Albany, attended by representatives of many SUNY student newspapers. When internal squabbles and personality conflicts develop between student politicians and student journalists to the point that they oppose each other on most issues, “the administration stands back and smiles, because the students are at each others’ throats,” said Berlet. The same goal This is unfortunate, he added, because basically both the student government and student media have the same goal: “serving the best interests of the students.” Many of the participants in the workshop described difficulties they experienced with their student associations or publications boards. A representative from the State University College at New Paltz claimed that the situation at her school is especially bad. “Our paper is supposed to put ‘commentary’ or ‘editorial’ on anything that’s opinion,” she said, “but when our new constitution came up for referendum last year, the paper not only came out with an issue that had “Vote No for the New Constitution” all over it, but they came out with a separate newsletter on yellow paper denouncing it.” War! This government-media battle led to a series of events, she continued, which culminated in the student government throwing several thousand issues of the paper into a nearby river and the paper’s editorial board setting fire to the ballot box. When she mentioned that (he student government had considered freezing the paper’s funding, Berlet contended that such an action is not within its legal rights. “I can cite you at least a dozen legal cases where the court ruled in favor of the student paper," he said. Less direct forms of pressure sometimes exerted on student media by student governments, such as the removal of editors by communications boards, has led to unnecessary and undesirable conflict, he said. “By doing that, you are arrogating to yourself a power that denies your responsibilities,” he continued. Berlet stressed that the responsibility to serve the best interest of the students necessitates an independent press. —continued on page 2— many department stores However, magnetic have been found unfeasible for books. And since books make up 78 percent of the store’s sales volume, it would be both impractical and financially prohibitive to attach these tags to other items, Moore explained. tags The consequences Students apprehended for shoplifting are referred to the Student Judiciary, while incidents involving other members of the University community are turned over to the President’s office. The Buffalo Police Department is notified of offenders who are unconnected with the University. Last year nine shoplifting incidents involving students were brought before the Student Judiciary. Six were sanctioned as a result of these referrals. The sanction usually consists of a three to four month loss of bookstore privileges and a “stiff warning.” Repeat offenders run the risk of academic suspension. Although threat of prosecution deters some shoplifting, the most effective deterrent is “self imposed restraint on the part of the small minority of persons who do steal,” Moore said. Raises prices Shoplifting hurts everyone by indirectly causing prices to rise, he stated, adding that $40 thousand to S60 thousand in merchandise loss can easily eradicate the store's dim profit margin. To emphasize the seriousness of the problem, signs are posted around the store reminding customers that “shoplifting is stealing.” The irony of the situation, Moore said, “lies in the fact that the vast majority of shoplifters are basically honest people, who would curtail their activities if they truly realized the grave consequences of their actions.” Alternative education Special major programs successful Carrie Valient Spectrum Staff Writer The Special Major program at this University is a successful alternative programs, evaluation to traditional degree according to an of the program surveying students who graduated 1973 and January between January 1975. The survey was the recently completed by Undergraduate Division of Education (DUE). The purpose of the survey was to find how students with Special Major degrees fared in the job market and in graduate education. Former students were requested the to evaluate personally program in terms of whether it helped or hindered them in their future aspirations. significant majority of A percent) (85.5 respondents reacted positively toward the program, according to the survey, and the evaluation concluded that the respondents “praised the Major program for Special meeting particular needs and for providing an additional option in academic realizing and/or vocational goals.” Favorable reaction expressed commonly One opinion was that the decision to pursue a Special Major was looked favorably by prospective educational and employers institutions. A special major student in “Criminal Justice for Women” commented, “I found that in looking for a job, people were very interested to find out about my special major and regarded me as a special person for establishing my own program in college rather than following the traditional degree in a specific upon discipline.” “My employers considered that my seeking and working towards a 1 had to put degree which together showed a great deal of initiative and creativity,” a former Urban Studies major explained. One student described his Special Major in “Comparative Sociology” as “one of the greatest assets in the eyes of the graduate acceptance committee at the University of Michigan.” A few students indicated that program was a the Special major factor in the completion of their college degrees. “As 1 recall, during my sophomore year at UB, 1 was about to drop out of school,” explained an “Urban Education” major who later finished a Master of Science in Learning Disorders. “It was at that time I was given reference to the Special Major Program which provided me with a great deal.” was Only student one dissatisfied with his Special Major. majoring in enjoyed “1 Portuguese, but I found (the hard a BA degree is way) that worthless. 1 feel 1 wasted four years of time and money.” The survey found that 75.4 percent of the respondents were presently employed. Their job titles included: Senior Planner, Town of Amherst; Legislative Aide, City of Buffalo; Photograph Illustrator, Phoenix, Arizona; and Production Assistant, WNED. The also found that 40.6 survey percent of the former students working toward advanced Medicine, including degrees, Community Planning, Psychology, were Public Communications and Law. William Fritton, chairman of the Special Major Committee and Assistant to the Dean, pointed out that the program is “unique” to the State University at Buffalo. The program originated in the Faculty Senate in 1968 and was formally approved by the State University of New York Office of the Provost, on January 28, 1970. degrees The first Special were awarded in June, 1970. Requirements that a explained Fritton student seeking a special major must first find two faculty advisors of at least assistant professor rank to sponsor the which is submitted at the end of the junior year. “Each student structures his proposal, major,” Fritton said. However, the student must be to that his' justify ready coursework “is aimed at a certain educational intent.” A viable proposal is one which shows “a meaningful relationship between what the student says and what his concentration is,” he noted. Fritton indicated that initially, 20 percent of the proposals are not fully approved. However, most students resubmit their proposal in acceptable form. Less than 5 percent of the students who submit proposals don’t ultimately go through with them. Dorothy Wynne, DUE Director of Advisement, said the problem acceptance is proposal of “overstated.” She explained that advisors “try to point out the problems of having proposals accepted.” Wynne also spoke of the latest trends in Special Major proposals. “The proposals are more specific than they used to be. There is an emerging pattern of things related to environmental problems or some specific social problem.” the attributes Fritton popularity of the Special Major “the Program increasing to student drive for vocational relevancy in their majors. own . �Medical admissions chairman resigns Committee Rebuttal by Women’s Medical Admissions Committee chairman Luther Musselman has announced his resignation from that position, effective today.

I & 25) PROBLEM PREGNANCY? testimony currently before Senate * * ������������������������� �Determining factor? LSAT-review credibility by Anthony Schmitz Special to The Spectrum (CPS) — In a tangle of frayed serves and sweat-beaded brows, about 112,000 persons each year lock horns with the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT). The fight is for one of an estimated 37.000 positions in law schools around the country, and for many the test will be-a major factor in determining whether they will be admitted to a school of their choice. A handful of companies around the country have found this nervous battlefield perfect territory to turn a profit. They offer courses designed to help students study for the tests and maximize their scores But administrators of the LSAT claim that the only significant difference is that persons taking these courses are anywhere from $85 to $225 poorer after the course Administrators claim that the LSAT measures “intelligence qualities that develop gradually and types of knowledge that one accumulates over a long period of time.” No evidence shows that a review course or book will help any more than studying the test guide provided with the $13 LSAT fee, administrators say. No real help There is “no evidence that the courses really help test scores, and if there is, we’ve never seen it,” according to Robert Wiltsey. program director of the law school tests. Persons in the review course business, however, claim that the LSAT administrators are only protecting their self interest by claiming that the review courses can’t help. Test administrators “have a vested interest in defending -the validity of the test as an accurate measure of ability,” said a spokesperson for the New Jersey-based Law School Admission Test Review Board, Inc. The spokesperson, who did not want to be identified, claimed that test scores can be improved by taking the course his firm offers as well as other review courses. The Review Board’s program offers a 20-hour course, taught by attorneys for $85. Actual results are difficult to pinpoint since only about 20 percent of those taking the course each year return a special card which asks what score they received on the 800-point test. The number of students taking the test each year is “confidential information.” The Review Board spokesperson claimed. however, that the LSAT administrators themselves say that test scores can be expected to increase by 35 or 40 points for persons taking the test a second time. The course offers pupils a chance to take the test in a simulated setting, he said, giving them a head start similar to taking the test once before. The success of review courses, the spokesperson claimed, spurred the recent addition of the sample test in the LSAT handbook. An eight-session program offered by Stanley Kaplan Education Center of New York for $225, advertises that “There is a difference!” But Kaplan explained that the claim' refers to the difference between his test preparation program and others. Course graduates receive an average score of 600, Kaplan claimed, while the overall mean for persons taking the test is 522. The mean score Kaplan cited was on a 20 percent non-random return of information cards handed out to persons taking the review course, and is not based on a scientific study. Wiltsey of the LSAT board pointed out that there is no way to tell what those students might have scored on the test if they hadn’t taken the review No lawsuits No fraud suits have been filed against any of the firms, according to both LSAT administrators and review course spokespersons. There “is no basis for a suit,” Kaplan said. “There are no guarantees, so what can you say'* But if we can’t help someone, no one can According to the Review Board spokesperson they have "never had a complaint," although some who have taken the course still didn’t earn high scores on the test. "But some people are stupid and will never do well on the test Some people just aren’t capable of scoring 700. Law school deans across the country are as reluctant as LSAT administrators to recommend the courses At the University of Kansas. Dean Martin Dickinson said he wasn't sure the review courses were worth the price of enrollment and doubted that any amount of cramming could help a student prepare for the test. The dean of the University of Minnesota Law School said that he advised two of his children who took the LSAT’s to study the booklet prepared by the LSAT administrators and ignore test review ” courses University Jewish Free LANGUAGE course - Reading Hebrew Time to be arranged Conversational Hebrew (Elementary) Thurs. 8:30 pm Conversational Yiddish Time to be arranged — — THOUGHT 81 PHILOSOPHY Maimonides Wed. 8:00 pm Tues. 8:00 pm Exploring the Meanings of TheMitzvot Chassidic Philosophy Time to be arranged Mon. 8:30 pm Weekly Bible (Torah) Portion — — — — LAWS & (Rabbi Greenberg) (Mrs. Greenberg) (Rabbi Greenberg) (Rabbi Greenberg) (Rabbi Gurary) (Rabbi Greenberg) (Mrs. Greenberg) CUSTOMS Women in Jewish Law Mon. 8:00 pm Laws of Kashruth (Yoreh Deah) Sun. 9:30 (Rabbi Greenberg) — 12 noon Tues. 8t Thurs. 9:00 10:00 pm Laws of Shabbos Daily 7—7:30 a.m. - - - (Rabbi Greenberg) (Rabbi Greenberg) TALMUD Time to be arranged Elementary Talmud (Baba Metzia) Intermediate Talmud (Baba Batra) Time to be arranged Advanced Talmud (Kiddushin) Thurs. 7:30 pm — — — CHALLAH BAKING TIME TO BE ARRANGED (Rabbi Greenberg) (Rabbi Greenberg) (Rabbi Greenberg) (Mrs. Horowitz) Sponsored by Chabad House Call 837-2320 or 833-8334 for details. Ask for Rabbi Greenberg Residential Colleges: minimal changes felt by Mike McGuire Contributing Editor “Life has not changed much since the days before the colleges were chartered," representatives of two residential Colleges told The Spectrum. Budgets have not increased despite hints that they might, and chartering has had little of the had effects on innovation and student morale that some critics envisioned, they said. Michael Wing, coordinator of Vico College, said the academic aspect of the program has continued to grow and now includes thirteen courses plus independent study. Forty regular University faculty are involved at one level or another, he said. Vico, a college devoted to studying the history and ideas of “Western Consciousness," houses about 85 or 90, in Wing’s estimation, in Building I of Fargo Quad in the Fllicott Complex. This is up from 25 students in residence last semester, when the residential program first began Cross listings While Wing believes the College will continue to grow, he doesn’t feel it will expand much beyond about 100-150 students. In contrast to some Colleges, Wing pointed out that Vico set up courses specifically aimed at getting departments to cross-list them. While College members realize that this will lower its own enrollment figures (as of September 23, only eight students had registered for Vico courses under the College’s listing), they believe it makes more sense to help students meet distribution and major requirements by cross-listing courses, said Wing. Vico came under fire during the chartering hearings for allegedly being "a Great Books program.” Wing, insisted that those charges were inaccurate since although Vico made use of pivotal works in “Western consciousness.” the program transcended a reliance on “Great Books.” Clifford Furnas College Wing also said some Vico students were not residents but still wished to become involved in the College’s activities, and the College is currently figuring out how to accommodate them. Clifford Furnas College (CFC) has grown considerably since chartering, according to a Resident Assistant (RA) and one College member. CFC, which attempts to integrate the natural sciences with the humanities, now occupies five buildings out of seven in Fargo Quad at Ellicott. The number of student members of CFC has grown from about 250 to over 400, according to Furnas resident Charlie Maron. While about 55 students signed up for CFC courses under the College’s listing this semester, Maron pointed out that most students register through departments in natural sciences and humanities that cross-list the courses. Many facilities According to Maron, RA Margie Ichel has been running a wide range of academic-residential programs. Faculty members have been invited to give seminars and to eat in the cateteria with students, and a one-to-one program has been started with local retarded children. The College maintains its own newspaper entitled Clifj Notes , as well as its own computer room with a terminal, a “supercalculator, art room, and “modest library.” Art Bartikofsky, another CFC RA, said all but a handful of the 400 or so students living with the College are actively involved with its activities. He added that there is a waiting list for students wanting to join the College at mid-year. Bartikofsky noted that Furnas was trying to set up programs for off-campus students, including Furnas “alumni” who have moved out of the dorms and students who have never been involved. One person, he said, is currently talking to University Housing about securing dorm space on selected weekends to accommodate off-campus students at CFC events. Chartering was mandated by the Faculty Senate’s Reichert Prospectus of 1974 for each of the thirteen colleges then in existence. College Z (Law and Society College), disbanded rather than submit a charter, but its courses were later taken over by the College of Urban Studies.

Wednesday, 1 October 1975 . - uu �As job competition intensifies, men challenge Affirmative Actio by Allan Rabinowitz The Special to The Spectrum (CPS) In California, a white male who claims that was kept out of medical school while a minority student of lesser ability was accepted is suing the University of California. In Kansas, a white male who compalins that he was denied a university job solely because it was reserved for a minority or woman is suing the University of Kansas. In New York and Minnesota, similar suits have been filed. As the job market tightens across the country, and the competition to get into medical and other professional schools turns vicious, white males are challenging university affirmative action and racial quota programs with charges of “reverse discrimination.” Using the fourteenth amendment of the Constitution the same amendment used to of the United States white males initiate civil rights programs and legislation claim that they are suffering solely because of their race and sex. The controversy first reached the public eye when Marcos DeFunis, Jr. filed suit in 1971 charging that he was refused admission to the University of Washington Law School while 38 minority group applicants who had worse academic records than he did were accepted. DeFunis was admitted to the law school when a superior court ruled in his favor. The Washington State Supreme Court reversed the decision but allowed DeFunis to remain in school pending an appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. - he - - Moot case Since DeFunis was a third-year law student on the verge of graduating when the case finally reached the Supreme Court, that court ruled the case moot, explaining that DeFunis would graduate no matter what the outcome. Neither side was pleased with the decision. Cases similar to the DeFunis case are bound to reach the Supreme Court again. A Superior Court judge ruled in a case brought against the University of California (UC) that the quota system for minority admissions at the UC-Davis Medical School was unconstitutional. An attorney for UC, which has appealed to the.state Supreme Court, said "it can be pretty safely assumed that whoever loses will appeal to the United States Supreme Court.” controversy of reverse discrimination is complicated because “it is not between good guys and bad guys, but between very sophisticated parties who differ about what, in the effort to achieve a very pressing and very difficult end, we may rightly use as a means,” according to Carl Cohen, an American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) national director. Critics of racial quotas claim that the Constitution is clear in prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sex or color. Sen. John Tower (R., Texas) cited Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act as clearly outlawing the refusal to hire someone on the basis of color or sex, and attacked the Supreme Court for appearing “content to dodge the issue.” Claiming that “higher education in 1975 death struggle. with the economics of Tower went on to accuse the Department Education and Welfare of forcing campuses affirmative action guidelines and timetables threat of harsh financial penalties. and is in a life inflation,” of Health, to accept under the Equal opportunity Like other critics, Tower said he understands that affirmative action programs are sincere efforts to speed up equal opportunity in education and employment. But “while this frustration may make affirmative action understandable, it does not thereby make it legal, nor constitutional,” he said. A lawyer for the Anti-Defamation League of B’nai Brith, which has helped to sue several colleges in reverse also including the DeFunis case discrimination cases emphasized that efforts should be made to assure equal opportunity for minorities, but that this should consist of education and remedial training “at a lower level.” Supporters of quota systems argue that academic test scores are not accurate reflections of intelligence and ability to begin with, and that there are many reasons why a minority student may not perform as well academically. One overriding reason is that within the last 25 years, many states spent much more 25 times as much in some areas on the education of white children than they have - - - — for blacks. Janies P. Comer, an associate professor of psychiatry at Yale and president of the Black Psyclyatrists of America, claims that black children are often not given for achievement, and suffer motivation strive GMAT applications psychological performance. harm which may affect their later Cohen of the ACLU also pointed out that the Washington State Supreme Court ruled in the DeFunis case that all racial classifications are not unconstitutional. Cohen claims that the court ruled racial classifications unconstitutional only when they brand a particular racial group as inferior. A preferential admissions policy does not stigmatize minorities and does not have malicious intent, according to Cohen, since its aim is to bring races together rather than separate them. While the arguments in support of racial quota systems involve sociology, economics, psychology and the politics of the last 25 years, the grounds for charging discrimination stand reverse on much simpler legal grounds. The Constitution states that no one will be discriminated against on the basis of color and sex, but it does not specify what color or sex, or under, what conditions. How expansive an interpretation the Supreme Court will make is open to question. But with colleges being brought to court on charges of reverse discrimination again and again, some interpretation seems inevitable. Minority student has place to turn for help * The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) will be offered on November 1, 1975, and on January 31, March 27 and July 10, 1976.

A fee of $12.50 is required with the completed application. by Jenny Cheng ContributingEditor “The average State University student today is no longer white and upper middle class,” contends Jamil Hassan, Campus Coordinator of the Office of Minority Student Affairs (OMSA). “Today’s average student is coming from a different socio-economic and academic background, and Minority Student Affairs was established to meet the needs of students who come from these backgrounds,” he said. OMSA’s trained professionals and students provide assistance to minority students of all ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds, dealing with any situation related to University life, including both academic and non-academic problems. Student services OMSA offers academic and personal counseling, employment referrals, legal aid, recommendation letters, grievance appeals, and information regarding available state and federal funds for minority students. OMSA’s overall objective is to "enhance and increase a student’s chance of successful achievement of educational goals and objectives.” Specifically, the office is involved in preventive teaching and counseling. OMSA currently sponsors career seminars, summer orientation programs for HOP students, and many neighborhood youth programs. It also helps place students in University and recreational jobs, and sponsors tutorial and work study programs for inner city high school dropouts. was primarily geared to serve American expanded its office to encompass foreign students as well. “This is largely due to the fact that the University has drastically cut expenses funding various student organizations,” Hassan observed. As a result, several offices have been “relocated.” OMSA was recently incorporated into the Office of Human Resources. Although the office minority students, it has Minority advocates “Since April 1970, when OMSA was first established, it has been regarded as an office of minority advocates. Although the University was funding us, it was a little skeptical about our existence,” Hassan The Spectrum CLASSIFIED ADS really work asserted. “We have felt a ‘squeeze’ throughout the years, but now, we are feeling more optimistic that the administration is enabling us to carry out our intended functions. I only hope our funds aren’t cut any more than they have been already,” he stated. “I think we are good at solving problems,” Hassan affirmed “We’re good because we’re experienced.” Wednesday, 1 October 1975 The Spectrum .

Members of the UPA executive board feel many more students would be involved in the club if they realized it isn’t just for psychology seniors. UPA President Beth Singerman, Vice President Nancy Ellett, and Treasurer Gary Wieder stressed that the club is for everyone. It is for prospective psychology majors as well as declared ones, Singerman said. She explained that in order to be a declared major and assigned advisor in the Psychology department, a student must take Psychology 101 and 207 or an equivalent statistics course. Many freshmen who have not taken these courses and plan to major in psychology need advice, and do not know where to find it, Singerman maintained. Research “We try to find out what areas of research individual professors are involved in, so if a student desires to do research in a specific area of psychology, we cgn refer' him to the proper professor,” said Ellett. The UFA hopes to keep studertts informed of any available paying or non-paying positions as experimental subjects or research assistants. “It is important for students to understand all of the functions of the Psychology Department, not just their textbooks,” Singerman classes and remarked. The UPA plans to act as a liason between the Psychology Department faculty and the students, “to keep Fines of communication open.” The UPA plans a number of forums with speakers from psychology-related disciplines. Topics covered last year, for existentialism, included example, parapsychology. and phenomenology, A serious dilemma Ellett said many psychology majors have a serious dilemma. They, just take courses not knowing where they, are headed, she said. The UFA plans to invite speakers to discuss the job situation for people with a degree in psychology. According to Singerman. it is harder to get into a Graduate Program for Clinical Psychology than either Medical or Dental School . Because of .this, the l#A set up a “browsing library” and hwt with Qraduate' . students at thiv Uniyefsitjt, to discuss criteria for graduate school, acceptance. The UPA also intends to expand this program, so that, it includes. statistics on the rate of acceptances’of "Undergraduate psychology majors froon this University programs, into Financial troubles UFA plans also,include a “T-group weekend." A T-group weekend involves group sensitivity sessions where people "get together to leatn about themselves” through group interaction. Also slated for this year are a newsletter and weekend trips to a variety of psychology conventions. v In the past, the club has not been as active as possible, Weider observed. This could explain the difficulty in obtaining funds from the Student Association, he added. A budget request of $800 was submitted but only a $70 allocation granted. With enough student support, UPA members hdpe to receive an additional allocation from the supplemental budget, as well as possible financial aid from the psychology department. - Airlines offering reassurance to charter flights Jerry Rosoff Spectrum Staff Writer Chartered air travel has become a cheap but often frustrating way to travel over the last few years. Cancellations, delays and other hassles are often encountered by charter passengers, but airlines and travel agencies are trying to reassure potential customers that reduced fares do not inevitably lead to increased problems. Most charters are set up through a travel agent, although it possible to negotiate directly with the airlines. Allegheny Airlines offers two types of charters. The group charter is arranged by large is organizations such as the Elks and Rotary, while the single entity charter is offered by smaller companies and clubs. Whichever charter contract is taken, the entire plane must be reserved. Allegheny seeks to ensure that the traveler "experiences virtually no difficulty in his travels." The original price quoted can only be readjusted in the event that the travelers’ destination or aircraft is changed. Never be stranded If any change is made by Allegheny without permission of the traveler, no increase in cost will be required. Should a flight be cancelled or delayed for any reason. Allegheny alternate guarantees . that provisions will be made. If the' wait is overnight, the airline will arrange hotel"accommodations for the evening. Allegheny boasts that not a single charter was cancelled all year. "The people arc our responsibility, a charter is., a binding contract." a spokesperson of the company claimed "A passenger will never be stranded.” As of September 13, a new type ’ of charter has become available. Under the One-Stop Inclusive Tour Charter (OTC). it is now possible for a chartered plane to make only one stop, instead of the usual three, as long as a minimum of 40 seats are filled. Another type of charter is the “affinity charter.” geared towards qny group which has been organized for a purpose other than travel, and has been in existence for at least two years. To be eligible, a person must be a member of the organization for at ledsfsix months' Asked what protection the consumer has when traveling charter. Hank Land, spokesperson UB . KOREAN STYLE for Small World Travel Inc. said a person booking a charter flight pays the fee to a depository bank, not to the travel agent. The agent cannot collect his fee until at least two days after the airline certifies that the charter has been completed. It is for this reason, Land said, that a travel agent will do everything he can to complete the tour, from the plane trip to hotel accommodations. KARATE CLASS TIME 4:30 5:30 pm (Tues. & Thurs.)

I �News analysis W im mm Busing to bring major problems for Boston Editor's note: This is the first in a series of articles dealing with the busing situation in Boston and the implications of a similar policy in Buffalo. This first article deals with the social problems existing in the South Boston-Charlestown neighborhoods. by Alan Most and Ellen Grossman Earlier this month throngs of newsmen converged on the of neighborhood Boston Charlestown, waiting for the fight that occurred last year and the year before in South Boston. They had to make sure that if it happened again, they would be there. For the past three years the media has reported to the nation the ugly details of a busing program that was designed to eventually desegregate all of Boston’s public schools. The . was that of angry, frustrated whites stoning buses transporting black children to schools in neighborhoods that were not their own. Stabbings, beatings, running battles with the police and the elite Tactical Patrol Force were considered commonplace, as were signs stating “Niggers go home.” A boycott of classes by South Boston students lasted the entire year; many parents kept their children home because they were afraid. The words and pictures are all too familiar. In our minds, they belong more to the alleged bigotry of the South, rather than to the city called the “cradle of liberty”. Boston has always had a history of political reform. The home of many great universities, Boston was the first city in the United States to start a public school system. It has a spirit of racial picture tolerance that can be traced back as far as abolition, which took root in Boston in the 1830’s. Even before ,the Civil War, black men in the city won the right fo vote, sit as jurors, testify in court, and intermarry with white women. In 1855, nearly a century before Brown vs. the Board of Education made integrated schools the law of the land, Massachusetts rejected the “seperate but equal” doctrine, instead passed a law in discrimination forbidding admission to public schools. Continues Despite the city’s history of reform, the black population of Boston has continually faced discrimination and has been confined to the Boston ghettos, much as it has been in every other major city. The so-called “black belt” cuts through Boston from Back Bay, through Roxbury and North Dorchester. It is here that the majority of Boston’s 105,000 blacks live. Ten years ago this was a middle class white neighborhood; today the few remaining whites are mostly elderly homeowners. The area is characterized by low incomes and a high crime rate, topped off by prostitution and drugs.

South integration - Wednesday, 1 October 1975 . The Spectrum Page seven �weekly special EditPrial I i U Another election? Every few months, the various student associations hold elections that are geared towards their particular constituencies. Most of the time, students do not hear of these elections until the day they are run, students are not sure exactly who is eligible to vote, and students are not familiar with the pandidates or the issues and therefore don't bother to vote. Tomorrow marks a first-time event at this University. It is the day when the entire student body is eligible to vote in the same election not just undergraduates or graduate students, but Millard Fillmore College, law, medical, and dental students as well. The purpose of this election is to choose one person out of 27,000 to represent our student body at College Council meetings. Despite opposition from the SUNY Board of Trustees, College Councils and Community College Boards of Trustees across the state, a bill was passed by the New York State legislature last summer that requires each State University campus to have a non-voting student member sitting on its College Council. This represents a substantial victory for students in their efforts to exert more control in decisions that directly affect their education. The College Council is responsible for recommending appointments to the Chancellor, including for University President, reviewing all major University plans regarding faculty, students, admissions, academics, etc., and drawing up regulations governing the conduct and safety of students. Our representative will be awarded full membership privileges (except voting rights), including speaking privileges, the right to attend Executive sessions, make motions, place items on the agenda, and the right of access to all information dealing with the administration and — University policies. This year, the candidates for the position are Jim Smith, Mark Martin, Floyd Seligman, and undergraduate Student Association President Michele Smith who is running by consensus of all the student associations. All votes will be write-in and ballots may be obtained from any one of the many polling sites that will be stationed in key buildings throughout the University. So, student body, you know there is an election tomorrow, you know exactly who is eligible to vote, and you know the names of the candidates and the issue at hand. Unfortunately, you don't know any background information on three of the four candidates and you have no idea how they plan to do their jobs. Neither do we, neither does the Student Association, and because of this, we make no endorsement. The Spectrum 19 Vol. 26, No. WASHINGTON Much of the responsibility for the two recent attempts on President Ford’s life, some experts believe, must go to the White House and the CIA. The reason: They have made — assassination respectable by routinely practicing it. The CIA, as we first reported four and a half years ago, made numerous attempts to knock off Premier Fidel Castro of Cuba. There have been reports, furthermore, that the agency was involved in the deaths of Congo strongman Patrice Lumumba and Dominican Republic ‘ dictator Rafael Trujillo. Recently* the Washington Post revealed that a “high official” in the Nixon White House once ordered Watergate conspirator E. Howard Hunt to assassinate me. The plot was to be perpetrated with a powerful, untraceable poison supplied by a former CIA physician. It stands to reason, then, that revoluntionaries, or anyone with a cause, would be encouraged by the actions of their leaders. Psychologists call this phenomenon “modeling.” It is the very reason why movie stars and well-known athletes are chosen to advertise everything from pantyhose to coffee-makers. According to Sanford University’s renowned social psychologist Phillip Zimbardo, extensive research has demonstrated that when “powerful models” behave a certain way, their behavior becomes exemplary. People who read about White House orders to poison Jack Anderson or CIA attempts to kill Castro, Zimbardo told us, themselves begin to consider assassination “a viable alternative.” When potential assassins see government officials escape punishment, furthermore, it reinforces their conviction that assassination is a respectable act. At this moment, a Justice Department spokesman told us, government lawyers are “very vigorously” pursuing the possibility of prosecuting CIA officials who were responsible for assassinations of foreign leaders. Federal attorneys are also “studying laws” to see if anyone can be prosecuted for ordering my assassination. It is highly unlikely, however, that a former CIA director or high White House official will wind up in the jug for such acts, or Sarah Moore for attempting to kill a public figure when prominent officials go free for ordering precisely the same thing? It is an interesting legal argument, experts have told us one which could well be raised by lawyers for both of the would-be assassins. — Fuddle Factory Our continuing bureaucracy has investigation of the turned up a few more items: -The federal choice labor Department recently inspected 11-story building in Washington and found it full of safety hazards. The inspectors discovered faulty fire extinguishers and dark emergency exits. Overall, they listed more than 300 safety violations. The tenant: the Occupational Safety an and Health Administration. -Due to a massive administration foul-up in the Environmental Protection Agency, some 10,000 EPZ booklets were sent by mistake to a farm office in Missouri. The farmers don’t want the pamphlets, but they can’t afford the return by Jack Anderson with Joe Spear And they can’t burn them because it would violate the EPA’s clean aid standards. At last report, they were using the crates of booklets' as pedestals for plywood work tables. postage. Juggling act In his battle to reduce goverment regulation of business, President Ford has charges that unnecessary and ineffective government regulations cost each American family about $2,00 per year. He has never cited the source of his statistics. An investigation by Rep. John Moss, D Calif., however, indicates Ford may be juggling the figures to make his point. Moss found the White House was totally ignoring the money saved by government regulation of business. Ford focused on costs only, thus presenting a distorted figure. — KJan Calling The infamous Ku Klux Klan is once again raising its cross. Down in Denham Springs, La., the Klan has been sending nasty letters to people they think are wrongdoers. One white man, for example, was instructed to break up the romance between his daughter and a black youth. Another was ordered to pay his “store bills.” Occasionally the Klan makes a house call. If no one is home, they leave a calling card. “You have been paid a friendly visit by the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan,” says the menacing message. “Should we pay you a real visit?” Lethal Lettuce All those stories about CIA attempts to assassinate world leaders with exotic poisons is really nothing new. The CIA predecessor, the old Office of Strategic Services, tried to knock off Adolf Hitler during World War II.

Any organization in which people interact js bound to have “political” problems. A student government has an additional “burden” in that it has a quasi-legal structure that can be used or misused for a person’s personal advantage. It is to alleviate this very problem that the new Student Senate was created. Assemblymen represented, and were responsible to, no one but themselves. This led to countless ego trips, and innumerable political battles in the Assembly. Sure we had election hassles but we will also You know who you are To the Editor.

If you knew that, you might figure there’d be a letter or two in the next issue of The Spectrum about your “prank” or “gig” or whatever you want to call what you think you did. I wonder what you think you - have a Student Senate on October first, which is the earliest a University student legislative body has been organized in many years. All the task forces have had two meetings at this date. Those meetings concerned themselves with issues libraries in Academics, legal services in Student Affairs, student services in Activities, just to name a few. not And look at who is getting involved from the but representatives “hacks,” just academic clubs, activity groups, and the general student body. There are a lot of new faces this year in Student Association and I credit that to the new Constitution. The Executive Committee will provide the leadership on University-wide issues. Most important at this moment is tomorrow’s elections for the University College Council. For the first time, students will have access to the closed door meetings at which so much of University policy is decided. Student Association should be there, and will be there to represent the students’ interests. The University budget and academic planning are priorities, and we will be working towards more student input in these matters. Student government is very frustrating. There are many problems to be tackled and much to do. One is tempted to follow the directive of the Cheshire Cat. But I believe that this year’s Student Association docs have that direction necessary to start to work on the problems of this University. I have my own priorities for Student Association, which I’ll discuss at the first Senate meeting, and, I hope, in future Guest Opinions . But the new year is just beginning.

Let us first consider why there are more buses to Governors than Ellicott. Governors* besides being tucked away in a corner of Amherst, is solely a residential/dinmg area. All of its residents are therefore forced to take buses to all of their classes, or make the walk to Ellicott or O’Brian. Is this inconvenience being treated fairly? Since most undergraduates have at least one (if not more) class at Ellicott, the need for Ellicott bus service should be less, considering the numbers living in EllicotL As stated above, Governors is more or less stranded in the midst of Amherst. Ellicott, on the other hand, abounds in all the facilities necessary for academic and social life. Governors is devoid of Student Clubs, libraries, theaters, large lounges, pizzarias, et. al. Again, is this equal treatment? Yet, there is one equalizer: the bus service. By the increased service to Governors, its residents are able to avail themselves of the things Ellicott residents take for granted.

While i am aware of a certain animosity between the two factions, I still believe that Mr. Niman is asking for too much too soon. The bus service I have observed at Eltfcott after classes there overwhelms me m comparison to the Governors service. While there may be only one bus here, there is commonly a pact of buses at Ellicott. Finally, if there is to be any bitching-as to the bus service, I challenge Mr. Niman to successfully go from Governors to Ellicott y .* via Blue Bird and get to classes on time. ; Robert Wanerman I M£M) poyou iOHAT host likb in po OOITH WR 60lFe^ \'l) I me w w/efc m m ewiou (OH J. v fc 1 'll enonop ?

Lastly, the routes proposed are unnaturally biased in favor of the Ellicott residents. The students who must commute to O’Briain/Baldy are forgotten in this scenario. Mr. Niman has neglected to mention that' a substantial proportion of those riding the Governors routes get off at O’Brian.

Local lawmakers and federal government dispute welfare by Marty Buchsbaum Spectrum Staff Writer Erie County lawmakers have taken issue with an action by the Orange County, New York Legislature, challenging the federal government on the question of who should pay for welfare and social service costs. The confrontation between Orange County and came to a head over the summer, when local funds for welfare ran out. The normal procedure would have been for the Orange County to appropriate more money ($1.5 Legislature million, in this case) in a supplemental budget. Instead, the legislature decided to withhold the extra money, arguing that although the federal government pays up to one-half of a locality’s social service funds, the burden of all payments should fall solely on the Washington lawmakers. Because the action of the Orange County Legislature left over 20,000 people without the benefits of Medicaid and other social service needs, the New York State Social Service Department Washington Commentary Attica trial continues to reveal brutality by Dana Dubbs Spectrum Staff Writer On September 10, 1971, Charles “Flip” Crowley stood in Attica Prison’s D Yard and shouted to 1200 inmates and a horde of television cameras, “If we cannot live like human beings, then we can at least try to die like men.” On September 25, 1975, Flip Crowley sat in the Erie County Courthouse in behalf of Attica defendant, Jomo Joka Omowale. aka Eric Thompson, and testified to the acts of brutality he underwent and witnessed in the days during and immediately following the bloody prison rebellion. Omowale, indicted on charges of kidnap and murder, is presently involved in a hearing to determine if selective prosecution exists in his case and if the charges against him will be dismissed. With tears in his eyes, Crowley, now a student at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice in Manhattan, told how he had been beaten, sodomized and verbally abused by state troopers and correction officers. “They took their sticks and they stuck it in my behind. They said. ‘You’re a faggot and we’re gonna screw you.’ My bowels broke and the mess was all over the floor and 1 was made to sleep in it. The officers were standing outside laughing at it,” he said. Brutality Crowley also recalled how he had been brought to an upstairs room in the prison hospital and surrounded by various correction officers who proceeded to hit and beat him. “They were beating me about the head and face with clubs and sticks. It continued for more than an hour in that room. They said, ‘You’re dead, nigger.’ They made me crawl around the floor and bark like a dog. They made me kiss their feet and shout white power. They put a sign on the door saying I had TB and no one was to enter. Throughout the day I was visited by officers. They were very upset about the speech.” In further testimony, Crowley related how correction officers brought a black inmate into a cell across the corridor from him. He related how on the 13th, “they came into that room, Wilson and two other officers. They came into the room and picked up this inmate and brought him over in this sheet and slung him up to the wall. I don't know if he was dead or not, but when they slung him up to the window, there was a blood stain that lasted two or three weeks.” quickly became involved, going to court to force Orange County to appropriate additional welfare money. Questions raised At the time the Orange County lawmakers took action, they sent letters to all the other county legislatures in New York, asking the legislators to follow suit. Here in Erie County, the legislature sent back a polite refusal. After a recent meeting of the Erie County Social Services Committee, the legislators sat down to discuss the events surrounding the Orange County controversy. All agreed that the actions taken in Orange County were irresponsible. “It was not ethical of them, or even legal, to stop the funds without knowing where further funds would come from,” said Susan Lubick, a legislator whose district covers a good part of Buffalo. “Their goal is admirable. 1 think most of us on the committee would like to see the federal government play a larger role, maybe a solo role, but there are proper means to achieve that goal and they did not follow those means.” Larger percentage Richard Slisz. a legislator from Lancaster, agrees that the federal government should pay a larger percentage of welfare costs, but, he says, the Orange “only hurting those was Legislature County recipients who are most m need.” when they cut off to make their point. Norman Wolfe, another Lancaster legislator, feels that the action of the grange County Legislature was “a means of political grandstanding.” He points out that a similar funding problem exists in Erie County but “we’ve handled it in the proper fashion; we’ve appropriated additional funds.” funds The Social Services Committee Chairman, Roger feels there’s a danger when a Blackwell, the needs of the people sacrifices body governmental to make a point. “The moral obligation of any government is to serve the people, and when you deny them that service, then you deny their rights. Those of us in government have a different road to travel, we have guy many means at our disposal that the little he have,” said. doesn’t Federal takeover Blackwell, however, unlike his colleagues, is not sure that a federal takeover of welfare funding is a desirable thing. He agrees that it would be nice if the federal government were to completely fund these programs as long as the locality retained the right of implementing the mechanisms by which the funds are distributed. The problems connected with a federal bureaucracy bother him. “It is difficult enough for the little guy to get through the maze of paperwork and the problems of getting service. If the federal government ends up taking over the entire system, there have to be all kinds of mechanisms to solve the problems that the federal government turns its back on. “The mother who doesn’t get her check can now come to someone in local government, but if the federal government took over, there’s no place for her to go,” he pointed out. Wolfe agrees that “the closer we keep the mechanics of servicing social service recipients to grassroots, the better off we are.” However, he points out that certain states, like New York and California, offer higher welfare payments to recipients than others, and there are many people who come here to be eligible for these higher benefits. We therefore end up paying the welfare costs which other states should be paying, he noted. Federal guidelines The only fair solution, he says, is to “distribute social service grants with equity, and that can only be done if it is predicated on a federal philosophy or federal guideline. I’d like to see the federal government set up federal guidelines in terms of total funding, and yet have local autonomy in terms of administration.” Lubick and Slisz ajso agree that there must be some local control over the distribution of funds, even if the federal government supplies them alone. out that local However, points Lubick implementation does not necessarily mean an effective job will be done. “We have not done the kind of job, in terms of providing services, that we could be doing in this county,” Lubick said. “The complete federal takeover could be a desirable situation in this particular instance, although I would not like to see it.” Obtaining information Crowley testified that during an interview with stage investigator Francis Keenan, he told Keenan of the abuse he had seen and undergone. He claimed that Keenan’s reply was, “How can we indict obtaining correction officers when we need their cooperation in information from inmates.” Concerning events in D Yard, prosecuting attorney Francis Cryan asked Crowley why he had given testimony to the Grand Jury which differed from the testimony he now gave. Crowley replied, “I told the Wyoming County Grand Jury what you told me to tell them. They asked questions you tdld me would be asked and I answered the way you told me to answer.” Afternoon testimony brought former inmate Robin Palmer to the stand. Also testifying on behalf of the defense, Palmer claimed that he was with inmate Sam Melville in D Yard on the 13th. The inmates were to given the warning to put their hands on their heads and surrender the -Melville was shot in Palmer, According officer. to the nearest process of surrendering. Palmer also cited incidents in which inmates believed to be the ringleaders were stripped, marked with X’s on their backs and beaten. At the close of Palmer’s testimony, the prosecution was granted a motion to adjourn court until Monday, October 6. By this date, the outcome of the long-awaited Meyer report is expected to be known. If it is proven that selective prosecution exists in the Attica cases, the charges against Omowale are expected to be dismissed. In addition, Governor Hugh Carey is expected to begin steps toward granting amnesty to all the indicted inmates, if it is shown that possible police crimes were ignored by the prosecution.

The tournament, hosted by Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), was staged on a wet, tricky course which had various affects on the scores. “The course helped the bad golfers,” said Buffalo coach Bill Dando. “They were able to tee it (the ball) up in the rough area.” Unfair fairway By the same token though, the soggy grass hampered the shots of the better golfers, causing some significant changes in the expected standings. It should be noted that there were only ten strokes between first place RIT (311) and the seventh place Bulls (321). Individually, the Bulls’ shooting was better than it has been this season, although team leader Mike Hirsch is still not playing at his proper level. According to Dando, “Hirsch should be down a little lower, but hell get there.” Hirsch shot a 78 at Brook Lea, as did teammate Greg Andzel. While these 78’s may seem to be a little high for leading scores, Dando pointed out that the Brook Lea course was long and tough, and that the week’s rainy weather didn’t help the scores either. Qualifier this week The Bulls’ next major tournament will be the ECAC Qualifier at Colgate University on October 4. The qualifier determines who will go to the ECAC Championship Finals held in Doylestown, Pa. on October 15th. Dando feels that the Buffalo golfers will do a good job in the qualifying round, noting that much of the competition consists of teams that were at (he Brook Lea Tournament. “The kids are shaping up. There can be a ten-stroke swing anytime," the Buffalo coach said of the point differential at R1T. With the Bulls' golfers progress continuing, and with a little help from the weather. Bill Dando’s assessment of the team’s chances may very well become reality.

Potential champs Bulls shutout Canisius in win The soccer Bulls took a giant step toward becoming the first Big Four conference champs in any sport ever as they shutout Canisius 3-0 on Saturday. This win. coupled with Buffalo's 2-1 triumph over Buffalo Slate on September 17, makes the Bulls 2-0 in Big Four competition and sets up a big match against Niagara here on October 8. Senior Mark Karrer was the key figure in the Bulls' victory as he scored two goals against the Griffins. Karrer, who hails from Snyder, spent his first two years of school at Michigan Slate before transferring to Buffalo, Goaltender Brian Smaszcz got the shutout, the Bulls' first of the year. The Cheektowaga freshman looks like he could be the surprise of the year for Buffalo. The win was the third this year for the Bulls against two defeats, but their won-lost record is somewhat deceiving. Leading scorer Emmanuel Kulu was ejected from the Bulls’ 3-2 loss to Syracuse, and the Bulls’ other loss was to number three ranked Hartwick. The Bulls' performances against defending Division 111 champs Brockport and against Albany. Binghamton, and Stony Brook in the SUNY Center Championship later this month will make or break the Bulls' season. One of the reasons the Tennis Bulls have won eleven matches in a row has been their great depth. And one of the reasons the Bulls are so deep is Athlete of the Week Rob Gurbacki. A graduate of Sweet Home High, Gurbacki regularly plays fourth singles and second doubles for Buffalo, but when Randy Murphy was excused for the match against St. Bonaventure, Gurbacki moved up one notch in both singles and doubles, and won both matches.

Nevertheless, McClain was not too happy. “This isn’t up one or two spots in the lineup.

' Monday, 29 September 1975 State University of New York at Buffalo Vol. 26, No. 18 Union attempting reforms for working grad students by Paul Krehbiel Contributing Editor The teaching and research that employed graduate students perform is considered a part of their education by most University administrators. But graduate students across the country are beginning to see themselves as workers, too, claiming that the jobs they do for pay are essential to the normal functioning of the university, and that the conditions of their work are negotiable. Organizers from graduate student unions at 16 major universities met in Ann Arbor several weeks ago for a two-day conference to share experiences and work out plans to consolidate their respective organizations. Representatives from the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) at the State University at Buffalo participated in the conference in hopes that it would help facilitate their current drive to win the right to represent the employed graduate students at this campus in negotiations with the state over wages, working conditions and for benefits. National conference The conference opened at the University of Michigan with a round table discussion, allowing each union to introduce itself and its history. At the one session, a panel of organizers gave presentations on the basic issues involved in organizing a union, and then broke down into small discussion groups to deal with specific problems. The following day, workshops were held on various topics, such as contract issues, structure of unions, education reforms, bargaining preedures and the participation of women in the union. Other workshops dealt with legal questions, politics and the unions, strikes and the graduate student union’s relationship to the trade union movement. Recognized unions Of special interest were (he presentations of two graduate student unions that have already won legal recognition through state-run elections, and that are presently working union union contracts. One is the Teaching Assistants Association (TAA) of the American Federation of Teachers, Local 3220 at Madison’s University of Wisconsin, now working under its fifth contract. The other is the Graduate Employees Organization (GEO), at Ann Arbor’s University of Michigan, now working unders its first contract, and the hosts of the conference. The TAA began as a graduate student organization in the spring of 1966 after a demonstration protesting the nation’s draft laws, in effect during most of the Vietnam war years. Because of the specifics of the law, to give a student a failing grade was equivalent to sending him to Vietnam, and many graduate teaching assistants opposed this because they opposed American involvement in the war. Protests increase In 1969, the Wisconsin legislature introduced a bill to rescind the out-of-state —continued on page 10— Dean’s statement j. f j | || ■ Colleges Dean Irving Spitz berg has upheld the position of the University administration in calling for an end to exculsionary enrollment practices in Women’s Studies College. Spitzberg’s opinion agrees with the SUNY Counsel agrument that exclusion on the basis of sex is outlawed by Title IX and HEW guidelines, and by sections of the New York Human Rights Law and the policies of the Board of Regents and the SUNY Board of Trustees. In a lengthy statement published in last Thursday’s Reporter, Spitzberg expressed hope that the College would not be terminated at the end of this semester, but warned that it was in great danger if the conditions set forth by the administration to clarify the College charter and guarantee against future discriminatory practices are not met. The statement was circulated to members of the Women’s Studies College in draft form during the week prior to publication. A seven page criticism was drawn up by the College in conjunction with the American Studies Department and returned to Spitzberg who reportedly reqrote portions of the statement taking some of the criticisms into account. Response Wednesday Representatives of Women’s Studies College were not prepared to release details of their criticisms at press time. They promised, however, to respond to Spitzberg’s statement in Wednesday’s issue of The Spectrum. Women’s Studies College currently offers five all-women courses including the introductory Women in Contemporary Society (WSC 213) which is the largest course in the College. According to Spitzberg’s statement in the Reporter, enrollment in the five exclusionary courses constituted most of the College’s total enrollment in 1974-75. In fall 1974, 93 percent of the College’s total enrollment was female. In the spring term of 1975, it was 97 percent female. “Without challenging the claim of discriminstation against women in the past and present, I cannot accept the argument justifying the exclusion of men from Women’s Studies courses. Past discrimination does not support present exclusion,” Spitzberg wrote. No relationship 9 Spitzberg pointed out that there is no logical relationship between the concept of affirmative action and the right to exclude a whole class of people. “Affirmative action does not imply a right to exclude a whole sex or ethnic group, regardless of educaitonal justifications in . ' -t * particular cases.” Women’s Studies College has contended that not allowing men to be excluded from certain classes infringes on the academic freedom of the College and its instructors. Members have defended the courses on the grounds that they do, in fact, contribute to an Affirmative Action program. They feel all-women courses are a redress for past discrimination against women in society and that they are not being used as reverse discrimination against men. But Spitzberg notes that depriving an instructor of the right to exclude in no way limits freedom of speech, and may be construed as increasing it. Competition He views the conflict as competition between freedom of instruction and equal opportunities for students. “Regardless of one’s ethical system,” Spitzberg wrote. “the exclusion of a whole class of persons from a course on the basis of an accident of birth is unfair to the whole class,” especially where the attendance of men will affect the women to a degree which is “at present and highly problematic.” “The College should immediately begin to prepare alternatives to its exclusionary courses, which will maintain the strengths of the present at the least cost to the integrity of an educationally-effective offering,” Spitzberg said. Spitzberg maintained that the rule against exclusion should not prevent the College from using categories of race, age, class or sex to increase the diversity of its classes, if the general rule for class composition is first come first serve. “Discrimination in favor of diversity at the margin is quite different from discrimination in the form of class exclusion,” he noted. Cautions voiced Spitzberg went on to say he felt that funds for the College should not be cut off unless its revised charter is shown to be clearly in violation of relevant law or University policy. He cautioned the University to exercise restraint in its dealings with the College so as not to devastate the affirmative action character of the College as it exists. He pointed out that the language of Title IX allows an exemption for long established women’s colleges because it is possible to identify them easily and clearly, but Women’s Studies does not fall under this exemption because it is part of a coed institution. The controversy over the all-women’s classes began when Executive Vice President Albert Somit, in Irving Spitzberg accordance with a legal interpretation from the SUNY Counsel, informed the College that several courses which provide for “women only” enrollment violate HEW Title IX guidelines and/or New York State Human Rights Law. Title IX, which went into effect on July 21, 1975, is part of a 1972 anti-sex discrimination law which assures that no person will be excluded from participation in any course of educational program on the basis of sex. The SUNY Central administartion is expected to issue in the next few weeks a SUNY-wide policy regarding application of Title IX guidelines to existing programs. * « � • * Representatives of Women’s Studies College met with President Robert Ketter last Wednesday to settle the last few technicalities involved before final ratification of the charter. College members said these changes were minor and would not compromise the charter or the College’s position. They noted that the meeting last week may serve as a precendent for the College and the administration to deal reasonably with each other on future issues. �Campus Directory student listing this year due to increased budget cut The campus directory will not list the addresses or phone numbers of students this year due to budget cuts. Westley Rowland, Vice President for University Relations, said that because his budget was cut ten thousand dollars, printing student Istings was financially impossible. Also eliminated from the directory was the. departmental roster, which is a listing of all the staff members of each department.

VOTE TODAY ELECTIONS Non residential Colleges not j hurt by chartering process by Mike McGuire Contributing Editor • J • The rigorous chartering process weathered by the University’s Collegiate System last year has not significantly altered its operation, an informal investigation by The Spectrum has revealed. “Chartering was supposed to make us legitimate” in the eyes of the University community, “but we’re considered no more legitimate now than we were before maybe less,” said Howie Kling, a member of the Social Sciences College Executive Committee. The Colleges were led to believe that the enhanced “legitimacy” resulting from the chartering process would lead to increased budgets. This was a false assumption, Kling maintained. There are seven residential Colleges which are located in the Ellicott Complex on the North Campus, and four “non-residential” Colleges located on Winspear Avenue and in Crosby Hall. Social Sciences College is the only non-residential unit that has suffered a substantial enrollment decline since it was chartered last January. There are only 163 students registered this semester, as opposed to 298 last spring. The College is dedicated to teaching radical social theory, and is located at 180Winspear.

CONN . r ‘ More students expected Kling told The Spectrum that the enrollment drop was not caused by a loss of appeal by the College, but rather was part of a general trend that larger College enrollment is always experienced in the spring semester. Almost 200 students registered last fall, for example, while about 300 enrolled in the spring. Additionally, the Social Sciences College was affected by incorrect course listings printed in The Reporter last May, Kling said, which compounded the Colleges’ internal problems. Kling explained that a third reason for lower enrollments was the absence of the College-wide course catalog until well past the initial registration period. In past years, catalog listing all of the courses offered by the Colleges was readily available. College F, also known as Tolstoy College, is located at 264 Winspear Avenue and is devoted to the study of anarchism, communities and male sex roles. The College was also hit with initially low registration numbers this semester, but an active campaign to inform students of the College’s programs has resulted in the current enrollment of 141 students, according to coordinatory Charlie Haynie. This compares to a total of 154 last spring. Great demand The College of Urban Studies, on the other hand, maintained its high enrollment of last spring, and has even turned away more than 100 students so far this fall. The College’s success may be attributed to its ability to attract well-known community figures to teach its courses, such as State Supreme Court Justice Joseph Mattina, Leo Donovan, head of the Buffalo Police Department’s' Homicide Squad, - . — * — Page two The Spectrum Monday, 29 September 1975 Fargo Desk in Ellicott 636-2295 However, the numbers of students living off campus are not available from University operators and will have to be obtained from the Buffalo phone book or by dialing directory assistance. *| Paid Pol Ad.

Urban Studies College academic coordinators Bob Budiansky and Steve Schwartz said enrollment in the College is currently more than 600 and is expected to be still higher when final registration figures are determined. Women’s Studies College has been a steady source of controversy. After receiving a conditional charter from President Robert Ketter last spring, Women’s Studies was told by Executive Vice President Albert Somit this past summer that the College had to terminate five “women-only” classes by August 15 or else the College would be closed by the fall. The deadline was changed to October 15 “Wpwsantatives from the College pointed out that the 'courses in question had already been approved by the proper University committees last fall, and that many students had already been registered. Enrollment in the College this fall is comparable to last spring. Women’s Studies College has traditionally been the in spotlight because of its study of the woman’s role in society taught from a feminist perspective. The College is located at 108 Winspear. No difference Like Kling in Social Sciences College, students and teachers in Women’s Studies and College F deny that the charteiing process has made any difference in their College’s activities. Steve Schwartz of Urban Studies said the only change was the addition of courses that were formerly in the disbanded College Z (Law and Society College). The chartering process was mandated by the “Reichert Prospectus” developed in 1974,which was described by its supporters as a way of ensuring the academic “legitimacy” of the Collegiate System. Amidst fears by members of some Colleges that the Prospectus was an attempt to decimate the Collegiate System, the University-wide Chartering the Committee rejected only of the 12 Colleges New College of Progressive Education and invited that College to re-apply after a semester as a non-credit workshop. Women’s Studies College was granted a five-year charter conditioned on eliminating so-called “exclusionary” clauses from their charter and requiring that it first submit any proposed all-women courses to the Division of Undergraduate Education Curriculum Committee for approval. But Ketter warned Women’s Studies, as well as Social Sciences College and College F, that they had better exercise discretion “similar to that of Caesar’s wife” when teaching courses that are ideologically biased. Ketter also scheduled reviews of Social Sciences College and College.,!; ,in January 1976 to look for violations of “academic freedom,” as well as to examine Women’s Studies in fall 1976 to ensure there is no discrimination against males. Also, Urban Studies is scheduled for a “limited review” at that time to see if the College maintained a consistent academic quality. — — �Nina Shalom The I&Aei Information Center, in cooperation the American Zionist Youth Foundation, presents Nina Shalom next week. On Sunday, September 28 at 9 p.m., she will speak at the Buffalo State College Hillel House, 1209 Elmwood Avenue, on Monday, September 29 at 12 noon in the Fillmore Room. Shalom is an Iraqui Jew who is well versed on the subject of the oppression of lews in Arab lands. with Wiesel speaks highly of the Jewish youth by Faith Prince Special to The Spectrum world has learned its lessons from the Holocaust. “1 am a pessimist when it comes to the world an optimist only when it comes to our people.” And what is the role of the Jew in this world? “To be Jewish. To affirm one’s Jewish identity in the fullest way. Not opposed to society but as a fire, affirming society, lighting society, knowing society. To affirm the past.” — Author Elie Wiesel is a storyteller and he began his lecture Thursday night in the Fillmore Room with a story. He told of a little boy who decides to search for the truth, believing truth to be a beautiful woman. He searches fruitlessly until finally, old and exhausted, he meets her face to face. She is not beautiful; she is ugly. But what could he do? She was truth. As with all of Wiesel’s stories, this one teaches a lesson. “We try to tell the truth and the truth is Bedtime story He closed his talk as he opened it woth a story. “The celebrated Vilna Gaon said, T h e m o s t difficult commandment of the - “ often ugly.” “We live in a society that is totally dehumanized,” Wiesel observed. “The past gives you shame and the future, a sneer. We live in a world where man goes to the moon and doesn’t know his neighbor. We live in a world where ancient hatreds come to the foreground again . . . We are doomed by our own indifference to our fate.” All is not lost In spite of all this, Wiesel Still retains hope and he gives the evidence to support his hope. “1 believe that Jewish youth and perhaps youtty in general have done things in my generation that their parents have not done.” He spoke of the ghetto fighters and the Palestine Underground. “At one point they decided, ‘We have to take Jewish history on our shoulders.’ These were young people who had 2,000 years of exile on their shoulders and suddenly they had the courage to say to themselves, No! Enough!” This youthful energy and determination continues through today according to Wiesel. He spoke of the young Jews in the Soviet Union, denied a Jewish education but indomitable in Jewish spirit. “Who would have believed it of these kids, born three generations after the Revolution, who never had a chance to learn about Judaism?” he asked. Elie Wiesel Torah is, we must rejoice during the festivities.’ ‘Why is this so difficult? “Because there were times, twenty, thirty years ago when Jews couldn’t rejoice, and yet they did. “I remember, in those places, one Simhat Torah. The Rabbi said we must dance with the Torah. “You.re crazy! we said. ‘Where do we get a Sefer Torah here?' “Suddenly he saw young boy of fourteen. He took him in his arms and said, ‘You are Torah,’ and began dancing. “Though it was with such a sad joy what a pure joy it was!” The message from this story? “To those here around us because we can and because we will do what they have done we must rejoice, as commanded on Simhat Torah. Amen.” SA elections termed invalid; the decision will be appealed by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor The Student-Wide Judiciary declared unanimously that the election for six resident student positions in the Student Senate is invalid, and directed the Student Association (SA) to hold new elections as soon as possible. However, SA Elections and Credentials Officer Stephanie Wonder promised that the decision will be appealed. The Judiciary awarded its decision to Senate candidates Bert Black and Nick Collins, who brought the case before the panel. Black and Collins had posted campaign signs allegedly carrying false information pertaining to athletic budget expenditures. The two claim they obtained this information from Financial Committee member Mike Jones. � » Incorrect information Student Athletic Review Board (SARB) Chairperson Dennis Delia noticed the signs, and called Black and the SA office to complain. According to Black, after Delia warned him that he was going to challenge his candidacy and demand a letter of retraction. Black told Collins to first confirm the information about the budget with Jones and then to consult another person familiar with the SA budget to double-check. Black claims he told Collins that if the information was found to be the least bit questionable, then he should take the signs down. After checking with Jones and SA President Michele Smith, Collins found the information to be incorrect, but when he went to remove the signs he found they were already gone. Delia claims he removed the signs himself to present to Wonder. “I knew if I left them there and then complained, they would disappear,” he said, “and then I would have no proof of my allegations.” Ad hoc committee Black and Collins composed a letter of retraction which appeared in the Friday issue of The Spectrum. Later that day, Delia presented a letter of complaint to Wonder, challenging Black and Collins’ candidacies. Wonder called together a committee consisting of Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde, Director for Student Affairs Steve Schwartz, and Vice President for Sub Board Bruce Campbell. Black, Collins and Delia were informed there would be a hearing at noon Friday, when the committee would decide whether or not Black and Collins should be disqualified from the election. Black claims he was informed of the meeting’s time only two hours before, and thus did not have “the presence of mind” to call witnesses. “I wasn’t even told what it was for,” he said. “I have a class at [y ■ “And sometimes when people ask me, thfnking that I have the answer, what is the future of the American Jewish youth, I like to say, ‘If Russian Jewish youth gave instead of us hope disillusionment, why should I anything less from expect American Jewish youth? It took us years to awaken the American Jewish community (to the plight of Soviet Jewry), and do you know who did it? The young people, high school students!” Reading from his play, Zalmen or the Madness of God , in which the outcry of an old Russian rabbi is ignored, Wiesel related that»“An act of one man can change more men than himself. One act of one outcry of truth courage will change other people.” Nonetheless, the survivor of Auschwitz does not believe the — - , A technicality The Judiciary said it “does not disagree” with the decision to disqualify the two candidates, but felt the important issue was the denial of due process in the making of a “hasty” decision by an unofficial committee. Wonder and Delia claimed the Judiciary evaded the main issue and ruled on a technicality, Since the Judiciary also ruled that an appeal could not be brought before it.

Denied due process The Judiciary ruled that the SA constitution requires an Elections and Credentials Committee, composed of members approved by the Student Senate, to decide election disputes. The only such person on the ad hoc committee approved by last year’s Student Assembly was Wonder. “Webster defines a committee as a group or panel,” the Judiciary members said, and thus Wonder, even though approved by the Assembly last year as Elections and Credentials Officer, did not constitute an Election and Credentials Committee. “Therefore, we find that Black and Collins were denied due process,” they said. The Judiciary had issued a restraining order to prevent Wonder from disqualifying Black and Collins from the election, but by that time, Schwartz already posted signs saying they were ineligable. Black and Collins brought the case to the Judiciary, claiming their chances of winning the election were damaged by the signs, and asking for a new election. The results of the voting were never announced. | I VOTE TODAY elections ilFFI IS ‘bil that time.” Delia and Collins testified before the committee, and Black came later. Black and Collins claimed they did not put false information on their signs intentionally, but acted on the advice of a person they believed was knowledgable. Wonder said, however, that Student Assembly minutes showed Black was present at a meeting where the Athletic Budget was discussed, and that copies of the budget were distributed. Thus, she felt, he should have been aware of what the budget said. Black replied that being at a meeting “in body” does not mean a person is totally aware of everything that happens and is said. “Also, part of the budget was passed in March,” he said. Black was present at a meeting in May. Delia contended that Black and Collins should not have depended on Jones’ expertise. “If anyone should have been asked, it should have been myself or Carol Block,” he said. Block is SA Treasurer, and Delia is SA Athletic Treasurer. Jones was on the Assembly Finance Committee, he said, which did not deal with the Athletic Budget at all. - Activities RAY’S 3205 Bailey Ave. in room 233 Norton (At Stockbridge) Feast your eyes on Buffalo's most interesting assortment of antiques.

An eligibility revision made early last year will bar students from middle and upper-class households from the food stamp program. New Agriculture Department regulations require that students whose parents claim them as income tax dependents be dropped from the program unless their parents are also receiving food stamps. The ban applies to students more than 18 years old who attend any post-secondary institution and get more than half of their income from a household with too much money to qualify for food stamps. Accurate figures on how many students will be eliminated by the change in regulations are unavailable, according to department officials, but some non-government studies have shown that “many thousands” of students receive food stamps, officials added. Changes postponed Although the eligibility change was sent to county and state administrators in February, difficulties in implementing the changes have forced many states to postpone any policy changes until this fall, department official said. Food stamp program administrators felt a crack-down was needed, according to Bob Welch, a food program supervisor, because “so many people claimed that college students were abusing the program. There was so much bad publicity about students that we wanted to do something to assure people that the needy are the people being served by the food stamp program.” Welch squelching stamps said the change was “one way of the idea some people had that food were being abused.” This year’s change in eligibility is receiving less opposition than another Congressional restriction , 1971 which was designed to eliminate students from the program. That policy change, “written specifically to get at students and eliminate hippies,” according to department spokesperson, was struck down by the Supreme Court. The Court ruled that the restriction was too broad, and would cut groups other than students from the food stamp rolls as well. passed in by Anthony Schmitz Special to The Spectrum To qualify Students who aren’t claimed by their parents as tax exemptions will still receive food stamps if they meet income qualifications. Currently anyone with an adjusted monthly income of $215 or less is eligible to receive food stamps. Scholarships are deductable if they go to meet educational expenses, and adjustments are made to account for medical costs, rent, child care and other expenses. A $ 1500 limit is set on the amount of liquid and non-liquid assets a food stamp recipient could keep and continue to be eligible. Liquid assets are savings accounts, checking accounts or other readily convertible sources of income. Non-liquid assets could includ luxury items, such as a boat, that could be converted into cash less easily. Personal possessions such as a car or stereo are not counted as assets under eligibility requirements, however. Students still eligible for food stamps could be left completely out in the cold if a bill introduced by Sen. James L. Buckley (R -N.Y.) is passed. Buckley claimed that students at colleges and other post-secondary institutions are volunetarily unemployed, he maintained. Buckley recommended that students be eliminated from the food stamp rolls altogether. The bill is scheduled for hearings beginning in and according to Robert Grippin, a legislative assistant for Buckley, the “bill should not be dismissed” as another piece of legislation that will languish in Congress. Fliminating students from the food stamp rolls has become an “extermely popular” idea in Congress, he said, and warned that the response to the bill “should not he underestimated.” Illegal search alleged at the Stone’s concert by Pat Quinlivan October, SckuAAme iAietA nc. SL CU J MEMBERSHIP BASH!!! Tuesday, Sept.30 -7:30 pm in the Fillmore Room The New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU) has lodged a with the Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department, regarding the conduct of Erie County Sheriff Michael Amico and his deputies at the Rolling Stones’ concert at Rich Stadium on August 8. Ira Glasser, Executive Director of the NYCLU, officially issued the complaint, which charged that the Sheriff’s Department “systematically and without probable cause conducted a general search, of many young people” who attended the rock concert. The complaint observes that actions of this ilk have previously been alleged, and offers the hope “that any investigation of these particular charges would include an attempt to determine whether a pattern or practice of illegal conduct by Sheriff Amico exists.” The Sheriff’s Office informed The Spectrum that Amico would be at a convention all week, and would not be available-for comment. complaint Later dismissed Approximately 85 persons were arrested in connection with the concert. Most of these arrests were “later dismissed or adjourned in contemplation of dismissal,” the complaint points out. A number of affidavits and statements attached to the complaint note that personal searches and searches of cars were conducted at random among those driving and walking to the stadium. Some claimed that young people were physically and verbally abused by the deputies. These statements “all allege facts which, if true, would clearly show that the arrests were based on illegal searches, made without probable cause,” Glasser says. One of the attached statements, given by Randy and Claudia House, relates that they had just left their van in the stadium parking lot, when, “apparently without probable cause, several sheriff’s deputies approached, seized several youngsters, beat two, arrested one, and towed the van away.” The van had not been returned as of the date of the statement. Illegal general search (First Floor Norton) The complaint contends that the compiled statements and affidavits “establish a pattern of an illegal general search sufficient to justify a thorough investigation of civil rights violations by the Civil BEER & PRETZLES V ■■WINE & CHEES D l\t ll City Editor CLUB INFO. Rights Division.” The NYCLU is interested, Glasser explains, “not only because we wish to remedy what happened, but also because we wish to discourage and prevent the same thing from happening again.” Some people have observed that the Rolling Stones’ concert was not the first affair at which such tactics were employed. The NYCLU alleges that “Sheriff Amico himself has shown little tendency to accept the notion of constitutional limits.” In addition, the complaint claims that Amico’s “most serious response to "public criticism of his conduct has been to charge the ACLU with subverting law and order and to threaten to provoke a federal investigation of us!” EQUIPMENT DISPLAYS Life-style harassment Come and see how we can offer you FREE SKIING! of private prejudice.” SKI CLUB - 318 NORTON - 831-2145 Glasser suggests that what the sheriff did was, “pure and simple, the harassment of the young based on life-style,” and proposes that, “the police power of the state must never be involved as an instrument The complaint refers in its concluding paragraph to a similar one regarding charges that excessive bail was set by Orchard Park Justice of the Peace Charles Schol, following the August 8 arrests. The ACLU ffeels the law officers’ conduct “may well amount to a conspiracy to deprive many of the concert-goers of their civil rights within the meaning of the Civil Rights Act.” Monday, 29 September 1975 .

The Commuter Club, and the Commuter Student Affairs Committee can easily be confused while trying to read a partially covered meeting notice on the way to a class already in progress. But members of both groups have attempted to distinguish theie responsibilities. Joe Novak, Spokesperson for the Commuter Club said, “We are a social organization dedicated to helping commuters get to know other commuters on campus.” All planned activities are of a social nature, such as hayrides, weekend camping trips to Allegheny Park and dances. The club is in the process of rewriting its constitution in order to receive funds from the Student Association. “Commuters live at home, virtually isolated from the rest of the campus. Club meetings and social involvement break the institutional tension in school,” Novak said. The Erie County Medical Society (ECMS) is investigating the use of advertising by physicians at the Erie County Medical Center • \ (Abortion Clinic). According to Richard Treccasse, Executive Director of the Medical Society, “it is illegal and unethical for physicians to advertise in New York State.” Standards of conduct forbid doctors in New York State to directly advertise theire services, or to be associated with a clinic or group practice which advertises.

For funds to be granted to an organization, it cannot duplicate the function of another organization. This is why the Commuter Club is concentrating on the social needs of the commuter and the Commuter Student Affairs Committee was designed to help students with problems in areas such as transportation and their feelings of alienation toward campus facilities. One member of the Club suggested a booth be opend in Norton Hall to inform people about what is going on for commuters. Club members have approved this idea. However, the group must defer all future plans until members see whether or not the club will be funded. The funding is expected to be approved when the Club’s constitution is “reworded to show a difference between the two groups,” Novak said.

Monte Blau succeeds acting Chairman Merrill Bender. Blau is a Research Professor of Nuclear Medicine and Biophysical Sciences at the University, and serves as a research scientist at Roswell Park Memorial Institute. Well-known for his contributions to nuclear medicine in the development of new radiopharmaceuticals and instrumentation, Blau has been a radiation medicine consultant to the government of India and the French Atomic Energy Commission. It is rare that a non-physician is appointed to head a department of nuclear medicine. it is just as important for a hospital to have a nuclear medicine department as an X-ray machine. The development of new radiopharmaceuticals for the pancreas, bones, and brain are Blau’s main interest. While there are no Ph.D. programs in nuclear medicine, graduate students who do research in the field receive degrees in Biology and Physics. But Blau said that an accredited course for technicians will probably start here within the year, pending approval by the State University. The course would be helpful because the University currently supplies seven hospitals with radiopharmaceuticals every day, which are prepared by only two technicians. Blau was also hopeful that a joint Ph.D. program in Pharmacology and nuclear medicine could be arranged. Promoted Department “The field of nuclear medicine is about 20 years old,” Blau explained. He added that the University established the Department a few years ago, promoting it from a division of radiology. “Buffalo is an important center for nuclear research. Interest in nuclear medicine and the use of isotopes has spread rapidly,” Blau stressed. Nuclear medicine is both a clinical discipline and a general diagnostic tool. In many cases it is used as a preliminary step in diagnosing brain tumors when regular X-rays may be ineffective. Blau explained that there are about ten departments of nuclear medicine in Buffalo, and that Special training Nuclear equipment, such as the Isotopy Scanner and Gamma Ray Camera cost tens of thousands of dollars, and these new instruments require technicians to be specially trained. “We are running an instrument quality control workshop for technicians from the hospitals of Buffalo to help them spot mistakes in the instruments,” Blau said. There is currently a training program for medical doctors who intend to specialize in nuclear medicine at the University. Some courses are also offered to third and fourth year medical students, as well as practicing physicians who just wish to familiarize themselves with the new methods. Driving, lighting and lying About 5 percent of the American (CPS) public surveyed lied when asked if they do anything to conserve energy, according to the Federal Energy Adminsitration (FEA). In a recently conducted survey, the FEA asked questions about what Americans are doing to save fuel. Pollsters asked questions such as: “Are you using fewer lights?” or “Do you drive at 55 miles per hour?” At the end of the interviews, pollsters asked, “Have you ever installed a thermidor in your automobile?” Five percent answered yes, FEA spokespersons said.

SONIN CANOUNA. —r — Bike path proposal study is underway The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) is currently researching i legislative proposal for the construction of bicycle paths from state highway taxes. A similar proposal has been effective in Oregon since 1971, when it was first passed as House Bill 1700. Since then, similar proposals have been introduced in 30 states. NYPIRG Director, Donald Ross, said the research in New York was just in its beginning stages and would take about a semester before a proposal could be written. Through this research, NYPIRG wants to modify Oregon’s example to fit New York conditions and to avoid the problems Oregon encountered. Gerry Schultz, staff attorney of Buffalo NYPRIG, feels these bike paths would benefit everyone by saving energy, lessening air pollution and encouraging people to exercise safely. According to House Bill 1700, one percent of all gasoline taxes in Oregon are set aside for the building of bicycle and pedestrian paths. With the state and federal tax at $.11 per dollar, approximately $2 million is available annually for these paths. Supporters of this new legislation at first encountered many difficulties. The legislatures in Oregon had not expected the bill to pass and, therefore, were not prepared to start work on the paths. Oregon first began researching the construction and location of paths once the bill had become law. Complex system Finding no suitable state for a model, Oregon conducted surveys to find out why people went cycling, and set up a Bicycle Advisory Committee to hold public hearings to set locations. Instead of constructing a few long distance paths, several short range paths were built in different areas of the state. The first 44 miles were built as part of 35 different projects because of a complex system of allocating funds between the state, city and county governments. In addition, many of these paths were poorly constructed, and the asphalt cracked with the first rains. Despite the initial difficulties encountered, by 1973 one hundred miles of bikeways had been completed. Oregon is now investigating some long range proposals for paths which would pass through scenic countryside, towns, orchards, caves and fields.

I of a UB publication was amazed and grateful that it finally is being recognized.) The Spectrum, and you, seem to see that despite the gray coulds that share the town with us, there is a silver lining. More emphasis on this and maybe the grumbling (constant) about Buffalo on campus will take a lower key. While not Boulder, Colorado (my personal favorite city I’ve never been to) or any of the multitude of seemingly better places to live, Buffalo isn’t bad. It is an easy city to develop a love-hate relationship with, but soon (sooner or later maybe) you realize it’s bad weather you don’t like, not Buffalo. - - The Student Association (SA) has had a difficult time pulling itself together this year. First, six members of the Executive Committee threatened to resign at the end of last semester unless certain differences they had with President Michele Smith could be resolved. Fortunately, the two sides reconciled with enough time left to start plotting out strategies for the fall. ’ The big task that lay ahead of them was to put that new, complicated piece of paper they call a Constitution into some kind of working order. For one thing, the old Student Assembly, which was previously opened to anyone diligent enought to solicit 40 student signatures on a petition, was replaced by a network of smaller "task forces" (which nobody appears to understand), topped by a larger governing body called the Student Senate. It was to choose 12 representatives to the Student Senate that an election was held two weeks ago by SA. But the election, which had an expectedly poor turnout, was plagued by the typical squalling over who posted what information on their campaign signs, who should be disqualified, and whether the election should be invalidated. It's not bad enough the students have to witness this sort of child's play.every winter during the elections for SA officers, but to start off the year with an election that very few people really understand or care about and then to come up against these kinds of problems is a good way to- discourage participation in student government. It was just so much simpler to use the old 40-signature method at least it was a less oppressive means of attracting students to participate, in whatever capacity, in SA. unnecessary — So now, while SA officials are busy trying to salvage this election, precious time that could be devoted to issues like Women's Studies College, Affirmative Action, University planning, etc. is being wasted. After seven months, it still remains to be seen just how this SA administration can tie all the loose ends together and somehow come out with a strong, coherent government in time for the next election in March. - To the Editor. 1 would like to put into print my dissatisfaction with the, way the intercampus buses are being run. First, I have no complaint with the drivers. My argument lies with the people that make the routes the bus drivers are forced to follow. One thing 1 am very discontent with is the multitude of buses that terminate their journey at the Governors Residence Halls. What about the masses that reside in Ellicott, are they being treated fairly? All Ellicott-bound buses are forced to ride through that nauseating torture track that passes O’Brian and Governors instead of entering the campus through the “back door” and coming up right behind Ellicott. If these buses could come via the prementioned route, they could cut ten minutes from the trip and save a couple of stomachs in the the reduced fuel process, not to mention consumption that will resplt from the shorter trips. You would certainly appreciate my feelings if you had to wait for an Ellicott-bound bus in the pouring rain while three half-empty Governors buses went by. One time, a fairly large group of students started to seriously contemplate hijacking a Governors bus to Ellitott. It ' is quite lobvious that aside from students, these ridiculous inconveniencing the schedules also pose a possible threat to the drivers The Spectrum Monday, Editor-in-Chief - 29 September 1975 Amy Dunkin Managing Editor Richard Korman Gerry McKeen Advertising Manager Mike Niman someone I liked To the hdilor. Is it really necessary to give such exposure in our student newspaper to an item such as Miss Nude facilitate this process. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not opposed to nudity and sex at the right time and in the right place.

I generally regard my visual and/or physical contact with another person, sexually, as a fairly private affair, not for public consumption. I’m not necessarily opposed to sexual relationships between I’ve friends, or between almost complete strangers rarely turned down the opportunity to experience such relationships with a number of girls. But 1 would generally prefer this type of activity with - Vol. 26, No. 18 who are forced to carry them out. Wouldn’t it be a lot simple to just let the Governors buses go right through EUicott and out the back exit? Such a simple solution could avoid so many hassles. It would be much more efficient than having separate buses going to EUicott and Governors and it would be a lot fairer than just having separate buses going to Governors. A poor transportation system will defiantly encourage people to utilize alternate means of traveling between campuses, the most popular of which is the automobUe. Could you imagine what would happen to the already overburdened Main St. parking facilities if all of the cars belonging to EUicott residents suddenly showed up there one day? Also, could you imagine how much better the Main St. parking situation would be if the intercampus bus service was improved to the point where all Amherst residents would be encouraged not to use their cars and ride the buses. HopefuUy, the administration will take note of the ineffective transportation it now has and improve it. If it doesn’t, maybe one rainy day (which is every day in Buffalo) a large group of non-apathetic EUicott residents wiU board one of the notorious Governors-bound buses and just stay on, chanting, “Hell, no, we won’t go.” when the bus stops at Governors.

The name should have been Jill Siegel. The Spectrum regrets the error. Bill Fahy Mutiny on the Blue Bird Universe? This society attempts, at every turn, to exploit Correction Buffalo isn’t bad; it’s pretty decent, if you allow yourself to get into it a little. I hope The Spectrum, and you, devote more time and space to Buffalo, the people, police, politics (though I might care about its sports teams, it’s such a trivial issue to get heated up over) and its sports teams. If The Spectrum takes more time trying to understand the community, which I think you are doing instead of criticizing it, it might restore the relations between the community and the students. After all, we are the University. And if the students take a more positive approach, the community might just follow suit. It can’t hurt. To close, I congratulate you on taking the first of what can be many very constructive steps. You have the power, and it’s nice to see it being used for the community instead of molding student minds against it. This massive peeping-tom mentality that has permeated American culture, and perpetuated by the mass media, is degenerate! Now I’m not denying those people who don’t get enough visual or physical sexual contact the right to read, view or experience these activities. There are thousands of books, magazines and films that are produced for that, and some people will easily fulfill these desires. L must add, too, that McNicce’s photo does nothing to humanize the apparently attractive young lady. Rather his strange angle makes her breasts look meaning fantastic, bizarre, ludicrously grotesque - eccentric. ' Finally, while Miss Natividad claims to have “a brains,” besides her body, it seems questionable. Anyone who would fawn over that ignorant, sleezy, reactionary Ronald Reagan, can’t have too much upstairs. little Tom Blackstone Editor's Note: Our purpose in printing the article on Miss Nude Universe was to see where someone with such a unique title fits into the Women's Liberation movement today.

The comparison of current Chilean repression to Nazi-occuped Europe is strong stuff. The number of political prisoners in Chile is usually placed at a few thousand. Does this compare with Auschwitz and the rest? It is disturbing that a committee purportedly devoted to democracy would sympathize with the totalitarian Khmer Rouge. The N.Y. Times has quoted eyewitness Cambodian refugees to the effect that the Khmer Rouge have beaten former government soldiers to death with shovels and executed their wives; forced an entire population, including hospital patients, into the country for forced labor with inadequate medical and food supplies; and shot fleeing citizens dead at the borders of the country.

The Republican National Committee sent me a fund-raising letter recently, which consisted of a questionnaire on which one could check yes or no answers to a variety of wonderfully complex questions. 1 answered it and sent it back since I figured the post office could use the money, but 1 noted on the bottom that Ford was going to start having to worry about people more than Ronald Reagan for me to feel comfortable in even thinking about giving money, and that when it comes to state politics it was impossible for me to support an incompetent like Sen. Buckley. They will no doubt file it as a kook letter, but it did make my day. And, in closing, a word of comfort about that recent poll that showed Buckley beating a number of Democratic challengers. Besides the dubious quality of the poll itself, it leaves out the fact that Buckley will have to try to talk during any campaign. His brother can’t do all of it from him.

The TAA was outraged, called a meeting of graduate assistants, and threatened to go on strike if the bill was passed. The bill was withdrawn, but teaching assistants began discussing the possibility of forming a labor union to protect themselves against future encroachments. After considerable organizing, an election was held on campus where a significant majority of employed graduate students voted to have the TAA represent them. Now an official labor union, the TAA began negotiations with the University for, a contract in May of 1969.

Finally, after five weeks, the University met the union's demands, except for educational reforms, and the teaching assistants went back tq work. In February 1974. the TAA affiliated with the American Federation of Teachers, AFL-CIO, as (hey saw the necessity for wide labor support from teachers as well as other organized workers. At various times, the TAA has represented between 1,200- 2.000 teaching assistants. The Graduate Employees Organization, at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, trace its roots back to several unsuccessful attempts on the part of employed graduate students to protect their rights. The University administration contested Jhe election, claiming that teaching fellows were students, not employees, and thus not eligible to organize as a labor organization, and that if they were considered eligible, research assistants and staff assistants should be included. MERC upheld this second contention, and refused to hold a union representation election for the teaching fellows. By 1073, teaching fellows were notified the University that out-of-slate by residents would lose the lower in-state tuition rales they had paid previously, costing the non-Michigan'residents more than $ 1,700 annually, explained the union. |n addition, teaching fellows would not receive a pay increase, though the rest of the University employees were scheduled to receive a 5.5 percent wage increase. Finally, tuition rates were to be increased for all by "an average of 24 percent" as of September 1073. University opposition Organization is needed As school began, departmental meetings of graduate students were held, where the proposed changes were condemned, and departmental representatives were elected to a campus-wide Organization of Teaching Fellows, The University then reversed'its ruling, and granted the pay raise. \ Teaching fellows first attempted -to organize a labor union in 1971. Thirty percent of the University's teaching fellows singed petitions that were presented to the Michigan Employment Rjela|jons Commission (MERC), which are enough to require a union election. On the eve of a scheduled mass meeting demand the dropping of tuition increases, the University announced that a partial 'tuition rebate would be granted to teaching fellows. Yet, the University still failed to recognize the right of teaching fellows to form a union. As research assistants and staff assistants joined the organization, the name was changed to the Graduate Employees Organization. Finally, the union called a meeting to vote on staging a strike for recognition, and the University announced that it would allow the state to hold a union recognition election. Between April 1x3, 1974, the employed graduate students voted, by a two to one margin, to name the GEO their legal bargaining agent. After months of fruitless bargaining, the GEO also went out on strike. Undergraduates boycotted classes in support, and the Teamsters respected their picket lines, cutting off supplies and services to the University.

Tres Alamos is the camp where Laura Allende spent five months and it is Corvalan’s third prison camp in nearly two years of imprisonment under the military junta. Suffering from asthma, stomach ulcers and hemmorages, Corvalan was finally given an operation last August. However, one week after the operation. General Augosto Pinochet had him sent to Tres Alamos to “convalesce.” Corvalan has spent most of his time in solitary confinement on Dawson island, the coldest region of Chile, and at the concentration camp of Ritoque. His Chilean lawyer, Fernando Ostornol, has also been detained by the junta at Tres Alamos, and his American lawyer Stanley Faulkner,*has been denied permission to see his client. —continued from page 7— . . . So while other contestants at the Old Settlers Day Festival in Russel Springs, Kansas threw chips like frisbees or discuses, Watkins reared back and tossed his heavy, fresh chip like a baseball.

According to the French newspaper, Combat Chilean General Bachelet and the former minister of the interior, Jose Toha were murdered by the junta, and then declared to have died of “heart attacks.” What has prevented Luis Corvalan’s life from being taken by the junta has been the tremendous support he has received from progressive people around the world. Not only have workers, democrats, and communists demanded Corvalan's freedom, but also the the most pretigious international organizations, including twenty-eighth and twenty-ninth Assemblies of the U.N., the Huamn the World Commission of the U.N., UNLSCO, Rights Interparliamentary Union, and the International Organization ot , Labor.

Women’s hockey team loses 8-0 to Brockport by Joy Clark Staff Writer Spectrum “We were just outplayed,” commented coach Debbie Stotz after the Buffalo women’s field hockey team’s 8-0 loss to a strong Brockport squad Tuesday at Rotary Field. The loss coupled with a 1-0.triumph over Houghton last week gives Buffalo a 1-1 record this year. Brockport dominated the action in the first half, keeping the play down near the Buffalo goal. The Buffalo attack was disorganized, and seldom managed to get past the center line. “We didn’t work together well at all,” stated linewoman Clyde O’Malley. i In the second half, after gaining a substantial lead, Brockport sent out its second team to compete against the tired Buffalo players. With the fresh team, Brockport continued to dominate the game until the last three minutes, when Buffalo rallied to make an attack on the Brockport goal. Time, however, ran out before they could score. Sports Quiz t Blowing the whistle Many of the players thought the poor officiating affected the game, pointing out that at least two of the goals were offside. O’Malley complained that the officials blew their whistles too often. “Our momentum was broken every time they blew their whistles,” she declared. “They ruined the game with too many whistles.” Stotz cited late scheduling and too few qualified officials as the reasons for the poor officiating. “I got the schedule late,” she said, “and by that time, all the rated (qualified) officials had their schedules lined up." Rookie coach This is Stotz’s first season as field hockey coach. Carolyn Thomas did double duty as field hockey and basketball coach last year, but found it too difficult to handle both. Stotz, who graduated from Brockport, talked about the differences between Buffalo and Brockport, a so-called “jock school.” “At Brockport, the players were expected to attend every practice and every game. If they didn’t, then they didn’t get to play,” she commented, “Here, the coaches have to be more flexible because there are so many commuters. On this team, if the effort is 100%, then they’ll get to play.” Although she’s only been coaching for about two weeks, the players have much to say about Stotz. They say she has been working on the fundamentals during practics, and that she has a good attitude toward her job. “She wants to win, and she gets excited,” stated Pat Dolan. And Celeste Tripi commented: “She’s done a remarkable job, considering that she’s only been working with us for about a week.” ENERGETIC and INNOVATIVE BUSINESS MANAGER NEEDED With background in accounting and management Last week’s questions were a little tough, so give yourself a gold star if you answered all three questions correctly.

With about four minutes left, it looked like the Bulls would finally get a break as the Syracuse goalie slipped and Captain Jerry Galkiewicz had a wide open net in the face. staring him Unbelievably enough, though, he hit it wrong, and the ball, which looked as if it could have rolled in by itself, eluded the net.

Falkiewicz redeemed himself less than one minute later when he came right back to rip one through the net from the right side to tie the game 2-2. As the final seconds ticked away and the Bulls looked as if they would have to settle for a tie, Tompkins scored his second goal of the game to win it 3-2 for the Orange. It was a hard loss for the Bulls’ players, coaches and fans to swallow, as Buffalo hasn’t beaten The Orarfge since 1971, and really wanted this one. Coach Esposito was unavailable for comment, but Leninger, who played an excellent game at forward, seemed to echo the sentiments of other Bulls: “We shouldn’ve beat them. We outplayed them.” �Uw bull p«n by DavidJ.

Rotary Field remained the Bulls’ practice field, except on rainy days, when they moved indoors to the dirt floor where the swimming pool in Clark Hall is located now. Football returned to campus in 1955, because newly appointed President Clifford Furnas wanted to bring back the “college football atmosphere.” Furnas was always a staunch supporter of athletics, once running for the United States in the Olympics. The Bulls produced some excellent football teams following their return to Rotary Field. In 1958 they finished 8-1, to win the Lambert Cup, given to the best small college football team in the East.

Rotary to intercollegiate sports The Gelds’ track has seen occasional use, but the field itself has not been used by a Buffalo squad since football was discontinued in 1970. Rotary Field has been a part of the Buffalo campus since 1930, when it was donated to the school by the Rdtary Club of Buffalo, the little white building adjacent to it, originally a cow barn, served as the school s first gym until Clark Hall was built in 1938. The barn, which is used today as a maintenance and storage building, was originally built on the site that is now the Norton Fountain. But when Foster Hall was built in 1920, the barn was moved to its present location. Tuesday was the first Brrrr “There were two furnaces, but nothing to push the heat down to the other end of the gym," recalled Jim Peelle, who has been a member of the Athletic Department here since 1934. “There was no way to heal the water for the showers." Eventually, an oil heater was purchased for the old gym and the athletes were at least able to dry their equipment. in But the old barn was not much of a gym were no look There spacious. Clark Hall fact, it made bleachers of any kind around the basketball court, mainly because there were only about two or three feet around the edges of the court.

Unfortunately nothing of the old gymnasium Cries from the past When football was discontinued in 1970, Rotary Field fell into disuse, except for an occasional high school game. This year, the field was resodded and widened, and the soccer and women’s field hockey teams moved back in last week. And once again, the rhythmic chant of "'Let s Go Buffalo was heard - within the stadium. Clark Flail too, has a long and unusual history. The site was originally a pond, which the maintenance department used as a garbage dump. At one time, deer and pheasant were known to live in the undeveloped area around the pond, but as the garbage built up, the land became overrun by mice. Albert Schadle of the Biology Department, turned the dirty pond into a laboratory of sorts. Fie caught the rats, stenciled red numbers on their bellies, and set them free, for an experiment designed to see if rats migrate. The pond was drained and Clark Hall was built, using rock from a quarry behind Bennett High School Each rock was hand cut, in keeping with the architecture of the campus at that time, but that proved to be very costly. “If they had used bricks, they could have made it (Clark Hall) twice as big,” Peelle lamented. remains, the home of football game was Buffalo’s football teams.

Today, even so-called "non-technical” courses (psych, soc, bus ad, to name 3) require a variety of technical calculations—complicated calculations that become a whole lot easier when you have a powerful pocket calculator. Not surprisingly, there are quite a few such calculators around, but ours stand apart, and ahead. We started it all when we introduced the world’s first scientific pocket calculator back in 1972, and we’ve shown the way ever since. The calculators you see here are our newest, the first of our second generation. Both offeryou technology you probably won’t find in competitive calculators for some time to come, if ever. Our HP-21 performs all arithmetic, log and trig calculations, including rectangular/polar conversions and common antilog evaluations. It’s display is fully formatted, so you can choose between fixed decimal and. scientific notation. Our HP-25 does all that—and much, much more. It’s programmable, which means it can solve automatically the countless repetitive problems every science and engineering student faces. With an HP-25, you enter the keystrokes necessary to solve the problem only once. Thereafter, you just enter the variables and press the Run/Stop key for an almost instant answer accurate to 10 digits. Before you invest in a lesser machine, by all means do two things: ask your instructors about the calculations their courses require; and see for yourself how effortlessly our calculators handle them. Both the HP-21 and HP-25 are almost certainly on display at your bookstore. If not, call us, toll-free, at 800-538-7922 (in Calif. 800-662-9862) for the name of an HP dealer near you.

He was called into Attica on September 13. On that day, O’Day worked as a medic both in and around the prison hospital. After recounting the incident mentioned previously, he tearfully testified to another incident he thought was “criminal in nature,” committed by state officials against an inmate. He related how he had been carrying a naked black inmate on a stretcher back to the inmate’s cell, when he was told by a “small man in a green plaid army jacket” to put the stretcher down. The inmate had bandages on both hands and bullet wounds in the legs and buttocks. The small man dumped the inmate off the stretcher, pulled out a Phillips sctewctivet, and “stabbed the inmate five jo seven times right up the rectal area. The guards just looked the other way.” Brutality B. Kevin Burke was also a medic in the National Guard sent into Attica on September 13, 1971. He testified as to how nightsticks were used as clubs by the officers. “One officer held the inmate’s arms while the other correction officer hit the inmate about the head, shoulders, back, and so forth. A full arm snap of the wrist.” He also related how a doctor at the prison on September 13 would kick the wounded inmates in the shoulders, rib area, and stomach, and exclaim to the inmates, “You say you’re hurt, we’ll see how hurt you are. Take him back to his cell.” If an inmate protested, he was beaten, Burke contended. Burke stated that he witnessed continual beatings in the hospital area, hospital corridor area, and the administration building. Judge Ann T. Mikoll denied motions Monday to dismiss the case on the grounds that selective prosecution was practiced because only inmates have been indicted for crimes committed during the four-day rebellion in September, 1971. State crimes The defense motions had also charged coercion of testimony and cited parts of the Meyer Hospital medical report of injuries to inmates. Defense Attorneys Elizabeth Gaynes and Vincent Doyle, Jr. contended that crimes were committed against inmates by state officials during the aftermath of the uprising. They also claimed that the prosecution was both aware of these crimes and did nothing about them. Gaynes argued that of the 43 deaths which occurred at Attica, 39 are being ignored. Omowale, acting pro se [on his own behalf) on the common-law murder charge, claims he can identify the guard that shot him and then left him for dead. However, he has been unable to do so because prosecuting attorneys Francis Cryan and Charles Bradley have yet to produce the guard’s photograph. During the first two days of the hearing, which began Monday, Jomo stated that he had been shot once in the left side during the assault on the prison and after he was brought inside the D Block door by a fellow inmate, he was shot many times by a correction officer he knew while at Auburn Prison. Jomo wound up his testimony by revealing to the court the three-inch scar on his side, and the five bullet scars in his back that extend from his neck to his waistline. Friday, 26 September 1975 Overlooked days Mistake adds extra strain to trimmed University budget since “the rate of savings has been greater in the past few months than originally expected.” by Amy Dunkin Editor-in-Chief An inaccurate estimate of payroll requirements for the current fiscal year has cost the University an additional $220,000 in budgetary savings for 1975-76. Added to the $2,800,00 in savings previously calculated, this figure brings to over $3 million the total amount of money the University must save for the fiscal year ending April 1, 1976. A “savings” is an amount of money that simply may not be spent out of an approved budget, as opposed to a “cut,” where money is actually deleted from the budget, explained Charles Fogel, Assistant Executive Vice President. He said that while every state agency has a natural amount of savings in its budget to be used in areas where it expects “to be short,” this year the University was asked to save so much that “it can ill-afford the extra expense.” According to Edward Doty, Vice President for Finance and Management, the University’s budget and accounting offices did not adequately consider the fact that 1976 is a leap year with an extra day for which to pay. Additionally, he said a second day was overlooked, fording the University to come up with the money needed to meet payroll demands for two extra days. ' More limitations Doty explained that the savings would be absorbed primarily by the Academic Affairs, Health Sciences, and Maintenance divisions of the University. He noted, however, that Academic Affairs, which is the largest division and which will absorb the greatest proportion of the $220,000 savings, has had the “greatest difficulty in meeting budget limitations” this year.. Doty added taht the Maintenance division, which he heads, will have to spend $55,000 less than anticipated. The solution, he said, will be to “whack it out of the physical plan” by spending that much less on maintenance and physical upkeep of the UmVersity. He did not feel the cutback would seriously affecfhis division, though, since only less than half of the 1975—76 budget has already been spent. Carter Pannill, Vice President for Health Sciences, said the approximately $50,000 in savings required of his division is “not of grave concern” Positions remain vacant He said the problem will be approached in a “program by program fashion,” and it probably means Health Sciences will have to further postpone filling certain positions that have remained vacant up to this time. The Academic Affairs division will, distribute its $99,000 share of the savings among the various faculties anc Colleges, according to Robert Fisk, Acting Vice President for Academic Affairs. He termed it “premature” to specify any additional savings in the current budget until the Provosts and Deans consult with their own budget offices to determine if the “tentative targets” set at a Provostial Council meeting Tuesday, “are things they can meet and live with.” He did concede that Academic Affairs is considering such matters as postponing appointments, and cutting travel, telephone, and communications expenditures. Fisk stressed, however, that “every effort will be made to avoid cuts in the Colleges.” Fisk expects to report to Executive Vice President Albert Somit next Tuesday with the final details. Vulnerability Although Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg said he was promised nothing would happen to the Colleges “unless he has the opportunity to defend them,” he was concerned that the Colleges were particularly “vulnerable” since many of their employees are either temporary or part time. The Colleges budget (totalling $350,000) is at “rock bottom,” Spitzberg said, and “any cut would require significant retrenchment.” Calculating that the cost per credit hour in the Colleges is $10 per student, he stated that “the average cost of over $50 per credit hour for other academic courses in the University “tells you what sort of bargain you get in the Colleges.” “It is very difficult to justify further savings in the Colleges,” Spitzberg said. “1 am hopeful that this is a University of reasonable people who will be persuaded by these arguments,” he concluded. Fogel complimented the various divisions on what has been done thus far to meet the immediate money situation. “I think we’re going to make it,” he observed. �Academic committee draws severe criticism from SA “SA does not want to rush headlong into matters as serious as these, commented Director for Academic A(fairs David Shapiro, who feels there is too little time to consider all pertinent data. Ketter expects to see preliminary results of the committee’s research in November, including a tentative list of programs to be phased out, changed, or left as they are. He indicated that a broader, more comprehensive set of recommendations will be followed soon afterward with a complete draft of an initial academic plan. By early March, a full report to the University community will be distributed and reactions will be solicited during March and April. A final set of recommendations will be submitted to Ketter at tlje end of the by Steve Milligram Spectrum Staff Writer A committee has been selected by President Robert Ketter to formulate an academic plan for the University by the end of the 1976 spring semester. The Committee is being co-chaired by Graduate School Dean McAllister Hull and History Department Chairman Clifton Yearly. The committee intends to take into consideration the views of both the University and the State University Central Administration in preparing its final recommendations. The Committee structure has already become the object of criticism. Student Association (SA) President Michele Smith said “the committee cannot possibly do an efficient, comprehensive job within the time limits set or by the means currently employed to gather data.” Although SA has not decided as yet which students to appoint to the Committee, no students have been “invited by the administration to present their views on the structure or substance of academic planning,” Smith said. spring semester. Smitlf referred to the academic planning committee at the State University at Binhamton, which has been operating for three semesters. AT Binghamton, one semester was devoted to developing criteria and survey instruments, the second to gathering data, and the third to evaluating ideas. Doomed She concluded that if this job is to be accomplished in one and one half semesters here, “it is clear that we are doomed to an inadequate job." Smith outlined some alternatives: to divide the committee into several committees, expand the committee’s time allowance, increase its membership, or all three. Student representatives to the committee have not yet been selected according to Smith *and Shapiro, because "we are taking some time in making this crucial choice.” They have requested additional student representation and are Evidence In a letter to Ketter, Smith charged that the committee will have to base its decisions solely on “evidence” compiled and presented by the administration. “The full review needed for a complete academic plan will not be done,” she declared. Smith also charged that the amount of time allotted to the Committee’s task, its workload, and its size are insufficient for it to fulfill its purpose. Hull, however, believes the Committee has sufficient enough time to complete its work responsibly, and that “any and all pertinent data” will be reviewed. “This will not be a committee that meets occasionally for coffee and cake,” he remarked awaiting a reply. The Committee has been charged by Ketter as follows formally “To develop and recommend an academic plan for the University at Buffalo consistent, with institutional goals and cognizant of possible resource availability; a plan responsible to the needs of both the University and its constituencies; and a plan sufficiently detailed to convey the future configuration of the University and to guide the University's budget development and resource allocation.

Ketter sets up three priority levels in deciding where resources should be directed. The highest priority goes to graduate and professional studies or “post-baccalaurette professional education.” Upper-division undergraduate education is the next priority, especially if the undergraduate , The Spectrum Friday, 26 September 1975 . . Lower-division undergraduate studies third and lowest priority, in Ketter’s view. on is the Specialization stressed its nature, exists “The University, by ultimately for specialization (although, through its odentist, or health science professional, f theory practice, not necessarily isolated or narrow specialization),” Ketter writes. This is a point that is bound to be debated since there are those who feel the University has traditionally had a “mad and beautiful conviction” that it can “teach everybody everything.” It may and also be pointed out that the word “University” comes from universe, meaning everything, toying with the idea of “regionalization,” Under this system, the and professional programs, Ketter seems to be ignoring the fact that the society really need the numbers of specialists he feels universities should provide. Not in society can be a doctor, lawyer, engineer, pharmacist, professor, teacher, dentist, or health science professional. does not apparently everybody Employment a measure Saving trouble Page two is continued here graduate or professional level. President Robert (setter's introduction to the Academic Plan for the University, published recently in The Reporter, follows in this University’s tradition of stacking the deck before making a vitally important deal. Basically, Ketter made graduate and professional studies the highest priorities in allocation of campus resources (including money), and downgraded the first two years of undergraduate studies in budgeting priorities. In addition, Ketter attacked unnamed parts of the University for their support of “undefined ‘relevance’,” called for faculty supremacy in determining courses of study, and hinted at the possibility of "general education” requirements’ here. The University-wide President’s Committee on Academic Planning is now being empaneled. To the chagrin of Michele Smith and other Student Association (SA) officials, there has apparently been little movement toward giving the committee the student members it is supposed to include. � is one that program h'Jitor In his report, Ketter emphasizes employability of graduates as a means for setting priorities for funding departments.

Students who are not registered to vote, or who will need absentee ballots, must act quickly to be able to exercise their franchise in the November elections, and in the presidential primaries next year. The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) is running a voter registration drive on several fronts of this campus, according to coordinator Jill Siegel. Voters who need absentee ballots must send in requests by Tuesday, September 30, for absentee ballot applications, before they can obtain the applications. The absentee ballot applications must then be completed and returned to the voter’s respective county clerks, postmarked no later than midnight, October 6. NYP1RG has arranged to set up tables in all the dormitories on Thursday and Friday night of this week, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. in the cafeterias, and from 10 p.m. to I am. in the vending areas, to promote voter registration. These tables will have the required request NVP1RG will stamp and mail the forms, and requests itself Two tables In addition, NYP1RG and the Student Association (SA) will set up two tables next week. These booths will be staffed Monday to Friday, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. They will also be open on Monday, October 6, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Local residents can register at their polling places on October 3, 4, and 6. The voting booths will be open from noon to 7 p.m. on October 3 and 6, and from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on October 4. Any Buffalb area voter who is not sure of the location of his of her voting booth can find out by calling the Erie County Board of Elections. Students who turn 18 years of age after November 4, but before the date of the primaries, may still vote in the primaries, provided they register 30 days before the primary election Permanent registration Anyone who has previously registered in New York State is covered by the state’s permanent registration system, unless his or her legal address has changed, or if they have failed to vote in the last two years. One problem that students might run into concerns their legal residence. This can be successfully avoided by answering the “Occupation” question with “Unemployed.” Volunteers are still needed to assist with next week’s projects in Norton and Diefendorf Halls.

The New York Times reports that Admiral Pinheiro Azevedo has replaced Premier Vasco Goncalves, the composition of the Revolutionary Council has changed, and a new cabinet has been selected. It has interpreted the significance of these developments as being a step toward slowing up the Portugese revolution and as the “worst” defeat the Portugese Communist Party (PCP) has suffered since the Armed Forces Movement took power in April, 1974. The American media on the whole has consistently reported that the majority of the Portugese people are conservative and that a small minority, dominated by the PCP, has been trying to install a socialist “dictatorship.” So frequently has this been the interpretation of the Portugese revolution by the American media, that Tom Foley, a reporter for the Daily World, was able to predict before the new cabinet was even selected, that the bourgeois press interpret would the new government as a defeat for communist forces. U.S. media distorts The nature of Council, neither society.” Soares of the Socialist He also noted, according to Party, nor the Popular Le Monde, that growing “divorce Democratic Party has convinced between the people and the the military that they should AFM,” was endangering the bow out of the government. achievements df the revolution. In fact, according to Le The U.S. media only reported Monde, Soares’ statement that that not all who participated in the conservative General Spinola, assaults on PCP offices were reactionaries. His remarks who admitted participation in the attempted coup last March, concerning the basic direction of would be able to return to power Portugal were largely omitted. if he was willing to “play the game of democracy,” was Armed Forces guide The final point concerns the regarded with coldness by the selection of the new cabinet Revolutionary Council. According to The New members. According to Le Monde', York Times, the inclusion of should Spinola set foot in four socialists and two Popular be Portugal, he will arrested for Democrats as opposed to one his role in the attempted coup. Communist in the new cabinet is This may explain in part why a democratic development in so Soares was not given a post in far as it represents the the new cabinet. anti-communist sentiment of the people and as it represents the Unity needed will of the people as expressed in Also, the U.S. media has the elections to the constituent created the impression that the assembly of last year. officers in the Revolutionary This is partially true. The Council can resolve their inclusion of the Popular differences only through the use Democrats, who openly called of force. Although differences for the dissolution of the Revolutionary political in accord with news reports from European papers such as Le Monde and L’Humanite. According to the Daily World, misinformation in the U.S. press regarding Portugal is designed to foster hopes among reactionaries that the major reforms achieved by the Armed Forces Movement in unity with the people, will soon be reversed. Based upon reports in French papers, it is possible to clear up some of the surrounding changes in Portugal. confusion recent To consider the New Premier, Admiral Azevedo, as , being different from Vasco Goncalvcs is a mistake. Admiral Azevedo is a member of the naval forces, which according to the Daily World, has been the radically most active military supporter of Goncalves’ policies. Le Monde reported that upon office, GoncalVes said Azevedo has always “taken the correct positions” with respect to political decisions. leaving Build socialism Upon Azevedo’s appointment, both PCP and Intersindical, the National Trade Union Federation, gave their full support to him. In his public statements, according to l.e Monde, Azevedo declared that the goals of the new government would be the building of national unity and socialism, and the restoration of peace in the North, where PCP offices and trade union organizations have been assaulted by mobs. Also, the continuing presence of Costa Gomez as President has been a stabilizing factor throughout the governmental crises. According o L’Humanite, a plot in late August to overthrow the government was to have had both a military and a political stage to it. Militarily, forces that supported the dissident officers led by Melos Antunes, were to have seized all means of communication. Politically, Costa Gomez was to have announced in a declaration to the nation, that Premier Goncalves was dismissed. However, according to L’Humanite this plot failed due , to both the support wide Goncalves had in the military, and Costa Gomes’ refusal to dismiss Goncalves under those circumstances. And since that time, even the New York Times has noted, Costa Gomez has out carried the Goncalves government’s policy of the country’s nationalizing biggest financial and industrial combine, the Companhia Uniao Fabril, and that Costa Gomez has not wavered in his desire to achieve socialism in Portugal. The second point is that the locus of political power is still in the Armed Forces Movement (AFM). (Although divisions in the AI M have appeared, and this has been reflected in the changes in the of the membership have been apparent aregarding the development of Portugal’s foreign trade and the participation of political parties in the government, the U.S. media has distorted th ese differences. For example, after the appointment of Premier Pinheiro Azavedo, one of the leading “moderate” General officers. Charais gave an interview, which was reported in Le Monde. His main comments were that “The solution arrived at and the mean who are now in the Revolutionary Council today are the guarantee that we are looking to attain the objectives of the Armed Forces Movement; national independence and the construction of a socialist military considered government, can be a type of compromise military to dissident by the political forces. However, it is clear even in The New York Times that President Costa Gomez left little doubt as to why Popular Democrats and socialists were given cabinet posts. They were included to insure that all of the major political forces in Portugal participate in the construction of a socialist society in Portugal. This fundamental goal is in no way opposed to the goals of the PCP or to communists anywhere in the world. To interpret the new Portugese government as a backlash against communism only serves to misinform the public.

In fact, Time magazine recently rated Buffalo as the 15th most livable city in the United States. Buffalo's "success" is hardly as attributable to Niagara Falls or Lake Erie as much as to the many concerned citizens who have worked hard and long each year to bring the city together. It has been a conscious effort, 'tis true, and a commercial one (this past WQFM continually reminded us that Buffalo is Delaware Park, souvlaki, and Buffalo is STEEL), but an effort that has attracted the attention of more than one previously unenlightened summer person. How many cities do you know stage a multi-media tribute to the working class on the steps of City Hall and in the streets around it? Or how many use their giant sports stadiums for an annual series of rock concerts? Allentown, perhaps more than any particular section, has contributed its share to the revitalization of Buffalo. The Allentown Arts Festival has become an eagerly-awaited event, an outdoor "blockparty" each summer, attracting throngs of visitors to the artistic displays that line Delaware Avenue and the surrounding streets. And now, for the first time, the merchants and store owners have pooled their imaginations together to create Allenfest, a three day celebration of the Allentown community which encompasses music, dance, and art and photography exhibits. The producers of Allenfest are proud of what Allentown has to offer the people of Buffalo and they deserve the support and recognition of the University community. Some time between today and Sunday, make your way down to Allentown and find out why Buffalo really ain't such a bad place to be.

Actually the committee that he refers to proceeded carefully and conscientiously with (1) a College E? In terms of accurate reporting, Mr. Kerr ranks somewhere between Joseph Goebbels and Parson Weems. Lynn Rose More facts about Chile To the Editor In reply to Peter llornik’s letter in the September 22 issue of The Spectrum, inaccuracies, the regime of Salvador Allende was overthrown, not by a popular resistance movement, but by a military coup. However, the Unidad Popular government was undermined, directly and indirectly, by the policies and actions of the U S. government and large corporations. A credit blockade, initiated by the U.S., sabotaged the Chilean economy. Behind the scenes, the C.I.A. financed anti-government strikes and plots to assassinate key government figures. The inflation under Allende never was 800 percent; it was 22 percent in 1971, in 1972, 300 percent in Sepi Jan. 1973, and workers were compensated for inflation by increased salaries, food supplements (free milk to children), and free health care clinics. The vast majority of workers supported Allende. Inflation under the Junta has been 200 Dec. 1973, 370 percent in 1974, percent Sept. and will be worse this year. The World Bank says that real inflation in 1974 was 600 percent. Real wages of workers have been cut 50 percent since the coup. Unemployment under Allende was 3-4 percent. Now it is 20-25 percent. Mr. Hornik’s reference to a “Gallup Poll” among Chileans in which people conducted responded overwhelmingly in favor of the military regime is an insult to anyone acquainted with the situation of the Chileans today. The reports of the — — Arts HIU ' Only four years and two weeks after the bloodbath that occurred at Attica prison, a New York State governor has finally come to his senses. Governor Hugh Carey told an audience in Rochester Wednesday that he would take steps to grant amnesty to inmates indicted for the 1971 uprising if it is proven that possible police crimes were ignored by the prosecution. (Let us not forget that his predecessor, the man who ordered the National Guard to converge on the prison, quit his job, skipped town for Washington, D.C. and hasn't been seen or heard from since.) Ironically, Carey's statement came on the same day that two former National Guardsmen, the first to testify on behalf of an Attica defendant, were describing in vivid detail the acts of brutality committed by law officers in September, 1971. In addition, Judge Ann T.

Criticism of the regime can result in imprisonment, torture, even death for Chileans. Under these circumstances, such a poll has neither validity nor credibility. The repression in Chile finds no comparison in the world today. The situation is similar to that in Europe during the Nazi occupation. The Chilean Resistance is supported by the overwhelming majority of the population, as was the European Underground in its time. Mr. Hornik suggests that the Khmer Rouge are more repressive than the Chilean military. The U.S. dropped hundreds of thousands of bombs on Cambodia for five years, and for several years did so in secrecy. The Khmer Rouge had had to avoid mass starvation in the cities after the Americans left, and are trying to reconstruct a society devastated by the U.S. military. Continual reports of “bloodbaths” in the .U.S. press, citing “Western intelligence sources” (C.I.A.), are unsubstantiated by eyewitness reports from Cambodia. Mr. Hornik is correct in perceiving some relationship between the Chilean and Cambodian situations. In both instances U.S. imperialism is at the root of the present problems faced by these societies. In Cambodia it is reponsible not only for the destruction of the traditional way of life, but also for the U.S. military’s wholesale bombing of people, towns, and fields. In Chile it is clear that without the support of U.S. goverment and capital the military junta would not have come to power and could not now remain in power. are Buffalo Committee for Chilean Democracy �iHiSBii by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor Several years ago I was asked, in all seriousness, who Sherlock Holmes was.

They are embellishments to the myth, not the myth itself. Who, indeed, is Sherlock Holmes? Having seen The Hound of the Baskervilles, the 1939film version of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's most famous Holmes story, I feel certain that I know Sherlock Holmes is Basil Rathbone. Ever since he first donned the mackintosh and deerstalker's cap in Hound, no one who has ever seen Rathbone as Holmes has ever doubted it . — — All the angles In "A Study in Scarlet," Dr. Watson describes Holmes Great mysteries You mean you don't know who Sherlock Holmes is? In height he was rather over six feet, and so excessively lean that he seemed to be considerably taller. His eyes were sharp and piercing. . . and his thin, hawk-like nose gave his whole expression an air of alertness and decision. His chin, too, had the prominence and squareness which mark the man of determination. From that description, anyone could identify Rathbone. He has it the piercing eyes; the tall, lean frame; the sharp features. And, most important of all, he made us believe that his mind was even sharper than that angular, formidable face. From his first moment on screen, Rathbone has us unshakably brilliant and ice-cold, convinced of the presence of that intellect unencumbered by emotional frailty; the supreme triumph of ego over id. It's nearly impossible not to admire Holmes, but there is never any sense of personal warmth in him. His is the mirage of the perfect Victorian father. all - — a Holmes' task here is to phantom hound that has investigate the "curse of the Baskervilles:" supposedly killed one of them and which threatens the heir to the house. (If you're familiar with the plot, bear with me; there are those not as fortunate.) Holmes being busy in London (don't you believe it), off goes his trusty companion Dr. Watson to Baskerville Hall, situated in the middle of the most foreboding landscape of studio wasteland and fake fog you could imagine. Dr. Watson, played by Nigel Bruce, contrasts the Holmes almost more fuddled as if by a London fog. Bruce's Watson is, in fact, far less clear-headed than Doyle's Watson, a totally. Watson is softer, older, does the character some harm. 15 minutes or so in which he operates independently of Holmes clarify that Watson is solid and dependable when it comes to change which But the scratch, if unusually unimaginative. So we have Holmes and Watson. But the legend is neither; it's Holmes and Watson. And one of the best things about the film Hound is that the magic chemistry between Holmes and Watson is preserved in ever-apparent contrasts between them notwithstanding. a team is old hat, but one often wonders what two such characters see in each other. Rathbone and Bruce, and the tact, Contrast in unalike therefore Holmes and Watson, are a perfect match. Quick, Watson, the strudel "Atmospheric" is perhaps the best and most complimentary word for the film as a whole. Hound and its sequel. The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, spawned a series of Holmes films, all with Rathbone and Bruce, which transplanted the sleuth into contemporary time the 1940's. In lieu of Professor Moriarty's syndicate of evil, Sherlock Holmes was pitted against the Nazis. And the series lost the atmosphere — of the first two — not just the chill humors of the Baskerville moors, but the entire aura of Victorian England. Hollywood, however, always tends to react to "British" subjects (no pun intended) with more pretension than necessary. Much of the acting is over-theatrical, the major exceptions beion Lionel Atwill, the Grand Duke of B-picture actors (Hound was a rare "class" appearance; he deserved more of them) and Richard Greene, the appealing leading man who- inexplicably gets top billing over Rathbone.

If it is fear of others' technical or spiritual inadequacy with unfamiliar material, does not a playwright run the same risk? New patterns needed The tenfold increase in the last ten years of the dance audience — pieces in only two years. Major choreographers knew them and their work and were willing to do new pieces for them or give them 13 works they'd already done different pieces, so that no single choreographer would dominate - the company, even when it grows into 5X2 and Friends. Last Friday evening at the Studio Arena Theater, the 5X2 performed its usual five pieces, three duets and one solo by each dancer this time. The company had to cope with a small but the obnoxious element in audience, and the bad floor, narrow thrust, and short diagonals of the Arena stage.

Some of the six pieces had not been performed in 30 years until Becker recreated them in performance. The work had a minstrel feeling to it, but with a simplicity and openness which Becker never handled appropriately, indulging himself or moving into parody. His control of tone was masterful, and it was wonderful to see that the reputation of Becker's performance was warranted.

In thir film, however, the blood spills in Tennessee with no historical basis at all, for only in the realm of fiction can such an American Dream come true. Framed presents the classic case of a powerless man framed for murder. His victim, a sheriff's deputy, is duly revenged, as even the defendant's lawyer refuses to believe 'twas all in self defense. Our hero's paranoia rages as the camera reveals quick nods in the D.A.'s office, knowing glances at the station-house, and inaudible directives given to the prison guards while he awaits admission. So Louis is locked up for four years, neatly allowing for a short expose of prison life. Once again it is the injustices which define the system, prompting Louis to swear double revenge for the four years of his life which he feels were murdered. Violence runs rampant in this movie, and the fact that producers can depend on action films like these to attract audiences over and over again is tragic. Almost as revolting is the good-natured laughter generated in the audience. The film does not employ violence to prove a point; it is the point. metal Louis is fighting coemption and inequality, with the aid of a black deputy who is fighting to reform racists, but the battles are personalized ones, honed down to an even finer level than that of "man against man." Edgar Allan Poe is brought to mind as each fight culminates in the decimation of another sensory organ; it's face-to-face combat. Then, to please everyone in the audience, there are dso a rape and a threatened castration. In keeping with the Sexy ********** theme, the pistols in this picture seem sexier than the stars. Louis insists that man is innately good. Cast as a muscular but tender Jonathan Winters type, his virtue is believable. His co-star (whose performance is rivaled only by that of the unseen bird that does a number on her bleached-blonde permanent) delivers all the pseudo-philosophic, annoying lines. She ineloquently preaches doom, and is proven accurate only once. (The line actually reads, "You two have reduced everything to an animal level!" And, shortly thereafter, the mayor is torn apart by his own Dobermans.) Clean-up campaign But Louis does triumph. With his girl's encouragement, he remains in town after collecting enough evidence to indict all the local officials, a few judges, and the district senator who had hoped to run for governor that fall. The vacuum Louis has created happily suggests that his assistant may very well become the town's first black mayor. to be canned. It is Framed deserves super saturated with Contemporary Issues, which are presumably included for mass appeal. But the issues are just stuffed in whenever they are remotely relevant, often destroying the rhythm of the movie and suspending the plot, which is at best suspenseful, and at worst, demands conclusion. What proves to be violence and greed, blatantly relevant is the pillage-and-plundering. The final condemnation lies in the fact that what ultimately brings a smile to Louis’ face and establishes the happy ending is not his heroic purification of the system, but the recollection of how much bribery, pay-off, kickback, and graft money he has managed to steal from these politicians' offices. In 1975, peoples' dreams still come true. by Randi Schnur Arts Editor Watching a play from the front row of a large theatre can be an unnerving experience for those of us who are hooked on illusion. It s something like visiting Universal Studios in Hollywood, or spending time with someone else who knows, and finding out that what you've seen and believed on movie screens all these years really isn't happening The at all. (Remember that short film on television a few years ago Making of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, I think it was called in which it was proven once and for all that the dizzyingly deep canyon into which Butch and the Kid made their death-defying leaps were actually a well-braced wooden platform about three feet below the - - "cliff?" How was that for a rude awakening?) No, Virginia, despite what we've all been telling you, there is no Santa Claus it's just Daddy with lots of pillows. Seen in close-up, live theatre for large audiences can be either a real education or a grotesque nightmare of exaggeration, depending upon how one is inclined to look at it. The heavy grease make-up, lighting designs, costume effects, and gestures meant to send their collective message out to the second balcony seem garish and overdone a few feet away. Under these conditions, it is only in the very finest productions that artifice does not ultimately detract from art. - Non-movie The American Film Theatre's restaging of Eugene O’Neill's 1939 classic The Iceman Cometh, originally produced for the A.F.T.'s first subscription series two years ago but revived last week at the Evans and Holiday Theatres, has one major flaw: it is not really a movie at all, but rather a play recorded on film. From Roman Polanski's Macbeth to Peter Weiss' Marat/Sade, recent screen adaptations have demonstrated what is possible when well-known dramatic literature is translated into the technological language of the cinema. The eerily breath-talcing landscapes caught in Polanski's wide-angle lens and the maniacally shifting angles of Weiss' camera contributed more to the uniqueness of their visions than did nearly anything else. Scottish Under John Frankenheimer's direction, though. Iceman is static and very, very slow. (True, the film with its two intermissions runs for over four hours, even with the rather pointless exclusion of one minor character, saloonkeeper Harry Hope's brother-in-law Ed; but length will never be a satisfacotry excuse for ponderousness.)

Lee Marvin's Hickey, however, expresses virtually desperately nothing; there is no feeling in his portrayal of guilt-ridden murderer, from whose character much of the play's intensity should emanate.

The question of what to do is easily answered by the wide variety of activities available on campus. particularly those Films, sponsored by the University Union Activities Board (UUAB), are by far one of the most popular forms of entertainment, and the long lines outside the Conference Theatre on any given weekend night attest to this. The UUAB Fine Arts Film Committee strives to present a variety of motion pictures that will satisfy all tastes.

Relations of media to man The Center for Media Studies, and its director, Gerald O'Grady, are beginning "to create a new context for education." Media Studies program was 0'Grady's 1972. Its courses presently established in concentrate on three areas (eventually leading to both graduate and undergraduate degrees): 1) the making of films and video tapes; 2) the history, theory and analysis of media forms; and 3) the psychic and social effects of media. The Center appoints its own faculty from among applicants who have shown expertise in some visual medium. People like James Blue, Hollis Frampton, Brian Henderson, Paul Sharits and Woody Vasulka are already involved in courses on the uses of film and video. Media Studies focuses on analyzing the relation of media to the social and human evolution of man, mass communications in relation to society, the development of media-oriented curricula, and the critical history and understanding of the media. its massive infiltration of electronically-produced images on equipment small enough to be used in the home. Before even entering school, the average child views some 15,000 hours of TV, with another 10,000 hours added on during the school years. We can safely say, therefore, that our culture is being humanly and transmitted in two ways: studies It is interesting to note that the majority of work in the study of media is being done in the United States, with some,studies coming out of the United Kingdom. Reasons for this sudden interest include affluence and the technical revolution, with video. Revolutionary electronically. O'Grady explains that if we are to educate effectively, we must keep consciousness, codes (words and symbols) and social structure in mind. This is the "new context for education" toward which O'Grady is striving. The structure he envisions is built around an awareness of one very basic fact: the mind changes, and with these changes in consciousness comes a direct interaction with the other two aspects of human beings. Next year Media Studies will be a separate unit at this University. As of now, it is listed under the English Department, with the majority of its courses dealing with the experimental aspects of film and Anyone interested in majoring in Media Studies is advised to find out about the Special Majors Program here, until the degree programs are established. —Philip Press ; announced).

The actual villain of Badlands isn't either Martin Sheen or Sissy Spacek, who play the two lovers who drift into murder. Its carefully detailed thesis is that mass commercialization, as it enters the fifties in which the film is set, is dehumanizing us all. Malick's first film, and only one to date, is notable in its control and consistency. Until Nashville, Thieves Like Us was generally figured as Robert Altman's masterpiece, despite its being the least commercially successful of Altman's films. Its tale of two young thirties bank robbers is enacted in a misty, muted tone that only McCabe and Mrs. Miller, of Altman's other films, shares at all.

I think Americans have a special place in their hearts for the trivial, ugly and useless detritus of an industrial society in which if something is not ugly when it is new, it will certainly attain that favored status when it is old and useless. At this very morpent, there is someone "growing" old Cadillacs in an abandoned Texas cottonfield (he buried a fact which I them half-way, fins jutting into the sun) can never avoid conflating in my mind with a picture I once saw of Andy Warhol clutching a hideous ceramic cookie jar (he collects them) and smiling like an idiotic canary. Junk, I think it is safe to say, has brightened quite a few otherwise intelligent lives. There is a stubborn and consistent "crap factor" in the American cultural and artistic diet which is only beginning to be recognized. Take it from me, that's the wave of the future. It's not plastics anymore; it's crap. In presenting the reading public with his latest attempt at the novel form, Willard and His Bowling Trophies: A Perverse Mystery, Richard Brautigan has played on the currency of the "crap factor" in interesting ways; first, he has plundered two remaining categories of popular-writing magic he left untouched after dealing with the western, science fiction and the gothic in Hawkline Monster, his last book. In Willard he develops the possibilities of soft pornography and the murder mystery. As with the Hawkline categories, Brautigan necessarily molds perversion and mystery together here in such a way that neither is completely recognizable or true to itself. The mystery is not terribly mysterious (no locked room puzzles here) and the perversion is not terribly perverse (in Brautigan's phrase, it is "awkward sadism"). Willard is a brief, modest hybrid: simply a "perverse mystery." 11"is redeemed crap. Second, Brautigan has acknowledged the "crap factor" by investing a ridiculous piece of artistic junk with merit beyond simple delight in the ugly and the useless: Willard, the speechless hero of this tiny book, a long-legged — bird pnade out of papier-mache, paint and rags, is not only a first-class piece of junk, but he PS* tWr center of imaginative power in the story. He is literally-constructed out of an artist's happy dream and in turn he enables an otherwise plain and adequate couple to engage in harmless fantasy. Patricia antfJohn live somewhere in San Francisco and even though their apartment is not much to look at (two chairs and a couch, a phonograph and a television set that — ' didn't work), the presence of Willard enlivens the atmosphere and makes it pleasantly absurd. He keeps company with about 50 bowling trophies (which John found in an abandoned auto in Marin County) and even — shine a little grace on these "statues of silver manages and gold little men who were pitching little balls with their hands and seemed happy doing so." Willard, in fact, is a kind of dumb salvation for the bowling trophies; previously they had been locked up in a cabinet of "wooden gold" and stared at by the Logans, an idiotic family whose specialties are bowling (the three sons), to baking (the mother) and transmissions (the father). In determining the locus of benevolent fantasy in the apartment house, Willard not only makes life pleasant for John and Patricia and the bowling trophies, but also, in the end, saves them from being murdered. The three Logan brothers, championship small-town bowlers, have been searching for their stolen bowling trophies for three years (in Kansas they looked under bridges and in wheat fields) and have finally narrowed the field to San Francisco, where they wait in seedy rage for a magic phone call. For most of the book, the reader is waiting for the phone call too, so the brothers (all, to various degrees, — filthy, corrupt and mad) can go about their business and end the book with a murder or two. Of course, it is to be completely senseless murder, stupidly conceived and carelessly executed in the best West Coast fashion. Who the victims will be is clear from the start In the apartment upstairs from John and Patricia live Bob and Constance. They inhabit beautiful bodies (not tike John, who is slightly overweight, or Patricia, whose body is "adequate") and sex at one time "had been to them like having a beautiful picnic in a field of comets." But Constance, celebrating the publication of her first (and vaginal last) novel, picked up a wierd venereal disorder from a lawyer she met at a party. For a while she warts and Bob are reasonably happy with alternate sexual eventually including some amateur and practices that is, until Bob innocent variations on The Story of O acquires the parallel male disorder penile warts which are practically incurable. From then on their life becomes an empty sham: she silently wishes for a vacation from sex and The Greek from which Bob now constantly reads Anthology meaningless fragments out loud. He is rapidly becoming mentally and physically incapable of the simplest human actions. More, he feels sexually exiled and is in a constant state of vague sadness. It is easy to assume that if Bob and Constance had any power of imagination or fantasy outside of repetitive and unsatisfying sexual acts found in a single book that is, if they had Willard (or "someone" like him) to give life that keen air of absurdity and fun so necessary to Brautigan's they would be saved previous (and more gentle) worlds themselves, but from the not only from metaphor-made-reality of senseless destruction: the — — blundering and dangerous Logan brothers. — — — — - — — Willard and His Bowling Trophies is not less humorous than his previous books, but by examining soft porn and the mystery story, by inventing the poignantly modern troubles of Bob and Constance, and by creating the eerily twisted evil of three bowling champions gone berserk, Brautigan has left less room for humor. Willard, of all his books, is closest to real life and real times. I find myself wishing for Greer and Cameron of Hawkline Monster, for their casual and expert kind of murder, for their relaxed and consistent sexual prowess, and for their stupid courage. I wish all the harder when Brautigan proves he can invent the likes of the Logan brothers, whose search for America • has shrunk to a murderous search for a pointless end. —Corydon Ireland Our Weekly Reader Send for with just Get your new Metro Bus route map about everything you need to know to ride all by sending through Erie and Niagara Counties a self-addressed, business-size envelope with 20<t postage to Metro Bus, 855 Main St., Buffalo 14203, or pick up a map free at the office 1 — — Pul a little money in a Mel~o Bus and you can go a long, long way. metro bu/A Neil D.

Unfortunately, the results of AH the Moves are not nearly as impressive as the reason. The book begins with an interesting section describing the invention of basketball and its early development. Unfortunately, even this chapter is marred by poor writing; for instance. Dr. James A. Naismith, the game's inventor, named 13 rules to govern play, only eight of which the author mentions. From there, the quality of the book goes rapidly downhill it becomes a long list of names, places, scores and dates. The reader is constantly jolted with a string of names, preceded by the words "such stars as . ."

If we were so familiar with the stars of bygone eras, we probably wouldn't be reading a history of them. The book's best feature is its illustrations. Not just the superstars are pictured, but many "lesser stars" too. There is even a picture of Jackie Robinson in a UCLA uniform, along with a bit of trivia: he led the Pacific Coast Conference in scoring in 1940. The action shots are enough to make a true basketball fan jump out of his skin. To mention a few, we see David Thompson blocking (from behind) a shot by Bill Walton, we see Lew Alcindor towering over everyone else (and the backboard too) as he blocks a shot, and we see Adolph Rupp in tears, after coaching his last game for the.

If you enjoy basketball, you already know a book can never capture the excitement of a collegiate game. —Paige Miller 26 September 1975 The Spectrum Page eleven . . �Toward repertory... joyfully, it was always with the awareness that she would again despair; there was a marvelous suspension of glory and disillusion in the air and Kominsky's face and body. She seemed totally unself-conscious as a dancer. She has no ability to fake a phrase, and that sometimes works to her disadvantage. With a company of only two, everything reads there is no place to hide, and these two dancers' ability to keep their concentration nearly complete was no small achievement. As dancers, they are relaxed, with a sureness coming from more than just knowing their material. They shine through their material as people. 'They have no narcissism; they give, which is easy, but they do it without pandering. ; Great beginnings The narrow stage did not help this wide-open piece very much. What Becker handles with real the is elegance moment-to-moment concourse of of emotions and change when the two dancers dance together, which is usually the hardest thing to handle. This piece will grow and improve. Becker has learned now the hardest things first, will go back to clarify. The evening closed on a light note, "A Cold Sunday Afternoon, A Jittle Later,'"by Cliff Keuter, about what happens when the landlord fails to turn on the heat. —continued from page 8— Other choreographers in the repertory whose works were not shown include James Waring, Daniel Nagrin (Becker's uncle) and Jose Limon. Buffalo continues to have enthusiastic audiences for dance, and we hope that everything possible will be done to keep companies coming in. —Hear O Israel For gems from the JEWISH BIBLE Phone 875-4265 — , "Suite Bruce Becker’s Richard," based on Shakespeare's Richard III, was the longest ballet of the evening and Becker's first, completed only this year. The newcomer to choreography tends to put everything he knows into his first work, and so the piece was thick with wonderfully executed movement but lacked a clear definition of the relationship between Richard III and Lady Anne, whom he seduces, marries, and then murders.

Pink Floyd is back on the space odyssey. As you have possibly deduced from hearing it on your radio or turntable (or coming from five places at once in your dorm), Wish You Were Here is a pretty good album, and getting the reception it deserves. The band seems to have finally tied it all together meaning that the abstract textures, epic progressions, and general insanity oft their early albums have been combined with the good lyrics, fine instrumentals and excellent production of their most recent. If that last sentence sounds like an overdone list of superlatives, pick any two (I'm not even a Pink Flod fan). During the last two and a half years, Floyd loyalists and detractors alike have speculated as to how could they the quality of their next release possibly top the vastly succesfful Dark Side of the Moon If I'm not mistaken (or just sick of the last one), the band has been using the long interlude well, creating something a bit better.

Flo and Eddie are the aliases of a two some of debauched ex Turtles. You remember the Turtles, California sunshine, "Happy Together" and their immortal rendering of Robert Zimmerman's "It Ain't Me Babe." If you do recollect those exquisite golden moments of the past, paste a gold star on your lapel and consider yourself a master of trivia. But you may not call to mind the Turtles' meanest feat. The alleged feat transpired at a gig the Turtles were playing at the White House. It was a party for one of Dick Nixon's Barbie-Doll daughters and the aforementioned Flo and Eddie snorted up a quantity of Siggie Freud's favorite drug under a portrait of one of the founding fathers. This act was certainly illegal, probably immoral and perhaps fattening. Illegal, Immoral and Fattening just happens to be the name of Flo and Eddie's latest release. It is a sordid collection of what used to be referred to as risque or blue in the old days.

All things considered, this album contains the best lyrics to be found on any Pink Floyd album.

Dominated by the nine-part "Shine On You Crazy Diamond," the album demonstrates a well-realized muscial concept. Side one is opened Denver's member.

If the only way you can get your rocks off is to listen to a vulgar assortment of mindless skits. Illegal, Immoral and Fattening might satisfy you. I tend to doubt it though. What might be passable as a live act is merely an exercise in tedium on vinyl. The condescending attitude of Flo and Eddie pricks the surface They believe like P.T.

A Flock, Inside Out (Mercury) Here's a new one for you, kiddies. Flock. The whatever. A recently un-disbanded band Flock from Chicago, Flock had two moderately successful albums during the mid-late heavy metal sixties. Their claim to fame was in the person of their former violinist, Jerry Goodman, who eventually hooked up — with John McLaughlin, et. al. Their latest edition. Inside Out, includes two new musicians and a sound catering to the tastes of what has come to be known as a "progressive" audience. Mike Zydowsky, replacing Goodman, and keyboardist Jim Hirsen join veteran Flock members Fred Glickstein (guitar), Jerry Smith (bass), and Ron Karpman (drums) on an album which is, at times, fresh and exciting, and at other times, inately boring. Such is life in progressive rock. Inside Out is influenced mostly by Mahavishmu-type progressions, and also strains reminiscent of late-period Electric Light Orchestra. Detrimental to the quality of the album is the use of long-winded jams, which tend to put the listener to sleep. However, there are a few bright spots, particularly on "Metamorphosis," and "Straight Home," which close each side of the album. There are strong hints of a new style of jazz which is beginning to take hold in the seventies. It is music to take note of, for the future of rock is inevitably pointed in this direction. Some people will not like this album, mainly those who listen to muzak or playlist radio stations simply because they want some type of sound filling the silent parts of the day. They won't listen to music they might not immediately understand because they're afraid they might learn something. Groups like Flock deserve to be heard and learned from.

Despite public uproar, he will again be forced to pick the Bills to lose and the Jets to win. Pittsburgh is the class of the AFC, but Pittsburgh 24. Buffalo 20 - will make them prove it. New Orleans won’t win a game Cincinnati 27. New Orleans 13 make a difference. until it’s too late to Atlanta 21, Detroit 17 Falcons just missed upsetting St. Louis last week. This week they will make amends. One week does not a season Los Angeles 17, San Francisco 10 make. The Rams are still tops in the NFC West. the Bills - - - Plunkett-less Pats plod along against a 23. New England 9 Miami team seeking revenge for last week’s loss to Oakland. Vikings will win a few games before Minnesota 32, Cleveland 16 Miami - somebody upsets them. Giants were surprisingly good Washington 23, New York Giants 21 against Philadelphia, but the Redskins will not be stopped that easily. - New York Jets 35, Kansas City 17 Jets rebound after being creamed by Buffalo. Colts are better than expected, but still Oakland 27, Baltimore 17 with can’t compete Oakland. - Both teams were disappointing last Chicago 20, Philadelphia 12 a week. Neither one deserves to win this week. But the Wizard had nice time in Chicago once. The Doomsday Defense will not be as St. Louis 30. Dallas 20 fortunate against Jim Hart as they were against James Harris last week. Surprising Oilers go 2-0 as their Houston 22, San Diego 14 improved team dumps this year’s patsies, the Chargers. - Looking more like knights of the round table than college students, members of Buffalo's varsity fencing team displayed their swashbuckling talents in the Fillmore Room Wednesday night. The fencers dueled with each of the three weapons used in collegiate fencing; the epee, the sabre, and the foil. The demonstration was staged not only to publicize the team, which has been extremely successful over the years, but to get other students interested enough to tryout for the squad.

The Hewlett-Packard HP-21 Scientific $125.00* The Hewlett-Packard HP-25 Scientific Programmable $195.00* The calculations you face require no less. Today, even so-called "non-technical” courses (psych, soc, bus ad, to name 3) require a variety of technical calculations —complicated calculations that become a whole lot easier when you have a powerful pocket calculator. Not surprisingly, there are quite a few such calculators around, but ours stand apart, and ahead. We started it all when we introduced the world’s first scientific pocket calculator back in 1972, and we’ve shown the way ever since. The calculators you see here are our newest, the first of our second generation. Both offer you technology you probably won’t find in competitive calculators for some time to come/ if ever. Our HP-21 performs all arithmetic, log and trig calculations, including rectangular/polar conversions and common antilog evaluations. It’s display is fully formatted, so you can choose between fixed decimal and scientific notation. Our HP-25 does all that—and much, much more. It's programmable, which means it can solve automatically the countless repetitive problems every science and engineering student faces. With an HP-25, you enter the keystrokes necessary to solve the problem only once. Thereafter, you just enter the variables and press the Run/Stop key for an almost instant answer accurate to 10 digits. Before you invest in a lesser machine, by all means do two things: ask your instructors about the calculations their courses require; and see for yourself how effortlessly our calculators handle them. Both the HP-21 and HP-25 are almost certainly on display at your bookstore. If not, call us, toll-free, at 800-5B8-7922 (in Calif. 800-662-9862) for the name of an HP dealer near you.

Tolkien’s Middle-Earth, Arthur Clarke’s Rama, and Frank Herbert’s Dune do plodding down Main St., then you should be aware of as you It’s a science fiction the first full-fledged convention one to be held in Western New York, taking place October 24 through 27 in the Niagara Hilton Hotel in Niagara Falls,’N.Y. under the auspicies of the Western New York Science Fiction Society. Many science fiction writers and fans refer to the field as “speculative fiction,” eschewing the field’s image as the home of Buck Rogers, ray guns, and cardboard characterizations. But the most apparent quality of SF Anonycon. prominent criterion of “significant” literature), has now appeared in the form of fine studies by Sam Lundwall (Science Fiction: What It's All About ) and leading {Billion SF author Brian Aldiss Year Spree). — - has been joined by imagination a growing command among SF writers in the “mundane” aspects — of their craft. The best SF authors can now be numbered among the best modern writers; Tolkien, Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., and Harlan Ellison are among the more prominent examples. The field has also expanded, with the grasp of its authors, to encompass a great deal of its enormous potential. Such revolutionary authors as John Campbell were exploring the ramifications of contact with life on other planets, the nature of time and space, and other such subjects with great skill during the ’30’s and ’40’s. “Serious criticism,” something sorely missing from SF (and a This trip is necessary Enough academia. that would matter if such an expansive experience, at its best, succeeds in breaking borders of the mind. None of SF wasn’t trip; an that truly down the In the words of Anonycon Liason Chairman Paul Greenwald, “People who read SF tend to be much more involved in it than people who read y other forms of literature. They enjoy getting together; the more the better. SF is, perhaps more than any other branch of literature, an exchange of ideas, and this is one way of doing so.” Hence the idea of the an SF Con(vention) opportunity to meet fans and authors from all over the country and, often, the world. Yes, the authors. Beneath the surface of every SF author lies the fan he once was before he entered the field professionally. Cons are an important way for them to get - first-hand feedback on their own work and to keep up to date on wtat’s happening in the field. The fans, in turn, “know the authors as people, which gives you an added insight into their work,” Greenwald said. There is a Worldcon (World Science Fiction Convention) held every year in a major city, usually in the United States; last year’s “Aussiecon,” held in Australia, was an exception. In addition, regional cons are also held primarily in this country. As in “Aussiecon,” the name of the convention site usually gets involved in the con’s annually, name (Philadelphia’s Phillycon, Toronto’s Torcon). Greenwald explains that “Anonycon didn’t really have a name.” (“Bufcon” was unanimously rejected as a choice.) it’s anonymous. But, by looking at the spelling, we realized ‘‘So that it could also stand for ANOther NY CONvention, which it is,” Greenwald explained. Anonycon will follow several time-tested precedents for con events. Most important is the Guest of Honor, almost always a prominent SF writer. Anonycon’s Guest of Honor is Gordon R. Dickson, author of the novels Ancient. My Enemy; The R-Master, and the “Dorsai” series of novels and stories. Dickson has won both of the field's major awards, the Worldcon’s annual Hugo and the Science Fiction Writers of America’s Nebula. The Fan finest of Honor, a more recent con innovation, is Jay Kay Klein, a familiar face at practically every con ever held, and the official photographer for many of them. events include an art discussion panels, screenings of science fiction/fantasy films, a costume show with fans dressed as their favorite SF characters (exemplifying SF’s appeal to the emotions as well as the intellect), and a large “huckster’s room” where fans can buy and sell SF books, paperbacks, comics, and other related memorabilia.

Most of the WNY Science Fiction Society’s members also belong to the UB Science Fiction Club, which would welcome you to any of its weekly meetings Tuesdays from 5;30 p.m. till 8:30 Women's Studies Ketter to meet with WSC reps by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor Representatives of Women’s Studies College (WSC) will meet today with President Robert Ketter in his Hayes Hall office to discuss the College’s charter and the administration’s directive that WSC eliminate all-women classes from its program by October 15. Ketter approved the Women’s Studies charter last January on the condition that it be revised to indicate whether the words “woman” and “women” were used as generic or exclusive terms, that it expressly adopt the principles of academic freedom, and that the charter be reviewed formally after 18 months. Recently, however. Executive Vice President Albert Somit attempted to impose a deadline of August 15 for the College to discontinue its five all-women classes. Somit cited the College’s failure to comply with the President’s conditions and explained that the courses violate HEW Title IX guidelines which assure that no person be excluded from participation in any course or educational program on the basis of sex. Possible penalties He said in a telephone interview on September 8 that unless WSC allows men access to the five courses, they will “simply be barred” from the University course offerings in January 1976. College members also fear the administration will revoke the charter and cut off the College’s funding. The August 15 deadline was moved to October 15 Action when SUNY Central’s Committee on Affirmative into until after fall go not effect that Title did IX ruled 1975 registration and therefore did not apply to this semester’s courses. WSC spokespersons believe they have complied with Kener’s request by indicating with astericks where “woman” and “women” are used as exclusive terms in the charter. However, Charles Ebert, Dean of Undergraduate Education, described this as “the most superficial manner possible” for the College to “attempt” to comply. IheT was no attempt, he said, “to change the ‘ or sentence structure so that, where appropriate, la ,g se ;u dy i eutral nouns . . . could be used.” • No new conditions College member Rena Patterson said no new stipulations which go beyond the original ones set by Ketter last January will be considered, “we are willing to make changes consistent with Ketter’s request. We will accept no new ones,” she declared. Patterson fears if the administration is allowed to change its conditions for the WSC charter, “it will develop into a never-ending process,” whereby the College’s existence will constantly be threatened by administrative whim. “We are taking the position that we have carried out the President’s directives,” Patterson said. “We want to get the charter wording out of the way first,” she continued. “We're acting in good faith by calling for this meeting, and we’re going to assume that the University is going to act in good faith, also.” New demands The College objects to what it feels are “new,” more include eliminating the words “woman” and “women” from the charter instead of simply specifying where they are generic and exclusive, and having the charter as well as the College, adopt the principle of “academic freedom and equality of access to stringent demands, which may , courses.” These new directives are labeled a “unilateral violation of the agreement made between Women’s Studies and the administration.” At the time of the chartering, Ketter accepted in principle that “selected use” of all-woman’s classes could be “educationally valid.” Robert Ketter Further, it was stipulated that the educational validity of specified all-women’s classes would be decided through regular academic channels. Consequently, the five all-women’s courses were submitted and approved by the Division of Undergraduate Education’s Curriculum Committee last spring. WSC members defend the courses on the grounds that they are part of an Affirmative Action program. They feel the all-women courses are a redress for past discrimination against women in society and they are not being used as reverse discrimination against men. �Fall orientation A problem relieved for all transfers and freshmen control and tour guides to help ease the confusion. SA also set up an Information Fair in Norton on the first day of registration, where representatives of various campus agencies, provided new students with answers to their questions. Agencies such as Legal Aid, Financial Aid and the Division of Undergraduate Education participated in the fair. students.” SA also held two Amherst Campus “gripe This year’s orientation helped new students sessions” where students could express their complaints to Anthony Lorenzetti, Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs, and representatives from Campus Security, Food Service and other The Student Association (SA) feels one way to remedy the trauma and frustration of entering this University is a fall orientation program. The purpose of fall orientation, according to SA Director for Student Affairs Steven Schwartz, is to “relieve problems and provide activities for incoming organizations. Other activities in this year’s orientation program included concerts by seven top local bands, movie orgies, beer blasts and a Beatles Film Festival. The activities climaxed with the Robert Klein concert. Different emphasis Schwartz said that past fall orientations have been geared towards dorm students, rather than minority, foreign and commuter students. “This year the emphasis shifted,” he said. He hopes next year will include an even broader range of activities. A new SA project this year was the Orientation Handbook. The handbook was written to familiarize newcomers with on-campus operations and information on Buffalo in general. Schwartz was pleased with the quality of the book, which he partly authored, and the student reaction to it. He Steven Schwartz expects another one to be compiled next year. The funds for fall orientation were appropriated handle traditional problems and scheduled activities “unwind” from the tensions from a special $3 fee charged to all incoming allowed them to which freshman and transfer students. This year, due to of returning to school, Schwartz noted. good weather, early planning and having “something for everyone,” Schwartz said, the (all orientation More human When the dorms opened on August 21, SA and program was a success. Almost all of the Si 1.000 the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) sponsored traffic orientation budget was utilized, he added. Dorm radio Station WIRR needs money Plagued by insufficient funding, student apathy, and poor signal reception, WIRR, the student-run inter-dormitory radio station has never really been able to get itself off the ground, according to General Manager Jerry Maltz. This year, however, major innovations are being considered, which may enable the station to become an integral part of the University community. Maltz explained that if the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) approves the budget, WIRR could achieve its immediate goal of expanding its signal to the Governors’ Dorms on the Amherst Campus. This is an extremely difficult process because the station broadcasts on carrier current AM through the dorms electrical system, he explained, and not over the airwaves. Thus, any expansion requires the installment of expensive new electrical cables. More variety Along with meeting the great diversity of musical tastes of the students, Maltz hopes this year WIRR will also emphasize campus and public affairs programming. Some of the possibilities being considered, are live coverage of this University’s and basketball games, as well as “on the spot” reports from campus events and demonstrations. Still being discussed with the Student Association Speakers Bureau is the possibility of live broadcasts of its campus lectures, Maltz said. Another change at WIRR is the concept of “bloc” type programming. Under this plan, specific segments of air time would be devoted to the different types of music. This week WIRR will be circulating a music survey on the Main Campus dorms to assess exactly what hours are most favorable for all of the different hockey musical styles. Probably the most important function of WIRR, is that it serves as a training center for students planning a career in broadcasting, Maltz indicated. Disc jockeys receive training in engineering as well as basic techniques in putting together their shows. The station is always looking for new personnel. Anyone interested should consult the Backpage of The Spectrum for the times of station meetings. Protection of security deposits NYPIRG aim The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) has recently published a handbook which could solve your security deposit problems. The pamphlet, entitled Damages Deposits: How Not To Lose Them, is one of many similar publications which are currently being used throughout the country. The handbook is essentially a list of items that a tenant and landlord can check together before the paying of the security deposit. The list covers eight categories, ranging from hot water works, to mail box keys, to sanitation regulations. The handbook recommends that “before you pay your security deposit, survey your prospective home carefully to determine what on the premises is in poor or damaged condition. After recording all on the checklist, the handbook says to obtain the landlord’s and then give him a copy Thus, when the tenant moves out of the apartment, the landlord cannot charge him or her for any items that were already damaged when the apartment was first occupied, NYP1RG maintains. “Often when a student moves out of an apartment after graduation, both landlord and tenant forget the conditions of the apartment that existed when the tenant moved in,” Donald Ross, Director of NYP1RG explained. “When the checklist is completed, both landlord and tenant have a copy which can later be used as a verification source, when it is time for the tenant to move out. J “Experience shows us that this checklist can eliminate and simplify security deposit problems,” he said. A copy of the handbook may be obtained from the NYPIRG office, Room 311 Norton Hall. damages signature 1 /T/r SAFETY INSPECTION Hear 0 Israel For gems from the JEWISH BIBLE 10%0ff on your German, Swedish, or Japanese Car Phone 875-4265 with this ad INDEPENDENT [of tires, brakes, shocks, Steering, The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the CLOGS academic year and on Friday only The the summer by during Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc.

The students are; Gene loli, Judy Sack, Steve Speigel, Mark Silverman, Jon Roller and John Siegel. Seigel tallied the highest number of votes, a total of 118. One write-in vote was even registered for Patty Hearst, noted Stephanie Wonder, SA Elections and Credentials-Officer, The results of the dorm election will not be announced, until a dispute concerning possible invalidation is brought before the Student-Wide Judiciary later this week. Senate candidate Bert Black was disqualified from the election after allegedly posting campaign signs which carried false information. He was later reinstated, but signs saying Black had been disqualified bad already been posted. Black obtained an injunction against the election, claiming his chances of winning were damaged by the signs. The Judiciary’s decision, as well as the dorm election results should they be upheld, will be announced later in the week. Another election to select this University’s student representative to the College Council will be held September 30. Preventative information Legal aid clinic to expand its services by Howard Greenblatt Campus Editor The Student Legal Aid Clinic, originally opened as a free “first aid” clinic for students with legal problems, is expanding its services to provide more • “preventative information” to students, according to Lynne Stenclik, Public Relations Director. The Legal Aid Clinic is run by a staff of 18 employees, most of whom are undergraduates at this University. Students seeking its services are statement to sign a acknowledging that required they understand the clinic does not provide “legal advice or opinion,” but rather legal “information. We are not lawyers and we don’t give legal advice,” Stenclik said. fraud, traffic tickets, and divorce. Before 1971, students with legal problems were directed to Committee, The seven-member committee was appointed last year by President Robert Ketter and Richard Siggelkow, Vice President for Student Affairs, to develop an overall perspective on commuter Committee Chairman John Buerk cited —Kanicki Lynne Stenclik _ _ - Typical Chevy A markedly high cost for commuters is that of operating a car, Buerk said. He shows that a 1974 intermediate size eight cylinder Chevelle with standard accessories runs about 5.7 cents a mile for the anthropological theory “Territorial Imperative” to describe the milieu of commuter students. The theory observes that animals naturally stake out and protect certain territories. The committee, accordingly, sees a need for an established “territory” which commuters can call their own. Buerk feels that because resident students live on campus, they tend to act like the facilities on campus are solely for them. One area recently set aside for commuters as a study and lounge room is now in use on the third floor of Norton Hall. The lounge offers a relaxed, quiet atmosphere where commuters can study or talk with friends without having to shout over the high noise levels in other parts of the Union. Cheap buses A plan whereby commuters would pay reduced bus fares on the Niagara Frontier Transity Authority’s (NFTA) bus lines was proposed by student Donna Buehler and Student Association (SA) executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde. Buehler and Lalonde believe that the benefits will be significant; fewer cars wasting less gas, less hitching and more parking for everyone. Although NFTA rejected the initial proposal, the company’s head, Chester Hardt. expressed enthusiasm for the idea. One alternative under consideration would be for SA to subsidize up to 25 percent of the fares, a plan which Buffalo State College experimented with last year. “It’s something you can hold in your hand and at least know what your S67 mandatory fee is doing for you,” Lalonde said. Proponents of the plan stress that NFTA does not stand to lose by offering the reduced rate, and are still trying to convince them of its merits. They argue that increased student usage of city buses will provide NFTA with an extra source of income to offset the revenue loss incurred by reducing tares. To document these arguments, a survey of student populations along already existing bus routes was taken, and computer approximations were compiled to determine how many students are in class at each hour of the day. The findings support the merits of the proposals, Lalonde said. In a study entitled, “Does it cost less to matters, small claims procedure, arrests, drug laws, consumer Informal to formal to secure reduced city bus fares for commuter students is among the many proposals under study by the Commuter Student Affairs A plan problems here. commute.” In his study, Buerk found that the food bill averages $17.70 per week to feed a 15—20 year old male or $247.80 a semester. For campus residents, the current board cost is $420 or $210 a semester. This covers 18 meals per week. than to by Paul Buttino Spectrum Staff Writer Rider study the most common information it dispenses to students are landlord/tenant Among A little forsight Stenclik feels many legal problems could be prevented if students had a little forsight. “Students don’t think of themselves as citizens with legal rights and responsibilities until after they have a problem. Our by giving aim is to protect them them information in advance,” slie said. In order to spread this information, the Clinic distributes pamphlets on such subjects as search and seizure, housing, drug laws, and arrest rights. A weekly radio broadcast on WBFO is planned, as well as seminars and workshops on such topics as “How to Read a Lease,” Stenclik said. Additionally, the clinic will set up an informational table on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the Norton Hall Center Lounge. The Clinic also retains an attorney, Norman Effman, to advise students with more serious legal problems. The first consultation is provided by the Clinic free of charge. Effman is also a constant source of information to the Clinic staff, and in almost all cases, is consulted before a staff member releases any information. Reduced bus fare weighed commute than to live in a dorm?” Buerk concluded that “in the long run, it costs less to live on campus —I ekes John Buerk gas, oil and regular maintenance, in addition to charges for insurance. If these figures are totaled, the sum would be $1,092 per year, or $2.99 per day, Buerk pointed out. Buerk assumes an average student would drive his or her car 10,000 miles per year, or 200 miles per week, at a cost of $32.37. If this figure is multiplied by 15 weeks, it can be said a commuter spends $388 44 per semester for transportation, excluding depreciation, Buerk’s figures show. Time saved by the campus residents over the commuter is hard to estimate, the study found, yet, both commuters and residents agree to the advantages of the immediate library access and the helpful aspects of comparing notes with other students,. the Office of Student Affairs, where Richard Siggelkow, Vice President for Student Affairs, provided advice on an informal basis. In trying to develop a more formal legal advisory service, the Advocates Office, a branch of the administration staffed by Effman and other attorneys was formed. The Advocates Office primarily represented students in grievance procedures against various departments, to insure that their rights weren’t violated. The Office closed in 1971, partly due to administration shifts and partly because it didn’t pay to have sitting full=time attorneys in an office waiting for two student complaints. As a result the Student Legal Aid Clinic was developed as a branch of the Student Association’s (SA) Office of Student Rights. By late 1973, the Clinic moved into its own offices in 361 Norton Hall.

Department Chairman Chester Langway will head the program, which he feels has wide implications for environmental and climatological studies. The research centers on the analysis of cylindrical ice core samples, extracted by expedition teams from various drilling sites in Greenland and Antarctica over the past few years. Langway, an eminent glaciologist, arrived in Buffalo last January from The Wilmette Research Laboratory in Illinois, an institution which has been at the forefront of this field for a number of years. Since January there has been rapid progress in the construction of laboratory and cold storage facilities for the ice core samples, which arrived here in mid-June. Langway emphasized that the University is the only school in the country conducting this type of investigation on a large scale basis, and thus Buffalo has become a focal point of international glaciological research. The ice cores reveal a marked increase in the concentration of sulfate ions since the inception of the Industrial Revolution, as a result of burning of massive amounts of hydrocarbons. Substantial increases in the concentrations of various other atmospheric contaminants, including lead, stemming from the widespread use of leaded gasoline in the internal combustion engine, are discernable in the glacial record of the last fifty years. This finding was one of the primary mot vating factors facilitating the availa bility of unleaded gasoline. extensively" for their peculiar physical and chemical characteristics. The physical analysis consists mainly of observing the layer structure of the cores on light tables. The object of this is to develop a “depth-age” relationship, by studying melt features and density changes in the ice, in a manner analagous to the coutning of the annual rings in trees. After the depth »age relationships of ice cores from several sites 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 are also dated through the use of radioactive isotopes. But this aspect of glaciological research is conducted mainly by Swedish and Danish researchers, who are America’s partners in ice sheet study. Pure water Another facet of research is chemical analysis. Melt samples from the cores (vials of the cores in liquid state) are studied for “trace elements” and other particles. Because the water which constitutes the ice is more pure than water which is laboratory distilled, the analyses must be out in dust-free carried Age determination laboratories. These facilities, three-inch diameter ice The core samples are “time capsules of completed just recently, contain geological and climatological one area where there is no more events and trends, extending as far than one part of dust per cubic back as 125,000 years,” Langway meter of air. The relative amounts of various said. The samples are studied —Kanickl Chester Langway; substances, ranging from lead and sulfur to volcanic dust, are compiled through complex chemical analyses of the ice. Upward or downward trends in the amount of volcanic dust, Langway expalined, can reveal the birth or termination of ice ages and the resulting modifications in climate. The researchers closely study trends of the last thousand years. Ozone layer debate Continued chemical analysis may jhed some light upon the current debate over whether or not aerosol can emmissions (flouro carbons) are depleting the ozone layer of the atmosphere. In fact, Langway revealed, this level are to be conducted this spring. Because the ice sheets pick up and preserve wind-borne particles, they form an accurate record of man’s pollution of the environment. Langway said that ice core drilling is a new development opened in the last twenty years. Prior to this, glacial research was confined to the study of prominent surface characteristics of Sanstrugi, which are wind-eroded glacial features. In 1950, with the advent of serious ice drilling by the French in Greenland and the Swedes in Antarctica, there was a burgeoning international interest in the investigation of the “hidden third dimension” of glaciers. Starting in the mid-1950’s the United States, through the National Science Foundation (NSF) embarked upon a major effort to develop efficient ice drilling equipment. The new equipment was tested out in the polar regions, and by 1958 cores up to 1450 feet were being drilled at the Ross Ice Shelf and Byrd Station in Antarctica. In 1966 at Camp Century, Greenland, a core was drilled through 5000 feet of ice. This core represents 125,000 years of glaciological history. Every year from 1971 to 1975 Langway was in Greenland taking part in the drillings. These samples, when laid end to end, measure four miles in length. The cores, enveloped in plastic bags to prevent sublimation, are stored in cold rooms at -30 degrees centigrade. They are regularly shipped to various research facilities in Denmark, Sweden and Japan. One set of ice core samples will be exhibited at Expo ’75, in Okinowa, Japan. There has been a recent flurry of activity in this highly specialized aspect of geology. Interest in the field has been mounting. Fifty journal articles are direct spinoffs of ice core research. The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) recently produced a documentary on the topic and there are now thirty different ice core studies being conducted worldwide. Wednesday, 24 September 1975 .

WASHINGTON “1 don’t belong to an the great comedian party,” organized political “I’m said, once a Democrat.” Will Rogers witty observation is still valid. No Rogers’ matter how hard they try, the Democrats just can’t seem to get along. On Capitol Hill, for example, a brutal power struggle is shaping up over a successor to House Speaker Carl Albert of Oklahoma. Albert hasn’t shown any signs of quitting, of course, but that hasn’t deterred some of his ambitious colleagues. The furor started when Rep. Richard Bolling of Missouri began spreading the word in the Democratic cloakrooms that he is a candidate for the Majority Leader job, how help by Rep. Thomas “Tip” O’Neill of Massachusetts. Veteran Democrats took this as a signal that Albert was stepping down and O’Neill was moving up. Albert and Bolling are good friends, the polls reasoned, so Bolling would never talk about moving up in the House hierarchy without the Speaker’s approval. Albert caught wind of the rumors and promptly issued a stern denial that he is planning to retire. Nevertheless, Tip O’Neill is quietly lining up support for the Speaker’s seat. He’s not the only one panting for the job. Rep. Phil Burton of California, chairman of the Democratic Caucus, and Rep. Wayne Hays of Ohio, chairman of the Administration Committee have let it be known that they want it, too. The upcoming Presidential elections will present the Democrats with still another opportunity to display their three-ring political circus. Indeed, they’ve already begun tuning up their acts. Senator Birch Bayh of Indiana, for example, recently jumped into the Presidential arena and landed on some delicate toes. He has been pushing the oil issue and has proposed breaking up the major energy cartels. He has garnered a lot of publicity on the issue, and some of his colleagues are grumbling that he is a Johnny-come-lately. Senators Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin and Phil Hart of Michigan, for instance, have been working quietly on the oil question for years. They didn’t appreciate it, say our sources, when Bayh began stealing their thunder. But no one was angrier than presidential rival Morris Udall, the Congressman from Arizona. He introduced legislation similar to Bayh’s last spring, but it went virtually unnoticed. The Democrats, in sum, managed to slice each other up in both 1968 and 1972, and thereby greased the skids for Richard Nixon. It's beginning to look as if they might repeat the performance for Gerald Ford in 1976. Smoke Got In Their Eyes: Congressional lethargy on such critical issues as energy, health, and tax reform is legendary.

Editor's " The Spectrum by Jack Anderson with Joe Spear The tobacco industry recently picked up a million subsidy in record time. While impprtant national legislation languished in endless committee meetings, the tobacco bill zipped through Congress, bending the rules as it $50 went. Rep. Walter Jones, D—N.C., started it all when he took the extraordinary measure of calling his Tobacco subcommittee out of recess to act on the subsidy bill. Then in the full Agriculture Committee, an important pesticides bill was put aside, and the subsidy quickly passed. One week later, the House passed the bill, after it was moved ahead of other legislation by unanimous consent. In the Senate, the charade of public hearings was disposed of on a technicality and the subsidy was whisked directly to the floor. It was passed on Yom Kippur. Only four Senators were present. The legislators who were adamantly opposed to the subsidy had been told that no important legislation would be taken up on the Jewish holiday. President Ford and the Agriculture Department opposed the bill, but the President will probably sign it into law anyway, sources say. It is apparently part of a legislative horse trade the White House has made with Congress. So whether you are a smoker or not, a portion of your next tax bill will subsidize the tobacco industry. Cuban Consumer: Since Gerald Ford moved into the White House, relations with Cuba have been slowly warming. Washington and Havana are not exactly kissing cousins yet, but things are definitely improving. Premier Fidel Castro, for example, has returned a few hijackers along with their booty. For its part, the United States has partially relaxed its 13-year-old economic embarge against Cuba. What’s behind it all? Why does Fidel Castro even want friendly relations with a country that has ostracized him for over a decade? We’ve spoken to a number of intelligence sources, and to prominent people who have recently visited Cuba. They all say the same thing: Castro has little desire to sell sugar or any other Cuban product to the United States. He wants to buy American products. Castro is especially interested in medical supplies, beef and farm products. And he’s tired of the inferior vehicles he’s been getting from East European countries. He wants to purchase Ameiican-made trucks. He may soon get what he wants. Senators Ted Kennedy. D-Mass., and James Abourezk, D-S.D., have already introduced legislation that would wipe out restrictions against exports to Cuba. These bills are now under consideration by a Senate committee.

I refer to one David Rubin of “The Wizard? of Odds.” His pick of the Jets over the Bills was one of the most insane predictions I’ve ever seen. This alone was not bad though. Upsets do happen once in a while. But to pick the Jets as division champs must be one of his wet dreams. If they stay ouf of the cellar, it will be a big enough accomplishment. A patched up secondary is better than no defense at all Namath - 42 points. Even a healthy Joe cannot move the “powerful” — 14 points - offense the garbage can Jets have.

Outside Looking In To the Editor. by Clem Colucci “It should be clear: when a nation’s production is carried out under a system of private ownership for private profit, the needs and interests of the majority are compromised.” The Spectrum editorial, Wednesday, September 17. It is not clear. In the United States, where a system of private enterprise has existed for 200 years, the majority enjoys the highest living standards in the world. Workers’ salaries are steadily climbing and in some instances have exceeded $15,000 a year. The working class generally venerates the American system and is opposed to socialism. In Red China, where the means of production are owned not by private businessmen but by publicrulers, there has been a ban on pay raises for years. Recent worker agitation was suppressed by government troops; the workers were re-educated and informed that the wage freeze was to be extended indefinitely. Thus, the statement quoted above needs clarification. Michael Morton Editor’s note: I agree, Mr. Morton, the statement does need clarification. Unfortunately, it is difficult to clarify, in this short space, what it has taken books and decades of work to explain. The primary drive for each enterprise under the capitalist system is to maximize their profits . for if one doesn't, he will be bought out by one who has. To do this, big capitalists will attempt to keep wages down, obtain cheap raw materials and seek new markets. During the I920's, 30's and 40’s American workers staged tremendous battles to defend their economic interests in the face of wage cuts, unemployment and economic scarcity, and formed trade unions. Making use of our nation's democratic rights, such as freedom of speech, press, assembly and the vote, helped in this fight. So the owners of private industry looked to foreign countries, where labor was cheap and democratic rights few or non-existent, to make up a high margin of profit. Under these oppressive conditions, the people in some of these countries succeeded in overthrowing their repressive governments, and took away the "freedom" of American industries to continue making superprofits off their people’s labor. The chicken is now coming home to roost. Private American industries are making up high profits by raising their prices. While some announce record profits, they fight tooth and nail to avoid maintaining our nation’s social services. Thus the quality of life is deteriorating for the majority of the American people, despite the high level oj productive work they continue to perform. Yes, I do believe that the public ownership of the p roductive processes, with the democratic participation of the people at all levels is the solution. While errors on the part of China's current leading figures account for that nation’s economic problems, they have gone a long way since the days of Chiang Kai Shek. In contrast, the other socialist countries, while not without problems, have recorded stead and impressive economic progress. schoolwork, yet unusual gets an of number Reared Hack grab that person and bring him or her to his or her senses.

Edith Nemecek, whose husband Charles graduated from the UB Dental School in 1937, left the gift at the wish of her previously deceased husband. Not only said. He added that Children’s Hospital, as a principal pediatric referral center, is ideal for those dental students wanting to later specialize in pedodontics. Currently, the pedodontics clinics at Children’s and the University have a total of 18 dental units chairs and equipment. Following completion of the first phase of expansion and consolidation of the two clinics, there will be 31 units. An additional 14 units are to be added later in the second phase. - More children Noting that about 7,000 patient visits were recorded at each location last year, Pedodontics Department Chairman, Dr. Charles L. Boyers, Jr., said the new facility will permit more youngsters to did Dr. Nemecek have a thriving practice specializing, in the treatment of children until a stroke forced early retirement, but he gave a great deal of time to the underprivileged youngsters at the Guggenheim Clinic in New York City. Roblin said the Nemecek money will be used to match funds being solicited from School of Dentistry alumni, faculty and friends. “For every $1 given by this group, $2 will be given by the Nemecek fund,” he said. Already the University Dental Alumni Association has responded to the challenge by donating a $20,000 leadership gift, according to Dr. William Hancock, President. He said the early pedodontic clinic at Children’s began about 1935 under the direction of Dr. Eugene North, a Buffalo dentist who was the first chairman of the Department of Pedodontics at the University’s School of Dentistry. “Pedodontics is the fastest growing specialty and hospital based teaching programs for students are becoming more popular.

Syracuse was the overall winner of the quadrangular meet. The graduation of last year’s captain, Paul Carroll, and Larry Mentkowski, along with an injury to future hopeful John Ryerson, forced the Bulls to field a squad composed primarily of untested freshmen in what was termed a “futile effort for victory.” Although the Bulls were defeated* third-year coach Jim McDonough still seemed very optimistic about his team’s future, noting that it takes time for the new freshmen runners to get used to the change from the two mile high school course to the six mile collegiate one. McDonough also seemed very pleased with the performance of junior Mark Rybinski, who finished tenth (32:43) in the field of forty. McDonough attributed Rybinski’s good time to summer training and participation in various road races. On the other hand, returning letterman Kevin Lynch didn’t do as well as expected, finishing 26th (34:16). Lynch explained that he didn’t run well because he didn’t run fast enough, but he expects to do better in the future. Poor financing One reason for the Bulls’ last place finish is their last place financial position. Syracuse, Rochester, and Niagara all have more money at their disposal for equipment and scholarships, giving them a significant recruiting advantage. But when McDonough was asked if he thought that the schools with the biggest budgets have the best teams, he replied, “no, the schools with the best runners do.” It’s just that in the case of this meet, as in many others, the schools with the best runners just happen to have the biggest budgets too.

Bulls Meahwhile, another pitcher, Jim Miewczyk, has been undergoing a change of his own. “I’m trying a different motion,” said the big senior. “It’s supposed to make you faster.” He remarked that he was pitching faster after he had gone six innings against Niagara for the win ■ ■ The lopsided score also gave Monkarsh a chance to get a look at some of his substitutes. The Bulls have been decimated by injuries to several key players, and the back-up crew could play an important role. “The guys are still vying for positions,” Monkarsh said. “I wanted to get as many in as possible.” The cancellation of the second game of the doubleheader robbed Monkarsh of the chance of looking at more of his charges.

Page nine �A message for the influencers: Today, millions of people who have never had a course in economics are influencing the structure of our economic system by their action, or inaction. Yet the well-being of each individual and family depends on sound economics. Realizing that “the doctor” needs to know "the patient”, The Business Roundtable is sponsoring messages that discuss inner workings of our American economic system, They are giving this special “mini course” monthly exposure before the country’s largest reading audience in Reader’s Digest. ADVERTISEMENT � Free EnterpriseIs This Any Way to Live? � Every you pick up a paycheck, buy a gallon of gas or make a bank deI posit, you renew your active membership in the American free market. Our economic system’s . culiarly vital effectiveness almost infinite freedom of choice between house and condominium, one supermarket and another, large car and small —is the “humdrum” reality of the highest standard of living in the world. And yet a vocal group of economists, social reformers, “consumer advocates” and other self-proclaimed critics are trying to convince us that our system is evil, that we should feel guilty about the way we live. Indeed, one of them says that our system “has issued a death sentence against the individual human spirit” and “plunged our country into its present economic chaos, destroyed the lives of millions of families and threatened the very survival of the republic.’” Strong stuff. But is it even partially true? Maybe it’s time to remind ourselves of a few facts as we consider the following charges against our way of life; Free enterprise exploits people. The critics say that the system degrades man, making him a cog in the industrial machine, repressing his individualism. Yet how can they reconcile this darkly tinted 19thcentury view with the Pittsburgh steelworker who hitches his motorboat to his new car and heads for his cottage on Deep Creek Lake, — • dollars) Page ten . to the afraid that we’ll make the “wrong” choice between wool and nylon, pretzels and carrot cookies.

Nor does it jibe with polls showing that Americans 8 to 1 like their jobs. The free enterprise system makes us selfish and materialistic. No one doubts that our economic system has produced an extraordinary abundance of material goods. And it is true that “average Americans” spend nearly half their total income on what they want (the other half takes care of necessities food, clothing, housing). No people have ever lived so comfortably. But the record indisputably shows that, even as they have enjoyed and insisted upon material benefits, they have poured out much of their material wealth unselfishly. In 1965, for example, we gave $12.2 billion to churches, hospitals, schools and a dizzying variety of charitable causes. Last year, despite recession, we gave REPRINTED FROM THE SEPTEMBER 1975 ISSUE OF READER'S DIGEST . concept of voluntcerism. Our way of life debases our taste. The critics picture us as helpless slaves to manufacturers, addicted to a stream of frivolous products put out purely for profit. But if we don’t want such products, we don’t buy them. The choice is ours. Critics also blame the system for the fact that some of us persist in eating “junk food” or listening to “awful noise” on the radio. They’re Md., on summer weekends, or the machine operator in Dayton who rises to plant manager ? The view is hardly compatible with the fact that median family real income (figured constant we earn our “daily bread” in this country is under attack as never before. It’s time to face up to the question . * time The way abundance. “Indeed,” notes economist Milton Friedman, “a major source of objection to a free economy is precisely that it does this task so well. It gives people what-they want instead of what a particular group thinks they ought to want. Underlying most arguments against a free market is a lack of belief in freedom itself.” Free enterprise concentrates wealth and power in the hands of a few. In no other society is wealth so obviously in reach of its people. The Bureau of Census reports 59.2 percent of national income goes to the 103 million people in families making $10,000 to $25,000. More significant, in 1962 there were 464,000 households making over $25,000. By 1973, there were 5.4 million such households— a more than tenfold increase —astounding even when inflation is taken into account. One indicator of how wealth is distributed in America; two out of every three families own or are purchasing the dwelling in which they live. Well, then, say the critics, wealth and power must be in the hands of big corporations. But who arc these corporations? They are more than 51 million Americans who own corporate stock, plus more than too million others who indirectly share in ownership through stock owned by life-insurance companies, pension • funds, etc. Says economist Charls Walker, “I know it’s fashionable to say that the big interests run the government. But if that’s true, how in the world were the taxes of ‘big interests’ raised by $6.5 billion in the 1969 Tax Reform Act? And why haven’t those ‘big interests’ prevented the passage of inimical regulatory acts?” Bepeople— who run the marketplace —still run the country. cause the Perhaps you’ve noticed that the ease against the free market is seldom made on hard economic grounds, but rather on hard-to-pin-down philosophical issues. That’s because the facts of performance are so overwhelmingly in its favor. Here are some figures: With seven percent of the world’s land area and six percent of the population, we produce 33 percent of the world’s goods and services (about equal to the total output of Western Europe and Japan combined). Although our labor force is approximately twothirds the size of the Soviet Union’s, we produce twice as much as the Russians do each year. In 1940, one American farm worker fed about ten people. Today, a single American farm worker feeds 54 people here and abroad. But all the evidence of the system’s well-known efficiency and productivity is ultimately not as important as a certain intangible that looms larger than mere economics. This is the subtle blend of freedom and order inherent to the marketplace. You are free to decide how best your skills can be applied, where you will work, what you will buy with your earnings. Can you imagine some central authority deciding who will be a tool-and-dic maker in Latrobe, Pa., or a vacuum-cleaner repairman in Keokuk ? The free market monitors an incredibly complex assortment of prices, wages, resources, skills, needs, desires —and yet it leaves you in control.

It can give the judge the power of life and death, of who should go to jail and who should be. set free, he added. The course is structured for students who might someday have to deal sociologists, with sentencing psychologists and pre-law students, i ,r Another course in tne College of Urban Studies is, “Analysis of Homicide" taught by Chief Lee Donovan of the Buffalo Police Homicide Department and Defense Attorney Herbert Siegel. Donovan said he teachc#the course for people whose studies might involve law enforcement in the areas of sociology or psychology. Course member* inspect actual files of already resolved cases and hear video tapes 6f subjects confessing to homicides. “We can give up to date information rather than have students reading graphs in a book that may be ten years old," said Donovan. Contributing Editor The Colleges were designed to give students an alternative to the traditional university education but they are also offering an alternative to the traditional university professor. Police officers, government officials, and professionals from 1 all walks of life are teaching the “practical” aspects of their jobs to interested undergraduate audiences. Irving Spitzberg, Dean of the Colleges 300 courses explained that of the 250 offered each semester, about half are taught by people with no other affiliation to the University. “People with special expertise, and unique qualifications,” said Spitzberg, “teach because they like to, not because they’re obligated to, and it shows in the quality of their teaching.” Spitzberg also pointed out that these people have contact and experience with the outside world that.is sometimes lacking in traditional academic personnel. “It’s important to undergraduates to have access to the enthusiasm and frustrations that these people can communicate on the basis of experience,” he said. - - Unique The course also covers the slep-by-step investigation procedure used by police in investigating a homicide and analyzes the sociological aspects of homicide and violence. Siegel covers the defense aspect of homicide, referring to the same cases as Urban Studies One of the more renowned members of the Colleges’ faculty is Supreme Court Judge Joseph Mattina, who teaches “Problems of Sentencing” in the College of Urban Studies. The course focuses on the role of the judge in sentencing, which Mattina.feels, is “one of the most neglected areas from a judicial as well as a Donovan. Siegel, teaching this course for the filth semester, said “It’s like trying a good case. The course is interesting for me and hopefully for the students. It is unique, the only course like in in the country.” can give a practical approach.” Harold Lawrence, President of the Buffalo Philharmonic teaches Arts Management in College B, which he says involves “everything to do with the management- of an Arts organization.” Lawrence wants to develop closer tics between the Philharmonic and the leading institutions of the area and he feels the class is a means to this end. Also, with thirty years experience in the field of arts management, he feels he can offer the student something more than an academian. Although salaries for these instructors $1,000, Spitzberg range from only $350 admitted that these are just the people the Rachel Carson College also offers several courses taught by outside people, among them “Introduction to Environmental Problems” by Merit Van Licr, the executive director of the Erie County Management Council. The course covers basic ecology, population, water and air quality, environmental management, land use and the social issues involved with environmental problems. Van Lier. holding undergraduate degrees in Chemistry and Geology and a Masters degree in Environmental Science, said he enjoyed teaching and working .with students.

If the tenant still feels cheated, he or she can file a claim in Small Claims Court. “Students do not realize that they are bound legally, once they have signed a lease, and there is no guarantee that a lawyer will be able to help you after you have a ‘bad’ lease,” signed Hoover emphasized. The Legal Aid Clinic urges students to ask for legal assistance before signing any lease, and to do their best to educate themselves before embarking on their search for an off-campus apartment. �students complain about linen Money Research grants available The Council then judges the student 4 proposal according to criteria, including the “societal and educational merit of the proposed study,” and the “development of individual competence and Now in its ninth year, the Undergraduate Research Council is providing opportunities for independence in the participant.” Research grants financial grants to undergraduate students desiring to are given per semester although in some instances, a do research they would otherwise be unable to do. full year is required.

Black reported these complaints in a September fifteenth memo to Kevin Seitz, Faculty Student Association Service Center Manager. Frontier Linen Service, which supplies this University, is one of the largest commercial laundries in the area. According to Seitz, they claim “their foreman will drink the water from the final rinse, it is so clean.” Seitz then explained three possible reasons for the stained linen. When the detergent is placed'in the laundry, a very precise mixture is required to clean the laundry properly. If the detergent mixture is just slightly off, it can cause the linen to burn. The burnt linen would appear brown. However this washes out if the linen is re-washed, he $iven explained. Chemical Stains A second possibility is that the University received linen that was previously used by a commercial customer, and therefore, stained by chemicals. Because of the use of its linens by commercial customers, Seitz added, Frontier launders its linen at temperatures forty to fifty degrees higher than home washers. These linens are not dirty, he asserted. They either have to be reprocessed by Frontier or in the future, given to their “heavy” commercial users. The third possibility, which Seitz claims is highly unlikely, is that some “unprocessed” linen Was received. In that event, it probably would have been detected by ,Linen Service personnel and returned to Frontier, he said. Black fears that many students are either embarassed, or just do not know where to complain. In the future, Seitz encourages students to inspect their linen in their rooms and to return any defective items immediately.

Graduate vs. T.B. in S. Korea The battle against tuberculosis, a disease which has almost been eliminated in the United States, goes on in South Korea, and Paul Arndt, a 1971 graduate of the State University at Buffalo, is in the front lines. Arndt is a Peace Corps volunteer who is working in the South Korean capital of Seoul on a new tuberculosis control problem. The program is being coordinated by the Korean National Tuberculosis Association and the Korean Ministry of Health and Social Affairs. “TB is more than a serious problem here in Korea; it’s a major killer,” he says. The current program, if successful, will have two main benefits. First, it will reduce the cost of TB control in Korea, and second, it will make it easier for the patients to take their medication. Arndt explains, “As things stand, most TB patients here have to take twenty large pills a day to control their disease. If the regimen we are studying works,.we can cut that to just ten tiny pills a day and have less side effects.” Involved in health The 26-year-old is one of 200 Peace Corps volunteers in Korea, 70 of whom are involved in health programs. Arndt’s association with the Corps began in late 1971, only a few months after his graduation from Page two . The Spectrum . this University. His major was Asian history A small mountain town in Korea was his first stop, and it was there that he began his work in TB control. After completing his two-year term, Arndt obtained a position in Cleveland, Ohio, with the United States Public Health Service. He got so involved with the control of infectious diseases that he requested the opportunity to participate in a Peace Corps study program. Soon, an assignment to Korea became available, and Arndt jumped at it. Asian interests While his main concern is presently TB control, his interests in Asian history have led him to find out much about the people of Korea, their culture, and their history. “In just everyday living, you’d be surprised how muclfyou can learn,” he noted. >H Arndt hopes to use the experience; he’s gaining ’ his later his He would in on Peace Corps tour career. like to work in infectious epidemiology, which is the study and control of disease in a population. “There’s room for non-technical people such as myself to help cope with outbreaks of typhoid, smallpox, cholera, even polio,” says Arndt. “I’d like to work in those circumstances.” Monday, 22 September 1975 or further info call 831-4631 PROBLEM PREGNANCY?

What is known is that members always act as bodyguards to protect of the Brotherhood personal Manson from his black, redneck and homosexual enemies in San Quentin, and that there has been a great deal of correspondence between the male members of the Brotherhood in prison and Manson’s female family outside. Both Fromme and her roommate Sandra Good sent nude photographs of themselves to Brotherhood inmates, and Manson has assured sexual favors from all his girls for any Brother released from jail. This trading of favors has tightened the alliance between the family and the Brotherhood, and has assured Manson a large, close force to carry out whatever plans he may be making. His influence in crimes committed since his incarceration are now well documented. In November 1972, for instance, two girls from Manson’s family and two members of the Aryan Brotherhood were arrested for the murders of family renegades James and Lauren Willett. Another family member stole a case of marine grenades from Camp Pendleton, California, and tried to smuggle them to Manson in prison.

Griffin explained that the aides were often intimidated by uncooperative students. “It is true that our budget was cut,” he said, “But if the program was continued it would be upgraded, revamped and the aides would do more than just stand in the doors trying to perform an impossible task.” President David Brownstein said several alternatives to the student security aide program include issuing each building resident a key to the front door, as has been dqne at the Governor s Complex. In another, which has been tried in MacDonald Hall, students carry electronic cards which they insert into a computer unit that opens the door. Toft many doors Griffin feels, however, this is not feasible in Ellicott, which has a total of eighty-four doors on the first and second levels. Griffin said the obvious difficulty involved in keeping all these entrances guarded, keeping outsiders from entering any of them, and issuing keys for all of them, means the security needs of Ellicott for the present time will be dependant upon increased foot patrol by Campus Security officers. The Security Aide Program was first started by the Housing Office in 1970, in the midst ol More college women are choosing the lucrative and accessible career of engineering as students of both sexes turn away from the less promising humanities and social sciences, according to a survey conducted by the Stanlord University Academic Information Center the preliminary based on survey, The academic interests of this fall’s freshmen class, also showed that the boom fields of law and medicine were declining in popularity this year while natural Trees may stand in country's courts - frees may follow women and as the next group to be given protection the law if the theory of a California law minorities under when college officials I omul in their dorm room marijuana - sciences, math and technology were attracting more interest. (CPS) Too many cooks Nevertheless, Housing insisted on selecting and hiring the students, even though Security was giving them immediate them and paying instructions, he said. At this stage, Griffin explained, the program became “confused” because there were two offices running it. Soon the security system became the cause of most of the problems encountered by the student aides, Griffin indicated. A group of students would enter the dorm, “usually intoxicated.” and one of them would refuse to show his I.D. card. He added that the aide on duty would call Security, and an officer would arrive. “Now this would place the student in a position where he can't back down in tront of his friends, so he refuses to show his I D. to the officer.” Griffin said. The officer then would try to make an arrest for refusing a reasonable request, and a “melee" would break out. After all this, the worst penally the student can face is a recommendation tor suspension from the'dorms by the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) Judiciary, maintained Giillm. d Engineering lures women (CPS) demonstrations and strikes when Security officers often refused to enter either Norton Hall or the dormitaries because weapons were allegedly stored there by student rebels, Griffin said. As a result, he said, the security aide program was started, and students were hired by the Housing Office to sit by the dormitory entrances to check the I.D.’s of those entering. A few years later, the campus security program was upgraded and renovated, and the dorm aide program was “dumped” on Campus Security, Griffin noted. Christopher Stone has suggested that natural objects, such as trees, he given legal standing in courts. Attorneys could be appointed by the court to defend the interests of the environment, much as attorneys would be appointed to defend a child. Any money awarded in damages would go to the benefit of the environment. Foi instance, if a polluter were ordered to pay SI0,000 in damages to a tree or stream, the money would go into a trust fund tended by a legal guardian. The money could be used to reforest a cleared area or restock a stream with fish. Stone’s theory is gaining ground in legal circles. The attorney general of New Jersey used the argument in a suit involving fish kills, and California’s attorney general plans to use the same case to win compensation for birds and fish injured and killed in the 1969 Santa Barbara oil spill.

Formed in April, 1971, the lobby engages mainly legislators about important educational “lobbying in issues” and “getting students involved in the political process in communities,” according to NSL Board Member Frank Jackalone. NSL’s strategy is to focus on key legislative districts where the margin of victory is less than the total number of students in the district. “If students are urged to vote and become active,” Jackalone explain ted, “it will start to make waves, even if it only happens in one or two districts.” “Students have power through the vote,” Jackalone stressed. “If every student voted, they would be the largest voting block in the country.” Target 76 t> Presently, NSL is conducting “Target ‘76 a and drive for voter registration, education participation in the 1976 election.

How did it all begin? Coler Williams were sent to and Jumping Bull to serve warrants on three Indians for the alleged kidnapping of two young whites: Jerry Schwarting and Robert Dunsmore.

An FBI spokesman said Coler’s coat had been found on the body of the scene. The FBI exchanged gunfire for several hours with some 16 Indians in the area, killing one. As sporadic firing continued and government agents waited for word on whether to storm the Jumping the Indians compound, Bull disappeared into the reservation’s 2.8 million acres of rolling, grassy hills. As night fell, the FBI flew in its heavy weapons, search craft and about 100 agents from around the country.

Wilson’s people and AIM are trying to make peace, but that does not seem likely.

There is a weird personal feeling about this for me. 1 spent time in the Mission in August, hung around with the folks who run The news tonight the newspaper world to the refugees For the over 100,000 Vietnamese and Cambodian refugees who have resettled throughout the United States, the "end" of the war in Indochina only marks the beginning of a long, lonely process to assimilate into an alien Western culture. Already the victims of hostility from unreceptive Americans, left homeless and familyless by one of the most horrible wars in history, many of these refugees can barely speak the English language but will either have to enter the already overcrowded American job market or remain dependant on the unpredictable generosity of the U.S. government. As has been proven in the past, when waves of Oriental immigrants migrated to this country, they are treated as second-class citizens and scorned by the American workers for their potential to become "cheap labor." The U.S. government has reportedly set aside $505 million for the evacuation of refugees from Indochina and their resettlement here, of which approximately $87 million is available for disbursement by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare in education and support assistance programs. Yet when various linguistic institutes requested the government to administer tests for English comprehen sion and to provide instruction in the language, officials claimed that money was unavailable. Many of the refugees cannot afford the price of collegiate intensive English programs and the small number of private organizations that have taken the initiative to institute such programs have been plagued by inadequate facilities, overcrowded classrooms, and, of course, shortages of funds. There is something dreadfully wrong with a government that has no compunctuion about sinking billions of dollars into a war it has no business entering, and then, when it has finished ravaging the country and senselessly killing millions of innocent people, cannot provide adequate compensation or aid to the abandoned survivors. There is also something dreadfully wrong when the same people who hid behind guises of patriotism and democracy to justify America's involvement in the Vietnam war now turn their backs on the ones they were supposedly "defending." Within the next six weeks, over 200 South Vietnamese refugees are expected to have settled in the Buffalo area.

It alters the quality of the experience somehow. Instead of letting myself stay with the foreground, there is a struggle to remember the background . . . what else drifted by on the edge of-my vision that I failed to notice? This is clearly paranoid in a variety of ways, but what the hell. One of the ways that I am happier is being in control, being aware of my environment sufficiently to anticipate what unpleasantness might occur early enough to avoid the worst of it. The fact that a brisk firefight might break out on a San Francisco street between the FBI and the SLA never occurred to me. Which may be a statement of my political naivety, but also has to do with the ways that fear creeps into peoples’ lives. This same evening there were reports of a moderate scale civil war in the streets of Beirut, with opposing groups of militiamen stopping cars and making “arrests.” The scale of the fighting probably matters little to the dead Lebanese. As little as it may matter to the number of Irish who have died in the terrorism there. The thing which will probably do much to unseat the current Cuban military Junta is the terror that they have unleased in order to keep themselves in power. And this is perhaps the thing that it is so easy to forget when you are dedicated enough to risk your own life, that other people, many, many other people, live lives of “quiet desperation” from which they only want protection. Most of us are a fair ways away from places where power functions. We do not have congressmen or senators to intercede with the Federalists on, our behalf, or the ear of the governor, or the mayor. We function in a system which is hopefully benign, but which 1 think appears to most of us to be out of control. And I firmly believe that almost all of us want more control, not less in our lives. Some folks, indeed, would like to give it all to the state, or at least someone else who can do a better job than they feel that they can. But even the rest of us probably want more control for ourselves. How does it feel to live in a time and place where the price of oil, and thereby the price of gasoline, is a political- football on the one hand.

(Did you notice that all the supermarkets in British Columbia were closed, maybe still are?) In a world like this, the use of terror as a specific weapon can only raise my personal anxiety level. And I don’t see my response as being singular. 1 might conceptualize it more noisily, but when you increase peoples’ insecurity, they must want less change, not more. Now if I could just figure out a revolution was based on increased rather than decreased security, my historical reputation would be assured. Please do not try explaining to me that this revolution or that would eventually increase or decrease somebody’s security. Clearly the Cuban Government now offers -more security in many ways than its predecessor did, that is why it is stable. The problem of making changes in this country is how do you do it while convincing George Meany lhat it will offer him more security than it does now? Because either you convince him, or you have to convince everybody else under that him. There is a novel called Harlequin floating about the best seller lists which is about power, and corruption of it. In some senses it is a paranoid’s delight, in that it involves many shadowy things that could all be true, such as what do people really do with all the data they have in computers these days, and who really shoots people when they get shot in the street? What I think makes the book most intriguing is the picture of powerful figures having to struggle to survive like the rest of us, not being able to buy security in the almost automatic way that I think many of us associate wealth having. Which is romantic, since wealth is a buffer most of us do not, and will not have, but it clearly buys a number of pleasant things at the upper levels. As with this novel, and Patty Hearst, it can also make you a target. Whether that is worth it or not, depends on your head. I wonder what Samuel Bronfman, the Seagrams’ heir who was kidnapped, would say? And just how are you going to feel if there isn’t enough natural gas or oil to keep you warm this winter? How much in control? Reality is not the most pleasant thing in the world to live with, which may be why so many of us seem to prefer to avoid dealing with it as much as possible.

The comparative involvement of the CIA and ITT was minimal. Several months ago, an American syndicated columnist reported the results of a poll conducted confidentially among the Chilean people by the Uruguayan branch of Gallup Poll. The people were asked to compare their living conditions under the current military regime to those which existed under Allende. before the coup. Result: the people especially workers responded overwhelmingly in favor of the military regime. Of course, the military has implemented oppressive, often brutal policies; there is great room for improvement; and an international outcry against them would appear justified and honorable.

After careful thought on what she wrote, I came to the conclusion that her place as a student in this college is to get an education to the best of her ability.

She most certainly has the right to her views, but I don’t think she has the right to gather people Strike for qualify education To the Editor. 1 would like to respond to The Spectrum editorial of Friday, September 19, entitled “Education vs. Green.” In this article, the striking teachers of the U.F.T. are accused of taking away from N.Y.C. students “a valuable part of the quality education they deserve.” The editor is drawing a picture of these teachers as striking out of personal greed and disregard for their pupils. On the contrary, this strike was called to protest drastic and overly proportioned budget cuts in the already sinking N.Y.C. education system. What one must realize is that there is a direct correlation between education If she feels that this fashion of partying is detrimental to human life, l" strongly urge that she doesn’t partake in such activities. If she doesn’t like the kind of life college students like here at Buffalo, 1 am sure Brockport would welcome her back with open arms.

Teachers were protesting conditions worsened by the budget cuts that in the end hurt the student: overcrowded and consequently more impersonalizpd classrooms, lack of supplies, of cuts in services such as hot lunches, etc. Furthermore, this was the first U.F.T. strike largely supported by parents.

Arrested along with Hearst were SLA members William and Emily Harris, and fugitive Berkeley artist Wendy Yoshimura. Nineteen months before, on February 4. 1974. Hearst was dragged, half naked, and screaming from her apartment. Two months later sh£ announced she had joined her captors, asking her father to comply with SLA demands of $2 million worth of food for poor people in the San Francisco area. Hearst allegedly participated in a San Francisco 1974, lank robbery by SLA members on April 14, after which the FBI declared her a fugitive who was “armed and extremely dangerous." Tania goes to Hong Kong Two months later in June, with television cameras recording the incident, six members of the SLA died in a west Los Angeles gun battle with i Gen I l ; Ci»iurv> »»rp * Copr ACROSS police who had found their hideout. Hearst and two other members escaped, reportedly because they had gone out to buy clothing. During the last year, there was no contact with Hearst, or any of her allies, although the FBI tried to link her to sports activists Jack and Micki Scott, formerly of Oberlin College. There were reports that she had been seen in New York City, Pennsylvania, Reno, Nevada and Hong Kong. She was arrested less than ten miles from the apartment in Berkeley from which she had originally been abducted in 1974. Charles Bales, FBI agent in charge of the case, reported that Hearst had offered no resistance upon her arrest. “1 feel a great deal of personal satisfaction for tying up this case or any other case." Bates said. “That's what the FBI is for." Hearst was arraigned on federal charges ot bank robbery and illegal use of a firearm in the commission of a felony. She also must answer more than two dozen state charges, including assault with intent to kill, and kidnapping. Bail has been set at over SI million, which her attorney.

The article, written by two staff reporters, claims that the evidence was found buried deep in the DEA's own files by a task force under 1 DEA, Edward Levi. The Attorney-General established by an executive order of former President Nixon in July 1973 leads and coordinates drug activities of the federal government, and is considered part of the Justice Department. According to the Daily News, the task force uncovered more than 30 acts . of “criminal misconduct" by officials and agents of the DEA, and the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs, its predecessor. The story quoted one Justice Department official who claimed to have read the task force’s report as saying that most of the felonies look place between the establishment of the DEA in 1973. and the forced resignation of its director.

FDEA is linked to murder . •wl j'V contact than do the Bar incident A case still being investigated deals with that a Dl A official either personally killed or ordered the killing of a drug informant who double-crossed him. Another murder allegation allegations concerns “a DEA informant in New York state” who was found shot to death. In the latter case, the informant left a bar used as a DEA base-of-operations with a state trooper known to have organized crime connections. Within an hour after leaving the bar, the informant was found shot to death, the Chicago paper said. The task force report also included a story of a special agent who allegedly accepted bribes and payoffs from organized crime sources. Rather than being fired, he was reassigned to the DEA’s Baltimore office at the request of “a White House aide,” according to the article. Another questionable incident cited in the report concerned a DEA attempt to blackmail a Parliament member in an allegedly “friendly” country by planting heroin on him, according to the story. The attempt failed, but the agent succeeded in placing the drug in the politician’s apartment, according to the report. In still another incident, three drug agents allegedly robbed a -merchant seaman of $16,000. One of the three, the report said, has since risen to “a very sensitive position of authority.” The Daily News story concludes: “There were also confirmed reports that informants were paid off with heroin and other drugs seized by DEA agents in earlier raids.” / RLL STUDENTS The doors to the closed University are finally beginning to open.

The Spectrum . Page eleven �Title IX... —continued fromp age 5— regulation from becoming law, expecially those relating to intercollegiate athletics and physical education classes. HEW’s guidelines require secondary and post-secondary schools receiving any federal funds to offer equal opportunity for women to participate in inter-collegiate sports, either by organizing separate teams or by allowing women to compete for places on the men’s teams. Within the three-year grace period, the 2,700 colleges and universities affected by Title IX must integrate all physical education classes except for those in contact sports. Several attacks on HEW’s enforcement policies took place prior to the July 21 deadline but were beaten back by the lobbying efforts of several women’s groups. Congressional observers called the women’s lobbying a classic “saturation” effort, but it took three House votes to defeat the “Casey amendment”] which would have barred HEW from requiring an end to sex segregation in physical education classes and university-based honorary or professional fraternities and sororities. Although Congress, can no longer disapprove of the HEW regulations, it can still amend the original Title IX legislation. Rep. James G. O’Hara (D-MI) introduced a bill early this summer to limit Title IX’x jurisdiction over revenue-producing intercollegiate sports and physical education classes because, he said, his constituents were worried about boys and girls sharing locker rooms. O’Hara’s bill was sent back to committee before the July 21 deadline passed and Is subject to Congressional -review. Women's battle Women’s groups are also facing a Title IX fight in the Senate. Hearings started this week on Sen. John Tower’s (R-TX) sports bill which would protect revenues earned by intercollegiate sports or teams from Title IX’x ban on sex discrimination. But the fiercest battle to keep the Title IX regulations strong and effective is now raging between women’s groups and HEW. At the same time HEW sent the final regulations to Congress, it published a new “procedural regulation” in which it proposed to investigating individual complaints entirely and instead stop concentrate its efforts on pursuing what it calls broad-based “pattern and practice” discrimination Women’s groups and some 53 senators who passed a resolution asking HEW to reconsider this proposal believe this would leave no recourse for women or minorities with discrimination complaints except a legal battle in the courts, which many could not afford. Although HEW’s guidelines require schools to set up internal grievance committees, women won’t have much faith in a procedure “entirely the creature of the institution that being charged," according to Holly Knox, director of the Project on Equal Education Rights. Knox said most women think the law itself provides almost everything women need to protect their rights in education but tha* HEW has done a “lousy” job investigating cases. “HEW doesn’t warn to cut off funds so schools think they can drag their feet and delay It’s time HEW started getting serious about enforcing their laws Knox said.

Monday, 22 September 1975 Soccer Bulls top Buff State 2-1 in strong defensive show by Larry Leva Spectrum Staff Writer It was luck more than anything else that sent Emmanuel Kulu’s shot into the Buffalo State goal to give the soccer Bulls a 2-1 victory against the Buffalo State Bengals. Kulu, whom Bulls’ coach Sal Esposito calls the most talented soccer player Buffalo has ever had, was actually attempting to pass the ball to a teammate, when it caromed off the head of a Bengal defenseman into the upper right' hand corner, beating a surprised Rich Drozdiwski, the Buffalo State goalie. The Bulls Doug Leininger opened the scoring by knocking in a rebound off a shot by hard-working forward Brian Van Hatten at 8:23 of the first half. Following the goal, Buffalo continued to control the action and kept applying the pressure, only to be denied several times on great saved by Drozdiwski. The Bengals finally showed some life by knotting the score at one all on Don Oberman’s unassisted goal from about 30 yards out late in the first half. The tie was short-lived as Kulu’s goal came only 59 seconds later. Defense comes through Buffalo State came out fired up at the start of the second half, but despite dominating the early going, they failed to produce any goals. Then, the Bulls’ defense stiffened and the rest of the half was played at midfield. “I’m happy with the win, but not the performance,’’ remarked Esposito.

SPANIS. chocho gargarizando sacamuelas bulla ENGLISH childish old man gargling quack dentist soft coal manteca lard pantufla bedroom slip] Here at Jose Cuervo, we believ an informed consumer is an informed consumer. Last Friday, amidst thr'stacldl of other campus papers which were piled high against the back wall of Norton Hall, an new publication was unveiled. It was Bullpen the new mouthpiece for intercollegiate athletics at Buffalo. Bullpen is the brainchild of its Editor-in-Chief, Dave Hnath who speht his first three years at Buffalo writing sports for The Spectnanm. After becoming disenchanted with The Spectrum, he enlised the help of Students for the Future of Athletics (SFA) and Student Athletic Review Board (SARB) and came up with a four page opening issue. Sound-ff As an “on-campus sports publicity,’’ Bullpen is expected to be a sounding board for arguments and proposals supporting athletics. Aside from reporting news of sports, it hopes to become a “communications pipeline” between the University and the Athletic Department. Bullpen now joins SFA as another organized attempt to rally more support for intercollegiate athletics at Buffalo. The first issue of Bullpen contained articles about each of Buffallo’s five men’s fall varsity teams, along with an introductory piece, and an overview of the new Big Four intercollegiate which includes Buffalo, Buffalo, State, Canisius, and Niagara. There was also an Athlete of the Year award for soccer/wrestler Jim Yound and women’s basketballet Chris Barone. Dennis Delia, SARB chairman, contributed the first in what appears to be a series of commentaries about athletics at Buffalo. This particular column stressed the need for more and louder support for intercollegiate sports. Also in the first issue were statistical reports and fall sports schedules plus a “Name-the-bubble (Ketterpillar)” contest. No comment which is funded through the Bullpen, on-campus publicity line of the Athletic Department budget, appeared to be fairly well received by the University. Hnath was out of town and therefore unavailable for comment, and Delia cited “personal reasons” for not issuing a statement. However, wrestling coach Ed Michael did have something to say, observing “It’s a fine something that’s long overdue.” Sports Information Director Dick Baldwin was also pleased with the first Bullpen. “Instead of one newspaper, now we’ve got two which could be healthy,” he noted. The staff of Bullpen is believed to be rather thin at this time. Hnath made requests for help with photography, layout, and advertising in his introductory article, and it is believed that he wrote most of the stories with the exception of Delia’s column. Women’s tennis team downs Houghton 7-0 in easy victory by Joy Clark Spectrum Staff Writer After being soundly defeated by the University of Rochester 6-1. the women’s tennis team came back to shutout Houghton College. 7-0, Thursday at the Ketterpillar. “We were really surprised at the strength of the Rochester team." commented Bulls' coach Betty Dimmick after the 6—1 loss on Wednesday. Rochester lost three of last year's top singles players, with sophomore Helen Katz the only returnee. All the other singles players are freshman. The one bright spot for Buttalo was freshman Nancy Reiner, the third singles player. Reiner gave Buffalo its only win at Rochester. “Her secret is consistency," declared Dimmick, “and she can keep the ball on the court.” Because of the lack of courts in the Ketterpillar, Thursday’s game was a single set match, with the first player to score ten games winning the match. Buffalo won all seven matches easily against a very poor Houghton team. Top singles player Diane Defalco defeated Maxine Kaltenbaugh handily after a disappointing loss to Katz the day before. Dimmick made a few line-up changes for the Houghton match. Nancy Munroe was switched from doubles to singles, and freshman Katie Surgalla replaced Mary Galligan in the second doubles team. Dimmick plans to carry more players on the squad this year, to compensate for player absences and to give younger players some experience. The second doubles team will serve as training ground for the new players. There are only two returnees from last year’s squad. Defalco and Jane Van Dyke, but Dimmick is optimistic about the team’s chances. “We’re playing well together as a team.” she said, “and we’re starting to mold together, to gain the unity as a team we need to be successful.” The Bulls’ next match is against the tough Cortland team tomorrow at Cortland.

The number of students subscribing to student health insurance benefits has dropped dramatically since the fall, 1970 semester and the insurance company, Niagara National, has suffered losses or, at best, small profits. Campagna feels that the program, as it stands now, is no longer feasible because of the small number of participating students. The “compulsory with waiver” approach has been endorsed by the Council of Presidents, the Sub Board Board of Directors, the University Council and the SUNY Administration. \ the presidents of the Student Association (SA), Graduate Student Association (GSA), Millard Fillmore College SA, Student Bar Association, Dental Student Association, and the Medical School Polity. No health fee The advantages of the compulsory with waiver” fee are not limited to stabilized premiums and increased benefits, according to Campagna. The increased number of insured students would help Student Health Services establish itself sufficiently to serve the students without imposition of a health fee, he said. This fee has been suggested by a member of SUMY Central Administration. To insure students who do volunteer (if the compulsory approach is not adopted), present rates would have to be increased, or benefits reduced, or a combination of both, Campagna said. This would likely result in a reduction in the number of students enrolled and would lesserr the quality of i.A T Pneumonia Alley’ Norton Hall workers threaten job action by Charles Greenberg Spectrum Staff Writer Civil Service Employee’s Association (CSEA) workers in Norton measures this winter unless steps are taken to provide adequate heating facilities for the first floor of the student Hall threaten job action union The first floor of Norton has been nicknamed “Pneumonia Alley” by some employees. Winter temperatures as low as 40 degrees have been measured there, according to one employee, who does not want his name revealed. The cold temperatures and wind gusts in Norton have been a for the past ten years, according to Robert Henderson, Associate Director of Norton Hall. problem Henderson explained that the building was not designed to accommodate the heavy traffic flow which it now must bear. The air flow increases hourly during the winter with the release of classes and subsequent crowd swelling in the union, he said. Baffles Several plans have been proposed over the years to correct this situation. In 1973, for instance, the construction of porches by the fountain entrance and new heating facilities were proposed, but the plan was overruled by the administration due to the high costs involved. SA and Sub Board move for say in Amherst development by Steven Milligram Spectrum Staff Writer Although no definite plans have been made for student participation in the commercial development of. the Amherst Campus, Sub Board and the Student Association (SA) have begun approaching the UB Foundation with ideas for such involvement. The UB Foundation, incorporated to promote private support of the University, has been charged with overseeing the commercial construction in Amherst primarily because it is the only financial branch of the University which has the resources to raise the initial, credit necessary. The plans presently include a hotel, market, dry cleaners, savings bank, barber shop and other related services, according to UB Foundation President Jack Latona. Dpug Cohen, Student Association (SA) Ditector of Student Activities feels, “the commercial development is to serve students it will bring needed predominantly in two ways products and services to campus, and it will hopefully bring lower prices.” - Another plan called for the construction of revolving doors at the building’s main entrances, but critics charged that the day-to-day traffic through the building would deem this plan impractical. Cohen emphasized the need for student involvement in the plans, possibly in the form of management trainees, workers and as a regulating body. “Also of prime importance will be the placing of a student as a full member of the Board of Directors of this facility,” Cohen added. Nothing definite Bruce Campbell, SA Vice President for Sub Board concurs with Cohen. “It is vital for us to get student participation in all levels of this project,” he said. Campbell added that no definite commitments have been made at this time. A spokesperson for Sub Board stated that nothing tangible has been arranged to date. ‘The only thing that is definite is that the development will exist and that there will be private businesses in it. He feels Sub Board is capable of running businesses on the new campus, and that these Sub Board operations can serve the students better than private management. “Any profit that would possibly be taken in Sub Board-run operations would not be taken by off the campus and directed elsewhere. Also, we —continued on page 2 Henderson tnd other Norton officials are hoping that temporary wooden “baffles” will be constructed by the entrances to solve the problem, but Ray Reinig, Facilities Program Coordinator for Physical Planning, maintains that “temporary enclosures will not help, only more heat will help.” One pending proposal would install overhead gas heaters on the first floor. Frank Kellner & Sons, a local contractor, estimated last year that the unit installation would cost about S4600. $5000 had to be cancelled this year due to budget cuts, Reinig said. building’s Lulus A new request for the expenditure was submitted to Albany in the Supplemental Budget Requests, and Reinig expects to have word soon. CSEA workers have voiced bitter concern over the lack of action, and plan to make the Norton Hall problem a major topic at the next labor-management meeting. Two employees, both CSEA members, warn that “this time we mean business.” In December, 1974, the Norton Hall employees met with the University administration to present their grievances. At that time, they were promised “immediate action,” the two employees claim, but since then nothing has been done. William Strobel, Assistant Vice President for CSEA employees, summed up the workers’ sentiments;-“If we had two of those lulus from our local legislators, we could take care of this thing.” “Lulus” are the New York State Legislature’s most recent attempt to vote themselves pay raises during the last session. “The union is supposed to be a place where people want to come, not a place where people are driven away,” Henderson said. If things don’t improve soon, the building employees may be driven away. �Health insurance —continued from page t—- ’{•< ... the risk pool, for all insured students.

Threatened bomb causes evacuation Norton Hall was evacuated Wednesday at about 4:45 p.m. after a bomb threat was called in to the Buffalo Police Department emergency phone number, 911. Campus Security and Buffalo Police officers investigated the building but no bomb was found. The phone threat was traced to the Albany area. No further information was available at press time Lee Griffin, Assistant Director of Campus Security, indicated that the decision to take the threat seriously was made on the basis of what the caller said and how he said it. “There are several different ways that a person making this kind of call speaks and the words they use tip us off to the validity of the call,” Griffin explained. Although the caller’s actual words were not known, the person apparently warned that there was a bomb in Norton Hall scheduled to go off at 5:05 pjn. The budding was closed until shortly after 6 p.m. as a precaution. • Criminal justice The Citizens Commission on Criminal Justice (CCSJ) for Buffalo and Erie County is asking University students and staff to make nominations for an award for “outstanding performance in the field of criminal justice” to be presented to an Erie County resident at the CCCJ’s first annual awards dinner October 7 in the Hotel Statler Hilton.

According to Latona, “There are or will be no legal or philosophical reasons preventing Sub Board from becoming involved in the project.” However, he added, those businesses who have already contacted the UB Foundation will be the first to be taken under consideration for'space.

The demonstrators weren’t at fault because they perceived the occupation of Hayes as a peaceful protest, and didn’t “understand the subtle distinctions between the protected expression of a peaceful picket line and the proscribed activity of blocking the free passage of others;” 2. President Ketter’s actions in the incident were legal and correct; 3. The procedure for clearing the building was “appropriately non-violent” and had a “high probability of successfully clearing the building without major incident;” 4. The decision by Security to open the door to 108 Hayes (which leads to Ketter’s offices and those of several other administrators) “created an inflammatory situation” which “could have been much more violent but for the restraint exercised by both Security officers and demonstrators;” 5. “For the most part, the Campus Security force performed the difficult and unsavory task to which they were assigned with restraint and due regard for the rights of others.” astringent wine.

In only a few cases was any identification checked, as required by the rules. One of the more hotly debated aspects of the events of April 25 concern the breaking of the glass in the door to the Presidential suite. Originally, students caimed Security broke it with their nightsticks. Security claimed students broke it.

The committee students had ° “ °f The report of the Faculty Senate three-member committee of inqui:y into the April 25 disturbance at Hayes Hall like many reports, is more notable for the questions it doesn’t answer than for the ones it does. Last week, the Faculty Senate heard the conclusions drawn by Law Professor William Greiner, Professor of Counselor Education Robert Rossberg, and Psychology Professor Dean Pruitt, into the events which culminated in students blockading the door to the President’s office in Hayes. The group was protesting the administration’s refusal to allow student mandatory fee monies to be allocated for buses to Albany in support of amnesty for the Attica defendants. The approximately 70 demonstrators were forcibly ejected from the building by Campus Security. However, the Faculty Senate “Greiner Repprt” hesitated to shift the blame to either sjde, preferring instead to characterize the incident as a series of misunderstandings. a sensitive situation; and called for both Security officers and students to be clgarly informed of the goals of Campus Seurity actions. In addition, the committee produced a thirteen-page long summary of the April 25 events as they were able to sort Recommendations Like most committees, recommendations. It called for for future demonstrations; a this one made contingency plans clarification and specification of the rules regarding demonstrations; examination of the double indemnity of prosecuting students on both civil and academic charges for the same offense; and the use of faculty members as mediators in future incidents to soften conflict between students and Security. for addition, the committee asked In clarification of what constitutes proof of University affiliation; said Security officers should always be instructed to use the least violent means possible in taped Revealing photos The question of who broke the glass was well contested, until photographs were printed in Ethos nightsticks being poked through the window.

Watkins tall by Cynthia Crossen Special to The Spectrum (CSP) off-campus - Although rents have rising filled dormitories across the country to capacity this fall, students at some colleges are still battling dorm mandatory which require them regulations to live on campus. Students at several universities taken the issue to court that mandatory dorm laws represent a violation of their civil rights but the court decisions have been inconsistent. The schools with have charging mandatory dorm laws has over the past five years, but a survey by the Association of College and Univerity Housing Officers this year found that more than 50 percent of the public institutions and 76 perceitt of the private institutions surveyed still require some students to live on-campus. Last June a U.S. District Court judge told five Eastern Illinois University (EIU) students who had filed a class action suit that the mandatory dorm regulations were “implemented to achieve a legitimate goal of higher education” and therefore did not violate their civil rights. decreased But according the EIU student Smith, the requirement that all EIU freshmen and sophmores under the age of 21 Barry must live on campus has resulted in overcrowded dorms where some students are forced to live in the lounges. Overcrowding Overcrowded dorms are also a big headache for students at the of MassaUniversity chusetts-Amherst (U Mass) where university officials require freshmen, sophomores and juniors to live on campus. Four U Mass students filed a class action suit against the university last winter but the suit is still pending. An attorney for the students contended that the dorm regulations were a violation all of the equal protection clause of the Constitution because they exempt married students, seniors and students over 21 S'ears from the rule. Meanwhile 1200 to 1500 U Mass students are living three to a double room. U Mass officials admitted that the reason for the residency requirement was the necessity to bondholders who have financed the construction of the dorms and dining commons. This was also the conclusion of a trial court in South Dakota last year pay the which ruled against mandatory dorm laws at the University of South Dakota. The court found that the primary purpose of the dormitory rule was to insure sufficient income to pay off the residence hall debt, not to provide an "educationally enriching experience” for students as the adminstration had claimed. But early this year, an appeals court overturned the South Dakota trial court’s decision, concluding that dormitory living “broadens and enriches the life of the individual student. We cannot agree that the right to choose one’s place of residence is necessarily a fundamental right,” the court ruled. The upsurge of popularity in dorm living this year has helped the case against mandatory dorm laws on some campuses. At the University of Alabama, requests for on-campus housing were expected to outnumber vacant rooms by some 30 percent this fall. As a result, university administrators suspended the mandatory freshman housing rule. And at the State University of New York at Stony Brook where six students had filed suit last spring against mandoatry dorm regulations, the adminsitration voluntarily dropped the dorm law this year before the case reached court. The rule at Stony Brook required freshmen and first-year transfer students who were under 21 and unmarried to live on campus if adequate housing existed. In past years, this has forced double rooms to become This the year, triples. adminstration admitted that the housing on the Stony Brook campus was not sufficient and allowed freshmen and transfer students to scramble for off-campus housing. Students may someday wish good old days of for the mandatory dorm laws as on-campus living becomes more economical and less restrictive.

Well, if you’re Francesca “Kitten” Natividad, and your vital statistics are 38-22-35, you become Miss Nude Universe. That’s exactly what she did, and that’s what brought her to the State University at Buffalo last Tuesday afternoon, where she was interviewed on WBFO-FM (88.7) by Pat Bufano. Miss Nude Universe is in Buffalo this week for an engagement at the Fine Arts Theater, 663 Main Street, the latest stop for her and her giant bubble bath. The “Kitten” said she saw an ad for the Miss Nude Universe Contest in the Los Angeles Free Press about three years ago, and enlisted a photographer friend, Johnny Costano, to be her sponsor. . „ , ,, , “I don’t smoke or drink, and 1 try to stay very healthy,” she said proudly. “1 don’t have any toxins in my body.” As one would expect in this age of women’s liberation, Miss Nude Universe receives a lot of criticism from feminists, but she refutes their claims that she is being exploited: “I’m very liberated; I do my own thing. 1 'ike men to see my body, and 1 like to turn them on!” ‘Liberated woman’ “I’m doing what I want to do, and that’s what liberation is all about, isn’t it?” Besides, she asks, “At $5.00 a-ticket, tell me who’s being exploited.” Politically, Miss Nude Universe admitted that, although she has always been a Democrat, she’s now becoming a Republican-Conservative because of one man: former California Governor Ronald Reagan. “I’ve done a couple of bikini walks for him, and ‘Make people happy’ After doing a short stretch as a nude go-go dancer, she entered and won the Miss Nude Universe competition staged by promoter Sparky Blaine. First prize was a $1,000 cash award, plus $20,000 worth of performing contracts. "I just wanted to use the title to make a lot of money, and to make people happy,” she explained Tuesday A suit brought by the sponsors of the original Miss Universe contest has made “Kitten" possibly the last Miss Nude Universe, as the title will probably be changed to Miss Nude U.S.A. When asked if she had ever considered entering Miss America Pageant, the Mexican native replied the that, at five feel, two inches tall, she was too short. “There wasn't a talent requirement for Miss Nude Universe, other than a nice walk and a nice body, but we were questioned to lest our poise,” she added. Bikini walks big The beauty queen is evidently very well-poised, judging from her series of “hikini walks,” including one down Buffalo's Main Street on Wednesday. “I love to walk down the street and wave and say hello to all the people who come to watch, and they like to pose for pictures with me,” she related. Her “bikini walks” go on “rain or shine or snow,” she said, and have been known to attract as many as several thousand fans, sometimes creating massive traffic jams. “Do you know what they’ve arrested me for?” “Obstructing a highway!” asked. she Francesca has a number of activities to which she devotes her time. Her favorite among them is entertaining the elderly, both men and women. Entertainmentfor the elderly “1 like to charter a bus and bring a bunch of the older people down to the theater, wherever I am, for an early show about 6 p.m.,” she said. "Nobody seems to care about the older people anymore, but I get some of the other girls to help and we all have a good time.” “One lime an 82-year-old woman came up to me after the show and pointed to my boobs and said,‘Are those real?’” Francesca doesn’t work in the winter, and she spends her time in Los Angeles enjoying her hobbies, which include tennis and cooking, espeically French cooking In contrast to the image of the burlesk performer as a bawdy, loose-living type, “Kitten” is a vegetarian PRE-LAW & PRE-MED STUDENTS Oool<le,s of al1 medical or an containing average, schools minimum & recommended CPA, nd law 5® ,or lsat & mcat scores for 1976-77 $2.00 Send to admittance.

My family isn’t very keen on the idea. though!” “Kitten” was very cheery as she talked about her most devoted fans: “Most of the letters I get are from guys who are in prison, and ask me tor pictures. I send them out, and I send some candy occasionally to guys with whom I’ve been corresponding for a long time.” Probably her most dedicated follower is an inmate in the Atlanta Penitentiary, who crochets bikinis and mails them to her. “Sometimes,” she said, “I use one of them in my act!” And, finally, what does the future hold for Miss Nude Universe? “I’d like to continue for about two more years,” she said. “Then I want to go back to Mexico and open a French restaurant.

Cray Spectrum Staff Writer The current busing controversy in Boston and the violent reactions the program is generating were discussed at length by author Jimmy Breslin 'in his appearance here last week. He addressed himself particularly to the reactions of the Irish residents. Breslin had just returned from Boston after doing a series of articles for the Boston Globe on the busing issue and its polarizing effect. Being Irish, Breslin feels he has a better grasp of their point of view than he does for the blacks. He offered no solution to the problem, and in fact, painted a rather bleak picture of future ethnic relations in Boston. Heavy security Recent newspa] ;r accounts indicate energy of the blacks and Irish is diverted from the real issues involved. It’s a classic example of what’s happening in all cities, he said. In Boston, you have the working class Irish with their close community tradition, trying to keep what they do have, fighting the blacks from Roxbury who have even less, if anything at all. Upper class oblivion So it’s a case of the poor fighting the poor, with the upper and middle classes largely unaffected by the issue. “Never are the poor blacks and whites going to get together and see that it’s only the rich who profit from these sort of struggles,” Breslin insisted. He added that it is the governments’ obligatipn to improve conditions for the black people in Boston. They are among the hardest hit victims of our society, they have the least, they deserve true by Brett Kline Feature Editor The busing of public school students to achieve racial integration in city school systems across the country has raised many questions as to the validity of busing programs and their social effect on the students and parents involved. The situation is not without historical background. In 1954, in a decision of great social and ideological significance, the Supreme Court ruled in the case of Brown vs. the Topeka Board of Education that the doctrine of separate but equal has no place in the field of education. “The segregation of children in public schools solely on the basis of race, even though the physical facilities and other tangible factors may be equal, deprives the children of the minority group of equal educational opportunities.” The most dramatic response to this decision has been court ordered busing that is, the relocation of students from - days of school. Buses were stoned and unorganized bands of youths roamed the streets, taunting police and throwing bottles at passersby. More troubles In Louisville, Kentucky, 22,600 students, about half of them black, are being transported for the first time between city and suburban areas. Violence, bomb scares and absenteeism, both in classrooms and industrial plants, marked the opening of school in the city and surrounding Jefferson County. Anti-busing forces urged boycotts by pupils and by unionized workers in nearby plants. Ford Motor Company closed two plants because of absenteeism. Most recently, Kentucky Governor Julian Caroll has filed suit in federal court to end school busin to achieve desegregation desegregation, claiming that the federal government must pay for the costs of the busing, estimated to be over $3.5 million. Busing programs on much more limited scales in other parts of the country have commenced without difficulty. Important social effects Lately, great stress has been placed on the social effects of busing, as opposed to Ihe academic results. James Coleman has done two widely cited reports, one in 1966 and another in 1975, on the impact of integration and forced" busing. He found that there are basically two important effects on which there is no conclusive research. One is the pupil’s feeling about himself, his self-esteem or sense of being in control of things that affect him in some way. The other has to do with interracial attitudes, white children’s feelings about blacks and vice versa. that the busing program in Boston appears to be improving. But attendance figures for the schools involved are varying as frequently as the wind shifts in Boston Harbor, making it difficult to determine what’s really happening. As Breslin pointed out, the buses are going through Bostons’ South End and Charlestown, two areas that are traditionally Irish, but only with the visible support of Massachusetts State Policemen standing seven yards apart along the entire route. Police helicopters are also circling Charlestown looking for snipers. Officials plan to maintain this security for one month. Irish psychology “The Irish can wait 300 years to fight,” Breslin said. One month of heavy security wouldn’t calm them down at all. he said He then discussed the Irish psychology, particularly their willingness to fight, their capacity to hold a grudge forever and their “stupidity.” He also pointed out that the Irish, as a rule, aren’t interested in fancy slogans or subtle manipulations. “They have great directness of language,” Breslin said. “They like to break things down to their basic components and attack the problem from that standpoint.” Racism Therefore, according to Breslin, the issue to the Irish isn’t even busing, but is as simple as a sign he saw on a building in Charlestown which said, “We Don’t Want No Niggers Here.” Breslin noted that the conflict just serves the interests of Boston’s rich residents and local politicians because the equality and it’s the governments’ mandated responsibility to see that they get it Jews and Irishmen In Boston, however, Irish pride and “stupidity” are likely to keep fueling the fire. Breslin recalled the proposed Forest Hills Housing Project in New York, which was designed to bring low-income minorities in to a more liveable environment than the ghettoes of New York City, and how the largely Jewish population of Forest Hills fought the proposal. The basic issue there was also racial, but according to Breslin, “The Jews came up with a complex series of environmental and other studies which they used as arguments to obscure the real issue and successfully [diminish] the project. But the Jews knew how to deal with the problem without ever suggesting open racism,” he added. Perfect Irish battle “But the Irish are openly racist about the whole thing. Right before 1 left Boston I talked to some of the Irish up in Charlestown. 1 told them, ‘Look, the Jews are much better at this sort of thing than you are. They think it out.’ But the Irish said, ‘Fuck thinking, let’s go out and fight’.” “Thinking is like some type of disease to most Irishmen. And the struggle in Boston is a perfect Irish fight .. . it’s hopeless,” Breslin surmised. The only immediate solution to the entire class struggle would be “scatter-site housing,” Breslin concluded. “But just thinking about that gives me a headache.” one public school to another to achieve a racial balance which corresponds to the racial balance of the city. Not new Yet busing is not new. In 1957, U.S. troops were sent to Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas to protect newly bUsed-in black students from jeering crowds led by the governor of the state an event that made headlines around the world. Today, Little Rock’s high schools are fully integrated and students and teachers alike agree that their educational experiences have been enriched greatly by this integration. The problems now faced by American cities involved in implementing busing programs are far greater than those of Little Rock in 1957. Detroit’s schools are now 75 percent black and 25 percent white. The issue there is whether all schools must be 75-25 or half the schools must be 50-50 and half of them all black. - Troubled Boston In Boston, about 26,000 students, almost 45 percent more than last year, have been bused as last year’s limited integration plan was extended to almost all parts of the city. City authorities ordered 1,550 uniformed police to special duty. National Guardsmen at the 82nd Airborne Division were placed on alert. Police concentrated South Boston High on three schools both heavily High, Park and Hyde involved in trouble a year ago, and Charlestown High on Bunker Hill, integrated for the first time. Residents of these predominantly Irish working class neighborhoods have been firmly opposed to busing and sporadic outbursts of violence have occurred there and in the predominantly black Roxbury section during the first — I i Research in Boston, for example, has found that both white and black interracial attitudes have worsened, especially among parents. White flight One reaction noted by Coleman has been the movement of whites from the city to the suburbs, as black enrollment in specific inner, city schools has increased. This “white flight,” or resegregation could occur more in the north than in the south, because there are more suburbs available for people to move to. In Montgomery, Alabama, for example, the surrounding areas have just as many blacks as the city itself, providing little or no exit for inner city whites. On the other hand, racial prejudice is more deeply ingrained in the south than in the north. One thing that is clear from southern reports is that as the proportion of blacks in school systems increases, more whites flee. Coleman stated that in Detroit, there could be an enormous loss of whites if the courts decide that every school must be 75 percent black. An alternative to individuals fleeing may be racial conflict, such as has happened in Boston. Grim consequences Over a number of years, the consequences of this social movement (whites leaving the cities en masse) could be grim. A black school system is established in the central city with black staff and administration, a white school system in the suburbs with white staff and administration, and established interests on both sides are not going to give up their students for integration. Present busing is seen as virtually the only means of achieving racial integration in the nation’s public schools. Yet educators and government officials are realizing that it is not a fail-safe system. Friday; 19 September 1975 . The Spectrum . Page five �Editorial Student Senate correction Qu'ils mangent du gateau! CSEA workers in Norton Hall are outraged by the intolerable working conditions there, and rightfully so. For ten years these faithful employees, not to mention students, have had to endure sub standard temperatures and draughts on the union's first floor. For ten years the University administration has repeatedly assured them that the problem will be rectified "immediately," and for ten years it has neglected to fulfill its promises. Despite several proposals over the years to heat the building, or to build enclosures around the entrances, nothing has been done. From their carpeted, cozy offices in Hayes Hall, University administrators blame the State Legislature for failing to allocate a mere $5000 to heat Norton, and while the buck passes along, people are suffering needlessly. It is difficult to believe that New York State can make a $650 million committment to build a new campus in Amherst, and at the same time refuse to spend $5000 to maintain the old one in Buffalo. It is even more absurd that President Robert Ketter, who in the past has shown no reluctance to act unilaterally on a variety of issues, remains powerless to fulfill his responsibilities to the employees of this University. In a matter of weeks Buffalo's notorious winter will descend, and Norton Hall will once again become "Pneumonia Alley." It is time for the administration to realize that we are not living in a Dickens novel, that it is 1975, and that blue collar wdrkers are human beings with a legal right to confortable working conditions.

I am Treasurer — Jomo’s trial To the Editor. On September 13, many people around New York participated in the commemoration of the 1971 Attica rebellion. This uprising for humane prison reforms was brutally suppressed under the orders of former Governor Rockefeller and left 43 men dead. Since the rebellion, the state has been trying to cover-up their wrongdoings by bringing the leaders and outstanding people of the uprising to trial on various charges from kidnap to murder. On June 26, the Buffalo jury deliberated for less than six hours before finding Attica defendant Shango (Bernard Stroble) innocent on all charges. Shango, Attica brother Jomo Sekon Omowale, and others were originally indicted as co-defendants in the alleged kidnapping and felony murder of inmates Ken Hess and Barry Schwartz, Jomo’s case is based on the testimony by the same witnesses. whose credibility was rejected by the jury in Shango’s trial. His trial is expected to taxpayers at least a quarter of a million dollars. In 1972 Jomo was indicted on 34 counts "A strike is a weapon you use against a boss that has money.

I am pleased and proud champion of sanity arise from the quagmire of “college partying.” Students, the intellectual elite of this country, have been stupefying themselves long enough. It is time to banish all stimulants from every corner of the earth and embark on a new era of tranquility and telekinesis with a constant murmur of Judy Collins in the background. I eagerly await the time when 1 am able to convene with a group of pals and hear something more sensitive than "the room is starting to melt” and other such foolish babblings. A time when sexuality will no longer be an emotional phenomena, when relaxation is more than relation, when everyone will know their names. 1 anxiously wait for the new epoch when every individual will unrelentingly strive to counsel each other to a higher consciousness, spending less time with post-imbibation foodstuffs and more with Rod McKuen and CB sets. It is these devices and the absence of all devices, devices as they do not exist, devices as they cannot exist, devices as devices, devices as non-devices and finally, devices as they have been handed down from the baboon to man and so on ad infinitum. Those which have propelled man into this new era of prosperity. to witness a For a group that purports to be educated professionals, the New York City teachers could not have picked a more ill-timed opportunity to walk off their jobs. In the midst of the city's worst financial throes, the over 55,000 members of the UFT boycotted the public schools for one whole week before finally reaching an agreement on the cost of settling the Wednesday. One thing is certain the dollars the city needs beyond extends far extra strike (which it doesn't have anyway) for mollifying its teachers; it has cost the city's schoolchildren a valuable part of the quality education they deserve. According to the September 17 New York Times, "The new agreement provides for 90 minutes of additional teaching time for a majority of the city's elementary-school and junior-high school teachers, and a 45-minute reduction in the school day of pupils twice each week. It also provides for a $300 cost-of-living salary adjustment for all teachers, and two longevity increments, but these are expected to be frozen because of city wage — controls." In the past, the Board of Education has failed enforce the no-stike penalties outlined in the Taylor Law that strikers be docked two days' pay for every day off the job. However, this time, the teachers will finally see that they are not a privileged class and the 30 million dollars in lost salaries will be used to reinstate the jobs of 2400 union members who were recently laid off. Throughout this unfortunate situation, and during the last two teacher strikes in 1967 and 1968, it has become clear that the idea of quality instruction is only of secondary importance to a group of people who should be its most ardent proponents. The LIFT has come to terms with the Board of Ed at the expense of 90 minutes of valuable class time per student per week. At a time when average scores on standardized exams continue to drop and college educators are becoming increasingly aware of deficiencies in learning at the elementary and secondary school levels, this sacrifice in classroom exposure may result in even poorer academic performance. While teachers continue to bicker with city officials over finances each year, it is ultimately the future of N.Y.C.'s schoolchildren which will be washed down the drain. The Spectrum to .

Christian Frazza Astrology—a legitimate science To the Editor. As a astrologer, third year engineering student and 1 can see both sides of your recent article about scientists versus astrology, and it sounds to me like a modern version of the old science-vs-the-Bible debate. The scientists who signed the statement denounced astrology because of its lack of scientific foundation, but after reading the Humanist, I doubt that they gained more than a superficial understanding of the contests and results of astrology. Moreover, they conveniently ignored its use by Jung, Kepler, Newton, Galileo, Copernicus and numerous other lesser-known scientists and physicians. Granted, there are many areas of astrology that do it more harm than good (the newspapers’ pop astrology, for one), but to condemn what many people . consider a serious study because of its premise is to. show a bias and a prejudice that is unlike the scientific mind. The issue at stake here is faith, because every study has its initial conditions that can neither be proved nor disproved, but must be accepted, and science is no exception. Science, then, has no more right to attack another study than it has to assume omniscience. Astrology is slowly evolving from the crystal ball arid sheep guts level to the serious study of their relation to complex cycles and self-improvement. This can come about only by scientifically examining the use of astrology, not its assumptions or history. Therefore, if the scientists sincerely wish to disprove astrology, they should thoroughly examine it first. William R. Klocko �Coppers Junk abounding on the tube writing of this show is Columbo-c\e\ier a'nd Dennis Weaver is a good ol' t>oy from way back when. Marshall Dillon taught Chester well. by Robb Adler Spectrum Arts Staff The networks run a big operation. Every year they smuggle in croplbads of junk to millions of Americans across the nation. When the junk is good, everybody rests easy and enjoys their nightly fix. Sometimes the junk is bad. Then it's my job to find out what went wrong. My name is Gannon. I carry a badge. It was a Friday night and so I was over at Friday's playing Clue. Suddenly, the telephone rang. It was the station house something big was up. Street clinics across the country were reporting heavy influxes of bad junk into the air waves. Worse than that, the junk was being passed by a ring of impostors and cons posing as television cops and detectives. If there's one thing I hate, it's an imitation imitator. Friday and I ran to the TV to stake out our suspects. A good cop never has time — to relax. At 9 p.m. we ran into Steve McGarrett on Hawaii Five-O. McGarrett is an old-guard TV cop. No one dares suspect him of passing bad junk. Danno, Chin and he have kept the islands clean for eight seasons now. They know what they're doing. The direction of their show is always first-rate and Jack Lord's arrogant machine gun machismo attracts fans by the horde. Sure, "the Lord" gets a little trigger-happy now and then, but they love him in Peoria. Not to mention Honolulu. Book him Danno, Murder One. McGarrett always knocks 'em dead. Lieutenant Kangaroo Hawaii Five-0 is followed by one of the shows currently on the air, cheapest however, Barnaby Jones. Old man Jones tries to come on sharp and slick, but he's about as glamorous and interesting as Captain Kangaroo. The scripts for this show play like rejects from Mannix and the directors couldn't get bird for Cannon. Buddy Ebsen is supposedly a talented actor, but he'll always be Jed Clampett to me. And even Jethro would be a better private eye. On NBC on Friday nights, James Garner has enough wit and style to keep his Rockford Files in order, but Angie Dickinson is as inept as Police Woman as she is an actress. Officer Pepper is lovely detective to look at for two or three minutes, but even that can't keep this hour from the pits. The writing is so mundane that Julie Christie couldn't make this show work. Any cops who volunteer to work on Saturday night have got to be fakes, and the crew at S.W.A.T. may be the phoniest television police squad in the history of the medium. There is no identity or -glamour to any of the characters on this show, and these goons are so violent that they make McGarrett look like Barney Miller. Grecian feast Sunday night, though, offers a detective show feast. Kojak is still the only cop series on television in which consistently fine directing, writing and come together. Telly Savalas' and class turn the snide, sarcastic, chrome-domed lieutenant into the most lovable Greek cop to ever roust a suspect, and Stavros, Crocker and the jolly crew down at the precinct house always keep the lollipops rolling. Would I waltz you, Matilda? This is New York's finest. Columbo may be the most annoying dingbat to hit the tube since Edith Bunker, but Peter Falk masterfully turns the character into a likeable slob. And the writing on this show is the best around, even though we always know exactly how the little lieutenant will trap his man. Uh, there's only one thing that bothers me and that's the constant use of that same old line. Columbo' s alternate McCloud is not as absurd a show as it should be chiefly because the wry. Western wrangler is one very quick cowboy. The acting always charisma — I Cops with cfass The class acting of Rock Hudson and Nancy Walker is the only thing that makes McMillan and Wife watchable. Old pro Rock turns Commissioner Mac into a kind of legitimate Al Monday, and Nancy does her quicker-picker-upping without the help of Bounty here. She doesn't have Rhoda or Brenda to pester either, so she spends her time annoying criminals instead. Susan Saint James almost ruins the whole thing with her overdone cuteness, but the two professionals always keep her contained. The show is trash for sure, but it will keep your attention for an hour or two. Monday night is mercifully free of detective shows, but Tuesday and Wednesday bring the most boring crop of all. The Rookies are more straight, wholesome and bland than even Friday and me, and the honest cop-on-the-beat propaganda of Police Story went out with Officer Joe Bolton. Joseph Wambaugh's television concepts are even more stilted than his novels and screenplays. I hope he's a more honest cop than he is a writer. Blues in the night If Tuesday's men in blue are too clean and careful to be real cops, then Wednesday's Baretta is too wild and woolly to even be your ordinary killer. This lunatic is so violent he couldn't make the team at S.W.A.T. Robert Blake does his Al Pacino well, but he's a lot more likeable throwing the bull with Johnny on the Tonight Show than acting like that bull let loose in the china shop. Cannon tries to add a gourmet touch to the television detective menu, but the cute, little fat man is pretty thin when it comes to acting. William Conrad shows less emotion than a patrolman directing traffic. And the material on this show is so trite I wouldn't have even let it on Dragnet. Thursday night ended our stake out with a brief revival of class, however, Mike Stone and Steve Keller patrol the Streets of San Francisco with so much smarts and dedication that you have to like their show. Stone is an old-guard rock with a heart of gold while Keller is a mod young hipster fresh out of college. It is the warm interplay between old and young, conventional and new that makes this show work. The writing sometimes lags but the professional acting of Karl Malden and Michael Douglas can always save the night. Classic mood Harry O is a moody rebel detective in the classic style of Philip Marlowe. A social outcast who has quit the police force to go private, Harry passes his time bumming around the beach, patching up his boat. "The Answer," and occasionally solving the most unsolvable crimes of the twentieth century. Like Marlowe and Sam Spade, he is always being stepped on by his suspects and spit upon by the police. But also like his forebears, he always laughs last. The hook is an oldy but goody and David Janssen could have one-armed man in one episode. But then he probably wouldn't have this series now. And it's a lot nicer on that side of the screen than on this side. I can tell you. I've been on both. caught that Barnaby Jones, Cannon, Police Woman. Police Story, Baretta, The Rookies and S.W.A.T. were brought before a federal audience on charges of impersonating police shows and polluting the air waves. The jury voted unanimously to cancel the shows. On September 8, 1975, the networks appealed this decision and the verdict was reversed. All seven shows will be seen again this year.

The coolest, quickest punk on the block. It's hot. It's magic. It's rock and roll. And we'd almost forgotten what that was all about. Bruce Springsteen has been called the new Elvis, the new Dylan, the new dagger and the new messiah of rock. On the east coast, advance sales for his latest Columbia album Born To Run exceeded the advance sales for Elton John's latest release. In the past month articles on Springsteen have appears in at least ten major newspapers and magazines from the New York Times to New Times.

Aged rock fans who should know better are acting like star-struck barrage Springsteen whenever appears, and faded, time-worn rock refugees have happily returned to the fold to rejoice in the new music of the teenyboppers seventies. Some 20 years after Chuck Berry gave rhythm to the blues, 15 years after Dylan added the words, and ten years after Brian Wilson and the Beatles put it all to music, a new rock and roll amalgam has finally emerged. Bruce Springsteen is its catalyst, creator and after only three released already its legendary albums — symbol. Hot licks the Springsteen formula incorporates that is unique to rock and roll is a dash of existential angst heard seriously before only in middle period Dylan and Primal Ono Lennon, a hefty helping of dramatic dynamics that puts David Bowie to shame, and an exquisite touch of sensitive musical What "Let's turn on the bustle and undo the muscle in here," Springsteen shouts to his band at the beginning of "Kitty's Back" and the amazingly tight, always ready E Street Band graciously complies. Springsteen's live performance pulls the audience out of its seats like a cosmic magnet. This is what rock and roll is all about. Rock Echoes of Roy Orbison, Phil Spector and early English Mercy rock resound through Springsteen's music, and Bruce acknowledges his roots in concert by playing such, rock and roll classics as Gary U.S. Bonds' "Dancing Till a Quarter To Three," the Isley Brothers' "Twist And Shout," and the Survivors' forgotten masterpiece "Everytime That You (Walk In The Room)." Springsteen's original tunes to the themselves often harken back standard, timeless rock rhythms and guitar riffs of the fifties and early sixties. Born To Run opens with a twangy Telecaster hook fresh out of the Ventures and all those makeshift, tin California surf bands of the sixties, while "She's The One" on the same album borrows the old Buddy Holly "Not Fade Away" backbeat to build its driving, poetic paean to a strictly Peggy Sue. By adding the poetry to the rock, For the cool, laidback "Saint in the the joyous young rock and roller, however, there is still a way out of the "death trap" of this world. "Man, the dope's that there's still hope," Springsteen sings on his first album Greetings from Asbury Park, and his swinging, uptempo, rocking is a gospel tribute to this hope. Though the world is a cheap, phony, broken down carnival, we can still enjoy the few rides it has to offer. The "Spirit in the Night," the thrill of the Road, the soulful splendor of lust and love are all we need to "live with the sadness." With a steering wheel in his hand and his woman by the "scared and lonely rider" his can flee forever the "Jungleland" into which he was born. The "Last Chance Powerdrive" is always within our reach.

A live , Springsteen performance is as enlightening and entertaining as it is moving and poignant, and his stage and persona presence are always marked by a carefree sense of humor contemporary and however, the disciple moves one step beyond his avatars. It is the profound lyrical sensitivity of both his words and his music that allows Springsteen to bridge the gap from giant to genius in one quick leap. "I'm gonna sit back right easy and laugh," Bruce announces in "Tenth Avenue Freeze Out," and his music and faith make it all so easy to do. Bruce Springsteen is not the James Dean of the seventies then, for unlike the rebel without a cause, he sees the cause but has abandoned the rebellion. Rock poet The title rock-poet has too often too many bequeathed on been undeserving figures by the rock media, but Springsteen may well be the first songwriter to deserve the accolade since Dylan and Lennon. Like both these poets, Springsteen sees modern youth stuck inside of Mobile, cold turkey in a desolate, decadent world.

However, it's rare on this campus that a show such as the one 2,100 people Saw in Clark Hall last Friday night can be had for so little or even for much more. Robert Klein, one of the best of the terrific "new" comedians, presented almost two hours of his scathingly honest comedy and amazingly sane craziness. Some tempers in the audience wore thin after a half-hour wait in the raw outdoors as UUAB finished setting up the sound system. But Klein, with his seemingly limitless energy and spontaneity, soon made it all forgotten. His performance included samples from most of his records, including his latest release. New Teeth. The "At the Dentist" routine was performed almost verbatim from the recording, as well as some of his routines mocking television commercials and movies "I wasn't sure what it was," he said later, "but I figured it, was some sort of x inside campus joke." Klein further proved that nothing and — no one is safe from his insanity.

A few minutes later, however, another man walked in front of the stage, waving his arms and yelling. It was later determined that both gentlemen were employees of Clark Hall's custodial staff, and were simply upset because the show was running so late. Klein took offense at die second man's actions, however. "If you don't like what I'm doing, don't listen," he shouted. "There's 2,000 people here who want to listen." Actually, there were more like 2,200 people, including the UUAB and Student Association (SA) workers.

When Things Were Rotten (Fresh) Somewhere in this fabled land, the sun is shining bright. Elsewhere, secreted in small cells here and there, lies a jolly band of revelers who hunkered down in front of the Tube with gustatory zeal whenever Get Smart rolled across the screen. Their reason was made clean every week during the opening credits: "Created by Mel Brooks . ." There was the gospel of the 2000-Year-Old Man ("I have over 42,000 children and not one comes to visit me."). They are the keepers of the flame, and it is them Brooks has returned. As producer and creator of When Things Were Rotten. Brooks is not, let me emphasize right now, chrurning out a Blazing Saddles every week. He's been around too long, in TV, films and on stage; to known enough not to shoot his entire wad each week (to borrow a handy showbiz cliche; but then, "show biz" is a showbiz cliche too). This is not a deification, either; Brooks is hardly above an occasional snatch from the Keystone bins, and the laughs do, at times, come cheap. But they do come, neither thick nor fast, but in sufficient numbers to prove, that Mel Brooks knows more than practically anyone else in television about what is really funny. He knows about the Saturday-matinee images that will always remain with us cowboys, haunted houses. In When Things Were Rotten we have the browbeaten peasants, whose last farthings are forced out of their grip by Prince John's tax collectors. SNAP! You ve got it Robin Hood! Of course.

Dimwit Maid Marian (Misty Rowe) and Dick Gautier a Robin Hood with every tooth in place lead a band of Merry Men (sfexism?) who raid Castle Nottingham, and exit to the strains of "You Gotta Be A Football Hero;" they also hold a feast where the cook wears one of those Woolworth-type barbecue aprons, this one emblazoned "I Hate Cooking And Prince John." The Sherrif of Nottingham is Henry Polic II, a delicious villain steeped in oil, vitriol and Bad Seasons. He's a parody of every leering, black garbed sadist you ever saw twist a rack, whose favorite archery target is mounted on the back of a peasant. Archery ran through the debut of When Things Were Rotten like swallows ran through Monty Python and the Roly Grail. Its basic plot was the archery-contest-to-lure-Robin-out-of-hiding bit; one of ’ the contestants represented "Lord McDonald's Golden Archers Over 1,000,000 Dispatched." Even the hoary old "Arrow Shirt" gag was pressed into service yet again. But Brooks' roots are as securely in vaudeville as anywhere; he's not cheating. The Monty Python foray into the medieval mists was more inspired and manic than Brooks' bombast, true. But the Pythons only had one shot at it; Brooks is doing a series, and he has to keep some perspective on longevity. This show, like all ideas, will exhaust itself in its time.

The multiple image, the photo story, the sequence and some photographic books have attempted to encompass - the continuity of time. The photo story often fluctuated between the necessity of choosing good picture and of having clear narrative. In practice, dull pictures broke the thread, regardless of how relevant their subject matter. Unlike film, in which time is truly plastic and continuous, a series of photographs is a sequence of arrests in time; the interstices are filled by the viewer, out of knowledge and associations with which he surrounds the individual pictures.

When the plane lost a propeller, Fung Joe Guey plummeted out of history as quickly as he had flown dizzily into it.

I think the magic is somehow contained in the combination of the two worlds Windrider managed to straddle; that of the dreamer and that of the mechanic. He is the mythical Chinese dragon both wise and powerful happily trapped in human flesh. One final note; Dragonwings, which is 248 pages long, which is set in small print, and which is the excuse for a great deal of fine, authentic writing, is being promoted as a "young adult" novel, a "junior" book. I freely admit I don't know what the hell these categories mean, but in placing this fact last I am instinctively following a standard which is as accurate as it is perverse: everybody hates young adults (even young adults), and therefore it does no good at all to mention such a prejudiced category at the beginning of a review. The "junior" status of this book puzzled me at first but then I remembered one thing and took the time to reflect on another. REMEMBERED: Dragonwings easily reduces to an inane, lightweight philosophical structure that is to say, it says too many sensible and humane things too clearly. Everyone knows an "adult" book must be both amoral and depressing if it is any good. The following would not do, for instance: "I had found my mountain of gold, after all," Moon Shadow reflects, "and it had not been nuggets but people who made it an • — the printed page. — — Because of this, there are some good moments, some memorable "pieces" like this one, celebrating a first visit to a "demon" (white) household: Robin Whitlaw, Moon Shadow's demon girl companion, sails a kite on a lonely beach; Black Dog, a psychopathic opium addict, menaces and thrills; and food, both Chinese and American, bulges life-like and tempting from — — One thing: Moon Shadow first comes to the "Land of the Golden Mountain" (the United States) when he is eight years old. Not only has he been raised on a farm, but he has been raised on a farm in "The Middle Kingdom" (China). Both of these factors distance him from "reality" in the urban, white United States. Much of the early book is seen through, the eyes of this young, credulous and intensely suspicious foreigner. There are more useful and lovely pieces left from the wreck of this book after I have read it: Windrider has a long, magical dream about his dragon ancestry; But what about Dragonwings as a "yellow” book as Oriental-American art? In a disappointingly clear way. Yep asserts in the "Afterword" that the book was partly written to dispel popular American stereotypes of the Chinese: Charlie Chan, Fu Manchu, clots of dumb houseboys. "I wanted to show that Chinese-Americans are human beings upon whom America has had a unique effect," he says. But Yep's exposition does not assert as much as his fiction convincingly invents: more than anything, modern Chinese-American literature needs to invent strong men. hero are nearly Atavistic variations of the excusable in a literature so desperate for central male figures. (Witness; Yardbird Reader, Volume Three most of which was devoted to yellow literature.) The same need is felt for strong women (mothers) as well. In Dragonwings, Moon Shadow's mother and the first excessively grandmother are remote presences understanding, and the second flatly crabby. Yep's book is just another illustration of how firmly dominated Chinese-American literature is by child narrators. In this context, Moon Shadow's clever eyes shine out like a — down to The historical trappings are accurate interior of a Chinese laundry before the San Franci but the family history and earthquake constellation of characters Yep weaves around the cei figure, the aviator, are entirely his own creation, inventory-hero is thankfully renamed "Windrider" most of what we learn about him.

On any sunny day you would see sailboats gliding over the surface, leaving fine white lines behind them that were their wakes. Their sails would belly out full and white before the wind. And the breeze would rise up from the bay, coo! and salty, passing over the hissing grass. From down the hill we heard the sound of breaking glass and rough, coarse laughter, and then six demon soldiers walked by, their blanket rolls bulging with loot. . . Their bay one tied rifles were slung over their shoulders, and their very red faces made me think they had been drinking stolen liquor. They were puffing away on fat cigars. . . It is tempting to say that some of the finest pieces of writing were "remembered" by Moon Shadow in his role as narrator, but were experienced by Laurence Yep himself, who grew up in the same part of the country. up." REFLECTED UPON: A friend of mine never gets tired of saying that all serious American literature was written first for children. I would not put Dragonwings in the category of Huckleberry Finn, but I would at least say there is a dragon hiding in this man Laurence Yep and probably in his future books. I sense that it is a powerful and magical dragon. —Corydon Ireland — This weekend Film fans rejoice You can draw your own conclusions as to the significance of the UUAB Film Committee showing Murder on die Orient Express and Hearts and Minds, the Vietnam documentary, on the same weekend.

Charlotte Rampling, initially a good and jagged actress in films like Georgy Girl, has become rather uninteresting of late, although this may'be due to the parts she's been playing, The Night Porter, etc. Here, as a femme fatale, it is difficult to tell whether Rampling is doing a stylized imitation of Lauren Bacall or is merely being stiff. Again Silvia Miles plays an aging slut and although she plays it well, * it is the fourth consecutive time. The screenplay by D.Z.

Prodigal Sun �RECORDS Grateful Dead/ Blues for Allah (Grateful Dead/UA Records) Jerry Garcia may well become the Guy Lombardo of the sixties' "love generation." (Guy Garcia and the Royal Californians?) Those of you who boogied, tripped and drank Ripple to the tune of Aoxomoxoa in 1968 will find Blues for Allah pleasant accompaniment for the /bellow moods which usually begin to set in at about 25. Those of you who weren't into the Dead seven years ago (and there are a lot more than are willing to admit it) have since replaced boogie, tripping and Ripple with the bump, 'ludes and Heineken's, and hence need something a little more substantial than Blues to keep them in sand Out in no man's land Where Allah does command What good is spilling blood? It will not grow a thing drown Dig it. There are two very good songs here, but strangely enough, they are both instrumentals and the shortest cuts on the album. "King Solomon's Marbles" is a a Bob Weir R&B song with atrocious vocal assistance by Donna Godchaux and a saxophone solo by someone named Steven Schuster. The title cut and the Glass following medley ("Sand Castles Camels"/"Unusual Occurrences in the Desert") form the only "progressive*' (in terms of the Dead) piece of music on the album, and aren't even that interesting. The words form a cute little prayer about the Mideast crisis, and are reproduced in English, Arabic, Hebrew and Persian on the lyric sheet: & The ships of Prodigal Sun state sail on Mirage and J. Geils Band, Hotline (Atlantic) Rock and roll is undergoing its death throes. Rock is splintering and fragmenting into a multitude of directions. The old guard or establishment headed by the Stones refuses to relinquish their Chuck Berry riffs and a musical paradigm that has outlived its usefulness and grown obsolete. The avant garde in rock is transmuting to a jazz synthesis with a prominent role being played by the keyboards and synthesizer. A mutant rock is being constructed which is shunning boogie and a strict guitar orientation. Progressive bands like Todd Rundgren's Utopia, Chick Corea and a host of others are hot in pursuit of more expansive and expressive musical rainbows. The J. Geils Band is an outstanding example of an old guard band meeting its Waterloo. It is a dinosaur plodding about and reeling in near unconsciousness as the ice age seals its fate. Hotline is the J. Geils Band latest offering. It is a textbook case of a band decaying from an antiquated musical approach. J. Geils is a second generaltion rock and roll band that plays with all the finesse and savvy of a musty garage crammed with acne pocked teenagers irritation. Perhaps VVolf should let Faye Dunaway, his wife, sing. It could only be an improvement. These bad boys from bean town are toil within the hellish 'and confines of artistic incoihsequentiality. Relics imprisoned in a time warp. Magic Dick's harp playing consists of recycling standard chops with such regularity that you can set your watch by it. J. Geils' guitar work is as enthralling as watching the stock boys at the local grocery stamp canned goods. The songs are exercises in stupidity and doomed to crippling ' awake at night. Okay, it does have a really nice cover (one of their best to date), a plastic-lined sleeve, and a neat skeleton picture on the label. However, what's in the grooves shows that, besides getting their own record company, the group has done nothing in the last three years. The material is Garcia's typical mealy-mouthed jello music, with a few exceptions. "The Music Never Stopped" is home about though, and besides, your parents probably already have it. -John Duncan jazz piece which, although slightly static, contains some nice riffing by Garcia on guitar and Keith Godchaux on electric piano. "Sage & Spirit" is a pretty acoustic piece showcasing Schuster on flutes and not sounding at all like the Grateful Dead. The hard-core Dead freaks among you will wish you had kept on reading this instead of throwing it away, since I have saved the good news for last: it's better than their last two. There is nothing nearly as bad as "Loose Lucy" or "U S. Blues" and nothing nearly as obnoxious as the horns used on parts of Wake of the Flood. What is on it is nothing to write attempting to emulate their idols. Peter Wolf's vocals try to capture the and flavor of Jagger. He fails miserably but even if he was successful, he would be parodying an anachronism. Wolf's jive greaser bromides contain none of Springsteen's razor sharp intensity or swooping metaphors. Wolf howls a vacuous ode to the bygone days when was applauded. Rock sheer audacity audiences have grown a mite more sophisticated and Wolf's ravings about "getting down" and other tripe laden cliches onlv oroduce fodder for ennui and essence consciousness lowering. The lyrics expound the gem-like wisdom of women knowing their place or else receiving an unrequested nose job and some unexpected dental work. Puerile sexual references, which are about as erotic as Doris Day in a housecoat, are sprinkled like fertilizer throughout the disc. Aside from these titanic shortcomings. Hotline is non-habit forming and easily assimilated by the likes of Gerry Ford and other frontal lobotomy patients. In summation. Hotline is like paying Ma Bell rip off rates for a bad connection with a wrong number. It must .be the death of rock and roll. Long live mutant madness. —C.P.

For instance, a major mistake on the album is the song they're promoting as their new single, "Out of Control," of Eagles' Desperado fame. The Eagles really justice. can't write this band off as just another mediocre rock and roll group. They played 170 concerts last year, and rumor has it that in the Midwest they're We R.E.O.

But for now, I don't think R.E.O. Speedwagon really means it. the potential group needs. They have the move, and a few changes could do it. They got a good start by getting Bill Szymczyk to produce the album. Szymczyk is responsible for a lot of good efforts from a lot of people, including the Eagles, Joe Walsh and Edgar Winter. His production mastery, and some decent guitar work by Gary Richrath, almost pull the album along. But what are they afraid- of? Lead-singer Mike Murphy has a good voice and plays a pretty good piano, but he seems to be holding back that to emotional burst that could make the group believable. And every time Richrath starts to wind up, the rest of the band joins in and everything gets back to •normal. No one is allowed to stray, even for a second, for fear that continuity will be lost. With exception, one are the songs original efforts and are capable of providing the background for a themselves DORM MICHAEL VOTE Day three: I guess country rock is inadequate as a description of the music of Michael O'Gara.

The gimmicks are for the most part new to Focus, with the exception of the familiar, possibly stolen, movie theme melodies used so successfully in the past. Of course, Thys van Ueer now plays synthesizers, and adds to the muzak-like quality of many songs with overabundant use of an ersatz string section. Jan Akkerman is now using a squalky-talkie guitar speaker (like Rufus) and although he plays some very nice acoustic (more than usual), he compensates for it with some bad solos previously unheard of from him.

The legislative interest in the enactment of Title IX should be the primary source of any determination as to the legality of any all-female courses. Nevertheless, this apparently was disregarded by the administration in directing the elimination of the classes whose subject matter was designed to correct the evils that had previously existed. Common sense in the application of the written word is not inconsistent the accomplishment of the ends of the law which in many cases is merely a poor attempt to graphically describe the legislative attempt. To summarize, I agree with your point of view and that of your editorial which I believe is better written than your news article. Incidentally, Title IX is the law. It does not “elucidate” the law. The two articles on the primary election in Buffalo deserve some comment. 1 think you would do a service to your readers if you gave wider coverage to the news of the incumbents and not portray the challengers as the exclusive possessors with of altruistic motivations.

Page fifteen �Vital role Fireflies used to detect early stages of cancer by Meg Covey Spectrum Staff Writer For centuries, the firefly’s ability to produce light has fascinated mankind. Found in many regions all over the world, the small nocturnal insect recently has become a crucial factor in cancer and other medical and environmental research. A report from the Sigma Chemical Company states that “The firefly is a valuable source of the rare chemical substrate luciferin, and enzyme luciferase. Used by research scientists and chemists the world over, these chemicals are playing vital roles in the search for possible cures of human ailments, including cancer.” The lantern has become an important research tool because of its extreme sensitivity to microscopic amounts of the energy-producing compound Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) in a mass of substance. detection Scientists have experimented with the firefly as a means of detecting cancer in its early stages. Results indicate that when the firefly chemicals are added to cancerous cells, the light intensity is much lower because the diseased cells contain less ATP than healthy ones. Milton J. Cormier wrote in Natural History magazine that “Tests for infectious bacteria in the urinary tract and bloodstream, which once took many hours, can now be done in minutes using the firefly system.” Researchers count the number of bacterial cells in an extract by adding luciferin and its luciferase. The Cancer Potent hobby. Taublieb warns that during this time period, people tend to become a bit overzealous in testing the wine. He suggested making “a little extra for tasting” or else “you won’t have the five gallons you thought you had.” In America, people like their wine clear, as opposed to who have no Europeans preference, Taublieb states. Wine will appear cloudy when the yeast particles are too light in weight and suspend in the liquid. To “fine” this wine, there are several procedures to choose from. use Wineries mechanical most amateur winemakers cannot afford this filters, but method. Instead, they may add bentonite, which is a form of clay. Otherwise, gelatin and tannin can be combined to the mixture, forming an electric attraction which will force the particles to the bottom of the bottle. “In the country, folks beat up the white of an egg with a cup of wine to absorb the particles,” Taublieb said, or they add a cup of milk to white wine. more bacterial cells there are, the more intense the light will be due to the higher amount of ATP. In another aiea of study, researchers discovered that the time spent in determining bacterial pollution levels in water has been significantly decreased through the use of firefly chemicals. Results that once took 48 hours to determine are now arrived at in four hours. Down through history Ancient Oriental, poets often commented on the bright flash of the firefly’s tail. Aristotle later observed that “. .some things, though they are not in their nature fire nor any species of fire, seem to produce light.” As Aristotle indicated, the firefly’s light gives off no heat, and it has thus come to be called “cold light.” Down through the ages, men such as believe they do. He bases his theory on the fact that there is one species whose Robert Boyle, Francis Bacon, Raphael females prey on males of other species by DuBois, and E. Newton Harvey have mimicing their flashes. Because the female studied the firefly’s luminescence.

All his wines are kosher. He emphasizes that white wine should be served chilled, while red wine tastes best at room temperature. Wine has been abundant in the cellar of Taublieb’s basement for years, and yet only recently has he achieved local fame, “WHEN announced that there would be a wine-tasting forum to promote a new wine. The guys at the library urged me to enter, although they wanted only novices,” he explained. This initial appearance led Taublieb to weekly appearances on the same show. As an aphrodesiac The increasing popularity of wine is becoming more evident on campuses. Irr many colleges, wine has become part of the curriculum in home economics, chemistry, botony, biology, geography and sociology. In winemakers are where ideas.

No one was indicted for failing to provide speedy and adequate medical attention to the inmates injured during the attack, and no one was indicted for lying about the hostages’ cause of death.

He has received numerous reports of “tenison” among the inmates and their keepers. Although some Puerto Rican and black guards have been added to the formally all-while prison staff, he said, there are none on the inmates' counseling staff. The overcrowded conditions, which were alleviated somewhat after the rebellion when authorities transferred some of the rebels to other facilities, has reappeared.

Page seventeen �Buffalo golf team: tradition of success by Larry Amoros Staff Writer Spectrum Coach Bill Dando of the Buffalo golf team is an irrepressable optimist. He has a lot of faith in this year’s team, and feels that it is his best squad ever. The Bulls started off this season in the same way they concluded the last one by winning. After the first match of the season against St. Bonaventure was rained out, they went to Erie, Pa. and defeated Gannon College 401-429. — Room for improvement? “We’re solid all the way through. We’re a better team than last year,” Dando observed. One has to wonder, though, how much* better they could possibly be. Last season they finished the year with a 14-1 record, and performed splendidly in post-season play. In the Tri-State Tournament, they placed third in a field of 16. They won the EC AC Qualifier, topping 35 other teams, and wound up fourth in the overall ECAC championship. Although Buffalo’s team average against Gannon may seem to be eighties aren’t a little high, Dando insists that it really indicative of what the kidii can do," said Dando. “I’m looking for improved golf out of Jim Batt and Dale Ackerman. I’m also counting on sophomore Greg Andzel for good golf.” Both Batt and Ackerman are seniors, and that may be the team’s only impending problem. Next year, the Bulls will Idse many of their top golfers. Last year’s team leaders, Jim Gallery and Rick Buczynski, have graduated, but Batt and Ackerman are there to step in and take their place. “I’m always looking for new blood. This team is mostly seniors and juniors,” said Dando. Success story Not surprisingly, hard work and experience have been the keys to the golf Bulls’ recent success. Heavy schedules, hard practices, and prior playing experience are three factors which have made the Bulls into a golf powerhouse in Western New York according to Dando. Using a system similar to the one employed by tennis coach Pat McClain, Dando allows several of his six reserve golfers to challenge the established players in practice. If they win, they might get a chance to compete in the next match. Dando noted, “They have no set positions. It keeps them on their toes.” The veteran squad will play its first home match on September 22 at the Audubon course against Oswego. Dando predicted that the Great Lakers along with the Purple Eagles of Niagara should give Buffalo its toughest competition of the year. (Del cl by David J. Rubin New York Jets 23, Buffalo 14.

Ms. Allende spoke to over 600 people in Norton Hall’s Fillmore Room Friday night. Elected to the Chilean Congress from the Socialist Party (SP) by the people of Santiago for three consecutive terms. Senator Allende was arrested after the September 11, 1973 right-wing coup, in which her brother, the President, and thousands of citizens were murdered. “President Ford admitted that the coup was aided by the CIA and the multi-national corporations,” she charged. “The fascists imposed a reign of terror on a people proud of its democratic heritage,” she added, “with brutality comparable to that of Nazi Germany.” New phenomenon on college campuses by Dan Hegeman Spectrum Staff Writer ‘Cretins’ in power In a press conference held Friday afternoon, she said that a coup staged by “traitor generals” can not take the title of parliamentarian away from her, “since it was given to me by the Chilean the Chilean workers” foremost. When she people arrested, she signed her name with, “Deputy of was the Second District of Santiago.” — The senior citizen as college student is a phenomenon occurring and universities throughout the country, particularly in urban schools. Retired men and women are attending regular college courses, generally tuition-free or at reduced cost. The senior citizens’ reasons for taking the courses vary. Often natural interest and a desire for personal growth are the only reasons. Occasionally, more practical reasons, such as taking a tax course to save money, are given. In many programs, credits are given and senior citizens may actually earn degrees. Many times the interaction of young and old is an education in itself. In a project at Fairhaven College in Bellingham, Washington, 31 men and women, each at least 60 years old, lived on campus in their own dorm and attended regular classes with the younger at colleges students. Feeling young When asked if they considered themselves old, all 31 of the senior citizens at Fairhaven, without exception, answered no. Eighty-one year old Mary Yotter said of her first class at Fairhaven, “Well, I never saw such a thing. I walked in late. The students were all over the floor, lying on their stomachs, on their backs, and every which way. I learned afterwards that the fellow sitting in the chair leading the class wasn’t the teacher. The teacher was down on the floor with the other students. This was a whole new world for me.” The senior citizens at Fairhaven adjusted quite well to their “new world,” however, and it proved to be an invaluable experience. One octagenarian said, “This has been a real education for me. I’ve learned to accept the modern mode of dress and hair style. Before, hair and jeans meant ‘hippies,’ a term 1 used as a sort of unthinking blanket denunciation. But now 1 know that beneath the whiskers and long hair there will be a delightful person.” Mutual exchange Not only the senior citizens learned and grew from the experience, though. The students also gained from it. Discussing the Fairhaven project in American Education Magazine Catherine Davis writes, “For some students, seeing the older people actively involved at Fairhaven has helped to dispel some of their fears of old age and, for others, there has been the simple pleasure of getting to know older people.” Here at this University, 74-year-old Mary English, taking courses in the Science of Georgraphy and Early American History, spoke of “feeling welcome,” said the “young people” were nice and that the professor seemed glad to have her. She “didn’t feel out of place,” as she had first feared. She plans to resume courses after January. Most senior citizens taking courses here are participating through the “Sixty Years of Age or Over Auditing Program.” Administered by the Division of Continuing Education and Millard Fillmore College, the program allows senior citizens (60 and over) to sit in on courses, on a space available basis. Both day and evening courses are included in this program, and there is no tuition charge or fees, no , —continued on page 2— —Burke Laura Allende Between her five arrests, she aided the underground resistance. After the last arrest, she was taken to the Alamos prison camp, and held for five months. She was mistreated the first day of her arrest, and suffered deteriorating health, but was not tortured, as many others were, because of her international recognition. When asked by her captors what she thought of the military rulers, she replied, “I don’t have anything to say. Cretins thoughts can’t be changed.” Under growing demands for her release, she was deported to Mexico in March of 1975, and vowed to “continue abroad as a representative of the people and soldiers in the resistance.” Life deteriorates Since the coup, life for practically everyone has grown miserable. Workers do not make enough to feed their families, earning “only enough to eat for ten days out of a month,” she explained. The rectors of schools at all levels, from primary school to university, have been replaced by military men, they can “who have no academic qualifications only march and shoot.” The academic level has decreased so much that the “general culture has retrogressed to a stage where it was 50 years ago.” Books continued to be burned; not only Marxist and socialist books, but works of liberal professors, such as John Kenneth Galbraith. Under the popular Unity government, tremendous efforts were made to bring workers and peasants into the educational life of the country. “Our goal was to make the universities a creative institution for all people, geared to serve their needs,” Ms. Allende said. — Education under attack Since the coup, all of this has been reversed, the University statute has been nullified, and democratic rights of free speech, meeting and petition have been abolished, along with teachers unions, Ms. Allende maintains. Some “1,600 a c ad SWuUita* have beer eliminated,” she stressed, while entire department: in the social sciences, humanities and philosoph> have been closed down. A professor of Bio-Chemistry at one leading university noted that “of 40 members of his faculty, only 11 remain,” she added. Seventy-one of the mathematicians at another percent University have left, while the Chilean Biological society announced a loss of 71 percent of their members in 1974. The severe conditions, economic hardships and lack of academic freedom have caused the “exodus of those scholars” that have not been arrested, she emphasized. “Scientific investigation is presently non-existent in our country,” she concluded. Isolate the junta Additionally, thousands of students have been expelled for suspicion of opposition to the junta. Sixty-five percent of the students at a technical university were expelled, while nearly half of the 35,000 students formerly enrolled at the University of Santiago have been thrown out. The introduction of military training in all schools, beginning in elementary grades, is the only new feature in Chilean education. “The North American people and academic community can not be indifferent to this destruction of education and culture,” she lamented. Making references to the broad support the Vietnamese and Kent State students received from the American public, she urged Americans to “demand that the military junta not receive representation in the [U.N.] General Assembly” when they come up for discussion next month. She pointed out that the U.N. has taken positions to deny aid or recognition to other countries guilty of “violations of human rights,” such as Rhodesia and South Africa.

The program was started in the fall of 1974 with 42 people taking part. Student Affairs Taskthe Force Affairs Task v Why go back? A questionnaire designed by the staff of Millard Fillmore College was sent to the 42 participants, with 32 returned. One item in the questionnaire asked the senior citizens about their main objectives in taking courses. The answers fell basically into five categories. Cultural achievement was cited most often by the participants (75 percent) while only four people mentioned preparation for a new endeavor, such as a part-time career after retirement or volunteer work requiring new knowledge or training. Updating of knowledge obtained in earlier years, contact with specialists and scholars, and contact with young adults were also cited by the senior citizens. included: to understand oneself better by taking course, to keep intellect alive, to gain exposure to different viewpoints, to have fun, to learn more and to learn up-to-date business methods. NYPIRG challenges charges for phone information calls Sticking it out 1 6'f those who responded, 84 percent remained with the course until its conclusion. Certain drawbacks did arise, however, and certain improvements were suggested. Parking was a major problem. Ms. English mentioned great parking problems and two tickets "which made the courses a bit more expensive” than she had expected. To help remedy this, suburban participants are advised to take courses at the Ridge Lea or Amherst Campus. Some of the senior citizens participating in the undergraduate program have expressed a desire to continue their education by taking professional school courses. However, these courses are not open to them currently. Many of the senior citizens in the 60 and Over Program were surprised that such a small number of people in their age bracket take advantage of the opportunity to return to school. Robert Bear, one of the participants, described it as a "wonderful program." but stressed that senior citizens in general did not seem to be aware of it He felt senior citizen organizations should spread the word to their members. New horizons In general, senior citizen college programs give these people a fulfilling way to spend their leisure time. It allows them continued intellectual growth through contact with dew people and new ideas. It gives them a chance to remain active in retirement and allows them an opportunity to do what they never had time for in the past. Connie Miller is a retired medical secretary taking courses at Fairhaven College. “So many of us were so busy living day to day during the years of raising a family, we had little time for cultural activities,” she said. “Those of us who worked saw the same people for the last 20 years. At Fairhaven we meet a new group of people; we don't live in the past. We have a chance to grow. I think when we leave here, we will be prepared to continue to broaden our acquaintances and to be more understanding of young people and young ideas.” .SALE SHICKLUNA BICYCLE SHOP 1233 Niagara St. (At Breckenridge) 884 2670 BUFFALO, N Y.

There membership The New York Telephone Company’s practice of charging for directory assistance in obtaining long distance area codes has been challenged by a New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) petition. A Public Service Commission (PSC) staff recommendation issued Friday supports the NYPIRG petition, holding that the “New York Telephone Company’s (decision to charge] for area code requests is completely unauthorized by this Commission.” The staff report was written after a study of the hearing records which led to approval of the directory assistance charges. The recommendation to eliminate the charges will be considered by the PSC. which has the final say in Ross would not estimate how much telephone company customers have been overcharged, but speculated that businesses, which place a disproportionate, share of long distance calls, have probably been affected most. Private consumers, however, may be discouraged from requesting area code information and from making as many long distance calls as they have been, Ross noted. Reimbursement problems the matter. The NYPIRG petition requests the PSC “to order the New York Telephone Company to immediately cease this practice." The phone company now charges S.IO per call for information, with no charge for the first six calls each month and a S.30 credit if no requests for , directory assistance arc made.

The PSC staff report supported this interpretation, stating. "Nowhere in the voluminous record of this case was such a proposal broached by the company.” ' problem of reimbursing subscribers, who have overpaid still remains. Should the PSC give an unfavorable ruling on the petition, “NYPIRG will consider taking the case to court,” Ross Said. Ross hopes that close monitoring of telephone company billing practices will help prevent further abuses. NYPIRG also expects to publish a consumer's guide describing how to challenge a telephone bill.

Desires, thoughts, ambitions in seething confusion. God only knows what will come of them. A hundred young soldiers, eighteen lieutenants, thirty warrant officers and noncoms, all sitting here, wanting to start to live . . . Every man has been tempered through countless, pitiless days, every man is a complete soldier, no more and no less. But for peace? Are we suitable? Are we anything but soldiering? fit now for The Vietnam conflict is over But for a decade Vietnam occupied the center of American politics, newspaper headlines, and social controversy. It fostered the rebirth of extreme patriotism and extreme dissent. “War-monger,” “Draft-dodger,” “Hawk,” “dove,” weapons “pacification,” and “genocide” became that did nearly as much damage here at home, though in a different sense, as the guns and bombs of the “hot war” in Southeast Asia. The Vietnam conflict is over. And more than 6 million young Americans who took part in it are Home. Some crippled, some blind, some scarred, some condemned to relive moments of that war for the rest of — their lives. The Vietnam conflict is over. We can put it behind us. We can go to work or school today and not have to think about what the casualty reports will be on this evening’s news, or if there will be a demonstration or a riot. The Vietnam conflict is over. But what of those individuals who had to become an integral part of that conflict no matter what the reason? Can they simply pick up where they left off? Can they go back to what their lives were before they were so rudely interupted? The Vietnam conflict is over. So who are those individuals. Where did you come from? Where are you going? — You’re free You start in California, or Texas, or New Jersey, or ary cne of the dozen or so separations processing centers around the continental United States. You take your final physical, collect whatever pay is coming to you, and get into a dress uniform. Then a “boot” lieutenant (“boot” meaning just ou of training) reads a copy of a prepared “Thank you” message, from the President (in the name of a “greatful nation*) and informs you that ’Vou have 24 hours to get off the base. You’re our!! For a few days or a week, or ev«!n a month you think you’re on top of the world. No one giving you orders, no orders to give, no uniforms, no reville, just freedom! Time to forget the whole damn thing! Get back to being “human” again. Then the thought occurs to you. “What do I do now?” You probably thought about it a lot before yriu got out. Maybe you even have Something lined up. But veterans have it made! what difference does that make Look at what they got after W.W. II and Korea. And no sweat! you’re a vet Suddenly, or maybe not so suddenly, you begin to notice that all those “great” G.I. benefits you’d been told about aren’t so great after all. Sure, you can collect unemployment. But what happens when that runs out? Where do you find a job as a machine gunner, or a * .. - - missle technician, or i radioman, or a flight officer in the civilian world? Then you realize you’re 25 or 26 years old and can’t get a decent job. You can’t compete with that 21 year old who was getting his college degree while you were off in some “tropical paradise” getting shot at. Maybe you’re married and have a kid or two. How do you keep them clothed, fed and happy? Then you begin to take notice of the world around you. Nobody’s praising Vietnam veterans. There were no parades, no brass bands, no big “Welcome Home” headlines in the local newspapers. You tell a prospective employer you’re a veteran and suddenly he looks at you almost questioningly. Maybe he watched differently last night’s SWAT episode and is wondering if you’re one of “those” veterans. O.K. So you don’t have a marketable skill. Go to school. Get trained. The Government will pay for it. They said so, didn’t they? You soon find out your education benefits will let alone pay barely pay the rent and buy food tuition. Then you find out the proposed increase in your benefits has been vetoed by the same President who only a few weeks earlier said “we cannot and we must not forget the veterans of Vietnam.” - — — The road back So''you seem to be “forgotten” after all. Well, maybe its better that way. Who wants to be remembered for an “unpopular” or “immoral” war anyway? Ironically, it was an American General, George S. Patton, who said “Americans can’t stand a loser They will not tolerate a loser . .” And buddy, you’re a loser! But you have no choice. You need a decent job but you can’t get one. And it’s not just because the times are tough! Unemployment among young veterans is nearly double that of other young jobseekers. So you ask your wife to get a job . . . babysitting or something, or you get a part-time job yourself, for two bucks an hour. Then you take a deep breath and start back to school. - — You don’t know what courses to take you haven’t been to school in years since you were a “kid.” You wonder if you’re capable of doing college work. Worst of all, you’ll be an “old man” in a classroom full of 18 or - 19 year olds. How will you fit in? Will you be accepted?, Will you be able to handle a “hostile attitude” if you encounter it? Or will you just be an idle curiosity or a “freak” to youf classmates? Well, who gives a dman?! Besides you that is . . . So you go to school and find nobody takes much notice. There are even a couple other vets in your class. If you can just manage to keep the money trickling in and get some decent grades, maybe you'll be able to support yourself and your family in three or four years jr- maybe. — part-time job, if benefits don’t get cut back, if The Vietnam conflict is over. But for veterans here and on other college campuses, in vocational centers, training establishments, and continuing education programs around the country, it has not ended, but only transformed itself into a struggle for economic and social survival. The Vietnam conflict is over. Like so many of the subjects of political history, the Viet vets learn bitterly that all the fuss was not about their lives in particular, but about other “more important” issues. The veterans attending classes here are no different than veterans anywhere else. But more important, they are no different, than any other individual transitioning to a new way of life. Obstacles -must be overcome, problems must be solved, adjustments must be made. For most, college is, or will become, a rewarding and enjoyable experience. New friendships will be made, opportunities discovered, and knowledge gained. They’ll come away with a greater understanding of the world around them, and the forces that have shaped their lives. So now is the time to put the war behind, to turn our minds and energies to the future. There they stand now and propose to leach us again. But we expect them to set aside their dignity. For, after all. what can they leach us? We know life now better harsh, than they; we have gained another' knowledge bloody, cruel, inexorable But for peace? Are we suitable? Are we fit now for anything but soldiering? - ' ... Struggle to survive The important thing is you've begun again. Sure, you’ve got a long way to go. But you should make it, if prices don’t go up too much, if the Veteran’s Administration (VA) doesn’t foul up your checks, if you don’t get sick, if the federal or state governments decide to help out with a useful loan or maybe a bonus like the of the “better” wars got, if you don’t wind up in the VA hospital because of a service incurred wound that won’t leave you alone, if you can keep that veterans They must begin again ...

He is interested in writing about veterans on campus. italicized passages in the above The “commentary” were taken from The Road Back by Erich Maria Remarque. LJGL closing at midnight Budget cuts lead to earlier library closing times Budget cuts have forced the University libraries to shorten their service hours for this year. Most directly affected are those students who study or read in the libraries during the late-night hours. The Undergraduate Library (UGL) which previously operated from 8 am.—3 a.m. will now at midnight. The Ellicott Library which was open until midnight last year now closes at 10 p.m. The Ridge Lea Library will not open at all on Sundays. According to Robert Burton, close Assistant Director of Public Services, each library cut the hours which staff members felt were the least damaging to the student body. “It is not so much a budget cut as it is the raising of the minimum wage,” that accounts for the decrease in available funds, he said. While acknowledging that cutbacks are needed, Student Association (SA) Director for Academic Affairs David Shapiro feels cuts should not be made in areas where literally hundreds of students are affected. Burton said the University is well aware of the problems created by earlier closing hours. But, he added that at the present time, there just is no money to be allocated for extending the hours. “Most of the library staff is comprised of students and there is no money to pay them,” he noted. Exam hours An idea to utilize volunteer has been considered, he said. Burton promised that all possibilities will be looked into, but, he cautioned that volunteers need a supervisor present, a situation that again poses help financial problems. The threat also exists that the libraries will not be able to remain open later during exam times. “We’re hoping that enough savings will be amassed in order to extend the library hours during He exams,” Burton said. announced Library’s that the Art relocation at the Ellicott Complex in mid-November will alleviate some of the pressure on the Hall Library as far as accommodating students during the peak hours of use. The issue is not closed, Burton said. Alternatives are still being probed. Shapiro has sent a letter to President Robert Ketter regarding the library problem and noting the need for a quick resolution. “The University is creating a real human problem,” Shapiro said. “Dorm students particularly need a quiet place to study. The University has a commitment to insure this.” SA President Michele Smith emphasized the need for the late night hours: “Late night library hours provide >8 vital service for all students. Students go to the libraries at times when there is no other place to go for studying and research.” 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.

The Twenty-Eight Points were, once and for all, rejected by the inmates, and a compromise did not seem possible. A failure The prisoners were stripped of all their clothing and forced to march in lines around the yards nude, hands on their heads. The purpose for this, authorities told the McKay Commission, was to ascertain that the prisoners no longer had any weapons and that they were not hurt. Immediate medical help, however, was delayed by the authorities. There were reports of prison officials abusing prisoners in retaliation for the rebellion. Large numbers of inmates were forced to crawl across long distances of the muddy yard. The Observers that had remained at Attica heard the bullhorn and the firing, and some broke into tears. Wicker partly blamed himself: “They had all failed. Thirty-five dead was evidence enough . . .Wicker believed he had witnessed, had been part of, a a failure profound human failure, too of understanding, of courage, of intelligence, above all hostages blindfolded to the walkway over Times Square, and held knives was rightfully his alone to bear. But it was enough, he knew, enough for anyone.” The attack At 9:43 a.m., the prison’s power circuit was cut off. A helicopter dropped CS gas into D yard, and the marksmen commenced firing. An officer in the helicopter proclaimed through a bullhorn over and over, “Put your hands on your head and you will not be harmed.” Yet, there were reports of indiscriminate firing, not only the by state troopers, but also, according to the New York Times’ columnist Tom Wicker, eleven Attica Prison Corrections Officers, unauthorized to fire at the time, who poured down rifle shots from the third floor of C Block. Five minutes after the attack began, most of the inmates in the yard were coughing and weeping, practically blinded by the CS bas and unable to use whatever weapons they had left. The yard, one prisoner told Cinda Firestone in her documentary movie, Attica, “looked like a battlefield,” littered with the bodies of 29 prisoners and 9 hostages; all of whom were killed, it was later determined, by bullets. None died Laura Allende the extreme torture and murder of Chilean prisoners. With controlled emotions, Ms. Allende spoke of the horrible treatment she witnessed while in jail herself, and the completely bestial depravity of the junta’s prison guards. One young woman had lost an eye, another was torturned with electricity applied to her genitals, while a third, only 17 years old, was forced to have with a dog. The prisoners could hfear the footsteps of the guards coming late at night for their victims. “I am an old woman,” she said quietly, “and can still remember this last girl shake, with tears running down her face, waiting in fear of being selected. We have very deep wounds.” Yet, because of these crimes, the opposition to the junta grows. Ms. Allende said that many prison guards come for the torture sessions with masks, “so as not to be identified after liberation.” in Resistance is growing Workers have staged slow-downs, secret pamphlets have appeared in Santiago denouncing the junta and calling to organize both the legal and clandestine resistance. Recently, a huge paper plant with ties to the junta, was gutted by fire.

A revolutionary movement must organize its own defense, including having an armed people, she added. While some scattered guerilla, warfare has taken place, the primary emphasis appears to be towards organizing the internal structure and winning broader majorities of people to support and participate in its development. Ms. Allended is being sponsored in this country by the National Coordinating Center in Solidarity with Chile, headquartered in New York, and has already spoken in the Massachusetts House of Representatives and the Women's Political Caucus in Boston, and at a rally of 1,000 people in New York.

The new Student Senate will assume the legislative functions of the old Student Assembly under the terms of the new Student Association (SA) Constitution, which was ratified by the student body in a referendum last spring. The new Constitution established the Senate to deal with all non-budgetary policy matters. A separate budget-making body, the Financial Assembly was also designated by the Constitution, The Senate will be composed 10 will be of 45 members elected this week by the student body, 10 are elected from within the SA Academic Affairs task force, 10 from the Student Affairs task force, 10 from the Student Activities and Services task force, and the 10 members of the SA Executive Committee will automatically become Senators. Ten Senators will also comprise a Finance Committee which will automatically serve on the Financial Assembly. hassle-free and possible enjoyable as Mike Jones, commuter The first order of business for the Senate and Financial Assembly will be allocating $15,000. A list of people who got screwed and need more money: Commuters; they got only $1500, about 65 cents per commuter. Activities: a little more money can make life a lot more bearable. Speaker’s Bureau: highest priority on the questionnaires, cut $2000 last year. Academic Clubs: screwed royally, but less important than the rest. — Undivided attention According to the Constitution, six of the ten Senators elected from the student body must be off-campus residents, and four must be dormitory residents. There are 22 candidates running for the 10 Senate positions in this week’s elections. In drawing up the new Constitution, the Constitutional Reform Committee felt that since the budget consumes so much time and attracts so much attention, it merits an assembly of its own. The Reform Committee felt the new Senate could give its undivided attention to legislative matters The following are personal campaign statements by the 22 Senate candidates: Patricia Lovejoy, commuter The Senate’s main aims should be to see that students are able to attend school without major hassles from'faculty, staff or other students. It is also important to see that the freedom of the Colleges’ learning environment is maintained, especially that of Women’s Studies College. We should try our best to make the commuter’s stay here as Gene loli, commuter The position of Student Senator under the new Constitution entitles the holder to a fairly large amount of control in deciding where your S67.00 activity fee will go. This fact alone should at least encourage you to vote and become familiar with both the Constitution and the candidates. My first priority is to educate the students to realize that they make up the largest population of consumers at this University, and whether we need more buses out at Ellicott and Governors, or smaller classroom populations, they have the power to make such requests. Diane Schomers, commuter Initially, the Senate should be publicued to the student body as far as meetings and agendas go. The students are aware of SA happenings, such as music and art events, but may not be aware of budget happenings. The Constitution again needs revamping. Many loopholes seem Also, more to be apparent activities should be directed toward the commuter students, especially social events. Steve Spiegel, commuter The priorities should be the smooth functioning of the student government to serve the student body of this University. Bearing in mind there are varied interests in this school, the Senate’s job is to be open to all those students and serve each accordingly, resolving conflicts when necessary, and being as fair as possible in the process.

Using my experience, I hope to contribute to keeping the Senate on a course of accountability and responsibility Jeffrey (Jeffy) Schier, commuter This year, there is a new, probably elitist SA Constitution, budget cuts, and a reaffirmed apathy. The community, through commuters, CAC, NYPIRG, minorities, etc. can be joined against the rampant submergence in this institution's bureaucracy. I will attend the Senate meetings, possibly accomplishing something. I may be underweight, but 1 won’t be undermined. JudysSack. commuter The Senate should encourage the participation of all students in all of its program. Senators should have a broad view ol all students interests. By cooperating with each other they can develop projects which will benefit a maximum number of people, such as greater control of administrative policies, more health care, recreation, and entertainment Alice Engelmann, commuter The number one priority of the Senate should be whatever will benefit the majority of the students attending this University I both dorm and commuter students. By doing so we can eliminate some of the tension that I feel exists between dorm and commuting students. Every issue that comes up in the Senate will inevitably affect a great number of us and at this particular time I find it difficult to state my individual opinion upon what the Senate priorities should be. We can have a more together University if we can first learn to cooperate with each other. - John Siegel, commuter 1 believe the Senate should be interested in the needs of the students first and foremost. It should represent the students in all matters at which they cannot be present. Senators have the responsibility to keep the University and its legislation contemporary. Mark Silverman, commuter I believe the priorities of the Senate should be to provide responsible representation of all students. In the past I have seen, much too often, the interests of commuter students as well as other minority groups disregarded by one Student Assembly after another. The Senate should now have the opportunity to correct it With the mandatory placement of six commuters on the Senate, I am sure that they will be heard if the right people are chosen. Steve Milligram, commuter The priorities of the Senate should be advocation of students’ rights and not being an elitist body simply serving its own needs. This University is run for students, particularly the undergraduate students, the largest constituency in this school. The Senate can only be as strong as the support it gets from the student body. If we can get together, we can do anything. It is towards these ends that I am running for the Senate. Jill Siegel, commuter The students’ voice must be heard and represented. The campus is currently going through the transition between three locations and there is a lack of cohesiveness. The Student Senate should handle the problems students encounter traveling, and should try to find out what is happening on all campuses. There has also been severe budget cuts, eliminating day care and some departments. The Student Senate must take responsibilities for these problems. —continued on page 6 Research Money Available The Undergraduate Research Council is making limited research grants to SUNYAB undergraduates TO QUALIFY: You mast be an andergraduate You mast have a faculty sponsor & be registered in a 400 level indepehdent stady coarse 3.

Soon the building of more May by Paul D. Taublieb Spectrum Staff Writer OCS Offshore drilling on the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) is becoming a visible reality. Eventually the horizon of the Atlantic Ocean, from Long Island to Delaware, will bear witness to America’s latest efforts to extract oil from the earth. In compliance with the National Energy Policy ACT (NEPA) of 1969 the Interior Department has become involved in selling leases for offshore drilling on the Atlantic OCS. The seeling process is a regulated four step procedure, and the Interior Department announced three weeks ago that the first, the “Call for Nominations and Comment,” has been completed. This step outlines the general area to be considered for leasing (in this case, the OCS from the end of Long Island to Rehoboth, Delaware), and begins a Questionable data? The Interior Department sells the areas based on estimates of their potential yield. These estimates, however, are often vague and questionable, since the Interior Department relies on the oil companies to supply seismic and geophysical data made prior to any exploratory drilling. This raw information is sold to the government, but the oil companies data interpretations are withheld. Thus, largely on the basis of guesswork, the Interior Department leases the land to the oil companies who .are operating with some degree of experience. The result of this is that the government deals out tracts of valuable publicly-owned land for a tiny fraction of the uneducated preliminary investigation into the probable effects of the drilling. actual worth.

Wednesday, 17 September 1975 99c • Many Patterns �Be-A-Friend Buffalo Youth Board needs volunteers for big brothers Male volunteers are needed to be Big Brothers to boys in Buffalo, according to Bob Bertone, program coordinator of the Buffalo Youth Board’s Be-A-Friend program. There are about three hundred applications pending for boys who need Big Brothers, Bertone said, and there is a special need for minority male volunteers to fill the gap. The Be-A-Friend program, attempts to find volunteers to act as an older friend for troubled boys, many of whom come from deprived backgrounds. The boy may not have a father in the home, or the father might be unable to handle his responsibilities. Often, the child's home environment may reflect itself in anti-social behavior or problems in scKool. Positive model Bertone suggested that having a “big brother" often provides a positive model for the boy to relate to and can often keep a boy who just needs some guidance from getting into trouble with school or the police. Kids tend to come to the Be-A-Friend program from several sources, said Bertone. Many come from broken homes, where they sometimes are used as pawns between warring relations, or as referrals from agencies or institutions. Sometimes, the child is referred by a school psychologist or child abuse authorities. Sometimes parents themselves request a big brother or big sister, Bertone added. He explained that many more requests for help are made on behalf of males than females, perhaps because more people worry about males with adjustment problems than about females and therefore, there is not as great a need for big sisters as for big brothers. The long view Bertone stressed, though that the most important consideration with volunteers is that they be able to work with a boy for a fairly long period of time (Be-A-Friend asks for a one year minimum commitment) and that they be here summers. Interrupting relationships formed with big brother after shorter periods of time may be harmful to the boy, and thus should be avoided, Bertone observed. Thus, there is a need for local people, rather than those who spend summers with their families elsewhere. According to an organization pamphlet, the Big Brother program tries to avoid the aura of a “professional” worker trying to “help" a child. “Just the fact that he (the professional) is there indicates the child might have a problem,” the pamphlet points out. “The volunteer, who is often much closer in age to the child, does not present this view. The ‘friend’ does not delve into the child's problems, but rather is there when the child is ready to speak about them." Screening People who apply to be volunteers do have to go through a screening process to ensure the best possible match between boy and big brother. While initial recruiting and screening of volunteers is done by Bertone, final match-up of boys and volunteers are done by Be-A-Friend founder and director Bob Moss. Be-A-Friend started in 1971 as a project of the University's Community Action Corps (CAC). but has since had most of its funding taken over by the Buffalo Youth Board. However. CAC still provides some help and money, as well as use of space in their office. Bertone requests that any student interested in volunteering for the Be-A-Friend program contact him at the CAC office, 345 Norton, or call him there at 831-3609.

Urban Studies offers courses to student body The College of Urban Studies, with its diversified staff of judges, police, lawyers, urban planners, and politicians, provides students with an opportunity to play an active role in urban affairs. Along with faculty from various University departments, the unique professional helps students analyze the realities of urban problems with which they have dealt. ■'The professionals can offer extensive practical knowledge to the student, which cannot be book-learned," said Robert Paaswell, the College's Chief Administrative Officer. People that include the Chief Investigator into the Western New York nursing home scandals and the Buffalo Police Chief of Homocide. allow students to see, first hand, the problems of crime in our communities, he added. Administration of justice Hoi example, one course. "Decision-Making in the Police Judicial Correctional System (PJC)" explains how critical decisions to arrest, prosecute, and sentence are made. The class also defends real criminals hy writing a "pre-sentence memorandum," the only document a judge sees before coming to a final decision in the case of a person who is serving probation on another sentence. In this capacity, the students do a service to the community while learning about the administration of justice. Other areas which are covered in the urban studies curriculum include urban law. justice, politics, city design, social structure and dynamics, environmental psychology, social analysis, and research. New focus A new locus of interest in the College is the placement of students into city government positions. Students may still register for a four-credit internship for one of several research and development or administrative posts. It is anticipated that after successful completion of an internship, the student may be added to the city payroll The Citizens Advisory Committee of Buffalo, which draws up proposals for revenue sharing and serves as a consultant to the Mayor, is one of many city political organizations which have space available for student staffing. "Buffalo is starving for young people with good ideas,” said Steve Schwartz, co-ordinator of the internship program. Through this kind of program, it is hoped that University students will help to improve the city government at the same lime they enjoy an active, challenging role in urban affairs in Buffalo.

A solution for NYC To the Editor the bomb nears the final stages of development, the tests could be explained away as “brownouts.” No one would question it. Finally the day would come when Mayor Beame could send a telegram to Governor Carey, with a message something like this; WE HAVE BOMB AIMED AT GOVERNOR’S MANSION / SEND THREE BILLION BY SUNDAY OR ELSE. ABE. The Governor would know immediately that the telegram was not a hoax, that it had to be from 15 words, right on the nose. Mayor Beame Carey would take the problem directly to Washington, and from then on it would be smooth sailing for New York. If the Capitol agreed with the Governor, Beame would receive enough federal funds to put the city on its feet again. And if Washington should turn Carey down, all Beame would have to do is threaten to turn his bomb on the Vice President’s $35,000 Max Ernst bed. He’s have a preliminary New York City Mayor Abraham Beame has been his city out of the financial hole that it’s currently in. He must be receiving many types of suggestions on how to get the city going again. We would like to suggest something a little different a bit drastic, perhaps, but the way things are going, a drastic solution may turn out to be the most effective one for New York. Several smaller nations are gaining the potential to build nuclear weapons. Whenever it seems likely that the “nuclear club” may get a new member, the United States takes special note; often, we send large amounts of foreign aid to these nations, just to make sure they stay on our side. If New York City built its own bomb, secretly, and then approached Washington, it would certainly have a better chance at the bargaining table. New York has the potential to accomplish a second Manhattan Project in secret. The Statue of Liberty would be an ideal location for a nuclear plant; all the city would have to do is close it off to all visitors, and claim that it was under repairs. As trying everything to get On the second anniversary of the right-wing coup in Chile, one can hardly be indifferent to the steadily mounting evidence implicating our government, the CIA and the multi-national corporations, such as ITT, in the overthrow of the democratically-elected government of Salvadore Allende. Our nations major newspapers and television stations, Senate hearings and statements of our government leaders, have all confirmed the reports that citizens committees, such as the National Coordinating Center for Solidarity key to the Federal Treasury in the next morning’s with Chile and the Buffalo Committee for Chilean mail. Democracy, documented much earlier. There is no longer Helen A.

The result is that a handful of wealthy corporate owners have increased their wealth and power, while the majority of Chileans have sunk into exteme poverty. It should be clear: when a nation's production is carried out under a system of private ownership for private profit, the needs and interests of the majority are compromised. While we have growing problems in our own country which must be attended to, we must also lend a hand to the Chilean people. We must press Congress to stop all aid to the Chilean government, and urge the United Nations to refuse to recognize the Chilean rulers, as long as they continue to violate the rights and lives of the Chilean people.

In May of this year, M&T Bank instituted a 50 cent per month service charge, in addition to the regular 15 cents per check, without notifying its student clientele An inquiry by a friend who lives outside of Buffalo in the summer, and who was not notified of the charge, brought the following response from the bank: student addresses generally unclear; however, the charge to date are can be reversed.

All deposits can be made by mail. By opening a saving account at a savings bank (such as Brie Federal across the street), one can obtain petty cash when needed. Fifteen cents per check is a substantial charge, but an unannounced service charge imposed right before a large block of the bank’s clientele leaves for the season is intolerable. I think it important that the student body be made aware of this occurrence and the alternatives open to it, so that a student may judge for himself whether M&T deserves to keep his money. Peter Seirup Gray on gray It seems that only the negative aspects about are publicized 1 must admit that these gloomy thoughts were trotting through my mind before going out on the scene and doing my own research. This is how it went: As soon as I arrived at Ellicott I was overwhelmed by crowds of sullen faces slowly rising to their feet to enter the bus 1 was leaving. 1 was perplexed so I asked one of the slowest of the sullen why this atmosphere of sadness. Immediately his face lit up, and very convincingly told me the why of it all. “The bus stop is one of the finest places on campus,” he said. “It’s always a very sad moment in my day when I have to leave.” I really couldn’t see why. He looked at me as if I were bizarre and said, “Come on, man, look around. Can’t you see that this is one of the finest sites on campus? Look at the subtle interplay of gray on gray. This is certainly one of the finest examples of that grand American tradition, bus stop architecture.” I was amazed at his quasi-visionary perception. Realizing that he must be very artistically aware, I questioned him further on the architecture of Ellicott Wednesday, 17 September 1975 Leonhard M. Hoeglmeier Sneaky Charge To the Editor The Spectrum Sour Grapes? Hell, no But Campus Security made up the damn rule, and I don’t think it’s fair for them to enforce the rule, if only half of it is actually being executed. And I’ll bet I’m not the only one who feels this way!! — But that’s not what really ticks me off. It’s the fact that an extremely large amount of cars are parked in student lots without parking stickers. Parked in lots for students’ cars with stickers!! While looking for spaces in these lots 1 see many disgruntled drivers with stickers also looking for spaces, and looking with anger at the many cars Ellicott complex. With an air of supreme sell importance he answered, “Form follows Function that is the only mystery.” It sure was a mystery to me. He said, “Come on I’ll show you what I mean. We went down the main corridor of Fillmore Quad. No sooner had we stopped in front of that lounge so reminiscent of a brewery by its pronounced odor and sticky seats that two girls came up to us and asked us if by any chance we knew where Fillmore 75 might be? After a few minutes of mutual apologies we all decided it might be easier to wander about, which is what everyone else seemed to be doing. We walked together for several hours seemingly without ever retracing our steps, talking about the function of school. We all agreed that what was most important was going to a minimum of classes, having the most convincing excuses. The natural corollary to this is to stay in a perpetual state of amazement at the colors, forms and shapes around. A long round of applause and wild cheer for Ellicott followed. Ellicott makes it so easy to be a regular lazy student. I really don’t understand how architects can be so in tune.

CA) OUR 6\jOC\cP Jpjf u-W uest Opinion by Elaine Levinstein By midnight, the mood is “euphoric.” The bathrooms are filled with freshman girls retching, some of the “lucky I’d like to start a revolution and am seeking out volunteers to assist me. My purpose: to extinguish beer blasts and the so-called heavy “pot parties” from the campus and other New York universities. (I’m already doubting whether to sign my name to this.) ones” have embarked upon intimate sexual encounters, and others, half dazed and red-eyed, return to their rooms and “fall out,” exhausted from all the “fun” they’ve had. They formulate quickly their opinions about the success of detrimental to students My reason they emotionally, physically and damage one’s self-image. Being a transfer student from SUNY at Brockport has produced some difficult encounters during this past week, but my frustrations reached a peak when I had my first chance to*meet my peers at a beer blast. September 5, on the 9th floor of Clement Hall. I was mortified at first, feeling as if I had never transferred and was still sitting in Brockport with some guy next to me asking the same are .— stimulating question . . . um (gulps beer nervously and fidgets with cigarette) . . . where you from? . . duh . . . um . . wanna go get stoned? . . uh , . . duh . . um . . . (gulps beer again and eventually gets up to get another drink). The music is made louder to prevent talking, an old earth custom used by people in the 1960’s. Duh . . . the party, in preparation for the next day’s storytelling to some unlucky friend or roommate who couldn’t go. I feel this type of partying produces negative effects, enhances peer pressure, increases the necessity for artificial stimulants to communicate effectively with the opposite sex, stifles individuality and creates an atmosphere resistant to a higher level of communication which is perhaps more frightening, but at the same time more fulfilling. Perhaps the most appropriate statement I heard that night came after being casually introduced to someone. “What’s your name?” I asked. He replied jokingly, “I have none.” He was right because in that environment he didn’t have any name. I am not against marijuana smoking or alcohol and dabble occasionally in both. But the state of bliss that arises from five or six beers and a few joints seems to be often replacing something that could possibly result in a an experience that would more beautiful and real time give an individual more security and happiness than the best ounce of pot in the world. My alternative to college partying is smaller groups of individuals, less emphasis on artificial stimulants, more sincere attempts at communication with people, and softer ... music that is conducive to talking, not sitting glassy-eyed with mouth hanging open and nothing coming out. We, as students, and as people are capable of doing better than that. I don’t think everybody is having the great time they claim to be having in what i label the “partying facade.” I’m sure many are tired of the apathetic and bored attitudes people have towards each other, a state of mind that others in our “hip generation” have cleverly labeled being mellow. I say, “Let’s revolt.” Blow the lid off. Just once, in between your fidgeting cigarette, marijuana, beer and the infamous “munchies,” the next time someone asks, “What’s your name?”, tell him, “I have none.” Maybe you’ll start a good conversation and wake up the next day without a hangover and maybe a few less hang-ups. watch out for “Be careful crossing streets he polite to the the school buses teachers on the picket line ..." . . . ... Don’t blame the RAs To the Editor I agree with Herman Chang’s letter of September 10, for 1 too hope something will be done. Not necessarily with single Resident Advisors (R.A.’s) in double rooms, but with people who have the audacity to suggest that this year’s housing problems are a result of some R.A.’s being assigned double rooms. If having some R.A.’s occupying double rooms is the reason for the shortage of dormitory spaces, as Mr. Chang would have us believe, the solution to this problem is quite simple. With the recent cuts in the custodial and maintenance staffs, there are many empty janitor closets available. So we can move the R.A.’s in double rooms in the janitor closets. This will open up many spaces. But let’s not stop here the R.A.’s in single rooms can take over the storage rooms. (They can’t be too much smaller than my room, for I still haven’t figured out how my bed is going to fit in.) And of course let’s not forget the Head Residents. If we can talk them into moving into the boiler rooms or onto the loading docks we should be able to easily fit 10 or 12 people into their apartments. And lastly, let’s not forget the staff members in the Area Desks and the Central Housing Office. If these people can be moved into Building 7 of - Harhlork is on Wilkeson, (has anyone seen Building 7 yet?), these offices can be converted into Barracks, Regiments can be formed and the Senior R.A.’s can hold close order drill on Saturday mornings. With these switches, I’m sure all of the housing problems will be solved. As an R.A. who does not have a double room, who has experienced the pains of occupying a new building such as Wilkeson, and has had to live with the loss of phone compensation, cutbacks in custodial services and innumerable hassles due to the abundant red which characterizes this tape University, 1 resent the insinuation that myself or my fellow staff members are the reason why more people cannot have University housing. If people such as Mr. Chang believe that the residential staffs accommodations are responsible for the lack of available on-campus housing, I suggest they talk to any Housing staff member who knows that bureaucratic bungling, computer errors and the students' failure to return their housing contracts on time are the real reasons why there is a shortage of housing. As for Mr. Chang, may he have a long and prosperous wait on the housing waiting list. Michael Ciarimboli R.A. Wilkeson Bid. 3 Rm. 208 vitiation Wednesday, 17 September 1975 The Spectrum .

Read, among other things, Seven Arrows. - - - by lack Anderson with Joe Spear The recent attempt to assassinate President WASHINGTON Ford has thrown the spotlight on a secret prison society called the “Aryan Brotherhood,” an all-white cult of 200 California prison inmates. Investigators believe that th? “Brotherhood” was used to pass messages from convicted mas murderer Charles Manson to Lynette “Squeaky” Fromme, the Manson disciple who pointed a loaded .45 caliber pistol at Ford. Our sourches emphasize that there is no hafd evidence of a Brotherhood-Manson-Fromme conspiracy to kill the President. Nevertheless, an official investigation of Jhe Aryan Brotherhood has been launched. At this point, little is known about the mysterious organization, which seems to espouse a nebulous, neo-Nazi philosophy. California prison authorities describe the group as “dedicated largely to racism but also involved in hoodlum activities, including murder contracts.” The Aryan Brotherhood, officials believe, has been responsible for at least a dozen murders behind California prison walls. Charles Manson’s association with the Brotherhood puzzles penal authorities. They share much the same philosophy. Manson publicly proclaims his love for blacks but privately derides them as “niggers.” He has also expressed admiration for Adolf Hitler who, Manson once said, “had the best answer to everything.” v. For a while, apparently, the group protected Manson from other inmates. In return, he instructed the girls in his “family” to provide sexual favors to Brotherhood members who were released. Now, however, Manson is said to fear the Brotherhood wants to kill him. “As near as we can understand,” a San Quentin official told us, “he’s on the outs with them now. The Aryan Brotherhood could be trying to squeeze Manson out of the picture and take over his family.” According to our sources, members of the Aryan Brotherhood have been visiting “Squeaky” Fromme upon their release from prison. She, in turn, has been trying to use them to contact Manson. These are the pieces of the puzzle authorities have assembled so far. It remains to be seen whether the final picture will depict a conspiracy to kill the President. Aid Fray: Concerned American Jews have cautioned Israeli officials to soft pedal their requests for UJS. aid. Too much pressure, the Jewish advisers fear, could create a backlash. Americans may start questioning, for example, why they should send Israel more than $3 billion but refuse to save New York City from economic collapse. Or they may ask why they should pay for the oil that Israel buys from Iran at the same time that their own gas prices are going up. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger has suggested softly on Capitol Hill, meanwhile, that Congress cannot grant billions in military aid to Israel and turn down the request of Jordan’s King Hussein, a staunch American friend, for a Hawk missile antiaircraft system. Egypt’s President Sadat has also become pro-American. And he has quietly sounded out Kissinger for $250 million in economic aid and favorable terms for the purchase of up to $1 billion in arms. Sadat is eager, for example, to refit his Soviet-made air force for American-made parts. It looks as if the next Arab-Israeli showdown may occur on Capitol Hill. Economic Sabotage: The economic recovery of the industrial West could be sabotaged by another disastrous oil price increase. We have checked the secret intelligence reports, therefore, to find out whether an increase is likely. We have also spoken to several leading Arab oilmen. All the oil producing countries, except Saudi Arabia, are pressing for a price hike. The Saudis alone are trying to delay the increase, at least until the end of the year. Seven of the oil countries, led by Algeria and Kuwait, want a drastic increase of $2 per barrel on October 1. They contend that a $2 adjustment is necessary to keep up with inflation. The Shah of Iran, meanwhile, has already called for a hefty price boost. Some of the oil countries would accept a more moderate, $l-per-barrel increase. But there is no chance, according to our sources, that the disagreement will break up in the oil cartel. Their united stand has brought them fabulous profits. So they are expected to reach a compromise. Most likely, they will raise prices at least $ 1 per barrel on October I. This will mean higher gas prices and a slower economic recovery. Puddle Factory; Several years ago, we coined the phrase “Puddle Factory” as a synonym for the federal bureaucracy. As time passes, the term grows more appropriate. To wit: On May 6, 1975, President Ford called on “all federal civilian and military personnel” to economize. At the Agriculture Department, Secretary Earl Butz passed on the Presidential plea with a cover memo of his own. All his employes, he said, were expected “to reduce Government costs.” Six days later, the Department’s Farmer Cooperative Service distributed another memo. “The balloting is over, the votes have been counted,” it stated, “and all necessary clearances have been obtained we will install Muzak and give it a try.” Several weeks ago, the Department of Transportation gave the state of California half a million dollars to study motorcycle safety. Four days later, another Transportation office started proceedings to block all federal funds to California. The reason: the state has no law requiring motorcycle riders to wear helmets. - Committees will be established — — —■ - CF 409 (Reg.

During the week off, Bulls’ coach Pat McClain revamped the team’s lineup, based on the results of intra-squad matches. There were several surprises, but the biggest and most important was Bill Cole. A transfer from Fredonia, Cole was awarded the third singles spot based on his play during the past week, despite the fact that Cole felt he played below par. Against Oneonta, Cole had the easiest win of any of the Bulls, 6-3, 6-1. Iron man “I wasn’t nervous at all,” Cole said about his debut for Buffalo. “I was really psyched. It was just one of those things where everything came together for the match. The amazing thing was I didn’t even have to come to the net.” “The difference in the match was Bill playing third singles,” said McClain. He indicated that Cole might still improve, now that he’s facing better competition. The other big change for the Bulls came when the top two players, Randy Murphy and Rich- Abbott, switched positions in the lineup. Murphy, playing first singles for the first time, indicated that he was nervous. “1 had heard a lot of talk about the guy I was playing,” he said. “But once I got out there I settled down.” Nevertheless, Murphy had trouble with his net play, which probably cost him the match to Oneonta’s Paul VanderSommen. Meanwhile, Abbott, playing second singles, won the first set against Scott Leyton but then found himself on the short end of a 4-1 score in the second set. But he came back to win the next five games and the match. “I started hitting the ball a lot harder, and 1 forgot about the wind,” he said. Buffalo’s Lenny Gross at fifth singles, pulled off a similar comeback in the third set of his match with Mitch Cohen. Down 3-1 and 40-love, Gross won the game and the next four, and at the end of singles j THE FIRST MEETING OF THE STUDENT AFFAIRS TASK FORCE will be Thursday, Sept. 18 at 3:00 pm (Tomorrow) This is the easiest way to get elected to the Student Senate.

TODAY, WED. Sept. 17 139 Brooklane Dr. additional information. Wesley Foundation by John H. Reiss Staff Writer Opening the fall season on a cool and blustery day, the baseball Bulls split a doubleheader with Oneonta at Peelle Field, Saturday. Buffalo took the first game of the twin bill 7-2 before being shut out in the night cap, 3-0. Following the impressive opener, the Bulls were clearly out-classed by Oneonta pitcher Jim Hunter. Hunter displayed an excellent curveball along with a consistent fastball. Mixing up his pitches well. Hunter kept the Bulls hitters offstride and guessing. Buffalo managed only three hits off the sly righthander and was unable to get a man past second base. Wild Bull Jim Niewcyck, Buffalo’s starter and loser, was equally difficult to hit when he was able to get his pitches over the plate. In four innings of work, Niewcyck struck out eight while the Oneonta hitters were unable to hit his fastball. However, in the second inning, Niewcyck ran into big control problems. He walked five men, allowing Oneonta to score two runs, enough to win the game without the benefit of a hit. The Bulls were more successful at getting hits and scoring runs in the first game. Second baseman Larry Whelau drove Buffalo’s first two runs with a two out, bases loaded single in the second. Designated hitter John Buszka also drove in two runs with a home run into the parking lot beyond rightfield. Ruszka added two more hits to complete his perfect day at the plate. Pitcher Bill Casbolt was very impressive on the mound for Buffalo, allowing only two hits in five innings while getting credit for the win. Buszka finished up for Casbolt, pitching two shutout Problems?

McClain later observed that the top six singles players were pretty much set, although their order might still change. The main change would be in the remaining doubles teams, as the Bulls looked ahead to today’s match at Niagara, which will be Buffalo’s first Big Four conference match. o z > Buszka has created a problem for coach Bill Monkarsh although it’s the kind of problem coaches enjoy having. Buszka has always been one of the stars of the Bulls’ pitching staff, but as of late, has blossomed into a dangerous hitter. Due to the injury to outfielder Marc Scarcello, Buszka could become Buffalo’s regular rightfielder. However, he is needed as a starting pitcher and there is a question as to whether or not he will be able to perform both duties simultaneously. It is feared that a batting slump could affect his pitching adversely, so for the present, his pitching abilities will be stressed. Wednesday, 17 September 1975 . The Spectrum .

Today> even so-called "non-technical" courses (psych, soc, bus ad, to name 3) require a vaiir ety of technical calculations—complicated calculations that become a whole lot easier when you have a powerful pocket calculator. Not surprisingly, there are quite a few such calculators around, but ours stand apart, and ahead. We started it all when we introduced the world’s first scientific pocket calculator back in 1972, and we’ve shown the way ever since: The calculators you see here are our newest, the first of our second generation. Both offeryou technology you probably won’t find in compete itive calculators for some time to come, if ever. Our HP-21 performs all arithmetic, log and trig calculations, including rectangular/polar conversions and common antilog evaluations. i display is fully formatted, so you can choose between fixed decimal and scientific notation. Our HP-25 does all that—and much, much more. It's programmable, which means it can solve automatically the countless repetitive problems every science and engineering student \ faces. With an HP-25, you enter the keystrokes neces’sary to solve the problem only once. Thereafter, you just enter the variables and press the Run/Stop key for an almost instant answer accurate to MO digits. Before you invest in a lesser machine, by all means-do two things: ask your instructors about the calculations their courses require; and see for yourself how effortlessly our calculators handle them. Both the HP-21 and HP-25 are almost certainly on display at your bookstore. If not, call us, toll-free, at 800-538-7932 (in Calif. 800-6<>2-9862) for the name of an HP dealer near you.

Breslin acknowledged the introductory applause in his typical throw-away manner. “I’m really pleased with the size of this crowd and the reception you’ve given me. It must be because of-one of two things,” he said. “Either I’m more popular than I thought, or there’s nothing to do in Buffalo. I think it must be that there’s nothing else to do.” . NYC and guns From there he gave a brief background of his life, but the two most prominent subjects on his mind were New York City and the issue of gun control. He related the lack of gun control measures to the assassinations of recent years and the many senseless killings which -i. v occur everyday- 1* In his opening remarks, Breslin described a talk he had with a Boston Globe reporter just before leaving Boston for his appearance here. The reporter, who had just returned from New Hampshire where he was covering Pr««ident Ford’s current campaign swing through that state, observed that Ford wore a bullet-proof vest at all of his appearances. And yet, as Breslin pointed out, Ford is against gun control legislation. -- v > This has effectively killed any hope of N.Y.C. becoming the 51st state, he said. He felt there was a time when Mayor Abe Beame could have taken some action to force federal response to the city’s financial problems, but that he let the opportunity pass by. “Early last spring,” Breslin said, “when you could see the financial collapse coming, I went to Abe [Beame] and said, ‘Abe, don’t send the tax receipts down to Washington, force the issue.’ I was trying to get him to organize a tax revolt,” he added. ' “But Abe said no to the idea,” Breslin continued. “He wanted to try and work it out through the budget, balance the books and so forth. So he ran around with the book', talking to bankers, trying to get the whole thing together. And eventually he got his head handed to him. And now Abe’s finished politically. He missed his chance,” he added. Moral As a result of the new tie with the state government, Breslin felt N.Y.C. would be “financially moral, but socially immoral.” He recalled his unsuccessful campaign for President of the City Council along with Norman Mailer, for N.Y.C. Mayor, which he characterized as an “exercise of errors.” some of the questions he He recalled Haile and ere asked various at Right to arms Later, during the question and answer session, Breslin was asked about the feasibility of striking from the U.S. Constitution' the amendment that guarantees the right of all citizens to bear arms. Breslin came down hard on this question. In the first place, he said he strongly rejects the idea of any attempted change in the Constitution because it might set a precedent for changing other rights, such as freed om of speech. Secondly, Breslin said he has no complaint about a man keeping a shotgun “under his bed or in his house if it makes him feel safer.” “I’m not afraid of sitting in a bar somewhere and seeing a guy walk in with a shotgun under his coat. 1 mean, that just isn’t going to happen very often,” he admitted. Hand guns criticized “But hand guns are another thing. Anybody could be carrying one and you’d have no way of knowing it,” he said. “There is absolutely no reason for any citizen of the U.S. to own a hand gun, except police officers,” he insisted. That statement drew the greatest applause of the evening, and was perhaps Breslin’s most serious point. No jokes, no funny anecdotes, but a firm belief Breslin apparently feels is one of the most crucial current issues. As for New York City, Breslin feels the “Big Apple” has “sold its soul” to the state government with the passage of the recent $2.3 billion aid package. With all the controls that are tied in to the package, he said, the Governor has become the true mayor of N.Y.C. appearances, and the type of answers they would give. One of their main concerns was to put the “real English language into a political campaign.” ‘Urban Man' The two men made an appearance at Brooklyn College where Mailer delivered what Breslin called “a speech about The ‘Urban Man’,” and attempted to develop some deep social issues. However, all of a sudden Breslin said, “some kid from Queens stood up in the back of the room and said, ‘Mr. Mailer, last year snowstorm out in Queens we had a and Mayor didn’t remove the snow. My father Couldn’t even get his car out of the driveway. What would you do about Lindsay that?’ ” ‘Piss on it’ Mailer considered the question for a minute and then responded, “Sir, I’d piss on it.” campaign another appearance, At Breslin recounted, “some kid who was all who hair I mean just really long hair - - stood up and complained that ‘every time I walk down the street the police hit me. They beat me up. For no reason they just hit me. Why?’ Breslin indicated that Mailer turned to him and said, “I’m Irish, I’m Catholic, I’d hit him too.” “These sort of answers didn’t sit well with many people,” Breslin continued, “and as a result, we ran into a great deal of friction at some appearances. In fact, at one place the people showed up in the front row with attack dogs and the general feeling we got from that audience was that ‘if these communist bastards say fuck once, we’ll turn the dogs on them’.” ” Image miseries “Personal deportment and the image we projected was definitely our greatest problem in the campaign because it really obscured what we were trying to say," he analyzed. ■Some of the questions students asked were ones concerned with the assassinations of Martin Luther following his speech King, John Kennedy and Robert Kennedy, and the re-opening of investigations into those killings. Breslin said he thought the King assassination was “definitely a conspiracy,” and that there were still many unanswered questions concerning the killing. As for the death of Robert Kennedy, Breslin, who was in the room when he was shot, was “convinced it was just the action of one sick man with a gun. That case is closed.” ‘Rocky; No way’ Asked if he thought Vice President Nfelson Rockefeller would be the next President, Breslin responded with a firm, “no way.” The student questioner said he was sure Rocky would become President, so following a brief debate, Breslin finally to wager against Rocky’s proposed chances. Breslin remained to answer more questions and sign autographs for about 15 minutes after the program officially ended. He seemed willing to stay all night, provided the chairs were comfortable, drinks were available, and interesting questions were to be discussed. �Jack Kemp Graduate exams are questioned for validity -Repeal ofpap raise urged by Pat Quinlivan by Jacqui Schock Spectrum City Editor Staff Writer Many people have questioned the validity of using standardized tests as a criterion for admittance into graduate schools. The Miller Analogies Test (MAT) and the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) do not accomplish what they were intended to do, according to an article by John L. Nagi, Chairman of the Electrical Technology and Electrical Construction and Maintenance curricula at Hudson Valley Community College in Troy, N.Y. “For years,” notes Nagi, a 1974 recipient of a doctorate in Educational Administration, “the MAT and GRE have been used as one of the factors which determine whether or not a student should be admitted to many graduate programs. The decision for acceptance or nonacceptance is sometimes predicated on the student's success on those Congressman- Jack Kemp (R., N.Y.) has a bill which would repeat the congressional pay raise that was passed by the House July 29. said that after meeting with his Kemp constituents over the month-long summer recess, he introduced Other means He stressed that many other factors enter into whether or not the student will succeed in graduate studies. “These examinations just are not valid predictors. Thus, we must attempt to find other means of evaluating an applicant’s records and use those new means as part of the basis for granting admission to graduate programs,” he concluded. Nagi’s article, published in the journal Educational and Psychological Measurement during the summer, was entitled “Predictive Validity of the Graduate Record Examination and the Miller Analogies Test.” The article was the result of a study conducted on 63 graduate students at the State University at Albany. responsibility and discipline.” Invalid predictors The study was intended to determine whether the scores on the GRE’s and the MAT’S could accurately predict whether students in a doctoral program in Educational Administration would complete the required work. Of the 63 students observed, 33 received their PhD’s but 30 did not finish the program. Nagi’s results bear out earlier studies, which indicated that GRE’s and MAT’S are not substantial predictors of program completion. Jerome Fink, pre-Law Advisor at the State University at Buffalo, said he has mixed feelings about the Law School Admission Test (LSAT). “There are some people even with high grade point averages Jack Kemp who just don’t do well on these types of standardized exams. At best of Western New the York people they are a guide for law schools since they deal with such a large “found number of applicants. The test does not measure motivation, drive or overwhelmingly opposed to the increase. The pay raise, which only applies to members of self discipline.” Milli Clark, assistant professor of English, stated that the GRE’s Congress, and not to any other federal employees, “can reflect a student who is widely read in English literature, but it is passed the,House by a single vote, 214 to 213. It has for an undergraduate to have that wide a coverage of the been noted that only eight members failed to vote subject. Since the test is slanted in a certain area of English Literature each time, it is pure coincidence if the strength of the student corresponds to the test’s bias.” She said, “the Educational Testing Service is a money-making, self-perpetuating organization. They have become another educational entity; they are an important being out there which makes judgements and we, unfortunately have their propaganda to face."

Kemp’s proposal would nullify pay increases, but not those for the elected officials that were voted for other federal employees. In a news release, Kemp said, “The public has a right to be skeptical of legislators who say federal spending must be cut but who do not adhere to budget protection standards when their personal paychecks are involved.” “Legislators,” he pointed out, “are the only group in American society able to so easily determine how much they can increase their annual income.

According to the Buffalo Committee for, Chilean Democracy, sponsor of the protest, the Mentholatum Company “substantially increased its investment” in Chile after the right-wing military take-over disposed the democratically-elected Popular Unity government, headed by Salvadore Allendc, indicating tacit support for the new government. Since taking power two years ago. General Pinochet and his military junta, have imposed bloody and repressive dictatorship in Chile, where the Chilean Congress, trade unions and student organizations were outlawed, and tens of thousands were arrested, tortured or murdered, the Buffalo Committee charged. The Committee explained that these severe violations of human rights moved many nations in Europe, Asia and the America’s, including the United States Congress, to condemn the acts and to withdraw aid to the Pinochet regime. 'Good business Though the Chilean economy is in very serious condition, with inflation at 600 through democratic People or profits? While admitting that perhaps violations of human rights had taken place in Chile, and that the CIA may have been involved in .the coup, Hyde explained that “all the people that I've talked to in Chile” think that the military would have taken over anyway.

George President of Hyde, Mentholatum, said in a telephone interview with The Spectrum that Mentholatum had interests in Chile “for 70 years," and that the increased investment was just “good business.” Hyde said his company employed only “15 people" in Chile, and , claimed that this facilitiy wasn’t making that much money now. When asked if he was aware of the charges that human rights and democratic freedoms were being violated by the present government, Hyde remarked that the “communists” were making an issue of this because they lost out. “Chile was run by the communists,” he said, and the overturning of the Allende government was a “great blow to the communist’s pride” since it was the “first time communists The Committee explained that after the coup, f’.e junta returned many of the nationalized factories to their foreign owers, (though Mentholatum was not nationalized under Allende, according to Hyde). Since the trade unions were outlawed, many companies made additional investments as they saw a chance to increase their profits. “While the Mentholatum Company maintains its profitable relation in Chile, the military dictatorship continues to terrorize the population,” the Committee believes. Reading and writing skills of college students on decline by Brett Kline Feature Editor Reading comprehension levels and writing skills of college students today have declined over the past two years, according to recent figures published in reports and across the newspapers country. In the words of many incoming educators, college freshmen and those college already enrolled in college are not as well prepared to deal with an academic learning situation as were their predecessors. While admittedly a very general statement, it can nevertheless be supported by a veritable barrage of facts and figures. To begin with, the College Entrance (CEEB) Board Examination reported that the average test scores of 1975 high school graduates on Scholastic Aptitude Tests (SAT’s) took the biggest drop since 1 964. Test scores drop In 1975, the average scores for the verbal test dropped ten points and those for the math test were down eight points. The tests are scored on a 200 to 800 point basis. In 1964, the average scores were 478 for verbal ability and 502 for mathematical ability. The latest averages were 434 in the verbal and 472 in the math. The CEEB noted that scores in Achievement Tests, separate gerterally taken by students with particular interest or skill in individual fields, have also dropped. There are various explanations for this drop in test scores. Sam director of the McCandless, testing Cl I B’s admissions that the program. suggests “academic abilities" of high school students in general have apparently declined. Bernard McK en n a of the National Education Association, the nation’s largest teacher however, organization, argues, that the tests are not relevant to what is being taught in school and that students are increasingly aware of this As a result, it is likely that standardized tests are no longer being taken as seriously by students as they were ten years ago. Teachers and administrators have become increasingly critical of the tests, especially since they Our down filled jackets and parkas will keep your body snug winter, and their low through prices the will warm your heart Get the real McCoy, Pea Coats!

Behavior modification is based on the theory Divide and conquer that humans can be “programmed" to behave in a The new concept of behavior modification is to certain way through system of rewards and punishments. This process goes on every day and is rarely conscious, Deutsch explained. Although not intrinsically bad, he believes the potential for abusing this science is enormous and its use is to spread into schools and other beginning institutions, as well as prisons. Prisons and police are the agents of oppression in the poor and Third World communities, Deutsch explained. These communities are in a sense “colonies” of the rest of society. Their cultures and economies depend upon outside capital to survive and the police are the “occupying army” of the outside society, he said. The poor and minorities in the ghettos rebel against a system in which they see sctmuch wealth yet are unable to attain it by legal means. Crime is the natural outlet for these feelings of frustration, he explained, and the threat of prison is an attempt to deter crime. a locus on a system of rewards rather than punishments. Deulch explained. Those inmates who “behave themselves" are rewarded by tokens which can buy privileges. This practice places great strain confinement. Solitary confinement, or “the box,” is the practice of keeping inmates in their cells 24 hours a day with no stimulation at all Sometimes the walls are even painted white and they are soundproof. This method is used to isolate and break down those inmates who do not accept the authorities of the institution, Deutsch said. Pointing to an experiment that was tried in Springville, Missouri in 1472, he said inmates were transferred involuntarily to a prison where a punishment system of four tiers was set up, each progressively better than the next. Conditions were unbearable at the first stage and the inmates resisted any attempt to make the program work. A court order soon closed the project down. Another pioneer project is currently being conducted in Marion, Illinois. The men are kept A number of students who engaged the services of Campus Transport, Inc., fo move their belonging from Long Island to Buffalo, have charged that the company did not deliver some of their luggage. Campus Transport, Inc. is a privately operated moving company that transports student luggage between the two regions for a reasonable fee. Trunks, duffel bags and boxes were reportedly delivered to incorrect addresses, delivered late or lost completely. Students also complained of damages to stereos and other valuables. "In the past. State University at Buffalo students have been inconvenienced by the undependable and irresponsible service provided Transport.” Campus according to David Brownstem, Inter-Residence Council (IRC) President. He added that there were also similar problems last year when the firm was under different by management. Last spring IRC refused to grant Campus Transport the endorsement they requested allegedly because of the company’s poor pci Iormanee record. "Campus Transport then sought the endorsement ot SASU (the Student Association of State University) who granted it out ot ignorance, Brownstein contended "Now the University must suffer the consequences." asked C ampus Transport to arrange deliveries on or before September 3 to insure “etlicient service." It also requested that the • irm station a lull-time representative on campus throughout that period In spite ot these requests, however.

But IRC claims the refund process is slow. " Recovering luggage Methods Behavior modification techniques were used in Korea and, in l c>63. at a national meeting of prison administrators, the idea was introduced, Deutsch continued. James Bennet of the Federal Bureau of Prisons started using various techniques on Moslem inmates who caused disciplinary problems. Many types of programs were started, most concentrating on punishment to prevent unwanted behavior. The use of psychosurgery and chemicals such as prolyxin and thorzyne, both heavy depressants, was not uncommon, he said. In the late I960’s these practices were exposed and their use was prohibited. Although librium and thorium are still used, the most common method of punishment is now solitary « Most ol the responsibility for recovery of losses rests with Michele Smith, Student Association (SA) President. She is currently trying to locate missing items and organize some kind of student insurance. "All we can do now is try to uncover and track down each case, one be one," Smith explained SASl Vice President Slu Haynwoods is investigating the situatio anti has discovered that a tew trunks were wrongly delivered to othe Stale University campuses.

"In the past we have serviced several other branches of the SUNY system, and all of these deliveries have run smoothly, Landau emphasized. Additionally, he would have preferred to handly the luggage only after the student's arrival. Landau said that “in the future, we will not make any deliveries unless we can secure a signature first, and neither will we agree to deliver luggage before the student’s scheduled arrival time.” < on the inmates, as any privilege in prison is highly prized. It also tends 'to divide the prisoners and perpetuates the ability of the administration to keep the lid on a tense situation, he said. topic Another discussed experimentation done on inmates by was various the drug manufacturers. Cosmetic and drug firms pay the prisoners a dollar a day to test their products. Federal law states that in order for this type of experimentation to occur, there must be informed consent on the part of the subject. They have yet to declare such testing to he illegal, according to Deutsch. the in discussion afterwards, Deutsch emphasized that most of the behavior modification experiments originate at universities and that concerned students should investigate what programs their schools are developing. One participant suggested that students correspond with inmates in order to break down the isolation that is an essential component of the modification Page four . The Spectrum .

The Spectrum . Page five �WHO LOST EditPrwl College illiteracy As the modern world becomes more complicated, it is of the utmost importance that we retain our ability to communicate with one another. Being able to make other people understand just what it is you want to say is an integral part of existence, yet many of our contemporaries can neither string together a coherent assemblage of sentences on paper nor organize their thoughts verbally into some intelligible form. It has been proven in numerous instances that students entering college today do not have the fundamental reading and writing skills necessary for even simple communication. Not only have the average scores on standardized exams V continued to drop steadily, but educators, themselves, admit that students read carelessly, their writing just barely surpasses elementary school levels, and their vocabulary is extremely limited. In addition, many students have problems with simple punctuation and grammar, making it a real chore for them to write the more sophisticated papers and compositions expected at the college level. •' *w<7r r; saip jack: '1 JUST S0JT APVISORS J/SAIP \Kt *r dost, saur miev. * that we must not lose our power to communicate. And it is the responsibility of concerned institutions of learning to ensure that mass "illiteracy" in this country does not become an epidemic of the 20th century. THf �WHAT QOeSTlOO?' iemi5‘ First off, a complaint. Sometime ago I bought a transverter. That’s right, a transverter. Stow your dirty mind, please. This is a gadget you plug into the cigarette lighter socket in the dashboard of your car, whereupon it proceeds to reduce the 12 volt current down to 9 volts, and this can be used to run my tape recorder. I bought the original one at Purchase Radio, on Niagara Falls Boulevard across from the Boulevard Mall. So it seemed reasonable to go .back to the same place, since some of the pieces of the misfunctioning gizmo might someday be useful in repairing the new one, or vice versa. The price tag pasted on the silly thing was $8.95, which seemed a trifle high, but what the hell a person can’t survive on FM alone. — However, being a curious soul, it was necessary for me to poke around and I I a bit. Which explore frequently results in my feeling bad in one way or fllft ■ another, and this was such (i/lLl an experience.

The second, the first stuck on price, was no doubt to conjure in a charming shade of red up visions of deficits — and was $6.50. As noted at least temporarily previously, the last price was the $8.95 paid It seems reasonably clear why they switched the price from red, to black for the price I paid. With increases like that, it should not be hard to turn a profit. 1 am at least a semi-reasonable man. If the CIA had good reason for holding onto biological warfare goodies in direct violation of a presidential order, I’ll listen. What it would take to convince me that the reason was good is a non-operable question. (Wasn’t there a line in one of those old classics about people living by the Digression sword something?). or notwithstanding, I am clear headed, just like you. We all know times are hard, and prices have to creep up. In round figures 1 can handle a $6 to $6.50 increase. This seems moderately equitable. An increase of 1/12, or about 8.5 percent 1 can handle. But $6.50 to $9.00? Hold it just a minute, folks I left my calculator somewhere. Let’s see, 2.50/6.50 5/13 38.5 percent, approximately.

Inquiring at the Student Association office I was told that there was something that they “forgot” to include in their king sized ad which in a nutshell seemed to be a gracious offer not to collect the mandatory student fee. The part that they “forgot” is a sentence or two telling who is eligible, to receive the benefits advertised therein. Based on my conversation with an employee of SA and upon the information in the waiver application, I will give an elaboration on the vagaries of this SA notice. Here it is. This announcement s for you. All you Listen financially poor students. You might not have to pay a penny of the $67.00 mandatory fee if you'only go to the 6A office (205 Norton Hall), take five - and paid for. No garbage about increased replacements, etc. can be entertained. To put it into terms that occur to me in a primary sort of way, this is the sort of thing that makes me worry less about what big government is doing to business, and worry much more about what business will do to me given the chance. Stuck again Steese. Right in the middle. The not turn record of business, even recent news of the century horror stories, make it hard to hear the pious claims of moral dependability very clearly. - The need for unions, and the battles the entrenched unions fought, were great and needful.

There are times in such company when 1 feel like King Kong at a DAR tea party. 1 have this classic middle child syndrome. I try to compromise and take other people into account. Perhaps, in truth, •I do it too much, and wind up sometimes getting angry at myself or other people when it could have been avoided. But it is very hard for me to see things getting better when the opposite belief is taken too far. Which leads me to an ultimate stuck in the middle point, how in hell do we balance the needs of the individuals, in all their wonderful diffusion and differences? How do we give everybody a fair share of the goodies when some people have so much more than others? Tom Snyder of the early morning show Tomorrow? the one coming on after whoever replaced Steve Allen ah nostalgia! Anyhoo Tom Snyder showed this wonder public service announcement that no-one else shows because it is a touch controversial. It consists of a man on a bicycle, dressed in a business suit, wearing a pair of air tanks on his back, and a mask connected to these tanks over his face. He rides into a large station marked AIRCO, the attendant asks him what’ll it be, the man says regular, gets filled up, and rides away. A voice over narration goes something to the effect that it would be very strange if a group of large corporations tried to control the world’s air supply, wouldn’t it? 1 love it.

While it is hard to pinpoint the exact reasons why today's college students are not as well equipped to handle academic requirements which should, by this time, be almost second nature, much of the blame centers on the emphasis of educational institutions from grade school on up through high school. In their attempts to prepare the younger generation for an advanced, technological society, teachers are not stressing the tedious but necessary fundamentals; they have lost sight of the fact'that basic lessons in syntax and sentence structure combined with writing exercises or to translate the public speaking courses, train people mumbo-jumbo in their minds into meaningful sentences. Students who are still weak in these skills by the time they reach college should be encouraged to take advantage of lower level writing and composition courses. Partial blame also lies with the mass media and our complicated communications networks. Many people no longer read newspapers; they switch on their television sets or radios and listen to a thirty-minute capsulized version of the day's news. Many people don't write letters any more; they just pick up the receiver and dial •U0T I,'SAP mJRX). 1 oust * minutes to write some information, and give that to the secretary. $67.00 is a large amount of money and you should surely take the opportunity to keep it for your own use. Best of all none of your benefits normally obtained by the payment of the fee will be taken away. Be sure to act quickly. There is a September 30 deadline. I assume SA is fulfilling some sort of commitment by taking such a large amount of space for their announcement but they are surely shirking a moral commitment, written or implied, to adequately inform the underprivileged students of this University that they have a chance to save themselves some money. The poor students, the black students, the foreigners they are the ones least likely to be aware of opportunities to do so. SA knows this this thus a vague ad. The minorities of this courtry are poor because their pafents were poor; and their parents before them. The reason they were poor is that no one ever taught them how to manage their financial affairs properly. The poor were and are continually and callously taken advantage of. SA is not the first nor will they be the last to do so but they can only be categorized as bastards for their current attempt. - — Doughs A. Radi Page six . The Spectrum . Monday, 15 September 1975 �In all fairness To the Editor. The first two issues of this fall's The Spectrum contained articles by syndicated columnists Garry Wills and Jack Anderson. Both of these columnists can be accurately described as "liberals,” or adherents to one particular side of the American public debate.. The Spectrum, however, is a freely distributed publication meant devoted to a particular ideology or interpretation of events. Hence it would seem to be more appropriate for The Spectrum to carry articles by columnists of both of the prevalent political ideologies in our society, liberalism and conservatism. This would satisfy the most elemental demands of fairness and objectivity, and surely the individuals who comprise the campus community are mature enough to deserve being presented with both sides of the public debate so* that they can read them and decide for themselves which is correct. Richard Hoffman Quarry lot insanity; To the h.'dilor I have attended this University for the past Iwo years. In that time, a serious situation in regard to parking here has grown progressively worse. I am referring to the absolute insanity in the Quarry Lot. Due to the fact that there are no lines painted on the surface, and also to the irregular shape of the lot. people park where they feel like leaving their cars. This is fine if common sense is used in parking. However, this is rarely the case. Cars are left sitting a foot or two behind others, making it impossible to leave until the dummy arrives to move his ear. Cars are left in spots where they completely block traffic lanes, making it quite an adventure moving through the lot. Last, but not least, are the many dents which I (and I'm sure many others) have incurred because ol the careless drivers at this University. Perhaps a viable solution would be the presence of a Campus Security person to supervise parking in the morning. It seems that this would serve a greater purpose than the staking-out of the llarnman Basement lavatories. Thanks for the opportunity to express what I feel is a legitimate commuter gripe. Mark Thompson TRB it can hit Congress with half a million letters in a 72-hour notice? Birch Bayh, Democratic Senator from Indiana, at a gun control hearing where they had a display of handguns, toyed negligently with a lethal little nichel-plated snub-nosed ladies just right revolver with a barrel one inch long for a beaded handbag. It is called a bellygun in the trade. Why couldn't things be banned, he wondered? But sportsmen of the NRA have an almost fanatical feeling that registration let along outlawing of such killers would somehow compromise the farmers' favorite fall outdoor sport, hunting. The NRA publishes a monthly, the American Rifleman who gun advertising grosses $1,800,000 a year of the organization’s $10 million budget. Lee Harvey Oswald saw an item he liked listed in the February 1963 issue of the Rifleman sent a $21.45 money order under a fictitious name to the advertiser and that was all it took under the free enterprise system to change the course of history. In fact the price of killing presidents is ghoulishly low. The .44 derringer with which Booth show Lincoln couldn’t have cost more than $ I 5. estimates Robert Sherrill in his book The Saturday Night Special Guiteau paid $ 10 for the ,44 caliber second-hand revolver with which he killed Garfield (with a box of cartridges and a small penknife thrown in); Czolgosz paid $4.50 for the handgun that killed McKinley, ahd 1 have cited Oswald's expense above though he had to pay SI.50 for postage plus the cost of his post office box, “A. Hidell, P.O. Box 2915. Dallas. Texas." As for Squeaky Fromme. she apparently borrowed or stole her gun from a friend, so the cost wasn’t anything. The political rule is that if you won't take the risk of being murdered you shouldn’t run. It’s like the ethic 200 years ago about dueling. A gentleman could always be called out. We think that pretty silly today but we still expect a candidate, oi President, to expose himself in spite of ihc 40 million handguns and 135 million firearms sloshing about in the country, and to retrain from talking from a television booth, where he could spreak more conveniently and have a bigger audience. Gov. George Wallace opposed gun control; he is paralyzed from the waist down. Mr. Ford "unalterable” opposes registration (though he favors tighter controls of gunstores); he fell the breath of death on his face. I think that crime, fueled in part by handguns, is one of the most rapidly growing and explosive political issues in the country. It is readymade for a demagogue. Think of how Nixon used it to attack the Supreme Court and for “lawnorder.” Anyone who doesn't worry at growing crime is as- dangerous as Squeaky Frommc. There are signs of demoralization; crime was up 17 per cent last year, the most rapid rise in 44 years of. recording. In 15 years murders rose I0o percent, robberies by 255 percent. The courts are in a mess: 90 percent of all serious crimes are plea-bargained (criminals can plead a- lesser offense to save time). No nation will stand anarchy. Before that comes — from Washington Squeaky From me got a double whammy with her picture on the cover of both Time and Newsweek last week but three days after she tried to shoot Mr. Ford she was only on page 12 of The New York Times. A tug of the finger on a trigger of a properly loaded gun would have changed history, but addle-pated Squeaky apparently didn't know you have to pull the slide, back On an army .45 automatic to get a cartridge into the gun barrel. So the hardy President was out roaming the country again making dull speeches to selected audiences, the public was yawning again about gun control, and the nation that more than any other demands that its politicians glad-hand crowds in the flesh remains the nation that does the least to prevent them from being turned into martyrs. The President Commission on Law Enforcement under former Attorney General Kat/.ehbach made its report in I%7; it control. The National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorder under former Illinois Gov. Otto Kerner reported in l l)68. It recommended gun control. The National Commission on the Causes and Prevention of Violence under Dr. Milton Eisenhower reported in l l)6‘). It recommended gun control. The National Advisory Commission on Reform of federal Criminal Laws undei former California Gov Edmund Brown reported in I‘■>70 It recommended gun control. The Commission on Criminal Justice Standaids and Goals, undei former Delaware Gov. Russell Peterson, reported in 1074. It lecommended gun control. And so what'.’ Handguns are as easy to buy as flashlights. The Gallup poll says that two out of three Americans favor firearms registration and that ihey have favored control for more than three decades; but theie are, two and a halt million more guns manufactured each year, added to the sea ol 40 million American-owned handguns: it’s the largest unlicensed civil arsenal ol lethal weapons m the history of mankind. People who I ear ;nul dislike handguns arc buding them now because ■ they fear others who arc buying them. \iul the National Killc Association aiul the American Congress arc laughing at us.

"Perhaps we should look into this." says the National Rifle Association and Congress thoughtfully.

What to do',’ One thing to do is to read the five moldermg presidential crime reports of the last seven years. There's no easy answer, they say. But the Catzenbach. Kerner and Eisenhower reports are unanimous in linking rising statistics to social conditions, in calling prisons ‘graduate schools of crime,’ in urging faster justice, and in demanding gun controls.

These figures also point to the increasing number clinics and of abortion counseling centers. Studies have shown that the number of women who consider increased abortion acceptable substantially within the last ten years. A tremendous acceptance of abortion, for socio-economic reasons also developed. In 1965, only 18 percent of the women interviewed felt abortion should be allowed in cases where women from low income families were expecting babies they could not afford. By 1973, 49 percent favored abortion under the same circumstances. Within the same eight-year span, there was a 33 percent increase in the number of people who approved abortion for unwed mothers-to-be, and a 30 percent increase for married women who don’t want the child. Actual case history What do these figures mean in real-life situations? Last year, a 17-year old feared she was pregnant. The girl in and practiced birth control but methods, unfoitunately wound up in the small percentage who become despite precautions. pregnant After calling for an appointment, she went to an abortion clinic where a doctor performed a menstrual extraction to abort the unborn embryo. The procedure took five minutes. The girl was lucky. She had the money to pay for the operation; she was only 12 days pregnant, and the year was 1974. Ten years earlier, abortion was not publicly condoned for women who simply chose not to have their babies, was educated i uye c* y Buckham urged all women who think they are pregnant to contact a doctor or counseling center such as Planned Parenthood, where pregnancy tests are given at sliding income costs. Such exams are also available at the Erie County Building at no cost, or at the clinic for $4.

Last year he earned fame by scoring three key goals in the Bulls’ surprise victory at the SUNY Centers Championship. Buffalo’s success in 1975 largely depends on his performance. But Coach Sal Esposito isn’t so sure if Kulu will see any action this year. “He doesn’t have his head screwed on straight,” commented Esposito at his team’s practice last Friday. “This is only the second time I’ve seen him this year.” The Bulls have been practicing for two weeks. Esposito complained that Kulu has missed practice without giving any notice many times, and warned that if Kulu does not show a better attitude immediately, then he would not start in Wednesday’s opening game at Buffalo State. Kulu sees things differently. He claims that he wasn’t notified of some of the early practices, that he has attended four sessions, and that “personal financial problems” caused him to miss other practices. He does admit, however, that he simply forgot to notify Esposito that he would be missing any practice. No rift is seen between Kulu and Esposito. The second-year player has no animosity toward the coach, and the coach has made himself clear to the player. “He (Kulu) will get no special consideration," explained Esposito. * New names, tough games If Kulu for some reason does not play for the Bulls, newcomers, including Henry Gartner (wing), Brian Schmozz (goalie), and Dave Wolf (defensive back) are the players Esposito will have to rely on to try to match last year’s 8-3-1 record. The Bulls have a very tough schedule this season which includes three of the ten top rated schools in New York: Hartwick, Brockport and Binghamton. In addition, the Bulls will be trying to defend their SUNY Center championship, and will be vying for the new Big hour conference championship with Buffalo State, Canisius and Niagara. Tryouts announced Two of Buffalo’s winter season varsity athletic teams will be holding meetings tryouts this week. Students interested in joining the swimming team are requested to meet in Room 3 Clark Hall at 3:15 p.m. tomorrow.

Both will be converted to non-commercial, public broadcasting stations under the agreement. These new stations will make Buffalo one of the few American cities with more than one public broadcasting station, according to Marvin Granger, General Manager of WBFO. WBFO, which broadcasts from Norton Hall, is currently the only public broadcasting station in Buffalo. Whether or not WBFO will suffer financially from the new competition has not yet been determined, but Granger is confident that the three stations will be able to work together, especially if they can diversify their format. In Washington, D.C., for instance, there are three public radio stations and each appeals to a different audience. The three Washington stations also cooperate in fund-raising activities. Presently, WBFO receives funding from both the State University of New York and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, Granger said. Granger also said WBFO has been in contact with Mike Collins, president of WNED-TV, and that “all indications are that [the same type of corporation that exists in Washington] is highly possiblfe’here.” of the CUNY City College Newspaper, Campus, charged that tuition at the proposed level would effectively destroy the open admissions policy. “Even No further information regarding the terms of the radio stations sale is available, pending approval of the transaction by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Reliable sources speculate, however, that the new FM station will present a classical music format, and the AM will broadcast public information, news geared toward and programming, generally minority/ethnic audiences. The new station will be the first public broadcasting station on the AM band in the Northeast in over 50 years, according to Granger. “The greatest audience loss to WBFO might be our classical listeners,” Granger said. “This will, however, enable us to become more involved in the cultural and intellectual life of the University community.” One major difference between WBFO and the new stations would be that WBFO relies heavily upon volunteer participation in programming and producing the broadcasts, while the new stations will most likely employ professionals. “This is a great step forward for Buffalo and its development as a media center,” said Gerald Educational of the O’Grady, director Communications Center. The more good public broadcasting there is, the better, O’Grady maintains. There are, however, two possible sources of trouble for WBFO when the new stations start broadcasting. For one, WBFO has a relatively weak broadcasting signal, and also, the University-funded station, like many other campus activities, is subject to budget trimming actions by the State. WBFO has made no decisions regarding the matter, and a general “wait-and-see” attitude seems to prevail. More information should become available when WNED submits its application to the FCC, and the two new public stations begin broadcasting. Laura Allende, the sister of the late Chilean President Salvador Allende, will speak in the Fillmore Room Friday, at 8 p.m. Ms. Allende was elected to the Chilean Congress by the people of Santiago for three consecutive terms. She was last elected in March, 1973, and was serving her third term at the time of the military coup of September 1973. After the coup, she remained in Chile rather than seek exile, and aimed her efforts at the last time. She was taken to the prison camp, Alamos a 4 notorious torture center where are numerous political prisoners kept without any contact with the outside world, and held there for five months. During that time she lost 22 pounds, and was confined to a small room with 1 1 other prisoners. For five months she received no visitors and had communication with the outside. She admits that she was treated roughly on the day and night of her arrest, but was not tortured because of her fame, and international pressure. She did witness the torture of numerous no other prisoners. In March 1975, the military deported her to Mexico, in the wake of the persistent international demands for her release. Salvador Allende organizing the resistance to the military dictatorship. The military attempted to keep her under house arrest, but she refused to abide and continued to leave her house. Five arrests As a result, she was arrested and released five times between September, 1973 and November, 1974, when she was arrested for sought military The her son, information about Andres Pascal Allende, who is the head of the MIR, a left-wing party which is active in the Resistance. Her husband, and four relatives of her son’s wife were also arrested. Laura arrived in Mexico on March 21 this year with 95 other Chilean political prisoners. At the airport she said: “We have all come with broken hearts, because there are still thousands of fellow Chileans who are in jail, being tortured . . . This situation has to end as soon as possible, through the action of the Chileans in Chile and the solidarity of the international community.” Laura Allende’s visit to Buffalo is being sponsored by the Buffalo Committee for Chilean Democracy.

Efficient use of energy must be stepped up through existing technology and energy expenditures reduced, the scientist explained. Teller, who has also done research in the peaceful uses of thermonuclear energy and weapons, has been a guest of the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics this week, lecturing on various aspects of energy use. Teller maintained that one way to save existing energy supplies would be to produce lighter, more efficient automobiles. “There is no reason for anyone to drive a 5000 pound car,” he said, and suggested that rechargeable battery-powered vehicles could be useful. He also proposed the addition of an auxiliary engine for highway driving, which would use “more efficient stratified-charge carburation” instead of the conventional gasoline-air mixture. Japan and the Soviet Union use only half as much energy per capita as the United States, which only further emphasizes this country’s wastefulness, Teller said. Better insulation For instance, the United can reduce energy States consumption by using better insulation, Teller explained. He quoted a study by the National Bureau of Standards which found that 44 percent of all single-family homes sold in the U.S. last year were “mobile homes,” which are not manufactured with any insulation, although they could be fully insulated for only a five percent increase in their purchase price. A less obvious place to save money is in industrial use of “process steam,” to raise to manufacturing equipment desired- temperatures. Since one U.S. energy sixth of all consumption is used to heat pi I P rocess steam a reduction in this caiuara 'Teller I GUST area a considerable amount of energy, he stressed, explaining that 90 percent of the energy used for process steam is simply used to turn water into steam, and only 10 percent to actually raise the steam’s temperature. > Heat collectors This is one of the few areas where solar energy could be used, since the conversion of water into steam can be accomplished by placing small solar heat collectors on the roof of each industrial plant, he said. These solar heat collectors alone could allow the, U.S. to become self-sufficient in energy production. Teller noted that U.S. electrical production has increased greatly over the past several years, but tfiat the petroleum industry hasn’t expanded domestic facilities to keep pace. Additionally, the import duties on imported oil were established much too late, allowing the U.S. to rely on cheap foreign imports, which backfired with the Arab oil producing nations’ decision to raise ' their prices and institute an oil embargo.. ••••••••••• The Spectrum is published Mon day, Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday gTHE NICELODEON 0 0 ANTIQUE THEATRE 1406 Broadway (near Bailey) a Open Fri, Sat. 9 & Sun.

The statement, the first of its kind, appeared on September 1 in a special issue of The Humanist and has been the subject of national attention since its publication. Paul Kurtz, Editor-in-Chief of The Humanist is a Professor of Philosophy at the State University at Buffalo, and publishes the magazine on the Amherst Campus. The astronomers and astrophysicisists, who co-signed the statement, expressed concern with the increased acceptance of astrology in many parts of the world. Their intention is “to caution the public against the unquestioning acceptance of the predictions and advice given privately and publicly by astrologers.” , , Alleged influences The scientists are “especially distrubed by the continued uncritical dissemination of astrological charts, forecasts, and horoscopes by the. media and by otherwise reputable newspapers, magazines, and book publishers.” Now that the distances between the planets and the stars and the earth can be the scientists accurately measured, maintain that alleged “influences” are “infinitesimally small,” and that “it is simply a mistake to imagine that the forces exerted by stars and planets at the moment of birth can in any way shape our future.” G.L. Rehac, a member of the American Federation of Astrologers, in response to the statement, cites the ancient physician Hippocrates, who once said, “A doctor who does not use astrology is more a fool than a physician.” Rehac insists that astrologers are seriously engaged “in the task of separating astrological wheat from mythical chaff,” and that, contrary to the scientists’ claims, “astrologers do not believe in destiny predetermined by astral forces beyond our control.” Alarming increase The Humanist statement was drafted by Bart Bok, former president of the American Astronomical Society and Professor emeritus at the University of Arizona. In an extended article following the statement, Bok attacks what he considers to be “an alarming increase in the spread of astrology during the past two years,” not only in published materials, but through college course offerings as well. The public, Bok says, “has a right to expect from its scientists clarifying statements showing that astrology lacks a firm scientific foundation.” In another article, Lawrence E. Jerome, an engineer and writer who has done extensive research in astrology, charges that the “pseudoscience” of astrology has survived “only by attempting to attach itself to every appropriate new physical science that has come along.” Kurtz said copies of the statement are being sent to thousands of newspapers and magazines throughout the world. “Because newspapers and magazines continue to carry daily horoscopes or astrological charts many individuals accept them as bonafide. The general public is rarely exposed to a scientific critique of the principles of astrology and of the hazards of believing in them,” Kurtz charges. New drop-add system Registration they tried to avoid the long lines Course Request Form to the windows in Hayes B. While this would have saved the students the extra long wait, they would not have known which classes they received until the following day. Only a very small number of students elected to use the old drop-add system, Bailey said. For the most part, A&R officials, while regretting the long lines, believed that this year’s registration procedure was an improvement over last year’s. Unlike the fall, 1974, when several thousand students had to wait in the rain outside Clark Hall to pick up schedule cards, this year most students pre-registered in the spring and summer and received their schedule cards in the mail several weeks before classes began. Of the undergraduate students who were here last year, 91 percent pre-registered last May. Because of this, Dremuk said that A&R was able to prepare an analysis of course demand, which enabled the departments to plan class sections based on demand. by Mike McGuire Contributing Editor Boyer, a Sophomore transfer student the line at Hayes Annex B at a quarter to approached morning of classes, with the intention of on the first eleven two courses. As the weather started to get hotter, adding he began to get a little upset over the size of the line. Lenny By the time the clock struck a quarter to four, Lenny had to leave the lie to go to work. Luckily, one of the newly-found friends he met while standing there for five hours handed in his forms with her own. That occurred somewhat around 5 p.m. Lenny still got closed out one of the courses. This was just the sort of problem Admissions & Records (A&R) was trying to avoid this year, according to A&R officials. Give lines a chance Actually, said A&R Director Richard Dremuk and Assistant Directors for Registration Richard Canale and Robert Bailey, the new “on-line” system for dropping and adding courses represents a great improvement, given a chance to work. The system lets students know on-the-spot which sections are closed. In the first place, Bailey and Dremuk said they requested a minimum of nine terminals in Hayes B, plus the use of all the room opposite the registration windows. According to their estimates, this would enable A&R to handle drops and adds with a minimum of delay. However, they only received 60% of the room and five terminals, although three more were added on Thursday, September 4. Registration officials were also perturbed by budget cuts forcing A&R to close its Ellicott office. Dremuk said they had hoped to put computer terminals there so students with no Main Street classes would not have to come to Hayes B to register. In the spring, they hope to have ten terminals. However, whether they will be able to use the other space, normally reserved as a staff lounge, will depend on negotiations between the Civil Service Employees Association and the office of the Vice-President for Facilities Planning. These two bodies will have to agree on —I ekes an acceptable alternative location for the lounge, which is mandated by union contract. Mix-up Registration difficulties actually started before the Labor Day weekend, when the computing center got tied up and the schedule cards that were supposed to be distributed in Diefendorf Hall on Tuesday, September 2, were not processed in time. Students who didn’t receive their cards on September 2 came to Hayes B the creating lines that extended as far as Acheson Hall. To compound the troubles, the computer was not “up” (able to process registration materials) until 9:30 a.m. on September 3, nearly an hour after A&R opened. Hours in line About every fifteen minutes, A&R staff would walk along the line and tell the students they could submit a Some success Nevertheless, many 200-level courses in the English Department have closed sections due to exceptionally heavy enrollment. In addition, night courses offered by the School of Management were often closed early, while some day school offerings are still open. By next year, the officials hope there can be a toll-free telephone line to A&R so that people who cannot be in Buffalo during the summer can work out registration problems. They would also like to hook up some sort of video print-out, that could tell students when sections close or open at the instant the change occurs. This would help eliminate fruitless waiting on lines. Good advice Dremuk stressed that students still have the option of using the old course request forms, which is just as convenient if a student is only dropping a course and doesn’t need an instant record of the change on the schedule. Cavale and Dremuk prescribed other ways of avoiding registration tie-ups. First, anyone who is returning to school the following semester should pre-register. Secondly, they should always include alternate courses on the request forms. Thirdly, make sure all accounts are settled with the Office of Student Accounts. And fourthly, if you need advisement, get it early. Friday, 12 September 1975 . The Spectrum .

The Council does, however, sponsor some joint religious activities. Last year the Council presented a Religious Music Festival and a Carnival for World Hunger. Similar activities are planned for this year. Points in common Saunders added that many campus clergy teach courses in the Religious Studies Program. Most of the religious organizations on campus function similarly, providing educational, social and religious services for students. The Protestant groups have a Sunday Night Free Supper each week. The Methodist group sponsors Retreats (spiritually enriching and recreational weekend excursions). Another area of interest to the Council is the Life Workshop program, which offers non-credit seminars in Bike Repair, Death and Dying, and Drunk Driving.

According to Hillel House director Rabbi Julius Hoffman, Hillel offers religious services to accommodate all types of Judaism Reformed, Conservative and Orthodox. Services are held weekly at 8 p.m. on Fridays and 10 a.m. on Saturdays. Rabbi Hoffman described the Hillel services as very “friendly and informal.” Services planned for Yom Kipper will be held both in the Fillmore Room at the Main Street Campus and in the Elficott Complex at the Amherst Campus. Some of the events that Hillel plans for the coming year,”kabbi Hoffman continued, include a Shabbaton “a complete Shabbat experience” with services, Sabbath meals and guest speakers.

If he loses, Regan will be faced with losing a line that usually produces more than 25,000 votes in a county-wide elction. In addition to this, Democrats outnumber Republicans by more than 35,000 in Erie County. Judicial races saw most of the endorsed candidates succeed in making the November ballot, despite a dizzying series of crossfilings. Besides the above-mentioned LaMendola-Denman contest, the Democrats nominated Peter J. Notaro, Edward V. Mazur, and John J. Honan for Family Court Judge, and John A. Ramunno, Alois C. Mazur, and Samuel L. Green for City Court Judge. All had been endorsed. Double winners Republicans nominated Leon W. Paxon, Elloeen D Oughterson, and Raymond R. Niemer for Family Court Judge.

All of the other endorsed Democratic and Republican candidates emerged victorious in Common Council and County Legislature races, although Legislature Chairman Richard Keane received a strong challenge from William Conrad in the Democratic primary.

A rally and mock trial were staged Tuesday afternoon in the Norton Fountain area to commemorate the fourth anniversary of the 1971 Attica Rebellion. “Judgement” was passed on former New York State Governor Nelson Rockefeller and his decision to order state troopers to retake the prison from the rebelling inmates. Also “charged” was University President Robert Ketter for his decision to veto mandatory student activity fee money allocated by the Student Assembly to charter buses to Albany last April for a rally in support of the Attica defendants. Ketter viewed the event as “political” and therefore, a violation of mandatory fee guidelines. Several speakers, including Attica defendent BigBlack, mentioned the danger anyone faces in “speaking out” against what is wrong with this state and our political and social systems. The specific problems faced by women, and the problems posed by cutbacks in aid to minority student projects were also discussed. The first speaker, Janice Silver of the Attica Support Group, told the crowd of about 150 that the students of this University support all 39 demands made by the rebelling inmates. She demanded that the suspensions oL five students following last April’s Hayes Hall demonstration “be lifted immediately.” She also claimed it is “the right of UB students Two Recording Secretaries Duties: Take minutes at various meetings for various units of Student Association One Assistant Treasurer Duties; SA bookeeping and treasurer assistance Positions are stipended!

Charges and attacks The “trial” charged Rockefeller with murder, as well as obstruction of justice for the state’s alledged* interference with the trials of Dacajewiah and Charley Joe Pernasalice. Ketter was accused of deliberately planning an attack on the students in Hayes Hall by Campus Security guards. Together they were charged with working together to keep the real story of the Attica rebellion from “reaching the people.” A student who spoke next attacked the University’s closing of the Day Care Center, cutbacks in minority affairs funds, and the alledged harrassment of gay men. He compared all these “injustices” to the State misconducts at Attica. “The establishment is trying to crush us!” he cried. Big Black, the final speaker, repeated over and over his appeal for black and white students here to unite in defense of the Attica brothers. “Together we can fight this thing,” he stressed.

On this particular day, in fact, a group of about ten inmates conducted a Muslim worship service by one of the yard walls, unnoticed by the guards. however, became Dewer, involved in a shoving match with another inmate. Witnesses claim the two were simply sparing good-naturedly; but one guard mistook the incident for a serious fight. They failed to stop, despite his warning. Unheard-of defiance When the guard approached, accompanied by another to back him up, one of the scufflers melted into the crowd. Dewer also tried to flee but was spotted by the guard. After taking hold of the inmate by the arm, the guard was caught off-guard when Dewer spun around and struck him twice on the chest. The other inmates began to crowd around the two struggling men, obviously excited by this act of defiance. After another prisoner, Ray to came Dewer’s Lamorie, the excitement assistance, two guards, increased. The frightened by the menacing, angry throng around them, decided to retreat. Dewer was released and the matter dropped until later that night. Vincent Superintendent Mancusi, already uneasy over the prison’s overcrowded conditions and the new spirit of unity among the inmates, decided firm action was the best response to this act of defiance. After dinner, he ordered Dewer and Lamorie put • Russell Oswald in solitary confinement in the area of the prison called “Housing Block Z” which the prisoners referred to as .'he Box.” “ Dewer’s cries as he was taken could be heard by every inmate in A-Block, Lamorie went along more quietly, but his departure also brought cries of protest from the other inmates.

This enabled one of the other inmates to flip the lever and release Ortiz from his cell. When Oritz’ absence was discovered, Mancusi finally ordered all the men in “Five Company” of A-Block to march back to their cells and then, with the exception of Ortiz, to be released again. Lieutenant Robert Curtiss, one AUDITIONS The aroused inmates quickly of A-yard, armed with pipes, chains, broomsticks and other makeshift weapons.

He fell heavily to the floor, and when three other officers came to his assistance, the angry inmates jumped on them as well. Curtiss was pursued down the passageway as he attempted to summon help, and the phone he was hoping to reach was ripped from the wall. Keys were taken from another guard, and inmates opened all the cells in A-Block. Because the prison had a history of remaining relatively trouble-free, the authorities had no real “riot plan” to activate. Thus, Mancusi and the other officials were too surprised to act quickly and about 15 minutes the revolting later, inmates swarmed down the passageway toward “Times Square,” the junction at the very center of the prison connecting A, B, C and D passageways and yards.

New York City and State officials have worked around the clock for weeks in attempting to meet city payrolls and ward off the disastrous possibility of default. First the Municipal Assistance Corporation ("Big Mac") was set up by the state to sell revenue-anticipation bonds backed by city sales taxes. When that failed to attract potential investors, city officials were forced to resort to more drastic, emergency measures for reducing the $3.3 billion deficit, that included dipping into pension funds, laying off thousands of municipal workers, pleading for advance payment of real-estate taxes, imposing a wage freeze, and raising the subway fares. Now there is serious talk of charging tuition at the City University (CUNY), a move that would effectively eliminate the "open admissions" policy and deny hundreds of students the opportunity to obtain a college education, but one that will probably be necessary to maintain the institution's academic quality in light of severe budgetary reductions. Recognizing the imperative need to bail New York City out, the New York State legislature made into law a measure that provides the "Big Apple" with $2.3 billi'on to survive between now and December 1. This is, however, only a temporary solution since New York will reportedly need $3.7 billion more between December 1 and June 30 to pull through its fiscal year. Despite the devastating effect a default by New York City would have on the other cities in the country, the federal government has thusfar refused to step in. Members of the Ford administration, particularly Treasury Secretary William Simon, remain oblivious to the urgency of the crisis and there will be no hope left if their pigheaded attitude does not change. New York City is not without blame for the financial mess it is in. However, it has made more efforts than any other city to give all its people a fair break by footing the nation's largest welfare role and attempting to provide quality, free education. Unfortunately, these are not top priority areas for the federal government and New York is cracking under the burden. There is no doubt that the federal government will have to do something to save New York or suffer the ripple effect the city's default would have on the rest of the country. Ideally, by taking over New York's welfare costs, the "feds" could rescue the "Big Apple" from its fiscal plight and show that its generosity is aimed in the right direction.

What good does it do to fight a partial battle against discrimination? Suppose that tomorrow, no biases existed Jews blacks Asiatics Native against women anybody. Suppose every person in Americans America had a truly equal right to be hired solely on the basis of their qualifications. Suppose there were — — — — - no more minorities. What would charges higher insurance rates for employees over the age of sixty-five, thus making it more expensive for Blue Bird to employ senior citizens. If the bus line cannot be blamed for Mr. Baldwin’s dismissal, then their insurance company certainly deserves indictment. It is a cruel form of discrimination to label all old people as high risk employees. Such discriminatory practices become particularly ludicrous when it can be seen by anyone who bothers to look that the minds of old people retain their yes, and often their bodies, too! sharpness and vitality long after the age of sixty-five. They do not shrivel overnight into senility, as some - that profit us, if those newly-liberated ex-minority people were arbitrarily fired as soon as they reached the age of sixty-five? Mr. A1 Baldwin, who crive the Ellicott-Ridge Lea bus last year, was dismissed from his job. He was an excellent driver. Moreover, he was an exceptional person. This was attested to by dozens of students who sent him frequent cards, gifts, and notes of appreciation. He didn’t just drive people around he made them feel good, too. He was fired because he was over seventy. 1 was told that this was not the fault of the bus line. The company that insures Blue Bird bus drivers - would believe. Mr. Baldwin’s arbitrary dismissal will sadden the students to whom he brought so much sunshine. But how many of us will be angry? We would certainly be upset if someone was fired (or not hired) solely on the basis of being “too female,” “too black,” or “too Jewish.” But until the phrase “too old” angers us as much as those other phrases, we are not going to grow at all.

Its assemblage of news footage, movie clips, songs, still photographs, and cartoons careens wildly across the Depression decade with all the carefully choreographed, earnest sentimentality of a Busby Berkeley production but often evidencing no more true feeling than number those calendar pages that used to whip across the frames of thirties movies. Everything and everybody that ever made the papers (particularly the gossip columns) during what the film's - material calls "the laughing, crying, promotional never-to-be-forgotten 30's" (with many exclamation points) shows up here, at least for a few seconds. Here are the Stork Club at New Year's Eve, 1938, Boulder Dam filling up for the first time, Cecil B. DeMille directing one of his casts of thousands, and Billie Holiday clinging to a cold steel rail through the "Jealousy Blues." Will Rogers praises Franklin Roosevelt, Herbert Hoover criticizes him, Huey P. Long makes fun of him, Giuseppe Zangara tries to wife. kill him. And Jack Benny sells a benefit ticket to his Early warning? J. Edgar Hoover advises, without a trace of irony, that "the F.B.I. is as close to you as your nearest telephone." Clark Gable, Jimmy Stewart, Marlene Dietrich, W.C. Fields and King Kong all dash back and forth across the screen hot on the heels of Dust Bowl farmers and freight-hopping hoboes. Louis meets Schmeling (both times); the headliners meet the breadliners for a split second, but there is no time to pause for introductions The rapid cuts from one situation to the next are often sensitively achieved, but writer-director Philippe Mora's juxtapositions are just as often embarassingly cute or quite meaningless. (Incidentally, it is not clear exactly what Mora wrote or directed, since someone else is credited with the editing; a better title might have been "compiler" or even "chief archivist.") President Roosevelt's stern insistence, in a 1939 speech, that "we will not have a blackout of peace" is followed immediately by a shot of the White House at and all the lights are shut off for the evening at night - exactly the same moment. A beautifully put-together sequence showing striking factory workers and the terrifying start of a riot, accompanied by Woody Guthrie's "Vigilante Man, dissolves inexplicably into the coy title "Hooray for Hollywood," and suddenly there's Shirley Temple on Academy Awards night. ("Oh, it's so bright and shiny! Aren't you proud of it, Mr. Disney?") The good, the bad and the stupid Mora's transitions can be divided into thj-ee fairly clear categories: perceptive and subtle, obvious and clumsy, and downright incomprehensible. Perhaps the odd mish mash that sometimes results was conceived of as a comment on to quote the ads once again, this the prevailing Zeitgeist equal parts of vitality and era founded on was an vulgarity" but, good intentions aside, unevenness is still — — unevenness. Still, balancing out these flaws and an overly pat finale in which Mora tries to link the body of the film to a montage covering the Iqst four administrations in as many "minutes, winding up with a reversal of his opening sequence of melting skyscrapers and exploding ticker-tape, is the extraordinary range of his material. The interviews are especially fascinating, particularly those with John Dillinger's unusually understanding father (famous last words. "I guess he had a grudge against people from getting such a raw deal") and a very young Orson Welles the morning after the War of the Worlds Halloween hysteria ("I would have been surprised and if anyone said a broadcast could be less effective hurt than life"). Whole Hollywood catalog Mora gives at least a quick nod of acknowledgement to every major film of the decade and its stars; indeed, if Brother may be said to have a "star," it is certainly James Cagney, who pops up in one guise or another about every including Cab 15 minutes. And the music alone Calloway's "Hi-De-Ho" in a Harlem cabaret, Ina Ray Hutton and Her All-Girls Orchestra belting out "Every Man's a King" while lyricist Huey Long bounces in his is front-row seat, and the stunning footage of Lady Day worth at least the price of a matinee. Some of the film clips themselves verge on brilliance. — — A dance marathon sequence, shot as the last few survivors drag their sleeping partners in endless circles, focuses on the grotesquely twisted feet of the "silent partners" for a full half-minute before the camera pulls back to explain this apparent dismemberment. The point is beautifully made the disembodied limbs in their dancing slippers are as pathetically unrelated to the realities driving their owners as is the absurdity of the contest itself. If Philippe Mora could only have been as consistently intriguing as his subjects. Brother. Can You Spare a Dime? (now playing at the Boulevard Mall and Eastern Hills Cinemas) might have turned out to be more than just a very entertaining pastiche. - �Our Weekly Reader I chord would be violently struck if this were a movie.

Cassavettes' improvisational approach to filmmaking perhaps reaches its full fruition in Woman, with Peter Falk and Oscar nominee Gena Rowlands, both stunning in fheir portrayals of a couple being destroyed by alienation, alcohol and their failure to realize and satisfy each other's needs. It's a very powerful film, which I have heard more women recommend to more men than any other film I can think of. Day for Night won Truffaut the 1974 Oscar as Best Foreign Film. It's easy to understand why: the film is a deeply affectionate not portrait of what has been called "the magic of moviemaking" naively in the slightest, but still in a warm and rich manner.

(Gordon Rogoff, former Theatre Department Chairman and CTR Director, left the University to become Chairman of the Brooklyn College Theatre Department.) is one of the that reasons Elkin will be to continuing teach the Accessibility Department's basic course, Introduction to Theatre (Theatre 105), as he has for several years. He sees this sort of initial contact as crucial, both to prospective more theatre students and generally: "There's a small group of students 80 to 100 majors — — training here to become theatre professionals. But there is amuch as many as a larger group who thousand students a year take theatre courses. My hope is to Create that second group to turn people on to theatre. Part of a theatre department's mission is not only to carry out theatre to educate education, but — — - summer experimentation, and to share the "What I have in mind is two plays, which would play first on this campus and then in the parks and neighborhoods of Buffalo." One of these would possibly be a Shakespearean comedy; the other, "an original play based on the life and heart and sould of Buffalo, possibly even called 'The Buffalo Play' a 'gift of theatre' from the benefit of visiting professionals with students. That's going to happen now, perhaps to a greater — University to Buffalo." The summer program might also play at Artpark in Lewiston.

It is small wonder that the parochial minded critics yearned for a return to a more Hall and Oates, romantic posture. fearing an irreconcilable gulf apparently from critic and audience alike, decided to mellow their sound by journeying through the past. Perhaps it was a quasi-calculated move to cash in on the disco craze by hoping once again to make contact with the sluggish pulse of the common denominator. haunting RECORDS i John Oates (RCA) A cardinal sin committed by musical artists is abandoning the demanding process of maturation and exploration for complacent, static formulas and blatant bids for mass appeal. Hall and Oates have finally succumbed to this malady on their latest release, oddly enough entitled Daryl Hall and John Oates. The album retraces avenues of expression already amply covered by Daryl and John on War Babies and especially Abandoned Luncheonette. The tracks lack the energy and production and brilliance that were arranging hallmarks of their two previous albums. The evolution of Hall and Oates music grew from folk to soul and then flowered, into a city sound. The city sound rocked and rumbled like the E train vomiting graffiti. Certain critics, unable to fathom Daryl Hall & Eumir Deodato, First Cuckoo (MCA) Instruments are the tools that are used to make music and Eumir Deodato employs a multitude of tools on this album, therefore the vinyl must have a lot of music on it. False. The many very talented people that play on First Cuckoo just don't make their sounds flow together often enough. Deodato can tickle the ivory well enough to make just about anyone merry and on this album he instills gaiety only when he plays low keyed, laid back numbers. Two such tunes are on the album and they are First Cuckoo's savior. "Crabwalk" is a Deodato tune with an intro by Hubert Laws' lilting flute. The title offers the best description possible for Bruce Springsteen, Born to Run (Columbia) Bruce Springsteen has been put into a number of overused categories by his record company and the media, categories such as "the new Dylan," (there are an awful lot of these lately) "street poet" (even more of these) and even "the soul of the city" (obviously a contradiction in terms). It is because of this unfortunate hype, as well as the almost incessant urgings by some of my friends, that I had the city sound which characterized War Babies, lashed out and called it a noisy excursion down the chaotic dead-end of glitter rock. But War Babies in reality was a the song. Picture a lonely crab crawling along the shore and listen for a wispy horn to sweep him away everytime he comes across a rock or wave. On this song Deodato gets the musicians playing for him to really float together. The only other selection worthy of is "Adam's Hotel," honorable mention penned by Marcos Valle. Here Deodato keeps the song simple, leaving out the massive, often stifling horn section, and plays some light headed electric piano while he whistles along. Accenting Deodato's sound is a large string accompaniment which is kept in check and merely offers background music for the piano, giving us a pleasant, warm, fireplace life and seedy love affairs. Still, the pictures he paints of these of life are frighteningly stark and accurate, and he has the delivery and facets musical help necessary to back them up. Whether or not Bob Dylan ever had these things is left up to the reader, but it seems to me that the term "street poet" is an incomplete description of Springsteen’s unproductive talents. Besides, is about time that it people, critics in particular, stopped using Dylan as the standard criterion for judging new songwriters The title song of the new album, written as a make-or-break attempt at a hit single, attests to the all-around excellence of Bruce and the E Street Band, vocally as well as instrumentally.

The sound slowly builds as Springsteen begins the tale of a hot night in Jersey: Barefoot girt sitting on the hood of a Dodge Drinking warm beer in the soft summer rain The Rat pulls into town rolls up his pants By the end of the second verse, the texture has changed from that of a ballad to that of a Who concert, power chords backing words of violence and night life.

Lines like these, projected forcefully a great arrangement, create an aura which is reminiscent of old rock & roll, yet fully contemporary in sound Springsteen's guitar playing, as well as his arrangements, betray a fascination with the fifties and early sixties, yet he never relies solely on the past for inspiration. The instrumentation on the album’s eight cuts is widely varied, ranging from all-out rock to fifties harmonies to a trumpet-piano-bass barroom sound in the course- of the first three songs of the second side. "Jungleland," the album's final (and probably best) cut, begins with a fact. ratin' afternoon, but it will help you go to sleep at night. over Sometime over the summer, however, I started catching gems like "rosalita" and "Incident on 57th Street" on the local FM station and began to suspect that maybe the Springsteen cultists had latched onto something very good.

Dylan would probably come out on top of any such contest of words, being equally at home Putting an end to speculation, and paper thin theories of motivation, Daryl Hall and John Oates remains a pale reflection of their true capabilities. Enough of the material sounds like spin-offs from previous endeavors and the momentary feeling of d6ja vu is revealed and unmasked as no more than repetition. Another fault of the album is the production, which too often sounds frail and unimaginative As much of a disappointment as Daryl Hall and John Oates is, it does contain glimpses when it nearly delivers what it barely only hits at musically. These moments are brought off by the expressive vocal foreplay of Daryl Hall. His voice happens to be among the best in rock. Hall's fluttering falsettos bring to mind the best of Jackie Wilson and the viability of blue eyed soul. Daryl's dynamic vocals almost transform mediocre tunes into sizzling and soulful numbers. "Out of Me, Out of You," "Nothing at All," and "It Matter Anymore" provide Doesn't convincing evidence of Daryl's uncanny ability to stir life into his songs. But even Daryl Hall can't make this album what it isn't. Artistry has been chucked for a slick commercial product that hasn't anymore depth than the Pierre LaRouche make-up that adorns the countenance of Daryl and John on the album jacket. —C.P.

Only A Few Minutes From The Cam US �Uproar Marriage licenses for Denver gays Cowboy hat in hand, a fuming Colorado resident marched into the County Clerk’s office in Boulder and demanded a marriage license for himself and his horse. The request was denied. His 8-year-old mare, it seems, was underage. Decent folks in Boulder have been up in arms recently over the issuance of same-sex marriage licenses, and the County Clerk s office, which insists it’s going by the books, has been bombarded with over 100 obscene phone calls. “Most of the nasty calls center around renditions from the Bible,” reported Clela Rorex, Boulder s County Clerk. The Court has issued six marriage licenses to homosexual couples in the week following a well-publicized homosexual marriage in a Denver church. (CPS) - Legal marriage? The licenses will probably be contested in court and in the opinion of the Colorado Attorney General they will probably be invalidated, perhaps setting the stage for a future Supreme Court decision. A Colorado marriage was not the first homosexual union, however. The first gay nuptial vows were said a couple of years ago by two Minnesota men. Jack Baker, former University of Minnesota student body president and Mike McConnell. Baker and McConnell have recently tried to adopt a child but ran into a brick wall when the adoption agency refused to consider their application. They are appealing the case to the St. Paul Human Rights Commission. Baker, an attorney, cites a number of legal arguments which in his opinion guarantee the right to same-sex marriage, including both the equal protection clause and the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. While the present tangle concerns the legality of a same-sex marriage, gay marriages are not uncommon. Gay spokespeople note that thousands of homosexual couples have been united in religious ceremonies in recent years without a government document. Still others have received licenses by having one partner pose as a member of the opposite sex.

Reiss Spectrum Staff Writer Hoping to regain lost confidence and inspire new teamwork, Buffalo’s Baseball Bulls are preparing to embark upon a new fall season. In attempting to improve on last year’s 31 -25 record (which included fall, winter and spring competition), the Bulls are devoting special attention to certain areas. “We’ve been stressing fundamentals,” said Bill Monkarsh, now in his ninth year as baseball coach. “This team has worked hard in the fall than any other I’ve coached so far.” According to Monkarsh, one of the keys to the team’s success lies in the improvement of its overall defense. Despite a basically sound defense last year, sloppy play and mental errors cost the Bulls more than one victory. Oops A typical problem Buffalo encountered last year was the catching of routine infield flies. Too often, three infielders would surround a pop-up, only to watch the ball drop between them. Monkarsh feels these' defensive lapses were attributed to the fact that last year’s infield was entirely new. “Now that we’ve been playing together for a full season, many of these problems should be resoled. The situation was a new one for all involved, and the players had to develop a sense of teamwork. 1 think this has been accomplished and hopefully some of those problems won’t arise again,” he said. The infield will once again be led by shortstop Jack Kaminska.

Perhaps the most serious problem Monkarsh faces is restoring confidence in his pitchers. The staff is intact and should be a sound one, but control was a problem all last year. “We never regained the edge of two years ago,” the coach related. “Now we’re working on correcting mistakes and allowing the pitchers to gain confidence in their basic abilities.” Some of the pitchers, like Jim Niewczyk, helped themselves during the vacation by playing summer ball. Niewczyk posted a record of 12-2 in a Western New York league. Bats in the outfield The outfield, which was the power of the team last year, once again looks strong. Jim Mary and his .420 average have returned to anchor left field, while center will be temporarily manned by Rick Wolstenholme temporarily because Wolstenholme is being groomed for second base in an attempt to get more punch into the lineup. Wolstenholme’s successor in center has yet to be found. A broken arm suffered by right fielder Jim Scarcello' has left his position open until he will be able to return in the spring. Buffalo’s catching will be as solid as ever with Mike Dixon, one of the best collegiate catchers around, doing the chores. The offensive slack that was created by players who graduated last term will have to be picked up by some first year players. But the key areas for a successful season will be, as Monkarsh put it, “good pitching and solid defense.

This year will also be a povital year. Last year, Bruce Engel’s TGIF became in a controversy which should never have occurred. This year, The Bullpqn'% major goal will be to avoid that unnecessary battle. If a restatement of the opinions of the Sports Editor of The Spectrum is all that happens on the sports pages of this newspaper for. the next nine months, I will have done my job. A friend of mine suggested that I call this column TGIR (Thank God It’s Rubin) which isn’t a bad idea. Engel offended people he didn’t want to and didn’t offend the ones he really disliked. Yet despite all the uproar about his editorship, he really did support intercollegiate athletics at this school. But enough about last year. Engel is in Missouri, and from now on my name will appear next to “Sports Editor” in the masthead. Let me first say that I wholeheartedly support intercollegiate athletics at Buffalo. If I didn’t, then 1 would have to be a real idiot to spend more time writing about athletics than I do attending class. Let me also say that every member of my staff feels the same way. This wholehearted support does not mean however that the sports department of The Spectrum will publish stories which advertise Buffalo sporting events. That is public relations, not news. If the tennis team loses, we’ll try to find out why they lost, and the story will be just as long as if they had won. We’ll recognize outstanding performances by teams or individuals, but if the wrestling team, for instance, drops six matches in a row this winter, that will be well noted, too. There should be no need for me to expound these practices of journalism, but the objections raised by members of the University in recent years shows an awful lack of knowledge about a journalist’s responsibilities. (Perhaps if the - ipplll at 3 photos University offered some journalism courses, this problem could be alleviated.) When budget time comes around next spring, my staff will be primarily concerned with trying to sort out the rumors, proposals, and arguments which turn up. But we will also concern ourselves with what we think should and should not be done. The Bullpen and commentaries by other members of the sports staff will discuss the pros and cons of those various rumors and proposals. I also invite all interested parties to write commentaries, Guest Opinions, or possibly even a segment of The Bullpen to express their views. Student Athletic Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia did some writing last year, and I hope he and others like him continue to contribute to The Spectrum. The budget, however, is something 1 wish 1 didn’t have to deal with. I am a sportswriter, and budget hearings is not sport. If I wanted to go to Student Assembly meetings, I’d write campus news. This year, the sports staff is one of the largest and most experienced in recent history, and more and better stories should find their way onto the sports pages of The Spectrum. The Bulls this year are inauguaring conference play with Buffalo State, Canisius and Niagara in many sports, and we will keep close track of league developments. The wrestling Bulls, a perennial powerhouse, will be entering their own conference which includes such powers as Penn State and Lock Haven. We’ll have some pro football predictions, Athlete of the Week, and an improved Statistics Box. We’ll keep an eye on intramurals and club sports, and we’ll be running the inter-collegiate harness racing championship which was so popular last year. As far as The Bullpen itself is concerned, it will be pretty free-wheeling. Comedy, tragedy, documentary and commentary will all appear from time to time. Basically it will be my opportunity to shoot off my rather loud mouth in print. mod school applications. lavs school applications, ID and test photos S3 (S 50 each additional with original order) Open Wednesdays and Thursdays: 11 a.m. 5 p.m. COUNCIL ON INTERNATIONAL STUDIES OVERSEAS ACADEMIC PROGRAMS INTERNATIONAL AREA STUDIES INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING PROGRAM ARABIC PROGRAM CHINESE PROGRAM Intensive English Language Institute Special Studies Publications 125 252 285 326 350 Introduction to International Development Culture and Art of Meso-America Native Peoples Modern Mid-East Political Structures Economy of the Third World 213461 004913 020151 166452 099074 For further information call: 831-4941 Council on Tnternational Studies; 107 Townsed Hall, Main Campus Friday, 12 September 1975 .

The plans presently include a hotel, market, dry cleaners, savings bank, barber shop, or “any other type of service people need to live,” UB Foundation President John Latona told The Spectrum in an interview Monday. The UB Foundation, incorporated to promote private support of the University, has been charged with overseeing the commercial construction in Amherst primarily because it is the only financial branch of the University which has the resources to raise the amount of initial credit necessary. Latona estimated the cost at somewhere between eight and ten million dollars, and said the money will be obtained either in the form of a savings bank loan or from pension funds. The University is currently negotiating a lease for the land on the Amherst Campus with the State University of New York (SUNY), subject to approval of the State University at Buffalo Board of Trustees, the SUNY Board of Trustees, the State Division of the Budget, and Comptroller the Honor societies Arthur Levitt Detailed discussion of the planned commerical establishments is being put off until work on the lease is completed, Latona reported. However, all the planned facilities are expected to be completely self-sufficient and will receive no subsidy from the State University. Legislation permitting construction of the commercial facilities was signed into law by Governor Hugh Carey in July. The bill had met with angry opposition from Town of Amherst officials until it was amended to provide for special payments to the town in lieu of taxes. The bill was sponsored by State Senator James McFarland, (R—Kenmore), and Assemblyman G. James Frenaming, (D—Synder), whose districts include the Amherst campus area. The commercial facilities will be located along Lee Entrance Road on the Amherst Campus, south of the Ellicott Complex, west of Lake LaSalle, and directly north of the academic spine’s new language ’ building. Latona said architecture and design of commercial facilities will be very strongly controlled to be sure they are integrated with the rest of the campus. the Grade inflation and the new academic by Howard Greenbiatt Campus Editor At a time when students and university faculty and administrators across the country report an “inflated grade market,” membership in academic honor societies appears to be on the rise. And at a time when the competition for entrance to graduate schools and career positions is becoming more intense, students are increasingly conscious of improving their academic image. On this campus, there are dozens of ways in which student excellence in academic areas, extracurricular activities, and service to the University may be “rewarded.” Each year hundreds of students are eligible for special recognition, which in some cases involves cash awards, but many are either ignorant of the membership criteria or are simply unaware that awards and societies exist. The most common academic honor at this University the Dean’s tist, which is compiled at the end of every is semester, and which is often taken for granted. Students carrying a full-time course-load (16 or more credit hours a term) who, in 12 hours or more of graded courses achieve a 3.2 or better quality point average (QPA) are officially “eligible” for the Dean’s List. 2500 students In fact, students satisfying these grade requirements are automatically placed on the Dean’s List, and are notified shortly after the end of the term. Dorothy Wynne, Assistant Director of Advisement for the Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) reports that last semester, there were about 2500 students placed on the Dean’s List, a slight decrease over the previous semester. Upon graduating, students in all four-year undergraduate programs may be eligible to receive Latin Honors for high overall QPA’s. Students may graduate cum laude (with honor) if their QPA average is 3.2, magna cum laude (with high honor) for 3.5, and summa cum laude (with highest honor) for 3.75 or better. The average for Latin Honors is computed from eight semesters of work. To achieve Latin Honors, which are inscribed on the diploma, transfer students must not only have the appropriate grades, but according to the DUE Bulletin, their State University at Buffalo average must be commensurate with the required QPA for a given level of honors. Kay Dudley, Secretary to Dean Charles Ebert, reports that about 800 graduating students received Latin Honors last June, “and every one received a personally typed.and signed letter from the Dean.” Each department In the University has the perogative of awarding degrees “with highest distinction,” “with high distinction,” and “with distinction” to students who have achieved a certain level of academic excellence during their undergraduate years. Criteria vary from department to department, and some award no honors at all. A student must usually be enrolled in a special honors program to achieve these distinctions. There are numerous honor societies to which qualified students may belong, and many on this campus are local chapters of national organizations. Alpha Lambda Delta is a national scholastic honor society for freshmen women who have earned a 3.5 QPA during their first semester or during their entire freshman year, based on a total of 12 graded hours. Freshman women who meet these requirements are invited to join, and there is a local annual initiation rite during which new members recite an oath and receive an engraved certificate. Men’s counterpart Phi Eta Sigma is the men’s counterpart to Alpha Lambda Delta. The membership requirements are the same, and new initiates also receive a gold lapel key to signify their distinction. Both organizations are dedicated —continued on page 14— image to the pursuit of high academic achievement, and hold meetings, lectures and projects to farther this aim. Perhaps the most well-known, coveted, and most prestigious undergraduate honorary society is Phi Beta Kappa. The local chapter of this national society holds three elections per year. Honorees are selected from students in traditional liberal arts and sciences programs who have completed between 80-96 graded semester hours with a QPA of 3.8 or above. Students in B. A. programs who have completed 112 or more hours with an average of 3.6 or above will be considered for election on the basis of nomination by individual departments or programs. According to national Phi Beta Kappa regulations, election must be based on overall quality, difficulty of the program selected, and “evidence of intellectual accomplishment.” 10 percent limit Local Phi Beta Kappa chapters, according to the rules, may not elect more than ten percent of a given class to membership. Students who feel they may be eligible for membership to this society should inform the Secretary-Treasurer, Claude Welch, at the Department of Political Science, by mail. There are also numerous grants and endowed scholarships set aside for students from a variety of academic disciplines and family backgrounds. Students interested in these awards should consult the DUE Bulletin. �Big, bigger supposedly best , seem to be springing up overnight.

One of the more striking features of the new campus is sixty-acre Lake LaSalle. Students and visitors admire the aesthetic charm of the lake, but architects and engineers know that without it, the campus would probably not exist. The lake provided 1.1 million cubic feet of landfill which was used to raise buildings above flood levels. The campus is actually built upon a huge swamp, a fact which source of has been the controversy during the planning and construction years. Charles Ebert, dean of Undergraduate Education, a renowned geographer, still maintains that the Amherst site was probably a mistake, but University President Ketter, Robert himself an insists that teams of engineer, architects and engineers from around the world studied the land carefully and approved of the location. Underground power The campus is all electric and utilities will be underground. distribution, Power communications and utility works of various kinds are part of the system. The Chilled Water Plant, will nearly completed, now all academic air-condition buildings, a picturesque college town, and well-trimmed quads were transformed into a 1200 acre construction site. And despite the seemingly insurmountable hassles which beset Amherst Campus residents ,(poor bus service, no stores, no recreational facilities), a certain pioneer spirit prevailed, and with the awareness that everyone was in the same boat came the realization that misery could be fun. Impressive improvement Two years later, one cannot fail to be impressed by the rapid improvement at Amherst. Rows of trees line newly-paved streets, sidewalks and bicycle paths, grass grows everywhere, and buildings Nursing, which will remain on the Main Street Campus. State University Trustees, the State Legislature, the Division of the Budget, and Governors Rockefeller and Carey have made a $650 million committment for building the campus.

Circulation average: 14,000 Spaulding Quad residents, many of whom are new to the Univeristy, are complaining vehemently about the “deplorable” living conditions in their corner of the Ellicott Complex. Many of the students claim they were promised adequate housing in advance, but instead found themselves placed in inadequate temporary housing last week. Insufficient garbage collection, a lack of maintenance, and the absence of Resident Advisors are among the complaints. One student, who is now residing on the eighth floor of building four of the quad, indicated that “there is garbage piled in the halls that has accummulated for some time, which is a dangerous fire hazard.” Many also complained that the bathrooms have not been cleaned or resupplied, and that the vents which service the bathrooms are also out of order. Broken showers, no telephones, no laundry or vending machines, no lounge furniture, and inadequate lighting at night, are among the remaining grievances. Residents also complained that they are not receiving mail, and that all but one of the outside doors are always locked. Contradicting observations Assistant Housing Director Cliff Wilson, contends, however, that all 97 students living in Spaulding were previously informed by mail that there would be no other permanent residence space available to accommodate them. Students temporarily residing in Spaulding will have to wait two weeks before being placed in a permanent living facility, Wilson said. Wilson also insisted that he personally investigated the complaints, and found most of the student grievances were for the most part exaggerated. “I am positive that Spaulding Quad has indeed received garbage collection and cleaning services,” Wilson claimed, adding that “housing had not originally planned to open Spaulding at all, and therefore, it is understandable that Spaulding would not be as accommodating as the other quads.” Wilson attributes the lack of telephones, laundry, and vending machines, to the fact that Spaulding was supposed to be closed. He added that all 97 students would be moved out of Spaulding by next week. “We are aware of this situation, and can understand the students’ concern, but as 1 said, they were previously informed of the temporary housing facilities,” he stressed. He also expressed disappointment that the students did not bring their complaints to the Housing Office directly. “If students would voice their grievances, we could work to improve their situation a lot faster.” Student action The students in Spaulding, however, are not satisfied with Wilson’s assurances. They have notified both the Student Association (SA) and the Inter-Residence Council (IRC), and those organizations are now taking action toward improving the Spaulding situation. Bert Black, SA Sub-director of the Amherst Campus, is trying to arrange a financial credit agreement with housing, which would entitle the Spaulding residents to a discount in dormitory expenses to help compensate for the “inexcusable inconveniences” they have suffered. �News analysis Buffalo and the budget by Pat Quinlivan City Editor In the past few months, it has become obvious that New York City is a metropolis teetering on the brink of fiscal disaster. The largest city in the nation is staggering under a $3.3 billion debt, and is barely living from payday to payday on loans and bond sales. The Municipal Assistance Corporation (Big Mac), which was formed over the summer by state and city officials, has not proven to be the life-saver that many hoped it would j)e. large banks have refused to advaift:?' loans to New York because they can see no way for the city to pay them back. For one thing, the New York City fathers allowed their debt to rise to astronomical proportions, through adroit juggling of the books. Unfortunately, this only served to hide the debt, not to reduce it. No defaults But in Buffalo, the “Queen City,” John Conway of the Division of the Budget told The Spectrum that, “We appropriate money every year for our debt payments, and we have never defaulted.” Conway indicated that the budgets for both this and the next fiscal year allow for the coverage of debt payments. Another of New York’s problems concerns the size of its payroll, which was 75 percent between the early 1960’s and the present. In addition to this, a number of strikes by municipal employees raised the average salaries of many city workers dramatically. Now, Mayor Beame has found it necessary to cut the city work force drastically, or at least he has threatened to make such cuts. Unfortunately for Beame, the workers have responded with wildcat strikes. expanded by approximately “Master Plan” New York City Mayor Abraham Beame and Governor Hugh Carey recently came up with a “master plan” for cooperation between the city and the state, but even this might prove to be too little, too late. With $441 million in short-term notes due on September 15, and with a $102 million payroll to meet on September 12, it is growing ever more likely that only federal aid will be able to pull New York out of its hole, if indeed anything can. What happened in New York that didn’t happen in other cities; that didn’t happen Pensior fund In Buffalo, the rate of increase of the in Buffalo, for example. reason municipal payroll has been held within the past decate.

If, however, the voters reject the referendum, “I don’t know what we’ll do,” Conway said. Beyond this, the crisis in which New York finds itself will have a direct effect on other cities like Buffalo when they go to borrow money for the next fiscal year. “Our rates will go up,” said Conway, and this will put still more pressure on harried mayors and city managers across the country. For New York, drowning in a sea of red ink, the immediate problem is one of survival. Cities like Buffalo are safe for now, but they are watching what happens to New York, and are trying to pull their belts just one notch tighter. these extremes. One thing that continues to hang over the heads of Mayor Makowski and the Buffalo Common Council is the question of funding the pension fund. Presently, Buffalo is paying its pensions through a property tax by special permission of.the State Legislature. Permission has also been given by the Legislature to tax property to pay for next year’s pension fund.

So far. Mayor Stanley Makowski has tried to find a reasonable alternative to both of by Fredda Cohen Feature Editor Crime on campus is expected to increase during the school year because of the greater number of students residing in the Ellicott Complex, according to Assistant Director of Campus Security Lee Griffin. Twenty-four crimes have already been reported since the semester began. Since Kllicott was first occupied last year, it has had a much higher crime rate than either the Governors Residence Halls or Main Street dorms. This is attributed to the many entrances on both the first floor and the plaza level. Arsen, assaults and grand larcenies have decreased in past years, but the number of robberies and burglaries, both break-in crimes, and criminal mischief, harassment and grand larceny have increased. Break-ins “The biggest problem is that students leave the doors opened. There is a desire to have this open free living structure. This facilitates break-ins,” Griffin observed. One such incident occurred last Saturday when a Resident Advisor (RA) left the door of his room open, fell asleep for five minutes, and woke up to find his wallet missing. “As an RA, 1 was told by my head resident to keep the door open so that people would be free to walk in,” he explained. After questioning people on his floor, he reported the theft to the head resident, who mentioned that he, too, might have been ripped off that week. There has not been a reported rape on campus since 1971. However, rapes and other sexual assaults have occurred off campus. Campus Security co-sponsored a symposium with the nursing department last April dealing with rape prevention. Crime prevention Although Griffin maintains that there is not a large recorded rape problem on campus, he suggests that people be cautious. “It’s always a good idea to walk with someone else late at night We have no hideous crimes on campus to support this, but one doesn’t want to become our first statistic.” Campus Security is placing greater emphasis on crime prevention this year. In addition to the guards who patrol the dorms at night, a plainclothes officer plus two uniformed officers will act as liaisons between students, Security and the Housing Office. They will hold floor meetings to suggest preventive measures and hang warning posters. “People have been more sensitive to security and have been reporting more crimes,” claimed Charles Brunskill, Campus Security’s technical associate. “We are becoming more expedient through this and more technical equipment.” Security obstacles However, Campus Security still claims to be understaffed, and has eliminated several programs, such as the student security-aide program, which called for University identification before entering a dormitory. “I don’t think that it will affect the crime rate, but it will affect people’s perception of security,” Griffin noted, adding, “It would have been impossible to man all the doors of the Ellicott Complex even under the best budget conditions.” Minority and foreign students tend not to report crimes as frequently as white students, according to a report on residence hall security. The report infers that foreign students fear their visas will be affected, while minority students harbor unfavorable attitudes to law enforcers. Crime breakdown The security policy depends upon the type of crime that occurs and ensuing reactions on the part of the community, explained Griffin. Some dorm residents are requesting more officers, but others feel threatened seeing uniformed officers on campus. More non-students have been apprehended for crimes on campus than students. In 1974, the crime breakdown was 105 non-students, 45 students and one staff member. Brunskill attributed the greater number of non-students to difficulty in getting one student to prosecute another. Dormitories are now the highest security priority. “We have to get more out of each individual officer, and people must respond to them,” Griffin noted. ilmns. 3 photos Open 11) and S3 (S SO each additional with original order) Wcdncsd. d Ihursdavs I 1 a m Wednesday, 10 September 1975 .

The main purpose of the event, in addition to letting people know about the CAC’s work, is to enlist new volunteers in its many programs. Project heads, coordinators of CAC’s several organizational divisions, and at least one assistant director of the group will be present to answer questions about CAC, and to sign up new volunteers. CAC celebrated its tenth birthday this past February, and in that time has grown from a few dozen people in a War-On Poverty inspired program to over two thousand volunteers involved in a multi-faceted attack on society’s problems. The involvement of large numbers of students last year made CAC the second largest organization of its kind in the country, second only to the Federal Government’s ACTION program (which includes VISTA and the Peace Corps) in its number of active volunteers. Besides projects throughout Western New York that last year drew over 2000 volunteers, CAC is offering seven four-credit courses through the University’s Office of Urban Affairs for students who have already done volunteer work through CAC or similar groups.

Part I deals with prison conditions and events leading to the rebellion. by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor Attica, New York is a quiet, semi-rural community where nothing much out of the ordinary ever happens. Its inhabitants say it’s a nice, peaceful place to settle down and raise a family, far from the hustle and turmoil of the cities. The only thing which sets it apart from countless other small communities in upstate New York is that its largest industry and employer is the Attica State Correctional Facility, whose presence the people of Attica have “learned to live with.” The misery of the thousands of inmates within its walls, the violence that has plagued them, and the substandard living conditions prevalent in the institution generally affect their lives very little. As for their feelings about the inmates, most regard them as aliens; violent, potentially dangerous beings who “deserve what they’re getting” in jail, according to Tom-Wicker in his book, A Time to Die. Overcrowding The awesome solidarity of the walls surrounding Attica prison conveyed a false sense of security to someone on the outside looking in during the summer of 1971. Anyone on the inside inmate, guard and administrator felt the tension brewing alike before the September long rebellion. The poor living conditions within the facility mainly stemmed from intense overcrowding. About 2250 men were crammed into an institution only designed to hold a maximum of about 1600. Prison guards expressed concern over this situation, as well as uneasiness over the “new” type of inmate at Attica. In 1971,51 percent of Attica’s inmate population was black, and 9 percent was Puerto Rican. 40 percent of the inmates were under 30 years of age, 70 percent had - been in jail before, and 62 percent were imprisoned for violent crimes Different Culture In addition, about 80 percent of the inmates were from New York, Syracuse, Rochester, and Buffalo. They were veterans of the ghetto, the drug culture, the urban streets, with political and social experiences totally alien to their overseers. Compounding this was the presence of “ringleaders” who had been transferred from other prisons after attempting to organize revolts. The presence of these veterans of the New York City Tombs and Auburn Prison uprisings also made the guards uneasy. There had never been a major revolt in Attica Prison. A dining hall demonstration was settled with tear gas in 1957, a brief “sit-in” in the same year and another in 1962 were put down with no major trouble. In 1970 there was a non-violent strike to protest commissary prices and metal shop wages, which in 1971, still averaged only about $.65 per day. Change of attitude But even more disquieting to the Attica guards and officials was the evident change in the attitude of the inmates. Previously, racial, religious, and ethnic tensions had been high among the inmates, creating divisions which practically cancelled out any hope for mass unity. But their were signs of increased understanding and communication between the Black Muslims, Black Panthers, Young Lords, Native Americans and white inmates. In any situation where one person or group seeks to dominate another, division among the dominated is always welcomed, and sometimes even fostered, by those above them. The guards.no doubt, liked seeing the inmates pitted against’ each other, diverting their frustrations and hatred to petty feuds and rivalries. George Jackson Memorial Glaring evidence of the absence of such division came on the day following the death of San Quentin inmate George Jackson. Most of the inmates refused to believe the official story that Degrees The deadlines for filing “Application for Degree” forms are October 17, 1975 if you expect to graduate in January, and February 27, 1976 if you expect to graduate in June, the office of Admissions and Records announced.

As a result, a “memorial” for the slain inmate was held on the morning of August 22 by the Attica prisoners. Over 800 inmates on the first breakfast shift appeared in the ditfing hall and sat silently, ominously, without touching their food. Each wore black somewhere on his clothing. Prison guards and officials knew that such a demonstration required leadership, and unity. The uneasiness grew. A fruitless exchange of correspondence between New York’s Commissioner of Correctional Facilities Russell Oswald and the “Attica Liberation Faction,” beginning with a petition demanding a number of prison reforms, left many inmates bitter. Having lost their faith after negotiating within “the system” during that hot, frustrating, summer, Oswald’s visit to Attica on September 2 proved to the “the last straw.” of inmate mail and begun night-vocational training for a limited number of inmates. He begged for time to institute such improvements as law libraries for the prisoners, better training for the guards, extended work release programs, and better vocational training. Empty promises He met with prison superintendent Vincent Mancusi and a prisoner representative, at which time he promised reforms were on the way. He claimed he had already loosened censorship Before hurrying away to his wife’s bedside, Oswald recorded a message for the prisoners which was broadcast over the prison communication system. Many felt insulted that he had not addressed them directly; ailing some smashed their headphones against the walls of their cells in rage. A week later, on September 8, Herbert Blyden one of the signers of the Liberation Faction wrote to Senator John petition Dunne, Chairperson of the New York Senate Committee on Crime and Correction, that “all we received were promises of — — change.” Too many promises not kept; too much frustration and unresolved rage. Later that day, Attica Prison erupted. The UUAB Music Committee announces its first meeting Friday afternoon Sept. 12 at 5 pm in Rm 261 Norton.

Women are seen gloating over newly-waxed floors, and gleaming with pride over freshly-laundered clothes. Housework is not a chore for these women, but a delightful task which they accept with joy. We see brides floundering around in laundry rooms and fumbling over pots, while the more experienced housewives hip them to the tricks of domestic life.

But the pity of it is that many of these girls will grow up trying to live up ter these roles, and will suddenly find that someone lied to them. Doing the laundry and cleaning the oven will turn out to be one big drag. Making oneself physically attractive will prove increasingly difficult after spending so much time doing housework. And for those children whose immediate lives contradict what the media presents to them as reality, the problems are that much greater. Masculine soap With so much attention focused on women, the masculine stereotype is often ignored. Many advertisements, however, depend On the public’s acceptance of traditional male roles. Strength, intelligence, and lack of emotional reaction characterize the male in the media. He is the provider, the protector and the guiding force behind the world. Beer advertisements are notorious for using these qualities to sell their product. Men are seen appreciatively gulping down a mug of beer with the fellows, after a hard day’s work or a good game of football. (The women get to test out the coffee.) Campbell soups has invented an entire line of soups for men: “The Manhandlers;” hearty, beefy, chunky soups, so masculine. Tobacco companies also prey upon the sexy loner wh©-can attract the demurest of /emales simply by offering her a Tiparillo. Men serve one more function in television and radio commercials, and that is to reconfirm and explain what the women demonstrate. They are the voice of expertise. Actors sit behind desks in white coats and the public, especially children, accept them as authority figures. They are what’s going on. Male announcers always have the final word, despite the nature of the product. Miss Suzy: helpless These are the ways in which the adult world is depicted to children. The schools too, aid the process of perpetuating such sexual myths. Most children’s books outdo the TV commercials when it comes to presenting the sexes.

Page nine �i Editorial Obligation not met With the high cost of living on campus nowadays, the Housing Office has a fundamental obligation to provide decent, clean facilities to all dormitory residents. But when 97 students, most of whom are freshmen and transfers, moved into the Spaulding Quadrangle in the Ellicott Complex two weeks ago, they found that this was not necessarily the case. Instead of well-maintained, modern, working facilities, they were greeted with broken showers, no telephones, empty laundry and vending machine rooms, no lounge furniture, inadequate lighting, and they were not greeted by Resident Advisors. Although Housing claims the students were notified in advance by mail that they would be placed in temporary space, it seems that the four summer months, during which time Ellicott was unoccupied, should have been adequate time for preparing rooms that were fit for living. And if the above-mentioned inconveniences aren't enough, the confusion and frustrations that always seem to accompany the first month of the fall semester will be further compounded for these students by a mass reshuffling of beds next week. We understand the problems Housing must encounter in making its transition to the Amherst Campus. However, there is really no excuse for locating students in living conditions they consider "deplorable" and Housing at least owes them a rebate on their dormitory expenses to compensate for the inconveniences they have suffered.

The Spectrum Vol. 26, No. 10 Wednesday, Editor-in-Chief — 10 September 1975 Amy Dunkin Guest Opinion by Buffalo Committee for Chilean Democracy The Chilean Junta’s economic problems have been accentuated recently by the difficulties it has had in renegotiating its foreign debt. Despite U:S. pressure, many European countries (led by England and Italy) have refused to discuss new terms with Chile until human rights in that country are respected. Chile has a foreign debt of $4 billion, which is the second highest per capita debt in the world. Without new loans, it cannot meet its interest payments. The economic disaster can be translated into human terms. While a handful of people are getting wealthy in Chile, most people are near starvation. In June the minimum wage was so low and prices so high that two pounds of bread cost one-third of a day’s minimum wage; two pounds of sugar cost 2/3, and one quart of cooking oil cost more than half. Over half of the Chilean salaried workers receive the minimum wage. Of course, in this situation there is a lot of discontent. The banned political parties of the Chilean left have organized a Resistance which carries out underground activities against the military. This Resistance, although still weak militarily, is politically strong. Even sections of the ruling class have begun to speak out against the military Junta. In May, the head of the Christian Democrats, Eduardo Frei, carne out publicly against the Junta. Frei was President of Chile from 1964-1970, and from 1970-1073 he led the Christian Democrats in opposition to Salvatore Allende, an opposition which was largely responsible for the coup. But the Junta refuses to bend to popular criticism. In August it came out with a ridiculous account and macabre to for the story disappearance of some of its prisoners. The Junta claimed that 1 19 prisoners were not prisoners at all but had been killed in Argentina in gun battles with the Argentinian police or with other Chilean leftists. This story was so ludicrous that it revoked an international outcry, and the Argentinian police denied any confrontation with Chileans. The newspapers which first published the story in Argentina and Brazil were soon revealed to be fake. The sad truth is that the Junta probably murdered all 119 prisoners and created Transport - Business Manager Arts Backpage Campus City Composition Bill Maraschiello Randi Schnur Ronnie Selk Laura Bartlett Howard Greenblatt Pat Quinlivan Alan Most Fredda Cohen Feature — Howard Koenig Feature .

Wednesday, 10 September 1975 which showed how Richard Nixon had been involved directly in attempts by the CIA to stop Allende. Only a few days after Allende’s election, Nixon met with Richard Helms, head of the CIA, John Mitchell. Attorney-General, and Henry Kissinger. Nixon, who was reportedly very upset, told Helms “to come up with some ideas” to get rid of Allende. Money, said Nixon, was no object. One idea put forward involved kidnapping the head of the Chilean Army, Rene Schneider, and blaming it on the extreme left. This would hopefully spark a military coup, they reasoned. Since Schneider and his neutrality would be out of the way, Schneider was kidnapped and resisted. The whole plot was was killed when exposed, and the Chilean right was shown to be behind it. ;The CIA had failed, but it kept on working financing anti-Allende strikes by store and truck owners to create enough chaos so the rest of the Chilean military would intervene. The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence is looking into the Chile case, and have subpoened Nixon’s papers and tapes concerning Chile. So far the Ford administration has refused to turn them over, in yet a further cover-up of what actually happened in Chile. We are reminded of ~C1A Director Helms’ reply to Senator Stuart Symington on Feb. 7, 1974, under oath. Symington: “Did you try in the CIA to overthrow the government of Chile?” Helms: “No, sir.” Symington: “Did you have any money passed to the opponents of Allende?’, v/ Helms: “No, sir.” Justice Department is currently The considering perjury charges against Helms.

In the U.S. we have a special responsibility for the Chilean tragedy. We continue to learn more and more about CIA involvement in overthrowing Allende. Only a few weeks ago, in August, The New York Times published a story For the second year in a row, 1 would like to thank the meatheads at Campus Services for displaying a delightful sense of humor in designing our bus schedules. I’d also like to thank the people responsible for allocating the money for this year’s busing, since it is clearly inadequate. 1 realize now that it is far from obvious that if there are more people living at Ellicott this year, there are going to be more buses needed to get them to and from classes. Vet, if I can figure that out, you’d think the people who design the budget could. So, I’d like to know how they can justify adding only one bus to this year’s schedule, particularly when that bus runs from Ridge Lea to Amherst, a route which was not overcrowded last year. Even with the extra buses they’ve added for the morning rush hours, people are still packed in like sardines. And the only non-crowded bus I’ve been on all year was a Ridge Lea bus. Amherst buses are always full. Maybe soon someone will realize that more buses are necessary and add them to the schedule. My other complaint is about the times the buses leave on Saturday and Sunday nights. After leaving the Conference Theater on Saturday night, 1 checked the bus schedule to find that a bus had left at 11:15 p.m. The next bus after that was fifty-five minutes later. Then there was a bus five minutes after that. Now, what possible reason could they have for scheduling a fifty-five minute wait followed by a five minute wait? Did they want to give the drivers a chance to meet each other? They could have scheduled the buses thirty minutes apart like last year. J«Jot only was that easy to remember, but it made sense! I hope I Won’t have to write another letter like this next year. Maybe by then someone will have paid attention to all the complaints. Paige Miller �fronr here to ther by Garry Wills Mrs. Ford’s candor is being used against her husband. It is fascinating to watch the sophisticates of the right admit that she didn’t say anything wrong, exactly; she just abused her position to give aid and comfort to those who might say something wrong sometime. It is like the sophisticates’ tortuous use of Joseph McCarthy’s lies to get at people who were not Communists, exactly, but not good types nonetheless. Mrs. Ford said she would not be surprised if her daughter had an affair. She should not have been surprised, though, that people used this against her. According to Richard Reeves’ forthcoming book, A Ford. Not a Lincoln, even the servants of Walter Annenberg objected when one of Ford’s sons brought “a live-in girlfriend” to stay at the Annenberg mansion during Ford’s vice presidency. But Mrs. Ford’s comments are being used by those right-wingers who want some excuse any old to say that only Ronald Reagan deserves excuse “conservative” support in the 1976 election. If Ford broke off relations with Russia and China, put J. Edgar Hoover’s grotesque mummy on idolatrous display, and made John Wayne Secretary of State, these people would still have to conclude, with great sadness, that he was not a “real” conservative and he must be replaced by Reagan. The hypocrisy at work is not a pretty thing to see. Yet I cannot feel very sorry for Mr. Ford, remembering how he used the same pecksniffian devices in 1970. It is surprising that no one seems to - — have remembered, in the current gabble of vindictive piety, how upset Ford once got at the sight of naked breasts in copies of Avant-Garde and Evergreen Review He was under orders, at the time, to punish foes of the Haynesworth and Carswell nominations by instituting impeachment proceedings against Justice William O. Douglas. When his aides brought him copies of the Douglas articles in Avant-Garde and Evergreen Review Ford discovered, to his horror, that the magazines also contained an article called “The Decline and Fall of the Female Breast.” After his aides revived-him, by the liberal use of smelling salts and hymn books, he felt it a duty to show everyone what “feelthy” pictures Justice Douglas’ prose had been put to bed with. In the Senate speech that Ford cribbed from notes sent to him by John Mitchell, he said that the words in these magazines were even worse, if you can imagine it, than the pictures. The pictures, admittedly, “are perhaps more shocking than the postcards that used to be sold only in the back alleys of Paris and of Panama City, Panama.” But the mere titles of the articles are “so vulgarly playing on double meaning that I will not repeat them aloud.” That smutty stuff sure is contagious. In no time Ford was wondering, in his speech, why the magazine was called Evergreen: “Perhaps the name has some secret erotic significance.” There is nothing so shockable as a demagogue in full cry. So as the Pecksniffs circle in on him and Mrs. Ford, I wonder if he ever reflects that this is the very thing he did to Justice Douglas. , Single RA Is in double rooms To the Editor. Housing has been one of the major problems for University students during the last two years. Off-campus housing costs at least as much as the I hate to hitchhike To the Editor I’m a Western New Yorker who lived in New York City over the summer. I’m also a non-driver and New York, unlike Buffalo, is a community that has consideration for people like me. The buses ran every three or four minutes in Manhattan and if that wasn’t fast enough, the subway could get you to your destination even quicker. Back here in Buffalo, the buses run on the main avenues every half hour during the day. At night they simply don’t run. The only alternative is to hitchhike. One thing Western New York does have is plenty of private passenger cars. Thousands and thousands of them. x aot I I sincerely hope that Metro will attempt to make bus runs much more frequent, that Metro will extend runs to the evening hours, and that Metro will again make it possible to take a bus to the suburbs as well as to downtown, A rapidly expanded service may lose a great deal of money at the present time, but the price of gas has only one way to go and as soon as it hits a dollar a gallon even the die-hard motor heads of Western New York might condescend to sit next to other human beings on the way to work and school. It’s really not that difficult to get used to. residential halls. Therefore more and more students are switching to campus accommodations, but due to the insufficient number of rooms available on the campus, there is a tremendous number of students that actually cannot find any place to stay! Moral: For what reason do the (Resident Assistants) have a double room? I hope that some action will be taken! “RA’s” Herman L.

Contracts have already been signed with writer Elie Weisel (co-sponsored with the Jewish Student Union) for September 25; humorist and author Dick Gregory (co-sponsored with the Black Student Union) for October 2; and Michael Meeropol, son of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg (eo-sponsored with American Studies) for December commentator, , What would you do to give this campus a sense of community? Do you know that there is an organization that would welcome your suggestions on improving this community and would try to implement them? Do you know that there is a group that cares about you, you as a person who has you as who you are and as who you want to be. Indeed, worth, beauty, tapped and untapped potentials this group does not desire to convert you, but serve you, challenge you, search with you, rejoice with in short, to love you and be loved by you. We at Wesley Foundation have tried you, share your sorrows to get this message acorss to you in many ways, and with some success. But there are many of you who have not heard, or have been suspicious about what you heard, or have just not believed what you heard. Several people have asked, “What is Wesley Foundation?” Wesley Foundation is a campus ministry we are attempting to provide a sense of belonging. And we think whose main concern is community every person most wants an environment where he/she feels he/she belongs; that is his/her that community person also achieves community. A partially within the self, by actualizing his/her potential We believe Wesley Foundation can be that kind of community for you. While we are sponsored by the United Methodist Church we are open to anyone. We intend our ministry to be in loving service to, with, meeting needs, sharing joy, discussing life goals and ideas, searching for a life style that and for people builds bridges instead of walls, that enables love instead of war, that enables growth. We do not always succeed we most definitely make mistakes. But most of those who have been around us belieye our You Gotta Friendi That may sound corny, but just think about how important your friends are slogan - — — — 3. - - — — to you. To keep this community alive we have each week a free supper on Sundays at 6:00 p.m. (the place is noted on the Backpage of each Friday’s The Spectrum.) Some people have wondered why more of you have not eaten at these free meals; and others have suggested you do not want something for nothing; and we do have free suppers. And, others probably think there is some “catch.” Well, there is no “catch” week to help feed the world's hungry. We do those who want to pay can donate whatever they wish each but we wash dishes between supper and the program so that those who have programs after supper want to leave can do so without any pressure to stay. The programs vary from discussion on music, film discussions, issue discussions, “group process” sessions, a game night with volleyball and others. We also have worship once a month for those who want it. We are always open to suggestions for other programs. For those who want regular worship services we will be glad to suggest the church that is closest to real study and you. If you want services on campus please call 634-7129. There will be a Bible study to place and be announced. open discussion, not Bible agreement passed off as study time There will also be special events.

Stone and Congresswoman Bella Abzug are presently negotiating contracts with Speakers Bureau Chairman Robby Cohen fot appearances in October. As part of a major overhaul of a Speakers Bureau program that was often swamped in controversy last year, Cohen has attempted to combine “education and entertainment.” By purposely avoiding bringing any so-called, expensive “big-name” personalities to campus, Cohen has managed to engage speakers costing significantly less than S2000 each and who “have something important to say and will make people think.” Cohen planned much of this program during the summer with the help of a six-member committee and various student organizations. However, he encourages additional suggestions from any interested students. “I don’t want to make the decisions by myself,” he declared. — Chile memorial The Buffalo Committee for Chilean Democracy is sponsoring a demonstration Thursday, September 11, the second anniversary of the coup that toppled the Popular Unity government of Chile, headed by Salvadore Allende. A picket-line will be held at The Mentholatum Co., 1360 Niagara St., to protest its recent investments in Chile. On Friday, September 12, at 8 p.m. in Diefendorf 146, Attorney Jose Antonio Lugo will present his eye-witness account of the April trial of 13 Chilean Resistance leaders. A film about Victor Jara, the popular Chilean folksinger who was murdered after the coup, will also be shown. The local committee also hopes to bring Laura Allende, sister of Salvadore Allende, if the State Department grants her a visa. A fdm about a Chilean Prison camp will be shown in the Conference Theatre on Thursday, September 16 at 7:30 p.m. The film was made by East Germans posing as West Germans to gain entry to the camp. — — — — — — - - "Put a little sunshine into your {Top Spin Racquet Shoppe J entitles This coupon | I you to ■ 15% DISCOUNT ON ALL RACQUETS, CLOTHES, AND ATHLETIC SHOES $2.35 For Wilson or Dunlop Tennis Balls (Limit - 1 I I of 3 cans per student) 520 Amherst St. I 674- 6488 (Between Elmwood and Grant) Offer expires Oct. 1, 1975 !

Ketter insisted that the facilities are designed for the use by students and staff of the University, and not to compete with area businesses. “The University could build whatever we wanted by ourselves, and Amherst couldn’t tax us one cent,” Ketter declared. “We just wanted this bill (permitting tax-free status) because we could build the facilities faster if we had private builders and developers doing it.” The bill was written for the State University and members of Governor Carey’s staff by attorneys, and given to McFarland and Fremming to sponsor in of Amherst... With the possible exception of the hotel, all the facilities will serve only those who live and work on the campus, and, therefore, will not need large attention grabbing signs which can be seen from roads near campus. Traffic problems cited Part of the original intention of the commercial development was to provide services to people on the campus, which would hopefully ameliorate traffic problems caused by people otherwise seeking these services off campus. The planned 150 room hotel, the only facility intended for use by people outside the University community, will have 20.000 square feet of office space, facilities for a faculty-alumni club, and possibly 20.000 square feet of student activity space. Latona cautions that, given the financial position of the University, this last figure is subject to a great deal of a large development competing other businesses —continued from page 1— change Asked about the prospects of student employment in the planned commercial facilities, Latona said that any stipulation calling for employment of students were impractical because of the number of limits imposed on the businesses which will occupy them. But Latona was “sure the largest percentage of employees would be students” if only because students are the most readily available work force in the area. Ketter adamant Latona said he had consulted with Student Association (SA) President Michele Smith and SA Director of Student Activities Doug Cohen on student employment and other issues. The clash between President Robert Ketter and the Amherst Town Council began when merchants and town officials reportedly became upset over the prospect their respective legislative houses. Bill recalled McFarland recalled the bill after with representatives of the Town of Amherst who charged the bill was being “rammed” through because they were certain to oppose it. Town board members also complained they were not consulted by state or SUNY officials while consulting the legislation was being prepared, charges which Latona characterized as “garbage,” McFarland eventually agreed to amend the bill to guarantee the town payments instead of taxation 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. Latona explained that the idea for commercial development dates back almost to the initial plans for the new campus. When it was thought that the University would be able to generate vast economic activity in Amherst, the Urban Development Corporation’s (UDC) Audubon project made plans for extensive development around Lake LaSalle. At that time, even company offices and additional housing for employees was anticipated. Since then, Latona added, the University recognized that its ability to spur commercial development was limited, and, in 1973, the University and UDC jointly commissioned a study of commercial development just for the Amherst campus.

He owns the school record for the 100 yard dash and the long jump. Last year he scored 13.75 points in the Buffalo Invitational and 13 points in the New York State Track and Field Championships, enough to earn him the Coaches’ Trophy for most points at both meets. Stephens also competes regularly in both the 220 yard dash and the triple jump. In fact, last year he swept all four of his events at the Big Four meet against Niagara, Canisius, and Buffalo State and at the New York State Track and Field Championships. Sponsored by the Council on International Studies -Santos Faddoul, Stephens Young paced the wrestling Bulls to another year of national prominence. Off the mats, Young was an outspoken supporter of intercollegiate athletics and was named president Young second Second in the balloting for of the fledgling organization Athlete of the Year was wrestler Students for the Future of and soccer player Jim Young.

Tennis Bulls Strong team set for successful season by Paige Miller Assistant 3:00 pm Room 320 Fillmore/ North Campus tournament. Young holds Buffalo career records for goals scored and total points, and he also put together an amazing string of ten consecutive games with one or more goals over a two year span. As a wrestler, Young was undefeated in dual meets during the 1974-75 season. With help Shorts Editor “I think we’ve got one of the strongest teams in Western New York. That’s not bad for a school with no scholarships,” said Bulls’ tennis coach Pat McClain after his team opened its season on Saturday by thrashing Cortland 8-1. Last year, McClain’s first as coach, Buffalo compiled an 11-3 record (counting both fall and spring competition). McClain had never coached a collegiate team before, but did have experience as a tennis professional at the Buffalo Tennis Center, a job he still holds. Virtually all of last year’s team is back, with the exception of Keith Karger, who did not return to school this year. But McClain’s job will be far from easy, because the Bulls have scheduled thirteen matches in their five week season, more than they have ever played before. Running wild “Our top four are in very good shape,” said McClain. “The rest have the strokes down but still need conditioning.” Toward that end he has players doing wind sprints and running two miles at each practice, but mostly, he just lets them play tennis. If the first match is any indication, this policy has paid off well. Buffalo did not lose more than three games in any singles set, although the overwhelming nature of Saturday’s victory did come as a bit of a surprise. “They (Cortland) hit the ball really well in practice,” said Buffalo’s Rob Gurbacki. “I don’t know what happened to them.” Burbacki won his match 6-1, 6-0. Most of the other Bulls thought the match would be tougher than it was. Buffalo’s only loss of the day was suffered by the third doubles team of A1 Boardman and A1 Syracuse. McClain later noted that he was still experimenting to find the right combination and the right man for sixth singles, although Steve Blumberg won easily at that spot. What a pair The Bulls’ coach has found the right men for his first doubles pair. Rich Abbott and Randy Murphy. The two played together in local tournaments all summer and reached at least the quarter-finals in every tournament they entered. They are currently one of the top seeded doubles teams in Western New York. Abbott and Murphy had no trouble with Cortland’s best doubles team, winning 6-1,6-2. Despite Buffalo’s fine performance, McClain was still apprehensive about this Saturday’s match against Oneonta. “They might be the toughest team we’ll face all year,” he said. It will be the first meeting ever between the two teams. Today’s match against Buffalo State has been cancelled because the Bengals do not have a team. Wednesday, 10 September 1975 . The Spectrum .

ADVERTISEMENT * MORE 4 JOBS? THERE ISA WAY Nine year# ago near Lexing- ton, N.C., PPG Industries converted a 150-acre farm into a sleek new factory. Today that factory employs more than 1000 people and produces 140 million pounds of glass fibers a year for everything from draperies to lightweight automobile body parts. On Michigan’s Escanaba River, wood pulp is fed into one end of a new Mead Corp. papermaking machine that almost fills a building a quarter of a mile long. At the other end emerges a band of paper 25 feet wide. Up to 600 workers harvest the wood for this plant, while 1 too make the paper —annually enough paper to cover a i6-lane highway around the earth at the equator. At New Johnsonville, Tenn., DuPont built a plant to produce titanium dioxide, the safe whitener that has replaced lead in paint and is used in scores of other products including paper and textiles. The year it opened, the plant provided jobs for more than 300 local residents. Now, nearly three times that number are on the payrolls which ran about $14 million last year. These three factories are the result of what economists call capital investment. Their cost adds up to a huge sum —approximately $250 million. Each was financed with retained earnings (the funds that industry has left after paying all the costs of doing business, including taxes and dividends to stockholders), — • • — REPRINTED FROM THE AUGUST or borrowed funds, or both Such capital investment is what our forefathers called “thinking ahead.” When we still lived on farms or in villages, no one but a fool would consume all his garden, herds and flocks. A smart man kept something for breeding stock and seed. But for some years now our coun try has lived as if this commonsetise wisdom applied to everybody except us. Between i960 and 1973 we reinvested an average of 13.6 percent of our real gross domestic product in new plants and equipment, compared with 18.2 percent in France, 20 percent in Germany and 29 per- in Japan. Some 60 to 70 percent of our existing manufacturing capacity has been installed since i960, versus 85 percent of Japan’s. While our government was increasing demand by incurring deficits and voting new money payments to our people, we ran our old, less-efficient factories above their proper operating level. Nat- cent urally, this caused costs and prices spiral. If we arc to pull out of this recession and avoid worse ones, we must begin now to invest much more in job-creating plants and equipment. But how? Most economists believe to one solution lies in substantially increasing the investment tax credit, which allows an industry to deduct from its federal income tax a percentage of the cost of new assets and equipment (not including build- 1975 ISSUE OF READER'S DIGEST Page eighteen . The Spectrum . Wednesday, 10 September 1975 With today’s unemployment and with millions of young people getting ready to enter the job market, we must make it possible for companies to invest far more of what they , earn today so that they can produce more tomorrow ings). Congress recently raised the credit from seven to ten percent. Respected economist Pierre Rinfret believes that we should permanently enact a 20-percent federal investment tax credit. This would put us on a par with most of our major foreign industrial competitors. More liberal depreciation allowances would also help. Present tax laws assume useful lives for buildings and equipment during which companies stretch out tax deductions for their cost. But the assumed lives often exceed the period of years when the buildings and equipment arc truly competitive. Thus, business frequently finds itself still trying to recover original cost for buildings and equipment which progress has rendered obsolete. To raise the level of capital investment and create jobs we must also change popular attitudes. Too often when a new factory or power plant is proposed, our response has been “Don’t put it here.” Nobody can quarrel with the need for informed concern for the environment, but nobody can quarrel, either, with the need for jobs. Consider the exhilarating benefits of capital investment in that PPG Industries plant in Lexington, N.C.: Horace Hill, 36, was born on a tobacco farm, had to quit school after the ninth grade, spent three years in the Air Force, got a low-paying mill job. Then PPG hired him and trained him to make and repair the $5000 platinum nozzles from which the molten glass is spun. He now heads a work force of ten. Carolyn Blevins, now 25, was working in the spraying department of a furniture factory when she got the chance to go to PPG as an “end finder,” a highly skilled job which involves finding thread ends which arc then twisted onto bobbins. ‘Tve worked lots of places where they let a woman do a man’s job—but they don’t pay you for it,” she says. “At PPG everybody’s treated the same.” Charles Clark, also 25, the son of a common laborer, is one of four men who oversee PPG’s huge glass furnaces. Eight years ago he was • • • to graduate from the black high school befor? Lexington desegregated all its schools. Today, Clark directs a staff of 40. The benefits from PPG are felt elsewhere. Surrounding factories and mills found they had to raise their pay scales to compete. For a while, labor was so scarce that Lexington came close to zero unemployment. According to U.S. Department of Commerce figures, the $10 million PPG paid last year in wages was spent by employes approximately like this: $1.8 million for food; $1.6 million for housing and household operation: $800,000 for clothing; $1.9 million for transportation, recreation and education; $1.9 million for taxes and Social Security; $600,000 for medical care; $200,000 for interest; and j million for evocytbing else, including savings. Beyond this, there’s a multiplier effect that operates whenever a new plant comes to town. By Bureau of Labor Statistics calculations, each job in manufacturing makes possible three other jobs. So when PPG’s Lexington roster last year passed the 1000 mark, the employes were supporting 3000 other workers, from bus drivers to doctors. Lexington can be proud of the new PPG plant. The low, central redbrick building, flanked by blue and white tent-like wings, is handsome architecturally, and inside, no woman keeps her kitchen looking nicer. If the United States is to regain its pre-eminence in the highly competitive industrial world and produce what we need with reasonably full employment and stable prices, thousands of new factories like this one will have to become solid lifegiving realities. Thus, it is vital that we allow American industry to recover the costs of new investment much more rapidly than is now possible. Only then will industry have the means to keep our economy prosperously expanding. among the last For reprints, write: Reprint Editor, The Reader's Digest, Plcasantville, N.Y. 10570.

In accordance with a legal interpretation by the SUNY Counsel, Executive Vice President Albert Somit informed the College that several courses which for “women provide only” enrollment violate HEW Title IX guidelines and/or the New York State Human Rights Law. Title IX, which went into effect on 1975, July 21, elucidates 1972 anti-sex a discrimination law which assures that no person be excluded from participation in any course or educational program on the basis of sex. Somit explained that unless WSC allows men access to five all-women traditionally including courses, the Women in introductory Contemporary Society (WSC 213), they will “simply be barred” from the University course offerings in January, 1976. Deadline changed The original deadline for compliance with Somit’s directive was August 15. However, this elicited a wave of protest by WSC The supporters, including President’s Committee on the Recruitment and Promotion of Women, American Studies, the Student Association, and large numbers of students and community members, who felt the summer date was politically calculated and did not allow for a fair or adequate defense of the Women’s Studies program. Somit said he moved the date up to October 15 since students had already registered last spring for fall semester WSC courses. Outraged at what they called a “blatant political attack with neither moral, educational or legal justification,” members of the Women’s Studies College maintained an in August newsletter that Title IX regulations were designed to “redress ingrained institutional discrimination against women,” and to establish affirmative action programs. with our “In accord to quality committment education for women and in our active concern with the elimination of discrimination against women. Women's Studies College can be viewed as a vital affirmative action program for women. Our program conforms with the spirit and letter of the law,” the newsletter states. Collegiate units, on the condition that it be revised to indicate whether “woman” and “women” are used as generic or exclusive terms, and that it expressly adopt the principles of academic freedom and equality of access to courses, demonstrate complaince with these provisions, and be reviewed 18 formally after months. Educationally valid In a statement issued January 3, 1974, Ketter conceded that there might be a need for a few courses restricted to women, but that they “should constitute a very small percentage of the total offerings of that unit.” He added that “the exclusion is clearly and directly related to the educational objectives of the course.” A spokesperson for Women’s Studies College said Friday that all WSC courses met the provisions of the charter, were Affirmative action The newsletter goes on to say granted approval bv the Division that the University has been of Undergraduate Education and “incredibly lax both in developing were proven educationally valid.

Day care center closed indefinitely because o cuts by Fredda-Cohen Feature Editor The Early Childhood Center (ECC), formerly the University Day Care Center, will remain closed indefinitedly despite hopes that it would reopen this fall. The center, which closed temporarily for the summer on May 16, is now permanently shut down, due to a $2.8 million dollar cut in the University budget, according to Executive Vice President Albert Somit. In a letter from William Baumer, assistant vice president for Academic Affairs dated June 12. parents were informed that the university pursued all possible alternatives for funding the center but without success. “If is as a consequence of these investigations that we have delayed providing this notice to you until this time,” the letter stated. “I hope that you will be able to make other arrangements for day care for your children while you pursue your studies,” Dr. Baumer added. However, no alternatives were mentioned. The lack of funds ends ECC's year-long struggle to exist. The original Day Care Center was first threatened last year when Sub-Board voted to eliminate its S23.000 allocation to compensate for its own reduced appropriations from the student governments. Special Committee Responding to appeals from day care supporters for S29.000 from the University, President Robert Ketter set up a twenty-two member —continued on page 19— —Santos �Commentary Shake-up in South Buffalo This South Keane people counter that 150 of Fire their signs have been ripped off has City Editor Depaitment Lieutenant William houses, but Conrad contends that In the future, when people Conrad challenging the Chairman the signs were removed by irate look back at this year’s local the County Legislature, homeowners, who objected to the elections, they may well refer to of machine’s arm-twisting party Richard Keane. 1975 as “The Year of the Conrad has been attacking the tactics.

University to absorb over $4 million in budget cats by Howard Greenblatt Campus editor The University will have to absorb nearly S4 million in budget cuts over the next two fiscal years. Details of how these cuts will be distributed were by University summer announced this administrators. Savings of S2.S35.000 for the current fiscal year, which began in July, were mandated by the Slate government earlier this year, bringing the total University expenditure ceiling to S82.895.600. The State's decision to slash the SUNY budget, which President Robert Ketter said "will have a serious impact on this campus." led to the formation of a University Budget Committee, comprised predominately of administrators, faculty, and several students. The Committee began meeting on almost a daily basis in Mid-June. Double role The Committee recommended to the President ways in which a “target dollar increase” of approximately $1.6 million (as a result of an enrollment increase of 595 students this year) “can most profitably be used to further the objectives of our institution.” Secondly, the Committee advised how the budget cuts for 1975-76, and 1976-77 (which will be at least $1,150,000, and perhaps and additional $750,000) will be absorbed. While the Committee’s proceedings were to have remained “strictly confidential,” informed sources from time to time made public only significant events. Serious effect Details of the 1975-76 budget cuts were announced by Executive Vice President Albert Somit on July 8. “Reductions were made primarily by the use of vacant lines, by the freezing of almost all new appointments, and by cutting allocations of temporary service and other-than-personal servjce funds,” Somit said in an open letter to the University Community. The 1976-77 budget cuts of at least $1,150,000 “will affect the Oniversity more severely in human terms,” Somit said, adding that “it would be impossible to absorb the cuts without program or —Santos Charles Fogel unit retrenchment.” Details of the 1976-77 cuts were then released in mid-July, but the “official” breakdown indicated only how much money each department would have to save, and not how they would actually save it. Coaching salary mess Actording to the Budget Committee’s proposals, the Faculty of Health Sciences, which funds the teaching and coaching salaries of the Department of Health Education, is slated to assume a $228,000 share of the total budget cuts. In order to partially absorb this cut, the Faculty of Health Sciences proposes to abandon its salary committments to athletic coaches in the field of Health Education, The Spectrum learned July 11.

Rhodes, former Kent State University President Robert I. White, and former National Guardsmen liable in the shooting at Kent State, in which four students were slain and nine wounded.

"He's still a murderer," cried Thomas Grace, one of the wounded students. It was not clear if he was referring to Rhodes or to one of the Guardsmen. Outside the courthouse. Defense Attorney Burt Fulton explained he felt “the Guardsmen just stood up there and told their story and the jury just believed them.” Attorneys for the prosecution told the jury the shooting was "an unprovoked and unwarranted action.” which deprived the students of their human and constitutional rights. The guardsmen claimed they were carrying out their proper duties on the campus and that firing into the crowd of demonstrators was an act of self defense.

Monday, 8 September 1975 �Bayh withdraws his support of Senate bill by Mike McGuire Contributing editor A proposed recodification of the federal criminal statutes, which has drawn heavy criticism from civil liberties groups for its allegedly repressive aspects, lost one of its original sponsors last week when Senator Birch Bayh asked his name be dropped from the bill. Bayh, a Democrat from Indiana and past Presidential hopeful, added that he would actively oppose Senate Bill 1 (S-l) if 11 different amendments he has .proposed are not included in the final version. While dealing with several areas of civil liberties, Bayh’s proposed amendments deal primarily with the secrecy provisions of the bill. Under the original version of the bill, which is still subject to change by the Judiciary Committee of the Senate or that Committee’s subcommittee on Criminal Codes and Procedures, disclosure of classified material to unauthorized persons can result in a jail term of three years and a $100,000 fine to the federal employee who releases the information. In addition, any reporter and/or editor printing the information is subject to the same penalty. Leaks An aide to Bayh told The Spectrum that one of Bayh’s proposed amendments attempts to differentiate between giving national security information to a foreign, perhaps hostile, power, and “leaking” embarassing information to nrespapers, as was done by Daniel Ellsberg in 1972’s Pentagon Papers case. Under Bayh’s amendment, military codes and ciphers, plans for actual military operations, information on weapons systems, and nuclear data would be protected from dissemination by criminal penalties. Improperly classified material that may be embarassing, but is not related to Rational security matters would not be subject to the same penalties for disclosure, according to the aide. In a statement issued last week announcing his withdrawal as a sponsir, Bayh said that “S-l is viewed by many as a symbol of repression,” and adopted that he was mistaken in his belief that he could change its objectionable aspects by being a sponsor.

Called an Alcohol Level Evaluation Road Tester (ALERT), the device can be carried in a patrol car and employed immediately upon an officer’s request to pull over to the curb. It is rectangular in shape and activated when a suspected drunken driver breathes into a nozzle at one end. One of three lights can be activated, according to the alcohol level in the subject’s system. A red light fails the driver, a yellow indicates warning and white light means he passes. If a suspect’s breath causes the red light to activate, he will be taken to a police station for the usual test. If the yellow light is activated, the suspect could be taken in, but that is up to the discretion of the police officer. - ask for a commuter. buffalo President Ford Not assassinated An attempted assassination of Gerald Ford in President Sacramento, California was aborted on Friday when Secret Service agents grabbed the gun from the suspect’s hand and wrestled her to the ground. Lynette Alice Fromme was charged with attempted murder of the President, a federal crime which carries a maximum penalty of life imprisonment, and is being held in the Sacramento jail. According to White House Press Secretary Ron Nessen, who was beside the President at the attempted moment of the assassination, a 'woman’s hand holding a gun appeared between two people in the crowd lining the sidewalk to shake hands with the President. Agent Larry Bruendorf, walking just behind Ford, who was at arms length from Fromme, grabbed the gun with his right hand and simultaneously grabbed the woman’s arm with his left hand. The President, unharmed but shaken, was escorted from the scene by Secret Service agents, who hurried him to the California State Capifol Uncertainty over click No one could say whether the gun clicked or whether Ms. Fromme had tried to pull the trigger but a witness to the incident said there was no audible click.

With fair year dubious editorial leadership has once again frequency, it will also be noted that what is going on Insensitive edict Since the inception of the Women's Studies College (WSC) five years ago, members of the College have encountered what appears to be an endless array of administrative stumbling blocks in their attempts to design an equitable program suited to the needs of women on this campus. Last fall, Women's Studies, along with every other existing Collegiate Unit, underwent an exhaustive scrutiny to a charter. Thanks obtain coveted administrative approval to the overwhelming support of hundreds of people sympathetic to the women's viewpoint, President Robert Ketter granted WSC a charter on the condition that it comply with certain provisions. It was also expressly stated that the College be reviewed formally for compliance after 18 months. The selective inclusion of several all-women courses was an integral part of the WSC curriculum then, as they are now. Ketter even conceded that such courses might be valid if academically justified. — Since January, Women's Studies College has met the conditions set forth in the charter. In addition to indicating with asterisks when the terms "woman" and "women" were used generically or specifically, all WSC courses received approval from the Division of Undergraduate Education resurrected something which probably should have died a normal death in the deep recesses of the dim past. Those of you confronting this creation for the first time may be confused and find the contents of this particular corner difficult to understand. Rest assured that you are no less confused than several generations of students, and the author, at least a fair portion of the time. What you see befory you, alas, is a tradition. Somewhere in the great library ■ of defunct magazines in the have heard of a l/t i- f) sky, you may short lived publication called Grump edited by Roger Price, a gentleman some of you trivia folk may recall as being the creator and chief practicioneer by Steese of Droodles, a somewhat arcane art form consisting of visual puns, so te speak. Anyway, the motto of Gruptp was something along the lines of “For People Who Are Against All The Dumb Things That Are Going On,” and the idea was for folks to write in about the things that they saw as being particularly stupid. It seems hard to understand why such an exceptionally fine idea should fail, but perhaps it was just too far ahead of its time. When I first began writing this concotion for The Spectrum I was considerably angrier than 1 am now or at least it was more manifest. Back then the fact that people could do things as willfully destructive to each other as we are capable of, in emotional and/or physical terms made me angry in a way that I never bothered to examine. Over the course of the years I have attained a few minor my Such as my anger. into insights from I paranoia. figure conies radicalism/liberalism that if there is any way that somebody is going to gel fucked over, 1 may well be next in line, and I want that abuse done away with before they get to , , Gl/vlX . (3 ... (DUE). But now the administration has formulated yet another condition. This summer. Executive Vice President Albert Somit (speaking for the President's office) presented Women's Studies College with an ultimatum either permit men access to traditionally all-women classes or face the fact that they will not be offered again in the spring. The deadline for compliance was changed from August 15 to October 15 so as not to affect those students who pre-registered last spring. — This series of events has brought a number of important issues to light, including the fact that the administration's attitude towards WSC has been arbitrary and insensitive. In the absence of any formal grievance, and basing its position on one informal legal opinion, the President's office seeks to eliminate a vital part of the WSC program. Additionally, the administration has not lived up to its end of the original if courses like Women in Contemporary agreement Society do, in fact, violate Title IX guidelines, the appropriate place for exploring their legality should be during the 18 month review mandated by the President in his acceptance of the charter last January. The action taken here has been unnecessarily hasty and does not allow adequate time for a thorough defense by WSC. As was stated in an August 7 letter form the President's Committee on the a lack Recruitment and Promotion of Women, "There is of urgency under Title IX which, in the event of an unfavorable ruling, allows ample time for compliance with no loss of funds if the University abides by the decision." — in the real world has relatively little to do with whai appears here, since what goes on in my head takes precedent, and that frequently has less than a one to one correspondence with anybody elses reality. I mean the great Betty Ford Flap is ancient history, so outside of suggesting that she should be running rather than him, there isn’t a great deal to say, but when that was alive and flowing the magic fingers could have produced reams on the subject.

President is above all that, and all that. all of Since this is a family newspaper Which refrain from developing this its budget I shall further. But only with great delicate subject apy strength of character. Politics would be a great source of material for this column, if there were any. Gerald has already told us he is out to protect us from Big Government. Which, the last time I noticed, was the only thing that was even remotely the size of Big Business. And somehow 1 find it hard to trust in the tender mercies of GM and Standard Oil. So while Gerald carries forward the banner of business for the Republicans, the Democrats are preparing. What it is they are preparing, who is in charge of the kitchen, and whether it will be any more palatable than the simplistic mutterings of George Meany, only time will tell. The prospects ain’t what you’d call wonderful from where I sit. My major political hope for next year is a chance to retire William Buckley’s favorite senator or at least I assume that blood and reactionary politics are thicker than water. So this is what several years of the State University of New York at Buffalo can do for your head. The suggestion that this column is maintained over the years to increase The Spectrum staff recruitment . .. “see, you don’t really have to know how to write, spell, or punctuate . . . our copy staff is beneath recognition, will do it all for you!” and will not be further commented on except to issue a categorical denial. (1 have been reading Kissinger speeches again, sorry.) (It should also be noted (parenthetically) that I think parentheses are wonderful.) My experience with reading my own material is that if I read it slowly and carefully and draw lines in different colored pencil from the modified noun just before the previous set of parentheses it either makes sense, or looks like an impressionist painting of some school or other.

Finally, if the University is so adamant about enforcing Title IX, it has no right to single out Women's Studies without taking a thorough look'ata// the departments.

To the Editor. As we are sure most students have noticed, the bus service between campuses is rather strained at this time. This is the result of SUNY budget cuts, and of the subsequent effects on the busing allocation. Therefore, here are a few pointers to make your bus trips more comfortable and more bearable. I) Don’t take the bus just before your class. Instead take one a half-hour earlier. 2) Plan on bis back-ups in Buffalo traffic during rush hours. This can add about 10-15 minutes to the duration of your trip. 3) Don’t drive take the bus. Giant back-ups can be caused by people using their cars between campuses. If you ride the bus, there will be less traffic on the roads, and buses will make the round-trip faster. This allows more people to ride. 4) Move to the rear of the bus and stay behind the white line. This makes more room for fellow students, and allows the driver to see traffic coming at the bus from side streets. 5) Please stay on the sidewalks at the bus stop. This will eliminate confusion and assure that no one is injured accidentally while standing in the road. Campus Services, which runs the buses, is spending more money for extra buses, and there is now enough room to carry everyone who wishes to ride. However, your cooperation is still needed in order to best serve the student body. This can happen if you follow the points above. A little though and consideration will help you and your fellow students get to and from classes with greater ease. — Men have never been discouraged from participating in the Women's Studies College. Past experience has shown College members, however, that the presence of men in certain classes inhibits or diverts the discussions and ultimately destroys the objectives of the particular course. Some people do not agree with that reasoning. But whether they do or not, the University must be sensitive in dealing with a program designed to promote the education of women. By selectively invoking Title IX at its whim and using it to drastically alter the Women's Studies program, the administration has proven that it has fallen far short of that mark. Page twelve.

Squirrel �m Bmui fiSP MV IP6M / T»F mi WOMAU frorr here to ther by Garry Wills There is very good reason for misgivings about the new Mideast settlement. It pins everything on Egypt. Egypt is not all of the Arab world it is marginally “Arab" in the eyes of many of its sister countries. And Egypt is not oil-rich, like some of those nations. In effect, we have agreed to buy peace on both sides by supplanting Russia as Egypt's principal patron, and by upping our ante as Israel's - - patron. L-\ i Does that automatically throw all the regions' other countries together as putative Russian clients in American clothes? Perhaps. Already Jordan has shifted off from Israel and toward Syria. It is not only an expensive deal, but a dangerous one. It will be used to prevent the most important settlement of all, that with the Palestinians; and it will strengthen those blocking that settlement, the Oriental Jews of Israel. a I think it is a bad deal. Still, Secretary Kissinger has precluded other deals by his maneuvering; so we are presented with a cruel choice this deal, or no deal. It will be this deal. Once that is said. I find no merit in the arguments most often used the settlement. Each concentrates on the stationing of civilian Americans at the Sinai observation post. We are told that such an act commits us to Israel. But we were already committed. After all, in the last war we went on world-wide nuclear alert was that no commitment? It is better, for us and for others, to have a commitment spelled out and given a vivid symbol. Call the civilians stationed there “hostages" if you will; they are hostages to reality, and no one should resent being bound to that. against eor ■SOM6C7AV hm'HVTpT «rn I—| (PEAL /Jfcrftt «io /vtfi > / Xs / l C This • n »I mwuv, n> the Pentagon. the CIA. big LIS. hanks, big corporations and large international banks controlled by the U.S. 1I Big banks like Chase Manhattan and Morgan Trust have loaned money to the Chilean Junta and the Pentagon makes sure that private 'arms manufacturers, like Cessna and Northrup, sell planes to the Chilean military, circumventing the intent of the Congressional-arms cut-off Gerald Ford defends the Junta and the CIA for having overthrown Allende, and corporations like General Motors invest in Chile while laying off workers at home. Economic aid is important to underdeveloped countries, but is granted for political as well as economic reasons. The U.S. government led a credit boycott of the Allende government, but has given hundreds of millions of dollars to the Junta. But it hasn’t been enough. The Chilean military preside ovei an economy which is in a disastrous depression Industrial production dropped 15 percent last year, and this year looks worse. Chile's only steel mill closed its biggest furnace in June, and the largest lire manufacturer closed down indefinitely the same month. Unemployment is about 25 percent. But worse still, this economic slowdown is coupled with the highest inflation in the world The military claimed inflation was 375 percent last year, but the World Bank said it was 600 percent. This year is just as bad. Salaries don't keep up with spiralling prices and real wages have been cut 50 percent since the coup The Junta believes in a ‘Tree market," at least for businessmen. Labor unions are banned and strikes arc illegal. The ‘Tree market" means that price controls on popular items have been lifted, so companies can "freely" raise prices. The big industries can afford to survive, but smaller ones are closing down, leaving on a few economic groups controlling the economy. Meanwhile the government is turning the economy over to foreign investors and to Chilean private business. The government owned 500 industries when the coup occurred. Now it owns only 150. and soon will own only 20, when traditionally state-controlled industries, like oil. are turned over to private hands. The government is holding on to the copper mines, but is paying huge compensation to Anaconda and Kennecott. which Allende had refused to pay. Today all new mining ventures are being carried out by foreign companies. marks the second coup in Chile which topped the democratically elected government of Salvador Amende. Allende was murdered, and a military dictatorship took control of the country, initiating a repression which has horrified the world. The record of the Chilean Junta over the last two years has been documented by numerous international investigatory commissions, such as Amnesty International, International Commission of Jurists, the Human Rights Commission of the OAS. and the Human Rights Commission of the U N. Chile has a population of about 10 million. Since the coup, over 100,000 people have been imprisoned for more than 24 hours about one out of every 100 Chileans. Between 20,000 and 30,000 people have been killed; most after having been taken prisoner. Over 2.000 people have disappeared, and arrests have been running about 1.400 a month In the capital city of Santiago during the last nine months. During this period prisoners are usually tortured, frequently including the application of electrical current to the sensitive parts of the body, beatings and near drowning. Currently there are about 10,000 prisoners in jail, with half of the arrests carried out by the secret police, dressed as civilians. Women prisoners are frequently raped by their jailers, and in some cases the military has arrested relatives and tortured them in front of prisoners. Small children have been arrested and tortured in front of their parents. Behind these cold statistics lie a climate of terror. The barbarism of the Chilean Junta has shocked the world. Reports of the international investigatory commissions have caused such embarassment to the Chilean military that they have begun to deny investigators entry to Chile. Last July 4. for example, the United Nation's Human Rights Commission was prohibited from visiting Chile, despite previous promises. West Germany, England. Italy, the Scandanavian countries and most of the socialist countries have cut off all economic and military aid. Mexico broke off diplomatic relations last November, and the U.S. Congress voted in December 1974 to cut oil all military aid. The Chilean regime’s main backers are lew. but they are powerful: the White House. September - The other argument is Senator Mansfield's, that we are repeating Vietnam in a consignment of “advisers" to a foreign country. That is the least defensible argument of all. Nothing is more important now for opposing Israel's excessive demands, as well as defining its just ones than to insist that our support of Jerusalem bears no resemblance to our efforts at ruling Vietnam from a dubious Saigon base.

It was as ineffective as il was unrepresentative 3) Historical: We entered the last act of a French colonial withdrawal in Indochina. In Israel, we helped the U.N. set up a fresh order of things. 4) Geo-strategic: The Israel connection is part of our European defense system, our strongest foreign power base. American presence in Southeast Asia was as useless as it was difficult to sustain. 5) Moral: The U.N.tof up territory for both the Arabs and the Jews after World War If. Tne Arabs opposed that arrangement, and we supported it. We have irsed our support to contain Israel e.g., in the Sue/, attack, or when we insisted on non-preemption in 1973. We owe those we have contained support within their proper limits. - The problem is not an American presence in Israel. The problem is the unrecognized demands of Palestinians in Israeli territory. Our support for Israel must be coupled, henceforth, with increased pressure to make Israel meet the moral demands of the other refugee people in the area.

By the I K s calculations, the big food chains have rung up SI,250.000 in excess profits since the early Id50s.

Proposed faculty and staff reductions include one part-time lecturer in Adult Education, two History part-time faculty members, one Sociology full-time faculty employee, and two full-time faculty members in the Philosophy Department. Campus Security cutback The Budget Committee findings also suggested that the language departments reorganize to form a “Modern Language Department" (including Puerto Rican Studies) and that the Theatre Department merge with music. Among the more serious cutbacks for 1975-76, Campus Security will have to decrease its spending by $50,000. Director Patrick Glennon disclosed that the Student Security Aide program, which costs $13,345, will be eliminated. In order to maintain the same quality of dorm security without the student aides, Glennon said regular Campus Security officers will have to pat ml and guard the dormitories themselves. “It will be a lot tougher, but we'll have to do it," he observed Other sources “This answer is obviously a possible source, but it is not now being seriously considered,” Fogel said. There are a few other possible sources of non-state funding, Fogel said, “but at this time we are not prepared to specify them.” “The mandatory student fee would not be the one that I’d be pressing as the first choice," he added. Health Sciences decision to drop its funding ot coaching salaries was appealed in late July by Harry Fritz, Dean of the School of Health Education. F.

The rise of these groups over the past five years has pointed up the unique problems of student tenants and given birth to a number of strategies for evening up the sides in a landlord-tenant slugfest. unions, to by Neil Klotz Special to The Spectrum Water pipes about to (CPS) burst, missing windown, no hot water, no refrigerator, no stove. - What six University of Michigan students found when they moved into their new house last fall them to one decision: no more rent. Six months later, after a stormy eight-hour court session, their rent strike was vindicated. Their landlord had not made promised repairs, the judge ruled, so the students were not liable for any rent. In fact, he said, they were entitled to a rebate on the one month's rent they already paid.

Today, even so-called "non-technical" courses (psych, soc, bus ad, to name 3) require a variety of technical calculations—complicated calculations that become a whole lot easier when you have a powerful pocket calculator. Not surprisingly, there are quite a few such calculators around, but ours stand apart, and ahead. We started it all when we introduced the world’s first scientific pocket calculator back in 1972, and we’ve shown the way ever since. The calculators you see here are our newest, the first of our second generation. Both offeryou technology you probably won’t find in competitive calculators for some time to come, if ever.

They wanted to control the whole thing, and they killed it, said Leon McMorrow, a consortium in October to academically justify this allocation. The purpose of the consortium was to develop innovative educational programs. The parents objected to this plan at first, but later accepted an invitation to participate in the meetings. Several former staff members insist, however, that parents and staff were not actually allowed to join the meetings. Parents and staff were basically satisfied with the Day Care Center. As a parent cooperative, parents helped develop the structure, the programs and the hiring of staff. The administratrion closed the Day Care Center on December j!0, and established the Early Childhood Center in its place, under the directorship of Dorothy Earner. The Day Care staff was replaced by new teachers and staff hired by the administration. Two of the original staff members were rehired as teachers.

Earner disputed this contention, claiming to that parents were encouraged to participate. They were not required their come, but the fact that they were not encouraged to come was in minds, she stated. When the ECC staff was hired in early January, there were informed that the Center would close in May. In April, it was disclosed that Earner was looking for federal funding. Earner reported to the ECC staff that the consortium was pleased with the Center and believed it was academically justified to received University funds, according to Ms. Cassiol. This led the parents and staff to believe the ECC would reopen in the fall. Ambivalent responses Parental attitudes toward the new center were ambivalent. Many parents thought ECC was an improvement over the old Center, because it did not have to rely on parental aid. However, others were Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics a distinguished visiting lecture series on "ENERGY" by EDWARD TELLER Energy The Origin of its Sources Energy The History of its Uses Energy The Adventures of Nuclear Power Wednesday, Sept. 10 Energy A Plan for Action Thursday, Sept. 11 Monday, Sept. 8 Tuesday, Sept. 9 — - - - - - Final attempts Center members also hoped to keep ECC open during the summer session. “We were willing to work through June with only minimal pay. if the administration would allow negotiations during this time, slated Phil Nicoli, a staff member. The University provosts all said they would support us, Mr. Nicoli said, but nothing came out of it. Meetings were held until the summer session with representatives of the center and various administrators to discuss future funding. Kelter said he sent letters to various academic departments and asked the Faculty Senate Executive Committee and the Provost ot the Faculty of Social Sciences to examine day care funding. “Only a few departments came through, the largest amount stemming from the Health Sciences.” said Ms. Cassiol. “When their own funds were cut back, they could not possibley support day care also." No future plans “At the last of these meetings, we found out the centci would officially close." Hodas said Parents found out a few weeks later in the letter from l)i Baumer The University presently has no future plans to organize another dav care center.

In recent years he has attracted attention for his role in the practical application of thermonuclear principles in the development of thermonuclear weapons. He has also helped develop national programs to explore peaceful uses of nuclear explosives & to harness thermonuclear energy by both magnetic confinement & laser techniques. His major current interests include the development of new energy resources, with emphasis on national research planning & national & international security issues.

Cynthia Anderson, the previous director, resigned in June. Anderson gave no reason for her unexpected resignation, but according to Martin McIntyre, Assistant Dean of Health Education, she was up for tenure this year, and the fear that she wouldn’t get it may have influenced her decision. In the past, Buffalo coaches without a doctorate have been refused tenure. No more cookies According to Dr. Sevier, now in her third year at Bullalo. women s athletics today are very different from the “playday” sports when she first started school. “It was more social then. Two or three schools would get together, and the girls would divide into teams. Alterwards. everyone would have cookies.” As director, Dr. Sevier is responsible for scheduling games and helping to plan the athletic budget Her basic job, however, is “to provide the best environment in each sport." Title IX no problem Dr Sevier thinks that Title IX, the new federal law concerning women’s athletics, has not brought many changes to Buffalo. “It has effected us less than anyone," she stated, “because we already had a good relationship with the men here.” In the past two years, there have been no instances of any lack of cooperation or support from the men, she said. “Title IX could be used as a lever,” she said. “But 1 don't see any real need for it at this institution.” There are a few things Dr. Sevier would like to change, although she does not foresee any real alterations in the women’s program within the next couple years unless the current budget crisis is resolved. For instance scheduling all the different groups who want to use Clark Hall is almost impossible. Five intercollegiate teams plus intramurals needing the large gym regularly is not unusual during the winter months. Dr. Sevier also would like better facilities and more space in which to work. Hopefully, this will come about when the facilities at the Amherst Campus are built.

However, Student Athletic Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia said the hours would eventually be changed back to 4-11 p.m. There is also a new addition to the Kelterpillar. Trailers attached to it over the summer will house a locker room and showers, eliminating one of last year's major complaints about the lack of such facilities. Also planned for later this year is the addition of line striping for volleyball and badminton. A partition in the Bubble can divide the floor space so that two sports can be set up at once.

Eliot Sharp faced charges of criminal trespass, second-degree assault and resisting arrest. Two other students, Paul Ginsberg and Paul Mittman, have their charges dismissed this week, according to their attorney, Norm Effman. Ginsberg faces charges of trespass, criminal mischief and governmental obstruction of administration. Mittman was charged with criminal criminal trespass. (ACLU) is expected to decide this week whether to Join the Student Association (SA) and the Student Association of the State University (SASU) in a legal suit challenging the Rules for Maintenance of Public Order for violating the first amendment rights of students. In a June 13 memorandum to the SA Executive Committee concerning the suspensions, SA Director of Student Affairs Steven Schwartz explained that the lawsuit Mittman are dismissed, all charges against 10 will have ended in acquittal or dismissal. Criminal trespass charges against Jim Hughes, David Lennett and Keith Parsky were dismissed in early June for lack of evidence. Ismael Gonzalez had charges of resisting arrest and third-degree assault dismissed, and was acquitted of the UB criminal trespass. criminal trespass charge against Reitz was dismissed in early July, followed by his acquittal of resisting arrest, obstructing assault third-degree and governmental administration. Of the ten students, Gleba, Sharp, Ginsberg and Gonzalez remain on suspension until, January 1976. Reitz is suspended until the fall of 1976. A Charles does not concern an abuse of power, but rather the power itself. “Dr. Ketter acted totally within the scope of his authority,” Schwartz said. Criminal trespass charges against James Hughes, one of three students arrested near the Campus Security offices on Winspear Avenue, were dismissed by Judge Green in Lenny Klaif, attorney for the three students, acknowledged that one of the key factors involved in dismissing the charges was the defendants’ signing a release in which they promised not to sue the the University Committee on Maintenance of Public Order on any June on the basis that the students’ presence in the area behind the Campus Security offices did not necessarily mean they were infringing on any one else’s rights, and therefore was constitutionally grounds. permissible. Lawsuit This American Civil Liberties Union Lack of evidence When the charges against (iinsherg and News Analysis Ketter remains firm on five student suspensions by Richard Korman from the University Hearing Committee on the Maintenance of recommendations Managing Editor Public Order. The decision not to prosecute three more members of the UB 10 with the expectation that charges against the remaining two students will be dropped brings further attention to the this week paradox that all the students arrested in Hayes Hall were exonerated in City Court but five still remain suspended from the University campuses. - - This week, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) will decide whether to join the Student Association (SA) suit against SUNY. SA charges that the Rules for the Maintenance of Public Order, the legal basis for the suspensions, violate students’ First Amendment rights to peaceful (The suit has already been endorsed by the Student Association of the State University.) If ACLU joins the suit, and thus increases the chance for a favorable decision, President Robert Ketter will almost certainly come under pressure to drop the suspensions in the interest of assembly. justice. Furthermore, State University officials in Albany may urge him to reverse his decision to avmd the risk of having the guidelines overturned in court. Reversal unlikely It is unlikely, however, that Ketter will change his mind. He has, in the past, shown a remarkable ability to remain intransigent in the face of public criticism and private pressure from Albany. The possibility of Ketter reversing the suspensions is also doubtful because a report issued by SUNY on the handling of the April 25 demonstration gave quiet approval to the Ketter administration by concluding that it acted within its authority. Although some students are planning rallies to support repeal of the suspensions, the growing list of legal arguments which challenge the SUNY regulations are more likely to move Ketter than organized political opposition. Meanwhile, Ketter, on sabbatical in Buffalo for the summer, has virtually cut himself off from the University and avoided questions about the suspensions. Ketter handed down the suspensions in June lenient despite more early Longer terms The academic punishments imposed by Ketter upped the recommended terms of three suspensions and two probations to six-month suspensions and one all without a public one-year suspension four — explanation. The power of the University President is virtually unlimited in these cases despite the existence of a Hearing Committee, whose function is purely advisory. Ketter is the Committee compelled to review recommendations and hearing transcripts, but when his opinions differ, he shows no reluctance to act unilaterally. In effect, the committee structure appears to ensure “due process” and equitable treatment, but there is virtually no check on the power of the President and there exist no higher avenues for appeal. The suspended students were found guilty of violating a section of the Rules for the Maintenance of Public Order, which states “No person, either singly or in concert with others shall: Refuse to leave any building or facility after being required' to do so by an authorized administrative officer.” Law held illegal SA Director of Student Affairs Steve Schwartz, in a memorandum distributed in that this regulation June, contended contradicts other sections of the Rules which expressly permit “peaceful picketing and other orderly demonstrations.” “What we have is simply a situation where an authorized administrative officer, without any guidelines whatsoever, can arbitrarily and capriciously determine the legality of demonstrations and make it completely illegal by simply telling people to leave,” Schwartz explained in his memo. “In other words,” he continued, “it doesn’t matter what you are doing in the building. If he tells you to leave and you refuse, it is in violation of the rules and regulations.” It was under the weight of these arguments that City Court Judge Sam Green dismissed the charges against James Hughes, one of three students arrested near the Campus Security offices on Winspear. At that trial, allegations that Hughes remained in the area behind the offices despite orders to leave by Buffalo police became irrelevant when the prosecution failed to prove to Green that the defendant’s presence infringed on the rights of others. Two legal precedents cited by Schwartz suggest that even if the terms of the suspensions have already expired by the time the lawsuit reaches trial, the legal questions behind the suit still qualifies for a decision. In “Thornhill vs. ’ Alabama,” the Supreme Court held that it was not the sporadic abuse of power which threatens our Constitutional rights, but "the threat inherent in its very existence, the fact that an administrator can simply tell people who are within their First Amendment rights to leave.” Abuse not needed The Supreme Court ruled in “Lovell vs Griffin” that “proof of an abuse of power’ is not necessary in testing the legality of a statute involving freedom of expression. The Schwartz memo finds further basis for questioning the legality of the suspensions in the structure of the Hearing Committee and the process of notifying suspended students of their rights. However, with the ACLU on the verge of a decision, and the eventual dismissal of all civil charges against the remaining UB 10 imminent, the suspensions stand out as an unusually harsh reproach for five students, one a PhD candidate, another a freshman. Asked if he thought in retrospect that there might have been some way to prevent the arrests, Ketter replied in April: “Students are adults who can, read, hear and comprehend. The demonstrators said they are prepared to take risks. If they feel strongly, then they take the risks.” Schartz is convinced SA can win the suit and overturn the SUNY regulations. Given these possibilities, the question still remains: Will Ketter stand by his original decision? �NYPIRG suit seeks MD’s help in surveys Statewide IRC?

But although Schwartz supports a statewide IRC, he feels this would be difficult for SASU to accept since “it is telling them they are not reliable.” SASU delegate Frank Jackalone admitted that in the past, SASU was not receptive to dormitory issues because it was a “young organization, too weak” to take action at that time. However, Jackalone pointed out that SASU did prevent dormitory rent hikes last Spring and that housing is presently its “number one priority.” (NYPIRG) has Board of Department and the filed suit against the State Education cooperating with NYPIRG from Regents for prohibiting doctors staff members in preparing consumer directories. on physicians The directories consist 6f factual information background and practices concerning aid dorm students Dissatisfaction with the present State University at Buffalo housing contract has prompted Inter-Residence Council (IRC) President David Brownstein to plan the formation of a statewide IRC.

Harris pledges a quick end to nation’s unemployment by Rosalie Zuckerman Special Features Editor Harris, Democratic Fred Presidential candidate and former Oklahoma Senator, promised an immediate end to unemployment and a “fairer distribution of wealth and political power" before a small audience at the Statler Hiltom last Friday night. He described his “new populist” —Tsui Fred Harris platform as one aimed at “helping the American people” rather than “big business.” “Two few people have money and power, everybody else has too little of either and this is not what Thomas Jefferson had in mind,” he said. His first step as President would be to “take the rich off welfare.” The government has spent too much money in tax subsidies rescuing big corporations from bankruptcy, according to Harris; conditions of the cities. There is no reason for unemployment to exist, Harris said. If elected, be claimed he would utilize two million public service jobs left untouched as an emergency source of employment. “A job should be a legally enforced right of every man and woman in this country,” he stressed. As President, Harris told the audience, he would enforce “by law if necessary” income tax on the wealthy and government controls on monopolies to ensure a “real system of free enterprise.” Harris singled out the oil, gas, food and automobile steel, being as industries “non-competitive.” “When Ford raises their prices, so does Chrysler. There’s no competition; it’s a shared monopoly.” White collar crime He recalled how in 1971 it was New York discovered that Governor Nelson Rockefeller paid no income tax. “I will be the first President to appoint an attorney general to enforce what Ralph Nader calls getting rid of ‘crime in the suites’.” As a result of the consumer “overtaxed” and being “overcharged” one third of this country’s plant capacity remains The Harris continued. idle, government must take action to control inflationary prices and interest rates so that “more of the consumer’s money is left in their own hands.” The 44-yeard-old Democrat referred to President Ford and his economic advisors, Arthur Burns, and Alan Simon William Greenspan, as the “four horsemen of economic calamity.” New foreign policy Harris accused the United States of being “secretive” and policy. a mass transit system, all of which “elitist” in its foreign say, we to “Dean Rusk used improve the “horrible” would he felt this money could be used to create public service jobs, improve housing and develop instead Page two The Spectrum .

Harris supports military aid to Israel. However, he feels money military spent on current programs should be cut and redirected to public services.

The University offered a separate half-day orientation for parents during which time they heard an introduction by Dean Charles Ebert or Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow, toured the Amherst Campus, dined in Food Service, and questioned upper class students about anything and everything related to the University. individual who is able to cope with life despite its shortcomings. For those reasons and more, the University feels a responsibility to see to the needs of its freshmen. That is why summer orientation exists. Over 2000 freshmen participated in orientation this summer between the end of June and the end of July. Today marks the last day. Each session lasted 2Vi days and was designed to help students register and acclamate themselves to the University environment. During their brief stay on campus freshmen are housed in Goodyear Hall and fed in the Norton Hall first floor cafeteria. In addition to filling out a slew of forms, meeting with Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) advisors, and taking language placement tests, students may attend any number of the many social and informational activities scheduled Try orientation planners. Success formula John Buerk has been Director of Orientation for the past five years, but he believes this year’s program has presented the most “coherent, balanced view of the University.” The primary challenges he encountered in setting up the program were reorganizing to the administrative end due the retirement of two key DUE personnel. and invovlement. They also pointed to the increasing number of local students who will be living in the dormitories because many have actually found it cheaper to sta/ on campus than to commute. Two-year orientation veteran, aide Pam Benson noted the improvements in this year’s program, citing that students are broken into more small groups and have more personal contact with the aides and other freshmen. She said the regular summer evening activities, like the outdoor coffeehouses and movies, .helped improve the social aspect of orientation.

Orientation is a time when freshmen are bombarded with information everywhere they turn. The feeling of despair when after hours of searching through the Class Schedule courses still conflict, the realization that human beings are reduced to Social Security numbers, the battle of the bureaucracy these are just a few of the frustrations a freshman must face. , are more politically and socially aware.

In an attempt to prevent an expected 70,000 young people from attending next Friday's concert in Rich Stadium, ;own officials sought a court injunction against promoter Jerry Nathan of Festival East to bar the Stones from appearing. Luckily, they failed. Town Attorney Francis Busteed informed the residents that if the town was unsuccessful in bringing action against the promoters, it could be liable for hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of damages. While Orchard Park residents are recovering from their defeat, they are already making plans to stop future Summerfest events in the stadium. Why? Because one lady said, "The kids come in beat-up, out-of-date cars" which "boil over and create more traffic problems than the newer cars the football fans come in." Another man complained that town board members don't live near the stadium. "We gotta stay there and watch what goes on. I'm disgusted." The attitudes of town residents towards the Summerfest audiences are narrow-minded, intolerant, and insensitive, despite the fact that past crowds have been orderly and well-behaved. But because this is a rock concert and not a football gamme, the few rowdies one finds in any large crowd suddenly become the prototypes of all young people. There is nothing wrong with letting large numbers of people enjoy a day of good music in the sun. Vet it would be a crime to reserve the multi-million dollar Rich Stadium for only four months of use and leave it to rot senselessly in the summer heat. NEW YORK This is a city that lives on close margins and by desperate risks. Watch a cab shave pedestrians, or a true New Yorker work his way up in line, or a water make room for more volume in a cheap restaurant. Not every borough is Manhattan, of course; but this island sets the pace and raises all the problems. It’s getting hard to buy a cup of coffee for less than 35 cents. The high rent, insurance, taxes and delivery costs go into every item sold. Such huge amounts of people and merchandise have to be moved so often in New York that any snag, even the slightest, is felt to be critical. Two days’ garbage here is like a year’s supply in the town I grew up in. It is common, around the country, to say New York is the “fast track.” But that can mean that one goes broke if one does not make it big. They say no Broadway show can survive unless it is a blockbuster. TV tapings have moved out of town. Union rates drive businesses away. Still, there are too many people making too many demends. The city has gone broke trying to meet them all. Mayor Beame’s recent gestures were primarily theatrical meant to scare taxpayers into paying more, and to assure investors that municipal bonds will support a growing enterprise. More desperate measures are needed, and the place to start is not with essential services, like fire and police forces, but with the nonessentials (however desirable). That should mean no more free tuition on the eighteen campuses of the City University. Ninety percent of the incoming classes have come from families making less than $15,000 a year which, in effect, means that 10 percent of the population is carrying most of this tax load. Or, rather, not carrying it anymore. It amazes me that right-wing critics of “elitism” oppose open admission on principle. Surely, this is a Friday, Editor-in-Chief 1 - — j August 1975 way of breaking down elites? Education provides the last real stamp of privilege in our society, and it would be pleasant to extend it to everyone all the way up through college, as New York has tried to do. But in New York’s present situation, this ambition has become self-defeating. The city will not save money, even after getting rid of the free-tuition measure, until dwindling enrollments lead to faculty dismissals and the closing down of some facilities. That is going to hurt, in a number of ways. Faculty out of work will still draw unemployment checks until they are driven from the city. Some buildings will go to waste. Janitorial help will be cut back. Students turned out on the streets will cause more police and welfare problems. But until New York becomes less desirable to those who draw on its services without contributing anything, it will continue downhill, so that it increasingly serves no one very well, w is overcrowded, undersupported and on the brink. It can no longer be a model for other cities. It is an exception, and should be treated as such. The regimen on a lifeboat is not the pattern for a good society; but without such reigmen no one will survive to rejoin normal society. New York should be Immigration to residence requirements for strict discouraged; welfare should keep out those who are not self-supporting. The lifeboat cannot pick up any more people just now. If the nation as a whole suffers from overpopulation and pollution, New York has a special version of every such problem. It has done too much too fast for too many. Its resources were not inexhaustible, and it must learn to cut back, slow down, settle for less. In that way it may, after all, have a lesson to teach the rest of us. It is exceptional because it has all of the nation s problems, rich, large and concentrated; and the nation is watching with concern to see if New York can cope.

One - Faith M. Prince �'Love and Death' 'Classic Allen peaks as director by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor When we think of the "classic" comedians, we usually think of personalities who worked with basically the same character, appearing from film to film in guises that were trivially different. But the comic was never difficult to recognize, and there was always the sensation of spotting an old friend in a foreign land. It was an intimacy common to most "movie stars," but it was warmer in the case of the comedians, if only because they were more fun than the burly, brawly he-men and the sequined, satin ladies. We admired Gable, Flynn and Lombard (not to mention Garbo), but we liked Chaplin, Keaton, Fields, the Marxes, and the other laugh merchants. In this sense, Woody Allen is the only classic comedian working in film today (the only possible exception is Jacques Tati, whose Mr. Hulot is virtually unknown outside cineaste circles). The rest of screen comedy is apportioned among gifted comic actors like Peter Sellers and Zero Mostel, and behind-the-scenes talents like Mel Brooks. Woody Allen is always playing "himself," and no other modern film actor or filmmaker can say that. Matured in Woody In a perverse way, I'm almost happy to say that Love and Death isn't quite as hilariously written as Allen's other films. The reason is that, somehow, this turn of events focuses more attention upon something very important: Allen's maturation as a director and as an actor. Love and Death is about love and death in the same sense that War and Peace is about war and peace. And the best place to pick up those kind of indefinables by the scruff of the neck is 19th Century Russia. The landscape that Allen creates could have blossomed (festered?) from the nightmares of an NYU Russian Lit. major, where the Slavic cliches flow thick and fast as borscht in July. Take Father Andre, for example, "the most wrinkled man in the county" whose gray beard flows over his chest, over his desk, and five feet onto the floor. Or the old peasant who has finally realized his to work dream of "owning a piece of land," his piece is about a foot square, and he carries it under his coat. can't do some of the things Allen puts her Fit for comedy Allen plays a minor aristocrat named Boris, the youngest of three brothers. His first appearance i#at a dance, where he executes a trepak in which, in trying to look like Nureyev, he winds up more like Prince Myshkin in the throes of a fit. But Boris, the only man in Russia with horn-rimmed glasses, is sensible enough not to gaily march off to the Napoleonic Wars to get spattered all over Mother Russia. He goes anyway (serving, for awhile, as a cheerleader for the Russian troops), and returns a hero after being shot out of a cannon into the French headquarters. (Buster Keaton used to save the day in much the same fashion.) Speaking of Keatons, Diane Keaton plays Allen's cousin Sonya, who has worked out a foolproof way to repulse Allen's advances: turn every courting session into a philosophy seminar. "All men are mortal: Socrates was mortal; therefore, all men are Socrates." Eventually, though, he wins her heart, to the point of helping his attempt to the Odessa Steps When Allen started out as a comic, he was as purely verbal a comedian as we're ever likely to see. In Love and Death he finally comes into his own (and out of someone else's) as a physical comic. Watch him playing the coquette to a lascivious countess in a theater, or dancing through the trees with Death at the end, parodying Bergman's The Seventh Seal. (Death is "like the chicken at Mestu's assassinate Napoleon. This is basically what happened to Allen and Keaton in Sleeper, Allen's last film. And Allen makes the same mistake he made in Sleeper with regard to Keaton; he gives her Woody Allen lines, and puts her in Woody Allen situations, and it doesn't work. She's too normal too natural, to fit into a female Woody , Allen mold, and she doesn't have the kind of comic talent that would help her do so more easily. She's a good actress, as Play It Again Sam proved; she just doing Dancing restaurant, only worse.") Allen's growth as a director has also continued and here. This is as much a cinematic parody as it is a literary parody. His satiric hommages to Bergman and to Eisenstein's Potemkin are less manic and more calm and assured, as is his command of the "straighter" aspects of his own style. Like his tapping of Russian literature and philosophic rhetoric, his filmic snickers run the risk of limited accessibility. Sleeper and Love and Death both belong to a new phase in Allen's career. They're both more carefully constructed and executed with more polish than his earlier films. But though Love and Death is very, very funny, and Allen's gift for the gag remains as voluble as ever, he seems to have lost a little something, to have become "clever" where he was once "funny." Love and Death will be coming to the Amherst Theater, in the University Plaza. steadily, peaking (so far) in Sleeper �Our Weekly Reader Chicago blues these bo£)ks and stories.

Ronee Blakley, .the only professional country singer in the film, plays Barbara Jean, the queen of them all, to Henry by Randi Schnur Arts Editor Several weeks ago, a film called The Nashville Sound was shown in the Conference Theatre. Although it purported to be a documentary about Opryland the musicians who actually played at the Grand Ole Optry, the hundreds of less fortunate ones who seemed ready to die trying (epitomized by a graceless guitarist named Herbie, even who looked and acted sweated like a displaced Richard Dreyf uss-as-Duddy Kravitz) and the thousands more who were happy just to buy their tickets and sing along from their seats the movie was too silver-haired, king Haven Hamilton. He is as egotistical and self-assured as she is neurotically insecure, and his obvious but absurdly naive sense of perfect control (introduced to the actress in a bar, he exclaims, "Isn't this a coincidence! I was talkin' about the New Christy Minstrels just this morning, and now here's Julie Christie!") forms an ironic backdrop for the child-woman's rapid nervious breakdown. Her Gibson's sequin-suited - — — — patronizing, too corny, too joyless and simply uninteresting to pass as a definitive statement on anything. What were all those Opry audiences getting so worked up about, anyway? The Nashville Sound offered no clues. Robert Altman's Nashville, on the other hand, was conceived without any pretensions toward "definition;" it is to The Nashville Sound as a well-researched, written work of beautifully fiction is to the maiden effort of an over-confident, semi-literate cub reporter. Altman's cast and crew the Country Music Mecca with tongues in cheeks but hearts obviously in the right place; the earlier film, while taking itself much too seriously, completely missed the spirit and excitement which link together Nashville's half-dozen sub-plots. Even the music in the new film sounds probably the worst better imaginable insult to Sound, since Nashville's songs were nearly all written and performed by amateurs (stars like Henry Gibson and Keith Carradine created their but that may be own material) approached — — manager-husband Barnett (Allan Garfield) sums up her whole problem beautifully halfway through a terrifying little sequence in her hospital room when he blurts out, "Don't tell me how to run your life I been doin' pretty well with it!" tyrannical due as much to its context as to anything else. — Star crossed There are about two dozen "stars" in this film. Many of these main characters' lives intertwine in one way or another, almost all at least pass each other in the airport, at the hospital or on the street, but each one has a different story to tell, a separate and fully developed personality to introduce. Altman's and writer Joan Tewksbury's immensely satisfying achievement seems positively staggering when viewed from this angle: this is not your usual microcosm of a society scaled down to the size of two or three this is a whole world, often sordid and mean, but entirely believable. (Any one of Nashville's aspiring superstars looks more "real" than Sound's Herbie, whose huge arsenal of electronic equipment, all jammed into a tiny, beat up prototypical characters — State of the union The key to Haven's philosophy lies in the song with which he begins the film, self-righteously asserting that "we must be doin' somethin' right to last 200 years." Barbara Jean, on the other hand, has never been allowed to think that far; Barnett has everything planned, from her politics down to her hairstyles and including the get-away when the state of her sanity finally becomes too clear for a whole audience to ignore. Keith Carradine's Tom seems like the ultimate sex symbol: dedicating a song he performs in a bar to "someone special who just might be here tonight," he has four women absolutely convinced he is singing to each of them, and a whole roomful of others who they wish only that could somehow be so sure.

I really didn't know what to expect from Bruce Springsteen since I was not that familiar with his music, but, rave reviews and the local airplay convinced me that a trip to Geneva to see him might be a cure waiting 2Vi for the summertime blues." So after driving 100 miles, hours to get in (it was general admission), and dashing madly into the I theatre to find the first two rows occupied by the ushers' friends, was in for a surprise. I was amazed at how lax the security was. Re-admission tickets were given to those who forgot to bring beer and wanted to go across benevolently as joints the street to get some. The security men smiled were passed around. Photographers positioned themselves in the orchestra pit along with latecomers who wanted better seats. Compare that with a concert by Festival East. band At 8:55 p.m., the music and lights finally went off, and the lights, dressed like stage purple the dim emerged, specter-like in gangsters. The crowd started chanting, "Bruce, Bruce!" just like at a hockey game. The stage lights went on, the band played madly and there was Springsteen; kung fu kicking in the air, slithering on the stage, dropping to his knees to growl into the microphone, or just standing there snapping his fingers like an ultra-cool Sammy Davis, Jr. He was dressed in city kid street uniform: black leather jacket and muscle shirt, blue jeans, sneakers, button-down cap and gold earring. His stage presence seemed to be a variation on Dylan. Up," The first two songs, "Blinded By the Light" and "Growing N.J.

They are a very tight ensemble, made up of sax, piano, organ, guitar, bass and drums, and play with a fervor throughout that most groups save for the last couple of songs. Then again, maybe this only happens when the audience is as enthusiastic as this one was. The high level of excitement never waned during the two hours they played After a few crowd favorites, Bruce picked up his Telecaster to play 'Tenth Avenue Freezeout" and “Born to Run" from a soon-to-be released Ip. "Kitty's Back" gave everyone (Bruce included) a chance to show their stuff. Then, the band left for a breather and Bruce remained on stage to do "Incident on 57th Street" with just a piano accompanying his great voice. On record, he sometimes sounds like Van Morrison or Rick Danko, but in person he becomes unmistakably unique, entrancing and overpowering the audience with his sheer vocal strength.

Although admitting that enforcement of the "No Parking" rule hat not been consistent this summer, Lee Griffin, assistant director of Campus Security, said Security "can't do anything" about fixing the tickets and that it would be up to the Parking Violations Bureau to drop the penalties. But irate orientation aides have registered complaints with University officials and cries of "Free the Parking Lot 15" have reportedly been heard from the Goodyear fourth floor east lounge window. Two of them, one introduced by Rep. Marvin Esch (R., Mich.) and Rep. Paul Rogers (D., Fla.) and the other by Rep. Les Aspin (D.. Wise.), would provide for two years of study by the National Academy of Science (during which industry could make a changeover to freon substitutes); the Rogers-Esch bill would then require regulation of flurocarbon “emissions” by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with the option of a complete ban if necessary. Aspin’s proposal calls for a quantitative limit on flurocarbon production on an annual basis. The bills have been jointly referred to the Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce and the Committee on Science and Technology. The Science and Technology subcommittee on Environment and the Atmosphere will hold hearings soon. - - International problem All of the government sponsored studies into ozone depletion have two inherent drawbacks. Each deals with only one aspect of the problem and altogether, they only deal with ozone depletion caused by activities in the UJS. Ozone depletion is an international problem, not confined to geographic areas. Chemicals entering the ozone disperse themselves over the entire global layer. What is needed is a worldwide, multi-national task force to monitor and control ozone depletion. The United Nations’ Environmental Program is considering a plan to monitor ozone levels, and to compile information on ozone. However, decisive action aimed at actually controlling its depletion may be years away. 'VACATION TIME IS A GOOD TIME! 1 Possible substitutes A Senate bill introduced by Senators Thomas McIntyre (D., N.H.) and Clifford Case (R., N.J.) would authorize the National Academy of Science to study the effects and possible substitutes for freons. and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to recommend possible levels for flurocarbon discharges. The bill would ban the sale and manufacture of aerosols using flurocarbons two years after enactment unless they are found harmless to health, safety and the environment. Lawyers and scientists close to the issue, however, are throwing their support behind the pending Toxic Substances bill, which would require not pre-market testing of all chemical products to determine their safety to just flurocarbons human health. It would also shift somewhat the burden of proof in toxic substances controversies from environmentalists and labor representatives to industry. The bill has been before Congress and has been fought successfully by industry for several years; it is expected to come to the floor again in late summer at the earliest.

This worthy event, the proceeds which will fund five areas of sports medicine research, brings together players from 43 schools in four counties of the Western New York area. The point that this game brings up is that the best football players in this part of the state, the cream of the crop, will be playing on the Main Street Campus, yet none of them will be attending school here. No kidding? One of the silliest things, to my mind, about this school is that it is in the midst of moving to an ultra-modern, super-expensive, hotsy-totsy new campus in Amherst. Yet nowhere can the money be found to field any kind of a football team. Nowhere? Come on, now. Just whom do we think The image that the people in this area, both young and old, have retained of this school since the late 1960’s is that the students are a bunch of drug-crazed radicals whose only athletic inclinations are to throw rocks at Hayes Hall and march downtown. We don’t have to establish an Ohio State football factory, or a Michigan-type juggernaut, but for the public relations value alone, isn’t it time that we restore football to the scene? Club football a chance Even a club football team would be a vast improvement: it would cast a different light on the name of the school in the minds of many thousands of local people, whose only experience with this University may be what they have read about the trials and tribulations of the “UB Ten.” Canisius College is instituting a new football program this fall. The State University at Albany has fielded a good, competitive team for several years now. Surely, out of an $80 million budget and almost another million dollars in student fees, w'e can find enough funds to establish some sort of a program. If we allow the echoes of next Saturday’s Frontier Football Classic to fade away without leaving some spark in us, the football pliyers will not be the only ones who will lose. We all will.

The World Peace Tax Fund Act, H.R. 4897, would enable those opposed to military spending to check a box on their tax returns, to send the portion of their tax money used for military projects to a humanitarian “World Peace Fund.” Many religious groups support the legislation, including the Quakers, the Mennonites, the Church of the Brethern, and the Roman Catholic Church. A statement by each of these groups in support of the act was presented to the House of Representatives by the Division of World Peace and Justice of the U.S. Catholic Conference. First of its kind “We encourage legislative efforts which offer citizens who object, for reasons of conscience, to paying taxes to support military programs the option of allocating a portion of their tax payment to fund world peace and development-oriented programs,” the statement said. Initial support for the act came in 1971, when a steering committee was formed by a group of concerned citizens in Ann Arbor, Michigan, including students and faculty from the University of Michigan Law School, to enlist public backing and to lobby with legislators on its behalf. The National Council for the World Peace Act has launched an intensive lobbying and letter-writing campaign to support the bill. Spokespersons for the Council say they have not yet encountered strong direct opposition to the act, but do face severe budgetary objections from the military and the Pentagon. They feel the “highly idealistic nature” of the legislation makes it “vulnerable” to attack from the military, especially since it is the first legislation of its kind to be formally considered by the Congress.

The standard adult rate for a by Howard Greenblatt is now offering Campus Editor one-year subscription is $10.00. A duplicate of a student’s MDA record will then be sent to Student Health Service. Otherwise, all medical records will be kept strictly confidential and returned to the student after the data is recorded on * microfilm. A1 Campagna, director of Sub-Board’s Health Care Division, supports the concept of MDA and has cooperated with Cone in informing current students and incoming freshmen. “1 think that emergency medical systems need to be vastly improved,” Campagna said. “The concept of an individual being able to carry his medical records around with him at all times has enough merit to warrant at least giving it a chance.” While Cone envisions that one day, MDA will be mandatory for all University students, Campagna would rather allow it “to take its natural course.” “I don’t think making it mandatory is at this time feasible because there are too many legal barriers to be overcome,” Campagna said. Two problems Two of the biggest problems promoting MDA stem from a general unwillingness to believe that such preventive steps are necessary, and the fact A sample Medical Data Alert (MDA) identification card containing microfilmed medical data. MDA is also available on a keychain or necklace. first aid, emergency hospital personnel must often wait until vital medical information is obtained before undertaking further treatment. MDA identification enables hospital personnel to quickly see details of any pre-diagnosed condition, past treatment and medications, known allergies, blood type, shot record, etc. MDA also lists the addresses and phone numbers of the person’s next of kin, family physician, employer or pharmacist for emergency notification. “that people do not have the capacity to recall pain,” Cone explained. He said many people have few or no vital medical conditions which they -feel would affect emergency treatment, and therefore question the importance of having MDA identification.' However, Cone noted, if such “healthy” people have an accident and are rendered uncqnscious or otherwise unable to communicate with doctors and emergency personnel, they cannot risk the dangers of treatment without a full medical profile. Even if there is nothing significant to know, that is still significant, he said. Cone feels people tend to think it unlikely that an accident requiring emergency treatment will ever befall them. According to the National Safety Council, however, “one in four Americans each year has an accidental injury, and it is estimated that 7 to 10 percent of them enter emergency treatment in trauma condition, he said. Students wishing to take advantage of the special price should contact Cone at DatAlert Corporation, 2959 Genesee Street, Buffalo, 14225, or phone 894-4 110. Photographic Studies Program might not be cut The proposed dropping of the graduate program to help absorb budget cuts in 1976-77 might be abandoned once the University Budget Committee hears the appeals by program participants, Art Professor Nathan Lyons told The Spectrum. According to Lyons, the program’s director and only faculty member cutting the program “may actually cost the University money.” that the explained Lyons program, based in the Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, serves Seventy full-time teaching Seven students. assistants, and a half-time clerical assistant are the only paid personnel. While the total cost of the program to the University is around $56",000', seventy full-time graduate students would pay about $84,000 a year in tuition, he said. University Budget The suggested that Committee Photographic Studies be dropped, partly because of its geographical isolation from the rest of the University, and partly because would affect a dropping it number of relatively small students. Students contacted by The Spectrum defended the location of the program, saying that has photographic Rochester resources not available in Buffalo, notably Eastman House which cooperates closely with the Visual Studies Workshop, Low per-student cost The program serves a small but considerable group of students at low per-student cost, Lyons said, Since the program uses the Visual Studies Workshop’s facilities, the University saves the cost of providing facilities. Also, because photographic studies has some outside funding and since students work on projects that generate income for the center, only around 17 percent of its total the budget comes from University, he added. Terming Committee the decision Budget an Lyons mistake,” unfortunate pointed out that the program has compiled a “strong track record” for enrollments and employment of graduates. In addition, the program has developed a national and international reputation in the field of photography, he said. Ironically, Lyons said, while his own salary is the largest single component of the program’s budget, the University cannot cut his faculty line since he is a tenured professor in the Art Department. He speculated that this fact was not known to the Budget Committee when it was looking over possible areas for budget savings. Lyons is confident that the program will be saved when the appeal is heard by the Budget Committee. He pointed out that the program’s existence was in doubt several times before but that it was saved once its value was explained. Three schools drop SASU memberships by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor Three member schools of the Student Association of the State University (SASU) have decided to drop their membership from the organization next year. Buffalo State College, the State University College at Fredonia and the New York State and the Agricultural and Technical College at Morrisville objected, among other things, to a raise in SASU’s membership fee from $.60 to $.85 per year per full-time student. Comptroller of the Student Bruce McVersion, Assistant Association (SA) at Fredonia, said the students there did not feel SASU has worked in the best interests of students. “There’s just a lot of poor planning,” he said, citing SASU’s $8000 budget deficit. He explained that it was not the fee raise alone which Fredonia objected to, but also the “lack of the ability to use the funds effectively.” ‘Ineptness’ “We just didn’t feel we were getting our money’s worth,” he said. McVersion cited SASU’s purchase of a $200 coffee machine for its office in Albany, and its payment of $100 per week to staff personnel, “show or no-show,” as examples of its monetary “ineptness.” Anne Tindell, President of the United Student Government (USG) of Buff State, said she disapproved of SASU’s method of calculating its annua) dues. “They charge dues for every full-time student registered. We think activity-tax paying students should be the only ones tabulated. Why should they pay for the students who don’t pay the activity tax?” Tindell didn’t think the College “was getting much out of SASU,” since all the workshops held this year “concerned things we’ve already been concerned about and done something about.” Five gynecologists “They held workshops this year on how to get out of your FSA, how to block-book concerts, and how to start a health service. We got out of our FSA years ago, we’ve been block-booking concerts for some time, and we’re the only SUNY school with an ambulance and five gynecologists to serve our students.” She said the money used to pay SASU dues could be better spent “keeping our clinic open longer hours, or buying new recreational equipment.” Tindell also felt SASU was “diversifying its efforts too much,” and spreading itself too thin. “Originally, the organization was supposed to mainly serve the legislative interests of students,” she said, “but they’ve gotten into so many other different things that they’re only half-doing a lot of them.” Reciprocity Buff State was the only SASU member which did not agree to “reciprocity” earlier this year. Reciprocity is granting every activity-fee paying SUNY student the right to use his ID card for student discounts and services at any SUNY school. “Our facilities are very limited,” Tindell sayd. “We’re having enough trouble serving our own students.” She said SASU offered the Buff State the option of placing limits on any facility or service, but she said the USG “would have had to do it to everything.” “We’re constantly having arguments with people in the community and alumni wanting to use our ticket office, Day Care Center and clinics, and it just wouldn’t be fair. Letting other students use our facilities and discounts would just add to our problems.” Tindell added that the College would consider rejoining SASU in the future after the “bullshit politics” within the organization are over. “1 think SASU is a great idea, and I think students should fight in a unified qianrier for their interests. But when that isn’t happening, it’s time to get out,-” She concluded. —continued on page 2— l ' Accident victims requiring emergency medical may be protected by a medical identification system, which records the person’s complete medical profile on a tiny piece of microfilm attached to a card, keychain or necklace. The system is called Medical Data Alert (MDA). Although accident victims who are injured and rushed to the hospital are usually given immediate treatment V t �Tiny Tim The rise and fall of a career by Rosalie Zuckerman Special Features Editor The motives underlying an entertainer’s decision to grant a personal interview hinge almost entirely on present degree of success. Genuine superstars are the most reluctant to talk, fully cognizant that a single misplaced word could tarnish their image as a shoddy effectively as performance. The climbers, underexposed starry-eyed hopefuls, will blurt out mouthfuls of intimate tidbits; provided their agents have ok’d their opinions beforehand. Always eager to talk, and the saddek to listen to, are the entertainers who have lost it (fame and fortune), “Sf tO!S recently Cheektowaga made her first movie, Cynthia. She looked at me from her cab and threw me a kiss. I'll never forget that year.” When asked how old he was now. Tiny smiled and replied, “I am trying to forget my age. I will always be 16. There is nothing like youth.” Tiny’s goal to this day is to bring back the great stars and melodies from the years between 1890 and 1935. He believes today’s rock music cannot compare with music from the 20’s. “The music of that time was very romantic, very heart-felt, They were melodies that touched the heart.

Frank Sinatra looks good when he sings romantic songs but the good Lord created me ugly as far as looks are concerned." Change of style Afterwards, Tiny gave serious consideration to a complete change of style. "One day, in 1952,1 woke up with a new voice. It was a higher sound that sounded kind of sissiesh at the time but no one sounded like that. I felt original. I felt my soul , move.” From 1953 on, Tiny claimed he never again sang or spoke in a low voice. .“I have a double jointed throat. People think I am putting them on but it is really easier for me to speak in a higher voice.” Next, Tiny felt he had to have a gimmick to go along with his new voice. “Winston Churchill had his cigar, Bing Crosby had his pipe. People remember things like that.” Tiny grew his hair, copying Rudolph the from style Valentino, who wore his hair parted over his eyebrow. By 1956 it had reached shoulder length and began to stir looks in the streets. Tiny stressed that he, and not the “People on the trains wouldn’t sit next to me. I felt tight, but I always smiled.” Despite these hassles, Tiny found his parent’s disappointment most difficult to bear. “My father worked in the mills and my mother was a sewing machine places. operator. They kept wondering, ‘what did we do wrong, where did he learn this from?’ My parents suffered very much.” To this day Tiny still withstands a great deal of heckling on stage.

Friday, 25 July 1975 & �Eighteen defendants face Attica kidnapping charges by Dana Dubbs Spectrum Staff Writer Calendar calls for the eighteen Attica defendants being prosecuted under Indictment No. 5 began Monday in County Court. Indictment No. 5 charges each defendant with 34 counts of first degree kidnapping. Prosecuting attorney James Grable moved to severe counts 1 through 10 from counts 11 through 34. to the state and the county, they asserted. Courts have discretionary authority to grant severance for good cause when the joined counts do not arise out of the same “transaction” or form part of a common plan. 10 counts are responsible for holding the eight hostages in the prison yard from September 9 through 13. Grable argued that the time necessary for the preparation of the trials should be considerably shortened as a result, and that the number of witnesses would be less. He also claimed that if the trial were kept as one, it may become confusing and unreasonably burdensome for the jury. Defense lawyer Michael Eeqtsch told presiding Judge Carmen Ball that the court had no power to sever the counts since the transaction, which is the subject of the indictment, involved the holding of hostages in the prison yard, and that the common plan on the part of the prisoners was to prevent unnecessary loss of life. He also claimed that granting an additional severance would give the state two chances to convict each defendant. Increased cost ‘Wholesale abuses’ Heywood Burns, defense attorney for Shango Bahati Kakwana charged that in Shango’s trial for murder and kidnapping, which ended in acquittal in June, evidence ruled inadmissible by presiding Judge Joseph Mattina was placed in the hands of the jurors during deliberations. Burns moved to dismiss Indictment No. 5 because of “wholesale abuses’, on the Opposition arguments by eight defense lawyers and defendant Frank (Big Black) Smith, acting as his own attorney, were Counts 1 through 8 deal with the alleged abduction of eight hostages who were taken to the catwalks surrounding D Yard just prior to the assault by police on September 13, 1971. Counts 9 and 10 involve two hostages that died on the catwalks and counts 11 through 34 charge based on the fact that the victims of the crimes allegedly committed in counts 1 through 10 are the same victims as in counts 11 through 34. Multiple trials would place a great burden on witnesses and increase the cost that the same defendants named in the first part of the prosecution. Deutsch moved to dismiss Indictment No. 5 on behalf of his client, Papo (Jose Quinones) because the state had failed to provide a speedy trial, as guaranteed in the United States Constitution. It has been 17 months since the case was marked ready for trial, and almost four years since the alleged crimes occurred. Thus far, no trial date has been set. A severed indictment, 5A, which Papo has been placed in, will not be tried until the completion of Indictment No. 5, which is expected to take at least eight months to complete. In reference to the prosecutor’s motion. Big Black said, “Don’t let him keep manipulating us, ‘cause he’s wasting the taxpayers’, money. Wash your hands of it, Judge, because you know it’s dirty.” Defense Attorney Dennis Cunningham told Ball, “I think you should take into consideration all the things that have developed since Dacajeweiah’s trial,” at which point Ball cut him short by replying, “I’ve heard enough.” He has reserved decisions on the motions until next week. Ozone breakdown Aerosol an $8-milIion industry Editor's note: This is the second in a series of articles on the dangers to the ozone layer of the atmosphere. by Doug Fontein and Deborah Baldwin The notion that the lowly aerosol could somehow interfere with the natural bubbling of ozone 20 miles above the earth came to light almost by accident when James Lovelock, a British scientist, discovered in 1972 that flurocarbons remain in the atmosphere almost indefinitely. But he foresaw no adverse effects. A year later, Frank Rowland places and Mario Molina, working on a The size and the power of the from the now-defunct grant Commission, Energy Atomic concluded that while flurocarbons are stable down below, the chlorine they form in the stratosphere is highly reactive and can break down ozone at an extraordinary rate. Analysis revealed that one to two percent of the ozone level has already been eaten away and that at least seven percent will disappear by 1995. Rowland and Molina decided that flurocarbons, because of their relative insolubility in water, have no natural enemies of their own; for can’t example, rainfall, dissipate freon and oceans can’t consume it. They calculated that the several million tons of the compounds currently in the lower atmosphere would increase to nearly a hundred million tons within the next 150 years, and their decomposition and corrosion of ozone in the stratosphere would increase day one correspondingly. are undoutedly behind government’s slow pace in tackling the problem.

Due to publicity and an interest in upswing in health-related issues, the steady gains of the aerosol industry are quietly reversing. Robert Abplanalp, close friend of former President Nixon and inventor of the aerosol valve, admitted recently that valve production fell by 50 percent in March. And freon sales are running about 25 to 30 percent below sales a year ago, according to the largest manufacturer of flurocarbons, Dupont. Important questions remain, in the federal take will for assessing the however: Who government responsibility threat of flurocarbons on the future of global life?

Petition In November 1974, the Natural Defense Resources Council (NRDC), a non-profit public interest law firm with several landmark environmental cases petitioned the Product Safety Commission specifically to ban the use of aerosol sprays using behind it, Consumer flurocarbon propellants. Among other things, NRDC cited recent measurements taken by the former Atomic Energy that showing Commission chloro-flurocarbon molecules had already risen into the lower stratosphere. And the petition stated that given projected increases in the use of aerosols, the U.S. could suffer from 100,000 to 300,000 additional cases of skin cancer annually within 25 years. Rowland and Cicerone believe, meanwhile, that waiting until monitoring efforts show high levels of flurocarbons in the stratosphere is a mistake. “If the destruction of the ozone because of the chemicals ever becomes said measurable,” Rowland recently, it will be too late to reverse and the problem will remain for decades.” jurisidctional gap, in February the hastily assembled a federal inter-agency task force on under present law to respond to government NRDC’s petition.

Fearful of offending the Kremlin and damaging the delicate balance of detente, President Ford denied the Nobel Prize-winner an invitation to the White House on the flimsy grounds that he didn't have time to meet with Solzhenitsyn. Press Secretary Ron Nessen said Ford did not see the author because he preferred "substantive” meetings to "symbolic" ones. Presidential aides also questioned Solzhenitsyn’s "mental stability" and suggested that Ford would only be helping to promote his latest book. The Gulag Archipelago , by agreeing to the interview. final snub came when Ford failed to attend AFL-CIO President George Meany's dinner for Solzhenitsyn, offering some half-assed explanation that he had to stay home with his daughter Susan that evening. And beneath all the so-called official explanations was the ubiquitous voice of Henry Kissinger, who believed a meeting between the two men would be "disadvantageous" to American diplomacy. This country's idea of detente obviously comes at a great cost to the American people. Unforgiveable as it is for the President to shun one of the most revered spokesmen for freedom, the U.S. sees fit to pump millions of dollars into a handshake in space and sell its citizens in a wheat deal that will send 118 million bushels of American grain to the Soviet Union. No wonder people are asking whether this whole business of detente is worth forgetting our humanitarian ideals in order to reassure sensitive Soviet leaders. Allowing the Russians to believe the United States has itself "exiled" Solzhenitsyn, a man who survived ten years in Soviet labor camps, who incurred the wrath of the Soviet authorities, and yet lived through it to tell the world the atrocities he witnessed and endured, would be a debasement of American The values. The saga of Solzhenitsyn and the White House has not ended. Awakening to the great blunder he made, Ford changed his mind and decided to extend an open invitation to the author. This time it was the President of the United States who was snubbed. In a statement read over the phone to Ford, Solzhenitsyn criticized U.S. participation in the 35 nation European summit meeting to be held in Helsinki, Finland next week. "The President will shortly be leaving for Europe to sign the betrayal of Eastern Europe, to acknowledge officially its slavery forever," he said. "Had I the hope of dissuading him from signing this treaty, I myself would seek such a meeting. However, there is no such hope." those words, Solzhenitsyn summed up his displeasure with what he has seen here, and reminded Americans that their country has a long way to go before it lives up to its ideals.

The Spectrum Friday, 25 July 1975 “There are some people who belong here,” he told us. “Murderers, filthy, savage they belong here.” But where do you put musicians? Where do quiet, romantic, songwriters belong? Danny s outlook on life has not soured now. He has become stronger, quieter, but his attitude toward Mexico, its government, its people, has become sadly bitter and his feeling about America is less than appreciative. He sometimes finds it hard to be an American while he lives here. A dog among wolves and other animals. His own people have closed their eyes and their hands, the American consulate in Mexico has shut his ears. To be taken home, to return to the American judicial system, trials, lawyers, rights! Convicted through torture, his statement would mean nothing. Danny’s letters are poetic fantasies of the snow melting in Sun Valley, Idaho, his home for a year. He writes of being in love in San Francisco and bars filled with young people from all over. “Sometimes it’s true,” he writes, “jail can be good for music and the arts, this place too as long as people care for you.” Danny Woody is a romanticist and he can find that in prison because it is part of him. But human needs are less than romantic especially if they are not fulfilled. So Danny will be strong and take it a day at a time as he says. But “this is Mexico, where they give you nothing to eat, nothing to drink, no clothes. So if people I know stop writing and sending what they can, no way I will be able to live up to being an American." Anyone interested in writing to Danny, sending a few bucks or helping out in any way can write to: Danny Woody, CPM Colonial Juarez, Mazatlan, Sinoloa, Mexico.

Just as in all Mexican prisons, a man can buy anything from food to love to respect to freedom. Danny Woody's freedom comes easily. He finds it in his music; he shares love in airmail envelopes; and respect? He II always have plenty. But starvation is frightening. It seeps through the prison gates and into his dreams. He knows there is no one to stop him from dying. He can only buy his way out of starvation. Stripped of his American rights and basic human needs, the twenty-nine year old musician awoke that first damp morning to the blind stare of a rat. After a few concrete nights on the cold floor, Danny bought his own upper bunk for 3000 pesos ($360.00), still hanging on to his money though for daily needs like food and toilet paper. One hundred and seventy-five kilos ol marijuana in the back of an American boy s truck make Mexican officials very happy. Pesos, pesos, money in their pockets and $40,000 is Danny Woody’s price. Through cattle prods and other torturous devices, Danny signed his statement and was committed to five years of rooming with Mexican murderers, rapists and young American smugglers. During January-February of this year, his first month in Juarez as a bystander to some crazy Spanish brawl. Danny was stabbed three times in the side and gut. Now he sees no fights, hears no midnight screaming and knows nobody's secrets. Each bunk is walled off into separate little rooms where prisoners may keep radios, electric fans and anything their friends and relatives send. Danny shares his room with another American "smuggler” whose parents have sent a few “modern comforts” and books for which Danny is very thankful and comfortable. But his belly is still empty.

A few minutes with a doctor should have suggested the cause was hypoglycemia, a blood-sugar problem. But she received hardly any time with a Health Service doctor. Instead, after being interrogated by a nurse, she was sent without examination to take a painful and expensive series of tests at an outside lab. An examination would have revealed that she is a slender young woman with unusually thin and tough veins. Drawing a blood sample is an ordeal for such people. Drawing ten samples from one or two sites over a period of 6 hours can verge on the sadistic. Yet it was ordered without examination and without recognition of the problems being created. Kven the lab personnel were surprised. When she reported back, she felt her complaints were met with hostility and aloofness by the doctor who saw her. The interview struck her as a medical power trip, expecially the doctor’s refusal to release information to the patient about her condition until coaxed, and the use of a certain patronizing manner. It is likely that she was not very objective in her observations. But whether ohipynyp or not, her feelings are valid and suggest that Health Service itself might be made more responsive to student needs. Surely part of medical care has to do with inspiring patient confidence, not giving the impression that one has fallen into the hands of medical functionaries. Concerned Staff Member �by Randi Schnur Arts Editor I'm "I've gone through a big image change no longer the Virgin Mary," laughs the tall, imposing woman whose presence takes over the whole stage instantly, soothing her audience with the rich softness of her familiar voice moments after she has shocked it into a wave of wary applause with her Lily Tomlin and Marlon Brando impressions. Her own warmth and tfjat glorious voice lit up the far corners of the cavernous (nearly empty) Niagara Falls Convention Center last Wednesday night she attributes the radiance to backlighting, but it's much more than that and in spite of her entrance onto a full stage before the end unheralded of the opening act, she has everyone's full attention ... Joan Baez: front at some point in her new act. Wednesday's hour-and-a-half opened with a spot r in co-star Hoyt Axton's encore of 'The No-No Song" (which he wrote) which featured his cute little freckled kids Michael and April ("and Miss Joan Baez is gonna help us"). That auspicious beginning somehow led "Miss Baize" into "Pastures of Plenty" and within a few minutes she was hurtling through "Earth Angel," the first song she ever performed, accompanied by every facial expression she could think of so that all the photographers at her feet could use up their film and — quit clicking at her. — — wa still radiant and captivating , right away. Fifteen years after the release of her first album (which a spokesperson for Vanguard called "the highest selling individual female folk album in the history of long-playing records"), Joan Baez is still real enough to admit that she and the rest of the world have changed a great deal since the 1960's, but still good enough to hold on to us through all those changes. Revised edition The new, up-dated Joan Baez has four musicians backing her up during the second half of her show. (Twenty minutes or so of speaker-shifting separate "Joe Hill," "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" and the rest of the Greatest Hits from the band's new songs, a break even more vital psychologically than technically.) They are all very competent, as far as they go, but they are not permitted to get very far; they space themselves along the back of the stage, she stays way up in front, and the music follows from there. It is always her show which is fine; she and we're all here why know and the everybody else "new image" to which she keeps referring can't change the rules that much: she will always be a soloist. The new, up-dated, etc. also has a sense of — Boston to boogie The voice has grown stronger and mellower since the early days of Boston coffeehouses and incredible Festivals; Folk Joan's Newport three-octave vocal range now seems to be backed up by an emotional range at which the 19-year-old of that first recording never hinted. series step the of in strange Each the singer which of Child transfigurations through ballads (who used to plant herself at center stage and immediately sink into a trance, the old melodies floating up by themselves like the products of a successful seance) turned revolutionary, Earth Mother, and now star of a- five-piece folk-boogie band (interesting combination, that one) is right up — humor we never saw before. The almost mystically absorbed teenager who developed into the equally preoccupied protester of the '60's is suddenly making fun of her co-workers (explaining that she now tours with seven men, she raises her eyebrows to report that four of them are musicians, and we'll bring them on later, heh-heh"), her audience ("What do you want to hear? . . . okay, I just wanted to know if you remembered them all") and herself. Madonna sells out Kris Kristofferson's "Help Me Make It Through the Night" suddenly becomes a vehicle for self-parody: "All I'm taking is your time (and money)," she sings; and later, discussing her new album, Diamonds and Rust, she expands on that "You should all buy it, and I parenthetical ad lib and then I won't have to anymore, be broke won't do stupid things like go on the Johnny Carson — Show." Many of the old motifs still remain, though. The favorite songs are all there, including a haunting Chilean folk-song (the name, unfortunately, slipped away as soon as she mentioned it, but the melody still lingers) and the a capella "Amazing Grace," and so are the favorite messages. And so is the obsession with long fallen angel Bob Dylan; there are songs by him and about him, as well as a little more mimicry. Once called "the queen of folk music" herself, she still refers to him as "the Prince," but with bitter undertones singing of "the Washington Square days" in the new album's title track, she admits that "speaking strictly for me, we both could've died then and there." Professional image-makers notwithstanding, the "old" Joan Baez coexists with the "new" one, which is of course the natural order of things; both were equally alive throughout Wednesday's concert, and equally beautiful. And the only person who could possibly sing better than the old one is her late-model twin, which makes for some damned fine — duets. �m OFF SALE Summerfest Bunny thought it was Out of Sight-did it really happen?

I assumed it was Orchard Park H.S. as we walked across a baseball diamond and an oversized soccer field. The sun was till high in what was an unusual sky; hazy but sunny, fast moving oddly colored clouds, just enough of a breeze. "See?" boasted my friend Clem, "I told you it wasn't gonna rain!" I had been reluctant to drive all the way out there due to the chance of another rained-out show, and now, according to QFM 97, we had already missed a good chunk of Seals and Crofts, as they ended up going on first, "Concert like this doesn't get rained out two days in a row," said Clem's girlfriend Bunny. "You know, Seals and Crofts, Judy Collins, Eagles. Everybody likes them, just like they say on the radio, it's a concert for everyone. If we have any trouble with the weather, we can get the other people to sing the Rain Chant from the Woodstock movie." Clem said he was sure there were some old timers in there who would remember. As we got closer, the concrete risers on the top of each side of the stadium came into view. "Looks like they didn't sell that many tickets," I said. "There's nobody at all on those upper seats!" "Well," thought Bunny, "they don't know what they'te missing up there." Marsha and Gary I think I'm starting to remember now. . funny things were happening," said Marsha. "It seemed like, you know, the bands played for a long time but it didn't get any later and the sun never went down." "Seals and Crofts," Gary informed us, "played real nice for a while you know, real down home, I mean, but they said they had to split 'cause they were going somewhere soon." Marsha said that just before Seals and Crofts left, "these sort of big glowing frisbees, like" were hovering over the stage and that the two singers had turned into chipmunks with turtleneck varsity ' sweaters; "Then Judy Collins came on," she continued, "and she had these big weird eyes and she even sang a song about Attica. She turned into Joni Mitchell Strangely quiet "I’d like to know what I'm missing," I replied, puzzled at not hearing any signs of Seals or Crofts coming out of the stadium. "You won't know till you're inside," said Clem. "They’re not one of your damn rock groups. You have to be right up front to enjoy it." I wondered about how they would sound from the opposite end of Rich Stadium as we walked through an unmanned gate in a new snow fence, presumably there to keep us from trampling the grass. Only football fans can trample the grass," said Clem There were no security men at the gate hut we guessed that everybody was Inside and at a concert this mellow, there would be no need for a lot of security. Then we gazed with disbelief at the turnstyles, as there was no one there to even take tickets. We started to move quickly into the stadium, by this time quite alarmed by the fact that we had not seen another soul since ciossmg the baseball diamond. "It's just like Woodstock!" exclaimed Bunny "They're letting people in free." "It sure is_," I added, thinking that the Eagles had not even existed in 1969, yet they were now being billed above two established folk artists, coming recently from nowhere with a string of hit records. We walked quickly past the empty concession stands, lights still on, hot. dogs still turning, backpacks leaning up against the walls, and ran down the steps to the empty field.

Not off season empty, the nightgame floodlights were on and there were — blankets all over the plastic covered plastic football field. Moving toward the stage, we saw the signs of a very recent exodus thousands of still-burning joints and cigarettes; puddles of overturned wine and beer. The little red lights in the amplifiers were still on and a 60-cycle hum buzzed out of the loudspeakers. "Wow!" said Clem, "they all just floated away, — who's that?" A girl underneath the stage was shaking a prone figure, apparently only slightly less conscious than herself. "What's going on here?" demanded Bunny, unable to think of anything else. The girl, joined by her revived friend Gary, said they had been doing Quaaludes all afternoon and had "sort of, like dozed off" during the set by the Eagles, which didn't make any sense, since the Hey iBMf W explained that, while the first two acts had been very warm and entertaining, Dan Fogelberg just didn't excite him that much: "Like he played too long, you know? "Then the Eagles came on and played a lot of their songs they sounded just like their records, you know, they've got all these guitar players and they sing harmony and all that." — A very important announcement Gary and Marsha said that when the Eagles came on, so did the stadium lights and the police began trying to make everybody take off their clothes and smoke joints. "Then one of the group announced that he was 'proud to announce in conjunction with QFM 97 that all 18,000 people here were to be transported to the Eagles' home planet.' We freaked and hid under the stage," Marsha related. The two explained how they then felt some sort of force pulling them up toward the glowing objects, but hit their heads under the stage and passed out, hearing something they thought sounded like CSNV singing '49 Bye Byes,' but they couldn't be sure. We gave Gary and Marsha a lift back to town and noticed that QFM 97 was no longer on the air, but by switching around on the radio we heard songs by all of the groups, and one by Alvin and the Chipmunks. The two said they were glad they didn't leave with the Eagles like everyone else did, because they had classes in the morning. We all agreed that it was the best concert we had seen, especially Bunny, who thought that it was Out of Sight. As this goes to print, there has been no mention of a concert or a mass disappearance in the papers, and the police deny that there was anyone in Rich Stadium that night.

It is a fine little story about Mr. and Mrs. Hattori, who were gradually ruined by Mr. Hattori's appetite for gambling at the "Brown House." As one of the characters in the story says of the Japanese, "he knew no race so cleanly, so well-mannered, so downright nice." The Hattori's live with their defeat but "The Brown House" is not really about gambling at all, but about Japanese fathers and their fatal weaknesses of character. Most of the other stories (and the play as well) show Asian-Americans escaping from their weak fathers or from their own closer to earth. 3) The main idea was to publish a "reader" every an anthology of third-world American prose year and poetry which was not screened by professors and white editors first.

She is a Lagun Pueblo Indian now living in Alaska. She also writes the copy which accompanies Aaron Yava's sketches. Her and contempt for whites is as direct as a punch about as useful; "If anyone is doomed, it is its own Anglo-Saxon America glutted with complicity in mass executions, rotted with guilt and self'hatred. Their art is the art of a dying culture — effete Omnipotent Administrator stereotypical types or macho-bastard jocks. The film's view of the future of mankind is bleak and by implication, its present mankind's view of potential isn't any better. Unfortunately, this rather perverse message is contained in a technically excellent film. The when it isn't photography, recording the games, is often beautiful. It is in the acting and directing that questions arise. Now, both James Caan as the star athlete, Jonathan E., and John Houseman as the Rollerball Director do good out of bringing stock jobs characters. Whether this is good or bad depends on how much one likes stock characters. As for the other stand actors out - - too weak to confront this truth sterile and flaccid about Anglo-Saxon America." Her story is very powerful and well-written because she speaks in pictures which give everybody a chance. Everywhere else she is tooting a kazoo. - 15) "Jackrabbit," a story by Jeffery Paul Chan, attempts a direct confrontation between an old Chinese man and his new counter part. The old man was born in China and dreams of going back there or at least of going back to San Francisco's but his young companion was born Chinatown and bred in Nevada and is all Chinese cowboy whoring, drunken, inarticulate, weaker than his strongest fantasy.

As for director just what was Norman Jewison he trmg to do in making this film? Were it not for the absurd level of violence and gore, this would be a rather good film. However, violence and gore are so pervasive that they destroy whatever value the film may have had as a look at the future or as a satire on sports violence in today's world. It becomes instead a paean to all that is ugly in the human spirit, and it is in this context that it must be considered. Rot terbat! is now playing at the Plaza North Theater in Amherst.

The interviews are another form. The first of these interviews comes in three parts ("The Early Years 1899 1936," "The Marriage," "1941-1970"), all having to do with the life of James Wong Howe "as told to Frank Chin." Jimmy Howe (as he likes to be called) is the famous Hollywood “cameraman with the eye for things phsyical." He has 123 films to his credit, including Hud, Picnic and The Old Man and the Sea. He started shooting in 1921. He is tough-mouthed, ungrammatical, and wholly fascinating.

One time only does this work and only because it is supposed to: in Wing Tek Lum's "A Picture of My Mother's Family," a picture of words follows and expands on an actual picture (circa 1915), figure by figure.

William and Joyce Wong, the interviewers, say that "he displays a bitterness that is indeed incongruous with the serenity of his surroundings ..." I am not convinced. The interview is poorly edited and its value as a document (for the Combined Asian-American Research Project) is doubtful. For example, Gary explains what he did as a houseboy thirty or more years before; "Saturday cleaned house. Evening I prepare supper.

The Spectrum Page seven . �World-famous Bolshoi Ballet at the Artpark Noble and world-famous, the Bolshoi Ballet has humble origins. They're so humble, in fact, that its rise almost qualifies as a typical American success story. Still, since it's the rise of a group rather than an individual, perhaps the story sounds more Russian, really, than American. In 1780, The Magic School was presented by a group of ballet students drawn from the Moscow Orphanage. The group had been formed just seven years before by Filippo Beccari, a former dancer in St. Petersburg's Imperial Russian Ballet. It was Leopold Paradis, Beccari's who led the orphans in The Magic School, replacement, their initial production. Since that first ballet, there have been many surprises for the orphans and their successors. In the early 1800's, for example, a horrible fire destroyed the Ballet's original performance house; the Petrovsky theater. When it was. rebuilt, both it and the Ballet were renamed "Bolshoi," which means "big" as in "Bolshevik" ("the majority"). Just how the Bolshoi Ballet ended up in the Buffalo area last week is perhaps best left a mystery. Buffalo or even Lewiston's Artpark (where the Bolshoi performed) have never exactly been Meccas for dance, although Artpark has scheduled some fine dance companies a bit later this summer. The Bolshoi performed Giselle on July 12 and 13. Spartacus also was performed on July 13 and on July 14, the night I was there. - — through the intermissions. One feels especially like a clod plodding through the crowds to get a drink or a breath of fresh air before the next act starts. Credits Spartacus has music by Aram Khatchaturian and a revised by Vuri Grigorovich, story by Nikolai Volkov who was also the choreographer. Simon Virsaladze is the designer, Algis Zhyuraitis, the conductor. On the two nights Spartacus was performed, the casts varied. On July 14, Vladimir Vasiliev played Spartacus, hero and leader of the valiant revolutionaries. Natalia Bessmertnova played Phrygia, his wife. A crazy demonic performance by Boris Akimov created Crassus, Spartacus' adversary. Crassus' concubine, Aegina, yvas played by — At Artpark Bumping, halting, and jerking along an assortment of highways and parkways for almost an hour is the first step you take when you go to Artpark. After that, you scuffle through the gravel parking lot and clop your way down the Art-El, a kind of functional boardwalk that takes you from the parking lot to the theater area. Once you're seated and the ballet begins, the mood abruptly shifts. There is nothing gawky and, incidently, nothing "realistic" (except, of course, one's emotions). The Bolshoi's Spartacus is a highly-stylized historical ballet placed in Acient Rome telling the story of Spartacus, a revolutionary leader. Another wordly atmosphere gusts in with the orchestra's first notes; an atmosphere of total control and grace that is somehow partially sustained CASH FOUND on campus week of 7/21. Identify by amount and location, date lost at Prof. Trice X5302. Tatiana Golikova. Remember It's not hard to recall high points in the evening, although it must be remembered that they occur emphatically in context, as peaks of an immanent, sustained mood. In act three, Aegina did a'scene with a spear which was the most erotic dance I have ever seen. Her dancing vamped the way Mae West's words used to. At another point, Spartacus was defeated by Crassus' forces. They carried the gleeding Spartacus downstage, their bulky shields and, lithe bodies concealing him from the audience. Then, suddenly, as the orchestra struck a loud minor chord and harsh light fell on his figure, Spartacus was thrust upward, stabbed by an infinity of spears. Incredibly, the audience met the scene with applause; a gasp or a shriek might have been more to the point. Space There've been a lot of Soviets around, lately. Both the Bolshoi Ballet and Opera are on tour in the country. Even pop culture has been affected. Woody Allen's new movie, Love and Death, is set in a fictionalized 18th Century Russia. Still, despite all this and such cosmic oneviight stands as the recent international outer space crew, I don't think they'll ever really understand each other, that Mother —Jay Boyar Russia and this Uncle Sam.

If you had met him, Brezhnev might have disapproved” Newspaper Editor's note: The following is a Guest Opinion submitted by Charles Reitz, one of ten students arrested during the April 25 demonstration at Hayes Hall. Mr. Reitz was found innocent last week in City Court of charges of third degree assault, obstructing governmental administration and resisting arrest. by Charles Reitz Thus far five of the UB Ten have been exonerated of all charges lodged against them by Campus Security in City Court. The remaining five have yet to come to trial, but unless the cops become more adept at framing students, there is little reason to believe that any of them will be convicted of anything either. This is because no students were guilty of assault; no students were guilty of criminal mischief or criminal trespassing; no students were guilty of obstructing or resisting arrest. No students were guilty of anything. We had been engaged in a militant and spirited, yet highly disciplined and orderly demonstration, that simply proved to be politically intolerable to the administration. In a fit of nervous frustration they issued their ultimatums, sent in their cops, bellowed mightily to the press and mobilized their courts against us. But we seem to be weathering their stormy attacks quite well. (either intentionally or After Security unintentionally) bashed the window in upon us, I was personally seized, beaten, bloodied and dragged to a patrol car before a large crowd in back of Hayes. Other demonstrators (notably Ismael Gonzalez and Elliott Sharp) were less visably made the objects of police violence, before also being jailed and then hauled into court on assault charges. the press by campus Stories fed to administrators and security personnel included tales of ice pick wounds, stabbings with screw drivers and shards of glass, innumerable facial lacerations attributed to an “implosion” of flying glass, and “weapons” we supposedly held in reserve, including chains studded with bolts and cans of spray paint. Seven Security Guards were supposedly treated at local hospitals, yet no medical records documenting these “injuries” have been presented in any of the trials to date! Ismael was accused of punching in the window and causing glass to cut Security Officer Charles Scripp on the nose, but the judge was forced to dismiss the charge because of impossibly wide gaps in the prosecution’s case. Other officers claimed that I knocked the window in, but even the DA (prosecuting attorney) the acknowledge eyewitness and had to photographic evidence that indeed Security caused the window to break, and dropped that charge against me at the outset of my trial. Campus Security Officer Gary Kalisz claimed that I picked up a piece of glass (one foot long and an inch and a half wide), and “brandished it threateningly” at his abdomen eventually cutting him in the forearm. Yet this, and most of the rest of his testimony, was shown to be a complete off-the-wall fabrication contradicting not only the facts of the matter (as — Syndicate. 1ST* attested to by the legal observer at the demonstration), but also his prior sworn statements to the campus tribunal last May. His lies were so obvious that any jury would, have been hard-pressed to find him credible. State University Chancellor Ernest Boyer, to whom the Student Association and many other students turned for redress, simply dismissed the administration’s overt acts of political repression and police violence referring to them vaguely as “actions inconsistent with the spirit of the University.” Boyer then proceeded to rubber-stamp Ketter’s conduct, maintaining that the administration acted “within its authority” in “dealing” with the demonstration. Boyer had been confronted by outraged students at Binghamton with a student government approved resolution calling for an investigation that would determine: “whether unwarranted force was used by any of the parties involved; whether reasonable efforts were made to avoid conflict; whether there was inappropriate use of academic penalties; whether basic constitutional rights of any to concerned parties were violated;. . [and] corrective measures. recommend appropriate For whatever reasons, Boyer has neglected to respond to the gist of this resolution and has clearly abdicated any responsibility students might have thought he had to them. We would hope that the Committee of Inquiry of the Faculty Senate presently investigating this affair has more integrity than either Ketter or Boyer have displayed in their evaluation of events. In addition to our suspensions and being physically banned from campus, the administration threw these City Court proceedings at us to further obstruct the building of the Attica resistance. It hoped to accomplish through legal harassment, what its police violence and political vetos could not. It is true that our expenditures of time, money and energy in defending ourselves against these legal attacks have been considerable, but at the same time many new people have become involved in the struggle, providing material and moral support. We are stronger today than ever. We learned a year ago, when we saw Kalisz and another campus cop drag the BSU president into City Court on assault charges just after the BSU had been involved in a Hayes Hall confrontation with the administration, that lying in court is part of a Security Officer’s job. The BSU president was acquitted then, just as out of the utter we have been acquitted now of the prosecution’s case, but the weakness administration exacted a minor political reward despite our acquittals. None of us feel grateful to the “generosity” of the judges or jurors for having found us not guilty, for the whole procedure to even that outcome was calculatedly punitive. We remember too how Dacajeweiah and Charley Joe Pernasalice were convicted despite overwhelming evidence in their favor. There is little left of any of the illusions of “justice” or “democracy” that any of us might have . ... — had.

When asked about his political views, he smiled and said, “Here is you where and I become enemies.” Tiny is a strong don’t get hit.” Although the image was there for some time, the name Tiny Tim was not contrived until 1961, by one of Tiny’s former managers. “By 1963, the name caught on so much, that I couldn’t change it.” Tiny’s real name, Herbert Buckingham Quarry, had already been Larry Love in the 50’s and Darry Dover in the 60’s.- of American supporter involvement in Southeast Asia, believes former President Richard Nixon was justified in his Watergate activities, and that it is “ridiculious” for this country to look into recent CIA activities. He believes that both spying and Nixon are necessary to keep the nation strong and prevent The communist infiltration. problem with the United States now, according to Tiny, is that there is no strong leadership. “Too many leaders are giving into youth even in the colleges.” Tiny. would like to see John Glenn become President because of his involvement in the space program. “I believe the first answer to the state of the economy is to get on with the space program. There are plenty of jobs and availability in space. America is the only country blessed with God’s grace because we gave him credit on the dollar Who’s he kidding? During the 60’s Tiny said he formed close friendships with well known performers who tried to aid his career. He described Lenny Bruce as a “great friend back in ’64” who tried to help him out by using the slogan “Lenny Bruce plays for profit, Tiny Tim sings for love,” to advertise his shows. Brice Lenny “Unfortunately, didn’t live long enough to see me succeed,” Tiny noted. In 1966, Tiny met Bob Dylan, who later invited him to his home in Woodstock and gave him advice on making it as a singer. Tiny’s real break came in 1967 when he was discovered at The Scene, a discoteque in New York City, by M.O. Osten, chairman of Reprise Records. Tiny pinpoints the height of his short-lived fame in 1968. His worst slump came in the middle of 1969. “The work got lower. I started going away from big concert halls in Vegas to small clubs in Jersey and Brooklyn. By 1970, I had to perform in places like Guam and the Philippines. Basically, I got jobs in ‘the sticks’ where you normally work when you’re coming up.” “Before I made it, 1 predicted that 1 would make it big and then go into a drastic slump. Every entertainer goes into a slump. It’s a part of life, like in Wall Street where you have your ups and downs. In this case it happened with a complete bankruptcy.

No plans Tiny has no immediate plans for the future except to continue performing as long as he can. Asked whether he would consider ' making the college circuits, he responded, “I’d love to do that,” adding that he already auditioned for college talent buyers but received no response. “Maybe they feel colleges won’t go for me, 1 don’t know.” Although Tiny is optimistic that he will once again have the “fame and fortune” of the late 60’s, he still looks back at his past nostalgically. “I was lucky and fortunate to have made it. It was like a trip for me. Everytime 1 pass through Hollywood, even now, 1 feel the great years of ’68 and ’69.” Texas Rangers fire Martin celebrated one-punch knockout of pitcher Dick outside a bar one night.

I Despite this report, Fogel and other administrators, including Executive Vice President Albert Somit, still refuse to confirm reports that thfe S288.000 proposed reduction in the Faculty of Health Sciences budget for 1976-77 will eliminate state funding of coaches’ salaries. Until personnel likely to be affected are notified, there will be no official announcements from the University, Somit said. That notification Is likely to come this week or early next week, he explained. ■ . - Breaking the news. Harry Fritz, Dean of the School of Health Education, said Tuesday that he still had not been officially informed of Health Sciences’ plan to slash athletics, notification “one way or the other” sometime this week. Fritz feels the possible mandatory student athletic fee “thoroughly refutes the educational and developmental aspects of properly conducted intercollegiate athletics programs for all participants.” Imposing an additional student fee for coaching salaries [which would cost students $130,000 per year] would seem to be a shirking of state responsibility to pay its faculty,” he said. “We cannot hope to operate a reputable intercollegiate athletic program under these circumstances,” Fritz warned. “The likelihood of attracting competent, career educator/coaches into a program with salaries funded by student fees is remote. “There would be fears of job health benefits, retirement securities, tenurej and other benefits under such funding,” he stated. SA opposition “We are against any plan to increase the already high costs of getting a college education and therefore oppose any form of student funding of athletic coaches' salaries,” Student Association (SA) President Michele Smith said upon learning of Fogel’s comment. She indicated, however, that the University will probably request the mandatory fee next week when it submits its proposals for next year’s budget to SUNY officials in Albany. The Spectrum learned of specific plans to decrease the 1976-77 budget from confidential documents from the office of President Robert Ketter last week. According to proposals, $1,150,000 in total cuts will have to be implemented for that fiscal year. Of that figure, the Faculty of Health Sciences, which finances the athletic coaches’ salaries, was slated for a $288,000 reduction. In order to partially achieve the cut, the proposal specifies that>the Sciences of Health Faculty “assumes” that the portion of its budget which has been used towards funding intercollegiates and intramurals “will be supported henceforth by non-state funds.” Farmingdale and Binghamton Clifton Thome, State University of New York (SUNY) Assistant Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs, said SUNY officials in have thus far received no Chnrloc ruyei Fnnt>l word on the proposed student fee However, concerned students at other SUNY campuses, including Farmingdale and Binghamton, have reported similar situations on their campuses, Thome said. “Any proposed fee has to be submitted to the Vice Chancellor for Finance and Business [Harry Spindler]Thorne said, and then approved by the Board of Trustees. “But the Trustees have a Arm policy limiting the cost of students’ college expenses above and beyond tuition and the existing mandatory fees, and they insist that we examine the situation closely before increasing any of those expenses,” Thorne said. Bill Anslow, Assistant Vice Chancellor for Business and Finance Bill, concurred with Thome, but added that if this campus wanted to institute a new mandatory fee, or adjust the old one, such an action would be legal if it complied with University Guidelines on Mandatory Student Fees, and did not exceed a $70 ceiling mandated by the Board of Trustees. Environmental threat Destruction of ozone layer may jeopardize life on earth Editor's note: This is the first in a series of articles on the dangers to the ozone layer of the atmosphere. by Doug Fontein and Deborah Baldwin •if A great deal ol controversy has arisen recently ovfcr the effects of various chemical compounds on the ozone layer of the atmosphere. In the past, the ozone problem had not been clearcut. since different reports and research projects contained conflicting evidence. But with more sophisticated and extensive analysis, it is becoming evident that fluorocarbons in aerosols, nitrogen oxides from nuclear bombs and supersonic transports (SST's) and subsonic aircraft flying in the stratosphere, and hydrochloric acid from the U S. space shuttle all destroy ozone and that this, jn turn, has adverse effects on the earth’s biota. So far, however, the government has done little oppose the aerosol, space, or aircraft industries by regulating or limiting dangerous chemicals which enter the ozone layer. And, the general public has not been sufficiently aroused to believe that our lives depend on an invisible chemical 15 miles above the earth which is mysteriously eroded by airplanes, spray cans, spaceships, and bombs. to Essential to life The ozone layer in the upper atmosphere is essential to life on earth; it is believed that life didn’t form here until the ozone shield glided into place. It protects the earth’s surface from the most damaging wave lengths of ultraviolet light which, if unfiltered, would destroy DNA molecules, the basic building blocks of life. Even when the ozone layer is only'slightly depleted, H allows a much greater percentage of damaging ultraviolet light to enter the atmosphere. Effects of large scale qzone depletion would increase skin cancer and sunburn in humans, change behavior of insects and possibly other species, damage plant life and micro-organisims, and alter the world’s weather patterns. A sudden drastic drop in ozone would destroy all life on earth by killing vital links in the world’s ecosystems. Ozone depletion could destroy plankton, tiny animals in the sea which are the basis for the entire food chain. Or it could dripple world agriculture through crop damage from radiation and climatic changes. Effects irreversible The threat of skin cancer alone is quite serious When a given percentage of ozone is depleted, the corresponding increase in skin cancer is from two to three times that percentage (some estimates are even higher). Furthermore, many scientists see the effects, of ozone depletion as irreversible because natural ozone replenishment takes an extremely long time compared to the extremely short time it takes for man-made chemicals to destroy it. Alre&dy, minute depletions in the ozone layer have been linked to a steady increase in the incidence of skin cancer and sunburn in humans. Exposure to ultraviolet rays' depends largely upon geographical differences; while there are several factors involved, a recent study of 4he ozone problem commissioned by the Department of Transportation concluded that the chief factor is increased amounts of ozone in the stratosphe r e above higher latitudes. Thus, on the average there is 30 percent more ozone over Minnesota than over Texas and there are correspondingly more skin cancer cases in the southern US. than in the North. Structural change Ozone is unlike the oxygen we breathe because it is made of three instead of two atoms. It is formed 10 to 30 miles aloft in the lower stratosphere when intense sunlight splits oxygen moleculres (0 2 ) and the separate atoms unite with other oxygen molecules to form ozone (0 3 ). There are four primary causes of ozone depletion. The US. space shuttle, an experimental satellite program started by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in 1970 will release 69 metric tons of hydrochloric acid in the stratosphere during each flight. Hydrochloric acid breaks down, forms chlorine, and destroys ozone. The nuclear bomb, which may someday destroy the entire earth, poses another catastrophic threat. If an all-out nuclear war were to occur, it would reduce the ozone layej by as much as 75 percent, according to Defense Department studies. But contrary to Defense Department interpretations, experts outside the government maintain that this would be enough to endanger the existence of all life on earth. * Nuclear dangers A nuclear bomb larger than about one-half megaton (equal in strength to one-half million tons of TNT), forms a hot, mushrooming cloud that generates oxides of nitrogen. The cloud rises to the stratosphere, where nitrogen oxides react catalytically to destroy ozone. One nitrogen —continued on page 4— �Broken treaty?

Seneca THE "BEEF" BURNS - Flame* ripped through the roof of the popular Beef and Ale House at 3199 Main Street last Friday as a large crowd of onlookers watched firemen battle the 3-alarm blaze for over an hour. Damage was estimated at $20,000 to the building and $7,000 to the contents. The cause was listed as arson and fire investigators reported finding empty gasoline cans and oil-soaked rags stuffed into the kitchen stove. "The Beef." as it is affectionately called by the many students who often pack into its premises on weekend evenings, has been the victim of right fires in the last five months. The building, owned by Joseph Snodgras, is now closed for renovations. Final passage Student to join SUNY Board by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor of SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer and the SUNY Bbard of Trustees. In addition, the Trustees reportedly prepared a substitute proposal, which would have added “a recent SUNY alumnus” to the Board, instead of a current SASU according to student, President Bob Kirkpatrick. The bill was sponsored in the Senate by 40 of the 60 members. Chief sponsor Joseph Pisani (R.C.—New Rochelle) praised the student organizations’ efforts. “I think it’s great!” he said in reaction to the bill’s decisive passage. “The students persevered, they kept their cool, and they argued on the philosophy and logic of the bill.” Asked if he thought the hundreds of letters and telegrams from individual SUNY students had any effect, Pisani replied, “I think they had some measure of importance” in the eventual success of the bill. The bill to add a non-voting student member to the State University (SUNY) Board of Trustees and to each local university and college board of directors was approved last week when the State Senate passed the measure by a vote of 55-1. The State Assembly already passed the bill last month 146-2. Governor Hugh Carey, who pledged support to the bill during his campaign, is expected to sign the legislation into law sometime next week. Most of the lobbying for the bill was done by members of the Student Association of the State University (SASU) and the City University Student Senate (CUSS). Lobbyists from the two student organizations stepped up their Efforts in response to strong opposition and counter-lobbying by the SUNY Board of Trustees, ■members of the SUNY college A ‘first’ SASU spokespersons were councils, and the community particularly gratified by the bill’s boards of trustees. college passage because, although almost a dozen states have passed similar Letters and telegrams Letter writing and telegram legislation, this marks the first campaigns were launched by time such a bill has been pushed SASU and CUSS to persuade through a state legislature in the Chairperson Warren Anderson to face of such strong opposition place the bill on the agenda of the from state university trustees.

Unique perspective The bill’s supporters argued that only “a student selected by students” could truly present the unique student perspective during the deliberations of these boards. SASU’s answer to the second objection was attached to the bill and read, “This minimum voter turnout requirement is unfair to apply only to student elections. If the legislature wishes to impose a 40 percent turnout requirement on student elections, it should apply to all other elections, the including those for legislature.” It also pointed out that the turnout for New York City community school board elections was less than 15%. The bill’s passage was largely due to vigorous support from State Republican Chairperson Richard Rosenbaum, Governor Carey, and the leaders of both parties in the Senate, according to Kirkpatrick. « Psychomat Psychomat will hold a workshop for people interested in becoming part of the group this fall or just experiencing open and honest communication for the day.

Kennedy was brought before' Justice John Abramo of the Brant Town Courthouse that same afternoon for arraignment. She was charged with reckless endangerment and attempted murder. Bail was set at $35,000. Since she could not afford the bail, Kennedy was held at the Erie County Holding Center until January 15 when the County Court reduced bail to $2500, and she could raise the money to be released, according to Justice Abramo. On March 6, her charges were reduced to reckless endangerment and menacing, he added. Quinn explained that he has already contacted the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Justice Department in Washington and the offices of Senator Henry Jackson (D.-Washington) and Senator Abacarus in an attempt to get his client’s case before the President’s office. Justice Department In a telephone interview with Martin Seneca, chairman of the Committee of Trusts and Responsibilities for the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Seneca said he informed Quinn that before a case of this sort could reach the President, it would have to be referred to the Justice Department and Senator Jackson’s office. Jim Schermerhom, Deputy Director of the Office of Indian Rights of the Justice Department, stated that New York State did —Santos Seneca Indian Mariana Kennedy announces her demand that her case be brought before President Gerald Ford under the jurisdiction of a treaty signed by the United States in the 1880's, which recognized the Senecas as a sovreign nation.

Kennedy told The Spectrum she did not know what her next action would be if the responses from Washington were not favorable. Meanwhile, Quinn has charged that his client’s rights have been violated by the District Attorney Edward Cosgrove’s office. He contends that the grand jury met secretly on March 6 to investigate Kennedy's case. He said he received this information from “an attorney” but refused to reveal the attorney’s name. However, Peter Koushoian, assistant to the district attorney, denied this. The order to put the case before the grand jury was rescinded by Judge John Doere who ordered that the complaint be returned to the local courts, according to Mr. Koushoian. Mr. Quinn has also charged with intimidating Cosgrove who considered attorneys accepting Kennedy’s defense.

According to Stephen Dunnet, University as members of the director of the Institute, for the Language Intensive English Institute (IELI) program. The past two years, the program here program offers concentrated has had the highest rating in the tutoring in English as a foreign country. The lELI’s success has language, and provides general attracted the attention of foreign acculturation guidance for governments and international aid growing numbers of international agencies, such as UNESCO and the Fulbright Commission. “We students. The IELI was formed in 1971 have contracts with the State Officer fails to prove allegations against Reitz by Dana Dubbs Spectrum Staff Writer The trial of Charles Reitz, one of the ten students arrested during last the April 25 demonstration at Hayes Hall, ended in acquittal Tuesday in City Court after forty minutes of deliberation by a six-member, all-woman jury. Reitz was found innocent of charges of third degree assault, obstructing governmental administration and resisting arrest. A charge of criminal mischief was dropped by the prosecution before the trial, Judge and an additional charge of criminal trespass was dismissed by Sam Green for lack of evidence. The trial began the previous Wednesday as the prosecution set out to prove allegations by Campus Security Officer Gary Kalisz that Reitz had cut Kalisz’s arm with a piece of glass, interfered with the arrest of another student, and punched, kicked and bit at the time of his arrest. On the witness stand, Kalisz gave the following account of the arrest: After the window in the door to the presidential suite was broken, Kalisz came through the door and with his lett hand, grabbed Paul Ginsberg, another student arrested that morning, and began chasing Reitz downstairs. Reitz turned* picked up a foot-long piese of glass which he used to threaten Kalisz and cut him on the left arm. Kalisz also stated that Ginsberg, whom he was still holding, interfered with Reitz’ arrest while Reitz simultaneously interfered with Ginsberg’s arrest. However, testifying on his own behalf, Reitz offered this version * of the arrest as a rebuttal: After the window in the door had shattered, Reitz was grabbed through the window by Kalisz, Assistant Director of Campus Security Lee Griffin, and Officer Gerald Denny. Denny, who was holding a nightstick, then clubbed Reitz on the shoulders. The other officers were pulling Reitz by the collar and succeeded in dragging his coat over his head. behind, Reitz was then grabbed by both ankles by someone from dragged down some steps to the landing just inside the exit door, and brought beaten. He was then locked into two pairs of handcuffs and outside. The defense produced photographs of officers positioned with their knees on Reitz’ head and others which showed cuts and bruises on Reitz’s body. Gene Rauhala, a law student who acted as a legal observer during demonstration, and who said he was standing no more than three the feet from the dpor to the presidential suite, testified earlier that although Reitz was being struck with nightsticks about the head and neck, he offered no resistance In his testimony, Reitz contended that at no point was he asked to present an ID card to the Campus Security officers. A warning statement read prior to the arrests had provided that all demonstrators would be afforded the opportunity to identify themselves. President Robert Ketter, a prosecution witness, said the warning was intended to distinguish treatment of students and non-students. According to the statement, outsiders, not students, would be arrested for criminal trespass. Judge Green cited Ketter’s testimony as a partial basis for dismissing the charge later. Both Ketter, who wrote the warning statement, and Vice-President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow, who read the statement to the demonstrating students in Hayes Hall, insisted that the statement was clear in communicating the intentions of the University administration to the demonstrators. In his summation, defense attorney Leonard Klaif told the jury that the testimony given by Kalisz was a “stench of a lie” and that the descriptions offered by Reitz and Rauhala had the “ring of truth.” Crowe, on the qther hand, charged that Reitz had reason to lie and and maintained that Kalisz was just a cop doing his duty. He lie, did added that it was incredible that Reitz was beaten and offered no resistance Tl)e not guilty verdict was met by cheering and applause from the spectators. Afterwards, the jury forewoman told the defense team that the case “should hever have come to court.” “Being acquitted isn’t that much of a victory since we were all innocent to begin with,” Reitz commented after the verdict. ‘The courts were used as a weapon against us.,Even though all they had were outright lies that were destined not to hold up, so it cost a lot in terms of time and money. Its not busting down the Attica resistance, its building it up.” >• Because of the failure to obtain any Convictions in the prosecution of the UB Ten thus far, Crowe will be meeting with his superiors and administration officials to discuss the possibility of dropping the charges against the remaining students.

Upon completion of the program, students must pass the TOEFL exam since U.S. universities high scores as a require prerequisite for entrance. The grades range from average 500-600. Depending on the type of degree the applicant wishes to pursue, however, the grade levels become flexible.

Ozone... —continued from page moiocule can react with and destroy thousands of ozone molecules before becoming ineffective. According to Harold Johnston of the University of California at Berkeley, the first atmospheric scientist to sound the alarm on the SST’s effect on ozone, nuclear tests by the U5. and the U.S.S.R. in 1961 and 1962 (immediately before the limited nuclear test ban treaty went into effect) resulted in a four percent loss of the earth’s ozone layer. China and France, both who have the bomb and didn’t sign the treaty, have exploded nuclear devices as recently as last year. Scientists have known for some time that SST exaust emissions pose a serious threat. Flying in the ozone-laden lower stratosphere, they release nitrogen oxides similar to the nuclear bomb’s as a result of extremely high combustion temperatures within the jet engine. SST emissions In 1971, Johnston alerted the science world that SST emissions would eat away ozone by catalytically splitting ozone molecules into oxygen and he was instrumental in convincing Congress to shelve proposals to {mild a fleet of the supersonic jets here. However, both France and Britain have committed themselves to the SST and now have a fleet of Concorde jets they would like to fly into the U.S. The U.S.S.R. has also begun construction of a fleet of Tu-144 SSTs. According to a March 1975 report by the National Academy of Sciences (NAS), a fleet of 300-400 SSTs would decrease ozone by 10 percent. The report also concluded that unpredictable changes in rainfall and surface temperatures might occur, and added that, “Sufficient knowledge is at hand to warrant the utmost concern over detramental effects of large numbers of supersonic aircraft.” Nevertheless, the Air Force would like to build a fleet of supersonic B-l bombers which would have predictably adverse effects on ozone.

The preliminary results indicate that not only do future numbers of SSTs pose a problem, but .that increasing numbers of subsonic jets are taking their toll on the ozone layer (although the government’s belief is that there will be no impact if flights remain limited and proper engine technology is applied). The final report has yet to be released to the public. The executive summary, released in December, emphasizes the fact that the present fleet of 30 Concorde-type SSTs will have relatively little effect on ozone, but fails to stress the dangers of a projected rise in international use of the SST. Johnston, who released an overview of the DOT report, said the conclusions didn’t clearly outline the hazards involved. “It has evaded giving a clear, candid statement of its own findings.” Flurocarbons, also called halomethenes and chlorofluoromehtanes, are already a significant enemy of the ozone layer. They arc released from aerosol spray cans most notably, and are also used in air conditioning and refrigeration units. (Although in the latter case flurocarbons are not emitted during normal use, they do escape either from leakage or after a cooling unit has been thrown out.) Dangerously stable Fluorocarbons, more commonly known as Freons (a tradename of the E.I. du Pont de Nemours Company) first came into use after World War II. They are extremely well suited as aerosol propellants because they are odorless, colorless, inert, and stable. In fact, it is their very stability that makes them so potent. Rising through the 15-mile-high atmosphere at a snail’s pace, they gradually ascend to the stratosphere. There, it is believed, the fluorocarbon molecule reacts to solar radiation, breaks down, and releases chlorine, a catalytic agent that erodes ozone at the rate of some 10,000 ozone molecules for each chlorine atom. .. .

The progressive officers of the Armed Forces Movement overthrew the right-wing Salazar dictatorship last April 25, 1974 after nearly 50 years of fascist rule. In less than a year and a half, the left-wing coalition government has had to block three attempts of counter-revolution and is facing increased tension at the present time. Under the Salazar regime, the Portugese suffered a high rate of illiteracy, substandard wages, unemployment, exploitation at the hands''of foreign monopolies, political repression, lack of adequate health care and a lack of basic Additionally, democratic rights. the economy and youth suffered due to Portugal’s colonial wars in three African nations, which resulted in terrible suffering for these African peoples. Popular support Additionally, Republica editor, Rego, was economy. Much of this activity appears to be similar to events that took place in Chile shortly before the legally elected government of Salvadore Allende was violently overthrown by right-wing forces, supported by the CIA. CIA involvement? Some political observers suggest that the CIA may be involved in the disruptive activities in Portugal today. Portugal is not new territory for the CIA. Victor Marchetti 'cMoppy the Information Minister under .Spinola. With a coalition government committed to developing socialism in Portugal, these recent revelations place the Socialist Party in an awkward position. While Socialist Monopolies nationalized After the Armed Forces Movement took power, with tremendous support from broad sectors of the Portugese people, they put an end to the colonial wars, opened up basic democratic freedoms, and began the nation’s economic dealing with problems. Large monopolies and banks were nationalized, preventing some loss of capital to foreign countries and small groups of wealthy Portugese. Recently, an intensifying psychological warfare operation is underway, reports the Daily World, where forged documents were “circulated, discrediting the Arfhed' Forces Movement, Premier Vasco dos Santos Conclaves, and the Portugese Communist Party (PCP) in an attempt to split the coalition government. Other efforts have been made, according to government representatives, toward inciting the people to stage work stoppages to disrupt the Movement, the government, and the Communist Party. Lourence said that the newspaper’s distribution fell from 80,000 to 30,000 after Regq’s attack and that the worlds feared being laid off. Further, Lourdnce stated that of the 193 workers on 'Republica that are involved in the dispute with Rego, only five are members of the Communist Party; thus substantiating his no claim that the Communist party intention of taking over Republica. Finally, Lourence stated that Republica is a capitalist owned and operated paper, with a large bloc of stocks belonging to the Feteira monopoly group. Lucio Tome Feteira, fled to Brazil with former government head, General Spinola, after the failure of the March 11 coup in which Spinola was implicated. writes in The CIA and the Cult oj Intelligence, that the CIA and the U.S. State Department sold B-26 bombers to the Salazar regime in Portugal, against official U.S. regulations, for use in its colonial wars in Africa. in the fall of 1966 Marchetti claims that an English pilot John Richard Hawke, admitted in a Buffalo Federal Court that he flew B-26 Interestingly, t to the Portugal bombers under arrangements of the CIA. The CIA denied the charge, and the jury found Hawke and a middleman, Henfi Montmarin innocent of any wrongdoing . . . (the remainder of this paragraph is deleted in Marchetti’s book by the CIA-sponsored censorship). Right-wing forces Other recent events in Portugal lend credence to the charge that a well organized secret war is being conducted against the Portugese revolution. On June 30, eighty-nine former Salazar secret police mysteriously escaped from a supposedly maximum security prison, and an unexplained fire destroyed records on former secret police. Then early this week, a crowd burned the local headquarters of the Communist Party in a small Portugese town, according ‘tfOubben S^otic. oMicfcey 6 to an Associated Press release. The nationwide defense committees, that are being set up now, are made up of block clubs, workers committees and other such organizations, and appear to be similar to the Committees for the Defense of the Revolution (CDR’s) that were set up in Cuba when that country was under attack by CIA-sponsored counter-revolutionary groups in the early 1960’s. With increasing frequency, the Socialist Party (SP) has been attacking the Communists and recently withdrew from the coalition government, charging that the Communists had taken over a Socialist newspaper.

The Portugese Communist Party now appears to be the strongest party in the government, as well as the best organized and most far-sighted, and it has supported •the recent decisions of the Armed Forces Movement. Its General-Secretary, Alvaro Cunhal, 60, is one of the most dedicated revolutionaries in Portugal. Jailed numerous times for being a Communist when he was a law student at Lisbon University, Cunhal received the highest grades ever recorded. Out of jail, he worked secretly to organize a core of professional revolutionaries, a broad-based anti-fascist movement, a clandestine trade union movement, and an underground press. Unity is needed Cunhal spent nearly 40 years underground, or in exile, and eight years in solitary confinement. He escaped from the infamous Peniche prison in 1961, and rode into Lisbon to a tumultous red-banner welcome a few days after the Salazar regime was toppled in 1974. Today he is a Minister Without Portfolio in the coalition government. The Armed Forces Movement and the Communist Party are working together with the people’s mass organizations, such as the trade unions, to develop the revolution on a strong solid base. Both recognize the importance of maintaining a united movement, and the recent actions of the Socialist party can only play into the hands of those counter-revolutionary forces who arc trying to create splits in order to destroy the revolution.

Page five �But seriously students, now, weeks two faculty, and administrators have known about the general University budget cuts proposed for the 1976—77 fiscal year. For two weeks, they have known that the Faculty of Health Sciences stands to lose $288,000 if these cuts are ultimately approved by the President and SUMY officials in Albany. Yet during that period of time, University administrators have remained closed-mouthed about any and all details, thus enveloping the budget-making process in a cloud of mystery and confusion — are going to dangle the fate of worthwhile University programs on their fingertips, does not the public have a right to know what is going on? Why does this administration insist on "protecting" its constituencies from the truth if what is happening behind those locked doors in Hayes Hall is fair and above board? Several members of the University Budget Committee — Chairman Charles Fogel and Executive Vice President Albert have said that some of us' are Somit to name a few — jumping to conclusions by assuming that the proposal to turn Health Sciences' share of the intercollegiate pie (i.e, athletic coaches' salaries) over to "non-state funds" means either a mandatory student athletic fee or the death of a reputable intercollegiate program on this campus. However, given the provisional nature of these cuts, shouldn't the greatest number of people be made aware of the situation so they can bring their opinions to bear on the final decisions? What these administrators are saying is that we should not react until we know all the facts and all the alternatives. But if they refuse to fill us in on the details, we must react to what is already known Everyone by now knows that due to circumstances beyond its control, the University must make cuts totalling 1976-77. This is undoubtedly the most difficult task the University must face this year. Because of just that, the administration has a responsibility to be $1,150,000 for straightforward and honest from the start, not to be hung up on secrecy and double talk. The people who stand to be affected by drastic cuts should be a part of the decision process throughout, not the lowly victims of it in the end The Spectrum Friday, 18 July 1975 Vol. 26, No. 6 Editor-in-Chief Amy Dunkin - . and set it loose on a rabbit Susskind: What did he feed the rabbit?

Must be the season of the witch. Ah, yes Summerfest is back again. Considering the super hype-job done by Q-FM-97, one had to wonder if this could really turr) out to be as good as all the hoo-hah said it'would. A rather unlikely combination of groups; Yes, J. Geils Band, Johnny Winter, and Ace, plus a recently divorced mystery guest, would vie for the attention of forty thousand people for approximately eight and a half hours. From rags to Rich Stadium The pre-concert atmosphere was all party, waiting for the music to begin. Some groups are tailor made for outdoor rock concerts. Ace does not happen to be one of them. Graduating-from the English pub scene up into the world of American outdoor concerts is a pretty big step, and it looks as though Ace will have to wait a little longer for its diploma. Playing R&B a la mellow AWB comes out fine on record, but outdoors the sound gets lost among the multitudes waiting to boogie. They try, though. Shunning the typical English garb, they came out wearing jeans, t-shirts, and cowboy hats and boots, and opened with a country-sounding boogie tune. But they were not quite raunchy enough to set the house on fire. The rest of the set was enjoyable, though, if not mind-bending. Five songs from their album Five a Side filled thirty-five minutes, and they were finished. Audience exposure to Ace was undoubtedly limited to AM radio play, as the single "How Long" was awarded the most significant audience reaction. Winterfest Johnny Winter followed with a much livelier set which set the mood for most of the rest of the afternoon and evening. If outdoor rock concerts are made for boogying, Johnny Winter was made for outdoor rock concerts. He loves to play and have a good time! He is one of the few performers who can take energy from the audience and give it; right back, over and over again. The music and the audience become one. From the cowboy hat atop his long white locks right down to the hole in his jeans on his ass, Winter is physically all over the place. He lets you know he's having a good time simply by the way he struts and shouts through every number. Generally, long blues jams tend to put an audience to sleep, but Winter's set has to be an exception in this case. He delicately intertwines blues and rock throughout all his solos that are unmistakeably unique to each song. Playing mostly cuts from his earlier albums, plus a fine rendition of "Highway 61," Winter had everyone on their feet by the time he launched into "Jumpin' Jack Flash," the closing number. He encored with "Johnny B. Goode," leaving the crowd on its feet wondering if a set like that could ever be topped. And, he had the time of his life doing it. down at the keyboards. Wolf introduced his friend Gregg Allman, much to the delight of the crowd. He looks none the worse despite his divorce from you know who, and accompanied the band on two final numbers. ' * The J. Geils Band succeeded in topping Winter with what proved to be the hottest set all day. J. Geils plays super macho, basic, primitive rock, the kind of stuff that gets people on their feet and keeps them there. Lead singer Peter Wolf challenged the audience to get crazier than he was, setting up the crunching guitar of J. Geils and the wailing harmonica of Magic Dick. Music to throw parties by. It was apparent that the majority of the people in attendance came to see the J. Geils Band. They weren't let down, although the set lasted for only an hour. They left the stage amidst cries for much more. They encored with "Give it to Me," and introduced the mystery guest, a tall blonde man who wasn't recognized immediately. But when he sat Summerfest returns 30,000 converge on Rich Stadium to hear Yes /. , Geils, Johnny Winter, Ace and mystery guest Gregg Allman — vice versa. Steve Howe is considered one of the most gifted guitarists today from a classical standpoint. His acoustic and pedal steel work is ranked near the top, with others in his field. Chris Squire has been a pioneer in what has now become a recognizeable style of British bassists. Jon Anderson's lyrics provide a very basic foundation for the spiritual feeling prevalent in so much of their music. The success of Yessongs as a live album raised great expectations as to how much this group was capable of doing on stage, as well as curiosity as to what they actually would do. But frankly. Yes was a bit of a disappointment. With such a vast repertoire of successful music to draw upon, one wonders why Yes failed to produce a completely satisfying set. Weak keyboards The loss of Rick Wakeman seems to have the greatest bearing on this. His replacement,%£atrigk Moraz, the musical genius (?) behind the now defunct electric group Refugee, is adequate, but just barely. Like a fish out of water, he was continually lost on numbers recorded before he joined the group, "And You and I" and "Close to the Edge." Two numbers from the Relayer album, on which he appeared, were of little salvation. Moraz was stuck playing the same theme over and over again simply because he wasn't capable of playing anything else. Howe, Squire, and drummer Alan White were required to carry the group through what became tedious instrumentals, with Moraz throwing every sound possible at the audience, but still failing to supply an adequate background. Anderson temporarily rescued the evening with the opening strains of an old Yes favorite, "Your Move," followed by acoustic work from Howe and "Long Distance Runaround." The crowd sensed something of a comeback, but were let down by "Ritual" from Topographic Oceans, a lengthy piece with no real direction. » Wake up and go home' As the set closed, the audience gave an appreciative hand hoping that Yes would rise from the dead and put on a -good encore. The crowd was finally brought unanimously to its feet with "Roundabout," a classic hartd-clapping live number.. The night closed with "Sweet Dreams" from the new Yesterdays album. The crowd was ready for another encore, but there would be none due to curfew regulations. The thirty thousand who had stayed to the end dispersed after a grueling but satisfying eight and a half hours of music with promises of more to come in the near future. Promoters plan at leastthree more similar concerts before the summer is over, enough to keep the area's young people hopping for quite a while. Not bad foresight . -f -t. ’ Crazy Wolf Waiting for the electricians By the time Yes took the stage, after a delay of over an hour, the crowd had used up most of its energy, but many stayed around to hear the headliners. Despite having six out of seven gold albums. Yes has never been a group to break attendance records. Their music has been endlessly criticized for being too weird at times, and too long-winded at others. Yet, Yes is totally serious about their music, becoming completely absorbed in it. It has become the basis of their lives, and _ ;if* �� * * * Today's the day of the University's annual summer Stratford Festival Excursion to the famous theater festival in southern Ontario.

Friday, 18 July 1975 �rregidora women stops with her, with her mind and her memories. At the end of the book (21 years later since the reader takes a leap in time In Part IV) Ursa is back with Mutt. They fall into one another's arms. They are in love, after all the years and all the pain. They dpn't know why. Tadpole is the second husband. He is the perfect second husband for Ursa because he is kind and understanding ("You your own woman, Ursa") and he looks like a hero next to the jealous Mutt, who dressed up like Dick'TrpCy to push his innocent and pregnant wife down the stairs. He is a real god-damned hero: he never gets jealous, but instead waits a suitable amount of time before he cheats on her with a 15-year-old singer and before he treats her as nonchalantly and brutally as Mutt. Corregidora, it is safe to say, is about more than a blues singer in Hazard, Kentucky. It Is about all women and by extension about all men. Ursa's central problem with men is the same as that of though the any woman with any man images are different. Here: Though Ursa makes a habit of "singing to one man," she is unable to make him understand her "feeling ways" what is beneath the words. At one point she says of Tadpole, "I was thinking I'd only wanted him to love me without saying anything about it." Singing the blues is the central feminine metaphor, but for the most part this is saved from being a cliche by the understated language in which it is explained and by the spare authenticity of the barroom settings in which Ursa's blues are sung. In fact', all the places in •' i > •• - — — Our Weekly Reader Corregidora by Gayl Jones,'Random House (hard cover), 1975 To think of women in traditional literature is in large part to think of them waiting for men. Waiting is a central image. Think of it: the fair lady on the class mountain in the fairy tale waiting forthe gladhearted knight to ride cunningly uphill to the rescue; Cinderella watting to rise out of the hearth ashes become queen by force of her own virtue; Sleeping Beauty waiting in perfect slumber for the renewing kiss of the right prince. Women wait around all the time in books. It's their job. It's supposed to be (•omantic. John Keats, who liked his women to wait, put it nicely in his poem, "The Eve of St. Agnes" (which as you know is the one evening a year "Young virgins might have visions of delight" as long as they follow — the rules): Nor look behind, nor sideways, but require Of Heaven with upward eyes for all that they desire. Today, more than 150 years after those lines were written, waiting is still the main job a woman has. I don't know anything truer than that. But in and out of real life, some women are tired of waiting. Some of them write books. One of them is Gayl Jones, a young black woman, now a graduate student at Brown University, whose first novel was just published by Random House. It is called Corregidora and it is about Ursa Corregidora, a mulatto blues singer from Hazard, Kentucky. Her family history is ridden with slavery, prostitution, incest, rape, and even a touch of lesbianism. She thinks about her family history a lot. She sings the blues for a living. But like all women, she isn't sur» what men want. She has trouble with them. Sometimes, like all women, she waits. She waits for a man. remember how his shoulders felt when he was going inside me and had my hands )on his shoulders, but / also remember that was exhausted with wanting and night V waitgcMjut he didn't turn toward me and kept waiting and wanting him and I got dost to him up against his back but he still wouldn't turn to me and then / lay on my Jback and tried hard to sleep and I finally slept and in the morning / waited and still he didn't and / thought in the morning he would but he didn't and waited but the dock got him up and he went off to work and lay there still waiting. / was no longer even angry with waiting. There is a lot of fucking in this book. One critic looked at all the fucking and said it was a very "sexy" book, but actually Corregidora is not about sex at all and it is only partly about fucking. The rest of the book is about the consequences of fucking, which is to say it is about the consequences of the single human act possible between men and women that gives them any hope for understanding what the other one wants. Clearly, this book is not "sexy" at all. Much of it actually has to do with the painful limitations of sex as a means of communication. In that way it is a very sad book and the language picks up on the rhythms that come with sadness. / was struggling against him, trying to / kept fee! waht / wasn't feeling — ' . struggling with him. / made a sound in my didn't know what he wanted me to say.

So it is here: gists and piths. The '-c reader as worker. But our anonymous critic is right about one thing: Corregidora is in no. danger of becoming a "bla6k women's liberation fable" or a feminist weapon. This is true for several reasons: Lesbianism (notably v introduced through the sympathetic figure of Ursa's old friend Cat, wbo is a closet fruitcake) is presented in a negative light. For Jones, the central question comes What happens to beyond understanding the young ones? Jones sees lesbianism not as a formula for good sex, but only as a kind of elaborate and complicated form of masturbation. Corregidora also falls short as a feminist "making generations" because tract (babies) is too central in Ursa's universe. True, there are carefully-drawn images of a traditional fear of pregnancy (a childhood friend of Ursa's gets knocked up, there is elsewhere a mysterious suicide, there are Ursa's own fears of the mechanics of getting pregnant), but these images are her dispelled by mother's and her grandmother's urge to produce offspring, if for no other reason than to pass on the story of the family's male-inflicted past to invent — , More: universal the book's final has a central and which perhaps even caters to the rigor of traditional male love: "What is it a woman can do to a man that make him hate her so bad he want to kill her one minute and keep thinking about her and can't get her out of his mind the next?" question tenor A feminist would never ask this question in a book, or if it was asked, the answer would certainly be, "Who cares?" But Corregidora, for all its poignant and true feminine internal monologue, gives equal time (or more) to men. / / / It would be folly to end a review of this / / book without some mention of its chief demonic presense: Corregidora himself, the Indiamdark Portuguese slavemaster, and the strong, vulgar and cruel originator of the geneology which found its endpoint in the prematurely sterile Ursa Corregidora. He is remembered chiefly for his ceaseless fucking and for his elaborate personal bevy of whores who are saved only for himself and select gentlemen. In youth, he is the ur-portrait of fantasies within all men: a dark, brooding, relentless fucker and keeper of women; and in old age he is the sum of all male terrors: crabby, thin fleshed, hated by his women (secretly) and twisted sideways by a sudden, deforming stroke. It is hard to ever any more believe he was ever real than the collected fears and hatreds of all women, a kind of repository of imperishable conceptions of the southern white male reduced to gothic proportions and simplicities. But that is enough. Gayl Jones makes him real, makes him radiate out of the one remaining photograph of him like a warning for women to behave, to endure, and above —Corydon Ireland all to wait. — — ... long thing." Finally, this book is far too tender and understanding of men.

Still, the album doesn't sell, and a year later it can be fognd on the discount racks of any record store. This is probably what will happen to Main Course, the Bee Gees' latest, and it will be an unjustified fate, as usual. This does not mean that the album ij perfect; Main Course has its problems, but that is true of all albums. The main difficulty arises when the Bee Gees try to imitate American "soul music. Sometimes like in "Jive Talkin'," where the music it works sounds .appropriate, and in "Nights on Broadway," which is such an excellent song that almost nothing could ruin it. At other times, however, the imitation fails miserably. "Wind of Change," a weak cut to begin with, is made boring by a monotonous backup arrangement and an occasionally overpowering chorus' of horns. Feathery vocals and insipid instrumentation give ( "Fanny (Be Tender with my Love)" a saccharine feeling, without the fragile beauty that the song could have had. Both of these cuts are examples of extreme commercialism on the group's part, and it is fortunate that they do not dominate the album. The rest of the album is made up of average Bee Gees songs with better than average Bee Gees which makes them about twice as good melodies as a lot of the music presently heard on AM radio. "Edge of the Universe" is a good example. It has a nice arrangement, with some synthesizer ornamentation giving it a slightly "spacey" feeling, and a melody which keeps the song interesting for its whole length over five minutes. "All This Making Love," more wry than erotic, is an interesting, almost typical British pop song; it isn't something you would expect from the Bee Gees. The group has a talent for writing songs that can stand up to quite a bit of orchestration, but sometimes the arrangement is overbearing. This happens in "Come on Over," a glossy, plastic song which sounds like something Charlie Rich would - — Summerfest Part Six is this Sunday at Rich Stadium and will feature Dan Fogelberg, Judy Collins, Seals and Crofts, and the Eagles.

Perhaps the best one is the previously mentioned "Nights on Broadway," a fast paced, forceful song with a slow verse toward the end just to keep it from getting boring. It would be a good choice for a single. Another good single, although for different reasons, might be "Country Lanes." It sounds a little like an old Bee Gees song or a slow English folk tune, and it isn't as syrupy as the title implies. "Songbird" is also a pretty song, featuring the Bee Gees' unmistakable harmonies against a comparatively simple musical background. The main reason this album succeeds is because of the quality of the musicians. As usual, all guitars are played by Alan Kendall and Barry Gibb (the oldest of the three brothers). Kendall has stopped trying to be "heavy" and thus fits in very well on this album. Dennis Byron, who was excellent on drums on their last album, is just as good here, being equally comfortable with the fast and slow songs. Naturally, Robin Gibb is content just to use his quavery voice, and Maurice Gibb has finally abandoned keyboards completely. Now he merely plays bass, and some guitar, ahd he is quite good at that. He has been likened to Paul McCartney, which isn't an unjust comparison. Blue Weaver, the excellent keyboard artist formerly with the Strawbs, plays all keyboards on this album. So far, he has been the best choice for this job, for he has added a variety of instruments, including synthesizers, for the first time. While his predecessors were content to provide simple accompaniment. Weaver,"with his classical training, throws in subtle note patterns and interesting underbeats, giving the songs a more complete sound and even the synthesizers sound — good. Arif Mardin, who has produced albums for such people as Laura Nyro, John Prine, Aretha Franklin and the Average White Band, produced this album as well as the one before it. He has done a good job, despite occasional excesses. As for the lyrics, most of them deal with the Bee Gees' traditional theme, romance, ususally dwelling on the more or less tragic aspects. The words are less cryptic than usual, except for some songs, like "Edge of the Universe:" "Well, I'm ten feet tall, but I’m only three feet wide And I live inside an ocean that flows on the other side If came back down tomorrow Would it all be far too soon And it looks like it's gonna be a lovely afternoon" A lyric sheet has been included, but it is superfulous. You can understand most of the lyrics anyway and nobody really listens to them after hearing the songs a few times. This is a very enjoyable album. Perhaps it will be too sugary or commercial for some people, but anyone who likes Bee Gees music should like it. I read recently that the Bee Gees celebrated their twentieth year in show business (they've been popular in the U.S. and Great Britain for only eight «• / years). Their oldest member is 27.

It is a typical Earl Scruggs album in tht that he takes a back seat and lets his guest stars take the spotlight.

The songs are evenly divided among the - blue-grass, country-western, and Gospel genres. They David Bromberg Band, Midnight on the Water, (Columbia) You don't (or at least I don't) find many musicians these days with much more technical skill on their instruments than David Bromberg. His years of session and backup duty speak for themselves on that score. But of more significance, probably, is his having become one of the very few sidemen to have achieved any sort of success as a solo. Yes, we all pour over liner notes like chemists trying to break down DNA, we all recognize the names; but how often do We see them on the front of a record that goes anyplace? The Bromberg ; charisma is an amalgam of this sterling musicianship and of a cherry, gap-toothed grin of an image, namely the City Boy As Hard Lovin' Loser. When Bromberg sings "Send Mfe To The Electric Chair" on is previous album Wanted Dead or Alive, you know that the world that in there's not a chance this gangly, undergraduate-looking fellow could have "Hit her with a bottle/ Kicked her in the side/ And stood laughin' over her/ While she wriggled 'round and died." It's the whole absurdity of all the collegiate city joys pretending in any way to approximate the boozin', shootirv', oallin' bastards that Leadbelly, Big Bill Broonzy, and Charlie Patton sang about, and to some extent were. Bromberg's fully aware of this, and he's been playing it for all it's been worth, especially via a vocal delivery that's often downright hammy. Problem is, the direction that he sometimes has to play this is down, and I don't like being condescended to. But there's less of it on Midnight than before, which is why I think it's better than anything he's put on record previously. He even has fun with The Image in "I Like To Sleep Late In The Morning," a really likeable song that would be great to wake up late to. the acoustic He even plays it on one of my favorite instruments 12-string, with the other instruments fading in gradually. Nice. For double-edged parody, try "Mr. Blue," non other than the Fleetwoods' opus done as a perfect imitation of middle-of-the-road WEBR style. (The real joke is that it may very well get onto the MOR airwaves.) And everyone who remembers, fondly or otherwise, Peter Noone of Herman's Hermits squealing "Don't know much abouthis-tuhree ..." is bound to goof on Bromberg's Muscle Shoals treatment of the Hermits’ "(What A) Wonderful World." There are two medleys of traditional fiddle tunes. By far the better of the two is the breathless, five-minute. "Yankee's Revenge," highlighted by Bromberg's guitar work. Jay Ungar's fiddle, and don't Billy Novick's pennywhistle playing. (All right, so I'm the only laugh pennywhistle fan in Buffalo; consider me an oppressed minority.) The other medley, title tune for the record, is a tot muddled, and they apparently forgot to include the "Slow Air" that the cover says is part of it. Bromberg's only solo on the record is "If I Get Lucky," a Booker T. song that he turns into a straight country blues. He does it with a lot of feeling, but it's not the same kind of feeling you or I would probably think of as "the blues." It's a strange sensation. Still, Bromberg does some of the best playing on the whole album there. David Bromberg has been trying to make the transition from "musician's musician" to "entertainer" for mosfbf his solo career. If this record is any indication, he's about this close to doing the job as right as it ever gets done. The Bromberg faps all have their copies by —Stringbean now, and are doubtless happy with them.

Most of the songs were cut with a minimum of rehearsal, true to the down-home aspect of Country Boys. . ■; Nonetheless, Anniversary Special is not a bad album. It merely boils down to a collection of old friends getting together to sing and play some of their old favorites. It cannot be considered a classic MUST album, but for someone who is into blue-grass or Country music, it is certainly enjoyable. You won't have a craving to hear it every hour of the day, but it certainly isn't an album to be easily forgotten and relegated to the bottom of your record pile.

Their music is an easygoing country-rock that can be pinned down to the American Southwest, a music that is hard to dislike and is among the finest written for automobile radios. "Take It Easy," their first hit, is a theme song for anyone who's ever seen Winslow, Arizona, and other songs of theirs have spoken of fairly specific experiences shared by marfy of their listeners. True - to their past, the new Eagles album consists mostly of catchy and simple songs that will rarely be raved abqut but which will be constantly enjoyable. Several of. the songs are melodies which will be remembered but whose title and performer will slip the mind quickly. The titles reflect where the group is coming from, although neither titles nor lyrics are ever profound: "Too Many Hands," "Lyin' Eyes," "Take It To the Limit," "After The Thrill Is Gone," "I Wish You Peace," etc. And, the album on the whole is pablum, it is very enjoyable pablum. "One Of These Nights," the group's current single, is slow, somewhat low-keyed country-rock. The vocals are simple and the instrumentals are pleasing but hardly spectacular. The overall effect is similar to that of Redbone, which brings up an interesting point: most, of the songs sound a little like things by other jjterformers. Yet, the group obviously did not intend to plagiarize, since composers from Schumann to Ray Davies have used familiar themes in their own pieces.s, to cause an unconscious reaction on the part of listners. Skillfully executed, when a theme is abandoned just before it is recognized, it is an effective technique. Unfortunately, the Eagles have not yet learned how to do this effectively, and several of the songs on One Of These Nights sound as if they were directly inspired by other songs. 'Too Many Hands," the second cut, is out of the "inspired" mold. Specifically, inspired by the old standard "(I'm) Losin' You," it features nice twin leads on guitar by Glenn Frey and Don Felder, and some outstanding rythym work highlighted by Don side, struck me as the best song on the album and probably should have been the single. The beat is similar to the group's earlier single, "Peaceful Easy Feeling," except a little brighter, and the lyrics are unusually intpUectual for latter-day music. The tale of the girl wHb’marries for money and can't find love is helped out by some good piano played by Jim Ed Nofman. •"Ttlke It To The Limit" is a little too slow, but pleasant. Somewhat more countryish than is the Eagle's usual wont, it is a song Lynn Anderson would love if she could write her own lyrics. "Visions" seems to reflect visions of being Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, unfortunately. Not that it's a bad song (it's rather good), but the emulation of CCSNY is almost embarrassing. Some of the riffs seem to come from "Long Time Gone," the introduction sounds like "On The Way Home," and bits here and there resemble cuts from Four Way Street. The problem with the Eagles is that they're just not as talented as CSNY (how well CSNY uses their talent is, of course, debatable), and they should stick to what they do well, which isn't powerhouse Henley's tablas. "Hollywood Waltz" is somewhere between a rock. waltz and a slow ballad, and works despite a "After the Thrill Is Gone" is country blues with resemblance to. Neil Young's song "Harvest."

However, this may prove to be one of the drawbacks on this album. There is no "singular" feeling about any song, especially the vocals. Each performer has a certain way of dealing with an idea (vocally), and different interpretations result when four or five different people alternate verses. However, the instrumentalists provide a unifying background, and keep the general mood from being music. It is obvious that Earl Scruggs is trying to escape for the stereotype of being just a. blue-grass picker. His banjo work has changed from precise, hard-driving flat picking to a mellower type of picking. The blue-grass numbers are adequate, but are a far cry from the dueling they banjo-guitar-fiddle numbers Scruggs made famous with Lester Flatt and the original Foggy Mountain �University graduate umpiring in American League shortstop throw was in plenty of time but the tag. to miss appeared Jim Mason u Bremigan clenched his fist: but to no avail. Burroughs argued the call, by Paige Miller Contributing Editor *' Okay, sports fans: what Buffalo athlete is currently in the major leagues? If you’re stumped, don’t be surprised.

The instant replay on television has also been a boon for umpires, Bremigan contends. It proves they are right the overwhelming majority of the time. But he would not like to see the day when the instant replay can overrule an umpire’s decision. What does Bremigan enjoy most about being an umpire? ‘This might sound a little vain, but it’s the prestige that goes along with being a major league umpire,” he said, verbalizing a common bond between umpires, players and sportswriters. Umpires' also receive a pension and complete insurance coverage. administrators. Of course, it’s a trick question. Nick Bremigan is currently in the American League, but he is an umpire, not a player. Nick graduaged from the State University at Buffalo in 1965 with a degree in history. He was a member of James Peelle’s varsity baseball teams back then, and by his own estimates, was a ninth-string catcher. “Well, 1 wasn’t bad as batting practice pitcher,” he said with a grin, "Other than that 1 didn’t do anything spectacular.” After graduating, Bremigan got a job as a teacher in Rochester, his hometown, but that summer was a turning point in his life. “A friend of mine was into amatuer umpiring around the Rochester area, and he got me interested in it.” Bremigan admitted that while at Buffalo, he had no interest in umpiring at all. Started low At first, he umpired just for some'extra money, but after three and a half years, he was fed up with teaching, and enrolled in umpiring school. He was given a job in the low minor leagues and in 1973, Bremigan was promoted to the American League. He also teaches at the umpiring school now. Making the switch from playing baseball wasn’t too difficult for Nick. “Playing baseball, of course, gives you a knowledge of the game, although umpiring is quite a bit different.” He noted that being a good baseball player did not necessarily make you a good umpire. In fact, of all the professional umpires who to officiating formerly were players, none were stars or even average major leaguers. The only problem Bremigan found in going from playing to umpiring was in his positioning and timing. “The biggest thing 1 had to adjust to was getting into position and giving myself an adequate opportunity to see a play before I called it," he observed. “I think the biggest fault *jf anyone in umpiring is that they want to anticipate, and that leads to mistakes.” limps run, too Apparently, Bremigan has mastered the art of proper positioning.

The final vote was 42-34. — Sent to Brown The State Senate, which had approved the bill with bipartisan support in March, approved several minor amendments added by the Assembly and sent it to Governor Brown, who had called for a civil-citation approach to marijuana laws in his campaign last fall Under the California law, a maximum fine of $100 will be imposed for possession of up to one ounce of marijuana for personal use. Possession of small' amounts will be treated like a traffic offense, with a citation issued, and no arrest record will be made. Possession of more than one ounce of marijuana will still be punishable as a misdemeanor under the California law. In Colorado, the Republican-controlled State Senate voted final approval June 19 for a decriminalization measure ai Deputy District Attorney Jim Moore and Denver Chief Deputy District Attorney Richard Wood call for the elimination of criminal penalties in legislative hearings. Public use banned The State House of Representatives had already passed the bill, and Governor Lamm is expected to sign it in the next few days. Under the new Colorado law, private possession of marijuana will be punishable by the maximum $100 fine, but “public displayor consumption” will 'be punishable .by arrest and up to 15 days in jail, and/or the $100 fine. Possession of more than one ounce for private use will remain a misdemeanor with up to one year in jail and/or a $500 fine. >JJ ' fttj'.y r.tr,'. V.-v/i st. ' -,&0 Friday, 18 July 1975 TTie Spectrum Page thirteen . . �In the Western Division, the Reds have been on an incredible two-month tear in which they have won 41 games in 50 tries. During this time, they have built up a tremendous 13-game lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers, last year’s N.L. champions. The Reds have been led by a trio of perennial All-Stars, Joe Morgan, Johnny Bench, and Pete Rose. Morgan is leading the league in stolen bases and walks, is a close second in batting, and is among the leaders in runs batted in. These imposing credentials another big year, and was the leading vote-getter in the fans’ fighting spirit to equal that of the who have come from behind in 29 of their 61 wins. In order to make it a pennant race, L.A. must come up with an extended winning streak and catch the Reds in a slump. One big problem will be the loss of Joe Ferguson with a broken arm. He’ll probably be out for the rest of the Reds, balloting for the All-Star Game. At third base. Rose is hitting in the top ten after a slow start, fielding well, and, naturally, hustling. In addition to these three, shortstop Dave Concepcion and slugger Tony Perez have made the All-Star team, with the former starting at short. If the Reds’ pitchers can continue to hold up, and the return of Don Bullett can only help them, they should win it easily. season. Closely bunched, but far —UPI The Giants are doing better than a lot of people expected them to, after they traded Bobby Bonds to the New York Yankees. Bobby Murcer is hitting over .300 and is producing runs, but one All-Star does not a pennant-winner make. He’s getting some help from S.F.’s best young pitcher, John Montefusco. behind the two contenders, are Improvement noted the San Francisco Giants, San San Francisco recently swept a series from the Diego Padres, and the Atlanta four-game Dodgers, the first time they did Braves.

Supporters of the plastic containers mainly the chemical — companies themselves and the Society of the Plastics Industry stress its light weight, potential recyclability, and resistance to breakage. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) prepared the by Food and Drug Administration rated the plastic — An unusual aspect of the Lopac bottle and its “relatives” is that containers were Although the manufacturers, Monsanto, including DuPont, Standard Oil (Visitron Corporation), and Borg-Warner, maintain that a refillable bottle is *i i; i.'

It has been estimated that 40 percent of the total energy demand made by the beverage industry could be reduced if the industry converted entirely to refillable containers. The evidence indicates that the introduction of ‘another Page fourteen The Spectrum Triclay, iSJufy 1975 � the of Lopac consequent Not refillable of a discovering chemical and then finding its applications, the requirements for a synthetic container of this sort with depletion of irreplaceable resources (notably fossil fuels), increased littering, and further burden on solid waste disposal.” Citing past apathy toward recycling and the problem of contamination of polyester resins, the EIS concluded that “plastic barrier bottles are unlikely to be recycled in significant quantities.” instead procedure environmental reasons. Nonrefillabie plastic bottles, it observed, “will hasten the trend throwaway thus recovering thj inherent “energy credit” of its Lopac bottles. It plans to offer $200 per ton of Lopac containers returned for recycling. But only Monsanto ventured an estimate as to how long the “optimization” on their bottle would take, which is two to three years. In the meantime, millions of pounds of the bottles will be sold, representing a tremendous waste of energy. Computer used bottle above all other containers in the area of safety. But while acknowledging the safety assets of the plastic bottle, the EIS came down rather heavily against it for a variety of to recycling, barrier bottles (“barrier” because of the low permeability to gases), criticized this approach. “What you asked for, and what you got,'” he noted, is an extremely durable bottle, *so durable that it is a very poor design for a throwaway or ‘no-return’ bottle. “ . “Making a drink bottle durable that it is absolutely impossible to dispose of, without a lot of trouble and money,” added Dr. Odum. “If you burn it you’ve got possible trouble with means noxious gases.

Under new, more affluent ownership, the Giants may be able to recapture some of the glory of bygone days. Down the road in San Diego, the Padres are showing steady improvement under Manager Preston Gomez. Pitcher Randy Jones is a real bright spot, and so is Bill Greif, who threw what Dodger Joe Ferguson believed was a beanball several weeks ago, touching off the melee in which Ferguson’s arm was broken. Bobby Tolan adds hitting punch (no pun intended) to the San Diego club, which took two games from the sizzling Reds the last time they met. Braves hurting The Atlanta Braves are feeling the loss of.

A container designed with the environment and energy conservation in mind would be different from considerably Lopac, which he feels “has been fabricated with manufacturing and commercial properties mostly in mind and environmental impact mostly an afterthought.” While recognizing the hazards of the plastic bottle, the FDA concluded in the EIS that it has years.

The Spectrum has learned. However, the letter did not release any Although University administrators and specific information regarding these cuts department officials refuse to confirm this and when reached at his office, Somit report, confidential documents from the office of President Robert Kettex which refused to disclose any details. But Somit outline tentative proposals for this and admitted that “certain areas have been identified” and any personnel likely to be next year’s budget cuts indicate that the affected will be notified this week. intercollegiate and intramural athletic The letter did report the details of the programs are in danger of losing their state funding. 1975—76 budget cuts totaling $2,835,000. Dean of the School of Health Education According to the proposals, $1,150,000 Harry Fritz said in a telephone interview budget cuts will have to be in implemented for the 1976—77 fiscal year. Of that figure, the Faculty of Health Sciences, which finances the athletic coaches’ salaries, was slated for a $288,000 Possible corrections The committee met several times during the past month, and the proposals outlined in the confidential documents and Somit’s letter reflected its final recommendations. “The Committee concurs with the Provosts that any program proposed for retrenchment be reviewed with the affected faculty as soon as possible, with the view to making such corrections that are found to be desireable,” an attached 1975-76 and 1976-77. • explanation states. to the cutback proposals Among the more serious cutbacks for 1975—76, Campus Security will have to University recommendations. Admission and Records, the President’s Office, Computing Services, and the Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) together must absorb decreases totaling about $155,000 for 1975—76. Nearly all this money, will be saved by eliminiating unfilled, but previously funded professional positions. In addition to cuts in the Faculty of Health Sciences, several other areas face severe reductions for 1976—77, according to the confidential report. Included on the list of proposed program eliminations are Photographic Business Education, the Studies, undergraduate Social Work, Program and the program in Laboratory Animal Proposed faculty and staff reductions one part-time lecturer in Adult Education, two History part-time faculty members, one Sociology full-time faculty employee, and two fill-time faculty members in the Philosophy Department. Unfair treatment Philosophy Chairman Peter Hare feels his department has not been fairly treated in the past, explaining that the last two faculty members hired, specialists in Ancient Philosophy and MOdem Anglo-American Philosophy, were crucial to the department’s academic balance. “We went to a great deal of trouble and thought to hire them,” he said. funds.” Somit’s letter In an open letter to the University dated July8, Executive Vice President Albert Somit wrote, “Thc^^976— 77 budget will affect the University more severely (than the 1975-76 budget] in human terms, since it requires a reduction in our budget base' of slightly more than one million dollars.” money can be saved by redirecting unused salary and wage resources, according to include Student athletic fee? In order to partially achieve the cut, the proposal specifies that the Faculty of Health Sciences “assumes” that the portion of its budget which has been used towards funding intercollegiates and intramurals “will be supported henceforth by non-state Although the possible sources of the “non-state funds” are not definitely known, informed sources speculate that a mandatory studdnt athletic fee is envisioned to pay coaches’ salaries. Such a plan, the sources contend, is consistent with Ketter’s proposals last April to restructure athletics, in which he called upon the Student Association (SA) to “recognize and assume full responsibility for intercollegiate athletics, including initial professional staff.” The University Libraries must face;a $160,000 share of the budget cuts. This Sciences. reduction, The report also suggested that the language departments reorganize to form a with The Spectrum that he had not been informed of the proposed slashing of the Health Sciences ’budget and the consequences for the future of athletics, though he notes that if such measures were instituted with no viable alternative funding, the “effect on the program would be disastrous.” The budget crisis climaxed last month when a University Budget Committee, composed of nine administrators, two decrease its spending by $50,000. Director of Campus Security Patrick Glennon disclosed that of this figure, the student Security Aide program, which costs $13,345, will be eliminated. In order to maintain the same quality of dorm security without the student aides, Glennon said regular Campus Security officers will have to patrol and guard the dormitories themselves. “It will be a lot tougher, but we’ll have to do it,” he stated. “Modern Language Department” (including Puerto Rican Studies) and the Theater Department merge with Music. Somit emphasized “the provisional nature” of any decisions. Since some of the cuts would not go into effect until September, 1976, “we may have some options by that time,” he said. Graduate Student Association President DiFilippo speculated that any decisions which are finalized at the campus level are likely to be approved by higher athorities in Albany. Terry Bright promise Bill proposes student board member member of the SUNY Board of by Laura Bartlett Trustees. Campus Editor A bill that would permit a non-voting student to sit on the State University of New York (SUNY) Board of Trustees and each local university or college council is expected to be approved by the State Legislature before it adjourns at the end of this week. The bill, which amends the state education law, was put on Legislative Director Ray Glass, the agenda after “monumental who is resigning this year after pressure” from “everyone in the several years of pushing for this passage, declared a state except the SUNY Board of bill’s Trustees,” Student Association of “legislative alert,” and entreated the State University (SASU) all SUNY student governments, Kirkpatrick SASU delegates, and campus Bob President newspapers to “flood Warren explained.

Favorable action expected He said Dr. Holloman assured SASU of “favorable action” by the legislator, indicating that the Republican party and Warren Anderson stood to gain politically by passage of the bill. “The only people in the state that are against it are the other trustees,” Kirkpatrick -surmised. Senator James McFarland (D., Buffalo), one of the bill’s Sponsors, said he supported it because “the present structure does not provide for meaningful representation of student opinions and objectives.” The current system, in which some students are allowed out of courtesy to observe formal board meetings as non-members, is unsatisfactory because they are not permitted to attend executive sessions, “which is where most of the decisions are really made,” McFarland explained. ... Illustrating dilemna, this SASU President Dan Kohane indicated that although he was allowed to observe formal sessions of the SUNY Board of Trustees last year, he was not aware of the decision to further the SUNY cut the budgets schools. “These cuts will certainly be detrimental to the interests of students,” he declared. “1 knew nothing about them at all while the decision was being made.” former Limited rights Discussing further drawbacks in the present system, McFarland said, “Students are not necessarily accorded the right to speak on all matters, to bring matters to the consideration of these boards, to make motions, or to exercise other functions which would be non-voting accorded to members.” Clifford Thorne, SUNY Vice Chancellor loj Student Affairs, told SASU that the* board objected to the bill because it for provided nomvoting a member, which they feel is “not necessarily a responsible one.” “In that case, they should have approved of the bill last year, when it provided for a voting member,” student Glass responded. He contended that students the right to elect a representative to sit on these boards, not only because their interests are not adequately represented, but because they “are the consumers of the educational process” and are contributing more than $200 million annually in tuition and fees to SUNY. have • �' m \ Stony Brook is of debts Suspension city be will law Voting Council rejected by Common tested by students by Rosalie Zuckerman Special Features Editor The amendment to the New York State election law which prohibits a student attending a university outside his hometown voting The Buffalo Common Council has rejected a resolution by Councilman Horace Johnson 18-month calling for, an suspension of all city debts to meet the “immediate threat” of a fiscal crisis. In a speech before the Council on June 24, Johnson said Buffalo was in a “state of financial emergency” and has reached a point of “temporary insolvency” where it cannot pay back its debts without massive job layoffs and serious cutbacks in public services. The resolution, drafted by the U.S., Labor Party and Black caucus groups, was severely criticized by Council members for being “unconstitutional, illegal” and “slanderous to the Makowski administration.” district from voting where he is living will soon be challenged in court by students at the State University at Stony Brook. Rene Chaeimi, associate Editor of the Statesman, Stony Brook’s student newspaper, will attempt to register to vote in Suffolk County, where the University is located. After he is rejected by the local election board, a suit challenging the law will be filed in State Supreme Court. The plan was initiated by Aaron Rutherford, an independant candidate for Suffolk County Executive. Rutherford contacted Earl Weprin, Legal Affairs Coordinator for the student government at Stony Brook, because of Weprin’s work on a committee studying a student’s unsuccessful attempt to register last November. Jason Mann, Executive Editor of the Statesman, said the suit was given impetus by the State Supreme Court decision in Ramy vs. Rockefeller, in which a student was ultimately allowed to register in his university district. “The court declined to announce a formal decision,” Mann explained, “but what they did do Was tefitheftoard of elections, let this kid vote or well announce a decision directing you to.’ The board was smart and let the kid vote.” *, ' Both Foschio and O’Connell told the Council that defaulting on debts would seriously damage Legal mmpHrariftM City the city’s credit rating by making O’Connell, George Comptroller, and Leslie Foschio, Interest rates so high that the city City /Legal Counsel, warned the would never be able to borrow Council of the serious legal and money again, financial difficulties that would ensure if the city were to default Damage done on its payment of debts. Johnson believes, however, “I cannot believe that the that Buffalo’s credit rating has Council is serious about defaulting already been seriously damaged municipal bonds and I hope to and that the city is in a state of sustain such an actioh,” Foschio “deterioration.” Although the city is trying to attract many said.

Both Foschio and O’Connell this resolution “patently illegal,” Foschio stressed. “It’s just like denied Johtison’s charges that the Congress postponing payment on city was in a state of “collapse” or ' your U.S. savings bonds,” he said, that it was incapable of paying \ back its debts. Foschio did acknowledge, however, that the city is facing serious financial problems. Johnson claims that the activities of the U.S. Labor Party in the proximity of City Hall “upset” members of the council, causing them to kill the resolution immediately without referring it to the legislation committee for further discussion. majority Council leader Anthony M. Masiello said he was prepared to submit the resolution to the legislation committee, but refused to acknowledge it after receiving a memo from which called Party Labor Councilman Bill Price and Budget Comptroller Phil Cook “Nazis.” “I will not give any attention who people intimidate to members of the council like that,” Masiello asserted.

' Student political control The court’s action only pertained to the individual case, however “This will be a class suit,” Mann said. , ”• Weprin said he believes student attempts to register have not resulted in favorable decisions because they have too close to election time. “Most students don’t even start to think about registering and voting until September. Then the court doesn’t get arouncj/to deciding until November, and there’s not time to appeal it,” he explained. Weprin said the staged registration rejection will be carried out soon, and the case will be settled by November. A favorable decision would especially benefit students at small-town colleges, where newly enfranchised students could conceivably control the town politically, he added. Some help for the case will probably come from the American Civil Liberties Union, Weprin said. Jury clears Shango in Attica murder trial A State Supreme Court jury Bahati acquitted Shango Kakawana (Bernard Stroble) late last Thursday of charges of and murder unlawful imprisonment during the 1971 Attica prison rebellion.* The jury of seven women and five men deliberated for nearly six hours before reporting its verdict to State Supreme Court Justice Joseph Mattina. Kidnap and felony murder charges against Shango were dismissed earlier in the trial by Mattina for lack of evidence. Attorney Assistant General Cryan contended that Shango cut fellow inmate Barry Schwartz’s throat in the early hours of the uprising because Schwartz and inmate Kenneth Francis Hess, also found murdered, spoke to a reporter-'without 'first obtaining permission from the inmates negotiating board. thirty About courtroom spectators cheered and applauded as jury foreman Otto Leff announced the not guilty verdict.

During its deliberations the jury reviewed the testimony of two medical examiners and a former inmate who was present during the rebellion.

The verdict brings the total Attica number of freed defendants to six. Three former inmates were found innocent by a Stgte Supreme Court jury last month of charges of assault and coercion against three prison guards. Charges -against Willie and assaulting Smith of sodomizing correction officers were dismissed during pre-trial hearings for lack of corroborative testimony, and inmate Vernon TeFranque, tried for possession of %a gun and prison contraband, was acquitted after 20 minutes of jury deliberation.

Reitz was one of ten students arrested, in connection with a sit-in in Hayes Hall in late April to protest the administration’s blocking of funds approved by the Student Assembly for buses to Albany the following Monday for rallies and workshops supporting the Attica defendants.

Civil charges against three students arrested near the Campus Security offices on Winspear Avenue were dismissed by Judge Sam Green in early June. The acquital of Reitz and Gonzalez has led to speculation that the remaining five students who face civil charges will not be prosecuted. President Robert Ketter suspended Reitz, who was to have completed work on his PhD next year, until fall 1976. Four other students, including Gonzalez, were suspended for six months.

Additionally, any athletic fee would send student monies diifectly over to the Athletic Department and out of the jurisdiction of students. Thus, even if such a fee were instituted, students would have no control over its Contrary to disbursement. The University has a basic obligation to ail its students to maintain a well-rounded educational program. Considering that one-third of the total student mandatory fee budget ($222,000) goes to athletics, and of that figure, approximately $180,000 goes to intercollegiate athletics alone, students regard these programs as necessary for an active, complete University. But the programs cannot exist without experienced coaches, and students simply cannot be expected to pay their salaries. The administrators who propose budget cuts should only be more sensitive to these realities.

No one ever listens to those kinds of pleas though, no one ever thinks twice about driving by the broken and destitute beings who habitate the curbs of society, with right arms outstretched, parallel to the pavement, and thumbs that point to a heaven that exists for only those people who own cars. The hitchhiker garners sympathy from himself, mainly, and a very few individuals who keep Woodstock alive in their hearts, as well as their glove compartments. In a sense, the hitchhiker is allied with the driver who knows what it's like to stand against oncoming cars while peering at halves of bodies of nameless souls through darkened windshields. “Climb in, old sport, and take your shoes off.” “Why must I take my shoes off?” I asked the man who has Woodstock in his heart. “Because the last guy who owned this car once operated a geisha house.” The inside of the driver’s car was ultra-plush, plusher than the dining room of the Holiday Inn, much more extravagant than Dr. Ketter’s 10th floor hide-away in Goodyear Hall. When you squeezed the cover, it whispered seat “PLUSHHHHHHHHHHHH.” ‘This car certainly is plushy. You must have spent a fortune to make it so plushy,” 1 gawked. “1 like it plushy. But I didn’t have to spend a cent to make it plushy, as a matter of fact, this plushy car was given to me.” “It’s good and plushy.” “Where are you going, by the way?” “Plushy Avenue, that is, Elmwood.” ‘That’s where Buff State is. That’s where all the girls are. I like girls. I often pick up many girls there hitching, and we drive around smoking cigarettes in my plushy car.” “Oh, that’s nice.” “I’m always picking up hitchhikers, just as many boys as girls, too. I like boys. When they first get in the car, they’re usually soft, but when I drop them off, i get them hard.” Soft and hard? The boys are soft, then hard? He likes the girls, he likes the boys, he likes smoking cigarettes in a plushy ca' that was given to him by 10 or IS nobodies wearing clothes that were meant for thinner men and smelling of Brute, English Leather, and Lectric Shave. “You mean soft pack and hard pack, don’t you?” ‘That is correct.” “Which do YOU prefer?” “I like the box.” “I knew it, I knew it! You’re Rod Serling reincarnated, coming back to fuck me up! Why do you like the box?” ‘This is Elmwood. Have a good day.” I watched as he drove away, and 1 swear to God, that plushy car vanished into thin air. It vanished good like a cigarette should. — On being labelled paternalistic ‘ ’ public To the Editor. I refer to the article, “Student acquitted of criminal trespass charge in city court,” that appeared on page one of the June 27 The Spectrum. Dana Dubbs and David Sites write that “at one point” while I was on the stand, “Judge Green had to admonish Dr. Siggelkow for being ‘paternalistic’ in his answers,” a report that will surprise more than please the Judge. Presiding Judges must be objective and do not characterize the quality of responses by witnesses in this manner. There is, then, a clear implication that this Judge acted unprofessionally and abandoned his traditional and necessarily impartial role. In short. Judge Green did not personally admonish me about being paternalistic at any time during or after the proceedings. Ask him.

To me, at least, the imposition of such force by demonstrators no longer qualified their action as either a peaceful or appropriate form of dissent. Further, individuals who elect such actions should have the courage to face up to the consequences of their decision and realize that they can be held responsible. I must also question the defendant’s conclusion after the trial that the administrative action in attempting to deal with the “sit-in” can so logically and effortlessly be translated into an administrative ploy “to suppress the facts concerning the injustice of the handling of the Attica rebellion.” The initial ruling that mandatory student fee monies could not be used to bus students to a “rally” in Albany clearly did not fall within SUNY Trustee guidelines authorizing expenditures of such funds. This was, and should remain, a separate issue. In no way can that particular decision be related unless by spurious or deliberately misleading reporting, that ranged from misspelling names to reasoning to anyone’s feelings about the tragedy quoting the warning statement out of context. Incidentally, I may at times appear to some as of Attica or even be perceived by any rational paternalistic; however, my consistent posture has observer as condoning glaring injustices and always been far from “paternalistic,” and in strong inadequacies when these exist within an archaic disagreement with any demonstrators who decide to penal system. take the law into their own hands and superimpose their will on olhejrs.

From here it's very simple; music like this makes dancing to music like this very difficult.

"Very uncomfortable for the Dormouse," thought Alice... — — Last June 27-29 The Zodiaque Company presented Summer Dance ‘75 {directed by Linda Swiniuch. It was choreographed entirely by Company members, and (here's the rub) it featured the music of five modern composers, all of them famous murderers of musical time: Earle Brown, John Cage, Morton Feldman, Lucas Foss and Lejaren Hiller. It was a kind of Mad Tea Party, like the one Carroll invented: the performance put some people to sleep (though they were certain to wake up intermittently), it forced others to continually glance at their watches and fret over murdered time, it produced moments of genial puzzlement in others like those Alice had and it endowed still others with flashes of pleasant, temporary madness. Everybody who saw the production "nibbled some more of the left-hand bit of mushroom" r- dance audiences are like that anyway before they entered the enchanted circle of Baird Hall. Once inside, they were all transformed into Mad Hatters, Dormice, March Hares, and like this reviewer curious Alices. One night in particular the audience was very crude mostly and March Hares. The chief Dormouse was seated near the front, his white housepainter's hat askew on his head. Sitting in front of him (I swear) was a little girl, looking much like the real Alice. She was alone in the front row and maintained a perfect balance between fantasy and forgiveness. At one point, just after the intermission, she turned in her seat and hissed for the audience to be quiet they had suddenly awakened and - - — — slowly and stiffly across the rear of the stage, chanting a wildly absurd grocery list. It was hilarious and terrifying. — — — - — "Have you guessed the riddle yet?" the Hatter said, turning to Alice again. "No, give it up,” Alice replied. "What's the answer?" "I haven't the slightest idea,"said the Hatter. / The first piece in Summer Dance '75 choreographed by Wendy Biller after John Cage's 1965 "Rozart Mix" and called "For the Magician" was the evening's weakest piece, unless my critical vision is just being cross-eyed in disguise. It combined the Company's most impressionistic and abstract choreographer (Biller) with the most ambitious and difficult piece of music. Cage's composition was a helter-skelter of everyday sounds dogs barking, clocks ticking, babies crying and gooing, and bits of conversation, argument, and radio voice in several languages. It ended with a human voice saying in a faintly discernable way, "This be error" repeated once in case we didn't understand it the first time. (I think this is one of the times the Dormouse woke up.) The dancers who acted out Biller's choreography Janice Birnbaum, Joy Sheppard, and Betsey Wagner —-did a fine job of moving in such a way that the music was in - — - — — showed the strongest theme (murdering time), which I am as were the sure was superimposed on the music multiple themes of the first piece. Patricia DaVinney "narrated" the dance as she strolled across the stage, reading the “"Mad Tee Party” episode front Lewis"fearroll's Alice's Adventures iitWoriderland She ended the reading (in the dark, after the dancing had ceased) with the program's prominent ifdny: "You can draw water out of a water-well," said the Hatter, "so I should think you could draw treacle out of a treacle-well eh, stupid?" Oddly, the piece which deserved a title most due to its clarity and simplicity was the third one, "Untitled," choreographed by Janice Birnbaum. After forty minutes of frantic avant-garde, the audience was treated to this relatively straightforward (and certainly lovely) technical accomplishment. No one was talking over the Dormouse's head here and the program drifted sweetly into intermission. Of course, Birnbaum had the decided advantage of dealing with the least "modern" piece of music, Earle Brown's 1965 "String-Quartet." To my nakedly common eye, the movements in "Untitled" seemed to be the most technically proficient of the night, and the transitions seemed to be the smoothest. The tone of the piece hummed along a single creative nerve: it was slow, deliberate, eerie and faintly sad. The four women who danced (Wendy Biller, Roz Jacobowitz, Joy Sheppard, and Betsey Wagner) seemed perfectly suited to one another's — . — — — movements. The second half of Summer Dance 75 was the strongest. I feel sorry for the scattering of March Hares who filed out at the intermission, never to return. At a very uncomplicated level, Frank Maraschiello's "A Gentle Parade" the fourth piece in the show was the easiest to watch: there were only two people on stage (Frank himself, and Holly Stoehr). They both looked beautiful. I mean, they looked preternaturally large and physically gorgeous in smooth, gull white leotards faintly etched with red and green words and designs. Frank is to be commended for more than the prowess and beauty of himself and his partner and for more than the graceful (though somewhat disconnected) involved; I think his opening was soberly brilliant, a real existential tour-de force. There was a jumble of television sets in one corner at the rear of the stage (the only props used in the program, by the way). A deadpan Frank strolled in, carrying what sounded like a transistor radio blaring Italian opera. He set down his gear, stripped off a jacket he was wearing, turned on the televisions (the screens were blank silver), and commenced to warm-up for the dance. (Holly Stoehr had drifted in mysteriously.) The scene had all the dead calm and ambiance of breakfast with a wife of seventeen years. — — movements Vet there was an aura of complete, though misplaced, which Stoehr and Maraschiello proceeded to act out when the warm-up was done, and the radio was off, and when they had drifted back onto stage after a brief stroll off stage to "get ready." Someone pointed out to me that the transitions between movements in this piece were too abrupt. That may have been so, but the paradoxical aura of dead health was enough to dispell any technical missteps. The program ended on a light note with Robert Coe's "Complications tor Three," danced by Coe and Janice Birnbaum and Cheryl Johnson to Lejaren Hiller's "Machine Music for Piano, Percussion and Tape" (1964). This music seemed perfectly suited to what I think are Coe's basic choreographic strengths: mime (of a rather to accommodate the angular variety probably technological rhythms of the music), leaps and runs (his leaping especially was very impressive and smooth), and other aspects of the dramatic possibilities of movement. There was some kind of queer, unfathomable love interest in this piece (I don't want to impose my own theories), but it was basically of the lighthearted variety. Zodiaque is a young company barely a year old. But like the Dormouse who sat near me and who wore the paper hat probably dreams of "your basic hammer," I dream of "your basic music" and hope the next Zodiaque program uses it. They were running up a glass mountain here, like the one in the fairy tale. Their goal was sincere and attractive, but it took a lot of skidding and arm flailing and false sexuality — - were telling stories. The second half was threatening to begin, so the Chief Dormouse gave his paper hat an extra twist and slumped lower in his chair. Somebbdy was about to start talking over his head again. Alice felt dreadfully puzzled. The Hatter's remark seemed to her to have no sort of meaning in it, and yet it was certainly English. some way understandable. (In fact, the strength of the whole program might have been its offering us a way to listen to this weird music.) The weakness of the dance may have been the necessity of inventing mimic patterns and dramatic sequences which were clearly superimposed on the music itself the only theme of which was chaos. "Dissertations," the second piece in the five-part program, was choreographed by Linda Swiniuch (who performed in it as well with the Company's four men)! It was inspired by three of Morton Feldman's — — It is possible to have great sympathy Alices (who were puzzled and kind) and the Dormice (who were asleep). Modern music and certainly modern dance requires a certain patience, a certain forgetfulness, and a certain lapse into fantasy if one is to understand it at all. To paraphrase a recent critic: "Things are often like that in dance; one accepts a kind of dream logic in what one sees. Though dance may haunt the imangination, it does not trouble the intellect. It's an imaginative world we enter when we go to the dance and the fafct that we are unable to formulate meanings only strengthens its power to affect — — compositions. — cunning to get to the top. THe music rose and fell, cresting in brief moments of high tension and activity and rolling back into moments characterized by little musical activity or energy. Swiniuch used the varied pace of the music to good thematic effect: in the times of little musical activity, each of the dancers fell into a passive role expressive of boredom, frustration or emptiness (in short, everyday life): whistling, stretching, counting numbers, reciting the alphabet or lying down.

Billed as "an entertainment based on the songs, plays, stories, poems and sayings" of ttife lady whose presence captivated the New York literary and social scene of the twenties, the theatrical adaptation by Thomas Fontana provided an eager audience with just that entertainment. Crowded into an intimate space, a small and economically designed stage established an effective connection between audience and performers. Using only the most essential props, three young and energetic performers worked well together to present a rather lengthy sampling of Dorothy Parker material. Such pieces as "Lunch at the Algonquin" and "On Writing and Writers," which were included in the first act, were amusing and lively potpourris of the writer's fast and caustic quips. Mrs. Parker, as she was often referred to by the players, had a piercingly cynical view of events and persons who crossed her life. Her particular talent drew from her almost uncanny ability to comment on these elements with a sense of humor tailor made to beguile most and enrage others. — Smiles thru the heartbreak In everything that she wrote, be it the familiar tune "I Wished On The Moon" from The Big Broadcast of 1936 or the short poem, "Resume," the recurrent themes of disappointing love and the hardship of life dominate. A particularly attractive monologue that highlighted the latter portion of the show was "A Telephone Call." Well-acted by Patricia Weber, it concerns a young woman driven to near-madness by the anxiety of a promised call from her lover. It is an effective example of Dorpthy Parker's use of humor to shield deeper and more tragic feelings of rejection and hurt. Less engaging was the more flippant excerpt from High Society entitled, "A Way to Succeed on the Stage." In this piece, a young actress, portrayed nicely by Pamela Kilburn, directs her advice to the audience. She encourages those interested in a stage career to' act somewhat like she did, by raising her skirt before interested producers. From a more modern standpoint, this approach loses some of its original humor due to its obvious datedness. Board against the wall "We're up against the wall. We need people," pleads Benders, who reports that the 1975-76 directorships of the literary arts, video, film and technical services committees, as well as the bookkeeper's job and a tentative position as office manager (now half of the Division Director's own job, which also includes acting as "the accountable agent between Sub-Board and Union Board"), are currently up for grabs. The present coordinators in charge of concerts, coffeehouses, the gallery, and dance and dramatic arts are all expected to re-apply for their positions this summer, but newcomers are invited to present their, qualifications anyway, as a continual re-evaluation of committee effectiveness is one of Benders' primary goals. "I went right through the University Directory page by page" to compile a mailing list for the press releases that were sent to campus organizations and adacemic departments. Benders explained, but the addressees' apparent refusal to cooperate in his membership drive has so far contributed to his difficulties. Requirements are as loose as possible applicants need only display "some interest in cultural events" and "at least an openness to learn the business" but few prospective chairpeople have gotten close enough to the workshops evto , — - IF YOU LIKE metro bonu/ BAMBOO You'll love Our toil UP SHADES Split Match Stick s, Tortise Shell Finish FINCES (That's Itightl) A Ft. x 15 Ft.

In a charming and eloquent voice, the lady of the evening recited a poem she had written early in her life called, "The Little Old Lady in Lavender Silk."

Picture it that way and you have a highly accurate description of Popeye Doyle, the NYC cop portrayed by Hackman in William Gene Friedkin's The French Connection now back among us in John Frankenheimer's French Connection II. Doyle has a certain cunning (sonething of necessity for one in his trade, it seems). But he's a a vulgar basically lout, bulldoaing man who possesses two qualities valuable to that trade.

To describe his activities in French Connection II is to collide with an oblique question: if you pile enough absurdities onto one another, will ybu eventually reach a point where they make a sort of sense?

His French with begins and ends From "Mademoiselle Armentieres.*' His first few days angularly are in Marseilles unproductive. We begin to wonder why Doyle was sent there at all.

Yet, when Charnier has Doyle kidnapped and questioned, it makes all the Caught-22 sense* in the world; if this were a true story, that is beyond doubt would happen. exactly what (Granted that the reason it was done here was simply that Doyle is the hero, Charnier the villain, and that a confrontation is drathaticllly unavoidable; it's still, a notable very least, at of near-lunatic achievement insight.) Thin accompaniment as Doyle's French counterpart, it is to Fernando Rey (Charnier) and to Hackman that most of the film's strength belongs. Director Frankenheimer ends the film when their final confrontation ends, without benefit of denouement. , The saddest aspect of French Connection II is its revelation of of John the decline Frankenheimer. Though some sequences are in themselves fairly gripping, he doesn't manage to combine the elements of the film into a coherent whole.

There is exactly one effective moment in the film: as Hackman sees his wife driving away with her clandestine lover, we- see the light glinting off of Hackman's wedding ring. Night Moves tries to duplicate the kind of humid, miasmic that Orson tension Welles achieved in Touch of Evil; the Night Moves touch, however, is all thumbs.

For most of the set she accompanied herself on electric guitar and the texture, supported only by bass and drums, was a little thin. I think her live sound would be greatly augmented by another musician on keyboards or guitar. Waldman's set, which ran a little over an hour, consisted of songs from all three of her albums, mostly uptempo, even though the slower, softer ones drew the best reaction. Among others, she performed "Gringo En Mexico," "Baby Don't You Go," "Boat Man," "Western Lullabye," and of course, "Mad Mad Me." The last of these is probably her best known song, as well as the best written, and, despite the murmur at the bar, it came off very well. All things considered, it was a good (but not fantastic) concert by an underrated woman in an unusual atmosphere.

She is often compared with Maria, but don'tbelieve it. She has a lot more class (and frizzier hair too), and has never done a song about getting laid in the desert. She does, however, have a small but loyal following, and I think it likely that every Waldman fan in Buffalo went to see her at one of the four shows July 1 and 2. Wendy has a very distinctive voice, equally at home singing blues or ballads, and she beats the pants off the likes of Muldaur or Bonnie Raitt, as far as I'm concerned. Her songwriting, although inconsistent, is occasionally brilliant, surpassing even Joni Mitchell for lyrical content. 1 understanding acting, Popeye Doyle easily is the most interesting of the dubious breed of cinematic might-makes-right vigilantes.

A year ago? it seems a lifetime ago; something you read about somewhere in a history book; it seems longer than a year because we have been trying to forget it. In July, 1975, the geraniums bloom in Lafayette Park across from the White House just as they did then; the weather is hot and humid as it was a year ago, and the mood of the nation toward Watergate is still uncertain, and enervated. Last year it was numbed, too; it leaped briefly into a firestorm of anger when the President fired the special prosecutor, but quieted again as the Ervin committee ended its work and the House Rodino committee passed interminable weeks behind closed doors. At the last though, the mood began to change, showing hidden reserves of indignation as the drama moved to its incredible climax. Before long the Supreme Court would speak unanimously, forcing out the final tapes, including the conversation, June 23, 1972, that contained Nixon’s agreement to use the CIA to halt the FBI’s investigation. That ended it. That was the “smoking pistol.” What produced those final weeks a year ago? After election in 1972 the president’s popularity rating near an all time high was 68 percent. He won by a landslide: 61 percent to 38 percent, endorsed by 753 daily newspapers to 56 for McGovern, whose inept campaign never got off the ground. The nation relaxed. This would be a calmer period under a “new” Nixon. As Henry Kissinger explained, ‘There’s a certain you know, it’s a big word but it’s a certain heroic quality about how he conducts his business.” Indeed there was bravura about it; those Graustarkian costumes Nixon approved for White House guards, and the trumpet fanfare used to herald his entrance on state occasions. And all the time the man in the White House knew that a crime had been committed, that he had participated in the crime in the cover up, and that upon him now a trap seemed to be closing, more and more threatening. - - - - r MOJTHZ COH6PV TRB a> ° In July, a year ago, the final defense was giving way as the president's, celebrated lawyer, Janies D. St. Clair, tried to convince the black-robed justices that the confidentiality of presidential conversations should be absolute. Justice Marshall, July 8, posed a hypothetical case: if confidentiality were absolute, he asked, how could a judge, say. be exposed, who had made a deal with a President for money? “Why." St. Clair answered brightly, “the remedy is clear, he should be impeached.” “But how are you going to impeach him.” asked Marshall, “if you don’t know about it?” St. Clair lamely replied that “very few things forever are hidden.” A year ago one could guess which way the Court would decide. It had taken a long time to reach this point. Sunday papers of June 18. 1972 carried paragraphs about five men arrested in the Watergate headquarters of the Democratic National Committee. In a rented room nearby were 32 one-hundred-dollar bills and the notebook of “E. Hunt" with a notation "W.H." Could this mean White House? Presidential press secretary Ronald Ziegler said he wouldn't comment “on a third-rate burglary attempt.” (White House reporters arc still over-reacting to this by asking mean questions of Ron Ncssen.) The New York Times could hardly take it seriously; it headlined subsequent stories “Watergate Caper,” or “Watergate Whodunit.” And all the time from then on, behind the scenes, the president guarded his secret and felt himself under attack from the “elite,” “the intellectuals," the “Establishment,” and responded in kind. There were a lot of secrets coming to light in Washington a year ago. They are still making news today. In a little-noticed unanimous report the Ervin committee revealed the price tags on brokeraged foreign envoy posts, noting that Herbert Kalmbach, the Nixon fund-raiser, was “the first person in modern times to be convicted for selling an ambassadorship.” It printed the list of Western European ambassadors and their contributions to the Nixon 1972 campaign. A New York Times story says that Mrs. Farkas now facing possible indictment, blames others for tempting her millionaire husband to buy her an i-to We notice To the Editor I just wanted to express my thanks to the many people at maintenance for the fine job they are doing.

He told Rabbi Korff, leader of a pro-Nixon group and author of a just published book, The Personal Nixon: Staying on the Summit, that Watergate would be remembered as “the broadest but the thinnest scandal in American history.” The interview was released, July 16 at San Clemente. Nixon took a forgiving attitude toward his enemies. As for this column, we wrote, (July 6, 1974) “Various events are finally approaching conjunction.” We were anxious the strain shows. “What in God’s name,” we asked, “is the public thinking? We think the public is out there waiting, far ahead of Congress. It has lost track of details; it has made up its mind; somehow or other we should get another president." For a year America has tried to forget Watergate. Now, maybe, we can look back at it with dearer eyes. - RrkUy, 11 July 1975 Th* . um. « �I K»W' Hfwe euy Trtt 6Ee«p HOW, It'Ll, w c«t>s t**« time the j s sws rfrtiiscSepuiE f«* iI?

Since 1968, the New York State Bicentennial Commission has been working with local cities and counties in developing programs to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the U.S. In an effort to increase public awareness of the historical significance of Buffalo, the local chapter of the Bicentennial Commission has been busy planning events to commemorate' two centuries of independence. Erie County got a headstart June 17 by celebrating Bunker Hill day in Forest Lawn with a for the Americans killed in the Cemetery v Battle of Bunker Hill. Forest Lawn contains the remains of people who fought in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and the Civil War as well as famous Indian leaders who first inhabited Buffalo over 200 years ago. The festivities began with a colorful minute century man parade and the firingof County muskets, followed" by Executive Ned Regan placing a wreath of artificial flowers on a monument dedicated 100 years ago to the dead heroes of Bunker Hill. Lady witness The crowd then moved to the Erie County Historical Museum where it was addressed by Richard Brown, Professor of History at Buffalo State College, on the Battle of Bunker Hill and the role played by women. He said one of the few official accounts of the battle was received from Ann Holton, a “loyalist lady” who reconditioned to fight the victorious battle ofLake Erie in 1813. Hie olden days Not far from the State University at Buffalo, on Main Street, where Mt. St. Joseph’s Academy now stands, an army witnessed the entire battle from a hilltop. Newspaper and other written reports were based mostly on hearsay, he claimed. The local Bicentennial Commission is proud of the role the city of Buffalo played in American history and it has done a great deal of research into this area. For example: If you were living along Niagara St. or in downtown Buffalo in 1812, chances are you would not be stuck at home with nothing to da you’d be too busy fighting — the British. If you were living along Lafayette Square, Pearl or Eagle Streets, your house would have been completely destroyed when the British burned Buffalo in 1813. One of the major battles in Western New York during the War of 1812 took place on Niagara and Tonawanda Streets and the most important fortification on the American shore, Fort Tompkins, stood at 1010 Niagara Street. Commodore Oliver Perry parked his naval vessels near the mouth of Scajaquada Creek until they were camp harboring 300 soldiers thrived during the 1812 clash with the British. Believe it or not, Buffalo was inhabited as early as the 18th century. The first white settlement in Buffalo was founded in 1768 on South Michigan Avenue but was evacuated one year later by the British. The first white women ever to reside in the city of Buffalo were brought here as captives by the Seneca Indians in 1780. If things in the “Queen City” were not more exciting 200 years ago, they were certainly different. For example, if you decided to visit the site of War Memorial Stadium in 1795, you would see an Indian trading post called Palmer’s Tavern. In 1852 along 238 Main Street, you would find a Well’s Fargo Station where the Buffalo Chamber of Commerce Building now stands. The present home of the Niagara Bank once housed Grover rontier F Cleveland’s law practice while the Cloister’s Restaurant on Delaware Avenue began its career in 1869 as Mark Twain’s Riding Stables. It might also interest all former chairpersons of the Student Association (SA) Speakers Bureau to know that the Buffalo community had no trouble getting the Marquis de Lafayette and Abraham Lincoln to speak where the Main Place Mall now stands. UB Ten trials Student acquitted of criminal trespass charge in city court by Dana Dubbs and David Sites Special to The Spectrum Ishmael Gonzalez, one of ten students arrested at the April 25 demonstration at Hayes Hall, was acquitted of criminal trespass Friday morning by a jury in City Court after twenty minutes of deliberation. Additional charges of resisting arrest and third-degree assault were dismissed by Judge Sam Green earlier in the morning. The assault charge was based on accusations that Mr. Gonzalez the first of seven witnesses to punched the glass window in the testify for the prosecution. He entrance door to President Robert asserted that he was able to Ketter’s office suite, causing positively distinguish Mr. flying glass to cut Campus Gonzalez from the other sixty Security Officer Charles Scripp on people assembled in Hayes Hall the nose. The charge was that morning. A crucial point to dismissed after Mr. Scripp’s the prosecution’s case, however, medical report disclosed that he was whether or not the had received no treatment for the five-minute warning statement which Dr. Sigglekow read to the wound. Judge Green dismissed the demonstrators before the arrests charge of resisting arrest after was clear. prosecution testimony A passage from the statement by witnesses showed that neither of said, “You will be given five the two arresting officers minutes to clear this building. identified themselves to the Any individual who does not defendant, wore uniforms, or abide by this request will be asked asked Mr. Gonzalez to present to identify. himself or herself.

In his opening opportunity to a show-cause statement, defense attorney John hearing later this morning in the Daley told the six-member jury President’s office ...” Mr. Daley said that, according that the incident at Hayes Hall on April 25 was a “microcosm of to this rule, outsiders, not students, should be arrested for Attica.” Siggelkow, Vice criminal trespass. Richard At one point during the President for Student Affairs, was , cross-examination by Mr. Daley, Judge Green had to admonish Dr. Siggelkow for being “paternalistic" in his answers, and for not responding directly to the questions. Ron Stein, Associate Director of Student Affairs and Services, testified on behalf of the prosecution to support the charge of assault. He described how upon entering the presidential suite, he saw Officer Scripp bleeding. When asked where he was bleeding from, however, Dr. Stein said he did not know. He also could not identify the defendant. Lee Griffin, Assistant director of Campus Security, testified that he entered the Presidential Suite on April 25 at 8:15 a.m. He said he observed Mr.. Gonzalez in Hayes Hall and stated that he had been “pointed out to him at the previous day’s sit-in because he seemed to be assuming “a leadership role.” Mr. Griffin later shifted his testimony to say that Mr. Gonzalez was “a new arrival on the scene,” and that he was unaware that he was even a student. •Cool it’ Mr. Griffin held that Campus Security officers stationed inside the presidential suite intended to push the door open. He claimed he himself was not pushing the door prior to the window breaking, but that officer Danek and Campus Security Director Patrick Glenrio- vere.

At one point in- Mr. Griffin’s testimony, he stated that the officers in the suite had no weapons or nightsticks, and none were used. But he was contradicted when Mr. Daley displayed a photograph showing one of the officers coming out of the suite with a nightstick in his right hand. Wednesday, Mr. Scripp took the witness stand to substantiate the charges of assault and resisting arrest against Mr. Gonzalez. He testified that upon arriving at —continued on page 4 — �Board co Attica defendants Food Service will seek an average 8 percent hike in board contract prices in the fall, primarily resulting from “a slight loss” suffered by the Food Service Division over the past year, Director Donald Hosie announced. An average contract price rise of 8 percent will yield a 22 percent rise in anticipated revenues for Food Service, due to an increase in the number of students living in the dorms,' according to Bruce Campbell, Student Association (SA) Vice President for Sub-Board I and a Faculty Student Association (FSA) board member. At, that rate, the Food Service Division would make a profit of $82,000, Mr. Campbell said. Mr. Hosie disputed the concept of a Food Service profit, claiming that replacement of furniture and equipment such as silverware, is not covered in the regular budget and must therefore be provided for through cash reserves. Some of the furniture in the Rathskeller, for example, is in bad need of “In he said. replacement, addition, an increase in the cost of meat can wipe us out despite $3 million in sales,” he said. Food Service will offer four of the five present contract options next year and will add one new one. Options that will be continued include the 10-meal plan, in which a student can eat any two meals a day, five days a week; a 13-meal are found innocent Three former Attica inmates were found innocent by a State Supreme Court jury of charges of assault and coercion against three prison guards during the uprising in 1971. Freed were Robert Dugarm of Buffalo, and Michael Phillips of Ruiz Quintana ofNew York City, following a jury deliberation of only 2Vi hours last Thursday night. The state had dropped kidnapping and unlawful imprisonment charges after a pre-trial hearing before judge Theodore S. Kasler. The charges stemmed from an incident in which three Attica guards were forced out of the prison office in C Block by a mob armed with tear gas, fire hoses and burning rap. None of the officers named any of the three defendants as participants in the attack. Their only accusers were two former inmates George Kirk and Antonio Ramos. According to the jury foreperson, Elaine Britt of Tonawands, the jury entirely discounted the testimony of Mr. Ramos, a self-admitted informer in the prison for seven years, and felt that the testimony of Mr. Kirk was not sufficiently convincing. After the verdict, a group of people assembled in the courtroom cheered, applauded and chanted “thank you” to the jurors as they left. The three acquittals bring, the total number of freed Attica defendants to four. Dacajeweiah (John Hill) and Charley Joe Pernasalice have been convicted of murder and second degree attempted assault, respectively. - ["stdrewide” 5RLE • RECORD RUNNER im Th« New !

New York State Assembly leaders are reneging on an earlier to pledge consider decrminalizafion in this session, according to charges from New York NORML director Frank Fioramonte. Previously assured Until about two weeks ago, Mr. Fioramonte assorted Democratic leaders assured him that a decriminalization measure would be reported out of committee and probably passed by the Assembly. Similarly, Governor Carey’s office assured NORML that the governor would sign such a measure if passed. Assembly leaders said the measure will not be brought out on the floor, because they allegedly fear inaction in the Republican-controlled Senate, Mr. Fioramonte explained. Mr. Fioramonte lashed out at this, saying that the Democrats should have the courage of their convictions and let the Republicans bear the blame for inaction if the Senate should fail to act. “If it doesn’t get passed this session, they won’t do it next session either it’s an election year,” the NORML spokesperson noted. At the federal level, several decriminalization measures have been introduced in both houses. The Javits-Koch Bill, introduced originally by Senator Jacob Javits (R., N.Y.) and then-Senator Harold Hughes (D., Iowa), eliminates all penalties for personal possession of up to four ounces of marijuana. And the Marijuana Control Act of 1975, sponsored in the Senate by Mr. Javits, Alan Cranston (D., Calif.), Edward Brooke (R., Mass.), and Gaylord Nelson (D., Wisconsin), and in the House by a bi-partisan group of 18 congressmen, would establish a civil-citation system for minor marijuana violations.

University suffers Budget cuts force belt tightening by Howard Greenblatt Campus Editor As further reductions in the 1975-76 budget of the State University of New York (SUNY) hit this campus last week, a University Budget Committee composed of students, faculty, and administrators was formed to examine how the additional cuts can be absorbed. Out of an approximate $7.5 million reduction in the entire SUNY budget, $1,069,200 was slashed from the State University at Buffalo appropriation. This brings the total University cutback for this year to $2,835,000, or a total expenditure ceiling of $82,895,600, President Robert Ketter reported in a letter to student leaders, faculty and staff dated June 17, 1975. The new cuts, which Dr. Ketter said will “have a serious impact on this campus,” led to the formation of the University Budget Committee which began meeting last week. Double role The role of the new committee is twofold, explained Charles Fogel, Assistant Executive Vice President. The committee will have to recommend to the President ways in which the “target dollar increase” of approximately $ 1.6 million (as a result of an enrollment increase of 595 students for next year) “can most profitably be used to further the objectives of our institution.” Despite the “target increase,” another base level budget cut of $1,150,000 (and possibly even $750,000 more) will have to be made for next year, Mr. Fogel said. Additionally, the $1.6 million “cannot be relied upon” since it is only a “request,” but the $1,150,000 cut is “a sure thing,” he said. Strictly confidential Although the proceedings of the committee are kept “strictly confidential,” Mr. Fogel admitted that committee inembers have “identified areas’’ where the cuts will probably be implemented, and are considering ways in which possible income from target increases may be distributed. “Eventually the committee’s findings will be made public,” Mr. Fogel said. Student Association President Michele Smith and Graduate Student Association President Terry DiFilippo are the only two student members on the committee. “My priorities in future budgets are of course with undergraduate education and student services,” Ms. Smith said. While Ms. Smith does not wish “to see any rise in the faculty-student ratio,” she did admit a willingness to trim programs and services which are “graduate student oriented.” Specifically, Ms. Smith feels the libraries are primarily beneficial to graduate students. “Libraries aren’t sacred,” she asserted. Redundant administrative functions, central Xerox duplicating, and miscellaneous administrative expenses are among other areas where Ms. Smith feels cuts can be made. Mr. DiFilippo, representing about 4000 graduate students, was unavailable for comment. -NEW IN THIS AREA Lowest Prices in four years! - MONGOLIAN BARBEQUE (WEEKEND ONLY - SAT & SUN. 3:00 - Record Runner 10:00 pm) University Plaza A different sating txparisncs, choose your own moats Peter's Chop Suey Restaurant 3457 Genesee at Union — j H AIRSTYUNG j 634-1976 Joe s Theatre Barber j 10S5 Kanmora Ava.

Failure of health professionals to recognize the , sexual drive in the handicapped stem from our misconceptions about sex and our “cultural notions” of the handicapped, according to Ms. Kaiser. “We are all sold on the Madison Avenue notion of sex that it is only for the young, beautiful and energetic,” she said. A common stereotype of handicapped people is that they are “not quite human,” she explained. “We see tham as either not needing sex or over-sexed.” We are doing more harm to the handicapped by denying that they are normal human beings with normal drives and outlets, Ms. Kaiser emphasized. As a result, these people are often in greater need of a “loving, intimate relationship with the person of their choice,” she said. - Patients sexual needs Ms. Kaiser criticized the health profession for ignoring the sexual needs of their patients, citing a study done On quadra and parapalegics which found that the “overwhelming” majority would rather be able to have sexual intercourse than to walk.

Buffalo has facilities for sexual counseling, including the adolescent unit at Buffalo Childrens hospital where there is a lot of “sexual turmoil,” is an indication of the “mortar and bricks” we have built in our heads against sex, she said. Ms. Kaiser then showed a film of a handicapped couple engaging in oral sex. She pointed out that though the male was quadrapalegic and could not have an erection, both the male and female were stimulated by these activities. “How many orgasms would you say she had?” Ms. Kaiser asked the audience after the film. A reception will be held on Friday, June 27th for Rose Friedman, Secretary to Bob Henderson, Associate Director of Norton Hall, who is retiring as of July 1,1975. Her friendly smile and willingness to help is' admired by all who came into contact with her during her many years of service to students and staff alike. We all wish Rose a happy and healthy she will be gone, retirement but not forgotten. — “Between three and five,” someone responded. “And I have young men in my classes with two arms and legs who tell me they have not been able to give their wife or girlfriend one,” Ms. Kaiser said. Ongoing drive She then explained that intercourse is not the only form of sex necessary for stimulation. When an individual cannot engage in intercourse due to an illness or physical handicap, the sexual drive does not have to suffer. “Any part of our body can be trained to respond eroticall,” she said.

Hans Pittner, a student planning to reside in Goodyear during the summer sessions, deposited $400 worth of record albums, a television set and a short-wave radio in the trunk room at the end of the spring semester. Between that time and May 27, they all disappeared. The records were later located in another student’s room, soon after Campus Security and University Housing began investigating the theft. No charges were placed against the student. 1 The other items \ remain missing. —continued from page 1— .. downstairs, into Hayes basement and through a door.

Things can happen “The room is kept locked at all times,” he continued, “although things can happen. The janitor may have opened the door, left for a moment, and by the time he returned a student had gotten inside. If he closed the door then, the student could have simply stayed in the room until he was gone, and then left.” Mr. Cudek recalled a student last year who “by skill or by accident” fashioned himself an Ellicott Complex master floor key. The student was apprehended and prosecuted, but it could happen again, Mr. Cudek noted., Students with large articles such as bikes, stereos, television sets and boxes of books and records, can leave them in the trunk room by contacting the maintenance person in Goodyear Hall. The student is issued a card allowing him to deposit hii belongings from the end of the spring semester to the beginning of the first summer session. A tag with the owner’s name is put on each box or trunk, and a portion is ripped off and given to the student. When the student returns for the belongings, he is asked to show his I.D. card and his tag. Mistaken identity “That may be normal procedure, but that’s not what happened in this case,” said the student in whose room Mr. Pittner’s records were found. “My roommate mistook Hans’ box of records for mine, but the maintenance man didn’t check the tags or anything. The box he brought up wasn’t mine I saw that immediately but it was soaked with water. So I took them all out of the jackets and dried them so they wouldn’t warp.” The records apparently were wet before the box was placed in the — — room. Perry Shustack, Inter-Residence Council (IRC) Summer Coordinator, commented, “No record is kept of who puts what in and who takes what out. Despite what Mr. Cudek says. I’ve heard of the maintenance map unlokcing the door and leaving it unlocked while he is in his office, a little way down the hall.” Mr. Shustack said there is really no alternative for students wishing to store their belongings at the University. He added that in the past, when IRC had a store room, things also disappeared. ... — — — A.T.A.

The energy is harnessed by drilling wells in the producing areas, bringing the hot water to the surface and using it to turn electric generators. Contributing Editor In the wake of rapidly decreasing oil supplies, alternate methods of energy production are being explored. One of the most promising is geothermal energy which, according to Carel Otte, Vice President and Manager of Union Geothermal Division, has the capacity to save this country 700,000 barrels of oil per day. Geothermal energy is the natural heat of the earth transmitted to subsurface water which can be ' Stored heat The biggest problem is to find an area that has the right combination of stored heat in the subsurface rock and abundant quantities of steam or hot water to bring to the surface, Dr. Otte said. Presently about 50 countries are developing geothermal energy. The area where it is most abundant is the Pacific “Ring of fure,” extending from the tip of South America through North America, Alaska, Japan, the Philippines and Indonesia. In the United States the most promising areas .are found in the far West from Canada to the Mexican border. The United States’ biggest geothermal development is about 75 miles north of San Francisco. It is the largest facility in the world, generating 400,000 kilowats and it is expanding. Dr. Otte said it will eventually have a capacity of over 500.000 kilowats, enough to supply a city of TOMORROW NITE — 8:30 pm 500.000 people. Worth the price The cost of drilling a typical well is about $500,000, but Dr. Otte feels the cost is well worth it. If geothermal energy is used it will leave valuable oil and natural gas for more critical uses. "For instance, the 20 kilowatts of generating capacity that could be developed in the next two decades, would be equal) to almost 700,000 barrels of oil per day. Furthermore, this amount of power developed domestically would result in a foreign exchange savings of about $3.8 billion annually for the nation, Dr. Otte said. Dr. Otte noted that while they have been successful in overcoming technological problems in developing the resource, they have run into problems from government and special interest groups. Some of the problems concerned ownership of the resource, tax treatment and leasing of government lands. v \ “These barriers have slowed development of this resource at a time when the nation vitally needs new tapped and used to generate electricity, explained and successful alternate energy sources,” Dr. Otte Dr. Otte. “The mass of molten rock, or magma, argued. “If the United States is serious about its found below the earth’s crust is usually too deep for commitment to become more energy self-sufficient its energy to be useful, but in a few areas it works and protect itself against future international itself to the surface.

The plan, which replaces a quota of five men for every two women admitted, is not expected to bring an immediate change in the composition of the student body. But spokespersons for the Harvard office of administrations promised that “through more vigorous recruiting” of women applicants, the male-female ratio should drop to 3-2 “within a reasonable period.” Under the plan, admissions, financial aid and recruitment will be handled through a single admissions office. Women will apply to this office and, if accepted, will be admitted to both Harvard and Radcliffc College classes.

The controversy arose from and of events irreducible minimum of confusion in or secrecy the not froth prejudice in hearers itself. abortive quality of the investigation The contrast with the Rockefeller Commission is obvious. Even President Ford, while congratulating Rockefeller and saying the report could restore CIA credibility, went on to add that there can be no cover-qp because other investigations will follow, or because Ed Levi is a fine man. The president accepted the report while saying we should withhold judgment. Yet the report’s job was to facilitate judgment, and to convince the rest of us that its own norms of judgment were sound ones. President Ford assured us he did not want to be the a Monday morning quarterback. But that is just we assignment given to investigators. What would think of a judge who, when asked for a ruling, said it would be wrong to judge the doings of others? The reference to Attorney General Levi’s integrity was beside the point. The report should have had its own credibility, entirely aside from criminal proceedings. The Warren Commission did not prosecute Jack Ruby. It had a much wider task of public elucidation. The attorney general, in this case, may not prosecute individuals for any number ambiguity in the law, the statute of of reasons limitations, the death of participants in illegal - activities (which go back twenty years, the president ;tells us), the use of “executive privilege” to protect National Security Council members. The failure to prosecute now does not assure us that the CIA has either the moral law or the stayed within the law federal statutes. Assuring us of that was the job of the Rockefeller Commission, and by the president’s own statement, the commission failed. Why the failure? Was it the fault of Rockefeller, of staff members; a goof in timing, Ford, of or publicity, organization? None of these things. The — .

Evil is the fact of total need. The base evil of Dr Ketter’s mind is that it must depend upon our taking its authority. Convention, anyway, in these circles of university bureaucrats and campus security police is a proper mode, and seldom rises to any height above general conventionality, having its roots in what other men think. This vital phase of rational genius came as it met straight on the threat of an overwhelming expansion of consciousness that followed the breakthrough in the mid-Sixties on all levels. The inspiration of Reason was to close off consciousness in an area that was civilized, white, superior in culture, practical and Christian (or at least rational in religion). The agreement of rational men was to quarantine the fever of thought. Rationalism erected a taboo of social shame that still lasts against the story of the aversions mingle. the So one Dr. Ketter defines the essence of the soul, against the dream and inner life of men the prejudices were might by over, we be the world that be heard protected, that rationalist persuasion lost.

What was desired was a convincing assurance that the CIA has not been out of control and engaged in shabby activities. That assurance will never be forthcoming, because it has been out of control and engaged in morally shabby operations for some time. The CIA has inculcated in its members and leaders a feeling that they are above the law; that anything they do for what they conceive to be the national interest is justifiable in those terms alone; lied to and that all outsiders even officials, must be power their is an to check tricked; that any attempt be foiled and must attack on the country’s security like any other enemy attack. The name of the CIA is never going to be cleared. The more we learn about it, the more dependable it appears. Its directors have lied to Congress. Its members have routinely broken the law inside the agency, and some have felt commissioned to do so even after they leave the firm. Its defenders fall back on every sleazy argument available. The only cleansing thorough enough, the only offenses, is one proportionate the the agency’s abolition. The CIA is a secret empire with more resources for protecting itself than for protecting the country. Intelligence work goes on in many bureaus where it can still be controlled.

Much of Mutrux's script has the air of an improvisation worked out by illiterate eighth-grade hoods in a required speech class. Cameraman William A. Fraker and his director go to the opposite extreme with their over-choreographed car crashes and shoot-outs. Speeding away from a grocery store he is accused of having robbed, Bobby destroys Rose's car, which topples over, their bodies bouncing wildly around inside it, in agonizing slow motion. Mutrux's method of adding new life to this embarrassing cliche involves intercutting speeded-up footage of local kids on skate-boards with closeups of the bloody, utterly devastated faces of the two accident victims while "Do the Locomotion" continues to blare from the irrepressible car radio. The joke, or whatever it is, is really rotten but Mutrux still manages to surpass himself in the final sequence, when Bobby's inevitable downfall (again, of course, filmed in slow motion) is accompanied by Elton John's "Benny and the Jets," audience applause and all. — — Must a film about bored, awkward young people inevitably be ineloquent and boring? "No!" cries Truffaut every time The 400 Blows is rerun; "No!" insists Lindsay Anderson in If...; and Paul Lucas' American Graffiti calls out just as insistently,/if a little less powerfully, that the correlation between theme and development need not always be as close as it is in Aloha, Bobby and Rose. But ineffective parody is always a lot easier to produce than honest examination as well as a lot more easily palatable to certain movie producers and audiences and the ever-popular legend of the causeless rebel has found yet another uninspired interpreter in Aloha's writer-director Floyd Mutrux. Mutrux's little morality tale deals with an auto mechanic named Bobby whose shiny, blood-red '68 Camaro can't quite compensate for all the bad breaks which make up the ill-fitting mosaic of his life, and Rose, a young unwed mother whose most prized possessions, a pair of tickets to Hawaii, were traded in for a tricycle when she appeared as a walking pizza on Let's Make a Deal. They team up accidentally after he repairs her Volkswagen and what begins as an innocent evening of ice-skating and making out in her car leads to murder, a bloody smash-up, escape, continual hysteria on Rose's part, and a climax that is as totally predictable as the rest of the plot is nonsensical. — — — Makes no sense The physical and emotional violence doesn't mean either Bobby tries to explain it away as a joke, or anything it's presented as comic relief, or else it's simply too absurd to provoke any reaction other than laughter and the link which the director attempts to establish between the constantly recurring motifs of blood, AM rock music, and cars cruising up and down Sunset Strip doesn't hold together when subjected to any finer tool than Bobby's own muddled mind. Every ad for Aloha, Bobby and Rose reminds us of star Paul LeMat's excellent film debut as John Milner, the high school dropout who didn't quite fit into American Graffiti's world of graduations and senior proms, and Mutrux has further tried to capitalize on his leading man's past success by making Bobby a slightly older, lonelier, but still immediately recognizable Milner. This might not have been such a bad idea Big John's character was, after all, one of the highlights of the far superior earlier film, and the post-teenage loner-looking-for-love is a type which LeMat handles well had Mutrux remembered to provide the actor with a few lines of intelligent dialogue. - - r ■ — — Hey man, y'know As it is, though, his conversation with co-star Dianne Hull is strictly of the "Hey, you wanna you wanna get in the back seat?" variety; no coherent sentences can come out of his mouth (and few from hers) without five minutes of preparatory "Hey, man, uh, y'know"'s and an equal amount ... Conventional soundtrack The steady undercurrent of music, by the way, punctuated occasionally by the disc jockey's impromptu comments on the action, is another direct steal from LeMat's earlier film. But while American Graffiti's soundtrack not only set the time and the mood perfectly, but became a crucial element in the characterizations, providing its listeners with both highly personal escape hatches and, through Wolfman Jack, a group mythology, the songs which back up Aloha's big moments seem to be no more pertinent than a conventional soundtrack or even the six o'clock news. It is as nearly impossible to imagine a non-musical American Graffiti as it is to figure out the significance of the music Mutrux chose for Aloha, Bobby and Rose. The theme of Aloha (now at the Kensington Theater) has been filmed before, and will undoubtedly be attempted many more times; this is just not among the better treatments. As Rose's mother, reminiscing about her dead husband, advises; "Oh yeah, honey, the good ones don't come along every day but when they do ..." When they do, it will presumably be through no fault of Floyd Mutrux's. — �ly not spirit Ramblin' Jack Elliott Adam Mitchell Michael Cooney here Everett Lilly, of the bluegrass came to Toronto's Mariposa Folk first time last weekend, and when Sunday morning he said it all.

Jaws is representative of the disaster film genre in that the profit motive is more highly regarded than the artistic one. It does have the edge over such films as Earthquake and Towering Inferno because those films describe their tragedies in general, impersonal and rather panoramic terms. Jaws' strength is that its disaster is of a highly personal nature and its subject matter is far more realistic than that of the other disaster films released this year Jaws, which will be showing at the Boulevard and Holiday Theaters for about 12 weeks, is adequate entertainment and I emphasize the world "entertainment." It is definitely a suspensful and gruesome film, but I am perplexed by the many filmmakers today whose plenary stress is on creating the most sensational and horrifying film they can, while they totally ignore their medium's potantial as a vehicle for serious artistic expression. — U.B.

Such a phenomenon is Inspector Clouseau of the Surete, as portrayed by Peter Sellers in Blake Edwards' The Return of the Pink Panther. In Clouseau's presence, windows shatter, light bulbs pop out of lamps, revolving doors conspire to separate him from his luggage, glue obstinately fills in the space between him and a chair seat. Even normally docile walls and doors do violence to this scrubbily mustached man in an off-the-rack trench coat, his head topped by a tweedy variant of Chico Marx's pointed hat. — — The missing nose mystery Clouseau arouses in other people an ill-place disbelief in his credibility. Chief Inspector Dreyfus (Herbert Lorn) should know that, if his gun-shaped cigarette lighter and Clouseau are in his office at the same time, Dreyfus' nose is not long for this world. Clouseau's Oriental servant uses surprise attacks on his employer to sharpen the Inspector's eye for danger. Still, even he is taken aback when Clouseau hands him a lit bomb and later remarks that "your little yellow skin was almost blown off." And not the least of Clouseau's effects on people is what he does to movie audiences, whose reactions range from amusement to total hysterics. If Sellers has been out of sight for a spell, it's his material that's been weighting him down; like any actor, he can rise just so far above it. In Return, he reestablishes himself as a major screen comedian, one who can heighten the humor in script or situation but who needn't rely solely on them to be damnably funny. - Our Weekly Reader Meta-Talk by Gerald I. Nierenberg and Henry H. Calero, Poocet Books (paper). I once read a book hardly anyone else knows about called The History of the United States. It was written not long ago by Bill Hutton, a diamond-bright madman who used to own a bar in downtown Buffalo. It is barely a hundred pages tong (and there are a lot of pictures) and it has the distinction of having been printed in Toronto, but it is undoubtedly the best history of this country I have ever read. And the mostjcomplete. I'm sure it's out of print now. Bill Hutton is the Kilgore Trout of American historiography. He has about six fans. Nobody knows where he lives. Expectedly, several of the chapters in The History of the UnitedStates are about the American West. In one of them Hutton pictures Pavy Crockett and Walt Disney talking things over in the bar at a Howard Johnson's somewhere in the midwest. You see, Hutton's most striking historical principle is that he imagines all sorts of people important to this country's image of itself existing all together, at one time, in a place just slightly outside the world as we know it. Whether they are real or not or whether they lived at the same time doesn't matter. Only what is said by one famous person to another in this meta-historical nevernevertand really matters. It makes a good book. Meta-Talk, written by Gerald I. Nierenberg and Henry H. Calero and just released as a paperback by Pocket Books, is a bad book, but it reminds me of Hutton's in one important way: well-known thinkers, writers, and humorists, some of them fictional, are introduced at every conceivable chance (the list of notables runs to 50 or more). They bump heads and exchange clues out of time and out of space, usually quite apart from the authors' the monotonous buzz and hum about "meta-talk" hidden meaning behind ordinary conversation. Oscar Wilde, Lewis Carroll, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Oliver Hardy, Sigmund Freud, Humpty Dumpty and Aristotle are made to suddenly exist, all together and atxrne time, in'the unlikely world of this hysterically eclectic book. When the authors, a couple of lecture-tour hustlers on the executive circuit, are not calling in heavies to do their talking for them, they are explaining in nearly unreadable fashion what it is we are saying. (Actually, their "exhaustive" lists of phrases and their corresponding meanings can be reduced to a simple axiom: whenever you say something, you mean the opposite.) The underlying purpose of the book, to go on, has all the impact of someone rushing up to you and declaring that he can, beyond the shadow of a doubt, prove that wheels are round. For instance, Nierenberg and Calero offer the world this startling in everyday conversation is startling. That brings me to the "hidden meaning" behind Meta-Talk, the book itself: you must understand that it is the hybrid child of two men who have apparently made a great deal of money talking to business executives about language. There are starbursts of stories and quotations from famous people (and even a few good summaries of previous scholarship by Freud, Aristotle, Bentham and others), but what emerges from these flashes of verbal light is not a powerful or insirfitful book, but absolutely the product of a decidedly dim book Calero, and no matter what fancy Nierenberg company "they keep. They are two zoot-suited salesmen who stumbled leeringly into the fine light of Hutton's meta-historical underworld ("previous scholarship," as they say in the Forward), spiral — - — jnd and Bic pens stiff and steady.

The last chapter, blithely titled i Life, Talk With Everybody," says in i« various skills and techniques that discussed, it may be possible for you ir risk, to get yourself into more of a if The vowel murders In A Shot in the Dark Clouseau declared war on consonants, declaiming at one point, "She shot him in a rit of fealous gage!" Here, he switches his assault to vowels, advising a street musician that he and his "minkey" cannot perform without a "lissence." In trying to clarify "minkey" and "lissence," Clouseau remains oblivious to a bank robbery going on right behind him. Clouseau's manner dictates total awareness and command of everything around him, but control of his own tongue escapes him. Maybe it's because the concept of Clouseau being able to handle anything whatsoever is so absurd that inanimate objects seize every opportunity to challenge it. There are two parallel movies operating in Return: a slapstick comedy and a frothy "caper" adventure story taken from an unedited first draft script. They're tied together by the theft of the world's largest diamond, the Pink Panther; Sir Charles Lytton (Christopher Plummer), who stole it in the original Pink Panther, again goes under the inevitable cloud of suspicion; apparently, everyone else involved with the "seriotat" portion of Return was befogged as well. Plummer's smooth, charming performance is the only thing that keeps it from descending to me slipshod smugness of It Takes A Thief, as well as a textbook example of wasted talent. The heavy hand I suppose the rationale for this "tragedy relief," aside from its necessity to relate Return to the earlier films in the series, is in Edwards' idea of providing balance to Sellers' slapstick. Even in the segments where Sellers holds sway, there's an irritating air of contrivance to some of the gags which is directly traceable to Edwards. (His belaboring of Sellers' mispronunciations, a scream when left alone, ruins several potential good laughs.) The balance that exists is between inspiration and mediocrity, a poor state of affairs. Film comedy is in robust shape at the moment, with the presence of Woody Allen (with his new Love and Death sounding very promising), Mel Brooks and Louis deFunes and Gerard Oury (star and director, respectively, of the joyous The Mad Adventures of "Rabbi" Jacob.) Although Blake Edvyards is awfully far from reincarnating Mack Sennett, Peter Sellers’, rejuvenation places him securely in their company. I could see his "minkey business" producing more than a few "rits of laughter." Prodigal Sun 'ta-talk for: "Pay no attention to that curtain.

Side one was recorded live in New Orleans, hot, spontaneous and "captured as it came down presented to you honestly, without the aid of studio gimmicks." It sounds like Grand Funk Railroad on Robitussin.

Lots of talking to the audience (you know, 'Boogie chillunl' and all), and enthusiastic applause, all set to the music of a drummer who sounds like an endless tape loop. Frank Beard was quoted in a recent press release as saying, "Tell the young drummers of the world that the shuffle, the cut I only know three beats shuffle, and the monkey beat." No shit. Bassist Dusty Hill, on the other hand, is real talented he does a good job of playing exactly the same relentless riffs as guitarist Gibbons. To quote the same press release, "Dusty uses his booming bass figures to forge the mpsical path, adding the all-important rhythm lines that create an overall sound that other trios are unable to muster."

Emerson did some very good work with his synthesizers (considering this was not one of their better albums), but he was still in his formative stage in relation to the group, resulting in rather mediocre output. , Tomita's album, however, is a must for almost anyone. All the cuts are superb, and you surely will find some favorites. "The Old Castle" is incredible, using soft melodies and harmonies to create an airy feeling. The music can surround the listener in a dreamy haze, build up to an excruciating peak, and then abruptly drop, catching him on his way down in a cloud of harmonies. This certainly is a unique feature for this type of music. The constant exchange of ideas that runs through the music never fails to grasp the attention of the listener's mind. The entire album interweaves softly, only to erupt into a pulsating beat, harnessing the full strength of the instrument involved. Yes, you can actually consider synthesizers as instruments on this album, for Tomita uses them as flexibly as any instrument and as beautifully developed. -Susan Wos The Spec FESTIVAL EAST PRESEISTS WED., JULY 16th—8 P.M. a shuffle tribute to a notorious gambling/pleasure place located on the farthest point of a pier off --"—I |SUPERRUNT T-Shirt!

TO MIAMI 6WW^SOIO- M, Minorities and academics During this semester, a number of articles appeared in our University newspaper, The Spectrum, concerning the plight of minorities in academics, with specific attention to Engineering. Mathematics, in part a support field to Engineering, Biology, Physics and Chemistry, is another area possessing this illness. I wish to partially enlighten the University community on this problem, and its solution, in part, as exemplified by the performance of the State University at Buffalo. In an elementary Physics course, we are asked to neglect friction, when considering the acceleration of a particle falling from rest. Similarly, during public schooling, the minority student must ignore intense social and psychological pressures, as well as poor schooling. Should this friction be surpassed, it has been traditionally difficult for that student to obtain a good and sympathetic college education. Graduate school in mathematics epitomizes these hardships; should predominantly blind earn a PhD, his consequence, it however, persevere with the and/or racist professors and ability is still suspect. Of one has been traditionally near-impossible to obtain a university research position in mathematics. David Blackwell, the one black member of the National Academy of Science, is the Jackie Robinson of Mathematics, and yet he remains an “oddity” to those mathematicians who are aware that he is black. For each 1000 PhD mathematicians in the country, less than five are black, American Indian, Puerto Rican or Mexican American. Needless to say, each of these has had to be incredibly lucky, as well as a comparative prodigy in intellectual achievement. All except 14 are employed in institutions where the teaching load (averaging 13 hours a week, nearly double the State University at Buffalo assignments) and committee work are extremely prohibitive of research opportunity. All of these 14 have found themselves besieged with requests to join or head committees in their research institutions, for the demand of minority input is deemed important, while the supply qf minorities is limited. To my knowledge, there are, consequently, only seven tenured minority mathematicians in our major United States universities, one Mexican American, one Native American and five blacks. For the years 1972 thru 1974, the State University at Buffalo Mathematics Department managed to have two minorities on its staff. However, Dr. Thomas Storer, a Navajo, left his Full Professorship post here for a lesser position at another university in June 1974 partially because of attacks on his person and ability by some of his colleagues. University President Robert Ketter recently denied tenuring of Scott Williams (of African and Algonquin heritage), who is presently the only minority member of the entire Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics. Why was Dr. Williams denied tenure? Perhaps it was due to a lack of university community service. However, Dr. Williams has served on as six committees at one time, while most assistant professors in Mathematics participate on two or three committees which rarely meet. To the Editor Perhaps it was due to a lack of teaching ability. This seems unlikely since Dr. Williams has been regarded by many students and some faculty as one of the best teachers in the Mathematics Department. He has often taught an extra course (and sometimes two) outside of his normal semester’s teaching assignment; moreover, he has been twice assigned a graduate course termed as “difficult” by his chairman even though his course was outside of Dr. Williams’ area of research interests. research and ability It must be After receiving and opening my bill for Summer School, I became incensed at the thought of having to pay another $10.90 for student activity and college fees for a meager seven-week session. After all, the fees for a Fall or Spring semester total “only” $40.00, and that’s for almost three times the amount of education. If we have to pay these fees, let’s open the Ketterpillar on rainy days and or provide more hours of use in Clark Gym. If not, let’s have a student referendum and get rid of these fees once and for all. accomplishment . . although leading specialists in his general area of work have called his progress, while employed at the University, “meteoric” in and have acceleration and rising stated that he is the second most promising young mathematician in his specific area. Nevertheless, his research is regarded as not warranting tenure by . local mathematicians. Even though it is generally recognized that the presence of a minority on faculty has a definite positive effect on minority undergraduate and graduate -students, Dr. Williams has been denied tenure for failing to produce enough in the areas of university service, teaching, and research, and because he works in the wrong field of mathematics. For Dr. Williams, luck has just run out at this University. However, job possibilities are bright, for Paul E. Bestehoun many Jaws he could pursue any of the following: 1) leave mathematics and become wrought-iron smith; of 2) find one the aforementioned research-prohibitive jobs; 3) change his area of research and produce brilliant mathematics, as desired by some other university; 4) do a repeat of his five years here at another institution. The State University at Buffalo Mathematics Department will probably gain considerable prestige with the long line of mathematicians replacing Dr. Williams. Hopefully, its students will benefit from this prestige. If any of these replacements are black, Mexican American, Puerto Rican, or Native American, then hopefully, the university community can benefit from their expectedly temporary services. For with Dr. Williams as a chairman of its departmental Affirmative Action Committee (until Jnwe 1976), the Department of Mathematics can be an Equal Opportunity Employer and will continue to seek “qualified” minority and women applicants. It has been difficult for me to write this letter, lor I am Scott Williams and objectivity in such matters is always suspect; however, I have been schooled by the continuing “usual experience” of being a black in America, and I have developed a slight detachment in order to survive these experiences. 4-- "jf* • ■ To the Editor. of summer The cost ks' CD»915- R3S-1-0»»C-, Scott Warner Williams Assistant Professor of Mathematics of New York at Buffalo State University Friday, 27 June 1975 The Spectrum Page thirteen . . , �s t mo »«»lv u p<?

But if you must smoke, use filters. That’s the conclusion of Irwin D.J. Bross, a Rosewell Park Memorial Institute researcher, who suggests that heavy smokers that can’t give up smoking entirely can cut the risk of heart disease by switching to filter cigarettes. “Heart diseases are major killers and the savings in lives from effective filtration could be substantial,” he said. Dr. Bross presented his findings at the World Conference on Smoking and Health, held last month in New York City. Dr. Bross based his findings on the tentative results of a survey of 99 autopsies; 58 on persons who only smoked non-filter cigarettes and 41 on persons who switched to filters. The autopsies, Dr. Bross asserted, showed considerably less heart disorders in the people who had switched to filters. Scientists have known since 1968 that filters cut the risk of lung cancer, but this is the first study linking filters to reduced heart disease. Noting the decline in the heart attack death rate, Dr. Bross pointed out that massive switching from non-filter to filter cigarettes by smokers over the past few decades may be responsible for the reduced mortality rate. While Dr. Bross admitted that not smoking at all HAIRCUTS phu & Ben Nanci & is the best way to decrease the risk of lung cancer and heart disease, he felt that the anti-smoking campaigns urging people to “stop cold” are simply ineffective. “Many anti-smoking efforts were based on the mistaken notion that you can change deeply ingrained human habits by preaching at people,” he observed. “Putting effective filters on cigarettes is a quiet kind of action that is in sharp contrast with noisy The educational anti-smoking propaganda. campaigns which might have had a purpose 20 years ago in making the public aware of the health hazards of tobacco have long since outlived their usefulness,” he added. Dr. Bross also felt these campaigns might .be counterproductive in making the public believe that something is being done about the health hazard. Despite extensive anti-smoking campaigns, Dr. Bross pointed out that the total number of deaths and illnesses from smoking is larger today than in the 1950’s, when the risks first began to be publicized.

Ertell, Acting Vice President for Academic Affairs, has resigned from that position due to poor health. Robert S. Fisk, Professor in the Faculty of Educational Studies, will replace Dr. Ertell until a permanent vice president is found. SA plans several new projects for the year A new student pharmacy, a discount public transportation program and major revisions in the housing contract and advisory services are just some of the things the Student Association (SA) has planned for the 1975-76 academic year. A student pharmacy will “most be definitely” opening up September 1st in Michael Hall, according to SA Vice President Arthur Lalande. The pharmacy will sell prescription drugs to students “possibly at a discount,” according to Mr. Lalonde if local private pharmacists are not jepordized. He reports that so far the Erie County Pharmaceutical Society (made up of local private pharmacists) has not complained. The idea of opening a student pharmacy is not new. It was first proposed eight years ago but no one at the time was willing to act on it and the “topic was broached” said Mr. Lalonde. Metro discount A student discount rate for public transportation on the Metro buses is being investigated, although it could involve paying the company a yearly grant of $13 thousand from student mandatory activity fees, Mr. Lalonde continued. If this program goes through, students will’ have an “economical” and “efficient” way of traveling in addition to a way of alleviating the parking problem, Mr. Lalonde explained. SA also plans to question the legality of the housing contract and, if necessary, court action will be taken, according to SA Director of Student Activities Steve Schwartz. One provision SA will try to eliminate is “the right of housing to enter a students room anytime.” Mr. Schwartz is also working Inter-Residence Council with (IRC) President David Brownstein to change the housing contract to a lease so that students can be protected under certain Tenant’s Rights Laws. Alumni advisors A new career advisement service is tentatively planned that would involve recruiting Alumni Association members who have experienced the “outside world” to advise graduating students about career opportunities. “We have academic advisement but no real Mr. career advisement, Lalonde observed. He was confident the Alumni Association would volunteer its services. SA also plans to survey the academic advisement present services to see how they could be improved, said SA President Michele Smiths Ms. Smith added that the goal of SA would be to avoid the recurrence of certain “crises” that faced the student body this year; administration’s namely, the refusal to approve fund requests and the problem raised over the funding of athletics. The publication of SCATE, “a place to crash” directory and a new travel agency are some of the other SA events scheduled for this fall. » AO INFORMATION AOS MAY be placed in The Spectrum office weekdays II a.m.-4 p.m. The deadline for Friday's paper Is Tuesday at 4 p.m. THE OFFICE Is located In 355 Norton Hall, SUNY/Buffalo, 3435 Main Street, Buffalo, New York 14214.

In fact, Student Association (SA) Speakers Bureau Chairman Rob Cohen has purposely avoided bringing any so-called, expensive “big names” to campus next fall.

No shows One problem Mr. Morrow often encountered was frequent of speakers, cancellations including unprecedented an double cancellation by Clifford m The Student Association (SA) is suing the SUNY system, in an attempt to prove that the Rules For Maintenance of Public Order violate the First Amendment Rights of students. University administration officials invoked these rules in suspending five students following the April 25 demonstration at Hayes Hall. “During the demonstration, Dr. Kettcr acted totally within the this is riot a personal attack,” explained SA scope of his authority Director of Student Activities Steve Schwartz. “We are, however, questioning the power itself.” The Student Association of the State University (SASU) voted this weekend to join the suit at its membership meeting in Oneonta, New York. The administration’s chief complaint was the students’ “refusal to leave any building or facility after being required to do so by an authorized administrative officer ...” “This rule, in my opinion, as well as the opinion of many lawyers, violates the First Amendment Rights of students,” Mr. Schwartz told the SASU delegates. In effect, he contended, the rule cancels out the first amendment right to peacefully assemble. “This says you have to leave just because an administration official tells you to no explanation necessary. And it’s enough to get you suspended if you don’t,” he explained. The resolution, approved by a unanimous vote of the SASU delegates, added SASU’s name to the list of plaintiffs in the suit, although it provided no financial support. “We did not request this, considering SASU’s financial crisis,” explained SA President Michele Smith. The resolution urged other schools to join the suit and to contribute financially, however. Schools which immediately agreed to do so were the State Universities at Binghamton, Stony Brook and Farmingdale Agricultural and Technical College. The delegates from Binghamton and Stony Brook pledged $500 each from their student governments, Farmingdale $250, toward defraying the expected legal expenses of about $2000. Mr. Schwartz explained that a show-cause hearing will take place in mid-August during which reasons for the suit will be presented to the court. “If we win that, the students will be reinstated until the trial comes up; and by that time, most of the suspensions will probably have expired,” he said. “However, the big point is the law itself.” — — —Santos Robert Cohen Irving. There is no way to avoid this problem, said Mr. Cohen, as speakers may back out six hours before they are scheduled to appear. In that event, Mr. Cohen will warn other schools that the individual, or his agent, is not trustworthy. Mr. Cohen has worked hard to put together an adequate program for the fall semester, but he plans are always subject to change. “There are still plenty of ideas left to be explored,” he said. admits that Racial violence stirs up activity and criticism by Rosalie Zuckerman Bill Gater, executive director of BUILD Unity, Independence, Liberty, (Build Dignity), organized in 1967 to deal with problems facing black communities in the inner city, accused the city of being “negligent.” Mr. Gator said he had urged Mayor Makowski to get the city involved in calming tensions in the Kensington area at a meeting during the Memorial Day SpecialFeatures Editor Recent outbreaks of racial violence in "Kensington area in past weeks stabbings at the Seneca including 13, and School June Vocational confrontations between white and black youths at several area schools, have stirred a flurry of activity and criticism about how best to deal with the current conflicts and head off possible violence in the summer months ahead. Mayor Stanley Makowski has called in the Buffalo Youth Board, Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) and the Human Relations Committee to alleviate tension in the area. A full time staff from the Buffalo Youth Board has been assigned to the the weekend. Both Mr. Acker and Mr. Gater feel the city is treating a potentially “explosive situation” too lightly and, Mr. Gater said, “things will have to get way out of hand” before the city finally decides to act. Mr. Price feels the “city is not doing a good job,” partly because of a lack of funding and the failure of the federal government in treating urban problems as a priority. “The federal government will give $25 million to the Amherst Sewer Project, but they will not give more money to the Buffalo Youth Projects,” he said. community to provide youth counseling services and recreational programs.

Curry, “Ongoing programs are being coordinated by community and governmental agencies to reduce tensions,” Mr. Curry said, adding that the goal of these agencies will be to dispel rumors on “both sides” so that Buffalo can be maintained as a “city of goo(J neighbors.” However, leaders of the NAACP, BUILD and Councilman Bill Price have expressed dissatisfaction over the way the city is dealing with the tensions in the Kensington area. “They are moving like snails,” said Dan Acker, a spokesperson for the NAACP. Not enough action is being taken by the city to identify of arrest “culprits” responsible for these activities, according to Mr. Acker. Neither the Mayor or the police has called in the FBI, the State Department or state agencies to investigate tension in the Kensington area, Mr. Acker pointed out. This same charge was made by the Buffalo Courier Express in an editorial June 15. Police criticized police, particularly Buffalo from Precinct 16, have been under heavy criticism from the NAACP and BUILD for their handling of recent incidents in the Kensington area. Mr. Acker and Mr. Cater described the police as being “emerged in racism” and non-reccptive to reported assaults in the area. Mr. Price also said he was dissatisfied with the police, but would not comment any further. Precinct 16 Captain Joseph DiVincenzo denied these charges, saying that although BUILD and the NAACP “are doing all they could to preserve the dignity of their race, they are ill advised.” Mr. DiVincenzo claims his precinct is doing all it can with —continued on page 2— �Racial violence... the resources it has and that his police officers would never discriminate on the basis of race. Guy Outlaw, principal of School 82, said police have done an “excellent job” in patrolling the school. The underlying cause of the tension in the Kensington area is still being disputed. The Buffalo Evening News, Courier Express, BUILD and NAACP have reported that long term racial problems in the Kensington area are the immediate cause. But city officials disagree. Mr. Price feels it is due to kids being “locked” into economically deprived sections of Buffalo, suffering from “massive” unemployment, with no outlet to “relieve the tensions.” Rev. Curry feels that it is more of an economic or social problem, and said poverty in the city affects people’s attitudes towards themselves and towards the government, often causing insecurity and unrest.

The bill, H.R. 50, “The Equal Opportunity and FulJ Employment Act,” commonly referred to as the Hawkins’ Bill, is being sponsored by Representatives Augustus Hawkins (D., Calif.) and Henry Reuss (D., Wise.), and is co-sponsored by 85 representatives, including Buffalo’s 37th Dist.). Henry Nowak (D., N.Y. The newly formed Buffalo group, the Hawkins Bill Support Committee (Full Employment Act) has produced a summary of the bill, including a section outlining their proposals for strengthening amendments. — 14.7 percent! • According to the U.S. Labor Department, Buffalo’s unemployment reached 14.7 percent in March, ranking fourth highest in the nation. The Hawkins Bill Support Committee estimates that real unemployment in Buffalo has now reached 20 percent, putting Buffalo in the number two spot. While officials once again predict an “upturn” in the economy, the Labor Department notes that 22 new cities and towns have been added to the “substantial unemployment” list (those reporting over 6 percent) from March to April. Official figures put the national unemployment between 8 and 9 percent, leaving idle over 7.5 million productive Americans. Additionally, the local committee points out that youth, minorities, and women have been hardest hit, since many people in these categories have the least seniority and are laid off first. Officially, 22 percent of all youth are unemployed, with almost 42 percent of black and minority youth out of work. However, these figures do not include first-time job seekers, or those workers who have been out of work so long that they have run out of unemployment benefits and are no longer counted in the statistics. Equal opportunity given The bill provides all adult Americans able and willing to work with the “right to equal opportunity for useful paid employment at fair rates of compensation,” and holds the federal government responsible for enforcement. Furthermore, any person deprived of the rights enumerated in the act will be entitled to bring court action Storwide sale See page 3 SOLE be reduced to a minimum. Job commission national Commission for Full Additionally, a Employment Policy Studies would be created to conduct longer range studies of the immediate and anticipated changes in programs and needs, in order to maintain genuine full employment without inflation. While one of the most progressive bills ever to be presented in the House, the local support committee has offered some proposals that they feel would strengthen it. In its present form, the bill does nothing to meet the immediate crisis. The Hawkins bill hopes its program will be functioning in five years, which does little for those millions of Americans who are in poverty and desperation today. The support committee feels that the immediate creation of millions of jobs is possible and should be included in the final form. The support group also feels that special efforts must be made to employ youth and minorities since they are hardest hit by the current recession, and that guarantees be made “against all forms of discrimination” on the grounds of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, age or political belief, in the placing of people. Unions guaranteed All job programs should provide wages at the prevailing rates or trade union rates, which even is higher, the support group maintains, since lower rates would undermine the livable wages that many have fought ha'rd for over the years. Also, jobs should be “meaningful,” the support committee contends, rather than of a “temporary make-work nature,” so that badly needed products and services will be- produced, while those working will gain important job skills and knowledge.

Finally, the bill’s local supporters feel that youth, minorities, and women should be fully represented at every level of planning and administration, with citizens elected from each community. This would give people additional training and would instill the feeling that the American people were finally beginning to participate in the life of the country. Spokesperson for the Hawkins Bill Support Committee, Barbara Mucyn, said that the bill would pass only if the people show “tremendous support for it, and apply pressure on Congress.” She said “support and endorsement for the concept of the bill,” and for her groups’ suggested amendments has already come from the United Steelworkers of America, District No. 4, Operation PUSH, and the Coalition for Health and Welfare. Additionally, the support group is working closely with Rep. Nowak and his assistant in Washington, and also received the support of the recent State labor hearing held in Buffalo. That body invited the support committee “to come to Washington to lobby for the bill,” explains Ms. Mucyn. Attempts are being made to have a hearing in Buffalo, she adds, where the general public can raise questions and voice their opinions.

Other delegates still opposed it, however, and several more voted against it because, as one delegate said, “We resent shove trying someone to something down our throats.” Following the third and final defeat, Chris Sprowl of Old Westbury introduced a new proposal to be voted upon at the next SASU conference in early fall. It calls for a “floating ratio” the proposal included Paul Curtin and David Westgate of Geneseo and Stanley Adler of the School of Optometry.

The new cuts will the SUNY legislative appropriation achieved by general expenditure reductions of $7.5 million, and by increasing University-generated revenues by $18 in be million. The $7.5- million general reductions will be distributed throughout the SUNY system and the individual campuses will have to take steps to compensate. These steps include leaving some positions unfilled and cutting back on such administrative costs as telephones, travel and maintenance. Curtailment of planned expansion at the State University College at Old Westbury and Empire State College are envisioned. The opening of the School of Podiatry at Stony Brook, slated to get underway this fall, will also have to be deferred. The new cutbacks should only affect the spending areas which were left alone by the legislature’s earlier decision not to grant all of SUNY’s reguested budget increases for next year, said Todd Rubinstein, Communications Director for Student Association of the State University (SASU). The other $18 million will be raised from University-generated revenues. It is anticipated that $5 million will be available from greater income from 1974-75 tuitions. $11 million will be raised from recovery of excess funds from bond issues, and $2 million from a reduction in the amount needed for bond debt service. Increased hospital revenue and interest on rent reserve funds will also be a source of income. In response to these and other recent budget cutbacks, SUNY has agreed to undertake a two-year study of its priorities and programs. Instead of accepting across-the-board cutbacks, the new University Commission on Purposes and Priorities will operate “with an eye toward closing down programs more intelligently,” Mr. Rubinstein reported.

But seriously . Treading on the heels of a Speakers Bureau Chairman who was constantly embroiled in controversy, this year's Chairman, Rob Cohen, has set about to prepare a well-rounded, stimulating program with as much input from other students as he can garner. In addition to organizing a select committee whose business is specifically to discuss and suggest potential speakers, Mr. Cohen has attempted to make his smaller budget go a longer Way by purposely avoiding the expensive, .big name personalities. Instead, he has decided to contract lower priced speakers, many of whom have more intellectual and less entertainment appeal, and has saved the bigger, names for special occasions. He has also made arrangements with several special interest groups on campus to help them finance speakers who might not normally draw the greatest number of people and he is planning to invite political candidates who will appear free of charge. The Speakers Bureau is hot by nature a political organization. Its sole purpose is to provide the University with a wide variety of interesting or unusual speakers who might not otherwise be accessible to students outside this environment. In the past, the Speakers Bureau has been one of the most visible, and therefore successful, organizations on campus. But unfortunately,-it has often been too visible due to a number of public.and personal battles that often detracted from other important Student Association business and that could have been avoided by more discreet management. Mr. Cohen seems to understand these past errors and from his actions thusfar, he has made a conscious effort to correct them. This year, let's leave the politics to the speakers, not to the people who run the organization. ..

I had spent the entire week before the Rolling Stones concert conjuring up new words with which to knock them down in print, and found them all unnecessary. This, my third concert as The Spectrum music editor, was to be my big chance to live out the to say, in no dream of many American rock critics uncertain terms, what I really thought about "the world's greatest rock and roll band." I was enraged over the high ticket prices and last — week's exploitative release of two "new" Stones albums another greatest hits LP and a collection of "previously "rejects"). Having been unreleased songs" (read disillusioned since hearing Exile on Main Street and their Toronto appearance in the 1972 tour, I was convinced that too messed up on expensive they were over the hill drugs to play good music anymore. When I heard that cameras would not be allowed "dagger must be getting inside, my apprehensions grew old," I told the photographer while returning her camera to the car, "probably getting wrinkles in his face." So it was, with this decidedly negative attitude that I joined 17,000 other people at Memorial Auditorium Sunday night, honestly hoping for the worst. I was disappointed. — — — Wasted jazz The opening act was the veteran Crusaders, augmented by Max Bennet on bass and (I think) Larry Carlton on guitar, who played a fine set. I got the feeling that their music, almost archetypal light jazz, was being wasted on this audience, "We want the STOANZ!" came the cry between numbers, and the collective murmuring during them was almost as loud as the music. At least they knew what they were up against, as they went off after about 30 minutes, to hardly overwhelming applause. Another 30 minutes passed as the Aud grew hotter and hotter, with slight diversion provided by the sound of rain teeming down on the roof, and the road testing out their employers' equipment (loudly). Titan, to a half-standing ovation, the Stones rolled on with "Honky Tonk Women." New faces It soon became apparent that some changes had been made. As advertised. Faces guitarist Ron Wood had replaced Mick Taylor, Billy Preston was handling keyboards, and a black percussionist (name unannounced) was perched behind Charlie Watts. To my great relief, the previously overdone horn section (one of the bad points of the last tour) was gone entirely, and Keith Richards' harmony vocals, nearly nonexistent before, were back. "All Down the Line," the second song, saw them joined by someone (Ian Stewart?) on piano and the band something else that was sounded quite well rehearsed missing from the 1972 tour. Two newer numbers, "If you Can't Rock Me" and "Star Star" followed the former segueing into a rearranged "Get Off My Cloud," the latter containing a possible explanation for the ban on photos. During the last chorus, ("You a stahfukkahstahfukkahstahfukkastahfukkastah") a trap door opened behind Jagger to release (what else) an 18 foot inflatable phallus. How subtle. To the crowd's delight, Mick straddled the thing, used it as a punching bag, and shoved it, deflating, back under the stage. From then on, the song lineup began to sound like a greatest hits list, each song better than the last. - Great hits "Gimme Shelter," "Ain't Too Proud to Beg," "Happy," 'Tumbling Dice," "Wild Horses," and "Angie" all came off very well, although the last two, lacking C~ F i D I <r? dJ acoustic guitars, left a little to be desired. Billy Preston infectious background vocals on supplied the "Heartbreaker," and an electric version of "You Got to Move" featured Preston, Wood, Richards, and Jagger harmonizing, huddled around two adjacent mikes. The music was in fine form, although painfully loud I heard that some people had to leave because of the volume. Ron Wood, looking like Keith Richards' double, complemented the latter's sound excellently, which is not surprising in view of the fact that Wood and Rod Stewart have been practicing Stones imitations for years. He is a far better guitarist than I had realized, and as far as I'm concerned, is better than Tyalor was, particularly his slide playing. Richards seems to realize this, and was content to play rhythm guitar (his specialty) behind Ron for most of the evening. — New twist The combination of Watts on drums and the other percussionist (on congas, timbales, cowbells, etc.), lent a new aspect to the sound, a pleasant change from the rather restricted (though efficient) drumming Stones fans have grown accustomed to. Bill Wyman, of course, just stood there. Jagger did exactly what was expected of him, with as much energy and agility as ever. His dancing, posturing, and sexual come-ons to the audience (and band) are hard to describe to anyone who has not at least seen him on film. Depending on your point of view, Jagger is either the CT i •• * 4 T * most exciting or the most ridiculous performer in the world. The only thing new about his performance is an apparent desire to come across as a musician, rather than just a singer. Usually sticking to a few random harmonica notes in the past, Jagger is now playing a little piano (the middle of "You Can't Always Get What You Want") and electric guitar (rhythm on "Fingerprint Files"). According to the current consensus, Mick Jagger is the Rolling Stones. His leather jacketed, belt-weilding performance on an otherwise dull version of "Midnight Rambler" almost won me over to this opinion. Dancing with mister The last part of the show began with two Billy Preston the new 'That's Life" and "Outta Space," the instrumental hit of a few years back. In the middle of the second, Billy treated the crowd to some fancy footwork, and was joined by Jagger, who bumped and humped to everyone's (except probably Preston's) enjoyment. B.P.'s keyboard and backup vocal work throughout the rest of the show as quite competent and (for Someone so excessivy on his own), fairly laid back. Other Stones' tunes included "Browh Sugar," "Luxury," "It's Only Rock and Roll," "Street Fighting Man" and "Jumpin' Jack Flash." The last three were performed as a medley (to discourage encore calls) and, despite an ovation that lasted for almost five minutes, the band did not return. All in all, however, it was a totally enjoyable, professional and exciting concert, in spite of my predispositions, and the group appeared to be trying their best to please. As far as apparent effort and interest in the audience goes, this show bore as little relation to their 1972 Toronto appearance as it did to the one in Memorial Auditorium nine years ago.

But negotiations fell through, so the following review of Where's Poppa? features ALL NEW material. Read on. "Where's Poppa" is a black comedy (in the "Dr. Strangelove" sense) about the travails of a struggling young lawyer (George Segal) who promised his dying father never to put his "vegetable" mother (Ruth Gordon) into a "home" and to care for her always. The movie starts with a typical morning in the life of Gordon Hochsteiter (Segal). He gets his mother up, puts her in front of the television set she will watch all day, pours Pepsi over his Lucky Charms, dresses her, tells her that she can't see Poppa because he's dead, and goes to his office late. At the office, he interviews candidates for a nurse for his mother. No one seems interested in the job the name Hochsteiter seems very familiar in live-in nurse circles until Louise (Trish Van Devere) breezes in, looking every bit a Florence Nightingale rerun. disclaiming any joy in killing "gooks," tells stories of his morbid conquests with gusto. To everyone's dismay, he tells of a Vietnamese brain he had shipped home to his son, now kept in a jar on a shelf. Not to be outdone, the defendant admits he cut off the colonel's big toe after getting into an argument on the beach. “So you wouldn't kill any more gooks, you goddamm fascist," screams the defendant, and leaps over the defense table to finish off the colonel. The court officers hustle the defendant away. Gordon does fantasize, though, about the life he could lead. In one dream sequence, he argues powerfully before a jury, asking them how they would like to come home to a potato, to eat dinner with a parsnip, and demands that his mother be sentenced to spend the rest of her life locked in a toilet. Accompanied by a chaplain and a matorn, he sees the sentence carried out. — — Night blooming roses Gordon's older brother Sidney (Ron Liebman) is hardly more fortunate. Married, and a father, he is called upon whenever Gordon is on the verge of throwing her out the window. So Sidney has gotten used to sprints acorss Central Park to Gordon's apartment. There's a bit of a problem, though Sidney gets mugged by the same gang every time he Comments at length 1 She is hired, without references (a good thing, she admits, because most of her pervious patients died in short order), and she says that it is the first does. nice thing that's happened to her since her marriage.

Louise assures him, Sidney calls his brother from the stationhouse to bail though, that she divorced her husband after only 32 him out. It turns out to be unnecessary, though, the hours, because he had a disconcerting habit of cop, pointing out that it was his first rape, sends defecating during lovemaking.

As matinees are only $1.25, the price is hard to beat. The Mercenary' is good despite flaws — d by Bill Maraschielto Arts Editor Gillo Pontecorvo's 1966 film The Battle of Algiers was greeted by critics with such accolades as "the best film ever made about war." Ir spite of this, his next film Bum! (1968), starring Marlon Brando came and went in the twinkling of an eye, escaping the notice o’ practically everyone. — - Now that Brando is once more marketable. Bum! has been re-released under the more colorful (and far less accurate) title of Tht Mercenary. It’s a shame that, were it not for the capricious winds o commercial favor, The Mercenary would never have re-emerged; bu' that it has is very fortunate. For Pontecorvo displays a lot of raw rough talent, and an occasional spark of genius, in a flawed bu fascinating film. 1 One languid, one noble The African colony of Quemara Portuguese for "Burn" was sr named because the Portuguese, in conquering it, burned it to thi ground. It’s the mid-nineteenth century; England and Portugal are ai war, and England has sent Sir William Walker (Brando) to Quemara tc foment a rebellion there among the natives. Brando's languid characterization is so much like his Fletche Christian in Mutiny on the Bounty that I wonder if he thinks that al Englishmen are inherently foppish. But he's basically believable as professional soldier, a man whose business is war. In one scene, hp calmly explains to a native village how to load and fire a rifle; next wo see heaps of dead Portuguese soldiers a chilling comment b' Pontecorvo on the profession of efficient killing. It's never made clear who plays Jose Delores, the native who becomes the leader of the revolution unfortunately, since he's superh in the role. Jose is a vain braggart whose frustration often manifest itself in bursts of fiery temper. But Pontecorvo clearly believes tha altruism, even for the most stalwart cause, is impossible to attain, anc that sincere dedication to fight for the rights of human beings, howeve; adulterated by human frailty, is the closest man can come to trui — — £ — Everything You’ve Ever Heard About CHEERLEADERS Conies True - nobility. Bridge of cane Although Brando and Jose respect, perhaps even admire, eacl other, they both realize that their cultures are incampatible (subth, expressed when Jose samples Brando's whiskey, Brando Jose's rum and each admits that he prefers his own drink). Jose sees ar unbreachable distance between "those who cut the cane and those whc sell it." When Brando leaves Quemara for the first time, he tells Jose tha he's going to a place called Indochina; Jose responds with a toast ti ''those who cut the cane." The Mercenary parallels the Vietnan situation very closely at times (the sugar company calls in British troops to help put down the revolt). But, though marred slightly by th naivete of zeal, Pontecorvo avoids the shoddy pamphleteering of fa too many political documents, cinematic and otherwise. He startlingly perceptive of the myriad forces economic, social, racial that converge in this kind of a situation. It is Pofitecorvo's human sensitivity that gives his character dimension and keeps his politics from exploding. He handles crow scenes, of which there are many in this film, magnificently, his crowd are not faceless herds, but large numbers of people with identities, oi both sides of the struggle. He gives an apple-cheeked British soldier, beautiful girl in a courtyard, and a refugee storming a wagon of bread reality approaching that of the student, the legless man, and the ok woman on the Odessa Steps in Eisenstein's Potemkin. Against these virtues and a fine sense of composition is yt another must be figured Pontecorvo's difficulty in blending thi styles of his leading actors and his occasional moments of sagging pacr At times, his modulation does concede to his politics, resulting i imbalance. The Mercenary isn't a great film, just a very good one. But in thi seven years since he finished it, Gillo Pontecorvo hasn't made anothe film, and that's disturbing. He needs to develop his talent more, and don't think we can afford to lose a cinema craftsman of the magnitud that Pontecorvo has the potential to become. . — — — T L Produced by PAUL GUCKLER and RICHARD LERNER-Directed by PAUL GUCKLER “ GRANADA 317b Mam SI.

Even so, inertia is a basic make a hit single. As far as I can tell, the only songs law of nature, and I'm sure this album will turn that stand a chance for the AM playlists are "Bitter platinum, simply because it is Elton John, the clown prince of seventies pop music. Perhaps John and Taupin realize how good they once were, for a large portion of this album is reminiscence, dwelling on the hardships of becoming a superstar in only five years. Hell, there's even a scrapbook and profusely illustrated lyrics, showing all sorts of cute shots of young Elton and Bernie, their old friends and bands, and the places they played, lived, and hung out. Just what you always Elton John, Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy, MCA The Rolling Stones, Metamorphosis, (Abkco) Every once in a while an album comes out with both a misleading title and a misleading ad campaign, and a record company pulls in a quick and tidy little fortune. Metamorphosis does not provide any sort of historical view of the Stones, except perhaps to tell you why nobody ever heard of them before '64. While it might be a delight to find this album in a $1.99 bargain bin, paying double that, on sale, to buy it new does not seem enchanting in the least. This is not to say that it is an atrocious album. It isn't, although that may be an initial reaction for some. It's just that the album devotes one side to stuff done, with one exception, before they were known widely, and the other side includes recent material they couldn't work into other albums, which just doesn't reflect the Stones many of us love. The album starts out with a personal Stones favorite, "Out of Time," an early blues-rock number Arith some nice guitar work (presumably by Brian Jones, former guitarist for the group, although a number of other guitarists including John McLaughlin and Jimmy Page appear in the credits) and an unusually lush (for the Stones) string opening. "Don't Lie To Me" is notable for very nice piano parts, and terrible vocals by Jagger, backed up by equally poor harmonies. "Each and Every Day of the Year" is the early Stones trying to sound like the Bee Gees, to the point of trumpets behind Jagger sometimes, and a full orchestra behind him the rest of the time. Phil Spector would've been proud; in fact Phil Specter's listed in the credits, but they don't tell his role. This album's version of "Heart of Stone," the one "hit" on the album, is anemic, to add insult to injury. The group hadn't yet learned to harmonize, but an imitation of the Beatles appears just the same. They overzealously used a slide guitar, probably better left for their later "Country Honk." "I'd Much Rather Be With The Boys" has a certain appeal of innocence in its 50's-ish lyrics and its Dave Clark Five-inspired arrangement. It also shows the downfall of the early Stones perfectly. On the syntactically horrendous line, "I'd much rather be with the boys and the boys they would much rather be with the boys than with girls like you," Jagger loses the melody on the final "girls," Bill Wyman plays the wrong bass line, .and Charlie Watts gets totally wiped out on drums. As if to rub it in, the group follows that line with a falsetto "yes they do-oo-oo-oo" which, unfortunately, was meant to be in harmony. At best, the harmony could've reached a Gary Lewis level of quality, but the Stones can't even sing that high. "Sleeping City" could be considered nice Muzak, with pleasant orchestration backing up an uncharacteristically soft song. The rhythm is nice, too, down to the glockenspiel behind Jagger (a la "Snoopy's Christmas"). Side 1 closes with "Try A Little Harder," which has the group trying to do a good Van Morrison imitation, with predictable results. They do try awfully hard, though, to the extent of a "doop-do-do-do-doop-doop-d-do-do, dodoo" chorus, but Jagger just can't sing like Van. Side 2, consisting of newer material, opens with "I Don't Know Why," a blues number with piano and slide guitar reminiscent of the Stones Let It Bleed album. Mick Taylor wrote himself a nice guitar part on the song. "If You Let Me" has a nice jazzy sound benefitting the toned-down bluegrass it is. It's a song you would expect to hear at a coffeehouse. "Jiving Sister Fanny" is a nice shake-it song that is suspiciously similar to Cat Mother's "Can You Dance To It?". I have no idea which came first. "Downtown Suzie" is an uptempo blues number with nice slide guitar, reminiscent of "You Gotta Move" on Sticky Fingers. "Family" is an exceptionally good song, something like a synthesis of the Kinks and the Stone's "Jigsaw Puzzle" from Beggar's Banquet, about how a family reacts to their daughter taking up prostitution. "Memo From Turner" was the main song of dagger's movie Performance. From a heavy-metal opening that brings back memories of Blue Cheer, dagger taunts a set of businessmen with blues vocals to a heavy metal arrangement. "I'm Going Down" has some nice sax work but for the most part resembles the guitars of Sticky Fingers of a somewhat tighter version of "Happy All in all, this is the kind of album that people know has some use; they just can't think of one. It's probably good for parties thrown at ungodly hours or ones that bog down early, and it's sort of nice to have around if you want some over-orchestrated, non-raunchy Stones for variety. And it would probably be an excellent birthday or Christmas/Chanuka gift, since the recipient would be very unlikely to already have it. Somehow, though, I wouldn't go to the extreme step of buying it for myself unless it was in the bargain bins in the Record Co-op. -Mike McGuire wanted, right? To top it all off, they've included an order blank for the "Official Elton John shirt. Poster, and In-concert book," backed by an entry form to join the "Official Elton John Fan Club." Alan Aldridge, the artist who did the Beatles Illustrated Lyrics, was engaged for the cover art and illustrations to accompany the enclosed words. Elton John, Talk about delusions of grandeur who is probably the most successful act since the Beatles, apparently doesn't realize that the masses are not nearly as discriminating as they used to be. In the words of the infamous Christopher Milk, someone "Some people will drink anything" ought to remind Mr. John and Mr. Raupin that flash and talent are not necessarily the same thing. I won't dwell too long on the contents of the album's ten songs, for if you're interested, you've probably already bought it anyway. Let is suffice to say that most of Captain Fantastic et. al. is a rehash an all too familiar combination of previous musical ideas and lame lyrics. Falwlessly recorded and produced, the album is presented in a highly polished package that is probably worth more than — — — Fingers" and "Meal Ticket," both of which are about how hard it used to be for E.J. and B.T. to make a living. Naturally, there are a few ballads, none of which come anywhere near the quality of the old stuff (one of the pictures in the lyric book is of the original draft of "Your Song," framed), and the vocal and piano lines have all been heard before. Probably the nicest thing I can say about Captain Fantastic is that it doesn't include "Lucy in the Sky," "Philadelphia Freedom," or "Pinball Wizard." However, you can be sure that there will be another "greatest hits" package coming out soon enough with these and more. John Duncan U.B.

Ms. Horn cited her bad experience with the FBI as an example of the “perversions” of the Nixon administration, which was in office at the time. She was harassed by the agency, she said, after a spy was placed in library where She worked, who allegedly informed the government the of a “conspiracy” involving the famous Berrigan brothers, Daniel and Philip. The activist priests were acquaintances of Ms. Horn although NITE A farce Before the grand jury trial, however, the FBI briefed Mr. Douglas days, and when the trial-began, his testimony “sounded strangely as if he were saying what the FBI wanted, to hear.” The government’s conspiracy charge was . supported completely by Mr. Douglas’ testimony, and was refuted by everyone else’s. But Ms. Horn refused to testify,-reading to the court instead a statement in which she labeled the trial and the charges “a farce.” She was sent to jail for a week for contempt of court, she said.

Boyd Douglas was a close friend of Ms. Horn, and worked in the library with her. It was her association with him that led to the FBI subpoenas, she noted. He was a prisoner in the same cell block as Daniel Berrigan, and befriended the lonely priest, appearing to be sympathetic to his anti-war sentiments. Mr. Douglas entered a prison work-study program, and was placed in the library at Bucknell University, where he met Ms. Horn. He became closely involved with librarians and students who were in the anti-war movement, and helped Ms. Horn arrange parties to which he invited many of his anti-war sympathizer friends. She stressed that these meetings were purely of a social nature, and nothing like the alleged “Conspiracy” was ever discussed. ; I by Andrew Wamkk Spectrum Staff Writer ■ — — _ • , ■ • V! to < any dinner — rtfcntrnhiif your, second •; Make it fadjacent to Canadian Customs at the Peace Bridge) Friday, 20 June 1975 The Spectrum .

In a 300-page report made public last week, an investigative commission headed by Vice President Nelson Rockefeller found that the CIA administered drugs to unsuspecting human guinea pigs, monitored telephone calls, infiltrated a congressional campaign, opened thousands of pieces of mail, and spied on domestic dissident groups at various times during the past 300,000 persons arrested for offenses related to homosexuality, the Rockefeller Commission found. Despite a rule against providing manpower to local police forces at home or abroad, the CIA lent men and radio-equipped vehicles to the D.C.

The commission also accused the agency of 32 wiretaps and 12 breakins directed against persons having some affiliation with the agency.

The Opening mail the 1955, commission said, the CIA handled up to 4.3 million pieces of mail a year and opened about 13,000 each year.

The employee was sent to New York for treatment, and psychiatric with committed suicide while there. The report was made by the commission after a five-month Washington, D.C. area, ranging study.

A number of public officials had alleged that Lee Harvey Oswald had some connection with the and agency that Watergate burglars Frank Sturgis and E.

The commission found no evidence for either of these assertions, but admitted that it could not launch a thorough investigation into the ASU. —continued from page 3— .. the legislation on the Senate’s agenda, thus effectively killing the bill.

On the subject of foreign assassinations, recent allegations have linked the CIA to murder plots against Cuban Premier Fidel and the late French Charles DeGaulle, as well as to successful assassinations of former Chilean president Salvador Allende, Rafeal Trujillo of the Dominican Republic, former Vietnamese South Castro president, President Diem, and several other foreign heads of state. While the Rockefeller report Commission on these events will be kept secret. Senator (D-ldaho), Frank Church chairman of the Senate committee investigating the CIA, said that his committee will make public its report, which tells of at least one successful assassination attempt and a number of failures. A third committee investigating the agency, the House Select Committee on Intelligence, has been involved in vicious internal fighting that may cause its reconstitution or dissolution. Committee Chairman Lucien Nedzi ■ (D-Michigan) attempted to resigh after he had come under fire for refusing to act on information of assassination plots, but the full House refused to accept his resignation. Nedzi claimed earlier this week that the committee was uable to function the way it is currently constituted.

The issue surfaced last week as Dean of the Colleges Irving Spitzberg was called before the Academic Cabinet to explain the housing policy. “The sense of the body (IRC) seems to be that this creates an unfair bias against non-college students,” IRC President David Brownstein charged in a series of letters to Director of Housing Madison Boyce, President Robert Kctter, and the members of the Academic Cabinet. In response to Mr. Brownstein’s complaint, Dr. Ketter expressed a willingness to investigate the matter, saying, “a number of students approached me during Community University Day to complain about what they perceived as an unfair bias against the non-college student.” Priority or bias? IRC members feel that “a minority of the dorm population has been given priority, as well as control over the room selection in a majority of the living and facility space,” Mr. Brownstein reported in a letter to Mr. Boyce dated April 26th. But, “Mr. Brownstein confuses priority with unfair bias,” Dr. Spitzberg explained in a memorandum to the Academic Cabinet prior to its meeting June 2nd. Explaining the justification for the College priority system. Dr. Spitzberg emphasized the ... concept. 1 simply feel that College membership should increase due to the programming involved, as opposed to this year’s membership drive, which was largely composed of room choice promises,” Mr. Brownstein concluded. Dr. Spitzberg and Mr. Brownstein presented their arguments to the Academic Cabinet June 2nd at a meeting chaired by Executive Vice President Albert Somit. Mr. Brownstein introduced to the Cabinet recently released results of a University Housing survey taken last year in which the students questioned ranked “Residential Colleges” as their ninth preference, followed only by “Triples, Quadruples and Six-Man Rooms.” Among the group of students already living in residential Colleges, the preference for College living ranked only fifth. “And this is primarily due to the members of Clifford Furness College, an especially strong College,” Mr. Brownstein added. Shot-gun wedding Dr. Spitzberg seemed pleased with the results of the sub-group survey, and said the statistics showed that once students join the Colleges, they are satisfied and wish to remain, even if it means sacrificing anotlfer type of room. “Well, Irv, jt seems like you’re pushing a shot-gun wedding. Marry, and you’ll learn to love it,” quipped Dr. Somit in response to Dr. Spitzberg’s interpretation. Dr. Spitzberg and other Collegiate officials maintain that the priority situation is essential to the successful operation of the colleges. “I was disturbed to hear that the Administration is even questioning the issue. -It has always been understood that the success of residential programs would be fostered by the assignment of contiguous buildings for housing,” said Joseph Nechasck, Master of College H. Because the number of most desirable rooms is limited, both sides agree that some students will have to accept less desirable accommodations. “Students who choose the Colleges should not have to bear that burden,” Dr. Spitzberg asserted. “If they do, you are subverting the creation of strong living/learning communities.” Big banner Members of the Academic Cabinet were reportedly disturbed by a fifteen-foot banner which Mr. Brownstein removed from Porter Quad and presented at the meeting. In large red letters, the sign said: “If you have any desire to live in Porter Quad next year, you must join Colleges B or H . . Joining the Colleges does not mean signing your life away.” “There are less debatable ways for a College to recruit,” Dr. Somit observed. —Santos Ketter suspends five arrested during sit-in Five of the ten students arrested during the April 25 sit-in at Hayes Hall have been suspended for periods ranging from six months to one year. University President Robert Ketter announced last week. Dr. Ketter reached his decision following hi* review of the transcripts and uk. Manr*ts.ancc of recommendations of the University Committee Public Order. Dr. Ketter acted, despite more lenient committee recommendations for 6-month suspensions for three of the students, and probation for the other two -Dr. Ketter, on vacation, in his Buffalo home, refused to come to the telephone to comment on his decision. Charles Reitz, suspended until the fall 1976, would have completed work on his PhD next year. The other four students were Gary Gleba, Paul Ginsberg, Eliot Sharp and Ishmael Gonzalez. Student"Association (SA) Director of Student Affairs Steve Schwartz said he was upset that SA was not notified of the suspensions, nor were they given any explanation from Dr. Ketter for the action. None of our business “He practically told Michele and I it was none of our business,” he said SA President Michele Smith said Dr. Ketter would give her no indication at all how he came to his decision, telling her he didn’t see why she should know. Both Ms. Smith and Mr. Swartz felt the suspended students have “a strong case” for appealing their penalties. Albert Somit, acting University President during Dr. Ketter’s absence, said he was not “privy” to the reasons for the suspensions. He said two situations generally warrant suspension of a student: if the continued presence of the student poses a threat to others, or if the student has committed a wrongdoing grave enough to deserve academic penalty. When asked if either of these situations were, in Dr. Ketter’s opinion, present in the case of any of the suspended students, he again said he didn’t know. Norman Effman, attorney for Mr. Ginsberg, is planning an appeal to Dr. Ketter based on photographs taken in Hayes lobby at the time the arrests were being made. . necessity of coherent residedtial space to facilitate living/learning communities. This is an “academic justification which is directly relevent to the educational mission of the residential colleges,” he said. Mr. Brownstein agreed that the Colleges should be given as much space as they need, depending on the demand for College Residence. “However, my point is that the demand for residence in the Collegiate units was severely amplified by the granting of residence on apriority basis.” “The colleges are a wonderful system in Although the Academic Cabinet reached no it did “recpgnize the problem,” according to Dr. Somit. A meeting of Dr. Spitzberg, Mr. Brownstein, and one of the University vice presidents is being arranged. conclusions, “There are no concessions to be made,” Dr. Spitzberg said, remaining firm in his position. “Colleges should be given as much space as their members demand. Colleges are better for students, and better for the University,” he stressed. New evidence Mr. Effman said he told presidential assistant Thomas Craine that he has nevi' evidence and that Dr. Craine told him to put it in writing. In the meantime, Mr. Ginsberg received notice of his suspension. Civil charges against three students arrested near the Campus Security offices on Winspear Avenue were dismissed by City Court Judge Sam Green this week. Charges against the remaining seven students are still pending. Trials are slatted to begin in Part 3 before Judge Green Monday morning The students were arrested April 25 when protestors and Campus Security officers clashed inside and outside Hayes Hall. The demonstrators had occupied part of Hayes lobby to protest the administration’s rejection of funds approved by the Student Assembly to provide buses to Albany the following Monday for rallies and workshops supporting the Attica defendants. �SUNY press service in the planning stages Experts say it is unlikely Oswald acted by himself Editor’s Note: This is the second above the chin line.

Many start with Oswald’s confirming that Oswald had simple assertion during the time recently fired a gun.

One of the oddest concerns the short life span of 18 material witnesses to the assassination all died within three and a half years of the killing. Six died by gunfire, three in motor accidents, two by suicide, one from a cut throat, one from a karate chop to the neck, three from heart attacks and two from natural causes. According to researcher Sylvia Meagher, “An actuary, engaged by the London Sunday Times, concluded that on November 22, 1963, the odds against these witnesses being dead by February, 1967, were one hundred thousand trillion to one.” One of the well known surprises of the Zapruder film of the assassination is the “umbrella - man.” November 22 was a sunny, windy day. Yet before the first shot rang out, a man standing near a roadsign close to where an Kennedy passed raised umbrella and began to turn it counterclockwise. After the final shot, while spectators ran or fell to the ground, the umbrella man calmly folded up his unbrella and walked away. -This man has never been identified. Conspiracy theorists suggest he was a signal man for the assassins. Another story deals with Clay Shaw and David Ferric, two men accused by New Orleans district attorney Jim Garrison of participating in a CIA-related to cortspiracy Kennedy assassinate W. *' ' Assassination theories I • The formation of a SUNY-wide press service to provide State University campus newspapers with informatiori affecting their students has been tentatively worked out by the Student Association of the State University (SASU). The proposal for the State University News Network (SUNN) was approved by the SASU membership in April, and according to Andy Hugos, SASU Communications Director, a conference of representatives of SUNY campus newspapers and radio stations will be held in mid-September to discuss details of the service. The SUNN proposal described the relationship between SASU and desire, “to the SUNY student media as “complementary.” It is SASU’s them,” in affect which the issues guarantee that students are aware of is the manner, and it media s a unified “in to them order to respond make information about to ability these issues readily available, the proposal stated. “On the other hand, the student media wishes to provide the student it serves with information about relevant issues, but only SASU has the means to do so,” it continued A SUNY-consciousness SUNN would distribute a weekly eight-page press packet, “both original, in-depth research done for SASU containing and articles written in campus media.” The emphasis will be on SASU activities and important events at individual campuses. emphasis on “The SUNY-wide news will help develop - a SUNY-consciousness among students... once they g (jgt realize they share common problems',” Mr. Hugos explained. IN addition, SUNN would publish more detailed, non-deadline stories. “SASU research reports will be geared to alert local editors to state-wide problems and SASU’s response to them,” Mr. Hugos continued. “Any SUNY problem SASU researches is sure to, continue long enough for any campus paper to use the material regardless of it i production schedules.” t> I. For dispensing late-breaking news, SUNN will collect and keep track of deadlines for SUNY papers and synchronize the press releases’ production and delivery schedule, “to make most effective use” of them. „ . Garrison’s case, amidst a flood of international attention, fell apart as Ferrie died under mysterious circumstances and Garrison couldn’t prove Shaw worked for the tlA. Both Shaw and Ferrie have since been confirmed CIA operatives by CIA former staffer Victor Marchetti. A fourth story deals with three “bums” arrested near the Book after the Depository shortly killing. Some critics charge that two of these men bear a remarkable resemblance to “Waterbuggers” E. Howard Hunt and Frank Sturgis. According to the theory, Hunt and Sturgis, like Shaw and Ferric, were involved in a CIA-related plot to assassinate Kennedy. After the shooting they were picked up by Dallas police, but later released with no records of the arrest filed. Hunt, however, has vehemently denied being in Dallas that day and has filed a $750,000 lible suit against the National Tattler after the newspaper alleged Hunt appeared to have been on the scene following the assassination. Nonetheless the FBI has confirmed that a photo analyst was sent to Dallas in early May to study the bum photos for leads on a possible new investigation.

Professors Chous and Reipe met with Dr. Ertell on Dr. Lawler’s behalf, presenting evidence of Dr. Lawler’s “excellent work,” publications and community service. In addition to these appeals, Dr. Lawler received support from the Philosophy Department, and members of other departments, including English Professor George Hochfield The Philosophy Department unanimously endorsed reappointment, and a petition was signed by Lawler’s Dr. all but three faculty members. Ertell reinstates Lawler for a year following sev by Rosalie Zuckerman Special Features Editor The decision not to reappoint Philosophy professor James Lawler after May 1976 was reversed last month by Merton Ertell, acting vice president for Academic Affairs. Dr. Ertell, who originally ordered Dr. Lawler’s dismissal, changed, the ruling following appeals by Dr: Lawler, members of the Philosophy Department and other faculty members. Dr. Ertell refused to renew Dr. Lawler’s contract for the 1976-77 academic year in early May, despite official endorsement of the Philosophy Department and the Faculty of Social Sciences. At the time, Dr. Lawler charged that his controversial political interests, which included support of the Day Care Center, union activities and participation in the Social Sciences College, influenced Dr. Ertell’s decision. Although Dr. Ertell denied this, he refused to state his reasons for the action. James aw er —Santos 1 Letter to Ketter Two weeks ago, Dr. Ertell informed Social Sciences Provost Arthur Butler that Dr. Lawler was to be reappointed. Dr. Ertell again refused to state specific reasons for his decision, saying only; “I heard Dr. Lawler’s appeal and concluded that he should be reappointed for one more year.” Dr. Lawler explained that after the decision to tenninate his contract was made, he wrote a personal letter of appeal to University President Robert Ketter. Dr. Ketter responded that since this was not a case involving tenure, he was not obligated to get involved and that appeals would have to be made to Dr. Ertell, Dr. Lawler said. Dr. Lawler and his advocates Philosophy Professors Kah-Kyung Cho and Dale Riepe then met individually with Dr. Ertell to appeal this decision. D'f. Lawler said that during the meeting, Dr. Ertell explained the reasons behind his dismissal. “Dr. Ertell said he did not believe my record made me qualified for tenure Still disturbed Although satisfied with the reappointment, both Dr. Lawler and Dr. Reipe are still disturbed over the rationale behind the original decision not to reappoint him. Dr. Lawler is still convinced that his political activities entered into this decision. He also believes the underlying reason for the decision was part of a historical tradition of “discrimination against Marxists works” which have always been considered “outside the tail of academic legitimacy, Dr. Lawler explained. Dr. Reipe said he was not at all surprised over the decision to dismiss Dr. Lawler, explaining that “there was always at least one person in the administration who wanted Dr. Lawler out because of his political activities. I have known about this even before Dr. Gelbaum turned him down,” he said. Dr. Reipe claimed that the University has traditionally been run by “solidly conservative administrators from small farming towns.” terminate my and that it was in my best contract now rather than two years from now,” he said. He then replied that his case was not a matter of tenure, but simply reappointment. “Dismissing me before the full seven-year probation period implies a serious negligence on my part.” Debatable journals Dr. Lawler asked Dr. Ertell to examine his services to both the University and Buffalo communities. Dr. Lawler Persuasive advocates “Dr. Lawler comes up in favor of child care and a Marxist philosophy and this makes them shudder,” he added. Dr. Reipe does not feel Dr. Ertell was one of these administrators but that he might have been acting under their influence without contacting faculty or scholars in the field. Philosophy Department Chairman Peter Hare and Dr. Butler do not know the exact rationale behind Dr. Lawler’s reappointment, but speculate that Dr. Lawler’s personal advocates “must have been very persuasive.” Low-income students can still get food stamps * " * . by Mike McGuire Spectrum Staff Writer Students with low incomes can still qualify for federally-subsidized food stamps in Erie County, according to officials at the Food Stamp distribution office in downtown Buffalo. They emphasize, however, that the federal government could hand down regulations restricting food stamps for students at any time. Judy Putuska of the Erie County Department of Social Services, which runs the program said students are currently subject to the same eligibility requirements for food stamps as any other person who applies. Any contribution to the student from parents is counted as income, and thus, a high parental contribution could disqualify a student. Presently, a person buying food alone who makes $194 a month or less after certain expenses, is usually eligible for the program. For a household of two persons, the cutoff is $280 a month; for three, $406; for four, $513; and for five, $606 a month. After July 1, though, the cutoffs will be adjusted to $215 for one person; $300 for two; $427 for three; $540 for four; and $640 income a month for a household of five persons. Adjusted income Ms. Putuska told The Spectrum that the Social Services Department computes the adjusted income by subtracting payroll deductions, medical expenses, utility bills, and in the case of students, educational expenses, from the person’s wages and other income. In addition, if the rent a person pays is bver 30 percent of the income, the amount over 30 percent can also be deducted as an expense. According to the Department’s booklet Erie County Has Food Stamps For You!, an individual receiving food stamps receives ' ■ *- ■* ■ -m $23 worth every two weeks, for which he or she pays anywhere from $.50 to $22; depending on adjusted income, A student receiving food stamps with a low income after expenses, would pay relatively little. In order to obtain food stamps, potential recipients first call the Food Stamp office at 846-8347 for information. They are then sent an application and an instruction booklet explaining eligibility regulations. If they feel they are eligible, they may make an appointment with the Food Stamp office for certification. ■ . < While most appointments are made at the main office downtown, they may also be made in a number of satellite centers for convenience. Satellite centers arc located in the Riverside-Black Rock area, at 311 Ontario Street run by the HOPE community organization, and at the Amherst Senior Citizens Center at 72 South Cayuga Road in Williamsville. Prospective recipients are interviewed by a caseworker to determine eligibility, and should receive either a rejection letter or their first “authorization to purchase food stamps” card within a week to ten days. Afterwards, recipients must return for recertification at periods ranging from every month to every six months, depending on stability of income and expenses. According to one caseworker, the average recipient comes in every three months for recertification, which is only done at the Ellicott Square building downtown. Like cash After qualifying for food stamps, recipients can purchase them every two weeks at most commercial banks, upon presentation of a bimonthly authorization card that is mailed by the Social Services Department. The stamps can be used like cash in virtually all supermarkets and grocery stores, as well as in the local food cooperatives, except that they may not be used to buy tobacco, alcoholic beverages, or non-food items such as paper towels. Food Stamps may, however, be used to purchase seeds if the plant is edible, such as tomatoes or lettuce. Disputing Ms. Putuska’s information, however, is Neil Newman, a student at this University whose household now receives food stamps. He claimed that students are not “treated like everyone else” by all food stamp workers. Mr. Newman and his housemates received what he thought was “delaying treatment” at the hands of some workers, and found that different workers told them “different stories.” He found, however, that some do “give students a break.” Inspectors? The three students in their household brought in letters from their parents indicating that the parents pay rent, and in one case, tuition. This gave the food stamp workers some idea of the extent of parental support. Friday, 13 June 1975 The Spectrum Page three . . �Edit Who is to judge? University President Robert Ketter's decision to suspend five of the students arrested-during the April 25 sit-in at Hayes Hall, thus disregarding the more lenient recommendations of his own University ten means the Committee on the Maintenance of Public Order, is first time the President has acted contrary to the dictates of general consensus. This past January, Dr. Ketter significantly altered the recommendations of the broad-based, University-wide Colleges Chartering Committee by shortening the duration of all the charters, adding various provisions to some, and reminding three of the Colleges to be "particularly sensitive to matters of academic freedom." Apparently, Dr. Ketter, in establishing these committees in the first place, wants to maintain some semblance of democracy and hopefully have a firm backing to support him. But when the verdict is handed down from these committees following many long hours of testimony, and it doesn't agree with Dr. Ketter's own judgements, he just goes ahead and acts unilaterally. At a University where the principles of justice one hears about in the classroom should be practiced by its policy makers, this behavior is wrong. The university would stand to lose nothing by dropping the campus charges against the students. On the other hand, suspending the five students one a PhD candidate and another only a freshman permanently scars their records and possibly damages their futures irreparably. It appears Dr. Ketter has singled out these students as scapegoats of the demonstration, and has opted for severe punitive measures to frighten others from engaging in similar "mischief" in the future. — — Considering the seriousness of the consequences. Dr. Ketter, who is presently on one month sabbatical leave, has yet to justify his decision publicly. The least he can do is extend the students and the University community the courtesy of a public explanation. If he does not have the benevolence to drop all charges, at least he can abide by the ruling of the appointed University judges. The selling of the Colleges The need for a Collegiate System should reflect an interest in the innovative, educational merits of the Colleges, not in their access to choice dormitory rooms. Certainly the Colleges are worthy enough institutions that they shouldn't have to sell themselves by trading off the most desirable residential space in the Ellicott Complex for a longer list of members. Not only does this policy lessen dormitory students' freedom of choice it violates the academic spirit of the Colleges. — This does not mean-the Colleges should not be given some priority when it comes around to assigning rooms. As Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg emphasized, coherent residential space is necessary for the survival of the living-learning philosophy behind many of the Collegiate units. However, it seems clear and therefore, unfortunate, that students are more interested in getting a single or a double room than joining a Collegiate community for the sake of the College. We sympathize with the College's need to gather all the support they can get and they should be given as much space as they need depending on actual demand. But promising students rooms before the demand has been fairly determined, supports a bias against students who really do not want to live in a Collegiate setting. This year, Clifford Furnas College successfully recruited a large number of students by publicizing its programs without mentioning, room priority at all. Thus, by running strong membership drives in the spring, the Colleges can establish demand first and set aside room space for the fall second. What the Colleges should be doing is educating students as to the academic advantages of joining a College and then letting them decide, not using nearly three fourths of the residential space in Ellicott to bribe them.

Hooterville, a small, rural village located somewhere in the not so deep South, plans to celebrate the upcoming bicentennial much like any other American town, except for one minor difference: the festivities will begin on July 4 of this year. Once considered a “rustic refuge for mindless country folk,” Hooterville wants to be a step ahead of the rest of the country In at least this respect. Actually, it is difficult to convince the local residents that perhaps their well-meaning intentions have little to do with reality. This questioning of sanity has not deterred the townspeople from making complete and utter fools of themselves. If anything, they are more determined to see through an event that signifies nearly twenty decades of life, liberty, and the pursuit of parking spaces, give or take a year. For all intents and purposes, 1975 represents more than a year to these people: it is also an incredibly high number. Still the townies are confident that their premature bicentennial will do much to enhance their stature as a great American institution (presently somewhere between J.P. Morgan and E.J. (Corvettes) as well as put Hooterville on the map, or at least on the mailing lists of the Readers Digest. General store entrepreneur Sam Drucker believes that Hooterville’s slumping commerce will receive a sharp kick in the butt if the bicentennial goes off as planned. Fifty-six years old and bald, Mr. Drucker gave this opinion; “Well, you see folks, it’s like this. Hooterville is what you might call an outgrowth of FDR’s New Deal, though some folks think we were spawned from the Beverly Hillbillies, like a trout laying its eggs upstream. That ain’t entirely true neither ’cause we folks were around when Sherman burnt down Atlanta using a butane lighter. General Sherman thought Hooterville was too pretty to bum down and guessed we needed a good cleaning instead. That’s why he busted a dam about 10 miles North of here which completely flooded Hooterville for over 40 years. I’m proud to say my father was one of the men who installed our first drain pipe around the turn of the century, which did a lot to dry up the area.” Mr. Drucker, however, did little to explain why Another citizen, merchant Fred Haney, is in charge of selling valuable artifacts, collected over our nation’s 200 years. Mr. Haney, whose voice cracks repeatedly, is always interested in making a sale: “’Scuse me, Mister, did you say you were interested in buying an actual revo-lutionary warship sail? It just so happens that I’ve got a sail from the boat that John Paul Jones sailed, made of beautiful terry cloth, and you can have this priceless article for only $.25. If you want, I’ll also include this lovely array of pots and pans, used by Paul Revere to cook up his famous ‘Midnight Ride’ special.” The Hooterville residents will also be treated to a variety of surprises, and our sources report that these events include free rides on Mr. Ziffel’s broken tractor, a surveying excursion of Mr. Ziffel’s bedroom led by local yokel Hank Kimbell, and an autograph session with the Ziffel’s son, Arnold the Pig. Arnold,, who could not be reached for immediate comment, indicated earlier that he might be joined by another Hooterville favorite, Gerald Ford. Of course, no bicentennial would be complete without a king or queen of the celebration, and Hooterville is no exception. The Hootervillians recently elected Oliver and Liza Douglas to reign over the festivities, and Mr. Douglas’ gratitude is quite apparent; “What scatter-brained nonsense!” “But Oliver, don’t you want to celebrate the bicycle-centennial?” “That’s bicentennial, Liza, and everybody else in the country is doing it next year.” “Well, maybe not everybody knows how to drive a bicycle yet.” “What’s this got to do with bicycles, Liza? The bicentennial means the 200th year since the signing of the Declaration of Independence.” “That’s a very long divorce, Oliver.” “And I refuse to be king of this mockery.” “Not king of mockery, Oliver, king of Hooterville. Why, royal blood runs in my family. My grandtpother was Queen of Hungary .” “Hungary?” “Oh, are you hungry Oliver. I’ll go make some hotcakes.” Preserve formaldy hide Friday, 13 June 1975 2 m To the Editor. In reply to Paige Miller’s unfounded accusation that the nauga population in the northeastern U.S. is on the verge of extinction, I must take issue. Anyone who has read the latest government figures knows that the naugas have been running rampant. This is largely due to the decline in numbers of their natural predator, the Giant Formaldy. And although naugahide is in great demand by furniture conglomerates, this is infinitesimal compared to the exploitative usage of formaldy hide by huge chemical and biological multinational corporations. The Giant Formaldy is about to disappear from the face of the earth. I would hope that Mr. Miller would direct his concerns where they are more acutely needed. Leroy M.

After going through the number of personnel changes that they have, there is absolutely no reason for them to still sound good, but they do. Having been a Fleetwood fan since the days of English Rose and the phenomenal Then Play On, I started to lost hope when resident genius Peter Green left to pursue spiritual enlightenment. Then the Kiln House album came out and, although their sound had become a lot mellower, they were still a first rate band. With the release of Future Games, the lost of Jeremy Spencer, and the addition of Christine McVie and Bob Welch, Fleetwood Mac moved more in the direction of a softer, commercial sound and, strangely enough, began to catch on in the United States. After the departure of Danny Kirwan, the last .of their original guitarists, th'eir sound became increasingly more bland, and, of course, more popular. Then, about a year ago, their former manager, taking advantage of slump in their touring schedule, put a bogus band on the road and called them Fleetwood Mac, claiming rights to the name. Due to this slight bit of misrepresentation, and the ensuing angry audiences, Fleetwood Mac, now consisting of Mick Fleetwood, John and Christine McVie, Lindsay and Stevie Nicks (only two original members) Buckingham is being billed as the original group. I didn't know what to expect from them. playing, I began to feel relieved maybe this would be a good concert after all. New guitarist Lindsay Buckingham, despite a lack of volume and an apparent Eric Clapton complex, sounded a lot better than Bob Welch, his — predecessor. Almost as good At the beginning of their second number ("Station Man" from the Kiln House album), they were joined by female singer Stevie Nicks, and the mixture of tight three part harmonies and a loud, driving guitar sound came quite close to the original. John McVie is as good a bass player as he ever was (if not better) and Mick Fleetwood, looking pounded away at c like an escapee from a mental his’drums as if his life depended QO'&Ki. At least half of the material they performed was new, apparently from an upcoming alburn, and featured Nicks and Buckingham predominantly. The new songs ("Angel" is the only title I can recall) were, for the most part, better than Bob Welch's ofiten inane handiwork. (Ever heard Sentimental Lady" or "Bermuda Triangle"?) One new piece was done acoustically, featuring Stevie's very expressive voice and some fine fingerpicking by Buckingham, while Christine M.'s dusky, soulful voice was at its best on "Spare Me a Little" from the Bare Trees Ip / Memories of Green Blues, blues The concert (June5, New Century Theatre) was opened by the Shakin' Smith Blues Band, a local group who I'm sure many of you have heard. Their set consisted of old blues numbers (surprise!), played in the unchanging Chicago style, with some degree of expertise. Their harp/singer is very good (the closest to Butterfield I've ever heard), and their lead guitarist was quite competent, but it's hard to listen to 45 minutes of blues without noticing a little repetition. The second band of the evening, spotlighting singer/guitarist Henry Gross, was slightly less interesting. Essentially a hard rock-raunch outfit, Henry and his band played about an hour of very predictable tunes, each reminding me of something else. Interspersed with a few softer, slow numbers (showcasing Gross' annoying voice), most of the rock material was reminiscent of rejected Rolling Stones cuts or perhaps the Doobie Brothers playing their first high school dance. When the Mac opened their set with a rousing shuffle piece, led by Christine McVie's greatly improved piano S' The other new songs, a mixture of light rock with pretty harmonies, country picking and intriguing minor chord progressions, sounded in places a little like the old (Peter Green) Fleetwood Mac. As previously mentioned, McVie's keyboard work on electric and acoustic pianos, organ and string synthesizer, was very good, at times taking the forefront with unexpected solos. Fleetwood and John McVie both had solos toward the end of the set, the former going nuts with a variable-pitch drum and a whistle, the latter playing some nice jazz-tinged bass lines. Aside from "Station Man," the band did a- few other old favorites, including "Rattlesnake Shake," "The Green Manalishi," and "Oh Well" (all Peter Green tunes). Although plagued by Buckingham's slightly weak voice, they still brought back fond memories. These songs were the only ones that caused any real excitement in the audience, who remained politely attentive, though apparently unmoved, through the rest of the concert.

There are moments when Wicker's third person is so corny ("Tom Wicker could not help remembering.the easy small-town life he once had known") that the reader must pause to reassure himself that it is not he, but the book that is hokey. Had Wicker not sought to artificially distance himself from a story that is built around himself, or introspective almost by definition, more of his self-analysis would seem credible, or at the very least, digestable. Most Southern liberals seem to bear the collective guilt of centuries of slavery and racism. As a result, they seem compelled to display their liberalism openly, often by going so far as to remember the first times they spoke to or even touched a black. Tom Wicker, A Time to Die Quadrangle Books (Hardcover, 342 pages) - Only hours before state police were given the go-ahead to spray bullets across Attica Prison's D yard. New York Times columnist Tom Wicker, in his capacity as one of 24 "neutral observers" called to Attica at the start of the rebellion, was on the phone with Nelson Rockefeller, trying to convince the former governor that only his presence at Attica could prevent the bloodbath that everyone except the inmates knew was coming. Mr. Rockefeller never made it to Attica that day or the next, because he believed a personal appearance would hurt, rather than help matters. Despite documentary evidence that there was "indiscriminate firing in congested areas" by the invading force and an almost total absence of medical preparations to help inmates who were certain to be seriously wounded during the attack, Mr. Wicker refuses to believe to this day, that Mr. Rockefeller was so callous of the value of human life that he did not care who might die at Attica. In his study of the Attica rebellion, A Time To Die, Wicker theorizes that its bloody finale was inevitable, because to the Rockefellers of the world, "those institutions, processes and arrangements by which humans had sought to order their affairs had become, finally, more important than the people who had erected them and sought to live by them." The slaughter of 39 men, he writes, was less the fault of our system of government than the logical result of Man's "profound instinct to establish and maintain, at all costs, an order of things." Throughout A Time To Die, Wicker tries to zero in on why the need for order has become so important, if not intrinsic to American life. But at book's end, he is still trying to figure out why a system he believes is basically sound and well-meaning, and whose people are innately decent is constantly stumbling over its own inequities and his own which dominates the book's 15 — - - the reader that A Time To Die may be little more than a device Wicker uses to come clean. Despite these drawbacks A Time To Die does have some excellent sections that make it one of the more interesting, if not important new works around. Wicker's descriptions of the interaction among members of the observer committee are particularly insightful, especially the way he analyzes how their differing value systems, temperaments, constituencies, definitions of responsibility, and even ways of dressing are brought to bear on each crisis. Equally intriguing is the way he illustrates the classic dilemna of the detached journalist turned involved-up-to-my-neck participant. The book is also replete with important information their history, sociology, about the nation's prisons failure, etc. Finally, on the informational level, Wicker's blow-by-blow account of the entire rebellion, particularly his lucid description of the retaking of D yard, is something everyone should read so they will know, at least factually, that the state policemen invaded the prison as if they were reliving the Invasion of Normandy. What then, is so bothersome about Tom Wicker's A Time To Die ? Perhaps it is the aforementioned ambivalence, the way Wicker walks a tightrope between liberal pragmatism and moral necessity. Despite a genuine sympathy for the inmates, his open-mindedness, and his sensitivity to blacks and underdogs of any sort ("Rascism, its consequences and its endurance in so many forms .. had been the central public concern of Tom Wicker's life . . . There had been no moment in his adult professional life when the race question had not been prominent in his mind and work"), when the big whistle blows, Wicker remains a moderate, a man with, though not in the Rockefeller sense, a "profound instinct to establish and maintain, at all costs, an order of things." Just as he cannot totally condemn Nelson Rockefeller for his refusal to come to Attica, Wicker sidesteps the heavier questions of what kinds of radical changes are and” convinces . Although Wicker tells us his greatest single dilemna at Attica was finding a way, at any cost, to preserve human life amidst this need for order, it is another search for — why the inmates of Attica felt compelled to rebel and what kinds of massive changes are needed to prevent these men from going to prison in die first place. Perhaps it is Wicker's own confusion about himself the very act of writing the book seems intended as a process that will enable him to discover things about himself that prevents him from spouting anything more conclusive than conventional, "bleeding heart rhetoric - brutalities. order Our Weekly Reader \ chapters. At first glance. Wicker seems to have built his book with a tripod construction. There is a constant between a blow-by-blow chronology of the rebellion, or the interaction within and among the inmates, observers, prison and state officials during the fatal week, pages of statistics and facts about American prisons, and flashbacks to Wicker's past. But this final level ultimately dominates the other two to such as extent that we wind up reading an autobiographical, third-person confessional of one man's ordeal that would more aptly be titled Tom Wicker's Greatest Crisis of The Confessions of a Southern Liberal. Wicker's use of the third person, whether intended for modesty or to distance his personal role from a tragedy of universal proportions, falls flat on its face. Where Nprman Mailer so skillfully used this device in The Armies of the Night to achieve a sense of irony, political effect and needed to eliminate the unequal justice he has battled against durintpatf of his professional life and has now No exception to the rule. Wicker provides us with vivid glimpses of his childhood and adolescence in Hamlet, North Carolina. He carefully describes how the first time he shook hands with a black (at age 19, while in college) "set the face of his life away from the South." His realization at Attica that "nothing racial stood between him and the inmates," we learn, was reached only after one of them called him "brother." While often fascinating in themselves, the value of these flashbacks as clues to Wicker's ambivalent morality is as questionable as their relevance to the problem at hand — witnessed firsthand. Attica remaTns, to the end, a profound human failure in Wicker's words, "a "failure of understanding, of courage, of intelligence, above all a failure of the human spirit." In this context, his use of Attica as a cover story to describe his own personal failure is outrageous because the word Attica has become synonymous, at least in less moderate people's minds, with the failure of systems and institutions. That reasonable men could not, by reasonable acts, personally prevent the 43 deaths only bears this out. —Larry Kraftowitz — ••••••••••••».a m j HAIRSTYLING j Joe s Theatre Barber : 105S Ksnmor* Ava.

Coco in 'The Wild P rty' ’tin • In some respects, the Hollywood of the 1920's and 30's was one huge, never-ending party. Screenwriters and the stars they helped create were pulling down salaries ranging into the thousands per week even at the height of the Depression (or, perhaps, especially at its height nickel matinees were among the very few luxuries jobless families still allowed which themselves), and the tyrannical producers encouraged their nouveau riche proteges to wear or drink up every penny of it in generally successful efforts to foster dependencies tighter than the legal — loopholes permitting contract-breaking. Many of the biggest movie stars and their tenacious hangers-on consequently lived like there was no tomorrow and fickle fans always had the power to make that unexpressed fear into an impoverishing — its But The Wild Party, with sentimental, almost loving treatment of Jolly, his mistress Queenie (Raquel Welch, whose often-expressed confidence in her ability to play "serious" roles is not assorted exactly contagious), and surrounding weirdoes, is no less a failure. We are never quite sure of which values are being attacked and which celebrated, a difficulty due less to ambivalence than to ineptitude; the feelings with which we are left are directed primarily against James Ivory and his cohorts. reality. In The Wild Party, director James Ivory and author Walter Marks have tried to recreate this era of thinly masked panic through what they apparently saw as an a full-scale all-encompassing metaphor Movieland bash which fills almost all of the film's two hours. Based very loosely on the career of Fatty Arbuckle, the silent-film comedian whose star status dissolved in the wake of sexual scandal, the film's conception is extremely apt; but its biggest problem is simply that the huge party thrown by Jully Grimm (James Coco) to inaugurate his comeback after the advent of the talkies seems to have been one of the most boring bombs in Hollywood — history. Tinsel trap Hollywood's cinematic self-analyses and few directors working in the United States, no matter how far they run from the land of tinsel itself, can fully escape its influence for even a foot of film must inevitably fall victim to one basic fallacy: moviemakers still use film to criticize film.

W.W. and the Dixie Dancekings All gummed up Walter Marks' screenplay, based on an epic poem by Joseph Moncure March (who becomes Jolly's Vale-educated co-writer and friend in the film, an observer similar to Nick Carraway in last year's equally awful The Great Gatsby ), is stilted and phony, as are his bubble-gummy songs. Raquel Welch's ex-burlesque star Queenie, "the kind for whom men sell their souls," personality and, as far as anyone can tell, no mind. Men might conceivably be tempted to offer up their bodies to her, but she would have no idea of what to do with anything else.

Officials from the Allentown Village Society postponed the scheduled 10 a m. opening until noon, and nearly 25,000 onlookers paraded past the 400 exhibitions under the most threatening of skies. If local artists were mildly discouraged by Saturday's turnout, they had little to complain about Sunday with over 150,000 visitors jamming Delaware and its adjoining streets to view the paintings, photographs, wood crafts and numerous other exhibits. Indeed, the sidewalk strollers often found it difficult to steal a gaze at the handicrafts as the crowds enveloped the artists and their work.

This year, under the artistic direction of Robin Phillips, the Festival Theatre company will perform four \plays by Shakespeare in addition to one play each by George' Bernard Shaw, Berthold Brecht, and Arthur Miller. Included on the list are Twelfth Night, Two Gentlemen of Verona, Measure for Measure, The Comedy of Errors, The Crucible, Saint Joan, and Trumpets and Drums.

Literary critics have been somewhat suspicious of Measure for Measure, arguing that the language in the second half of the play does not quite flow like the poetry in the first half. This incongruity has led them to question whether Shakespeare wrote the play alone or with a little help from his friends. Indeed, even to the average playgoer, the language, the punning, and the story do not live up to plays like The Tempest, Comedy of Errors, or A Midsummer Night's Dream. One gets the feeling that even if Shakespeare did write the entire play, he wasn't in a very clever This Canada Theatre is famous for its thrust stage, a pillared, porticoed structure designed in 1953 by Tanya Moiseiwitsch and Tyrone Guthrie. The stage is a modern adaptation of the Elizabethan model with a balcony, trapdoors, seven acting levels and nine major entrances. The Avon Theatre, Stratford, Ontario is 140 miles from Buffalo by car. Or, if you don't care to drive, the Norton Hall Ticket Office is sponsoring two weekend trips to Stratford in July and August which include tickets to four plays, transportation, and accommodations for two nights (meals are extra), all for approximately $50.

The Duke of Vienna wants the city's laws more strictly enforced so he hands over the government to his Deputy, Angelo, and pretends to go abroad. He reamins in the city, though, disguised as a to observe Angelo's friar, administration of "justice." Meanwhile, Angelo decides to revive a long-neglected statute on lechery and as a result, Claudio is sentenced to be executed for sleeping with Juliet and getting her pregnant. Claudio's sister, Isabella, who is taking her vows to become a nun, entreats Angelo for hypocrisy mercy. But to save work was if they really shined, and believe me, they fell quite short of the mark. There was just too much yelling and not enough acting. If anyone deserves praise, it's Martha Henry for her virginal sincerity as Isabella. Measure for Measure simply does not measure up to Shakespeare's standards. But chances are this is the only lemon of the season. Make plans to go to Stratford. Your luck will undoubtedly be better. Angelo will only agree Claudio's life if his sister Xavieras business only R-rated, harmless fluff by Mike McGuire Spectrum Arts Staff My Pleasure Is My Business, featuring Happy Hooker Xaviera Hollander in her first film role and now playing at Amherst's Evans Theater (Evans Road at Sheridan Drive), is a light, frothy sex farce that is a perfect way to spend a afternoon. The film begins with a U.S. Senator ordering movie queen and sex symbol Gabrielle (Ms. Hollander) out of the country for consorting with his son-in-law, who "is going to be President." Approximately twenty countries refuse to let the chartered jet containing Gabrielle land, the only words being discernible in each case being "too sexy." lazy Nonsensuous She finally lands in the Principality of Gestalt (get it, Psych majors?) where a corrupt government hopes to use her to get the people's attentions off them. From the moment she lands in Gestalt, all pretensions at a serious movie or at porn are dropped, and the prevailing mood becomes one of a Keystone Kops movie. Gabrielle is chased around by detectives in trenchcoats trying to get incriminating information (i.e., if she was engaged in prostitution, which in the movie she isn't). Whether the detective is on foot, in a car, or on a bicycle, he will always manage to run into another detective and/or corrupt politician and let Gabrielle get away. Predictably, since many of the sight-gags were inspired by television's old "Laugh-In," the forces of the government end up throwing pies at each other. Not so predictably, in the one chase where the bad guys (the cops and politicians) seem to have a chance, they are finally fouled up by getting caught at a "Llama Crossing," where a llama is led across the road by a gril dressed, of course, in a bikini. Persona-fied everyone has a Being an exercise in different, clearly definable national accent in Gestalt. And occasionally, a single person will change accents halfway through, as if the accent were a mask that could be changed at will. A good part of the movie is spent following Gabrielle around at a party thrown for sexually "kinky" people by a man on the run masquerading as an Italian film director named Frederico (any guesses?). The cast of characters there includes a frustrated sex therapist taking notes (continually, even when she is dunked in the pool), a midget shooting whipped cream under ladies' dresses, two : | NOWI Brought to You in ...

The Ketter administration has once again shown its contempt for the students and faculty of this University. By ignoring the verdict of his own hand-picked court in the case of the students arrested on April 25th, he has shown that he has no respect for his own rules' regarding the maintenance of public order. The hearing results were tossed aside when they didn’t rubber stamp Ketter’s decisions. Regardless of one’s opinions as to the decency of the April 25th demonstration and the subsequent arrests, both students and faculty should be aware of the fact that Ketter will do as he pleases regardless of the opinions of the students and faculty. The Supreme Court of the United States ruled recently that high school students are entitled to certain rights regarding suspension. Aren’t university students entitled to the same rights?

For years men have said that only a stake, through the that, or heart could keep him from striving for the White House Rockefeller on the Reagan to and dye supply. off his hair Next cutting other side, he still looks like a youngster. Certainly he has the youngest tongue in town. Welcome back, Hubert. You should have made it one of those times. You are not the Harold Stassen of our presidential races, a joke on the campaign. You are the Norman Thomas, an honor to it. You will give it some badly needed class. Sarge Shriver, too. It was dead certain he would run. Why? Because he ran for vice president last time. The principal qualification for running in a presidential campaign is having run in a presidential campaign or having competed hotly for it. Shriver’s brother-in-law thq fact began in 1960 with only one recommendation as president that he ran for the vice presidential nomination four years earlier. Muskie got his start that way, too. (We’ll be hearing from him again before this one is over.) The point is not just that repeaters keep repeating. Repeaters win. Franklin Roosevelt got his head start for 1932 by running as a vice presidential candidate in 1920 and by moving into A1 Smith’s slot as governor when Smith moved up to the presidential nomination in 1928. Nixon won the second time around. Almost every recent presidential candidate and winner had an earlier try in the national race. It has long been recognized that incumbent officeholders have an advantage. It is time to recognize a correlative category: the incumbent runner. Wallace is the principal incumbent runner this time. But we also have Jackson, Reagan, Rockefeller. Kennedy is an honorary incumbent, since people have already run him twice in their minds. Jimmy Carter may not have a chance this time; but how else is he to gain credentials for 1980? In order to run credibly you have to have run before. Every pre-election year about this time, people deplore the lack of new faces, fresh talent, and innovative approach. But pretty obviously the voters do not want untested goods. New people try to break in, but do not get far, at least the first time. The electorate wants to become and what better way familiar with anyone who would be president than the glare and heightened political temperature of a presidential — — — Democractic constitution? To the Editor. In The Spectrum of May 7, 1975, there appeared a letter from Kevin Crane, attacking my Guest Opinion of April 18 on the subject of the Constitution, which I would now like to answer. The problem with the Student Assembly was its lack of information on important issues; this turned it into a body which was largely ignored, by both students and the University. It had little, if any power to take action on its own, and when it did use this power, the results were usually rather violent; for example, the athletic freeze that was imposed last November. Mr. Crane, you refer to the fact that it was very to join the Student Assembly. The easy Constitutional Reform Comrtiittee agreed with you. In fact, it was so easy to join the Assembly, that it was very susceptible to being packed with proponents or opponents of certain issues. You claim to support a democratic Assembly. Well, the Assembly last year was nothing but an oligarchy, much less a democracy, composed of members of an elite group of clubs and “service” organizations. When it was convenient for them to increase their representation, they had people stand in the lobby of Norton and collect signatures. At least 80 percent of Assembly members last year did not know who they were representing; I daresay that they did not represent those people, but misused their franchise in representing no one but themselves. If you call that democracy, then I think that you would be very much at home in Spain. The Constitution is designed so that the members of the Senate will be free from political pressure once they are elected, so that they may more truly express the opinions for which they were elected. 1 also would take exception to your statement that less representatives always results in less democracy; I believe that it all depends upon the people that get elected. No matter how many members of the Assembly there were, they usually represented themselves, not the people that signed their petitions. The Task Forces will be the center of the new government, not the Senate. They will formulate legislation to be approved by the Senate, and budgets to be approved by the Financial Assembly. The Task Forces will be far more open than the Executive Committee, where most of this work was formerly done, and will provide almost unlimited opportunity for input. Mr. Crane, you say that you don’t have the time to ‘futz around’ with elections or Task Forces in order to be ‘heard.’ When members of the Senate vote, they are not just representing their own voice, but also that of the people who elected them. If you want to join simply because you wish to have your own voice heard, then you are, in my opinion, unfit for the Senate. Lastly, 1 think that a decrease in club and interest group representation would be just fine and dandy, because they are overrepresented right now. When I see six representatives from NYPIRG, five from CAC, and only eight commuters, in a school where the number of people in NYPIRG is only around 65, the number of people in CAC is 2000, and the number of commuters is approximately 8500, I say that clubs and interest groups are overrepresented. Are you a member of a club or interest group, Mr. Crane?? — race? * , ' Cl • <■ Gallup polls showed significant pre-nomination support for only only five or six men in each party over the last third of a century 109 people were given over 1 percent support in polls, from either party, since 1936. And over 60 percent of the Republicans ever some as many as six or seven times. The mentioned were repeaters percentage of Democrats was lower because Franklin Roosevelt held on to the presidency for so long without serious opposition in his party. So even the lack of repeaters proves, in this case, s prejudice against brand-new faces in a race for the top. — — The American electorate is very conservative it regularly returns over 90 percent of its congressional people to office. It does not tire of political faces as quickly as newsmen do. The people are not even tired, yet, of Hubert. — Bert Black Big City Skyline Hamburger art To the Editor In a year in which virtually all student groups have been working with severely limited budgets, we wish to speak out on what we regard as an incredibly inappropriate use of student funds. We are referring to. the “light sculpture” on display in Quarry Lot of UB campus this week. This particular piece of “art” seems to us to be of little or no value to all but a handful of students. Particularly when the expense of such a “project” is taken into account ($840.00). This is the type of display seen when hamburger joints open up. Although we realize the value of artistic endeavors, we feel such expenditures should come under scrutiny as close as that applied to other student activities. If pressures and guidelines have to be applied to some student groups they should be applied with equal intensity to all groups including those responsible for this “display.” We hope in the future those responsible will direct their efforts towards more appropriate and less expensive works of art. Carol I. Block David Shapiro Arthur Lalonde Jr Andrew Harrington Dennis Delia Healthy minds and bodies To the Editor. Education should not stop at the academic level. Athletic programs, both inter-collegiate and intra-mural, have great value to any well-rounded educational institution. Let me quote from the philosophy of UB “Our society and its technology change so rapidly that constrictive education will not prepare students to the fullest possible extent, for the 40 or more years of creative individual effort before them. Undergraduate education must be designed to lift students from the confines, of a narrow vision to reach full potential. “Students are urged to make themselves familiar with the various educational options offered and take advantage of the opportunities provided to make the experience of higher education one of the most exciting, most meaningful, and most thorough of human experiences.” If we neglect our physical selves, it gives an unbalance to our education. To create and maintain this balance, we need full and extensive inter-collegiate and intramural programs.

Yet, with several spectacular wins a year ago, the ranking of the nation’s twentieth best team currently belongs to the State University at Buffalo. The University of Kentucky Wildcats, which finished second in the nation in basketball to UCLA, dispatched its highly touted wrestling squad to Buffalo last year and came away a loser. Big bullies The situation was likewise for Lockhaven and Clarion State, two of the perennial bullies on the Eastern Collegiate Wrestling circuit. Though Buffalo’s big three of Young, Wright and Faddoul have departed through either graduation or expiration of eligibility, Michael’s ten returning lettermen, including Junior Bruce Hadsell and Ron Parker and Senior Eric Drasgow, are expected to respond to what may be the strongest schedule in Buffalo’s wrestling history. In addition to Penn State and University of Pittsburgh, probably the two strongest teams in the East, Michael has scheduled a dual home match with the University of Oklahoma, undoubtedly one of the best schools in the West and, more often than not, a member of the top ten wrestling schools in the United States. Seemingly, Oklahoma will be an overwhelming favorite to beat the Bulls, but Buffalo fans who see the match in Clark Gymnasium this autumn may see one of the collegiate upsets of the year. Because on that night, as Coach Michael will readily attest, the Wrestling Bulls are “going to take and creative architect of a remarkably sound varsity wrestling program. Since his relocation at Buffalo following a highly successful coaching career at Coming Community College, Michael has apparently followed his own advice and “taken care of business.” Without benefit of scholarships or other financial subsidies, Michael has brought a plethora of exceptionally fine student-wrestlers to the Buffalo campus and, over the past five years, compiled an care of bus-i-ness.” eye-opening 81 wins, 12 losses, 3 ties record. ) Video electro-acoustics workshops , Media Study, 3325 Bailey Avenue, will offer two workshops this summer in video and electro-acoustics, limited to IS participants apiece.

Friday, 13 June 1975 Extended families Vietnamese refugees housed at Niagara U. by Don Eisenmann Contributing Editor The first 13 of an expected 32 Vietnamese refugees have arrived in Western New York and are temporarily residing at Niagara University. The remaining 19 are slated to arrive within two weeks and live in Niagara’s Timon Hall until permanent housing and jobs can be found. The 32 refugees are the extended families of two young Vietnamese priests who have been living in Buffalo for the past two years. Father Dominic Luong teaches in the Buffalo Diocese and is stationed at St. Mark’s in Niagara Falls. Father James Linh is currently studying at Canisius College. When the two priests discovered that their families had escaped from Saigon and were at Camp Pendclton in California, they began to search for ways to bring them to Buffalo. - A buffer They eventually contacted Catholic Charities, which operates through the Catholic Relief Service as the resettlement agency for this area. Rev. Henry 1. Gugino, associate director of Catholic Charities, explained that they first had to find sponsors for the refugees and that Niagara University agreed to house the people for about two months. “The sponsors act as an intermediate buffer between now and a time when the refugee families can become adapted to our language and culture,” Rev. Gugino said. They do not assume legal financial responsibility for the refugees but they do help fill their immediate needs for clothing and shelter and give them community assistance and guidance so they don’t become welfare burdens. “The University will be a staging area to help prepare them for resettlement, find them homes and jobs and help them overcome the language barrier,” said Father Gugino. Job offers All of the refugees come from Saigon and most are former employees of the government, which may make it difficult to find employment. However, Rev. Gugino said there have already been several job offers, including a bank clerk and freight department worker at a local factory. About 7 or 8 jobs will be needed. It’s going to take an effort to find them jobs. It won’t be easy, but we hope not too difficult,” said Rev. Gugino. Eight families and St. John’s parish in Lockport are sponsoring the refugees. Father Gugino feels the refugees have been well received and “depending on the employment and housing possibilities in the Western New York area, there will probably be more refugees brought here.” Are they happy? The first refugees to arrive were four Vietnamese children Hieu, 8; Anh, 10; Thuc, 11; and Thanh, 13 and their older cousin, Nguyen Nghia. Tom Hohensee, a spokesperson for Niagara University, said that although the children’s parents did not escape from Vietnam, and in all probability, they will never see them again, they appear to be happy. But he added, “This country is so different, it is hard to imagine how they feel.” Mr. Hohensee added that once the rest of the refugees arrive, they will begin English classes. — He also pointed out that while there hasn’t been any negative response, there hasn’t been any overwhelming welcome either. Niagara University, he said, has started a “Vietnam Resettlement Fund,” and is asking that cash donations be sent directly to the University. �� CLASSIFIED AO INFORMATION ADS MAY be placad In Tha Spectrum office weekdays 12 a.m.-S p.m. The deadline for Friday's papar Is Tuesday at 5 p.m. THE OFFICE Is located In 355 Norton Hall, SUNV/Buffalo, 3435 Main Street, Buffalo, New YorkT4214.

Mr. Flowers originally told the prosecution Monday that Shango had ordered the “execution” of Attica inmates Kenneth Hess and Barry Schwartz during the prison uprising in 1971. However, under cross-examination Tuesday, Mr. Flowers said Shango made no mention of an “execution” when he met him on the way to D Block the day the two inmates died, but that Shango apparently expressed concern over an injury to Schwartz’s arm. The defense began its questioning by tracing the history of the state investigation into statements made by Mr. Flowers since November 1971. During that time, Mr. Flowers was confined to a segregation unit in Attica prison and was questioned on a daily basis, Econ. 303-Y 4 Cr.

Mr. Flowers then told the defense that he related information to defense committee member Linda Borus in the fall, 1974, which contradicted previous remarks made to state investigators. He told the court that he was called into D Block during the uprising to treat a cut on Schwartz’s arm when he (Flowers) ran into Shango in the hallway. In addition to voicing concern over Schwartz’s injury, Shango warned his fellow inmates to stay away from D Block. Mr. Flowers testified that Shango did not mention an “execution” at that time. The defense also cited testimony which Mr. Flowers gave in Wade hearings in February, when prosecution witnesses were called to positively identify the defendants. At that time, Mr. Flowers once again said he “never heard of an execution.” When Mr. Flowers was later re-examined by the prosecution, he told the court Shango had indeed Upon a- further ordered an “execution.” cross-examination by the defense,, however, he claimed the statements made to Ms. Borus and at the Wade hearing were true.

The projected funding cut-off is the result of increased* budget cutbacks and personnel layoffs mandated by the State Legislature :earlier this year, said director of Housing Madison Boyce. There is a good chance, however, that the off-campus housing service will be bailed out of its financial difficulties by the Scholastic Housing Co. Inc., a division of Sub-Board, according to Mr. Boyce and Executive Director of Sub-Board Tom Van Nortwick. A meeting between Mr. Boyce and Mr. Van Nortwick took place last April to discuss the possible transition of authority. Mr. Van Nortwick, who serves Sub Board primarily in an advisory capacity, expressed Sub-Board’s concern for the possible elimination of this student service. “We personally felt that this kind of service should be provided, and that Scholastic Housing Co. might be an adequate vehicle to assume the responsibility if the state can’t,” he said. Resolutions Mr. Van Nortwick presented the idea of taking over off-campus housing to the Scholastic Housing Council on May 1st. A resolution was passed stating that the Scholastic Housing would “pursue the concept of taking over the activity of off-campus housing service.” A second resolution establishing a committee to undertake the investigation was also passed. Mr. Van Nortwick estimated that the off-campus housing service would cost between $7000 and $10,000 annually. The bulk of the expense would be. used to provide a salary for one full-time employee, and the rest would be spent on miscellaneous supplies, he said! As an alternative plan, Mr. Van Nortwick is' investigating the possibility of a current Sub Board employee running the service on a part-time basis. This mighfxut the expense down to as little as $3000 per year, % Mr. Van Nortwick said. •„ = / Optimism V' :S N o The idea was presented to the Sub Board Board of Directors on May 15th, and a resolution was, passed expressing full support of the Scholastic Housing Co.’s “investigation of whether or not it is feasible to handle such a project.” Another meeting between Mr. Boyce and Mr. Van Nortwick is scheduled for sometime this week. The two will discuss what is involved in running the housing service, and Mr. Van Nortwick is hopeful that he can abetter determine the feasibility of implementing his alternative plan for staffing the office. Both sides admit that nothing is certain yet, but Mr. Boyce is optimistic that one way or another, “there will be an orderly transition of authority.” Mr. Boyce hopes there will be no interruption of off-campus housing services. ' Law School WHATS OUR BAG? SB A invalidates Opinion constitution and elections ‘ by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor The Student Bar Association (SBA) has directed members of the. Opinion, the Law School student newspaper, to hold new editorial elections next fall before October 1; Elections held earlier this year, in which Editor-in-Chief David Gerlnger and Senior Editor Ray Bowie were re-elected, were declared invalid by a vote of 9-3-2, The SBA also nullified the Opinion's new constitution which was adopted in January. In both cases, SBA members objected to the absence of “a reasonable quorum” at Opinion elections, and the alleged exclusion of several staff members from participation in the voting. The SBA action came in a meeting at the end of the spring semester. An ad hoc committee, appointed by SBA President Rosemary Roberts in early April, presented the results of its two-month study of allegations against the Opinion and its editors before the vote was taken. The committee held an open hearing May 6 where written allegations solicited from the student body were presented to both the Opinion editorial board and interested students. A hostile relationship hostile extremely “An relationship” exists between the Opinion and the SBA and the student body which “seriously threatened the viability of a law student newspaper in its present form,” committee member Doren Goldstone said. Several of the allegations addressed in the open hearing and the committee’s report were found to be unjustified, and the actions of the Opinion's editors to sound editorial be “within These included discretion.” requirements about complaints for submission and editing of articles and refusal to print a column under a collective, by-line the article without labeling “commentary.” “The committee feels that the decisions made by the Opinion with respect to [certain] articles were within proper editorial discretion, and not actionable by the SBA,” Mr. Goldstone said. have appeared in the Opinion" attacking decisions made by the SB A. Mr. Goldstone reported that much despite conflicting the testimony,” committee concluded that the allegation was not Committee supported. members believed that at the time of the first editorial, Mr. Bowie was unaware of Ms. Robert’s candidacy, and did not intend to run for office, Mr. Goldstone told the SBA. The SBA only acted on the the allegations concerning Opinion's editorial election and the adoption of a new Opinion constitution. The re-election of Mr.Geringer as Editor-In-Chief and Mr. Bowie as Senior Editor involved only three people: David Geringer, Ray Bowie, and Opinion staff member Robin Skinner, Mr. Goldstone said. The new constitution was accepted at a meeting with only six people in attendance. The guidelines set by the Opinion for determining who was a “general staff’ member, and thus eligible to vote, discouraged rather than encouraged student participation in the paper and the voting, said Mr. Goldstone. But even under these guidelines, more staff members were .eligible to vote than the few who participated in the elections. Thus, a quorum (two-thirds of those eligible to vote, according to the old Opinion constitution) would have consisted of more than three or even six. Even Ms. Skinner wasn’t even eligible to vote, he said. At this point, Mr. Geringer interjected, ‘This quorum thing is something you people just made up,” explaining that he did not interpret the constitution to mean that two-thirds of all those eligible were necessary, but simply two-thirds of those present. Goldstone contended, Mr. however, that “no reasonable quorum could have been met by two members voting,” and both elections were nullified. A resolution to have the SBA supervise the new elections and to determine who is “general staff’ was defeated. “ However, the resentment the allegations “needless hostility revealed between the student body and the Ofiiniqn editorial board,” he added. The committee recommended that the Opinion establish written guidelines for contributions. surrounding , Political relationship Another charge levied by Bert Slonim, a member of the National Lawyer’s Guild, dealt with “the political nature of the relationship between the Opinion and the SBA.” He felt this was manifested in an editorial, written by former Editor-in-Chief Ray Bowie, which ’ # -^ ant s ' r' W Jr -. Q avi( j Q er i nger ° praised former SBA President and Treasurer Don Lohr and Ed Zagajeski while attacking SBA members Rosemary Roberts and Paul Equale. “It was easily foreseeable at the time that Rosemary would run for president,” he contended. “Subsequently, Ray [Bowie] resigned as editor,” Mr. Slonim continued. “The Opinion issue which came out immediately before the election contained a one-and-a-half page endorsement of Ray Bowie and his ticket written by., Don Lohr and Ed Zagajeski. Bowie and his ticket lost the election, nevertheless but then Bowie assumed the new position of “Senior Editor” of the Opinion Mr. Slonim explained.

The bill was removed by Ronald Stafford, Chairperson of the Senate Committee on Higher Educations Despite" a -majority of Senate members favoringis the legislation, Mr- Rubinstein continued, the bill headed for defeat “unless ,we take very strong and drastic action to s%ve it.” SASU requested that individual students, student governments, and student newspapers send telegrams to Mr. Stafford’s office, urging him to replace the bill on the Senate’s agenda. Student Association (SA) President Michele Smith took this ! action earlier this week.' The bill was introduced May 12 by Senator Joseph Pisani (R-Westchester) at the request of SASU and the City University Student Senate (CSS). It has been previously brought up in the State Assembly by “Higher Education Committee Chairperson Irwin Landes, and according to SASU Communications Director Andy Hugos, has received broad support from legislative leaders, including Assembly speaker Stanley Steingut, Assembly Minority Leader Perry Duryea, Senate Majority Floor Leader William Conklin and Senate Minority Leader Manfred Ohrenstein. . Staten Island Senator John Marchi to Albany Senator Howard Nolan,” Mr. Hugos said. The legislation would permit a student representative to participate as a non-voting member of the City University Board of Higher Education, local SUNY councils, and community college boards Trustees, of trustees, as well as the SUNY Board of one student allows to bodies presently feach of these but excludes meetings, and observe its formal attend students from executive sessions, where important decisions are often discussed. Ray Glass, SASU Legislative Director, feels the present structure of these governing boards “does not adequately provide for meaningful representation of student opinions and perspectives in their deliberations.” “Because of students’ competence, knowledge of public institutions of higher education and their unique perspective,” he added, “this bill would improve the effectiveness and wisdom of the decisions of these bodies.” 1 , Input needed Mr. Glass argued that students contribute over $200 million annually in tuition and fees toward the operation of these institutions, and they should have “direct input” into these operations. Students already serve on the governing boards of over a dozen public colleges and universities, Mr. Hugos said. In Alabama, Governor Goerge Wallace mandated by Executive Order that the student government president of each campus be a pon-voting member of the campus governing board and five students sit on the Board of Trustees of Cornell University, he said. “The main lobbyists against the bill are SUNY Central, the college councils and the New York City University Board of Trustees,” Mr. Rubinstein added. The legislation would add the President of the Bipartisan support SUNY Student Assembly to the SUNY Board of “A majority of both parties in both the Senate Trustees, the Chairperson of the CSS to the New and the Senate Higher Education Committee is York City Board of Higher Education, and the co-sponsoring the bill, as well as 70 members of the individual campus student government presidents to State Assembly.

He said the success of the Ellicott Complex Sub Shop encouraged the opening of new snack locations. The Richmond cafeteria will be “a carbon copy” of the Red Jacket location, he said. He reported that a security system installed at the Ellicott Complex to protect the vending machines from vandalism has proven extremely effective. So continued on p«g* 13— �The Kennedy assasination Was history helped? Connally and spectator James Tague were all wounded duri those critical 5.6 seconds. The Warren Commission argued that the first bullet struck Kennedy and Coimally, the second missed the motorcade completely, hit a curb and sent a concrete splinter flying into Tague’s cheek, while the third* fatal bullet struck Kennedy in the head, literally blowing his brain apart. Editor’s note: The following is the first in a summer series exploring the John F. Kennedy assassination and the movement for a new investigation. Part I covers challenges to evidence used by the Warren Commission in its investigation of the by Curt K( ;hler and Chip Berlet Speeki to The Spectrum (CPS) When John F. Kennedy died in Dallas over 11 years ago, the world changed. Camelot was shattered, and in its place came the turmoil of the 60’s and the early 70’s: race riots, the nightmare of Vietnam, protests and counter-protests tearing the nation apart, still more assassinatipns, the Nixon presidency and Watergate. An increasing number of people, prodded by a group of dedicated, fanatical “conspiracy sometimes researchers,” have come to believe that history had some help that day. They reject the Warren Commission’s finding that Lee Harvey Oswald, alone and unassisted, shot President Kennedy to death. Instead they have argued that the Warren Commission, during its ten month investigation, succeeded only in offering a timid and flawed defense of suppositions formed in the hours immediately following the shooting, that Kennedy was indeed murdered as part of a well-planned conspiracy and that the murders still remain at large today. These claims are based, in part, upon analysis of photographic evidence which indicates the President may have been shot by from two to four gunmen and re-examination of medical evidence used by the Warren Commission to support the single assassin theory. Much of the controversy centers around a home movie of the assassination made by Abraham Zapruder, a Dallas dressmaker who captured the moments during which Kennedy died. By timing the film, speed investigators have established that the shots aimed at the Presidential motorcade were fired during a 5.6 second interval. Tests conducted by the commission on the rifle which many believe Oswald fired determined it was impossible to load and shoot the clumSy, single shot weapon more than three times during those 5.6 seconds. The Zapruder film consequently becomes crucial to any analysis of the chooting. If it could be proved that more than three shots were fired that day in Dallas, it would follow that someone other than Oswald fired upon the President. And if someone other than Oswald fired, it also follows that there was a conspiracy to kill Kennedy. — „ Flight of the superbollet President Kennedy, Texas Gov. John The first bullet, said the commission, struck the President fn the base of his neck, exited from his throat, slimmed into Connally’s back shattering his fifth rib, emerged from the Governor’s chest and passed through his right wrist, breaking at least one bone, and finally came to rest in Connally’s left thigh This bullet, often called the Superbullet, inflicted seven wounds, broke at least two bones, and was found in near perfect condition by a janitor on a stretcher in Parkland Hospital. The President of the American Academy of Forensic Science finds this thesis extremely doubtful. Dr. Robert J. doling told CPS, “It is to me inconceivable that the bullet in question could have passed through Kennedy and Conally and found in such a pristine condition.” Dr. Joling said if it were possible to weigh the lead fragments found in Kennedy and Connally and add them to the weight of the unscathed bullet, the total weight would exceed the normal weight of a single bullet. There are other reasons to label this lone bullet Superbullet. Examination of Kennedy’s shirt and jacket, the initial sketches and testimony of autopsy witnesses present at the autopsy have entered Superbullet the indicated the back inches below six Kennedy’s wound in the President’s throat from which the bullet allegedly exited. Since Oswald was firing from above Kennedy, this means the Superbullet must have turned in midair before striking the President, passed through him on an upward path, and then made a second, downward turn before striking Connally. The final autopsy sketches, however, show the initial entrance wound above the exit wound, where it would have to be to uphold the Superbullet theory. then be though,,, is According to Dr. Cyril Wecht, past 'by frame No.224.

But in testimony before the bullet travelling 1800 i« -2100 feet per that Warren Commission the doctors simply second simply does not hang'around t6 go,” it wants way to decidc’wliich long moved the hole up several inches.” .' Dr. Wecht has since described the said Dr. Joling, “one of the most Kennedy autopsy as incompetent, Kennedy thmst backwards? superficial, incomplete, The Zapruder film also shows that after that I have ever medical-legal autopsies Kennedy and Connally are initally hit, the seen.” Testimony of witnesses present during final shot strikes Kennedy in the head and the the autopsy indicated the Superbullet may snaps his upper torso backwards into bits of blood never, in fact, have exited from Kennedy’s arms of his wife, showering back after inflicting the initital wound. and brain backwards. Conspiracy theorists have argued if Secret Service agent Roy Kellcrman where described how one of the autopsy doctors Kennedy was hit from behind, to be his positioned, probed the bullet entrance wound as Oswald was supposed thrust, been forward. body would have Although Warren Commasion defenders explained that Kennedy’s backwards motion was a neuromuscular reaction to the destruction of his brain, critics have charged It is the finil proof that someone fired from the front of the motorcade.

The Spectrum Page five . �most oe Hopefully, the members of the Student Association (SA) out of Executive Committee have gotten all the silly some serious their system and are ready to get down to governing. When six representatives of the most powerful student body on campus level severe charges against its President and when people who should be working together begin working against themselves, that is a matter that can not be taken lightly. When those same representatives insist on resigning and later change their minds because they realize their differences are not too enormous to be resolved, their hastiness may further damage the credibility Of the student government in the eyes of the student body and destroy the unity so essential to bringing administrative policy-making out from behind closed doors. SA President Michele Smith was accused of acting unilaterally and too rashly in her attempts to handle several delicate issues, and perhaps, whether due to inexperience or simply poor judgment, those claims were justified. But two months in office is hardly enough time for six important members of the student government to become so convinced of the uselessness of reasonable compromise that their only recourse is to walk out on SA. Those who threatened to resign acted just as rashly, almost giving up before they really placed their cards on the table. Not only could a mass resignation have crippled SA at a time when the organization must fight to muster up all the support it can get, but it could have strengthened the notion of many that student government is obsolete. Fortunately, since there were no resignations in the end, we can stop thinking about what could have been and start discussing what will be. This year's SA administration seemed headed in the right direction, even if there were mistakes made. For one thing, the budgets were passed smoothly with a minimum of haggling. Executive members went out of their way to inform the students of what was going on, and for the first time in too long a time, SA put its name behind an important political cause. Certainly, if Executive Vice President Art Lalonde cannot do something to improve the Student Assembly (or the Student Senate as it is called under the new constitution), then nobody can. The most important thing now is that the Executive Committee stands together and learns to iron out its differences before any individual or small group acts in the name of the students. If the student voice is to be heard or heeded, students must first learn to reach an understanding among themselves before they take on the rest of the world. Before anyone else can respect SA, it must first respect itself. 'And the living's easy' The campus has taken on a new image these days. The once mechanical, nervous activity of the regular school year has given way to the blithe, carefree spirit of the lingering summer afternoon. While dogs of every shape and size bound across the Norton fountain area, and while the smell of roasted hot dogs lingers in the air, people concentrate on making their winter-worn minds and bodies healthy again.

Friday, b June IV/b . TRB A dozen years ago America hadn’t a doubt in the world. It walked buoyantly. It only wanted to show other nations how to do half so well. Then things began to crack. Oswald shot the president. Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy died. Racial conflict worsened, Vietnam deepened, inflation widened. Lyndon Johnson abdicated; riots hit the 1968 Democratic convention. There was Kent State, Jackson State, civil disobedience, racial riots, invasion of Cambodia, marches on Washington, Senate rejection of two Supreme Court appointees; McGovern tripped on his vice presidential choice and only 56 percent bothered to vote in the Nixon “landslide.” More inflation . That just started it. Americans were almost artlessly self-confident, 1963. In that year some 85 percent said they to up were “proud” of their governmental and political institutions (contrasted to 46 percent in the United Kingdom and only 30 percent in Mexico!) Polls (1964-1970) show the erosion that followed; trust that the Federal government does right “most of the time” fell from 62 percent in 1964 to 47 percent in 1970; belief that government is pretty much run “by a few big interests” rose from 29 percent to 49 percent; that officials “don’t seem to know what they are doing” from 27 percent to 44 percent. But the public still believed, poignantly enough, that officials are honest; only 28 percent thought that “quite a lot” were crooked and it was hardly changed in 1970 at 31 percent. So then, after Spiro Agnew’s plea of nolo contendere to a crime count, in the midst of Watergate, Senator Muskie’s Subcommittee on Intergovernmental Operations in 1973 hired Louis Harris to do a poll, a kind of extension of the earlier surveys that had been made by the Survey Research Center. Harris gave hjs conclusions and reported, in alarm, “Any objective analysis of such results can only conclude that a crisis of the most serious magnitude now exists in the responses and assessment of the people to their government.” Everybody knew it but it was startling, nevertheless. Alienation, the poll said, took many forms. “The rich get richer and the poor get poorer,” jumped from 26/to 55 percent 74 percent believed that “special interests get more from government than the people do.” Did any institutions get majority support from the public? Yes, medicine, and the local trash collection. To sum it up, a total of 41 percent of those queried felt a change in the form of government was needed (including about 15 percent who wanted a “big change”) and all of this before Nixon quit and Vietnam collapsed. President Ford would have an easier time at NATO, and Kissinger with Gromyko at Vienna, if the mood back home were different. Americans are present self-doubt naturally optimists; the The media-created is probably historically unique. the and the refugees knee-jerk jingoistic flap over exultation over the Mayaguez affair (followed immediately by self-examination and new doubts) seem expressions of a kind of psychic slide that has ... ... developed for a dozen years. It will pass, we have no doubt, before long! But in the meantime, to massage the cynicism, papers report a huge new land fraud in bribery by political large-scale Florida, American-based multi-nationals in half a dozen countries, and FBI memos (supposedly uncovered by the Rockefeller Commission) supporting charges that the CIA plotted with the Mafia to kill Fidel Castro in 1961. Recession and unemployment continue. This long slide in American self-confidence has had profound effects on one governmental Congress. A huge class of freshman institution stormed into Washington in 1974, sent by angry voters who wanted a shake-up. Meanwhile, in the Sick Sixties, John Gardner set up his Common Cause that provided a vehicle for popular discontent. It found itself aligned with freshmen Congressmen. Ralph Nader’s organization came, too, doing the kind of things that, in other countries, disciplined political parties do. If people distrust government, they are likely to turn to this kind of quasi-political group. Nearly everybody agrees that a stronger Congress is needed to balance a stronger president. There is no question that Congress has tried to reassert itself and that in the last year or so it has tinkered boldly with a lot of the established mechanisms. These changes are widely referred to as “reforms,” though I think it is too early to make a final judgement on them. The weakness of Congress is simple. It has 535 members and little cohesion. Some kind of discipline is needed if they are going to stand up to the executive, as they should; they need the benefit of responsible political parties, and they need strong leaders. At present there is a vacuum of leadership in Congress, institutional and personal. Speaker Joe Cannon “a hard, narrow old Boeotian” was thrown out by a band of insurgents in 1910 led by George Norris, and a kind of feudal baronies developed. system of committee Ultimately a bipartisan coalition of conservatives took over. Round about 1958, reapportionment, Southern realignment and erosion of the farm bloc helped establish a national Democratic majority. The engine of change was the liberal Democratic Study — — Group. Now Congress is moving into some new phase of its checkered existence, the outlines of which are unclear. There is a sense of urgency for the freshmen know they are here on sufferance and that voters back home are angry. The Democratic majority is trying to recapture lost territory, watch the White House, reform its budget, diffuse committees, and set up alternative mechanisms of control which are already tripping over each other. Rarely have things been so fluid. Weakening the committee structure, without creating alternative authority, may ultimately enhance the President’s power. Democrats have revived the Caucus a former paper organization that met only once or twice a year. It is too early to estimate these changes. One thing seems plain; to balance the enlarged presidency; the controlling majority of Congress must somehow make a grant of power to somebody who speaks for it a group or an individual. Maybe it will be to the Speaker, maybe to a steering committee. Neither amiable Senator Mansfield nor Rep. Albert seem the type either to accept the sword or to use it. - — �c jtei • «*• * ■ A* ■« •; d-- Our Weekly Reader Conversations with Kennedy by Benjamin Norton W.W. Bradlee, & Co., Inc. (Hardcover, 251 pages) 12 years after the fatal November day In Dallas, the JFK mystique still has a romantic appeal for so many of us who have come to regard the former president as’ a modern folk hero. In Conversations With Kennedy, Benjamin Bradlee recounts his personal experiences with John Kennedy, and in doing so, offers a glimpse of "a president off duty, a president 'trying to relax, a president in search of personal contact otherwise denied him by the burdens and isolation of Nearly his lonely gffice." Ben Bradlee, now the executive editor of The Washington Post, was Washington Bureau Chief of Newsweek magazine when he and his wife Tony first met the Kennedys in 1958. Despite the natural conflicts that arose between Bradlee's dual role as friend and journalist, the two pen remained intimate friends and off-the-record confidants until Kennedy s assassination in 1963. Bradlee writes this book with all the he skill of a professional journalist than a chpses to be a reporter rather more reads commentator, arid the book like straight dirtrier-table conversation than an analysis of their contact. For one thing, no romantic impressipns. of Kennedy are Shattered in this record. Jf anything, the book tends towards the gossiPV rather than revealing anything,new "and exciting. ; The president’ still emerges as a fim-lovihg, active person who loved to inject * bit 6f humor into the most serious national crjeii- Although Jack and Jackie independent are described as "remote and people" who were "not normally demonstrative," they were very warm in theiT dealings with fafnily and friends. What we see is B picture of a "regular guy," who could be petty and vain at back times, who was afflicted with painful troubles, and who enjoyed the comforts of his afistdcratic upbringing. Bradlee obviously enjoys recording Kennedy's liberal Pse o£ pjrofBne language, as If the public should be really shocked that a ■ - ' ' ° « •*' ’ 4- „ . * „ president's deleted. expletives have been not . Perhaps the most interesting angle to the book, and a subject to which Bradlee constantly returns, is the press and the presidency. Kennedy genuinely liked reporters. He knew about the politics of each newspaper and magazine and was most adept at guessing the cover stories of Newsweek or-Time a week in advance. As Bradlee notes, "At any time during the Kennedy campaign, a reporter could get Larry O'Brien, Ken O'Donnell, Ted Sorensen, Bobby, all of them, often for a drink, always for a bull session. During the Nixon campaign, it took an all-day siege to get a few mintues with the men around Nixon, and they made reporters feel like c lepers during those few minutes." Bradlee admits many times that he felt privileged' both personally and professionally to be allowed a direct line of communication with the 'president; However, he, often alludes to his uncertainties about where the responsibility to journalism left off and the loyailities to friendship began. To illustrate 0 this conflict, he presents the dramatic example of The Washington Post reporter Richard Harwood, assigned to cover Robert Kennedy's presidential campaign in LA.; who decides to remove the dying Kennedy's crushed head from his lap and call in the story to his office. Stating that he never wrote less than he knew about Kennedy, filing the good with the bad, Bradlee admits that the information he received often "tended to put him (Kennedy! and his policies in a favorable light." But he adds. If I was had, so be it; I doubt I will ever be so close to a political figure again." In the cases where he trusted to his reporter's instincts by filing stories not so favorable to the president, he sometimes became the target of verbal abuse and even temporary social estrangement. But the bonds of friendship won out in the end and there was always a warm reconciliation. of ■, The book also contains a collection all taken album-type photos, almost t farpHy,; outing. during, some Kennedy-Bradlee to our These photos definitely appeal C u o Conversations o ©c ■t with Kennedy 'V BENJAMIN C a C.

In particular, guitarist Ed King, probably the most distinctive(tjvough underplayed) of the three,’ has left at the expense of their old texture. With only two guitarists, the obligatory harmony lines were held to a minimum and the old "wall of sound," resulting from three intertwining guitar parts, was missing. The set they played, consisting mostly of material from the last two albums, was somewhat repetitious and not quite as interesting as the old stuff. "Gimme Three Steps," “I Ain't the One" and "Free Bird" were the only songs they did from their superior first album and on these, the band sounded slightly sloppy and perhaps even bored. Not so funny Singer Ron wan Zant, although he still sings like he used to, is beginning to take on an obnoxious stage personality, spending a lot of time between songs drinking and spitting on the stage. At several points he remarked how nice it smelled in the theater and asked for the audience to throw a little something up for him. When several joints handed by his feet, he picked them up and tossed them aside, then proceeded to talk about how hard it is to score. In a few of the newer songs, van Zant attempts to deliver messages on valid social issues but often ends up delivering messages on the poor quality of his lyrics. If you can listen carefully enought to "Saturday Night Special," "On the Hunt" and "Needle and Spoon" to hear the words (about guns, groupies and junk, respectively), you'll see what I mean. Other predictable titles from the new album included - confederate flag from behind the stage did not help rriatters much. Probably the best of the new songs they did was J.J. Gale's "Call Me .the Breeze" which showcased' guitarist Gary Rossington and was preceded by a few words from van Zant on how nice Buffalo is ("It's,not like New York."). For the most part, however, the music was c unimaginative, repetitious, and loud, and the aHing sound system didn't make things any better. What ready surprised me, however, was the audience people reaction (or lack of it) were not rushing the stage or getting violent, despite the singer's urgings to tear the place down. "Are you sure you feel allright?" van Zant queried, “You look sick." Oh well, maybe tastes are improving after all. In. all the pre-concert publicity, it was stressed that Skynyrd would play a long show at least 90 minutes because they couldn't the last time they were here. I'm sure that they did play that long and I didn't have a watch with me, but it seemed like they left the stage after about an hour and came back to do two lengthy encores.

The trick is telling them apart. At its worst, the film includes a character like Tod played by William Atherton. He's a Pretty, Bright, Yale graduate of the 1930's period who goes to Hollywood to try his luck! Every word that falls from his mouth is so where he's meant to sound smart empty and "precious" and pithy that it's painful watching as he looks up at us from below his shiny eyebrows. The problem with Atherton's portrayal of Tod is that he reduces without expanding. That is, he takes the depth out of the character in order to become typical or "universal," and then forgets to add any peculiar. individual features so as to make the character an interest!ng-to-watch cartoon; that is, one who comments on the stereotypes Tod's the bright Artist-Yalie, and that comes across but he really should be more (and less) than that.

The personalities of the women he portrays develop from thin air as the music swirls around your mind. This thoroughly enjoyable and professional album shows his unique understanding and taste. This new album, just like Journey, leaves much to be desired. The faults are basically the same. Synthesizers, and moogs just don't fit in well with such heavy orchestration; when the two are heard simultaneously, it just doesn't cut it. Wakeman's playing is fantastic. Although some of the riffs are reminiscent of Journey and King Henry, his massive battery of piano, organ, melletron, and moog provides an arsenal of auditory ammunition. Still, there are some lapses in his interpretive playing which result in murky imagesi Basically, this involves one long stew of shifting moods and themes in which you really have to stretch your imagination. Each cut is professionally set up and potentially good. The only problem is that none of the cuts interpret what they allegedly portray. "Merlin the Magician" could easily be the new theme song of Bozo the Clown, while "Sir Lancelot and the Black Knight" serves as King Kong meets Godzilla. Everything is blown ludicrously out of proportion. The vocals can hardly be called a melodic offering, and the lyrics are just sick; By Wart the King of Merlin Struck foot most far before us His birds and beasts supply our feast And his feasts our glomus chorus. Even the.few instrumental sections fly wildly in different directions. In this LP, Wakeman's keyboards become his castle, the orchestra and chorus his kingdom, and this music his message.

This is a letterabout the dogs on our campus. First let me point out that I am a dog owner and love dogs very much. This is why I write this letter. There is now a new leash law in effect on our campus. I believe that this is a good law. This law should not be looked at as if it is taking the dog’s freedom away, but that it is for their safety. Many times I have seen dogs killed when walking unleashed with their owners. They all of a sudden dash out in front of a car. Also this would stop the dogs from running away when they see another dog running lose. I believe dog owners would want this. But my main question is why do people bring their dogs to school in the first place? I don’t believe it is done for the dog’s benefit. The dog would probably stay home and sleep and like it much more. I think people do it to look cool or maybe it has grown into a status symbol to bring your dog to school. Much like show and tell in grade school. Why not leave the dog at home where it is safe and happy instead of bringing it to this crazy place, which is confusing enough for people, much less a dog. If people are afraid to leave their dog home, then maybe the school should set up day care centers for them. Maybe this could be funded by the SA since they spend money on every other stupid thing. Let’s begin to think about the dog and its feelings; leave it home or on a leash instead of letting it run around and possibly getting killed or hurt. Guest Opinion, Editor’s Note: Lares Tresjan has been doing migrant farm labor since 1943. Living in Dunkirk, New York, she is among the 3000 migrants who work in the North Collins, Silver Creek and Dunkirk area. by Lares Tresjan - June is a lighthearted month for the leisured and propertied, and in the world of the arts But in the sunken underlying real world of savage and godforsaken rural New York, a land whose solitude parallels that of the Argentine pampa, it is a fateful and guilty month. Throughout the vineyards and tomato and strawberry fields of the agricultural Empire State June is a time of stress and nervous overexcitement. New York State imperialist having been lavishly cared for, strawberries coddled, weeded, hoed, coaxed to maturity; having been worried over, irrigated, splashed with chemical fertilizers, fungicides, weed-killers, insect-killers are fast ripening on the vine. Masses of workers made avid for exhausting men, women, children work by a long violent dark winter of and chronic moneylessness unemployment, starvation, will soon be on hands and knees in the wet fields harvesting the state’s multimillion-dollar strawberry crop. In the melancholy labor camps of Chautauqua County . . and Cattaragus and Genessee and Erie ... and Wayne and Steuben counties the leaking gas, exposed wiring, defective space heaters are again in readiness to receive this year’s tens of thousands of new occupants: the contingents of gaunt and spectral men aged before their time, as well as the young without youth; all of them conjured from their unhappy homeland in Puerto Rico or along the southern Atlantic seaboard by rumor of a season’s livelihood. The workers will pay rent for mournful accommodations in tractor sheds and broken-down - — — — — John Dickey P.S. If someone can tell me why they really bring their dog to school with them, I would be happy to hear it. Let the nauga hide . ... To the Editor. A friend of mine recently informed me of a situation which exists in the Northeastern United States which has received absolutely no press coverage so far. Hunters throughout this part of the country have been mercilessly killing the nauga, and this poor animal is on the verge of extinction. The reason most hunters want the nauga is that it has a very valuable hide. They sell the hide to manufacturers who use the nauga hide to make furniture, among other things. This has been going on for several years but the press refuses to cover it and the government refuses to enact legislation to save this endangered species. We must act now or it will be too late. Save the ,, buses. Again sorely present but invisible will be this year’s army of unsmiling children with shrunken bodies. Children who accomplish a 12-hour work day at wages of approximately four dollars are the mainstay of the strawberry harvest in Chautaugua County and vicinity. What is the matter with New York State strawberries? apart, that is, from the child labor army that sustains them and the wretched and guilty circumstances underpropping their cultivation and that harvest? What is the matter with them is an all-time captan. Captan, soused in they are favorite poison “defoliant” unloosed by the thousand-gallonsful in the wild and criminal war against the land and people of Vietnam needs to be regarded with extreme mistrust. One should regulate one’s intake of this toxicological agent. As if strawberries were the only surprise category of agromilitary small arms in the local arsenal! Commencing late in June and at intervals thereafter New York State tomatoes will undergo systematic drenching with carbaryl (sevin); the state’s apples, on the other hand, are treated to a 60% arsenic solution. Grapes, all varieties, are embalmed in deathly parathion. Pesticide (and herbicide) residues, it should be noted, are everlasting, irrespective of what the agrochemical industry argues. That the homely though monstrous CBW (Chemical and Biological Warfare) practiced against farm workers in New York State and neighboring states has thus far escaped attention or outcry should surprise no one. Nobody keeps body counts in Chautaugua County. Nobody is doing research into accidental fatalies in the fields of Genessee County; much less, fatalities provoked by exposure God help to pesticide (and herbicide) residues or us! concentrates of these. Unconcern and contempt for the lives of productive workers is more or less the essence of American free enterprise. ... - — ,, nauga! Tickets at Amherst To the Editor Paige Miller “Now that you i’re not selling so many, maybe you could I try making them better” I would like to comment on UB’s sale of tickets for Campus Activities. I lived in Ellicoft and several times my friends and I came over an hour before a movie only to find that it was sold out. Why can’t tickets be sold somewhere on the Amherst Campus also? 1 called the Norton Ticket Office for tickets to the Dance Reperatory production and I was told to hurry over because they were going fast and only a few were left. I had classes in Ellicott that day and by the time I would have gotten there, they would have been gone. What is this bullshit? Would it be such a big problem to open a ticket office, say by the Bookstore — a central place? Cindy Cooper No look at Attica To the Editor In regards to your article entitled, “Students across the state remain oblivious to the Attica situation,” students elsewhere are, in fact, ‘unaware and unconcerned.’ Being over 400 miles away from Buffalo, the local news media does not concern itself much (perhaps this is the problem) with Attica news. Outlook occasionally uses articles from the Liberation News Service. However, these articles lack a local foundation to generate interest in our staff reporting or the student populous. Outlook has its own problems, though. Our entire staff is graduating with not even apathetic students to replace it. Robert Fisch Former Advertising Manager, Outlook Rockland Community College At least a sticker To the Editor. I lived on a floor in EUicott with 12 guys, five of which are various types of engineers. Their condescending attitude towards the social sciences in terms of job possibilities and “difficulty” of their courses (both true, but not enough to justify in any way that sort of attitude) is obviously the policy of the University. This is shown by the fact that if you go to Norton bookstore, there are stickers for cars, etc. with UB all over them, which would be fine except for the fact that there also are stickers for the UB School of Engineering, Nursing, Dentistry, Law and Pharmacy. What kind of double standard is this? What the hell makes these departments so hot anyway? If there can’t be a Psychology sticker (with a picture of Freud or a padded cell) or an Anthropology sticker (with a bone or a bushman) or an Economics sticker (with a dollar bill or picture of Ford’s favorite economist, Alfred E. Newman) or a Philosophy sticker (with the motto, “What Is Truth?” emblazoned on the front) you’d think at least there could be a Social Science’s sticker that says, Kiss my feet, I’m a Social Scientist, or UB School of Social Sciences. Seriously, this is definitely a case of hypocracy in the First Degree. I mean, if we aren’t going to get a job, the very least the University could do is compensate by giving us a sticker, right?

Along with such backwaters as Tonga, Gambia, Yemen and Barbados, the U.S. still clings to the feet and pounds of the English system. Metrication is the process of converting to the metric system, which is based on a single measurement that is either multiplied or divided by powers of ten. When conversion comes, it will drastically affect the way things are measured in the U.S. Distances will be measured in kilometers, weights .in grams and kilograms, temperatures in degrees Celsius and so on. - Humane struggle Groups fight to eliminate zoos In some cases the unnatural environment has led by Paul Feroe to animal sterility. In order to maintain exhibits, zoos have had to import more Und more animals, a Special to The Spectrum (CPS) Armed with a pitchfork, a crowbar and a knife, an outraged zookeeper caged himself in the monkey house of a Brooklyn zoo, smashed windows the monkeys and shouted, “the baby hippo died are sick the vets don’t come nobody cares.” The 23-year-old zookeeper was protesting the treatment of the zoo’s animals. For his efforts, he was sent to the hospital for observation and the broken windows were replaced. Since their beginning in the 19th century as upper class menageries, zoos have been the delight of many, but also, according to animal humane groups, the death and destruction of many once-noble - - — — animals. Instead of seeing animals as they actually exist, humane groups have argued, visitors find bored and crazed beasts who are limited to pacing back and forth In small cages, pulling out their own hair or staring vacantly between the bars of their home. While some zoos, like the renowned San Diego zoo, have achieved optimum conditions, most city zoos lack the space necessary to recreate natural habitats and settle for cages or small pens that do not provide exercise space, freedom or privacy for animals. j Guinea pigs In addition tb such living''-conditions, many animals are eventually used for laboratory research, designed to become “animal models of human disease,” charges the New York-based United Action for Animals. Sometimes zoos themselves become testing grounds. In ah incident known as the “London Zoo Catastrophe” a colony of a hundred male baboons was transported to a rockwork enclosure called “Monkey Hill.” In order to study mating habits and behavior, females were introduced on the The results were disasterous. Fighting among the males for possession of the females resulted in brutal injuries and death. Over a five year period, 61 of the males were killed, 2,1 of th’e.30 females were killed and only one young baboon survived of the 15 bred on the island. i * FSA... —continued from page task increasingly difficult as park areas disappear and the remaining animals come under protection by law. Another importing problem has been that 75 percent of all wild animals destined for pet shops, nearly 24 million a research institutes and zoos arrive dead, according to the Fund for year Animals. And importing exotic animals, such as cheetahs, monkeys and lions for pet purposes was banned in February, 1974. — — , Breeding ground To help fill the demand for animals by zoos, the National Zoological Park plans to set up a special farm in Virginia, divided into 35-acre sections, that will recreate nattira) animal habitats in the hopes of stimulating animal reprodufction. “Unless we breed them in captivity,” says Theodore Reed, director of the National Zoological Park, “zoos won’t have them.” A major road block to zoo-improvement is cost. The Indianapolis Zoo, which acquired three giraffes for $21,000 in 1968, had to pay $22,000 for just one giraffe in 1974. Chicago’s Lincoln Zoo, which buys 100,000 pounds of horsemeat a year is now paying 58 cents a pound. Humane societies, however, have said that better zoos are not the answer. “Cbndrtiohs at most zoos are abominable,” said a spokeswoman for the United Action for Animals, “but we’re not working to improve them; we want to see zoos eliminated.” An alternative to eliminating zoos is what Roger Caras, an expert on zoological parks, calls the “Zoo of the Future.” At these animal centers,” visitors could watch satellite TV lions moving through the African via jungle, or listen to the electronically-amplified heartbeat of an insect. Present technology, Caras said, would allow for of game parks around the world and monitoring TV special zoos constructed to emphasize natural environments. The system Caras envisions would be operated in conjunction with such institutions as natural history museums and botanical gardens. 4— much so, he said, that a Food determined that there would be a Service employee stocking one of demand for it.” The plan would the machines inadvertently set off entitle the student to lunch three the alarm, summoning Campus times a week in Norton Hall’s Security.

Now, a number of American companies with international markets have begun measuring things metrically, and Congress may be close to using its constitutional power over weights and measures to mandate a conversion nationwide One of the surest signs of change can be seen in the education bill passed by Congress and signed into law last fall, which specifically states that the use of the metric system in the U5. is “inevitable” and will “become the dominant system of weights and measures.” The bill authorized $10 million to help “prepare students to use the metric system of measurement.” Contrary to popular belief, this is not something we will decide whether to do or not,” said Rep. J J. Pickle (D-Tex.), a metrication supporter. “The change is already taking place.” There are now seven bills before the House and Senate calling for a conversion to the metric system over a rough timetable of ten years. The principal legislation, offered by Sen. Claibom Pell (D—R.I.), calls for the establishment of a National Metric Conversion Board which would plan and oversee U.S. conversion. A similar bill was defeated last year because of problems over how to pay the conversion costs of tradesmen and small businessmen, but the Pell bill includes provisions for their compensation and passage in this Congress is deemed likely by observers. Okay, who’s first? Those working with the plans for metrication feel that the building industry will be the first to convert. Great Britain and Canada, two fairly recent additions to the metric fold, keyed the start of their conversion programs in this area. “The building industry touches on so many aspects of the economic life of the country,” noted Charles Mahaffey, a building technologist for the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) who is working closely with the probelm of metric conversion. “There’s hardly anything you can talk about in the whole U.S. economy that doesn’t somehow relate to building,” said Mr. Mahaffey. “Because of its great cross-sectional value, (those favoring metrication) think that if they can tackle this problem, they can handle anything.” ■ Canada has set January 1, 1978 as the start of its formal conyersion to metric in the building industry, and testimony on the Pell bill revealed that some experts think the U.S. can match that date, since the toughest bugs have already been worked out by Canada, Great Britain and Australia. “All we have to do is take their program, polish it up and stick it on our end,” said Mr. Mahaffey. of skill” (pinball devices machines). He said the new center is a response to student requests. FSA Comptroller Charles Balkin reported that difficulties Mastering metrics have been encountered obtaining For the average American, however, the difficulty has been in tax-exempt status for FSA-owned learning the new system. For example, in a survey of home economists land in the Town of Amherst.

It’s no secret that after last season’s 8-17 record, Buffalo’s basketball future had seemingly no other direction to go except upwards, but, the truth of the matter is that Hutt, Head Coach Leo Richardson and Bob Case, Buffalo’s other assistant coach, have spent Buffalo’s assistant coach has, neatly filed in his desk, four signed letters-of-intent from some of the top junior college players available. Buffalo-bound are the following student-athletes: 6 foot, 2 inch guard from George Cooper Nassau Community College in New York City. Cooper averaged 21 points per game and was a first team Junior College All Star Regional selection. Eric Spence Spence, a 6 foot, 7 inch jumping jack from Sheridan Wyoming Community College, helped lead his team to the national Junior College Playoffs in Hutchinson, Kansas. Eric hit for over 17 points a game and averaged more than 13 rebounds per contest during the regular season. Sam Robinson Another prize recruit, Robinson, a 6 foot, 6 inch foward from Niagara Community College averaged more than IS points a game in leading his team to a 27-7 record. Sam, an excellent shooter, was ranked third in the nation in field goal percentage (60 percent) a year ago. Wayne Boyd A much coveted athlete, Boyd, a 6 foot, 6 inch forward from St. John’s College in Kansas, was named to the first team All-Regional Junior College squad. Boyd scored 16 points and averaged over 12 rebounds per contest playing against a very high level of junior college competition. — — — — The stars return In addition to the four Ju-co transfers, Hutt and Richardson are counting on the return of virtually the entire starting line-up of a year ago. Co-captains Gary Domzalski and Otis Horne both return for their senior years, while 6 foot, 5 inch Jeff Baker, 6 foot, 6 inch Mike Jones and 6 foot, 7 inch Sam Pellom have gained that extra year of valuable experience. Hutt, in fact, is extremely enthusiastic about Pellom’s potential and rates him one of the budding stars in Eastern Collegiate Basketball. “Pellom’s going to be one of the best in the East,” Hutt predicts. “As just a freshman and he never played Center before Sam averaged over 11 points a game, was our leading rebounder, and blocked almost 100 shots. He’s an intimidator.” Overall, it appears that this year’s edition of the Basketball Bulls has improved itself in overall size, added some much needed depth, and, according to Hutt, “there is more stability at the guard position.” What Buffalo has been unable to do, however, is to recruit a “tree;” that is, bring in a 6 foot 10 inch center who can dominate a game as well as intimidate the opposition. “We don’t have a tree,” muses Hutt in reference to this year’s recruits, “but we sure got a pretty good bunch of saplings.” — — an inordinate number of 70-hour work weeks in an attempt to upgrade the level of this University’s varsity basketball program. And with the returns of Buffalo’s basketball brain trust pouring in, it appears that students will be pleasantly surprised with the quality of this autumn’s team. Surprises “We’re not going to beat UCLA,” cautions Hutt, “but we think we can be competitive on the major college level.” The reason for Hull’s guarded optimism is that He wasn’t really that well known on this campus despite the fact that he had spent more than 20 years of his life as a coach, teacher and faculty head of a major department at the State University at Buffalo. “Unobstrusive” seems about the best word to describe him. Yet, when a heart attack struck Physical Education Department Chairman Ed Muto this spring, a lot of people who seemed not to notice him when he was there, began to make note of his absence. I write this not in a disparaging sense at all because I have a great deal of respect for Ed Muto who is presently convalescing in his Williamsville home. I simply wish to note that it is to Muto’s credit that he was able to effect so much in so quiet and so unobstrusive a manner. Those who know Muto very well as quiet, likeable, characterize him competent and very patient. The “patient” label seems especially — .

Jim started the season at his natural position, behind the plate, but since that spot was overcrowded, ha moved to the outfield. .His bat got hot once the team came back up north, and he was an especially devastating hitter in the last ten games of the season. Mary's slugging percentage of .640 was also the best on the club, which finished a disappointing season at 14-22. Ed Muto for 15 years appropriate because (1956-1970) Ed Muto seemed quite content to coach the Buffalo freshman and junior-varsity basketball teams while most of the press ink and limelight went to Head Varsity Coach Leonard Serfustini. Even so, though Muto did his job The Spectrum Friday, 6 June 1975 . quietly, he did it well. His 15-year coaching record with freshman and junior varsity teams was a commendable 184 wins and only 91 losses, a winning percentage of .677. Evidently, patience had its reward. For after a 17-year apprenticeship, Muto was officially given the head basketball coaching job in 1970, when it became apparent that Dr. Serfustini would be unable to continue as head mentor. By the 1972-73 season, Muto had succeeded in remolding a fragmented team into a fundamentally cohesive unit. Thai year, Muto guided the basketball Bulls to a 16-8 record and narrowly missed a bid to the prestigious National Invitational Tournament in New York City. I enjoyed going to the Bulls home games during the 1972-73 basketball season. I had more than a few chuckles watching 5 foot, 6 inch Ed Muto standing toe-to-toe with his 6 foot, 5 inch players. But there was nothing comical about the way Muto ran the team. It was a tight ship all the way around. I think it was during that season that my respect for Coach Muto was magnified. I saw a coach relating to his players as adult men, and I saw the positive way his team responded to that approach. I know that, undoubtedly, along the way, there must have been players who did not personally like Ed Muto. But, I have yet to find an individual who did not respect the man. And so, when Coach Muto resigned as basketball coach following the highly-successful 1972-73, and assumed the full-time position of director of Men’s Physical Education, somehow in the great scheme of things, it seemed like the right thing to do. From what I understand, Ed Muto is slowly recovering and will be returning to the University in mid-autumn. If it is possible that the concern of a University community and the respect of his fellow peers can somehow facilitate a faster recovery, then Ed Muto will be back even sooner. �Canisius Griffins on NCAA probation CLASSIFIED AD INFORMATION Campus Editor THE OFFICE is located in 355 Norton Hall, SUNY/Buffalo, 3435 Main Street, Buffalo, New York 14214. —- The Canisius College basketball team was placed on two-year probation last Thursday by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). The penalty will ban the Canisius Griffins from post-season tournament play and NCAA televised games, and will restrict the number of athletic scholarships the college can award per year. The NCAA has been investigating the Canisius basketball program since last September, and in its finding, cited 18 specific infractions, primarily dealing with unfair financial assistance to athletes and providing various benefits not available to other students. In citing the violations, the NCAA referred to player “positions” rather than names. Canisius College Director" of Athletics Daniel Starr indicated, however, that the two athletes in question were star forward Larry second-round draft choice in the professional draft last Thursday, and center Charley Jordan, who transferred to Mercyhurst College in Erie, Pa. The two were declared ineligible on the final day of the regular season because, Canisius officials said, they had received “improper financial aid.” Violations The NCAA charged that a student had received excessive financial assistance during the 1973-74 academic year. It was disclosed that the financial arrangements were made by former basketball coach John Morrison, former Athletic Director Jim Bedell, and their superior, Executive Vice President for Student Affairs George Martin. A student’s meals and lodgings were provided at a motel during September 1973, at college expense. At the time, the student in question was not enrolled, the NCAA charged. In September 1973, a student was provided with a round-trip air ticket to visit his family. During his visit, the student was also provided with expenses for room, board, and family entertainment, all at college expense. The following violations concerned Jordan: For about six weeks in the summer of 1973, a student was provided with room and board at Canisius while he was not enrolled. Mr. Morrison allegedly made the financial arrangements for the visit. —During August 1973, a student was reportedly permitted to charge gasoline for his personal use at the expense of the college. — THE STUDENT RATE for classified ads Is $1.25 for the first IS words, 5 cents each additional word.

Dr. Starr and other Canisius officials view the penalty as minor in some ways and significant in others. Although the Griffins will be excluded from post-season tournaments for two years, may not appear in televised games, and have “limited” recruitment powers, they have not appeared in a post-season tournament in ten years, have rarely been considered for television, and can still recruit as many as five players. Basketball Coach John McCarthy, who replaced Mr. Morrison last September, is presently recruiting players for next season. He has not signed anyone yet, which is unusual for this late in the year. Explaining the more serious nature of the penalty, Dr. Starr admitted that “this is a black mark on Canisius’ reputation, and I hope people put this in the perspective of a 100-year history and many decades of integrity.” ‘ ' , APARTMENT FOR RENT campus, AREA, walk to 3-bedroom flat, completely furnished. or No pets. 688-2378 837-5579.

With them they will carry the ideals of liberalism, tolerance, and active cooperation that have been so much a part of the policy of U. B. The staff of the yearbook extends its heartiest congratulations to our future alumni and asks only that they remember their debt to their university: keep the school spirit as strong as ever. Every effort made to mcrease the standing of your university will automatically add to your own status and to your pride in your Alma Mater. 2 ..._, . .....- ... ' • ...., '.. '' 11..0 ',"'I • foreword �"Great men are the guide-posts and landmarks in the state." Edmund Burke year book staff, humbly dedicate this W issue ofthethe1950Buffalonian to one of our most beloved E, OF great men, Samuel P. Capen .l �- change all the time. Generally the changes represent improvements. Very few American universities have ever deteriorated. In this respect our institutions hav e bee n more fortunate than universiti es in many other parts of the world. The majority of European universities, for example, suffered physical and financial disasters as the resu lt of two world wars. But crippling as were these material losses, they were less devastating than the destruction of the intellectual and moral standards of every university located within the countries controlled by totalitarian despotisms. In the rare cases where American in stitutions have de teriora ted, the cause has been at bottom the same as that which undermined the universities of Germany and Italy and Russia. Their governing bodies and their members have yielded to some strong externa l pressure. In response to such pressure they have surrendered the right to fre e inquiry and free expression. Or they have compromised their standards for the sake of more mon ey or more local popularity or more meretricious publicity. Or they have substituted an arbitrary and dictatorial management for the democratic and cooperative determination of instituti onal policies. I do not think that any of these calamities will befall the University of Buffalo in the foreseea ble future. Behi nd this institution lies a century of intim ate voluntary cooperation between its members and the leade rs of the major professional and civic interests of the N iagara Frontier. For a century our way of life has been the way of discussion and debate and mutual accommodation. This Unive rsity has never been autocratica ll y bossed or policed, and its members would not tolerate th e imposition of any such condition. Our long tradition of complete intellectual freedom is so firml y entrenched and so highly prized that it is inconceiva ble that it shou ld be abandoned. Nevertheless, we should remember that these cherish ed characteristi cs of our institutional life are not automatically self-perpetuating. We must always be alert to reassert and to gua rd them. For th ey are alw ays being challenged by some individua ls, either within or without the University, who for short-sighted or selfish reasons seek to impair th em. Their defense is, consequently, a never-ending responsibility of all of us, students, alumni, fa cu i ty and Counci I. Although we hope and believe that these central purposes and practices of our University will not be altered, other kinds of changes will, of course, constantly occur. No one can predict with any certainty what they will be, or perhaps eve n imagine them . Who could have foreseen twenty-five years ago, for instance, that t he total assets of the University-land, buildings and endowmentwhich then amounted to about $5,ooo,ooo. wou ld by now amount to approximatel y S22,ooo,ooo? Or that th e six schools and coll eges then existin g would by 1950 have increased to twelv el Even as late as 19+1, who cou ld possibly have supposed that the total enroll 'ment, which had never much exceeded 5000, wou ld within eight years be more than IJ,soo? The only forecast relatin g to the immediate future that I will hazard is this: The University of Buffalo will continue to grow in distinction, in powe r to enri ch the li ves of its students, and in ability to serve its community and the nation. The privilege of belonging to it wi ll be in creasingly a source of justifiable pride to all of its members. Samuel P.

This is not, and never has been, a popular philosophy. It has undergone attack from many quarters, both native and forei gn. Not th e least of these attacks· have been made by some who pay mouth-honor to such freedom. Examples of such can be found throughout the American university system. Too many schools, while saluting liberalism, remain the coll eges of carefully censored text books and carefully screened instructors, of the closely scrutinized thinking and the neat, well laundered thoughts. At least one outstanding exception to these is the University of Buffalo. For here, at least, is one home of unshackled thought. The academ ic atmosphere is imbued with the esse nce of liberalism, freedom for the inquiring mind. Indeed, freedom is in such strong tradition here that it has come to be regarded as a matter of course. Perhaps this universit y is most highl y valued by those of us who have had knowledge of the philosophies and workings of some other contem porary American colleges. It is our belief that the University of Buffalo deserves a journal whose philosophy is in close harmony with that school's great tradition. Such was the belief upon which the ARGUS was founded and such has remained the creed of its editors. Just as the school welcomes all shades of opinion-theological, cultural or political-in its curriculum, so does the ARGUS in its columns. This paper has, since its inception in 1947, become the medium that has taken fullest advantage of the University's freedom o£ expression. l 8 �First Row: Jean Zachery, Joyce Hubers, Sall y H aifa , Norma Enquist, Joann e H a nna, Flli e H aifa, Pat F unk .

Most of these problems were met, faced and conquered by the able efforts of our Business Manager, Marie Dubke. Approximately the middle of the first semester marked the change of the Editorship with Dick Hainer stepping into, and ably filling, the shoes vacated by Tom Hinkley, who was forced to abdicate in favor of academic pursuits. Dick's position as Managing Editor was efficiently taken over by Don Lever. Rounding out the E xecuti ve Board are Don Wiesnet, Sports Editor, and Ken Knepfl ar, News Editor. Kenn y took command as News Editor after that position had been vacated by Roger Brandt, who followed Tom in the academic field. Don has spent most of this semester assembling an efficient and smooth-running sports staff. With a concentrated drive for more advertising looming large as a success, the efforts of the Bee staff are now directed towards the emulation of their predecessors. 1') �band September once again fou nd the marchin g bandsme n of U.B. kickin g up the dust behind Norton or in Civic Bowl in rehearsal for the man y thrilling formations which made this the most successful gridiro n display season in man y yea rs.

Symphony Orchestra has functioned under the leadership of the well-known conductor Jan Wolanek . Our organiza tion has shown a marked improvement this year, in both membership and quality of performance. The U. B. Symphony, in conjunction with the U.B. Chorus, presented a well received program for the student body in Norton Union on the eleventh of November. Again this year the Orchestra assisted the Blue Masquers in their Fall presentation. However, the Annual Spring Concert at Kleinhans Music Hall was our most impressive program. This was evident by the ability and energetic work of Mr. Wolanek and by the enthusiasm of our members.

This honor is the highest to be attained by men students. The ceremony for the induction of these men is conducted each year during the grand march at the Junior Prom. Men whose activities and outstanding loyalty and devotion to the school have brought forth their leadership qualities are "tapped" and formally accepted by the society. Last year six men received this distinction. They were Fredrick Baynes (since el«cted President), James (Bill) Everett (Vice-President), Thomas R. Hinckley (Secretary & Treasurer), William Webster, Albert Szymanski, and Vernon Gibson. Identification of these distinguished men is evidenced by their royal blue banners and gold keys as they form the guard of honor for the Junior Prom Queen each year.

It is composed of over 350 uni versities and colleges and is rapid ly growing. Alt hough rela tively new, its growth has been phenomenal and is being watched with considerable interest by other non member colleges. The benefits of N.S.A. are many. It fosters close r relationship betwee n the colleges of the coun try . It has district assembly meetings eac h month and one annual convention. These meetings are a practical exercise in democracy, enabling the students who participate to assert their fundamental rights as individuals, furthering N.S.A.'s basic principle of academic freedom for a ll students. It promotes student interest and fellowship in each individual member's campus. First, there is the Purchase Card System by which students are able to purchase merchandise at reduced prices. There is also the nationally famous art tour of college student's creations. The N.S.A. publishes its own magazine, the Essai . It sponsors the annual N.S.A. musicale, and the Salt and Pepper Opera. An intercollegiate dance is also promoted in the spring of each year. The N .S.A. gives students a chance to participate in student affai rs and gain valuable experience in organization and management of various projects, as well as making new acquaintances and lifelong friendships. �First Row: Dorrance Yauchzy, Florence R emholrl, Bud LaCroix, Nan Dossert, Bob Botash, Don Addison, E laine Condrell, Sue Scull. PRESIDENT radio playhouse VICE-PRESIDENT DON PERRY SUE SKULL SECRETARY MARGA R ET STUNTZ TREASURER GEORGE CURTIS Although th e U.B. Radio Playhouse is only three years old, it has rapidly gained prominence on the campus. The purpose of the club is to enable interested students to get practical expe rien ce in the fields of radio-acting, writing, and producing. During the year 1948-49, the club presented a series of four dramatic programs whose subject was the work of the Buffalo Good Will Industries, Inc., and also helped to produce the "Campus on the Air" programs over station WXRA. In the spring of 1949, the organization took a campus poll to determine the two most popular local radio person ali ties and honored the winners, Clint Buehlman and Ralph Hubbell, at a dinner party at the Hotel Sheraton. Last August the members enjoyed a beach party at Empire Beach, Sherkston, Canada, and hope to make this an annual occasion. Plans for the current year include a speaker on the subject "Acting for Television" and the production of practice scripts on the club's new tape recorder. Plans are also being formula ted for the presentation of radio adaptations of novels or plays over one of the local stations. �First Row: Alfred Goldsmith, Dark Room Warden, Bill Atkins, Vi ce-President.

The club's well equipped darkroom in Norton Union is a special attraction to its members. The darkroom is open during the day and evening. Two enlargers, developing tanks and trays, floodlamps, printing boxes and ferrotype dryers are pieces of equipment that are most appreciated by the members. The club conducts frequent photography contes ts wherein the photographs submitted are judged and criticized ' by professional photographers. Special topics of photographic interest such as fallscenes and school activities are assigned as subject material for the contests. Many outings are sponsored throughout the year. The members thus have an opportunity to take a variety of pictures as well as become better acquainted with each other. The fall and winter seasons lend themselves nicely to providing background for outdoor scenes at the outings. The club is quite proud of some outing photographs which have demonstrated the beauty of its feminine members as models. The Camera Club endeavors not onl y to promote the scientifi c aspects of photograph y, but also to provide social entertainment for its members. The individual member is allowed to use photography as a hobby for pleasure, as a means of professional training, and also in the esthetic sense of being better able to capture and appreciate the arti stic beauty of m other na ture. �OLD OFFICERS PRESIDENT JACK TYLEE VICE-PRESIDENT, CAPTAIN and PUBLICITY MANAGER TOM HINCKLEY SECRETARY MURIEL (MARANVILLE) MARSHALL TREASURER DICK HAINER First R ow: Joan Mullen, Irene Graham, Patricia McMullen, Standing: Jack Tylee, Tom Hinckley, Dick Hain er. salt and peppers First R ow: Joa n Seabrooks, Jim Ri ch, Doll y J arecke, Standing: Ken Knepfla r, Barb ara Lewis, Ray Gillman .

Since its in ception in April 1947, the club has covered a wide variet y of programs and social eve nts. The bi ggest objective ac hi eved to date has bee n the esta blishm en t of a $500 scholarship award, the winner of whi ch is at present a freshman at the University of BufFalo. Funds for this project are derived from two annual dances held in Lackawanna, a proced ure which promises the continuity of the L-UB sc holarship. We are quite proud of this ac hi evement, believ in g it to be the first award of its kin e! undertaken by a small, indepe nd ent campus organization. Social activities consist of periodi c "holi day ga the rings, " th e support of universit y fun ctions, and the usual round of parti es. The clim ax of th e social season is the N ew Year's Eve Party sponsored by the club which is hi ghlighted by a floorshow composed entirely of club me mbers . In the realm of sports, this club is a new ent ry; however, it has a lready won the championship of its d ivision in softba ll, is active in basketball, and hopes to ente r intramural football and tennis in th e future. At interva ls th e club invites promin ent spea ke rs from th e Univ ersit y of Buffalo and from local civic organization s to lec ture on topics of curre nt educationa l and political interes t. Languages are no handi cap for this organization, sin ce it is composed of at least twenty d ifferent nationalities- a veritable "melting pot." This liberalism de rives from the fa ct that there arc no racial or religious restrictions in me mbership qualifications. Future plans includ e the upkeep of the L-UB scholarship, a more active particip~ttion in intramura l sports, and a series of lectures on su bj ects of gene ral importance. �First R ow: Bob Wager, Ru t h W alsh, Ka th y DeClare, Floren ce Stevens, Do tt y Bolton, Marc Burke, P at Martin, Sa ll y Lano, Di ck Dunning, AI Loughboroug h.

Of course, we 're selfish to some degree in that we want to give ou rselves, as ind ividuals, al l the self-expression and enjoyment possible. We want to develop lead ership, have good times, and "get into the swing of things" around the ca mpus, for th ese are all vital and stim ul ating parts of a coll ege caree r. In other words, we don 't want to mi ss out on anything either. But ge tting back to our contributions, we know that our organization shoul d do more than just attempt to satisfy its own self-centered ego. 'v\'e rea li ze we have an obl igation to mee t, an ob ligation to use our organization and the energi es it harbors to help achieve an end. This en d, we believe is a better campus life for all who may come to our community in the future. We have already made a step in this direction but we know we can do more-much more.

It offers a broad and varied program of sports for women, including such perennial favorites as tennis, go lf, badminton, ping-pong, basketba ll , archery, fencing-all designed to please "Jill College". Each year the association awards a cup to the outstanding woman athlete of the year at the University and conducts the annual basketball tournament for wor'nen teams. These are but two of the many hi g hlights on the activity agenda of the association. Most important, the \\'omen's Athletic Association is an organization "of and by" university women and its program maintains the diversity and flexibility which makes it possible to participate in some phase of its program.

Since that date, the organization has expanded to include sixty-two chapters in the United States and Canada, and is known as an international fraternity. The biennial convention of active and passive chapters' representatives was held in Roanoke, Virginia, in 1949. At this time Mary Jane Grimes Flemmer was inaugurated as the Grand President. Alpha Alpha Chapter on the University of Buffalo campus was founded in August 1922. The chapter has the high ideals of scholarship and activities set forth by national rules as its goal. It is proud of its Phi Beta Kappas and other members distinguished by campus honorary societies.

Another memorable year has bee n written 111 the pages of the Theta Chi diary. The Winter carnival began our activiti es and our "typical U.B . student," a study in ice, courtesy of Lee and Dodie, brought us a prize and a memorable sorority mee ting. Ou r hearts were filled with pride when Dodie reigned as Queen over the Junior Prom and Cracker was elected to Cap and Gown at Home Concert. April brought our Spring Fling and another rousing cocktail party at the Mull en residence. We rem ember well, Moving Up Day-Snow White, the Prince, the Seven Dwarfs, the roses we looked at for months ahead of tim e, the parade and most of all how proud and happy we were to receive top honors. Thanya as an attendant to the Queen completed our successful day. In June we welcomed our new initiates to the sorority as well as our new patrons, Lib Dunning and Nancy Van Arsdale. Wedding bells rang throughout the year and we wished success to Joyce Dougherty, Cal Lutz, Jan Hunter, Erna Rausch and Muriel Maranville. Back to school with rushing in full swing. Mrs. Pegrum joined us at our "Hawaiian" informal party. The General Brock was the scene of the formal party where we were honored by our own "Mousie," Mrs. Norton , a Theta Chi founder, and Libby Dunning. We were again filled with pride when Sally Schillo became an atte ndant at th e Homecoming dance not to mention her lead role for two consecu tive years in the school play. Party! ! We ca n't forget the fun we had at Nancy Clark's before Pan H ell dance. In Decem ber honors were bestowed on Jo Ann Daigler, Dora Bertoglio, Irene Graham and Issie Taylor, by Who's Who in American colleges.

The purpose of this organization is to maintai n with high standards, fraternity life and interfraternity relationships; to co-operate with the coll ege authorities in the effort to maintain the highest social and scholastic standards throughout the entire University; and to provide a forum for the discussion of questions of interest to fraternity men. In add ition to its legislative functions, the Interfraternity Council of U.B. performs its numerous services to all male members of the University regardless of fraternity affiliation. Each incoming fres hman is given the annuali.F.C. Handbook, a diges t of all fraternities and a list of their members. Freshmen are also invited to a Freshman Mixer, held in their honor to acquaint them and allow them to ask any questions that they might have concerning any particular fraternity. To complete th e seaso n, the Council presents a formal dance, restricted to fraternity members. The Counci l also takes a very active part in intramural athletics in which it may boast a long and successful record. There are numerous other activities in which the Interfraternity Council participates. Among these is the very popular "Greased Pig Catch," held during the half-ti'me ceremonies of the Homecoming Football Game.

Some of the highl ights of the convention were dinnerdances at the General Brock Hotel, Chez Ami, and the Hotel Statler. Teas, sightseeing trips and picnics were sandwiched in here and there to make sure that everyone would have a good time. Dan Cupid gave Epsilon chapter quite a bit of attention this year. Three brothers were married and six brothers are in that blissful coma as a resu lt of Cupid's darts. In the past summer the main social activity centered about the fraternity cottage on the.

I ''{ . j I alpha phi omega The Epsilon Sigma chapter of Alpha Phi Omega Fraternity is one of many similar chapters located on various American campuses. It is also one of the few national fraternities established at the Universi ty of Buffalo. Primarily organized to be of service, to our university and to our community, the local chapter has well fulfilled these ideals. The brothers of A Phi 0 sponsored the Ugly Man contest to raise funds for the Polio drive in conjunction with the Campus Barrel. They acted as guides on Freshman Orientation Day, ushered at graduation ceremonies and other such occasions. These are but a few of the services we have performed and are willing to undertake at request. Foremost in our many social events was our semi-annual closed pledge dance, which was held at the Park Lane. Smokers to welcome prospective pledges, bowling parties and a rolli cki ng weekend in the country were also found on the semester agenda. We participated in I.F.C. social events as well as Inter Fraternity football , basketball, and boating. Emphasizing the service rather than the social aspects of fraternity life, the program of Alpha Phi Omega Fraternity embodies four fields of activity. They are: Service to the student body and faculty Service to youth and community Service to members of the fraternity Service to the nation as participating citizens. We are proud to state that discrimination in regard to color and creed has no place in our national fraternity's policy. �First Row: W. Collins, K. Knepflar, R. Kane, D. Whitman, R. Dell, S.

Sti ll feeli ng like the proverbial peacocks after winning top awards in the Moving-Up Day parade last yea r, BXE teamed up with SAN to throw a fine dance at Kleinhan's . In addition, a good portion of the class officers and a few representatives on the Board of Managers proudly wear the diamond. The main highlight of the year was the acquisition of a fr ate rn ity house at 257 Minnesota t hrou gh assistance from Alumni Brother Walt Wi lloughby. The work done on the house through the summer and fall would stagger an ace contractor (and did) was climaxed by the practical completion of the bar and Wreck-Room on December Jist-just in time; Thanks to Augie, Ed, and Steve . The grea test sorrow was the passing of Brother Dick Dunning last Jul y. He was one of the most loya l and beloved of the brothers, and his prese nce is sorely missed. To commemorate Dick, the fraternity has set up the Richard A. Dunning Memorial Award for the semester's most outstanding brother in all phases of college life. BXE's annual Dominic J. Grossi Memorial Trophy was presented last yea r to Bob Eldridge, U .B.'s outstanding basketball handler in 1948-49· Inter Fraternity sports and the Greased Pig chase fast fall saw more of BXE energy and power transformed in a machine for trophy winning. We were only scored upon once in football. It was all Ross's fault. The fairer sex also took their toll (but on ly for the best) . We acquired more staunch supporters in the form of matrimony and engagements. Those to find this category were Jim Decot, Ed Andrews, Carl Molin , and Joe Hanssel. As the oldest soc ial fraternity at U. B., Beta Chi Epsilon is very proud of its achievements. Some members distinguished in the past ye ar were Don Ross, Editor of the Buffalonian; Rodger Brandt, Editor of th e Bosco and BEE, Tom Hinckley, Bisonhead, Editor of the BEE, and an officer in Salt and Peppers, Bud Nicholson and Wells Knibloe, Board of Managers and Who's Who, and many others. June 1950 rolls around, and with it we see many of our foremost brothers leaving the ranks, but th eir courage, soli darity, and superiority as members of BXE will certainly see their life in the future successful and happy. �First R ow: Bill Forrest, J oe Maro t ta, Ji m H ool ey , J oe P alm isan o, D ick Schimp h, H a rri s D ick y, J oh n E ibel, D ick D u r ning , J ack P otter.

Actin g in accordance with its purpose, it afforded a grea t deal of social activity for the students o f the School of Pharmacy and at the same time se rved to better unite the potential members of the profession . Within the fraternity itself great activit y was devoted toward the acquisition of a new, permanent ch apter home. Such a large undertakin g requires both time and ex tensive reso u rces bu t we sincerel y hope t hat ou r obj ecti ve wi ll be reali zed within another school year. As in the past , " The Whi rl on W herle" in October and the " Pledge D a nce" in M arch were the big, ope n soc ial events of t he yea r.

In the summer of 1949, several parties and get-togethers were held, the outstanding one being a steak roast. E arly in fall, effort was spent to make the "Second Autumn Nocturne" a thumping success. The evening of October fifteenth was the reward to all our labor. Among the other social events of the first semester were a hayride, pledge smoker, cocktail parties before school dances, and the big Initiation Dinner-Dance. New Year's Eve was not forgotten either. Many of these events were repeated in the Spring semester. On the "off weekends" there was usually "a quiet, dry and intellectual" house party. These festive evenings permitted us to see our "lost" brethren in Med, Dent, and Law Schools. At the Founders' Day Dinners we saw many of our old-time alumni. Turning from the social to the athletic life, the Fraternity fielded many teams in the Inter-fraternity League. We never finished first, but neither did we carry off the booby prize. Several members held assistantships in the various departments of the University. Others were elected to honorary societies. The members of our Fraternity have been active also in such groups on the campus as Blue Masquers, Hillel, The Argus and Bee, Band and Orchestra, Departmental Clubs (e.g. History and German) and other clubs. We are especially proud of Sam Shatkin who is an officer in the Sophomore Class in A & S and Harvey Resnick who was elected to the Athletic Committee of the U ni versi ty. Looking back on the year 1949-1950 we can feel pride and enjoyment that will long be remembered. First Row Pledges : M. Lun, S. Sugarman, S. Babny, G. Lisch. Second Row: S. P enner, Historian, R .

Beta Sigma Tau, the only national non-sectarian, non-racial, social fraternity, is a little more than two years old. The rapidity of its growth was evidenced at its recent national convention held last summer at beautiful Lake Geneva , Wisconsin, where its del egates witnessed the admission of four new chapters bringing the total to I I. The idea behind Beta Sigma Tau is not, as erroneously construed, an all-out crusade against the evils of the fraternit y system and racial and religious discrimination. Rather the fraternity stands for an ideal as old as man : that all men regardless of race, color, and creed can live and play together, not only in the same world but in the same social organization. BST does not hope to pledge only those individuals who share its views but also welcomes anyone who is willing to live an intercultural campu3 social life if only to prove to himself that it can or cannot fail. On the intramural front, BST has fielded teams in almost every sport. They were second in baseball and bowling and their basketball squad placed in the top half of the league. BST members have been and are participating in varsity athletics, campus publications and clubs and have been on the Board of Managers. 97 �u �First Row: Howard Schaer, Henry Hearn, John Nelson, Robert Wilson Edward Ackerman, Peter Gerone.

The year started with our annual banquet and formal initiation ceremonies at the Park Lane. We were very privileged to have a representative of the American Optical Company as our main speaker for the evening. Mr. Robert Holloway, master of the "Robot Pin Setter" and very close friend of the fraternity was formally welcomed as an honorary member. Our banquet this semester found us in the gracious atmosphere of Hotel Westbrook. We were greatly honored by the presence of Dr. Arthur L. Maloy, our grand chapter vice-president, who flew here from Wes t Virginia to preside over our formal initiation ceremonies. Xi Chapter was very fortunate again this year in having one of its members win the "number one" award for the best scientific paper submi t ted in the national contest. Our very talented brother, Mr. Richard Kaminski, wrote on the "Colorimetric Determination of Ph." Congratulations, Dick! Cupid played havoc with our group this year by snatching Tom Ferington and Russ Paris from our nest.

For th e men of Chi Tau were able to recall with ease the landm arks of that significant yea r. Th e acqui siti on of a cottage in t he late spring was one highspot. The old farm dwelling, located near Point Breeze, soon felt the full impact of a my ri ad of young men who energetica ll y rebuilt and painted it, But, as the summer wore on a nd the hea t in creased, more work pa rties became swim pa rties. Then someone found th e "C hicl et," a cottage with women, and work ceased entirely. The social calendar conti nu ed as a full one. T here were ha y rides on Grand Island, snow parties at Chestnut, parties at the Abbott Hotel, Roycroft , and the Boland Post as we ll as the un planned get-to-gtthcrs after the games at the Ri ve rside Post. Th e Hotel Sy racuse fracas following the Colgate game will long be remembered. Campus Activiti es found the men ofX.T.O. in the cente r of things and man y of its members received important offi ces . Eugen e Hyzy and Bi ll Merow we re elec ted to the Board of Managers.

LUPTON CORRESPONDING SECRETARY ROBERT A. LIPP �In February, 1949, t he Nu chapte r of Sigma Alpha Mu Fraternity was reorganized at the University of Buffalo. It had been inacti ve since the middle 193o's. The interest shown in the newl y activated chapter was p henomenal; the response of the new chapter members indicated that "Sammies" wou ld have a busy future . Such has been the case, for Nu Chapter now enjoys an active members hip wh ich numbers well ove r thirty men. The first pledge class indicated its enthusiasm with a memorab le forma l dance held at the Westwood Country Club. As early as a few months after reactivation, the members began to work on securing a fratern ity house. Up to the present, they have encountered difficulties whi ch have kept the realization of a fraternity house a thing of the future. Now after many months of hard work, on t he part of both the alumni and the undergraduates, this realization is about to be fulfilled. Sigma Alpha Mu has invariably set difficult goals for itself, and it has endeavored to attain these goals. As an active group it has taken part in the greater number of campus activities; our showing in variou s competiti ons has prove n to all that we are willing to participate wholeheartedly in all campus fun ctions. As a fniternity, Sigma Alpha Mu enj oys the benefits of a well organ ized National and International administrative body; such benefits as life membership and receipt of national pub li cations have been an integral factor in advancing a close bond between active members and , alumni groups. In the years which lie ahead, we will continue to aim hi gh. sigma alpha mu First Row: Ma rtin B. Weinberg, Morton L. Epstein, Ralph R. LaRoux, All en E. Koor, P aul Davis, Jerome Ratzan, Robert L.

Today it includes over forty chapters in schools throughout the United States, England, Canada, New Zealand, and Tasmania. In March, 1948, a group of energetic young men formed the New York Alpha Chapter at th ~ Vr;iversity of Buffalo. In accordance with the aims set for th in the Constitution the Fraternity has sought to develop a spirit of brotherhood, to inspire loy alty to the ideals and traditions of the University of Buffalo, and to encourage activ it ies social, athlet ic, and especially scholastic. Although Kappa Sigma Kappa is a newcomer to the campus, a steadily increasing membership, a growing social calendar, and active participatio n in schoo l functions have given ample proof of the sincerity of our Fraternal spirit. We are proud of our brothers who served as leaders in campus activities during the past year, inclu ding Dick Haberkorn on the Board of Managers, Ray Good, as Chairman of the Junior Prom Committee and Jack Tylee with the Salt and Peppers. On the social side the Fraternity will remember happ y days at Sunset Bay and a picnic at Chestnut Ridge . Other good times during the school year included the rush parties, a hay ride and of course the school dances which always provided an excuse for a cocktail party. The Fraternity extends its sincere co ngratulations to its graduates and wishes them good lu ck for the years to come.

It marked the establishment of Gamma Pi Chapter of Theta Chi on campus. Since that date, eve nts have been progressing rapi d ly. The big eve nt of last spring was the "Sweetheart" Dance held at the Hotel Buffalo, which climaxed the activities of the year. The da nce, held on April 2nd, saw the Theta Chi's a nd their guests sway to the rh ythms of Rip Robinson and his orchestra. During the summer, there were frequent get-togethers at the cottage in Angola. The fall brought the opening of school and also man y activities. The annual "Frost Killer" Dance was held on November 4th and turned out to be the most successful in hi story. The Christmas Dance soon followed, with a "good old" Theta Chi cocktail party preceding the dance. The second semester started in full swing with the annual Interfraternity Council Dance on February qth followed by the Active-Passive Stag on February 18th. On this date, many Theta Chi's, from far and near, gathered to spend the evening in reminiscing and having a wonderful time. Thus ended Theta Chi's activities for the year, with many more good times in view before the next school-year rolls around.

This installment explores the prospects of a system*offaculty advisement. by Richard Korman Campus Editor Faculty advisement is being considered as one way of improving academic advisement at the University. But those who recommend such a system warn that it would require major changes, both in University policy and faculty attitudes, and would be far from a panacea for all advisement problems. Proponents stress that faculty advisement would provide an invaluable link between advisement and the academic departments, underscoring the specialized expertise that a centralized advisor cannot hope to offer. An upper division history major, for example, could receive better academic counseling from a professor who is active in the History Department. Undergraduate Dean Charles Ebert agrees with this analysis. In a lengthy report on advisement, Dr. Ebert says it is an illustion to expect such expertise at the general advisor level. “How can a non-professional person (non-mathematician, non-sociologist, etc.] really understand the nature of a profession and the constant changes which occur when even some faculty members are not aware,” he asks. Assignments did not work “We have tried, in the past when we had fewer programs and a smaller University, to assign programs to various advisers, hopefully in areas where the adviser was interested and also qualified. With few exceptions, this simply did not work.” Dr. Ebert has recommended that the present advisement system be changed to a triplicate system that would involve both DUE advisers and faculty members. Under his proposal, DUE would retain about eight advisers for centrally-located advisement. Another eight advisers with appropriate training and academic inclination would be spread among the different Faculties. Dr. Ebert envisions that these people would eventually become attached to the provost’s office, instead of operating out of DUE. A third kind of adviser would be faculty who would advise all declared majors, handling all problems and acting as a general resources person. Dr. Ebert feels these faculty members should play an active role in advising transfer students and freshman during summer orientation. Faculty reluctance One major drawback to a system of faculty advisement, however, could be the reluctance of faculty to become heavily involved in advisement. Faculty members, discouraged by the large, impersonal nature of the University, are inclined to concentrate on research and or the professional aspects of their jobs publishing rather than teaching, advisement, or student-oriented work. Faculty regard themselves as “givers of courses,” not “guiders of students,” and do not wish to be bothered with another burdensome chore, many observers claim. Consequently, they may demand that there be some sort of compensation for taking on this additional work. This could take the form of release time from teaching or increases in salary. Indeed, because of the growing strength of the United University Professionals (UUP), faculty members could conceivably seed to have this compensation negotiated into their contracts ahead of — — 18 November 1974 established on a high level University-wide basis, i.e., that it will have to be spelled out that it is expected that faculty members will actively accept advisement functions as part of a University service, Dr. Ebert stated in his report on advisement. But aside from a fear of regimentation, or being handed a list of students they will be compelled to advise, many faculty do not feel competent to do advisory work, according to George Hochfield, Chairman of the Faculty-Senate. This idea is supported by advisers who feel their job is much too complex to be handed over to faculty, who, despite a long list of academic accomplishments, may know little about advisement. What is there to prove that faculty members, simply because of their proximity to the departments, are any better versed in degree requirements or suitable major programs? some advisers ask. Many faculty know little time. Renegotiating contracts and formal compensation could involve the very sensitive and complex process of justifying such changes with the State Bureau of the Budget in Albany. If faculty are given release time, the University may have to ask Albany for additional staff lines. Lack of intimacy For those who feel University faculty are underworked and do not deserve compensation for students, the prospect of legislated faculty advisement is not a welcome one. Many believe faculty advisement is inherent in a professor's role within the University and should not be considered an extra burden. Although University faculty have traditionally engaged in informal student counseling, current trends toward large, multi-campus University centers have precluded the kind of intimacy and informal contact offered by smaller, private institutions. In settings more conducinve to one-to-one discussions with faculty, as opposed to this University’s crowded, anonymous lecture halls and classes where upper division classes may even exceed thirty students, informal academic advisement is a natural outgrowth of the friendship that develop between faculty and students with similar interests. In that type ooooooooooooooof institution, the traditional acceptance of informal faculty advisement is often reflected in tuition and faculty salaries. Faculty are expected to automatically advise students who approach them for help, and this is acknowledged as a University service. At this University and others like it, faculty advisement is not a universally accepted norm. Professors are required to post open office hours for every section they teach, but students take advantage of this opportunity infrequently. Many students will only visit their instructors to discuss poor grades, and this will often happen only if the professor returns a test or paper with a specific request to see the student. Formalization “One of the greatest obstacles to involving faculty members in advisement is that such a policy must be about their department, they claim and may also be incapable of providing the kinds of sensitive, supportive counseling that a beneral advisor has made a career out of. There is also the possibility that unwilling faculty may be forced to advise unwilling students. Tenure and promotion While there is no simple solution, the best answer may lie in shifting University priorities so that a faculty member’s role in advisement will count as much as research and teaching in tenure and promotion decisions. This idea is supported by Student Association (SA) Academic Affairs Coordinator Mark Humm. “Advisement should be recognized as part of their job,” Mr. Humm emphasized. “If working with students is a professor’s bag, then that’s what he ought to be given credit for. If a faculty member is not getting out the research, he isn’t necessarily of less value to the University.” Mr. Humm feels, however, that faculty advisers should have some background or receive some kind of technical training. But many observers are skeptical of the administration’s inclination or ability to shift tenure criteria to include advisement services. At the very least, such a change would require a major break with past policy which has underscored research and publication achievements.

Food Service claims plastic use is sanitary Food Service officials have denied charges by several students that “it is impossible to properly clean a plastic utensil.” Student theft of silverware is why we use plastic utensils instead of stainless steel, explained Tom Modica, Food Service area manager at the Governors Complex. If the next shipment of silverware is stolen, plastic utensils will have to be used all year, he said. Tom Boebel, manager of Norton Hall Food Service, said two types of plastic utensils are used. One type is very thin and inexpensive, and cannot be sanitized or re-used. A thicker type of plastic utensil may be run through a hot dishwasher without damage. Mr. Modica defended the use of plastic utensils, pointing out that the legality was confirmed by a representative of the Food Division of the Erie County Department of Health. If correctly stacked in the dishwasher, plastic utensils should come out clean, he added. Both Mr. Modica and Mr. Boebel noted that student theft of other Food Service equipment, such as trays and dishes, is every tray costs $4.85. The cost of replacing extremely costly stolen items detracts from Food Service’s ability to meet students j needs, Mr. Boebel said. — 'reshmen Bid placed for post office The Faculty-Student Association (FSA) has placed a bid with the United States Postal Service to set up small post offices on the Main Street and Amherst campuses. The actual site on the Amherst Campus has not yet been determined but FSA treasurer Ed Doty speculates that it would be located near the University Bookstore in the Ellicott Complex. The Main Street branch has already been tentatively scheduled for Norton Hall. Former location inconvenient The previous attempt at maintaining a post office on campus failed because its location in the basement of Hayes Hall was inconvenient for many students, serving only those with immediate access to that building. The post office was losing an average of $15,000 a year and was forced to close. The new sub-stations will provide regular post office services, including parcel post, registered mail, and the sale of stamps. The cost to set up the branch in Norton Hall should total no more than $2,000, Mr. Doty predicted. The post office staff will consist mainly of Bookstore personnel. Mr. Doty is optimistic about the success of this endeavor. “The larger amount of postal traffic may influence the U.S. Postal System to give us the sub-station without too much hassling,” he said.

The most frequent student complaint concerning academics focused on the impersonal nature of large lecture classes. “You can’t get to know your teachers,” one political science major said. “That was the way I used to operate in high school.” Other students seemed discouraged because “red tape” keeps them from getting their courses. “It’s not only the big things, like not getting your classes,” said one student, “it’s the little things, too, that add up you can’t get change or stamps or the washing machine breaks.” Although many freshmen questioned feel their college work is not qualitatively different than what they did in high school, most agree that the amount of work they now have is substantially greater, especially in the sciences. Several admitted having difficulty learning to work independently. “No one’s here to push me,” one said. “I’ve got no one to depend on.” - Tough to pace Other freshmen noted that the lack of short-term assignments in college makes it difficult to evenly distribute their work over the semester. “It’s tough to leam to pace yourself,” one freshman indicated. A lot of freshmen were surprised at the limited evaluation they have received in their classes. “I expected more ways to be evaluated,” said one pharmacy major, “but I’ve only had one test in each class so far.” This lack of evaluation puts more weight on each exam because one poor grade can have a significant effect. “In high school,” you could commented one freshman, “there were so many tests — —continued on page 4— Monday, 18 November -1-974 The Spectrum Page three . . �Uj U.W Alcoholic treatment identify the stage of alcoholism and determine treatment according to individual needs. This may take the form of group, or individual, psychotherapy. County The Erie Rehabilitation Center, formerly Terrace House, occupies a new facility at Elm and Sycafnore St. that serves as a center for homeless men. The center has a television room, 110 beds, and a fifteen-bed “sobering up” unit, a facility that gives the alcoholic an alternative to wandering the streets. Alcoholic volunteers The Center is unique in that it has no controlling mechanism. Freshmen .. The Center tries to reduce or eliminate dependency on alcohol and thus enable the individual to return to the community. But this process is often “a vicious cycle,” Mr. Robinson concedes. An individual often turns to alcohol such as signing in or out. The individual may stay for a day or a week, sober up, get a meal; or he may choose to become part of the residential program. The alcoholic then receives individualized vocational and rehabilitation counseling, and may live at the center while working on “the outside.” At present, there is no such facility for women. George Robinson, a vocational counselor at the center, explained that the program attempts to “identify the social, emotional and economic causes of alcoholism.” The alcoholic is often unable to cope with the combination of pressures from each of these areas. response to pressures from society, and upon rehabilitation, in he must return society in which he unable to function. the same was previously to Alcoholism in America is more than most people realize.

One student said she liked all her courses, terming her Women’s Studies course “beautiful.” An engineering major called his department “probably the best in the state system,” while a med-tech major said her courses were “good” and her teachers “well-qualified.” Not all were so satisfied, however. A former science major was thinking of dropping out. “Chemistry was a big letdown for me,” he said. “I guess I just wasn’t up to it.” One disgruntled “thinking of pre-law” student complained that all his courses were bad, and added, “The teachers are ridiculous. I skip a lot of classes and find it hard to get motivated. My sociology course is a joke. It’s so bad everyone reads The Spectrum during lecture.” What, no parties? Most freshmen were not surprised at the amount of work expected of them, but some apparently did not expect that everyone would do the work. “I expected more partying and less studying,” one said. Others were surprised at the “competitive spirit” among students. Many felt, however, that they would succeed, and many appeared to support the academic system here. “Whatever you want, whatever you’re into is here,” said one freshman. Those who expressed dissatisfaction with academics tended to attribute their problems to their own weaknesses or “bad luck.” One girl, talking about her lack of success in her classes, said, “I try not to blame my teachers. It’s my own fault if I don’t do well.” Others cited personal confusion, and some believed they had simply picked the wrong teachers. Most freshmen, though, assumed that eventually they would solve their difficulties and sooner or later would be able to make the adjustment to college life. • Students; $1 non-students $150 available at Norton Ticket Office Sponsored by SA & GSA j presents Professor Thomas Gould Professor of Classics, Yale Univ Norton Hall Ellicott Complex ■ Are your studies getting you must be qL U) n?

This is a peek into the future for the lowdown on the credit-hour controversy. “The Faculty-Senate approved Tuesday a compromise credit-hour plan after heated debate between proponents of the four-course load and the five-course three-credit system. The plan, which will take effect in September 1976, equates credit-hours to hours of faculty-student contact. A class that meets four hours a week would therefore earn four credits while a class meeting three hours would receive three.” The Spectrum, March 10, 1975 TRUST ME! A few years later, the academic love for'trivial research being what it is, the following thesis appeared: “The Contact-Credit Hour System: A Study of the Correlation Between Faculty-Student Contact and Learning" > w Dissertation submitted by S— D— to the Department of Higher Education, Faculty of Educational Studies, State University of New York at Buffalo, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, February, 1980. follows ate the most important excerpts.) The intention of this study is to determine what correlation, any, exists between the amount of faculty-student contact and (Editor's note: What “ . . . if student learning as determined by standard methods of learning Methodology). Findings in this area could measurement (see sec. II have significant implications for credit-granting policy . .” — . . . . After measuring the learning of hundreds of students, the conclusion is inescapable that the correlation between faculty-student contact and learning is decidedly negative in the main. Not only is there no positive increase in learning with increased exposure to faculty; by and large there is a measurable and significant decrease. Efforts to establish the variable that contribues to this phenomenon met without success. A number of students interviewed for this dissertation attributed the variation in learning to a concept we may was being unmeasurable term “teacher quality,” but this factor ruled out as unimportant . . (Editor's note: In non-acadentic English, this means increased exposure to boring teachers is detrimental to “ — — learning.) the negative . . . Class size as a variable that might explain correlation proved statistically insignificant. After surveying class size and plugging the numbers into the contact-learning correlation matrix (see figure 4-a) analysis shows a number of small classes exhibiting a negative correlation while a few large classes show neutral or positive correlation. This is partly consistent with studies by Bruuck and VanderSteen (43) showing that class size is not a determinate learning “ factor . . . . . POLICY IMPLICATIONS OF THE CONTACT-LEARNING Clearly, these findings mandate a turning of CORRELATION educational credit-granting policy on its head. Heretofore, educational policy-makers have granted academic credit for course work on the assumption, usually unstated, that greater credit should be given for greater educational experiences. Traditionally, it has been further assumed that faculty contact provides worthwhile educational experience. The first assumption is a value judgment, and, as such, has no place in this inquiry. If we proceed to accept that assumption and “ — examine the next in terms of this dissertation’s findings, it becomes obvious that institutions of higher education must revise their credit-granting policies. As this study shows, for the most part contact with faculty does not enhance the educational experience and, most often, is counterproductive thereto. What seems to be required, therefore, is a radical change of policy. “If we accept the variable-credit formula and base it, as we implicitly do, on the assumption that the educational value of a course should determine the credit given for it, the only logical course is to grant credit in inverse proportion to the amount of student-faculty contact. Hence, a course that meets five hours a week would receive, say, one credit, while a course meeting two hours a week would receive four. Even more credit should be given for independent study and, to carry the logic of these findings to their conclusion, the greatest amount of credit should be given to those students who don’t attend classes at all ...” The Spectrum Monday, 18 November 1974 Vol. 25, No. 37 Editor-In-Chief Even-handed judgement impossible To the Editor Your recent editorial, “Embracing Terrorism,” is typical of the one-sided manner in which Americans view the Arab-lsraeli situation in the Middle East. In this view, the Israelis are seen as the legitimate government, only trying to maintain their authority, while the Palestinians are the “terrorists.” The actual fact is that while the Palestinians have admittedly been guilty of some horrible atrocities, the Israelis were responsible for similar acts before they became “legitimate” in 1948. The history of Palestine in the 1940’s is replete with bombings and murders committed by such Zionist groups as the Irgun and the Stern gang. Yet today, Menachem Begin, the head of the Irgun, sits in the Knesset, the Israeli Parliament, as the respected leader of the opposition bloc. In 1947, terrorists set off bombs at the King David Hotel in Jerusalem, British Military Headquarters, resulting in the deaths of ninety British soldiers. When the two Zionists who perpetrated this deed finally revealed their identity, in 1972, they were greeted as national heroes in Israel. So much for Israeli opposition to terrorism! You cannot legitimately condemn Palestinian terrorism while at the same time justifying it when carried out by Zionists. Equally specious is your argument that the PLO does not represent the Palestinians. What do you expect them to do, hold an election? They have no government apparatus, and their people are scattered throughout the Middle East. In such situations, it is to verify authority in the. traditional ballot box. The strongest proof of their leadership in the Palestinian community is the fact that no rival group has emerged to challenge them. True, the PLO itself is an Western manner at the umbrella organization, holding together groups with widely varying political belifs, but they are united in the goal of creating a Palestinian state, an objective which most Palestinians support. This letter is not a defense of terrorist tactics, but a plea to be even-handed in judging such actions. Before 1948, when the Zionists believed that their national survival was at stake, they were willing to use any and all means to preserve it. Now the Palestinians are in the same situation. For almost twenty years, from 1948 to 1967, they waited peacefully for their grievances to be redressed and for the world to recognize their right to exist as a nation. During that time, the Israelis became more arrogant and more adamant in their refusal to recognize that right. So in desperation, the Palestinians turned to terrorism, and it has at least put their case before the world. No one wants these acts to continue, but until the Israelis realize that the country belongs as much to the Palestinians as to them, no solution will be found. For centuries, the Jews were the people without a country who claimed that they needed their own land to preserve their national identity. Now it is the Palestinians who are the people without a country. They, no less than the Jews, need a land to call their own.

From the parking situation he mentions, I imagine he lives on the Main St. campus, where the security force seems to be concentrated. First, to be slightly informative, there has been an evaluation of security for all three areas. Although the problems for each area are so different, the results reflect a similarity. Basically, the attitude of “how can a dorm be protected if the residents don’t give a shit?” How can security be effective with residents propping open doors so they won’t be inconvenienced by walking to the front door? How can an aide system work when residents refuse to show ID’s and let strangers in through unguarded doors because they “feel sorry for them?” And do you really believe security aides can prevent the entry of real thieves or do they just provide a little “psychological security?” No amount of security will be adequate unless the residents cooperate with that systen, any system! Would the key system work if all the residents were to give keys to all their “friends?” This is my 4th year in the dorms. The problem doesn’t seem to be inadequate security (although I’d be the first to admit that they are lacking, especially on the north campus). But what happened to the sense of dorm “community?” Why are the residents reluctant to report things that look suspicious; or to somewhat guard their own dorm? If the residents don’t care who will?? I get sick of hearing complaints and then those same people not helping to protect our dorms, our security. And what about getting off your asses to help work for a viable and effective security program? Or even make a suggestion. I’m trying . . . — are you??

Rubin Staff Writer Spectrum Most hockey coaches would be ecstatic if their team won a game by eleven goals, but Buffalo coach Ed Wright wasn’t grinning from ear to ear after last Wednesday’s 13—2 shellacing ofKent State. “Although we played adequately in spots, we’re still not playing as well as we should be,” Wright observed. The mediocre performance of the Bulls was still too much for the Clippers to handle. Kent State was totally frustrated in the first two periods with only 13 shots on goal, many of which were either stray passes or feeble attempts from far outside. Buffalo defensive lapses paved the way f6r both Kent State scores in the third period, but overall, the defense showed improvement. “The defense has started to settle down. They’re taking pride in stopping the other team from scoring,” Wright said. Double scorers Freshman Kurt Schoemann, playing for the flu-stricken Jack Kaminska, and Senior Ron Maracle each scored in the opening ten minutes of play on scrambles in front of the next. Six minutes later, a beautiful pass from the corner by defenseman Randy Cooper set up the first of two scores by Tom Haywood, and an unassisted goal by Mark Sylvester one minute later gave Buffalo a commanding 4-0 lead after the opening period. Among the Bulls five second period goals was a sparkling backhander by Rick Wolstenholme and an astounding one-man charge by Sylvester. Sylvester, one of five Bulls who scored twice, was robbed Of at least three other goals by Kent State goaltending. Wright made a surprise move by pulling goalie John Moore and inserting Tom Farkas in the nets for the final period. It was Farkas’ first appearance of the year. “We’re not concerned with the glory of a shutout. We have to be mentally and physically prepared for the big games,” Wright explained. Farkas was scheduled to start at goal last Saturday at Clarkson. Star Mike Klym was again held in check by Kent State, netting just one goal and one assist. However, he and his linemates, Wolstenholme and Bill Busch, got more points (8) than any other line. Klym’s co-captain, Doug Bowman, was also stopped, picking up just one assist while drawing two penalties. mherst Cam Governors after undefeated snowball fight by Paige Miller Spectrum Staff Writer Like the Huns HEATH PARKING LOT, NORTH CAMPUS centuries before, a band of hearty Ellicottians laid siege to the Governor’s complex Friday night. Governors, already prepared for the snowball battle, held off the attackers. Governors scored an upset victory the previous night after the two armies met accidentally in the Heath. With the pride of Ellicott at stake, resident Leight Weber contacted Governor’s A1 Widman and demanded a rematch. A band of about 150 Ellicottians began their march toward Governors a few minutes before nine o’clock. Barbarian shouts such as “rape and plunder” and “Ellicott Bombaye” were heard throughout the march along with Weber’s shouts of “Wait, wait.” - Surprise Arriving a little early, they took about 100 Governorites by surprise and quickly forced them up the hill surrounding the complex. Among the early casualties were the Governors front line, including those manning the bus shelter. Slowly Ellicott advanced, pushing the beleaguered defenses into the tunnel between Roosevelt and Lehman. But the Governors defenses fortified, and the Ellicott forces, running out of ammunition, were forced to retreat. They returned to Ellicott battered and defeated, and casualties on both sides were limited. From the start, Ellicott’s attack was unorganized. There were no real leaders and no specific plan of attack to make use of their superior numbers. For instance, they split in two separate groups, one on the main road and the other through the parking lot. Their strategic mistake was twofold. First, advancing into the tunnel without adequate ammunition, and second, stationing their forces where the snow did not pack well. Shit snow The day’s blizzard had deposited over two feet of the white stuff on the Amherst Campus, but that didn’t necessarily mean good snowballs. “This stuff packs like shit,” one Ellicottian observed. One of his colleagues asserted that shit might have been better for the attack. The good packing snow was released but Governors got to it first due to their designated snow removers. (The snow removers cleared off the top level of soft snow so the throwers could get to the’ good packing stuff underneath.) Another problem encountered by both sides was identification. Jack Mydlo, snowball in hand, helped up a fallen soldier. “Hey are you Ellicott or Governors?” Mydlo asked the victim. When the reply was Governors, Mydlo placed the snowball squarely in his new friend’s face. Why was the battle so well attended? “What else is there to do?” explained Governors’ Steve Schneider. “Everyone’s stuck out here. There are no busses and the cars are snowed in,” he added. Many Ellicottians showed up intending to capture Governors while Schneider contended that the Governorites wanted to prove their previous night’s victory was not a fluke. Governors remains undefeated this season, with its next opponent Goodyear-Clement, which drew a bye this week. CLASSIFIED tTN body only. Room 355 Tues., Wed. or Thurs. 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Make offer.

Strikers rally passes two Attica proposals One hundred students participating in Monday’s student strike met in Norton Hall’s Fillmore Room to hear speakers from various campus groups and the presentation of two proposals for action. Pauline Lipman, parent of a child in the Day Care Center, spoke of the crisis stages that capitalism is currently undergoing and the protests against cut-backs in funding here and at other universities. These include the City University of New York (CUNY), MIT, Brandeis, Boston College and Brooklyn College. “The victory of the Indo-Chinese people against the most powerful, imperialistic nation shows what the people, when united, can do,” Ms. Lipman surmised. Oppression Bruce Solway, a representative of Attica Now, discussed tactics “in the battle against oppression.” Basically, they involve a “show of strength, then a backing up. This is taken as a sign of weakness by the oppressors,” Mr. Solway explained. He said the oppression carried out against the students here is similar to that brought against the Attica Brothers although there is a difference in degree. Liz Kennedy of the Women’s Studies College described the and struggles of oppressed peoples workers, women and students the need for unity among all groups. “The four demands are equal to general demands for control over one’s life,” she said, stating that faculty and staff members could be persecuted by Dr. Ketter as easily as eight students facing expulsion. “The struggle for a person’s control over his job is the same as the student’s struggles,” she said. “This can be used as a broad base for used — - building together.” Two proposals Barney Oursler from the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) then presented two separate proposals for approval by thos in attendance. The first proposal includes a huge petition drive to obtain signatures from members of the University and community to refute Dr. Ketter’s claim that only a few hundred people are supporting the UB eight (formerly 10) and the Attica Brothers. The petitions will be gathered at 9:30 a.m. today, examined and discussed, and a delegation will deliver them to Dr. Ketter.

Amherst (between Youngmann Expy. & Maple Rd:) Page two The Spectrum Wednesday, 7 May 1975 . . { Increased crime on campus spurs literature circulation by Howard Greenblatt Contributing Editor The Student Committee on Dormitory Security released statistics Monday showing that more crimes have been reported by residents of the Ellicott Complex than the Governor’s Residence Hall and Main Street Campus dormitories combined. According to the figures, compiled from incident reports submitted to Campus Security and Housing, 54.3 percent of all crimes reported between September and March occurred at Ellicott, 30 percent at Main Street and 15.7 percent at project from the Inter-Residence Council Advice The Committee also plans to talk with them students, individual of advising crime-prevention procedures, and what to do in the event of an actual crime. There are many ways in which dormitory crimes may be curtailed, Mr. Treglia said. As one preventative measure, students should lock their doors before they go to sleep, the Committee admises. Students should also be on guard against Governor’s. The fact-finding group, comprised of eight dormitory residents, also determined that more crimes (37.8 percent) occur between 6 p.m. and 1 a.m. than any other time of the day. “This is the time when many students are out of their rooms, visiting friends, with their doors unlocked,” said Steve Treglia, a spokesperson for the group. The time during which the least amount of crime is reported is between 8 a.m. and noon, which this year accounted for only 4.7 percent of reported crimes. Crimes will increase The Committee believes the statistics indicate that crime will increase significantly this year over last. Exactly 154 crimes of various sorts were reported last year. Although only 127 crimes were recorded this year, the figure does not include the crimes which were reported between March and May. A significant number of crimes occur during this three-month time period, according to the Committee. The Student Committee on Dormitory Security was formed following several meetings concerning crime prevention which were held in response to a sexual assault in Clement Hall last month. Among the Committee’s immediate objectives is to distribute a publication to incoming freshman and returning students with detailed observations and suggestions about crime in the dorms. The Committee hopes to get financial assistance for the suspicious looking individuals walking around the dorms, especially since trespassing is the most frequently reported violation. Mr. Treglia advises that students keep their doors locked while carrying their belongings out of the dorms at the end of the semester. Students frequently carry some of their belongings to the car and leave the rest in their rooms unattended. “A significant amount of theft may occur at that timei” | Mr. Treglia warned'/ H As a long term objective, the Committee hopes to establish an effective alternative security system. ,. �Student strike Student Assembly considers budgets of several groups by Laura Bartlett Contributing Editor The STudent Assembly, in a four and a half hour meeting Monday afternoon in the Fillmore Room, finished iiiitial consideration of the Finance Committee’s recommended budgets for next year.

It was brought up several other times during the meeting, and the matter will probably be considered before the the Assembly adjomed for semester. The $75 allocation for Circolo Italiano, a new club, was tabled immediately after one of its organizers advocated an increase. Italian large cited a She population in the Buffalo area, and the potential for a variety of social and cultural activities as reasons for the request. An attempt to table all the 28 Academic Club’s budgets failed, however. ‘Count-um-up’ Assembly Chairperson Art Lalonde became annoyed at this motion, and informed academic club members that unless the budgets were acted upon by the Assembly within two days, they would go to the Executive Committee. “Count ’urn gang two days!” he said. Mr. Lalonde said he was displeased at the prospect of holding the meetings even for the next two days. “How many of you are wiling to miss your exams or not study to come to this ridiculous thing?” he asked. Assembly Sylvia member Goldschmidt became incensed over the Assemblu’s attempts to cut the small clubs’ budgets. “This is an academic institution! The priority should be on these clubs!” she declared, charging that -the Assembly is composed largely of “special interest groups” who are concerned only with “their own baby.” discussion point, this At became especially heated, as the suspended rules were to - reconsider the $28,000 approved allocation for the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG). Steve Assembly {member his presenting in Milligram, motion to but the NYPIRG organization back to $18,00), said “everybody seems to be hurting for money except” certain special interest groups which he termed including “The Bug Four,” NYPIRG. He contended that the money could better de used elsewhere. Several NYPIRG spokespersons the organizations’ defended financial need and activities, insisting that $28,000 was “just enough to scrape along.” The cut to $18,000 was not approved, but Assembly member Bert Black’s proposal to but the NYPIRG budget to $20,000 was. NYP1RG member Marty Brooks became enraged, burling his chair across the room. In an emotional appeal to the Assembly, former NYPIRG director Richard Sokolow contended that if the cut stood, “thre will be no NYPIRG.” He state claimed that the organization of PIRGs would refuse to accept an organization with such a meager budget. After Mr. Sokolow finished speaking. Assembly member John Sullivan accused him of ignoring a request he had made for NYPIRG to lobby for a certain bill, which was going to be voted on at the time he allegedly gave the information to Mr. Sokolow. He accused Mr. Sokolow of showing up at an appointed lobbying place alone, two hours late. Mr. Sokolow became enraged, shouting “I’ve been slandered!” budget NYPIRG was The subsequently reconsidered, and raised to $25,000. The heated discussions continued as the remainder of the Academic Club budgets were considered. The Undergraduate Council of History Students’ for $500 allocation of “Bicentennial” activities was attacked by members of the Assembly. One noted that ranked students had the bicentennial celebration as their lowest priority in the student activity survey taekn early this year. Let them know However, a club member contended that the club wanted to “let the students know what were tabled. A co-op spokesperson requested the action until “legal difficulties” can be cleared up, whiile EOP members hope for an increase in their allocation. The budgets for the U.B. Vets and Gay Liberation were both approved. One Assembly member attacked the Gay Liberation allocation, claiming that because a number of the Group’s members and students grad are non-students, it should no be the of the responsibility undergraduate SA to fund them. Co-op Forum needed In reaction to the Assembly members’ giggles and comments about the club, Assembly member David Chavis called for an increase in the allocation, asserting that group is dedicated to the “dispelling the kind of ignorance that is being displayed here” through speakers and social activities. “They definitely need a forum for presenting their views,” he said. The $300 allocation was approved, as were the budgets of all the international clubs. A request by Iranian Club members to table their budget pending an increase was denied. At this point, several hours after the meeting began, members started drifting out of the Fillmore Room, including Mr. Chavis. Jokingly, a member called for reconsideration of CAC’s budget (Mr. Chavis is CAC’s director) to intice Mr. Chavis to return to the room. However, Mr. motion Lalonde took the the members, seriously, and laughing, approved it. After the joking subsided. Assembly member Abdul Wahaab moved to cut $3000 from the CAC publications line.

The first vote was a 14-14 tie, at which point Mr. Lalonde called for a two minute recess. It was voted upon again and was 12 18. Assembly defeated member Bert Black then moved line out publications the completely, a total of $4200. At this point, Mr. Sullivan asserted that considering cuts in under these budget CAC’s circumstances was “the most assine thing I’ve ever seen this Assembly do. “I’ve been known to do some really happened furing — . for later consideration. All the Hobby Club budgets were passed untouched, except the Debate Club, whose $2,755 allocation was cut to $2,000. Assembly member John Burgess proposed the cut, claiming the club “was never funded at it’s level until Frank Jackalone was President of it” several years ago. The proposal was approved above the objections of several present club members present. The budgets of the EOP Student Association and Record — pretty assine things myself,” he admitted, “but this is incredible.” Mr. Lalonde pointed out that the original joker who had moved to reconsider the budget in the first place now regretted it. motion was Black’s Mr. defeated, and the Assembly adjorned when most of the members left the room.

Because of the large size of this University, “many white students don’t know what’s going on in respect to minority students,” Mr. Bassett explained. He said the Equal Opportunity Program (EOP) was created in response to student unrest in the 1960’s, to bring “a visible number of black students to the campuses.” The government believed the “natives were restless, so they started giving us money,” Mr. Bassett explained. Although the program was originally designed for inner-city blacks and Puerto Ricans, it is now 40 percent white, he noted, which he feels is an effort to “substitute black students for white students.” Additionally, Mr. Bassett feels that “a black student’s college degree is worth less than a white student’s,” and that blacks are considered “educated niggers.” Most black students are not in the “money making fields like physics, medicine or law,” Mr. Bassett indicated. This is not necessarily because of racism; it may be due to the poor high school background of many blacks, he continued. termed the recent Attica Mr. Bassett demonstrations “bullshit” because they “just don’t phase [President Robert] Ketter.” However, he said Dr. Ketter is not the “real enemy.” The people with all the money “run the show,” and “have produced an atmosphere of hate which has skillfully divided blacks and whites.” Mr. Bassett concluded the workshop by calling for black and white unity, instead of “playing right into their hands.” Wednesday, 7 May 1975 The Spectrum Page three . . �Out on the sreet: Cortland students fighting for rooms by Laura Bartlett Staff Writer More than 1,000 students at the State University College at Cortland (SUC) last week demonstrated an against administration decision that may force several hundred dormitory residents to seek off-campus housing next year.

(9.00 TICKETS AVAILABLE AT—- City. wquwd) UB/NORTON HALL ft TICKETRON OUTLETS �Questions raised about tax-free contributions Editor’s Note: The following article was researched by the Buffalo Committee for Chilean Democracy. A Buffalo pharmaceutical firm sent a letter to the Internal Revenue Service inquiring why the Buffalo Committee for Chilean Democracy has an account that is used to send tax deductable donations to Chilean refugess, The Spectrum has learned. The February 13 letter from the Mentholatum Company was obtained from the IRS by the Chilean Committee under the Freedom of Information Act. It is addressed to District Director of Internal Revenue Herbert Mosher. A copy was also sent to President Robert Ketter. In his letter, Mentholatum President George Hyde referred to recent events sponsored by the Chile Committee and indicated that his company was interested in the matter because it “recently made a substantial investment in Chile.” Mr. Hyde noted that he received circulars announcing a March 6 conference at the State .University at Buffalo, sponsored by the Chile Committee and other groups, “at which two well-known communists will be speaking at our state-owned University.” Association seen The three speakers were Orlando Letelier, former Chilean ambassador to the U.S. during the Allende administration, Edward Boorstein, former economist in the Central Bank of Chile and a representative from the North American Congress on Latin America (NACLA). “Obviously, we cannot control the politics that are presented at U.B. However, it is apparent that there is an overthrown by the Chilean military in a bloody coup September 1 1, 1973 with the help of the CIA. status bf donations was a fuzzy area in IRS Chilean committee association between this Committee and the communist group,” the letter states. The letter also cited another event sponsored by the Chile Committee, a Benefit Concert for Chile, in which contributions for refugee aid were advertised as “tax deductible.” In a telephone interview Monday, Mr. Hyde said the purpose of the letter was to focus attention on how the Chile Committee was sponsoring what appears to be a political meeting. “To me, this did not seem to be legitimate,” he said. Donations questioned Donations for humanitarian causes are usually eligible for tax- deductible status, but donations for political causes generally are not. The IRS could not be reached for comment. Mr. Hyde said he was uncertain if the money going for was political or humanitarian causes, and that he was “just bringing this to the attention of the IRS.” He recalled that he became interested in whether the money was going for political causes through a political cartoon which appeared on a Chile Committee circular he received in the mail. The cartoon depicted Chile being swallowed up by the military junta, he said. Mr. Hyde’s suggestion that the donations were being used for political causes “would not stand up for a minute” because the money was “clearly for the relief of refugees,” according to Rev. Thomas Stewart, pastor of the Westminster Church, to whom Mr. Hyde sent a copy of the letter. ‘Fuzzy area’ Rev. Stewart said the tax-deductible a lovin' glassful law, and that these laws had been used as intimidation in the past. “Like any American businessman who Chile, has financial interests in [Mentholatum] is more interested in having the present facist regime,” remain in power, Rev. Stewart asserted. According to Dun and Bradstreet, the Mentholatum Company is owned primarily by the Hyde family. Its securities are not listed on the open market. The company exports and various drug produces products, pharmaceuticals and ointments. known products Its best are Mentholatum, Mentholatum Medicated Stick and Mentholatum Deep Heating Rub. The parent company had sales of $7 million last year. The Mentholatum Company is also a holding company for several foreign subsidiaries. Although only 75 employees work in the Buffalo plant, the company has 1000 employees world-wide. Subsidiary One of the subsidiaries is Mentholatum Inter-American, which has various types of management facilities in Peru, Argentina, Colombia, Mexico and Chile. A spokesman from the Chile Committee said the letter “is an example of how U.S. corporations support the present military dictatorship in Chile. “The military regime has earned the repudiation of the entire world by its destruction of democracy and its routine torture and murder of political prisoners. The Chilean generals have guaranteed high like profits foreign investors, to Mentholatum, by banning all trade unions and drastically reducing the wages of company that has returned to Important ties Samuel Magavern, one of the Directors of Mentholatum, is also a director of Dow Corporation. A spokesman for the Chile Committee noted, “While the Mentholatum Company maintains its profitable relation in Chile, the military dictatorship continues to terrorize the population.” According to Newsweek, the “military government of General Augusto Pinochet Ugarte has made fear and torture almost a way of life in the government, including the large copper mines owned by Kennecott and Anaconda. a In retaliation, virtual economic was stranglehold placed on the constitutionally-elected Chilean government by the United States and the multilateral banks, promoting instability Chile.” was government another Chile. Dun and according Chemical, to Bradstreet. The Board of Directors of Mentholatum also have important ties to the Buffalo financial community. Mr. Magavern is a director of Liberty National Bank. Albert Hyde, Chairman of the Board of Mentholatum, is a director of the Bank of and the Buffalo Midland Capital workers.” Under the Allende administration in Chile, many industries were taken over by within the country. The Allende Real earnings drop After the coup, in which thousands of Chileans were massacred, the Chilean military returned factories to their former owners and paid Anaconda and Kennecott several hundred million dollars for the copper mines. Under wage controls, with strikes illegal and unions banned, real earnings of workers dropped about six percent, according to the April edition of Monthly Review. At the same time, the Chilean military welcomed foreign investments, and with real wages so low, corporations saw a chance for larger profits. According to Mr. Hyde’s letter, Mentholatum was one company that made a recent “substantial investment in Chile.” The big three auto makers are also considering investments in Chile. Although many auto workers are unemployed in the United States and unemployment in Buffalo has reached 15 percent, the auto makers are seeking larger profits from cheap Chilean labor.

Although the cooperative is now fully occupied, there will be vacancies in the summer and fall. There are presently 13 men and nine women in residence, but the cooperative hopes to attain a “balance of the sexes,” and encourages more women to inquire. The cooperative maintains a strict policy of non-discriminations, and residents of all races, creeds and national origin are welcome. The boarding of pets is not encouraged, however. Aside from occasional mild conflicts, the cooperative provides a cheerful residential atmosphere. As one cooperative dweller stated, “Everyone pulls his own weight around here, each person takes his or her turn at cooking or washing once a week and is content with the house’s rules and standards.” The cooperative has its own internal laws agreed upon by the boarders. Residents gather for a weekly group meeting to discuss internal business and a treasurer is appointed each month to handle all financial arrangements. “This way there is no hassle of putting up with authority,” one resident said. The house maintains close ties with Tolstoy and Women Studies College. Residents agree that in order to live successfully at the cooperative, one must become “emotionally involved” with the other residents. The residents admit, however, that a lack of privacy can sometimes be a problem, and that the initial is often adjustment period difficult. Wednesday, 7 May 1975 The Spectrum Page five . . �Criticism of PIRG funding commissioner of agriculture for the state. “Our only contest is that they use the university to help them build up a big war is rising chest.” on many campuses (CPS) Critics on some college campuses have zeroed in on Public Interest Research Groups (PIRG), labeling their funding processes unethical. The PIRG movement was founded and initially funded by Ralph Nader in Washington four years ago. Over 20 states have viable student PIRGs which are staffed by professionals and students with a student decision-making board. PIRGs have worked to uncover abuses affecting the elderly (hearing aid and drug prices), workers (job hazards), consumers (pollution, utility rates, fraud and credit abuses) and tenants. Most PIRGs are funded by a self-imposed student tax of $4 to $5 a year which is tacked onto the tuition sum. Any students unwilling to support their PIRG will receive a full tax refund, and if at any time more than 50 percent of the student body requests tax refunds, the contract is automatically annulled. The grey areas are whether PIRGs have a right to mandatorily tax the students first, then offer a refund, and whether universities should be allowed to act as PIRG’s dues collectors. The funding opponents are challenging PIRGs nationwide on various counts. of 'Missouri’s University student association does not support MPIRG because it claims there is wide student disinterest and contends the funding method is not truly voluntary. At Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, an anti-PIRG party has emerged which contends that many students are unaware of how to apply for a refund and have difficulty obtaining their money. The party has also charged that a number of signatures were obtained through pressure, and that PIRG has never been held up for approval by the entire student body. The PIRG petition issue has also raised a squabble at the University of Florida where the Vice President for Student Affairs charged, “the original petition isn’t valid anymore because it - * doesn’t represent the current student body.” He went on to express concern that other groups will want to establish themselves on campus through the same student funding system that PIRG plans to use. PIftGs have also faced pressure from outside interest groups. When Minnesota PIRG (MPIRG) went before the Board of Regents to renew its contract collect fees through the university, it faced hurdles set up by agricultural and chemical corporate interests opposed to MPIRG’s stand on stronger regulation of pesticides, The corporate interests questioned the university’s right to collect fees. “PIRGs shouldn’t be involved in public issues with funds from the universities,” said Ralph deputy Goodin, to • The PIRGs’ defense rests more on the need for student support than on a justification for their unique funding method. If the mandatory fee was eliminated “that would mean the end of MPIRG as we know it,” said director Bob Hudnut. PIRGs have claimed they educate the public and offer necessary and helpful services. The group’s greatest worth lies in its ability to influence decisions, said a spokesman for NYP1RG. LINGUISTICS “We have at our disposal the resources to gather the facts, have experts evaluate the situations and wield great influence on legislative efforts,” he said. And Nader himself piped up in support of PIRGs in a recent syndicated column. “College students have always been met with opposition when they try to assume adult citizen responsibilities,” said Nader. “They are told to confine themselves to their books and ‘get an education.’ It is as if ‘getting an education’ does not include studying society’s problems and testing their understanding in civic efforts.” • STUDENTS SPECIALIZING IN: American Studies, Anthropology, Classics, Computer Science, Education, Engineering, English, Mathematics, Modern Languages, the Sciences, Theatre and Law.

So here it is the quasi official Top Twelve most hated students on campus. The list was conceived by The Spectrum Sports Editor Bruce, Engel, who had visions of winning the grand prize, but was beaten out by Speaker’s Bureau Chairman Stan Morrow, who promptly leaked the news to the Buffalo Evening News making himself more hated than ever. Only Engel and The Spectrum Special Features Editor Clem Colucci had significant roles in drawing up the final rankings, although they received a lot of well thought out input. It should be noted that most of the winners that were contacted enjoyed the distinction. Indeed, it should be obvious from the list that one had to be bold enough to do something significant in order to incur people’s ire. We found that most people on the list thought they should be higher, and several that weren’t included who thought they should be. Apparently it is in to be hated. Here is the list with some explanations: — 1. Stan Morrow: The incredibly unpopular Speaker’s Bureau Chairman pissed off most of the Student Assembly and a lot of flic student body with his blunt stand on the William Kuiwler controversy. Stan also made few friends by contracting speakers like Ronald Reagan, Ronald Zeigler and Lois Lane. la. Leigb Weber: Because he is out of office, the former hated President of IRC is ineligible, but we felt we had to cite him anyway. Leigh began by contracting speakers like Ronald Regan, Ronald floor that wanted to buy dope with IRC funds. lb. Unfortunately, we don’t know who has been drawing those swastikas on the Amherst Campus. If we did, he would definitely head the list. 2. Bruce Engel: Throughout the year. The Spectrum's controversial Sports Editor has incurred the wrath of the Athletic Department, the athletes, the SA and the administration because his yellow journalism has been critical of everyone. Engelphobia reached its peak in February when a group of disgruntled athletes demanded and nearly got, his resignation. 3. Larry Williams: The outspoken President of the Black Student Union first made a najne for himself on the top of a table last spring. The Student Assembly, which was trying to meet at the time, didn’t appreciate it. 4. Warren Breisblatt: Almost forgotten but not gone, Warren is now a graduate student. He still has a lot of hate left over from undergraduate days as SARB Chairman as well as a long running feud with a certain campus newspaper. 5. Alan Rosenberg: Some SO students crowded in the hall outside Al’s room last November waiting for him to show his face. A chartered flight that was to have taken them home for Thanksgiving was cancelled. Rosenberg had booked the flight and they were out for his ass. 6. Mike Phillips; A Norton hack from way back, his defensive and abrasive fiscal policy, has won him few friends. 7. Rich Sokolow: The self-righteous NYPIRG director seems too altruistic to believe. Therefore no one does. Rich shows his true colors at budget time, when he stops carrying the burden of the world on his shoulders and accuses anyone who questions his budget line of being a shill for ITT. Mr. Sokolow recently achieved notoriety after accusing former SA hack Dave Saleh of using CIA funds to finance his best-selling novel The Joe Vetter Story. 8. Mitch Regenbogen: Known for puffing smoke in people’s faces and working his writers to the bone, The Spectrum Campus Editor is even disliked by his own mother, who was quoted as saying he is “a sick bastard.” 9. Larry Kraftowitz: Caught senselessly in the middle of every issue, The Spectrum Editor-in-Chief has inflamed both sides in every single instance. Numerous promises to print things that subsequently did not get printed have reduced his public image to a level lower than his private one. Turkey! 10. John Sullivan: The brawling, bruising, gossiping Irishman has displayed little tact in his political analyses and had few freinds outside of Clark Hall. 11. The Entire Attica Defense Committee: For lacking manners and dominating the SA Office, this group has established a stance that is difficult to be neutral on. Nonetheless, with finals breathing down our backs, very few people care. 12. Michele Smith: SA Presidents are hated be definition. Look for Michele to go up in the ratings quickly. now Honorable Mention: Sparky Alzamora, Bert Black, Dave Chavis, Clem Colucci, Bruce “Lumpa” Drucker, Judy Friedler, Frank Jackalone, Peter Jarzyna, Mike Jones, Paul Kade, Michael Stephen Levinson, Paige Miller, Sam Prince, Everyone from Plainview, Howard Schapiro and Jim and Judy Young. Michael O’Neill, who was originally in the top 12 was demoted to the ranks of the honorably mentioned after he edited this story. Mr. O’Neill is without a doubt, the sickest bastard in Buffalo. Furthermore, we hate anyone who has been foolish enough to take this drivel seriously. But the list is not a list of people we hate, but of those who in our judgment are hated most in the University community. The plain fact is that many of them are pretty nice people. One last thought- We notice the list has only one female, and she is twelfth. Obviously, we will be hated for sexism.

This is because all but a few refuse to become involved in progressive efforts; for" the overwhelming majority, there is no connection between their own lives and the policy-making that goes on behind closed doors at an educational institution. But any hopes for making a dent in University decision-making rest with the ability of student leaders to personalize important issues for large numbers of their constituents. The events surrounding the arrests of 10 students here are a good illustration of the obstacles facing those committed to change. When news first broke of President Robert Ketter's decision to remove the demonstrating students from Hayes Hall by force, many usually unconcerned students seemed genuinely outraged at the administration's rash and repressive tactics. The reasons for this break from apathetic stride were two-fold: in the first To the Editor. place, the administration's misunderstanding of the factors Before I express my violent disgust over the which cause and prevent such disruptions was so apparent conduct of the members of the SA and certain leftist that even the most callous individual could be genuinely groups on this campus concerning the Attica trials, 1 inflamed by what happened.

My objection, however, is to the fact that this University’s (God forbid) student leaders expect us to attempt to plead with, cajole, bribe, threaten, terrorize, and otherwise influence a jury. Do they really think that aught we say would affect a court decision? Should it? Would it not be the greatest injustice of all in the legal system if the courts were ruled by (pardon the expression, but barf) mobocracy? I realize that the aforementioned machiavellian groups would justify any action they take to sway others on the grounds that their point of view is “right.” In opposition to that, let me point out that the American Nazi Party or other inane white power organizations, who are equally convinced that they are God’s gift to the world of politics, could just as easily have been demonstrating Who (besides myself) would cry the loudest if their protests were heeded by the jury?

In reply, Ketter encircled the building with Campus dogs. Dr. Siggelkow warned the group that non-students failing to leave the gathering within 5 minutes would be subject to arrest and prosecution for criminal trespass, while students would risk expulsion from the University. In complete disregard of this statement, we were assaulted within 3 minutes by Campus Security officers. My friend and I, locked arm in arm, were dragged down the steps of Hayes and handcuffed to the chain fence outside. Meanwhile, Campus Security shattered a door-window inside the building, scattering shards of glass on unprotected students. In all, ten students were arrested, arraigned and suspended to face charges before the University Hearing Committee on the Maintenance of Public Order. In view of the many inaccuracies in the news coverage of the Friday incident, we ask any witnesses of our arrest, or our activities prior to arrest, who would be willing to testify at our hearings to please contact us at 252 Crescent Ave. (tel. 838-6132; 833-3750), or through Student Legal Aid (Norton 340; tel. 831-5275). Similarly, we urge that witnesses of the activities and arrest of any other students under suspension or potential expulsion also inform Legal Aid or the Student Association (Norton 205; tel. 831-5507). To blame ten individuals, in the few split seconds of their arbitrary arrest, for the violence authorized by the University administration, is to show a flagrant misconception of the purposes of student group assembly. In our opinion these actions indicate that this University administration is scarcely able to communicate with its student body at any level save that of bureaucracy or force. The Foreward to the rules of the Hearing Committee states; “A university is a community based on a shared commitment to reasoned discourse, constructive change, and a better society composed of better men and women. The central purpose of discipline within a university is to maintain and protect that commitment and not to enforce a criminal code.” Is 'that so? The University stands accused. Gary J. Gleba Alex van Oss �Use your mind To the Editor. After reading some of the letters to The Spectrum in Wednesday’s issue, it occurred to me that some members of the University community have accepted as fact several erroneous allegations. With regard to Mr. Saunders opinion, I should like to inform him that no (emphasis in triplicate) “ice pick” was ever found either on the accused person or in the vicinity of where the alleged “attack” was to have taken place. Furthermore, if he would look closely at the sequence of pictures taken by a member of the Ethos staff, and published in the same issue in which his letter appeared, he would notice several members of Campus Security placing extremities in very precarious positions, i.e., through a broken window. He might also notice that the broken glass was being propelled towards the students, a physical impossibility were the students to have initiated that violent incident. I greatly appreciate his support of the Attica defendants but implore him to get his facts straight before taking the reports of a conservative news journal at face value. In addition, has it been established that students “tore down the material of the Royal .?” Circus I have no such respect for the inane comments of Mr. Lo Vullo. His attitude I find deplorable, and worse, typical of the sentiments which allowed Ketter to exercise the irresponsible power that caused the abhorable violence on Friday a week ago. I do not know what it was in his upbringing that causes him to react so irrationally, but he does have my fullest sympathies in his pitiable plight. If he considers it “stupid” for autonomous people to express their dissatisfaction at a system of gross injustice, then I would like to know what his opinion is of the individuals who raised their voices nearly two centuries ago. Undoubtedly he accepts all of the propaganda handed to us by “our” administration and, on a higher level, government. He represents the m indless mass that corrupt elites delight in . — *' « flfllllln * . • manipulating. Finally, his seeming objection to violence is more than negated by his willingness to “bust heads,” and further by his addiction to one of the most violent “games” in our history. I challenge him to use his mind (a novel experience, no doubt), and find out for himself just what happened on the 13th of September in 1971. I fail to understand how he can talk about learning when it is obvious he is here only to be handed someone elses opinion erroneously tabled “truth.” Mike, for your sake and everyone elses, take your head out of the sand! • , William Ickes Less representation To the Editor. Concerning Bert Black’s Guest Opinion ( The Spectrum April 18). Bert, your argument that less representatives will result in more representation is pure trash, and judging by your statement “There will probably be more!!” I get the impression you know it’s trash. No matter how many exclamation points you use, you can’t deny the fact that the fewer the representatives, the less democractic the gov’t. It has always worked that way, and your new constitution won’t change that. Under the old constitution, anyone who wants to join the Assembly needs only forty signatures and they can vote. Simple and direct. Under the new constitution, onw would have to join a Task Force, from which he/she might get elected to vote in the Senate, provided the 45 seats aren’t already full. The old way, anyone could join the Assembly at any time. Not so under the new Constitution. Once those seats are taken, forget it. I know that I just don’t have the time to futz •with Task Forces and elections just to have my voice heard, and I doubt if many people here do. Therefore, the only people you’ll have in gov’t are those who have plenty of time to put into getting elected, and I’ve seen where those people are at. Let’s not fuck-up this student gov’t, by making it more efficient and less accessible. Elections have never yielded much representation in the past, so let’s not make our gov’t, totally dependent on them. Keep the Assembly democratic. Make more representatives, not less. , Kevin Crane Bert, if you can’t see anything wrong with a P.S. decrease in club and interest group representation, then maybe you shouldn’t be where you are. I wonder about people who solve their problems by taking away representation. - Don’t look now, but we seem to have done in another year. Which seems to happen with amazing regularity. It seems like just yesterday that I was welcoming in 1975 by breaking all the resolutions that I had made in the last dwindling hours of *74. But that seems to be the way of it. One never keeps up with everything or should that be anything? Time slips by with disruptive regularity and singluar stealth. It consistantly runs from us, taking us with it whether we would rather so, or no. Forgive my metaphysical pretentions. |1| ”C Ending frequently cause me to channel my anxiety into philosophical musings, Ul Ulim Which are, after all, certainly no harder to cope with than a speech by President Kissinger or by Steese Secretary Ford. (It being hard to tell who runs what these days, I decided to experiment a little. In this case reversing the titles doesn’t help much, even if it is realistic.) Which brings us to the first digression of the week. Realism. What is it, and how do you in the quarter to make the score 5—3 at the half, literature known as Science Fiction (notable was the absence of the great controversy of the past over what else to call the stuff besides Science Fiction). Organized and well-attended, it seemed all in all, to be an interesting and pleasurable experience. Samuel R. Delany, current Butler Chair of Anglish, and a leading light of the “less concerned with science than with writing least most of the time” school of S.F. assembled a goodly collection of bright and lucid people who seemed to find no need to died each other’s blood. All of same combined to make the series of panels on Saturday entertaining and exciting. The exciting part frequently had to do with reality for me. And if not Kenmore’s greater experience and knowledge of lacrosse as the decisive factor in the lately. Ever since I saw A Woman Under the Influence for example, 1 have been struggling to get my feet under one in a different kind of way. After seeing said film, I have been looking for something solid to stamp on. There is a scene, from the Tolkien trilogy which stays with me at times like e this. 1 am quite sure I have mentioned it here at some previous time when 1 was feeling disconnected. The scene involves, Gimle the Dwarf, stamping on the stones of Helm’s Deep and saying that there is good rock beneath his feet, that the country has tough bones. There is something very alove in that image for me. Some part of me finds great reality, subjective or otherwise, in the idea of having a solid place to put your feet, and it is very important that it be natural as opposed to man made. The Adirondacks, up near the St. Lawrence River, and many places in nothern Canada have such places where the bones of the land show through. As do so many wonderful places in the Rockies, American or Canadian, or along either the West Coast or the Maine coast but enough of travelogs. The point being that when parts of my head gets shaky, I remember places where I could stamp my feet on something — which stood without man’s help, or in spite of him, and somehow feel better. Scince Fiction for me is a place where authors can explore reality in a different way. Here we are able to find people and worlds which articulate someone else’s subjective reality, be it fear or wish. How owuld you see a world which had no rules? What would happen if we changed this “law” of nature, or that social convention? What is the slips by with disruptive regularity and singular stealth. It consistantly runs from us, freedom here to ramble, to explore, to enjoy that and for me, the relearning again Forgive my metaphysical pretentions. Endings frequently cause me to channel my - - - axiety I am not as smart as 1 would like to be. (Or as rich, thin, sexy or handsome but no matter). One of the ways this persistently manifests itself is in the lessons I must constantly relearn. My sense that much of our individual realities are subjective centers in the conepts of limits. The ways we choose to visualize and construct the limits we live by are obviously very diverse and complex. My version of reality sees many of them as being self-imposed, and at least somewhat accessible through struggle. The men and women who regularly try to write S.F. are engaged in struggling. A concept which would make most of them as self-conscious and wierd as it would me, if anyone were to say it to me. In some cognitive way, at the very least, they are pressing Samuel R. Delany, current Butler Chair of English, and a leading light of the “less well. An example used this weekend was a Robert Heinlien book in which he casually lets you know, three quarters of the way through the book, that the lead character is black. Which for some people is liable to make one wonder what it would be like to live in a world where such things really did matter that little. — We lived in a world where we are rewarded for learning the conventions of behavior, and frequently punished for violating them. This is a conditioning process which begins disturbingly early in most families. It goes on and on, through the educational and social system, attempting to implant “shoulds” and “oughts” so deeply that they will not be shaken by stress. Historically we called what the Chinese did to American you remember, the one Prisoners in Korea before Vietnam brain-washing. Stripped of its negative connotation it is not such a bad image. It implies the ability to decondition, to alter all the previous conditioning. Now if we could just figure out how to do it for ourselves, and very, very, selectively. There is something very alive in that image for me. Some part of me finds subjective realities attacked. It might pay to try to remember, whether you go or stay in fact, that the costs for having a different concept of reality are not usually as bad as implied. There is even the odd possibility barring doing serious physical damage to another human being, or harming big business that you might get away with it and even enjoy yourself. Little radicalism for the old parting shot, eh? Take care. - - — — Housing tinks To the Editor. We think it’s time dorm residents stop being exploited by Housing. Through its own discretion. Housing Maintenance can charge residents fines for such silly crimes as a window screen not being in place, even if it was out for one day while the student was washing his windows. Mind you, this is not a one dollar or two-dollar fine, but ten bucks. If the fine is not paid within a certain number of days, the bill is sent to Hayes A (Bursar’s office) where an additional five bucks is added in the process. It must then be paid along with the tuition bill or else grade reports and transcripts even the next semester’s registration, will be stopped. Even if the charges are unjustified and the student had his screen in the window, there is no way to prevent being charged. No one in the maintenance department will even discuss it. You can go to a janitor and he will send you to “Silly Val” who does nothing but giggle and offer ridiculous answers to your patient reasoning. Finally, if you can make any sense to her, she will send you to the next one up on the totem pole who ultimately refuses to talk to you “because he has been having too many complaints.” .,. . This is not the first time this has happened. Last semester, similar situations with lounge furniture in student rooms ($ 10 each item) and the great “screen scheme” was pulled off by Housing. We have not been singled out, in fact, this is about 60 people a shot. Sixty times ten dollars is $600. 1 wonder if some of this money might not be ending up in someone’s pocket? Housing used to at least give a warning to students and allow 24 hours to change whatever they were harping about, but recently they seem to prefer the “surprize method” (maybe because it brings in more money). If there is anyone reading this who has the authority to look into this matter, we ask that you do it because just today we got another note from “Val and her gang” that they will be conducting another thorough search through the dorm rooms in hopes of ripping off some more cash from students beginning April 28. Bob Wood John Caifa David Kamakaris Tom Kailboum Martin Kalter Eric Jeusur Mark Bilowns Yaron Helmer Joseph Rader Karen Price Pam Suppa �Thanks for the memories uest Opinio To the Editor. Since the time is arriving for a new Speakers Bureau Chairman to take office, I felt compelled to share a few thoughts with your readers. I would like to give my thanks and appreciation to all those that have expressed an interest in the program this year. It is with great admiration that I view those who commented so healthfully on the controversial programs of William Schockley, Ronald Regan, Ronald Ziegler and Lois “irrelevant” Lane. As a “sexist,” “elitist,” “racist,” and “fascist” I leave office with a great fulfillment knowing that various groups have fought so avidly and kept this University in an appropriate political scene and balance. by Ricky Yaverbaum When campus violence became a reality again two weeks ago in Hayes Hall, students had a first hand look at the governmental oppression that constantly erodes our civil liberties. The forceful Hall of students removal from Hayes demonstrating for the right to control their own the funds was another example how administration stifles those who make ‘waves’ here on campus, and would serve as a warning to those who might contemplate similar acts in the future. The subsequent suspension of the 10 students arrested shows President Robert Ketter’s desire to see the student movement at the University die of asphyxiation, or a lack of participation due to fear. He thinks the hard line against campus unrest will quell the sentiments of students. In reality. Dr. Ketter may have tightened the clamps on a pressure cooker. Campus Security’s mistruths about an alleged stabbing, the brute force of the arrests the and the ensuing suspensions were administration’s reaction to a concerned and politically active student body. In this University, we study the American self-expression. ideals of freedom and Unfortunately, when we leave the classroom we find that those designated to teach us these values are their biggest corruptors. Because of this, our rights seem to have become mere words on paper. The many American’s rights are now almost non-existent. Those the government labels undesirables have no rights at all. Files are kept, phones are tapped, friends are questioned. Entire lifestyles come under government scrutiny. These undesirables are persecuted at all costs, and the government covers up under the blanket of National Security. Political retribution against undesirables is a common phenomena in most nations, and the U.S. is no exception. Vice President Nelson Rockefeller has just as much to protect as Russian Communist Party Chief Leonid Brezhnev, if not more. At Attica, Mr. Rockefeller had no regard for the inmates’ lives. According to his view, these people were in prison for a reaon. They were animals who could not live in our society, the society that made Rockefeller a billionaire and tomorrow. Stan Morrow Chairman, Speakers Bureau Interdependence essential To the Editor. The following information, given to us by one of our staff, should be of interest to students and — faculty at this University. On April 29, Governor Carey rejected the 6 percent raise for civil service workers recommended by his fact-finding board. At the same time, he approved a $15,000 raise for Lieut. Gov. Mary Ann Krupsak the same raise, incidentally, Mr. Krupsak had promised during her campaign to reject if — elected. The irony underscores the serious situation of service workers, including staff in this University. A Grade three typist makes under $6,000 a year, for example, and it takes a Grade nine Senior Stenographer about nine years to reach the $9,500 level. The majority of State workers are in positions grade nine or under, all earning less than $10,000. While Ms. Krupsak enjoys her great salary increase. University staff are denied even a small part of the cost of living increases needed to move back into the economic world of the living. University and Faculty students should recognize the degree to which their interests, the University’s well being, and elemental equity for staff workers are all mutually dependent. We join out staff in urging all concerned to support CSEA and to write in protest to Governor Carey and to Mary Ann Krupsak. civil Michael Frisch A cling Director for the American Studies Program the inmates welfare recipients. These people were sub-humans who had no legitimate claim to existence. Why should they have any rights? The bloodbath at Attica was a perfect illustration that they had no rights. The blame for all the death and blood at Attica was put on the inmates who didn’t get killed in the massacre at D-yard. Today, the persecution of these men continues in the Erie County Courthouse disguised as a legitimate, judicial proceeding. Actually, it is a vendetta against those who stood up for their basic rights as human beings. As economic conditions in the U.S. continue to go from bad to worse, we can expect this same oppression, only in larger doses. As more people are discontented, out of work and hungry, the government will face greater political opposition. It is certain that they will become tougher on dissident groups, and take a dimmer view of political activism. This trend is beginning; it is more apparent now in Buffalo. The FBI infiltration of the Attica defense, the railroading of Attica inmates, the violent handling of student dissention and the resultant paranoia among students are prime examples of government attempts at political and social control. The paranoia among students is shown by the unwillingness of demonstrators to be photographed by unidentified camera men. When citizens are afraid to be identified with a specific cause for fear of government reprisals, a crisis point has been reached. The growing fear of the government is justified. Students have seen the reprisals the government has brought upon the Attica Brothers. The arrests and suspensions of students are reprisals for campus political activism. Students must not be intimidated it’s time to stand up. We, here at the University, have seen these vicious attacks on the rights of all people. We watched our fellow students be dragged away and expelled for strong personal beliefs, and we watched Charlie Joe, and Dacajeweiah go to jail to pay for the crimes of others. We may watch many others go to jail before it’s all over. If this struggle wakes us up to what’s going on here in America, and moves us to stem the tide of growing governmental oppression, many people who won’t join us today, may thank us - - UUAB LITERARY ARTS announces J ----- BUSINESS MANAGER Available at: University Bookstore North Buffalo Food Co-op Everyones Bookstore The Spectrum j$ seeking applications for the position of Business Manager, for the 75/76 school year.

We have been reading The Spectrum throughout our UB years and would like to say we consider the front page of that issue the most creative yet.. Congratulations to Joel Reichard, his picture has no RIVAL. Chris Robinson Tom Robson Letter to Ketter Editor’s Note: The following letter was University President Robert Ketter. sent to In addition to the other issues that are facing the entire campus community, we would like to bring to your attention, another matter that should be of primary concern. We refer to the subject of tenure and promotion, and specifically, the recent decision you made, denying it to an assistant professor of the math department, Dr. Scott Williams. One of the main objectives of a school should be to provide an atmosphere where both learning and questioning are encouraged. Dr. Williams has conducted his courses and relationships with students in such a manner. Disregarding such a situation in the process of decision making results in preventing to its fullest potential. We would, therefore, like you to reconsider the decision you made denying tenure and promotion to Dr. Williams, in order that students may benefit from the education they attend a school to receive. Thank you for your consideration. I am appalled at the complete lack of critical abilities displayed by both editors, writers and contributors to The Spectrum. Indeed I am confronted by a general naive tone with full disonant orchestration every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I shall offer a few examples. Has it ever occurred to the person who complained about the non-enforcement of classroom smoking (April 16) that the law of which he demanded police enforcement is or could be used as an easy cover for police surveillance and entrapment of students? Did the head resident of Schoellkopf Hall, in demanding a hike in Ellicott dorm rents, realize that what he’s doing is playing the same tired game of making students compete amongst themselves instead of venting demands for free tuition, free room and decent living quarters, decreases in class size, etc. to the State which is the entity ripping us off?

Do your writers realize that sexism isn’t an issue that exists to be the butt of bowgie jokes and epithets? The roots of sex oppression are economic and cultural and are not over gymnasium use; that a state-administered Affirmative Action program is a design to fail? Is the slogan “Attica is all of us” just a slogan? Fred Friedman Red Balloon Collective Ketter like Attica To the Editor Students decided to sit-in in Hayes last Friday, to assert their right to determine where there own funds should be spent. The Ketter administration has usurpted those powers and refused to negotiate with us on any decent level. Ketter has refused to speak with the people and he still does. He is constatnly intimidating us and spreading untruths regarding our legitimate actions. In regards to the statement by Mr. Korman (Monday, The Spectrum ) that the students were “intensyfying their theatrics . . for film crews . . . while nervously waiting because of security guards with nightclubs and attack dogs,” how could anyone possibly expect people to perform theatrics in such a tense situation. Rather, as a member of that group may 1 inform everyone that it was a show of unity and strength. Ketter wanted to speak to five or six representatives. But the students had already been mislead enough and they did not want to be intimidated in close quarters where Ketter would have had all bargaining power to his advantage. The only way to keep what little room for bargaining which we kept by blocking the doorway, we had to stay, just as the Brothers had to take hostages in 1971 there was no alternative. Concerning Campus Security: they say that students broke the glass or they themselves did it but the students who were in front of accidentally the door were sitting down when nightsticks, elbows and arms of security officers bashed the glass all over the hallway, cutting some of the demonstrators. . Lawrence Altmayer Edward Bodrick Carol Podolsky toward paying off the interest on the mortgages on University buildings which the State overpaid for in the first place. It costs but a fraction of what we pay to keep the dorms open. Does The Spectrum realize the moral hypocrisy in printing ads selling the military-industrial complex, (ads for ROTC, Marine and Navy - — — Security officers then tried to pull people through the jagged remnants of the window, where upon they cut themselves. If free thought is to prevail in this University and society, then there is no room to allow public servants to distort fhe facts, as if the case here. They are the same type of malicious lies which first came out of Attica in 1971 (guards throats were slit, they were castrated, etc.) all later disproven on the backpages, whereas the sensationist lies got headlines and an impact which leaves 63 percent of the people in Western New York still believing them. Ketter has stated that acted Security “admirably” during Friday’s action. Rockefeller also congratualted his troopers on their “restraint” of force after they killed 40 and brutalized hundreds of inmates (McKay Commission Report on Attica). He also said that the April 2nd demonstration did not turn out to be educational. But the students who were there learned a frightening lesson our constitutional rights mean nothing when a judge decides to deny us our demonstration permit and to arrest peaceful demonstrators. The injustices perpetrated on the students in Hayes Hall by the Ketter administration goes on and on and is potentially dangerous to all students. It is • time that people start to do some “soul searching” and really look earnestly into the facts of the matter at hand it would be the greatest justice that people would do to those involved and themselves. The stand that the Attica Brothers took in 1971 and the Stand that the UB students took last Friday was for all of our rights. Attica truly is all of us! — - Morrie Fox NYPIRG ARE YOU INTERESTED IN SCIENCE? OR IN MATH?

Page eleven . �Old but not forgotten Loneliness and poverty fought with social services by Dene Dube Feature Editor In primitive regions of Alaska, when a citizen grows old and begins having difficulty functioning for survival, his children set him off on an island with other elderly people. They leave him just enough food to R&P researcher In fact, according to R&P data, maintenance is the income number one problem facing senior citizens in Buffalo. Transportation and loneliness run a close second, with health problems rating fourth. These problems are not easy to measure, though, and vary from one community to another. — — Page twelve The Spectrum Wednesday, 7 May 1975 . . Naming restaurants Trying to find something that might be familiar to her, I named all the restaurants and stores on Main Street in the area. She said the Red Barn sounded familiar. I started walking her in that the direction, that hoping apartments Court University would look familiar. As we passed them, I asked if she lived there. “It looks like the place we stayed at in California,” she said. “Are you sure you don’t live here?” “We stayed here once. But the people living here now wouldn’t know me.” I took her up to the Red Barn, and asked her if it looked familiar. “Oh, there must be more than one Red Barn,” she said. I took her into Your Host, sat her down at a booth under the sign, “No loitering 15 minutes after meal is completed,” and again asked her for the names of some people to look up in the phone book. “Oh, I can’t think. Isn’t that funny,” she said. But was able to tell me her own name. “How did you get to the Plaza?” 1 asked. “Mother drove me this afternoon and left me there. I bought these things for them to eat a lunch before they leave tomorrow,” she said, pointing to her grocery bag. “1 shouldn’t have gone out. These things happen when you try to do things for someone else. What town are we in?” Problem of loneliness “Loneliness is a big problem in this area,” said one social worker in the University district. Like other problems, loneliness can lead to a broader range of difficulties. For two people who have lived together all their lives, the death of one spouse can make the other helpless. An elderly widow, bred during an era of more conservative sex codes, may not know how to cash a check or repair things at home. Several weeks ago, a gaunt woman in her seventies was found around University wandering Plaza shortly after 9 p.m. “Where is Main Street?” she asked. She was carrying a bag of groceries that she had just purchased at A&P. “You’re on Main Street,” I said. “Where on Main Street did you want to go?” “I don’t know,” she said, and began to walk into the stream of traffic. Stopping her, I asked if there was anywhere I could take her. “I don’t know,” she said. “They will be so worried about me. “Who will be worried?” I asked, in the hope that she would name people I could look up in a Buffalo phone book and bring her to. “Buffalo. Do »yoa have “The people I’m staying with. I anything in your wallet mat might just came from New York three have your address on it?” ' remain alive until they can get far enough away so they will not see him die. In more developed areas of the United States, where institutions are condemned for their poor treatment of their clients, senior citizens are sent to nursing homes. But nursing homes may be losing patients; scandals about their living conditions in these homes have scared many away. This has the inspired of development community-centered efforts to assist the elderly. These services which emphasize community responsibility for the elderly are usually at a cost the senior citizen on a fixed income can afford, or are free. Senior citizens comprise a large of the portion poverty population. According to statistics from the Research and Planning Council (R&P) in Buffalo, 25 percent of the city’s senior citizens live below the poverty level, while 25 percent live at the poverty level. “This means that 50 percent of senior citizens live at the level of survival,” said one weeks ago. If it wasn’t so dark I would know where I was going.” “Oh, the last time I got lost, I told myself to keep a piece of paper with my address on it. But I forgot to do it.” I asked to see her wallet anyway. She pulled it out and leafed through some cards that only had her name on them. She passed a piece of paper with her name and address on it. “Look, Edna, here is your address,” I said, pulling the piece of paper out of the laminated seal. There were other names and telephone numbers on the paper. One name had “social worker” written under it. “I wish I remembered to put that piece of paper in my wallet,” she remarked. “This is it!” 1 shouted to her. “Oh, I don’t hear so well since my accident. I don’t want Mother to know 1 don’t hear so well.” “Edna, look! Your address,” I screamed, waving the paper in front of her. She had become hopelessly deaf and blind, so I telephoned the social worker. There was no answer there, or at any of the other numbers on her paper, except for one. “Yes, we know Edna. Yes, that’s her address. She lives alone. She’s always getting lost, we don’t want to have anything to do with her. CLICK.” Just then, Edna pulled keys from her purse. “These are the keys to my house in California,” she said. “Come, Edna, I’ll take you home,” I said. The address on her paper was, after all, the University Court apartments, and the “California” keys fit the door. Home, at last Once in her apartment, she took off her coat and said, “Yes, it looks just like it did when we stayed here. They brought the furniture last week.” There were copies of the Buffalo Evening News on her couch with current dates on them. A note was left on her bed upon which was scrawled, “Gone out to buy a few things. Be back in 10 minutes.” Next to her telephone was a big plaque that had the name of a doctor and a telephone number. I called the number, but Dr. Borden was a dentist and said he didn’t know Edna. Edna had taken off her shoes and was watering her plants. The apartment looked very well kept. I tried calling the social worker once more, and was successful. But the social worker said that she had no client named Edna. Unsure of what to do, 1 began to recount to the social worker how I found her at the plaza. “Oh, Edna!” she remembered. “I found her a year ago wandering around the plaza. I drove her home, and didn’t feel she was fit to live by herself, so 1 called her daughter. The number was in her wallet. Her daughter said she didn’t want to have anything to do with her.” The social worker felt Edna should be put into a home, but told me this would be illegal without her daughter’s consent. Lost in loneliness When I left Edna’s apartment, she said, “I’m so sad you’re leaving.” Edna’s other problems mainly her cohfusion and her wandering at night seem to stem from her loneliness. Edna was referred to the University Heights Community Development - - Association (UHCDA). UHCDA can offer her several companion services in her own community. volunteer from the A Telephone Assurance Program (TAP) can call her daily at an appointed time to check on her well-being and provide friendly conversation. The volunteers are usually senior citizens themselves. Through Community Action Corps (CAC), Edna can receive a visit from a companion for two to three hours a week. In addition to providing companionship, volunteers run light errands for many shut-ins, and generally improve an elderly person’s sorry existence. Edna can also receive a weekly visit from a volunteer companion through VISTEC (Volunteers in Service to Erie County) to get help shopping and housecleaning, or traveling to clinics or hospitals. Volunteers can plso pay her a friendly visit.

Because they are trusting and lonely and want to befriend almost anyone they meet, many senior citizens are taken advantage of. Sara, Claire and Essie are sisters living together in a house in University Heights. Several weeks ago, their doorbell rang the first time it rang unexpectedly in two months. A young dapper looking man in a blue flannel suit with a clean and friendly smile stood at the door. He showed them his card, explained that he was an insurance salesman, and they let him in. The women were quickly taken by his warm personality, and invited him to have some home baked spice cake with tea. The salesman then said he would get to the point he wanted to sell them an insurance policy at a SO percent reduction that people over 70 were entitled to. All three sisters qualified. This insurance would presumably pay $6,0000 to their beneficiaries if they were killed in a car accident. Because of the salesman’s winning personality and charming good looks, they bought the policy. None of the three sisters owned a car, and Sara and Essie had not driven in an automobile in six years. — immediately the perceived inequities in the policy, and reported this to the Office of Legal Counseling for the Elderly (LCE). A para-legal aid was called in and is currently investigating the problem. The office of LCE was recently opened in Buffalo to give inexpensive legal aid to senior citizens in consumer fraud cases, home ownership problems (price of repairs, property tax rebates and deductions), landlord-tenant problems, administrative problems (food stamps, social security, medicare and medicaid) and pensions. In fact, a separate area of the law was recently social security payments. But if a retired senior citizen decides to continue working at another job, his income will result in a deduction from both his and his wife’s social security checks. He can earn up to $200 a month deductions. Social without security will pay him and his wife about $219 a month. If they both receive monthly pensions totaling about $300, they will have an income of about $700 a month not much to live on for two people who have given so much to their community all their lives. Supplementary Social Security Supplementary Security — Community companion helps The sisters had a community companion who came every week and did their marketing. The next time she came, they told her about their new insurance, and the exciting young man who had come to see them. The companion Social security complaints The Social Security Administration ranks first on the complaint list of the elderly. Many complain about the sex discrimination under social security. A married woman over 65, who has had the normal amount of social security deducted from her paycheck during all her working years, will only receive one half of what her husband gets. The Social Security Administration also discourages work. Income from savings, annuities, sale of capital assets, inheritance, rent income from property and investment in stocks and bonds will not affect the There are, undoubtedly, many generous community services available to senior citizens in Erie County. The biggest problem that still exists is making them aware of these services. Next comes the problem of convincing them they are entitled to these services and should not be afraid to use them. Because many senior citizens are shut-ins, they don’t know what is available to them. Other elderly people do not want to accept what their generation has called “charity.” If the senior citizens who most need this assistance cannot be informed of and encouraged to use these services, the biggest problem for the elderly must still be tackled. ! * Photos by David Lastar Wednesday, 7 May 1975 The Spectrum Page thirteen . . **j | �'•k'* Amy Dunkin Managing Editor, 1974-75 Editor-in-Chiaf, 1975-76 Richard Korman Campus Editor, 1974-75 Managing Editor-in-Chief. 1974-75 Editor, 1975-76 Michael O'Neill Managing Editor, 1974-75 Special Features Editor, 1974-75 Mitchell Regenbogen Campus Editor, 1974-75 Bob Budiansky Graphics Editor, 1974-75, 1975-76 Kim Santos 1974-75 Photo Editor, Gerry McKean 76 You've read our words.

Perhaps you were at the Kottke concert last fall. If not, his reputation as the fastest twelve and six string finger picker alive may have reached your ears. At any rate, Leo Kotte is truly amazing: a virtuoso, an inventive, imaginative performer and composer. He may or may not have a band with him if he does, you can expect some electric surprises. If not, his old tricks are still guaranteed to awe. In this business, if an artist can keep his head above public water for more than a few months, he’s lucky. Jesse Colin Young’s staying power alone would be proof of his talent, but he hardly needs to rest on that laurel. Founder of the now legendary Youngbloods ("Get Together’’ their most famous classic), Young was a major influence on the San Francisco music scene of the late sixties. His California mellow voice and flowing style have withstood the tests of time and trends, and he continues to progress from his original folk abd blues roots, something obvious to anyone who has heard his latest album, Songbird.

As it is, the result is a competent but monotonous series of songs. The sound is typical Muddy blues, redone in different beats to accomodate the lyrics. Among those helping are Paul Butterfield, and Levon Helm and Garth Hudson of the Band. Butterfield’s harp stands out on most of the tracks as does the piano of Pinetop Perkins. Waters does vocals and guitar, although the vocals come through twice as often. “Going Down to Main Street” on the first side is a little rocker that helps to break up the set but even it falls into the blues trap after a little while. The space between the songs is filled with conversation between members of the band, with Muddy giving instructions to everyone. He keeps everyone together and moving, but the sense of sluggishness sneaks through anyway. “Caledonia,” last on the first side, gives the band a chance to step out with solos and the individuals do very well with 'y... il or Write: Strawberry Fields/Jamaica 54 West 56th Street New York City 10019 212-247-4505 Your Travel Agent Or Perkins helps out a little on two of the cuts with additional vocals that augment the established voice of Waters. A positive point; the organ and accordian of Garth Hudson are good in themselves and blend very well with the total effect. Waters says it himself between the first and second cuts on the second side: “I don’t write nothing but blues, stoned blues.” That is really what makes up this album, though none of it is his. McKinley Morganfield and Fleecie Moore did most of the writing, with the exceptions by Jerry Lieber and Mike Stoller, who did “Kansas City,” and a couple of others. “Let the Good Times Roll” is another up beat blues number but by the end, the resemblance to “Going Down . ..” is unmistakable. That’s really about it, a collection of Muddy Waters type blues with some talent thrown in to fill the sparce spots. From a master like Waters, I expected much more.

Pageisewenteen �ECORD Robert Hunter, Tiger Rose (Round) Robert Hunter is probably best known as the lyricist of the kings of San Franciscan rock, The Grateful Dead. It’s been little over a year since Hunter begun recording on his own, and with the release of Tiger Rose, Hunter seems headed for stardom. He possesses a mediocre but crisp voice. Hunter sounds strikingly similar to Phil Lesh and at times, his songs sound like to the Dead’s soft-rock tunes. Hunter is fortunate to have the talents of Jerry Garcia on almost all the tracks. Garcia plays piano, guitar, and synthesizer, and sings background vocals on some tracks. On “One Thing To Try,” Jerry’s synthesizer work is magnificent. The song has a mellow Latin flavor throughout, which gives it a calm, smooth sound. Hunter's lyrics are up to his usual standard of excellence: Don’t ever let it get the best ofyou. Plan whatyou can, let the rest shine through. Just so many angles you can possibly see Got to figure on those, let the other ones be Got alot of things growing But keep watching your seeds ...” His lyrics are complex and deep, but many of his melodies are at best mediocre. However, his writing compensates for the flaws in the rest of the album’s production. The album didn’t come with the lyrics enclosed, but if one listens carefully the words can be understood, due to Hunter’s fine phrasing and enunciation. The last number,'“Ariel” is probably the best " CROSSWORD PUZZLE song, lyric-wise, on the album. It’s a slowly paced ballad with choir-like background vocals by Donna Jean Godchaux, Jerry Garcia, and David Freiberg. The lyrics are Just superb: “There is no night like this night Where candles bum through daylight, Lines restrained by golden tenors. Fade, fade, fade, fade, away The sun objects with smiling sadness Roman highways laced with diamonds. . . If I had the sense to know Which things count, which are show And hold my fate within my hands Instead of all these chains and bounds Yes I would, oh Ariel, Ariel, Ariel. The album never lags, and there aren’t any dull cuts. Hunter writes about many aspects of life: despair, love, sadness, happiness; and has a very convincing delivery, which tends to get very emotional at times, especially in “Dance a Hole” when he sings: “You can play with power and money, You can play with towers above. Draw the line there if you ’re able. And don’tyou ever play with love. Tiger Rose should be a very successful record. Hunter’s talents are very well showcased. Grateful Dead fans get a chance not only to hear how well Hunter can write, but also sing, it’s about time more attention and acclaim be given him the long overdue recognition as one of rock music’s best lyricists. He should finally get out from the shadow of the Dead. A fine album from a fine artist.

The first official definition of Zionism was the Basle Program of 1897, which said, “Zionism seeks to obtain for the Jewish people a publicly recognized, legally secured home in Palestine.” The Zionist movement proposed to: create a Jewish national movement similar to other national movements of the nineteenth century; obtain and political economic independence; revive Hebrew language and — — — literature; develop the land of Israel; create an open society with freedom of choice for each - — individual; give the Jewish people the right to guide their own destiny. This definition was later expanded to include the protection of the rights of Jews everywhere. — Rights for all The movement has never the deprive intended to Palestinian minority in the land of The Israeli rights. their Declaration of Independence states, in part, .. it will ensure complete equality of social and political rights to all its inhabitants irrespective of religion, race or sex; it will guarantee freedom of religion, conscience, language, education and culture “We appeal... to the Arab inhabitants of the State of Israel to preserve peace and participate in the upbuilding of the state on the basis of full and equal citizenship and due representation and its provisional in all ...” institutions permanent The Israeli government has always sought to work with its Arab neighbors; in order for the area to prosper, all must work together. The Jewish Agency, the representative body of world Zionism before the State of Israel was established, accepted the UN partition plan of 1947, which would have created two one Jewish independent states ... - LA AITS IDE DOUBLEH ER The Palestinian. one went to states Arab neighboring and war immediately. Holy war Four times in the past 27 years, Jihaad (holy war) has been declared to create a secular state in the area of what is Israel. Yet Israel and Lebanon are the only states in the area which do not have religious law as their civil codes. Israel has not made public any specific plan for the creation of a nation, Palestinian claiming instead that any such plans would be approved as part of a general settlement in the area. The Israeli government has chosen not to the Palestinian recognize Liberation Organization (PLO) because the PLO has publicly stated that one of its goals is the destruction of the Israeli state. This policy simply leaves no room for compromise, and the state cannot preside over its own destruction. The most important condition for peace in the Middle East is the recognition by all nations in the area of the legitimacy of the existence of the state of Israel, for then all other issues at hand can be resolved.

Rubin Spectrum Staff Writer Oft* Friday, there was more of the same. Stores dosed early, and the turnout at the track was unusually high. Friday night began the siege. In order to be at the finish line in the infield, we had to be among the first to enter Churchill Downs at 8 a.m. Saturday morning. Toward that end we decided to leave our lodgings at the Univeristy of Louisville, and campout in line. We made the mile walk to the Downs at about midnight, but with all the activity going on, it might as well have been noon. We spread our blankets on the Churchill Downs parking lot and began the tedious wait until the police let us form a line at 5:30 a.m. Those 5-1/2 hours were the most hellish of all, as many of the 200 or so people who were also on hand got extremely drunk and rowdy. One idiot from Tennessee poured beer on anybody who attempted to go to sleep. Foolish Pleasure, with Jacinto Vasquez aboard, won the 101st Kentucky Derby on Saturday at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, When he crossed the finish line, I was SO yards away, up against the fence in the infield, screaming my head off. There are not many things in my mind which can parallel the Derby. The excitement of watching the best three year olds in the country parade onto the dirt track to the strains of “My Old Kentucky Home” is something that cannot be conveyed by television. The prestigious Belmont Stakes, the third leg of racing’s triple crown, is just another in the endless stream of important events which are lost in the massiveness of New York City. But for Louisville, the Derby is the only important event of the year, and it infests the entire city. Mobbed Streets are rerouted, lawns and driveways are converted to Of course, we were first on line, and after we passed parking lots, and Kentucky Derby shirts, glasses, rings and through the gate and made our mad dash to the finish line pictures are all put on sale. The city doesn’t sleep from area, the real wait began. The infield swelled first. By Friday morning until Sunday night. Traffic is moderate noon, I couldn’t walk anyplace without stepping on even at 3 a.m., and you never know when somebody is blankets, racing forms or people. going to tap you on the shoulder and ask, “Who do you By 2 p.m., the stage was set. The grandstand was full like in the Derby?” by now, and the two races left before the Derby were merely a formality. At this stage, we knew everybody around us Sightseeing who they were, where they came from and We arrived on Thursday morning and immediately most of all, which horse they were betting on. drove out to Churchill Downs simply to ogle at the famous The seventh race ended, and there were 60 minutes to twin spires. We also found our way to the first turn of the go. The crowd swelled in on us perhaps 20 or 30 deep, but track itself where we were lucky enough to see Foolish we maintained our bird’s eye view save for two picture Pleasure and a host of other Derby contenders working takers who temporarily moved in for some shots of the out. Unfortunately, we also bumped into Howard Cosell. horses on parade. The excitement and tension were — unbounded by now. The sun went behind the clouds, and the threat of rain was real. But the magic of the Kentucky Derby made sure that it held off until after the race. The horses made their way to the paddock, and then reappeared on the track as everyone in Churchill Downs came to their feet. I strained to hear “My Old Kentucky Home” as the horses strode by. The caravan of colts reached the gate and amidst an eruption of 130,000 people, broke from the start. The noise level didn’t drop one decibel as the horses sped in and out of our view for the first time. They came by again, and when Foolish Pleasure crossed the finish line, the city of Louisville hit its high point of the year. That night, we left Louisville after a short celebration, and by Monday, most everyone will have gone. The clean up job at Churchill Downs will begin, and the talk around town will shift from “Hey, that Foolish Pleasure is some horse” to “Do you known any good two year olds?” Only 362 days until the Kentucky Derby. Winkel readies for championship race Friday night, Buffalo’s Monica Winkel and seven other area college students will determine the winner of the College Harness Racing Championships at Buffalo Raceway. A 30-foot birdie putt on the final hole enabled Lares Tresjan to edge out Bruce Engel, The Spectrum's Sports Editor by a score of 58-104, in an early-morning round at Delaware Park last Saturday. Mr. Tresjan completely outpsyched Mr. Engel by scoring five birdies, three eagles and a hole in one. The other two members of the foursome, Mike O'Neill and Larry Kratowitz, spent the entire round- at Delaware Park composing songs. One of Mr. O'Neill's compositions, "Hey Bunglo Lares" can be heard on WZAQ radio. Page twenty The Spectrum Wednesday, 7 May 1975 . . Ms. Winkel earned her place in the championship by guiding Top Scotty to an impressive wire to wire victory April 11. as Originally picked an alternate, Monica amazed trackmen by the way she handled the horses and gained a berth in the qualifying race. Monica has taken racing very seriously, as her practice schedule can attest. She practices five times a week, from 8 a.m. until 1 pan. at the track. Missing classes isn’t a problem because Monica is doing mostly research work. “Monica is just a great person Monica Winkel and we hope she can win the championship,” said Ira “They’re still pretty good.” Brushman, one of the racing “I love adventures,” Ms. enthusiasts of the Governors’ Winkel said, explaining why she �Scholar athletes Fencer Munz leads top ten The Spectrum has compiled its annual list of the school’s top scholar-athletes. Several minimum requirements were established. The candidate must have won a varsity letter last year and must be a starter or important substitute this year. He must also have done well academically. The only team to place more than one member in the top ten was the swimming team, which had Lacrosse The lacrosse team was foiled in its bid for an undefeated season on Saturday when it lost to the Kenmore Athletic Club, 8—7 in overtime. Kenmore, made up of non-collegiate players, many of whom are over 25 years old, withstood a ferocious Buffalo attack in the waning seconds of regulation time. Buffalo could not score in the overtime, despite having a one man advantage at one point. 5. Uoue Bowman Hockey.

University. The concerted efforts of these groups the past four months have produced a calendar of events which include a multitude of diversified activities that will take place primarily in the Norton Hall fountain area. The planned program includes coffeehouses, movies, tennis and karate demonstrations, and crafts exhibits. Additionally, there will be literature and poetry readings in the Norton Tiffin over Room, plays in Harriman Library, and concerts in Baird. Community trips, such as picnics to Niagara Falls, Toronto, Old Fort Niagara and Beaver Island, are also on the agenda. UUAB has chosen a wide of variety popular films for this summer’s viewing. Among these are The Gambler, The Boy Friend, Chinatown, T.B.A., Bed and Board, New attitudes Food service hopes to set up a refreshment stand in the fountain courtyard. The ice cream concession, however, will remain on the first floor of Norton throughout the summer. There will also be barbecues and beer gardens on the Union terrace. Dave Benders, Director of UUABj attributed Food Service’s enthusiasm and cooperation to the “new attitudes” of its director, Donald Hosie. Mr. Hosie was unavailable for comment, but assistant Director Donald Bozek said “things are changing” and that “student input” is crucial. Jim Blackhurst, Director of Summer Activities, said “finding a mechanism for bringing together student and department monies” was the major problem in coordinating the project, although complimented UUAB’s cooperation. Continue cooperation Students have “a more serious interest in the arts” today than five or six years ago, he added, and summer activities planning is directed towards this awareness. Ann Hicks, Associate Coordinator of Student Activities, explained that the progri work.” She said “better planning” made the extensive activities program possible. While the master calendar has not yet been approved, project coordinators are confident the proposal will go through.

Esposito City American Federation of and Dentists. They obtained a temporary injunction the filing and to restrain processing of the prescriptions on March 29, 1973, but that order was terminated shortly thereafter. the Physicians Editor A decision is expected soon in a legal action challenging the State Health Department’s practice of making computerized records of ill individuals who have received prescriptions for Schedule II drugs (narcotics, barbituates and amphetamines) April I, 1973. (See The Spectrum, May 3, 1974.) According to Michael Lesch, one of the attorneys handling the challenge, a ruling could come in a matter of weeks, “though it could possibly take up to a year.” Drug enforcement The prescriptions have been computerized as a result of a bill signed into law by former Governor Nelson Rockefeller on June 8, 1972. The legislation officially became part of Article 33 of the State Public Health Law on April 1, 1973. The trial, held in the United Slates District Court for the Southern District of New York, was completed in December, 1974. Post-trial briefs were submitted to the court last month. The computerized information includes the name, address and age of thp patient, the name and amount of the drug, and the name and address of the prescribing physician. The information is retrievable under both the patient’s and physician’s names. No comment The information, which had previously been available in pharmacy records, is collected on triplicate prescription forms, one copy of which is sent to the Health Department in Albany. The State said it would be used in drug enforcement and to curb abuses by doctors who write or patients who receive Schedule II A spokesman for the State Health Department, whose commissioner, Hollis J. Ingraham, is the defendant in the case, would not comment on the case, known as Roe v. Ingraham, while it is in litigation. Seth Greenwald, a spokesman for the State Attorney General’s office in New York City, which is handling the case for the State, also said it was “not appropriate to comment while in litigation.” Mr. Greenwald noted, however, that the last decision handed down by a court in the case had denied the injunction the plaintiffs were seeking to end the computerization and collection of the prescriptions. Plaintiffs in the case include several patients who were receiving Schedule II drugs (including Percodan, Demerol and Ritalin), two physicians who prescribe the drugs, the Empire State Physicians Guild, Inc v and prescriptions. Right to privacy? In post-trial briefs obtained by The SSpectrum the plaintiffs argue that the “State cannot point to any enforcement purpose that will be served by having the patient’s names recorded on the prescriptions and on the central computer in Albany.” , ' Editions Page two The Spectrum Monday, 5 May 1975 . . Doctor to doctor? One plaintiff, a psychiatrist, stopped prescribing Schedule II drugs because he feared the prescription filing requirement would undermine his patients’ trust and confidence in him. The Second Circuit Court of Appeals, which sent the case to the District Court, observed that an individual’s prescriptions often reveal the nature ofhis ailment.. The Court of Appeals had gone on record as saying that the present system would enable the State to readily detect a number of serious abuses, such as the same patient going to different doctors to obtain quantities of Schedule II drugs greater than his legitimate medical needs, overprescription by doctors, and the theft or forgery of prescriptions. Plaintiffs argue that the “State now concedes that it does not need” the names of patients to solve any of those problems.

The plaintiffs, who are seeking a permanent injunction to end the prescription collection, believe the current system “violates the patient’s right of privacy and the doctor’s right to treat his pallets [without being bound] by non-medical considerations, both of which are guaranteed by the 14th Amendment.” - — - - Children'!

The Security given the 125,000 prescriptions received each month in Albany was termed “wholly inadequate” by the only expert to testify at the trial, the post-trial brief notes.” The security of the computerized information from unauthorized disclosure is Illusory,” the plaintiffs have asserted, citing the absence of provisions for a patient to ascertain whether the Health The Spectrum is published Monday.

The program has three parts: sperm banking, semen analysis and insemination. Marilynn Buckham, the administrator of the program, said that the sperm banking is done in New York City with the Ident Sperm Bank. After donors are screened and their semen analyzed at the Sperm Bank, about 10 percent-are accepted into the program. The Ident Clinic collects the semen by having the donors masturbate and ejaculate into several tubes. The semen is than frozen in liquid nitrogen and coded by the donor’s size, build, coloring, religion, etc. The donor’s actual identity, however, remains completely confidential. Inseminations and semen analysis are conducted at the Erie Medical Center. A semen analysis, which includes a sperm count, requires that the ejaculate be no more than two hours old. During the insemination process, a syringe containing the tube of frozen semen is injected two or three times into the vagina and cervix during the woman’s ovulatory period. The process is 60 to 70 percent effective, but can take more than a month to impregnate the woman. So far, the Erie Medical center has inseminated six women, two of whom are now pregnant.

Presently pending in Congress is a federal qualified shield bill initiated by Rep. Robert Kastenmeier (D-WI) and designed to protect a reporter’s right to disclosure of evidence. Hopes for a national liberal unqualified shield law died last December because an indecisive 93rd Congress neither passed nor vetoed Sen. Alan Cranston’s (D-CA) free flow of information bill. Both Congress and thfe press corps felt that shield laws, presently effect in 26 states, might be the answer for protection after the in Supreme Court’s 1972 landmark decision ruling that reporters do not have an inherent First Amendment right to refuse to reveal information given them on a confidential basis. Since the decision a number of reporters have gone to jail rather than reveal their sources. — Indecision Legislative indecision, however, has existed not only among press shield-wary congressmembers, but among the press as well. While several congressional leaders have viewed a shield bill as “special privilege legislation” for the press, their sentiments have been shared by some news reporters who want tno legislation at all and hope Congress will stay out of the press arena. Other journalistic opinion has ranged /rom a willing acceptance for a watered down bill to a demand for strong, unqualified legislation. “We’d rather have no law than a bad law,” said one shield law reporter-lobbyist. According to free press defender Sen. Cranston, a bad shield law is one with “serious loopholes and qualifications that actually would give the government and the courts new openings with which to restrict press freedom rather than enhance it.” Opposite effect Yet with all the discussion over shield laws, related legislative loopholes have been discovered, which may force news reporters to reveal their sources, Cranston has claimed. There are two questionable provisions in the controversial Federal Criminal Code Act now being considered by Congress. The first makes it a federal offense for anyone, including a reporter, to refuse to answer a question in an official proceeding after a federal court judge orders him to answer. The second provision makes it a federal crime to conceal the identity of someone who may have committed a crime. This new threat to the First Amendment may push lawmakers and news people to unite behind a single, strong piece of legislation which will protect news sources against compulsory disclosure. so it can continue to “The press must be free to expose corruption and lawlessness in and out of government. If informants are afraid to talk to newsmen for fear of being publicly identified, news sources will dry up and both the public and law enforcement authority themselves will be deprived of vital information,” said Sen. Cranston. • * The grand prize winning photograph in the Minolta Corporation photo competition for college students, The winner, Philip Meyer, a 20-year-old architecture Bullets too , Ban focus-hand gun sale Condemning the abundance of violent crimes committed in America each day, Lyndon B. Johnson once remarked, “fire handguns, rifles, and arms are 'as easy to obtain shotguns as baskets of fruit and cartons of cigarettes.” The handgun in particular, which accounts for about 25 percent of privately owned firearms in the nation, is used in nearly three-quarters of all killings from guns. With this in mind, the Committee for Handgun Control (CHC) a non-profit corporation and a Congressional lobby organized in 1973, is responsible for informing citizens of the continued, threat of — — THE OUTDOOR STORE • 913 MAIN at CARLTON (1/2 block from Allen) 9 5:30 Mon.

This year we have combined the best features of each to produce a tent for the most demanding of climbers or backpackers. indiscriminate sale and use of handguns. In Minnesota, for example, firecrackers are illegal, but almost anyone over the age of 18 can buy a gun. Fighting for Controls The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is now considering the CHC’s petition to ban the sale of handgun bullets, except to policemen, military personnel, licensed security guards, and licensed pistol clubs. This came after Washington Judge Thomas A. Flannery’s decision last December to order the CPSC to consider the proposed ban of handgun bullets. He instructed the Commission to publish its own proposal for limiting the sale of handgun ammunition to stimulate public reaction while ruling that the Commission had the authority to enact the measure. Before Judge Flannery’s ruling, the CHC’s proposed ban was rejected by several of the CPSC’s members grounds that “it was a back door attempt to ban pistols themselves.” However, Susan Sullivan, President of the CHC, told the Court that bullets are dangerous objects and that the sale of ammunition should be controlled the Federal Hazardous by Substances Act. Public endorsement The CHC proposal has been enthusiastically endorsed by Rochford, James N. of the Chicago Superintendent Police Department, who believes a ban would “significantly contribute to a reduction in handgun misuse incidents.” A massive advertising campaign is presently underway to gain public support for the proposed ban. The committee is also lobbying in Congress for anti-gun legislation. “We are not trying to change anyone’s mind about gun control, Ms. Sullivan maintained. “Polls show that eighty percent of the people want strong gun control and we are just trying to get the Commission or Congress to do what the majority of the people really want.” In the past, those who opposed tougher regulation of hand-gun sales argued that limiting an individual’s right to buy weapons is unconstitutional. The thrust of the CHC’s new approach is that if you can’t ban the gun, then ban the bullet. All tents are flame retardent 3 Man Mt. KATAHDIN �SO 2 Man Mt. KATAHDIN *55 4 Man Mt.

We certainly have no point of contention with Mr. Hohenstein’s right to an opinion on this issue. But, rather than attacking the issue or the proposal, Mr. Hohenstein attacks women generally. Indeed, the attack is so vicious and offensive that we feel our status as intelligent persons has been openly questioned. We wish to counter the main points of Mr. Hohenstein’s argument as to our worthiness as bona fide members of the human race. Richard Hohenstein seems to have serious problems with his sex role in life; some grave feelings of threat manifested in attitudes of male superiority. This is evidenced by his letter which started off, although stridently emotional, at least dealing with the issue, but somehow ended with his baring his anti-female philosophy for all the world to see. We deeply sympathize with the embarrassment he must feel over this impulsive, gut reaction letter, but we should be given an opportunity to redeem ourselves. Mr. Hohenstein was consistent in that he referred to women as “girls” throughout the letter while referring to men as “men.” We feel it unnecessary to delve into this topic since black people have done an outstanding job in communicating the feelings involved when black men arc referred to as “boys.” Presumably as a pun to add wit to his letter, Mr. Hohenstein uses a slang word for the female genitals in reference to women “trotting around the court.” Considering the appearance of Mr. Hohenstein’s genitals, we would strongly urge him never again to ridicule or make puns about those of women. Frankly, he would be leaving himself wide open. As things stand now, women have one night a week at the Bubble, apd if this is not a satisfactory solution, matters can be worked out by mature, logical reasoning (provided we aren’t hit with one of those cute little scatter-brained boys who absolutely refuses to share a court with a woman). We wish to make a public statement that we bear no ill will toward Richard Hohenstein, and wish him the best of luck during his maturing process.

Have you, Mr. Hohenstein, ever been to the bubble on Tuesday night? If you were there, you would have observed that all facilities were in use by interested women. Perhaps if there were no harrassment and mockery of which we have been the recipients during the day, it would not be necessary to have a women’s night.

Advertising Manager Business Manager v �Editor’s Note: The following policy statement Letter to Ketter Editor’s note: The following letter was sent to University President Robert Ketter. Well, I’m writing this letter Saturday morning almost 30 hours afterwards hut somehow I am still inside Hayes Hall. Your barbaric hastiness on Friday really surprised me; perhaps I was just naive. Amidst all my anger and confusion, and my flashbacks to the incident in Hayes, 1 have begun to sort things out. Unscrupulous behavior on your part is to be expected for it has characterized your administration. Your latest acts, which have apparently resulted in a state-wide uproar, should scar you for life. Besides criminal procedures, it is the least of what I hope for you. By the way, did you read about the students at Brown University who occupied the administration building overnite to protest campus cutbacks? All administrators and staff left the building, no police type forces were called in, and no one was hurt. — — The students at Brown University, much like ourselves, occupied the building because all other avenues for getting their opinions recognized and acted upon proved fruitless. What else can you do when more ‘polite’ efforts have been in vain? Dr. Siggelkow and Dr. Lorenzetti both double-talked their way around the issue the day before; not fooling anybody, not even themselves. I knew all along that it was a waste of time. The only way left to protest the capricious decision, and let you know we have a right to decide on the allocation of our money, was to protest in a civilly disobedient, but non-violent manner at your office. All other means had been exhausted. Nevertheless, some members believed, even after you tried to bust all our heads, that you could be persuaded through rational discussion to give us the buses. The money for buses was no longer the issue! We had only been in the building a little more than an hour. I didn’t expect you to issue an ultimatum, especially so soon, that you knew would result in physical harm to defenseless students due to Campus Security and their overzealous and abhorable behavior (it’s amazing what a person with a weapon will do when an individual in authority gives them the okay to use it). Your ultimatum even resulted in an education for us, as to what kind of ruthless, unremorseful, person you really are. We learned to what extent an individual in power will go when their authority has been confronted. I’m sure our education on this last point will continue, as our what challenge to what you and this University are about, will grow in scope this whole nation and size. I am sure the extent to which you will go to meet this challenge will, likewise, expand. Campus Security and their dogs (guns?), Buffalo Police, it will take more than all those you helicopters, had Friday to suppress a people you and 1 both know are right. Who knows Bob, maybe one day you’ll find yourself in our position. The students will have taken complete control of policy making in the university. You serve only as a figurehead. We have just vetoed the funds for a trip to the American Historical Association by several history professors - - - because we decided it was not of social, cultural or educational value. We saw its political implications, since historians often have a conservative bias in their repording of events. You and other concerned administrators stage a sit-in at our offices to protest the decision. Would you want us to ‘sic the dogs’ on you? Harold Meyrowitz was passed Friday night by the Student Association Executive Committee. On Friday, May 2, the Executive Committee of Student Association held a meeting to define its position concerning the movement by the Attica Support Group and supporting organizations. The Executive Committee is making the following Statement: “The Student Association Executive Committee cannot support the Strike called for this Monday by the Attica Support Group. The Executive Committee believes in their basic goals, but does not support the strike for the following reasons; 1. The strike will not further our aims; it will only lead to another confrontation. The press will come down on students. The Administration will come down on students 2.The strike will further cloud the true goals, which are; (a) Drop all academic charges, because the students charged were denied due process. (b) Student control of their own money. (c) That the- Buffalo police not be called in in cases of civil disobedience. (d) Establish a civil review board for Campus Security. 3. The Student Association does not condone, under any circumstances, the disruption of classes. This does not rule out strikes, but rather disrupting the classes of those who wish to attend classes instead of strike. 4. The Strike will give the administration reason to impose more restrictions on freedom of movement on campus.” Keep men out To the Editor: Because of mass student support expressed last semester during chartering, the governance body of Women’s Studies College feels it necessary to keep people informed as the continuing struggle over our right to maintain Women in Contemporary Society (213) as an all-women’s class. In the five years Women’s Studies has existed we have offered approximately 25-30 courses of established academic validity, with an enrollment of 500 students each semester. Every semester the number of women signing up for 213 increases; this semester 200 women are taking the course, while many had to be turned away due to lack of space. In our charter (1-10-75) we won the right to have all-women’s courses as a small proportion of the total number of courses offered by the College, provided that the exclusion of men is academically’ justifiable. The Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) has already passed the Feminist Acting Workshop as an all women’s class, concerning itself only with the academic validity of the course. Since 213 has been taught for the last ten semesters and has passed through proper academic channels, it is contradictory for the course to go through re-evaluation once again, when University policy does not require re-evaluation of a course each semester it is offered. It is unclear as to when DUE will make its decision regarding 213, but from past experience we know it was student and community support which helped us win the charter and it is that support which will help us maintain it. Debbie Alter, Trudy Rudnick & Audrey Siegel Women’s Studies College Lloyd Jim just as hung up To the Editor This letter is directed toward Lloyd Jim, the idealist author of a letter written to The Spectrum on Monday 4/21. I was very impressed with his knowledge of Latin (“uni” means all, “ver” means see). However, after reading his letter of complaint about The Spectrum, it appeared to me, he is guilty of his own accusations as is The Spectrum. He accuses the writers of The Spectrum of being “little frustrated hung-up Portnoys from N.Y. who release their frustrations through The Spectrum .” From someone who claims to be so intellectually and emotionally mature, how can such generalizations “hold water,” especially when I look at the names of The Spectrum staff: Clem Colucci, Joseph Esposito, Michael O’Neill, Gerry McKeen, Chun Wai Fong, and well, of course, the Jews. to The furthers Also, say Spectrum Anti-Semeti? graffiti (with an undertone of justification) is to be as humane as a racist (which 1 suspect Mr. Jim to be). The people that write anti-semetic graffiti do not do so because of The Spectrum. It’s because they hate Jews. If'l was to lower myself to Mr. Jim’s level, 1 would say he is a frustrated hung-up Mick or Pollack or whatever from Buffalo who releases his frustrations by being Anti-Semetic. However, I won’t day that, and just 1 state that 1 feel Mr. Jim is not as intelligent or mature as he would like to think he is. Probably the most important prerequisite for emotional maturity is “experience,” and Mr. Jim has obviously showed his lack of it. He is sick of being “ranked out” about the weather (which let’s face it, compared to 90 percent of the country, SUCKS), the people and the city of Buffalo, and studying at Jew B. It appears to me, Mr. Jim is as hung-up as those “little Portnoys,” if these things really bother him. Maybe if he was persecuted or annihilated, he would feel better. Barry Save our own jobs To the Editor. An unfortunate coincidence on April 30 led to my letter on “Self-defeating Violence” to come out in the same issue as the report of Dr. Lawler’s No association should be non-reappointment. inferred. Dr. Lawler has told me that the open letter which he drafted last March, on behalf of UUP, was distributed by the Graduate Students Employees Union (GSEU) and most definitely not by the Revolutionary Students Brigade (RSB). He has authorized me to quote him, that he has nothing to do with the RSB. Dr. Lawler was acting in a most constructive manner, in initiating the campaign of letter-writing to legislators, to try to undo the disastrous cuts in our budget. 1 only hope tha all students and faculty have been responding to the plea. It is not too late; and the jobs or stipends, and even the places in classroom or lab, that we save, may be our own. Robert J Good Professor A woman's decision To the Editor. Hockey puck This letter concerns the “poem” printed in the 1 edition of Ethos entitled “A Woman’s Decision” (page 26). The author of this “poem,” Ms. Donna Serbert implies that abortion is an inhuman act equivalent to preparing the fetus (in the “poem” she calls it a new child) for dinner, or cooking it in some way. In the entire four years that I have been a student at this University, 1 have never seen a student publication come out with a more shocking, morbid, tasteless and inconsiderate piece of trash. This “poem” is inconsiderate of the many women who forgone reason or another, cannot maintain a pregnancy and decide to or must have an abortion. Such a decision is often an extremely traumatic and painful one on the part of the women and should not be made all the more difficult by the babbling of an individual who for some religious and/or fanatic reason, has decided to push their moral beliefs on everyone else! May To the Editor A bunch of my friends and myself would like to request $2000 from the S.A. for the witnessing of an historical event. It’s definitely an educational experience to go to Montreal for the Sabres’ game. Of course, we will stay in Montreal for the weekend to hold a Sabres rally. If our request for funds is refused, we will march around Hayes with hockey sticks chanting “Sabres Mean Fight Back!” We’ll also block the windows in Ketter’s office with Sabres banners. If security is called in, we’ll make them get the puck out of there. If our money isn’t allocated, we will expect a check from Binghamton to put the icing on the cake. Jim Prendergast Cohen I am not in any way stating a case for or against abortion. You see, what I believe in is my business, and what other people believe in is their business. If some one believes in abortion, fine! If not, again, fine! Ah, but then we do have people in our society (like Donna Serbert) who are not satisfied that they themselves may be adhering to their own moral beliefs, but for some unknown reason must attempt to impose their beliefs upon others. And if that’s not bad enough, some people in our society (like Donna Serbert) must attempt to impose their beliefs in a most disgusting, undignified manner. It’s about time that people like Donna Serbert realize that it is none of their damn business what a woman must or chooses to do with her life. It is most certainly her decision! Sal Napoli, a student P.S. I am deeply ashamed of Ethos and I condemn their May 1 edition for their blatant inconsideration. Monday, 5 May 1975,. The Spectrum Page seven . �rv,*u*v! Problem: surviving past the year2000 by Jody Gerard Spectrum Staff Writer “Human life is now threatened as never before. I am one of those scientists who does not see how to bring the human race much past the year 2000. And if we perish, as seems more and more possible, in a nuclear holocaust, that will be the end not only for us, but for much of the rest of life on the earth.” Prophesies of apocalypse, once confined to religious scriptures, have been slowly creeping into the purview of scientific minds. The above statement, for example, a look at the catastrophic potential of nuclear power, was delivered by Harvard professor George Wald at the "The unleashed power of the atom has changed everything except our ways of thinking. Thus we are drifting toward a catastrophe beyond comparison. We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking, if mankind is to survive. —Albert Einstein ” 20th World Conference Against Atomic and Hydrogen Bombs in In a related article in the journal, the phenomenon of “dehumanization” was said to have “significant bearing on the psychological capacity of people to tolerate implications of mass destruction in nuclear war.” Dehumanization refers to the “tendency to view other individuals or groups as though they do not quite belong to the ‘human race.,” the article states. The phenomenon of dehumanization protects a person from feelings of guilt about the way he feels about or acts toward other human beings. It leads to “the perception of other people as non-humans, as mere items, statistics, or inanimate ‘consumable supplies’.” Additionally, the report points out that way of viewing of people as non-human carries with it “a sense of non-involvement and indifference to the actual or potential problems of others.” Thus, without any “conscious malice or selfish motivation,” one is capable of ignoring the suffering, misery, sickness or death of others since it neither concerns nor moves him personally. Defense Dehumanization, particularly in relationship to the threat of nuclear war, is a psychological defense which “acts maladaptively by neutralizing the customary psychological barriers that would otherwise Tokyo last year. “We live while that is permitted us in a balance of terror,” Professor Wald asserted, noting that the U.S. and the Soviet Union together have already stockpiled nuclear weapons with an explosive force equivalent to 10 tfms of TNT for every man, woman and child on the earth. “You might think that enough,” Prof. Wald surmised, “but we are now in the midst of further escalation on both sides, replacing every single nuclear warhead with multiple warheads, and devising new and — — more devastating weapons.” According to a report in Psychiatric Aspects Prevention of Nuclear Wars, the emphasis on acquiring more and more powerful nuclear armaments to become more 'Strong and secure’ despite the risk - “Here we stand in the middle of this new world with our primitive brain, attuned to the simple cave life, with terrific forces that are at our disposal, which we are clever enough to release, but whose consequences we cannot comprehend.

McGovern to the U.S. Senate (8/2/63) ” be present to the destruction of millions of individual human beings.” Dehumanization, in effect, allows us “to play chess with the planets," the article points out. “To the extent that people continue to take refuse in patterns of dehumanized thinking, they are protected not only from guilt and anxiety, but also from the need to take part in the kind of social action and/or administrative responsibility that could have a meaningful effect on their individual and social destinies,” the report concludes. As Prof. Wald said in Tokyo, “The present crisis is a crisis, not of information, but of policy.

On one side are the Air Force and its major contractors; on the other, defense critics like “110 Members of Congress for Peace Through Law,” “The Center for Defense Information” and Project “ on Budget Priorities.” are The Air Force has insisted that the B-52 bombers now aging and need to be replaced. The House Appropriations Committee, however, has reported that the latest series, B-52, will remain operational for twenty years. Air Force officials contend that a new bomber is needed to maintain the triad strategic deterrence system of land-based missiles submarine-based missiles, and manned bombers. But the notion of triad deterrence itself has been under attack from defense department critics who say it is practically impossible for an enemy to destroy the land capability response of both and sea-based missiles , simultaneouslyy. Flexibility? The Air Force claims that the B-l bomber would provide essential flexibility in the country’s strategic arsenal have also been criticized because manned bombers may prove obsolete, in an age of nuclear missiles. In the time it would take a B-l to fly 6,000 miles to the USSR, the critics of the B-l contend, each side could deliver four rounds of nuclear missiles. Defense experts are also concerned about Russian advances. The Soviet Union, the Air Force points out, has a wide range of strategic bombers and is now building a new one. But they deploy only 140 long-range strategic bombers, compared with the U.S.’ 500. The new Russian plane, nicknamed “Backfire,” is not capable of reaching the U.S. without re-fueling. Moreover, critics argue that the USSR has never tried to match the U.S. in strategic bombers. In Fiscal Year 1974 military and military-related spending accounted for nearly 59 percent of the federal budget. In Fistal Year 1975, it is expected to be over $100 billion, a record high. Senator James Buckley, (R-C N.Y.) in a press conference following his speech at the University Law School three weeks ago, when asked why he supported the B-l program, replied that a military budget cut of $2 billion would eliminate 100,000 jobs. However, a Michigan Public Interest Research . Group report indicated that for every $ 1 billion spent on military in stead of non-military programs, the country suffers a net loss of 20,000 jobs. Locally, Councilman Bill Price (L-D University District) George K. Arthur (D Ellicott District), and Councilman-at-large William Dauria recently authored a Common Council resolution calling for a re-ordeimg of national priorities, and discontinuing B-l bomber research and development. The Common Council resolution also calls for Congress to shift defense tax dollars into three other areas: program and block grant funds to the cities, research on economic conversion which would transfer military industrial capacity into alternative domestic production, such as mass transit, housing, and pollution controls, and employee benefits and training programs for areas adversely affected by the cancellation of the B-l program.

A 1969 Air Force planning contractors $238. In the city of Buffalo alone, more than $ 113 million in federal tax dollars would be required to finance the B-l for Erie and Niagara Counties. The total tax cost would therefore exceed $330 million. The B-l appears to have a good chance for authorization because of strong lobbying support from the military-related industries. A recent survey of President Ford’s Cohgressional voting record shows that he supported the “bread and butter” defense bills in 50 of 5 1 key votes. Sen. James Buckley (C-R., NY.) voted against nine key military amendments to cut spending over the past year. Local Congressman Jack Kemp’s (R., Hamburg) voting record parallels Sen. Buckley’s. Last summer, all three area Thaddeus Dulski Congressmen (D., Buffalo), Henry P. Smith (R., Tonawanda) and Rep.

The B-l is faster, more maneuverable, and carries twice as claim that the bomber is essential for national defense.

Organic farmers ACROSS ‘Community Farm Project’ Forty students and community members have organized their own organic food farm near the Amherst Campus, using untreated seeds and banning all insecticides. The “Community Farm Project” was begun by the North Buffalo Food Co-op and includes about half students and half community people. The idea of the farm is to get away from harmful machines and “the big-business approach of quantity, not quality,” said Steve Ewald.-a worker for the project. He also hopes the project will encourage interaction between the participants and allow them to “get a greater knowledge of farming.” Farmers in the area are “enthused” with the project, he remarked. Democracy The project is on a quarter acre of land at the corner of Sweet Home Road and Chestnut Lane, which was loaned to the group by the Lutheran Ministry. The farm is being run on a year-to-year basis because the church plans to use the land in later years. The group practices its own democracy. It has no specific leaders and everyone works together. Each member averages one visit per week to the farm. The work includes cleaning the land, transplanting trees, building a greenhouse, working the soil with lime, and planting and caring for the crops. There are no hourly requirements, however. The crops will include herbs like parsley, marjoram, wormwood and thyme in addition to three or four varieties of tomatoes, melons, beans and squash. The group is trying to locate a tractor for the farm, and has already obtained a roto-tiller from a friend of Rachel Carson College. Supply co-op Seeds for the farm, purchased in February through the Food Co-op at a third of the usual cost, can also be purchased at the Co-op’s store on Main Street near the University. Much planning has been done for the project. Soil samples and related research have been employed. Rowers and berries will be grown around the crops to divert the bugs and birds. Members of the group hope to supply the Food Co-op sufficiently with what they grow. Mr. Ewland has also urged anyone interested to join the group, noting that the farm is readily accessible to the Amherst campus. The workers there are ready to assist anyone with their own garden. Contact with the group can be made through the Food Co-op. The members meet every Monday at noon in Trailer nine. Also, there are plans for people willing to stay on the farm during the summer. -Neil Hedin DON’T MISS THE COLLEGE HARNESS RACING CHAMPIONSHIP FRIDAY MAYft POST TIME 7:30 PM.

There will be no such time. Instead of being able to say “Why not go see it next weekend,” I am reduced to saying, “You should have been there.” And you should have. The name of the program was Dance Repertory, presented at the Amherst campus’ Katherine Cornell Theater, under the direction of Jill Fothergill, oh April 25 and 26. To this reviewer, who walks without grace and who climbs stairs with a secret quickening of the heart, any effort to invest human movement with beauty and smoothness and precision is a delight. At moments during the performance (there were seven pieces all together) this delight was lessened: sometimes due to the uneven quality of particular dances, but more often because anyone watching the dances did so through the disturbing medium of real physical pain. Architecture Let me explain. At first sight, the Katherine Cornell Theater seems to be a true anomaly in the whole context of Amherst-style architecture. That is to say, it actually looks as if it were built thoughtfully with some definite purpose in mind. And anything suggesting evidence of intelligent design on the Amherst campus is impressive, since it is a kind of techno-Gothic moonscape of a place, characterized by sidewalks that lead nowhere, maze-like corridors, unmarked doors (gasp! it’s the ladies’ room!), elaborate lounges devoid of people, and left-handed water fountains. To the eye at least, the theater is a study in contrast. It is boldly designed in brick and wood and gives the immediate impression of richness and expanse. Everything seems clean and well-ordered. The superstructure is exposed in the ceiling and all beams, lights and wires cluster around two impressively new sections of gleaning orange duct-work. The wooden seating sweeps up from the dance floor on two sides and is constructed on the sauna-bath principle: wide and deep and simple, like stairways for giants. Ouch! But try sitting on these things for an hour and a half. That’s where the physical pain comes in, and that’s where the Katherine Cornell Theater becomes, to some degree, just another bold, pretty and badly-designed trick. "To some degree,” that is, because the theater served its purpose well in the end: the acoustics were wonderful, there were odd and interesting surfaces to dance upon and hide behind, the floor was wide and clean and noiseless, and the technical wizards who parlayed in the glass booth in the rear of the theater put an impressive lighting OF POVERTY Econ. 303-Y 4 Cr.

Betsy Wagner, also a member of the theater department’s Zodiaque dance company and easily a dramatic and technical stand-out in either group, choreographed and danced the third piece, “Domus,” using Norman Dello Joio’s “Theme and Variations from Sonota No. 3.” Using a central prop as an emblem of “domus” (Home), Betsy acted out all the emotions involved in that compelling emblem of stasis: the delight at leaving, the joy and terror and work of being away and the exhaustion of getting back. It was a very competent piece and when the lights went down (on both nights) the audience called uproariously for more. There was even some shrieking and whistling. Ay? There was one more piece before the intermission, “Song for Those Who Cannot Hear,” choreographed by Cheryl Johnson. The music was haunting and appropriate. Hannah Priwer, another fine and complete dancer with good range (as I was to see later), acted the part of “conductor” to the rest of the dancers, who were dressed in black leotards with a zi-zag design and who danced with an air of mystery suited to their costumes. When the lights went up for intermission, it took several minutes to unfold myself and fight down the waves of pain before I went out to the corridor for a drink of lukewarm water and a brisk walk down the hall to stretch out my pulled muscles and grinding joints. Of course, I nearly got lost.

The entire Dance Repertory group was featured in this piece and it was a fitting way to end a program which had its origins in an entire class. What a fine way to take a final exam! To hell with writing anything down. The musical accompaniment for this last dance was live and featured an original score by Richard Shulman. — — Immediately after the performance (on both nights), the musicians burst into an impromptu number or two or three and very soon had the whole audience jumping and stomping and grinding and floating on the dance floor, giving'“Dance Repertory” a weird, funny twist at the end.

It was a comic piece which only faintly suggested the tragedy of five women playing out the roles assigned to them in life. They posed, they played, they gossiped (this was a fine mimic touch), and they even excluded one of their number. There was a real mannequin quality to this piece, presented very humorously and well. I remember especially the perfect, dead-pan beauty of Suzanne Chankin, who also appeared in two of the other dances. “Unicycle (theme and variations), choreographed and performed by Cheryl Johnson, was the second solo of the program. She was accompanied by the live saxaphone of Art Levinowitz (to good measure), but I think her “theme” had too many “variations.” It was simply too long and too thematically repetitive, but the dancing was technically good throughout and she has fine dramatic talent. passport photos, grad school applications, med school applications, law school applications; 3 photos: $3 (i.SO each additional with original order) O'Brian Hall 3*oS/ door, which turned out to be the ladies’ room.

The dancers entered the scene from the stairways at either side, and at various times ran up and down these same stairs to dance, play and hide from the audience. Good effect.

When production is running at its regular rate, the ovens are about 90 percent black. It’s only during times of economic recession, when work is shortened, and a lot of departments are down and shifts are decreased, that a mixture of white and black guys come down from different departments.

While I spoke to the doctor, he explained a theory he had developed over the years. The only real problem in the coke ovens was that guys from other departments who were transferred down there when work was short were accustomed to an easier workload and would always complain, he said.

Monday, 5 May 1975 i Overloading and malfunctions in the central computer at Ridge Lea have reached a crisis stage for students and faculty. The situation will probably grow worse before it gets better. Students from the School of Management, as well as other research disciplines which require computer correlation for their programs, face a “short-circuiting of the education process” according to Arun Jain, an assistant professor of Operations Analysis, who teaches both graduate and undergraduate classes. He said his students no longer have an opportunity to complete their course work without frustrating delays. Computer inefficiency has been a problem on this campus for several years, but in the last two months, the main CDC6400 computer has been “down” (inoperable) for extended periods of time due to suspected power failures, lost file modifications, and errors introduced into the permanent file system as attempts were made to reload backup tapes. The post of director of University Computing is currently vacant pending negotiations between President Robert Ketter and an applicant who will be selected by a screening committee. Temporary director Charles Moll agreed that the central computer is “saturated.” Present estimates of computed input range unofficially from two to four times its intended capacity, but “we are close to a configuration that would solve the general computer problems,” Mr. Mall stressed. Rectification begun The wheels began turning to rectify the situation on March 7, when current and projected computing needs of the University were outlined in a Request for Proposal (RFP). Vendor proposals, bids designed to meet the needs collected in the RFP, are due to be submitted to a selection committee today. The committee will then review, evaluate and select the best proposal. Barring special arrangements, the earliest possible date for replacement of present equipment is August 1975V but Mr. Moll stated that a more realistic date would be January or February 1976. This anticipated delay is expected to worsen the computer services crisis in the fall especially if the number of Management students increase considerably. Computer use will increase an estimated 25 percent and further burden the already overloaded services. Marty Schoen, an undergraduate Management student, said students are sadly apathetic to their own plight. Dr. Jain concurred that students and faculty must become more actively involved to accelerate the upgrading of computing services. j New minority medical clinic concentrates on prevention Black medical and nursing students from the State University at Buffalo are currently operating a unique clinic that specializes in preventive medicine, providing routine check-ups for patients before they get sick. Gregory Morton, director of the Inner City Well Health Center and a senior medical student here, explained that patients who simply want a physical examination must usually wait in over-crowded waiting rooms where the “sick are seen first.” The clinic alleviates this problem, he explained.

We are currently in the market for microscopes and other items which will help us expand our preventative services to the community,” said Mr, Morton. In addition to providing these special medical services, Mr. Morton hopes the clinic will encourage minorities to enter health-related professions. He indicated that nay senior or junior high school student is permitted to observe the clinic in action. Although preventive services are free to the entire Buffalo community, staff positions (all volunteers) are limited to minorities. The center is open Saturdays, 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. It is located at the UB Educational Opportunity Center, 465 Washington Ave. The Center’s volunteers hope to secure a new location closer to the “Fruit Belt.” “Such a location would make us more accessible to the elderly and others who may have a problem getting to us now,” Although it does not treat illnesses, Mr, Morton said the clinic has ,‘excellent” rapport with local hospitals, clinics and physicians so that “if someone comes in who really needs treatment we can make an immediate referral.” The center has operated for the past two years, and is financed by the medical school’s student Mr. Morton said. �Statistics box £-p*tP C//A\K?IQ>* SJk4U0WE£ 23rd Annual Buffalo Invitational Track Meet, May 3 at Sweet Home High School.

Player Bulls pitching excels with two one-hitters by Dave Hnath Contributing Editor Fast moving ultimate frisbee Buffalo’s Ultimate Frisbee team opened and closed its first season with a well-played 43-38 loss to the Rochester Institute of Technology (R.l.T.) Tigers. The contest was played at R.l.T.’s indoor athletic complex April 26. Ultimate Frisbee is a fast-moving, competitive, noncontact sport played by two seven-man teams. One point is scored when a player successfully passes the frisbee to a teammate standing in the end zone which his team is currently attacking. The Frisbee may be moved only through the air. No player may walk, run, or take any steps while in possession of the Frisbee.. The baseball Bulls opened their eight-games-in-five-days session Saturday on Peelle Field, squeaking by Canisius 1-0 on John Buszka's one-hit shutout in the opener. Then freshmen Mike Betz and Dave Borsuk combined on a second one-hitter in the nightcap for an 11-2 win that completed the twin-bill sweep. The opener was a classic pitching duel between Buszka and the Griffin’s Bill Leonard. Neither team crossed the plate until the seventh when the Bulls spoiled Leonard’s whitewash bid. Buffalo second-baseman Larry Whelan opened the inning with one of the Bulls’ six singles. Jack Kaminska then executed the Bulls’ ubiquitous sacrifice-bunt play perfectly, leaving first base open for Leonard to intentionally walk Bull left-fielder Dan Gorman. Following a fly ball, hot hitting Bob Amico then laced his second of four hits for the day to centerfield, bringing home the winning run. Stop that frisbee The defensive team can gain possession by an interception, striking the frisbee while in flight, causing it to fall to the ground, or if the offensive team does not complete a pass. In each case, possession is gained at the point where the frisbee is stopped. Don O’Sullivan, who led the Bulls’ attack with Pin-point control Bulls third Buszka’s performance was by far the best showing by a Buffalo pitcher this year. The junior left-hander gave up just one walk to go with the lone hit, a double by Canisius leadoff hitter Jerry Przybylski. At one point, John struck out eight of nine batters, failing only on Przybylski’s double. He finished with eleven strikeouts. The second game proved to be a hit parade. After his squad took an early 9-1 lead, Buffalo coach Bill Monkarsh paraded eighteen men through the Bulls’ line-up, providing punch for Betz and Borsuk. Betz looked particularly impressive, striking out five of the ten batters he faced in three innings. Penn, Scoring streaks The Tigers, who have been playing the sport for nearly five years, then used their experience and scored 13 of the next 14 goals. With the score 13 to 2 a determined Buffalo team fought back to trail by only three. The score was 21-18 at the end of the first half. Aroused by the Bulls’ late first half rally, R.I.T. quickly ran off a streak of seven straight goals to open the second half. At this point, the Bulls called time-out and came roaring back to within three goals, but R.I.T, proved to be equal to the task by holding off repeated attempts by the Bulls to tie the score. “We were very happy with our showing,” said club president Gary Stuber in reference to his team’s near upset against a better and more experienced R.I.T. club. school wins track meet by Dan Greenbaum Spectrum Staff Writer Edinboro State College from saw and came, Pennsylvania conquered five other teams in the 23rd annual U.B. Invitational Track Meet at Sweet Home High School Saturday. They sored 148 ending up behind a points Institute of strong Rochester (R1T) team that Technology almost doubled the Bulls’ point total.

Schumacker also had a big day with six goals and nine assists. Edinboro’s showing strong came not only because they were able to win so many events but because their depth allowed them more than one place to competitor in each event. They swept two events (mile run and pole vault) and placed at least two men in nine events. Malady and Stephens star numerous distractions. “I think I can win it if I could shining lights for the Bulls. Halady won the hammer throw and breezed by his opponents in the shot put, throwing 49’3” and breaking a meet record set in concentrate better. People keep crossing in front of me on the runway,” he said during the competition. Eldred stumbled 1965. Though Eldred Stephens won only one event, he came in second and third in.two others, and won the trophy for the highest scorer in the tournament for the second year in a row. He could have scored higher had he won the triple jump, an event he usually excels in, but he was bothered by while running for his last jump, causing him to foul. Stephens’ main competition in the event was RIT’s Fred Clark, who bettered the meet record for the triple jump by a foot. The only other record to be broken was by pole vaulter Rick Motter of Edinboro, who cleared 14’6”. NEWMAN CAMPUS MINISTRY Ascension Thursday, May 8th Main St. Campus Masses 15 University Awe.

Ten return to Haas Lounge at p.m. with a formal response. by Amy Dunkin Managing Editor More than 300 students demonstrated outside Hayes Hall yesterday to vent their anger at President Robert Ketter’s refusal to answer a list of four demands at a general meeting of the student body at noon Dr. Ketter was meeting inside his Hayes office with representatives from several campus constituencies to answer questions about the events surrounding last week’s arrest Three of the 12 groups invited to the meeting in Dr. Ketter’s office chose to boycott because they were angered that several of the groups who signed the demands were not asked to attend. Throughout the day. Dr. Ketter defended the actions be quell took to the student demonstration last Friday. Students reassembled in Haas Lounge later in the afternoon, and called for a strike Monday to demonstrate student solidarity for the demands and other grievances regarding the future of the Day Care Center, the dismissal of professors without explanation, and attacks on the more radical Colleges. Heading the list of demands, which was signed by individuals representing campus nineteen organizations and presented to Dr. Ketter Wednesday, was a request that the administration immediately drop all charges against the students arrested at the Hayes Hall sit-in last Friday. Student rights the Additionally, groups demanded that the administration “recognize the right of the student to have governments control over their funds.” refrain from calling city police onto campus, and establish a civil Campus review board for Friday, 2 May 1975 of New York at Buffalo 2:45 The second student meeting commenced with a breif recap of the events of the last two weeks and a pledge to fight for student rights and interests. “If we don’t reposnd to Ketter and his undemocratic way of running this University, we’ll all be bulldozed under,” one speaker said. Another announced that because Dr. Ketter did not answer the demands at noon, his response could be interpreted as a negative the various constituencies on campus. SA President Michele Smith entered Dr. Ketter’s office at three o’clock but left the meeting a few minutes later after stating, “I feel this is not an appropriate forum and I am going to leave.” However, SA Executive Vice President Art Lalonde remained, claiming that his attendance was mandated by a resolution passed by the Student Assembly earlier this week calling for Dr. Ketter to justify his actions “before an independent commission of faculty and students.” Good faith Asked why many of the groups signed that the demands, the Attica including Support . to invite planned speakers, "but they didn’t even know who was going to speak . . . Clearly an educational program had not been defined.” It was at this point that the students demonstrators convened outside Hayes Hall. Although the chanting was clearly audible. Dr. Ketter ordered the meeting to continue. Why not Bob? that this is an time for you to explain why you did not go out to to the of speak group demonstrators in the lobby of Hayes Hall last Friday,” said Mr. Lalonde. Dr, he had Ketter said indicated he would meet with a representative ggroup, but the “I think appropriate Security They also insisted that an administration spokesperson be sent to an open meeting in Haas Lounge yesterday at noon to deliver a response. Failure to appear at this meeting, they warned, would be considered a negative reply on the part of the administration. Late Wednesday afternoon. Dr. Ketter consented to hold a meeting in his office yesterday at 3 p.tn. to be broadcast live over WBFO radio and the Norton Hall public address system. He invited representatives from the Student (SA). Association Graduate Student Association (GSA), the Millard Fillmore, Medical and Dental SA’s, the Student Bar Faculty-Senate, Association, Professional Staff Senate. CSFA, The Spectrum, and the Reporter. In response to the students’ demands. Dr. Ketter sent Ron Stein, associate Director of the Office of Student Affairs, to the general meeting in Haas Lounge yesterday at noon. Although Mr. Stein did not make any publicannouncement at that time, he informed the crowd through a that he would spokesperson one. “But let's hear what Dr. Stein has to say," the speaker conceded Dr. Stein's announcement lasted no more than five minutes. He said Dr Keller would address all quesions at the 3 p.m. meeting in his office that would be broadcast over WBFO and that listeners could call in “Dr. Ketter has chosen this as the boradest forum to possible anser questions.” Dr. Stein concluded. The crowd, disappointed that Stein did not state the Dr administration’s position on the demands, responded with cries of “Where is Ketter? We’re calling out to him.” At 3:15, the students voted to march peacefully to Hayes Hall for 20 minutes. Campus Security officers were doors in riot unauthorized stationed at gear to persons the prevent from entering Incantations The students marched around the building twice, chanting, “Hands off the UB 10, drop the charges now.” They then stopped in front of Dr. Ketter’s office, and with a bullhorn to the window, began shouting “Attica means frenzied fight back” in the rhythm of an incantation. There were also cries of "We want Ketter’s ass.” The group then paraded back to Norton Hall where it decided to endorse a student strike of classes Monday and to meet this afternoon at one p.m. in Haas Lounge. “We want to organize other people. If each member of the group recruits one person, we will double the figure from 500 to 1000,” said Dave Strong of the Attica Support Group Meanwhile, the Student Bar Association, the Dental SA, and The Spectrum had agreed to boycott the meeting in Dr. Ketter’s office to protest the exclusion of many campus representative groups. Dr. Ketter said later that he had invited the organizations he tel* represented Group and NYPIRG, were not invited to the meeting. Dr. Ketter said SA was permitted to bring two people of its choice and that Group two Support Attica members had declined to attend "We believe that we have acted in good faith and that SA has been acting in good faith." he said responded He then to a question by Phyllis Schaffner. President of the MFCSA, concerning whether or not Dr. Ketter has the right to control mandatory student fees. Any money collected by the University “is . . . State money.” and is subject to any guidelines the State may impose. Dr. Ketter the 1970 citing responded. Stringer case in which the Court ruled that an allocation by the State University at Albany SA for buses to a demonstration in Washington was illegal. GSA Treasurer Bert Herbert reflected that Ketter’s Dr decision to veto the SA allocation as interpreted be might reactionary. OK Dr Ketter explained, however, that he was simply not convinced of the social, cultural, recreational the or educational value of Albany expedition. There was an almost identical request on April 2nd which looked OK at first. Dr Ketter said “But after the fact, we found that most of what the supporters said would happen never happened,” he explained. He said students told him they planned to view the legislature in session between one and two p m. "but upon making a phone call we learned that the legislature did not even meet until after 2:30.” The students also indicated they had plans to attend Assemblyman Arthur Eve’s speech before the legislature, “but we phoned Mr, Eve, and he said he had no plans to make such an address; and that he might not even.be in Albany at the time .” explained Ketter the Dr. demonstrators declined the offer. “The door was physically barred, the students refused to open up the building, and we could not even talk with them,” Dr. Ketter said. George Hochfield. Chairman of the Faculty Senate, then asked if the students participating in the demonstration were sufficiently warned of the consequences of their actions. “I feel that there was adequate warning, and most knew the consequences,” Dr Ketter replied. “For over an hour we tried to convince the students (to open up access to the office), then we finally gave them five minutes warning to clear the area.” Asked if he felt the ten students were suspended adequately informed of their right to a show-cause hearing. Dr. Ketter stated, “I assume that a person is able to read, and this is the first time that the confusion has occurred.” Trained for disorder Dr. Hochfield also asked if the Campus Security force had been recently trained for campus disorders, and if Dr. Ketter was satisfied with their performance during last week’s events. President University Vice Albert Somit explained that all Security officers must attend special training schools where they learn “crowd control.” According to Dr. Somit, Campus Security was not armed with guns or equipped with riot-helmets. “They behaved very well and did not use excessive force, despite severe provocation,” Dr. Ketter asserted. Dr. Ketter also said the increased presence of Security on campus is justified, citing the demonstration outside the meeting as indicative of the need. “When the level of activity comes down,” Dr. Ketter said, “so will Campus Security.” Dr. Hochfield asked why it was necessary to subject the 10 —continued on page 2— �Daycare problems cog, nue Early Childhood Development Center may halt operations by Rosalie Zuckerman Spectrum Staff Writer her to the next meeting.

TICKEtRON OUTLETS 23- �Prison reform bills unveiled by Sparky Alzamora Subcommittee, which virtually guarantees that they will, be voted upon by the State Legislature, they were previewed by representatives from concerned citizen groups, civil liberties and Campus Editor State Assembly Democrats have unveiled bills on prison reform which they termed “the first phase of a program that will make good on the promises made after the Attica uprising.” The co-sponsors of the bills, Assemblymen Saul Weprin, Chairman of the Correctional Institutions Subcommittee, and Stanley Fink, Assembly Codes Committee Chairman, were determined to push for reform measures that “would close down any institution found unsafe, unsanitary or inadequate.” , The Assembly is expected to vote on the bills within the next two weeks. Some of the key measures of the package seek to establish a Division of Prison Health Services, educational rehabilitation youth in programs for correctional facilities, and secure a procedure . of due process to enact safeguard the rights of prisoners facing severe disciplinary action. the reform Additionally, measures would give inmates the right to see and answer written reports on parole and probation that the hearings, and require Parole Board include two former inmates among its members. “The other bills in the package have significance in that they address themselves to a wide variety of long-standing and justified inmate grievances,” Mr. Fink asserted. Before the bills were reported by the Codes Committee legal rights organizations. “The conference gave us the opportunity to go through this legislation line with people who are in daily contact with inmates and prison life. It was a proof-reading session with experts that will help us make these measures as relevant as possible,” said Mr. Fink “It takes a catastrophe to accomplish' anything,” said Mr. Weprin, who believes the move for prison reform stemmed from the tragedy of the Attica uprising in 1971. “It’s a problem in our society that they [people] need a shock to react,” he maintained. He said certain legislators had tried to enact prison reforms over the past four years, but these recommendations were often killed in committee. Mr. Weprin feels the present administration in is “much more Albany sympathetic” to the problems of prison reform. Roy Lansky, a research analyst in the subcommittee on Prison and Correctional Institutions, claimed the Republicans had much to do with the delay in implementing such reforms. In areas of high crime, politicians of their constituents who believe in the “lock ’em up and throw away the must bow to the wishes key” philosophy, he explained. However, Mr. Weprin would not pinpoint the blame on the Republicans, stating that people had different reasons for opposing the reform measures. If the bills pass the State Legislature, most would be effective immediately within two months of the passage, Mr. Weprin said. “Most of the items in this package don’t require that muchmoney,” he explained, stressing that this factor will probably have a favorable influence on many legislators. Shut-downs? One important recommendation of the package is the establishment of a permanent investigage the prisons. The committee would ultimately have the power to close down any committee problems to in correctional institution that did not abide by standards set by this body. , prison is obsolete, according to Mr. Weprin. Eighty-five percent of the prisoners actually need medium or minimum security facilities. These prisoners, who will be in jail for relatively short periods of time, could be transferred to other quarters preferably unused Catholic convents rented by the state, he said. But the eventual shut-down of such large fortresses, like Attica, will be difficult, Mr. Weprin admitted. Mr. Weprin said he hoped that most New York prisons would adopt a program similar to the one currently underway at Bedford Hills prison, where an outside organization (Chase Manhattan Bank, in this case) Attica prisoners occupational once they leave the institution. After gaining skills in different areas, “they won’t go back to crime,” Mr. Weprin offers training believes. Generally, prison officials have reacted favorably to the reform measures, and, many believe, are willing to act in the best interests of the prisoners if the bills go into effect. Mr. Weprin is pleased by the new breed of prison guards that is gradually replacing the old line. They are younger and more educated, “a change for the better,” he declared. One obstacle blocking the move for prison reform is the attitude people have towards the prisoner. “They would rather not be bothered with them,” said Mr. Weprin. Altering these attitudes would take a “change in atmosphere” to alleviate such callous feelings, he asserted. Hill sentence delayed; defense charges probed by Sherrie Brown voices of about 100 supporters shouted slogans outside in support of the Attica brothers. Court guards quickly shut the windows but the voices could still be heard. Contributing Editor The sentencing of Dacajeweiah (John Hill) has been postponed until May 7 by State Supreme Court Justice Gilbert H. King so that a hearing can be held to consider defense charges of government misconduct which may result in a mistrial. William Kunstler, defense attorney for Dacajeweiah, told the court Wednesday that he would argue government suppression of evidence misconduct on five grounds under selective prosecution, withholding of unilateral defense access to prison parole records, the invasion of the defense camp by an informer, the tainting of the jury and the inclusion of Charley Joe Pernasalice in Dacajeweiah’s Mr. Kunstler, raising his voice, spoke of the injustice of the trial and the loss of morality in the country. Judge King then shouted, “I am happy to live in this country, I think it’s a great country,” to which Mr. Kunstler retorted, “Dacajeweiah may rot in jail the rest of his life because the country yo.if love so much would not give him a fair trial.” — “In essence,” Mr. Kunstler continued, “I am hoping for a miracle in this courtroom, I am asking for the semblence of some justice. Discussing his changing views of American justice since first becoming a lawyer, he said, “It’s hard to stand before a judge and say everything you thought you believed in was a lie.” Going through the courtroom process is like playing “charades,” he asserted. trial. Investigation suppressed Mr. Kunstler cited as evidence of selective prosecution reports by Malcolm Bell, who resigned from his position as Attica assistant special prosecutor because his superiors allegedly prevented him from investigating the crimes committed by state officials. Mr. Kunstler charged that Mr. Bell’s report had been “deliberately suppressed” by Justice Carmen F. Ball (who is in charge of all the Attica related trials) since he received it on January 30. “We have grave doubts about your impartiality in this think is demonstrable,” Mr. Kunstler told the Judge. Mr. Kinstler then discussed the testimony of Mary Jo Cook, an FBI informer who allegedly supplied the FBI with specific information about Dacajeweiah and his defense’s legal and courtroom strategy. Discussing the “open and wanton tainting” of the jury, Mr. Kunstler pointed to the “dangerous” fact that the jury was escorted to meals by the same division of the Erie County sheriffs deputies that were involved in the Rebuttal Special state prosecutor Louis Aidala responded to Mr. Kunstler’s charges, maintaining that “like in the trial, Mr. Kunstler continues to argue without foundation.” He said the criminal law codes Mr. Kunstler cited as grounds for dismissal were not related to the trial. He also said the charges of jury tainting were groundless, as was Ms. Cook’s testimony since it did appear on the record during the trial and were therefore irrelevant. case, whiph we 1971 retaking of prison. Pricky remark He also related that one of the alternate jurors, who was dismissed from the case, told the defense that one of the police guards called defense attorney Margret Ratner “a prick” in front of the jury. Although the juror was present and willing to testify, Judge King said he would not allow him to until he had signed an affidavit. Judge King said he would require a signed affidavit before hearing the testimony of a ijewsman who told the defense that he was informed by four jury members before deliberations began that they were going to convict the defendants. Despite claims by the defense that requiring the newsman to file an affidavit instead of ordering him to testify would endanger his job, the judge upheld the ruling. William Kunstler (left), attorney for Dacajewiah, expresses his views on the postponement of sentencing and denial of bail for his client outside County Hall on Wednesday. On hand for the legal circus was Dennis Banks, a leader of the American Indian Movement (AIM), of Wounded Knee fame. The informed the defense that he would willingly testify if summoned but did not want to reveal his name beforehand. Mr. Kunstler called the inclusion of Mr. Pernasalice in the case a “fraud.” He then stated that prosecution witness Melvin Rivers told the defense after the trial that another prosecution witness, Edward Zimmer, who was with him the entire morning William Quinn was killed, had lied about seeing Mr. Pernasalice strike the prison guard. newsman Shouting match At this point, a shouting match developed in the courtroom between Mr. Kunstler and Judge King as the Refuting the charge that Mr. Pernasalice’s presence in the case was a “fraud,” Mr. Aidala said, “I don’t know who dreams up these evil thoughts,” but, “it takes a lot of imagination, and reveals more about the person who has the thoughts than anyone else.” He then proceeded to defend the jury, which he said is “to be complimented for their verdict. Let there be no question here, that the defendants had a jury of their peers. “On the jury, we had an example of young people who did their duty,” Mr. Aidala continued. “1 want the community to know that there are some good young people here,” he said. Mr. Kunstler requested that Dacajeweiah be given bail due to the new developments. However, the judge refused the request, claiming that he did not have the authority to release someone on bail who had been convicted of a Class A felony. He then censured Mr. Kunstler for supposedly telling the press that he did indeed have that right, instigating a headline in the New York Post which said “Kunstler Rips Attica Judge.” 2 May 1975 .

University Master Plan to shape academic operations 71 individual campus master plans throughout the state, establishes guidelines for the academic future by Kim Weiss Spectrum Staff Writer The new State University at Buffalo Master Plan, which will dictate the University’s academic operations for at least the next four years, should be ready for approval by the SUNY Central Administration by the end of June. Formulation of an original draft of the plan by former Vice President for Academic Affairs Bernard Gelbaum stirred up considerable controversy last year. New York State Education Law mandates that the State University prepare a state-wide master plan every four years. The SUNY Central plan, which consists of edited versions of the of each campus. Ultimately, the S tate University of Buffalo’s master plan will go to the State Board of Regents for review of its many provisions, according to Robert Berner, Dean of the Division of Continuing Education, who is also deputy coordinator for the development of the plan here. ‘Missions’ The plan is, in effect, an application to the Board of Regents for instituting new programs or phasing out old ones. Each state campus has been instructed by SUNY Central to indicate any major changes in their academic offerings in the Master Plan. A “mission” is considered one of 24 general areas of study specified in the Higher Education General Information Survey (HEGIS), which includes the fields of Architecture, Law, Psychology, Social Sciences, and Data Processing Technology. Buffalo offers 20 out of the 24 possible missions. Agriculture, Home Economics, Military Science and Theology are the four missing areas. Academic missions here have reamined the same over the last ten years and there will be no changes made this year either. Dr. Berner explained. “We shall simply reiterate our previous academic mission status,” he said. Pannil and The best minds S—F in are at THE LITTLE PROFESSOR BOOK CENTER.

News spread quickly into the mines, mills and factories. There were many work stoppages, some strikes, all spreading what became a battle cry: “An eight hour day at the same wages.” Chicago was the center of the movement fighting to establish the eight-hour day, and most of the work' and stoppages demonstrations took place in the Middle West. At the end of April 1886, more than 100,000 workers in and around the city were out on strike, including those from the McCormick Harvester works, which was notoriously anti-labor. On May 1, 1886, the workers of Chicago demonstrated in the streets in one of the largest gatherings ever held there, before or since. It was a peaceful demonstration. On May 3, August Spies, a veteran labor leader, spoke at a mass meeting of workers. McCormick Police attacked the workers and six of them were murdered. Leaders murdered Mr. Spies and Albert Parsons, another veteran leader, called for a rally the following day to the killings. protest On the evening of May 4, as the protest meeting concluding was peacefully, an agent provocateur, identity whose was never U.B.

Among the marchers were Ishmael Flory, now chairman of the Illinois Communist Party, and Joe Cook, a Communist who was also a leader of the Steel Workers Organizing Committee (SWOC). Communists in the lead Mr. Cook, who was a member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party, was elected president of the Valley Molde Lodge of the Steelworkers Union, one of the country’s first Black Presidents of a union local where the vast majority of the workers were white. Many marchers carried signs saying “We remember Memorial The Day Memorial Massacre had occurred only 1 1 months before near the Republic Steel works.

Thereby, in effect, they lent labor support to the policy that brought an average loss of 10 percent in purchasing power to workers while profits smashed all records. Today the working class is moving into new areas of struggle. There is a growing sturggle against racism. There -is a growing movement for rank-and-file democracy in many unions. A drive to organize the unorganized is needed, especially among Black and other minority workers, and new areas of struggle. There is a growing fight to defend the people’s living standards, which deteriorating as inflation increases and the country passes through one crisis after another. are Unity and discipline Hie militant iaoor neritage that began here in Chicago in 1886 provides a solid foundation for achieving these goals, and May Day is the best time for taking stock and planning ahead. On this May 1st, 1975, the State University at Buffalo has also tasted the repressive atmosphere and force of an Administration represented by Robert Ketter and the big business interests of the area. Students cannot use their own voted funds without having the administration sanction it. The right to protest is met by force not reason. This attitude stems from the century-old falsehoods which propagandists have into the U.S. labor movement that the workers of the U.S. are not a class, like the workers of other lands, that they have a common interest with those who employ them, and don’t need to express themselves in a class conscious way. The truth is that the workers of the U.S. do wage a class struggle, and often fight militantly and long as a class! The glaring fact that stands out this May Day is that the leaders of most unions, and the AFL-CIO instilled - For are mood first against the capitalist “establishment” over the rising cost of living, job insecurity, the multinational corporation trend, the prohibitive cost of health care, and the social and political International holiday The AFL requested the Second International to support its fight for the eight-hour day. The world’s working class leaders did so at the Second International’s First Congress, in Paris in 1889, voting to make May I, 1890, a labor day for world-wide demonstration. Since then, May Day has been an international labor holiday.

The historical struggle of working people in this country must show students, and faculty that whether the repressive forces is a Richard Nixon, Joe McCarthy, or a Henry Winston, who lost his vision in jail under the fascist Smith Act “They have robbed me of my sight by not my vision.” - Note: Jack Reinhach is an instructor in Social Sciences College and teaches a course entitled Labors Untold Past and Present. 2 May 1975 .

Nineteenth century’s grievances still plague modern Americans by Paul Krehbiel Our nation’s educational institutions continue to offer arguments and excuses for our government’s domestic and foreign policies, while attacking those teachers and students who are seeking to think critically and learn the complete story behind the government’s official line.

The false ideology of racism, and the false idea that people are basically stupid or crazy is reinforced in the public mind by horror stories of increasing crimes, complete with close-up telophoto shots of bullet riddled bodies and blood-soaked sidewalks. No where is there an analysis of why crime exists, or the relationship between increasing crime, unemployment, poverty and lack of national direction or rational goals. Yet, the working people of this country continue to produce the goods and services that has given our country so much, without so much as a thank you. - Worker’s representation - But like our ancestors of the 1880’s, today’s American workers are pulling together to turn back the tide of unemployment and poverty. On April 26, an estimated 60,000 to 70,000 workers marched in Washington to demand full employment, an end to racial and sexual discrimination, the slashing of the military budget and the implementation of improved social services. These are the first steps to setting our nation on the right track. While some people are “blue collar” workers and others “white collar," a majority of them have something in common: 87 percent are wage-workers, with little say in determining economic policies. Only when this 87 percent ultimately gains representation in all economic, social and political institutions will the basic interests of the American people be secured. Last Great Show of the Year!

In either case, the farm operators are never concerned about the health of the workers, though sometimes they put up a charade of accomplishments. more lives While all this goes on, the county health departments who are charged with licensing and inspecting the camps, look the other way. They are a model of dereliction of duty. Farm workers’ wives are treated abominably. To their husbands, they are the most convenient persons to denounce, blame, repress. The migrant labor system is grounded in an ages-oid deception called piecework where workers are paid in accordance with how much they produce. This promotes quantity-mindedness and division among the workers by inciting them to incredibly Health clinics? Some time ago, a group of farmers created a “migrant clinic” in Silver Creek, which was open one night a week in a local firehouse. Transportation to the clinic from the migrant camps was virtually nonexistent during the time the clinic was in operation.

President Robert Ketter's refusal to meet with a unified group of students last Friday provoked violence, 10 arrests, and a general mood of unrest for the last seven days. By continuing to dodge such a forum Wednesday and Thursday, he has left even fewer channels open to students, Dr. Ketter's intransigence in declining the Attica coalition's demands, and his seemingly magnanimous choice of a meeting with certain select constituencies to be broadcast over campus radio, reinforced the coalition's impression that he wifi meet with select students only on his own bureaucratic terms. By excluding from the meeting almost every group that signed the list of demands, Dr Ketter has lent credence to charges that he is sidestepping Don't litter the issue and trying-to create divisions between the Attica To the Editor coalition and the various student governments, This letter is addressed to those people who enjoy sun-bathing in the fountain area. 1 find nothing wrong with basking in the sun, but what Dr. Ketter's rationale for omitting the Attica Support Group, Graduate Student Employees Clinic and other groups from the invitation list was out in large numbers do not accurately reflect the mood on campus.

The Attica brothers are, of course, political prisoners, since they’re poor, and should all get amnesty. Poor people who commit crimes in the future should not be put in jail anymore. I would say. people who make below S6000 a year should be allowed to kill and steal at will Anyway they’d only do it once after they got their psychological treatment they’d be cured. Psychologists can cure anything. Besides, crime is chiefly an economic phenomenon. It's obvious that a human being is just - a machine that will kill and steal when it’s poor, and Steven R.

While this may be so, it is also true that the Attica coalition's momentum has peaked and is sure to die once the semester ends, at least until September. It is imperative that students remain out of classes to remind the Administration that its actions of last week will not be tolerated. It is incumbent upon every student who has been involved until now to make a special effort to round up support from many other students, and for all students to spend Monday educating each other on the need for change Page eight . The Spectrum . 2 May 1975 I can’t help but see the irony that has recently rampant here at U.B. Namely, the Ketter Administration has once again displayed the most uncritical judgement in “policy decisions” (if, indeed, it has them), in the dismissal of Dr. James Lawler. Again, as with the Attica Bussing issue, the academic-educational criteria has shrouded the real political-educational reason. Professor Lawler, it is well known, is an ardent advocate of the left of center position one that is obviously intolerable to the present administrators. This is the real reason why he was fired. There can be no doubting it, in light of recent weeks. The argument by Drs. Ertell and Butler are not only a rehash of Gelbaum’s edicts last year, but, in all of their candor, they have not even bothered to change the language. Dr. Butler said, “Dr. Ertell gave serious consideration to Dr. Lawler’s academic record (but it was) not as strong as other faculty members.” This is verbatum the language which Dr. Gelbaum used last run - even on published in reputable journals. However, a recent article entitled “Hudegger’s Theory of Metaphysics Dialectics” recently appeared in the & internationally reputed journal Philosophy <$ Ertell Phenomenological Research. Drs. Butler cannot bg unaware of this journal; for it is published here at U.B.! I am sure of this because as provost ot the Social Sciences faculty, Dr. Butler generally has a recent copy of hand (or at least on desk) in his & office. I sometimes wonder, seriously, if administrators actually take a look at academic achievement in their evaluation. One thing is for sure in the case of Dr it is Lawler that this decision is not academic - - - political. Thomas Roger �by Jay Boyar Arriving in town in good time to stem or, better, change the flood) of June weddings is Swedish director Ingmar Bergman's latest film. Scenes From A Marriage is the story of John and Marianne, which starts by showing them complacent in union. Bergman describes it this way: "John and Marianne are conventional and set in their ways and believe in material security. They have never found their middle-class way of life oppressive or false. They have conformed to a pattern which they are prepared to pass on," — — tide (the In the course of the movie they meet the horrible doubts that those problems inherent in living eventually seek out their marriage — intimately and indefinitely with each other. We see them divorced and then in their post-marital affair with each other. And all of the scenes, especially the ones in which they are divorced, are scenes from a marriage. Swedish boob tube I wMk M0 Originally, the movie was a t.v. series; six 50-minute segments made for Sweden's small screens. In its present form, it has been trimmed down and spliced together into a nearly three-hour version. I find myself wondering to what extent the knowledge that it would be appearing on television influenced Bergman to stick to close-ups and two-shots as much as he did. Hard to say. Still, I don't think that Bergman would have initially attempted a subject to be shown on television tha did not, in some sense, jive with the medium. By the very nature vpf the subject explored, Scenes From A Marriage, t.v. or no t.v., would have demanded some concentration on the faces and bodies of the two principal characters. The camera is used suggestively to help define relationships. As John and Marianne are drawn together in love, we see them framed in the same shot; when they are angry or upset, the camera subtly separates themm. Camera In the last scene called "In the Middle of the Night in a Dark they snuggle together in love and House Somewhere in the World" trust as their faces seem to melt into a unified, comfortably warm, orange glow. And in the scene called "Paula" when John walks out on Marianne, the screen is compressed into a small rectangle by the frame of the doorway through which Johan will pass. As they argue and prepare to part, he clutching his huge suitcase while her eyes beg him to stay, we become especially aware of their small, dipolar world and — — its imminent disruption. "It is frightening," says a minor character. "Something peculiar is I mean feeling, sight, hearing happening. My senses are starting to fail me. For instance, I can say that this table is a table. I can see it, I can touch it, but the sensation is thin and dry." For the rest of that — — scene and for a while afterwards, we are inclined to watch the flat screen in terms of that clear, teary statement and to notice the gawky drabness of their middle class surroundings. Faces Playing Marianne and Johan are Liv Ullman and Erland Josephson —continued on page Magic Lantern 8 �Bergman... —continued from page 7— Theirs are the faces and bodies that Bergman's magic camera explores and transforms. He gently allows us to see what is essential. Esquire critic John Simon is clever and right when he says, "Bergman's The Magician is called The Faces in Sweden; and in the present film, truly, the face meets its magician." Liv Ullman's face is a bit like her freckles both on the surface and beneath it, changing drastically (occasionally disappearing) with every change of light. Tiny shades of mood are reflected in that face; the more you get to know her character, the more her face tells you and the other way around. She fills the screen and allows Bergman to she's like a beautiful, glowing capture her charm with his camera cushion. Part of her loveliness is due to the fact that she can, on occasion, look quite drab so it's no surprise when Marianne says of her childhood, "I was rather ugly and clumsy and was constantly informed of the fact." More than any other actress I know, Ullman manages to look, almost simultaneously, plain and pure. — — — Johan As Johan, Erland Josephson is full of surprises. Where Ullmann reveals an emotional character emotionally, Josephson displays his character in surprising turns of speech and quirky facial expressions. At times, he's just a teddy bear a funny, cuddly fellow. Even though Johan is well into middle age, he seems childlike maybe adolescent so that all the clever things he says seem as happily unusual as do acute remarks by a precocious youngster. Johan has more defenses than we're hypnotized as it Marianne, so Josephson's face hides more draws us to him for a closer look. These remarks about the aesthetics of camera and actors are made so that they won't be overlooked in the presence first for emphasis of what is, actually, more important in terms of this film. all fine Despite the occasional entrance of minor characters performances Scenes From A Marriage is mostly a dialogue, in a variety of settings, between Johan and Marianne — — — — Very Hot Tuna Super energy rock-blues reflected in a sound-mesh — — 1,000 words After viewing it, the feeling I got was not the electric elation I often experience after seeing a film I've enjoyed. Instead, I felt much as I do after reading a rich book full of ideas. Until now, I had often questioned the capability of cinematic form to explore an idea with the depth that a novel can. Scenes From A Marriage pushes back the frontiers of film. Using visual as well as verbal methods, the movie shows much truth about human existence and its most common institution. And it does so without tearing you apart, without shrieking or preaching, for that matter, at you. A marriage doesn't end, we see. Whatever passion drew the two figures together initially, and whatever subsequent memories are made together, the feelings will always live in each partner. The marriage never ends and no one ever really, really, says goodbye. Saying the film is something like a book is not at all to say that it is ponderous. It's alive and engaging. And I'm sure no one will imagine that I've compared it to a book because there are subtitles to read. In fact, the version now showing at the Amherst and Holiday theaters is (alas!) dubbed. Bergman has written, a propos of the movie's ending, "My idea now is that two new people begin to emerge from all this devastation. Maybe that is a little too optimistic but I can't help it, that's how it turned out." Those sassy folks who write the ads might do well to stress that the Dark, Dreary Bergman of films past is not especially the Bergman of Scenes From A Marriage.

Eddie's incestuous urges ultimately cost him his respect, his friends, and his life. dramatic "Classics: A Mini Repertory" is the Theater Department's tag for Don Sanders' current productions of Arthur Miller's A View From the Bridge and Bertolt Brecht's The Good Woman of Setzuan at the Courtyard Theater. Miller's work, at least, seems ill-fit for designation as a "classic," its major criterion in that respect being that it's over ‘ twenty years old and still being performed. Though Sanders' production of View is admirable in several respects, such effort is poorly spent on a play whose own virtues are negligible. Eddie Carbone (Tommy Koenig) is a Brooklyn dock worker, and the guardian of his orphaned niece Katie (Jola Siemerz), who is now eighteen. The state of affairs in the Carbone household is "hinted" at with leaden subtlety: Eddie refuses to allow Katie to leave home or to take a secretarial position; he also hasn't slept with his wife Bea (Rebecca Field) for months. The Carbones agree to shelter two "submarines" illegal Italian while they work in immigrants the STates.

More importantly, he clearly knows what this kind of family (a lower middle-class one) sounds like in day-to-day life, and how to write dialogue that draws on that knowledge. But these are tools, and Miller's fatal flaw is the use to which he puts them. Eddie Carbone is the kind of primal, almost bestial character Miller understands; had Eddie more tragedy, humor, and sheepish grace, he could be Willy Loman. But the crucial welding of this person with the basically alien aspect of an incestuous drive never takes place. And Miller has focused overwhelmingly on this facet. I cannot believe Miller's Eddie; thus View as a play, is empty at its center. Tfie Carbones contribute a fine continued on page 14 "It took generations to bring them together," as Simon notes in the before-the fact happy ending he tacks onto his autobiographical film masterpiece, inspired to prophecy by a glimpse of a gorgeous young woman (who, naturally, turns out to be Sarah) and her dog running through the sand of a French Riviera beach.

And eventual meeting the closing shot of the filmmaker's black suitcase gliding along a ramp on top of the heiress' conveniently matching white one about two minutes after they've finally gotten together on a New York-bound jet (and he's listened in astounished joy as she asks the stewardess for a third lump of sugar) — a first-class summing-up extremely heavy-handed technique. serves as Mushy of Lelouch's stuff But this kind of sentimental mush, taken in small doses and helped along by the relative excellence of the first segment, can be a lot of fun anyway. There is fine acting by Charles Denner, who plays both Sarah's father and the bit part of her grandfather. His David Goldman, who made his fortune by selling "the warmest shoes in the world" because his feet were always freezing in the German camp, has a gentle, quiet wisdom and a tenderness My Love, the three generations of historical build-up are compressed into two hours of pretty, romantic fable. But the lovely, light touch with which he begins his fairy tale is soon swept away by Lelouch's super-slick production and excessive cuteness, and the airy whipped cream has congealed by the final frame into a syrupy mass of cinematic gimmickery. Great expectations The opening half hour or so, a Sort of extended montage in which Lelouch details the series of coincidences leading to Sarah's birth, sets our expectations very high. The device by which he brings her maternal grandparents together in the first during their initial meeting in a Paris park, scene he propositions her (we learn from the silent-film titles) while she cranks his "machine for remaking life," la cinimatographe Lumiere, in fascination provides an inspired link with their granddaughter's love affair some 60 years later, and the frozen frames which are revealed as framed photographs in the sequences immediately following are extremely effective. That first beautiful shot of Lumiere's camera, though, is echoed so many times, in so many different situations, that it quickly becomes as boring as the concept first seemed original. Lelouch similarly overworks most of his good ideas, and a lot more (like the regular and quite irrelevant reappearances of French pop idol Gilbert Becaud, Sarah's first love since her father hired him to — — perform between a leading actress' legs) that wasn't all that interesting to begin with. Out of time The beautiful black-and-white sequences of French soldiers fleeing the cannon fire of World War I and concentration camp survivors being transported to safety after the next war during that first half-hour have a sensitivity which the Technicolored images of the rest of the film can't match. Similar attempts to place us "in time" in this second segment generally come down to banal conversations about Kennedy's assassination (She'll never find another man like him." Who knows? Maybe he was a great President and a nothing liver!") or swirling heads of Marilyn Monroe when Becaud learns of her suicide from Sarah. These purely random images and snatches of conversation seem to serve no other purpose than to stress the something contemporaneity of Lelouch's story which he shouldn't need to do in any case. — The director's constant use of parallelism as he the characters of Simon and Sarah cutting back and forth from his milieu to hers, often develops — which helps to make his first meeting with his wife Rachel probably the film's finest sequence. And it is no wonder that his spoiled-rotten daughter so strongly reminds him of Rachel Marthe Keller plays both roles, as well as that of Sarah’s camera-loving grandmother. But after giving us both the flirtatious charm of the turn-of-the-century beauty and the solemn grace of the scarred, scared refugee, Keller seems to have little energy left for the character who needs it most: her jet-setter Sarah is merely a vapidly beautiful shell. The role certainly does demand a certain degree of emotional emptiness; but long before she meets him, Sarah already seems as insubstantial as a figure in Simon's world of cinimatic dreams. Andre Dussollier's young filmmaker, by the way, is just as gorgeous and not very much more real. And Now My Love has been called "Lelouch's masterpiece" by at least one critic, but the director falls far short of master status by any more objective standards than his own. If the predictions made last week by the manager of the Granada Theater were correct, the film will have disappeared from the and Buffalo area by the time this reaches print »- — despite its merits, the loss will not be widely mourned. 2 May 1975 .

"Joey" talked about a few of his "hits," which, at the time this book was written, numbered 38. However, "Joey" is a very moral person he only kills organization people, never an honest man. Not only that, but "Joey" is grateful. He's grateful to the government for its role in organized crome. He thanks Uncle Sam for making illegal many vices, because he maintains that it is the U.S, government which keeps the Mafia in business. Throughout the entire book, this is the only thing "Joey" says which makes sense. Once you make something illegal, he insists, you make that item or service valuable because more people will want it.

Killer does have quite a few merits. For one thing, it is very informative, I found out who controls the mob in my neighborhood in the North Bronx. I also learned where to find my local bookie (who is usually, "Joey" tells us, the person we would least suspect). This book also teaches the proper method for killing people. Make sure that you trail your victim for a while before you bump him off. And remember, never use a pearl-handled revolver Tony Hillerman, Dance Hall of the Dead (Avon Books, paper) It seems that a major part of our spare time is consumed by violence. We are bombarded with it; we find it in the newspapers, on the television, in our reading material. It has almost gotten to the point FBI dragnet of the area, a Treasury Department narcotics agent investigating a local commune suspected of drug trafficking, and an archeological expidition digging up artifacts in an attempt to prove — where a book must place a certain amount emphasis on violence if it hopes to be successful. of So what is Dance Hall of the Dead all about? Violence, of course. But what makes this book unique is the impression these events make on the reader. Violence is not glorified as it is in the typical television show. Death is shown to be quite simply the end of a life, rather than the by product of a flashy gun battle. Here we are removed from the familiar plastic world of huge cities, dashing detectives, and great car chases. Instead, we are presented with the beautiful, — they leave fingerprints. To avoid becoming victim No. 39, I will say that his book has many redeeming social values. Who knows what "Joey" and my local Mafia boss might do to me if I don't take kindly to Killer ? —Robert Topaz anthropological theories. Eventually everything connects, and as Leaphorn discovers the real identity of the murderer he finds himself the target, with the final showdown occurring high in scorned the mountains of the Zuni reservation. One need not wonder why Dance Hall of the Dead won the Edgar Award for best mystery novel of the year. Unlike many other examples of genre, this novel unfolds a real mystery. At no time does it become prematurely apparent who the killer is, and the veil of suspense is lifted only as gradually as the Cary Trestyn author desires. — serene life of the deserts of New Mexico. It is here that a strange, almost dream like tale of suspense unfolds. Joe Leaphorn, a Navaho reservation policeman, is assigned the task of tracking down the prime suspect in a bizarre Indian ritual murder, a Navaho boy named George Bowlegs. The victim, a member of the Zuni tribe, had his head nearly severed from his body in a manner reminiscent of that used in Indian legend by the kachina (god) Salambia, who would inflict his sacred vengeance on those who had violated the Zuni religion. But barring any intervention by the gods, a murder is a murder, and find Bowlegs. As Leaphorn tracks his target, he appears to be almost an anachronism. His abilities to follow hoofprints and footprints through the desert creates a situation incredibly like that in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, and one almost expects Paul Newman to jump out from behind the nearest boulder, guns blazing. Often the whole novel reads Leaphorn sets out to like it is occurring in these bygone days, and the return to the modern leap through time. world seems like a fantastic As-George Bowlegs appears and disappears, the puzzling circumstances of the murder increase in this time the complexity. Another murder occurs victim is Shorty Bowlegs, George's father; once again, the corpse's head has been nearly severed from his body. It has by now become apparent to Leaphorn that George is not the murderer, but that he may be in fact the murderer's next target. — In addition to this primary plot, the story expands to include several loosely-connected subplots which all tie together at the end.

The infamous Fish had gone its way upstream by Thursday night, and there were other thoughts to occupy the minds of the more serious music listner-s jammed into every seat in the Century Theater: two of the most inventive rock guitarists alive, both slated to play totally new music; Beck with a new album out, McLaughlin with a new band. Intense. An unspoken sense of camaraderie (or perhaps, elitism) hung in the air: "hey man, we know where real music is." As I settled into my seat, a blonde guy with a New Yawk accent came on stage: "Welcome to the Century Theater. During the concert, no one will be allowed to use cameras with flashbulbs.

OAKSTONE FARM SUMMER PROGRAM 1975 GENERAL COURSE: THE IMPORTANCE OF PLATO TODAY: An Introduction to the Platonic Dialogues, showing that Plato's concerns are still of vital interest. We will compare his cultural values with our own, considering such things as the tensions between aristocracy and democracy in his thought, and the further implications of such ethical and social issues. A new method of structural analysis, applicable to many other subjects, reveals the diplomatic and dramatic impact of Plato's philosophical artwork. No prerequisites. SPECIAL COURSE. INTENSIVE ELEMENTARY GREEK : This course is designed specifically for the latecomer to the Classics, who has discovered a need for Greek as a basis for further classical, philosophical, religious, or literary pursuits. Beck had top billing, so I expected to see the man in white slide onto stage when the lights went out. Instead, I got Beck, looking every inch the classy Britisher in his tight body shirt and velvet jacket. The audience reacted with little more than polite applause: no bunch of fanatics here, but critics, all waiting for the old master to prove himself one more time. The first note: sharp, staccato, trebly, raunchy in the classiest way. The song was "Know What I Mean," the first song on his new album, Blow By Blow, which is where it's at with Beck: Listening to him is not listening to a song, it's listening to each phrase, as it comes up, blow by blow, each one blowing you away in a different direction, building, until the wind is so intense that it knocks you off your chair. Honestly. I would just be recovering enough to get off the floor and back into my seat when another gust would knock me down again. But sometimes punishment is good for you, and eventually I got the hang of turning my face to the wind and the brilliant light without losing my sight, my hearing or my seat. What I heard and saw Perhaps you've heard Beck's new LP. If you far cry from his last incarnation, namely Beck, Bogart and Appice. That band attempted to be the last word in rock raunch: crashingly loud, in the old trio tradition, distortion, feedback, extended solos, the works. By contrast, Beck's new band is at the other end of the pole. No flashy superstar macho complexes constantly conflicting with each other. Just an attempt to do a number of things in the style called for whether that be a tight, punching, background pattern over which Beck can fly, or a mellow, Roy Buchananesque tone poem in which all the instumental colors must merge and flow together. The set Beck did was easily recognizable. He played his album from beginning to end, with one or two oldies thrown in for good measure. Even though I'd noticed the increase of soul influence on the disc at home, somehow, in translation onto the stage, every number was ten times as funky. The sound was better (clearer, more separation) than it's been at the Century for quite some time, and it seems like Beck has gotten together a band of serious, sane musicians for the first time in his career. Maybe because he didn’t have to deal haven't, I can tell you it's a — Berna Areth const. var la keybc clavin passec equal secun mac winds We've came saw with ridiculous personality clashes, maybe because this music is truly personal, maybe because he's finally grown up, maybe because it was the first date on the tour. Whatever it was, the guy was really on, know what I mean? To say Jeff Beck was on is not to describe any ordinary guitarist on a hot streak. Because Beck's genius does not rely on a sense ot speed, flash or volume, which is where most hot licks seem to come from. Rather, Beck is master of the phrase, more important, of the tone of each individual note. Although there were no vocals, the ability this senstivity to sound gave me itself, and the context in which it is heard the feeling of the word; tapping the strings with both hands, getting all kinds of clicks, clacks and clucks, massaging the fretboard for a moaning vibrato, slicing and cutting for squeals. At one point, at the height of a heavy solo, he was playing this incredibly low, super-distorto tone (it vibrated the whole damn theater), and his fingers seemed to get stuck to the neck: his music, or his soul, was a magnet off to the left; through a curtain of limp black hair his lips reached out to it, and it dragged his body, guitar and all, right across the stage. mi lead when picket you g close, oh Go don't to me — — Eye of the storm balcor Orche: people (for sc costur the bl black white turtlet vocal it and di band (the tl The hurricane raged on.

Bernard Purdie (veteran studio backer for the likes of Aretha, B.B. King and many others) never faltering, constantly keeping the beat with a thousand new variations on each rhythmic phrase, and Beck's keyboards man, Max Middleton, funking it up on the clavinet or soothing it out on the Rhodes, the band passed through reggae, boogie, jazz and space-out with equal finesse. Sometimes we'd be lulled into a sense of false security Beck even started one mellow number sitting in a chair. But before long, he was up again, the trade winds stirring, and by the end of the number ("Cause We've Ended As Lovers"), the storm he had created came back at him, the audience howling and whistling. I saw Purdie turn to Beck smiling and I could read his lips. He was saying, "They love you." — this luse ; finally on the •w what ibe any 's genius volume le from He made me an offer During intermission, I met my friend the cosmic lead guitar player on the balcony.

The stage looked a lot further away from my balconey seat (it was), and when the New Mahavishnu Orchestra came out, it was almost suureal, all those people, clustered in groups, some behind plxiglass walls (for sound separation, I suppose), each one in different costume, representing a different aspect of music. From the black chick saxophonist with the white fur and black sequined and satin pantsuit, to the drummer in white T-shirt, overalls and cap, to the fiddler in a turtleneck and jeans, to the female viola player/soprano vocalist in the pink sari, to McLaughlin, in white linen and demin, transcendent smile intact. It was a ten-piece band altogether, including two horns and three strings (the third was a cello), and as you might expect, the show they put on was in some ways startingly different to me from what Mahavishnu fans have come to expect. Although a few old songs were interspersed throughout the program (like a new, much faster arrangement of "You Know, You Know" from Inner Mounting Flame), the bulk of the set was new material. Although McLaughlin has his roots in "burnt-out jazz" (i.e., Tony Williams Lifetime ) and gutsy, down-toit blues (i.e., Miles Davis' album Jack Johnson), people have come to expect a more "spiritual" sound from Mahavishnu. But this was not the case.

As is the case, with anyone who tries doing something new, McLaughlin's new band was not a complete success. Sometimes the changes didn't make it; sometimes the combinations just didn't mix (tike the atonal string interlude going into the fast funk pattern); but sometimes it was breathtaking.

This almost handicapped him when he made his last important transition to guitar, at the age of 18 or thereabouts. For although the transition proved successful, and Michael was being perceived as a good guitar player, people were still remembering him as a solid bass player.

Well, more often than not, the music at these blown-out affairs was a band called the Cissum Revival, (pronounced Kiss'em Revival). It was comprised of a strange blend of musicians who all had much in common. They wanted to play badly and they all had egos that kept getting in the way. What they lacked in ability and cohesiveness they more than made up for in desire and sheer number. The band consisted more or less of Don Abrams and Gary Brocks on horns, who both recently finished a tour with the O'Jays; Steve Nathan on piano, currently appearing with Barbara St. Clair; Joe Shinta on bass and vocals; Larry Rizzuto on drums; and Michael on guitar. This is worth recounting because it marked the first time Michael appeared with a band as lead guitarist. Well, as they say, the rest is history. For the past year or so Michael and Debbie have been hard at work writing, arranging and performing their original material.

In as much as it centers around anything in particular, Amarcord involves an adolescent, his mother Miranda, and his father a mustachio'ed foreman with a violent temper and an unavoidable pate-mole . . . and a socialist neckband that he's "too rushed" to don when he goes to be questioned by the fascists.

They all have something to do with the epigram, "Winter's death it's spoken at a giant town gives birth to Spring" bonfire when an ancient named "Temperance" barely escapes (or does he?) death and flames with — the straw witch called "Winter." Occasionally, the film jumps around in time; when a "narrator" takes us into the past it's like seeing earlier drawings of the characters in the town. Humor is a consistent element i n Amarcord, but it's not often humor you want to laugh at. Smiles both outward and inward are coupled with emotional malaise to produce the most common reaction to Fellini's peculiar sense of comedy. Topically, the humor ranges very widely, a homely vendor is lured into the bedroom (it looks like a Busby Berkely set) of a luscious harem whose members nod in unison for him to ravish them, a fool faints at a saint's funeral, mass masturbation in — —' A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE — — University Choir The Center for Theatre Research Presents , — Artpark will also be staging, in cooperation with the New York City Opera, The Marriage of Figaro July 31 through August 2, and Tosca August 8 through 10. sale beginning May UUAB Film Coming to the Conference Theater today and tomorrow is Robert Downey's Greaser's Palace. Playing through Sunday is Amarcord directed by Federico Fellini. Amarcord is set in Rimini, a small coastal Italian town, during the later 1930's. Still, it's not so much set there as it sets you there. You actually seem to be somewhere in the cozy town square with its smooth stone walkways, crazy celebrations, and the snow that makes December sequestered. You're there in the spring too, as those celestial, white dandelion puffs float carelessly through the square. Just as you'd grab a puff should it drift past your nose, so you snatch characters, bits of stories, flashes of local color. Most of the characters who eventually become important to the loose story are initially seen in group shots or just standing, strolling, or muttering single lines. A sexy woman with a sense of humor slides around town jammed in a fiery red dress. Her high cheekbones call you to her mouth; it laughs. Walking through town is a stupidly satanic school teacher with a scratchy orange beard be careful. You could cut yourself on it. A frustrated fat boy dreams, and a grizzled old accordian player with black circles for eyes calls another boy a "degenerate." As characters assume importance you remember their earlier, brief appearances because their faces were so vivid in those earlier scenes. Here, Fellini is cartooning a little in order to isolate the people who bear on his story; he chooses actors with particularly expressive faces. It's a technique not very different from using stars (who should have interesting or, at least, recognizable faces anyway) in the key roles except that in Amarcord you feel you know the people from seeing them in earlier shots of the town instead of from seeing them in other movies. It's an effect that is considerably different from that Fellini achieved by using grotesques in some of his past work because in Amarcord, the actors' special facial qualities are more subtle and, happily, more complexly suggestive. The difference is that between a fright mask and rouge. Fellini subdued is Fellini redeemed; the effect assumes a beauty and power A Dustin Hoffman Film Festival will be the featured attraction at the Century Theatre tonight and tomorrow.

In the comic scene where the madman is shouting for a woman up in his tree, it takes a very sure director's hand to avoid making him appear too crazy and the people on the ground (including his family, three doctors, and a stunted nun) appear too sane or, for that matter, to avoid making them seem too ridiculous and him especially rational. Fellini's instincts, here as elsewhere, are good. He views his world and its people with warmth; not patronizingly, "paternally" is better but still not precise. Perhaps "maternally" is best to express the gentleness, sympathy and yes distance in his viewpoint. After watching Amarcord, you want to get out of the dark, tight theater and walk around Rimini to see first-hand the town Fellini has so magically painted. In fact, you want to walk around practically anywhere catching sights and bits of conversation as you go. The-film enriches your perceptions; it makes you want to smile and breathe. What I'm saying, I — — guess, is that it makes you want to live. But before you get on with all that, maybe yes, maybe you will stay and see Fellini's Amarcord just one more time.

This is Wayne movie without some true with specific reference to his latest film Brannigan, currently at the Towne Theater. Within 15 seconds of the start, I knew I was in for trouble John Wayne style. The first glimpse of the film leaves you staring down every possible angle of a shotgun. The music begins fast and brassy as you're waiting for the old cowhand himself to appear. It isn't long until Wayne does appear, in a kind of introduction to the film, to give you a taste of the rough and overconfident super-cop Brannigan. His entrance involves — — appears as the brash and crude American with no taste or style. Soon, a complication develops to keep Brannigan from getting the criminal. He has been kidnapped before Brannigan can even finish his sot and a beer, "an old Polish Brink" as he calls it. The movie progresses as Brannigan works with Scotland Yard to locate the criminal known as Larkin. But even this is too simple to fill a John Wanye movie. Someone hires a killer to take care of Brannigan. It's easy to tell who the hired killer is because bad guys wear dark suits and dark glasses. Blimey! John Wanye runs things his own way, much to the distress of the British. Throughout the film they put down the Americans with snide little remarks, but nothing causes Brannigan to lose faith or confidence. He shows signs of having some brains later, when he discovers how they were tricked with the ransom money. A little action begins when there is a bar-room brawl scene that sets everyone fighting in a chain reaction. It's like any other saloon fight out in the old West, only it's in a London pub and the men wear business suits. Next there is a desperate chase scene that has John Wayne racing through the streets of London in one of the most expensive cars in the world. He even manages the old trick of driving over a rising lift bridge, much to the dismay of the car owner who Changing his Cowboy duds (as in this scene from has been sitting in the seat next to him getting Chisum) for more conventional street clothes doesn't queasy. really matter much to John Wayne in his new movie, Brannigan.

These songs are further undermined by Andersen's practice of using the RECORDS Eric Andersen, Be True To You (Artiste) My first record review. It would seem to me that the critic (?) is as much the subject of a sometimes review as the subject he drowns both subjects; sometimes only his subject. So, I will begin to rain. "They toss around your latest — golden egg Speculation well, who's to know If the next one in the nest Will glitter for them so After three years. Eric Andersen has put together an album that reflects his difficulty in finding the right record label for his type of music. As we all know this is a free market economy that buys the potentially profitable dream printing and pressing between covers experiences transformed to music through the artist's blood language. An artist's success depends on his or her accuracy in creating and venting sounds, words, sensations and rhythms of the common experience or the — preoccupations of others. Success, or the pressures of the business world, have crept into Eric Andersen's lyrics. The songs on Be True to You are uninspired, stripped of the rich images that dressed his earlier work. But there are happily notable exceptions that escape the confines of my criticism: "01' 55,” a righteous, rolling, road song written by Tom Waits; "The Blues Keep Falling," a bluesy Fred Neil inspired, out-of-cocaine song; and "Time Runs Like a Freight Train," which is lyrically very strong. The other songs, on the whole, are of the "I, Heartbreaker" variety in which the lyrics sound women. different names Especially after gallivanting through everchanging affairs in the other songs, a tune like "Moonchild Riversong," with its references to such rock-solid images ("I love you like the mountains"), sinks in a meliferious swamp of comic feeling. So, for me, this album offers some feeling of Andersen's talent, yet its general mood is one of reflecting his empty despair but position well enough musically and lyrically, at least, unable to escape his tiredness into — — irony At his best, Eric Andersen like another autobiographical writer, Joni Mitchell is dream. — "So gather all your shattered mirrors — meticulous in pacing a mood: avoiding the cliche or hollow phrase.

To describe the music, I first have to describe the instruments used. There is a very high degree of (and well deserved) reliance on Darryl Way's electric violin, less on Francis Monkman's guitar and synthesizer and least of all on Philip Kohn's bass and Florian Pilkington-Miksa's percussion. Garnish this with Sonja Kristina's intensely harsh and, at least initially, even American country influences the music and leave within well-enough alone.

After all, the consumer is the and ultimate voter in a product’s election re-election. ... But just how much quality can be built into a given item? How many colors and sizes? How will added quality affect the market price? Read about the route most American businessmen take-'The Main Street” approach. Read what this has to do with 21 million dishwashers and 35 million clothes dryers winning their way into American homes. The adjoining message from the May Reader's Digest sums up important thoughts about quality and value. It’s one in a series on our economic system placed by The Business Roundtable. R adcrs 1 )iircst * E Who Cheers When Products Work? The * H * new toaster was so shiny you could see yourself in it. But its first piece of toast looked like scorched plywood. And you burned your fingers fishing it out when it didn’t pop up. Then the machine heaved a little electronic sigh and stopped toasting altogether. What a storm! And it got worse. Leaving your wife and three kids beneath the shopping-center canopy, you dashed to your new station wagon. Soaked to the skin, you got behind the wheel and turned the key in the ignition. It wouldn’t start. You tried again and aga'in. Nothing. Not a spark. It was a grand dinner. There were even some halfhearted offers to help with the dishes. “No, we bought a new dishwasher,” you announced proudly. You loaded the dishes and joined the company. Uncle Ray was describing his new boat when you noticed the foamy water running across the dining-room floor. Sound familiar? We all remember vividly when things don’t work right. Rut somehow we don't even think about it when our car covers the 2032-milc trip to Canada and back without a hitch, or when the electric coffeepot keeps perking away year after year. There’s just nothing spectacular about the sweeper that sweeps, the oven that bakes, the refrigerator that keeps right on doing its job. No, the fact is that in our minds one malfunctioning product cancels out the thousands that do work. One of the greatest tributes to American industry is the fact that the “lemon” ADVERTISEMENT is news —the fact that bad products are the exceptions that surprise and bother us. The expectations of the American consumer are very high, and the businessman knows it better than anyone else. That’s why he seeks constantly to improve his product and maintain standards. The American Society for Quality Control estimates that .business in this country spends from 8 to 15 cents of every sales dollar to overcome errors, to test, inspect and assure quality. Some examples: On the Tide-detergent production line in Cincinnati, boxes underfilled or damaged in any way arc automatically and literally “kicked” into a reject bin. At the Gillette Company in Boston, every razor blade is ex• • amined for surface imperfections and sharpness. Some employes come to work unshaven each morning to test Gillette (and competitors’) blades under laboratory conditions. At Eli Lilly Corporation in Indianapolis, some pills take as long as 45 days to manufacture. The process is stopped many times for tests of the purity and exact quantity of ingredients. As long as the pills are available on drugstore shelves, a control batch will be tested periodically to ensure potency and safety. At Sears, Roebuck Co. in Chicago, many new products, from air conditioners to shotguns to water pumps, are tested in the field and in • & • Pace twenty . the lab (sometimes to final destruction) before they are ma ketcd. To an alert, competitive company, these efforts are as routine (and as vital) as breathing. “The best sales tool possible,” says one executive, “is a product worth what you pay for it.” But still those negative experiences force their way into our minds. Why can’t we make things more reliable. 5 Why do there have to be any mistakes? To answer such questions, we must measure our expectations as consumers against the realities of the mass market. We must consider what absolute product-perfection would do to prices and volume. Have you ever stopped to think what it would cost to build a television set that would “never” fail or wear out? Many thousands of dollars. And the assembly and inspection procedures would preclude more than a few thousand sets being built each year. Thus, the+iigh quality would be academic for the majority of Americans, who would simply be priced out of the market. Businessmen face a challenge. Do they travel the low road? Cut corners, use the cheapest materials they can get by with? Or do they take the high road —turning out each product by hand, forgetting costs, doing only “custom work” beyond the financial reach of millions of cost-conscious average Americans? Wisely, realistically, American business travels instead a “Main The Spectrum , 2 May 1975 ADVERTISEMENT Street,” where the aim is the best product that can be made at a price the mass of consumers can afford. In shops and factories across the country, engineers, designers, shop foremen hold “product audits,” examining the chain saw or tape recorder or child’s toy before them. With production costs rising, how can they improve the product but keep the price competitive. 3 Will this plastic compound be as strong and as workable as the now-too-costly metal it must replace. 3 Sure, this transistor is cheaper, but will it do the job as well,3 At the Rockwell International Corporation, engineers redesigned a pocket calculator over and over again to cut the cost and time of manufacture while improving the reliability of the machine. The cumulative effect of such activities is a boon to the American consumer, especially during this difficult economic period when all of us want to stretch our dollars as far as possible. For, what good is an improved product if it isn’t readily available to everyone at a reasonable price ? The Main Street approach means that there are 117 million TV sets in U. S. homes, 21 million dishwashers, 35 million clothes dryers —and it means that by and large this abundance of products is an abundance of good products, constantly being improved because of competition. at automobiles, for instance, probably the most complex and sophisticated item the average consumer will ever buy. Today’s cars run much longer between engine tune-ups, oil changes and lubrications than earlier models. Their brakes are much more reliable, their cooling systems require much less Look maintenance. “Consumer pressure” is a healthy affirmation of the market system. After all, what good would consumer demands be in a society without businesses competing in reaction to those demands? But consumer pressure is no new phenomenon; it is rather the same pressure that has always motivated the conscientious businessman —competition. Certainly, consumers have the right to complain, to send things back when they aren’t right. But what really makes American products the greatest bargains in the world today —in both cost and performance—is the fact that all of us constantly cast our votes in the marketplace. It is these consumer “ballots” that shape the quality of the goods we purchase day in and day out. For reprints, write: Reprint Editor, The Reader’s Digest, Pleasanlville, N.Y. 10570.

Prodigal Sun �Stop the slaughter of wolves I am writing to you the latest developments Wolves of Alaska. The organization 1 Wildlife, Friends of the Guest Opinion Let's keep our Of all the various residues of the Watergate Scandal, perhaps the most frightening and dangerous is the emergence of a new mass acceptance of the Establishment communications media in the United States. During the height of American involvement in the Vietnam war, and the concurrent recycling of government propaganda by the mass media, a healthy skepticism has emerged. The strightfaced reports of ridiculously inflated “body counts,” the continual red-baiting of anyone who questioned American aggression, and the rascist editorials urging us to resist the “Yellow Hordes” and countless other daily contradictions, demonstrated the true nature of a communications network controlled by the same interests that controlled the government. It is clear that Richard Nixon did not so much fall from the throne, the throne was simply taken away from him. His foolish and arrogant pursuit of personal power had made him a political liability to his one-time supporters. As a spokesman, a sort of political front man, he was no longer valuable, and the Rockefeller types who had bought and manipulated this bona-fide loser into the presidency dismissed him. This was done in a large part through the use of the very media that Nixon realized was such a threat. It may be that Nixon’s most self-destructive obsession was his hatred of, and desire to control, the media. The clownlike antics and denunciations released through Sprio Agnew were only a tiny part of Nixon’s game plan. Of much greater significance was the constant pressure exerted on the three television networks, the harassment of the Washington Post and other publications, the wooing of conservative heads of independent television stations and implied threats against certain companies and individuals. When it was determined that Nixon was no longer viable as President, the media was used to remove him. Suddenly, a year old burglary that had been downplayed during the elections became front page news, and the public was given an image of reporters risking their jobs and possibly their lives to ferret out what were in reality, newsleaks by “high government officials” like Deep Throat. So the great Watergate “scandal” emerged as a power struggle between members of America’s ruling class. The same new media people who looked the other way while secret bombings were carried out or protected the American people from the truth about the Central Intelligence Agency, were suddenly appalled. Companies like Exxon and ITT paid the bills for “news” programs denouncing the Nixon White House; in the meantime, these same companies were taking record profits at the expense of the American people. The contrived energy crisis continued to gouge the people, the food processing and distribution cartel was busy robbing the consumer at record levels, and the CIA was still cowboying around the world in short, business continued as usual. The game was the same, only one of the players had gotten out of hand. - The danger is that people may come to believe that the termination of Nixon’s control was actually the result of heroic efforts by a band of intrepid news reporters. But it is imperative to remember that these same sots, gossips and voyeurs served the government prescribed visions of Pinko anti-war protestors, Yellow Hordes, Bloodthirsty Arabs, and all the rest. Most recently, they have busied themselves presenting the government version of the Vietnam refugee, interspersed with all the grand things that Exxon, IBM, Shell Oil and ITT are doing to bring joy to the people of the world. After all, these companies pay for the news. And they, at least, get what they pay for.

This seems to be the attitude of a small, but mouthy group of students at this University. Last week this group was justifiably refused the opportunity to ridiculously squander $1300 of our money. Now it appears they’ve borrowed money from a more willing source. Of course, when they took this loan, arrangements were made for it to be repaid out of their pockets, right? Wrong! You know, I know and they know that this debt to Binghamton will end up right back in the laps of those who refused it in the first place. We were fairly represented at last and those responsible should be outwardly supported. I’m sure I speak for a majority at this University who have been silent for too long when I say I’m sick and tired of being screwed out of money I’m forced to pay in the first place. If a rally is what it takes to voice your opinion, then I think it’s about time we, the silent majority, stopped eating all this shit and got together to let ourselves be heard. The only things this past weekend’s protestors wanted were money and senseless trouble. The next time this happens we should keep our money and give them senseless trouble. After all, we can’t deny them everything. Michael A. Gorenflo Undergraduate Student Impeach Ertell To the Editor Well, academic you are a when it well, well, Dr. Ertell, look who’s violating freedom now! The administration of which major part has loudly crowed this doctrine was to the advantage of reactionary viewpoints in the Colleges (notably Social Sciences). However, you and your ilk seem to feel no need to apply it to colleges faculty members who hold divergent views within the regular faculty. With the failure, again, not to reappoint Dr. Lawler, we all become aware that there is no academic freedom for radicals, outside of whatever cocoon they might build within a College, and there is no free speech for Marxists. There is no academic tolerance for Day Care advocates. The patented UB end-of-the-year screw is on again. Day Care is being “offed,” Dr. Lawler is being booted out, Ketter is letting the student government know just how little self-determination students have. “Academic freedom,” which in practice means the right to be orthodox whether or not the unorthodox like it, does not work in reverse. While Dr. George Hochfield, head of the Faculty Senate, Protestors defeat will invoke academic freedom to let a planner of “new towns” teach an ‘objective’ course on the people who pay here, and blast Charlie Haynie for questioning this, academic freedom does not seem to apply to the departments or to the administration. A political science teacher can still start off a course, as one did this year, with the statement that what he termed ‘new left’ views from students were not welcome in his course. This year’s Gelbaum/Quisling, Dr. Ertell, can still fire a Dr. Lawler, without telling him of the supposedly ‘non-political’ (should we laugh?) reasons for his action. One gets the vision of academic freedom being resurrected each fall, gaining strength as a college is under attack from vastly more powerful enemies, and being quietly put into hibernation for the late spring when it would interfere with mass screwings. While one might perhaps hope for a cataclysm that would rid us of the entire administration at one fell swoop, someone should start turning out “Impeach Ertell” buttons by the thousands. It worked once. Mike McGuire own purpose To the Editor I felt the need to write this out of sheer disgust after having read the Monday, April 26 issue of The Spectrum. The actions of a certain small group of students were definitely uncalled for and a deliberate attempt to create a situation, any way they could, which would bring publicity to their cause. Let us examine the actions of this group no doubt there were people in it who sincerely feel the need for support for the Attica inmates on trial, but anyone who believes that there are not certain groups at this University whose sole intent is to disrupt the learning atmosphere, is either terribly naive or just plain ignorant of this. The actions of this group of protestors was aimed at creating a disturbance to provoke the administration to take steps which could only lead to violence. The act of blocking off President Ketter’s office supports this. Had this group acted with one shred of responsibility instead of acting like a bunch of kids throwing a tantrum, perhaps the Ketter administration would have regarded their ideas more seriously. If the leaders of this group had any intention of trying to discuss the matter of mandatory student fees for buses to Albany, they - To the Editor — Randi Schnur Ronnie Selk . . Sparky Altamora . , .Richard Korman Mitchell Regenbogen Eve Fertig mone\) would have gathered the opinions of as many students as possible and presented them in an orderly and respectable manner. Since this was not the case, maybe the whole motivation behind this little scene has been passed over. Again, what possible alternative was left to the administration when students, ignoring the warnings given them, persisted in blocking Pres, Ketter’s office, and refused passage to V. Pres. Somit and Dr. Siggelkow?? Certainly Dr. Ketter could not come out and speak to the group, as I have witnessed him being shouted down by students when he attempted to speak to a group in the Fillmore Room during the controversy over the colleges. This time he offered to address five or six representatives of the group, but it was purposely ignored. Thus, the only solution was to have the students removed by force. In my opinion, this accomplished the objective of a few selfish people, and frustrated the efforts of those who sincerely believed in what they were doing. If The Spectrum does not consider this worth printing, then it has abandoned all attempts to show more than one view of the events that occurred.

I have attended other universities and have been on the staff of other college newspapers. It is my unhappy duty, as the year draws to an end, to conclude that this newspaper is probably the worst that 1 have ever seen on a college campus. I write this letter in the hope that others might also voice their disapproval, if they’re still reading this paper, so that next year’s staff might make sofhe improvements. For my money, a newspaper should, above all else, provide the students with ail of the relevant news on campus. Many days, less than one quarter of this paper seems to be news. There has rarely ever been any publicity given to clubs or organizations on campus, (other than ABLD and CAC). Many students would be stunned to learn how many organizations exist on campus and what they are doing. Alas, up to now, they couldn’t find it here. The campus is filled with lectures and presentations. With the exception of the major speakers that come on campus, The Spectrum never bothers to cover them. There are myraid sports activities on campus. This paper gave more coverage to its “name the bubble contest” than to the intercollegiate sports on campus. Finally, instead of maintaining a distance from SA in the view of responsible, representative journalism as a watchdog of the people, The Spectrum usually reads like it was written in SA offices. If and when The Spectrum finishes covering all of the campus news that may be meaningful to all of the students, then, if there’s soipe extra space, throw in some bullshit. Columns like TGIF, TRB and the other personal byline columns in this paper must be great ego boosts to the writers, but what the hell do I care about a swarm of bees attacking Buffalo in some student’s wacked-out dreams. 1 hope that next year’s staff decides to put out a NEWSpaper, instead of a BULLSHITpaper.

These students, few in number, have been able to assume control of the Student Association Assembly and, there, pass several resolutions friendly to the indicted Attica defendants. They have also been able to influence the elected President of the Student Association to make broad, provacative public statements that are difficult to apply as “of benefit to the student body.” The same almost occurred within the Graduate Student Association, but was halted by peaceful intent. At a university, nothing is beyond the scope of meaningful discussion, but we must not be pretentious that we are listening when our attitude disclaims that. The following should serve as guidelines for how to handle items of discussion: 1) Open debate 2) Listen to arguments for both sides 3) Established forums must be used for the purpose of their constitution only 4) Leader’s must not misrepresent for whom they speak (not to drag in the MFC president without her approval) 5) Enact binding resolutions within the established system 6) Be always aware of the consequences of personal or organizational actions (i.e., legal, moral) 7) Invoking the standard of justice means that “true” justice is the reason for action, not personal adequate representation of graduate students who felt that political issues were not the function of THEIR student government.

During the recent The Graduate Student Employees’ Union (GSEU) recognizes the right of the students to fight for, to secure, and to protect their interests. The Student Association (SA) exercised that right by appropriating funds for a rally in Albany. The Administration arrogantly assumed the power to deny the students’ right. When the students staged a peaceful protest for their right to self-determination, Ketter’s administration reacted with unrestrained violence in an attempt to crush all opposition to its repressive policies. We believe that the administration’s actions arrogating itself‘all powers needs to be checked. And hence, we believe that the student body was totally justified in exercising its right to protest. The last few days have shown that it is the Ketter’s administration, by its actions, which is disrupting the academic life. The actions of the student body, by checking such actions of the administration, only preserves the academic life. Only through such continued activities of an organized student body, can we hope to overcome the movement towards an escalating repression. We demand, that all the civil charges and academic reprisals against the ten arrested students be immediately dropped. that the administration recognize the right of the democratically constituted student governments to decide their own affairs. that a thorough investigation be instituted by SUNY Administration into the repressive activities of the Ketter Administration.

The main thrust is to reuse, not just recycle, bottles. Although their primary goal is not to “ban the can,” the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) and other interested organizations support a mandatory deposit for as many types of beverage containers as possible. Their ultimate goal is a 100 percent return rate on all durable glass. Legislation forcing distributors to accept returnable glass would cause a shift in emphasis from the producers to the distributors. Production of glass would decrease, while the distributors’ load would rise because of extra handling and responsibility. Fifty-two hundred new jobs would be created in New York State, resulting in an increase of 4000 jobs, according to a State Senate task force report. Keith Parsky, head of the NYPIRG bottle legislation, believes that control of the container producers is.essential to end waste of energy and labor in this industry. Although the output of containers would decrease, and Assembly The budget discussions were heated at times; criticisms of the Committee and its Finance recommendations was severe. Assembly member Sam Prince said that Committee “should be censored,” and charged that it’s allocation of $1000 to PODER for transportation was illegal because the Assembly’s funding permit do not guidelines allocations for club trips to “conferences.” Michele Jones defended the two percent of the jobs would be lost, many more would be found in the area of distribution, Mr. Parsky said. Under the present system, only 10 percent of the bottles in New York State are returnable. If the proposed system were adopted, 80-90 percent of beer and soft drink bottles would be reuseable. People would also have more of an incentive to return the bottles if there was a deposit to collect, Mr. Parsky explained. Other proposals would eliminate “flip-tops,” which are eaten by animals and cause injuries. The disappearance of bottle and can waste would reduce the need for landfill areas, saving $18 million yearly. Bottles and cans presently comprise 60 percent of the litter in parks. Reuseable bottles would therefore drastically reduce this type of unsightly waste. Highway cleaning costs would also be cut. Mr. Parsky says the AFL-CIO intends to “fight all the way” any legislation for mandatory returnable bottles. The AFL-CIO argues that such legislation would not only cut jobs and profits, but require $5 million and three years for the transition. However, Mr. Parsky and fellow project head Jan Sadick believe the proposed system will create more jobs at the distribution end. —continued from page They also pointed out that production costs would be lower since one bottle could be used an average of 15 times. New York groups are attempting to model their bottle legislation after a mandatory returnable bottle law now in effect in Oregon. Under this law, metal beverage containers cannot be sold, and distributors may sell only returnable containers and must honor all deposits. The return rate is more than 90 percent. The same Senate task force that noted the iricrease in jobs also concluded that a mandatory deposit on all beer and soft drink containers would save enough energy to run 200 thousand cars yearly, save consumers $40 million annually, and result in an 80 to 90 percent return rate of all such containers. Response to the legislation has been 12 to one in favor of the proposals. Mr. Parsky feels they must use a “quick, hard push” to get the laws passed because the legislative process delays goals that are needed now. On Monday, May 5, Mr. Parsky and Mr. Sadick will debate AFL-CIO representatives on the necessity of reuseable bottles. 2— . committee, identifying PODER as a “special project” organization, not a club.

How could I possibly leave this job without saying a few words about Harry Fritz. He’s a nice guy. I really mean that. If we had had any relationship other than athletic director and student journalist, we’d have gotten along great. We did in fact initiate a course in the now almost defunct bulletin board program. The course. Sports and Society, is now a regular offering of the Physical Education Department, and as such represents my legacy to the University. We didn’t always agree on how the course should be run, but we managed to work it out and, all told, it was a good experience. However, sad to say, the administrator-sports writer relationship has been filled with respectful . There’s one thing I’ve wanted to say all year. But I never had the right opportunity. The quality of The Spectrum journalism is a matter of your own subjective judgment. But this year’s staff is certainly the best looking we’ve had in my four years here. There is not an ugly person on the staff. Some of the beautiful girls (I’m such a sexist) are Amy Dunkin (rats, I promised not to mention her), Willa Basson, Ilene Dube, Janqt Leary, Randi Schnur and Marcia Kaplan. (The ones 1 left out are still going to kill me, but at least I snuck in most of my friends.) Even Gerry McKeen, a little older than most of us, still has a dynamite body. On the male side, several of us (Mike O’Neill, Mitch Regenbogen, Larry Kraftowitz and myself) are merely ruggedly handsome. Sparky, Jay Rich Korman and Joe Esposito lead the cute faction. Photo Editor Kim Santos has a sly debonaire look about him. There are no males on the staff that are anything less than attractive. If you want to see ugly people, go to NYPIRG or SA, places where I used to have friends, until I wrote this. This has been an insane place to work, but I can’t complain. I’ve enjoyed myself. I’ve got to thank the Athletic Department for having some really good teams. It was a good year for most of them. I’ve got to thank the SA, the Administration and good old Dr. Fritz again, for keeping us on our toes. Most of all, I’ve got to thank the newly formed Students for the Future of Athletics, for boosting my ego by calling for my resignation and by picking up the pace just when things were starting to get a little dull. I promised a last will and testament, but 1 don’t think I have anything anyone wants except for my natural charm, which got me this job is the first place. I guess I’ll leave that to my successor, David J. Rubin. I’m not sure he wants it, but he’ll probably need it. Basically, I won’t leave anything to anybody, except a piece of my heart which will stay in this town and this office until it finds a better place. That might be a long, long time.

Before he left, he submitted this first of a two-part series about his experience in Editor’s sun Louisville. by David J. Rubin Staff Writer Spectrum Tomorrow, the first Saturday in May, starts the second hundred of the running of the granddaddy of all horse races, The Kentucky Derby. At 5:35 p.m., following a nostalgic rendition of “My Old Kentucky Home,” 14 horses will spend about two minutes racing a mile and a quarter around Churchill Downs’ dirt track in the 101st “Run for the Roses.” I will be making the 1200 mile round trip to the sleepy southern city of Louisville to see the big race. I will be sweating and baking in the hot Kentucky sun. But I’ll be only one of the well over 100,000 people who annually fill up every hotel room, camping site, and boarding house for miles around. 1 will be standing on line for six hours on Derby morning, but I still won’t see most of the race, because of the thousands standing in the infield. But I don’t care about any of that. Why? Because the Kentucky Derby is more than just a horse race. I’ve never been to a Derby, and I’ve never been that interested in horse racing. But each year when Derby time comes, something draws me to the television set and starts my adrenalin flowing. This year that something is drawing me to Louisville, and there’s nothing I can do about it. I have Derby Fever! years More than a race Yet the race itself is really just a vehicle for all the pageantry and tradition which surrounds it. Louisville makes the Derby an unforgettable event. The natives are friendly, and the city really gets its act together for Derby Day. “Louisville masturbates for 364 days and ejaculates on Derby Day!” according to my friend and Derby companion Bill Rosenthal! I’m not sure what to expect in Kentucky, but I have been thoroughly briefed by Rosenthal and Allan Rosenberg, my other traveling companion. We will be staying in the Red Bam, a temporary housing facility maintained by the University of Louisville just for the Derby. They tell me that somewhere among the 80,000 or so fans who will jam the infield we will bump into someone named Homer, the cattle rancher who probably owns Lubbock, Texas. And I’ve been informed that we will drive past the intersection of 3rd and Winkler, which has the somewhat dubious distinction of being the Main and Hertel of Louisville. But you gotta be there However, I can’t truly experience the feeling of Churchill Downs until I go there. If “Prince Thou Art” or “Bombay Duck” manages to beat my pick, “Foolish Pleasure,” or if a longshot like Cohost wires the field, my weekend won’t suffer because it’s being there and not the outcome that counts. Being there means being a part of one of the greatest sporting events anywhere. The Kentucky Derby attracts more fans than any playoff or championship game in any sport in America. There must be a reason for this and I’m traveling 1200 miles to find it. �V. \mJ\J mmummSmm mm, / mmwmin V. I ...... ..^ Track meet _ TS GET The 23rd State University at Buffalo Invitational Track meet will be held at 12 noon on Saturday, May 3 at Sweet Home High School. Jim McDonough, meet director and coach of track and field, said three open events (mile run, discus and 880 run) have been added to the program this spring. girls 880 (13 and Three age group events under), girls 100 (13 and under), and Boys 440 (9 and under) have also been added. Entry blanks are available now from the meet director at 831-2935 or 648-1129. Edinboro State is the defending champion in the 18-event intercollegiate competition, normally staged at Rotary Field. Other teams contesting for BBCl^ — ac£ scpfarr Exhibits and contests on Amherst Campus This sign was part of a movement to bring back football last fall. That movement, spearheaded by sophomore Pat Lapiana, kind of died out. But John Sullivan and Charles Ciotta got it going again, several weeks ago, and actually brought the proposal before the Student Assembly where it failed by three votes. Recently Sullivan announced there will be a team next fall anyway, sponsored by Carling Brewery. We hate to be skeptical, but it will be best just to wait and see. Heauy weekend Busy baseball Bulls split 2 doubleheaders, win a decision though the Bulls weren’t going to produce any runs at all against Rich Green, the hurler for the It was a heavy weekend for the Bengals Green was a sidewinding baseball Bulls.

After arriving in Buffalo five innings, and the Bengals’ two in the wee hours of Tuesday runs in the second inning looked morning, the Bulls then split like a sizeable enough margin to another paij with Buffalo State, win losing 4-3 in the first, and winning But John Mineo and Frank 5-0 in the second.

Moments later, draw Buffalo to Prezioso slammed a low fast ball an infield hit to one, but Jim Mary was within over the centerfield fence for a at a questionable two-run homer, giving Buffalo a caught looking third strike to end the called 6-2'lead. Buffalo also split the game by John Reiss and Dan Greenbaum doubleheader with crosstown rival, Buffalo State, here on Tuesday. The Bulls dropped the opener by just one run as they outhit state 5 to 4. In the second game, Buffalo switched things around thanks to the shutout pitching of Rich Kobel who struck out nine, didn’t walk a batter, and let up only four scattered singles. In the first game, it looked as dogfight lo the end,” he predicted. In the second contest, Rich Kobel kept the Bengals out of the game and the Bulls won easily. He didn’t allow a hit for the first three innings, and after the first inning, not one Stale player got past first base. Bengals tamed Kobel threw mostly fastballs and used an effective slider to keep State off balance throughout most of the contest. The Bengals didn’t hit either pitch with any authority. “I had to win the second game,” said Kobel. “We just couldn’t lose a twinbill to them.” Kobel also noted that he was totally prepared mentally and physically for the game. It was his first appearance since he received a broken nose against L.S.U. Sunday, May 4 will be Community University Day at the Amherst Campus. The facilities will be open to everyone, and a variety of different events will be held.

Coach Bill Monkarsh didn’t seem very surprised with the first game loss to the Bengals because the team was utterly exhausted. “We’re all tired. We just got into Buffalo from West Virginia at 3 a.m.,” he explained. Before the game, Monkarsh acknowledged that State would play well against the Bulls despite their mediocre reputation. “If we let them know they’re in the game, it’ll be a . 2 May 1975 The Spectrum Page twenty-five . . �CLASSIFIED AD INFORMATION 8:30-4:30. 831-3631.

In the editorial in question, Mr. Geringer called the SBA’s move to allocate funds for the Albany trip tantamount to jumping onto the “bandwagon...into disgrace.” He essentially agreed with the University administration’s view of the situation-that students actually wanted to go to Albany to participate in a planned Attica demonstration and lobbying effort for Assemblyman Arthur Eve’s amnesty bill. However, Mitchell Regenbogen Campus Editor The Law School Student Bar Association (SBA) has begun an investigation of the law student newspaper, the Opinion because of its alleged refusal to print articles opposing the paper’s editorial policy or allow students who disagree with the policy to join the paper. The SBA tabled the Opinion's budget for next year at a general meeting last Friday, pending the results of the inquiry. Dave Geringer, Editor-in-Chief of the Opinion, charged Monday that SBA officials instigated the inquiry because of an editorial in last Thursday’s edition which strongly criticized the SBA’s approval, for “educational reasons,” of a $1300 allocation for busses to Monday's Attica rally and workshops in Albany. Mr. Geringer said the SBA could not cite any specific instances where editorial policy had interfered with the Opinion’s accessibility. But SBA President Rosemary Gerasia said the investigation, which will be completed by an ad hoc committee by May 9, would document the charges. The Opinion is funded by the SBA out of mandatory student activity fees, and is designed to be a forum for the Law School community as well as a student newspaper. In a telephone interview Monday, Ms. Gerasia asserted that the SBA’s action “had nothing to do with the editorial” last Thursday. She explained that the Opinion has previously published editorials criticizing the SBA, and that no action was taken. Without a doubt the Albany Mr. Geringer said expenditure was “an unconstitutional abuse of delegated power, a likely violation of the SUNY guidelines for activity fees, a wasting of common student funds for the political commitments of some, and a foolish tax of SBA’s imperiling exemption.” “To put it bluntly." the editorial stated. “SBA’s actions of last Friday are a disgrace.” It concluded that “concerned students do. however, have a number of options with regard to an SBA which has thrown responsibility to the winds, including the impeachment mechanism and the seeking of activity fee waivers." said the SBA Mr. Geringer the of investigation and tabling next year’s budget was “without a doubt" a reaction to the editorial, probably because the current SBA officers think they are “in for • a year of a lot of criticism.” He cited a provision of the SBA constitution which states that the SBA “shall make no by-law abridging freedom of speech Overblown Mr. Geringer called the charges against him and his paper “vague, dreams, absolutely untrue,” and the result of people “who are mad.” The SBA is trying to get rid of the current staff of the Opinion and “put in people favorable to them.” he said. Ms. Gerasia. on the other hand, termed the issue “totally overblown.” Contrtary to accusations by Mr. Geringer, “no attempt is being made to cut [the Opinion's] budget totally," especially since the SBA “can’t not fund them,” she explained. She emphasized that she has not yet formed an opinion on any of the complaints, describing them as “merely allegations” that the SBA was investigating, “There may be no truth in them whatsoever,” she said. Ms. Gerasia conceded that some of the people who supported the tabling motion also supported the Attica resolution that was heavily criticized in the editorial. She was quick to add, however, that many were not, and that no SBA officer had leveled any charges against the Opinion. She said the real issue was that a “student newspaper funded by syudent fees should be accessible to student input,” and that charges that Mr. Geringer refused -continued on page 4 Philosophy professor fired without an explanation by Rosalie Zuckerman Spectrum Staff Writer Philosophy professor James Lawler will not be rehired when contract expires his in May despite the official endorsement of the Philosophy Department and the of Social Faculty Sciences. His dismissal was ordered last week by Merton Ertell, Vice President for Academic Affairs, give who to refused an explanation for his action. Dr. Lawler was informed of the decision last Wednesday night by a telephone call from Philosophy Department chairman Peter Hare. Dr. Ertell’s decision marks the second time in as many years that not the administration did reappoint Dr. Lawler even though he had the support of his department and Faculty. Last Sping, former Academic Affairs Vice President Bernard Gelbaum announced that he would not renew Dr. Lawler’s two-year contract, but changed his mind and reappointed him for another year after Dr. Hare and Social Sciences Provost Arthur Butler intervened in his behalf. In an interview Monday, Dr. Lawler charged that his political interests, which included support of the Day Care Center, union activities and participation in the College, Social Sciences influenced Dr. Ertell’s decision. “The adminsitration has not even considered the quality of my academic record," he said citing the recent publication of four articles and one book. “This action clearly indicates an unwillingness on the part of the administration to allow any kind of political opposition at any level,” Dr. Lawler asserted. His firing, coupled with President Robert Ketter’s initial suspension of the nine students arrested in Hayes Hall last Friday, “Reflected an adminstrative trend of dealing with people they do not approve of in a most authoritive matter.” believes Lawler his Dr. the “leadership position” in United University Professionals (UUP) was a key factor in Dr. Ertell’s decision because “the adminsitration has always shown animousity to a strong union on campus.” Dr. Lawler explained that the activities strategy UUP’s encouraging united efforts by staff to achieve faculty and input into University greater was in direct decision-making conflict with the administrations all “controlling” policy . of decision making and discouraging University within the unity - — community. The adminsitration is “getting the faculty to quarrel amoungst which themselves” about departments are more deserving of budget cuts “to sow the seeds of disunity within the faculty,” he said. Yeracaris, Constantine sociology of and professor College were directed against the college itself and never affected his opinion of Dr. Lawler. Discouragement Dr. Lawler said the decision made admmstration” placed faculty in an “insecure thereby discouraging “arbitrary by the untenured position” tern from pursuing their political interests. -santos james Lawler president of the local chapter of expressed “extreme the disappointment” over dismissal of his colleague. He said he would investigate whether Dr. the UUP, Lawler’s union affiliation was a prime factor in his firing. The College of Social Sciences has been under constant “attack” from University President President Ketter, who has termed the College as a “monolythic political block” that must be “scrutinized like Ceaser’s wife.” Although Dr. Lawler believes his activities in the college could have also influenced the decision because of its negative image, Dr. Ketter insisted hU attacks on the Dr. Ertell denied that Dr. Lawler’s interests political influenced his decision, stressing that he was not even aware of them. But he refused, under repeated questioning, to state the reasons for Dr. Lawler’s dismissal. It is “not appropriate” to give the reasons. Dr. Ertell said. “We do not do business this way in the academic field.” Dr. Ketter said he was not consulted on the decision and did not know anything about it. He stressed that he would not become involved unless Dr. Lawler appealed the decision. the Faculty and Although endorsements of Departmental Dr. Lawler were sent to Dr. Ertell in February, he was informed of his dismissal only two weeks before the end of the semester, leading him to believe that the administration was deliberately trying to forestall efforts by him to gather support. Dr, Disputing Lawler’s suspicions, Dr. Ertell said the delay was due to his illness and his desire to carefully weigh the matter. Lawler said he was Dr. optimistic that the decision will not stick because “eoung people wll contest it and get Ketler to reverse it.” But both Dr. Hare and Dr Butler, despite recommending reappointment, the last two years, said they were reluctant become involved after the fact, as they did last year. Both maintained that Dr. Ertell’s decision was based on academic rather than political considerations. Dr. Hare did say that he would write a letter to Dr. Ertell asking why Dr. Lawler was dismissed if Dr. Lawler asked him to, but conceded that nothing more could be done if the “people in Hayes his original rejected” Hall recommendation. “1 consider the case settled,” Dr. Butler said adding that he had reservations about recommending Dr. Lawler in the first place because of his academic record. The decision did not come as a surprise, he emphasized. Ertell serious gave “Dr. consideration to Dr. Lawler’s academic record,” Dr. Butler added, but it was not “as strong as other faculty members,” Dr. Hare said that he did not know exactly why Dr. Ertell refused to reappoint Dr. Lawler, but speculated that it was because Dr. Lawler’s articles while highly Marxian and “evaluated by European Contemporary scholars,” were not published in prestigious journals. �SA action Administration condemned for its ‘deceptive’ actions by Laura Bartlett Contributing Editor The Student Assembly approved a resolution Monday condemning President Robert Ketter and the University Administration for “deceptive and immoral actions” regarding the arrest of 10.students in Hayes Hall last week and their subsequent suspension. The resolution charged that the administration denied the students due process by failing to inform them of their right to a “show-cause” hearing before they were temporarily suspended. In other business, the Assembly voted to table the entire Sub Board allocation of $276,000, the Black Student Union (BSU) budget, and most of the individual budgets for SA’s coordinators and directors in the hope that more money can be found after the other budgets have been acted upon. BSU meeting In the case of BSU, however, the tabling was approved at the request of Carol Block, Student Association (SA) treasurer, She explained that she wished to speak with representatives of the BSU to discuss their request before it was discussed by the Assembly. Ms. Block said the meeting was scheduled to take place yesterday. A motion,to cut the Minority Affairs Cultural Events budget by one-half or $2500 was rejected, as was a move to deny SA President Michele Smith a position on the Sub Board Bd. of Directors. Ms. Smith had appointed herself to the position, along with four other students: Bruce Campbell (who was already on Sub Board by virtue of his election as SA Vice President for Sub Board), Abdul Wahaab, Michael Kofler and Frank Jackalone. Ms. Smith defended her self-appointment by citing the need for someone “familiar with the situation” on the Board of Directors while SA fights to keep two positions on the Executive Board. She explained that while SA contributes 80 percent of Sub Board’s funds, it only holds five of the twelve positions on theExecutive Committee. Furthermore, SA has traditionally held two of the three slots into* qn the Executive which rated highly on the survey have had their budgets slashed while others who Board, she said. “Other student governments” which contribute the remaining 20 percent of Sub Board’s funds are now attempting to deny SA one or both of those positions, Ms. Smith asserted. Two votes Ms. Smith promised to step down and appoint someone else to the Board after the issue is settled sometime in May. The Assembly initially voted 18 to II against her, with 6 abstensions, before reconsidering and voting 27-7-10 in her favor. Assembly member Bob Wallace accused the Finance Committee of neglecting the results of SA’s student priority survey, distributed during Spring registration. Mr. Wallace indicated that several organizations received lower ratings received the same or greater level of funding. Commuters especially “have been shafted,” he charged. The Assembly also approved two resolutions presented by David Strong of the Attica Support Group. One was a letter of thanks to the Student Association of the State University at Binghamton for contributing $1000 to the bail of the arrested students. The other was a vote of confidence in the SA Executive Committee for its actions after the arrests and its continued role as spokespersons for the student body. A third motion was withdrawn after it proved two lengthy to vote upon without copies of it being distributed. The resolution was scheduled to be acted upon at yesterday’s meeting.

Ms. Holtzman, who at 33 became the youngest woman ever elected to Congress by defeating longtime incumbant Emanuel Celler in the 1972 Democratic primary, attacked the legislation that would authorize the use of American troops to evacuate Americans from Vietnam. The bill, which has received little opposition, would give President Ford a “blank check” to use military strength in any way he sees fit under the rationale of saving American lives, Ms. Holtztnan emphasized.

The demonstrators also to gathered partly support Assemblyman Arthur Eve’s (D., Buffalo) bill calling for Amnesty for the Attica Brothers, due to be introduced this week. Culmination The rally ended a week of controversy here surrounding the expenditure of mandatory student fees for transportation to Albany. Ten students face expulsion stemming from their arrests in connection with a sit-in in Hayes Hall, where several students and Campus Security officers were slightly injured during an ensuing mellee. Monday’s demonstration was uneventful, with only about ten police officers in attendance. Frank “Big Black” Smith, who faces kidnap and felony murder charges in connection with the death of two inmates, told the demonstrators his version of what took place during the September 1971 prison rebellion. “In that prison yard we dealt with medical changes, we dealt with peaceful changes, until the Formal hearin fs system decided they would get the emasculated prisoners,” he said. “The Attica Brothers are only scapegoats for the ruling class,” Big Black continued. “We must all come together like we did in the prison yard.” ‘Today is the day we talked about in 1971 in that prison yard amnesty,” Big Black declared. “We came to say you can’t go further in history until we deal with Attica; so we can move on to other issues.” A speaker from the Committee for African People urged blacks and whites to come together over Attica. “The system will come down when we fully unite with - the white community and they realize that the structure oppresses them too,” he said. “The struggle is everywhere to the open your eyes contradictions,” he said. coordinated statewide A reaction to the sentencing of John Hill (Dacajewiah), convicted of murder, and Joe Charley Pernasalice, convicted of second degree attempted assault, in connection with the death of Quinn, guard Willaim was discussed by the demonstrators.

Temporary suspensions against three others were sustained. State University Chancellor Ernest Boyer has asked his staff “to look into the facts of the Buffalo situation to determine if there was any overreaction as the students maintain,” according to a SUNY spokesperson. “We still have complete confidence in Dr. Ketter, but these charges should obviously be looked into,” Chancellor Boyer said. All of the students will face expulsion in a hearing before the University Committee on the Maintenance of Public Order May 6. The committee is comprised equally of students, faculty and administrators. Dr. Ketter met with each of the ten students at individual hearings from 7 p.m.-midnight Sunday night, during which time they were required to “show cause” why they should not be banned from campus. Students were allowed to be accompanied by an attorney and their parents. The students were notified of their suspensions Saturday and Sunday. Those who are still temporarily suspended are banned from campus until the hearing May 6. They are: Charles Reitz, charged with criminal mischief, resisting arrest and second-degree assault; Jshmael .<;spi ;ng, mischief, second degree assault and resisting arrest, and Elliott Sharp, charged with trespassing, second degree assault and resisting arrest. Just trespassing The other arrested students are: Paul Ginsberg, with obstruction of charged trespassing, governmental administration and criminal mischief; Paul Mittman, charged with criminal trespass; Alex Van Oss, Gary Gleoa, David Lennett, Jim Hughes and Keith Parsky, all charged with trespass.

My objections to nuclear power are extremely simple and rest on one common sense issue: whether or not the 'miracle' achieved. of nuclear power can be Addressing an audience of about 100 in Diefendorf Hall last Friday night, medical physicist and author John W, Gofman argued that if we generate nuclear power to meet any significant proportion of our energy needs, we create astronomical quantities of radioactive fission products and plutonium-239. Federal agencies such as the National Committee on Radiation Protection and the Atomic Energy Commission have continually laden the public with double-talk designed to minimize fear and protest of the adverse affects of these radioactive toxins, according to Dr. Gofman. When radiation criticism dies down, these agencies announce that exposure is not really as harmful as supposed, he said. When exposure again .becomes an issue, they say that a scientific “fix” can be devised for proper containment. The Price-Anderson Act, which expires in 1977, insures nuclear reactor accidents with limited liability that cannot exceed $560 million. Large utility companies, Dr. Gofman said, were already lobbying for a renewal of this act in 1974 because there is no other way nuclear reactors can be insured. “You can get insurance on a fire, lots of companies are competing for the business, but you can’t get full coverage on a nuclear power plant,” he explained. The alternative to nuclear power seems to be the exploration of solar power, Dr. Gofman noted. A representative of the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG), which sponsored the lecture, distributed petitions to phase out nuclear A miracle Proper containment is the “miracle” to which Dr. Gofman referred. He noted that plutonium, a by-product in the production of nuclear energy, is “perhaps the most toxic element handled in quantity by man.” In a detailed analysis based on fallout statistics from past experimental atomic blasts, he explained that federal standards for radiation control would require “perfection in the order of 99.99 percent containment.” Failure to achieve this unrealistic level of perfection, which discounts the very real possibilities of war, natural disaster, or basic human fallibility, would be hazardous to the human species to a degree the federal agencies are not willing to admit, Dr. Gofman said. Experiments with rats indicate that injection of plutonium particles causes cancer, and that children are more susceptible to cancer from radiation than adults. According to Dr. Gofman’s own figures, one pound of plutonium-239 released into the atmosphere can cause 28 billion lung cancer doses in humans. Nevertheless, he warned, construction of an additional 500-1000 nuclear power plants can be predicted before the year 2000. power plants and develop solar electricity and solar fuels. Dr. Gofman advised that political muscle for the cause is best developed through petitioning. “I don’t think the picture is all bleak for the opposition,” he emphasized. “I want to see the plutonium issue exposed.” Dr. Goftnan’s publications include more than 130 articles and two controversial books on nuclear energy: Population Control Through Nuclear Pollution (1970), and Poisoned Power (1971). �Preparing for the summer Africa Club The Africa Club will host a variety of events Friday, May 2 at 8 p.m., and Saturday, May 3, at 10 p.m.—2 a.tn. in Norton Hall’s Fillmore Room.

Promoting awareness of crime in the dorms The new Student Committee on Dormitory Security will release a pamphlet next week to promote student awareness of crime on and off campus. The fact-finding group, comprised of eight dormitory residents, convened after several meetings concerning crime prevention systems, said Steve Treglia, spokesman for the group. The meetings, attended by Head Residents, Resident Advisors (R.A.) and students, were held in response to a sexual assault in Clement Hall three weeks ago. Proposals “Impractical” Several alternative security systems were discussed and later discarded as "impractical.” One R.A. suggested that the front door to the resident halls should always be locked. However, others felt that students holding the key would probably allow strangers to enter the building. Locking every fire foor was also proposed. Clement Hall residents initially signed petitions supporting this system. But most later regretted signing the documents because they felt it “limited their freedom” to conveniently visit individuals on other floors. The Committee on Dormitory Security is working with Campus Security to reach its short-range goal of informing the University community of crime on campus, said Mr. Treglia. One of five The committee’s pamphlet will advise students on how to prevent theft, muggings, and rape, and make suggestions on what action to take if a crime is committed. One strong precaution is that dorm rooms remained locked at all times. “Security has given us the distinct impression that one out of every five dormitory students is liable to be a victim of crime,” Mr. Treglia said. The committee eventually hopes to establish an effective security system. “Unfortunately, we have not come up with a viable solution to this point,” Mr. Treglia said. He indicated that the group will contact other college campuses to investigate the type, cost, and source of funding of their security systems. Mr. Treglia emphasized that “student input is essential to the development of an effective system.” Those with comments and suggestions should call 831-4158 or 831-3874 or write Box 800 or Box 400, Clement Hall. COLLEGE OF LAW by Howard L. GreenMatt Contributing Editor Final preparations for a comprehensive Summer Orientation Program for incoming freshmen are being made despite some initial setbacks due to the loss of key personnel, according to John Buerk, director of Orientation. Two secretaries who have for years organized many of the administrative details have retired, Mr. Buerk reported, causing a delay in this year’s plans. Mr. Buerk has been in charge of the orientation program for the past six years. Twenty-one hundred students are expected to participate, which is roughly the same as last year, he Food Service will feed the students the same sort of meals that are served in dormitories during the year, Mr. Buerk said. Tentative plans for recreation, films, discussion groups, displays on athletics and music are also envisioned. Tours of the Amherst and Main Street campuses will be conducted during each conference. Mr. Buerk indicated that the Ellicott Complex will be of particular interest, since practically all new freshmen who plan to reside on campus will be placed there. Among the more mundane but necessary plans for the orientation conferences include registration workshops, data form collections and actual course said. The results of a survey taken at last year’s orientation indicate that incoming students were more at ease with the size and social dimensions of the University after attending orientation, and were more realistically informed of the increased academic demands they would face. The survey revealed that orientation calmed the social anxieties which most freshmen have, but “increased their academic anxieties,” Mr. Buerk said. Two day preference Ninety-four percent of the students surveyed preferred at least a two-day orientation program. Two-thirds suggested more student-faculty contact, especially for those who plan pre-medical and pre-dental majors, which accounts for about 25 percent of all new students. In response to these requests, Mr. Buerk said his staff was arranging more contact between students and members of the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics. Plans for the orientation program include twelve separate two and one-half day conferences. The program, which begins June 22 and continues through August 1st, will cost $30 per student. A round-trip ticket to and from New York City on one of the Student Association (SA) chartered buses will cost an additional $32, “a significant saving over flying,” Mr. Buerk said. A day in the life of a typical orientation participant will include meetings with orientation aides, faculty members and academic advisors. Dean of Undergraduate Education Charles Ebert and Student Affairs Vice President Richard Sigglekow will address the new students shortly after their arrival, welcoming them to the University and providing general advice. —Santos John Buerk registration. Freshmen who participate in the orientation program will be permitted to pre-register, and will receive program cards over the summer before arriving at school in September. “This will make things a lot easier,” Mr. Buerk noted. Mr. Buerk said he plans to invite parents to attend the first day of each orientation conference, “since some studies indicate that they need more orientation than their children.” He also indicated that the chief difficulty in coordinating a comprehensive orientation program “is to accommodate the concerns of the many constituencies which are part of a large university.

Hillel President Dolie Roberts and Robin Libow, coordinators of the march, explained that the walkathon was intended to show solidarity with the Jews of the Soviet Union who face religious discrimination but are forbidden to leave the country.

Esposito With .the rejection proposed Equal of the Rights Amendment (ERA) Friday, by the Florida State Senate, the ERA remains four states away from the 38 needed for becoming the 27th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Despite endorsements of the ERA by First Lady Betty Ford and Florida Governor Reubin Askew, Florida became the tenth state to vote against the ERA this year. Approval by 38 states is required by March 1979, seven years after its passage by the Congress. The Florida defeat makes it virtually impossible for the ERA ratified this year. The ERA has three sections. Section I states that “Equality of rights under law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex.” Section II gives Congress the to enforce, by power to be legislation, the provisions of the amendment. Section III requires that the amendment take effect two years after the date of ratification. appropriate welter of misinformation, false and emotional apprehensions City Editor Welter of misinformation Helen Hedrick, Regional Legislative coordinator for the National Organization for Women (NOW) and coordinator for the SUNY Women’s Council at this University, quoted New York Times columnist Tom Wicker, who attributed the recent ERA defeat in North Carolina to “a pressures.” Ms. Hedrick explained that the ERA is as important to women as the amendments which ended slavery were to blacks. “Women are not recognized with equality in the courts,” she noted. However, Ms. Hedrick cited a report from the Citizen’s Advisory Council on the Status of Women (a Presidential Commission established to study the legal implications of the ERA), which states that the ERA “applies only to governmental action; it does not affect private action or the social relationships purely between men and women.” Draft women The Council report argues that traditional state powers and the constitutional right to privacy permit segregation by sex in facilities including public toilets, sleeping quarters at co-ed colleges, prison dormitories, and military barracks. It states that “the ERA will require Congress to treat men and women equally with respect to the draft . . . women, like Once in the service, men, would be assigned to various duties by their commanders, depending on their qualifications needs.” The and the service’s study also quotes a Senate which indicates that the “ERA will result in equal treatment of men and women with respect to the labor laws of the states.” Therefore, restrictive discriminatory labor laws which report women bar certain were passed. the amendment Those laws which offer real protection such as minimum wage and health and safety precautions, would be extended to protect women as well as men Support and alimony The Council also cited a report from the New York City Bar Association which explored the ERA’S effect on support rights and alimony laws. The ERA would bar states from imposing a greater liability on one spouse because of sex, and not require both a husband and a wife to contribute identical amounts of money to a marriage. The support obligation of each spouse would be based on each spouse’s earning power, current resources and CAYAGES PIANO RAGS BY SCOTT JOPLIN from occupations, would be invalid if “nonmonetary contributions to the family welfare.” Upon dissolution of marriage, both spouses would be entitled to fairer treatment on the basis of individual circumstances rather than sex, according to the Bar Association’s report. Thus alimony laws could be drafted that would allow a spouse to make a n on-compensated contribution to the family in the form of domestic tasks and/or child care if he were absent from the labor market for a number of years. N Y. State ERA The New York State ERA, Ms. Hedrick explained, is “essentially the same as the federal proposal.” amending The Constitutional process in New York requires that both of the State houses Legislature pass an amendment iir two successive legislatures before it .can go to a referendum in the election. general The state amendment has been approved twice in the Assembly and once in the Senate. Currently in the Senate Judiciary Committee, the State ERA “could go either way in the Senate,” Ms. Hedrick added. She said a significant conservative element, which has “considerable funds” and is using the slogan “Don’t Tie Us Up,” is working to defeat it. Mrs. Willard Sanscrainte, a local representative of Operation Wake-Up, a statewide coalition of anti-ERA groups, termed the proposed amendment “sex neutral.” Operation Wake Up is seeking to defeat the State ERA —continued on page 12— CLASSICAL SALE PIANO RAGS BY SCOTT JOPLIN VOLUMES I II & JOSHUA RIFKIN, PIANO CAVAGES across from UB Main St, Campus Wednesday, 30 April 1975 . The Spectrum . Page seven �i Editorial Behind closed doorsfire administration's decision Philosophy The to professor James Lawler, without so much as an explanation, is almost a videotape replay of the decision not to reappoint him last year. Although there are many apolitical factors which enter into the questions of tenure and promotion. Academic Affairs Vice President Merton Ertell's absolute refusal to reveal why Dr. Lawler was fired can only fuel speculation that he continues to be harassed for his political beliefs. Dr. Lawler has a long history of association with activist causes. An avowed Marxist, he was one of the Hayes 45 arrested during the 1970 demonstrations and is active in the United University Professionals (UUP), the official bargaining agent for State University of New York (SUNY) faculty. Dr. Lawler has also been an ardent supporter of the Day Care Center, and is on the staff of the Social Sciences College, one of the three colleges that President Robert Ketter asked to be "particularly sensitive to matters of academic freedom" when he released his report on the College Chartering Process in January. Dr. Ertell's remarks that it is "not appropriate" to give his reasons for firing Dr. Lawler because "we do not do business this way in the academic field" does not seem like the kind of statement that would come from an administration that is committed to academic freedom. Perhaps these comments explain why the University has been transformed, in the short space of five years, from an inquiry-filled, experimental house of learning to an almost drab, degree-granting factory. With important decisions always being made behind closed doors under the guise of being "sensitive" matters, the academic community has been excluded from participating systematically in the formulation of University policy. The firing of Dr. Lawler for the second straight year, despite the official endorsements of the Philosophy Department and Faculty of Social Sciences, reduces to fiction the administration's official pronouncements that tenure and reappointment decisions are actually made at the departmental level. Every instructor fired by this University deserves, at the very least, a private, if not public explanation. A more "open" administration would achieve far better results if it moved away from its present, secretive, no-comment method of dealing with people. Dr. Lawler is appealing his termination for the second straight year. If he is not reinstated, we demand a public explanation of why a respected professor who was recommended by every other segment of the University is being dismissed. Closet censorship Another gloomy Monday, and this one placed at the end of a semester, for heavens sake. There are problems 1 assume we all share at this time of year. Basically these would be how the hell do 1 get all the foolish things that I am supposed to have done, done, at least satisfactorily. (The extent to which each of us must perform to be doing so “satisfactorily” seems to be basically an interaction between your faculty and your maker.) This last weekend seemed to be an exercise in futility. There were all the things that I was supposed to do, and there was 1, obsessing about what I should do. Do you have any idea how soon Sunday evening follows Friday afternoon when you have a good talent for procrastination? Yes, I’m sure you do, I know you’re out there somewhere. Procrastinators of the world unite, you have nothing to lose but your incompletes. But then nobody would ever get around to joining such an organization, would they? Perhaps the fact that the weather was semi-decent for a delightful change may have also inhibited any desire to sit for extended periods of time at a gloomy and disgustingly disorganized desk. What sense is there in trying to work when you would have to work for at least 45 minutes getting the surface clear enough to work on? Clearly it makes much more sense ecologically and esthetically to spend the time cleaning the yard of waste paper and the odd beer can contributed by a passing motorist. Which reads a great deal more lucidly than it course. The foregoing narrative leaves out all the self-abuse and recriminations that go on in the process of not doing anything. “Damn, I really ought to be doing blank. Why can’t I get it together to finish x? Brother, how could I have possibly forgotten to do that'}" You realize, of course, that these questions have to do only with the form of such self-interrogation and observation. The actual occurs to content has been drastically changed to protect The Spectrum’s good name as a family magazine. An example of how I beat myself up is the current crisis on yea, this very campus over the money to go to Albany. In my own insular way I never know nothing about anything until light years after the fact. In this particular case I was driving home in the trusty, rusty, bug listening to the news when I hear that there has been a hassle in Hayes Hall. Which, having very recently seen the movie about I.F. Stone, tells me nothing. News, to him, is something that you put on between the ads and the commercials. Multiply that by the average bias factor in most of the local news media and you know nothing except that something probably happened. Lord knows exactly what the hell that something was. .

Wednesday, 30 April 1975 . virtually impossible” syndrome. 1 am not close enough to anybody in any government anywhere to have to be is | f|p I m reminded that what we have in there somewhere are human beings. Which is relaxing in certain kinds of ways. If they Steese are just talking to each other and it does not immediately involve me, then I don't have to listen to that particular dialogue and I can waste much time being paranoid about something else. For example, I can monitor news for Washington with one ear and eye, until they start talking about making it mandatory for all of us to have national identification cards. At that point the hair on the back of my,necks starts to rise and I start writing more checks to Common Cause and the American Civil Liberties Union. Or until they start talking about Hathaway as Secretary of the Interior So for most of this problem I was not involved It looks rather like two branches of government having a power struggle. Which are usually something that can be solved by a little creative compromising before anyone gets hurt. Unfortunately, this does not seem to be one of those times that it was gotten together soon enough. When you think about all the people who have gotten hurt in world history for somebody else’s principles, it is rather frightening Happy last week. Take care.

Undoubtedly, some people feel excessive force SBA officers have made vague accusations, with the was utilized by security officers. However, just as many people feel that the security officers showed meager assurance that the investigation will turn up specifics. remarkable restraint in a very tense situation. 1 was Regardless of what they claim, it is difficult to overlook the not there, so I will not discuss that aspect of the fact that the inquiry began one day after Dave Geringer, problem further.

What I protest is the government, through that the Opinion should be open to students, since it is your office, refusing to allow these citizens to exercise their basic constitutional rights. Didn’t some funded by mandatory fees. But it is important that it famous American once say: “1 may not agree with become aware of the fine line separating forced "openness" what you say, but I will defend to the death your from infringment on editorial policy and outright right to say it?” In my opinion, the basic question is whether censorship. While Mr. Geringer should realize that printing students, just because they are students, are to be opposing viewpoints is the normal procedure for any deprived of certain rights which are supposed to be newspaper, no government, student or otherwise, has the guaranteed to every citizen of our country. If students are systematically deprived of these rights right to force any printed material to appear.

Perhaps Constitutional layv should be a required Polish-Americans, Jews, or Italian-Americans; but course for all SBA officers, since they seem to have once the first step is taken, the rest follow easily. We overlooked their own constitution, which specifically must prevent that first step.

It has just gone into the closet along with all those other skeletons that occasionally go bump in the night . . scaring us half to death in the process. End of parenthetical digression). Other than a brief paranoid flash that 1 should cover up my UB sticker in a National Guard armored personnel carrier went by, I started to get down on myself again. How come I didn’t know that something had happened, why wasn’t I more together, what the hell was going on? All of which may, and indeed, should, sound familiar. It is exactly the way I beat myself up for everything else, as outlined earlier on in this mess. What made me even more anxious was realizing that on that day, at that particular time, I did not care what had happened at Hayes. I wanted to go home and bury my head in my own private sand pile. There are rationalizations, of course, of course I have rationalizations for just about anything and at very short order. In this case it amounted to a plague on everybody’s house. Which is closely coneected to the “all governments are to be treated with suspicion verging on paranoia until proved otherwise and that Amendment to the Constitution of the United States) (Emphasis added) 2. . . aVo Stale shall make or enforce any law (1st which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law .

When you refused to allow an expenditure of students’ money, allocated by the students’ the legal representatives, Student Association, you showed our nation that these rights are worth exactly $1300. To justify your action by saying it would have been spent for political purposes is stretching common sense a bit out of shape. Spent to correct . . what some citizens regard as a social and legal injustice, yes; but not spent for political purposes. On the contrary, your actions have a decidedly political taste to them. I defy you to name one, just one, politician who would get a penny of those monies. The students wanted to legally hire buses to travel to their state capital to petition their government. When our University system arbitrarily violates the supreme law of the land, just how in the world do you expect the young people to appreciate the sanctity of that law. As the U.S. Supreme Court said in Mapp V. Ohio, 367 U.S. 634 (1961). “Nothing can destroy a government more quickly than its failure to observe its own laws.” 1 call upon you to change your decision concerning these expenditures. Remember, the failure to correct a mistake is, in itself, another mistake. In view of the tragic events of the recent national political past, the fewer mistakes we allow to go uncorrected, the greater the chances of our government surviving in tact. Thank you for your consideration. I remain. Louis A Starr President Student Association, ECCN �Self-defeating violence Correction To the Editor. To the Editor choose The Guest Opinion column in Monday’s The Spectrum attributed to me was released without my attributed to me. Our campus activists must be commended for consistency and for their exquisite sense of timing. Perhaps these virtues exist because they “have no leaders” as the Attica Support Group in Hayes HalLsaid last Friday. A month ago, the Revolutionary Student Brigade distributed a plea, written by Professor Lawler, for students and Faculty to write to their representatives at Albany, asking for restoration of the cuts in the University budget. Now, the Attica Support Group have persuaded the Student Association to appropriate $1300 of student fees to support their trip to Albany to demonstrate. And they have given, by their actions Friday, a portent of what they might do, there. As this is written, we do not know what will happen Monday at Albany; but we certainly hope that they will refrain from self-defeating violence. The timing of the demonstration and occupation at Buffalo, and the planned expedition to Albany, are simply superb because the Legislature is considering the University’s requests for restoration of the cuts from our budget! Surely our activists know that the riots of 1970 were a major contributor to the success of the budget-cutters, in recruiting undecided legislators and legislators who are hostile to public Universities, to accomplish the deletion of funds. Surely they know that the lines for stipends of graduate students can be eliminated by law, and that there are legislators who would like to do just that. There are rumors that the private universities of this state would be very happy to accept funds that are taken away from us. but nostalgia for the Nostalgia is all right "golden age” when the University was growing, with the aid of ever-increasing funding from Albany, is slightly futile in 1975. But it is totally futile if it is combined with nostalgia for the intoxicating days of 1970, when we all had so much fun rioting and and in Santa Barbara, California burning banks libraries, as we did with the Spanish collection, here Which do we wish to bring back, the time when the University was growing, and when there was an intellectual ferment on campus? Or the time when the University was in a state of violent and self-destructive disruption? The Revolutionary Student Bfigade could save itself a lot of trouble, just be sending a delegation to the Legislature, to tell them that we at Buffalo do not want to be corrupted by their money. their - to sign that statement as I was not in complete agreement with it, nor do I wish it to be actions Any statement coming from me, personally or on behalf of the MFCSA, will be delivered to The Spectrum and signed by me.

Your answer should run something like this: Well, windows were broken; the police came on arrested; were the students campus; Administration, Faculty and Students got oh yes U.B. became known as uptight; and the “Berkeley of the East.” Now, if you would, please sit back and ask yourself this: What did the sit-in demonstration that the Attica supporters had at Hayes Hall on Friday accomplish? Your answer: Well, windows were broken; police came on campus; students were arrested; the Administration, Faculty, and Students got oh yes U.B. was reaffirmed as uptight; and the “Berkeley of the East.” Now. for every answer to the first question that is similar to an answer to the second question, please kick yourself one time. Congratulations! You can now proudly stand up and say that you have been the “first” to learn from the mistakes of attempting to communicate through emotional shouting-matches rather than by persuasion and a well-planned course of action. Yes. you can now understand that the which phrase “a failure to communicate” everyone believed went out of style with the “generation gap" and Marshal McLuhan succinctly describes what happened on Friday Both the Administration and the students because of the emotionalism and mistrust surrounding the demonstration in Hayes overreacted to a situation that could have been averted if calmer heads would have prevailed. In retrospect, it seems that both sides were culpable to some degree of causing the violence that ensued. This statement is true of most situations where both sides circumvent their available channels of communication and decide to take events into their own hands. Thus, thinking logically for a minute, can demonstration really be described as “peaceful’' where the participants take over any area, refuse people to leave, verbally harass them and refuse to communicate with the other side? In the same context, is not one “overreacting” when one calls outside coercive police forces to quell a situation where one has not communicated with the other side? Clearly, both sides are not lily white. Similarly and a fact which has been overlooked both sides are culpable of committing a grevious offense against the vast majority of the University community that wisely sat and watched the events run their course. Unfortunately, the time for those of us who have remained uninvolved with the issues in conflict last Firday has drawn to an end. The reason for this is a series of pragmatic considerations that none of us can close our eyes to: First, the fact that ten students were arrested in the milieu. Although seven-to-eight of these students have been permitted to continue their education this semester, the University charges against these students for trespassing have not been dropped. Needless to say, unless a highly competent system of justice is employed to get the facts surrounding the charges against these students, they will be marked as deviant troublemakers, when those charges in fact may be unjustified. Thus, there is a humanitarian aspect to the considerations all of us must make. Secondly, we must all take a close look at the many accusations that have been made by 3 — - - - - Robert J Good - Professor - Watch out for landlords To the Editor. week, I attended a very enlightening workshop on leasing off-campus housing, run by the legal-aid clinic.

Republication of any matter herein without the express consent of the Editor-in-Chief is strictly forbidden. Editorial Policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief - - a few of which you many different groups to probably read in Monday’s The Spectrum describe what took place on Friday. These accusations were forceful words as “barbaric, incompetent, tyrannical,” and “resignation” as ploys to ignite the majority of people who innocently observed on the periphery of the conflict. They implore us to take emotional recriminatory actions blindly without considering any of the implications involved. And yet, none of these accusations have been authentically verified by any investigative committee that will objectively assess the facts of the situation. Thus, those of us uninformed about what actually took place will run the risk of identifying with one side in the conflict without knowing the facts. And it’s exactly this type of situation which the perpetrates misunderstandings and increases the possibilities of another violent outbreak occurring. And who think it in their right minds would sincerely “cool” and “heavy” to have another April 25th incident? Only those unthinking dilettantes who revel in calling U.B. the “Berkeley of the East” and the “hotbed of student activism.” Well, we submit to you, “Why the hell should we be the Berkeley of the East?” The answer should become clearer to all of us. We must all begin to see through the heavy curtain of emotionalism which surrounds the issues and attempt to put both conflicting sides in perspective. Once this is done, the tougher task is before all of us; namely, to levy pressure on both the Administration and the students who were involved in the incident to cease the highly explosive rhetoric that has done nothing more than accuse the other for what happened. This “pressure” implies that we must demand from all sides to be “open” in their accounts of the altercation, to the entire University community. Both sides must present us with a factual account of what they saw occurring on the day in question. Furthermore, it would be wise for all of us to request that a mechanism of sorts in the form of a University-wide committee be established to investigate the facts. Perhaps in this way we can get to the crux of the issues at hand and determine if “Attica is all of us” or if “Attica is None of us” or whether our mandatory student fees are ours “to play with” or are ours “to play with, with certain restrictions.” Most importantly, our actions in attempting to achieve this perspective may bring a greater degree of justice to the ten students whose very careers are on the line for something they may not be guilty of committing. If all of us do not take these steps necessary to clear the air of the mistrust and resentment running high between the Administration and students involved, then we all may be considered accomplises to the act that occurred on Friday. Indeed, we may be setting ourselves up for a similar occurrence in the days ahead. For, we all would be guilty of not communicating our beliefs to develop a deeper perspective of things. And when we refuse to learn from our mistakes we permit the divisive effects of factionalism and recriminations to control the University’s pulse. And when these twin purveyors of doom are permitted to run rampant, the University as an “educational institution providing an open forum for all peoples,” will die. All of our rights will be abrogated because of our refusal to act. Thus, let us make all sides the Attica supporters, the Administration, the Student Association, The Faculty, and Security responsible to all of us for an explanation of what actually occurred. Then, individually, we can each make an assessment of the situation. Let’s stop kicking ourselves and learn from our mistakes. If we don’t, well get a sore ass and very little “education.” After all, isn’t “education” what we’re here for? — - — — — — - — Wednesday, 30 April 1975 . The Spectrum . Page nine �Outside Deplore violence To the Editor. by Clem Colucci I want to publicly state, for what it’s worth, my support of the students’ rights in the incidents surrounding the demonstrations. There has not been equal justice on Attica. The students did have a definite right for the SA allocation, since the precedent had already been established. The students had a right to protest and demonstrate. However, the students had no right to do any violence. Even if President Ketter and Campus Security over-reacted, the students had no right to do bodily harm to Security officers, especially stabbing with an ice pick! Security should be praised for using discretion and acting with restraint in a situation they probably should never have been called to. The students also did not have a right to tear down the material of the Royal Circus and destroy an SA funded function that many on this campus wanted to see and had a definite right to see. 1 support the movement to get equal justice in the Attica case, but 1 deplore the violent action which causes hatred, more violence, and looses support for an extremely important cause! Spoiled Attica crybabies To the Editor It seems to me that the SA has done it-again. First, they vote that the whole student body supports the “Attica Brothers” and now they want to have buses to go to Attica to prove their stupidity. The SA in SUNY at Binghamton is just as dumb for giving money away to a foolish cause. Mobs, like the one outside of Hayes on Friday, April 25, don’t mean a damn thing; except that when a group of acsholes get together they can fart harmoniously. Ketter took the right actions except for a few — — things: 1. This is a University, a place to learn, not a nursery school. If these “spoiled Attica crybabies” want to complain, tell them to bitch to "Mommy and Daddy.” I would have expelled or suspended the whole lot of “students” after the warning. 2. If that didn’t work I’d bust heads like many of these crybabies’ parents should have 3. If these people still persisted I would have chartered the buses to Attica and left the goddamn idiots there for a week or two so they will have something to bitch about. 4. Since the whole thing is a joke, why won’t the SA charter me a couple of tickets and a bus to Montreal for the Sabres-Canadians Series. Mike LoVullo Misguided benevolence To the Editor. I refer to an article appearing in the April 11, 1975 issue of The Spectrum written by Mr. Andrew Sacks, “New GSA Fights Cutbacks.” The contents of this referenced article, to the Educational Opportunity Program, if an accurate reporting of the views and assessments of Mr. Perry DiFilippo, President of the Graduate Student Association finds him in error on several counts and 1 would like to set the record straight on two of them. Mr. DiFilippo is quoted as saying, “sometimes, they (EOP) give credit for free.” What he means by “credit for free” is unclear, but the EOP is not a subunit of a credit granting entity (i.e., faculty or college) and therefore offers no courses for credit. Where EOP students are enrolled for credit, they are expected to earn them in accordance with the course requirements. Moreover, nothing within the policy structure of EOP nor current implementations of said policy structure requests, implies or promotes “special treatment at the expense of education” for either its minority or non-minority students. We appreciate the interest Mr. DiFilippo has expressed in the welfare of the undergraduate based EOP. Moreover, his announced concern is even more admirable when one observes the insistent and complex problems at the graduate level, not the least of which is the less than equitable numbers of minority graduate students and TA’s at this and other institutions in the State and GSA itself. So if he wishes to leave a building in need of housecleaning to apply his wisdom to the correction of our malaise, we suggest he be guided by the kind of truths available upon consultation with us rather than trust a vision garnered through a refractory medium from a distant “I know what’s good for you people” perch. “She knew?” “She caught me.” “Oh.” “She didn’t enjoy it at all.

The only other possibility is my cousin Supergirl, but I don’t find incest appealing.” “Does she have similar problems?” “She did.

Let me tell you about the time she and Krypto . . .” “I don’t think I want to hear.” Superman gazed out the window for awhile, then turned to me. ‘i’ll never forgive Jimmy Olsen.” “Why? What did he do?” “Back when we were on the Daily Planet together, I took him under my wing and taught him the reporter’s trade the way Perry White taught me. Then the backstabbing sonofabitch took the city desk when I was in line for it.” “What will you do now?” “1 have my job at WGBS for two more years then it’s madatory retirement. I’ll write my memoirs afterwards.” “Whose, Clark Kent’s or Superman’s?” “Both. Then I’ll reveal my secret identity and both sets will sell out. The royalties should be enough to buy a piece of beach property in Florida. Then I’ll be endorsing products. I just signed a contract for a leotard company.” “Leotards?” “Sure. I’ve worn them since well, however long it’s been. And if Joe Namath can endorse panty hose I can endorse leotards.” “1 guess no one will dare laugh.” “We’re here, gentlemen,” the driver said. I walked Superman through the lobby of the Metropolis Hilton under everyone’s stares and led him into the main ballroom. Superman entered to a thundering round of applause from his associates. Batman, nearing retirement himself, shook his hand. His old enemy Braniac was blubbering like a child, Lois gave him a kiss on the cheek. Superman’s eyes started to water. I couldn’t stay any longer and turned away. As 1 left, Superman shook my hand. It hurt all week. . — Alternative proposals To the Editor 1 have been a member of the Student Assembly for two Administrations (soon to be three) and I would like propositions to suggest alternatives to some other students have had published in The Spectrum. First, mandatory fees. 1 feel that a system by which students earmark parts of their fees for certain areas might run into serious distortions. Part of my decision lies with how much you are allocating relative to how much I think that club or activity should have; therefore, if everyone were omniscient the system would work fine. We are not all knowing and so I suggest instead a comprehensive surveying technique which could provide a relevant guideline Stay at the ‘Beef To the Editor. Upon reading Wila Bassen’s critique of the Muldaur-Anderson concert, we realized that the ability to be both melodious and meaningful is no longer a respected art.

EOF In out I was impotent for a “That’s too bad.” “It was never easy being Superman,” the Man ofSteel sighed. I watched him pull in his stomach as he stood before the mirror. He could not hide the roll of inevitable age-flab covering those abdomible muscles that once stood out like granite blocks through his tunic. The four decades of fighting for Turth, Justice and the American Way had taken their toll. Superman was going to retire. “Hand my my cape, would you please?” Silently, I took the cape with the famous red S from the closet. It was frayed around the edges and I couldn’t look into Superman’s eyes as he took it. He had been my idol for years, and now it was over. He brushed his hair, the deep blue streaked with grey, trying in vain to cover the spreading bald spot at the crown of his head. He sighed again, set the brush down on the dresser, and put the cape over his powerful shoulders. “Let’s go, Clem.” We left the apratment and walked to the elevator. It was slow and Superman was getting impatient. He forced his hands between the doors and tugged. They wouldn’t budge. He took a deep breath and tugged again. The doors flew apart and he grabbed the elevator cables, pulling on them until the elevator reached our floor. “In the old days, 'ythat wouldn’t have happened,’’ he said. \ We stepped into the elevator and rode down. At the ground level, a Itfnousine sent by millionaire Bruce Wayne secretly Batman, waited.

And LBJ wanted to use me when he stopped bombing North Vietnam." “Did Nixon ever ask you to do anything?” “You wouldn’t want to know.” “You’re probably right.” “A lot of people envy me.” Superman said wistfully, “but if they knew the problems these powers of mine cause me . . .” “Such as?” “My sex life, for one thing.

Shari Lewis �Interest in nostalgia brings back old college yearbooks After a decline in the (CPS) ’60s and early ’70s, college late yearbooks appear to be making a bigger and better comeback before, ever according to than yearbook publishers. many “Yearbooks for a while were pretty much status quo, then many schools dropped yearbooks entirely,” said Carl Peterson, a from Western representative Publishing. “Now we find many schools are bringing the yearbook back again. I think the yearbook is becoming more traditional again,” he claimed. One example is Loyola University in Chicago which discontinued the Loyolan in 1972 after the yearbook was plagued by financial and managerial problems. - - Several publishing representatives pointed to an increase in nostalgia as a prime reason for the resurgence of college yearbooks. “I think there is a return to a nostalgia-type thing among the young people in the nation,” suggested Paul Coram of Pischel Yearbooks. “Yearbooks have a definite place in the school life of the average student and they’re interested in acquiring one for their own personal use.” Jim Hunter, president of Hunter Yearbooks, agreed there is a trend back to yearbooks.

And at Ohio State University, interest was high enough that one Tower, Lincoln dormitory, decided to produce its own yearbook in addition to the university’s. Nearly 350 of the dorm’s 585 residents have subscribed to the proposed book. There has been no apparent surge of interest in the yearbook at the State University at Buffalo, however, according to Clem Colucci, Editor of the Colucci Mr. Buffalonian. attributed this to the less than adequate paperback volume of the 1973 Buffalonian. “We had a bad year in 1973, and after that, we had trouble getting money,” he said. Since that time, Sub-Board 1 Inc., which finances the yearbook, “didn’t want to take the risk and I can’t them,” blame Mr. Colucci maintained. He considers color photos and other special feature ludicrous since the Buffalonian cannot afford the expense. “The yearbook is surviving and that’s about it,” he declared. .

Polygraphs and jobs A job-desperate graduate completes his application form (he’s more than qualified), is interviewed by the personnel manager (they grew up in the same state), and is confident he is about to be hired. “One more thing.” “Yes?” “We want you to take a polygraph test. It’s voluntary of course, but if you refuse. I’m afraid we can’t hire you.” Should the applicant submit in order to be hired or should he refuse on the grounds that a “lie detector” test is degrading and dehumanizing, an abuse of his right to privacy? This dilemma is faced daily by hundreds of potential employees and has become a growing concern to civil libertarians. No recourse There are currently only 13 states which have laws limiting or banning use of the polygraph for employment purposes. These are Alaska, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Washington. In all other states an applicant has no legal recourse if he is not hired because he refuses to submit to a polygraph test. According to The Privacy Project a newsletter published by the American Civil Liberties Union Foundation, there are serious functional and ethical problems with lie detector testing , have been convicted 2) Submission to a polygraph test is not voluntary, either in screening or later when an employee suspected of theft is fired for refusing to take a test. The conclusion that it is mandatory raises constitutional arguments involving violations of due process and the right of privacy. 3) The common practice of keeping a file of polygraph tests results invites the compilation of company black lists and the establishment of polygraph “banks.” 4) The polygrapher hired by an employer has a strong incentive to be overly selective to insure that his client will be satisfied with the employee. Most employers rely totally upon the polygrapher’s recommendation. A 1974 Senate subcommittee on constitutional rights found that most polygraph licensing requirements were insufficient and generally criticized existing laws for evading the real issues. The subcommittee concluded that “expediency is not a valid reason for pitting individuals against a degrading machine and process that pries into their inner thoughts. Limits, beyond which invasions of privacy will not be tolerated, must be established.” incompetent. in the Senate and rescind New York’s approval of the federal ERA.

The women athletes haven’t been recruited for two sports, and they aren’t participating in one sport merely as a sideline to their specialty. For the most part, those who take part in sports do so for their enjoyment, well being, and education. Nan Harvey, a physical education major who plays on the volleyball and basketball teams, views athletics as part of her education. “Sports are like a lab to me,” she commented. “I’m preparing for the future by learning what kinds of things to consider in teaching.” According to Harvey, most women “for fun and conditioning.” participate in sports From player to coach Cindy Palczynski, a field hockey and basketball player, has coaching aspirations, and therefore thinks of the future when she takes part in sports. “Sports is going to be my occupation for the rest of my life p tm wm mt COUPON mm MEAT TACOS-buy 3 get 1 FREE ■ | Reg.

Women more versatile Most of the two sport women gave different reasons why there are more two sport women than two sport men. “Girls are just waking up to sports, and when a girl discovers it, she goes all out at first and joins more than one sport,” observed Dolan. “Women are just starting to train, and don’t quite have the competitiveness that men have,” said Dellwardt. Some of the women mentioned scholarships to explain why most male athletes specialize in one area. “The guys are expected to be proficient in one game,” commented Palczynski. Does devoting so much time to sports hurt their marks? “No,” Dellwardt replied. “You have to work a lot harder, though.” She added that the comparative smallness of the women’s schedules makes it easier for them to double up.

He said that Charles Reitz, one of the arrested students, wrapped a shard of glass in newspaper and slashed an office on the wrist before being subdued. But most eyewitnesses in the lobby maintain that the glass was originally broken by the Campus Security officers stationed inside, and that Mr. Reitz was not near enough to have broken the glass.

Dr. Siggelkow stuck by the earlier decision and recommended that the allocation be blocked. “The new material changed the wording but did not convince me that the intent had been altered,” he said. Dr. Ketter then urged everyone “to bring out all possible facts,” so he would have the complete case before making his decision.

The Binghamton Student of the Student Association; those must be exceeding $1,000 Association and the SUNY-wide Faculty-Senate have also called for investigations of the arrests and suspension of ten students here. In a related development, the Binghamton administration approved an expenditure of more than $600 of mandatory fee monies to transport students to the Albany activities. The buses will also be stopping at the State University College at Oneonta. statement a released In Saturday (see pages six and the Binghamton seven), SA requested that a committee of representatives University at from the State Buffalo’s Student Association, Faculty-Senate Professional and Staff Senate be formed to “conduct a thorough investigation of the actions of the administration and of any other culpable parties involved in the recent disturbances.” Drop charges It also asked that all charges, both academic and criminal, be dropped against every student participated who the in demonstration. Additionally, the Binghamton student government demanded that the $1300 allocated by SA for buses to transport students to today’s rally and workshops in Albany “for educational purposes” immediately be approved by University President Robert Ketter. In a separate statement, the SUNY-wide Faculty-Senate called for a similar investigation by the same bodies to determine whether unwarranted force was used by of the parties involved, any reasonable efforts were made to avoid conflict, basic constitutional rights were violated, and if there was “inappropriate use of academic penalties.” The funds for the Binghamton loan will be taken from a $30,000 bank account of non-mandatory fee monies .that the SA there accumulated several years ago from voluntary contributions before there was a mandatory fee. Voluntary funds Apparently, the school’s student government had at one time solicited money from the finance body student construction of a tavern adjacent to the campus, since the school did not have a liquor license. When the University eventually a procured license and the fee mandatory system was adopted, the funds that were collected were put into a special account for “political purposes,” according to one spokesman. The funds, which now total about $30,000 because of the interest has that sizeable accumulated, can be allocated student government. Expenditures of less than $1,000 can be approved by a vote approved by a referendum of the student body. According to the terms of the loan, the Attica Support Group has five years to pay the money back, at no interest. The group plans to raise the money through an fund-raising intensive campaign. Students protest requests Both for an investigation were spearheaded by a protest Friday evening on the Binghamton campus by about 300 students, who paraded into a between the meeting Faculty-Senate and Chancellor Boyer after receiving word about the arrests of 10 persons here from SA President Michele Smith and representatives of the Attica Support Group. According to Bill Gordon, student government President at Binghamton, the students walked into the dining hall where the conference was taking place, planted themselves along the periphery of the room and demanded that the Chancellor make a statement abcwt the Buffalo arrests. Mr, Gordon said the Chancellor agreed to allow him and another student to address the faculty with a list of demands. After they finished speaking, Dr. Boyer told the students that he would meet with them immediately after his meeting with the faculty ended. But the students refused to leave until Dr. Boyer “started some positive answers our demands,” Mr. Gordon said. He indicated that the Chancellor finally acquiesced and answering to cancelled his activities for the rest of the evening All the facts After relating to Dr, Boyer what had happened on the Buffalo campus, he reportedly replied that he could not make a decision on their demands without knowing all the facts. Mr. Gordon said that when the students asked to him immediately telephone Dr. Ketter, he refused, stating that he preferred to explore the situation in a calm, deliberative manner. “By saying here that 1 would go to Buffalo, I would be lowering my integrity,” the Chancellor was quoted as saying. Mr. Gordon said the meeting with Dr. Boyer lasted from 9:15 to about I 1 00 and became tense at one point when a few of the students grew impatient and became critical of the Chancellor. The the day, following students met with the Executive Committee of the SUNY-wide Faculty-Senate, whitfh agreed to present the resolution asking for the investigation to the voting membership. The full membership passed the motion a few hours later. Charles Reitz, age 29, one of the ten University students arrested at the demonstration Friday, struggles with Campus Security officers outside Hayes Hall. Mr. Reitz, who was later charged with criminal mischief, resisting arrest, and assault, was released on $1000 security. All ten students were suspended by President Ketter Saturday.

The demonstration was sponsored by the Jewish Student Union (JSU), Black Student Union (BSU), and the Jewish Defense League We are protesting that a party that has the same ideology (JDL). as the Nazi party of Adolf Hitler exists,” explained Stephen Laub, spokesperson for the JSU. The program was arranged so that members of the three groups could rebuke accusations by American Legion officers who exposed the existence of these organizations on the Channel 2 program Inquiry, earlier this month. “ , Threat Joseph Frechtman, commander of Coast Guard Post 1529 of the American Legion, claimed that these organizations create “a threat to the public order and a menace to peace, and is the prime attack against the black and Jewish communities of Buffalo.” He further charged them with funneling their hate propaganda through the White Power Bookstore . .” which is located at 2133 Bailey Avenue. Let us bear in mind,” Commander Frechtman said, “that the late Senator Huey Long in the late ’20’s said, ‘Fascism could come under the guise of Americanism’ .” Members of the White Power groups who appeared for the taping were Karl Hand, Jr-., coordinator of the White National Guard Party, and Nick Antorino, the party’s treasurer. The groups advocate racial separation, maintaining that the United States is essentially a white man’s country. to avoid genocide, if Mr. Hand elaborated the aims of his party possible, to preserve the white race and restore Christian moral values, and to establish a White American Constitutional Republic. Mr. Hand also said the Bookstore is private and that the press, Jews, Blacks, and police would not be admitted without a warrant. He said funding comes in the form of contributions and dues from ”... . “ . . . — members. Sixty-four members attended the last meeting, he claimed. After maintaining a vigil for about an hour and a half, the demonstrators were informed by police that Mr. Hand and Mr. Anterino had left the studio. Upon hearing this, Judy Friedler of the JSU said, “The cowards snuck out without showing their faces.” Friday’s taping of Inquiry will be aired on Channel 2 Sunday at 12 noon.

Dr.-Capraro, clinical professor in obstetrics and gynecology, reported his study, which covered 25 years and 1360 patients, shows the importance of phsycians teaching women the self-exam procedures. “In nearly 95 percent of cases of cancer of the breast, the woman herself has discovered the lump. But at what stage she finds it can be terribly important,” Dr. Capraro said. “And to date, the most available, least time-consuming and inexpensive way to find the malignant lump is through the self-exam,” he said. The study of the Buffalo women showed that 83 percent of those taught to perform the exam would faithfully do so, but only 13 percent of those who had not been instructed would do likewise. And those performing the self-exam had tumors of only 1—2 centimeters when discovered compared with the non-examining group whose tumors when found were five centimeters or larger. Age over youth Surprising enough, 73 percent of the women age 50 and older regularly examined themselves, compared with only 29 percent of those under 20 and 63 percent of those 20—49. “Although the “Despite the advance of breast cancer detection younger women may have been aware of breat equipment such as thermography, mammography cancer, the older ones were more faithful about and special screening centers, the most inexpensive performing the exam because they had known and easily accesible route to early detection is still someone who had breast cancer,” Dr. Capraro the patient herself,” Dr. Capraro said. pointed out. Size of tumors when detected depended on whether the patient regularly performed the self-exam. Three groups of 51 women each, all of whom had tumors, were questioned. In the group previously taught to perform the exam, the tumors were only 1—2 centimeters when found. The women some who used the exam and in the second group others who did not had tumors ranging from 2-3 centimeters. But in the group who did not perform the exam, tumors were five centimeters or larger. — — Fear of lumps He said that until a reliable and inexpensive breast cancer test can be developed, many women go undected in the early stages. “We have seen what the PAP test has done to lower the mortality rate from uterine cancer, and hopefully we will someday have its equivalent for breast cancer. But until that time, every gynecologist should show his patients how to perform this exam,” Dr. Capraro advised.

A brand new due-process procedure by which students may file academic grievances, and safeguards against “invasion of privacy” for students residing in are the among dormitories, reforms called for in the proposed Bill of Rights. “If the (academic] grievances are justified,” the Bill of Rights states, “appropriate steps would be taken affording a suitable remedy. In extreme cases this may include offering the student a free course or refunding his money.” According to the proposed document, residence hall staff would not be allowed to enter a student’s without his room permission unless there is an “immediate threat to the safety or well-being to the occupants of the room.” This proposed reform directly contradicts the specific terms of Hall the Residence Contract which students must sign before being assigned a room. The contract states that “the University problems will be with the Office enter reserves the right to assigned the room accommodations at any time.” “We feel that the stipulation (in the contract] is an invasion of a student’s right of privacy, which was a major factor considered in writing the Bill of Rights,” explained Steven Schwartz, SA Director of Student Affairs. The idea of a student Bill of Rights has been “kicked around” for a long time, Mr. Schwartz said. The first effort to draft one was by made last September undergraduate Bob Burrick and Hilary Lowell. Ron Stein and Ron Dollman of the Office of Student Affairs were also “instrumental in advisory Mr. help,” giving Schwartz reported. The proposed Bill of Rights was approved by the Student Assembly last Thursday, and has been given to the IRC for their approval, which is expected this week. Mr. Schwartz, Mr. Burrick and IRC President Dave Brownstein have called for a meeting this week with University Housing officials Madison Boyce, Cliff Wilson and Colette Romano. The purpose of the meeting will be “to get feedback from Housing, so that we can anticipate what the reaction will be to the proposed reforms,” Mr. Brownstein said. “I expect that the biggest of Environmental Health and Safety and Campus Security, because if any administrative power is being weakened, it is theirs,” Mr. Brownstein said in reference to the Bill of Rights’ provisions against invasion of privacy. SA Academic Affairs Director Dave Shapiro will meet with Faculty-Senate chairman George Hochfield this week to discuss the effects the Bill of Rights would have on the University’s academic policies. Dr. Hochfield will present the proposed Bill of Rights to the Faculty-Senate Executive Committee, which will decide whether to place it on the agenda of the next Faculty-Senate meeting. “The ultimate decision lies in Dr. Ketter’s.hands,” Mr. Schwartz said. “We are going through all of these other channels first so that he will have a great deal of feedback in considering the proposal.” The proposed Bill of Rights is expected to be on Dr. Ketter’s desk by the last day of classes Mr. Brownstein said, “and I would like him to have approved it by the end of finals week.” He said this would enable him to inform the incoming freshmen of their at rights and responsibilities summer orientation. , AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. full Ms. Dunkin indicated.

If the administration had deliberately sought an atmosphere that could not help but lead to violence, it could not have planned its actions any better than it did. By initially ignoring the demonstrating students and later refusing to meet with them in a unified group. President Robert Ketter proved that he has a shallow understanding of the factors which cause and prevent eruptions within the academic community. The students who amassed at Hayes were aware from the very beginning that no matter what they did, the administration still had final say over the expenditure of all manditory fee monies. All they really hoped for was an opportunity to have a group discussion with the President of the University. By planting themselves along the aisles of Hayes, before ever deciding to block the entrance of Dr. Ketter's office, the students were merely dramatizing their anger over being denied funds which the Student Association voted to give them. When the students, frustrated at being ignored, decided to blockade Dr. Ketter's doorway, they did so for purely symbolic reasons. Their need to extract a concession, even one as unmomentous as Dr. Ketter's agreeing to meet with them in Hayes lobby, stemmed from their frustration with the inequities of University governance. If Dr. Ketter had taken the trouble to come out and speak with a unified group, as the students requested, it might have shown them that the administration believes they comprise an important and viable segment of the University community. Certainly, Dr. Ketter should have forseen that by behaving in the manner in which he did, the students would become even more outraged and take actions that were certain to bring them into contact with the police. It is appalling that he lacked the sensitivity to understand that the elaborate security measures, aimed at preventing a disruption, merely manifested to the students the very closed, guarded decision- making process that prompts them to take disruptive actions. In a telephone interview Saturday evening, Dr. Ketter justified his refusal to speak with a unified group, saying that once they had blocked the entrance to his office, the students were violating the University's "procedures” for free speech and access. Under these conditions, he explained, it would have been "absolutely ridiculous" to meet with the students. It is reasoning like this that provoked the violence which occurred. The moment Dr. Ketter saw a large group of students milling around Hayes Hall Friday morning, he should have stopped what he was doing and come out of his office to speak with them. He had nothing to lose and everything to gain because he could still refuse to free the funds while demonstrating that he respected student opinion. So what if the routine business of the University had to be postponed for a few hours? What difference does it really make, in the long run, if one or two meetings have to be cancelled, paperwork has to be delayed, and procedures have to be altered. It is always difficult to legislate morality for an entire University community. Vet there are times when those in positions of authority have a responsibility to part with mechanical procedures and cope with moral issues, particularly when the question has considerably agitated their largest constituency. In this case, the routine constraints of law and order should have been slightly bent to accommodate what any perceptive individual would have recognized as a tense and potentially explosive situation. Dr. Ketter's punitive, overreactive measures, aimed at quelling the disturbance rather than getting to the source of the problem administration control of student funds is reminiscent of hasty and tragic actions that have been taken in recent years by many appointed and elected officials in the name of law — — and order. It is almost ludicrous that the arrested students were suspended over the weekend, because in Dr. Ketter's own words, their "presence on campus constitutes a clear and present danger to the welfare of this University." One of the most admirable attributes of a person in power is his ability to resist using that power. By showing a total absence of restraint during Friday's disruptions, the administration instigated all of the violence that occured and proved beyond a doubt that it does not understand the tensions which spur unrest at a University campus. — Page six The Spectrum .

Student Association (SA) is now coord mating, action to protect the rights of these students, and to insure that due process is exercised in an effort to prevent any more injustices from being inflicted. Under the rules of campus disorder, a student is entitled to a show-cause hearing. However, this right was, in fact, buried in a two-line statement in an eight page document called Procedures of the Hearing Committee on Campus disruptions. Meanwhile, the fbrward to this document admits that the procedure is written in “legal language.” No layman, especially a frightened and confused student, should be expected to understand their rights as presented in this bewildering manner. SA President, Michele Smith believes this action by Dr. Ketter is misleading. The adminstration is deliberately trying, SA believes, to scare the students. Had SA not directly contacted the 10 students involved, none of the student defendants would have clearly understood their rights to a show-cause hearing. The SA considers the administration’s actions to be another example of administrative overreaction and reprisal. SA again calls upon President Ketter to respect the rights of the individual students whose only crime was the exercise of their rights to free speech and free assembly. We appeal to all parents and members of the community to express their dismay on this matter and urge these severe academic penalties and infringement on basic human rights be ended once and for all.” Editor’s Note: The following statement, concerning the warrants issued by President Robert Ketter to each of the 10 students arrested Friday, was released yesterday by the StudentAssociation. On the evening of April 26, Campus Security, acting on behalf of SUNYAB President Ketter, served warrants on the 10 students arrested April 25. The students, up to that time, had been free on bail, persona] recognizance, or in the custody to their lawyers. These warrants informed the 10 students that they were officially suspended from the University and they must leave the U.B. campus immediately. This leaves the dorm students without living quarters. In the words of the opening statement on the warrants, "... you are barred from participating in any University activity or entering onto or being in any property owned or operated by SUNY at Buffalo. If you are found in violation of the above conditions, you stand liable to being charged with criminal trespass under the PernI Law of the State of New York. " These warrants have evicted the students without any explanation from authorities about their future at the University. They were left by security officers holding a legal form with no explanation or guidance about what they could do on their own behalf. They were isolated from information necessary for their own well being, and could only have felt fear, confusion and a total sense of frustration. Those students from the dorms were left in total ignorance of their status as residents and Guest Opinion Edith’s Note: The following statement was submitted by Terry DiEiUppo. President of the Graduate Student Association (GSA). and Phyllis Schafaer, President of the Millard Fillmore College Student Association (MFCSA ). anti-thesis or contradiction between activity that is political and activity that is educational. In fact, the Constitutional guarantee of freedoms of speech, press and assembly is based on the proposition that there can be no truly democratic political activity unless all citizens are free to including students educate and be educated with respect to political issues. If they are to be settled in a democratic manner, political issues require that the public educate itself concerning them. As persons with privileged access to society’s stores of information and knowledge, students are often obliged to take a leading role in the political self-education of the public that is necessary in a demoncracy. - We hold the Ketter administration fully and exclusively responsible for the violence, injury and arrests of April 25. The administration’s attempt to usurp the right of students to determine autonomously how they will spend their money was a deliberate act of provocation against U.B students. Students duly responded to this provocation with a peaceful sit-in at the Adminsitation building. The Ketter administration then escalated its attack on the students by sending riot-equipped police and dogs against them. This resulted in the arrest of -ten students and many bodily injuries. Students have a formal right to expend their funds for activities such as the Albany Attica Rally which have significant educational and cultural value. However, having no police force with which to back up their right, students could immediately respond to the Ketter administration’s illegal impoundment of their funds only by a peaceful assembly or demonstration to express, their protestations. Public assemblies or demonstrations are modes of political activity guaranteed by the American Constitution and Bill of Rights. The Constitution’s purpose in guaranteeing the right of assembly is to provide means for the public to become informed or educated about important political issues. Unlike Hayes Hall, the Constitution does not recognize any — The Ketter administration is entrenching itself in opposition to democracy and in opposition to the education of the public. Ketter is blocking student funding for the Attica demonstration, the purpose of which is the self-education of the public concerning the political issues of Attica. Ketter barbarically smashed the peaceful student sit-in, the purpose of which was the political self-education of the public with regard to Ketter’s illegal impoundment of student funds. The stupidity and tyranny of the Ketter adrninsitration in these matters has been a disgrace to our University. The adminsitration’s persistence in withholding student monies and in violating student’s rights is a continuing aggression against student self-government and against democracy in general. If this aggression does not soon cease, we will consider pressing for the resignation or removal of President Ketter and the other irresponsible officials in his administration. �Guest Opinion Editor's note: The following statement was endorsed Friday evening by 250 students. Guest Opinion decision our democratically-elected student representatives and concerning fundamental student rights, we feel that it is necessary to set the record straight as to what has transpired here today and to clearly place the blame where it belongs. With ten students arrested and charged with numerous misdemeanor and' felony counts, and scores more facing academic reprisals and possible, expulsion; with several Security people claiming to have been stabbed, and with newspaper and radio reports to the effect that students were carrying dangerous weapons, we feel that it is necessary to set the record straight: 1. Alleged “weapons” that the administration claims to have found included several cans of dog-food, dog leashes and lunch bags. 2. Photographic evidence and numerous eye-witness accounts indicate that what has been termed “stabbing” cut? were in fact received when Security personnel broke the glass window on the office door and reached through the broken glass to grab and subdue demonstrators sitting on the other side of the door. 3. Another source of the “stabbing” allegations is apparent medical reports that a Security officer suffered from “puncture” wounds; a wound which the Security officer evidently cannot even recall having received, and in all likelihood resulted from a glass splinter or from a similar inanimate object. In any event, there is apparently not enough evidence to connect this apparent wound with any action of any student. This allegation is especially ludicrous since some who were in police custody, who have been associated with the alleged assault, were at the time shackled by two sets of handcuffs and physically restrained by several Security personnel. 4. We feel that a lesson in media representation of the facts should be learned from the reports from Attica in September 1975. If we recall the reports of hostages with their throats slashed, and then the truth which was eventually disclosed that all the hostages were killed by bullets from law enforcement personnel, we can see that the reports which are gotten from the administrative and police sources can be misleading, inaccurate and often blatant untruths, disguised with the intention to discredit valid student protests and activism. On Thursday, April 24, more than 300 U.B. students spent several hours with Richard Siggelkow and Anthony Lorenzetti from the Office of Student Affairs to discuss the administration’s decision to impound the $1300 that our Student Association had allocated to pay for buses to transport students to a statewide conference in Albany on the issue of Amnesty for the Attica Brothers and related topics. During a patient and exhaustive discussion, we reiterated our position that the planned activity was clearly in conformity of SUNY Board of Trustees guidelines regulating the use of our funds, and pointed out that, if the allocation did not fall within the guidelines, that the guidelines were an unconstitutional denial of our First Amendment rights to freedom of speech, assembly and petition. In reply, Siggelkow and Lorenzetti not only refused to reconsider their decision, but questioned the truthfulness of our statements of fact without even bothering to investigate further, and showed an absolute lack of understanding of the constitutional issues raised by their decision. To protest what we consider to be an attack upon the right to self-determine the use of our own funds; and this a violation of our free speech and due process rights, on Friday, April 25 at 7:30 in the morning, students entered the lobby of Flayes Hall to engage in a peaceful, nonviolent sit-in in front of Dr. Ketter’s office. Soon after our arrival, after we demanded to speak with President Ketter, Campus Security personnel armed with billyclubs and accompanied by dogs surrounded the building and entered Dr. Ketter’s office through a window. When Dr. Siggelkow informed us that Dr. Ketter would meet with a few of our representatives if we left the building in five minutes, we replied that we would only consider this proposal if Campus Security withdrew from the area and took away their weapons and dogs. Within a few minutes, Campus Security attacked the demonstrators in the lobby. Several Security personnel apparently cut themselves when they smashed through the window to an office door with their arms, fists, and clubs, which they were unable to open because there were people sitting in front of it. At no time did the demonstrators block entrances to the building. While we are concerned that the real issues that we are raising here concerning the arbitrary and capricious administration decision to overrule a — - ■ of We feel that this is a most important point to remember in forming an idea of what actually happened Friday and is the reason why we felt the urgent need to express our view, the students’ view, on Friday’s demonstration.

Mr. Glennon and two other officers were trlated at Millard Fillmore hospital. Several officers pounced on the struggling Mr. Reitz at the same time. He resisted them on nearby steps for several moments. As more officers joined in, Mr. Reitz was grudgingly dragged out to a waiting Campus Security car. There he struggled again, bracing his arms and legs against the car to prevent himself from being pushed inside. As the crowd swelled around the car, the officers struck Mr. Reitz repeatedly on the arms and legs to loosen his grip on the car. A student already handcuffed and seated inside the car bolted and ran, helped by those around him, until one unsympathetic student tripped him, and pursuing officers apprehended him a second time.

The demonstrators, with hundreds in the midst of the 9:50 change of class looking on, regrouped and called for those who had viewed the encounter to join them as they moved toward the Campus Security offices on Winspear Avenue.

Eldred Stephens won four events, leaving most observers to simply muse, “Haven’t we seen this before?” But the people had never seen a Buffalo team finish this high in a SUNY center meet. The Bulls were in the running for the title until Albany State swept the three mile run, the next to last event. Albany finished with 70 points while the Bulls recorded 64 and a surprisingly strong Stony Brook team netted 49. Binghamton pulled up the rear with I 8. Increased scoring The final results were a far cry from the first SUNY Center meet held in Binghamton two years ago, when the Bulls finished dead last and scored low in the teens. Eldred’s fourth win came in the 220-yard dash. If he was tired by that time, he didn’t show it, running away with the race in 22.1 seconds. Joe Worobey took third for the Bulls in that race putting Buffalo ahead of Albany with only four events left. Earlier, Stephens had won the long jump, 100-yard dash and the triple jump, as usual. Nice weather and Sweet Home High School’s all-weather track enabled him to record his best distances of the and 45’1” outdoor season in the jumps. Both efforts, 23’ 1 respectively, qualified him for the post-season IC4A tournament. Stephens had been looking to qualify in the long jump, but couldn’t get very excited about meeting the triple jump standard. He plans on concentrating on the long jump and 100-yard dash in the IC4A meet. ” Stephens best again a 10-5 win. There were no more footfaults called duVing the rest of the game. The crucial point for the Bulls came in the third round. Trailing by just one point, Buffalo won five of its six matches in that round to take the lead for good. Coach Pat McClain explained it simply by saying, “We were just up for this.” Revenge is sweet, especially when the rewards are high. The tennis Bulls can now enjoy its sweetness, having avenged last fall’s 7-2 loss to Albany, while winning the SlJNY Center Tennis Championship on Saturday at Rotary Courts. Buffalo led the field with 13 points. Albany was second with 10, while Binghamton finished with 10. Stony Brook was unable to attend. The Bulls’ quest for revenge was aided by provocation from the Great Danes’Joe Kesterbaum. During the first doubles match, Kesterbaum began calling footfaults on the Bulls’ Randy Murphy. A footfault occurs when the server steps on or over the endline, thereby nullifying the serve. Footfaults are not usually called in intercollegiate competition simply out of courtesy. route to Run, run, run McClain also thought that the Bulls were in better shape than any of the other teams. He had his players doing a lot of running, sometimes as much as two miles. In the grueling eight-hour tournament, this tough conditioning made the difference, especially during the doubles matches which were played last.

Dr. Ketter has been a consistent critic of line-by-line cuts at individual campuses by budget makers in Albany. In the Governor’s analyzing Executive budget before the Faculty-Senate in February, Dr. resentment expressed Ketter towards Albany for making library cuts in internal acquisitions and nursing faculty making instead of one across-the-board reduction. If cuts have to be made, the not an outside University should be allowed to agency trim programs according to its own priorities, according to Dr. Ketter’s point of view. — — Cuts “Previously, we have told them they are not' capable of making this judgment,” he told the Senators, noting that last year’s budget necessitated cutting two School of Nursing faculty. “This year they came and cut eight more,” he said. Besides the cuts in Nursing, the Executive budget called for a reduction of 27 other positions, including five extension and public service jobs, 10 in student services, dormitory six six administrators, and unspecified positions. Although he conceded that final financial authority rests in Albany, Dr. Ketter said that the apparently injudicious cuts were “a matter which on principle, I will fight to the wire.” Dr. Ketter left the impression that he would make these before the State arguments Division of the Budget. And when he and Vice-president for Finance Management Doty and Ed reported they that had successfully demonstrated to an error of Albany how ommission was responsible for a underfunded library markedly acquisitions budget, it seemed for a time that similar progress would be made in restoring slashed faculty and personnel. * Library acquisitions But disclosure of the State University Supplemental budget request this week revealed that although $300,000 was earmarked for library acquisitions, and another $100,000 for Physical plant sales and expenses, no request was made for the jobs that had been cut by the Governor. The supplementary budget requests for at least 25 other campuses asks for the restoration of either executive or legislative cuts. Cornell-Gcneva The experimental Station and the Cornell Agriculture Program were each slated for a request of for the expressed “executive purpose of restoration.” Similarly the State $200,000 College at Oneonta is requesting 52,000 in executive restoration for its Continuing Education Program. Dr. Ketter indicated that he was surprised that restoration of Executive budget cuts were requested. He said that he had been specifically told by Hairy Spindler, Vice Chancellor for allocation for transportation to an Attica support rally in Albany Monday, (SA) Anthony Vice Lorenzetti, associate for Student President rejected the $1300 expenditure because it was “clearly a political activity and therefore outside the (State University) Board of Trustees guidelines concerning permissible expenditures of mandatory student fees.” He explained his decision in a letter to SA Affairs, President Michelle Smith. All SA requests for fee expenditures must be approved by the administration, according to the Trustees’ guidelines. Dr. Lorenzetti is President Ketter’s “designee” for that purpose. Dr. Lorenzetti explained that the Albany trip is “political” because an article in the April 18th edition of The Spectrum referred to the $1300 request as an allocation for buses to bring students to a demonstration, rather than an “educational experience” as it is termed on the request (REP) form. The mandatory fee guidelines do not specifically prohibit political expenditures. The Trustees’ criteria for fee allocations include only programs for cultural and educational “enrichment,” recreational and social activities, tutorial programs, athletic student programs, funding of recognized student clubs if the publications, of educational, cultural, recreational or social nature, insurance related to such organizations are Community Action Corps (CAC) and a member of the Student Assembly who supported the $1300 allotment, said Dr. Lorenzetti’s earlier approval of ten busses to the Attica trials in downtown Buffalo was inconsistent with his current stance. In an April 2 letter to Dr programs, transportation in support of the programs and finally “reimbursement to student officers for service to student government.” Although Dr. Lorenzetti claimed the Albany excursion does not fit the guidelines, he admitted that “there has to be some kind of judgement” made by his office when this type of REP is received. But he said it was not a “personal value judgement,” and that it was “very clear” that the $1300 REP did not fall within the guidelines. Anthony Lorenzetti Inconsistent Lorenzetti, of the UB Attica Support Group and several SA spokesmen indicated that the expenditure could be interpreted as acceptable as “cultural and Representatives educational enrichment.” David Chavis, Director of the successfully Mr. Chavis Justified the downtown trip as a “cultural and educational” benefit to students. “My primary justification concerns the direct informational education and cultural awareness —continued on page 4— Business and Finance for the State University, that he would not be permitted to include in the supplemental budget request cuts made by the Governor in the School of Nursing and Student Affairs personnel. “We asked specifically if we could do it and were told no,” Dr. Ketter said Tuesday, indicating he would discuss the situation with the Chancellor Ernest Boyer this week. Follow the rules Mr. Doty agreed that the “rule of the game” was that campuses their in request cannot things supplemental budgets originally cut by the Governor. He explained that those campuses which did request Executive have must been subject to some set of different restoration conditions, such as increased enrollment. The “objective is to get, not to ask.” he said. Asked if there was money available which could have been used to justify requests for faculty and personnel, Mr. Doty replied: "There isn’t money available, believe me. We don’t want any faculty lines if we don’t have the money to support them” “Support” for faculty lines may consist of the administrative or personnel or secretarial supplies. A spokesman for the Division of the Budget explained that a secretary, for example, would be useless without a be typewriter, which can a support considered for position already secretarial approved. Oneonta is requesting $52,000 in executive restoration for its Continuing Faculty and personnel were included in the version of the —continual on page 4— —O’Neill Richard Siggelkow and Anthony Lorenzetti, who blocked an SA allocation for An Albany rally and workshops in support of the Attica Brothers, address students gathered in Haas Lounge to protest the move. Travel funds disputed Students protest in Hayes About 100 students sat in the main lobby of Hayes Hall yesterday and later University debated two administrators over the rejection of funds approved by the Student Assembly last week that would have provided bus transportation to Albany Monday for rallies and workshops supporting the Attica defendants. The students marched from Norton to Hayes at about 1:30 p.m. and planted themselves along the building’s main aisle. As the crowd overflowed into adjoining protest in corridors, legal aid observers urged them to remain moving in order to avoid breaking federal laws which permit demonstrations in public places as long as they do not obstruct traffic. The students chanted slogans in support of the Attica defendants. At one point, half of “Attica the group shouted means,” prompting the other half to respond “fight back.” After about 30 minutes, Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow, whose office is on the first floor of Hayes, informed the protestors through an intermediary that he would meet with them in a separate room. Undignified When asked why he wouldn’t come out and speak to the students crowding in the lobby, Dr. Siggelkow said it was not “dignified” to speak with them in that fashion. The merits students debated the of remaining in Hayes —continued on page 18— �Registration: new Protest! The long lines and confusion of Registration are all in the past.

Ms. Cook testified that she had infiltrated the Attica defense and received information relating to Mr. Stroble’s defense. She described this information in a private ten-minute session in Justice Mattina’s chambers, but it was not mentioned in the FBI agent Gary Lash denied under oath Tuesday that he had received any information about the strategy of the Attica Legal Defense team from Mary Jo Cook, a former FBI informant who testified a day earlier that she had delivered such information to him. He did confirm, however, that Ms. Cook had infiltrated the Buffalo chapter of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War/Winter Soldiers Organization (WAW/WSO) while working for the FBI from June 1973 to October 1974. The 34 year old federal agent admitted to Justice Joseph Mattina that Ms. Cook “spoke about some activities centering around the Attica uprising” while reporting to him, but denied that he had ever requested her to spy on the Attica defense. Mr. Lash contended that the only information about Attica he had received “concerned planned demonstrations that could ultimately lead to public disturbances.” He testified only ten minutes, before Justice Mattina adjourned court for the day to study a large briefcase full of reports which Ms. Cook said she turned over to Mr. Lash while she was an FBI employees. Tuesday was the second day of hearings to courtroom. In order to prove that Mr. Stroble’s case has been prejudiced, the defense must show that Ms. Cook gave information about him to the FBI and that the agency in turn passed that information along to the State prosecution. At Tuesday’s hearing, Mr. Lash admitted that some of Ms. Cook’s information “could have been turned over to state authorities, specifically to Jack Steinmetz, an official of the Bureau of Criminal Investigation of the State Police. The special Attica prosecutor handling Mr. Stroble’s case, Francis Cryan, replied that Mr. Steinmetz had never worked with the prosecution or supplied it with information. Mr. Cryan has filed an affidavit with the court stating that he never received “information from anybody” concerning the Attica defense activities.

The suit, which was filed last week in Federal District Court of northern New York against New York State, claims that two sections of the New York Code of Rules and Regulations (66.1 A6 and 67.IA3) violate consumers’ rights by restricting price competition. Dennis Kaufman, an attorney for Central NYPIRG in Albany, told the State Assembly Higher Education Committee on April 15 that studies conducted in several cities showed inconsistencies in prices charged by optometrists. “Prices in New York vary 25 to 100 percent over those in other states because of the regulation,” Mr. Kaufman asserted. A study of Manhattan optometrists showed that the state regulation not only infringes on consumers’ rights by preventing price comparisons, but specifically makes it difficult for buyers, especially elderly persons, to seek out reasonable prices, Mr. Kaufman said. Also, a nationwide study conducted by Lee Beriham, an economist at the University of Chicago, which compared prices among states that allow advertising of optical devices with states that do not, showed that advertising restrictions increased prices by at least 25 percent. 'Dr. Benham’s study also concluded that there is no evidence to support the argument that product quality is adversely effected by advertising, Mr. Kaufman told the committee. “Only a few price advertisements may be required to inform a sufficient number of consumers (and produce enough competition] so that the average purchase price is reduced substantially,” Dr. Benham said. The State Education Department oversees some 28 health professions, including veterinarians and lab technicians, as well as the optical fields. Mr. Kaufman feels this is a conflict of interest because the Department at the same time regulates the state’s health education schools. NYPIRG’s suit also cites the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890 and the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in support of its case. While the state should be allowed to regulate speech and the flow of information when there is false or misleading advertising, proper advertising may not be constitutionally prohibited, Mr. Kaufman explained to the committee. NYPIRG does not yet know when the court hearing will be held Page two The Spectrum Friday, 25 April 1975 . . ITO �Athletic proposal SARB against Ketter’s plan by Paige Miller Staff Writer sentence in the letter which she felt supported Mr. Delia’s contention; “It is to be recognized that intramural sports and recreation can be highly compatible with objective number five above, whereas intercollegiate athletics cannot.” (Objective five called for the restructuring of athletics to strengthen the academic programs within the School of Health Education.) SARB also disagreed with Dr. Ketter’s claim that intercollegiate athletics cannot strengthen the School of Health Education. “Intercollegiate athletics are the lab for Physical Education majors just as chem lab is the lab for chemistry majors,” Mr. Delia said. The experience of running intramural programs would probably not be helpful in obtaining a job after graduation, whereas participation on a varsity team would, several SARB members noted. Dr. Ketter’s proposal to create “a strong, academically-based intramural sports and recreation program,” was unacceptable to SARB; first, for not being specific, and second, because it would restructure the intramurals program. Intramurals are now a source of recreation and fun. SARB also interpreted the phrase “making intramurals academically based” to mean giving course credit for participation. This would alter their format and purpose, many believe. Spectrum The Student Athletic Review Board (SARB) voiced its opposition Tuesday to President Robert Ketter’s letter on the future of athletics, claiming that the proposal was deliberately vague to justify the eventual dropping of intercollegiate athletics. Dr. Ketter’s letter proposed a complete separation of intercollegiate athletics and intramurals and recreation, with the state paying for the latter and the Student Association (SA) footing the bill for intercollegiate athletics, including coaches’ salaries. Coaches are currently paid by the state as teachers. SA referendum on the new constitution A resolution calling for a referendum on the new Student Association (SA) constitution was narrowly approved by the Student Assembly in the Haas Lounge Wednesday. The exact date for the referendum was not set however, and an actual vote on the recently adopted constitution may not take place until the fall. Assembly member Robert Cohen, who is spearheading the move for constitutional reform, said a referendum would allow students to chose the constitution they prefer. Several assembly members that an argued immediate referendum would conflict with students studying for finals. Others maintained that students knew very little about either constitution and would not be qualified to vote on the matter. Opinions [new] “The constitution provides a variety of means of representation,” said former SA president Frank Jackalone, now an assembly member, explaining that the task forces were open to students as a means of 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.

After the issue was resolved, the Assembly voted to support a demonstration, psonsored by the Jewish Student Union, the Black Student Union and the Jewish Defense League, protesting the taping of a White Power program at WGR-TV studios on Delaware Ave. today at 3 p.m. No one opposed endorsing a demonstration, although several Assembly members were wary of the exact intentions of the The Assembly pfOtesters. approved a request for $90 for buses to transport students to the demonstration of Channel 2 studios.

SARB members also noted that Dr. Ketter’s proposal for a state-mandated student fee to fund athletics contradicted his later suggestion that SA fund intercollegiate athletics. Dr. Ketter’s “short range actions” drew a barrage of criticism. A stipulation that the Administration should assume the operating costs for intramurals and recreation was called “insincere,” by Mr. Delia, who pointed out that the Administration refused fo even pay for a telephone in the Ketterpillar (Bubble). Dr. Ketter said, however, that if there was sufficient support for his proposal for state funding of intramurals, he would request that the SUNY Trustees take the necessary funds out of the general University budget. The Ketter Plan also calls for SA to appoint an interim athletic director responsible to both SA and the Vice President for Student Affairs. SARB charged, however, that one person cannot be responsible to both and added that “competent” administrators are not easy to come by on an interim Dennis Delia Dr. Ketter explained last week' that his letter was designed to stimulate reaction and prompt discussion of the athletic issues.

Mr. Tien Nguyen, the club’s Vice President, estimated that between 200 and 300 signatures have already been gathered. He hopes to secure at least 10,000 from across the state. The Vietnamese Club is a non-political group of approximately 50 people, including visiting Vietnamese students, a number of concerned Buffalo residents married to Vietnamese people, and people with friends or business associates in South Vietnam. The organization also accepts monetary contributions and they are urging people, especially members of the University community, to write letters and send telegrams to their representatives in support of the humanitarian aid bills. • ' National effort The drive to aid the South Vietnamese people includes 300 colleges and universities nationwide. Many Senators and Congressmen have already announced their support of the aid, including Buffalo congressman Jack Kemp. Ed Rutkowski, an aide to Rep. Kemp, said that the Congressman fully supports the Vietnamese Club’s efforts and will back the humanitarian aid bills on the floor of the House. Collections will be taken up in several local churches this weekend to aid the war victims in South Vietnam. The money will be channeled through the International Red Cross, and used to assist refugees in the hardest hit areas of South Vietnam. Refugees The Vietnamese Club is also compiling lists of family members and friends of Vietnamese Americans which they will send to the U.S. Embassy iiv Saigon. They hope to have these people brought to the embassy so that they can be evacuated safely.

Marvin Resnikoff, a specialist in high-energy theoretical physics and a Rachel Carson College lecturer, has been invited to testify before a Congressional sub-committee examing the problems of nuclear power reactors. The Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs’ subcommittee on Energy and the Environment will hear Dr. Resnikoff speak on the safety of nuclear fuel reprocessing, a process carried on at the West Valley, N.Y. plant, thrity miles southest of here. Sub-Committee Chairman Morris K. Udall (D.-Ariz.) asked Dr. Resnikoff to testify May 2, on behalf of the Sierra Club, a California based conservation group. In all, 19 witnesses, representing industry, citizens groups and the Nuclear Regulatory Committee (NRC) will be called. Ralph Nader and William Anders, Director of the NRC, are but two of the prominent experts who will testify. Dr. Resnikoff has been critical of the nuclear fuel reprocessing plant in West Valley and charges that some of the radioactive wastes meant for storage, escape into the environment. Attica buses.. of those students who attend the meeting” at the courthouse, the letter stated. CAC, which organized the downtown trip, intended to give a brief history of the Attica ordeal, the letter explained. Mr. Chavis said the April 2 event was educational because students could “experience regulations governing behavior in and around the courtroom. Through the presentation of speakers (Attica defendants Charles Pernasalice and Dacajeweiah (John Hill)| students can gain the cultural experience of an individual in the prison system." Assembly’s voice Dr. Lorenzetli defended his decision to approve funding for that program, explaining that it was ‘‘under different circumstances,” and concerned “Buffalo students in their community.” “There were some educational experiences planned and conducted,” he said, but he conceded that his approval of the April 2 REP might have been “stretching the point. It was a tenuous case.” SA Treasurer Carol Block said Wednesday that she did not expect the current REP, which she co-signed, to be rejected. She explained that SA still wants the money to be released because the request represented “the voice of the Assembly.” He has also objected to the plant’s radiation level which is greater .than at any other industry in the country. Also, there is enough plutonium at the plant ot make a bomb 500 times as powerful as the one dropped on Hiroshima, according to Dr. Resnikoff. To complicate the issue, the cost of recycling these radioactive elements is higher than the original cost of the elements, making any re-use of the material an expensive venture. Storage r. Resnikoff will offer at least one alternative to fuel reprocessing storing plutonium and other waste materials until the cost of reporcessing them is lower than mined uranium. The West Valley plant is of more than local interest, according to Dr. Resnikoff, because it is the only commercial reprocessing plant operating in this country. Unless the dangers of the plant are revealed to the committee, he added, similar plants will be in operation by 1980. - —continued from page 1 After receiving word that Dr. Lorenzetti had refused to sign the $ 1300 requisition, Mr. Chavis sent him another letter Wednesday referring to the April 2 downtown bus trip. “At such time you found the justification for an almost identical event way within the Board of Trustees guidelines,” the letter reprimanded. Hr again cited the cultural and educational value, and the Trustees’ allowance for transportation and other student services in support of such activities Irrelevant now Mr. Chavis said that by “these definitions alone,” Dr. Lorenzetti should have approved the SA request. He also said that Dr. Lorenzetti’s concern with use of the terms “rally” and “demonstration” was “irrelevant and such judgement is arbitrary and capricious concerning the actual content of the program.” There will be speakers and workshops for people attending the April 28 event in Albany, similar to those which took place on April 2 in Buffalo, Mr. Chavis emphasized. Dr. Lorenzetti, however, said this was — the situation, he asserted. As The Spectrum went to press, the Attica Support Group was planning a one p.m. rally at the Norton Hall, fountain yesterday, followed by a march to Hayes Hall with a demand that six representatives meet with President Ketter.

TICKETS AVAILABLE AT—- UB/NORTON HALL & TICKETRON OUTLETS �Safeguards are requested for medical records by Larry Kraftowitz Editor-in-chief medical records is critical if To safeguard the right of without sacrificing the quality of medical care, several Buffalo groups have been leading the fight to establish federal statutes that would prevent unauthorized retrieval of computerized medical records. Among the safeguards being considered are legally-binding codes of ethics for computer operators, and provisions for allowing patients to examine and correct information about them that is being stored in data banks. An estimated 4000 “Ethical Health Data Centers” are now operating in the United States. Although they have given physicians unprecedented access to a patient’s complete medical history, which doctors view as an essential tool for providing premium medical care, more and more people have become reluctant to have personal information computerized. privacy patients move around a great deal or are being treated for a variety of ailments by several physicians,” Dr. Gabrielli said. Data centers help doctors retrieve family records which give the background on certain hereditary conditions and are helpful in diagnosis, he explained. Federal guidelines Because patients who underwent abortions, treatment for venereal disease and other •medical conditions frowned upon by society would be afraid the information would fall into the hands of future employers, credit bureaus and other groups, Dr. Gabrielli has been working with several local groups and Congressman Jack Kemp (R., Hamburg) to create federal guidelines to' protect patients’ privacy rights. At the Sixth Buffalo Conference on Computers in Clinical Medicine, held last summer in Niagara Falls, a county group representing law, Dangerous information philosophy, religion, computer Computer operators, science and health planning, supervisors and other unscreened discussed ways of achieving this personnel employed by data goal.

The most important goal of federal legislation, he asserted, is to protect individuals by imposing absolute monetary penalties. Mr. Kemp decided to redraft the privacy bill in January, after circulating the legislation to 200 persons across the country "‘who were on every side of the issue." and receiving suggestions for revisions from about 80, according to Randall Teague, a legislative assistant to Mr. Kemp. person continued on page 6 Free Performance Clinic Mfljb 00 00 cS o K cnxi crm & H 00 o o o o iW I■ W^' Avco Embassy Release SHOW Monetary penalties NOW SHOWING 7 cannot think of a more beautiful and SPECIAL PRICEtruly romantic movie to inaugurate spring" -Pat Collins, WCBS-TV SI. 50 Midnight Show Sat.

Dr. Boyer said a uniform federal law would “specify the penalties for violating the confidentiality of medical information, provide guidelines for training employees and set up a regulatory system which would include periodic inspections” to guarantee that records are up to date. Existing safeguards are “scattered around in an incredible patchwork of vague ‘rights of privacy’ statutes,” Dr. Boyer claimed. Although nurses and other medical aides must be accredited for character and competence, computer operators with access to damaging information obey only the “self-imposed” dictates of confidentiality, he said. !■ TIMES; 7:45 and 10:00 p.m. -Sat.

Mr. Teague said he expected many agencies to oppose the establishment of either type of centralized board, because they were not mandated by the Ervin bill and federal agencies “were led to believe they’d have time” to establish their own safeguards. Another problem with the original bill, according to Mr. Teague, was its failure to make a distinction between the way “patient” and “applicant” records would be handled. Federal board In a doctor-patient But Mr. Kemp now believes it would not be practical to establish relationship, he explained, the a separate body to oversee physician has “no reason or cause medical records because every to release information.” But if group would then want to someone applies for a medical establish a separate board, Mr. insurance reimbursement, or “a Teague reported.

Considerable amounts of financial, military, criminal or information demanded of income-related. Mr. Teague explained that the original provisions for establishing a privacy board to deal only with medical records were a direct response to the absence of “structures” that could enforce privacy safeguards. The Privacy Act of 1974, sponsored by former Senator Sam Ervin (D., North Carolina), “left the question of privacy up to each agency,” he explained. applicants by life insurance companies are sent to a joint computer exchange used by other firms, often without the applicant’s knowledge, Mr. Teague said the revised Kemp bill will probably contain provisions making it illegal for an insurance company to feed information into a central bureau without a person’s permission. “We want to devise a requirement that will safeguard a patient from being denied insurance by one company because he refused to let his information be seen by other, unrelated companies,” he asserted. A further drawback of the original Medical Records Privacy Act was its failure to provide adequate monetary incentives that would encourage states to establish privacy programs, Mr. Teague said. He indicated that the revised version will either increase the incentives or provide for direct agency. If an individual asks to see his funding of privacy programs, agencies will be required records, measures that would prompt to inform him of the existence states to initiate safeguards. and nature of these records, permit him to examine and copy Provisions all medical information, except If the Kemp bill is passed by that which the Privacy Board President by Congress and signed would have an adverse believes Ford, federal agencies will him, and ensure that this effect on thereafter be required to: written in "terms data is personal those Maintain only medical records necessary for comprehensible to a layman.” The legislation would also carrying out the legitimate agencies to 1) permit an force functions of the agency. individual to insert a statement of medical Disseminate correction or explanation of any these records from information only when the recipient has a medical information contained in legitimate need for them and only the record which he believes is not when safeguards established by a accurate, relevant, timely or privacy board have been taken to complete, and 2) inform him of which persons or non-medical protect his privacy. have or have had access agencies to Establish procedures insure that access to personal to his records and why.

Spectrum Greg Bodekor, director of the Society, said its membership includes about 150 people, even though the Center serves from three to five thousand The Mattachine Society is a non-profit organization which promote to better hopes understanding and attitudes toward gay people in our society. Most of the Society’s activities take place at the Gay Community men and much like other people you really are,” Mr. Bodekor said. He that the explained Mattachine Society has taken the the offensive, rather than traditional defensive approach to Services Center, at 1350 Main Street. An executive board, made up of eight elected officers and of twelve chairpeople the different committees within the women a month. The Center’s activities include lectures in the Buffalo area. Mr. Bodekor and Mattachine members recently attended a lecture on homosexuality at Niagara Falls General Hospital. The doctors, realizing that they really knew very little about the subject, turned the lecture over to Mr. counseling meets regularly to determine policy, which is subject to final approval by the general Bodekor. A typical response to these lectures is, “1 didn’t realize how committees. Peer crisis counseling is a means of dealing with individual frustration. One-to-one Society, explaining their sexual orientation. Mr. Bodekor feels it is not gay people who are “sick,” but rather, society in general, for holding such narrow views about homosexuality. Two of the most active branches of the Society are the Senior citizen tutors: Pi ‘being a part of things’ The Community Action Corps (CAC) is now organizing a tutoring program where senior citizens will help children with learning disabilities. The program involves five women from the Rosa Copland Nursing Home and children from the St. Augustine Community Center. The women are all white, mostly Jewish, and all between 80 and 90. The children are all black and between eight and publication sessions encounter and self-development “rap” groups are strongly encouraged. The publication committee is a for responsible publishing monthly newspaper, distributing and pamphlets information maintaining a library at the Center. The Society frequently deals with the problem of latent homosexuality. Due to a conscious or subconscious fear of being gay, the latent homosexual is “negatively aggressive” to other gays, Mr. Bodekor explained. This situation arises most often at the high school age level because young men have not yet come to grips with themselves, he added. Recollection Bodekor recalled an in the Grand Island school district where a student Mr. incident who had no one in his peer group or family' with whom he could discuss his sexual frustrations, drove his parents’ car to the district courthouse and “blew his brains out.” The suicide note he left behind stated that he was convinced he was a homosexual. Gay people in Buffalo face more harassment by lawmakers and than do police their counterparts in Rochester or New York City. Mr. Bodekor pointed out one Buffalo city ordinance forbids the sale of alcohol to a homosexual congregation. Gay bars, such as the Hibatchi Room, freqently have been raided by police solely because they serve homosexuals, Mr. liquor to Bodekor maintained. In fact, the Mattachine Society was originally formed in response to gar bar harassment by police five years ago. The Faculty-Senate Committee on “Permission of Instructor” is now engaged in discussions which will lead to the proposal of guidelines to be followed by faculty members who wish to exercise control over their enrollments through “Permission of the Instructor” power. Any student wishing to make suggestions should send them to John Dings, Department of English, Annex B. and nine years old. There are two four-week training sessions for the women tutors and an on-going weekly supervision session after they begin tutoring. The training sessions cover teaching of technical skills, sensitivity work and role-playing exercises. The sensitivity work involves discussing their feelings about the program and how other people at the nursing home react to the idea of tutoring. The CAC volunteers inform the tutors about the individual children they will be working with, providing their backgrounds and the problems. There is also an orientation session for the children, where the volunteers discuss the tutors and the differences in their ages and backgrounds. CAC hds been working on the project since April 1974, but according to director David Chavis, “There has been a big problem getting senior citizens involved in the program.” CAC put ads in the local newspapers and contacted many community agencies and nursing homes, but the response was not encouraging. Many people wondered howlCAC could expect senior citizens to do something like tutoring. However, the director of recreation at Rosa Copland became interested in the idea and convinced five women from the home to work in the project. “They’re phenomenal,” Mr. Chavis said. “It helps them believe in themselves.” CAC plans to start with this small group of five, refine the program and then put together bigger groups for next year. CAC is also considering working with senior citizens in daycare centers. At last Friday’s training session, one woman said that others don’t try tutoring because “they’re afraid; they don’t have any confidence in themselves,” but explained that she tutors because “I want to be a part of things. I don’t want to be an outsider.” THE UUAB MUSIC COMMITTEE proudly presents "THE SHOW OF THE YEAR" Taj Mahal AND SPECIAL GUEST STAR FREDDIE KING MAY 3 Clark Gym • 8:30 pm TICKETS $2.50 students$3.50 non-students and n.o.p.

Sure it's committed to being folksy, to seeming optimistic, to drawing an audience (of course), and to stating "The Truth" as its director John Berry puts it (in an interview with the Buffalo Evening News). "Most people live alienated lives in our present social structure. Our society faces incredible changes. Fifty percent of marriages end in divorce. No marriage is made without the possibility of divorce. The old bromide of 'love forever' is gone under the garbage heap." What is this Berry anyway; a filmmaker or a pop psychology teacher? While he tried to be committed to all of the above, his "Heart and Soul Comedy" film lacks any commitment to film or comedy. It's as if Berry had this great "message" to tell, added some jokes to it because, as any child knows, "a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down," and then made a film out of it because people go to movies. No real — How about that Carlos Santana: he's now almost one part John.McLaughlin and one part Jackson Browne. Intense! In the middle of the song, the group broke out and really started cooking this "new" Santana — — concern for comedy; none for cinema.

I had heard a Sparks' album and thought that they might be interesting to see live. I had also heard the latest album by last Kraftwerk (you know, Fahr'n Fahr'n Fahr'n Auf Der Autobahn) and thought, having an open mind, that I might be able to tolerate an opening set by them. However, as the pre-concert hype grew, I realized that Kraftwerk, not Sparks, was to headline the show. This puzzled me, until I read that the Autobahn album is in the top ten nationally, which infuriated me. For those of you who haven't bought the album yet, it is ultra-futuristic and electronic ad nauseam, and about as interesting as a Hare Krishna chant. Suppressing this poor outlook, I decided to maintain some semblance of objectivity and be as fair as possible when reviewing the concert. I really began to wonder when I met someone in the audience who had driven from Rochester them a second time. to see Ernie returns Greenslade, an English band, opened the concert with an interesting (though hardly unique) brand of classically oriented rock. With two fully-equipeed keyboard players and (leapin' lizards!) no guitar player, they impressed me as sounding like Rick Wakeman would, had he any brains. They were a bit too loud. The real treat of the evening (for me anyway) was Sparks, the English glitter band which is neither a glitter band, nor from England. If all rock groups tend to sound the same to you, you to should give them a listen quote Rolling Stone: They sound as if "Stravinsky and Gilbert and — Sullivan were reincarnated as a rock and roll power trio." Originally from LA, they have gained a large audience as a singles band in England and, despite these two factors, their musii displays both drive anc imagination. A couple of swells Founding members Ron and Russel Mael are truly a musical comedy team, but their antics must be seen to be appreciated. Russel, although possessing a very unorthodox voice, is an excellent singer, and his behavior on stage is a brilliant parody of the British sort of like Ray Davies, pop star Mick Jagger and Shirley Temple rolled into one. His brother Ron (who with his shirt and tie, slicked back hair and Chaplin mustache, looks like an RAF colonel) merely — sits at the piano, scowling at the audience or eyeing Russel with disgust. Stage show aside, the music itself is fascinating and well written none of the typical three-chord stuff and although 1 am not familiar with their albums, I enjoyed almost everything they did. — — Future schlock As for Kraftwerk, I feel unqualified to criticize them, as I left after about a half-hour's worth of zombie music. These guys are actually serious musicians not a rock group by any means playing what they consider to be serious music on various electronic keyboards, flutes, vibes and even electronic drums. At the risk of sounding uncultured, I will say that I was quite bored by even a half hour of them, as were the many other people I saw leaving. I had still intended to find out why they were selling so many records, but it was my friend from Rochester who finally convinced me to leave after the first few songs. "If you don't like it so far you might as well," he informed me. "It all sounds the same." —John Duncan A greatperformance for a city where you 're at the top — — _aj| in concert, and hence my surprise with Supertramp. Richard Davies, one of the group's lead vocalists, is responsible for most of the keyboard work, playing electric and acoustic pianos and organ, as well as a little harp. Roger Hodgson, vocalist and co-founder (with Davies), played lead, electric and acoustic 12-string guitars, pianos and organ. In addition to playing tenor, alto and soprano saxes and clarinet (all of them pretty well), John Helliwell added pseudo-orchestral lines on a string synthesizer and filled in on organ for one song. These three, teamed with a more than adequate rhythm section, made for a very powerful sound. The vocal work of Hodgson and Davies was excellent, blending with Helliwell in meticulous harmonies vaguely reminiscent of the Beatles. Davies, the singer, on "Bloody Well Right," their single, makes good use of his bluesy though limited voice, while Hodgson ("Dreamer") has a higher pitched, more expressive sound not nearly as obnoxious as it sounds over a car radio. The two complement each other quite well. As you can see, the members of the band were quite busy throughout and the result, combined with very good amplification, and Kleinhans' acoustics, sounded nearly perfect. .The lighting effects and staging were very professional but not overdone (although there was quite a finale) and, despite the lack of an encore, the house was nearly brought down. One thing still bothers me, though after hearing only two new songs and a performance so faithful to the original, I could just as well have listened to the album again. —John Duncan — The opening act was a singer-songwriter named Chris DeBurgh, who did a solo acoustic set and seemed rather nervous. A few trite original songs, and an even more trite version of "Here Comes the Sun" made enough of an impression on me to make me forget his name shortly after he left the stage. To avoid offending those of you who loved him, I'll give him a rating of "far out" on the James Taylor scale of blandness. — — After a fairly short intermission, the lights dimmed and Supertramp walked on, silencing the emphatic applause with the opening harp notes of "School" from Crime of the Century. To those of you familiar with the LP, it should suffice to say that the concert included most of it and sounded twice as good. A fairly creative "concept" album. Crime has some nice musicianship, a few excellent songs, and enough variety of style to interest even those who despise rock. And it's nice to see a band that really works hard at sounding good, something that many musicians are too lazy to do. — SA announces *■* Jt Supertramp's extremely polished live sound results from the fact that three of their members are multi-instrumentalists, playing something like 11 instruments between them. Certain other bands that are capable of doing this in the studio don't bother Crime of the Century indeed. The British group Supertramp (where do they get these names?) has pulled off a big one actually managing to push a halway decent album up the charts and onto the AM the main reason for their playlists. And get this success is the fact that their record sold big in stirring up enough interest from their Buffalo record company to promote them heavily. And while I don't like to rave about a group that gets so much airplay (I'm as sick of their single as you are), they're really pretty good. Probably any of you who have sat down and listened to Crime of the Century will agree with me, as will the large crowd that went nuts at Kleinhans last Friday night. If you don't agree with me, you won't like this review, so stop reading it right now. Ilk All are invited!! SPRING FESTIVAL TODAY SSL April 25th 12 noon 5 pm - jK^J?

In his book. The Disappearing City he predicted a day when land would be reckoned once again by acre, and not by foot. "We have started toward a new integration to an integration along the horizontal line, which we call the great highway," he wrote. He conceived of the prairie house, surrounded by plenty of space, grass and acreage, which is imitated today in the ranch style suburban houses. The Martin home embodies Wright's wildest dreams of a prairie house, since he had absolutely — no budgetary restrictions. The materials used were the best and the labor consisted of the most skilled and intelligent mechanics. A similar house build by Wright in 1903 for a co-worker of Martin's, W.R. Heath, shows how a budget can limit an artist's ideas. Although the Heath house isn't quite as bad as an' imitation Earth-Shoe, its function is somewhat limited by its compromised materials. Emphasizing the plane To emphasize the horizontal planes in the Jewitt, Parkway house, and to assure the solidness of the structure, Wright used Roman brick, an expensive, imported allow that contained iron and had a gold tone that, together with the quality of the brick, has withstood the past three quarters of the century. The building of Wright's houses was difficult because he was a perfectionist. Any construction error had to be torn apart and rebuilt. Since the workers were puzzled by the new architectural problems his plans proposed, there were many The sunburst fireplace.

Although Wright has been criticized for poorly engineering his homes, he did something right with the Martin house. When Darwin Martin passed away in 1927, his family tried to sell the home. But no one wanted to pay the price it had cost to build this house, which was over one million dollars. The house was left vacant for twenty years, during which time the house took a For UB, 1967 The house now belongs to the University, where the Alumni Association and the archives share office space.

Sometimes they had to go as far as Japan to recover the original furniture. When Dr. Myerson left his office, the house was converted to its present function. Dr. and Mrs. Robert Ketter did not care to live in the house, mostly because of Dr. Ketter's height. Wright himself had been a very short man some even considered him a midget. His homes were custom planned for the family who would live in it, but he never neglected his own needs and desires. Since the Martin family was also short, many ceiling beams are very low, and the furniture is tiny and delicate, making the house only comfortable for Sun burst In the room which the Mversons used as a dining room, but was originally a waiting room for Martin's business clients, is a sunburst fireplace, representing the only curves in the house. Before the house was abandoned, there was gold leaf between the bricks that round out the fireplace so that when the sun, came in, the fireplace glowed like a setting sun. Many of the visitors in the Jewitt Parkway house today remark about Wright's uncomfortable furniture. In 1904, when most home lounging furniture was huge, upholstered, and padded with feather fluff, hardly a person found comfort in Wright's chairs. Wright was more concerned with a furniture that would fit the lines of his house, although he wasn't entirely opposed to comfort. There are two barrel chairs in the Martin house, the first Wright ever built in this design, which are considered'the most comfortable of his furniture. They soon became his favorite design and he continued them in his later homes, altering cost. — small people. luarters on the original Martin jinal stained glass windows still tylized wisteria t for this house. window was Eaty-off Wright was brought to Buffalo from Chicago by Darwin Martin when he was visiting his brother, W.H. Martin in Chicago and saw the house Wright had designed for him there. Darwin Martin's principle business was the Larkin Soap Company, a mail order and wholesale concern dealing in soap and grocery staples. (One part of the business eventually branched off into the Easy Off oven cleaning company.) Many of Martin's co-workers were attracted to Wright's building style, and soon commissioned him to design their homes. He built a total of six structures in the city of Buffalo, including an office building and factory for the Larkin Company. This office building, completed in 1904 and torn down in 1950 despite concerned attempts at saving it, was the first entirely air conditioned modern office building. And it was for the Larkin office that Wright designed the first metal office furniture. Some of this furniture was salvaged and recently exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. One of the chairs, which looks like a robot that once appeared on Star Trek, is now contained at the Martin home. was a fireplace before surrounded by a wisteria mosaic. Wright A good idea Most of the private homes he designed still remain here today the house on Summitt Avenue, the gardener's quarters of the original Martin estate, the Heath House on Soldiers Place, and the Walter Davidson house on Tillinghast Place. These all lack the magnificence of the emphasized planes and the damages, shapes them slightly so they could be turned upside down and sat up either way. Wright believes the roots of his creation were in the blocks he was given to play with at the Frederick Froebel Kindergarten he went to in 1876. With these, children learned that they should not "draw from casual appearances of Nature until they had first mastered the basic forms lying hidden behind appearances." In kindergarten, "design was recreation." The cube, sphere and tetrahedron maple blocks became basic units of his later designs. His Imperial Hotel in Tokyo, Japan, demolished in 1968, is the most obvious of the developed collage of these units. Some remnants of it' are on exhibit in the basement of thy Martin house. In the 600 buildings and houses he designed, Wright is tributed for developing floor heating, central air conditioning, car ports, corner windows and indirect lighting. His contribution to the exodus from the cities, the prairie house, was a new comfortable living style, lighted by its own electric plant, heated by its own hot water plant, with all of the water filtered and hot water on circulation. in his furniture.

Wright disliked paintings, and the design of his walls, framed tightly with columns and beams, would not accommodate paintings. Wright left very little for individual personalities to decorate a house, forcing himself and his style on the inhabitants.

Casey to Spectrum Arts Staff attendant's Why is old age such a depressing state? Why is science so intent on prolonging old age if it's such a terrible ordeal? Why is so much money spent so that an old person will die in a hospital bed rather than his own? Why do we help those who want to live but punish those who want to die? How can a culture oriented by and toward youth know about the needs and wants of old people? Do we know what those needs and wants are? Lichter, Morton playwright-in-residence for the Center For Theatre Research, has used the subject of sex to show how little we know about old age. From conversations with "senior citizens," he has created Old Timer's Sexual Symphony (and other notes), a play that makes us face the reality that the.word 'sex' reply: "Mrs. Smith, you have a filthy mouth." She is spanked, tied to her wheelchair, and left alone. Old Timer's Sexual Symphony land other notes) is an uncomfortable play. It's supposed to be. It's still in the beginning stages, and there are minor parts where the action is confused or confusing, but that doesn't prevent the idea from coming through strongly. Mr. Lichter is taking his play to New York shortly. Perhaps when it *is will return to Buffalo. I hope so. It's a play that everyone should see before they get old. completed, it We have all heard the joke "Grandfather still chases women, he just doesn't know what to do once he catches them." But we never hear about Grandma. Somehow, the sight of an old man fondling a young girl's body has little effect compared to an old woman saying exactly what she wants. Purpose; to disturb Old Timer’s Sexual Symphony is a play that is supposed to make you uncomfortable. We feel uncomfortable when the young man (Evan Parry) answers the old man's pleas with "What about me? I've got a life too, you know." We understand them both, but we relate to only one of them. when We feel uncomfortable the male nurse (Michael Pelonero) ties the old woman to her wheelchair. We know such things happen, and we know that Our Weekly Reader Robinson Risner, The Passing of the Night: Seven Years as a Prisoner of the North Vietnamese (Ballantine Books, paper) There have been many books written about the American prisoners of war in North Vietnam, but I believe that none of them has the impact of Colonel Robinson Risner's The Passing of the Night: My Seven Years as a Prisoner of the North Vietnamese. Colonel Risner was shot down over North Vietnam on September 16, 1965 while on a routine bombing mission. However, being shot down was nothing new for Colonel Risner. Colonel Risner, a professional military man, was a flying ace in the Korean War. He was one of the 22 U.S. pilots who shot down more than five Korean planes. On one of his bombing missions in Korea he was shot down and, for some reason unknown to him, his rescue was covered by Time Magazine, with his picture appearing on the front cover. After his return to America, he gave public lectures, discussing the reasons for this country's involvement in Indochina. These two things were going to cause him serious problems later during his captivity in North Vietnam. Colonel The characters in a man and a woman (played by Howland and Leona Chamberlin) who take us through their memories first, a fantasy next, and finally a brutal reality. They recount their lives for us in fragments. He talks about his getting married, his job, his sexual conquest with one secretary, his failure with another, main Symphony are all sexual milestones in his life. Second childishness oblivion and mere Likewise, she speaks of dating, marriage, her affair with the milkman, and the baby she wanted so badly. "I didn't have a life," he concludes. She answers, "Everything we have is falling apart." The only thing they share now turns out to be regret. It's years later, and he is at the point where he giggles uncontrollably as he talks of his fear of being left alone. His attention switches from the young man he is with to his sexual fantasy-girl that has suddenly appeared. He speaks to both, but finds neither can give him exactly what he wants. He wants security. He doesn't want to be left alone. She now depends on a male nurse to keep her alive. Her husband is dead, and she spends all day in bed, except for the walks she is forced to take by her nurse. She screams at him to leave her alone, to let her die, but he won't; he has his orders. She tries to explain that she doesn't want him there, she doesn't want to take a walk, she doesn't want to The acting is very good, and conveys the message well. Howland and Leona Chamberlin are excellent in their difficult roles, much more effective than younger actors would have been. They add a sense of reality usually lost in the make up. The rest of the cast works well with Howland and Chamberlin, standing back and letting each other work, rather than competing for the audience's attention. Particularly effective is Michael Pelonero, whose calm but impatient attendant is both hateful and real at the same time. He is perfect as the nurse with the voice grade-school-teacher's ("Mrs. Smith, how can I help you if you won't cooperate?"). The music, written and performed by Jeff Brooks, fits well with the mood of the play. The nature of Love Della Love, the woman who begins and ends the play, deserves special mention. She was originally commissioned by Mr. Lichter to dust, but fortunately she wound up on stage, and she's great. She simply walks around the stage giving her imaginary friend all the latest news about what's going on in the neighborhood. In one beautiful segment, she captures the basic idea of the play. In an exchange between a grandmother and her grandson, he asks, "Grandma, at what age does a person 'lose their nature'?" to which she replies, "Don't ask me! I ain't found out yet." Della wrote her own part for this play.

Much of the torture which the POW's suffered consisted of intense psychological attempts to change the attitudes of the captives. For this reason, he went through additional torture because the North Vietnamese felt an even greater need to indoctrinate him to their ideology. One of the things which he vowed when captured was to refuse to cooperate with his captors, a vow which he carried to extremes. Mr, Risner suffered three brutal beatings rather than allowing the North Vietnamese to obtain written statements om him for propaganda purposes. In order to stop them from using him as a radio broadcaster, he attempted to destroy his vocal cords. At first he tried violently hitting his larynx; when that did not succeed, he gargled with a mixture of water and the lye from his soap.

Bnlinntin* <® My m by Israel Friedman Hello again dear readers. It's too bad I've missed the last three weeks. Too bad for me that is, because even if you didn't miss me, I've certainly missed you. It's been rough, but I think I've emerged the winner after a 15 round knock down, drag-out bout with several quarts of Wild Turkey. I even managed to do some of my drinking in the public houses in town so here's the rundown. Went to see King of Hearts last weekend. Very great movie, about what is real and what isn't, and who's to say who should be on the outside looking in and who should be on the inside looking out. Very interesting. After the movie, we made our way over to "Ma Barkers." It's on Kenmore Ave. right across the street from St. Joe's High School. Last time I lived in Buffalo, this place was called Eduardo's, and it served some fine pizza and other Italian food. Now it's "Ma Barkers" and you'll find a whole slew of old cars all over the place, really, on the roof, on a pole, in the parking lot, almost anywhere you look. But when you get inside, the red hot coals building up inside begin to cool. There's this girl in front of us and it seems like this guy at the door just isn't going to let this girt into the club because she's wearing jeans. In a rush of panic we quickly glance down, first at ourselves, then at each other, only to breathe a sign of relief. O.K. we're all right. Funny, just for that instand nobody seemed to remember what they were wearing. The girl turns, dishearted, and rqakes for the door. We sashay into the bar room. The reaon I say sashay is because as soon as somebody comes into the room and heads toward the bar, all eyes in the place move in their direction to see if it's anybody of interest. And I'm not just talking about the men ogling the women: the women are just the samy way. It's a strange sensation to watch people look at each other as if they were a side of beef, everyone making their own appraisals as you go by. Since you feel all those eyes on you, you might just as well sashay right on in, which is exactly what we did. After a little while we found a table and ordered some drinks, weak and overpriced, and paused for a second to have a gander at our environment. A quick glance in the direction of the stage: a white band with a black woman singer, playing some funky shit music. They might be worth coming back to hear on a night when the place is quiet, but that night they were no better than a jukebox. There was nothing else about the place that was worth remembering, other than it had a big round bar. We had to flee. "Whew, let's find some place where we can relax and have fun, and I know the perfect place." That's right, there is a place in town where you can relax, enjoy yourself, and look around and see everyone else having a good time, too. And why not, when the band consists of a not so old grey-haired guy that looks like a cross between Roy Clark and Charley Rich singing, a woman about the same age playing fiddle and a trio of country musicians all getting together to give you their rendition of that old Conway Twitty tune, “Young Love, True Love." The "Club Utica," that's it. The "Club Utica" over on Buffalo's West Side. And this place is as close to what you'd call a honky-tonk saloon as any place in Buffalo. Just lots of folks steppin' out for some spirits, a little dancin' and a good time. After the other bar, this place was like heaven and that's the point of all this. "Ma Barkers" had all the swinging singles, people who were supposed to have something on the ball, and nobody in the whole place looked like they were having a good time. While at the "Club Utica," it was obvious that everyone was having a good time, and this place was cowboys, working claSs and kids in jeans. full of people —Hear 0 Israel— For gems from the JEWISH BIBLE Phone 875-4265 Prodigal Sun �Past the effetes The artist as a thinking, involved social being by Paul Krehbiel Contributing Editor While artists are often portrayed as individualists by nature, there are a few who emphatically oppose this view both in words and in their work. While rare on the American scene today, these artists believe that artists, like all people, are social beings, and that they derive their creativity from their involvement in the lives of ordinary people. Not "outside" of society, or "above" it, as some falsely believe, these artists feel that they have a social responsibility to produce art that addresses the everyday lives of broad groups of people their hopes and dreams, their joys and sorrows, their triumphs and defeats. Vet these socially conscious artists get little publicity from the profit-oriented mass media, and often eke out an existence in the unknown world of obscurity. Vet, history provides a rich tradition of socially conscious artists, and when they capture the sentiments of a people in motion, they are propelled to the center stage of history. - Jean Louis Forain (1852-1931), in his Three Workers, captures the mood of these downtrodden men in their temporary escape from the job. Forain maintained sympathy for the poor, and often attacked the rich in satirical drawings and lithographs. Across the border in Germany, Kathe Kollwitz (1867-1945) was producing drawings and prints of a similar nature. Highly skilled in drawing, her etchings capture the emotion of people in their struggle with life. Among her hundreds of prints is the unique series on Germany's Peasant Wars of the 1700's, which she learned about from progressive writers and socialists. — Talented artist She produced another series of The first Peasants Such was the case in Europe in the early of the industrial revolution, which facilitated the transition from a disintegrating feudal system to capitalism. The life of the peasants grew worse, as many were thrown off their land, and they were left to wander, beg, rob and dodge the authorities and the vagrancy laws, or take jobs as wage laborers in the young days oppressive manufacturing enterprises. Artists and writers responded to the economic, social and political disruption of the,people's lives, and produced hundreds of sketches, paintings, prints, essays and books recording this turbulent period. Occassionally, artists were inspired by the tremendous revolutions that shook the very fabric of society, from the French Revolution of 1789, to the European revolutions of 1848, to the Russian prints recording the desperate plight and revolt of the Silesian weavers in 1840, after seeing the theater production oof The Weavers, by Gerhart Hauptmann. The weavers, working at hand looms in their own cottages, were becoming totally impoverished as power looms and the factory system undercut their labor. two and show repression. Worked over and over at great pains for four years, this series is a masterpiece of class-conscious art. When the Russian workers and peasants overthrew the Tsar and capitalism in two Revolution of 1917. Revolutions Muralists French artists, Honore Daumier 808-1 879), Camille Pissarro (1830-1903), Auguste Lepere (1849-1918), and others revered the life of the peasant. Heavily taxed, thrown from his land, and abused in the towns, the peasant became a heroic figure, particularly after rising with artisans and town workers in France and Germany in the earthshaking revolutions of 1848. While these artists defended the peasants and their calm rural life through their paintings, the capitalist mode of production and increasing industrialization continued to tear them from their land. Pissarro, among others, was influenced by the ideas of anarchists, and socialists including Marx. By the late 1880's and 1890's, many artists had joined radical writers in producing journals that put forward the idea that both artists and workers were victims of capitalist society. One exceptional artist from this period was Alphonse Legros (1837-1911). Introduced to etching, he helped promote its renaissance in the 1860's in Paris. Recognized as a talented artist, Legros produced over 800 prints, maintaining high creative and technical standards. Depicting wandering beggars or weary peasants, he was considered a master print-maker. His careful etching resulted in soft textured effects, which often enhanced his subjects. In his Le Retour du bois, (Return from the wood) he captures the idyllic but hard life of the peasants in the rural countryside. Workers As the town workers grew in number, many artists, including Edgar Degas (1 834-1 917), Eugene Carriere (1849-1906), and others portrayed their lives. Forced to labor long hours under horribly oppressive conditions, the urban worker was robbed of everything but his ability to work. The increasing dehumanization and impoverishment of the workers is graphically portrayed in the sketches and prints of these socially conscious artists.

Along with fellow artists Diego Rivera Jose Orozco, Sigueiros eventually gained international recognition. "Ours was a movement that expressed in large dynamic form on walls that millions could see, the revolutionary national and social aspirations of the Mexican people,'' wrote Sequeiros. and As a boy, he attended the San Carlos Acadamy for art in Mexico City, and like most art students, fought in the Mexican Revolution of 1911 1917, to break the chains of feudalism. Later he fought in the Spanish Civil War against fascism. bohemians' He speaks of the Mexican Revolution "Before that, we were typical bohemians. Our bodies were in Mexico, but our souls were in Paris, and we didn't want to know our own country. Participation in the armed struggle taught us the geography, ethnography and history of Mexico. It brought us into contact with its people peasants, workers and Indians." Siqueiros' art began to reflect the aspirations of these people, and he became involved in many social and political movements. Among various activities he helped to organize mine-workers, teachers and students and to win support for the Cuban Revolution of 1959, and was arrested, jailed, and exiled a number of times. Once, while jailed for his participation in a railroad workers strike, he covered the prison walls with murals. Combining his art with his social and political activities, Siqueiros joined the Communist Party of Mexico and initiated the party's paper, El Machete (now La Voz). He was at one time the Party secretary, and authored numerous papers on art and politics.

Siqueiros wrote: "So long as artists do not conquer the opinion of the popular majorities, they will never be able, with their own expressive means, with their corresponding aesthetic scale, to produce an art as powerful as that of the best epochs of the past. Their art will be one-sided and incomplete. It will have within its reach only an insignificant group of effetes." Friday, 25 April 1975 The Spectrum Page fifteen .

Melissa is reminiscent of Laura Nyro in her il* but thr ibilf' - ' interesting melodically, instrumentally polished and thoughtfully arranged, and all sung magnificently. Melissa's voice may be gentle and soothing, provacatively taunting, or powerful and throaty as she sings blues-rock straight from the gut. But her control and timing never falter. Her back-up serves to reinforce the rhythm, point up the melody and underscore her voice. Most of the songs are backed up by James Newton Howard on electric piano, David Wolfert on acoustic and electric guitar. Cooker Lo Presti on bass, and Kirk Bruner on drums. Synthesizer, organ, sax, congas and trumpets are utilized ocassionally. Melissa herself plays a more than proficient piano. I have no complaints with her back-up, but matched against her voice, I can't guarantee that you'll pay much attention to anyone else. In all her songs, Melissa manages to convey the complexity of female emotions; though each tune is a self-contained unit, it goes through its own cycle of feelings in a neat 3-minute package. From the bump-rhythm of "Party Music" to the exhuberant strength of vision in "Just Too Many People" to the wisdom and wistfullness of "Midnite Blue," to the coy, whimsical flavor of "I Got Eyes" to the pathos of "This Lady's Not Home."

Like Led Zeppelin, Bad Company's sound sluggishly surges from macho power chording and sexual catcalls, groaning and other assorted moans, all supposed to be wildly erotic. It would appear that Bad Company, who is tersely worded emphathetic statement of a woman's needs and desires rivals anything that Sigmund Freud could muster on the enigmatic subject. Sexism has always plagued rock, but Bad Comapny is so blatant and singleminded in its stance that the excesses of male macho become too intolerable and offensive to dismiss. I can't locate any redeeming social value on this Ip. It is neither recording on Led Zepplin's record label Swan Song, entertaining nor enlightening. Bad Company is about is being groomed to succeed the Limp Blimp as the thr ->uld h. thr br kings of cucumber rock. This theory derives more than its share of credibility with the circulation of rumors noting Jimmy Page's worsening senility and Robert Plant's contraction of a fatal case of prickly heat. Cucumber rock translated into the vernacular is’ rocks off music guided be a puerile, male chauvinist sexual vision, or should I say a stigmatrsm. The much bandied about supposition that Bad Comapny is a supergroup is highly suspect. Paul Rodgers and Simon Kirke from Free dictate the group's musical posture. Rodgers and Kirke see that Bad Company's music never transcends the vacuous shallowness which Free so habitually inhabited. Mick Ralphs, Mott The Hoople's contribution to this bogus superband, is satisfied to cash in any artistry he might possess for the money and exposure assured him by Joining this crew of flunkies. Straight Shooter, Bad Company's latest foray into cucumber rock, is saturated with prosaic riffs and a gross lyrical ineptitude. Paul Rodgers' lead vocals are never better than mediocre, while often wallowing close to that area labeled yeah, yeah, yeah or some other insipid phrase throughout the record event that your door is smashed in at midnight by is funky or sexual.

Deal /Unclaimed Freight, (Columbia) It seems to be in vogue to collect the best of an artist's work and call it an anthology. Columbia has done this with Al Kooper, and with reasonable success. The work comes from various albums done with his friends, mostly out on the West Coast. Side one is taken from the first Blood, Sweat and Tears album. Child is Father to the Man. This music is a pleasant montage of jazz, starting with the Kooper cut, "I Can't Quit Her." Al does the keyboards, lead vocals and arrangements for this side with technical expertise provided by the likes of Steve Katz and Fred Lipsius. Notable performances are turned in by them, as well as by the horn section, which maintains a tight, cohesive sound throughout. Kooper penned all the tracks on the side with the exception of "Without Her," by Harry Nilsson and "So Much Love/Underture," by Carole King and Gerry Goffin. If there are any slow parts here, they are due to the repetitiveness of Kooper's voice. However, this does not continue throughout the album and is not especially irritating anyway. Nilsson's tune is a very mellow song describing one man's need for his special woman. On "So Much Love," Al's limited vocal range holds him back, although his supporting musicians do a great deal to make up for it. Kooper's songwriting style is not redundant, and he knows how to make good use of all the instruments that he has at his disposal. Side two represents Kooper's blues side. On "Albert's Shuffle," Micheal Bloomfield assists with some fine guitar that fits in extremely well with Kooper's organ. This cut and "Season of the Witch," which follows, was taken from the Super Session LP done with Steve Stills. "Season of the Witch" is an eleven minute version of the original Donovan work which never drags, thanks to the intimate jamming of Kooper, Stills, Brooks, and Eddie Hoh on percussion. Harvey Brook's bass is precisely present, but does not intrude on the overall sound of the piece. The side ends with Dylan's "If Dogs Run Free," with an excellent scat vocal by Maretha Stewart. Al keeps his piano accompaniment pretty low keyed, as it is Dylan's song, but it was worth including, if only to expose another side of this versatile artist. Bloofield joins Al again on the third side, for two songs recorded live at the Fillmore West: "The 59th Street Bridge Song" by Paul Simon, and an instrumental version of 'The Weight." Paul Simon does harmonies for his song and John Kahn, who has worked with Simon, plays bass for both cuts. The live sound is definitely there, sans mistakes that all too often marr some live recordings. Incidentally, both tunes can also be found on The Live Adventures of Mike Bloomfield and A! Kooper, an album that attests to the compatability of Kooper and Bloomfield. "Bury My Body" comes from Kooper's session with Shuggie Otis. It's worth noting that Otis was Only 15 years old when the album was cut. He and Kooper really cook for close to nine minutes. Ms. Stewart returns with Hilda Harris and Albertine Robinson to do some very nice background vocals. "Jolie," the last song on side three, gives Al a chance to try his hand at string and horn synthesizer. Although I am not, in general, a fan of synthesized music, I was pleased with this approach to a pretty song. "I Stand Alone" shows kooper making overtures to the BS&T days of his past. The familiar horn sound is there again with Charlie McCoy doing the arrangements this time. "Brand New Day," from the Easy Does It album, is probably my favorite. Kooper plays all guitars, piano, organ and six string bass. It is reminescent of late 60's optimism, describing his conception of our potential for love. If this sounds Flower-Childish at least it is a welcome change from the pessimistic attitudes reinforced by modern universities. John Prine's "Sam Stone" vents his frustrations at the problem of hard drug addiction, something the war did nothing to dissapate. He then settles into "New York City (You're a Woman)", using a Mellotron and organ, among other instruments, to express his perplexion at that island that can be so cold and so attractive at the same time. The Ray Charles celebration "I Got a Woman" closes the set, and provides a vehicle for the expert use of strings and horns, both arranged by Oiarlie Calello. Stu Woods and Fred Sipsius step out respectively with bass and alto sax solos that add a well-rounded final touch to some sweet sounds. If you are already familiar with Al Kooper, this two record set will reaffirm what you already know. If, like me, he was only a name on the back of album covers to you, you could very possibly be subtly surprised. Al and the folks at Columbia have gotten together a fine set for you. -Bill Ickes Prodigal Sun �Can the cosmic wrapper To the Editor. Another episode of the assinine political maneuvering that typifies the situation at our fine University was witnessed last Wednesday (April 16) at the so-called assembly meeting. We refer to the granting, by the Assembly to Mr. Michael “Lev” Levinson the right to present a “Cultural” program just before the Speakers’ Bureau sponsored address by David Brinkley. While we are not overly thrilled with Mr. Brinkley, we feel that Mr, Levinson’s presentation will hofd no redeeming social value, and will be literally a waste of the people’s precious time. If the Student Association continues to be so arbitrary and capricious as to allow such a person as Mr. Levinson to speak especially after ranting and raving like a child, who will they not allow to speak Stan Morrow? Or perhaps Richard Nixon? If such travesties are allowed to continue, it seems that our nation will be on the road to oblivion sooner than Gerald Ford’s current time table calls for. - Levon Smith SIC To the Editor.

To those concerned about Attica and the SA allocation of mandatory student fees. Each year we are required by law to contribute $67 in mandatory fees to a small body of people for distribution between various student activities and interests. We are required by a law which earlier this year we had the chance to amend, but few of us even voted. 1 don’t want buses to the Sabre’s games and disapprove of the way most of our money is spent. For those of you so hot and bothered by a $ I 300 allotment out of a budget of $800,000, keep in mind what a small percentage that comes out to be. If you want to play statistics it comes out to less than a quarter per person. If the approximately 200 students now working around the Attica trials, and the few hundred or so people whd support the struggle had the opportunity to do so, we would surely be willing to part with more than 25 cents out of the total $67. I think we would all like more of a say in where our money is spent. If one went to the SA meeting on April 14 they would have heard SA members discuss the foolishness of such a proposition. They voted down an amendment that would have allowed students to vote on the allocation of their fees. If we had this power each student could allot the share they wish (be it S5 for Day Care or buses to concerts or $3 for speakers or whatever- to their primary concerns. No one is wasting your money! We just need to have more of a say as to where it goes. Hopefully, through the efforts of a number of people (and the more that help the better) the SA will be open to all of us. We can get rid of the new bureaucratic constitution and, at the very least, get a referendum or computer form questionnaire together so that all students can decide on the allotment of funds. Harold Meyrowitz What's the story? To the Editor I must admit 1 find the politics, even the logic of The Spectrum confusing. On the one hand you call for a complete end to U S. involvement in Southeast Asia, a typically liberal position which I expect of those who have no commitment to destruction of life-denying social-economic forces other than a naive moral one. On the other hand you publish advertisements for Marine Corps recruitment and Reserve Officers Training Corps, an indefensibly reactionary act. The United States has gone to far along its self-contradictory path in the last 15 years not to demand that you see the inherent contrariety involved herein. Marine Corps and ROTC is, in post-Nuremberg, post-industrial logic directly responsible, a direct link in U.S. imperialism at home (you also publish a story urging students to buy Iceberg lettuce, a direct attack upon the United Farm Workers who have for several years engaged in nationwide boycott of such scab products) and abroad. For you to publish such ads and opinions constitutes complicity in that which you condemn. So what’s the story? - be noted that this controversial poet Michael Stephen Levinson lives here in Western, N Y. Furthermore. Lev did a television program on Amherst cablevision and it was written up big in the local press. The CTIANCiLS party. elected with all their computer programs are all dorm students from Queens, naturally, so they arent responsive to community needs and or desires. On the other hand. President Mishelle Smith remarked that she had heard of l,ve before she was a student here and read some of Lev’s hook and Lev was famous. The resolution sponsoring LFV in the gym was made because the Assembly recognized that Stan Morrow, the PAID student in charge of The Speaker’s Beaurow wouldn’t put it on his program. This was separate sponsership (beaurecracy, etc.). Stan Morrow not ownly disobeyed a resolution by the body at large to cooperate with the production of this separate cultural event. He also lied sic to and misled the executive about Brinkley’s contract with the S.A. and in concert with Tony Schimmel non person from the gsa did what I’m going to tell you: Friday morning the word came out that if anything happened when Brinkley was here and he didn’t know about it a month in advance, the stew dent assoc, could get sued. The contractual clause in Brinkley’s contract means that if he’s hired to speak he comes and gives a speech and not to necessarily be on a panal with 14 sex liberationists. There isn’t anything in Brinkley’s contract that can be reasonably contrued to exclude the possibility of good news in poetic form being created and presented in the same auditorium before David Brinkley’s arrival in that auditorium When 1 met with Stan Morrow at this request so he could deturmine what I was doing (this is student czar as censor . . and you pay him a stipen), 1 explained to him that I was going to sing some cosmic poems about world prob limbs that wold demonstrate possible answers to problems that Brinkley might raise in his speech (Vietnam-Israel the Economy); and that during the question and answer period, 1 was going to reacquaint myself with him and ask him a lot of serious questions about t.v. news. And give him a letter for President Ford. About Peace. And give him the color video tape of what happened in the Gym before he arrived so he It should prophet - . — could tune in at his own leisure. NBC has at least a half hour of Lev on tape already. I told all of this to Stan After I was interviewed by Mr. Morrow I was accosted in the hall by Tony Schimmel. He claimed that the gsa was sponsoring Brinkley and he was against my speaking and a bunch of other stuff that indicate to me that this dude is a sad sick human being in need of psychological rehabilitation. Here is a guy who refused to shit when he was a little kid and despises his mother. Actually the gsa didn’t sponser anything and Tony Schimmel distinguished himself later. Mishelle Smith ORDERED Stan Morrow to announce beforehand that I was supposed to appear beforehand but blah blah blah afterword. That would make if official for the 600 sum odd dummies who had converged on Clark hall for whatever. Instead, when 1 arrived Stan sook me out sat down and told me that contrary to plan 1 could only speak afterword for 10 minutes and he didn’t announce it. When I was recognized by the speaker some one else started talking. When I got to the mike and waited my turn the floor mike was too loud Brinkley couldnt get the questions so you couldn’t talk to him on the microphone and be heard on the radio. The floor mike was made inoperative by the sound technitions on orders from Morrow and Schimmel. Brinkley had finished his speech and was into quest and answers by 8:40. When I spoke with him he recalled our meeting said that as long as he almost had a Lev book before I should give him one there. And after the questions I should recite my poems. One of the questioners was a grad student who once circulated a petition on the second floor of Norton to have you know who BARREDfrom the campus. The questions and answers got so boring that finally Brinkley said ok two more questions and I’m going. After the question (fearing I imagine that these dummies in the gym were going to surround him he headed for the door). 1 hadn’t given him a Lev book yet so 1 walked toward him and was blocked by a security person Diane who told me that she was ordered to keep me away. When 1 get up to Brinkley 1 say David here is your book he says ‘thats right’ but I’m having trouble handing it to him because a student has me by the right arm and someone was trying to pull at my left I was just barely able to put the book and my mother’s campaign literature in his hands. The Speaker told me I was to have 10 minutes. I walk bak to the microphone and Tony Schimmel appears directly in front of me with his back to the audience and smirks “Thank you for your cooperation” . . sad. The microphone didn’t want to work right and they began to immediately break down the equipment crashing chairs, etc. Upon my return to Norton Union 1 ran into the THREE editors in charge of the most recent LEV story. As I recall we four of us went over to Dr. Ketter’s house where there was a reception. There could haye been 20 or 30 friends. Mrs. Ketter gave me a plateful of delicious food. The potato salad was great. So was the conversation with Tony Lorrenzetti. So were the last few moments with - - . Brinkley. Dr. Ketter looked worn out. From being surrounded by creep students instead of normal people. The President of the S.A. told me 1 have the right to speak and they are going to sponser me again. - Michael Stephen Levinson Fred Friedman Friday, 25 April 1975 The Spectrum .

If it doesn’t work, we can always come back,” —continued from page l — mandatory feef calling the system here “probably the worst in the country.” Referring to funds that had been voted for buses to Albany, he said: “I will use all the power, all the persuasion I have to convince the President not to approve this money.

Dr. Siggelkow, Dr. Lorenzetti and Attica support group leaders seated and themselves before the assembled students at the far end of Hass lounge, gave opening statements and then fielded questions. Cleariy unconstitutional The mandatory fee guidelines clearly unconstitutional in denying students freedom of speech and assembly, Mr. Strong are jl asserted. “We feel you decision is arbitrary and capricious,” he said, citing court decisions in support of his arguments. He said Dr. Lorenzetti had violated mandatory fee guidelines by not making inquiries into the activities planned for the April 28 demonstration, which he believed money which it collects. didn’t hear any language this to says that is be he told the educational,” students. Citing the resolution and news articles in The Spectrum which referred to the Albany excursion as a “demonstration,” he said his decision was purely adminstrative and non-political. Dr. Lorenzetti insisted that his decision was made without any outside pressure, stressing that the program of the is quality irrelevant if it does not fit the “I fee guidelines. But the students were clearly with the dissatisfied explanations, adminstrators’ which they felt obscured the political nature of the situation. “What you term political is part of our education,” said one angry mandatory student. Dr. urged Siggelkow the students to go to court on the matter as a challenge to the mandatory fee. According to the Attica support group, a student suit would come before Supreme Court Justice Carmen Ball, the supervising judge for all Attica were educational. fee Mandatory guidelines stipulate that funds can only be used for educational, social, cultural, or recreational activities. Richard another Bronson, support group member, said it was a basic question of who controls whose lives. “It’s our money coming out of our pockets and we have the right to say what that goes to.” Dr. Siggelkow, in his opening statement, reaffirmed to opposition any type Precedent Dr. Lorenzetti cited legal decisions which he said upheld opinion that the institution had the responsibility for spending cases. “If you’re approved requisitions for buses to the April 2 demonstration in front of Erie County (SA) Student Association from the State delegates University at Buffalo, are now permitted to drive state vehicles for official business purposes after losing this privilege during the campus unrest of the late sixties. The ruling was authorized by Edward Doty, vice president for Operations and Systems last December SA delegates lost the privilege state cars for business purposes .during the days of student activism when a number of cars were marked with paint or slightly damaged. Since then, many delegates have been forced to rely on their own cars for business, which according to SA President Michele Smith is “really hard on a student who can’t afford this kind of transportation.” This University arid the State University at Delhi were the only two SUNY institutions which didn’t provide transportation for their delegates. to use During the 1974 fall semester, members of the SA related their Courthouse. transportation problems to the Student Association of the State University (SASU). After being contacted by SASU, Clifford Thorn, from the Central Administration in Albany, then issued an order to administrators here which allowed students to use state vehicles to drive to SASU conferences Beware of truckers The Legal Aid Clinic has advised students who plan to contract with one of the student-run trucking services advertising on campus to fully investigate the company first. This advice was prompted by numerous complaints received by the Clinic and the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) charging Campus Transport, a company which operated last year, with poor service. Legal Aid’s David Richman and Bill Martin suggested ways students can protect their property when dealing with these companies. Labels, receipts ancf picking luggage quickly up will help avoid location mix-ups. Students should be aware that “one shot-deal” companies, like the ones that cater to students this time of year do not have to obtain a trucking license. Mr. Richman has urged companies operating under a title that does not include the owner’s name, like “Campus Movers-,” to file with the County, so that students can determine who is behind the firm. Inadequate insurance is another student complaint, according to Legal Aid. Bob Hasenstab of Burt Van Lines, an IRC endorsed company, suggested that students determine exactly how much their property is insured for and what the terms of their contract is before signing it. The Spectrum would like to extend wishes for a speedy recovery to Buffalo’s Associate Athletic director Ed Muto, who suffered a heart attack last Sunday, and is in the intensive care unit of Millard Fillmore hospital on Gates Circle in Buffalo. At press time his condition was listed as fair but guarded. Muto, a popular administrator and former basketball coach, started to feel chest pains while playing golf Sunday afternoon. He promptly went home, called his doctor and was sent to the hospital that night. Muto is in his mid-forties.

This entitles the EOC to elect its own UUP representatives and elect a member of UUP’s Executive Board. 465 EOC, located at Washington Street in Buffalo, is designed to help educationally disadvantaged students prepare for college. Instructor Nancy Barnes, who termed the center a “madhouse,” complained in a letter to The Spectrum that EOC teachers are required to be present in the building between 8:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. every working day, and can leave the building only for lunch. They must sign in and out of the building in addition to filling out the normal University time sheets, she said, adding that any request to leave early, even for medical appointments, must be submitted in writing to the assistant director’s office. EOC instructors have a teaching load of 20-25 hours per week, considerably higher than the 15-hour University average, she said. Ms. Barnes charged that the regular registration deadline was “non-existent” last semester, and explained that there were students in one of her classes which had a seating capacity of 30. Attrition rates at the center, which serve many older students, are very high, and Ms. Barnes claimed that too little effort is directed toward the problem. In addition to her teaching duties, Ms. Barnes is head of the EOC reading lab. She claimed that lab courses were constantly interrupted by an influx of new students who missed the early classes and need lessons repeated. Ineligible EOC faculty are ineligible for tenure or promotion because they CONCERT PRODUCTIONS INTERNATIONALPRESENT —Jensen ■PINK« FLOYD Nancy Barnes are officially “instructors.” Also many of the EOC teachers were hired as “temporaries” and can be dismissed at any time.

She’s a grandmother, she doesn’t like to tell her age, and she didn’t join the professional women’s bowling tour until her children were old enough to take care of themselves. Doris started bowling about 25 years ago for fun, “like any average housewife.” But after bowing for fun for about ten years, she began to get more serious about the game and started joining various classic leagues, composed of strong local bowlers. In 1968, she began practicing regularly for about an hour a day. She was thinking of going back to work for the telephone company, but her husband convinced her that she could make more money on the pro bowlers tour, so she joined the Professional Women’s Bowling Association (PWBA). I Doris Coburn, currently one of the best women bowlers on the pro tour, treated about 50 bowling enthusiasts Wednesday afternoon a clinic and to demonstration in Norton Hall Lanes.

Editor's - by Bruce Engel Several weeks ago two of our biggest issues blended together, when complaints arose that women were being inhibited from playing in the Bubble. (It was still called the Bubble then. We have since started referring to the temporary Amherst recreation facility as the Ketterpillar, the name that won in the Bubble contest.) by David J. Rubin Staff Writer Spectrum Pitching both good and bad made the difference at Peelle Field on Tuesday as the baseball Bulls split a doubleheader with Niagara. Buffalo lost the first game 8-6, but came back to take the nightcap 8-2. In the first game, the hosts rebounded from two one-run deficits and took a 6-2 lead going into the seventh and final inning. Starting Buffalo pitcher Both issues, recreation and women’s rights, are typical topics for a sports department that would more traditionally be concerned with the intracies of hockey and basketball, the latest scoop on who’s recruiting who and an occasional budget controversy. Yet both are issues of extreme importance and their mix is particularly fascinating. The Ketterpillar (why not make it retroactive) has been in the news since Recreation Director Bill Monkarsh and student government leaders began lobbying for it 17 months ago. The issue was as powerfully simple as a place for people to play during the cold Buffalo winter. It’s something that should have been planned for. I shouldn’t even have to write about it. But it wasn’t and I did, and let me tell you something else as vital a need as it is, for people like Monkarsh, Dwane Moore from Facilities Planning and SA’s Howard Schapiro, it was the hassle of their lives. — And that was just the beginning. Last fall, construction bids had to be solicited and contracts awarded, it was January 15 before the thing was up and March before it was functional. Then there were problems with the lighting, scattered complaints about the floor and backboards, uncertainty as to operating hours, trouble with tennis reservations, and finally the women’s night hassle. (Keep your shirts on feminists. I’ll be a good guy before this is through.) The Ketterpillar is not God’s gift to Buffalo by any means. It has problems and will continue to. All that it is and all that it was designed to be is better than nothing. Considering the alternative, it’s a pretty good deal. Keep complaining because that’s the only way it will improve, but keep that perspective too. No one should have expected a palace. This year for the first time Women’s Lib reached Buffalo’s athletic department. The women’s program made some well deserved big steps forward. I hired a female writer to concentrate on it, though eventually she dabbled in other things and a few of the guys wrote about women’s sports. We realize that women’s-teams are important; their contests have provided a lot of good copy. We have been sensitive to the fact that women should be eligible for Athlete of the Week - two women were so honored. We know that, for example, when Dave Hnath writes a feature about men that play more than one sport, there are women who do the same and Joy Clark is working on a followup. Similarly when we release, as we will soon, our selections of the University’s top scholar athlete list, there will be a women’s version too. It’s been so good that Dave Rubin, the worst sexist on the staff, wrote the story about Monica Winkel winning the horse race without so much as one —Santos John Buszka gave up a home run to shortstop Tim O’Leary to lead off the seventh. Following a double to designated hitter Joe Raffuel, Buszka threw two balls to second baseman Dan Sisto. Coach Bill Monkarsh decided it was time to call in a relief pitcher. No relief Don Salvatore was brought in to squelch the fire, but he pitched more like an arsonist. Salvatore walked Sisto and got Ed Warnke on a fly to center. The Bulls’ ace reliever then walked the next hitter ignored the men, and gone right on playing. Isn’t that what women’s lib is all about? Ejection! The big explosion, however, came in the last of the fifth. With runners at first and third, and one out, first baseman Bob Amico hit a ground ball to the right of second base. Sisto dropped it before stepping on second. However, shortstop O’Leary picked up the ball and fired to first to complete the double play attempt. Umpire Gary Neunder made no call at second, and signaled out at first. He then turned back to second and yelled “safe” to the amazement of pitcher John Rumschik. Runschik ran out toward Neunder and was immediately ejected from the game after using some choice words to describe Neunder’s officiating. The second game was not nearly as exciting as the first, as the Bulls scored six times in the first two innings. Buffalo hurler Mike Dean had little difficulty keeping Niagara at bay, throwing a four-hitter while going the distance for the third straight time. jmcArtsJdttxCtoutttee PRESENTS complaint. Still I’ve been called a sexist. That’s O.K. I’ve been called worse. What’s more, it’s probably right. But I’m changing. At least 1 like to think so. When the Ketterpillar starting operating, the recreation staff was concerned the few women were playing in it. The women complained that the men were inhibiting them. Joy did a story about it. A special women’s night was set up and if the growth of women’s athletics can be considered an athletic extension of women’s lib then women’s night is analagous to affirmative action. A good idea, this woman’s night, and a necessary one. But it’s a shame that men have to be excluded from this precious playing space when the women only half fill it, as they did the first two women’s nights. Of course, it’s the men’s own fault, those of them that sneered at, laughed at, harassed .or otherwise inhibited the women who were simply exercising their God-given right to play (life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness). But to an extent it was the women’s fault too. Wouldn’t it be better if they could have sneered back and said something like, “Up yours buddy. We have a right to play too.” Or they simply could have and threw two more balls to first baseman Kevin Gilman when Monkarsh decided he’d had enough. Monkarsh yanked Salvatore and brought on Mike Klym. Klym added more fuel to the fire by completing the walk to Gilman. After he threw two more balls to catcher Rich Horn, Monkarsh wasted no time in making it a three-alarm blaze, calling in his third reliever of the inning, Bill Casbolt. Still trailing by two runs, the Purple Eagles had the bases full, with only one out. Casbolt finished Klym’s job by walking Horn and thereby forcing the other run. Left-fielder Art Carlisie tapped to first, scoring the tying run, and Niagara took the lead when Casbolt threw a wild pitch. A single by centerfielder Tim McNamara gave the Eagles an insurance run and capped the six-run, three-hit rally. There were more fireworks in the first game previous to the stunning comeback by the Eagles. The Bulls capitalized on three Niagara miscues and a wild pitch for four runs in the sixth. Jim Zadora’s triple and Rick Wolstanholme’s double were the big blows in the Bull attack.

Ms. Cook testified in wade had recently lived in with other Attica defense workers at 48 St. Johns Place had been destroyed by fire. Cause has not yet been determined by fire investigators. In court yesterday, Ms. Cook said she was afraid she or her family would be killed because of her disclosure that she was an FBI informer. 16, defendants Dalou Asahi, Big Black, Charley Joe Bahati Kakawana (Bernard Pernasalice, and She also testified Sjroble), who is accused of that some of the notes she murdering inmates Kenneth Hess accumulated as an informer might arid Barry Schwartz. Shango has have been destroyed by the fire. Barbara Hanschu, Ms. Cook’s also been accused, along with Big lawyer, labeled the fire Black (Frank Smith), Herbert X Blyden, Eric Thompson and Roger Champen, of kidnapping the men after they gave a newsreporter information without permission during the 1971 prison uprising. Hess and Schwartz were found dead when police retook the prison. Presiding Judge Joseph S. Mattina had reserved decision on a defense request that the FBI be ordered to furnish the papers and notes that Ms. Cook gave them. He also denied a request that Ivan Makuch, another agent who Ms. Cook said she had lived with, be called to testify. Government misconduct The defense believes Ms. Cook’s testimony is evidence of government misconduct and constitutes grounds for the dismissal of all Attica indictments. Similar government misconduct led the dismissal of charges in the Ellsberg and Wounded Knee cases. Defense attorney William Kunstler has filed a motion to delay the April 28 sentencing of Dacajeweiah (John Hill) and Charley Joe Pemasalice so that a hearing may be held to determine if Ms. Cook penetrated and compromised the defense of the convicted men. Jay Shulman, a sociologist who worked on that case, has signed an affadavit stating that he has never seen a prosecution so accurately strike all the people the defense wanted on the jury. Ms. Cook began her testimony Monday morning unaware that the night before, the house she “mysterious and suspicious.” In testimony that was often broken by tears, Ms. Cook told the court that she gave extensive information about the defense’s Fair Jury Project, legal strategy, courtroom strategy, communication between lawyers and clients, specific information on the defendants and the internal structure of the Attica Brothers Legal Defense. Specific information She also testified that she gave the FBI the names of personal friends of the Attica defendants and phone numbers of people connected with the defense. Specific information was given on legal workers Joe Heath, Gene Fellner, Tom Buchanon, Hayward Burns, Sidney Harring and defendants Dalou Asahi, Bib Black, Charley Joe Pemasalice, and Dacajeweiah (John Hill). “I took the job because 1 thought it was honorable,” she said. “I believed what I had seen on TV about the FBI. I did not seriously believe that my government would ask me to do anything wrong.” Ms. Cook said she was contacted by the FBI through Mr. Makuch, who she was living with and who already was working for them. She had previously worked as a bank teller and had been a graduate English student at the State University at Buffalo. Ms. Cook said she took the FBI job because it was the first she had ever had that would challenge her abilities. “I was free to be myself and get paid for it. Do you —continued on Page 12— A request by Buffalo General Hospital to build a has $100 million facility on Rotary Field an confused situation complicated already surrounding the University’s affiliation agreements with area hospitals. Buffalo General sent President Robert Ketter the proposal several weeks ago, asking for a response from the State University of New York (SUNY) Central Administration within six months. Dr. Ketter forwarded the proposal to officials in Albany, urging them to “expedite a feasibility study within three months.” Meanwhile, discussions were taking place in Albany concerning demands by Erie Count/ officials for increased state allocations to E.J. Meyer Memorial Hospital, which has traditionally served as a teaching hospital for the University’s Medical School. Advantages for both SUNY Executive Vice Chancellor James Kelly indicated at a meeting in Albany last Thursday that the Medical School would require the University would retain its affiliations. The University source had stated that the new hospital “could cut into the commitment to Meyer.” In either case, before the facility could be built, plans would have to go to the regional Hospital Planning Council, Dr. Kelly said, which is why the proposal has not yet “been explored in depth,” But a Buffalo General spokesman said that the hospital would not finalize any plans to build the $100 million project unless there is a “positive response” from the University. Both standpoints Additionally, Dr. Kelly was unsure whether he support the project because he was not familiar with the surrounding community and local patient needs. He admitted, however, that there would be “some advantage” for the Medical School if Buffalo General builds the facility, but “we can’t look at it merely from our standpoint.” Buffalo General is planning to foot the $100 million construction bill, but it would cost State would State University was unhappy with the County’s requests and that “If we couldn’t work out suitable arrangements, we’d seek out other ones.” The Courier-Express reported last Friday that County Executive Edward Regan felt Dr. Kelly’s constituted “It’s just statements a threat. unthinkable that this relationship [between the Medical School and Erie County’s Hospital facilities) would be disrupted,” Mr. Regan said. Dr. Kelly told The Spectrum Monday that no one was being threatened, especially since advantages for both the Medical School and the affiliated hospitals result from a close relationship. The school is affiliated with Buffalo General, Meyer, and Children’s Hospital. Current state funding proposals for~Buffalo General and Children’s are considered acceptable by the County. Aside from a written agreement that the University pay a portion of some physicians’ salaries, there is no official arrangement that obligates State University to pay the County anything more. Cost overrun SUNY has offered the County a total million a year for 30 years as payment Medical School’s use of the County’s This facilities. would specifically of $2.4 for the hospital exclude reimbursements for operating costs. However, when the costs of a new County hospital being planned for construction next to Meyer skyrocketed, County officials asked the state for additional funds that would bring the total to upwards of $4 million yearly, according to a highly-placed University official here. The cost overrun was partially due to the County’s decision not to consult the University when plans for the new facility were being drawn up, the source emphasized. The real issue, he explained, was just how much money are Erie County residents paying to build the hospital. The spokesman also explained that State University’s Upstate and Downstate Medical Centers receive about $9 million in operating expenses from SUNY. This has been cited by Erie County as a reason to give the County hospitals more money. ‘Pandora’s box’ But Dr. Kelly said that type of reasoning would open a “Pandora’s box” because it is difficult to assign a dollar amount to programs in the affiliated hospitals. $2.4 million affiliation agreement that has proposed would not establish any dangerous precedents, but “would be a unique arrangement in Buffalo,” especially since the County is planning to build new facilities, Dr. Kelly said. Although some observers believe a Buffalo General facility would lessen the need for the other The SUNY I I ( University about $25 million for expenses associated with the project. Donald Larson, associate Vice President for Health Sciences here, supports the Buffalo General proposal, believing it will not affect the affiliation arrangements “as far as I know.” He explained that the County is asking for funds via two different channels. One he called “dedicated University space for faculty,” and the other support for operating expenses. Mr. Regan’s office has asked for $6,672,500 annually for operating costs. Different figures Although State University is willing to pay for space used by the Medical School, requests for funding a percentage of hospital operating costs have met stiff opposition. Medical Schools across the country usually do not reimburse affiliated hospitals for operating expenses. In addition to the County’s requests for additional affiliations funds, Mr, Regan’s office and the Democrats who control the County legislature have each arrived at different figures for what the state should pay. The County legislature has asked for $1,932,000 a year while the county administration requested $1,173,700. The State has offered $1.8 million plus $600,000 in maintenance funds, according to the University source. �Hebrew University • The State University College at Oneonta announces a 1975 academic program in Israel at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Haifa University and Bar Ilan University.

Student Association (SA) He indicated that most other President Michelle Smith charged SUNY campuses were “also” Monday. Ms. Smith said students are receiving little or no information on the budget, except what they read in the papers. If students don’t know anything about the budget, they cannot be relied upon to support it when it comes up for approval before the State Legislature, she asserted. Thusfar, the only student input here into the current budget request has been former SA President Frank Jackalone’s and former GSA President Tony Schamel’s attendance at the consulting widely in developing their annual budget. ‘Essential’ “During the past several years, the process of budget building in the State University has enormously improved as consultation has increased,” he said. Not only was insuring wide participation “essential,” but it helped people work together to interpret and promote the budget later on, Dr. Boyer explained.

Because students are a constituency with the University, “they should intimately be involved in University governance, which budget making is part of,” she said. Participation hindered President Robert Ketter said in a telephone interview yesterday that student representatives had participated in budget committee meetings where their suggestions on which programs should be supported were welcomed. But Mr. Jackalone maintained that he had only been invited to one meeting. This was the extent of student particpation, he asserted. Dr. Ketter said student participation this year had been hindered by a ruling from the State Division of the Budget which limited to five the number of people a campus could invite to its budget hearing in Albany. The five people were each named by the Division of the Budget beforehand, Dr. Ketter reported. He said that in past years he has invited many campus representatvies to the hearing, in Albany, including the three student government presidents (SA.GSA, MFCSA).

I hope very much the matter can be worked out locally.” GSA President Terry DiFilippo and Millard Fillmore College Student Association President Phyllis Schaffner, along with Ms. Smith, requested in a letter to Dr. Ketter dated March 28 that “several students be involved in the discussions preceding decisions regarding the supplemental budget requests, perhaps along the lines promised to the Faculty Senate Executive Committee at its meeting on March 19.” Dr. Ketter has, assured members of the Faculty Senate that their input would be solicited if the University was forced into a retrenchment situation where faculty had to be dismissed.

David Chavis, a member of the Attica Support Group,, said Ms. Smith “feels she is way above accountability to students ... and that her judgement is more valid” than the Student Assembly’s. Of SA’s four SASU representatives, Frank Jackalone and Neil Seiden abstained from the adjournment vote. Melanie Burger and Janis Garver voted against the adjournment motion. Chavis believes Mr. Mr. Jackalone’s and Mr. Seiden’s abstentions were out of line with the Assembly’s intent. But Mr. Jackalone explained that by the time the Attica motion was ready to be discussed, half the people remaining at the meeting were from Buffalo and for him to vote to continue the meeting would be “forcing” the issue on the SASU body. If the motion to adjourn had failed, he continued, there would have probably been further discussion about Affirmative Action, not Attica, anyway. “The effect they would have had at that point would have been little,” he said.

The announcement madfe in a windy outdoor press conference at the Park marked the beginning of a 60-day waiting period during which the Federal Environmental Protection Agency (CEPA) or the State Department of Environmental Conservation may join the suit before it is filed in U.S. District Court. The governments and agencies to be named are accused of violating standards set by the Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972. “The purpose of our suit is to restore a major water recreational resource for Buffalo, which was designed to be the key to the City’s urban parks system,” Mr. Hoyt said. The former Delaware District Councilman expects the Court to direct the defendants to take immediate steps to clear up the pollution. Mr. Hoyt charged the Town of Cheektowaga’s Sewage Treatment Plant No. 5 with dumping raw sewage into the lake at the rate of more than 10 million gallons a day. “Delaware Park Lake is literally an open sewer,” he said. — — Lake a sewer Besides discharging this pollution and surface debris into the lake, Mr. Hoyt stated that the Town of Cheektowaga has failed to live up to a 1930 agreement it' made with the City of Buffalo. The City authorized the Town of Cheektowaga and Erie County to enter City property to extend the Scajaquada Creek drain from the City line to a point 200 feet east of the Cheektowaga toyvn line. Thus, water from the drain flowed into Delaware Park Lake. In return, Mr. Hoyt explained, the Town of Cheektowaga was supposed to place trash grids over the drain entrance to collect the trash and debris that floated downstream. “The Town never complied with this agreement.” he said. Once the tunnel was extended into Cheektowaga, the City could no longer control the debris, and the Town of Cheektowaga seemed “quite willing to allow the debris to float on downstream to the City.” According to a statement released by the Sierra Club, 24 of Buffalo’s sewage and storm pipelines empty into the •-drain. It also claimed a large sewer drain, designed to intercept debris and filter out pollution, is ineffective. Responsibility “I’ve seen everything that can float come through that drain,” Mr. Hoyt added. He said that none of the refuse would be able to enter the lake if the Town of Cheektowaga “acted responsibly” and erected the promised trash grids. “With nearly 20 million gallons of storm runoff and raw sewage geing deposited into the creek and lake each year,” Mr. Hoyt asserted, “the lake it too polluted for any recreational value.” The Sierra Club’s statement claimed that over the past several decades, more than a dozen reports have been compiled concerning the condition of the lake, costing the taxpayers of Buffalo and Erie County over three quarters of a million dollars in research. All of the studies returned results highly critical of the lake’s deterioration and offered various plans to help. The suggestions were never implemented, and Mr. Hoyt contended that “the reports are merely gathering dust on the shelves of government agencies.” Optimism shown Mr. Hoyt is optimistic that if the federal court hands down a favorable -verdict, “the lake will be reutnred to the point it once was for area residents to use for swimming, boating, and other recreational purposes.” The estimated cost of the suit is $14,000 which, according to the Assemblyman, will have to be raised publicly. He does not feel his suit will impose excessive financial demands on the governments and agencies involved, sincesfunds specifically appropriated by Congress for water pollution projects and impounded by former President Richard Nixon were recently .released. Also, New York States funds from the 1972 Environmental Bond Issue arestill available. Thesiegislator noted that Mayor Stanley Makowski has declared the restoration of Delaware Park Lake the City of Buffalo’s official Bicentennial project. NeuJ • • : ; : : difference!!!

Although she doesn’t consider herself a feminist or a women’s lib advocate, Ms. Fenderson was extremely pleased with her appointment and considers it an important breakthrough for the female custodial staff here. “Being the first, I know I’ll be a model, an example everyone is going to watch,” she said, “but I’m confident of my ability to do the work.” Ms. Fenderson said her job (which represents a pay increase of about $700 a year) entails more “leadership” than her former position. She was selected from a field of twelve men and six women; several of the women applied for the spot only after learning of Ms. Fenderson’s decision to do so.

Dellums called the Mr. President’s address “a 25-year-old Cold War speech,” which “had nothing to do with the role the United States should be playing in out to the young,” of help, he the bomber flies fast, but do we need it?

Bullets before rice Terming Mr. Ford’s ideas and “ludicrous” “almost uncivilized,” Dellums Mr. suggested that the President could be made to “stop swinging a golf club only long enough to hold refugee children in his arms.” Criticizing the military for its role in unusually large determining foreign policy, Rep. Dellums said, “We live in a nation that would rather put a bullet in the outstretched hand of a Cambodian child than put rice in his bowl.” “We can no longer be the gunrunner of the world,” he explained, stressing that the nation’s main responsibility in the world is to distribute human resources: “We don’t have to export democracy on a bayonet.” While Congress has been asked to approve a $104.7 billion 1976, for military budget one-third of the U.S. population is and illiterate, functionally millions of Americans cannot afford to eat decently, Mr, Dellums protested. ‘Bare-bones’ In recent hearings before the Services House Armed Committee, Defense Secretary James Schlesinger claimed that the $104.7 billion represented a “bare-bones budget,” In a cross-examination, Mr. Dellums, also a member of a select committee intelligence to investigate the gathering operations The chain of publicly-owned betting shops is now showing a steady profit, after eight months in the red, according to Gail Rourke, office manager of OTB headquarters in Batavia. of the CIA and FBI, learned that 42,000 American troops are allegedly backing up the 600,000-man South Korean Army The “handle,” or amount of money wagered, against 325,000 North Korean has been increasing each week, and passed the soldiers.

Commentar SASU —Affirmative Action The women’s basic political differences camy by Brian Land Staff Writer Spectrum Somehow, the words “heated CANTON dissension” and “strong arguments” that Special Features Editor Clem Colucci used to describe the chaotic mess of the Student Association of the State New University of York (SASU) weekend conference seem totally inadequate. SASU, in the — most halting and lame manner, struggled through an acrimonious seven-hour debate Sunday night over an Affirmative Action resolution from which all parties emerged as losers. Third World Caucus members were concerned with the need for more information about SASU’s internal workings because only three Third World voting delegates were present. However, Affirmative Action meant more than obtaining ten delegate seats or obtaining staff positions as a by-product. The ultimate aim of Caucus members was to build a viable minority student network throughout the state that would support each member school’s struggles. Implementation of the Affirmative Action guidelines and organizing against Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) cutbacks through political action were two key issues discussed. Subcommittee The lengthy debate produced a proposal for the creation of a Third World Caucus recognized by SASU. It would take the format of a subcommittee elected from representatives of all 28 SASU member schools that would have ten delegate votes, the Caucus chairman to serve on the Executive Committee. Additionally, the Caucus called for a freeze on hiring of SASU staff until two minorities are hired. Meanwhile, the Women’s Caucus had met to devise its plan, delaying a joint session with the Third World Caucus until early Saturday evening. The plan was as far-reaching as it was controversial, calling for every student association to produce a model Affirmative Action progr for women and minorities. Also included were strict guidelines for delegate election procedures, the creation of two Executive Committee Affirmative Action Officers and Affirmative Action guidelines for hiring of staff. The Women’s Caucus also sought ten delegate seats while supporting a similar request by the Third World Caucus. Question of strategy Although both sides had backed each other at the outset, a question of strategy arose. After Third World Caucus members made it clear that they were unwilling to settle for anything less than 100 percent capitulation by SASU, some women objected. Larry Williams of the State University at Buffalo’s Black Student Union felt that the all-white Women’s Caucus would desert minority students, as some women delegates did in the end. Other Third World Caucus members, apparently feeling the same way, left during the argument. out in a statement that they would speak only on minority proposals that they supported while remaining silent on any others. Finally, Keltic McCormick, joined by Lauren Stern of the Women’s Caucus, decided that “it’s time for white women to walk out on black men.” Unity Peace was restored during the late evening session through strong leadership. Mr. Williams pointed out that the delegates were aware of the dissension and warned against presenting two separate resolutions. Representatives of both caucuses sat down and worked out a joint resolution within an hour for which everyone agreed to struggle. And yet, almost from the second that delegate Chris Sprowal of Old Westbury introduced the resolution. Affirmative Action was doomed. The spirit behind the letter of Affirmative Action that “SASU opposes racism and sexism” was buried immediately beneath a hail of hypothetical questions, parliamentary procedure, “reverse racism” and amendments which the Caucuses were helpless to oppose. Robin Braunstein of Oswego, Ken Wax of Albany State, Bill Gorden of Binghamton and Phil Dorsey of Oswego played major roles in the obstruction, Mr. Dorsey began the series of debilitating and frustrating quorum counts which Ms. Braunstein continued with full force, exhausting the delegate assembly. Opposing amendments Several reactionary amendments directly reversing the Affirmative Action efforts were proposed by Albany State delegates, who sounded the cries of “qualified candidates” and “reverse racism.” Possibly the most destructive act was by SASU Legislative Director Ray Glass, who appeared during the debate with a “substitute resolution” which angered and hurt many members of the Affirmative Action team, myself included. We took his uncalled for papers and ripped them up in an angry outburst. We asked ourselves, what right did he have to do this without our knowledge or agreement as one who had not been a party to the discussions that produced “the Affirmative Action Committee. Lastly, we wondered, why did his document offer money and no mechanism for voting? Without gaining a voice, everything else would be worthless. To add greater insult, much of Mr, Glass’ document was approved, despite abstentions by Affirmative Action delegates. Only two other portions of the resolution were passed realtively unharmed, with little or no opposition. The real controversy lies ahead in the battle over 20 new Affirmative Action delegates. To expect justice under such conditions, I believe, is asking to superstition. Wednesday, 23 April 1975 . The Spectrum Page five . * �Innovative biological center wiH close for lack of funding The center for Theoretical Biology at the Ridge Lea campus will soon be closing, The Spectrum has learned. Support lines provided for the facility’s operation will be discontinued at the end of June, according to Frederick Rosen, the Center’s acting 1 � director. The Center, which Dr. Rosen called “the most prestigious scientific activity on this campus,” attracted a number of sizable research grants. He explained that the facility’s research deals with the connection of biological concepts to other disciplines. “It’s sort of neutral ground where members of different faculties can interact without departmental rivalries, in whatever areas they are interested in,” he explained. He contended that this research will be “of crucial interest in the near future,” citing projects investigating morphigenesis (how the human body and its limbs form from a symetrical, single cell) and how bacteria from outer space behave in the earth’s atmosphere. ' Future shock The founders of the Center, in 1968, realized the importance this research would have in the future, Dr. Rosen said. At that time, the University had just joined the SUNY system, and it was hoped that by the mid-1970’s it would be equal in prestige to any other in the United States. “Instant Berkley,” he said. Knowing that the State University at Buffalo would be in no position to compete in the “established areas,” interdisciplinary projects, such as the Center For Theoretical Biology, were begun. But from its inception, the Center suffered from “administrative instability” and lack of sufficient funds, Dr. Rosen said. “We had five or six deans in one year,” he exclaimed. “Also, those were the years of student unrest, which didn’t help our stability problems any.” By 1969-70, the Center began to attract research grants for long-term projects. “But we weren’t a department,” Dr. Rosen said. “Our personnel had to come through other departments, appointed by them, not us.” Continuity some “We needed some kind of continuity we knew would be around for people long-term projects. So, we asked the administration for a few faculty lines, to be able to make a few appointments on our own,” Dr. Rosen noted. 'He said this action “made the Center conspicuous by asking for something,” and thus, upset the Administration. However, Executive Vice President Albert Somit called it, “asking for support which could pot be provided.” “Dr. Danelli (the Center’s director) said if the Center would not be adequately supported, it should be closed down. So, we have no choice,” Dr. Somit concluded. Dr. Somit cited Dr. Danelli’s departure from the Center to accept the deanship of the Worchester Medical School as another reason for the Center’s closing. “It just wouldn’t be the same without him,” he lamented. However, according to Dr. Rosen and other spokespersons for the Center, if the Center wasn’t closing, Dr. Danelli would not be leaving. “The University is in a position to lose a great deal,” Dr. Rosen asserted. He pointed out that several internationally known journals in biological research have their offices at the Center, and the Center itself is internationally known, possibly the only one of its kind in the United States. “If an innovative program like ours is to survive it will require some innovativeness on the part of the Administration as well,” Dr; Rosen observed. — Tonight at 8:30 p.m. in the Century Theater, the UUAB Music Com'mittee very proudly presents the very Electric Hot Tuna.

Rumor has it that a rhythm guitarist has joined Tuna for this tour. If this is indeed a fact, it will provide an added dimension to the group’s sound, once again freeing Jorma to fly to the outer limits of his guitar’s fretboard.

Currently, 5 58 90 percent of the bottles used in New York are non-refillable. If the Cooperman Bill is enforced, the state’s annual consumption of beverage containers would drop from 5.5 billion to 1.6 billion. This would save glass, steel, and aluminum. Litter bits Nationwide, beverage containers account for seven percent of municipal wastes. HEP and NYRC reason that if consumers stand to lose money from discarding empty bottles, they will be more inclined to return them. Returnable containers generally decrease water pollution, according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency. A drop in the total number of containers would affect the employment of approximately 1200 workers. However, due to the “labor intensive nature” of refillable bottle operations, 5200 jobs would open up, according to the Senate Task Force report. A net increase of 4000 jobs would result. The Task Force also claims there would be little or no change in the cost ofbeer and soft drinks, and tax revenues from beverage sales would remain the same. Diminished cost of manufacturing bottles and cans would save state consumers at least $40 million annually. canners would close or suffer from severe cash flow problems. Energy savings would be equivalent to about five percent of the state’s total energy consumption, or about 20 trillion BTU’s (British Thermal Units). The Cooperman Bill is now being discussed in the Senate and voted on in the Assembly. HEP expects strong opposition, even though the Senate version is being sponsored by 11 people, including Senate Chairman Warren Anderson and the Assembly bill has 55 co-sponsors. The bills are also supported by NYPIRG and CAC. They urge supporters to send letters and telegrams to the legislature.

I destroyed monitor into people's lives. That's 1984 people's rights to privacy and free assembly." —FBI informant Mary Jo Cook in sworn testimony ... ... "The witness has come in and said nothing for two days." Cryan —Prosecutor Francis So Mr. Cryan was not very moved by Mary Jo Cook's testimony, under oath, that she gave the FBI extensive information about private communications between lawyers and clients, the Fair Jury protect, overall legal strategy and the internal workings of the Attica Brothers Legal Defense. One wonders these days if anyone who represents the State of New York is capable of being moved by anything especially a carefully-documented account of how the system they personify is again being abused. Perhaps the ease with which Mr. Cryan shrugs off such occurences is an indication of how invastion of privacy and other atrocities have become the norm, how they do not pervert the justice system but are consistent with everything it stands for. From the moment the uprising at Attica began right up to Mary Jo Cook's testimony in Court yesterday, the powers-that-be have been guilty of what psychologists have come to call selective perception, refusing to see anything they do not choose to see. Any event or piece of information that did not gel with their preconceived notions of law and order became the same "nothing” that Mr. Cryan has spoken of. So when the inmates stormed through Attica Prison and demanded to be treated with a little dignity, the question immediately asked by authorities was not "Why?" but "How dare they?" When the special Attica prosecutor heard evidence that state troopers and correction officers may have commited crimes during the retaking of Attica, he refused to allow witnesses to be called, and did not follow obvious leads because he was incapable of even speculating that his colleagues could do wrong. Finally, when William Kunstler and Ramsay Clark skillfully discredited the testimony of several prosecution witnesses, the jury was listening, but could not hear a word; voting for acquittal was out of the question for people *whose understanding could never transcend stereotypes about prison inmates and law and order. But Ms. Cook's admission that she sent as many as 40 reports about the Attica Defense to the FBI, coupled with the investigation that has arisen from charges that crimes by prison officials and correction officers were covered up, could reveal some indisputable facts, facts which cannot be distorted by social bias. To aid the investigation. Judge Joseph Mattina should immediately order the FBI to furnish the papers and notes that Ms. Cook gave them, as the defense has requested. If these latest attempts to find the truth fail, the possibility that there were other informants in the Attica defense must still be investigated, perhaps by some private organization that will not be bound by the constraints of perception that have allowed the Governor, Attorney General and other so-called agencies of the law to look the other way until pressed to find answers. — The Spectrum Wednesday, 23 April 1975 81 Vol. 25, No. Editor-in-Chief Larry Kraftowitz — Amy Ounkin Managing Editor Michael O'Neill Managing Editor Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Business Manager Neil Collins - - — — City Composition .

Wednesday 23 April 1975 , Went to see “A Woman Under the Influence” last Saturday afternoon at the Kensington Theater. Now there is an incomparable way to spoil an afternoon. It is an awful movie, a terrible movie; an experience with my own anxieties that I would much rather have avoided, that is. I have mentioned before that I wince when someone does something embarrassing to themselves. I kept groaning at the way people were treating the woman who plays the lead whose natne I have managed to repress, she made me that uncomfortable. Peter Falk plays the woman’s husband in as explicit a performance of how to fuck up another human being by not noticing where either you, or they, are, as I ever care to see. Its a wonderful job of acting but .. . shudder. One way of talking about the whole thing that makes me more comfortable is to intellectualize it. Back before R.D. Laing went over to the radical left of what might generally be called psychology, he did a lot of work about what he called the schizogenic family. His basic idea was that the family structure generally had a great deal to do with how your particular mental quirks were formed and expressed. As an example he has a wonderful story about the young woman who thought she was a tennis ball. Not just any tennis ball, but one being used in the by Slwse mixed doubles final at center court Wimbleton. (If you Ipok this up and find out I am exaggerating, my apologies. 1 have this habit of trying to improve on everything!) Which seems clearly to be odd; a tennis ball, after all, is a bit much to expect us to accept. Until Laing discovers that the young lady in question lives with her mother and father; and her mother’s father, and her father’s mother. In addition, meals are* conducted in a fashion in which, for example, her mother will tell her to tell her father to pass the salt. The dutiful daughter says “Mother says to pass the salt.” Father says “tell your mother to get it herself,” and so on. Outside of this being one of the most clear possible demonstrations about why dutifulness should be abolished, it also shows that this lady perceiving herself as a tennis ball being shuttled back and forth is not so absurd. “A Woman Under the Influence” is about a lady who does not have it all together and is painfully aware of it. She would like nothing better than a little structure to hide from the world in. Her kids see her as “pretty and smart and nervous,” and she is. (The three kids are incredibly believable and fine). But what she gets from her husband is absolutely infuriating or terrifying. Depending on which way you swing. Repeatedly he yells at her. and then tells her he did nothing wrong, gets scared when she starts to act in anyway that does not fit within his limited framework, and tries to get the kids to fall into the same pattern. I am not sure out of what my anxiety tended to pour. I have this uncomfortable feeling that what I have always thought was taste specifically, for only being around people who were at least basically in touch with themselves, and fundamentally straight with themselves and with other people may not be a taste at all, but raw necessity. The discomfort has - The grump to do with what needing such straightness means about my ability to endure in a world where it is a luxury. To digress briefly, but pertinently, the two short films in the Conference Theatre last Thursday and Friday were both excellent. Antonia and I.F. Stone’s Weekly were similar in the respect of being documentaries about maverick individuals. She is a conductor who began in the 30’s and comes across as a wonderfully strong and vital person. He is an oddball reporter who had been blacklisted by the 1950’s for being a liberal and started his own small weekly in which he outlined with uncomfortable the unfortunate realities behind accuracy government. The pertinent part in his comment was that he generally concludes that all governments are run by liars, and that you are safer not believing anything they say. As a bried .example, to go with the brief digression, I was watching the news last weekend after Phnom Penh had fallen. The newscaster, as 1 recall it, read two items back to back that dealt with A) the bad feelings the U.S. Government had about the fall of Cambodia and the sorrow for her people the sorrow part may be wistful thinking but since it had happened we were B) diverting 100,000 tons of rice that had been on their way to Cambodia to feed people, to Vietnam to feed refugees. It is hoped that it arrives there in time, else we may have to dump it in the Pacific to make sure the red horde doesn’t eat any. The folks in Cambodia stopped needing to eat because the wrong side won? So here I sit perhaps needing some strange things such as honesty and straightness at least a moderate proportion of the time to keep my head more or less in line. Living in this culture at this time does not, in fact, seem to be the best place in history to expect to get such needs met. In A Woman Under the Infulence there is one scene between the woman, her husband, his mother, and the fanfily doctor, in which it becomes clear that everybody is crazy, that they are all behaving inappropriately, and that to single her out as being the only person with problems is ridiculous! Most of the time I manage to keep things in pretty decent control. Being compulsive does have its uses, it allows one to spend so much time ordering the world that one does not notice it (the world) ar\y more than necessary. By somehow examining the parts of my psyche that run on their own idiosyncratic logic I have learned when it is all right to risk being odd, or at least with whom one talks about what, and when it is not wise to voice certain views, political, moral, or more generally of reality. - - , - - - Laing talks at some point of his standards for getting people out of institutions. If they can learn what behaviors will get them back in, and not to do them, they are functioning well enough. Which seems emminently reasonable in a world that realistically is beyond, our individual control, and where coping is a demand, not a request. Now if we would just get the right group together to control everything... Happy spring. 1 hope it is a gloriously warm and springy day when this appears. Some realities without people are fine. Pax. �Containing nuclear waste To the Editor. The questions surrounding the Nuclear Power Industry are of much seriousness to many of us. Since nuclear scientists are split on answers to these questions, our role as citizens in these times is to view the industry as objectively and factually as possible. Spectrum The article entitled “Organizations Protest Nuclear Fission Activity at Fuel Plant" displayed the newsworthy effort to report on this crucial issue, but failed to be factual. It’s true that many citizens’ groups oppose use of nuclear power but the Atomic Energy Commission is not one of these groups. The AEC, now split into the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the National Resources Defense Council, is the federal mother of the nuclear industry. They are the last to oppose NFS The Getty-owned facility, which did indeed recycle uranium fuel rods for the 56 reactors around the country. This reprocessing is not the fission reaction that goes on at a nuclear — reactor. There are fears that radioactive materials, while being transported, will be subject to hijackings and/or accidents. This is a grounded, sensible not solely objection to the entire nuclear industry NFS. It is also true as cited that exposure to high - amounts of radiation can and will cause cancerous growths. High level exposure to radioactive materials should be avoided throughout the industry. If proper monitoring equipment and complete awareness of worker safety and habits is initiated, this will serve to reduce the chances of exposure. As long as recycling of fuel rods is generating plutonium and the rest of the nuclear fuel cycle is generating other toxic by-products, the true test of the industry’s value lies in the questions surrounding containment of these wastes. This is the major flaw in the industry. They have not yet shown us that they can inactivate or store effectively the wastes that they generate. Keith Parsky (NYPIRG) Not a NYPIRG report To the Editor: This is ig regard to The Spectrum article of Monday, April 14, 1975, (p.3); “Study Questions Site Selection for New Campus.” The study referred to in this article was a project undertaken by Ms. Lani Coelho and Ms. Mallory Perlbinder as an assignment in a Public Interest Research Course taught by Richard Sokolow and myself. The project was never approved by the NYPIRG State Board and is therefore not a NYPIRG report. While we support the right of these students to hold their opinion on the Amherst site selection, it is not the opinion of NYPIRG and should not be so construed. Kathleen A.

Prove it To the Editor In Monday’s The Spectrum , Dan Kohane, SASU President, said, “If we wanted to win a referendum on the Buffalo campus, we could.” I think he’s full To the Editor. Paul Kriebehl’s article, “Rebels Enter Phnom Penh,” contained several falsifications which should It’s common knowledge that the so-called PLA is simply a puppet of Hanoi. It’s role is the coercion and control of the populace of the South after the more militarily sophisticated NVA had captured the area. To the Editor To the members of the SA and the students of the University: Politics is a dirty game of unkept promises. WE, the students, placed our trust with representatives to the SA just as we placed our trust in senators and congressmen. Unfortunately, WE, who call for the restructure of the U.S. government fail to continue our pleas closer to home. Ask yourself Were you - really represented at the SA meeting when SI300 was allocated for the Albany rally? Would that same SA allot $1300 for buses if students wanted to go to Chicago to see the Sabres or perhaps, to attend a checkers match in East Jahungaland. Approximately two percent of the University demonstrated only six miles away at the trial. If there is such a lack of interest so close to home, why the hell are we allotting so much for so few? Before you Attica disciples call me an asshole, let me say that I don’t agree with the sociological elements that makes criminals out of people. But I do believe that, of one’s interest was intense enough, one would find a way to get there without wasting MY money. Students, we have been fucked again! him to get his ass down here to A rthur J. Lalonde Jr. A Student Lip service to propoganda be corrected. Wasting my money of shit. 1 challenge Buffalo and try it. It is surprising that anybody would pay lip service to the propoganda releases of the Giai Phong Press Agency, an organization famous for its expertise in the arts of prevarication and deceit. Will the Giai Phong release the accumulating reports by refugees of Communist butchery in “liberated” areas? Refugees weren’t forced to flee by ARVN troops, as Kriebehl believingly asserts. They fled because they well knew the terror that awaited them under the PRG. An example of this is the verified extermination of over 300 in Ban Me Thuit in the past week. Kriebehl is deluded into believing “gunners from the People’s Liberation Army” of the PRG are the ones who are besieging Saigon. First, I seriously doubt that any PLA soldier has the mental capability or mechanical skill to operate a piece of artillery. Secondly, it is a readily verifiable fact that the besieging force before Saigon is composed of ten North Vietnamese regular army divisions, there in violation of the farcial Paris Peace Agreement. I rest my case. T. Kailbourn Factual errors about nuclear energy To the Editor. In the article entitled “Organizations Protest Nuclear Fission Activity at Fuel Plant” that was in the April 21 edition, there were many errors concerning the issues surrounding Nuclear Fuel Services. The most important of the errors are the following: 1. There is no fission activity at toxicity of the plutonium should not be discounted. 3. NFS does not expose the tributaries of Lake Erie constantly. It is the potential danger that worries environmentalists. 4. The Atomic Energy Commission does not oppose the expansion of NFS. The AEC now the NRC, is the Federal Agency that will decide the future of the plant via the mechanism of public hearings. a nuclear reprocessing facility. 2. Plutonium may not be distributed as evenly as the article suggests. Thereby, the numbers of deaths resulting from exposure may be high but the Nuclear power is a controversial issue without the use of wrong information.

The first-term legislatore has introduced legislation that would make it legal* to broadcast PSC hearings.

One of the most vocal critics has been George Levine, of Telephone the American Consumers Council and an advisor Law violation Mr. Levine claimed that the present Chairman was on the throughout the state. When a utility requests a rate it must provide increase, information and background recommendation. The parties may then file reply briefs with the Commission, which prepares its own decision and how it explains has determined the utility’s revenue needs and rate structure. Requests for a rehearing, which are usually denied, must be made before a dissatisfied party can take the case to court. The court may nullify a PSC ruling, but it cannot determine what the rate should be. Nullifications usually are granted if the Commission has not considered the newest evidence. The PSC has had its share of critics in the State Legislature. Sen. Joseph A. Tauriello (D., Buffalo) recently introduced a bill to abolish the PSC Commission and have the legislature to regulate utilities. Consumers Council of Western New York. He said recently that “the problem with the PSC is that it is now in violation of the law because Kahn was appointed to his position by Malcolm Wilson while he was still working as a consultant to AT&T.” Five commissioners The PSC is headed by five appointed commissioners and it employs 630 people, one-half of them in professional or technical positions.

(NYPIRG), “If you have reason to believe your utility bill may be in error, you are entitled by law to register a complaint with the company and to appeal it if necessary through the PSC.” The initial complaint to the utility company may be made in person, by phone, or in writing. The consumer should: always note the name and title of the company who representative complaint; be handles the prepared to provide the company with all essential information relevant to the complaint; keep a careful record of meetings or conversations with company agents, including date, time, the names of those present; and, when documents, keep copies for personal records. mailing Compain to PSC Upon receipt of the complaint, the utility will investigate the claim and issue a “determination” of its findings, a process that often takes several months.

Kahn has been the center of controversy since his appointment last year by then-Governor Malcolm Wilson. An economist who taught at Cornell University for 27 years and was dean of the College of Arts and Sciences there at the time of his nomination to the PSC, Mr. Kahn has been criticized for working as an advisor to AT&T, the parent company of New York Telephone. $51,150 annual salary Mr. Kahn, whose term expires in 1980, receives $51,150 a year plus $25 a day for time spent on official business. Like the chairman, all four are all appointees of past Republican administrations. , Mr. Kahn, a liberal Democrat, has a six-year term on the PSC but serves as chairman at the pleasure of the governor. Commissioner Alan J. Roth’s term expired last February 1, but he is expected to serve until replaced or reappointed. A resident of the Albany area, he is a career regulator, having worked as counsel to the Federal Power Commission for 12 years. He previously was an assistant to former Chairman Raymond Swidler. Mr. Roth and Harold A. Jerry, Jr. are the two PSC members most observers consider to be least sympathetic to the utilities. Mrs. Marr, a black lawyer from Brooklyn, joined the Commission in 1971. She previously served on the State Underground cables Mr. Jerry, whose term ends in 1979, served in the Human Rights Appeals Board and as a member of the U.S. delegation to the United Nations. Her term concludes in 1979. State Senate from 1959 to 1962. A Republican, he headed the State Office of Regional Planning in the early 1960’s. He has a reputation as an environmentalist.

Ms. Cook said she received a maximum of S300 a month for her information and she made a maximum of forty reports a month to Mr. Lash.

As she found herself becoming committed to the Attica cause, Ms. Cook said she began to pass the defense any information she received without revealing that she was an undercover agent. She said she became apprehensive of the FBI when she learned that another FBI agent had been sent from Albany to infiltrate the defense.

Immediately before resting his case, Mr. Cryan told the court, “The witness has come in and said nothing for two days.” A subpoena has been issued for the testimony of FBI informant Gary Lash, who is expected to testify sometime this week.

The protest was sponsored by the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) and the Safe Energy Coalition (SEC). The question at hand is whether the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), formerly the Atomic Energy Commission, will grant theplant, which is presently closed, a new operating license and permission to expand its facilities to almost three times their present size. The student group hiked three A miles from the highway to the plant and then lit candles to protest the possible dangers such a plant could pose to environmental health and safety. Marvin Resnikoff, a physicist affiliated with Rachel Carson College, warned that at its present size, the plant would create a sizable danger to the environment. Dr. Resnikoff has joined the Sierra Club in opposing the NRC’s granting of a new operating license to the plant as it is now. Attendance at the vigil was not as large as expected, but the coordinators asserted that poor weather conditions were a prime factor in inhibiting the turnout. However, those present believed that “progress, even in small amounts is still progress.” “This is a new issue,” said NYPIRG member Richard Sokolow. “All new causes start small. After all,” he added, “even Martin Luther King started Out walking alone.” iFULL TIMEm>4M SUMMER EMPLOYMENT $630.00 MONTHLY GUARANTEE PLUS $1,000 SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITY Lots of money — lots of hard work Join the exciting world of GROLIER and earn $2015.00 this summer 25 SUMMER JOBS AVAILABLE CALL: JAMES GADEK 881-6110, 9 am - 2 pm for interview appt THE WILLIAM H. FITZPATRICK CHAIR OF POLITICAL SCIENCE LECTURE SERIES / CANISIUS COLLEGE / PRESENTS BUFFALO, N.Y. GARRY Two approaches to Issues “Current in Nutrition” were presented before a small but interested audience in Norton Hall last Thursday afternoon. Harold Sigel, professor of Biology and Daniel Kossman from the Biochemistry Department offered their views on dietary requirements, balanced eating and inexpensive nutritional diets as part of the Food Week activities. Three motivations govern the way an individual food. Dr. Sigel said: nutritional need, esthetic value and spiritual or political belief. “The one {motivation] people paid least attention to is the nutritional one, one we should give more attention to,” he said. According to Dr. Sigel, the major concern is “how, to optimally construct our diets to buys maximize health and longevity.” In concise form. Dr. Sigel described eight major areas of nutritional requirement; specific dietary needs, such as water; minerals such as potassium, nitrogen and magnesium; calories for energy which come from carbohydrates, fats and proteins; nitrogen for protein and nucleic acids; specific amino acids which are essential and required in a certain form, such as lycine and tryptophan; vitamins, organic chemicals needed in small amounts which become part of body machinery, such as ascorbic acid and niacin; essential fatty acids, especially polyunsaturates, to supply calories and join body machinery; and fibers, undigestible materials such as cellulose which are essential to maintenance'of the gastrointestinal tract. According to Dr. Kossman, the major use of amino acids is for snythesis of body proteins. He strongly emphasized the need to get the required amount of essential ammo acids each day noting that insufficient quantifies would he excreted with wastes. Protein synthesis requires a certain level of essential amino acids before it can occur. Contrary to common belief, there is a “great deal we don't know about nutrition," Dr Sigel explained. He continued saying thiamine deficiency results in illness and death and that lack of ascorbic acid caused scurvy In addition, he maintained, there is evidence to suggest that ascorbic acid might slow down aging, but indicated that not much is understood about this nor either of the other processes. World food problem Dr Sigel described the problems as “low availability world’s major food of protein per capita inadequacies.” He discussed the caloric widespread deficiency of vitamin A, a substance readily available in beef, liver and green and dark yellow vegetables. The condition, he maintained, which is most common among children, could be remedied with “a nickel’s worth of vitamin A per month.” Inadequate amounts of iron in the diet is also on the rise in the world, including the United States. and world food problem is so acute because of the world depends upon grains. Dr. Sigel indicated that 80 percent of the total supply of calories comes from carbohydrates of which grains are the greatest contributor. It requires eight pounds of grain to get as much nutrients as supplied by a ■pound of beef. Furthermore, the amount of rice required to obtain the proper daily allowance of protein is too great for a child to consume. The most Nutrition for less The major theme of Dr. Kossman’s discussion was that adequate nutrition could be obtained for less cost but that having accurate nutrition information was prerequisite. Dr. Sigel agreed citing a study in his nutrition class last semester which demonstrated that a young adult could eat nutritiously for $12 per week. Dr. Kossman maintained that the single most important factor in eating well for less eas avoiding packaged and processed foods. “One of the best sources of protein is dairy products,” he asserted. He added there was “good biological value” in meat and meat by-products because amino acids in beef, milk and eggs closely resemble those in the human body. Trade-offs He also suggested several “trade-offs” in maintaining a good diet. Poor grade meats contain the same amount of protein as more expensive cuts, have less fat and cost less. For example, skloin steak is 20 percent protein, 30 percent fat and costs about $2 per pound whereas ground round hamburger is 20 percent protein, 18 percent fat and costs about $1 per pound Dr. Kossman said that aged cheeses are expensive and grade A eggs nutritionally equivalent to grade AA eggs. “Organ meat can’t be beat,” the biochemist punned. He cited beef liver as an example which is 28 percent protein, 10 percent fat, twice as high as beef in iron, 15 times greater in riboflavin and three times higher in vitamin A. Dr. Kossman added that kidneys, heart, pancreas, tongue and brains are also cheap posited and nutritional. He esthetic conditioning as the only obstacle. Frozen juices, dried fruit, beans and nuts are also nutritious and economical according to Dr. Kossman. Vegetables are a good source fof Tiber material and are often more nutritious raw. He strongly cautioned consumers to read labels to make sure they are getting a good buy while avoiding potentially deleterious derivatives. Commenting briefly on dieting, Dr. Kossman maintained the best diet is “one which gets into you every day the nutrients which are required without exceeding caloric in-take.” He concluded that the “secret” for fast loss is to get caloric intake below output. Dr. Sigel added that it was not necessary to alter the diet to lose weight, but that one should merely eat less.

The picnic, which was planned by the Ellicott tennis courts, was moved to the Fargo Cafeteria, where CFC members and their in various guests participated activities. Originally, each retarded young adult was assigned to a CFC why the College chose to make its annual outing a one-to-one day. “CFC strives to hit as many nerves as possible, which is why we create different programs for different needs. In reevaluation of our programs, 1 found that there was a lack of community involvement. We wanted to provide a program not offered elsewhere.” “There kids are mildly and moderately retarded, perfectly capable of sharing and enjoying social interraction to the fullest,” Ms. Eichel said. “Too many times if we take them out of the closet The parents were apparently quite, responsive to the idea. Besides giving their children an opportunity to associate with others their own age, the program gave the parents a chance to socialize with other parents. In setting up the program, Ms. Eichel contacted the Association for the Help of Retarded Children (AHRC), who referred her to the Heritage School in Tonawanda. Heritage The School then contacted parents, who notified other parents of retarded children. Next year, CFC plans to make regular bi-monthly program.

There are so few well-established facts about the skilled reader that it is difficult tojiidge the adequacy of over-all reading, Dr. McConkie went on. The skilled reader, he explained, is difficult to study because even he does not know what he is doing correct. Techniques should be devised so that researchers and instructors can substantiate facts in order to build theories, Dr. McConkie stressed. Shakey stand Before explaining his Next own new methods for understanding the problems of remedial readers, Dr. McConkie warned that his findings constitute a premise rather than a breakthrough. “1 won’t stand hard and fast behind my theories,” he said. Before helping the unskilled reader, the Cornell professor insisted, one must understand the skilled reader at the simplest level. “My theory holds that you must . . . specify the nature of the text and how it is expressed, Dr. McConkie maintained. He said you must also specify the mental processes and linguistics, and be able to better Understand the memory representation that results from reading and the processes by which one retrieves this information. Finally, one must be able to discern the relationships between certain words, Dr, McConkie claimed. Dr. McConkie discussed the distinctions between different words in a sence. Different focuses Dr. McConkie explained that although a sentence structure may be transposed, it will not change its meaning because “the initial part of the sentence sets the topic, the reader’s eyes focus upon the first words of a sentence, and these same words set the stage for the rest of the sentence. Thus, the reader may focus his attention upon fall Comp course for pre-laws offered A new composition course tailored to fit the needs of pre-law students will be offered by the English Department this fall. English 211Z will stress analytic reading and legal writing, but will not only be a composition course. Course instructor John Stuart plans to conduct his class as a seminar for serious upperclass students interested in the study of law. Mr. Stuart, a graduate student in English and a third year law student, hopes that student initiative and individual projects will influence the class’s direction. different aspects in the text.” Dr. McConkie claimed the reader does not retain the surface order of a sentence, but rather, forms his own relationship of words. The reader then recalls and writes down his own “memory passage.” The professor also asserted that outside of the structure, the contents of a sentence or passage can also affect reading ability. Monitoring the eye Using a cathode-ray tube connected to a computer, Dr. McConkie monitored the reader’s eye movements and determined when they became affixed to a certain point or word in the sentence. As a result, researchers have learned that the skilled Budget. —continued on .

Finally, Dr. McConkie stressed the importance of simple word order and the cognitive-processing load. “Depending on the word order, very little meaning "processing can be transmitted,” he said. “Research techniques can explore and diagnose what a person does when he reads. Right now we are simply pioneers in the field, but rapid progress will be seen,” Dr. McConkie promised. Dr. McConkie has written articles on his for both the Journal findings of Experimental Psychology and the Journal of Reading Behavior. implementing these cuts, and a preliminary listing of request for the supplemental budget. Dt. Ketter has not responded directly to the letter, but did discuss input at a meeting with students last week.

Proper use of language is essential to a solid preparation for the study of law, Mr. Stuart noted, but emphasized that English 21 1Z is not a cram course for the Law School Admission Test (LSAT).

Unciae is the base foi both the words inch and ounce. Yard is traced to the Saxon Kings, who wore a sash or gird around the waist which could be used as a measuring device. Tradition says that King Henry I decreed that the yard be equal to the distance from the tip of his nose to his thumb. The furlong (furrow-long) was set by early Turdor kings at 220 yard. Queen Elizabeth I decreed that the mile be set at 5280 feet (equal to 8 furlongs), instead of the traditional 5000 feet, to bring these two units into some relationship. Governed by royal decree, England set up a system that was more uniform and suitable for commerce than the continental systems, arid brought this system to all of its colonies. However, in America, both the Articles of Confederation and the Constitution gave the Congress the right to regulate standards of weights and measures. Minute of arc The idea of a metric system was first proposed in 1670 by Gabriel Mouton, Vicar of Lyon, based on a measure of length equal to the length of one minute of the arc of the circumference of the earth. In 1671, French astronomer Jean Picard proposed the length of a pendulum’s beating seconds as a unit of length, because this is a standard which could easily be reproduced. During the French Revolution in 1790, the National Assembly asked the French Academy of Sciences to “deduce an invariable system for all the weights and all the measures.” The Academy’s recommendations were simple, yet integrally related to one another. They became the basis for the metric system. The unit of length (meter) was a portion of the earth’s diameter. Measures of volume were based on the litre, or the capacity of a cube measuring one-tenth of one meter (1 decimetre) on each side. Mass was determined by the mass of 1 cubic centimetre (one one-hundredth) of one meter of water at maximum density. The metrics system was not made compulsory in France until 1840, and most of continental Europe did not follow suit until' 1900. An act of Congress to be metrics as at legal system of measure U.S. in 1866. A bill Congress (HR. 5749) recognized . The Spectrum . Wednesday, 23 April 1975 in the before would commit the United States fully towards a full conversion to metrics.

The Bulls employ three good midfield lines, and Abrami rotated them frequently during the game. Oswego used their best line throughout the game, causing them to tire earlier than any of Buffalo’s lines. Abrami cited his defensive corps, along with goalie Gary Passer and midfielder Bill Barber, Bulls dominate Buffalo started to pull away in the third quarter, as Dave Kaplan scored once between a pair of goals by Wally Davis.

Everything was on the up and up. Starting promptjy at 4 p.m. Ketterpillar officials accepted reservations for today in the prescribed manner: one from the people that had formed a line there, followed by one from the phone, and so on. At one point, the phone stopped ringing and they took two in a row from the line. By 4:05 p.m., the line was gone and the phone had stopped ringing with three slots remaining. Within twenty minutes, they were filled by phone reservations. Sailes suspected that the slowness in filling the slots was due to the fact that people have started playing outdoors. The night lighting is now working on the outdoor courts at Ellicott and people can play there until 11 p.m. It had been charged that some people with the 4 p.m. playing times had been continually reserving the court for the same time slot on the next playing day. Delia announced that he would ask Bill Monkarsh to prohibit people from doing this and thereby monopolizing that time slot.

Part One deals with men's athletics, and Part Two will deal with women’s sports. Years ago, there was no such person as a single-sport specialist. Your topscollegiate athletes would usually competes year ’round, from football to basketball to baseball, or something likes that. In recent years, however, this trend has died out, with even the two-sport participant a rarity. On the Buffalo campus, however, there are ten student athletes who are spending less time as students and more time as athletes. They change hats during the year, often combining two major spaorts, occupying themselves throughout the entire school year. With the cooperation of Bill Monkarsh, baseball coach, and Ed Wright, hockey coach, Buffalo has four players sharing ice time and diamond duty. Heading the iist are two of Wright’s Canadian recruits, Rick Wolstenholmes and Mike Klym, who cames for hockey, but wounds ups on the baseball field as well.

Campus Editor The Student Association of the State University (SASU) and the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYP1RG) appear to be feuding over whether prospective NYPIRG branches should be funded according to the results of student referenda. NYPIRG members believe that fiscal referenda which would determine whether students are willing to increase their mandatory activity fee to support a NYPIRG office are the most democratically sound method of assessing student priorities. But some student government leaders, who in many cases also represent SASU on their campuses, insist it is unfair to hold a fiscal referendum solely to determine if students want to fund NYPIRG, or any other new group. They feel NYPIRG should submit a budget to the local student government, like any other club which seeks funding, and be budgeted out of the existing mandatory fee. Still others favor a check-off system for funding new NYPIRG branches. A - - Intensity reached The NYPIRG controversy reached its greatest intensity at the State University at Binghamton campus last week when a large turnout of student voters rejected by 99 votes a referendum proposal to fund a campus PIRG. “I haven’t seen the campus this pitched in years,” said SASU member and Binghamton student government President Bill Gordon. Mr. Gordon said that in spite of the vote, the overwhelming feeling at Binhamton was in favor of funding NYPIRG, possibly through some sort of check-off. But “making a decision is difficult because people are very upset,” he added. Following a hotly contested debate, the Student Assembly here last week voted down a constitutional amendment proposed by former NYPIRG director Richard Sokolow to make financial referenda binding on the Student Association (SA). During argument on that vote, NYPIRG, rather than the specific constitutional amendment seemed to be the subject of debate. Mr. Sokolow said Friday that fiscal referenda are the most “democratic” way to fund campus organizations because they provide another check against what could become elitism and power hoarding in student government. Not rational But Mr. Gordon, who opposes funding by referenda, said that at Binghamton, “with a $400 thousand budget, you cannot rationally fund by referendum.” The SA budget here usually exceeds $800,000. “I don’t like referendum funding because individual groups shouldn’t come up for referendum you can’t look at the whole picture,” commented SASU member Kelly McCormick. SASU assesses a 60 cent fee for each full time equivalent student at the individual SUNY campus. SASU President Dan Kohane predicted that the fee would be upped to 85 cents next year. The SASU budget requests are submitted to the individual student governments for approval. Mr. Kohane contrasted the way SASU applies for funds with the fiscal referenda favored by NYPIRG. “It’s different giving someone $4 out of an activity fee,” he said. For example, “if we wanted to win a referendum on the Buffalo campus,” Mr. Kohane continued, “we could. But we have more important things to do.” —continued on pege 8— — David Brinkley analyzes U.S. at home and abroad cover themselves.” Jody Gerard Spectrum Staff Writer With a touch of cynicism in his voice, Mr. Brinkley said many presidential hopefuls favor sending military aid so they will be able to say in 1976, “Don’t blame me because back in 1975 I voted to send more aid .” Millions of Americans feel that they are “passengers on a ship,” Washington journalist David Brinkely told a less-than-capacity crowd at Clark Hall Friday night. They own the ship and hire and pay the crew, but they are never asked where they want the ship to go. “They are simply pulled along for the ride,” but continue to receive higher and higher bids, Mr. Brinkley asserted. After a few moments of anecdotal informality, the grey-haired, dark-suited newsman began addressing the audience on “several of our current public questions,” from South Vietnam to welfare and the economy to national politics, in the famed, deliberate Brinkley style. Referring to the fate of South Vietnam, Mr. Brinkley said, “No one in Washington as far as I know has any hope that it will survive.” The reason for its anticipated downfall, he speculated, is the country’s lack of “the kind of political or social structure that brings people to make personal sacrifices for anything beyond their own immediate and personal Cover themselves There are two other rationales for voting aid to South Vietnam, he continued. “It would allow incumbent Congressmen to cover their backsides,” and allow Americans who are still in the country to leave peacefully. The South Vietnam government, he explained, would be “more likely to let the Americans leave peacefully if, instead of having them fight their way out, Washington promises to carry on with the aid.” During the next few days, Washington and Congress will be involved in a “charade,” Mr. Brinkley said. Congress will “be covering itself by voting money interests. Corruption “It is not a coherent country with some simple idea around which people can rally, so they don’t rally,” Mr. Brinkley explained. As a country, South Vietnam is neither communist, fascist, democratic nor “regally aristocratic. Politically and structurally, it is nothing. People will not fight for nothing,” he declared. Dauid Brinkley Although the South V ietnamese government is corrupt from top to bottom, and its soldiers “quit two or three weeks ago, turn and ran,” leaving billions of dollars of military equipment in the field, Mr. Brinkley said the Ford Administration will continue to blame its downfall on the cutoff of American military aid. ‘‘According to the best information that we have,” Mr. Brinkley said, the majority of Americans “see Vietnam as a hopelessly lost cause, and are opposed to sending any more military aid in the form of either weapons or money.” However, he said there is “a good chance” that Congress will vote for more military aid anyway. “Why?” Mr. Brinkley asked. “To ~ that may never be spent, because there may be no war left to spend it on.” Such action by Congressmen would “give them the basis for saying that they did all they could,” Mr. Brinkley explained. The loss of South Vietnam to the North, he concluded, would be “a tragic ending to a tragic episode in American history the most destructive, damaging, and should improve sometime in the late summer, he predicted. Depression “But the economic data indicates that “the federal government policies that helped get us into this economic mess” will continue, Mr. Brinkley emphasized. This could conceivably “bring back the 12 percent inflation we had last year, or worse, be followed by another recession, or depression.’ The result of these economic policies, Mr. Brinkley stressed, will be inflation, “the crudest and most regressive tax of all.” Mr. Brinkley traced the roots of inflation to the beginning of the Johnson Administration’s involvement in the Vietnam war, when we were “trying to fight a war on credit and lying about it.” Another cause of inflation, he contended, is the unequal distribution of income between generation of trying to transfer money from the rich to the poor “has not worked,” he said. rich and poor. A What has instead resulted is “a re-distribution of power from the individual to Washington,’' Mr. Brinkley declared. The problem of re-distribution is that Washington only transfers part of it,” a major part they just keep .” — wrong-headed experience since the Civil War.” Moving to the economy, Mr. Brinkley said “the conventional wisdom of the moment is that it will improve this year.” The rates of inflation and unemployment Overhead For example, in the largest of the “so-called welfare programs,” only 50 percent of the money goes to the poor. “Only 50 percent.” Mr. Brinkley emphasized. “The goes for overhead, rest —continued on page 10— ' �Nations in need Students look at world hunger in observance of Food Week nter still open Amnesty plan ‘unfair’ says draft counsellor , by Andrew Sacks Spectrum Staff Writer Despite an amnesty program that many claim is not working and unfair, the Military and Draft Counseling Center is continuing to help people with selective service or military problems, according to counselor George Iggers, a history professor at the University. The center, established in 1967 to advise civilians about selective service, has also dealt extensively with those already in the military since 1971. Once a week, the counselors hold “emergency sessions” at the Buffalo Friends Meeting Hall on North Parade St. often with AWOL (absent without official leave) soldiers dodging the FBI and wondering where they should turn themselves in. However, most of the business operates through a 24-hour answering service (phone 897-2871). Mr. Iggers estimates that the center handled 100 new cases a week during the Vietnam war years and currently handles five or six, dealing primarily with AWOL soldiers, hardship cases, or evaders trying to return from Canada. Although Dr. Iggers says most military cases handled by the center have ended in an honorable discharge, and many civilian cases end in selective service charges 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.

Ford program unfair “It doesn’t work, and I don’t think it’s fair,” Dr. Iggers said. “It treats anyone who takes advantage of it as a criminal.” Dr. Iggers added that to benefit from the program, a person has to either plead guilty to civil service violations, or accept a “less than honorable discharge” from the military. For civilians, the service is often able to get government charges dropped via technicalities such as arrest irregularities. This eliminates alternate required program. Often, the need for the service normally under the amnesty the service works in conjunction with psychiatrists or social workers, in an attempt to show that emotional problems or other “hardships” would result from military service. Dr. Iggers cited' the cSse of a West Seneca soldier who received his honorable discharge after a psychiatrist attested that the man's upcoming transfer to Germany would cause emotional hardships on his wife and family. Dr. Iggers said a chief problem of the service has been publicity. Dr. Iggers feels that contact has been made with inner city and lower income individuals, those who need it most, only recently. Despite posters, TV spots and word of mouth, the center only reaches a “small number of the people it should reach.” The counseling service is free of charge and there are three non-paid counselors; Dr. Iggers, Mat Goldman and Dan Amigone. The service, which operates on a budget of SI00 a month, is financed totally by contributions. SYSTEMS PROGRAMMER As part of the University’s observance of Food Week, students from several of the Third World nations hit by famine and poverty gathered in Norton Hall Wednesday night to discuss the causes and possible solutions of their countries’ problems, The discussion entitled “Another Perspective on World Hunger,” was organized and sponsored by the New York Public Interest Research Group underdeveloped nations must be modernized in order to increase productivity. The governments of the two nations have begun redistributing land in an effort to provide everyone with the opportunity to raise enough food for their families. But because the Indian government has been leaning toward socialism and away from (NYPIRG). Roman Habtu, a student from Ethiopia, spoke about the causes of the devastating famine that killed thousands in her country last year, charging that the Ethiopian government’s negligence was responsible for the magnitude of the famine. “The government took no effective measures,” she said. “It sought, above all else, to hide the famine from the rest of the world, because it did not want to be em harassed ” The famine hit during Ethiopia’s tenth anniversary celebration, and the government took pains to preserve its image for the sake of the foreign visitors in the country. As an example, Ms. Habtu cited the government’s expenditure jof $10,000 for the beautification of the capital city to preserve “the myth of beauty, grace and prosperity that surrounds Addis Abbaba.” Furthermore, she added, the government continued to export tons of grain instead of keeping it within the country, in order to hide the famine from the rest of the world. “The government strove to retain Ethiopia’s image as ‘the breadbasket of Africa’,” she said. The famine, which has spread into bordering nations, is no longer as severe in Ethiopia. The impact it had on the people is the direct result of the government’s lack of action until it was too late, according to Ms. Habtu. When humanitarian relief projects were initiated by overseas agencies, the government was neither cooperative nor appreciative, she added. “The rest of the world found out about the devastation gradually, through visitors returning from the country, and the outcry of Ethiopian student groups.” Core problems Chandran Santinam, a student from India, cited overpopulation as the major source of his nation’s employment and food distribution problems. He agreed with a Pakistani student participating in the discussion that the small-farming methods in the —Forrest Chandran Santinam profit-seeking, they do not encourage farmers to raise more than they need, according to Mr. Santinam The Pakistani student said that small farmers must be encouraged to upgrade their conditions. “A person who has never known electricity doesn’t know what they are missing, and doesn’t know enough to try and obtain it,” he said. All agreed that the first step in improving the lot of Third World nations is education. This would help break down the religious and cultural barriers against birth control, provide the incentive, needed to imp/ove farm productivity and give them the expertise to improve their standards of living.

Meyer, a former State Supreme Court Justice in Nassau County, was named last week to head an independent inquiry into charges that Chief Attica prosecutor Anthony G. Simonetti covered up crimes committed by law officers during the September, 1971 Attica uprising. The appointment of Mr. Meyer, a 58-year-old Democrat now, practicing in Mineola, Long Island, was announced Thursday by Governor Carey and Attorney General Louis J. Lefkowitz. Mr. Meyer will “evaluate the conduct” of the State’s three-year investigation and the subsequent prosecution of crimes arising from the prison revolt. While 62 inmates have been named in 42 separate indictments, no state troopers or correction officers have been charged with criminal offense. Thirty-nine persons died from police gunfire during the storming of the prison. “Judge Meyer has earned the highest respect of his colleagues in his service as a lawyer and a judge,” Mr. Carey and Mr. Lefkowitz said in a joint statement following the appointment. “He has impeccable integrity.” Cover-up? The cover-up charge against Mr. Simonetti was made by Malcolm H. Bell, a former chief assistant to the chief prosecutor who conducted most of the grand jury hearings on possible crimes committed by state troopers and corrections officers. Mr. Simonetti has categorically denied the charge. Mr. Meyer’s appointment has met with mixed reaction. While his selection was strongly praised by proponents of the independent inquiry, including Mr. Bell’s attorney, Robert P. Patterson, some lawyers have expressed concern over Mr. Meyers’ “toughness” and lack of experience in criminal matters. Mr. Meyer has never tried or presided over a criminal case, according to a law partner, John F. English. In response, Mr. Meyer said in an interview that his inexperience in criminal cases would be easily overcome. “The assignment is really a question of evaluating evidence and witnesses, as in all adversary proceedings, and that’s what 1 did during my 14 years on the bench.” Honorable reputation Mr. Patterson called Mr. Meyer “an honorable fellow, a fine man, a person of integrity and a first-rate lawyer by all accounts.” Cyrus Vance, president of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York, described Mr. Meyer “an excellent high quality man and of great ability.” Mr. Meyer will have the power to examine secret grand jury minutes, subpoena witnesses and documents, and take sworn testimony. He has been promised whatever staff assistance he needs and will be paid $150 per hour, or up to $35,000. Mr. Meyer said that the hourly rate is “less than he normally received as an attorney.” According to Robert Laird, the Governor’s spokesman, Mr. Meyer is free to study any aspect of the Attica investigation, even if it goes beyond Mr. Bell’s original charge and Mr. Simonetti’s denial. Mr. Meyer stressed that his final report would be made public, eventually. THE WILLIAM H.

Story of Lev Unspoken word still unspoke Michael Stephen Levinson, son of Mary, mother of Lev, and the master of the unspoken word because it hasn’t been spoke yet, spoke very briefly in Clark Hall Friday night before a crowd of 1,000 that dwindled to about 20 within seconds after Mr. Levinson began reciting his cosmic, dawn-to-dusk poem Deuteronomy. Mr. Levinson’s appearance had been endorsed by the Student Assembly last Wednesday. Originally, he was scheduled to speak 45-minutes before keynote speaker David Brinkley, the •newsman who brought Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony into the homes of millions of American viewers every evening at 7 p.m. Last-minute alterations, however, forced the postponement of Mr. Levinson’s recital of the prophetic poem Adman and Even a work he composed four years ago when “In Rathskellar did My kull Lee(v), a stately pleasure pome dee cree.” In an exclusive interview with The Spectrum, minutes after his speech was cut short when Clark Hall maintenance began dissembling the speaker’s podium and the sound system, Mr. Levinson accused certain student government types of conspiring to prevent his five-point plan for world peace from reaching the “stew dent’’ body. ' ‘Arf, arf,’ said Tanya Mr. Levinson arrived at the gym with his dog, Tanya, at 8:15 p.m. Although he was one of the scheduled speakers, he was told by a security guard that he could not enter without a ticket. Tanya was told she could not enter at all, Leash law in to which she reportedly replied, “Arf Arf.” Mr. Levinson said he secured a ticket after reluctantly locking Tanya in the back seat of his car. Just two minutes after taking a seat in the back of the gym, the cosmic wrapper rose to his feet x, grabbed the nearest microphone, and asked Mr. Brinkley if he remembered him from the 1972 Democratic National Convention. “How are you Michael,” Mr. Brinkley replied. “Do you remember when Walter Cronkite introduced us on the floor of the convention and I handed you a copy of the Book of Lev.” “Huh.” could give him a copy of his mother’s 1972 presidential campaign literature, his ill-fated magazine Cosmos which contains the Millenium (Lev-David) television report, and a “handlettered letter” to President Ford. Before he was hustled off by the speaker’s escort, Mr. Levinson did manage to hand Mr. Brinkley a copy of the Book of Lev. Shortly afterward, over beer and pretzels in the Rat, Mr. Levinson, visibly upset by what he termed “a screwing,” charged that “the University’s suppression of the voice of Lev continues.” Summoning Tanya, who was Discussing the exchange with Mr. Brinkley later, Mr. Levinson said this last remark “gave me the impresssion that he wanted to hang out and hear my rap.” But when the question and answer period ended.

The fission process, conducted exclusively at the West Valley plant, separates reusable nuclear fuel elements (uranium and plutonium) from nuclear waste. Uranium, plutonium and nuclear wastes are all highly toxic and radioactive. The process poses four major dangers to living things. First, the exposure of plant workers to high amounts of radiation can result in slow death by cancer. Second, there is a danger that the recyclable uranium and plutonium could be exposed.to the air while being transported to other nuclear fuel reprocessing plants. The plutonium is scheduled to be transported to John F. Kennedy International Airport in a powdered form, where it will be flown to West Germany for reprocessing. If the powder seeps into the air, as little as 2.5 kilograms (enough to fill the palm of your hand) could develop lung cancer in as many as up to 5 million people. Fifteen thousand truckloads of powdered plutonium is transported every year. Environmental groups are trying to curtail these dangerous shipments because they fear possible hijackings or sabotage.. Third, the waste materials of the fission process must be water-cooled before disposal. By using local streams to cool the toxic wastes, NFS exposes the tributaries: of Lake Erie and Ontario to radioactive contamination, a pollution that will render these waters unsafe for up to 15 years. Fourth, after these nuclear wastes are cooled, the only practiced method of disposal is storage. NFS now stores their wastes in liquid form at the West Valley plant, where they will remain radioactive for tens of thousands of years. The tanks in which they are held are expected to leak after a period of 40-50 years! As little as one percent of the wastes could contaminate all of Western New York’s water supply. The NFS plant is closed at the moment, preparing to expand and increase its efficiency. The Safe Energy Coalition sponsored a protest vigil this past weekend against the reopening of the plant, and the continuation of its dangerous activity.

To deal with plants that threaten to close, Norma Spector, a community organizer from New York, suggested that the coalition push for a bill that would “provide for public takeovers,” and keep them operating. In addition, Mr. Von Luther said the coalition seeks special measures to protect the rights of minority workeis and women, who are the “first fired” in a serious economic recession “The Environmental Crisis” a The coalition sponsored a Legislative Conference on the Economic Crisis last month at Georgetown University, and plans to formulate legislation which would forbid layoffs, plant closings and relocations, and prohibit tenant evictions, □ United action Jacob Clayman, secret ary-treasurer of the six million member Industrial Union Department of the AFL-CIO said his organization’s members would press for “a tax cut, release of impounded funds, public service jobs, extended unemployment benefits” and other economic relief measures. The Industrial Union Department is comprised of the largest and most powerful industrial unions, including the 945,000 member Steelworkers, the 779,000 member International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, and the 69 8,000 member International Association of Machinists. Many of these unionists have suffered prolonged unemployment. The powerful United Auto Workers (UAW) and Teamsters unions are not members of the AFL-CIO, though the UAW held a similar protest last February 5, when 10,000 auto workers rallied for jobs in the nation’s capital. George Meany, AFL-CIO president, appears to have isolated himself from the union members by opposing the rally. Unemployment rises In January of this year, 7.5 million American workers were unemployed, according to the government’s Bureau of Labor Statistics, and unemployment reached the highest rate since the last years of the depression in 1941. Reported at 8.2 percent nationally, unemployment among black teenagers was officially reported at 41.1 percent and for all black workers at 13.4 percent. Industrial workers bore the brunt of recent layoffs adding some 1.7 million to the ranks of the unemployed between September of 1974 and January 1975. Unemployment rates are higher today, and observers have pointed out that the statistics do not count the unemployed who have given up seeking work.

The Senate's Armed Services and Foreign Affairs Committees have categorically rejected Mr. Ford's request for military aid. At the same time, public opinion polls show that Americans are overwhelmingly opposed to further assistance. With the insurgent government in Cambodia now firmly and the fall of Saigon imminent, there is control, in something very smug about Mr. Ford going before the nation and making vague references to a "Saigon Defense Plan," "Stabilization of the military situation" and a "political solution," especially when he should be devoting all his energies toward sending humanitarian aid to the Vietnamese. Except for Mr. Ford, Henry Kissinger, and a scattered few who refuse to believe this country is capable of losing any cause, most people will no longer subscribe to the icy abstractions like "moral committment" and "dominoe theory." After watching death and destruction for 10 years, they now realize there is an intrinsic insanity to sending aid that will only make it possible for the warring Vietnamese to keep killing each other. Emergency relief operations, similar to the ones this country initiated after the last two world wars, should be immediately begun. The misdirected symbolic babylift which only perpetuates the assumption that our's is the best way of life should be abandoned in favor of programs that rebuild Vietnam any Vietnam. help the Vietnamese will And before Mr. Ford goes on nationwide t.v. again, he should swalloft his pride, as many in Congress have already done, and be prepared to admit the underlying fallacies and cynical brutality of our Vietnam policy, instead of clinging to policies where saving lives becomes less important than saving face. — — — Squeamish of pot The reluctance of many legislators to firmly support the decriminalization of possession of small amounts of marijuana is unfortunate but not at all surprising. In 1973, the legislature demonstrated its understanding of the drug problem by passing a law that has made the small-time heroin user subject to the same mandatory life sentence as a large-scale narcotics racketeer. In many ways, the squeamishness of many legislators, and adults in general, towards pot stems from the same lack of social awareness that enabled them to support New York's "throw-them-in-jail" drug law. Instead of cringing at what has become a popular social custom, and is probably less harmful than alcoholic beverages, legislators would be better off devoting their energies to stopping the flow of hard drug trafficking and investigating the harmful effects of legal drugs that are now being sold to consumers every day. Their refusal to see through stereotypes about drugs will only perpetuate ignorance and prevent the resources of government from being used for preventive rather than punitive measures.

Editorial Policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief Page six The Spectrum Monday, 21 April 1975 . . by Clem Colucci Note: I’m uneasy about this column because of the distinct possibility that South Vietnam won’t last the weekend, thus dating the subject. In that event, I told you so. It all started when I went to discuss the Indochina situation with my Congressman, T. Caleb McGonicle. Congressman McGonicle, Chairman of the House Subcommittee on War Refugees and Postal Operations, surprised me with the announcement that he had introduced a bill to provide one billion dollars in military aid to North Vietnam. “North Vietnam, Congressman?” “That’s right. North Vietnam.” “Why?” “All the best reasons in the world. Just look at it logically. First, from a military standpoint. They’re going to get the stuff anyway, aren’t they?” “I can’t deny that. Congressman.” “So there's no point throwing it away on the South, is there?” “I guess not." 2 “And there's another good military reason for it. Giving the North Vietnamese military aid will help us evacuate Americans and South Vietnamese." “I don’t understand." “Wei!, look, if you’re a South Vietnamese and the enemy is marching info Saigon, how do you score brownie points with the conquerors?” “You off General Thieu or some Americans.” “Precisely. And if we arm the North Vietnamese, they can protect us as we withdraw.” “I get it. Then we won't have to send in troops to help with the evacuation either.” “You catch on quick, son. I’m proud to have such a bright constituent.” “Thank you. Congressman.” “There’s even more. Look at the diplomacy, for once, we back a winner and when did we last do that?” “Too long.” “Right. And this can be foot in the door to start a massive program of humanitarian aid and foreign investment. It’ll give us all sorts of leverage in Southeast Asia, more than we’ve had in years.” “Brilliant.” “Thank you. But the economic benefits make this bill even more attractive. We can’t very well give arms to a country we’ve been bombing for years, can we?’’ “No.” “Then we’d have to sell them and that would do wonders for our balance of payments deficit.” “Would you have any trouble getting the bill passed?” “I don’t see why not. We’ve supplied both sides of a war before, haven’t we? Just look at the Middle East.” “There’s no arguing that, Congressman.” “The benefits to the arms industry are obvious.” “Obvious.” “And think of the effect on our free enterprise system.” “I don’t understand.” “Just recall how our arms industry and good old American know-how have suffered through the Vietnam War. Defense industries just can’t make fighters that fly anymore. The C-5A loses wheels, engines and other vital parts in the air. Remember how GI’s would complain about the M-16 jamming up?” “Vdkh-, you could make a fortune black-marketing Vietcong AK-47s to American soldiers.” “But I don’t see the point.” “It should be obvious. Why can’t they do anything right? Because old-fashioned free enterprise and competition have died. Now if we sell all our enemy’s military equipment we’ll be competing with the Russians, the French, the Germans, the Swedes. We’ll get our old productivity and efficiency back so fast it’ll make your head spin.” “Congressman McGonicle, you’re a statesman of daring vision. I wish you good luck.” Self-righteous pseudo newspaper * , ■ The Spccu^iM . j To the Editors Buffalo fans, the city of Buffalo and its people getting ranked out by a bunch of fanatic New York If I remember my Latin roots correctly, “uni” City oriented ideologies and spirits. I’m sick of means all, “ver” means see. A University: a place hearing people say, “Oh, you go to Jew B.” where one can see ah. Over and above that, a We are here for four or more years of our lives university is supposed to be a place where one can Most of the people at this university want to be here; grow, intellectually and emotionally.

However, reading The Spectrum in the past It’s so ironic that a professor has to stop a couple of years makes one realize all too much the lecture to reprimand his students for reading The stinking bureaucratic, self-righteous, Spectrum, when they are ostensibly there to learn. It pseudo-intellectual elite who do our thinking for us, seems that both the university, and the paper that shape Our minds, and shockingly enough remind us represents it, are vulgarized every Monday, of the propaganda that our ILS. “government” tries Wednesday and 'Friday, and every minute in to feed us. Reading The Spectrum is like reading the between. It makes one forget the true meaning of a frustrations of a bunch of “Little New York” hung university. up Portnoy’s and merely furthers “anti-Semitic graffiti.” I’m sick of hearing Buffalo weather. Lloyd Jim �Self-imposed alienation ro ere To the Editor. Mike McGuire’s attempt to justify the recent College F letter comparing college students to Attica inmates only tends to emphasize its weakness. Mr. McGuire’s “alienation... from educational and intellectual reality,” as he so aptly phrases it, is not enforced by iron bars and hostile guards, but is totally self-imposed. All.educational and intellectual activity need not take place within the University. The “reality” Mr. McGuire seeks is available through his own means. This is not to say “love it or leave it,” but Mr. McGuire should realize that a University, particularly one operating largely on public funds, is not primarily intended to be a tool of self-realization (although it may be used as one). To insist that the university orient students to “reality” is asking it to perform a function of which it is not capable. The presumption is that students here, and at other colleges, already have a fair grip on reality, and are using the varied resources of the University to to ther by Garry Wills President Ford in his address said: “Let us keep events in Southeast Asia in their proper perspective.” It would have been more accurate to say “restore them to their proper perspective,” since we have not been keeping them in perspective for some time. But the President had no intention of restoring perspective. He came to maintain the distortions of our policy. The speech was oddly self-defeating on the face of it. After reading a touching letter from Cambodia’s President, asking for aid, the President did not go on to ask Congress once again for aid he merely shrugged and said, “It may be too late.” Then why did he read the letter at all? To parade America’s failure? To advertise our incompetence? The only plausible explanation is that he meant, by this horrid example, to prevent the same failure in Vietnam. But does he really mean to prevent it? He talked more of the unfortunate possibilities of failure of evacuation for Americans and for Vietnamese than of anything positive his $900 million might be able to do for the Saigon regime. He spoke only vaguely of a Saigon “defense plan,” which would involve “stabilization of the military situation” to be followed by a “political solution.” What exactly, does that mean? The President himself details the breakdown of the Paris accords, reached when Saigon had much more territory, military discipline, and hope than it has now. If an agreement could not be reached before, why should we expect one now? Saigon is finished. It will not recapture its lost territory. It cannot live on in its maimed and incomplete condition. That is a reality. Yet our President comes before us and says. “Assistance to South Vietnam — further their own desires, to realize their realities. Yes, Mr. McGuire, the university is “a means to an end,” an end defined by the individual student, rather than some institutionalized university-wide reality which you presume to exist. It is precisely the fact that our prisons fail to provide a useful means to individual ends that makes our penal system a failure, and no amount of self-serving whining by students who ask the University to serve up “reality” on a silver platter should cloud that fact. — — Michael Kaye Peugeot not peugot , To the Editor. 1 feel it is my duty as an ex-Peugeot owner to point out the misspelling of said auto by Jeffrey Tashman in Monday’s The Spectrum. Calling a Peugeot a Peugot is like calling a Ford a Furd Eddie Rickenbacker drove a Peugeot to victory in the 1909 Indy 500. Let us not defame the name of such a at this stage must be swift and adequate half-hearted would be worse than none.” Yet his own program, even if acceded to by Congress, would be half-hearted. It has no clear goal of conquest, settlement, or preservation of the Saigon regime. It has no positive aspect at all. It holds out only a vague hope that if the war is prolonged, something might turn up. That was a sad Micawber self-delusion ten years ago. To cling to it now is solipsistic. How can we pretend any longer that the warring Vietnamese are going to treat each other better because we make it possible for them to kill each other a little longer? Besides, the President had to know that his chance of getting $700 million in weaponry was slim. Some said he meant to ask this as a bargaining point, to strengthen his chance of getting the $300 million he first requested but even that is unlikely now. Others think he was making the request so he could say “I told you so” and blame Congress when Saigon does fall an ignoble suspicion, but one the President courts by asking for the unlikely. His request makes no sense in itself, so men read into it all kinds of unconfessed and indirect motivations. - - We end the war as we began it, fooling others and fooling ourselves, using a huge intelligence apparatus to make ourselves willfully unintelligent, trying to throw American money at a problem on the assumption that money always finds a way, talking about our national reputation while we toy with a client state’s national existence. I did not think any President could add to the dishonor of our “peace with honor” hoax, but President Ford has contrived to do just that. It is hard to decide whether his military request is a devious stratagem or a straightforward idiocy. Either way, U continues our demeaning record. noble and illustrious automobile. Ralph W. Peters Discrimination against Fine Arts To the Editor ‘Twat’ around the court I am writing at this time to formally lodge a complaint against The Spectrum for its gross neglect of the so-called “fine arts” on this campus. This To the Editor In response to Richard Hohenstein’s April 16 letter regarding the use of the Amherst Bubble by University women Mr. Hohenstein: Whether or not you have the intelligence and insight to acknowledge the fact that women in our society are oppressed (and wrongfully so), it still constitutes a very real problem to 100 percent of all women. Your brilliant spew of indignant, sexist rhetoric did, however, overlook a few factors which fortunately Mr. Monkarsh was perceptive enough to recognize. Since our educational institutions wield significant - influence in perpetuating established male-female roles in our society, it is necessary (as any rational person should realize) to concentrate a great deal of effort in correcting the oppressive forces existing within this system. Giving women a fair “shake” in use of the Bubble facilities may entail certain special provisions, e.g. women’s night, or the reservation of two courts exclusively for women. We’re terribly sorry if this inconveniences Mr. Hohenstein and his peers. However, he should be made aware that it is because of the sexist minds of individuals like himself that any special provisions must be made at all. Perhaps if the women who do frequent the Amherst Bubble (1/10 of its total users, according to Mr. Hohenstein) were to escape the harassment, mockery and humiliation inflicted on them by such people as Mr. Hohenstein, and such statements as those contained in his letter, the percentage of University women on the courts would increase. That, Mr. Hohenstein, would alleviate your statistical hang-ups regarding use of the gym. In conclusion, a quote from Mr. Hohenstein’s letter This way, one girl at a time could trot around (or is it twat around) all six courts by herself.” Obviously, Mr. Hohenstein has some sort of innate poetic ability. I suggest that perhaps he should channel his efforts toward an area where his literary 'proficiency would receive greater appreciation, rather than wasting his time writing letters to The Spectrum, and expending his energy asserting himself on the courts. « Paula Burko . campus particularly is in need of strong support of the arts and The Spectrum could and should be in a position of leadership on this level, rather than simply be reflecting the mass tastes of the top ten or top forty as the case may be. I believe The Spectrum must be considered a newspaper and as such should have a policy, hopefully written, that it brings “news” to its readers and simply not “popular” news or news which it perceive as suitable to its public. I think it a most deceitful thing for a newspaper to pre-judge its readership and make the content reflective only of popular activities and not provide appropriate space to alternative forms of entertainment. In my two year experience on this campus, I find precious little space devoted to the arts other than pop-arts and find this a very serious dilemma. A University is, after all, a place where students and others experiment with all sorts of new experiences which might even include the arts. If The Spectrum abdicates its position of informing the public of such activities, its public is really short-changed and ripped-off, to use current terminology. Since coming here and viewing the obvious disinterest of The Spectrum staff, including its Fine Arts Editor, to many fine arts activities, we in the Music Department have been forced to purchase space in The Spectrum so that the University community is informed of our activities. Needless this financial burden cuts down our ability to do other many important things which may effect student lives as well as others. With the exception of Jay Boyar’s treatment of the subject, I feel that we as well as others, have been discriminated against by the staff of The Spectrum and that our press releases have been totally ignored, save their insertion in the Backpage, which, while helpful, are not at all the kind of treatment which would support the excellent fine arts program on campus. Terry Charles Schwarz, Director Concert Office Attica inmate seeks correspondence To the Editor. i am writing to ask you to please publish this letter in your campus student newspaper. 1 am seeking to get together with anyone, 18 years of age or older, who wishes to maintain a correspondence relationship with me. The reaon I say 18 is because of the rules here at Attica. Anyone who wants more information about me, please write to the address you will find at the close of this letter. I am a college student myself majoring in Psychology. I would like to thank everyone for taking time to read my letter. John R. LeClair 74D80 Box 149 Attica, New York 14011 Use your own money To the Editor I would like to voice my protest against mandatory support of the Attic* defendants. In The Spectrum of April 18, it was reported that the Student Assembly approved (besides other things) a SI.300 allocation for buses toi be sent to Albany with students from UB to demonstrate in the behalf of the Attica defendants. 1 have no personal feeling for or against the defendants io the Attica case or the students in support of them, but I feel that if these students wish to support the defendants, it’s their personal choice and it should be supported by their own money. The Student Assembly should not allocate funds from the SA budget that all of the students supported with fees. I am sure that there are many other students that feel as I do that SA money should be used for something that would benefit all of the students and not just a small percentage.

Decriminalization legislation has focused on reducing penalties for possession of small amounts of marijuana. Proposals range from one-quarter to four ounces, and by most accounts, prospects look best for one-quarter or one ounce. Proponents of decriminalization contend that people’s careers and lives are being ruined by a severe punishment that does not fit this “victimless” crime, especially when the alleged harmful effects of marijuana have yet to be proven scientifically." Another common argument is that the present law is so arbitrarily enforced it can only breed disrespect for the legal system. Another issue involves changing the definition of the term “sale.” Under t he current law, sale includes any transfer of Assemblyman Stanley Fink (D., Brooklyn), will support a bill making possession of one ounce or less of marijuana a violation carrying a small fine and/or short jail sentence (up to fifteen days), but no criminal record. The Assembly will conduct hearings and then vote on the proposed bills. Legislators’ reactions to the marijuana lobbyists varied. Many felt they were not yet prepared to commit themselves. Assemblyman Benjamin Roosa (R., Dutchess. Orange), explained that he is “sympathetic to reform but is now on the fence” because he thinks “the high school generation of today is drawing away from drugs and more toward alcohol.” Rep. Roosa admitted that the effects of marijuana are still unknown but he believes we will find it to be harmful.

After a long day on the campaign trail, Winthrop Rockefeller, known to his colleagues as “Win,” arrived in Wynne, Arkansas, for the last speech of the day. Forgetting the name of the town, his campaign colleagues whispered to him “Wynne, Wynne,” at which point Mr. Rockefeller screamed, “Goddamn it, I know my name. WHERE AM I?” Mr. Brinkley said he later carried the election in Wynne because “people there thought that was the only honest political expression that they had ever heard.” J.S.U. and Israel Information Center invite you to meet Editor’s note: Dave Geringer, former Sports Editor of The Spectrum. has come back to write this column for us under his old heading. Sudden Death. Mr. Geringer is presently Editor-in-Chief of the Opinion (the Law school newspaper) and is still the foremost expert on Buffalo’s hockey program, the subject of this column. The hockey Bulls’ scheduling ofLake Superior Slate next year, an apparent attempt to strengthen their ties with the Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA), is a move in the wrong direction. National power St. Louis University will be the only CCHA squad missing from Buffalo’s 1975-76 schedule.' The Bulls originally looked westward for opponents because they were frustrated by the ECAC Playoff Committee’s failure to select them for post-season play. Buffalo has reached the tournament only once in five years of Division II competition, as both the Bulls and their arch-rival, Oswego, have been among schools frustrated by committee decisions that reeked of politics. Buffalo sought to join the CCHA, a league similarly composed of “outcasts.” The CCHA was originally formed by teams who were frustrated in their attempts to join the Western Collegiate Hockey Association, the West’s equivalent of ECAC Division 1. When the CCHA split into two divisions, St. Louis, Ohio State (which later withdrew), Bowling Green and Lake Superior formed the first division, with Buffalo, Western Michigan, Lake Forest and Chicago Circle forming a second group. Each division was supposed to provide its members with a competitive division race. Despite their efforts, the association’s grand plan was a dud. Ohio State withdrew in an unsuccessful attempt to join the WCHA, while Chicago Circle proved to be an unmitigated disaster. The CCHA, left with iwo three-team divisions, then invited the Division II champion to the Dwision I playoffs, giving Buffalo a chance for post-season action. Western Michigan nosed out the Bulls for that spot in 1973-74. However, while Western Michigan’s program skyrocketed, Buffalo’s plummeted. The Broncos utilized scholarships to strengthen their team while the Bulls felt the effects of the curtailment of the foreign student tuition plan for the first time this past season and were weakened- tremendously. Western Michigan wrecked Buffalo’s CCHA playoff chances with a clean sweep of their four game series last season. The prospects for the future are bleak. Western Michigan and Ohio State are expected to swell Division I to five teams this season, eliminating the need to invite a Division II squad to the playoffs. The Bulls remain as part of a two-team second division with Lake Forest, a relatively pitiful team located near Chicago. It is clearly now worth Buffalo’s effort to make an eight-hour trip to register two one-sided wins. The Bulls’ ECAC playoff chances for the future were improved by the addition of athletic director Harry Fritz to the playoff committee last year. Buffalo was in the running for a playoff position down to the final week of its recently concluded season, despite a relatively poor —continued from page 1— DR.

Rochester Tech could fill the bill if a new patsy is desired, while Army and/or other New England-based schools could provide Buffalo with contests at their own level that will carry playoff importance. The latter ingredient has been lacking in Bull schedules since the inception of varsity hockey at Buffalo six years ago.

Fac-Sen considers funding, vacancies by Laura Bartlett Spectrum Staff Writer The University will request additional funding of S 1.1 million from the State’s supplemental budget, President Robert Ketter announced at Tuesday’s Faculty-Senate meeting. Included in that figure will be $169,000 for graduate student salaries, $300,000 for the libraries, and $100,000 to cover mandated faculty contracts. Dr. Ketter also announced that approximately $11.2 million will be requested from the state’s capital budget for construction at the Amherst campus next year. This figure represents, in effect, a request for the speeded-up construction of the new campus which Assemblyman G. James Fremming (D—Amherst) has advocated for some time. “I believe we have the correct individuals making the correct noises on our behalf,” Dr. Ketter said, indicating his belief that the requests have a good chance of being approved. “There is a strong desire for new construction projects on the Niagara frontier,” he went on, alluding to the area’s high unemployment. / Construction firms have begun advancing bids for the joint libraries project, which -is expected to begin in the near future. The “transition costs” of moving from the Main Street to the Amherst campus were also discussed at Tuesday’s meeting. Dr. Ketter explained that it has been understood, for some time, that the $650 million allocated for construction at the Amherst campus would also have to cover the costs of relocating various departments and equipment. He indicated, however, that more money would be needed to cover both the construction and the transition. The Spectrum In other business; Dr. Ketter compared this year’s applications from high school seniors with last year’s. The University has received 14,325 applications this year, he said, a slight increase over last year’s 14,122. Additionally, 5238 transfer applications have been received, another increase over last year’s figure of 5053. Equal Opportunity Program applicants also jumped from 1339 to 1699. Dr. Ketter contended, this indicates that “Buffalo is still a very desirable place to apply for incoming freshmen,” and contrasted this to the declining applications that other institutions have experienced. He also indicated that applications to the Medical School have also increased. He then announced that several prestigious instructors will be joining the faculty next semester, including one “senior faculty member” from Cornell. These individuals were invited, he said, under special permission, and were exceptions to the University-wide hiring freeze. Their acceptance. Dr. Ketter said, indicates that this University is also desirable for faculty. He attributed this to the quality of the Amherst campus facilities, and the University’s reputation for its “quality of students.'” Vacancy to be filled A vice-president for Academic Affairs will be chosen to fill the psoition which has been vacant for almost a year, Dr. Ketter also announced. The initial list of 1100 applicants has been narrowed down to two finalists, who will visit the campus with their wives within the next month. Dr. Ketter said they will be interviewed by numerous officials during their visit, and that evaluations will be solicited and considered in the final selection. Friday, 18 April 1975 State University of New York at Buffalo Vol. 25, No. 79 Ketter’s letter proposes split of athletics and intramurals by Bruce Engel Sports Editor President University Robert Ketter has proposed a complete of separation intercollegiate athletics intramurals and recreation. The plan would call on the state to fund intramurals and recreation while the “Student Association (SA) recognize and and responsibility for intercollegiate athletics, including initial professional staff.” Dr. Ketter’s plan was circulated in a letter to various segments of the University community. He termed it the most significant statement he has made on athletics since the decision to drop football in 1971. Dr. Ketter stressed, however, assume full that his letter, which represents intercollegiate athletics within the jurisdiction of Student Affairs is a from the significant change present system and clearly athletics from intramurals and recreation which would remain with the School of Health Education. Academic base Dr. Ketter’s letter calls for the intramural and recreation program to be strengthened and given a solid academic base. He indicated he would like to see more people, faculty, both students and separates participating in these programs. Dr. Ketter claims that intramurals and recreation “can be highly compatible with the a significant departure from the present program, is far from the final word on the subject. k Now is the time “This might not be the best way, but at least it’s a place to start,” he said. “If in fact there are better plans for this, now is the time for them to be brought forward.” Over the past few years, and authority funding over athletics have been a continual headache for the Administration, Athletic Department and SA, which funds the program through mandatory student fees. Student fees currently athletic expenses like pay food, transportation, equipment and supplies for the intercollegiate teams. But the coaches receive • their salaries from the state as teachers, and are allowed to substitute coaching time for a portion of their required teaching hours. The Ketter plan also calls for SA to hire an interim athletic director, responsible to both SA and the Vice President for Placing Student Affairs. I bill, there is a lot of support for it but money is ?o tight it is hard to predict whether it will pass. The bill has been in the Senate for three years but has yet to come to a vote. Ask die trustees However, Dr. Kettcr said he is not counting on this legislation to fund intramurals and recreation. If state funding of intramurals and recreation is desired by the officials here, he is prepared to ask the Trustees for permission to take the funds out of the general University budget. Intramurals and recreation is budgeted for about $60,000 annually. Regarding the funding of athletics. Dr. Ketter said he would like to see either a separate student fee go directly to athletics or a set percentage of the fee go directly towards athletics every year. This would simplify and stabilize the funding procedure but would represent a departure from both Trustee and SA policy. The concerning Robert Ketter strengthening of the School of Health Education, whereas intercollegiate athletics cannot.” He believes the state should fund these programs to a greater extent than it does now. Currently, the state provides facilities and professional staff while the students provide funds for the operating budget. A bill now by the State Senate Finance Committee calls for the state to spend S310,000 on intramurals and recreation throughout the SONY system. According to Bob Davis, an aide to Senator James McFarland, who is sponsoring the biggest questions Dr. Kettcr’s letter concern the idea that coaches’ salaries would be paid by student fees and coaches would be hired and fired by an athletic director answerable to SA. It has been speculated that many of the present coaches would not work under these conditions. Coaches Richard Siggelkow, who, as Vice President for Student Affairs would be responsible for athletics under the proposed system, did not think this would be a problem. “They would just have to take the gamble,” Dr. Siggelkow said. “I think the plan is workable. There are a lot of qualified coaches out there,” he added. Dr. Siggelkow said that while accept this added he would he was not responsibility, campaigning for it and that he —continued on Assembly approves allocation for Albany rally by Clem Colucci Special Features Editor The Student Assembly, in a heated three and one half hour meeting, voted down a constitutional amendment proposed by Richard Sokolow to make financial referenda binding on the Student Association' (SA). It also approved a $1300 allocation for buses to bring students to a demonstration in Albany calling for amnesty for the Attica defendants. Mr. Sokolow’s proposal would have changed Article VIII, section I of the SA Constitution removing the restriction on binding financial referenda. He described the provision as “arbitrary” and said it “shows a basic distrust of the ability of students to decide where they want their money to go.” Student Judiciary Chief Justice Larry Katz told the Assembly that the suit catling for the Judiciary to declare the provision unconstitutional had been turned down. Mr. Katz said the Judiciary did not have jurisdiction over the matter since it would have involved the “paradox” of declaring a section of the Constitution unconstitutional. He said the issues the suit raised “go right to the heart of student government,” and urged the either the Assembly or a Assembly to use the “proper mechanism” referendum to decide the issue. — — —continued on page 6— page 4— �Students across the state remain oblivious to the Attica situation verdict in the trial of Dacajeweiah and Charlie Joe Pernasalice.

Stone between the lines workingin the aftermath of the April 5 convictions Ms, .Wolff and Ms. Gooch said the committee is now focusing its efforts on the April 28 march in Albany in support of Assemblyman Arthur Eve’s bill, which calls for total amnesty for the Attica Brothers. They stressed that the bill calls for amnesty for all political charges stemming from the 1971 uprising and does not concern itself with the charges for which they were formally imprisoned. Accordingly, the committee has just sent out information packets to 150 schools across the state, including high schools in the Albany area, to gain support for the march. Included in the packet is a letter of instrduction, a chronology of Attica-related events, an emotional letter to students, copies of The Spectrum Extra and Attica News an indictment sheet naming all the defendants and the charges against them, Attica resolutions passed by the Student Association, and people’s petitions supporting the Assembly bill. Also included is an Attica Now leaflet, stating the reasons for the march. The number of people who will attend the march depends on the publicity it receives throughout the state, Ms. Goch said. “We must call student leaders at all schools and impress upon them the importance of tbe event,” Ms. Goch added. Student response in Buffalo has already increased with the formation of the committees and the appearance of speakers in Haas Lounge. There is also a growing awareness of the Attica situation at Buffalo State College, where a support group has recently been formed. Because they were on vacation, Buff. State students did not participate in the April 2 demonstration. A firm rapport is nonetheless being established between the two schools. Ms. Wolff stressed that the Monday night Attica Support Group meetings in Norton Hall room 344 are open to everyone.

University may institute general ed requirement A “general education” requirement for University freshmen may be instituted if proposals presented to a Faculty-Senate committee are carried out, according to Dave Shapiro, Student Association (SA) Academic Affairs Coordinator. The Faculty-Senate’s Educational Planning and Policy Committee, chaired by Psychology professor Ira Cohen, is currently investigating two different ways of broadening the educational of students here. One of the proposals if for a system of two tracks. An “honors” track would give incoming freshmen the option of taking four courses in the “theory of man.” The other track would require entering freshmen to take a course in basic English. “The thought is that students are too constricted in their majors,” said Mr.. Shapiro, a committee member. “What they (the committee) wants is science minors who can iVork Review English the New who" can read of majors departments. Each semester, the sections would all revolve around a common theme. FTE’s counted The proposal circulated among the committee members states that “participating faculty should be generalists with a desire to teach outside their own specialties.” It also suggests that academic departments which contribute teachers to the program could count the students in sections taught by its members as full-time equivalent students in their own departmental courses. Full-time equivalents (FTE’s) play a significant role in determining the number of faculty lines a department or division receives. Mr. Shapiro predicted that there is relatively little chance that the proposal for the honors “track” could be implemented in the near future, mainly because there are “about eight” competing versions of the same idea before the committee. Even if everyone on the committee wanted to set up an honors track, it would be difficult for the committee to just decide among the eight. The chances for the freshman course are somewhat better, Mr. Shapiro said. The committee will be meeting today to decide if a rough draft of the plan should be What a Beautify!

Problem seen The memo also listed newly adjusted prices for fees, charges and deposits for University services, asking that they be checked for completeness and medical school Similarly, transcripts are duplicated and mailed out by the American Medical Center’s Application Center. Pre-med advisor Josephine Capuana said that between 80 and 85 medical schools belong to the service, including most of those located in New York State and the surrounding area, and most of those which are popular among premed students here. Dental School applications are also handled through a transcript service. One potential problem exists for students who wish to forward their seventh semester grades to schools they have already applied to. Transcript services do not handle seventh semester grades, so students wishing to strengthen their chances for acceptance will have to pay the $2 fee for each extra After appropriate changes have been made, the schedule will be sent to President Robert Ketter for review and then to SUNY Centraol Administration for final approval, the mod. The approved schedule of charges wil be published several times in both The Reporter and The Spectrum before the beginning of the fall semester and will be incorporated in various catalogs and handbooks. Final approval from SUNY Central, and subsequent publication in the campus media, is not expected until the summer. Committee work Ed Doty, Vice President for Finanance and Management, explained that the new prices were agreed upon by a State University-Wide Committee comprised of campus presidents and students. The committee sought to establish some consistency among all the various SUNY branches in the fees, charges and deposits, Mr. Doty said, to eliminate the wide discrepancies that already existed He said that transcript costs varied throughout SUNY, and the reason for changing was that “no one likes to be in a position to charge more than other schools.” In general, the shift in charges would have little impact on this campus, he observed. Seniors who seek admission to graduate schools usually send out applications to between 12 and 16 schools, each requiring a seperate copy of the transcript. The new $2 charge can mean anywhere copy. Charges for various services and securities include residence halls deposits, music locker rentals, library penalties for overdue books, and gymnasium locker and towel rental fees. Three places Mr. Doty refused to comment on how prices at the State University at Buffalo compare with those at other SUNY branches. Money from fees, charges and deposits are forward to three places: the SUNY income Fund, where it is used to bolster the existing SUNY operating budget; the Faculty-Student Association (FSA) agency bank income account; and reimbursable accounts, which are bank accounts set up for a specific purpose, like broken windows or lost lab equipment.

Lon Nol was put into power following a CIA-organized coup that overthrew neutralist government leader Norodom Sihanouk in 1970. Remnants of the Lon Nol government offered a ceasefire to Prince Sihanouk, who is exiled in Peking. Sihanouk is considered titular head of the Royal Government of National Union of Cambodia, a broad umbrella organization of various national organizations. The Yugoslav agency Tanjug reported from Peking that Sihanouk advised the remaining leaders to flee the country and allow the rebels to take power. Airport The Phnom Penh Airport had fallen to the liberation forces as The Spectrum went to press, and had seized control of a large city market, a vital bridge, the fringes of a northern industrial suburb and a southern business district. Rebel gunners have surrounded the city, destroyed two major fuel depots, and taken control of the provincial capital Takhmau, five miles south of Phnom Penh. Reports have confirmed that the liberation forces encountered little resistance, while significant numbers of the crumbling Lon Nol army deserted to the rebels. With most of Cambodia in the hands of the liberation forces, the falling of the capital is in the final stage of the war. Move on Saigon Meanwhile, in South Vietnam, gunners from the People’s Liberation Army of the Provisional Revolutionary Government shelled Thieu’s largest t fighter base at Bien Hoa, 15 miles from Saigon, while additional divisions appear to be moving on the capital. Thieu was installed in power with Air Force Marshall Ky in 1965 by the United States government, two years after the assassination of the country’s former dictator, Ngo Dinh Diem. In 1967, Thieu gained dominance in the government in a notoriously rigged election, and strengthened his hold in the 1971 election whe*’ he barred all opposition candidates from participation. Ford said this week he is Most observers are unconvinced that food and medicine couldn’t save Thieu from military defeat, and critics point out that money for food, channelled to Saigon in the past, was used for additional military weapons. ‘Forced’ evacuations The Giai Phong Press Agency of the Provisional Revolutionary Government has reported that life has returned to normal after Thieu’s troops and bombers left. The news agency has charged that thousands of refugees were “forced” to flee their homes by the terrorizing and looting of Saigon’s crumbling army, and by massive saturation bombings by the American-financed Saigon Air Force. In various provinces, the Provisional Revolutionary provided has Government transportation for the displaced civilian population to return to their homes. In Da Nang, the Press Agency reports, preparations are being made to set up a local government, with broad sectors of people being guaranteed representation in the popularly elected bodies. Workers have worked around the clock to electricity, restore water and supplies communication lines. International recognition The Press Agency reported that the Vietnam Women’s Union, organized in both North and South called all. international Vietnam, has upon organizations and concerned individuals to press the Ford administration to end the evacuation of Vietnamese children, claiming that it is “forced.” Some American anti-war organizations have termed the much publicized “baby-lift" as "kidnapping” and have urged it to stop. The Provisional Revolutionary Government was formed in 1968 by a wide range of organizations and individuals, students, including professionals, workers, small businessmen and others, to govern territory that was ccttrolled by their member as a “provisional” organizations. Described including both Communists and government, independents, they had established diplomatic relations with 37 foreign countries by 1973.

Times HEARTS Ml) Mims One economic by-product of the world arms race is increased sales arms exporters. Foreign demand for American weapons accounts for over $8 billion annually, with deliveries to foreign buyers many of them in the Near East growing at the fastest rate in American history. Also, domestic expenditures for arms and products, such as uniforms and food, total about $15 million. For the most part, the money for these arms comes from “petrodollars.” The sale of weapons systems has become a big business for many American manufacturers and has helped balance the decline in domestic military sales after the U.S. withdrew from Vietnam. These American manufacturers, however, are becoming increasingly concerned over recent Congressional criticism that military exports are too heavy, thereby provoking a Mideast arms race. Additionally, conflict-of-interest, or “war profiteer” charges have been leveled at firms employing former military officers. for U.S. — — Balance see threatened Political observers are very concerned about the “disproportional” amount of military arms being sold to Arab nations. U.S. corporations have recently sold jet fighters to Iran and Saudi Afabia, anti-tank missies to Oman, and air defense missies to Kuwait. Alarmingly, Israel Over three-quarters of foreign military sales come from the Middle East, of which Iran and Israel make the largest part. The rise in foreign orders for the American equipment has been rapid. Orders for fiscal 1974 were more than double the level for 1973 and roughly eight times greater than the late 1960’s. Among the manufacturers were the Bell Helicopter Company (a division of Textron, Inc.), the'General Electric Company, the Northrop Corporation, the McDonnell-Douglas Corporation and the Raytheon Company and the EMC Corporation. According to the Pentagon, these six companies received over $2 billion in contracts from foreign arms buyers pver the last two-years. Despite the involvement of numerous American companies in weapons manufacturing, only a few control most of the business. According to a Defense Department report released in February, 132 training and technical assistance teams from five companies were operating in 34 countries under “foreign military sales” contracts. Current statistics show the U.S. is by far the largest weapons exporter. In 1973, American corporations were responsible for more than half of the world’s arms exports while the Soviet Union was second with 27.5 percent, according to an Arms Control and Disarmament Agency report. Other countries, including France and Britain, are also involved in the sale of large quantities of military equipment. Britain, for example, is reportedly negotiating a major arms agreement with Libya that might include hundreds of millions of dollars in aircraft fighters, battleships and other military equipment. Iran first A major controversy developed when Iran was allowed to buy fighter in 1973 even though the Pentagon regarded it as the most advanced equipment available. The Secretary of Defense reported last February that the U.S. Navy gave Iran “equal priority” which could conceivably allow Iran delivery of its F-I4’s before the Navy was fully supplied. Also, Secretary of State Henry Kissinger said Iran and Israel have expressed interest in Rockwell International Corporation’s Condor missies even though the Defense Department has hesitated to purchase them because of their high cost. The controversy also applies to trained personnel. According to the Congressional General Accounting Office, nearly 500 military technical assistance personnel in Iran possessed skills which were in “critically short” supply in the U.S. armed forces. Defense experts forecast a continued rise in military sales lasting at least several years, partially because of the large surge in multi-year contracts.

The Spectrum Friday, 18 April 1975 . — 838-5533 _ �Students urged to look past aid to education Consumer advocate Ralph Nader, former Senator Eugene McCarthy and Congressman Richard Schweiker (D-Penn.) urged students attending the National Student Lobby (NSL) Conference to combat the nation’s problems. **I commend students for speaking out as they did during the Vietnam war because it did have a mitigating effect on many of us,” Congressman Schweiker told the students. He said that while their main priority might be an aid to higher education, they should consider the “parameters” that determine how much money namely, will go to education heavy government spending on the military. “One hundred sixty billion — Student lobby fighting against proposed federal aid cuts Federal aid to higher education was the number one priority at this year’s National Student Lobby (NSL) conference, which met in Washington, D.C. last weekend. Representatives from more than 40 of the nation’s universities gathered to protest President Ford’s proposed 196 million dollar decrease in student assistance programs for 1976. Originally, the NSL organized as a permanent lobby in Washington to influence legislative policy on issues concerning education that affect college students. The five-day conference acquainted students with the - issues and trained them in proper lobbying techniques before they actually met with Congressional leaders on Capitol Hill. Limit assistance The proposed cutbacks in aid to higher education would reduce the number of students under the five federal assistance programs: Basic Equal Opportunity Grants (BEOG), Supplementary Equal Opportunity Grants (SEOG), National Direct Student Loans, College Work Study and State Scholarship Incentive, The NSL pointed out that President Ford favors the elimination of SEOG and National Direct Student Loans by reducing work study by $50 million, a move that would cause f00,000 students to lose their jobs. The NSL believes students will be forced to borrow more or seek outside employment and urged of the Emergency Appropriations Bill, which calls for a $255 million increase in work study, and BEOG’s $110 million for the SEOG program. Other issues discussed at the conference were discriminatory practices against women and minorities in colleges and the possibility of defeating the Holt Amendment which would prohibit the cut-off of federal funding to universities violating the Family Rights and Privacy Education Act, which guarantees passage students the right to view nearly all previously confidential files. Learning to lobby Students then met with professional lobbyests Dick Clark from Common Cause, John Isaacs from the Americans for Democratic Action (ADA), Congressmen Bob Carr (Michigan), George Miller (California), and John Heinze (Pennsylvania) to learn lobby techniques. “Be brief and clear, know your material, be polite and do not antagonize your representatives,” Mr. Clark advised the students, who switched roles with the Congressmen during a simulated lobbying session. Afterwards, Mr. Miller said the session was helpful in giving direction to students interested in governmental procedures. He also said he is convinced that an organized student body could be effective. “Today, students in California a major voice in governmental policy of education and I hope the same thing happens here,” Congressman have Miller maintained. Problems Many students felt, however, of the Student Association of the they were not properly prepared to lobby before legislators, and soon became disillusioned. Some, in fact, left the conference early. Ray Glass, legislative director lOR TOAST PLUS 2 COUNTRY; 1FRESH EGGS, as you-like 'em.* \ 3 *1.05 3300 SHERIDAN DRIVE I ; State of New York (SASU), also had negative feelings about the conference. He said it dwelled on internal politics such as elections and resolutions rather than “drilling” students on the key issues facing education. The lobby session between student representatives from New York State and Senator Javits’ aids on education emipted into a somewhat hostile meeting. When a State University of Binghamton representative presented his argument, Gregg Fusco, educational assistant to Senator Javits, scolded him for not sticking to the issues. Despite the emphasis on courtesy during the training session, the student representative told Mr. Fusco, “Stop jumping on my back.” Several other students reported that they found their representatives dollars has been spent on Indochina. All economists agree that this is what started the present inflation,” Mr. Schweiker said. He explained that the United States could easily cut five billion dollars “if not more” from the military budget without hurting defense. This could be done by reconsidering the necessity of before we pour more money into it,” he said. Congressional support On the more positive side. New York Congresswoman Shirley Chisolm and Senator Javits came out in strong support of the amendments supporting aid to education. Ms. Chisolm explained that although the Royal Obey Stokes Amendment to increase SEOG’s by $110 million would pass with a simple majority, the bill would definitely be vetoed by the President. “The President has already told us not to send him any more of those kind of bills because he will automatically veto them,” she asserted. Ms. Chisolm added that “money for education should be a numoer one priority in a democratic society.” Mr. Javits then promised a group of student representatives his continued support for aid to higher education. “Not enough money is spent on higher education and I will do my best to see this legislation go through,” he declared. i percent of the money in the federal Basic Equal Opportunity Grant program (BEOG) was left unused this year because of a “miscalculation” by the federal government, according to Mr. Schweiker. Nadar discusses activism Ralph Nader addressed the NSL on the trend of student activism since the fifties. “In the fifties there was grave conformity, intimidation,” Mr. Nader said. “Beginning in the sixties there was a breakdown in the Ivory tower myth and students became actively involved in civil rights, the Vietnam war, poverty and pollution. These issues are still with us today, but students are too much like they were in the fifties,” he continued. Mr. Nader said the nation’s schools and industries were making deliberate attempts to “juvenalize” students and keep them involved in “trivia” so they will be unable to upset the status quo. As examples, the noted divert the attention of students. This trend has also made itself apparent in higher educational systems, according to Mr. Nader. “The trend in the sixties was to give students more responsibility in colleges. Today, students serve low positions on advisory boards where they make up a small minority,” he said. to Spend own money “Juvenalization” in schools is most obvious in the small amount and evasive. must learn how to cut the inflationary costs of education also deprived students of financial aid this year, the said. Twenty-five Congressman consumer advocate pointed out how the “teenage market” industries use cosmetics and fads unapproachable Sessions with members of the President’s staff also proved frustrating to some NSL members. After meeting with members of Pres. Ford’s Domestic Council, Mr. Glass reported, “They sought ridiculous arguments to defeat all of NSL’s positions.” In fact, one assistant to Vice President Rockefeller said he would be reluctant to see money cut from defense to fund higher education because of what he terms “too much waste in education. We “Poor government supervision” has of control students have over their own school budgets, Mr. Nader explained. “Students must go ‘hand in hand’ to administrators for permission on how to spend their own money.” Mr. Nader pointed out that a major obstacle which prevents —Walker Dick Clark of Common Cause addressing last weekend's student conference in Washington building the 15-20 billion dollar defense systems that are being planned, he explained. Confusion Mr. Schweiker insisted that systems are in Congress because during debates, legislators are too often confused by technical terms thrown at them by military proponents. The “poor supervision” of the federal government is responsible for the “economic tragedy” and “disunity” that has taken place in this country, Mr. Schweiker went on. Having served for ten years on the Congressional Committee which oversees the CIA, Mr. Schweiker explained that for eight of those years, the CIA never informed the committee that they were involved in a war with Laos. “It is a sad commentary on the system if a secret agency can conduct its own war for eight years without Congress knowing about.it,” he said. expensive weapon never defeated Mr. Schweiker reported that Congress is planning to investigate other CIA activities particularly its alleged involvement in Chile and in political assassinations. students from organizing effectively is the “bickering” that goes on between student groups on campus, citing as an example the ongoing feud between student governments and Public Interest Research Groups (PIRG). He told NSL students that if they would organize as one group, they could investigate issues like the validity of the ETS (Educational Testing Service) by finding out what sort of ties its Board of Trustees might have with politics or big business. Mr. Nader also urged students to use their resources to investigate national issues as well. “If you are interested in chemistry or biology investigate water contamination, if you are interested in sociology, political science or economics, investigate crime and corruption in the government.” Mr. McCarthy gave students at the NSL convention similar advice. “You should have a strong influence on federal aid to education but you should also look beyond those issues that affect you in your role as citizens. You have a responsibility to who working people are threatened with unemployment and to the poor, aged and minorities of this country,” he declared.

Most of them were announced at Assembly If the legislative cuts are not restored in the supplemental budget, many additional jobs will be lost through massive retrenchment, faculty and staff layoffs and cutbacks in student services. Coupled with projected enrollment increases, such layoffs and cutbacks will deal a crippling blow to the educational quality of the University. The four Medical Centers of the State University which train more physicians and nurses than almost any other University in the nation also provide essential health care services to the citizens of New York. They too have been especially hard-hit by the budget, and will be forced to reduce the number of hospital beds and curtail emergency room and other essential services, many of which generate state revenues. The cost of medical supplies has skyrocketed, and understaffing can seriously threaten the accreditation of SUNY's teaching hospitals. Failure to increase funding in these crucial areas will not only damage the University and its ability to provide quality health care; it will also cut sharply into the State's already-scarece medical services. — — While we realize, along with' the United University Professionals (UUP) and the Student Association of the State University (SASU), that the State's fiscal picture is bleak, and that it may seem expedient in the short run to cut back in expenditures for public higher education, such artificial economies will do serious damage to the economy in the long run. Both the State and the nation depend upon highly sophisticated management skills, a constantly expanding technology, and a skilled, intelligent and flexible labor force. High quality public education, available to all citizens, is therefore one of the wisest investments the State can make. Billions of tax dollars have already been used to construct the State University. To understaff, under-enroll and under-supply it now would simply waste the massive investment made by the citizens of New York State in building their University. Over the past twelve months, unemployment has skyrocketed, while inflation has systematically hindered the ability of many to afford essential services. The tuition level of the State University, however, is ninth highest of the nation's 130 public colleges and universities, even though New York is first in the nation in State support private colleges. Our State government must also remember that 69 percent of the students of State University come from families with combined incomes of $12,000 or less, and nine out of 10 from families with incomes of $20,000 or less. Unless the State is willing to expend public funds to maintain the high quality of services offered by State University, additional revenues will have to be generated from those least able to afford them. As a consequence, many will be unable to attend institutions of higher education and will be denied the opportunity of realizing their full potential. For all these reasons, we strongly support the students, faculty and non-teaching professional staff of the State University of New York in calling upon the State Legislature to restore the operating budget of the State University to a level sufficient for maintaining high quality, low-cost public higher education for all the citizens of New York State. meetings. This does not mean, that Assemblypersons were the only people who did not attend our meetings. On the contrary, the only people who attended from outside the Committee were Mr. Jackalone, Mr. Salimando and Mr. Burgess, each of whom came a total of once over the course of well over a month and a half. 2) Members of the ad-hoc committee claifhed that the format was not explained to them until one week before the referendum. In fact, Mr. Lange gave a report, as scheduled, to the Assembly at the meeting of November 20, 1974. At that time he asked the Assembly for help on the question of student representation. Once again, no real action was taken by the Assembly. 3) Members of the ad-hoc committee claimed that there was no attempt to inform the public about the real workings of the new Constitution. In fact, the advertisements did contain a number of details about the new Constitution; whatever was not available to the student in the ads was made public through the text of the document and through several analyses done in both the news and editorial pages of The Spectrum. 4) Members of the ad-hoc committee claimed that the new Constituion fails to provide restraints on the power of the Executive Committee. They charge that the Executive Committee will dominate the Student Senate and the Task Forces. In fact, there are ten members of the Executive Committee; there are thirty-five other members of the Student Senate, all of whom are expected to show up at all meetings that they are involved in. If the ten Executive members can sway the thirty-five other Senators so easily, or without cause, that is the students’ fault. In addition, we have raised the quorun to 40 percent, as opposed to this year, when, with a 20 percent quorum it was possible for the Executive Committee to actually be a majority of those present. This will not happen under the new Constitution. 5) Members of the ad-hoc committee claimed t . - > that there was only one evidence of dissent, an open letter written by Robert Cohen and the former director of NYPIRG. They claim that this is evidence that the Constitution was railroaded through. In fact, I believe this shows that the students agreed with the basic premises and details of the Constitution. 6) Members of the ad-hoc committee claimed that there has been no change in power; that only the name had been changed. In fact, there has been a considerable change in power, as the Student Senate has been given a new not budgets. The Student emphasis; legislation Senate will have neither the hassle or the power to deal with the budget. That will be the job of the Financial Assembly, a group of 53 students (more than attend most Assembly meetings), made up of the Senate Finance Committee, the officers and the coordinators, and the Student Activities Task Force, which in itself represents all groups that receive SA monies, plus publicly elected members. This allows the Student Senate to deal more effectively with other governance groups on this campus instead of wasting three months of its time on comparatively trivial budgets. 7) Members of the ad-hoc committee claimed that there will be less student representation than ever before. In fact, there will probably be more!! There are 45 members of the Student Senate. They are all elected in one way or another from the student body. There will be more people in the task forces than were ever in the Student Assembly. At its largest, the Student Assembly had 120 members, representing 4800 students. That’s only one-third — the possible number. 8) Members of the ad-hoc committee claimed that the new Constitution has inherent weaknesses. In fact, the aspects that they point out are certainly not earthshaking in their importance; they can be ascribed to mental omissions or typographical errors and are easily remedied. They are picking on petty points. 9) Members of the ad-hoc committee claim that there will be an underrepresentation o lubs and interest groups on the Student Senate. In fact, there are ten Senators each from the Academic Affaire Task Force and the Student Affairs Task Force. However, there are fifteen from the Student Activities Task Force; ten that are elected from the public and five that are elected from within the Task Force itself. As to a decrease in club and interest group representation, I can’t see anything wrong with that. After all, they couldn’t have too mpeh more representation than they have now. The entire idea behind the new Constitution is to prevent interest groups and clubs from dominating SA as they have in the past and as they do now; its to allow the SA freedom from crisis and paralysis; its to allow for representation of all students, not just Norton Hacks. This reactionary move on the part of a few disgruntled members seems to me to be an attempt to retain personal power that would be lost under the new Constitution; these people are the worst facet of student government, and I submit that they are the true elitists.

We might, from time to tome, shuffle around a few of the props but we don’t have to bother inventing a paradise when we have already seen one. For some, it might be that paradise looked like the fantasy land created in George Pal’s film version of The Time Machine. Everyone would be blond, they would play by a brook all day, they would have all the most delicious fruits and food at their fingertips, and their minds would be so imbecilic and sloth-like that there would be no such thing as unhappiness.

Griffith refined the elipse. He realized that many of the tiny units of an action could be omitted, and still the whole action could be understood. While Griffith was doing his own editing, he discovered the psychological importance of the length of a shot In 1926, he wrote, “Pace is a the life of a new word to describe the intangible something that picture sweeps the drama across the screen in absorbing cycles of action and suspense. It is a part of the pulse of life itself, and being common to all human consciousness, its insistent beat has the curious power to seduce and sway the emotions, as the rhythmic tread of marching troops sways a suspended bridge. When the pace of a picture weds the pulse of an audience, the results are astonishing. Pace is the secret of the director’s art" Griffith felt his power as a director was similar to the power of a hypnotist, and he used the screen to mesmerize his audience. “Add pace the ebb and flow of pleasurable tides of excitement, the rhythmic movement of events toward the ecstatic consummation of romantic and and it is easy for adventurous dreams people to delude themselves into believing that, in some strange way, the romance and adventure are their own.” ... - - - -jUpf architect, he went to Louis Sullivan to become an apprentice. Sullivan kept him, and assigned him to all the drudge work. When Jack Nicholson set out to become a great actor, he went to Paramount Studios. Paramount hired him as a messenger in the mail room. When D.W. Griffith went to Edwin Porter with a script, Porter hired Griffith for the lead role in his film, Rescued from an Eagle’s Nest (1907). Griffith acquired the title “father of film technique” for his refinement of filmic techniques, some used first by Porter himself. He refined cutting techniques, the "close-up," he established the importance of pacing, filmed on location, and sophisticated every basic unit of filmmaking. Boring? When the audience asked of a film “Why don’t they do something?” they were really disturbed by a lengthy shot, according the Griffith. In 1926, before sound, action was important to all films, and not only an ingredient for adventure films. Mash was to Altman as Birth of a Nation was to Griffith. In terms of —continued on p«9« 12— The producer’s echo Griffith realized that there was really no need to keep the distance between a stage and an audience. To emphasize action in an actor’s arms, he filmed only the actor’s arms. "The public will never buy only half an actor,” the producers told him, the way Robert Altman’s producers tell him, "But they won’t hear you, Robert,” when he overlaps dialogue in his present day films. With Griffith, the audiences liked and bought In fact, that is one of the remarkable things about Griffith even - Supplement to The Spectrum �To be in dreams awake by Leslie Fiedler I have been challenged to make an aesthetics of popular culture, and I’m a man who has been saying all of his life that he doesn’t believe that aesthetics is real even for what we used to call high culture. But I am, in fact, engaged in a long process (I think it is going to be long; it’s overtaken me and is working its way out in my head and God knows when I will finish it) that is going to end in a book for which I now have a title and not much else: “What Was Literature?” Let me explain to you that I’m a man who doesn’t believe that aesthetics in the narrow sense is a viable concept, because I don’t think of works as existing formally. I think of literature not as existing as an object, as words on a page, but always as being images in heads which themselves are in society and, therefore, the only way in which one can talk about literature meaningfully is to talk about psychology first and society second. It is possible to talk in terms both analytic and evaluative. I don’t believe in criticism which evades the essential task of saying something is good or bad or I Iik6 it or I hate it. We need to examine the possibility of working out a way of talking about pop books, analytic and evaluative at the same time. Talking about works which depend for their meaning primarily on the use of words, whether those words be spoken or written or some combination of spoken and written. Janus But I am a fork-tongued speaker. I’m on both sides of the question as to whether there can be a criticism of popular literature. I’m on both sides of the question as to whether a distinction between popular art and high art is valuable at all. It is in the essential nature of popular art that it is, in a way which is disconcerting to traditional aestheticians, especially formalists of any kind, independent of, in some deep sense, indifferent to media. The medium is not the message in popular art far from it. The. medium in some way is irrelevant to the message of popular art, since popular art works in a very striking way by doing what all literary art does, what all art does by evoking primordial images. But the way in which the popular art evokes primordial images. But the immediately transferable from one medium to another. It has always been the nature of mythic art, and popular art is in some sense mythic art (popular literature comes into existence at the point where myth is married to technology) that it can be told in any number of words and can be rendered in any kind of medium. One doesn’t have to think of right now. Popular literature is very old. As a matter of fact, the first form of popular art in our civilization is the novel. We have mistakenly been trying to kidnap the novel into high art, but it was from the start popular literature. When Dickens wrote the most popular of his books, The Pickwick Papers, not only was it possible for another author to continue the story of Pickwick (George Reynolds) in other words and other terms but immediately Pickwick got changed into hangings on the wall, ceramic jugs, a cigar, and Pickwick entered into the popular domain. — — — Film and book The chief example of this process in our own time is that interchange-exchange which goes on between the film and the book. Let me give you a recent example. “Cabaret" was first written as a series of stories by a man who thought of himself as an elitist artist, Christopher Isherwood, product of Oxford and the years between the wars in Berlin, and a friend of W.H. Auden. Isherwood’s book, after it had come into existence, passed out of his hands, out of the world of the elitist art to which he thought it belonged into the public domain of pop art It was made into a play called I Am a Camera which became a film called / Am a Camera which became a musical called Cabaret which became a film called Cabaret and when the Academy Award was given to Cabaret, the name of Christopher Isherwood was not mentioned at all, because in some way the figure which had come to possess that work, and made it her own, was the figure of Liza Minelli whom nobody was able to experience without thinking of Judy Garland, which brought in The Wizard of Oz, and there was this composite work of popular literature which ranged from the director Minelli to the actress Liza Minelli to Judy Garland to The Wizard of Oz to Frank Baum who’s the father of us all and one of the greatest American novelists. Author, author? It is the nature of the popular arts and of popular literature that the author is finally as irrelevant as the medium. Popular art is not private property. People may make dough on it. Usually it is not the guy who would be called technically the author. It is exploited commerically but popular art belongs to nobody. No sooner is it released than it passes out of the hands of its individual author, as it passes out of its medium, into the great communal imagination. The history of any popular genre (and I have been thinking about the possibility of a history of pop as well as the possibility of a criticism of pop) depends less on the individual genius of lonely makers than on certain basic and profound shifts in communal consciousness and in the collective unconsciousness, which are probably basically determined by changes in technology. The development of the popular art is bound most intimately to change in technology. Think of the moment at which the Japanese invented (toward the end of the eighteenth century) a process that made it possible to sell color prints of actresses, prostitutes, and actors for the equivalent of a penny apiece to the audience. Think of the role played in the development of jazz, for instance, by the invention and perfection of the phonograph. Every time the technology of printing changed, the nature of the novel changed. When the making of cheap paper became possible around the year 1820, a new kind of novel came Supplement to The Spectr.vyiL into existence and a new audience for that novel. If we ever end up finally studying Pop Culture in any depth (and I have some reservations which I will state in a moment) the history of technology will play the role which has been played by the study of biography in illiminating works of high art, and we will need finally, if the enterprise is to succeed in any substantial way, to subtilize the study of technology, just as the study of biography was subtilized by psycho-analytical interpretations in-the post-Freudian and post-Jungian world. The study of technology will have to become, be framed in the form of, a mytho-history or a psycho-history of technology. And when we have written the psycho-mytho history of technology (I sound like Polonius; I’m sorry) we will have written a history of popular culture. Traditional aesthetics will be useless to us in this regard. Because all traditional aesthetics are elitist aesthetics. Even Marxist aesthetics are basically elitist aesthetics. Concealed in all evaluations, performed by traditional estheticians, evaluations which are framed as if they were distinctions between good and bad, is an underground or bootlegged distinction between high and low, which is to say between superior stuff which pleases a tiny few and ordinary schock, trash, junk which gives joy to the larger portion of mankind. No way In any mass society, whether it be capitalist, socialist, or any mixture of the two, such an aesthetics is impossible. We must be done with all elitist distinctions. The only author who is really useful to us in this regard is Tolstoy, but it turns out that Tolstoy is just an elitist standing on his head. You don’t solve the problem by turning it upside down and saying all the stuff which pleases a few is junk, including Shakespeare and Beethoven and Michelangelo, and Tolstoy himself (as the author ofAnna Karenina). The only stuff which is good is that which joins all of mankind together. I’m tempted by that It would be very simple for me and very satisfactory and make me feel very pious indeed, if I were to say that from now on I will concern myself with reflecting only on the art which joins everybody in the world together adults and children, men and women, naive and sophisticated, uneducated and over-educated but I’m not quite willing to do it, so all I leave you on this score are a series of questions. — — Discriminations What we have to do at this point is to work out a way of discriminating between good and bad, a way of saying persuasively why Love Story is bad and La Traviata is good, though both are pop works which deal with exactly the same theme. If I knew how to say that, I would feel as if I had come a little closer to the solution of this problem. We must dedicate ourselves for the next few years to ending the ghettoization of literature, which is built into all libraries and the giving of all book awards. I’ve just lived through, for instance, the granting of the National Book Award in fiction. It turned out to be impossible for me to persuade my fellow judges to consider seriously any work of literature which could be classified generically as science fiction. I have good news for you. One of the best writers of science fiction in the United States at the moment, which is to say one of the best writers of fiction in the U.S. at the present moment, Ursula LeGuin sneaked a prize as a writer of juveniles, an already ghettoized category that made it possible, and if you are juvenile be begin with, it doesn’t even matter if it is juvenile science fiction. But when Ursula LeGuin stood up, what she said was beautiful. In her acceptance speech, she said, “I hope this —continued on page 6— Friday, 18 April 1975 Dimension . Page five . �—continued from page 5— is felt as a prize not for juveniles but for science fiction, for all the fantasy literature.” The only way of rendering any sense of the reality of American life at the present moment is through fantasy. Our lives are indeed fantastic. It is not impossible to write fiction now. But it is impossible to write traditional fiction, the novel as high art, the novel as experimental aft, the novel as avante-garde, the novel as realistic art. Only schock science fiction, fantasy, can render our lives. To be dream awake • • • Rings If a visitor from Mars came down to earth and said to me, “Give tne a sense of what life in the United States is like at the present moment,” I would say to him, “Watch television but turn off all the regular programs and watch only the commercials.” Because in the commercials there is such free fantasy. Do you really ever look at the commercials? What happens in the commercials would be unbelievable except in a world as unbelievable as the one you and I inhabit. I am spending my time these days watching commercials and soap-operas on television, and reading the juvenile science fiction of Ursula LeGuin. I’m even writing science fiction. What I have said so far would seem to indicate that I am in favor of closing the gap and crossing the border which separates high literature from low literature, the mass audience from the elite audience, the privileged few from the underprivileged many. I’m in favor of crossing that border and I’m in favor of closing that gap, and yet what I want to say now, speaking with the other fork of my tongue, is that we have distinguished three forms of fiction from one another, three forms which are beginning to close together: popular fiction, art fiction, and scripture. We read literature in three ways. Scripture is not to be judged at all. High literature is to be scrutinized carefully according to elaborate ground rules called by the people who love to play those little games of aesthetics. And pop fiction is made to be judged on the basis of how well or how ill it sells on the market. fundamentally alters our sensibilities and our way of perceiving the world. It sends us out of our selves and the world. His term for it was “ekstasis.” If we judge literature in terms of “ekstasis,” we will know why Dracula is such a long-lived and such a successful and such a moving book and why it is now at the basis of cultural developments in America in a way in which no book written contemporaneously with it towards the end of the nineteenth century in England was. If we talk about “ekstasis,” I think we will also have to begin to talk about the archetypal or mythical material which is what, in fact, does produce “ekstasis.” As I said before, if we marry the study of myth to the study of technology, we will have the beginnings for a critical, historical approach to popular literature. A question That takes me to the end of the line, and the hardest question I have to ask myself. Is it worth doing at all? Is it good to do at all? Or is what I am tempted to do merely a last desperate expedient in which I am attempting to protect the value of the skills I have spent my life learning in a world in which they have become obsolete? 1 know that nothing bugs me more than to read some descendant of a descendant of let’s use a mythological name, Richard the original New Critics Porier, for instance trying to write about the lyrics of the Beatles songs in a kind of language which is absolutely inappropriate to it. I who love film know that the way in which most of my colleagues talk about film is really some place deep down underneath ridiculous. And some of the greatest film-makers have set into this. I’ve sworn an oath that any time anybody mentions the word montage any time in my presence I will go out of the room and slam the door behind me. If you want to know what I’m writing in the form of film criticism coming out of the closet at last; I’ve been a secret film critic for years you might take a look at a piece which I’ve just done on Russ Myer and Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. I wrote about the Immoral Mister Tease when no one was writing about Russ Myer. I am told and it touches me more deeply than any tribute I’ve received he keeps over his desk a framed copy of that first review. But that cheers me up. If in some way that gives him validation or a certification, I’m willing to spend my time doing these otherwise futile exercises. But if all I’m finally doing is feeding this stuff into the sausage machine of academic analysis, I hate it; I hate it. I’ve been asked a couple of times recently to come to conventions of science fiction writers, some of whom have become my good friends. And the question they keep asking me is, “Is it good or bad that there are now 2000 courses in science fiction being taught in colleges and universities up and down the United States?” And my first instinct is always to say "Bad.” But it helps honest men make a living, it puts bread and milk in the mouths of their children, not to mention my children, and I too am an honest man. - - - — — — — The long goodbye I think the culture religion, whose ultimate founder is Matthew Arnold, is at the end of the line now. I think that most young people who read nowadays not only make no distinctions between popular literature and high art but read all literature (that which they read at all) as if it were scripture. I think that the people who really read nowadays among the young people, and who write, respond spiritually to literature. And if we are to talk about literature in these terms, I think we must be done with two of the traditional standard attitudes toward understanding what it is that literature does. I think the distinction which separates scripture from high literature is not useful, and it is not useful for us any longer to think of literature as either instructing or delighting in any primary way. I think that the critic who must be our guide is Longinus, who says that when great literature really functions, when it really moves us, it moves us out of our heads and out of our bodies, out of our norma) consciousness. It — Language I guess I believe that the enterprise in which we are concerned is, or could be, might be, would be, a legitimate enterprise, if we could find the language to do it in. I think one of the problems of talking about the popular arts is a problem of finding language language which is not the one hand sniggering and condescending and defensively comic or on the other hand super-eminently respectable. I don’t want to feed into the process which confirms the essential totalitarian nature of the American university. I take it that a characteristic of totalitarian organizations is that under them everything which is not forbidden is required. And it would be ridiculous if we pass from an academic situation in which popular culture is forbidden to a state in which it is required. want to talk about popular literature; I've been trying for many years to do the same thing about the so-called classics of American literature those great disorderly, disorganized books; we have to find a kind of language which will take us as far as possible from that tone that rang in my ears as I grew up. That ex-cathedra! high-church magisterial voice of T.S. Eliot, that miserable man who didn’t even have Ezra Pound’s courage to be a fascist. I would have known what to do if I ever met Ezra Pound. I would have hit him as hard as I could and I would have picked him up and kissed him on both cheeks. But as far as Eliot is concerned, I have no notion of what to do with him except to use him as a horrible example to avoid that kind of voice. think what we have to invent is pop criticism which is to say that we have to invent a kind of criticism which is comic but not sniggering comic, defensive comic, but grand comic; cosmic comic, opening-up comic, irreverent, vulgar criticism which aims to do what popular literature and its absolutely naive, innocent, and blessed heart aims to do: to entertain the largest group of people possible, I like to think that even criticism can be entertaining and that if it is entertaining, it also can release people in the way in which great literature, whether it be pop or high, releases them into that kind of ekstatic state where they no longer recognize the difference between high and low, between real and fancied, between the dream world and the actual world. There has rung in my head for years and years now, as a kind of motif which has guided me, that the best way to tell the truth (it comes from Thoreau), is “to be in dreams awake, to be in dreams awake. think that is what pop literature does at its best I think that is what all literature does at its best, and guess I want to confess to you that it is my belief that criticism is not finally s sub-branch of philosophy called aesthetics. Or it is not objective and scientific. After all, criticism is a form of literature too and criticism can be like other forms of literatire, low and ekstatic at the same time. Somebody once said that the wonderful thing about the Semites is that they can stand in shit up to their eyebrows and that their brows will touch the heavens.

Dimension . Friday, 18 April 1975 *' Supplement to The Spectrum �by Alan Spiegel Film was a new fact for a modern like Faulkner, but for a contemporary like Nabokov it is already a given fact, one of the preeminent facts of the present cultural scene. If the cinema has not yet become the richest art of our time has not yet given us everything we had hoped for it has undoubtedly become the most popular art and possible the most influential. Nowadays it becomes increasingly more attractive for the other arts to play follow-the-leader with the movies and often to do so with hybrid results that can seem embarrassingly self-conscious and, on occasion, labored togrotesquery. The form of a great novel may indeed be like the form of a movie, but to write a novel in the conscious imitation of a movie may often only result in a kind of literary second fiddling, at attempt to do in one medium what can obviously be done better in another. — - As movie equipment becomes less expensive, it becomes easier for certain contemporary writers to do what their eccentric writing methods told us they should have been doing all along: telling stories with a camera. Joyce’s use of cinematic form virtually precedes his belated and ambiguous awareness of film, while Robbe-Grillet, as if in conscious recognition of the contemporary writer’s quandary, leaves off writing his meticulous imitations of camera set-ups in order to set up a real camera and make movies (e g., L'lmmortelle, L'Eden et apres). After all, if you want to describe physical surfaces with clarity and exactitude, the photographic image will not only do the job more effectively than words, but, as the ads say, will save you time and energy as well. Nowadays when nobody is anything if not a technocrat, it is obvious that some writers want to enjoy not only the aesthetic economies of film mechanics, but the wonders of it as well: arcane movie machinery like "dimmer banks” and “integral bipacks” doubtless have an hermetic and technological chic that the pen or the typewriter cannot hope to rival. Beyond this, it is almost too obvious to speak of the enormous sums of money associated with the movie business, or just as obvious, the size of the movie-going public itself which is, or certainly can be, commensurate with any writer’s most extravagant fantasies of power and exhibition. I suppose there is really no other way to explain why one of our most gifted writers, Norman Mailer, periodically abandons his good writing to make bad movies. No filmic intentions Most contemporary writers, however, who practice cinematographic forms have no intentions of making films. They practice these forms because it suits their expressive purposes to do so, and because the literature they have read and admired, the cinematic literature of the recent past, acts as both a formative context and stimulus for their own activities. The reason why this literature has come to be the way it is, has probably had more to do with changes in philosophic attitude and cognition than with the specific advent of the motion picture. One may even suggest, in fact, that both concretized literary forms and the modern passion for the film represent advanced expressions of the epistemology that we have been subtilizing and refining now for well over a century. We do not necessarily approve of our idea of reality, but can we live by any other? We now take it for granted that we cannot come to know or do a thing without first looking at it; that the meaning of what we see will be inseparable from the way in which we see it; and that no one acts in the world any more without awareness and forethought. Engagement without reflection, doing without knowing, has become in our time an unspeakably unnatural practice. Vet who of us would want to admit that this and only this is what we have come to? Many of us are still hopeful and buoyant enough to conceive of a culture of spontaneity, involvement, and rapport as something very like a lost paradise of the human spirit. We want to believe in an earlier, better, more “primitive” life as something more than an anthropologist’s dream, something more than some old wives’ tale that has survived the past to haunt the present because we know that we may disbelieve in this life only at the risk of total despair. The great tales and fables of Western culture have given us so many instances of cautionary advice about the perils of curiosity, self-consciousness, even ocular vision itself, that we cannot help but retain some notion of their opposites as equally viable attitudes. — Seen and lost When Psyche was visited every night under the cover of darkness by Eros, she took pleasure in her love as long as she could not see her lover. When she held a glowing lamp, the light of her sad enlightenment, above the sleeping body of Eros, she saw and knew the nature and object of her love, and in that very instant, lost it: the sleeping god awoke and vanished. The moment Psyche understood her experience, the experience itself became impossible, took a different and less satisfactory form never to be the same again. When the hunter Actaeon looked upon the body of the goddess Diana bathing in a .stream, the horns of his voyeur’s passion sprouted through the top of his head. Ravished by a rude eye, the goddess transformed the hunter into a stag to be devoured by his own hounds, analogues of his greedy, self-consumiog lust. Gods do not like to be looked at any more than they like to give them names (even Moses got mystification frorft'the Burning Bush), and the sacred will not tolerate too much human understanding of its forms and operations. When a mystery is seen and thus understood, it is no mystery; and the understanding of the sacred is its profanation. The fall of Adam and Eve, itself, is a fall from unknowing rapport and blind union with each other and their Maker and a fall into sad wisdom and open-eyed estrangement. Their story is a parable of human emergence into self-consciousness and a demonstration of two different kinds of knowledge. Before the Fall, there is only the subrational wisdom of affection where the exercise of the eye is diminished in the passion of one’s rapport with an object (i.e., spouse, garden, God). After the Fall, there are only strategems, tact, and forethought where the exercise of the eye becomes a function empirical and daily life a form of constant scrutiny For the voyeur In all the old stories, both Pagan and Christian, assertion of the conscious eye to comprehend the world results in the subject’s increased knowledge of and independence from its object, yet each effort also results in a corresponding decrease in wonder, harmony, and union. There is, of course, more in these tales than we have indicated, but I think the point is already clear: the way we live now represents the very forms and variants of the mental conduct for which the gods punished Actaeon, Psyche, and Adam and Eve. Our characteristic cultural activities and forms of entertainment films, T.V., a theatre of images, a concretized fiction emphasize the visual modality above all others because for well over a century now we have cultivated and enriched a spectator's idea of the world, a psychology of the voyeur, a philosophy and a feeling tone of the tourist and the isolatoe. We have held Psyche’s lamp high above the body of reality for so long a time now that it is hard to conceive of our daily lives in terms other than those of a kind of desperate, on-going scoptophilia. The loss of rapport with one’s world, the separation of the seer from the seen, has been one of the central assumptions of the fiction we have called modern for as long as any of us can probably remember. This assumption most often appears in the novel in either one of two forms: an — — interior form or a cinematographic form. In either of these forms we can discover the full panoply of characteristically modern themes and attitudes that result from a position of self-consciousness estrangement from the world: passivity, isolation, solipsism, memory obsession, relativism, disorder, terror, and nihilism. Modern hopelessness Not a pretty picture but then no modern reader comes to this literature, his literature, expecting pretty pictures. I once knew a woman who did not want to read modern literature not because she found it difficult, but because she found it hopeless. She could understand it well enough, but it did not make her want to live. I suppose we could say that this woman was reading fiction for all the wrong reasons, that one should not go to a book for “uplift” anyway, and that perhaps this woman wanted to find in modern fiction exactly what she could not find in modern life. But, on the other hand, we know exactly what she was talking about and that she was right: much of our best literature has been without hope. Still, many of us would no doubt find this woman’s complaining "old fashioned” not in her analysis of modern literature, but in the fact that she could still care enough to make a fuss about it. When we can tick off the themes and attitudes of our fiction as I have above like so many items on a shopping list, then perhaps the time has come for us to admit — — — — —continued on page 18— Fiction, film and the culture of estrangement — - Friday, 18 April 1975 Dimension Page seven . . , �. I'&i Gangsterfilms: the real family movies The gangster, is he is defined in the American film, is an urban being; the industrial offspring of the Westerner, who had been squeezed out of his environment the frontier by expanding civilization. In order to keep alive the mythical spirit of the a rugged and American male independent individual the gangster, even as the cowboy before him, had to adapt or perish. Much about the cultural implications of the gangster’s character is made clear when he is examined in relation to the female protagonists in the same films. Her relationship with the gangster, even when it is a romantical involvement, is usually representative of the cultural conflict of “Self vs. Others” which, expressed in many ways, is the basic theme of the arts in America. The Westerner developed in turn out of the early pioneer figure. Woman (that is, what she came to represent in the popular imagination) was nothing less than the very antithesis to the mythical male pioneer. Into the wilderness women brought with them manners, children, silverware in short, society and its responsibilities, civilization and its discontents, in opposition to the individualism and freedom which, in popular myth, characterizes the male frontier. In George Caleb Bingham’s ' painting, "Daniel Boon Escorting a Band of Pioneers,” a woman rides on a horse behind the hardy men who forge ahead into the wilderness on foot. Society follows on the very heels of the pioneer, eventually evolving into the familiar figure of Widow Douglas, who in Huckleberry Finn, symbolizes society’s oppressive restraint. (It is no mere coincidence that Twain’s book was written only five years before the American frontier was officially declared closed by the United States Census Bureau in 1890.) — — — — — Sexual conflict In much of American culture this tension between the individual and society is embodied in a sexual conflict Men came to , be against the law.

In Walsh’s symbolize unbounded freedom, by Barry K. Grant — — The Roaring Twenties (1939), Cagney would die on the steps of a church in just such an attempt. In this type of gangster film, the gangster seeks to establish a permanent relationship with a woman. But of course since his lifestyle embodies some values contradictory to hers, this relationship, usually depicted as marriage, was almost always doomed to failure. This sub-genre commonly concerns a story in which a man and a woman try to establish a life together even as they attempt to live outside the law. The classic examples of this type of film are Fritz Lang’s You Only Live Once (1937), which probably initiated the pattern, Nicholas Ray’s They Live By Night (1949), and Joseph fL Lewis’ Deadly is the Female (or,Gun Crazy, 1949). More recent examples and their popularity attests to the continued relveance of the genre’s themes include Arthur Penn's Bonnie and Clyde (1967), Robert Altman’s Thieves Like Us (1974), Terrence Malick’s Badlands (1974), and Stephen Speilberg's The Sugerland Express (1974). - — Both ways The men in these films and this is their tragedy if anything is seek to have it both ways even when the choices are unfortunately mutually exclusive: they want to be happily married and at the same time to live a life of crime; that is to say, to reap the benefits of the American way of life without accepting its responsibilities.

That is the basis of and the incentive for the American way of life. - — they must step over a broken threshold. When a gangster chooses to live with his wife, as Ray Danton does in the title role of Budd Boetticher’s The Rise and Fall of Legs Diamond (1960), he returns to discover that his criminal emprie has been completely snatched away from him. In Penn’s film Bonnie can visit her family only furtively, while the entire drama of Speil berg’s movie centers around the attempt of the two characters to retrieve their own baby. If a child could be brought up successfully and normally, he would symbolize the legitimization of the gangster’s life-style, the synthesis of the values embodied in the gangster and the woman. Godfathers and mothers The concept of “thefamily” is the major theve and image in Coppola’s The Godfather, Part II. The film clearly shows that the Corleone’s very conception of the family is itself a myth, and perhaps this is made most evident in the scenes with Hyman Roth. The Jewish gangster is totally involved in criminal dealings, and it is a brilliant touch by Coppola never to reveal the face of Roth’s woman on screen. Women in general in The Godfather, Part 11 are reduced to the role of child-bearers. But the attempt on Michael Corleone’s life is made in his bedroom, the gunfire acting as a wedge between Michael and Kate Corleone. Kate is finally forced to leave the household after she has confronted Michael with the inevitable choice. He wants the children, and keeps them, but the sense of family is illusory. Fredo, one of the Godfather’s sons, is a traitor to the Family: a gangster’s child can never be brought up as a kid in a television sitcom. The urgent desire to maintain family in The Godfather, Part II is an expression of the Godfather’s desire to become legitimate, in fact an anguished summing up of the attempt of many movie gangsters before him. But it is the gangster’s tragic fate that as long as he is a gangster, he is condemned to live and die alone, without kin. In You Only Live Once, Henry Fonda is an ex-con who cannot get work and it is this that forces him to return to a life of. crime. In Ray’s film, similarly, Bowie remarks to Keechie that he doesn’t understand why he cannot have a home without working.

Page eight . Dimension Friday, 18 April 1975 . Supplement to The Spectrum �Cannedfear: the horror movies by Bill Maraschiello they hope to generate. In identifying with the dramatic jeopardy, the hoped-for response is an emotional transfer a reaction to the observed danger as if our own lives/loves/identities were being threatened. It’s a gut reaction, a totally illogical one; its success depends on our being convinced that, in one way or another, the unreal events we see are happening, and that we are part of them. That’s the first stage. But the horror film must further disengage our credulity, since the happenings therein are not only strictly unreal, but centered on the impossible; they aren’t happening, and never could happen. At least, not by any criteria at our disposal. The creation of the Spectrum ArtsSTaff — No, horror and science fiction film has not garnered criticial attention approaching that given to practically every other cinematic genre. And, at first glance, it appears incontestably justified; a multitutde of the efforts in the field are quite dismal, and the clunkers do'Dfttimes clunk with an unusual vengeance. Every other classification of film is guilty of the same offense, yet this has very seldom been used to justify ignorance of the entire field. Who would damn The Maltese falcon because of Eddie Constantine’s Lemmy Caution epics, or Ford’s Stagecoach on the basis of the Bing Crosby/Ann Margaret remake? Can any number of failures, however diminish the numerous, achievements of the efforts which have done it right? The implicit quarrel is with what they have been successful at doing; not with aesthetics, as we may have believed, but with the end to which those aesthetics are the means. What is the purpose of the horror film? The object of the fantastic film is suspension of disbelief. The field, by its nature, must traffic in the “unbelievable” vampires, werewolves, living dead, the rest. Like any other type of dramatic work, it attempts to involve yoii in a separate milieu of setting, characters, and events. Usually, this involvement is manifest in a somewhat patronizing, non-crucial concern for the people in difficulty a primarily academic interest in how the situation presented will resolve itself. -* milieu must begin another step back; we must not only be persuaded that a suave mid die-European count has lived for centuries on human blood, but that we should admit such hogwash into our minds at all. On a primary level, this is achieved just as any other filmic objectives are; by skillful direction, photography, sets, and acting. But all of these tools draw (consciously or unconsciously) upon a source of great power: the emotion of fear. - Final jeopardy Both the horror film and the "thriller" share a-major occupation, with danger as a central factor in the kind of involvement Perhaps the most powerful of man’s basic impulses, it is also significantly the most dependent of them all upon irrationality; to fear, reason is anathema. It is primeval in its origins; in three million years, man has not outgrown his aversion to darkness, and need I mention the importance of darkness to the mood of the horror films? Man as mote The two things of which man is the most afraid are that which he knows can Cause him injury, and that which is beyond his comprehension. The mystical, the supernatural man must be subservient to these because they are beyond his and control. When understanding threatened by the unnatural, he must turn to these forces for whatever knowledge and defense he can gain. Indeed, the conversion of the staunch devotee of Logic In All Things to a more humbly open-minded position is a bread-and-butter turn of events in horror film. Factual analogy: in her review of neo-classis horror George Romero’s quickie, Night of the Living Dead, Pauline Kael confessed to an initial impulse to dismiss it as “undeniably the best movie ever made in Pittsburgh”; finally, however, she had to admit that it scared the culottes off her. “There’s no point in pretending that he [Romero] doesn’t have talent,” she concludes shakenly. As a critic, her reaction was disdain; as a human being, however, she found it impossible to fault the film’s effectiveness, and she is to be commended for relating to it on that level, to which a more elitist writer might not condescend. No one likes to be scared, at least not at that very moment. Yet we pursue experiences with that as their object. Some of us may seek to prove that we will not yield to those deplorable sensations, and probably feel a delicious, masochistic tinge of guilt when we do an additional spice. There is little conscious questing after a purgative of sorts, though that is a frequent result. — , — The lure of blood? That's a source of disgust, not of terror. Paul Morrisey’s Dracula is the bloodiest film I have ever seen, and one of the least frightening. Part of the answer is our presence in the most pragmatic age in the world’s history; if the phenomena that must still be classified as mysteries of the universe diminishes each day, those that still remain are to be cherished all the more. Even after Freud and Jung, we still revel in the wonder of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. The movie house is an environment (contrary to the television, which is a piece of furniture). Shrouded in darkness, cut off completely from the outside world, the events set before us take on a mythical stature. The horror film tradition draws upon emotions and drives rooted at the very core of the human archetype, creating a myth from truly mythical materials. As the wolves howl, the Count intones “Children of the night what music they make!” If all you hear are high-frequency vibrations, you have lost from the beginning. — Bill Maraschiello is the co-producer of The Moving Finger on WBFO-FM.

Sam Spade —Private Eye by David Baezelon As an apprentice literary critic, my impulse was always to write about life-size fellows rather than to nibble at the giants. The figure of the rough and tough private detective or the "private eye,” as we have come to call him is one of the with our circulating-library knowingness key creations of American popular culture. He haunts the 25-cent thrillers on the newsstands, he looks out at us grimly from the moving-picture screen, his masterful gutter-voice echoes from a million radios: it is hard to remember when he was not with us. But he is only his prophet some twenty years old. His discoverer is Dashiell Hammett. His first detective stories, built around the nameless figure of the “Continental Op,” were published in pulp magazines Black Mask, Sunset, and the like. Hammet was one of a group of detective story writers who had begun producing violent, realistic material in opposition to the refined puzzles of the old hands. — - — — — Sam Spade Hammett must have felt the lacks in the Op, for Sam Spade in The the detective figures that follow Maltese Falcon, Ned Beaumont in The Glass Key, and Nick Charles in The Thin Man all represent attempts to give his character a more genuine human motivation. And this attempt to intensify the meaning of his detective was,also, naturally, an effort on Hammett’s own part to express himself more deeply. "Spade had no original. He is a dream man in the sense that he is what most of the private detectives I worked with would like to have been and what quite a few of them in their cockier moments thought they or approached. For your private detective does not colleague my ten when he was years ago did not want to be an erudite solver of riddles in the Sherlock Holmes manner; he wants to be a hard and shifty fellow, able to take care of himself in any situation, — - — - Supplement to The Spectrum able to get the best of anybody he comes in contact with, whether criminal, innocent bystander or client.” This statement of Hammett’s in his 1934 introduction to The Maltese Falcon could have applied equally to the Op, except that Spade is more fully realized. Spade differs from the Op primarily in the fact that he has a more active sexual motive of his own. This sexual susceptibility serves to heighten, by contrast, his basic job-doing orientation. So when Spade, in conflict, chooses to do his job instead of indulging in romantic sex, he takes on more dramatic meaning than does the hero of the Op stories. That is, a new, definite motive has been admitted to the public world, and its relations to that world explored dramatically. But Spade always chooses to be faithful to his job because this means being faithful to his own individuality, his masculine self. The point of the character is clear; to be manly is to love and distrust a woman at the same time. To one woman, Spade says, "You’re so beautiful you make me sick!” from life, his focus. If his emotions released their hold on his job, he would find himself adrift, without pattern or purpose. On the other hand, the job is not a substitute for obviously a form of living. This dissociation of the form of one’s life from the content of actual life-gratifications is symbolized excellently by the fact that the Maltese Falcon around which so much life has been expended and turns out to be merely a lead bird of no disrupted intrinsic interest or value. — — — — David Bazelon, who currently teaches social analysis at this University, has taught literature at Bard College and law at .

It is this situation in The Maltese Falcon, coming as the climax of Spade’s relation to Brigid O’Shaughnessy, that is the supreme scene of all Hammett’s fiction. Its essence is stated very simply by Spade as he answers the woman’s eternal “If you loved me you Brigid’s would . .’’ ”1 don’t care who loves who," he says. “I’m not going to play the sap for you.” In his great struggle with Brigid, Spade must either deny or destroy himself. Because of the great distance between his self (summed up in a masculine code grounded in job) and others whom he loves and does things for (women or clients), Spade is seldom able to act “normally” in significant situations. His choice is unless usually between being masochistic or sadistic he simply withdraws his inner sentient self from the objective situation. It is his job that so alienates him Appealing — — . — Friday, 18 April 1975 Dimension . .

I must apologize at the outset for what must seem, to colleagues unacquainted with the unprecedented difficulties posed by the material, an excess of scholarly caution.

All three sites included large silver mirrors, figured to I ■ remarkable flatness, and scores of transparent bottles, lenticular in shape and of varying curvature. But the bulk of the contents of those granite vaults (immediately dubbed “archives” by the sensational press) consisted of some 75,000 identical copper solar emblems, in the form of reels, each of which was wound with about 300 meters of a transparent substance, uniformly 32 millimeters wide, that proved, upon microscopic examination, to be made of dried and flattened dog intestine. Little square images These strips are divided along their entire length into square cellular modules each 32 millimeters high. Each such square bears a hand-painted pictogram or glyph. The colors black (lampblack in a vehicle derived from the leaves of Aloe vera) and red (expressed from cochineal insects) predominate. There is seldom any obvious resemblance between consecutive pictograms. The draftsmanship is everywhere meticulous. The dry climate has kept everything in a state of exquisite preservation; it is expected that lamination in polyester, nowadays a standard curatorial procedure, will offset a slight tendency to brittleness in the picture rolls.

They seem to have spent most of their time and energy in making and using the pictogram rolls, which were optically projected upon the walls. Sunlight, led doors by an intricate system of mirrors, served as the illuminant. Images were brought to focus by lenses of water contained in glass bottles. At what rate the projected images succeeded one another is unknown. What function this activity may have had is matter for speculation. The pictograms offer internal evidence that the projections served both educational and religious ends.

The semantic unit, however, is not the single glyph, but a cluster of two or more pictures which denote the limits of a significance; where there are three or more, the images serve as points defining a “curve" of meaning.

I believe that we can turn away from the cinema which began with Lumiere (using cinema to create illusions of non-filmic movement), and which developed through Melies, Griffith, Eisenstein, and so on up to today's Bergman, Fellini, etc., and we can ask a new set of questions which greatly expand the possibilities of the system. There is no doubt that there is a great deal of value in the non-filmic tradition of cinema, in the accepted descriptions of cinema as illusionistic representation and as ‘documentary,’ but any further developments of these areas, without acute reappraisal of their metaphysical premises, will lead most probably to mere elaborations and effete indulgences in a time of massive cultural transvaluation. This is not to say that cinema should be, say, 'non-representational.' Film, 'motion picture’ and ‘still’ film, unlike painting and sculpture, can achieve an autonomous presence without negating iconic reference because the phenomenology of the system includes 'recording' as a physical fact. And the linear-temporal physicality of motion pictures allows for a kind of ‘representation’ suggested by Barthes in his essay “The Activity of Structuralism’: "The aim of all structuralist activity, in the fields of both thought and poetry is to reconstitute an ‘object,’ and, by this process, to make known the rules of functioning, of ‘functions,’of this object. The structure is therefore effectively a representation of the object but it is a representation that is both purposeful and relevant, since the object derived by imitation brings out something that remained invisible or, if you like, unintelligible in the natural object. The structuralist takes reality, decomposes it, and recomposes it again something new is brought into being, and this new element is nothing less than intelligibility: the representation is intellect added to the object. . . (the structuralist activity derives) from a mimesis, founded not on the analogy of substances (as in ‘realist’ art), but on the analogy of functions. . .’’ a time, is to allow several redundant and permuting parts to ‘rub against each other’ in time; emergents from such systematic interactions can be regarded as ‘natural 1 macroscopic representations of ‘microscopic’ cinematic elements. (Cinematics provides a means of creating powerfully direct perceptions, it is as fruitful an approach for the politically motivated film maker as it is for pure researchers. Godard has begun to understand this in new works such as One Plus One, where he seems to be cautiously moving away Andy Warhol had demonstrated in his early work that prolongations of subject (redundant, ‘non-motion’ pictures), because they deflect attention finally to the material process of recording-projecting (e.g. to the succession of film frames, and by way of consciousness of film grain, scratches and dirt particles, to the sense of the flow of the celluloid strip) it is perhaps as revealing of the ‘nature of cinema’ as is constant interruption of‘normative’ cinematic functions. At one point some artists felt that painting has evolved irretrievably away from ‘reference.’ Delaunay even believed that he was not only making ‘non-objective’ but also ‘shapeless’ (‘pure-colour’) paintings. Because his semantic culture set did not recognize, as we recognize today, that regularly bounded colour fields can be regarded as subsets of the concept‘shape,’he was unaware of the referential nature of his forms. Definitions of ‘reality’ change. It is hard today JiL V ... Cuttir\afpr impact wflairri Burroughs suggested that his ‘cut-up’ writing method could reveal the essence of a political speech more easily than a careful analysis of the unaltered speech; i.e., cut the thing apart and scan the random reassembly of words and phrases and the deeper logic of the statement becomes glaringly apparent. A method of empirically probing the cinema system, aside from looking at the system one part at from traditional narrative-dramatic moulds towards the sort of compellingly blunt recording style Warhol has invented. But these are not convincing examples for the truly radical political film maker because while Godard's films ‘contain’ political sentiments, they are not ultimately politically activating because they arc viewed not by the ‘masses,’who need to be activated, but by a gioup of persons who are no doubt already convinced of at least the possibility that a form of revolution is occurring. Truly effective political statements have not been made yet; however, the important experimental film makers working in Russia after the Revolution of 1917, by scrutinizing what they believed to be the syntax of film, came closest in making radicalizing to make distinctions between what is ‘non-objective’ and what is ‘symbolic’ and/or ‘referential.’ The arts It is interesting to consider some phenomenological differences between painting, music and film; in viewing painting our experience is changing while the painting’s existence is enduring; in music both our experience and the existence of the music are changing; however, in film we have a case where we can experience both changing and an we can look at the ‘same’ film as an endruring existence object, before or after projection (and it is not a ‘score’; it is ‘the film'), and as temporal process, while it is being — films.) —continued on page 12— Documentary and experimental film by Steve Osborn It is common and quite useful practice to perceive the history of i# ' / i/■ rA- Supplement to The Spectrum film in terms of schools or genres. Thus in documentary one speaks of the romantics, the Grierson school, “Free Cinema” and “Cinema Verite.” In experimental film one speaks of the trance film, the mythopoeic film and the structural film. While the educational utility of such a method, common to all art histories, is beyond question, it can be readily seen that the all-encompassing definition necessitated by such an approach can confuse as well as clarify. When one further considers that the laconic characterizations of films by critics using the same terminology greatly influences the public's desire to see, on open-mindedness when seeing, films, the necessity of correct analysis becomes crucial. The last decade has seen a fantastic growth of two apparently divergent styles of independent filmmaking; cinema vertie and experimental, each with a wide variety of substrata, permutation and labels. While the two would appear to have little in common, it is becoming increasingly clear to me that, while the stylistics are almost entirely dissimilar, the essential impulses of many of the filmmakers are very much alike. These ties are most clearly seen when comparing the films of Frederick Wiseman’ to the Pittsburgh Trilogy of Stan Brakhage. Probing the heat Both Law and Order, one of Wiseman’s earliest films, and Eyes, the middle film of the Pittsburgh Trilogy, deal with the institution of a big-city police force. The crucial phrase here is ‘‘deal with”; they attempt to probe the institution with a camera, giving their audience an insight available only through the medium of film. The pursuit of some kind of "truth,” be it subjective or objective, is at the heart of both films. Moreover, that truth stems from the actual sounds and, in the case of Brakhage, images alone. No voice of God is heard telling us how to see. It is only through the cogent formal manipulation of these raw materials truth can be made possible there is no shooting script and no actor to redo a scene. The filmmaker is in the same tense as his material and is continually confronted with real space and real time. The intent in both is one of de-construction, stripping away all but the essential, rather than one of re-construction. Wiseman and Brakhage, confronted with the task of filming these institutions, had a wide variety of formal strategies at their disposal to help them on — —continued on page 12— Friday, 18 April 1975 Dimension . .

This equivocality of object/projection is further complicated when we admit that there are occasions when we are looking at a screen and we don’t know whether we are or are not seeing ‘a film’; we cannot distinguish ‘the movie’ from ‘the projection.’ Let us say that the room is dark and the screen is white; we may believe that the projector may be casting images of a succession of clear-blank frames onto the screen, projecting not ‘light’ but a picture which represents motion (the motion of the strip of film being projected); so, unless we are in the projection booth and thus experience both the film as object and as projection, this ‘viewing’ would be incomprehensible. The unaware cinema Notice that in the normative cinema we neither see the motion of the film strip (unless the projector is ‘improperly framed’). The cameramen who shoot such ‘movies’ utterly and disdainfully ignore the frame structure of their medium; when the cameraman ‘frames’ a ‘shot’ he is thinking in image boundary abstractions rather than acknowledging the basic modularity of his image support. On the other hand, a film maker like Man Ray, in his Return to Reason, directs attention to the fact of film’s frame structure in his rayogram constructed passages where there is discontinuity from frame to frame. Brakhage, in Mothlight, allows the natural length of his in ‘subjects' to determine their duration on the screen the unforgettable passage where it seems as if a long thin leaf is passing us (rather than it seeming as if the camera is — —continued from page 11— Documentary and experimental film... their path to “truth.” The types of decisions that had to be made were voiced fifty years ago by Dzrga Vertov. "We set ourselves a broader task: editing, organizing, and joining together individual shots in such a way as to completely avoid falseness, to make every montage phrase and every creation in its entirety show us the truth.” Here, of course, is where Wiseman and Brakhage part there are as many company ways to attempt Vertov’s “truth” as there are filmmakers. In the case of Wiseman and Brakhage, one senses that the various formal devices are not gratuitous but rather the result of painstaking attempts to fully integrate the form and content. Though Brakhage, and Vertov for that matter, makes use of a much wider variety of cinematic devices than does Wiseman (slow motion, single framing, matting and lens distortion) the intent remains the same. — Seeing through another eye The crux of this question of style lies in the subject/object relationship in any given scene. If asked to describe what he is seeing through his viewfinder, Brakhage would probably begin with the phrase “I see a police car” while Wiseman might say “A police car them. He attempts, movie camera is in the street." The distinction is in hand, to become as integral to that one person’s object is the scene as possible. By opening another’s subject.

Birth of a Nation was based on Thomas Dixon’s novel, The Clansmen, and seethes with racism in its depiction of the rise of the Ku Klux Klan during the Reconstruction period. There will always be those, who, when looking at Birth of a Nation, in 1975, will condemn it for its blatant bigotry. Birth of a Nation is a landmark film because it was for this film that Griffith invented the iris, the mask, the vignette, the split screen, and triple split screen shots. The iris shot is used in the opening scene, with the aperture closed to a small hole. In the hole, woman and children are seen to be crying, as the hole slowly opens to the full screen. By vignettingj Griffith was able to subdue lighting around the edges and emphasize brightness in the center of the screen. Another technique he learned, and developed, was the use of “Rembrandt lighting.” Rather than illuminate the entire area so that everything could be seen, he created shadows in certain areas to set a solemn mood.

Perhaps each might profit by more closely examing the form inherent to the other's mode of perception. Putting something in Like Brakhage, Wiseman senses much more behind the camera than the viewfinder can show him. If a general sense of anger is in the air, he tries to evoke it by drawing attention to the facial expressions of those involved or quickly panning between the participants in the dispute. While this, in combinbation with the Sync sound, does reflect the physical manifestation of that anger, it does not really deal with its emotional aspects. Emotions run much deeper than facial expressions indicate. Perhaps by incorporating a disjunctive metaphorical image, or cutting the image out entirely, or cutting the sound out, Wiseman can reveal the —continued from • • page —continued from page 11— emotions of those involved and strengthen our impression of the scene while retaining its "truth.” Likewise, Brakhage would perhaps not violate his "truth,” if he were to make use of sync sound or draw more attention to the casuality of a given scene: too many synecdoches can often get in the way. Film is an almost infinitely expansive medium. There are always an infinite number of ways to do something. Wiseman, by limiting his shooting to an “objective” style, conveniently eliminates thousands of possible approaches. Brakhage does much the same by shooting only silent films. While one can certainly understand that neither one wishes to spread themselves thin, it would be an act of courage on their part to begin to deal with formal mechanisms outside of their present stylistics. If independent film wishes to more effectively deal with the world, and with its audience, it would do well to reexamine its schisms and expand the boundaries of its forms.

' — - - Supplement to The Spectrum �Amherst Campus media projects by Sparky Alzamora The creation and expansion of the Amherst Campus at the State University at Buffalo invites unique and exciting possibilities in all areas of learning. One such facet, relatively new in the processes of education, has been the establishment of a Center for Media Study which perpetuates the utilization of film and video tape for information and public entertainment. According to Gerald O’Grady, Director of the Center for Media Study at the Ellicott Complex, these media projects offer the as well as the University, community, surrounding flexible, “incredible, multi-purpose” programs that will enhance the arts, and facilitate educational opportunities absolutely are "We incredible resource,” said Mr. O’Grady,, who also serves as Director for the Instructional Communication Center (ICC) "and it offers citizens a chance to know the world of media. We offer the community more than any other department.” Unique department asserted, as evidenced by the remarkable number of movies that appear on campus. As a matter of fact, "we have the most impressive film screening program in the country,” he said. In particular, the University sponsors the Regional Film Project, supported the by National Endowment for the Humanities at the State University at Buffalo, which circulates a series_of ten films to the four regional areas of the SUNY system. Mr. O’Grady indicated that the Wide University Community on the Arts approves of this project which brings the schools in this region "the quality of film that they wouldn’t ordinarily receive.” The Regional Film Project includes film history (i.e., D.W. Griffith), documentaries, independent film showing in eight and sixteen millimeter, and foreign movies. Video land The Video film is another form of media with which the Center for Media Study is presently working. Besides teaching video techniques in the classroom, Mr. O'Grady described other ways that it can benefit the students at The Center tor Media Study has operated since last year and its Amherst.

In a text prophetic of so much in American life, Thoreau might as well have had television in mind when he wrote in Walden (1854): “The mass of men A stereotyped but lead lives of quiet desperation unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind.” Television, as it is now manufactured and prqmoted, is fundamentally a medium for the bored and confined, for those who elect emotional and intellectual limitation or who have had it thrust upon them: the ill, aging, and prolefed (see 1984). If this is not a popular attitude among McLunhanites and those who subscribe to “salvation by technology," it can be confirmed nonetheless by a random viewing of television. talk In watching three of television’s staples shows, situation comedies (sitcoms), and quiz shows it would be hard to disagree with The New York Times' Cyclops: 'Television is really an almost perfect recycling system, chewing up our personal lives, our private fantasies, and then feeding us on the waste product” and ‘They (quiz shows) are exercises in self-humiliation.” Given this situation, it is lamentable that there is such limited criticism of television. Except for Cyclops and John O’Connor in the Times, Peter Sourian in The Nation, Michael J. Arlen in The New Yorker, and an occasional commentator elsewhere, there is no ongoing critique of this most powerful medium of our culture. This excludes, of course, the promotional hype and commercial bound vacuities of T. V. Guide and the daily newspaper. .. - - School When brought into the university, television becomes an object of study for its function as an outlet of video-tape experimentation and not as a context of humanistic inquiry. Television becomes another sacred technology, like the computer, which receives support merely because it represents the ' 1J 1&g6%"urteen CimensiohVFYfclay, 18 April 1975 A T.V. critic would have little to offer, save contempt and sociology, under these conditions. 3. Because of production costs ($200,000 for each hour of T.V. "drama”), the medium is built for selling time. 4. The medium is intrinsically unaesthetic except in its use and creation of documentary form. When television tries to be “serious” or “arty,” it achieves flatness and pretnetiousness at once. In an effort to be dramatic to establish touchstones and television pushes hallmarks of human experience the personal and photographic intimacy (even beauty and depth) of the medium towards over-blown dramaturgy. When television violates its “mystique of plainness,” it goes wrong. The power of talk shows, however debased as conversation, reveals the effect of artless conversation upon the audience. Longing for community, we will listen, it seems, to any dialogue, and participate in any program resembling family or friendship. - — Screen In addition to talk shows and interview programs, television’s memorable achievements have been reportage: of sports, political events, lectures, and, of course Congressional Investigations. The McCarthy Hearings and Watergate will survive, I think, as permanent archives and authentic mythologies of national consciousness. Joseph Welch and Sam Ervin will ride the frequencies as long as their movie counterparts ride the range. The Congressional Hearing is to television what the .Gangster movie and Western are to American film: A native form of democratic art. The issue, then, is not so much to attack or support television for being popular, but to suggest that there are good and bod ways of being popular.

Hockey goes one step further. It must be seen to be believed. If you ever had doubts about the importance of television to professional sports in this country, consider this little dialogue between an associate of mine and one of my staff writers while they perused the morning paper. "There’s a story about O.). winning the superstars,” said the associate. "You had to tell me that,” said the writer, a little annoyed. “I wanted to watch it on television.” ‘You can still watch it,” said the associate, "But I wanted to be surprised,” replied the staffer. Now the associate, surprised that the writer had not heard the results on the radio, preceded to tell him all'about it. Steadfast, the writer would have none of it In time he was jumping up and down screaming "Don’t ruin it for me. 1 want to watch, I want to watch.” Now if you care to conclude that my staffer is a bit of a nut, you’d probably be right, but this incident proves that television has cast a nearly hypnotic spell over the American sports fan. Going on One could go on and on with a stream of statistical material, proving the importance of television, economically and otherwise, to the wide world of sports. But that wouldn’t be as emphatic a proof as a fan’s desire to watch something that has already happened, the results of which are common knowledge. The odd thing is that sports events are usually the only programs on television that are broadcast live. Games are merely a creation of men’s minds but their reenactment is just a little different each time. This element of surprise must be considered a major reason for the success of professional sports as a form of entertainment The marriage of certain sports, particularly football, and television, was surely made in heaven.

Simon — — * — — — This scene, which reassures us about romantic love, is a preparation for the subsequent exchange in the restaurant where all the emotional violence is verbalized, surrounded by exhileratingly confused noise and movement, and exhibited in public within the film, as it is on the screen for us. To make absolutely sure we react properly, the embrace of the lovers is accompanied by “canned” applause just as in a T.V. serial. No fancy camera work such as the tracking which records the two women’s flight into the john or the reverse zooms which shows us the tacky environment where the two women were sunning themselves earlier or where we will leave Alice and Tommy takes us back even to the challenge with which the film began. We are within a thoroughly tabloid situation, and we have been brought there by a willing exploitation of sentiments, related to the techniques, which only pretend to raise our consciousness (cinematographic, or any other). — — The title Finally, titles are important indices and conveyors of meaning, not in some external capacity, but because, in this popular art form, titles have an advertising function: they signal to an audience at the outset. Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore promises something it does not deliver. It suggests a change; but the following conversation late in the film tells us that we have been had: Kris Kristofferson: “Want to go home? Or stay?” Alice: K.K. “Are they the sarne?” Alice faced with her straight man, indicates that melting as usual they are the same. The title implies, too, that Alice is being viewed from where she was, that is, from a distance (by the neighbor, for example, who early in the, film, is left far behind through tfie back window of Alice’s car). Of course, this is not the case: She is “Alice,” familiar, endearing, and where Alice now “lives,” thought suggestive of a hip lingo (where she really is "at," — — what she now is "into”), is where she always did. Rather than a (tenacious) statement, Cassavetes proposes a painterly title (and he almost except for Minnie always does and Moscowitz, the title of which in fact accurately 'reflects the weakness of the fiIm.the\facile, ingratiating eccecentncity of the mating of two incongruents, like an American Morgan ... which works): a description of a state, a situation produced and perceived in certain conditions. The central figure has the anonymity of a singular but generic universal, and, to prove to what extent this characteristic is not merely an incidental effect in the title, one need only pay attention to the way people introduce or are asked to name themselves in the film, the combination of humanity and the simulataneous recognition of human triviality, interchangeability, undefinability, displacement, fluidity. The condition is deliberately abstract and susceptible to multiple interpretations; “influence” of alcohol, lunar madness, a male world of force and performance, a female world of flux and caprice. Under, because it is something which is seen from beyond any specific point of view. In fact, below would be more like it, given the way in which all our pointed expectations are blunted and we are forced to follow the meandering psychological itineraries of now Mabel, now Nick (and in the crowd or group scenes, of one after another secondary figure), experiencing the repetitions, empty spaces, sudden encounters, reversals, disappearances, synchronically as they come to occur. The film is admittedly disagreeable at times laboring, cloying, vacuous, strident, obsessive like any excessively pervasive atmosphere corresponding to an emotional condition, produced by a psychological or physiological arrangement or derangement of the senses. On the other hand, like Mabel herself, although not always in phase with her, we cannot but be “under the influence.” - John K. Simon teaches film at UB.

Friday, 18 April 1975 Supplement to The Spectrum �Tommy' by Randi Schnur mortals grounded on the beach below all those under 30, anyway dance for joy), is the perfect grist for Russell’s mill of the imagination. In The Who’s original opera, one of the milestones of late-sixties rock, this sequence of events is touched off by little Tommy’s unwitting entrance into the scene of a murder his parents have just committed. Their shrieking insistence that “You didn’t hear it, you didn’t see it, you won’t say nothing to no one ever in your life!” so traumatizes him that he instantly obeys, albeit a bit more literally then either of them had expected. Subsequent visits to an amusement park hawker whose women has “got the power to heal you, never fear," a gypsy who cails herself the Acid Queen and promises that “if your child ain’t all he should be now, this girl will put him right,” and a doctor who, swears the father, “couldn’t remove his sorrow,” all prove fruitless. Only mirrors inexplicably affect him mirrors and, of course, pinball machines, which he operates with such incredible expertise that the local champion he deposes accuses him of playing "by sense of smell.” — - Ken Russell’s peculiar directorial genius shines most dazzlingly or perhaps blazes, for Russell at his best approaches the demonic when his subject matter is most grotesque. Working from material often so outlandish as to frighten away other filmmakers (not to mention audiences), he constructs scenes whose visual brilliance somehow transcends their moral and/or emotional ugliness. From the young lover whom we discover locked in gruesome embrace at the bottom of a drained pond in Women in Love, to Vanessa Redgrave’s hunch-backed nun seen in the throes of religious ecstasy as priest Oliver Reed is castrated onscreen in The Devils, and on through Glenda Jackson’s similar delirium near the end of The Music Lovers as she sinks slowly over a grating in the insane asylum’s courtyard while the hands of dozens of men underneath grab at her impatiently, Russell’s major works have always seemed to be almost obsessively concerned with freaks and freakiness, obscenity in every sense of the word and the obscene. These images are made to seem even more lurid by their setting; there is nothing Rape of the rock From this point on, the details of the about Father Grandet’s stately pre-hysteria Loudun or Tchaikovsky’s wintry Russia plot become increasingly ambiguous. with its fairy-tale clamor of sleigh-bells Tommy is suddenly cured in some which even hints at the horrors tucked mysterious way, somehow rises to the status of Messiah, opens up a Holiday away perilously close to their surfaces nothing, that is, if you are unfamiliar with Camp in which the recreational facilities the work ofKen Russell. are oppressively limited “Here comes Uncle Ernie to guide you to your very own machine," the Wizard sings to his Through the mill Tommy Walker, the pathetic ear-plugged, blindfolded and gaged "deaf-dumb-and-blind-kid” who followers and is overthrown even faster metamorphoses into Pinball Wizard and, than he gained power by an angry mob after a sudden Miracle Cure, Messiah .screaming, "We’re not gonna take you!

Over the bones of this tenuous plot were draped a double album of some of outrageous The Who’s finest music indeed, but neither long enough nor sufficiently clear for a feature-length film. So Ken RusseTl updated it 30 years, did a little rearranging, hand-picked an extraordinary cast, added some new material but never fear, purists, Messrs. Townshend, Daltrey, Entwistle and Moon were on hand at all times, and Townshend is even listed in the credits as Musical and, with the help of Paul Director Dufficey’s elaborate settings, fleshed out the skeleton into a visual masterpiece. All the old songs are there, as well as a couple of new ones by The Who (nowhere near the caliber of the originals, but they do help to clarify things a bit), but the addition of Russell’s work has transformed Tommy into a staggering multi-media story — — — — extravaganza. A modern Every star The several levels of allegorical significance and the symbolism Russell loads on top of them are annoyingly obvious, if not downright puerile. Tommy is religious satire of the most simplistic sort, emphasizing the gullibility and fickleness of his mob of followers, the opportunistic commerciality of their ministers, and the innocence and naivete of the figure at the center of all the hysteria. The analogous situation of the rock superstar the second level of meaning comes to mind immediately; the intended “rape" that Tommy’s listeners scream of can be understood as the typical singer’s exploitation by managers, promoters, record companies, fans, and so on ad infijiitum but, devastating as all that may be, “forgetting” is certainly the worst thing any audience can do. Russell’s brilliant casting becomes extremely significant at this point, and — — — Supplement to The Spectrum leads us down onto a more deeply psychological level. Tina Turner’s Acid Queen, Elton John’s Pinball Champ (until Tommy comes along, that is), and Eric Clapton’s Preacher (the film’s equivalent of the Hawker), to name only a few of the most obvious examples, are terrific not just because of their performances, but also because of the trenchant self-parodies the director has gotten from them.' Turner is the Queen no one else could possibly caricature her as grotersquely and perfectly as she does herself and John’s eighteen-inch heels, rhinestone-studded glasses, and customized pinball machine with its built-in piano say more about the star himself than about the bit part he plays. And remember the band and album Blind Faith, so named because Clapton et. at. expected us to buy on exactly that? Although he stays relatively aloof, walking sedately down the aisles of his church and refusing even to let us watch him play the guitar which dangles in front of him (appraently more a part of the ritual than a functional musical instrument), he needs no help in establishing his credentials for the role of faith healer. Smile for the camera These singers are, of course, all playing themselves; we know it, they know it, and Russell milks his gimmick for all it’s worth. Turner half-leads, half-drags Tommy up the long staircase to her room without , ever seeming to notice he’s there; after dumping him on her bed, she races up to the camera and, with her nose about an inch from its lens, wriggles and mugs her way through her big number. Even the crowd of extras cheering and hissing as Tommy and the Champ battle it out in the “Pinball Wizard” sequence seem to be as excited as they are simply because the attractions onstage are Elton John and The Who, with their guitar-smashing and drum-crunching provoking the usual hysterical reactions, their involvement in the story which they’re supposed to be acting out is no greater or less than that of the "actors” themselves. They are almost reminiscent of all those “studio audiences” at television game shows who wave wildly at the camera as soon as they realize that it’s zeroing in on them. Just being there, and letting everybody know it, are three-quarters of the fun. Can they top this? Another production could easily have been smothered to death under the weight of such a collection of colossal egos, but the grander scope of Russell’s own vision apparently made him encourage each star to try topping all the ones whose scenes had been shot before. The result is a dazzling series of vignettes, held together by the performances of three tremendous leading players Ann-Margaret (the Mother), Oliver Reed (her lover Frank), and Roger Oaltrey, the perfect Tommy. Russell’s screenplay demands that Reed act everything from vaudeville-style slapstick comedian to genuinely worried father to romantic hero, and his seemingly boundless sheer energy (as well as a very good measure of talent) make his tour de force of a performance into the histrionic — —continued on page 18— Friday, 18 April 1975 Dimension Page seventeen Vi InqA 8i ,-fsbhH nx>iaa$miQ nss}xiz sp, . . . . �Fiction, film —continued from peg* 7— that these words no longer move us to vigorous response and that now we would like to know what else is new in the world. We have heard these words (or words like them) reiterated so often for so long that now the very perhaps all our lives sound of them only provokes a familiar numbness: who wants to hear this schoolboy’s codification of contemporary anguish all over again? Who even wants to hear again our recognition of the acknowledged origins of this anguish? Industrialization urbanization, a debilitating nuclear technology, the loss of a unifying structure of value and belief, and so on, and so on. Is this litany any help at all? Where we are now seems so far from where we have been that I am not at all certain that it helps os any longer to know how, we got there. How does one go back? To what does one go back? We have lived so long with a literature of estrangement indeed, within the conditions of an that it is virtually estranged life impossible for many of us to know what it must have been like to live with some other kind of literature, some other kind of life. What is new, then, about bur present situation is that we no longer worry about the fact that we used to think it was awful. If we thought our condition to be worse than it is, it would no doubt begin to get better. The fact that it does not begin to get better tells us that things could get a lot worse and that the way we live now has become easy to endure. If we have any new problem at all, then, it is that we have learned to accept our old problem: our suffering has become a bore even to ourselves. - — — - • Old fashioned hope Too cynical? Perhpas. After all, one should realize that any body of thought that has been absorbed as thoroughly as the content of modernism is bound to lose some of its force. Besides, that lamenting woman was responding to modernism as such, and in this, too, she has again proved herself to be “old fashioned." In the past thirty years or so, we have seen the rise of a new body of literature with a new theme and a new attitude. We call this new literature "post-modern” and its new Tommy'... equivalent of the director’s visual pyrotechnics. He sings, dances and makes faces at the camera alongside of the best of them, while his '‘straight’’ scenes, like the amusement park sequence in which little Tommy first discovers the strange power of the mirrors, confirm his status as one of the screen’s best and most versatile actors. His dizzying virtuosity is balanced by Ann-Margaret’s calmer and more tender, but equally fine, portrayal of Tommy’s adoring mother, struggling with the constant pain of his father’s murder and "always accused by his empty eyes.” Her love has an edge of desperation to it her drunken hallucinations as she watches the triumphant Pinball Wizard stare sightlessly from the television sceen in her bedroom are at the center of one of the film’s strangest and most unforgettable scenes but her acting shows total control over an extremely difficult role. — — Wizardly work It is Daltrey’s Tommy, though, who consistently steals the show (at least from everyone but Ken Russell).

On the other hand, the symphonies of Stravinsky are clearly of less interest to the musical public than are his mixed-media offerings (like L’Historie du Soldat and Oedipus Rex ) and Schoenberg’s lone opera Moses and Aaron gets far less critical attention (and fewer performances) than his hybrid compositions for voice and chamber groups. A Warhol or Lichtenstein is often described as “camp” or "in a minor mode” while abstract expressionists are still "serious” and “very much in the mainstream.” Bellow gets labelled "old guard” while the latest work of Thomas Pynchon, according to the current press, advances the novel "beyond Ulysses. art - - - -* ” There to use Perhaps an'y artistic form once established is always there for the artist who cares to use it who can believe deeply enough in the ideas embodies in its form but perhaps this form is not always there for the collective consciousness of a developing, changing culture. Forms, then, do not “die." “Death” is just our way of speaking, the metaphor we use when a form shifts position from the center of the cultural consciousness from the center of critical concern, of media attentiveness to some less eminent position tangential to the center. At this moment, the novel seems to be in the process of changing its position in the cultural regard. The new novel is both one cause and symptom of this process; in this sense, it is a novel of transition. It is also probably one indication that from now on all new novels except perhaps for the very greatest will matter a great deal less to us than they did in the past.

Daltrey obviously loves his rock dream of messanic martyrdom watch the expression on that angelic face as he sings “I’m a sensation!!” and his enthusiasm is highly contagious. All of the usual nonsense we have come to expect from the Master of Excess is in strong evidence here the twin motifs of polished steel balls and polished mirrored surfaces are repeated so often in so many different ways that we almost expect the screen to curve inward and roll away in a blaze of reflected light at any moment and the Christian symbolism which is so obvious from the beginning continues past mere redundancy into silliness. (Yes, they are capital "T ’’s, but do the wooden icons which Tommy’s followers eventually use to destroy their machines have to look so much like crucifixes? That image should have gone out with The Graduate.) But Russell’s Tommy is an instant rock classic, if not a cinematic one; and, as awesome an experience as this should be for the uninitiated, it will make it as impossible for Who freaks to envision any other Tommy, Cousin Kevin, Uncle trnie, or whoever, as it is to imagine a replacement for Gable’s Rhett Butler or Bogart’s Sam Spade. — — — — Rand!

The Great Waldo Pepper, while only a few weeks old (still an infant by anyone’s calendar), Tooks to be a product in the McDonald’s tradition of big aify buns, lots of snazzy wrapping paper, quick service (almost too quick), and minimal, fatty meat. Pepper has the same kind of quick-and-easy mass-cult appeal as a McDonald’s Burger. And had Robert Redford, Pepper's star, never made it in the movies, he would not have been half bad as Ronald McDonald. They both have such winning, insincere smiles. Only Redford’s isn’t painted on or is it? What’s true in the mass food industry only holds to a point in masscult movies. Even though ‘‘silver dollar" may soon be a phrase describing the burger’s size and price, it’s pretty clear that one big reason for McDonald’s popularity is its relatively low cost. Like the burger, Pepper is trashy but it’s expensive trash. Pepper costs about the same as or in some cases, more a good movie, and yet people keep than spending their bucks on Pepper. That’s a bit like paying a flat food charge, being given the choice between dining at McDonald’s or the Ritz, and choosing those golden arches. — — - Silence Another in a string of director George Roy Hill's movies, Pepper is a Redford vehicle calculated to bring in the suckers (and their dollars). If it fails at this, it won’t be because Hill wasn’t trying. What’s wrong with Pepper is, really, what’s wrong with so many American films these days. A scene near the start of Pepper inadvertently outlines the problem. In it, Redford as Air Ace Waldo is seated in a movie theater watching an old, silent adventure movie. To impress a pretty young woman, he begins predicting what will happen to the hero of the silent film. Waldo: That was a mistake shouldn’t have taken offhis gun. Woman: Why? ... He own there isn’t even any pleasure in experiencing the movie’s visual magic. The big plane You’d imagine, wouldn’t you, that a film about a WWI flying ace including much footage of bi and triplane aerial tricks would have to be exciting? That's the reason I went to see it, anyway. Consider those old planes and their shaggy dignity as they trace tense outlines against a" muddy sky; two animal adversaries stalking each other in a private dogfight. Probably, the uncut, original footage of planes in the air taken in preparation for Pepper would have been somewhat interesting. But in the film itself, that footage is chopped up and cluttered with shots of minor characters watching the airplanes and gasping sentences that fall under the generic heading of "What will happeri~next?” Instead of a sense of power and danger, we get gratuitiously-placed exclamation points, like the ones you see at the end of comic book sentences. The big apple Outside New York’s Ua Rivbli theater, the crowds I saw pressing the police lines in order to get a glimpse of Bedford and Paul Newman, (his son has a small role in ... Woman: Why? Waldo: Arabs behind those rocks. Well, as it turns out, Waldo’s right about the gun he’d probably seen the silent movie before. Now with Pepper the problem is that as you sit there seeing it for the first time, you fed that you’ve seen it already. You can figure everything out: how each scene will play, what it will look like, how the dialogue will sound. And even if you’re momentarily surprised, it’s a type of surprise that doesn’t mean anything. If the story situation leads you to ask, "Will the hero fly and land his airplane safely?” it doesn’t matter much whether the flight is a safe one or not. Both eventualities satisfy the same plotty expectations in an audience. And, since the scene is bound to be shot in the hyper-clear Hollywood style with all the action going on at dead center of the screen so as to leave nothing for the eye to discover on its own there isn’t even any pleasure in experiencing the movie’s visual magic. - them. How can advertising bring films so far from being artful and entertaining? All of us Sincerity some would say obsession is found, these days, in its purest, most visible form in small, dogged, political groups. The single-minded fury of the White House clique that led to the Watergate situation is not all that different in degree and kind I won’t say purpose from the passion of the prisoners at Attica, N.Y. and their spiritual, unimprisoned “kin.” On this campus, the organizers of the Attica “events” really wanted everyone to see Cinda Firestone’s movie Attica (Attica Productions, Inc.) when it played here this semester. They wanted the film to play uninterrupted, to impress us with its critical message of prison reform. They also wanted viewers to make a contribution in a money-can at the front of the viewing — — — — room. While I would in no way want to suggest that the campus-event organizers were insincere or money-grubbing in their sentiments, I would say that in being caught up in the mixed motives of a) putting the film on the screen, and b) collecting money in the can, they lost sight to let us see of the program’s objective — Pepper is “a more important, a more personal (!) film than either of Director George Roy Hill’s two earlier smash hits, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and The Sting. I’d say it’s just the reverse. Sundance was, at least, entertaining and The Sting, while a cheat and a bore, had a nice poker-playing scene with Paul Newman. In Pepper, Hill deserts all intentions of being an artist He and screenwriter William Goldman coldheartedly simplify and, thereby, debase human thought and emotions. And as the generations reared on such pap begin reacting to life situations by echoing these simple thoughts and emotions, we had better duck. All of us. Trucking Seeing Ralph Nader in the Fillmore Room a couple weeks back reminded me how unreceptive to public safety and health the auto industry remains. It must be a constant source of frustration to Nader that even in such a clear and where air pollution and provable case traffic accidents pose such large and it is next to unquestionable dangers impossible to get anything done.

The ad agents have used the same type of screeching hype and rigamarole to get us into the theaters,but they never give us anything once we’re there. Sharp, loud publicity is perhaps useful when its object is beautiful; and even when its object is a bad movie you’d like to think that the ads don’t effect the film. But sometimes, the publicity tricks can and do effect the quality of a movie. It seems no accident,that Hollywood has such masterful publicity campaigns in so many cases, and such awful films to show for - - the film so as to acquaint us with their struggle. Because of this confusion, this carelessness, the can was placed in the way of the screen so that it blocked a portion of the film’s image. It was distracting and self-defeating. I’m entirely aware of how picky this sounds; still, the very fact that the organizers of the campus event completely overlooked the money-can (and would probably still say that this point is idiotic) shows how far they were from understanding the importance of and being concerned with the very film documentary they selected to present. In Hollywood what apparendy happens is that that metaphorical money-can becomes bigger and bigger until it’s all the and it’s all they want producers can see us to see, too. They fill their art with junk so that people will come to see it. Movies seem to be like responses to projected publicity campaigns, instead of having it the other way around. The artist’s intentions as sincere as those of the Attica kin become obfuscated by commercial considerations until they reach the final abyss television where the shows are planned to ‘be crammed in between the commercials. Making a movie that sounds good to prospective patrons replaces making a movie, that is good. It’s easier to do and less of a personal failure when you don’t succeed. In the ads for Pepper Times critic Vincent Canby is wrong when he says that — — — — — Supplement to The Spectrum tries to be positive, yet even he had to ask his audience, “How much time do people spend trying to do something about General Motors?” The answer is painfully obvious. If this is true in a case as clear as this, consider how much harder it is to get anything accomplished by writing on film. The dangers to the public in bad films are more subtle, harder to detect, and I think more devestating, ultimately. It becomes increasingly hard when the public is more willing to listen to the ads than to the critics and their own better natures. And this is even more complicated when you’ve got bad critics confusing matters. When film critics and that’s what we are, we Film Dimension contributors come to write on movies, it should be with a genuine understanding of and affection for the form’s possibilities. I think that most critics and even most moviemakers must have had this love, this passion, initially or else .they wouldn’t have been drawn to considering the form. The trick is to maintain this high level of passion for the theoretical options of cinema in the face of the garbage one finds in so many actual Hollywood messes. Otherwise, a mediocre writer or director as Hill was a few years ago just gets worse. “A movie, like any other work of art, must be made,” said critic James Agee, “for love.” — — - — — — — — jay Boyar Is an Editor of Film Dimension and an Arts Editor for The Spectrum.

I find it very discouraging that the Chairman of the Faculty-Senate has so little respect for the students of this University and for the efforts of one of the few groups which is actively attempting to involve this University in the pressing political problems that surround us. Mr. Hochfield accuses the members of College F of diminishing the dignity of the struggle of the Attica brothers by comparing their oppression to the situation of students at this University. I wonder whether Mr. Hochfield is as aware of the extent and nature of the oppression experienced by the Attica brothers and as actively involved in trying to combat it as the members of College F who he accuses of being so insensitive. These people have discussed the issue extensively in classes and at open meetings held at the College, participated in a program which involves regular visits with present Attica inmates, and supported Dacajeweiah and Charles Pernacalice by demonstrating at the courthouse. By pointing out similarities between the conditions of U.B. students and Attica inmates, the authors of the College F statement were certainly not claiming, as Mr. Hochfield seems to think, that the psychological and physical constraints upon U.B. students are as extreme and severe as those upon Attica inmates. They were asserting rather that there are certain basic mechanisms of authority and control which effectively limit the freedom of both students and prisoners to develop their full potential as creative, thinking, and feeling human beings.

When I say that students’ freedom is limited, 1 am not talking abstractly. I am talking about the many serious students that I know who are seeking to develop their potential in these areas and find at the University a regime of courses, grades, exams, degree requirements, irrelevance, and subtle coercion which is all too pervasive and which functions primarily to train people to receive and give degrees. There are many such students and they are very frustrated and dissatisfied with the general fare of education and the saucity of viable alternatives, here or at almost any other university. It is discouraging to find that in Mr. Hochfield’s opinion, such feelings are “petty resentments.” It is also indicative of the legitimacy of students feelings of powerlessness and anomic that this opinion is that of the Chairman of the Faculty-Senate and that Mr. Hochfield has consistently acted in accordance with this viewpoint during his tenure in that body. Witness his staunch opposition to those Colleges who are attempting to escape from a rigid academic formalism and his recent veto of a meeting between Student Association and Faculty-Senate members to discuss the possibility of greater student involvement in tenure decisions. These actions and the opinions expressed by Mr. Hochfield in his letter exemplify the difficulties facing those people who are trying to change the educative process at this University to one which is more responsive to the needs and interests of the people who make it up and to the demands of the urgent political problems of our The State University of New York at Buffalo, April 15, 1975 “Are you going to graduation?” I said. “I don’t believe in that traditional, boola-boola, pomp and circumstance bullshit.

We, the Buffalo Musicians’ Collective, would like to take this opportunity to thank The Spectrum for its sense of responsibility, sincerity, and community interest. On March 20, we had submitted a short letter to the general community through The Spectrum announcing pur formation, describing our formation and goals, and inviting the community to our organizational meeting. We had been told that the letter would be printed. It was not. On March 30, we submitted directly to the Editor, a short article restating our philosophy and inviting all those interested to our second meeting on April 3. We were told that the article would be in Wednesday’s (April 2) The Spectrum. It was not. We find The Spectrum to be esteemed company with these actions: the Buffalo Evening News Courier Express, and Ethos have also chosen to suppress promised announcements of our meetings and statements of our existence. Without media support, there can be no connection between our organization and those that would be part of it, if they knew of our , existence. We do not wish to fall prey to paranoia but it seems that we are being ignored. It also seems that the “liberal” news media are merely organs of the entrenched power structure and thus, tend to serve those that will not disturb the status quo. The best way to suppress a foundling alternative organization is to ignore it. The Buffalo Musicians’ Collective will be working to wrest economic and artistic control of our lives from the hands of this fossillized University and from the reactionary commercial scene with its tightly controlled clubs and agencies and corrupt union. The oppression and exploitation of the musicians and general community will soon end. We are in the process of creating an energy center where the musicians and community can connect and interact for mutual benefit. We hope to attract musicians and other interested persons from all parts of the city. The Collective plans to provide a clearinghouse for all available resources. There will be a center where musicians can meet and play and where workshops, seminars, classes, rehearsals, and performances will be held. Also in the works is a printed newsletter that will include a directory: available services including instruction, repair, and legal help; and news relevant to the musical community. We will be presenting a series of concerts of all types of music and community dances. Donations will be requested at our events so that the musicians and the Collective can survive, function and grow. Our first concert will be held on Friday, April 11, 1975 at 10 p.m. at the CEPA Gallery at 1377 Main St. and will feature two works. One is a group interaction piece by Charles Kaufman based on the awareness of the sounds of our immediate environment. The other work, “Sprouts,” by Elliott Sharp is an exploration of orchestrated improvisation within a composed structure and will feature violin, various wind instruments and 8 "8 O) 8 o s percussion.

Early in the working of the new Constitution, 1 brought my committees basic ideas to the Assembly. I wanted ideas, comments and criticisms from the Assembly concerning the basic concepts that had been worked out. A few people tried to talk about the issues, but were constantly interrupted by people criticizing the fact that I had brought the Constitution up before the details had been finalized. I also held four workshops during the conceptual stage of the writing of the Constitution. I had a total attendance of two. I later held four workshops so that I could fully explain the new Constitution, which also had a total attendance of two. There was certainly no lack of effort to try and involve the Assembly, and to gain input at all stages. It would appear that what is being criticized is the lack of an Assembly veto over the new Constitution rather than a lack of opportunity for the Assembly to bring out. Bruce Lange of the S.A.

I criticized a proposed course on “New Towns” these are those “gentle places” where My friend, George Hochfield, a frequent cirtic everything is taken care of for you, the resident-with of the Colleges, complained in Monday’s The their gardens and parks, their quotas, their security great boondoggles for Spectrum that we in Tolstoy College (F), in our guards and supermarkets buck.

It was, George, an easy letter to write, because Banks and Insurance Companies operate to finance it is well established in the public mind how great and create such places? How they carefully the differences are: the “free” versus the “unfree;” manipulate the lives of the people who live there, to the “guilty” versus the “innocent;” the “good” suit their purposes? And aprticularly, will the proposed instructor in the course, The Planner of a versus the “bad.” George, I consider it a part of our common nearby New Town, be able, herself, to make such humanist tradition, a responsibility I accept, to criticism given the obvious conflict of interest? It constantly stress the similarities, not the differences was a polite question, one seeking information and among men and women, in spite of the input, since I respect our sister Colleges —'that is the overwhelming State power which is organized to way we have operated in the Colleges in the past. At this point, George, you jumped up and divide us all from each other: “gentile”’from “jew;” “believer” from “pagan;” “foreigner” from “native;” vehemently objected to my question, demanding that the Chairman rule it out of order. Why is such a “intellectual” from “worker,” and so on. This means that we build solidarity among question “out of order,” George? Are we not ourselves, with those behind prison walls, by interested in these gigantic public swindles? Are.we showing how, in many ways, we are in a similar not all suspicious, these days (recall: the Nursing position.

The question was raised as to how much input the to provide input. 1 see no reason why the Assembly should possess a veto over an issue that is going to referendum. Input definitely, but surely not dictatorial powers to veto. Concerning the issue that Student Government will have less student representatives under the new system, this might indeed be true, 'but instead of having people that are merely interested in making decisions, the people involved in the decision making process will already be actively involved within the University community. As I see it, the old system had the cart before the horse. To Jon Burgess, I apologize. The contradiction, concerning the ability of the student body to amehd the Constitution, was a mistake. The intent of the Constitution was to give the student body the right to amend.

Science fiction as literature will be discussed as an “intelligent dialogue” by critics in this field, according to science fiction author Samuel Delaney. An instructor in the University’s English Department, Coordinator Judy Kerman said the symposium will be more of an academic conference than a convention. The event is being sponsored by the office for credit-free programs in cooperation with the English Department. Mr. Delany, a visiting professor here, will host the event. He has won Nebula Awards for Science Fiction for Babble 17 and Einstein Intersection, and two other works. The guest speakers, chosen by Mr. Delaney, include Leslie Fiedler, chairman of the English Department. Dr. Fiedler has edited antholigies on Science Fiction. Others The other speakers are Jean-Marc Gawron, a young author who wrote Algarhythem, An Appology for Rain and a soon-to-be-released novel; and Joseph Haldeman, another new author who teaches at- the Iowa School of Writing and writes mostly short stories for Sci-Fi magazines. A veteran of Vietnam, Mr. Haldeman often relates his war experiences to his articles. Also appearing will be Judith Merrill, a long-time anthologist, who has edited the Science Fiction Anthology, a yearly publication Another speaker, Frederick Pohl wrote Space Merchants with Cyril Kornbluth and is currently the Science Fiction Editor for Bantam Books. Author Joanna Russ, founder of Womens’ Studies College at Cornell University, will participate along with reknowned science fiction critic Robert Scholes, who wrote Structural Fabulation and Structuralism in Literature, and teaches at Brown University in Rhode Island.

Reiss Spectrum Staff Writer The track Bulls will be sprinting over to crosstown rivel Buffalo State this Saturday at 1 p.m. for the Big Four Meet with Niagara and Canisius. With the Big Four athletic conference set for operation in the fall, this meet promises to become a high point of the spring track seasons of the future. The Bulls figure to be very strong since they beat Niagara and Canisius last weekend at Fredonia. Concluding a disappointing road trip with Metropolitan Conference teams, the Baseball Bulls lost a heartbreaker to the Redmen of St. John on Monday, 2-0. Buffalo tost three of the four games.on the four-day trip, giving them a record of 2-12, including the games in Florida. The loss was especially tough for Bull pitcher Mike Dean. Dean went all the way -in the losing effort, pitching a four hitter. It was clearly the best performance by a Buffalo pitcher this year. Dean, a junior, threw only ninety pitches all game as he walked just two batters, compared to 27 by the Bulls’ staff in the previous three games. Even in his worst inning, he delivered only fifteen pitches. St. Johns scored the winning run in the first inning as a result of a Buffalo miscue. With shortstop Dave Restin on second and two outs, Dean got the Redmen’s Bill Scala to pop the ball up. However, Bull shortstop Jack Kaminska, who had been enjoying a fine season defensively, dropped the ball, allowing Restin to score. St. Johns scored its second and final run in the sixth when catcher Ron Tyler tripled home Restin who had walked earlier. The game was of quite a different nature than those which preceded it on the road trip. The first two games against Fairfield and the victorious match with LIU were high scoring contests. No breaks Against St. Johns on Sunday the pitching came through but the Bulls’ bats were silent when they needed it the most. Everything they hit seemed to be right at somebody as they left ten men on base. Twice they drove St. Johns outfielders to the fence with long Buffalo coach Bill asserted that teams make their own breaks and that the Bulls did not make any this time. The Bulls’ rebuilding process, according to Monkarsh, is coming along well. “We are more together now than we have been in a long time. We could break out any time. It’s good to see this kind of progress.’! Buffalo’s hitting, as expected, has been outstanding. Junior Bub Amico and sophomore John Mineo are both hitting over .400, Rick while Wolstenholme is hitting a torrid .475. Defensively, the Bulls have been improving gradually since the Florida games. The infield, playing together for the first time this spring, has worked out as well as could have been expected. However, pitching, which according to Monkarsh is “90 percent of college baseball,” still is the key. Although it has improved over the last two games, it must continue this trend for the rest of the Bulls’ season to be successful. fly balls.

Friday, 18 April 1975 . �GIF by Bruce Engel Dr. Ketter’s letter concerning the future of athletics has the potential to destroy tfie program. But if considered as a move to eventually produce a workable three to five year plan, than it might by the best thing that has ever happened to athletics. Dr. Ketter has set forth a plan .that he is not wedded to and wants challenged. Yet his proposals are sufficiently strong to stimulate (if not scare) people Into some serious discussion of the issues. Two problems money and professional pride have been threatening the program for quite a while. The difference now is that these issues are tied together in a unique way. According to the proposal, students pay the coaching staff and athletic director. The two heavy questions are; Can the SA afford this? and Will the professional On one level, - - coaches work under these conditions? Ketter’s proposal would take $60,000 out of the student budget for inframurals and recreation, but would add to it i portion of salary lines that probably total in the neighborhood of $200,000.The result is the total separation of intercollegiate athletics from intramurals and recreation, which is certainly desirable. It is obvious that students, no matter how much they" back athletics, could not afford to provide that much more money than they do now. But before we go off half cocked, claiming that the cost of coaching would be prohibitive to SA we should keep in mind that the students would have $60,000 to play with from intramurals and recreation and that no one knows how much money would be needed to hire coaching personnel. Presently most of the coaching, staff is on salary from the state as teachers who are allowed to substitute coaching time for a portion of their required teaching hours. If they decide to keep both jobs under two different employers, no one has yet determined how much they should get as coaches and how much as teachers. Now for the vital question, will the coaching staff, who have been upset enough that students control their budgets, be willing to" work directly for SA, even through the Vice President of Student Affairs? The preliminary answer is an outright no. These people have Courts filled Tennis reservation ‘racket’ at Amherst Bubble attacked Members of the University community who tried to reserve a tennis court at the Amherst Bubble have met with several difficulties other than the lack of space. Steven Schwartz, Director of Student Affairs, has received numerous complaints by people who say they tried unsuccessfully to make reservations either in person or by phone at 4 p.m. Reservations supposedly are not accepted before 4 p.m. but the complaints claim that all time slots have somehow been reserved by that time. “I don’t allow my staff to make reservations before four,” said Gary Sailes, director of the Bubble. “If I find them doing that I throw them (the reservations) away.” Sailes also reported that by 4:05 p.m. on most Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, which are the days for reservations, all of the courts have usually been reserved. Court hogs Bob Rauch, a student who has tried repeatedly to reserve a court, complained that people who have 4 p.m. reservations just keep asking for the same time slot. Since they have to show up to play, they make the reservations then and there, and in this way, monopolize the 4 p.m. slot. Mr. Rauch also noted that faculty members occasionally take the courts for their own use without reservations. There were also conflicting reports over why the Bubble had to curtail its operating schedule last week. The official explanation, according to Mr. Sailes, is that an informal survey was taken to determine when the heaviest use occurred. The survey found that it would be unprofitable to leave the Bubble open from 3—4 p.m., since so few people used it then. The Bubble was also closed on Saturday and Sunday evening for the same reason. No fewer hours Mr. Schwartz, on the other hand, claimed that the assistant equipment managers at Clark Hall were fired, and to retain their services, the students had to pick up the tab. As a result, there was less money available for the Bubble, so its hours were shortened. Mr. Sailes denied that the Bubble’s closing was due to lack of funds. Nevertheless, members of the Bubble’s staff have reported that their working hours have been cut more than the facility’s hours of $$$$ — operation. families. They need steady jobs and they desire the security of staying in health education should it split from athletics. And their professional pride might not let them work for students directly. On the other hand, it would not be possible for the school to employ all the coaches as teachers only. There isn’t that much teaching to do. The next logical move is for the coaches to look for jobs elsewhere . . . Rest assured that some of them are doing that. But this is no time to be looking for a job. One more factor leads me to believe that the coaches might just reluctantly work for SA if it came to that. While their security is in teaching, their egos are into coaching. Furthermore Dr. Fritz has claims that other schools have setups where coaching salaries come from student monies, which might alleviate some of the fears. Ketter has made it clear that SA would hire the athletic director and that he would hold that post and that post alone. Presently Dr. Fritz holds the more than full positions of Dean of the School of Health Education and director of athletics. It is not possible for one man to do both things properly at one time, and Fritz has, in fact, had to farm out a lot of his administrative duties. It is unlikely that SA would want to hire Fritz as its athletic director, which is probably fine with him at this point. But it might be hard to find a Qualified director, who would take a job with so precious little security. Two major portions of Ketter’s letter can’t be considered likely at this point. There is no reason to believe that the trustees or SA would support a separate athletic fee or a fixed portion of the student budget going to athletics every year. Nor is it likely that the state will fund intramurals and recreation, but Ketter’s not counting on that anyway. It is a good sign that he is willing to consider taking this expense out of the general University budget. The best thing about Kettcr’s letter is not what it says, for there is a lot that is both vague and potentially dangerous. What’s good is that it does say something. It does provide the proper parties with a starting point in meaningful discussion. And it strongly attacks the vital issues, something no one has had the courage to do until now. The best part is that Ketter’s silence on athletics is finally over, for it will take action if the problems are ever to be solved.

No. 78. Interdisciplinary major to focus on social sciences by Clem Colucci Special Features Editor The University’s first Faculty-wide Major program has won provisional approval from the SUNY Board of Trustees, two years and several revisions after Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) Dean Charles Ebert first endorsed the concept. The Faculty of Social Sciences and Administration’s Undergraduate Interdisciplinary Program in the Social Sciences will begin accepting students next programs were chosen because of demonstrated student interest and faculty strength in the areas. He estimated that there are currently 35 Specail Majors in Urban Studies and 20 in Environmental Studies. The number of pre-law students is in the thousands. The Faculty Major program was designed for students whose semester. Political Science Professor Clark Murdock, Director of the program, said the degree-granting programs have been organized around “substantive problems from an interdisciplinary focus.” He said the curriculum would probably prove more popular than if it had adhered to the original concept of offering various introductory core courses (for example, one sociology course, one geography course, one political science course, etc.) in the different social sciences. The first three programs to be offered will be majors in Legal Studies, Urban Studies, and Environmental Studies. Dr. Murdock said these Dr. Clark Murdock educational needs were not being served by the traditional departmental identification. Currently, any ■ student who receives DUE approval can pursue a Special Major in a field of concentration not offered at this University, but Dr. Murdock said some students were reluctant to lose identification with an established program. The degree in Social Sciences would be “a more marketable degree,” he explained. A formal program would be better able to attract resources, Dr. Murdock explained. Departments would be more willing to lend out faculty for courses in the Social Sciences program without as much fear of losing enrollment in the departments and thereby losing funding and justification for extra faculty lines. A formal program could handle administrative problems students in Special Majors encounter, Dr. Murdock continued. It would also be more effective in convincing departments to offer courses now offered infrequently, he explained. If the Urban Studies program, for example, gets enough students, the Economics Department would note increased demand for its rarely offered Urban Economics course and perhaps offer it every year. Isolated students with special majors could not prove to a department that sufficient demand for a course exists outside the department, but a formal program could. One of the most appealing aspects of the new program, said Dr. Murdock, is the possibility of close cooperation with the Colleges. Rachel Carson College and the College of Urban Studies are already working with the undergraduate social sciences program in their areas of expertise. If the first three programs prove successful, others will be created, Dr. Murdock noted. Such programs as American Political Economy and Society and Technology will be considered if demand appears great enough. Faculty reaction has been favorable so far, said Dr. Murdock. Many of the courses in the program involve joint teaching, which most teachers find stimulating. A teacheT who covers the same basic material year after year, although he may keep up with the latest developments in the field, eventually becomes stale. Teaching a course involving material outside a teacher’s speciality is considered good for breaking out of a rut. The most exciting new work in the various social sciences. Dr. Murdock pointed out, results from someone applying techniques and insights from another discipline. Responding to criticism that the planned programs appeal too much to growing pre-professionalism in American higher education, Dr. Murdock said the Legal Studies program, which would be most likely to attract pre-professional students, is not a pre-professional program. It will increase a student’s ability to get into or succeed in law school, he insisted. The other programs are more subject to that criticism, Dr. Murdock said, but “the functions of a University are changing.” He called it “needlessly purist” to disdain programs that are less strictly academic. If a less academic program meets peoples’ needs “that’s all for the better,” Dr. Murdock argued. The future of the program will “depend completely on student interest,” Dr. Murdock emphasized. Since the program was approved only recently, few students know about it, but Dr. Murdock said many students have seen the big sign outside his office and stopped in to ask about it. If the program attracts students it will be able to attract money and other resources. The program is starting small, Dr. burdock surmised, but he expects it to expand in the next few years to meet student needs. Informant served on defense FBI Attica infiltration exposed A 26-year old Buffalo woman admitted Saturday that she infiltrated the Attica defense and reported back to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on legal strategy planned for the former inmates who were indicted in connection with the 1971 prison uprising. The disclosure came shortly before Governor Hugh Carey announced the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate allegations that evidence of illegal activities by law enforcement officers were covered up by chief Attica prosecutor Anthony Simonetti. Ms. Cook acknowledged her FBI involvement in a press conference at the Statler Hilton. “I have a big mouth I said a lot,” she declared. She said she had reported to her “control agent” on the activities of the Attica defense during the long jury selection process. She informed him of the defense’s legal strategy, which she helped prepare. In Washington, an FBI spokesman confirmed Ms. Cook’s involvement with the FBI, acknowledging that she “has furnished evidence to the Bureau on a confidential basis for which she was paid.” The spokesman asserted, however, that Ms. Cook had “at no time furnished to the FBI information on the Attica defense.” — Encouragement Ms. Cook, a former graduate student in Catholic existential literature, was accompanied by lawyers and members of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War, who have been in consultation with her since she revealed her FBI activities two weeks ago. Ms. Cook was hired originally by the FBI to infiltrate the veteran’s group, but she said that her pay from the Bureau increased when she.began furnishing information on ,the Attica defense. She said her contact, Gary Lash, seemed very pleased, and encouraged her to continue supplying the information. Ms. Cook admittedly worked as an informant on both groups from June 1973 to October 1974. In another Buffalo news conference, William Kunstler, one of the lawyers in the Attica defense, announce; that he had submitted a motion to State Supreme Court Justice • Gilbert King, for an evidentiary hearing based on Ms. Cook’s information. Ms. Cook would not say whether Dacajewiah (John Hill) was one pf the defendents about whom she had informed, but indicated she would willingly testify at any court hearing. Dacajewiah and Charlie Joe Pernasilice, who were defended by Mr. Kunstler, were convicted last week of murder and second degree assault, respectively, in the death of prison guard William Quinn. Dismissal sought Mr. Kunstler feels the court should dismiss the convictions if Ms. Cook’s information proved valid. “It’s the same as Wounded Knee or Ellsberg it should be dismissed on the grounds of government misconduct,” he said. Ms. Cook’s admission came less than a month after Douglass Durham, a confident of the activist American Indian defendents in the WoundedKnee case, revealed that he had been a paid FBI informant at the timeof that trial. The defendents, also represented by Mr. Kunstler, were cleared of all charges. Unlike the Wounded Knee case, which was tried in a Federal court, the Attica prosecution is a state-wide matter. Mr. Kunstler was fearful that information conveyed by Ms. Cook to the FBI could have filtered down to the state prosecution, but conceded that no evidence could be found of such a link thusfar. A spokesman for the Attica prosecutor’s office, when informed of Ms. Cook’s statement, said: “If we receive any motion papers, we will of course analyze them and make our reply in a judicial forum.” — ‘No such informers’ At the beginning of the Uill-Pernasilice trial, the defense had asked the court to determine whether FBI informers had been utilized by the prosecution. This move was described by Mr. Kunstler as “a proper maneuver.” In response Jo the,motion, a representative of Mr. Simonetti’s office filed an affidavit asserting that agents in the FBI’s Buffalo office had said that “there are no such =5 5 informers working on any basis.” Ms. Cook said her major involvement with the Attica defense began in December of 1973, when she worked on the jury selection project. At the time, she was living with Ivan Makuch, an informer for the Bureau of Criminal Investigation for the state police, and was closely associated with Sidney Barring, a sociologist and lawyer, who was a coordinator for the Attica defense. Ms. Cook’s project concerned massive canvessing of people in Buffalo to establish criteria for jury selection. Mr. Barring was one of the creators of the Jury Survey Questionnaire, which was the basis for the selection of jurors in the Bill-Pemasilice case. �Schwartz to resign as Dean of Law and Jurisprudence by Kim Weiss Staff Writer Spectrum »> *t treatment —i. *■ > a oil slicks.

Under current state regulations, a body of water must maintain a Students cited Dr. Schwartz also expressed appreciation for Dr. Ketter’s contribution to the success of the Law School during his tenure. He said the administration’s funding has made it possible, over the past few years, to expand the student body frdm under 600 to 740. The library has grown to 200,000 volumes and is still progressing, and the faculty has expanded by specific “quality,” and any company that discharges nutrients into that body is prohibited from upsetting that quality. Federal joining in The federal government has also become active in the fight water pollution by against establishing the National Permit System in 1972, which mandates that any company discharging nutrients must obtain a permit. The company is allowed a specified amount of time to adhere to the permit’s conditions, if necessary, by building or improving its sewage treatment facilities. Bethlehem Steel has been “very cooperative” in complying with its permit’s conditions. The giant corporation spent $12 to SIS million in 1970 to build seven water treatment plants, according to 3 WQC spokesman. While the exact costs of the operation were not disclosed, Robert Allen, engineer of assistant fuel Bethlehem Steel, claimed that the company spends “many millions of dollars,” The permit system, which was designed to build and upgrade mM new treatment centers, along with the Federal Water Pollution Acts of 1968 and 1970, which prohibited .the discharge of specific pollutants into surface waters, effectively eliminated a great deal of industrial water pollution.

But while approximately $16 billion was allocated by Congress to fund the International Joint Commission, eight billion was impounded by former President Richard Nixon. The late President Lyndon Johnson was alsd accused to withholding money. In a U.S. Supreme Court battle between New York State and the federal government, New York maintained that the Executive could not legally impound funds appropriated by Congress. At the end of last year, however, the state won the court case and the eight billion dollars was restored. Three-fold agency The Great Lakes Laboratory has substantially influenced the establishment of arti-pollution measures. The lab, which is funded by the State University of New York (SUNY), along with federal and private agencies, employs research concerning water pollution and its biological, chemical, economic, legal, physical, and social ramifications. Recommendations by the lab have resulted in investigations of polluters and subsequent legislation. The lab was also instrumental in enforcing the phosphate ban and regulations against drilling for oil and gas in Lake Erie. Research is also being done on more sophisticated analytic tools, such as the absorption spectrophotometer, examines samples by them and passing a beam through the flame. This exposes the elements which burning of light process in the sample as well as their quantity. "The real crime of the pollution problem is that we do have the technology, but enough is not being applied-,” Dr. Sweeney said, adding that “If we add up the cost of pollution abatement (reduction) and contrast that with the benefits of commercial fishing, recreation, etc., we’ll find the benefits of pollution abatement far exceed the cost.” PHYSICAL THERAPIST Sat.

Staff Writer proposed Environmental Quality Code, which will deal specifically with the problems of oil pollution and working one-fourth. The programs of clinical training have also been supported by the administration. Dr. Schwartz reported. Dr. Schwartz is also proud of the law students’ achievements. They have played an important part in proposing policies for academics, budget, appointments, admissions, placement, and faculty-student relations. Students have also consistently contributed to the evaluation of teachers, he said. Dr. Schwartz cited as a mark of success a recent survey of the 1974 graduating law class which found that 89 percent of the class members who were contacted were employed in law-related positions. Dr. Schwartz added that continued efforts by faculty, students, and administrators should guarantee progress toward what tys been described by the American Bar Association's Council on Legal Education, as "one of the most promising futures of any law school in the country.” ' cleans up Lake Erie Lake Erie was Although termed a “dead lake” only a few years ago, it is now considered the cleanest of all the Great Lakes by the U.S. Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ).

One, the simulated law firm, “has aroused national attention as a means of relating analytic classroom studies of law with the world of law practice,” he said. The faculty has also begun, during this time, several projects which utilize interdisciplinary methods of study. Among these are the Law and Education Center, the State and Local Government Law Program, the Program for Training Lawyers as Criminal Justice Specialists, the Sea Grant Program, and the Law and Development Faculty Seminar. r'\ —— ; by Fredda Cohen Richard Schwartz will step down from his position as Dean of the Faculty of Law and Jurisprudence when his five year term is completed next year. He will remain at the Law School as a full-time professor. Dr. Schwartz, 49, explained that he is neither retiring nor resigning. He said he is leaving because another five years as Dean would “divert my attention for a long period of time from my ongoing research in the fields of law and sociology.” Although he was able to teach and develop research while holding his present post, Dr. Schwartz said he could not participate fully as a scholar. Dr. Schwartz is enthusiastic about the Law School’s long-range prospects. He said -he would hesitate leaving his post if he thought that it would jeopardize the work his faculty has done so far.

If 30% of the student body sign petitions, an election would be held to choose the bargaining agent. The union that receives a majority would be the agent. Since the U. Mass board includes two student trustees, the organizing project is hopeful, but doesn’t expect an answer until next fall. Money for the union project came from the student government, which still figures in plans for a unionized campus. “The student government will probably continue to exist after unionization,” said SOP coordinator Nesta King. “It could still allocate funds, but it doesn’t have the membership base to collective bargain.” King expected that when a contract for students is bargained with the administration, a role for the student government would probably be written in, just as many faculty union contracts guarantee certain faculty senate rights.

To get students, faculty and administration to agree on a contract would be an impossible chore, they say. So far, both student union projects have initially set their sights on bargaining separately with faculty and administration. The Stockton group already has a contract with its facultysunion, and the U’ Mass groups is keying its efforts on an administration-student contract. Rachel Carson College Summer coursework tries to ‘recreate’ community by Steve Milligram Staff Writer Spectrum Students enrolled in a special Rachel Carson College (RCC) summer course will work with the community to determine what areas of Buffalo are in need of recreational facilities. The course, “Environmental Internship,” will incorporate both classroom and field research, according to Geography professor Barry Lentnek, the / course’s instructor. Participants in the project will draw upr a questionnaire which they will distribute to the community. Once research is completed, the students will prepare a comprehensive report following federal guidelines for requesting aid to establish outdoor recreational facilities. The course is approved by the city administration and all results will be submitted to the Department of Human Resources and Urban Planning. deteriorating, Buffalo may eventually lose a large part of its population. His plan is to build recreation areas in abandoned, vacant lots, thereby utilizing them and increasing the property values. Citizens of a particular area would determine what facility would benefit them the most, and no more than six to eight blocks would be designated for the project. Information will be prepared along governmental guide lines on a benefit cost ratio the number of expected visitors to the site per dollar expended, annually. Shooting a moon Dr. Lentnek believes that one major problem encountered by urban planners is that, “they shoot for the moon, instead of starting small..He maintained that a small, relatively inexpensive group of outdoor recreational facilities would enhance the neighborhood and encourage people to remain, while drawing newcomers to the area. “Buffalp is burning down, so why not take advantage of it,” he said.

Wednesday, 16 April 1975 called the Elmwood community, which extends from west Main Street to Elmwood Avenue, and north from Allentown to Delaware Park. The Elmwood community will encompass all various socio-economic classes and individual groupings within the area will be set up so they may obtain the most advantageous type of facility. Possible facilities include "tot lots” for children under six years old, playgrounds, outdoor game areas (capable of supporting anything from basketball to hockey) and parks for the elderly. Another alternative is parking lots in areas where there is limited available parking. However, Dr. Lentnek pointed out that the choice will be up to the individual neighborhood through information obtained in the study. The greatest expense is the actual cost of acquiring the site. Construction and maintainence of the facility should be minimal, Mr. Lentnek indicated. The course is a true integration of the University and community and students are needed for the course to be effective. Dr. Lentnek believes this will be a valuable experience for those students interested in urban study, and will also enable students to work with local and federal governments. For further information, contact Dr. Lentnek at Ridge Lea 1611, or call the RCC office, 636-2319. �Shades of 1984 Assault on student privacy A university administrator, in his capacity as news director, gathers information on professors traveling abroad. After many years it is discovered that the official has been gathering the information into personal files and passing it on to an agent of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) several times a year. An Orwellian fantasy or typical practice on university campuses? In this case it is a true story, involving Dan Gasher, director of University (St.Louis) Medical School News Bureau, who for eight \years tollected and passed on information to the CIA, A often without the knowledge or J consent of the faculty members involved Gasher said he was Mr. motivated by concern over student unrest in the late 1960’s. The reason for the CIA’s interest in the travels of professors, he explained, dealt with their attendance at meetings and conferences where they would come into contract with communist scientists and might have access to information of value to national security. The CIA, FBI, city police and university security have all at one time or another been reported to be undertaking covert surveillance of students and professors, often actively working as saboteurs or posing as students. This practice of surveillance was recently ruled an invasion of privacy and a violation of freedom by the California Supreme Court. The decision was the first test of a academic voter-approved amendment to the state constitution which added the “right of privacy” as an inalienable right. on city campuses. The case came to court after UCLA history professor Hayden V. White charged in a suit that LA police have been posing as students and sitting in on his classes. Dr. White said the undercover officers used their presence in class to gether information abwut politically active students and faculty. Although the California decision concerned only the concept of surveillance and not ■ specific instances of it, there have been numerous examples of such intelligence gathering nationwide. At Berkeley, the university police have admitted that campus police tape political rallies, take photographs of rally participants, gather names and phone numbers of rally organizers and collect leaflets, handbills and media reports of political activities. University At the of Pennsylvania, the university security office has kept files on several area groups which may disrupt campus events. At the Los Angeles Trade Technical college the president has admitted bugging a meeting with students in his office. At George Mason University (VA) local police have been accused of infiltrating anti-war rallys to gather political intelligence and of distributing police badges and credentials to CIA agents. In the past it has been the CIA that has garnished the student spy headlines. A shocked academic community learned in 1967 that the CIA was covertly financing the National Student Association (NSA). The agency defended the funding by arguing that without American support students would have been unable to attend foreign communist and financial Soviet-dominated youth meetings represent to an American the viewpoint different from communist line. The implication was that the CIA was interested only in the foreign aspect of NSA and did not involve themselves in domestic intelligence. That issue has reared its head however, with the publication of The CIA and the Cult of Intelligence by Victor Marchetti and John Marks. In The Cla Marchetti says that when the NSA'story broke, CIA director again, Richard inquiry Helms called for an on the role of CIA involvement on campuses and asked his staff to find out just how many university personnel were under secret contract to the CIA. A report came back a few days later “listing hundreds of professors and administrators on over a hundred campuses.” The attraction on the campuses, according to Marchetti, are foreign students who can be recruited as espionage agents. Many universities have large a foreign student populations large number destined to return to their homeland and hold high government positions. — Foreign students were easy to recruit in this country, said Mr. Marchetti, because they need money foreign and because security forces cannot interfere. He then described the usual recruitment process: “To spot and evaluate these students, the Clandestine Services (a branch of the CIA) maintained a contractual relationship with key professors —Santos Attack prompts look into tighter security numerous campuses. When a professor had picked out a likely candidate, he notified his contact with the CIA and, on occasion, participated in the actual recruitment attempt.” on When contacted by the College Press Service. (CPS) about these allegations, a special assistant to CIA Director William Colby stated that the practice was “news to me” and that the Agency would have no official comment.

We thus are confronted with Don Vito Corleone advising his son Michael, “Neither a borrower nor a lender be;” Othello as a rabbi being analyzed byspsychiatrist Iago;and a Rosalind Russell Cleopatra committings suicide not with an asp, but with a Big Mac. These are random examples, more or less, but indicative of the kind of craziness that runs through much of Bride. The result is charming in two ways. First, there is the marvelous shock of merely seeings the Shakespearean chamber music being given Spike Jones treatment. More importantly, a moment of discerning viewing reveals how well this seemingly crazy quilt does in fact fit together. These scenes haven’t really been taken out of context, only out of again traditional context. A new context has been created which, on its own terms, is just as valid as the proper one. - — ‘ ‘ ’ ’ Labels diversion; BrideS makes no poin morestellinglysthan that thesivords find their own strength, and don’t need to be labeled by chapter and verse to retain meaning.

The painted clouds Vanessa James festoons her set with would be appropriate for a third grade production of The Littlest Angel, but for the presence of a jukebox and a coke machine: the Seraphim Bar and Grill, perhaps. The only possible way I could meaningfully communicate the genius of Michael Pelonero’s sequence at the end of the first act would be by quoting Lord Buckley on the subject of “sick” art/humor: “You say to yourself, ‘That’s no longer funny.; but if you proceed further, you find out there’s a whole new strata. Humor goes in a complete circle, like the world.” My point is not that Michael’s it’s probably sequence is funny the most serious moment in the entire evening but that he pursues the seeming perversity to the point where it touches the most basic human roots, cf. Tod Browning’s Freaks. - - Kudo I had qualms about mentioning Michael specifically, because anyone who doesn’t know at least half of the cast personally will probably be incapable of identifying anyone by name. That shouldn’t be interpreted as a slight; the general level of performance is quite high, surd everyone in the cast accomplishes something special during the evening. Bride is easily one of the most consistently well-acted plays I’ve seen done by the Buffalo Project/Theater Department.

I dor know. Someonestold messhe had a very bad cold and almost didn’t go on. I still don’t know ifsthat excuse holds with me. Music Editor I arrived at Kleinhans late last Tuesday night. I figured Eric Andersen wouldn’t be all that thrilling, I was really only interested in seeing Maria, and besides, the guy giving me a ride didn’t give me much choice. Eric was in the middle of his set when we walked in. He had a bass player and lead guitarist with him, and the sound was very pleasant, very mellow, you are your eyes can’t getting sleepy . .. stay open let’s go downstairs and get a drink. . .. Seriously, although the Canadian folksinger is renowned for his soft-flowing, sensitive songs, unless you’re really into the lyrics (which I wasn’t), it’s hard to get into his act. The tone of his voice is ok, but it sounded like he was putting all his energy into staying on key, and 1 couldn’t help squirming a little. Of course, his back-up was very good, and that certainly helped the sound. No support Marie Muldaur wasn’t that lucky. She told us at one point in the show: “This is my new band. We’ve been together a whole week and I really get off on it,” I’m glad she did. The band consisted of two guitars, a drummer, a keyboard man, and a girl on - harmony vocals and acoustic guitar. First off, the mix was atrocious. The lead guitars, except for the piano player more often than not, drowned out all the other instruments. And, player. Bill Finnigan, the fcand gave Maria none »f the support her frail voice required. • Even Amos Garrett, oneaDfsthe lead guitarists, who has played on her (and many other people’s) albums, played like the fingerboard was Greek to him. His leads weres sporadic, unrhymic, amelodic, and in general, very weak. The girl, (I think her name was Kerry Milligan), although she had a pleasant enough voice, acted like the only stage she had been on previous to Kleinhans was in Mr. Finny’s bam: her nervous moments did little to put mesat Gifldish charm Maria’s success in the music world has never resided in her vocal ability as suph. People like Bonnie Raitt, Joni Mitchell, Judy Collins, you go to see their vocal pyrotechnics. With Maria, you’re lucky if she hits the notes on key. But that’s part of her charm. Every song she sings, you sit there, plugging along with her. When she hits a clinker, you groan and squirm. When she hits a good note, you smile and say, “that’s my little girl.” Because she has that sincere, childish quality, sort of like how your parents felt watching you perform in the high school orchestra. But there were a lot of clinkers and amazingly few good strong solid notes coming out of her mouth that night, and after awhile, the charm disappeared. And part of the problem definitely was that she had to be so concerned with keeping the band playing together that she couldn’t concentrate on her singing. I wonder how this whole thing came about. Certainly the men at Warner Bros, could have gotten her more competent image. Thankfully, although she did some prancing around the stage in her tight jeans and translucent linen blouse, she kept that below the level of the obnoxious. ..And now, a few words of praise. Two of the best performances of the night were her renditions of songs from the forties: “Lover Man (Where Can You be)”, the old Billie Holiday standard, and a very romantic Duke Ellington mood-piece: ‘Prelude to a Kiss.” These numbers seemed to be really close to her heart, and she gave up got all night. _. , trying to improvise, or lead the Perhaps the point of all this is band, or be personable, and just concentrated on singing the songs. simply that the atmosphere was The best qualities of her voice: it’s wrong.

But in a place like Kleinhans, where people come to sit quietly and be entertained, Maria Muldaur just didn’t have what it takes. Of course, that’s only my feeling. Although they didn’t go wild, the crowd seemed to be enjoying the concert very much. Maybe when you’re paying $6.50, you can talk yourself into anything. musicians than these. If anyone should realize how important back-up is for her fragile talents, it would be them. “Tenessee Mountain Home” was a good example. On the album, the song succeeds on-the basis of its sparkling mountain sound (fiddle, mandolin, etc.) and the full sounding four-part harmonies. Although Maria played a passable fiddle solo in the beginning of the song, the band was just not there and the two-part harmony of Maria and her blonde friend was very weak — in comparison to the recording. Oldies but goodies A few words about her image. Since she hit the big time, Muldaur has been increasingly pushed towards a sexy mama IMSSUMMER ISRAEL IS COUNTING ON YOU! Will you respond?

The female has a little blue patch on one wing, while he is the usually well-colored male of this species. Any effort to feed them has so far been met but then one effort was made with with suspicion raw spinach, and success might have made them even more cautious. Watching them raised a number of curious questions for me: Why were they hanging around the house? Can ducks get imprinted on a house? How does it work that ducks can make a decision to stay with someone for the rest of their lives? What do they do when the puddles go away? Is someone supposed to maintain a puddle for them, or are they smart enough to go find water by themselves. There are two major issues which spring to mind out of this series of questions. One rather personal and the other, political. Being basically a coward, let us begin with the political issue. The political vision er, Ford, has to do with seeing President Edsel as a duck, lame or otherwise, whose puddle has just dried up Tl ■ and is not smart enough to go anywhere else. Our beloved leader wants a fat 722 million i Editorial Broadening the base of SA Discussions about Attica have attracted record crowds at recent meetings of the Student Assembly. Although this sudden upsurge in student participation can be viewed as a response to a very timely issue, which Attica of course is, it should also be interpreted as a sign that the Assembly can provide a forum for discussion and action on broad political issues, instead of concentrating only on campus-wide matters. That the Student Assembly came late to the support of the Attica defendants after months of hard work by the University's Attica Support Group matters little; the important thing Is that they responded. The open letter written two weeks ago by SA President Michele Smith and Executive Vice President Art Lalonde, which endorsed a resolution calling for the cancellation of classes so students could attend the courtroom vigil, was a refreshing change from the apolitical, Norton Hall-centered attitudes of past administrations. Although Ms. Smith's action was somewhat marred by subsequent statements she made indicating that further Attica resolutions might be futile, SA's initial recognition of Attica as an issue of universal importance was He crucial in attracting the large numbers of supporters who skipped classes to attend the rally. dollars in military aid for South Although the issues SA traditionally deals with !■# Vietnam.

The same logic holds true for Student Assembly give the man no bloody 722 million. At which point, meetings.

If these are the only students who care enough at the time to be present at the meetings, they should be looked upon as the student body, rather than as freaks who do not represent the students "out there," as some officers would have us believe. As issues arise in the future, the Assembly should be in the forefront, holding discussions, sorting out positions and generally crystallizing student opinion, rather than wasting its time, as it often does, debating obscure parlimentary points and claiming that the large numbers who have To the Editor. assembled do not speak for the student body. The only way In response to Mr. Greenbaum’s article “Unique SA can ever be truly effective is to somehow presonalize rules separate sexes” (The Spectrum 4/2/75, page issues for many students; by ignoring the presence of a large 17), I am tremendously disappointed in his bloc of interested students, particularly those who have presentation and analysis. He makes an accurate in his philosophical team concept of turned out to support Attica, SA will only be squandering presentation play and he displays a realistic approach with his the lifeblood of support it so desperately needs to become a mention of men not dominating the boards as per viable force. the “uniqueness of the rules.” - . — - — — - — — - — - - Congress. I am not in the business of trying to convince anyone that the Congress of the United States is the smartest bunch of people in the world, but there seems to be enough internal sens? to recognize when they are being set up to be a fall guy, a scapegoat, or whatever phrase you wish to use to indicate the party what takes the blame for things not their fault. The odds were against Ford getting what he wanted anyway. To make noises about military intervention too was incredibly dumb. His puddle dried up and he is too dumb to even know it. Or else he is trying to blame the end of Spring on the United States Congress. Which may have made a lot of stupid mistakes in its hfe, but spring? Having mucked about in muddy reality long enough, I now feel compelled to deal with the more personal issue raised by the aforementioned ducks. Which involves the human side of mating behavior. How is it that ducks are able to make decisions about spending the rest of their lives with one other single solitary duck with apparent equanimity? Whether they are part of a flocjc or not seems aside from the point. Ducks pair up, basically, as 1 understand it, for life. Why for then, do humans in general, and this particular human in particular, have such outrageous problems doing something which is simple for ducks. (Kindly leave flying, and keeping ones head underwater for long periods of time, out of this discussion.) When we move this discussion to mammals, things obviously become rather more complicated. Some mate for life and others just hang out long enough for procreative purposes. Primates are equally difficult to pin a label on. Some live in more or less constant relationships, and others live in no smaller group than a flock, or goggle, or whatever one calls a large band of primates. All of which would not be so bad, for me, personally, if it went one way or the other. It feels as if I would be willing to be a monogamous creature, or a non-monagamous one. it is this ambivalence that is driving me mad, mad, mad. Why is it that human beings seem to be the only ones who are, or at least behave as though they were, of two mixed minds on the whole issue? Why do we want to be secure, on the one hand, and free to go off and explore, on the other? None of which probably has an answer. We are whomever we are, and the name of the game is struggle towards who you would like to be. It must be pleasant to be as clear and unambiguous about anything as Ford and Kissinger are about Southeast Asia. Think how much better it would feel to be right as well. Happy Spring, and remember, only 22 calendar days to the end of classes. Good luck.

The Spectrum Wednesday, 16 April 1975 . What was lacking was Mr. Greenbaum’s consultation of the rules. If the rules state that a team shall consist of six players: three men and three women, how can one sex then be main members? I feel it’s clear why one would not want men entering the lane as the obvious would result; women would be excluded from the game. Men are not excluded from the game as they usually bring the ball into the offensive zone, a strategically important role, and take their share of shots. Your reporter has a serious sense of myopic vision in not realizing that the maximum number of people on the court at one time is 12. To have 12 players in one zone would create havoc. By having 8 plavers in one zone reduces confusion. Besides, most teams alternate the role of the player so everyone gets a chance to play. Each role is vitally important to the team concept* of play. Does not Mr. Greenbaum consider the famous axiom: A good defense makes a good offense, or vice versa? Strategy is part of every game. Hundreds of books have been written on the notion of strategy for every sport. The consensus is that strategy is the individual team’s perogative to be decided by the coach or captain. Situations in sports are relative and unique as well as are the most effective strategies. Mr. Greenbaum does not consider this point. As to teams having fun; well, fun is another relative term that his article offers a subjective view of. What’s fun for team A might not be fun for team B. Who then can you say is right? the consensus of the teams is that they did have fun. Perhaps Mr. Marcario and Miss Hanlon, as well as Mr. Greenbaum, could have been better organized in their efforts. All were on a team that suffered a losing season, which in my opinion makes their comments out of context. It would have been more desirous for them to have offered positive criticism and alternatives to the problems as they perceived them. If Mr. Greenbaum plans to continue his career as a reporter, he should research his articles better. If he plans to quote someone, he should read the quote back to the individual to avoid confusion. The questions he raises are not entirely relevant to the co-ed basketball program. Over 300 students participated through 24 teams this semester. Mr. Greenbaum’s attempts to make the program a political issue are out of context. He should devote more of his efforts to researching alternatives that he might perceive to create a more fulfilling co-ed intramural program. Ideas and positive criticism are always welcomed by us. We feel if you don’t have a viable alternative or a change that will generate more interest, then you have no basis to complain. As for the most important issue, Mr. Greenbaum grossly misquoted me. My initial query was, "Do you want men and women competing against one another?” The co-ed league is designed for men and women to play together and that’s what we want. That’s the sole purpose of the activity. For men and women to compete with each other is an entirely metaphysical concept that the co-ed basketball program wishes not to be involved in. Our main purpose is and always will be to -provide an opportunity for people to play and have fun together. ' - Edward R.

Keep supporting the Attica Brothers To the Editor. Recently many people of U.B. have expressed support for the Attica Brothers by signing petitions and attending rallies. Even though Charlie Joe and Dacajeweiah were convicted, the struggle in the courts is not over! Right now there are five brothers on trial Shango Bahati Kakowana, El Rock Moriba, JaJa Nkomo Kalomo, Ruiz Quintana and Robert Dugarm. They want and need our presence in the courtroom every day. We can’t wait for the verdicts to come down before showing our support. For more information stop at the Attica Support table in Norton Hall. A ttica Support Group — and WHEREAS, this task force recognizes, as citizens of one world, the need for constructive change: toward a less consumptive lifestyle; toward a more healthy and nutritious diet; an intensification of our nation’s tradition of humanitarian concern for the hungry and neglected of our world and country, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT I, STANLEY M. MAKOWSKI, Mayor of Buffalo, New York, proclaim the week of April 14 through April 20,1975 “WORLD FOOD WEEK’ a week of education,, reflection and resolve toward the improvement of the quality of life among all peoples by attention to the problems of food and nutrition. Stanley Tolerance M. Makowski of women athletes To the Editor After reading Joy Clark’s article on the Amherst Bubble, I have several questions and comments. First, who are you, Mr. Monkarsh, to dictate whom I should play basketball with? If I enjoy playing a serious and physically rough game of basketball without girls, why shouldn’t I be able to do so? Your idea that the bubble should be used by all the University Community is misleading and assinine since it is physically impossible. The bubble should be available to the entire University Community and should be used only by those persons' interested enough to enter through the door. Secondly, there are six half courts. If two are reserved for women every night, this represents one-third of the playing surface. Since the women represent by my observation one-tenth of the users (which by the way is a somewhat conservative figure) I and any other rational person would think this is more then adequate. Nevertheless, I particularly like Mr. Monkarsh’s idea of having a women’s night. This way the five or six girls that use the bubble on any given night can each have a basket to shoot at! Or better yet, perhaps Mr. Monkarsh should adopt Rena Hex’s philosophy who stated, “I’d like to play if all the people would disappear from the courts.” This way one girl at a time can trot around (or is it twat around) all six courts by herself!!! Last, but by no means least, for the girls who are embarrassed by playing at an adjacent court to men stop worrying; nobody is looking; it’s just wishful thinking on your - part! Richard Hohenstein NYPIRG seeking student input To the Editor. In the interest of opening communication channels between NYPIRG, the Student Assembly and the student body and bypassing the prejudices of various members of student government and media, I would like to present you with the facts currounding the proposed constitutional amendment and adjoining court case. Two years ago there was a student-wide referendum which mandated a reordering of priorities within the existing Student Association budget to fund NYPIRG on this campus at an equitable level with the other member schools of NYPIRG (eg. Queens College contributes over $100,000, Syracuse University about $50,000). It is now two years later and a major reordering has still not taken place. Frustrated by the inability of SA to ever make this major reordering of priorities, we decided to go directly to the student body once again, to ask a simple question: “Would you pay three dollars a year to support the activities of the New York Public Interest Research Group?” Unfortunately, the SA constitution does not allow the determination of the student body to be binding on the matter. So we sought to change this flaw in the system. SA President Michele Smith all of a sudden has accused us of trying to “sneak through the backdoor” on this issue. First of all, Michele Smith definitely knew of our intentions for over a month, as did Arthur the members of the Student-Wide Lalonde, Judiciary, Editors of The Spectrum, Michael Jones and Mindy Lubber who are members of the Finance Committee and Assembly, about fifty active mebers of the local PiRG, and all the people these people told. In fact, at a meeting held on March 6 of this year, which Michele Smith, Arthur Lalonde and a number of other people attended, we were given their personal support on the entire issue, including the court case. The only reservation Michele had at this time was whether we could in fact win such a referendum. When I talked to Michele a couple of weeks after that about the upcoming case, she said there was a good chance that SA, in the interests of students, would come on our side in the suit. It was not until this past Wednesday, the day the case was supposed to have been heard, that we heard of Michele’s sudden change in face and subsequently, the next day, parts of the Executive Community (minus Robert Cohen and Judi Young) who were not notified of the meeting) voted to endorse this point of view, condemning our actions. As far as approaching the Assembly on the issue is concerned, after it was strongly suggested by a number of people that we should do this in addition to the court case, we did so by proposing an amendment to it was eventually brought up and subsequently the Assembly will be voting on it was' the eventually brough up and subsequently Assembly will be voting on it this Wednesday. I find fascinating this notion that the use of the courts is considered to be a “backdoor” approach. Is that what you would have told the southern blacks in the late fifties and sixties when they went to the courts instead of the Alabama Legislature to end de jure segregation. How about the women groups who won the right to abortion in the Supreme Court. Should they have only pursued the matter in the legislative branch of government? The Court’s role by design and tradition has been to provide an important check on our other branches of government and have offered an aggrieved person or persons an alternative route to change an injust situation when the other passages have been cloked. Whether or not there is merit in our case is for the court to decide and not an SA President or newspaper columnist. After all, the Student-Wide Judiciary has been empowered directly by themselves to act as this check. And in answer to the question who is this “money-hungrey interest group” called NYPIRG. We are the New York Public Interest Group, a bunch of students working, for no pay, with a bunch of underpayed professionals, in the interest of all students. We are students doing research, students working at the state legislature, students looking to share with all other people the idea that an individual can make a difference and that problems can be solved if tackled skillfully. Richard Sokolow New Yawkers leave by sundown To the Editor. I am confused with the attitude of most of the “foreign” students here at UB. They repeatedly downgrade my home, my friends, and in a way, my life. A fundamental question must be asked, “Why are you people here?” I do not appreciate nor do I understand the position these people take. It is obvious you do not enjoy it around here so why don’t you go home, maybe your mother will welcome you because 1 surely don’t. I have witnessed several conversations, read many a subtle comment, and listened to long lectures which say, “My city sucks!” Well I say, “Fuck you!” Mr. Alzamora, the only “zombie-like” people in Buffalo are the ones blown away by good Columbian. Granted, we are not the most picturesque metropolis, nor are we the entertainment capital of the world, but we do have some people who give a shit. We con’t flee our home merely to infect others. I suggest that all that hate Buffalo leave before sundown and the ones who choose to stay might even learn to enjoy it. We do have some fine party-ers in this city. Allan Barth If you hadn’t already noticed New Yawkers, this was for you. Wednesday, 16 April 1975,. The Spectrum . Page nine �Alzamora not the on/y Yankee fan To the Editor. The Spectrum has printed many mistruths, but I was appalled by the out and out lies that appeared in the April 11 issue. I think it is a fine idea that Sparky Alzamora did the TGIF column, but he should stick to the facts. He states that he and his friends were “the first white UB students ever to get stuck a mile for the stadium on opening day in order to see the visiting team.” I wish to refute this, as the car in which I was riding was also stuck a mile from the stadium, but we must have arrived earlier, because we only heard the first half of the first inning on the radio; after that we got fed up and Backfire parked on the grass in the general vicinity of Cleveland and ran the rest of the way. I must say, though, it was a disappointment after all that cursing at Indian’s fans in the can next to us. The only good (?) thing about the day was that the businessman who was sitting next to me offered me consolation enow to help me hold back tears. But back to the original point. I hope Mr. Alzamora now realizes that he is not the only Yankee fan loyal enough to go to Cleveland; in fact, I know of at least one other carload of people from UB. So, do not feel like a martyr. You were just one of many. Susan Shelton North Campus residents inconvenienced To the Editor. In an article on the cost of going to school appearing in The Spectrum, a head resident named Rick Schoellkopf called for eliminating the 10 percent discount in room rent that people at the North Campus are entitled to. Mr. Schoellkopf asserted that Main Campus residents who have who have to pay their room rents. Thirdly, Mr. Schoellkopf, do you really believe that it is no longer an inconvenience to live at Amherst? When one has to catch a bus, the vagaries of which need not be gone into again, to go to a fully stocked library, to go to the student union, to go to a professor’s office, to go to a store (for something other than books or food)? Proximity to Ellicott classes “don’t think it’s fair.” classes is only one aspect of convenience or Now, Mr. Schoellkopf, several questions arise. inconvenience. Perhaps most importantly, if you feel it is unfair Can you name us one Main Street resident you have ever talked with who “doesn’t think it’s fair,” to have a differential in rent between the two especially since there are many empty rooms at campuses, why do you assume the correct remedy is ElUcott which Main Street residents have the option raising the rent for Amherst residents? Why not lower it for Main Street dorm-dwellers, or set both of moving into (the reverse is not true).

The Spectrum Wednesday, 16 April 1975 . Individual thinking a must To the Editor Hurray for Clem Colucci! That was the sanest article in The Spectrum (Mon., April 7) 1 have read. The man who lets his neighbor do his thinking for and the stuff of social disaster. him is a fool - B. Smith Alzamom is invalid To the Editor. I like Sparky Alzamora. I sit with him in my music class. He happens to be a fairly competent writer. I have been insulted many times about many things, and usually I complement the insultor on how well he insults me. However, I am not affected by insults. Accordingly, Mr. (and I use the term loosely) Alzamora’s biting remarks in the TGIF of April 11 did not phase me in the least. Alzamora can freely insult my personality or my appearance, but his apparent devotion to a team that has no talent, no team or individual personality, no enthusiasm and most of all, no fan appeal, immediately eliminates his validity as a sports commentator of any kind. David J. Rubin P.S. Sparky Alzamora and the Yankees should all eat shit, die, and be reincarnated into themselves for another lifetime of self-torture. No smoking laws in effect To the Editor I would Like to know why UB has made a minimal attempt to inform the University populace of the effects of Erie County’s no-smoking law. Since April 1 it has been illegal to smoke in any classroom, library or lecture hall. On May 1, county health officials will begin to enforce these regulations. Obviously nobody wants to pay up to a $500 fine, yet after two weeks relatively few signs have been posted. As a non-smoker I appreciate this law and I hope all smokers are mature enough to refrain from smoking. Regarding those individuals who persist in smoking, there is recourse. Complain to your professor, if he does nothing complain to the health authorities. According to my information, the health authorities will hold the professor responsible and levy the fine against him.

But isn’t society guilty of presuming perpetual guilt, of continuing to hold the person in debt forever, of making it incredibly difficult for ex-convicts to succeed in the outside world? It is easy to say that the struggle for justice must continue. The attention of the press and the public will almost certainly diminish now that the first episode is done. Yet, if last weekend’s verdict so discourages the struggle that there is little support during the appeals and trials to come, then the State will have won. Change in America comes painfully, tortuously, almost imperceptibly slow, but it will never come at all if initial defeat is enough to stop the struggle. It is easy to continue when victorious; it is vital to continue when not. To those who came here in 1971, the riots of Spring 1970, were already past history.

I remember September 13, when the State ended the siege with bullets. Today, many who are concluding their four years here face the final weeks of their college education concerned about graduate school and job prospects, deluged with letters about credit cards, yearbook photos and college plaques to mark the completion ofiheir undergraduate days. Today, Dacajewiah and Charlie Pemasilice, who have also undergone an education of sorts since September 1971, through no choice of their own, sit in jail, with Saturday evening’s verdicts to mark the end of a major chapter of Attica. Indeed, Attica has been a stark companion to the Class of 1975. Just as Watergate did not begin on June 17, 1972, nor end with the guilty verdicts for Haldeman, Erlichman and Mitchell, Attica did not begin on September 9 or end on Saturday night. Both are stains on the claim that there is justice in America. Has enough been done to erase either scandal? Have the real roots of either been removed? The fundamental problems are still there. There have been no explanations for the carnage and lies of the state police assault of September 13. The legal system allows the travesties of Nixon and Agnew, whose greatest punishment, many felt, was the loss of their high offices. The prisons remain, as Dalou Asahi said, “schools to train more proficient criminals.” An ex-convict who runs Delaney Street, an unusual rehabilitation program in San Francisco, compares the rehabilitative value of American prisons with that of caging a dog. “If you put a dog in a cage and kick him every day for five years, then ask him if he has learned his lesson, the first thing he’ll do when of the cage is bite your foot.” he The verdict Saturday was a loss for Dacajewiah and Pernasilice, but not a victory for the State. Dacajewiah is 23. He faces maximum life sentence. He was 19 at the time of the riot in Attica, finishing a four-year sentence for armed robbery. Charlie Joe Pernasilice was at Attica in 1971 for violating parole. Now 22, his only conviction was for stealing a motorcycle in Syracuse when he was 16. There is a general belief that these men are guilty simply because they were in prison at the time of the crime for which they have just been convicted. This attitude, that people are in prison for a good reason, may have permeated the atmosphere of the courtroom in downtown Buffalo and the world outside.

Will the fervor vanish before the haphazardly-painted Attica protest signs become illegible? A look at the bound copy of Fall 1971 issues of The Spectrum makes it sickeningly apparent that little has changed in what Attica symbolizes. Perhaps those who read the bound volume from Spring 1975 four years from now will be able to deliver a more optimistic verdict.

The Bulls won only one of ten games in Florida and lost their first two games up north to Fairfield. Last December Buffalo’s basketball team upset LIU for its first win of the season. The Bulls’ baseball victory can also be considered an upset. The Blackbirds are undefeated in the tough Metropolitan Conference, including a win over highly rated Seton Hall. The Bulls have a rainout to make up with Seton Hall. As usual, Buffalo’s offense was potent, lead by the continued vicious hitting of Mike Dixon (see Athlete of the Week picture), John Mineo and Rick Wolstenholme. The difference in this game was that the Bulls pitching was greatly improved. Junior fastballer Rick Kobel started the game and broke off enough good curves along with his usual smoke to carry him through four shutout innings. He was starting to let up in the fifth when a line drive to his head forced him out of the game. The win eventually went to short relief specialist Don Salvatore, who kept the Blackbirds from - winning the game after they had come back to tie it in the ninth and then held them scoreless in the tenth. But the best thing about the Bulls pitching is that Kobel, Mike Klym and Salvatore gave up only four walks between them, a far cry from the 23 yielded by Buffalo hurlers at Fairfield last Friday and Saturday. The Bulls put two runs across in the first extra inning. Mike Whelan, pinch running for Dixon who had tripled, slid in under the catcher’s tag on a ground ball off the bat of John Kidd. Shortstop Jack Kaminska then singled in Kidd who had made it to second while Whelan was scoring. Kaminska played a fine game, fielding eight chances without an error. The completely new infield of Bob Amico, Mike Groh, Kaminska and Jim Zadora seems to be shaping up rather well. “It was a good win,” said coach Bill Monkarsh in the understatement of the young season. “We could be on the way back now,” he added. However, the Bulls could use more pitching help if they are to have a winning year. Injuries to their two top starters, Jim Reidel and Bill Lasky, have hurt badly and the return of either or both would be quite a boost. Reidel is recovering from a shoulder injury, Lasky a hernia operation. Statistics box at L.I.U. Sunday, April 13.

Buffalo’s Ron Hoffman defeated Ravi Prakash in the men’s singles. But Prakash teamed with Jim Irani to beat Hoffman and Dan Barth in the doubles. In women’s competitions, Canisius’ Geri Kennan beat Mary Zaepfel from Brockport in a very tight match. They then teamed to defeat Buffalo’s Chris Barone and Marilyn Dellwardt in the doubles. Believe it or not, Keenan and Hoffman defeated Prakash and Zaepfel in the finals of the mixed doubles. These four must really love the game. The tournament was sponsored by the UB Badminton Club and the Indian Student Association.

Both have gone over six feet in practice. New faces McDonough has brought in several promising runners, while two of Richardson’s basketball recruits, freshmen Roland Maples and Ron McGraw, have turned out to be excellent high jumpers, filling what had been a void in the Bulls squad. “They both came to me and said they wanted to jump,” spring. Forced to come right from the 220-yard dash to the jumping pit, Eldred, who hasn’t been outside enough to perfect his technique, had to outjump Fredonia’s Joel Villani, who set a school record in the event. Stephen’s tired legs just weren’t up to the task. For the first time in years, Buffalo can brag of depth in most events. With Walt Malady in the weights, the Bulls have a strong shot putter, capable of points in both the javelin and discus. The Bulls are pretty well set in the shorter running events, with Stephens in the sprints, but are a good distance away from a completely rebuilt team. �CLASSIFIER Wlnspear). subletters for summer, fully furnished, near shopping.

No. 77 State University of Monday, 14 April 1975 New York at Buffalo New York’s senator explains: Increased workload hampers congressional effectiveness Group calls for the old SA constitution by Kim Weiss Spectrum Staff Writer An ad-hoc committee of Student Assembly members will propose a referendum at Wednesday’s Assembly meeting calling for the reinstatement of the old constitution until a new one which “meets the needs and priorities of the University students.” is drawn up. The group criticized the current constitution, adopted last February, because there was very little Assembly input into its creation. It was simply “railroaded through,” charged Robert Cohen, a spokesman for the group. Mr. Cohen claims that neither the student body nor the Student Assembly members thoroughly understood the constitution before they voted to adopt it. He said that Bruce Lang, chairman of the Assembly’s Constitutional Reform Committee, virtually wrote the new constitution himself without asking the Assembly’s advice. Lack of information The Assembly members “never even knew the scheme of the constitution until one week prior to the general referendum,” when Bruce Lang first attempted to explain the document to them in fifteen minutes, Mr. Cohen charged. The SA Executive Committee promoted the new constitution with advertisements in The Spectrum but never fully explained it, according to the dissident Assembly members. Instead, shallow slogans like, “Vote yes for mandatory fees; vote yes for SA constitution,” were used, they charged. Mr. Cohen asserted that the only voice of dissent was a single open letter which he and fellow Assembly member Richard Sokoiow-wrote. The second objection to the constitution is that it fails to place restraints on the executive power, according to Andrei Gadson, another spokesman for the group. Article I, Section 2 of the constitution provides for three task forces; Academic Affairs, Student Affairs and Student Activities and Services. But the Student Senate “shall have the power to finalize all .” legislation initiated in the task forces out that the officers of the Executive pointed Gadson since Mr. Committee dominate the Student Senate, and participate in the task forces, all decisions are greatly influenced, if not finalized, by the Executive Committee officers. Mr. Gadson believes the task forces will tend to respond to the wishes of the “possibly more experienced” officers. There is no separation of powers, Mr. Gadson charged, adding, “The power has only been changed in name from the Assembly to the Senate.” Furthermore, the group pointed out, there is less student representation than ever before. The petition that was formerly used to elect representatives to the Assembly at a ratio of one for every 40 students has been abandoned. Now, only the people in each task force will be making the decisions and legislative recommendation, the Assembly members said. Messrs. Cohen and Gadson both feel this is a very dangerous situation. In addition, Mr. Gadson said SA President Michele Smith and Executive Vice President Art Lalonde have bad some reservations about the constitution, even though they have not voiced them. The group has also criticized the present constitution for its inherent contradictions and omissions. Jon Burgess pointed out that according to Article XI Amendments, the constitution may be “amended by either the Student Senate or the undergraduate student body." However, if an individual or group does attempt to amend the constitution he will be thwarted by a provision in Article VI, which reads: “The Student Senate shall have the sole authority to amend these constitutional bylaws .. .*’ by Jody Gerard Spectrum Staff Writer Although the post-Watergate era has witnessed attempts by Congress to recover authority lost to the Executive Branch, Congress may have already reached the limits “of its capacity to discharge the responsibilities vested in the Congress by the Constitution,” according to Senator James Buckley (C-R, N.Y.). In a speech Friday in the Law School’s Moot Court Room, Senator Buckley said the workload of — — React to policy As a result, Congress can no longer generate policy, but only react to it, he said. But there are reforms available, Mr. Buckley stressed. There should be a “meaningful period of time” between the time a bill is considered out ofcommittee and the time it is deemed ready for floor debate. This way, he explained, a particular bill can be a public document long enough for the public to “dig into it” before a Vole is taken. Another problem has been the increasing number of restrictions on state and local governments. “Responsibility has gravitated toward Washington,” Senator Buckley said. “Over the years, this has robbed our society of flexibility, of creativity, of productivity, and in the process, is eroding many of the traditional safeguards to which the founders of this country have looked to for the ultimate protection of individual freedoms.” .. Negligence Mr. Burgess also pointed out that “out of sheer negligence” the elite group which finalized the constitution omitted the traditional power of 10 percent of the Assembly members to call an SA meeting. “Because they threw the constitution together so fast, no one noticed the omission of this significant principle,” Mr. Burgess explained. Another inequity in the system, said Mr. Gadson, is that both the Academic Affairs and Student Affairs Task Forces are able to elect ten representatives to the Senate, while members of the Student Activities and Service Force are elected from the entire student community. Mr. Gadson views this as a “deliberate undercutting of the voting power of all clubs and interest groups.” Congressman must handle, Senator Buckley removed from his breast pocket a pink schedule card which he said “ordains” his day. At 10 a.m., for example, a legislator may have three committee meetings to attend at the same time. Senator Buckley said this makes it virtually impossible for him to keep track of one-tenth of the that legislation goes through Congress. Consequently, innumerable bills of extraordinary importance cannot be knowledgeably voted on, Senator Buckley explained. He described the voting procedure on some bills as “rushing on the floor, trying to find some friendly face whose judgement you trust, and getting a two minute capsule of what it’s all about.” This is a “rather sloppy way of doing our nation’s business,” Mr. Buckley surmised. Once upon a time, the Senate rightly and proudly claimed the title of the world’s greatest deliberative body. Today it is impossible literally to try and spend two consecutive impossible minutes within which to blend your thoughts,” Senator Buckley declared. Federalism The only way to restore the capacity of federal government to work effectively and responsibly is to “rediscover and apply the principle of federalism” giving the states authority over their internal affairs. Federalism, Mr. Buckley explained, “has been historically one of the great sources of strength and innovation in the American system.” ... — —Carr James Buckley the “average congressional office” has quadrupled over the past decade. The division of authority between federal and state governments is no longer as apparent as it once was, Mr. Buckley said. Today, he explained, there is “literally no itch on the body politic that is not within the range of somebody within the Congress to scratch.” Omburdened To illustrate the overwhelming workload a Under the “rule of subsidiarity,” whereby governmental responsibilities are delegated to the lowest level of government “competent to handle it,” a more balanced distribution of responsibilities would be created so that any one level of government need not be overloaded, he said. Such a system, the Senator continued, would bring governmental responsibilities more in touch with those who are being governed. Mr. Buckley said the next step would be to assign to each level of government a “taxing authority” appropriate to its needs. Building responsibility in a self-governing society requires citizens to become “immediately involved to make their own rules,” Senator Buckley said, expressing the belief of Thomas Jefferson that the “people can be trusted to govern themselves.” In closing, Senator Buckley quoted Lord Atkins on the American Constitution, who said, “By the development of the principles of federalism, it has produced a community more powerful, more prosperous,Tnore intelligent and more free, than any other that the world has seen.” * �Joint resolution New ‘Dimension’ This coming Friday, there will be no Prodigal Sun (Arts-Music- section in The Spectrum. Instead, there will be a special edition of Dimension (The Spectrum's feature magazine). This year, Dimension is devoted to the movies and related media. Buckley sees no alternative’ to supporting military aid bill ‘ U.S. Senator James L. Buckley (C-R, N.Y.) said Friday that he will support President Ford’s proposal to send military and humanitarian aid to Saigon. At a press conference at the Law School, before addressing students in the Moot Court Room, the Senator refused to commit himself to the $772 million figure offered by the President, saying he “will propose whatever the appropriate figure is.” If he cannot determine this figure, Mr. Buckley said he would “have no alternative” but to support the President’s request. He conceded, however, that Congress will probably veto President Ford’s proposal. Senator Buckley explained that the question of military assistance is “simple this: Will we, the United States, deny people we fought with ten years the capacity to defend themselves?” Senatory Buckley also mentioned that if Congress approves the aid, American troops would likely be sent to help evacuate the 6,000 Americans who are still in Saigon, along with the more than 150,000 people there “who once worked for the United States.” The latter would probably be evacuated to “base facilities” in neighboring countries. Rabbit in a hat “We’re talking about human beings that by every historical evidence are going to be slaughtered in the tens of thousands,” the Senator said. Asked whether Saigon would be able to defend itself even with the aid. Senator Buckley responded that while it is “possible, we may be pulling a rabbit out of a hat.” “Either we condemn the South Vietnamese to being taken over by the communists in North Vietnam,” the Senator declared, “or we give them a fighting chance.” He added that the South Vietnamese can defend themselves only with equipment, and that the United States is the only place “they can get it.” “I, therefore, will vote for such military aid as is necessary to give them that chance,” he concluded. Release time “If for no other reason” the money should be appropriated “to buy the time with whi ;h to get the Americans out,” he explained. Asked why the United States does not remove the 6,000 Americans still in Vietnam, he said such a move would “precipitate a panic” in the capital city, with a coupled A Saigon. panic, “bitter-anti-Americanism built from a sense of betrayal,” would make it “devilishly hard to get 1,000 Americans out, let alone 6,000,” Mr. Buckley said. Senator Buckley referred to the psychological effect “772 million would have on the South Vietnamese, explaining that it would help them “overcome a sense of hopelessness and betrayal.” Legislature asked to restore ‘vital funds’ should be working together so that we have an equal level of action.” by Howard L. Greenblatt Spectrum Staff Writer As part of the continuing fight against budget cuts, the Student of Association the State United University (SASU) and tl\e University Professionals (UUP) issued a joint resolution last week calling upon the New York State legislature to restore vital funds to the State University. Letters Recent efforts to lobby for increased funding include a state-wide letter writing campaign to state legislators. Letter-writing booths have been set up in key areas around the campus, and The Buffalo chapter of UUP. which is the local bargaining agent and faculty members of professional staff, the Graduate Student Association (GSA), and the local members of SASU have all issued a shortened version of the resolution. local The resolution version affirms of the that the students, faculty and non-teaching professionals at this University will resist any attempts to raise revenues for SUNY by increasing the cost of higher education. “We join together in calling upon the legislature of the State of New York to . . . insure that the operating budget of SUNY is restored to a level which will be sufficient tomaintain high quality, low-cost public higher education available to all citizens of New York State.” Constantine Yeracaris more than four hundred students already participated, have according to SASU delegate Neil Joint forces Seiden. issue Other measures taken to fight The decision to the joint last budget cuts include mailing letters resolution -/>yias reached following talks to parents of every University Wednesday between Student Association (SA) student, urging them to write President Michele Smith and local letters to legislators expressing President Constantine concern over the cuts.

STOP IN OR CALL FOR PRICE LIST �Norton candy counter workers face possible lie detector tests by Sparky Alzamora Campus Editor Any student working for the Norton Hall Lobby Counter may be requested by Norton Hall Operations to submit to a polygraph, or lie detector test, if he is suspected of stealing counter merchandise. Because of the high turnover of student help, it is nearly impossible to pinpoint the blame on any worker if discrepancies arise in the accounting reports, claimed Albert Ermanovics, Assistant Director of Norton Operations. is a “Shoplifting and pilferage wide-open phenomena,” said Mr. Ermanovics, who explained that the polygraphs is a “control to deter people from shoplifting.” The polygraph test, administered by Campus Security, is used to determine whether a suspect’s testimony is valid or if an actual theft has occurred. According to Mr. Ermanovics, students were first asked to take the test a couple of years ago. He admitted that these petty crimes are committed with “no malicious intent.” Candy and cigarettes have been found to be the most accessible item for shoplifters, and the total loss of goods is quite considerable, Mr. Ermanovics maintained. Part of the problem has been the fast rate of employee turnover behind the counter, Mr. Ermanovics explained stressing that a full-time staff of two or three workers would help the situation. While Mr. Ermanovics said it would be “far more preferable to employ full-time staff,” he stressed that work behind the counter is “student-oriented which recognizes the need for student employment.” “Because of the size of the staff [20 to 30 presently employed] we do not intend to relinquish controls,” he declared. If a worker is accused of shoplifting items from the counter, he must first speak to Mr. Ermanovics about the incident. If his alibi is adequate, he will most likely retain his position on the staff. However, should the employee refuse to answer questions about a suspected theft, or if the testimony conflicts with other witnesses, he may then be required to take the polygraph test. Submission to the polygraph test is a “voluntary process,” according to Paul Orcy, a Campus Security investigator. He said the test cannot be conducted “with a reluctant subject.” After signing the waiver voluntarily, Mr. Orcy and the employee then go over questions relating to the alleged crime before the actual test is conducted. All the questions deal with the alleged theft; none deal with personal matters, such as drugs and sex. The polygraph machine is sensitive enough to pick up various emotions, Mr. Orcy explained, and can differentiate between reactions caused by deception, anger, fright and sudden moves. Mr. Orcy then reports the evaluations fo the test to Mr. Ermanovics, and Norton Operations deals with the results accordingly. If the worker still asserts his innocence after a negative evaluation, the case is reviewed before Norton Operations in a special post-examination trial. The question of guilt or innocence is then decided by Norton Operations. Study questions site selection for new campus by Don Enenmann Contributing Editor tended to stagnate and flood during heavy rains. “There are no exceptional vistas no commercial facilities within convenient walking distance . . little housing available for students (at Amherst),” the report ... The selection of Amherst as the site for the new campus was made despite widespread support for a location near the waterfront in downtown Buffalo. Mallory Perlbinder and Lani Coelho, both members of the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG), studied the factors behind the decision and concluded that a waterfront site in downtown Buffalo offered far more advantages than the Amherst location. The site selection procedure, which was long and involved, began in 1962 when the University first decided to expand. Amherst was selected in 1967.

Objections to the downtown location were its relatively small size and the fear it would make faculty recruiting difficult and start a “mass faculty exodus” because people would not want to live and work in the downtown area. Despite wide spread support for a waterfront site from many Buffalo and cultural businesses, education organizations that culminated in former Buffalo Mayor Frank Sqdita declaring restudy, some observers felt jt was simply an attempt to quash opposition to the Amherst site, especially since all during the examination period, work continued on clearing the Amherst land. Anthony Ralston, Chairman of the Department and Computer Science said. Statements by Henry Harper, Chairman of the Buffalo City Planning Board and Robert Coles, a Buffalo architect, attracted a great deal of support for expanding the University at the waterfront sitg._ A committee for an Urban University was formed which called the Amherst site a “retreat to the suburbs” and pointed out that , a downtown site would permit December 17, 1966 as “Biiild UB on the Buffalo Lakefront Day,” Dr. Gross recommended in February 1967 that the University obtain the Amherst land. interaction between the city and the University that “might provide stimulation for the solution of many bewildering problems of the urban setting by minds of talent* imagination and intellectual curiosity.” He cited the small size of the waterfront thought it would be counter-productive to area, which was 427 acres compared to 1,500 in Amherst, the high cost of acquiring property downtown, and the closeness of Amherst to the Main Street Campus as reasons for the decision. build at the waterfront.” Charles Ebert, Dean of the Division of Undergraduate Education, said recently that he warned the University early in the 1960’s that Amherst was susceptible to heavy floods and that drastic precautions would have to be taken to prevent a major disaster. “When a site that is so obviously detrimental is still chosen the reasons must proponent of the Amherst site, said he had favored Amherst because it would be easier to attract faculty and students. “We were quite sympathetic to the view of the people who wanted to revitalize downtown Buffalo by building the University there, but given that SUNY at Buffalo was, at least at that time, to be of national prominence and importance we ' Cheektowaga. No public input According to the NYPIRG study, the final decision was based on a study by Vincent Moore, a planning consultant for the State Division of the Budget, who made an extensive investigation of the five areas. Mr. Moore’s report was responsible for the Trustees’ decision, with little public input or discussion, Ms. Perlbinder and Coelho contend. The Moore report was released in 1966, shortly before former University President Martin Meyerson arrived here. Many observers felt the report favored the downtown waterfront site even though it made no direct recommendation. It pointed to the downtown area’s high accessibility and natural beauty, stating that “the dramatic vistas of the Buffalo Harbor, Lake Erie and the Canadian shore will afford a dramatic setting for the University.” The report also mentioned that a downtown campus would be close to the city’s cultural facilities, such as the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, the Zoological Gardens, the museums and libraries. It also noted that the downtown site could provide off-campus housing and more student jobs. Good but not great The Moore report described Amherst’s advantages, such as the immediate availability of land, but also pointed out several disadvantages. “Accessibility is good but not great,” the report said, adding that Ellicott Creek, which runs through the campus, was polluted and Too small Faced with pressure from prominent citizens and area legislators, former Governor Nelson Rockefeller appointed Mason Gross, President of Rutgers University, and Robert Heller Associates to restudy the site in August 1966. Dr. Gross held a number of meetings and public hearings that received a great Quash opposition Responding to arguments that the downtown campus was necessary to revitalize the city. Dr. Gross said that while the city has serious needs, “they do not constitute a valid reason for changing the site plans.” Even though a great deal of money and time went into Governor Rockefeller’s be political,” he explained. However, President Robert Kctter denied that the decision was political, saying that its size and location near Erie and Niagara Counties were among the chief factors that influenced the decision.

Do the world’s great religions have their true source in such interplanetary visits, ages ago? Is our total system 'of archeological thought incomplete, incorrect and based on falacies?

And our laser guns would seem like instruments with which we shoot balls of lightening. “It would appear to these people that the skies had opened up,” he maintained, “and powerful gods walked among them. Seen through the eyes of primitive man, foreign cosmonauts couldn’t appear otherwise than divine.” “Here,” he said, “we have the beginning of a in Clark Hall. A small being in a red cape and helmet with lengthy antenae shuffled through the audience and approached Mr. Von Daniken at the podium. “I bring you greetings from outer space,” he said. His greetings earned him an escort from the building by Campus Security. “1 am glad to see there is still good humor in the University,” Mr. Von Daniken remarked. He then examined the biblical story of Ezekiel and the prophet’s vision ofhis ascension into heaven great religion.” New theories With the aid of color slides, Mr. Von Daniken examined a number of primitive artifacts, and contrasted his theory against the accepted L 1 archeological explanations. He emphasized his personal belief in a “true God,” but asserted that his God is not described in the Old Testament, appearing to man in signs, particularly fire, trembling, lightening and loud SUPER LOW PRICES noises. “An all-powerful, all-knowing God would know that these things would appear to us in the future as visits from outer space, and not as miracles. Why then, would he have done them?” “1 don’t believe the ‘true God’ needs miracles to get around, nor does he need to stand back and wait to see what men do, or what the results of his actions are, as he does in the Old Testament,” Mr. Von Daniken noted. He claims his theory is more credible than the accepted archeological explanations. Referring to the smooth, uniform stones in a cave in Peru, he joked that if the accepted notion that lime-wash had formed the structure was true, then his name is “Donald Duck.” Regarding a relief carving in a tomb on the Yukatan peninsula, which appears to be a man, seated in the driver’s seat of some sort of vehicle, Mr. Von Daniken observed. “That’s a pretty LIE Announcing AUGUST 21, 1975 FALL SEMESTER Fall-time 3-year toy program Part-time toy aed evening programs . • • . .

He also reviewed slides, from many countries, primitive drawings of beings weaving different helmets with rays emanating from them. Noting the remarkable similarity, he said, “If they were all close together geographically, they wouldn’t be so remarkable.” Extra-terrestrial visitors could have predicted how we would react to this evidence, he said. “The children of the space age” should accept the evidence available to us. “Of course, what I suggest is purely speculation,” Mr. Von Daniken cautioned. “But I have placed very small pieces in my jigsaw puzzle. All accepted scientific truths were, at one time, showing speculation.” Masked man maces students Three University students were attacked with chemical “Mace” sprayed by a ski-masked man as they sat in Norton Center Lounge tables Thursday at around 2 p.m. According to Chris Clarke, one of the victims, the man came up to the Attica Support table, reportedly said, “Fuck Attica,” and squirted Mr. Qarke with mace. He stepped over to a table campaigning against world starvation, said, “Fuck starvation,” and squirted Denise Caruth and John Prieur. The latter two, since they had seen the incident at the Attica table, were able to partially avoid being maced. Mr. Prieur, according to witnesses, ran into the hall screaming, “Get Security,” and then chased the assailant as far as Main Street. The man three magnificent works by Carlos Castaneda A disappeared down Capen Boulevard. Attica Support group members declined comment on whether the assault was politically motivated or merely the act of crazed individuals. Mace, a chemical banned from warfare under several international treaties, is a combination of tear gas and a highly effective penetrating agent, h is used domestically by some law enforcement agencies, particularly in confrontation situations, and may be purchased legally in New York by any holder of a hunting license.

But only one thing occupies their stomachs: food. Grades come once a quarter, but caf food stares up from a plate every day.* For years cafeteria food was equalled only by the weather as one of those issues everyone talked about but no one did anything about. Today, however, cafeteria managers have been faced with a growing number of student revolts as well as rising food costs and the invasion of fast food marauders. — Bored by the board “At least the boycott will save the cost of three Di-gels today,” quipped a student at the University of Connecticut at Storrs, where North Campus residents staged a one-day dining hall boycott last month to protest the “quality” of the food. Food quality has always been a rallying cry in many cafeteria protests across the country. But “quality” has meant everything from spoiled food to a lack of menu variety. For example, a spokesman for a foods committee at the University of Missouri/Columbia complained that, “One type of meat has several different names, but it all tastes the same." The leftovers are usually just popped into a freezer and used for another meal, he grumbled. The issue is not so much food quality, but student boredom, said a University of Missouri official. Students, like anyone else, tire of eating the same menu in the same dining hall three times a day, seven days a week for months on end. More serious than such general meal malaise were charges leveled by students at Ramapo State College in New Jersey against their food service, operated by Saga Foods. Most small colleges like Ramapo can’t afford to operate their own food service, so they contract the operation out to national firms' like Saga, Canteen or Servomation. At Ramapo, student staged three boycotts against Saga, the largest one occurring after Saga fired two student workers because they refused to serve stale food, according to the protestors. After more firings and more protests, a Saga facility on campus was closed down by local health officials. Finally, Saga announced that it has lost almost $40,000 in its last two years at Ramapo and wanted out of its contract with the college. The economics of feeding Stomachs aside, students at many schools have also protested rules that require them to live in dorms and take their meals on campus. For instance, with the help of the student union organizing project, students at the University of Massachusetts/ Amherst have filed suit in federal court challenging university regulations that force single students under 21 to live on campus and buy a meal ticket unless excused for medical reasons. School officials have usually argued that such regulations are financially necessary: where room and board are tied together, profits in one area can help offset losses in the other. With rising food costs, however, cafeterial managers have reported that it’s, increasingly difficult to make a profit feeding These firms can offer board ranging anywhere from $1.85 to $3.50 per student per day and usually make money on the steady percentage of students who don’t take all the meals offered.

Address “real things” and cook from The mystique of the Big Mac Mired by student complaints and rising costs, campus cafeterias have also begun to face a new threat: the arrival of fast food chains on campus. Flushed with mercenary zeal, college and University unions across the country have started leasing their space to large-volume food chains like McDonald’s, Shakey’s Pizza and Hardee’s Food Systems. As an experiment, McDonald’s opened its largest outlet on the Ohio State campus last fall and found the operation so successful that it opened another on-campus outlet at the University of Cincinnati. ( College unions at both schools, which get about a 6 percent cut from McDonald’s, have reported that sales have increased dramatically. A spokesman for McDonald’s refused to say how many more college outlets were planned, but said the firm was looking “from coast to coast.” McDonald’s chains in particular are so successful that the firm only accepts about 10 percent of the thousands of franchise entrepreneur must pay $150,000 to buy in, but he can expect to gross about $508,000 each year. need larger campuses to maintain a high volume, he noted. To try to compete, some cafeterias have devised menus similar to fast food chains, he said, but so far it hasn’t really worked. “Even if the menu is the same, there’s some kind of mystique about having a Big Mac.” “These kids grew up with McDonald’s,” agreed Clark Dehaven. “The idea of having a commercial establishment on campus is very appealing to them.” However, Mr. Dehaven saw the real debate as between those who are concerned about giving students a balanced meal and those who would just sell them profitable but n utritionallylackingjunk food. The debate is intense enough that many food service directors are watching carefully the fast food success of giving students only what they want. Plagued by complaints and inflation, lured by the profits of McDonald’s and others, they have just about been convinced that the way to a student’s stomach is through his heart. menu food Ford Foundation expert on India’s food supply, Douglas Ensminger and Thomas Lue, an expert on the use of chemicals in agriculture, will speak in Crosby 129 at 10 a.m. Monday as part of the Food Week observance at the University.

Another change has been the growing utilization of meat substitutes and other food extenders, he said, but usually these require extensive testing. “If you go real slow, they’ll (students) accept it,” said Mr. Dehaven, “but if you make a radical change, they won’t go for it.” Faced with the same economic situation, the large cafeteria chains have cust costs through buying and vertical mass that is, controlling integration production of an item from farm applications it receives each year.

Page five . �i Editorial A thorough investigation? On September 13, 1971, 29 inmates and 10 guards were killed by random police gunfire during the violent suppression of the Attica uprising. Almost four years later, the conspicuous absence of even one indictment against police and prison officials continues to astound even the most detached observer. The appointment Saturday of a special deputy attorney general to investigate charges by Malcolm H. Bell, former assistant Attica prosecutor, that Chief Prosecutor Anthony Simonetti covered up possible crimes by law enforcement officers means we may at last find out why this has happened. Mr. Bell has accused Mr. Simonetti of repeatedly refusing "to allow witnesses to be called, questions to be asked, leads to be followed and legal and logical conclusions to be utilized which will allow fair presentations" of the cases to the grand jury. These charges have already been backed up by the New York State Special Commission on Attica, which reported that the indiscriminate firing into D yard "virtually assured the death or serious injury of innocent persons." The Commission was also charply critical of Governor Nelson Rockefeller's by Clem Coiucci refusal to go to the prison before ordering the assault. Staff Note: Some people have wondered about the members of the State Commission of Correction, which was serious tone of recent columns, including this one. created after the Attica uprising to monitor prison problems, Quite simply, this departure from the usual attempts have also accused commission officials of convering up at humor results from being too busy to devote the possible crimes by prison authorities. An independent time necessary to creating something funny, and I investigation by the New York Times has uncovered a similar have been fdling in with serious reflections inspired by recent events.

As I write this, the rebellion. As the special prosecutor investigates the some dissident Assembly members, angered at certain undemocratic features in the constitution, concealment of crimes committed by police and prison are meeting in the Community Action Corps (CAC) officials, he must try to determine whether Mr. Simonetti office to discuss changes. Whether they choose to contrived charges against many of the inmates who were bring a host of amendments to the first meeting of indicted, a factor which would warrant a mass dismissal of the Student Senate in September or push for a Outside - charges. But if the investigation is to be worthwhile, the special prosecutor must be given a free hand to dissect every relevant piece of information relating to the uprising. Governor Carey has announced that the investigator will have complete independence and the authority to examine Grand Jury minutes, subpoena witnesses and documents and examine under oath any persons with relevant information. While these guarantees look good on paper, it is worth remembering that Mr. Bell sent a 160-page report to Mr. Carey on January 30, after he concluded that Attorney General Louis Lefkowiu did not intend to investigate the allegations. Mr. Carey, for his part, did not consider looking into the charges until a story appeared in The New York Times last week detailing Mr. Bell's charges. While Mr. Carey may be genuinely concerned about discovering the truth, it is up to the public to be on the lookout for a coverup of a coverup and see that an exhaustive investigation is carried out. If the special prosecutor was chosen simply to quiet people down, and the investigation proves a farce, elected officials must be pressured to demand further investigations. Logic dictates that when 39 men are executed en masse and hardly any mention is made afterwards of the executors, something is wrong.

A provision of a constitution may be, as Rich Sokolow says of Article VIII, Section 1 of the SA Constitution, “arbitrary and capricious,” it may be unwise, it may be cannot positively immoral, but it be unconstitutional. (Incidentally, it is not necessarily “arbitrary and capricious” to restrict direct popular decision making, or else all constitutions would be “arbitrary and capricious.”) The question to be answered by this suit is what the students shall use to allocate their money.

Most men laugh when the issue is raised, “Oh, they want to be called persons again.” They make Jokes because they are uncomfortable with the situation. But when, at Monday’s Attica meeting in Haas Lounge, a native American read a letter from Dacajewiah which said, "... all men were created equal...” I had to laugh too. The women’s movement is not just for women. In showing the world that we must be liberated we are showing everyone else that they, too, could use some liberating; men from the “Macho” syndrome, and native Americans from the “blanket and teepee” syndrome (to mention just a few). While it is true that women, and women alone, must take the initiative to liberate themselves, we need support from everyone because in one way or another we are all oppressed. When Gloria Steinem and Jane Lewis spoke here I thought that something positive had clicked in the minds of everyone in the audience. Obviously I was wrong.

Mr. Honestly may think he is clever fitting Patty Hearst into a Stan Getz review, but in doing so he has totally ignored the real point the music itself.

I must have told the wrong person, because at promptly 8:00 Wednesday morning I was abruptly awoken with a good morning call from Security with the old familiar adage, “Move your car immediately or you’ll get a ticket.” Let me explain. I was thrilled with my parking in the circle in front of my dorm. It was not parked in front of, in back of, or next to any verboten signs. It was strictly legit. For some reasons unexplained, Security is up to new tricks and is cording off the area (I’ve heard rumors of a new bus stop). At 8:02 1 ran down five flights of stairs (the elevator is broken) and all the way down had visions of a security cop wickedly suspending a $5 parking ticket over my windshield wipers. The sun was beautifully shining as I moved the wooden workhorse from the exit of the loop. I was having a grand time repeating every obsenity I knew. So here I am at 8:30 in the morning, wide awake, writing this letter. Hats off to the Security for keeping us secure. space.

A less drastic change, however, would lower the car’s rear axle ratio, or move the wheels more for each revolution of the engine. A Ford spokesman would not these of any discuss improvements, but admitted that the company was researching the rear axle ratio. He added that major improvements would result in increased costs, which would eventually be passed on to the consumer.

One guy could not even get in with his girlfriend as an escort. It had been reported that men would be admitted on womens’ night (Tuesday, 7-11 p.m.) if space allowed. However, Recreation Director Bill Monkarsh told The Spectrum that men will be excluded for the first two weeks because he feels men have been inhibiting the women. This is the first report of men inhibiting women on the Amherst Campus all hear. Orange women Syracuse University, a traditional football and basketball power, will field five women’s teams next year (basketball, volleyball, tennis, field hockey and swimming and diving). This will be the first time in its 150-year history that Syracuse has a women’s athletic program. The move is probably a result of Title IX, since it is well known that Syracuse’s fiscal difficulties have forced them to drop two male teams (baseball and track) two years ago. Syracuse must fund the team if it is to maintain its federal grants. The orange women are likely opponents of Buffalo’s female teams. The Bulls’ experience should be a marked-advantage, a contrast to men’s sports where Syracuse is generally superior. The “weaker sex” showed some muscle last Friday night as the State University at Buffalo’s Monica Winkel rode Top Scotty to a 1-1/2 length victory in the first elimination race of the Intercollegiate Harness Racing Driver Championship at Buffalo Raceway. The other female jockey in the eight horse field, Virginia Rich of Rosary Hill, finished second aboard Fiacco Joe, with Buffalo law student Robert Adelman third. Winkel pulled no tricks during the race. From her number two post position, she took the rail and the lead before reaching the first turn. Top Scotty did an extremely fast quarter of 32.4, and then just held on until the finish, winning in a surprisingly fast 2:14.4. Fiacco Joe also started fast, ducking under Top Scotty from the number five starting spot, but Rich, seemingly content with second place, didn’t move the ten-year-old gelding out side at all. Adelman, aboard Laura Ann, was the only driver who moved outside in the stretch. He went from fourth to third, but Top Scotty was too far ahead, and the move fell short. The speed of the race surprised everybody. Most of the trainers and drivers predicted that 2:17 or even more would win, especially with the temperature down in the twenties. However, they had expected that whomever took the early lead would probably go all the way. Winkel, who takes home $50 for the win, figured she had a pretty good chance to win even before the race. “The two horses 1 thought were my toughest competition were both on the outside,” she explained. When did she know she had the race won? "When I crossed the finish line,” she said,,in class Bill Hartack style. For Monica, a senior sociology major from Massapequa, Long Island, getting into the race was probably harder than winning. She was selected by The Spectrum as only an alternate, but she took it upon herself to attend the practice sessions anyway. She impressed the Buffalo Raceway officials so much that they put her in the race. almost scratched from the race on Thursday night. On Thursday afternoon, she had an accident during practice. “We sort of rammed into a guy in front,” she said. The eleven-year-old gelding had opened a wound foot, and trainer was all set to scratch him that his in night. But Raceway General Manager Gaston Valiquette convinced him to wait until Friday ' , Almost scratched Unknown to Monica, though. Top Scotty was Recognize this person? She's Monica Winkel and if you live on the second floor of Lehman, she might be your resident advisor. Beside her is Top Scotty, the horse she drove to victory at Buffalo Raceway last Friday night morning. When morning came, Top Scotty’s leg was adequately healed. Winkel and Rich can now sit back and watch the other elimination races as they prepare for the Niagara Frontier championship race oh May 9. Both plan to spend time at Buffalo Raceway helping out while getting in some extra practice. Mark Coloton, coordinator of the student racing program, admitted that although he was impressed with the girls’ performances, he expected the other qualifying drivers to have a better chance in the finals because the trainers will be more experienced at training new drivers. Tournaments This year Buffalo will host four tournaments, the largest number in some time. The big day will be April 26, when the Bulls will host SUNY Center Championships in tennis and track and field. The tennis tournament will begin at 10 a m. on the Rotary Tennis courts. The track meet starts three hours later at Sweet Home High School, which has an all-weather track. On May 3, the 23rd Buffalo Invitational Track Meet will be held at Sweet Home High School. It is not yet known which teams will come, but since the SUNY Colleges championship falls on the same day, many will not be able to attend. Next Saturday the Buffalo Invitational Bowling tournament will be held in Norton Lanes.

Pro teams keep winter going third season of pro ball at just 24, McAdoo was the NBA’s most valuable player this year and captured his second straight scoring championship. by Dave Hnath Contributing Editor At one time, not too long ago, the sports scene in Buffalo’s Memorial Auditorium would finish at the end of March. April was reserved for circuses and boat shows. But this April has been an extension not ohly of winter, but the winter sports season as well. The reason? A couple of young, upstart teams known as the Sabres and the Braves have made their respective league playoffs. The basketball Braves first qualified for NBA playoff honors last season, their fourth season of competition. The hockey Sabres secured a spot in the NHL playoffs for the first time one year earlier, but injuries kept them from a repeat performance last year. This year’s Sabres and Braves are among the youngest teams in professional sports, and both have established themselves as solid contenders for years to come. A common factor in their rise was shrewd young talent. Braves building The basketball Braves built around one of the top young players in the NBA-Bob McAdoo. Already in his As good as McAdoo is, however, the Braves needed more than one good man. They showed this in their playoff-opening win against the Washington Bullets last Thursday. Even though McAdoo scored 35 points, it was two other players that played the key roles in the contest. Gar Heard, a strong rebounding forward obtained last year in a trade with Chicago, scored a season high 24 points. More importantly, however, was his strong offensive rebounding and-shot blocking that allowed the Braves to control the boards against the Bullets, the league’s rebounding leaders this season. A major factor in the Braves drive to the third best record in the NBA (behind Boston and Washington) has been Randy Smith. A lightning quick guard, Randy is a product of Buffalo State College, where he single-handedly destroyed the Buffalo Bulls in track and basketball, and earned all-American honors in three sports soccer, track and basketball. Injuries to Ernie DeGregorio and forward Jim McMillan forced Smith to take up the scoring slack and assume the role of playmaker. If Randy continues to Wild pitchers ruin Bulls great hitting According to an old baseball FAIRFIELD, CONNECTICUT adage, pitching is 90 percent of the game. To Buffalo baseball coach Bill Monkarsh, this must seem like a conservative estimate. “I’ve never had a team hit this good, but we can’t win a game,” said Monltarsh, after his charges lost to Fairfield 16-9 and 8-7, last - weekend. “When you score nine runs in a game, you really should win,” added assistant coach Gary Montour. The problem is the pitching, specifically control. Over the two game set the Bulls’ fielding was fair and they outhit the Stags, but the oitchers had a very hard time finding the plate. Buffalo’s moundsmen walked 23 men, hit two and threw three wild pitches. The very first inning of Friday’s contest showed how the Stags would be able to score 16 runs on just 11 hits. Bull starter Jim Niewcyk walked the first three batters, allowing Mike Garvey’s double to score two/uns. The Bulls got three hits each from second, third and fourth batters John Mineo, Rick Wolstenholme and Bob Amico. Amico had four runs-batted-in and added three more hits in Saturday’s game. Even so, he was outdone by catcher Mike Dixon, who had a two run double Friday and belted two home runs in Saturday’s games. The Bulls must have thought they were in pretty good shape Saturday after Dixon’s second blast put them ahead by two in the ninth. But a bizarre bottom of the ninth ruined them. With two on from a walk and a single, Fairfield’s Mark Johnson hit an easy two hopper that third baseman Jim Zadora could have turned into a game ending double play. However, the ball took a wierd bounce, hit Zadora in the head and rolled into foul territory, scoring both runners. Two more hits, the second one just barely fair, scored Johnson. — French Connection leads Sabres Meanwhile the hockey Sabres have terrorized the league throughout the season. Displaying a balanced offense (8 players over 20 goals) and start-studded offense (three of the league’s top ten scorers), the Sabres set several scoring records and amassed the most road wins and most points in the league. The Sabres have an abundance of young players who can put the puck in the net. Leading the parade, of course, is the French Connection line (Perreault, Martin, Robert), but Buffalo has two other lines that can also score. The key to the Sabres jelling into a solid Stanley Cup contender has been the goaltending of young Gary Bromley. Considered a fourth-string goaltender last year, Bromley has strengthened the Sabre’s weakest spot. However, it appears that Bromley will be ignored in the Sabres playoff plans. Since general manager Punch Imlach brought Gerry Desjardins back from the WHA to give the Sabres an experienced playoff goalie. The Sabres enter the playoffs as the second ranked team, losing out only to Philadelphia. If Buffalo makes it to the finals, they will probably face either Montreal or Philadelphia. The Flyers have given the Sabres all they could handle, winning 12 of the last 13 meetings between the two clubs. A Montreal-Buffalo final would be more appealing to the Sabres. The members of the French Connection would like nothing better than to return to the scene of their junior days to capture the Stanley Cup.

NYPIRG has indicated that it intends to initiate a referendum' for that purpose if the constitution is changed. Mr. Sokolow believes, however, that the additional money for NYPIRG would be a positive by-product of the change. He explained that the new regulation, if passed, would be an additional “check” on the SA Executive branch. It could be a preventative measure against some future SA Executive committee that “has gone crazy,” he said. Ms. Smith stressed that the provision prohibiting monetary be referendums cannot unconstitutional because students voted it into existence. She also said that it falls safely under the State University Board of Trustees mandatory fee guidelines. Richard Sokolow Playing politics If NYPIRG has its way, if will open the door for different groups to hold budget referendums, which could in result part of the new constitution in a “overallocation” of the SA referendum seven weeks ago. budget, Ms. Smith predicted.

About $100,000 of that figure will be requested to fund the Law and Health Sciences Libraries, areas that were overlooked by officials in Albany when the Executive Budget was being planned. In addition, approximately $250,000 will be requested for general library expenses, a source in Albany reported Wednesday. Eldred Smith, Director of Libraries here, had expressed serious doubts that the libraries could maintain an acceptable acquisition rate with the limited funding provided for in the Executive Budget. Utility increase The remainder of the $850,000 figure is expected to include a request for additional funding to cover soaring utility rate increases. SUNY’s total request in this area will be $5 million more than the amoung already provided for in the Executive Budget, the source said. Also included may be a $250 increase in salaries for graduate assistants. SUNY’s total supplemental budget request could not be determined. The source was careful to stress that the figures, information currently available, are tentative and unofficial. The possibility of hikes in room rent or tuition is also still up in the air. No supplemental budget requests will be official until they are reviewed and approved by the SUNY Board of Trustees. Chancellor Ernest Boyer is vacationing overseas, and requests will not be reviewed until he returns. After that, the request will be submitted to Governor Carey, and then presented to the State Legislature for approval. Middle of June However, the budget is not expected to reach this stage until the end of May, at the earliest. Some observers say it could even be as late as the middle of June, in light of difficulties the legislature had in approving the Executive Budget. Discussing the oversight in the Law and Medical Library allocations, Mr. Smith said, “It’s obvious a mistake'was made somewhere along the line by someone, but I don’t think it would be the least bit profitable to try and pin the blame on anyone for it. The important thing is that all the parties involved have recognized the error, and have expressed a desire to rectify it.” Jim DeSantis, director of University Information Services, said he believes Dr. Ketter will make any supplemental budget request necessary to maintain the University’s quality of education. Retain faculty “Our first priority will be retaining our faculty,” Mr. DeSantis said, stressing that lay-offs would be the “absolute last resort” for the University. Without supplemental funds, the University will lose several faculty lines, including eight in the School of Nursing. '> It could not be learned, even tentatively, what the University’s request for funds for Amherst construction will be. Construction is considered separate from the rest of the budget, and will not be discussed for some time. At least one area legislator, G. James Fremming (D., Amherst), has recommended to Governor Carey that funding for the Amherst Campus be increased to save SUNY the expense of renting Ridge Lea campus buildings and hiring buses to run between the bam puses. The Student Association of the State University (SASU) has begun a letter-writing campaign to area representatives to support the supplemental budget requests and oppose dorm or tuition rate hikes. Student Assembly Resolution supports amnesty for the Attica defendants by Don Eisenmann Contributing Editor The Student Assembly passed a resolution Tuesday calling for amnesty for the Attica defendants. Despite calls by a few Assembly members to “get on to other business,” the resolution passed by a 28-10 vote drawing wide support from Assembly members and onlookers who crowded into Haas Lounge when it was introduced. The resolution is the second to be passed by the Assembly in as many weeks supporting the Attica defendants. The motion, in effect, supports a joint resolution by Assemblyman Arthur Eve (D., Buffalo) that will be introduced to the State Legislature on April 3 calling for amnesty for the defendants. The SA resolution, introduced by CAC director Dave Chavis, also endorses an Albany Attica demonstration, provides non-financial assistance to the UB Attica Support Group to help them inform other schools, and calls for the University’s Student Association of the State University (SASU) representatives to propose an Attica amnesty resolution at that body’s next meeting. Influence Mr. Chavis said he introduced the measure “because the new events and sentiments make it necessary.” SA support, he said, would be more influential in getting other schools to support the defendants than the endorsement of the Attica Support Group alone. The resolution prompted a long and heated debate with some members questioning the right of the SA to make political resolutions. When one student remarked that such a resolution would not —continued on paga 18— �Faculty Senate quashesplans for student voi f t by Laura Bartlett Staff Writer Spectrum The Faculty Senate Executive Committee has rejected a proposal by Student Association (SA) for increased student input into departmental faculty tenure review decisions. In a letter to Faculty-Senate Chairman George Hochfield, SA representatives had requested a meeting with the Executive Committee to discuss the possibility of placing student advisors on departmental tenure review boards. The students had also hoped to persuade the faculty to place more emphasis on student evaluations. Dr. Hochfield, on behalf of the Executive Committee, replied that such a meeting would be neither “particularly useful or fruitful.” “Sufficient guidelines and instructions have been issued to make further recommendations superfluous,” Dr. Hochfield continued. He explained that departments are already instructed to include student evaluations in faculty dossiers, and that President Robert Ketter has made it clear that all applications for promotion or tenure “must include evidence of teaching ability.” < Editor wanted Applications for the position of Editor-in-Chief of The Spectrum for the academic year 1976-76 will be accepted until April 18. The application should be in the form of a letter to the Editorial Board stating reasons for desiring the position, qualifications and previous journalistic experience. The position is open to any student enrolled at the State University at Buffalo. The editorial board will interview all candidates on Thursday eveniqg, April 24. Prospective applicants are urged to contact Larry Kraftowitz, Room 3S5 Norton to familiarize themselves with any procedural or technical questions about the position or about The Spectrum. SA budget survey is presentat meeting by Paige Miller Staff Writer Spectrum The result* of the Student Association (SA) survey to determine financial priorities were presented to the Student Assembly Tuesday. The survey was distributed with registration materials last December so that every returning student could rate six major areas of funding in order or importance. Services for Students received the highest rating, according to the results. Activities were second, followed by Service Organizations, Athletics, Small Clubs and Special Interest Groups. Only 2113 surveys Disappointment expressed of 10,000 were filled out and returned. However, seniors were out that these “The Executive Committee assumes excluded because the survey was designed to assess priorities for the demands are being met; if not, the President’s next school year. Review Board (PRB), or the President himself, George Along with the actual statistics, an interpretation was released, should return the incomplete dossiers to the written by three members of the Financial Priorities Committee, Gary English Hochfield said.

Attica follow-up New report indicates Attica case coverup The defense in the kidnap-murder trial of Shango (Bernard Stroble) filed a motion yesterday to dismiss all charges on the grounds that the Attica special prosecutor withheld relevant information from the Attica defense. Presiding State Supreme Court Justice John Mattina turned down a defense request Wednesday to subpoena Malcolm Bell, former chief assistant to the Attica special prosecutor Anthony Simonetti. Mr. Bell, who resigned earlier in the week, accused Mr. Simonetti of covering up possible crimes committed by the law enforcement officials who suppressed the September 1971 prison uprising. The inquiry into whether state troopers and correction officers committed crimes “lacks integrity” and was “aborted” and the special prosecutor “repeatedly refused to allow witnesses to be called, questions to be asked, leads to be followed and legal and logical conclusions to be utilized which will allow a fair presentation” of cases to the grand jury, Mr. Bell wrote in his letter of resignation, sent to Attorney General Louis Lefkowitz December 11. Report forwarded When it appeared that Mr. Lefkowitz did not plan on taking action on these charges, Mr. Bell forwarded a 160 page report to Governor Carey. The Governor has postponed a decision on a request by Mr. Bell’s attorney, Robert Patterson, that he commission an independent investigation of the management and affairs” of the state’s prosecution of crimes connected with the Attica rebellion. The Governor instead asked that Mr. Patterson and Mr. Lefkowitz meet without delay to discuss the matter. Mr. Bell also forwarded a copy of his report to Justice Carmen Ball, tfye supervising judge for all Attica related cases. Judge Ball said Mr. Bell’s charges had thusfar not affected the progress of cases against inmates. “1 don’t want to make any predictions for the future,” he said... William Kunstler and Ramsay Clark, attorneys for Dacajewiah (John Hill) and Charlie Joe Pemasifice, convicted Saturday of murder and attempted second degree assault respectively, have asked Justice Ball for a copy of Mr. Bell’s report. The two lawyers stated in a telegram that they were kept unaware of the report illegally during the trial. Mr. Pernasilice has since been released on $ 10,000 bail No indication Judge Ball has not yet indicated whether he will hand the report over. “The inmates killed four people and about 60 have been indicted. Law officers killed 39 and none have been indicted. Was all the shooting justified? The evidence makes it plain that it was not,” Mr. Bell said in his letter to the attorney general. “One Watergate in that decade is enough,” he added. Mr. Simonetti has steadfastly denied the charges made by Mr. Bell, calling them “entirely false and wholly irresponsible.” “The Attica investigation has been conducting investigations painstakingly and fairly under my direction,” he said. “Law, ethics, and common practice prevent me from speaking specifically about the case, but I assure the public that the two grand juries which have sat for approximately three years have considered and continue, to date, to consider every relevant and material aspect of the case as presented by me and my staff including law enforcement participation at Attica.” Oversaw most hearings Before his resignation, Mr. Bell presided over most of the grand jury hearing on possible crimes by corrections officers and state troopers. Two other prosecutors in the Attica investigation have also resigned. Although neither was critical of the chief prosecutor, one said he had the feeling that “someone didn’t want the investigation to succeed.” The special state commission on Attica, the McKay Commission was critical of law enforcement officials’ roles in quelling the Attica uprising. Police used weaponry and ammunition that “virtually assured the death or serious injury of innocent persons” during the recapture of D yard, the report said Among other things, the report cited “unnecessary shooting” on the part of some officers, a failure to prevent brutality and acts of reprisals against the inmates, contradictory statements, a lack of planning and adequate means of recording the assault, and lack of sufficient medical care for injured inmates. ormation 1 Fall registration In witheld Assemblyman Eve advocates prison reform—‘total change’ by Brian Land Spectrum Staff Writer State Assemblyman Arthur Eve (D., 141st District, Buffalo) was the keynote speaker before approximately 400 people, mostly students, at an Attica Rally Tuesday night in the Fillmore Room. The rally, called to support an April 28th demonstration in Albany for amnesty to the Attica Brothers, also included Michele Hill, Dacajewiah’s (John Hill’s) sister. Brother Ja Ja (Michael Phillips), Mother Stroble, and El Rock Moriba (John Mitchell). Mr. Eve welcomed the 160-page report by Malcolm Bell, who resigned Dec. 11 as chief assistant to Attica special prosecutor Anthony Simonetti after charging that the state’s inquiry into possible crimes by state troopers “lacks integrity” and had been “aborted” by Mr. Simonetti. Assemblyman Eve branded subsequent prosecution of inmates as “inequitable” and “unjust” due to Mr. Simonetti’s alleged misconduct and supporting evidence presented before the McKay Commission investigating the 1971 prison uprising. Legislative amnesty Mr. Eve and lawyer Haywood Burns, who is defending Shango (Bernard Stroble) on a felony murder charge, are trying to obtain copies of Mr. Bell’s report as part of a document supporting legislative amnesty for the Attica Brothers. Mr. Eve expressed hope that Governor Carey would be more willing to act upon the accusations than former Governor Rockefeller. “The only justice is amnesty,” he declared. Mr. Eve labelled the conviction last week of Dacajewiah for the murder of Prison Guard William Quinn and Charles Pemasilice on second degree assault charges “very distasteful” and “very unfair.” He also criticized Attica press coverage for its failure to publicize the humane efforts made by inmates on behalf of hostages. For example, the inmates requested medical histories of all hostages and released those whose lives would have been endangered. Additionally, Mr. Quinn was handed over to state officials for medical treatment, although he died two days later in a local hospital. Double-crossed State troopers and National Guard forces made repeated assurances following four minutes of firing that inmates would not be harmed upon surrendering to the nearest officer. But when the final decision was made, Mr. Eve claimed, even the hostages were “expendable.” Mr. Eve also referred to Martin Sostre, who was convicted last February of assaulting three correction officers at Clinton State Prison after resisting a forcible rectal search. Mr. Sostre claimed that seven officers had beaten him. Prison conditions have even led former Corrections Commissioner Russell Oswald to denounce Attica as a “monstrosity” which should be torn down along with Auburn and Clinton because of its “inhumane physical structure.” Gyms and black officers have been added to Auburn and Attica, although many black officers expressing dissatisfaction with conditions have quit or were fired. Prison reform “requires a total commitment to change,” Mr. Eve emphasized. Attica mentality “The system can always turn on us,” Mr. Eve warned, making an apparent reference to Mr. Pernasilice being a youthful offender whose parole violation was under investigation when Attica erupted. In Mr. Eve’s view, the “Attica mentality” developed from 1969 plans by state officials to bring “storm troopers” onto troubled State University campuses, and manifested itself in D yard two years later. Responding to a question from the audience about his own participation in the reform movement, Mr. Eve responded that he had put his entire career on the line in demanding Vice President Rockefeller’s impeachment. “I’ve gone through hell,” he declared, recounting his lonely stand against 150 other New York State legislators. Mr. Eve was one of the first observers called to Attica and he remained throughout the ordeal. Although he has run as an independent Democrat for election, his activism has alienated him from party leaders. Despite news accounts charging state troopers took pride in having “got me a nigger,” the black community has been largely unresponsive, Mr. Eve said. Meetings with various church and student groups have failed to arouse public support for the predominantly black and brown prison population. Old age and poverty Decrying the poverty which many retired Americans are forced to endure, Mr. Eve claimed, “we are making old people criminals” by denying adequate Social Security Insurance payments. He urged everyone to stop “shucking and jiving” and “playing games.” Michele Hill, calling for a reorganized defense eff' Er Dacajewiah der 'ed her —Santos Arthur Eve County Holding Center. Ms. Hill relayed a request from Dacajewiah and Mr. Pemasalice who has since been released on $10,000 bail to send letters and read Dacajewiah’s “Message from Within” which called the jury’s verdict “most shocking” due to seeming inconsistencies in testimony by state witnesses. Dacajewiah attacked officer Donald Melvin's identification of a light-skinned man with a crew cut, numerous blemishes and oriental eyes who allegedly struck Mr. Quinn. When this description failed to single out Dacajewiah, the state’s prosecutor, Mr. Simonetti, reportedly shouted, “this is the man you saw, stick to your story!” Ironically, the description Mr. Melvin gave fit another state witness, Robert Kopec, whom defense attorney William Kuntsler accused of murdering Mr. Quinn. John who? An indictment against Brother El Rock Moriba (John Mitchell), alleging unlawful imprisonment, kidnapping, and two counts of felonious assault, is now in Wade hearings. He characterized the Attica Brothers’ struggle as being against “conditions. We are more or less sacrificed.” because the state “will not let us bring out the true issues that we confronted.” Mama Stroble, Shango’s (Bernard Stroble’s) mother, gave the rally an electrifying conclusion, exhorting her enthusiastic young audience that “this generation will not stand for what our foreparents stood for.” Ms. Stroble, a Methodist minister from Detroit, stressed unity throughout her speech, which was continuously interrupted by applause. “We have a right to rebel; we have a right to stand up and be counted,” Ms. Stroble declared. “Attica means fight back,” she chanted, receiving a standing ovation.

Eye 'til 8:30 �Local Vietnamese pray for their loved ones back home by Jody Gerard Spectrum Staff Writer The Vietnamese Club of Buffalo gathered Monday night in the basement of Newman Hall to pray for and ponder the fate of their families in South Vietnam. The club is comprised of Vietnamese students and area residents. After a simple but moving ceremony led by Father Dominic Luong, where incense was burned in prayer for the endangered refugees and orphans, the group spoke ,with Sue Whitcomb, representing area Congressman Jack Kemp, as part of a plea for humanitarian aid to their loved ones in South Vietnam. “We are very concerned about our country, our families, and our relatives,” one student told Ms. Whitcomb. Another, whose parents lived in Nga Trang, which was captured last week, said, “I don’t know what has happened to them. 1 haven’t heard anything.” Congress hesitant Ms. Whitcomb, who is presently involved in facilitating the adoption of Vietnamese orphans by Buffalo-area foster, parents, admitted that as far as “humanitarian assistance” is concerned, Congress just “can’t make up their minds.” Ms. Whitcomb referred, as an example, to a multi-million dollar aid bill which is now stalled in Congressional committee. Another much discussed issue at the meeting was the immigration of South Vietnamese orphans. Father Luong said although that the United States government supposedly appropriated $2 million, only 1700 children have actually been brought over. Out of over 200,000 Orphans, “2000 is a drop in the bucket,” the Father complained. Ms. Whitcomb replied that part of the difficulty with emigrating orphans or refugees is the South Vietnamese emigration authorities, who are reluctant to allow these people to leave the country. She described the “baby airlift” as a “totally disorganized effort,” which would require complete cooperation between the American and Vietnamese governments for success. Cultural preservation sought One student mentioned that the airlift was not a “realistic solution” to the refugee orphan situation, emphasizing the importance of “preserving their culture” and keeping the children “separate.” In an American culture, they would “grow up like Americans,” he asserted. Ms. Whitcomb acknowledged that the children may not necessarily be happier in the United States. But she believed that “there should be a way to airlift them out” while the fighting continues, a means of “returning them to their culture” when the fighting stops. Asked whether Congressman Kemp has any specific proposals or plans concerning the call for help for Vietnam, Ms. Whicomb said, “He is very concerned about the situation. Anything he can do about the situation, he will do.” She indicated that Mr, Kemp believes -that militarization would still be the best strategy to save Vietnam. Program begun Rather than await Congressional action, the Vietnamese Club has initiated its own The Emergency Fund for program, Vietnam Refugees. Beginning the week of April 11, (Charity Week) donations of time and money will be solicited from the several college communities and shopping centers in the area. Any collected money will then be sent via the American Red Cross to the International Red Cross, and finally to the Vietnamese Red Cross, where it will be Congressman Kemp inform his colleagues of the club’s concerns. Members also told Ms. Whitcomb to ask Mr. Kemp to propose a humanitarian aid bill without riders which would stall its passage through Congress. used for food, clothing, shelter and medical supplies. The club members will also collect signatures of those who support the cause to aid their families. They intend to set up petitions and donation areas from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day through April 20th. Both Ms. Whitcomb and members of the club expressed hope that an international body like the United Nations would take an interest in the fate of the refugees and orphans in South Vietnam, who, as one student bluntly put it, “have no choice.” Anyone interested in donating either time or money to the Emergency Fund should contact; Tien at 833-5545 orGiang at 835-1725.

Tough first hundred days: continual crises the Governor. “His first two years in office may be one crisis after another, and that may hurt the by Joseph P. Esposito City Editor The first 100 days of Governor Hugh Carey’s administration has been a period of one crisis after another, according to many political observers. Humphrey T yler, managing editor of Empire State Report, a “new monthly journal of politics and government,” said that the “first 100 days of any administration will be pure hell,” because of the largely to constitutional requirement complete the budget by April 1. Mr. Tyler believes that the state budget is such a massive undertaking that no governor can get enough of handle on it to make significant changes during his first months in office. & he needs to be a national candidate in 1976.” He explained that the “Urban momentum Development Corporation (UDC) Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) crises are still not straightened out, that nothing has been done in the prisons since Attica and that the Qvil Service Employees Association (CSEA) situation could blow up.” (The CSEA recently threatened to and strike.) The Carey mass transportation program is “almost a carbon-copy of Malcolm Wilson's/’ he added. “He isn’t coming up with new ideas, and that is what he has to to be have candidate.” a Presidential Promises unkept Tough legacy Explaining that the Governor had never really been involved in government state before his gubernatorial campaign, Mr. Tyler believes Mr. Carey should not have made many of the promises he did during the campaign. As an example, he pointed to a pledge that the Brooklyn Democrat made last October to have all policy-making officials in his administration make full public Ray Herman, political reporter for the Courier-Express, said that Gov. Carey “inherited a tough legacy from the Republicans,” disclosure of their financial holdings. The promise has not yet been kept. “Compared to his promises, the first 100 days is a blowout,” the Albany journalist said, citing the crises of the Urban Development Corporation (UDC), Metropolitan the Transit Authority (MTA) and medical malpractice insurance. Mr. Tyler predicts that the future holds even more crises for that has contributed to the crisis format of his administration. “His solution to the UDC crisis, though temporary, has been his best move so far,” he continued. The journalist also Courier-Express noted that the Democratic Governor has not kept his campaign promises, retained many holdovers from the Wilson administration, and been only partially successful in cutting back on the number of state commissions and boards. Gov. Carey “is underestimating revenues in his budget, perhaps deliberately,” Mr. Herman said.

More than $146 million a year is spent by New York State on private education, education, another will be funding for people from lower economic groups,” and then funding for foreign students, Mr. DiRlippo said. Poor organization He claimed these groups are particularly vulnerable to cutbacks because they are poorly organized and least able to fight back. Financial aid for foreign students was recently cut in half by the state legislature. “It’s easiest to cut them,” Mr. Di Filippo said. “They’re here almost as our guests.” Blacks and lower income and more than SO percent of the groups are hampered by what Mr. national budget goes for military DiFilippo termed “existing purposes, he explained. “The barriers” such as the location of the new campus in the affluent money is there,” Mr. DiRlippo continued. "The question is, town of Amherst, far away from black and lower class where will it be used?” Public education, he said, has communities. Graduate students been suffering financial cutbacks are equally unable to fight the for the last five years. “One of the cuts because of academic pressure, first things to go will be graduate he explained, stressing that financial aid, many students simply could not afford to continue their education. The cutbacks are currently causing innumerable problems on campus, Mr. DiFilippo said. The number of professors has been reduced, while competition among students has increased. He believes there has been an overall “deterioration of social and cultural life” on campus. without graduate GeorgeBoger now with EOP,” Mr. DiFilippo said. “Sometimes, they give credits for free.”. Special treatment to minority students should not be given at the “expense of education,” he emphasized. Mr. DiFilippo said his administration is now working with the Student Association of the State University (SASU) to develop a new EOP plan. The new administration also The University’s Equal Opportunity Program (EOP) has plans to: been especially hard hit by Shift SASU emphasis more cutbacks. The DiFilippo towards funding problems.

Influence the National Student Lobby to work for increased funding. Ann Feldman, GSA legislative director, plans to go to Washington for this purpose. Enlist the University’s faculty and Administration in the fight for funding. Mr. DiFilippo believes the cutbacks hurt both professors and administrators, but the latter “tend to follow the line of the state legislature. They’re more concerned with who to cut - > — - back, than in actually fighting cutbacks,” he explained. Mobilize organizations outside the University in support of public education. Recently, the administration has gained support from the Coalition for Public Higher Education of New York State, and on May 1, the GSA plans to bring to campus various groups from the community which support public education. GSA plans to work for tuition-free education. - Open to all Mr. DiFilippo said a public should be “open to anyone at all levels.” Eliminating tuition would help break down some of the barriers lower class people face in trying to enter public education, he added. LizaMesiah . Bert Herbert The new administration is also planning to establish a committee to study and evaluate student-faculty relationships. Mr. DiFilippo emphasized that this committee must be independent of the administration, unlike the Faculty Senate, which has “Ketter as a middle-man.” GSA would also like to see more cultural and social events on Although Mr. DiFilippo described himself as “sincerely interested” in this goal, he said that a lack of graduate student interest, coupled with procedural bureaucracy, tends to discourage development in the cultural area. “Many graduate students are either too poor or too busy for cultural events,” he said. “Besides whith, many artistic or creative people are just unwilling to get involved with the bureaucracy of Sub-Board. campus. Affirmative Action Four of the five members of Mr. DiFilippo’s administration ran for office on the same ticket. Mr. Di Filippo therefore believes his election was effectively an endorsement of his program. He described the group as “excellent people, very capable,” stressing that the presence of two blacks on the slate indicated genuine concern for “affirmative action” in the area of minority affairs.” The new Administrative Vice-President of GSA is George Boger. Mr. Boger has worked extensively with the Graduate Student Union, an organization designed to collectively bargain for graduate stipends and assistantships. Liza Mesiah, “expert on oral communications,” according to Mr. DiFilippo, is the new Vice-President for External Affairs. The new treasurer is Bert Herbert, who formerly worked for undergraduate student government, while the new Vice-President for Student Affairs is Warren Breisblatt, the only member of the administration who did not run on Mr. DiFilippo’s slate. w in paperback THE VELVETEEN RABBIT by Margery Williams 1.50 Camelot Books published by Avoi Page six The Spectrum Friday, 11 April 1975 . . �A ‘dead’Lake Erie conning alive again with strict laws by Fredda Cohen sewage systems. percent of the never treated, the local sewage treatment plants, which were built as WPA projects during the Depression, cannot handle the from municipal As much as IS mutrients are because most of Spectrum Staff Writer Until local sewage treatment facilities were upgraded in the early 1970’s, Lake Erie had been steadily deteriorating, it’s oxygen level reduced from increased current waste output. deposits of chemical fertilizer and The Buffalo Sewer Authority,uses a filtration system industrial waste.

In an interview before her election, Ms. Smith emphasized that she was running on a platform that would build respect for student government "by building student expertise." At the time, she insisted that SA's ultimate effectiveness hinged on involving large numbers of students in policy decisions. Ms. Smith now seems a lot more suspicious of students, just as her predecessors did soon after they were elected to high office. She has accused NYPIRG of wanting to change the SA constitution only because it will make it easier to obtain a three dollar increase in the mandatory fee that would go directly to NYPIRG, even though she strongly supported a similar referendum two years ago when she was director of NYPIRG (formerly WNYPIRG). NYPIRG is "playing politics [while] claiming idealism" and "sneaking through the back door" to procure additional funding, Ms. Smith has stated. Although the NYPIRG proposal, as director Rich Sokolow concedes, has certainly been motivated by political considerations, its underlying philosophy is clearly designed to involve greater numbers of students in the decision-making process. As everyone knows, the current structure for making budget requests is unfair, mainly because no one really knows what students want with their $67. Allowing referendums to be held on funding questions would be a signal to students that their opinions are welcomed by SA, and a concession by the elected officers that they are not capable of making these decisions alone. The NYPIRG resolution also contains safeguards that would prevent referendums from being abused. Currently, referendums held on non-financial matters need only a simple majority to be binding; NYPIRG has proposed that referendums be valid only if 10 percent of the eligible voters (about 1300) vote. If passed, the NYPIRG amendment would also mandate that a referendum cannot be brought to the student body unless it is first approved by either the SA President the Executive Committee, the Assembly or 10 percent of the University's undergraduates. The clause in the SA constitution prohibiting financial referendums is, as NYPIRG believes, clearly "arbitrary and capricious" and can only erect more walls between students on this campus and SA. As the issue goes before the Student Assembly and Student Judiciary next week, we hope Ms. Smith will be aware of the tendency of newly-elected officials to become elitist. The failure of past SA administrations has been due primarily to their inclination to place themselves above students instead of actively seeking their input which they always promise to do before they are elected. This year's officers still have enough time to make good on their promises to involve students; a good place to start would be abolishing the restriction against student-wide referendums on financial allocations, which would be tantamount to letting students know that their opinions are wanted. - — The Spectrum Friday, 11 April 1975 Vol. 25, No. 76 Editor-in-Chief Larry Kraftowitz - Managing Editor Managing Editor - Amy Donkin — — , . .

They just seem to lead into one another. Sunday night 1 told A1 we were up to 513. He said, “Going strong” (5)4). Then he said, “Keep up the good work” (515). “We’re on the right track,” he added, which became 522 since 1 had added a few of my own by this time. Finally he said, “Quit while you’re ahead.” (523). But in a few minutes I realized that when “it rains it pours,” (536). We owe a lot to cliches and it’s about time they get their due. One possibility is to market the list, either in printed form (we could sell it in the bookstore for 50 cents a copy), or the more contemporary method cut a record. “K-Tel presents 500 Funky cliches on three hexaphonic LPs, yours for only $4.95 and your first bom son. Order now. Supply is limited. Be the first in your neighborhood to have the whole set of 500 Funky Cliches.” Presently listing is random and if the list is to be marketed, it must be categorized in a logical sequence. For example, the 100 series might be dirty ones; the 200 series idioms and so on. There are two possible ways to categorize: structurally, which would be the larger category, and by subject. For your edification, here are some probable structural categories with some examples. It was like any other morning. The alarm went off, I cursed at it, stayed in bed for a while, got up, cleaned up, and threw in two pieces of toast that would pass for breakfast. All the usual stuff. Somewhere between the alarm and breakfast my buddy A1 had woken up and was downstairs starting the day, just like he starts every other day. “Top of the morning.” he said in an exaggerated deep voice. “You know every cloud has a silver lining. The grass is always greener on the other side of fence. Nero fiddled while Rome burned.” You see Al has this problem. He speaks entirely in cliches until his mind starts to function sometime in the middle of the afternoon. But at any time of day he can come up with a cliche answer for any question or a cliche analysis for any situation. The dialogues in his fantasies are entirely cliche.

Neil Schachter �Dancing the confusion and anguish of love by Corydon Ireland Special to The Spectrum This is a dance review. I have written dance reviews before, but I confess at the outset that I am not an acknowledged critic of dance, nor a technician of dance, nor a composer of dance, nor even a dancer of dance. I am distinguished by two qualities only: I deeply and headlessly love human bodies and the way they move; and I know what I like when I see it Case in point: what I saw last weekend in the Harriman Theater Studio and what you can see tonight and tomorrow night in the same place. It is called Dance '75 and is performed by the Zodiaque Company, an eighteen-member troupe of student dancers under the direction of Linda Swinuich. Whatever happens in the brief sparkle of this review, don't lose sight of this message: Dance '75 is worth seeing and hearing. Among other things, it may shock you into a kind of second sight about the way people move in everyday life. Good dance programs do that for you. When you step outside the magic circle of a performance and re-enter the real world, you see that world through new eyes. Dancers, after all, draw beauty and possibility out of the commonest human act after birth: moving from one place to another. well), playing "Density 21.5," an original piece of music by Edgar Varese. Cleverly inept The last dance done in the first half of the production is really a series of dances called 'That's Entertainment" which tries to evoke the unconsciously humorous and inept atmosphere of a second-rate burlesque show (something like what Fellini tried in Roma). Continuity between the individual pieces (there are four) is provided by the clever and authentic voice-over of Steve Classman, who plays a crude, bored and insensitive film director who wants to get it all on film (as cheaply as possible). To my mind, absolutely the most brave and dangerous thing anyone can attempt in a dance program is comedy. In "That's Entertainment," sometimes it works, and sometimes it does not. y If nothing else, there are a few good laughs, the kind of 50's piece, featuring the familiar Presley-style stud in a leather jacket, a bevy of doll-faced women to follow him, ‘a poignantly sightless wallflower, and (oddly, I suppose) two felt-skirted lesbians who have eyes only tor one another. "The Break," is brilliantly choreographed by Wendy Biller. It demands an abrupt change of mood. This is also one of my favorites perhaps because it's so ambitious. It is a kind of allegory of human life: birth, sexuality, love, anguished love, lonely struggle and death. Beginning in a common, undifferentiated circle, awakening figures become men and women, tentatively to begin to dance the full couple off, and then separate circle of human love: isolation, tenderness, entrapment, tedium, rebellion (here by the women), and violence. If the dance were to have stopped here, I suppose one could read it as a kind of feminist allegory of triumph over men. But it goes on to a more certain end; the fighting subsides. — - Paralyzing prose Dance '75 itself is presented in nine parts: four in the first half and five in the second. The titles of some of these pieces suffer from the paralyzing touch of the avant-garde ("Chocolate Cream Cookies in the Basement," "Explanation of the Properties of Platinum"), but I would be the last to judge the substance of something on the basis of its advertising. In fact, some of the best dance moments in the program come after total bafflement from the prose notes. Jill Spengler, a member of the Company, choreographed the first number of the show, obliquely titled "Chocolate Cream Cookies in the Basement." It is the perfect opening piece for a program which deals more often than not with the confusions and anguish of romantic love, though there is a decidedly modern touch in this case: Wendy Braitman, a dancer of fine range and ability who distinguishes herself in two later pieces as well, or a woman. cannot finally decide to love a man Her choice seems easy enough in the beginning, when Francis Maraschiello leaps manfully into her quiet life and induces her into a playful mood. But the symmetry of love is destroyed with the entrance of the second woman, a powerful and compelling vamp played by Ellen Jacobson, who is one of the most talented and intriguing women in the entire program. The piece ends, unresolved, at the height of tension; the first woman is caught between two destructively attractive sexual worlds. The complexity of this little story is nicely rendered by the live accompaniment of pianist Ray Leslee's own "Waves of Persuasion." — Gentle lift "Children of the Dream," the second piece, lifts the audience gently back into a simpler world. Wendy Biller, the talented centerpiece dancer, coaxes the four female figures of her dream-world in and out of sleep with the help of Claude Debussy's "Nuage." Wendy is at the center of a softened clockwork of dreams: her movement is nicely independent and controlling; that of the clockwork women is nicely complementary and dependent. Obviously, this is a sweet dream, something Alice would be likely to have as she drifted in a punt to a quiet riverside picnic with Lewis Carroll. At this point, the program forces the viewer back into a heavier theme in fact, into an "Explanation of the Properties of Platinum" (one of the densest metallic elements). This dance is in neat contraposition to the dance just before: instead of a dream in the mind of a girl, we are confronted with the severe wakefulness of a man in anguish. Choreographed and performed by Robert Coe, a graduate student in the Department of English, "Explanation" is the only solo male dance of the evening and a powerful and impressive one at that. Coe is accompanied by flutist Jay Hersher (who is a dancer as — - dream-heavy tone of the preceding numbers is dispelled in time for intermission and, most important, everyone in the audience with both eyes open begins to see the impressive range and talent of Ellen Jacobson (who is transformed into a gum-snapping whore from her former role as an elemental lesbian vamp) and Robert Coe, who plays a convincingly crude and stupid. Alley-Oop almost immediately, after his serious male solo. - Opposite numbers To look ahead: another one of the "bedroom girls," Lome Indyke, who plays the part of the stone-faced whore perfectly, figures in the first piece after the intermission this time as a lovely and graceful woman. Like Coe and Jacobson and Braitman and Wagner, her depth and range is out of the ordinary. I think there are two pieces in Dance 75 which are clear representations of a kind of feminine state of mind: "Children of the Dream" from the first half, and 'Three Sources," which is the first dance in the second half of the program. Three women Lorrie Indyke, Wendy Biller and perform to J.S. Bach's "Symphonia Astrid Dahlman Partitia No. 2." They manage to capture the range of that music and at the same time therange of mood in a girl just about to become a woman: first slow and dreamy, then lively and playful, then riotously lively. As it turns out, this is a fine transition piece for anyone in the audience who may have lost track because of the vagaries of 'That's Entertainment" or because of the sudden artifice of the intermission itself. The very pext piece is a favorite: 'To Each His Own," a dance choreographed by Eileen Thomer. The familiar strains of "I Only Have Eyes For You" are rendered very nicely on the flute by dancer Jay Hersher. 'To Each" is a — — — there are overtones of reconciliation, but the figures part and begin to struggle individually. They grow old and apart, and become, it seems, sexually amorphous again. Their struggles get fainter and fainter until, terrified and powerless, all six file off into darkness and death sexually undifferentiated once again, but without the comfort of a circle. They are mere flesh in the end, alike in death. All this is rather poorly said, but this piece is powerful and inclusive and complex. — Sexual extremities "The Break" represents another sexual extremity as well it might, since it is a take-off on David Bowie. (The music for this segment is Bowie's "Sweet Thing.") Steve Saporta, who choreographed the piece, plays the Bowie figure with just the right touch of Satanism and decadence. He is the purple-lipped, sitver-jocked extremity of his sex who is pitted against the extremity of the other sex: two lesbian whores, portrayed expertly by Pam Goldstein and Eileen Thorner. (He loses, by the way.) Expectedly, the technical and musical highlight of Dance '75 comes last; Linda Swinuich's expert and brilliant interpretation of percussionist Donald Knaack's "Reflections." Dressed in a black leotard with random twists of silver on it, Linda compels the audience to see her as some anguished, struggling, elemental sexual presence. The wild drama of the last few moments, when Linda seems helplessly battered on the head of a huge and invisible drum, sums up the thematic undercurrent of the entire production, at least in my imagination; we humans are trapped and tormented by random and powerful sexual — energies. Dance! �Herb Aach * 55 Reflecting eternity through core, circle by Janice Simon Spectrum Art Critic Space and time have no limit, existence continues indefinitely, motion replicates itself, forming endless cycles the world of infinity. It's a world which seems to hold a special fascination for temporal man; yet the concept is so incredible and contrary to man's world that it evades his comprehension. However, this does not mean that it won't continue to gnaw away at man's mind, nor cease to be a theme reflected in his art. Artist Herb Aach's work is ah example of this fascination with the world of infinity and his gouaches now on exhibit at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery until April 27 explore its domain. Titled Split Infinity Series, they present the viewer with a sense of eternity, infinite extension into space and a pervading unity which seems to be the very core of the cosmos. And it is in the circle that Aach encounters these endless cycles of the infinite. For the form of a circle has these concepts of unity and cyclical motion inherent within it, and is an appropriate element to employ in this series. Another concpet which it suggests and which Aach's gouaches express is that of a central core, a starting point of motion and growth. By beginning with a small circle and having increasingly larger circles radiate from it, much like the ripples a pebble thrown into water forms, a sense of expansion is created. — 'GodspeU' Loosely textured happiness filled only with empty fluff Circle game The addition of a curvilinear axis reinstates this sense of expansion and rhythmic growth, especially since it rotates throughout the series of gouaches, creating changes presenting any sort of Christian attitude? Mary by Bill Maraschiello in the size of the arcs from Poppins' spoonful-of-sugar dictum does make a deal one work to the next. By the Spectrum Arts Critic end of the series a whole cycle of sense, but not when taken to the extremes that it has occurred before the How much is fun worth to you?

GodspeU does trying to disguise. I have to believe that the motive commercialization. The a sense of continuous motion provide fun great slopping quantities of fun but was a much simpler one through the series as a whole, little else. It stands there like cotton candy, pink, question that GodspeU most conclusively answers is: but by extending the axial and sweet and fluffy, but shrinking into practically "How can Christianity be made commercially palatable?" circular lines beyond the nothing once you've bitten into it. painted surgace, Aach suggests GodspeU seems to have been conceived Composer Stephen Schwartz has done so by that the motion continues primarily in terms of fun.

Between sermons, they caper GodspeU is a carefully calculated machine designed in its entirety. Color is the other element through the audience, tossing off one-liners, passing to steamroller into popularity.

I felt sorry for Oregon. The first act was a tough one to follow. It consisted of Robbie (of UUAB) informing everyone that both Attica defendants were found guilty. I tried to put myself in Oregon's place what would I do if I had to go and play for an audience now? It wouldn't have been a pleasant experience to listen to. Oregon was a natural band with a sense of collectivity. Traditional contemporary music (jazzrock funky atonal mellow and avant garde) delicacy was their specialty. basically Unusual instrumentation made them unique Englist horn, tables, string bass and acoustic guitar (12-string too), they switched freely, adding to the newness, but the music was intellectually typical of that segment of music which is usually played with electric guitar, electric bass, drums, saxophone (soprano) and electric piano. Putting that music on very different instruments made for a very different sound. Light, clear and non-electric, the instruments were naturally balanced, and an air of family made it like a drawing room concert, loose and free interaction. The effect was like a desperately needed sedative, as Attica kept appearing — The guitar player thinks he's Elvis Presley, comes on sexually to the audience. Gato is not like a human playing sax, bass and guitar are in love on this ballad and communicate behind Gato's back (it's against regulations). They like each other but seem indifferent to him.

Meanwhile the bass player is absolutely outrageous, telling everyone off and jumping in and out of the status quo. Gato pretends to talk to the audience but he's secretly giving cues to the band to start the next song. The guitar was playing too loud and he broke a dumbeg over his head. Soon it's super intense: cooking, swinging, crashing, smashing and some people can't take it and leave. RAWNESS!! FINALLY!! He screams into the mike, master of the rhythms. Handclapping, people in the everyone is involved! And audience clap along creatively — it sounds great. Valentino of the pampas if But his band makes him unnecessary somehow only they were free.

Howard Johnson was the bass player, I swear! Whew! It's hard to believe we made it! Lemme just lay back a minute. Try to put it together. Despite all the criticisms and low blows, the concert was absolutely positively incredible. I haven't had a rush like that in years. And despite the incredible rush of the concert, the reality of the Attica trials comes crashing back like a sledgehammer in the stomach. And despite the crashing, The Spectrum continues to advertise for the army and navy. Where's the cutoff point? When does it become too much? How deep does the thrust have to go? And who feels the need to stop it?

Degni Spectrum Art Critic — Wooden shoes Golden Earring: too loud and theatrical The cold, blistering weather did not stop the faithful fans from coming to see their fave group on Thursday, April 3. The return of Golden Earring was just too much to pass up, as the crowd r apprehensively entered Kleinhans for the evening's extravaganza. It's been over half a year since G.E. last performed in Buffalo: The rock-"psychedelic" band from Holland had then been riding the waves of success which their AM single, "Radar Love" had brought them. This time around the group's novelty had worn off somewhat putting them in the same situation with other big name groups. Golden Earring's show has always been professional and confident. Their repertoire consisted of earthy, appealing rock and roll, on the light side of heavy metal. However this tour brought about a number of changes. No longer were they a fast-rising group, fighting the world for a break to play their music. The energy band had hit it big and it showed. Slide in With a full production of mammoth lights and quad system. Golden Earring began their set by sliding in during the climax of "Intro/Plus Minus Absurdio." Somehow this all reminded me of a Warhol flick. Here was Barry Hay, vocalist, in a flashy black satin outfit (nee Brian Ferry), George Kooymans in atypical George Harrison white suite, Rinus Gerritsen wearing regular grub, while their new keyboard player was romping around in shorts and sweat socks. Anyway, Barry Hay immediately went into a new number they just wrote called "She Flies On Strange Wings," a nice melodramatic song which gave him time to do his thing on his glitter sax. Requests from the crowd were soon granted as the band began playing material from the Moontan LP. Their first number was entitled "Big Tree, Blue Sea" which gave Barry ample opportunity for a flute solo, Ian Anderson style. Cesar Zuiderwyk kept a steady pulse on drums, while Rinus Gerritsen on bass complemented the piercing axe stabs of George Kooymans' lead guitar. (I guess The Who eventually rubs off on everyone.) Rinus had some trouble with his bass throughout the set, but he certainly made up for it when they finally were all at full strength. The whole bit After playing a couple more cuts from the new Switch LP, they went into a very electronic rendition of "Vanilla Queen," with strobe lights and the whole bit. And of course they played "Radar Love" to the jubilant masses, with the lead singer gyrating across stage like a berserk disco-dancer. The song ended with a smoke bomb explosion as drummer Cesar Zuiderwijk catapulted himself high above his drum set and landed center stage, tumbling and smiling. The crowd wasup and roaring. They loved every minute of it. I thought it sucked. Golden Earring finally got to show what they were made of very loud, very electronic and rather theatrical. But the crowd loved it and -Sue Wos I'm sure this isn't the last we've heard from them. : Editor's note: Orleans, the scheduled first act for this concert, did not appear, due to, we assume, adverse weather conditions. r “> George's Special Egg Foo Yong, Cantonese Chow Main, and Many other Chinese Delights.

The way he performed the songs, most of which were on his forthcoming album, was so beautifully done that I tingled with excitement waiting for the album to be released. Well. Frampton is out, and though the songs are nice and with the aid of his voice, quite relaxing, I must admit some disappointment. My first criticism centers on the wholesale repetition of a certain type of sound. Every song on the album starts off with an acoustic or mellow sound to it, then leads into a low-key rocker, except for "Nowhere's Too Far (For My Baby)" and "(I'll Give You) Money", which are high-volume rockers, except for different chorus lines, the songs sound alike. They have similar bass patterns and drums that lay back and let him hold the spotlight. The second fault I find with this album is in the way it's been arranged and produced, by none other than Frampton himself. The album is put together and the songs are recorded so as to deliberately give a relaxed (to the point of being sloppy) sound to the album. This is quite evident on the first song, "Day's Dawning," which sounds like a weak and somewhat playful version of some other Frampton song (none in particular, they all have a somewhat similar sound). Frampton himself explains the sound of this album in the liner notes. In talking about the English castle that the album was recorded in, he said, "The basic sound of this album can only be attributed to a huge amount of stone and too much food." How's that for being relaxed? Now that I've gotten my negative reflections out of the way. 111 tell you what I did like about it. First of all, though the songs do sound similar, they are all nice and they are relaxing. With Frampton's low-key delivery, it is quite easy for one to mellow out to this album. Secondly, I see a lot of potential for "Show Me The Way" as a top ten single. Its "soulful" harmony and rocking beat neatly combine to qualify for that dqbious honor. My favorite song on this album is without a doubt a suite of two songs: "Nassau" which is an acoustic interlude that leads into "Baby, I Love Your Way." Don't ask me what kind of hold this song has on me I don't really know. Maybe it's the way Frampton's voice sincerely croons out that chorus line, "Ooh, baby, I love your way." Maybe it's song. At any rate, those little riffs of his that make this I can barely sit still waiting for this song to come on when I play the John Baldry. Good To Be Alive (CasablancaL John Baldry is a British rocker with a voice somewhere between a 50-year old David Clayton-Thomas and a smooth sounding Joe Cocker. His latest album is a mixture of 50’s rock, 70's rock and some folk songs. The album opens with the title track, "Good To Be Alive," a hard rocker in which Baldry sings about different situations that made him feel "good to be alive." The highlight of the track is the electrifying guitar solo by Sam Mitchell. The vocals are forceful and strong, which, along with the fine guitar work, make "Good To Be Alive" a good introduction to the rest of the record. A bright spot on this album is the Chas Jenkel number, "Let's Go." It's an up-tempo rocker with an almost identical melody to the great Little Richard Penniman's 1956 tune, "Rip It Up." Baldry really sings his heart out and the simply lyrics "Let's go, let's go; let's drive through the country we gotta see" that are repeated constantly during the song give it a pleasant 1950's flavor. It even has the routine mid-song horn riff that was common to 50's music. This type of song seems to be Baldry's bag, but unfortunately he refuses to stick to it and ventures into too many other types of music on this album. Baldry is totally out of place on "Rake and a Rambling Boy," a traditional folk song. It's one of those folk songs with just the singer and a banjo backing him up. This is fine if you've got the voice for it. For someone like Baldry, rock and roll is the only music where his weak voice isn't that much of a liability; he should leave the folk songs to the Arlo Guthries and Joan Baez's. At least he had Leslie Duncan singing co-vocals with him, which saves the song. Baldry took a tune written by Bo Diddley, "Let Me Pass" and recorded it the way Diddley would have wanted it recorded. The lyrics are vintage Diddley (which isn't saying much considering one of Diddley's most famous songs "I'm A Man" has practically no other lyrics but "I'm a man-m-a-n"). So on this song, although the lyrics are primitive compared to say, Joni Mitchell's, Baldry is at home with them. It opens with; "Well, I'm a honkin' my horn, won't you let me pass, I gotta hurry up cause I'm running out of gas. The police car told me to slow down, cause I'm runnin' too fast through the heart of town; I said my baby's gone, well, my baby's gone, I said my baby's gone . ." It's not the type of lyrics one would write today, but in Baldry's case, since he's good with 50's material, the lyrics . don't matter Martin Luther King was a great civil rights leader. He died almost seven years ago. All right, it was fine and thoughtful for Baldry to do a song about him. But with Baldry's voice, he's unable to effectively hammer home his message about King's wishes for brotherhood and peace for everyone. The rest of the album is mediocre. Baldry's version of Rod Stewart's "Gasoline Alley" is fine in every aspect except that his vocals don't come near Rod Stewart's. On "Maggie Bell," a soft rocker, Baldry lets everyone know how much he loves his "Maggie Bell" by continuously repeating, "I love. GOODTO BE ALIVE John Baldry love her so." The song is pleasant to listen to, but there's not much meaning to it except his great love for Maggie. On the whole, while succeeding on the 50's rockers which Baldry seems most comfortably with, the album leaves a lot to be desired. Baldry had no right stumbling through folk songs and being socially conscious on an album. If he is so concerned with, civil rights, he'd be better off speaking out rather than "waxing" his views. He's fine with his type of song; but that's where his talents begin and end. In the future, hopefully Baldry will stick to the 1950's music and forget about folksinging and whatever else we wants to experiment with.

Times HEARTS MD MINDS Hi Page fourteen The Spectrum Friday, 11 April 1975 . . IHTIICTID «> Prodigal Sun �Editor's note: This review is dedicated to Chuck Hammer. Eric Clapton, There's One In Every Ciowd (RSO) I don't know why, but it's only recently that I've begun to realize that the music I grew up with now belongs to the past. It's a new generation of rock on the scene today; post-activist, post-campus riots, post-revolutionary. (The kings are dead: long live the queens.) The toll was heavy. How many of the sixties idols and leaders died, for how many absurd reasons? Though some survived, none Escaped the consequences of wealth, fame and influence. Some, like the Stones, retained their popularity but lost their power over the mass imagination. Some, like Sonny and Cher, opted for crass commercialism. Some are so burnt out that they're as good as dead (you mean Ginger Baker is still alive?). Some, like Steven Stills, retired into the hills with their guitar collections and their cocaine. Eric Clapton lives in Jamaica now, and he takes life alot easier. He's one of the luckier ones. One of the survivors. His price? Energy. There’s One In Every Crowd, as you might guess, is, on the whole, a very mellow album. Clapton has gone through a lot of personal dues paying in recent years, kicking junk and getting his head together, and has come out on the other side of superstardom. Gone, the lightning fast, super-tasty riffs. Gone, the stack of Marshalls (or Fenders) blasting on ten. Gone, the electricity that crackled in the air. So what's left in its place? A less neurotic, wiser, older, more mature man, with music that reflects his experience. Rather than going for the personal ego trip, Eric has gone for a group sound. This was evident on 461 Ocean Boulevard, his last effort (with the same band), and the trend continues. On There’s One In Every Crowd sometimes he succeeds, sometimes he fails. Some of the songs are simply boring. "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" is a good example. As with most of the other monotonous tunes, the initial idea (in this case, imposing a reggae rhythm on a traditional gospel song) is good, but the song doesn’t go anywhere. It builds a little (more voices, more instruments), but not enough to hold our interest throughout. "The Sky Is Crying," an Elmore James-Morgan Robinson number, is the kind of tune Clapton used to use as the background for one of his many demonstrations of what playing electric blues is all about. Now, without those leads, the song sounds flat; monochromatic. yet another reggae There's even a sequel to "I Shot The Sheriff" tune about a man falsely accused of shooting a deputy ("Don't Blame Me"). Strangely enough, though this song suffers from the same lack of excitement, the melody and chord changes are enticing enough to make it listenable (it was co-written by Clapton and Terry). But the master's hand is still in their pitching. It's much more evident on side two, where all but one song is written by Clapton himself. Maybe the fact that they're his own compositions stimulated him into some sort of creative action. Whatever the reason, these songs reach out and take hold. "Pretty Blue Eyes," for instance, starts out as an airy samba, delicately woven with acoustic guitar, bass and Latin percussion (casabas, gourds), drifts into a dreamy straight-ahead 4/4 sequence with a chorus of oohs and a cathedral-sounding arrangement, and then goes back into the samba. There's some very pretty acoustic riffing, and you get the feeling that Clapton is very much at home here. "High," a song with double electric leads (reminiscent of "Keep On Growing"), has an undeniably catchy beat and melody, and the song just keeps you rolling along with it right to the end. Even "Better Make It Through Today," though slow and subtly arranged, is a good enough composition to stand up and grab us. And the vocal on this song is particularly interesting, sung with sincerity and obviously close to home: Life is what you make it That's what the people say And if / can't make it through tomorrow, / better make it through today. It seems to me that Eric Clapton, always known for and saddled by his unique talent for playing the electric guitar, is beginning to emerge as a different kind of talent: that of arranger and composer. The songs on this album written by him are just so much better, inherently, as musical and lyrical compositions, that I wonder why he bothers doing anybody else's stuff. As I said before, Clapton is one of the lucky ones. Not only has he survived, but he's still alive and kicking, albeit at a much less fiery pace. Every time .Eric goes through a change, he gets kicked in the ass for it: people say he’s over the hill, he's burnt out, he's afraid. All he's doind is continuing to experiment with his own vast musical potential; something most superstars are too scared to do. And though the Clapton of this phase will probably no more resemble the Clapton of yore than Manassas resembles Buffalo Springfield, well, it's another era -Wills Bassen now. and after all, we've all gotta keep on growing. * lOcc, The Original Soundtrack (Mercury) If the Marx Brothers, by some incredulous quirk of magical transposition, were performing within the contemporary medium of rock and roll they would undoubtedly be lOcc. You immediately quip with eyebrows arching and your right hand miming the presence of a cigar, "That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard" in the best Groucho voice you can muster. Okay disbeliever. Show me, Missouri mania. I'll unfold and parade my thesis right before those Doubting Thomas eyeballs of yours. By pairing prodigious portions of parody and pun, those puckish pranksters, lOcc, have produced their latest product. The Original Soundtrack. All alliteration aside amigos, lOcc's music has always been powered by a wry sense -of humor. They capitalize on clever word games and their wondrous knack of spoofing various musical genres. Anyone hearing "Rubber Bullets," off lOcc's first recording venture, is aware and can testify to the group's comedic stance and success. The targets of the sardonic barbs unleashed by lOcc are often pompous authority figures much akin to the Marx Brothers use of wit. The Original Soundtrack once again finds lOcc up to their old tricks, cramming the tracks with cackles, chuckles and just plain goofs. "Une Nuit A Paris" is a three part skit that lampoons everything from An American In Paris to Cole Porter's Can Can. The band even croons the lyrics with shoddy French accents. If fast and furious punning delights you, then "Life is a Minnestrone" is your cup of soup. I'm leaning on the Tower ofPisa Had an eyeful of the tower of France I'm hanging round the garden of Madison And the seat of teaming And the flush of success Relieves a constipated mind I'm like a gourmet in a skid row diner A fitting menu for a dilettante. The absurd fun and games keeps flowing throughout the entire album from the amusing anti-religiousity of "The Second Sitting For The Last Supper" to the extreme and rampant romanticism of the mandolin filled "The Film of My Love." Co-starring you And co-starring me Starring us both together The film of my love Will travel the world Forever and ever and ever A back lot romance A scripted affair The screenplay a blessing from heaven We're gone with the wind On the Orient Express to join the Magnificent Seven. There's more, but I fear I've already belabored the point 1Dec's component parts are tour very talenteo dudes who play an impressive array of instruments even dabbling with esoteric novelties the likes of violins, cellos and their own belived gizmo. Their vocals are sweet and sure, eliciting the response that they sound like the Beach Boys. That is, if you can imagine the comic incongruity of Beach Boys' vocals clowning on societal foibles rather than the juvenile pap and preoccupation with the sun and surf fetishes — of Southern California that so concerned the Beach Boys. But there are a few snags and minor problems with The Original Soundtrack. lOcc's production utilizes nifty know-how yet, at times, the music suffers from a muffled and diffuse sound leaning of so much sound tends at times to forfeit a solid focus on which to ground the music. An additional problem resides in the fact that the music seems to be in a state of transition, with lOcc not fully sure of what new musical motifs they desire to incorpoate or explore. Yet these difficulties are part and parcel of the growing pains of a top flight band. The Original Soundtrack is cerebral music. You must invest the time and produce your own film. The discriminating sould with an appetite for a band with a sense of humor and a bit of social consciousness will find lOcc as tasty a morsel as flaming brandy on a crepe suzette or perhaps more appropriately, animat crackers with duck soup. C.P. Farkas — . - Prodigal Sun Old And In The Way (Round) Nya ha, Willa. You thought this was just another no-name record, didn't you? Well, it isn't. Nya ha. (That's nyah-nyah, isn't it? -ed.) That is, not unless you consider Jerry Garcia, Vassar Clements and Sea Train's Peter Rowan no-names. And "Midnight Moonlight" has been getting a lot of air play. Which is perhaps a little odd, considering the nature of Old And In The Way (a convenient tag for album, group and concept all at once). This is country, pure and simple. It is not rock, not even "country-rock," if that term has any meaning in these days of the Allmans and the New Riders. Old... is a resumption of, as David Grisman refers to it in his liner notes, "a quest [for the! 'high lonesome sound' of Bill Monroe, Flatt and Scruggs, the Stanley Brothers and other idols [Vassar among them] .** Grisman, Garcia and Rowan were all on this quest in 1963. Ten years later, they came together with Clements and John Kahn at San Francisco's Boarding House to pick up the thread. This record is the result. Old and in the way That's what I heard them say. They used to heed the words you said. But that was yesterday Is that, in any way, the attitude of these musicians to the string band sound? Do they feel that either the older practitioners of this music (Vassar, again, among them) or the music itself is in danger of being ignored, being passed over in the wake of electronic innovation and glittering gadgetry? I don't think so. For the young players, it seems more in the nature of a renewal, a reacquaintance with the roots both of their own music and the styles that encompass it. It's significant that, of the ten tunes of the album, only two are traditional folk. Clearly an effort is being made by these people to view these roots in a functional context; to do something with this past. Superficially, Old... is similar to the Vassar Clements solo album I talked about last week. The Clements disc, however, was a studio product, an essay in riffsmanship. Here there's an audience, a very appreciative one, and the give-and-take between them and the performers puts the pressure much tower. Everyone is clearly enjoying himself, even the people shouting ''Foggy Mountain Breakdown!" and "Ray some boogie!"; it makes things that much easier for us to enjoy. A trailblazer this isn't, even if they do give us a bluegrass "Wild Horses." Most of the material is very similar in sound, even in tempo; a bit more variation would have been very nice. These people do have the capacity to bring more imagination to this music than they did, but simplicity was an important choice to be made, and if the alternative was overorchestration, I'm satisfied with the way they handled it. Best of all, everyone has enough confidence in his abilities to be free from the compulsion to constantly demonstrate them. Technically, ... Dements' fiddling is more spectacular on his solo effort, but here he's much looser, and more of a pleasure to hear. Same goes for the others, especially mandolinist Grisman, who has just enough flash to perk up the ears of any Bill Monroe fan. No, it's not a masterpiece, not a baltbuster; but it's very pleasant music, probably the same kind they'd make on your front porch. There is better country and better bluegrass around; for right now, though, this'll do fine. (Unsolicited plug: both Old And In The Way and Vassar Clements can be had at the Record Co-Op downstairs.) —Bill Maraschiello Friday, 11 April.1975 The Spectrum Page fifteen . . �Making your mark in business used to mean carving a comfortable niche for yourself and staying there. Promotion was simply a matter of time, provided you could spend 20 years in the process. But, today, business depends on technology. Technology that can’t wait a momertt if it’s going to keep pace with what’s happening. That’s why, at Kodak, our basic reliance on sci- entific research makes the need for creative young minds more demanding than ever. We must have people with drive and ambition, impatient to put what they’ve learned into practice. People who get all the freedom and responsibility they can handle, and tackle our problems with their ideas. Which, we’re happy to say, has helped many of our scientists yield important discoveries.

I wish to point out that in The Spectrum’s coverage of last Monday’s SA meeting, it neglected to give credit to the actual authors of the Attica resolution, the UB Attica Support Group. While many of us have in theory supported the struggle of the Attica brothers, these people have, since last year, consistently been fighting, educating and organizing campus Attica activity. It was their efforts which called for and organized Monday’s presentation and resolution calling for a peaceful non-violent demonstration and also the appearance on campus last week of William Kunstler. They finally received such verbal recognition in Amy Dunkin’s article in The Extra on April 3. However, I find such post-hoc praise to be disturbing. Was it necessary for me or Michele Smith or another member of a “recognized” student group to speak for them before The Spectrum reported their efforts? Perhaps it would not be necessary for The Spectrum to joke about the “pseudo-activism” of such groups as NYP1RG or CAC if it would more consistently cover the efforts of “true” activists. The successful passage of the resolution and ensuing demonstration was not directly due to my reading of it, but because of the collective efforts of many people and especially the UB Attica Support Group. In your selection of pictorial coverage of last Monday’s meeting, I wish that it was them and not me that you had put on'the front cover. Gloria Pruzan Tasteless, humor — In studying U.S. foreign policy, one is amazed by the skillful and ruthless ways Americans have used to get out of their commitments, whether legal or moral. After 1945, when the American public was growing tired of helping Chiang Kai-Shek, excuses were quickly found to disengage the U.S. of its promises: The Chiang government was corrupted, its soldiers unwilling to fight... The same thing is happening in South Vietnam. It’s time Americans woke up and admitted that the past and possibly future Communist takeover in China and South Vietnam had and would come as results of thenown attitudes. The political and economic setbacks in .South Vietnam are the inevitable remember, it is consequences of a long war fought on South Vietnamese soil. In the U.S., where economic progress seems at its peak, some elderly people are eating canned dog food! Not a single government can claim it has no political opposition. South Vietnam, which has been unstable because of this 30-year-old war, naturally faces a more serious problem. Has any attempt been made to go behind those closed doors of China and North Vietnam to count the number of their political prisoners? A U.S. Congressman quotes a South Vietnamese as saying, “We don’t like you Americans anymore,” and bitterly remarked how little gratitude is returned for “all we’ve done.” Well, gentlemen, these are the things you have done: You have exploited the anti-Communist sentiment among the South Vietnamese during the post-Geneva period (which would probably have been settled by a negotiated agreement) to make the Vietnamese fight against one another. As a result of this fighting, Vietnam, North and South, remains a backward country, its people poor and illiterate, making it even more vulnerable to foreign influence in the present as in the future. — — To the Editor. Journalism has reached a new low. I refer to the April Fool’s Day article about the assassination of John F. Kennedy. I’ve never had a beef about the actions of The Spectrum before, but this incident truely appalls me, as I’m sure it does many others. On November 22, 1963, the most tragic, repercussive killing, perhaps ever in the history of Man, took place. The President of the United States was savagely murdered and afterward, two more human beings died. From the evidence now surfacing, there is reason to believe all this was perpetrated by elements of our own government, namely the C.I.A. This, gentlemen, hardly calls for humor. On the contrary, it is a very grave matter indeed. Our nation is still licking its wounds as it tries to climb out of an abyss of mystery and doubt about the slaughter of its 3Sth President. That column space could have been constructively used to inform readers about new theories pertaining to the assassination. Instead, we got this worthless filth. Did the writer know that new evidence is now surfacing attesting to the innocence of Lee Harvey Oswald? I doubt it. It appears this person was too wrapped up in his morbid, repulsive humor to consider such matters. To be sure, the only April Fool I found in this article was the guy who wrote it; or maybe the editor who let it pass. Let’s hope The Spectrum has more taste and class in future editions. Tom Ban Stealing from Woody Allen To the Editor. An assumption inherent to the freedom of expression given American newspapers today is that such expression will at least be original in content. Plagiarism is one of the most severe crimes which can be committed within the intellectual sphere. Such a crime occurred in the April 2 issue of The Spectrum. In an article entitled “Talk and dead bird mar baseball game,” the author, Dave Anybody?, plagiarizes the “versatile humorist” Woody Allen. At the end of the article the- author states that the reason why the coach was thrown out of the game was because he told the umpire to “go forth and multiply, though not in so many words.” This is a clear adulteration of the Woody Allen joke which goes, “I told him to be fruitful and multiply, but not in those words.” Dave Anybody should not compensate for his own lack of humor by stealing a joke from Mr. Allen. We suggest that an apology by The Spectrum and the real author is in order. We further hope that such malfeasance and evident lack of integrity never again occurs. Louis Masur Mark Rich man Gossage, Vardebedian, Lars and Metterling — Out After you have succeeded in creating a strong anti-Communist feeling among the South Vietnamese, making them less tolerant and more suspicious of the very thought of negotiating with the North Vietnamese, you suddenly became tired of the whole thing. Your “let’s-get-it over-with” attitude, starting from 1968, has proven helpful in speeding up the North Vietnamese invasion, not only in the South, but in foreign countries as well (Laos, Cambodia). When President Thieu’s untrickiness in politics made it impossible for him to understand why he should negotiate with the Viet-Cong which was not even a legitimate party, let alone a government, you made him out to be a villain. Since 1968, he has been the main obstacle to “peace” talks. On the other hand, the North Vietnamese (the “bad guys”) suddenly turned — into heroic figures who “built before American bombers came, rebuilt after they left.” It now becomes clear that when a small, backward country receives and depends on foreign aid from the U.S., its fate depends on the will and moods of its ally: its ideology becomes a dispensable commodity; surely American interests are not. The South Vietnamese people have been lured to fight the North Vietnamese Communists for 30 years now, and during the past couple of years, they have had to defend themselves against their anti-Communist ally as well. Now the problem facing the South Vietnamese grows in intensity. They don’t know whether to go on fighting a desperate war against the North Vietnamese, or whether to stop, thus rendering all the blood, tears, sweat and mourning of their people during the past 30 years meaningless and unnecessary. Whatever agreement is reached, the North and South Vietnamese should not and will not forget what the U.S. has done to them. Now do you still wonder why the South Vietnamese, the Americans have practically become enemies? — — of the grave To the Editor. Recently, the Ellicott Complex has been awarded recognition for architectural excellence. As a resident of the fab Amherst Campus, I feel that this award was about as justified as Adolf Hitler getting the man of the year award from “Commentary Magazine.” I mean, well just look at that mess of strangely proportional nipple colored brick that must have been designed by an architect experimenting with LSD. As anyone who has been within it’s boundaries knows that the only thing that can find its way around in the mass of ever twisting, maze-like corridors is people like the anti-semitic Thank you graffiti scrawlers.

I bet you change your mind. I did! (And I’m glad I did.) - Frank L. Wright P.S. I rolled over in my place when I heard about the award. Preposterous! from Lon Nol To the Editor. In response to Mr. Homik’s letter of March 26, a few points are omitted from his description of the Cambodian situation. Before we go ahead and spend money, we must look at all the facts. Firstly, if we look back into the recent past, we can’t help but put the fault on the U.S. for the war to begin with. Nixon, with his henchmen in the CIA, succeeded in overthrowing the neutralist regime of Sihanouk and replaced him with a puppet, Lon Nol. The U.S. further aggravated the situation by invading Cambodia in April 1970. The Khmer Rouge viewed this invasion as imperialistic and have set themselves and their country of the U.S. and it’s puppet leader. Secondly, we do not view the South Vietnamese and Cambodians as mindless, sub-human peasants, but as courageous human beings for standing up against the U.S. invaders of their lands. Had the U.S. not blocked the elections in South Vietnam and overthrown the Cambodian government, there would be no bloodshed. The domino theory is beginning to show that wherever the U.S. sticks its nose, there’ll probably be trouble and war. Also, who has the right to say that the governments of Lon Nol and Thieu have any right to govern? Neither has been elected by the people, isn’t that what Nixon and Ford were trying to defend? Thirdly, as seen in present day news reports, a lot of the food and money the U.S. is supplying is ending up in the black market. How much of the U.S. tax dollars is it necessary to waste before this is realized? How much more must we spend to support Lon Nol’s residence on the French Riviera following his defeat? Finally, if Mr. Homik still believes that the U.S. should aid the Lon Not regime and since it is only “an infinitesimal fraction of the U.S. budget,” I’m sure that he, and a few of his friends can get a collection going, and send it over there. I don’t want my tax dollars wasted any longer!!! Who knows, he might even get a personal thank you from Lon Nol. Alan Alterbaum Keep printing military ads of rhetoric. Political discussions and views should continue to be presented in this paper. I would like to caution the Editor, however, to regulate the quantity of such discussions, which could easily exceed a point of saturation. I was irritated by the previous two letters in their constant use of the word “demand,” a practice full To the Editor: I would like to congratulate The Spectrum for continuing the military advertisements. For a large segment of this nation’s poor, the army is a valuable instrument in their climb from unskilled to skilled labor. The army also provides for higher education which is too costly for many. The Spectrum is here to serve the university community, not to become a mouthpiece for the Revolutionary Student Brigade (RSB). For a newspaper to remain viable, it must contain a multitude of viewpoints. Very few people would read The Spectrir.t if it became narrow-minded and which ends the give and take relationship between an author and the reader. The attitudes which the RSB revealed in these letters are merely manifestations of the illogical, impractical and rude behavior which they displayed at the Chile Conference. G.

Originally named the Shea Theater after Mike Shea who furnished the interior, the Lowers Buffalo movie palace cost $2 million to build in 1926. To build anything like this today if it were at all possible would cost at least $50 million, according to L. Curt Mangel III, movie palace organ enthusiast and chief engineer of the Loews Buffalo. The building stands at 646 Main Street as a reminder of the days when movie theaters were as interesting as the movies themselves. Although it is more often dark in the Loews than not, the decor of the interior is The Honorable State Capitol Albany, New York 12224 — — Dear Senator I am a student of the State University at Buffalo who is registered to vote in your district. I am very concerned about the recently passed State Budget in relation to the State University of New York. The new budget for the State University requires it to generate some $5 million in additional income. This means that tuition and/or room rent will probably have to be increased. This extra cost will be a burden for me as prospects for summer employment seem dim. a burden for me, as prospects for summer employment seem dim. $12,000 income. As one of the SUNY students, I cannot afford any increase in room rent or tuition. The Legislature will have a chance to add additional necessary funds to the State University Budget when the Supplemental Budget comes up for consideration. In order to insure that the educational quality remains high and the cost reamins low, please initiate and support attempts to improve the SUNY Budget Thank you Sincerely, excessively ornate. The walls, boxes and ceilings bear finely detailed reliefs with gold trimmings.

For the past two years, he and to the the has been working at restoring the organ, which had not been kept up. As a member of an American theater organ enthusiast group, his rennovation work has been part of an effort to reestablish the Loews as a theater for the performing Six live performances are' already slated for this year at the Loews, beginning with the Harlem Dance Company on May 15. Other performances expected are the Buffalo Philharmonic, dance, arts. opera and organ recitals. Pipe matrix In hidden rooms throughout the theater, there is a complex system of pipes connected to the keyboard at the foot of the stage. The keyboard, which sits on an elevator platform, has been at its lowest position for about forty years. Althoygh Mr. Mangel does not play the organ, his extensive work and interest in the instrument have atuned his ears to acute sound quality differences. The sound produced from the organ now does not yet please him. “To others, it sounds okay, but I can hear the defects,” he said. He expects it will take about a year of additional restoration work before the instrument will meet his standards. Mr. Mangel expects this organ to sound better than the organ at Radio City Music Hall. Although the organ there may be a better instrument, the accoustics have been destroyed by the air conditioning units, according to Mr. Mangel. The Loews new air conditioning unit is at least compatible with the accoustics, although the original unit used less energy to cool the air. The movies usually shown at third rate, and rarely attract a crowd of more than ten people on a cloudy afternoon. The programs planned by Mr. Mangel are expected to draw crowds as large as those at the Studio Arena Theater across the street.

Usually, about 50 people show up to play, but sometimes as many as 80 or 90 people come. Most of the club members are from India, where badminton is a major sport, but the club is trying to encourage more University students to participate. The better, more experienced players make it a point to play with the beginners at practice, said Mr. Khanna. Consolation matches are included in most tournaments to encourage beginners. Although there are an equal number of men and women in the club, the women have not fared as well as the men in tournament play. Mr. Khanna said this is because women have not had as much training as men, especially Indian men, but predicted that the situation will change as badminton becomes more popular in the U.S. Hillel Invites You To Another LOX BAGEL BRUNCH And A Discussion On "TAY-SACHS DISEASE" Sunday, April 1 3 at 12 noon ' •' we came,” and they did, winning the men’s singles and doubles and finishing second in the The first State University at Buffalo Collegiate Badminton Tournament, sponsored by the Badmintc n Club and the India Student Association, will be held tomorrow and Sunday at Clark Hall.

He has led campaigns to take unsafe cars off the road, clean up the environment, make legislators more accountable to the people and expose the dangers of nuclear energy.

The nuclear struggle pits most of the federal government, utility companies and nuclear power industry on the pro-nuclear side, against the citizen’s groups, environmentalists and a growing minority of congressmen on the anti-nuclear side. Last month, thirty members of Congress, led by Rep. Benjamin Rosenthal (D., N.Y.) appealed to the nation’s radio and television broadcasters to provide air time for critics of nuclear power in an effort to balance the promotional campaign of government and industry. “This year alone, the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) and its successor agency, the Energy Research and Development Administration (ERDA) are spending over $2.3 million on public information campaigns designed to sell nuclear power. The industry is spending several times that amount,” Rosenthal and his colleagues claimed. Pro-nuclear campaign The financial big guns are on the side of nuclear plants. The Atomic Industrial Forum (A1F), a group made up primarily of officials of electrical utilities and nuclear industry companies, was recently discovered to be covertly funding a $1 million campaign to saturate the public with material favoring nuclear power plants. “One of the most important ways in which A1F can step in to help fill the information gap is to stage manage the news as effectively as (anti-nuclear groups) . . . Reporters and editors cannot be relied on to publish a full and balanced account of nuclear power,” a memorandum outlining the pro-nuclear program stated. The memo called for nuclear energy proponents to ghost write articles which would then be released under the names of various nuclear experts in favor of nuclear power. In addition, nuclear industries have spent millions in both covert and above-board publicity campaigns. Last fall, Rep. Les Aspin (D., Wise.) discovered that a local pro-nuclear group was being secretly funded by four major Wisconsin utilities. stressed that college students have sufficient time, interest, and ability to tackle real-life problems and put their skills to work. “You’re as free now as you’ll ever be to pioneer, experiment, dare to ask the tough questions, and carve put new roles,” Career Nader Mr. continued. He cited three major assets that use a in students could broad-based community effort. they First, have access to knowledge as members of the University. Second, they are generally without job obligations, which permits them to develop educational skills while He by Amy Raff Spectrum Staff Writer Vol. 25, No. 75 battle in U.S. history.” It will be a struggle not only against an energy source whose risk of catastrophe is too great, but a search for an alternative energy source “to suit the consumer, not added Con Ed. “Solar energy epitomizes the kind of technology that challenges the vast capital waste of large corporations,” Mr. Nader asserted. Large companies are against it because the source, which is the • sun, is impossible to monopolize. This is why the United States has spent only $50 million on solar energy research while at the same time pouring $800 million into moon exploration. Less hoggish Since waste has fostered economic growth in the past, Mr. Nader reasoned that “waste is the present of object energy patterns.” He urged that we end greatest innovators and critics. this trend by abandoning the nuclear option and opening up the Toughest battle Given these assets, students can solar option, which would make structure the kind of power they the United States “less hoggish in want to wield, Mr. Nader asserted, its consumption of the energy of explaining that there are large the world, help curb inflation, and numbers of students, including a put value back into the consumer voting block of 10 million.

He predicted information about NYP1RG.

Lastly, students are young, and at the peak years of and imagination creativity, the making them potentially broad-based, toughest citizen Whistleblowing. I ... Opponents organize Despite a comparative lack of money, anti-nuclear forces have been gearing up intensifying their campaign. One of the biggest nuclear critics in Congress has been Sen. Mike Gravel (D., Ark.). At Critical Mass ’74, a national forum on the dangers of nuclear power organized last November by Ralph Nader and host of environmental and citizens’ groups, Sen. Gravel predicted there would be “some fireworks over nuclear power in the 94th Congress.” To make certain, Sen. Gravel’s office has confirmed that he will reintroduce a bill calling for a five-year moratorium on licensing and construction of nuclear while the Congressional event of accidents and to produce proof to Office of Technology Assessment conducts the state legislature. It also demands public hearings be held around the state on nuclear power and that evacuation plans be published for areas surrounding all nuclear power plants. In Oregon, a bill is pending in the state legislature which, if passed, would prohibit construction or expansion of any nuclear power facilities in that state for at least five years. Similar bills are before legislatures in Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan, Oregon, Missouri, Minnesota and Wisconsin. According to a report by Investors Responsibility Research Center, nuclear foes have the upper hand this year despite the financial power of the nuclear industry, President Ford’s plans for 200 plants by 1985 and favorable lobbying by the Federal Energy Administration. “The slowdown of growth in demand (for nuclear plants) will lessen pressures to expand development of nuclear power. It seems clear that most projected increases could be forgone,” the report concluded power plants a study of the plants and their hazards. In addition Mr. Gravel hopes to amend the Price-Anderson Act, which comes up for renewal this year, to eliminate the current ceiling imposed on financial liability in the event of nuclear accidents. Moratorium Various groups, such as the Union of Concerned Scientists, Friends of the Earth, Committee for Nuclear Responsibility and others have also been lobbying for a moratorium similar as the one Mr. Gavel has proposed. The National Task Force Against Nuclear Pollution has attempted to get 500,000 signatures on a petition to Congress supporting a moratorium. There has also been action at the state level. Californians for Safe Nuclear Energy gathered 470,000 signatures a month ahead of its deadline to put a nuclear referendum on the 1976 ballot. The ballot initiative calls for the nuclear industry to assume full liability in the . « �f >*n w % Bill to aid consumers buying hearing aids a 200-300 per cent which dealers say is necessary because of service and by Liz Deane includes Spectrum Staff Writer mark-up Two bills, one that would require prescriptions for hearing aids and another that would free provide voter-information before elections may soon be passed by the State legislature, according to New York Public Group Interest member Jill Siegel. (NYPIRG) The hearing aid bill is designed to protect consumers from fraud by dealers who sell hearing aids to people who don’t really need them, or sell costly aids when less ones would be expensive adequate. , The need for this type of legislation was discovered after a NYPIRG study of hearing aid practices in Queens, N.Y. The study allegedly found that hearing aid dealers made misleading and false statements, and that testing procedures were shoddy. “And this is not an isolated case, it happens all over,” Ms. Siegel said, adding that “other studies verify this information.” dealers’ solution to the problem was licensing, although the idea included a stipulation The that already dealers would not have to practicing take the licensing test. NYPIRG would like to make the process similar to the purchasing of eyeglasses where the patient must obtain a prescription from a qualified doctor. “Seventy per cent of the customers go straight to the dealers without first consulting a doctor," Ms. Siegel said. This creates a conflict of interest by the dealers because they make more money if they sell more hearing aids, she explained. Ms. Siegel suggested that before purchasing: a hearing aid, individuals should consult both a doctor and an audiologist, who is trained to rehabilitate people with hearing problems by teaching them skills such as lip reading. The average hearing aid should cost about $400. This price The Spectrum is published Monday.

Sponsored by Maimonides Institute, the oldest .leading organization under Jewish auspices conducting schools, residential treatment treatment The new law should not increase prices and Ms. Siegel felt that it would probably even lower costs. Hearing aid manufacturers and dealers are currently lobbying against the legislation, but Ms. Siegel is optimistic that the bill will pass. Voter bill The Ballot Pamphlet Bill is to increase designed citizen-awareness of political issues and candidates before election day, so they can make educated political decisions. The pamphlet, which would be sent to all registered voters, would include a brief explanation of each amendment to appear on the ballot with a summary of major arguments for and against it; the name and office sought by each candidate; a short biographical statement; and a description of positions taken by the candidate on major issues. Candidates could check the publication for accuracy, but the overall for the responsibility pamphlet would remain with state election additional could add that would officials. For an fee, the candidate a personal statement also help pay for the pamphlet. The pamphlet would also “non-partisan contain information,” said Ms. Siegel. Similar programs are already operating in Oregon and other western states.

Bums and Goodman cited many previous legal decisions which tended to uphold their contentions. But Mr. Bums, former director of the Attica Brothers Legal Defense, and who joined the defense team only Tuesday, did not confine his remarks to the technicalities of the dismissal motions. Campus Editor State Supreme Court Justice Mattina reserved ruling Monday on a motion to drop murder and felony murder indictments against former Attica inmate Shango (Bernard Stroble), accused of killing fellow inmate Barry Schwartz, in the early hours of the September 1971 uprising. Arguments made in support of the pre-trial motion to dismiss marked the first time statements were permitted in court dealing with the political aspects of the prison rebellion, information that was ruled irrelevant in the Dacajewiah-Pernasalice trial. Judge Mattina had previously indicated that he would permit this type of testimony to be entered into the court record. John Special Assistant ‘Frame-up’ “This is a frame-up, and I’m ashamed,” he told the court. “When we see the way justice has been preverted, we’ll learn a lot.” Pointing to the 42 Attica related indictments, “the racism and abuse of power,” Mr. Bums said the damage already done so far “irreparable.” He then gave the floor to Shango, who is acting as his own attorney for the common law, or direct murder indictment against him. Attorney Generals Patrick Moynihan and William Nitterauer contend that “As an oppressed black man, 1 cannot say I respect the court you represent,” Shango began. Shango explained the injustices heaped on black people over the Barry inmate Schwartz’s throat because Scwartz and inmate Kenneth Hess, also found murdered, spoke to a reporter without first getting cut Chango “hypocrisy leaders. The Motions begun Defense attorney Ernest Goodman initiated motions Wednesday morning to dismiss the murder indictments. Mr.Goodman said he would prove the prosecution was guilty of misconduct for withholding potentially exculpatory evidence from the Grand Jury and the defense. It was reported Tuesday that an important member of the Attica special prosecutor’s office has resigned and charged the chief prosecutor with covering up possible crimes committed by law enforcement officials who put down the prison uprising. An inquiry into whether state troopers and correction officers Hey wood Bums committed Jury proceedings burdensome integrity” The crux of the defense arguments is the so called Brady order, a legal ruling which compels a prosecutor to provide a Grand Jury with all known facts, crimes “lacks and was being “aborted,” and the special prosecutor “repeatedly refused to allow witnesses to be called, questions to be asked, leads to be followed and legal and logical conclusions to be utilized which will allow a fair presentation” of th£ cases to the grand jury, according to a letter written by Malcolm Bell, formerly special prosecutor Anthony Simonetti’s chief assistant. The prosecution replied by stressing that Thomas Hicks “acted together” with Chango in the murders of Barry Scwartz and Kenneth Hess; the new information therefore would not exculpate Shango. The prosecution claimed in court that is is not incumbant upon a prosecution to supply a Grand Jury with all the facts because it would make the Grand even if contradict they sought by the indictments prosecution. However, defense attorney Heywood Burns, also a visiting professor of Law at the State University at Buffalo, said previous rulings have made it incumbant upon Grand Juries to prevent innocent people from being implicated in crimes. A jury of eight men and four Saturday convicted Dacajewiah (John Hill) of first degree murder and Charlie Joe Pernasalice of attempted second degree assault in the death of guard William Quinn.

Constitution.” He pointed out how many amendments which the purported to protect individual liberties of balck people actually do nothing at all. “What does due process mean to black people,” he asked. “As a black I am not acquainted with process.” The “equal that protection” clause in the fourteenth amendment, Shango said, has never been accepted by the “white racist blind.” Citing the trials of Martin Sostre and George Jackson, he observed: “Black people walk into years permission from the inmates negotiating board, comprised of many of the uprising’s political defense, on the other hand, claims that Barry Schwartz and Kenneth Hess were murdered by inmate Thomas Hicks, killed during the retaking, of D yard, and whose role in the case the prosecution intentionally and illegally concealed from the Grand Jury which handed down the indictments against Shango. In that case Judge Gilbert King refused to admit defense statements concerning conditions which precipitated the rebellion, the treatment of prisoners after the prison was recaptured, and the political motives behind the ordered assault on D yard, which resulted in 39 deaths, and the subsequent indictments of a courtroom to face a white jury, white prosecution, white stenographer, white bailiff.” Parallels drawn Shango likened the Attica rebellion to the slave rebellions in this country in the late nineteenth century. “The hypocrisy of this country is well recorded by this country’s blacks. Attica is only a small example of this,” he asserted. Shango recalled that he was shot three times during the assault on the prison and tortured the following night. “I was marked for death by the corrections officers . . . who made me crawl on my stomach with my face to the ground through water and mud and blood,” he said. “I knew they wanted to take my life that night.” Then, pointing to the prosecution team, his voice rising, he declared the the prosecution had only indicted inmates because “it is not a crime to kill a slave in America.” faces multiple life on one common law murder and two felony murder Shango sentences indictments.

The Spectrum has recently run advertisements by the Western State University College of Law and the University of San Fernando Valley College of Law, both in California. However, pre-law advisor Jerome Fink told The Spectrum that neither of the schools are accredited by the American Bar Association (ABA) nor are they members of the Association of American Law Schools. While both schools claim to be accredited by the State of California, graduates of these schools will be unable to take the bar examination in states other than California. Additionally, the number of these school’s graduates who have passed the California Bar is small, Dr. Fink added. Prospective law school candidates should consider only those law schools accredited by the ABA, Dr. Fink warned, so that “they may practice wherever they choose.” United University Professors Buffalo Center Chapter Important Meeting Wednesday, April 9th 3:15 pm - Main Dining Room- Faculty Club-Harriman Librar AGENDA 3:15 ACTION IINE 4:00 Have a problem?

Where do you go if you want information on various graduate schools at other colleges and universities? A. The primary source on campus is the Career Placement and Don’t Miss Guidance Office in Hayes C. They maintain a library of catalogues dealing with graduate studies in the United States and abroad. They can also give you detailed information about various graduate schoools. Another source of information may be instructors within given departments here at the university. They may have insights into which graduate schools are better and which are worse. Another source for information would also be academic advisors, who also may have a more specific knowledge of the graduate departments at other universities and colleges. Q.

Report of Nominations Committee and nominations Conference with state legislators — SPECIAL STUDENT DISCOUNT PRICE TICKETS AVAILABLE AT THE NORTON UNION CENTRAL TICKET OFFICE can receive money from the A. This is correct. The procedure is as follows. First, you must have a letter from your instructor saying that either you are in danger of failing or that you are in serious need of tutoring in that particular subject. You then can get a tutor either through the department offering the course or you can request one from the Office of Veterans’ Affairs at 216 Harriman Library. In either case, you must bring the letter to the Office of Veterans’ Affairs. There you will be given a one page form to fill out for the VA. This form is filled out either at the end of each month of tutoring or at the end of the. semester and returned to 216 Harriman Library. From there it is sent to the VA and you should receive a check for the amount you specify within three — ONLY $1.00! Thruway Exit 56/Hamburg, N Y. Post time 7:30 p.m. weeks. / Please notice that the VA provides that you can receive up to $60 per month for tutoring with a total limit of $720. The VA reimburses you up to these amounts after you have been tutored and the check is sent to you, not the tutor. Most tutors are willing to wait until you receive the check for their payment. But this is something you must work out with each tutor. Very few veterans take advantage of this support facility of the VA and many more should. Finally, please remember that this money does not come out of your regular education benefits; it is an extra. Q When is spring coming to SUNYAB. Buffalo? This is my first r year at A.

' Page four The Spectrum Wednesday, 9 April 1975 . . C// -r V * �Students as participants Bad publicity Pot studies criticized by ‘Consumer Reports by Neil Klotz Special to The Spectrum ’ Consumer Reports magazine has issued a report charging that a pattern of wide publicity for unfounded adverse medical research on marijuana has been established by much of the nation’s scientific community. In its March publication, the Consumers Union said that a “horrifying collection of marijuana hazards” have been widely publicized recently, but “when a research finding can be readily checked an allegation of adverse marijuana effects is relatively short-lived. No damage is found and after a time the allegation is dropped often to be replaced by allegations of some other kind of damage due to mariju|na.” Speculating that it is too early to determine the true effects of marijuana smoking, the report suggested that a better picture of the long-term effects could be obtained by studying a country where marijuana has been a daily custom for years. ... — (CPS) For the first time, students have won the legal right to participate in collective bargaining negotiations in higher education. The Montana legislature has passed a bill that grams students not only the right to observe' bargaining sessions between faculty and administration, but to also participate actively in* caucuses as part of the public employers’ team. Although students at several schools across the nation have been allowed to observe bargaining sessions by the mutual consent of faculty and administration, this consent has often dissolved, leaving students on the outside while negotiations directly affecting their tuition, class size and governance rights continued. Montana is the first state to guarantee student rights during bargaining. Supporters of the bill have received assurances that the governor will sign the measure into law sometime next week. - “Usually students don’t become aware of bargaining until their faculty and administration have already negotiated away many of their rights,” said Mr. Nelson. “Hopefully we’ve gotten in before there’s any damage done.” Although the student bargaining bill passed the State House 60-31 and the Senate 41-8, the student lobby had to contend with a number of groups originally opposed to the legislation. On one hand, said Nelson, were the faculty unions, whose initial reaction was “shock and horror and outrage.” On the other were those pro-industry legislators who didn’t like collective bargaining in the first place. A third group were state congresspeople “who don’t feel students should have a damn thing Jamaican study The magazine went on to cite a Jamaican study of 60 men, 30 of whom had smoked eight marijuana cigarettes a day or more for an average of 17.5 years. The study concluded that “the long-term marijuana use by these men did not produce demonstrable intellectual There is no evidence to' suggest brain damage.” or ability deficits . In responses a countercharge by the National Institute on Drug Abuse that the Jamaican study was unreliable because the study group was not big enough, the magazine pointed out that a widely publicized study linking marijuana to brain damage involved only 10 men. All 10, the magazine went on, had used LSD, eight had used amphetamines, four had significant head injuries, and a number had used other drugs such as heroin, barbiturates or morphine in addition to marijuana. But the study concluded that marijuana was solely responsible for the test results. One authority was quoted by the magazine as saying that “speculative connection between cannibis use and brain damage is .. highly suspect.” The Consumers Union report pointed out that marijuana smokers as a whole do not show the adverse effects cited in unfavorable studies. As to be expected, not everyone concurred with Consumer Reports’ opinion. “To suggest that there is a pattern of serious consequences and as I think tends to ignore soon as they are checked they are disproved or mis-state what the present status of the situation is,” declared Dr. William Pollin, director of research for the National Institute on Drug Abuse. Dr. Pollin said he felt Consumer Reports treated the marijuana ... issue too lightly. HILLEL invites Oneg Shabbat you to an — Kumsitz Led by Jack Buchbinder APRIL 11 at 7:30 pm FRIDAY The most stipulate that: important provisions Of the bill Each student government may designate an agent to meet and confer with both its board of regents and with the the public employer faculty bargaining team before bargaining begins. The student team may observe negotiations and participate in the caucuses of the public employer/regents’ team between sessions at the - - - — table. Students may meet and confer with the regents’ team concerning the negotiated agreement before the contract is signed. Student observers must maintain the confidentiality of the negotiations. Although the measure does not grant students the right to veto a contract, it does allow them ample opportunity to voice their concerns throughout the bargaining, according to Bruce Nelson of the Montana Student Lobby, who was instrumental in formulating and gathering support for the legislation. “Students’ whole lives can be affected by a faculty strike or work stoppage,” Mr. Nelson said. “If you’re going to subject them to such a burden, they should at least have some say in the process.” Although no faculties in Montana have unionized yet, elections for bargaining agents will occur on several campuses in the state soon. — — The student lobbyists, however, convinced both pro-union and pro-management forces that students could help them by*participating in the session. As part of the public employers’ team, students would lend extra clout. But as advocates of certain faculty concerns, students could do that group some good inside a management caucus, the lobby argued. Although the tactic of playing both ends against the middle worked, it did have an element of danger, Mr. Nelson noted. “Since this was a first, the newness of the whole thing allowed us to use a stfategy that gave us nearly a unanimous vote,” he said. “But if the strategy had backfired, we would have gone down to a unanimous defeat.” The University Jazz Club and UUAB present in concert — Second floor lounge of Red Jacket-Bldg. 3 Enjoy Kiddush, Songs,Stories, Refreshments sa* Heron and also - Campi Beginner and Advanced Students Welcome!

Wednesday, 9 April 1975 The Spectrum Page five . . �Failure in the Mid-East The recent collapse of the Middle East negotiations is conclusive proof that Henry Kissinger's exclusionary, divide-and-conquer diplomacy will never bring about a peaceful settlement. Mr. Kissinger's "step-by-step" approach to the Middle to separate Egypt from the East ostensibly had two goals other Arab states and exclude the Soviet Union from any role in the settlement. In this way, Egypt would be isolated from the Soviet Union as well as her natural allies. But what Kissinger failed to understand is that. Egyptian President Anwar Sadat would never alienate his neighbors or surrender the leverage that could be gained by playing the two the United States and the Soviet Union superpowers against each other. Many months ago, critics of the Kissinger approach wisely urged that the Soviet Union be included in negotiations at the earliest moment. If joint agreements and guarantees could be worked out through private diplomacy, they reasoned, there would not be a need for an expansive session of the Geneva conference. As for Kissinger's intention of isolating Egypt from its allies, many observers believed an agreement with Egypt alone would not be worth the paper it was written on. Certainly, if Syria or Lebanon went to war, Egypt could not remain on the sidelines and abandon the joint Arab goals it has espoused all along. It was not surprising that the negotiations broke down over precisely this issue. Israel was demanding, in return for territory, assurances that Egypt would not join with the other Arab states in a war against Israel, even though Egyptian President Anwar Sadat would never have gone along with this plan because it would be viewed as a betrayal of Syria and Lebanon. And even if he had, his pledges would have been worthless because he would have at the same time been forced to make symbolic compensations to his Arab neighbors that would have negated such pledges. In effect, operating with Sadat alone was tantamount to encouraging him to make pledges of non-beligerency that could never be kept. At the same time, Israel was reluctant to trade concrete things like land, strategic passes and oil wells for intangible pledges that it knew Egypt was reluctant to make in the first place. Mr. Kissinger compounded these structural flaws in his diplomacy by trying to oversell his plan for peace. By repeatedly warning that the collapse of step-by-step negotiations would leave the question of peace up to the Geneva Conference where the Soviet Union and the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) would be represented, Mr. Kissinger made this a more attractive alternative. And his practice of playing on the Israeli fear of the Soviet Union is likely to make the Soviet Union more stubborn at Geneva, and encourage Egypt to prove its independence from the United States. As the Ford Administration reviews its Middle East policy in preparation for the Geneva conference, it would be wise to learn from its past mistake of relying on separatist, personalized diplomacy and begin acknowledging both the Soviet Union's role and the bonds between Arab countries that will not be broken by any kind of negotiation. — — - The Spectrum Wednesday, Vol. 25, No. 75 Editor-in-Chief - - — — Advertising Manager - Business Manager - We guess that the rising crime rate will be an issue in the next presidential election and that after the voting is over, whoever wins will appoint another crime commission. Then after a year or 18 months the new crime commission will bring in a solemn and eloquent report that will be forgotten shortly thereafter. It will be forgotten because it won’t tell us what we want to hear. What we want to hear is that the disgraceful American crime rate, which jumped 17 percent in 1974 (highest since the FBI started collecting statistics 45 years ago) is caused by coddling criminals, parental permissiveness, the uppitiness of non-whites and abolishing the death penalty. No, what the prospective crime commission will tell us, as a long line of previous (and now forgotten) studies have told us is 1) that crime is connected with other social problems and. particularly poverty; 2) that crime is principally deterred by the celerity of justice, not the severity of justice; 3) that America’s unique widespread distribution of firearms and particularly handguns is just fine for robbery and murders, and keeps the United States up there at the top of the crime league among all the big nations, and 4) that, if we really want to reduce crime, it will cost a pretty penny in social reform and police improvement, and that probably no single investment of money, however big, will so improve the quality of American life as meeting that cost. Richard Nixon made a fine thing out of crime. Every now and then there is an intense spasm of social fury, as Felix Frankfurter said, and on the issues of law and order Nixon helped create that spasm, and then benefitted by it. In 1968 he said the Supreme Court and Attorney General Ramsey Clark were soft on crime, which flowed from “a generation-long experiment of leniency with criminals.” (The Warren Court had ruled that it was unfair to beat up suspects in police stations and deprive them of lawyers). “We cannot explain away crime in this country,” he said, “by charging it off to poverty.” That was fine for the hustings because the more complex a problem is the more the listeners want a simple answer. After the '68 election, Nixon had the awkward task of showing that he had reduced crime when he ran again in 1972, and later on. “The 17-year rise in crime has been stopped,” he told the nation incorrectly in January 1974. “We can confidently say today’ that we are finally beginning to win the war against crime.” What nonsense; what audacity the man had. It would be impossible to interview the Nixon crime-fighters on this today; they are all in jail. He himself told the nation in 1973 that the only way to attack crime is “without mercy.” He got Gerry McKeen Neil Collins ... say The law-breaker is “likely to be a member of the in the country, poorly educated and perhaps unemployed, unmarried, reared in a broken home, and to have a prior criminal record” (President’s Commission on Law Enforcement). Most of these commissions end with a burst of rhetoric and one must always remember that simply because they are eloquent does not necessarily mean they are untrue. Hear, for example, what the Katzenbach report said: “Waning on poverty, inadequate housing and unemployment is warring on crime. A civil rights law is a law against crime. Money for schools is money against crime. Medical, psychiatric and family counseling services are services against crime. More broadly and most importantly every effort to improve life in America’s ‘inner cities’ is an effort against crime.” What a change in American life because of crime. Fifty years ago many people didn’t lock doors at night. Judged by other countries the decay in American security is unique. It is possible to walk the strets of European cities safely at night. Americans are diverse in origin but that is hardly an adequate explanation for the crime rate. We are coming to live in bolted fortresses. Contrast Tokyo: it has the largest population of any city in the world and the lowest crime rate. There were 213 murders in 1970 (three with pistols), and New York (a third smaller in population) had 1117 murders, two-thirds with guns. The Eisenhower report five years ago found 90 million firearms in civilian hands, including 24 million handguns. If the Women’s movement would pardoned.

The Kcmer Commission ruefully noted the testimony of distinguished sociologist Kenneth Clark saying that he had heard the whole scenario on crime before: with the It is a kind of Alice in Wonderland same moving picture re-shown over and over again, the same analysis, the same recommendations, the same inaction. The Eisenhower Commission picked up the Clark quote from the Kemer Commission. Then, in 1972, came another report from the nonpartisan business group, the Committee for Economic Development. It listed its predecessors and also noted their unheeded message: “Their recommendations over a period of 40 years display a remarkable degree of consistency and A suitable agenda for action has thus similarity for 40 years.” Crime costs the available been business community $16 billion a year, it said. That was 1972. They should tell that to George Wallace.

I’d like to voice my feelings about the meeting held in Haas Lounge on Monday, 9 a m. by the Attica Support Committee. While organization and education are important, there comes a time when immediate action is necessary to move the struggle forward. However, the mechanics of organizing should have been relegated to the Attica Support table in Center Lounge. At the meeting, it was agreed that the courts work for those who control the courts. After the convictions, it became obvious that the only thing we can depend on the courts for is more convictions on coerced evidence. All the Support Committee said was to petition, write letters, post signs and build to get more people out at a later date. If we work within the framework of the system we will just lose again and again. Those who control it can manipulate it, and us if we act only within the guidelines they provide. What are we going to do in Albany, build for another rally? Petition the representatives of the system to release the enemies of the system? The lesson of Attica is one of all people uniting against the imperialist system that oppresses us all. It is fighting back against it wherever we are. To sap our strength by listening to those who acknowledge the imperialist system as enemy, yet refuse to struggle against it is giving up with only token efforts to ease liberal consciences. Remember the lessons of Attica and live them. Shades “Spring will be a little late this year.” Around July 1 1 believe. Buffalo’s weather is making it hard for me to want to defend it lately. I don’t care if it is the worst spring storm since 1961, it is still ridiculous. Irregardless of how grand glorious a time I had Friday night doing 180 degree turns on the wonderfully slippery and empty streets. Too much is too much! If all the snow had melted by Sunday so we could get the daffodils back on schedule, then it would have been a lark. As it is there are too many robins sitting on bushes disgruntled. Which is about as far as the light stuff will take us. The ungodly mess in Southeast Asia is “stabilizing," I hear. And there is a verdict in the first major Attica trial. Maybe the weather was an accurate foreteller of unpleasantness to follow. The Attica tiral seems the hardes to see clearly. A choice was made by someone, someplace along the line to make this a political trial. This seems to me to be vaguely a contradiction in terms. A trial such as this is by its very existence, political. The importance of winning on a political basis instead of in terms of reality frankly escapes me. As this was in and of itself a w. ||a political trial, so a victory had to be a political"victory. The probability of convincing a Buffalo jury to deal with the death of a jy policeman as a political act seems very small. That they fey sift* are liable to deal any less conservatively with the death of a correction officer seems doubtful. Kunstler is a magnetic, charismatic figure. Not knowing a great deal about law, 1 have no idea how good a lawyer he is. He may very well have been the right lawyer in the wrong place. There have been any number of political movements capable of sacrificing human beings to further the goals of the movement. I have an abiding fear that justice may have gotten lost beneath rhetoric in this case. The case on its face seems substantively weak. Even the relatively (?) conservative Justice King found it necessary to drop some charges as unfounded. And the same honorable judge seems to have made some possibly reversable errors in his comments to the jury. But the issue for me is why the jury refused to notice the gaps in the State’s case? Why were they unwilling, or unable, to come to a conclusion of reasonable doubt when the evidence seems confusing, doubtful, and contradictory. At least one friend of mine wondered out of Tarantula To the Editor. .And so the Attica Brothers were convicted. GUILTY black bold print echoes pupil contraction madness of inhumane human injustice. All of it, everywhere. Injustice creeps (kkrreeeepppss) like the . . haunting spectre. Special state prosecutor speaks of conviction "... prove* the judicial system works.” Defense Kunstler downcast *eyes weary sweat-of-brow depression punctures pores but he will continue spirits bubble abdominally below waiting for the next inning. The people wait waiting. Injustice laughs laughing. The television signals corporate energy, mindless authority. Rockefeller likeness appears “Justice wins out”.~ his provate thoughts mouthed moving sardonically WE, THE PEOPLE (a simple, seed) become mugwump pawns molested by the power misdirected. Rally speaks plain . . . talk spits fluidly with a cautious what-to-do-next encumbrance. People rallies public. Police, judges, government perpetuators of bureaucratic beam schemes hold secret caucus. They know what we know, Old hand German splitsville wizard finds renewed vocals supported by years (or the millenium-vision) of eye-I-scanning. He speaks, is applauded. "Right on” last words of Kent State Days flash in my mind reee-minding me of slogans lost to plagiarizing media. “March on Albany, April 28th.” Chubby girl means well. So do we all who nod and promise secretively to hit back harder, harder. SO DO WE ALL. I mean, WE THE PEEEEOOOOPPPLLLEEEE . . . etc. - Gerard I nmmn Schweitzer Colucci hot on the scoop To the Editor. Over the last few years I have (along with the of the student body) had the misfortune to watch ol’ Clem Colucci in his eternal search for a “scoop.” Mr. Colucci with all his self-righteousness and general “know-all” ability has been subjected to dealing with all of us peons and hacks at this lowly University. Poor Mr. Colucci has had to concede “minor points” like the life of Dacajeweiah when he could be really developing himself with his fantasies about Dr. Hunter S. Catfish. After all, we all know that these Attica trials are only isolated, rare incidents. Why bother doing anything when you’re always outside looking in. (Rumor has it that Clem’s middle name is the same as his column.) Why doesn’t Mr. Colucci come out and lead us into his oblivion. It must be tough to be always right. I agree with Mr. Colucci that he would march with Marxists, right-to-lifers, Native Americans, etc., especially if it yields him more people to be better than. rest David Chavis P.S. Your idol Harvey Lippman is alive and well and glued to a TV set in Newton, Mass. Why don‘t you keep up the tradition. Correction Correction: In Monday’s The Spectrum, the headline Unintended use of EUicott poses maintenance woes, erroneously reflected the theme of the article. The writer intended to give an architectural appraisal of the structure, not to add to the complaint about it. ffl»ta|fc OF REFUGEES WHO /"* loud 1 if the jury were really trying Kunstler and not the defendents. Given the reality of human frailty and the current unavoidably of jurors being human, it seems impossible to know why what happened did. Perhaps the movement is not so much dead as myopic, unable to see the realities for the showmanship. Large pieces of men’s lives are important; more important, perhaps, than the public presentation of political rhetoric. Just so, the current influx of Vietnamese orphans is also suspect in my eyes. The publicity being afforded a program that will bring out 10 to 10 thousand orphans, many of them in wretched physical condition, is fine. What it not so fine is the fact that the political question of why the hell they are orphans in the first place and how we avoid producing as many more as are being airlifted out are being totally ignored. Even more horrifying to me is the fact that the U.S. government will be even more directly responsible for any bloodbath in Vietnam in another way. Unless you have worked for the U.S. for IS years you cannot get a visa to leave Vietnam for this country. Our immigration laws are not going to be relaxed in this or any other situation apparently. That means that a Vietnamese national had to be working for this country by 1960 or before to be allowed out of Vietnam and into the States. 1 saw the IS year figure in only one place, but the reports from Saigon seem to confirm that the very people the North Vietnamese are liable to consider traitors are locked out of the U.S. Talk about abdicating responsibility! We went in there and hired who knows how many thousands of Vietnamese to work for us. These people are now, rightly or wrongly, very probably very high on the North Vietnamese-Viet Cong shit list. It is reasonable from their point of view to see these people as expendable, if not outright traitors. And we, well, the Federalista’s currently occuppying Washington have the gall to talk about the awful things the bad guys will do when they take over. The issue of Mai Lai aside, i.e. which side is the bad guys, the question of why all those folks are going to be there to get bloody seems an eminently reasonable one. So, spring will finally come, and what will we have then I best beloved? It seems to be a barren spring, emotionally and politically. The robins are freezing and the daffodils exist only in florists windows. Two men will go to jail relatively unnoticed, and we will assuage our national guilt for creating a full fledged war by adopting some orphans. Ain’t that just fine. Happy rest of the week to you!

SASU hopes additional funds will be included in the state supplemental budget, to be voted on in June. Neil Seiden of SASU said the “SUNY budget is even less than the one proposed by Governor Carey, which was also less than the original budget proposed by SUNY officials. acquisition funds and “This cut has already effected hospital equipment throughout the State University system,” Mr. Seiden said. Additionally, new construction on the Amherst Campus could be cut in half, he explained. “There could also be drastic reductions in faculty, [and] teaching assistants, causing an increase in the student-faculty ratio and a decrease in course offerings,” said Mr. Seiden, who projected that funds for the work-study program would also be reduced. The State legislature may also increase tuition and dormitory rents. “New York Slate already has the seventh highest tuition rates in the country,” Mr. Seiden said, “and 69 per cent of the student body depends on parental incomes of less than $12,000 a year.” He pointed out that the state has given $146 million to private colleges and universities across the state for the 1974-75 academic year, and some funds have even gone to support athletic teams “when not a dime is spent on athletic programs at the State Universities!” Beginning today, tables will be set up on all three campuses urging students to write letters to their legislators. Postage will be paid for by the Student Association (SA). “If we are to stand a fighting chance against the budget cuts, we need the support of every student on campus,” Mr. Seiden asserted. Also, SUNY schools involved in the campaign will be mailing form letters to the parents of all full-time undergraduate students urging them to contact their legislators. # J � - PARTICIPATE IN 2 THE CARNIVAL TO AID #THE HUNGRY OF THE WORL f APRIL 14 15 - * April 14th from Fall registration Above is a composite picture of an unknown man who sexually assaulted a female student at gunpoint last Thursday on the Main Campus.

West preview St. Louis should ease into first place in the N.L. East. Ted Simmons and Reggie Smith are the big bats on a team that boasts four .300 hitters. But their pitching is suspect. Bob Gibson is getting old and the staff lacks that “pro” starter. The Pirates again boast that amazing hitting attack, featuring an outfield of Stargell-Oliver-Zisk. The defending champs still lack pitching, but that didn’t stop them last year. The Mets, man for man, may have the best defensive team in the division, particularly in the infield where it counts. But New York’s chronically anemic hitting should keep them from the top. The N.L. West race figures to be between the two talent-laden teams, Cincinnati and Los Angeles. The teams are evenly matched at eight of the nine positions, but at the most important position, pitching, the Dodgers have a-marked advantage. Their staff, centered around Andy Messersmith, Tommy John, Don Sutton and Mike Marshall, is the best in the league. Atlanta and Houston, two evenly matched teams, figure to fight a meaningless struggle for third place. The Astro’s are solid but unspectacular infield of Tommy Helms, Roger Metzger and Doug Rader gives them the edge. Atlanta has just too many weak spots in the infield, and after Phil Niekro and Buzz Cupra, their pitching is weak. San Diego, a team on the way up, could pass San Francisco, a team on the way down. Dan Greenbaum Larry Leva /oy Clark Mike O’Neill Montreal and Chicago bring up the rear as a result of trades which stripped them of players like Mike Marshall, Ken Singleton, Ron Santo, Ferguson Jenkins, and Willie Davis. Despite Charlie Finley, the Oakland A’s should go all the way again in the A.L. West. The loss of Catfish Hunter weakens what was once the strongest pitching staff in baseball, but the A’s offensive punch is something else. Billy Williams comes from Chicago to fill the only weak spot, designated hitter. The top challenges should come from the Texas Rangers and Kansas City Royals,. With the addition of Clyde Wright to the mound staff, the Rangers are only a solid fourth starter away from being a serious contender. Willie Davis traded from Montreal to fill in the defensive gap in the outfield. Meanwhile, the Royals will have to pull themselves together after their 1974 collapse to be considered a strong contender. The White Sox, minus Dick Allen, will have to depend on their solid pitching if it hopes to annex the divisional crown, as will the California Angels, who have the top starting rotation in the league in Nolan Ryan, Bill Singer, Frank Tanana, and Andy Hassler. Minnesota has too many holes to fill before they can move out of the second'division. The Yankees, with the additions of Catfish Hunter and Bobby Bonds will be in the A.L. East race all the way, but questionable infield defense may keep them from the title. Every year the Orioles seem to come up with another way to win the division. This year they have added Lee May and Ken Singleton, giving them the most powerful team they’ve had in years to go along with their league-leading defense. The Red Sox, who were in first place last year until September, will be in contention if pitchers Rick Wise and Reggie Cleveland have strong years. The Cleveland Indians have solid hitting but lack a quality pitcher whose last name isn’t Perry. The Brewers have Hank Aaron but not enough hitting to make up for a weak pitching staff. The Tigers have only young sensation Ron LeFlore to look forward to.

IN A LECTURE AND SLIDE PRESENTATION Wednesday, April 9th CLARK GYM at 8:00 pm Tickets available- Tuesday April 8 at Norton Box Office by David J. Rubin Staff Writer The second phase of elimination in Buffalo Raceway’s Student Harness Racing Driver Championship has left five Buffalo students still in the running for the championship. Robert Adelman, Robert Balcerzak, Salvatore Galante, Frank Owens and Monica Winkel have survived the cut and will compete in Friday’s elimination race. Adelman, Balcerzak, Galante and Owens were among six winners of a lottery in which representatives from this University were picked. Ms. Winkel, an alternate selected in the same lottery, was apparently more impressive in the sulky than some of the winners and will race this Friday night against seven othej- students. One or maybe two Buffalo Drivers now have an excellent chance of advancing into the finals on May 9. Only three non-Buffalo drivers attended the mandatory practice session last Monday, so championship coordinator Mark Coloton had no alternative but to put five Buffalo students in the race to fill the eight slots. Although the turnout at the practice session was not overwhelming, Coloton was impressed with the overall capabilities of some of the candidates. He singled out Larry Zgoda of Villa Maria along with Buffalo’s Frank Owens and Monica Winkel as the top drivers in the group. Coloton and publicity director Chuck Burr both seemed very satisfied with the championship so far. “At least no one has broken a leg yet,” said Coloton. Both Burr and Coloton plan to continue the championship in years ahead. The student drivers are also quite pleased with the way things haye turned out.

That was the verdict heard Saturday night in the Erie County Courtroom. Dacajewiah (John Hill) was convicted of murdering prison guard William Quinn and Charles Pernasilice was found guilty of second degree assault against Mr. Quinn, the only slain prison guard not killed by state police gunfire during the 1971 prison uprising.

After Judge King denied bail after 19 hours of deliberation.

Dacajewiah began to “I know that if John Hill is in * s jail for having killed a corrections officer, he will be killed or molested or injured or harmed in jail Mr. Kunstler said he made a deliberate attempt to make eye contact with the jurors when they filed into the courtroom to have the verdicts read, but could not. “I couldn’t and John Hill couldn’t. Their eyes were downcast,” he said. Anguished, Mr. Kunstler spoke about the judicial system that frees John Mitchell and John Erhlichmann but punishes those who rebelled against dehumanizing prison conditions. “The railroad goes on.” he said bitterly. As Dacajewiah was removed from the courtroom by Erie County Sheriffs, he retained his composure and told supporters to “be strong.” Special State Prosecutor Louis Aidala said the verdict “proves the judicial process works. I think that this long trial will probably go a long way to restoring the faith of the American people in the judicial and legal system in this country,” Mr. Aidala stressed. Waiting for the verdict had almost beome an occupation for many supporters over the past few days. Lenny Bruce’s thought, “In the halls of justice, the only justice is in the halls” seemed a reality to the many people who had waited throughout the weekend for the verdict. The third floor of the County Courthouse had taken on the appearance of a camping ground. Many supporters lay across benches or sat on the floor. Many others, however, were not even allowed to wait directly outside the courtroom, despite Judge King’s ruling that they would be allowed to remain there. On Saturday morning, there was a brief disturbance when supporters tried to enter the building and were met by Erie County Sheriffs. Mr. Pernasilice, Dacajewiah and defense attorney Margret Ratner stayed with supporters while William Kunstler went to ask Judge King why he had broken his pledge. faces.” On Friday, night, anxieties intensified after the jury requested the complete testimony of the two witnesses who had testified for the state against Mr. Pernasilice. Some observers took this to mean that the jury was “hung” or had reached a decision on Dacajewiah. The request for the Pernasilice transcripts also surprised many people because there had been virtually no evidence against him. No evidence Although one witness had testified that he saw Mr. Pernasilice strike Mr. Quinn once Restrain police on the back, medical reports At one point, Dacajewiah held showed that he had no back back a police guard to restrain injuries.

Many observers newspaper reports of the previous began commenting on the day’s events. uniformity of the jurors’ “poker Feeling of despair After the verdict, family, friends and members of the defense team gathered for a short while at the Statler Hilton. There was a general feeling of despair. Some discussion centered on the state prosecutor’s insistence on holding the trial in Buffalo, which is only forty minutes away from Attica prison, despite requests to hold the trial in New York City. When State University at Buffalo students learned of the verdict, more than 100 gathered in the Community Action Corps (CAC) room in Norton Hall. After the shock wore off, the students made plans for an emergency rally to be held this morning at 9 a.m. in Haas Lounge. The Dacajewiah-Pernasilice trial has received national attention because of the ramifications of the verdict. A guilty verdict is generally regarded as a condemnation by the people , • Charles Pemasilice Dacajewiah —continued on page 8— �Snow blankets Buffalo: it can Under consideration paths bike County happen anytime but summer "When it rains, it pours" in snows... it Buffalo. And when record breaking 70 degrees. But 93 years before that, in 1881, the temperature dropped to a chilly 14 degrees. The most snow to accumulate on the ground in April was 4.8 inches in 1938, while in 1957 Buffalo shuddered under 67 m.pji. winds. Therefore, no records were broken during this — past storm. In fact, the U.S. Weather Bureau said the storm was not even unusual. However, the Automobile Association of America (AAA) received approximately four times the number of calls that it usually does. When questioned late Friday, it had already answered about 800 out of 1000 calls. The AAA says that cold and wet conditions create more “business” for it than icy roads, because that is when many batteries go dead. Campus Security reported about six minor “fender benders” on campus since the beginning of the storm. Calling conditions “deplorable,” Campus Security officer Wayne Robinson said maintenance was working “round the clock,” to plow and salt the roads. He explained that the major problem on the North Campus was the snow drifts produced from strong winds. Salting has not greatly improved road conditions because the winds have blown the salt away. “The storm is out-running the services,” Lt. Robinson said. The storm began from a big low pressure system out of the Southern Plains, .which is usually a large tornado area. It travelled up the Mississippi River, across to New York State and to the gulf of Maine. The U.S. Weather Bureau predicted up to 12 inches of snow and winds up to 55 m.p.h. by the end of the storm. Temperatures were expected to drop to 20 degrees, excluding the wind chill factor. “It can happen any time in Buffalo,” said a spokesman from the Weather Bureau. “That is, except for the summer months.” He suggested that the “summer months” consisted of the Fourth of -Fredda Cohen July.

The .Vietnamese people, after struggling for generations for the right of self-determination, deserve an end to foreign involvement in their affairs, or more specifically, an end to the years of American intervention and puppet governments. As the peoples of Southeast Asia near the real “light at the end of the tunnel,” officials of the United States government and various news media are embarrassingly caught up in the contradictions of their foreign policy and the distortions they generated to justify their imperialistic adventures to the American people. The crisis As of this writing, the Lon Nol government in Cambodia has effectively fallen, and Lon Nol himself has fled the country. In South Vietnam, the cities of Qui Nhon and Na Trang are no longer occupied by forces of the Saigon government, and there is almost universal agreement that Saigon itself can hold out for no more than a number of months. And, as with each previous advance toward self-determination by the peoples of Southeast Asia, the United States print and electronic media are busily churning out yet another series of distortions, half-truths and lies to justify past and present American involvement. These claims are repeated again and again, intentionally, in the hope that they will Come to be regarded as maxims. It therefore becomes important to take these claims one by one and examine them to find out how truthful they really are. Bathing in blood We are constantly being told that a “communist takeover” in these countries will result in a bloodbath. This is a favorite not only with the press but with government officials as well from Gerald Ford on down to a handful of reactionary — congressmen. There is, one might suppose, a probability that a number of the chief Vietnamese and Cambodian conspirators and architects of United States aggression will be tried for war crimes against the peoples of their respective countries. There is more than ample precedent for this; after our own war of independence, British collaborators were put on trial. But the history of the liberation forces indicates clearly that they will avoid these measures at all costs witness the fact that there has been no real attempt to close the airport at Phnom Penh so that those who want to leave may do so, as Lon Nol has already done. On the contrary, it is the governments of Saigon, Phnom Penh and the United States that have carried out the systematic slaughter of the opposition. Our name for it has, of course, been — pacification. The myth of disinvolvemcnt For more than two years, since the signing of the Paris Peace Accords, the American people have been told that our involvement was over. The simple truth is that American pilots are now flying American planes and arms into Southeast Asia. American personnel supervise and repair this equipment, decipher intelligence reports and actively take part in air surveillance. Whether these personnel are paid directly by the United States armed forces or by monies filtered through the puppet governments, it is undeniable that they work for the American military. These men and women constitute a mercenary army, no less a part of the American Armed Forces than their uniformed counterparts in the regular army or air force. So the reality is that the United States has maintained an active military role in Southeast Asia and is doing so today. The Pentagon, it seems, is not content to rewrite only history; it intends to rewrite the dictionary as well. By now, the vast majority of American people is aware that the American military involvement in the * Jp '•** "<-• * . countries of Southeast Asia (and many other countries around the world) is both immoral and illegal. We are caught up in the dilemma of guilt, wishing to divorce ourselves as a people from the years of suffering inflicted on others in our name and to somehow atone for that suffering. At the same time, we are extolled daily by our leaders in the federal government and the media to send even more money, arms and munitions to the Saigon and Phnom Penh governments. We are told that “American prestige,” something ephemeral that can apparently be measured only by Henry Kissinger, will suffer if we do not continue military aid. The truth is that the majority of countries of the world have, for years, considered American aggression in Southeast Asia an act of insanity at best. Nixon’s bombing of Hanoi and the mining of Haiphong harbor (both strongjy supported and argued for by Kissinger) brought a new low to world opinion of the United States. The continued appeals for more military aid prove once again that Vietnam was not a mistake, but part of a calculated and ongoing policy of imperialism and domination. Peace Accords Another continually repeated idea is that the North Vietnamese have constantly violated the Paris Peace Accords. Occasionally, some Eric Severeid type, feeling momentarily progressive, will admit that the Saigon government has violated the agreements as well. This is usually mentioned briefly, and in passing, and is accompanied by looks of terrible anguish and much hand-wringing. So the reality is again obscured. Former Undersecretary of State George Ball admitted last Tuesday in a television interview that the Paris Peace Accords were actually nothing more than a maneuver to extricate our uniformed military forces from Vietnam. He said the Accords were constructed specifically so that they would have no effect on either side in the actual fighting. Since there never was anything to violate, there were never any North Vietnamese violations. Refugees Perhaps the most perplexing of all the distortions is the allegation that thousands of refugees are fleeing before the communist “advance.” It is brought to us daily by armies of Walter Cronkites and hundreds of feet of newsfilm, sensationally portraying the plight of South Vietnam refugees who were not lucky or corrupt enough to be military or government officials or American embassy personnel. There are several reasons for this flood of refugees. A major reason is that the eleven years of brutal indoctrination (referred to by our media and government as Vietnamization), carried out by American troops. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) operatives and ARVN troops, has had an effect on the civilian population. Soldiers who, in many cases, were literally taken off of the streets and forced to fight have little affection for the puppet government and less desire to fight for it. Most importantly, the refugees are fleeing the massive and indiscriminate bombing strikes directed by Saigon, a contagion left by the Americans at the height of our involvement. However futile the long journey away from the fighting may seem, it offers more hope than carpet bombing. A New York Times editorial last week concludes its view of the situation in Southeast Asia with the lines, “At issue are the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. Their suffering must not be added to the American conscience.” After more than a decade and a half, it is still not clear to some people that conscience of America cannot be papered over or bought back with lies and distortions. The “credibility gap,” a polite euphemism devised by the media in an attempt to shift the responsibility for lies to someone else in fact, anyone else is as great as — — ever. The assimilation of a handful of the millions of children orphaned because of American aggression is meaningful only if we accept responsibility for their plight. Only if we cease to take shelter in comfortable fallacies can anything as grand as an “American conscience” become a reality.

If the program changes after the building has begun, “you are never going to be satisfied,” he added. “We have tried to overcompensate by the assignment of space. In general it is a success,” Mr. Telfer observed. He rates the complex as “superior” for a modern building, in terms of design and appearance, but only “average” in maintenance. Although few would believe it, the EUicott Complex was not designed as a hide-and-go-seek playground for after school fun. The original function of the structure, designed by Davis, Brody, and Associates, was to house the colleges. Before it was discovered that the project was too expensive, it was expected that each college would occupy a whole quadrangle. The architecture was not inspired by any of an earlier period. “It was a product of our own experience,” said architect Lou Davis. The only other buildings this complex resembles are the other structures of this firm. Some of their more famous buildings include the Waterside Housing Project, the United States Pavillion in Osaka, Japan, and the Science Complex at the State University at Binghamton. These works have put this firm in the limelight of modern architecture. It was after the actual building began that the University realized it would not be able to afford such a structure for the colleges alone. But problems are first noticed after the actual building begins, explained John Telfer, Vice president for Some of the Facilities Planning. deficiencies that now exist in the structure have resulted partly because it is not used the way it was intended. Room converts Since it was not designed with accommodations for whole academic departments, residential quarters have been used for faculty offices and master suites are used for department offices. There is Modern problem Maintenance is a major problem in the most modern constructions. Because many parts are prefabricated, they often don’t quite fit the space they are put in. For instance, a prefabricated window frame, made according to a mold, may leave a small gap in the wall, letting in outside air. The same thing can happen with doors. This has not been a problem with the Ellicott Complex, because “there was no prefabrication,” according to Mr. Telfer. “It’s used something like 7000 tons of steel,” he said, adding “It is a sturdy structure.” Although most materials were selected because of their durability, plasterboard walls were used “because it is all the artisans will do today,” he said. The windows are larger and more expensive, and will be more costly to replace, if broken. Variety acclaimed ■The structure receives •rrest acclaim because of the variety of building shapes, combining low rise with high rise. Some other architectural merits include the attractive terraces and approach spaces, and the loading tunnel underneath, said Mr. Telfer.

Mr. Nader’s speech was jointly sponsored by Student Association and NYPIRG. They never had a chance "If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. The world breaks everyone and afterward, many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially." —Hemingway Prosecuting Attorney Louis Aidala called the guilty verdict a decision which “proves the judicial system works." And so it does. It proves the process works for the "haves" and against the "have nots." It proves that trumped-up charges, however poorly presented, can still convince a largely middle class jury that all its deepest and darkest stereotypes are correct. Regardless of what anyone says, Dacajewiah and Charlie Joe Pernasilice never had a chance in the world. With millions of dollars at its disposal, the authority to use parole as a means of coercing witnesses to testify against the defendants, and the ultimate say over where the trial should be held, there was no way the State of New York could lose. In a sense, the prosecution had more at stake than the two defendantsit needed to prove the validity of its propositions, propositions which rationalized Nelson Rockefeller's decision to send a firing squad into Attica four years ago. So when the defense sought a change of venue so that the defendants could be given a fairer trial, a change of venue was denied. When defense attornies passionately argued the importance of connecting the death of William Quinn with the bloody context in which it occured, it was to no avail. When William Kunstler literally destroyed the prosecution's case in a brilliant, eight-hour summation, no one was listening. The eight men and four women who voted for conviction were probably bewildered that the trial attracted national attention and hundreds of during the week. As they saw it, two men were accused of killing a prison guard. The men had previously been convicted of crimes, and had hired a prominent lawyer to defend them. That, unfortunately, was the extent of their understanding. Judge Gilbert King played on this ignorance, refusing to allow the jury to hear testimony that might explain why hundreds of men simultaneously felt the need to dramatize their plight in Attica prison. So no emphasis was placed on the fact that hundreds of bitter inmates were running through Times Square when William Quinn was struck, and that everyone was swinging at something, whether it was Quinn, each other, or the inanimate objects around them. A remark that Mr. Pernasilice had said in parsing, which a prosecution witness himself admitted he had not taken seriously, was given more weight by the jury than the quality of life at Attica at the time of the uprising. Miraculous as it may seem, the entire jury was convinced that out of hundreds of blows, only one blow the one Dacajewiah struck was the one that killed William Quinn. As one woman who worked on the defense said of the jury a few hours after the verdicts, "They needed a world of SA wrong on Attica a picket line.

Editorial Policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief Page six The Spectrum Monday, 7 April 1975 . . by College F We wish to congratulate members of the Attica Support Group and the entire Student Assembly for their action Monday calling for Wednesday’s class boycott in support of the Attica brothers. Our encouragement to all students and faculty was to fully participate in the boycott, not merely by staying away from class for the day, but by getting personally involved in the spirit and purpose of the strike action for the duration of the Attica trial proceedings here. We at Tolstoy College (F), as anarchists, are wary of any effort to impose a political decision on an unsuspecting constituency. We supported the strike even though we realized that many people at the University have not yet made the kind of strong, deeply-felt connections in their own lives with Attica that alone would give genuine substance to SA’s call for a class boycott. Our hope is that the SA’s action will encourage the entire University constituency to re-think its political stance in light of the Attica massacre of September 1971, and the infamous and costly New York State prosecution proceedings which drag on to this dqy without getting to the root causes of the whole bloody Attica onslaught. We in the College feel that political activism counts for little when not connected to on-going personal struggles that we all face every day. Some of the “connections” we have established with keeps on rolling and after all the riots, arrests and other excitement, the State gets things back to normal with little evidence that anything important transpired at all. Yet, below the surface, the same resentment and dissatisfaction pervades, right now in 1975, at Attica Correctional Facility (as recent conversations with inmates reveals), and at — U.B. Isn’t it time we let some of the pressure off before both these institutions erupt again? The phrase “Attica is all of us” rings true only to those who have made some kind of identification with the Attica inmates and defendants and their on-going struggle. Reading the twisted versions of the Attica massacre first put out by the State, one could not help but empathize with the Attica insurrectionists when the full truth of the day’s events finally came out. (For a dramatic rendering of the event, nothing beats the well-documented A ttica film which the Support Group will still show to interested individuals, classes or other groups. As parts of the film were shown at the SA meeting Monday, it became obvious that it would not be necessary to long debate the pros and cons of the strike action.) Tom Wicker’s new book, A Time to Die, is another dramatic source for those desiring to learn more 6f the details of the Attica story.

Mr. Dawson claims that it “is the right for a performer to grow creatively.” Mr. Dawson also stated that a performer be The decision by President Ketter not to close the University Thursday night while it was in the midst of one of the worst snowstorms of the season was stupid, inconsiderate, and completely irresponsible. To make students trudge through the congratulated on his attempts at expanding his musicianship. This was all in reference to a review of the Alvin Lee concert by The Spectrum critic Sue Wos. In addition to his views on musical creativity, Mr. Dawson also attacked Ms. Wos’ review on the basis that she was disoriented in her approach to concert material. While I can agree with Mr. Dawson’s remarks about artist material selection, I also disagree about Mr. Dawson’s remarks about Ms. Wos’ review. Since Mr. Dawson agrees that a performer be allowed to choose their own material, he should also agree that a critic be allowed to formulate their own ideas and opinions. The Spectrum pays reviewers in the form of a free ticket and byline, to express their own opinions, just as Pauline Kael and Hal Crowther are do for their respective publications. Many times the public heartily disagrees with the reviewer. But if a reviewer only reiterates the public views, what good is the review? It would be similar to the musician turning into Mr. Dawson’s “puppet being.” Yes, Mr. Dawson, you can disagree with Sue Wos but you should also respect her opinion as much as you respect the musician’s opinion.

Immediate verdict To the Editor. I just received a bulletin calling for a mass vigil outside the courthouse where the Attica trials are being held. The bulletin concludes with the phrase, “The people must show what verdict they want!” 1 think that’s a fantastic idea. Popular justice is something we should all strive for. In fact, I have some ideas of my own that would require some restructuring of the criminal justice system, but which might be well worth the effort. My idea is that you would get together a large crowd not just students but people from all walks of life, a good representative mob. The crowd would gather in front of the courthouse, the defendant would be brought out, and they would vote. If they voted for acquital, the defendant would be immediately set free. If they voted for conviction he could be hanged right then and there. Just like the Roman Coliseum thumbs up or thumbs down. Even better, you could use an applause meter, like on the old “Queen For A Day” TV show. You could even wire it up directly with an electric chair and make the whole process fully automatic. This procedure would assure a criminal justice system that was quick, decisive, and genuinely popular in nature. And I bet it wouldn’t cost any nine million bucks either. I therefore confidently await its endorsement by the Attica Support Group. - - Robert A.

The crash of the C-5A, the world’s largest plane, resulted in the deaths of 181 people, fleeing the South Vietnamese capital, including 105 children. 124 people also on board survived the disaster. The C-5A has had a history of related occurrences, including wing cracks *nd torn-off engines. The‘mammoth airliner, which was to transport 243 Vietnamese orphans to Clark Air Force Base in the Philippines, crashed when the pilot attempted to return the plane to the airfield in Saigon after noticing a dangerous loss of pressurization. The accident occurred in a rice paddy, about a mile and a half - ' from the airport. South Vietnamese militiamen rushed to the site of the crash but had difficulty reaching the wreckage because of narrow roads. Tragedy American and South Vietnamese helicopters then took the survivors to the Seventh Day Adventist Hospital. The helicopters also � carried the bodies of the dead orphans and Americans who were escorting them to the Philippines. William Oldham, a chief medical advisor to the government of South Vietnam, witnessed the removal of the children from the C-5A those who survived must have been on the upper passenger deck. All those thosw who survived must have been on the upper passenger deck. All those below in the cargo section must have been killed.” The children sat 10 to a seat, which normally accommodates five adults, on the upper passenger deck, while those on the lower deck were strapped to the floor of the plane. Reports maintain that the C-5A carried more passengers than ever before, and that it was specifically intended to carry only tanks, helicopters, and other military equipment. The C-5A cost $56 million and is 248 feet long, with a 223-foot wingspan, and stands as tall as a six-story building. The plane, manufactured by Lockheed, has been used in Vietnam since 1970.

But there’s one professional athlete who makes Walton’s antics look tame chess champion Bobby Fischer. Last week, Fischer lost his world title to Russian Anatoly Karpov when he refused to play a championship match under the rules set by the International Chess Federation (FIDE). The match, scheduled for October in Manila, had a $5 million purse. FIDE regulations stipulated that the match run a maximum of 36 games, with the first player to win six games getting the title. Fischer won the championship from Boris Spassky under these rules in 1972. — —Fagenson After a month in the Bubble by Paige Miller Tennis nets will be set up today for the first in the Bubble will be used on Mondays and Fridays. On Wednesday, only two of them will be set up; the rest of the Bubble will be used for basketball. A divider has been purchased to separate the two activities. time. The four tennis courts Spectrum Staff Writer The sind and snow howled across the Amherst tundra, last Thursday night, impeded by an occasional building. The wind sent ripples across the Bubble’s plastic ceiling, celebrating the first monthly anniversary of its opening. Inside, dozens of hearty souls who had braved the bitter spring weather were playing basketball. It would have been easier for them to stay home, but the Bubble was still doing its usual brisk business. Reaction has been almost entirely positive on the Bubble’s first report card. “It’s a blessing,” said Gary Sailes, the facility director. !‘The only criticism has been that there’s no wooden floor. Other than that, the people love it.” Statistics bear him out. An average of about 2500 people per week have been going to the Bubble, and many of them show up every day. The heaviest hours are between 3:00 and 5:00 p.m., and again between 7:30 and 9:00 in the evening. ' Less lighting, more funds Lighting also was a problem at first. Some students complained that the light would get in their eyes when they went up for a shot. Using a lightmeter, an engineer determined that there was too much candlepower per square foot and had several lights shut off. The problem was solved. Since less electricity was being used, and less light bulbs were needed than originally planned, the money appropriated for this will go for new equipment. Few problems Several members of the Buffalo tennis team tested the courts last week in a pre-season workout and all agreed that the surface was excellent, echoing the track team’s earlier approval. Surprisingly enough, the jough surface has resulted in only a few injuries. None have been serious. The first month served as a test period for the Bubble. All the problems usually encountered in the opening of a building had a chance to be worked out. While ferocious wind caused the Bibble to rip about two weeks ago, it took maintenance only an hour to fix the hole. According to Sailes, the sfaff of the Bubble also has been doing an excellent job keeping out those who do not have a valid I.D. card. Slowly, more and more activities are being integrated into the Bubble’s schedule. Tomorrow will be the first women’s night and volleyball and badminton will soon be available. The Buffalo frisbee team held its first two games in the Bubble over the weekend. There was a track meet recently in what track coach Jim McDonough calls the U.B. Airdome, and the International Living cfenter will use it for indoor soccer. Unfair To the American chamption, these rules were unfair. He proposed that the match’s length be unlimited. The first to win ten wins would win the match and if the match became deadlocked at 9-9, the match would be declared a draw and the former champion would retain the title. world “The official championship occurs only once in three years,” wrote Fischer in a cable to FIDE. “Temporary form, or team preparation, or luck should not be permitted to decide the result. The World Champion should be the world’s best player, nd lr match is necessary to reach a just result with nearly absolute certainty.” Unlike many of the other high-priced prima donnas in the American sports scene, Fischer was objecting to the rules, not the price. It would be hard to conceive of a similar situation in baseball, for example, where a star shortstop rejects a lucrative three-year contract because he is philosophically 6pposed to the infield fly rule. Russian agrees Fischer’s terms are not unrealistic..He has the support of other world-class many competitors, including some of the Soviets. “A 36-game limit? Why? There’s no point in it,” said Vladimir Baturinsky, a Russian can be grandmaster. FIDE compared to the owners of teams professional American refusing to change the sport for the better. Fischer is sticking to his principles as steadfastly as most athletes stick to their demand fcr more money. After he had won the World’s Championship, he was asked by a hair cream company to do a commercial for them. But just before the filming began, he exclaimed, “1 can’t do it. After all, I never use the stuff,” and he walked off. For doing what he believes is right, he deserves praise. Fischer, however, also deserves the blame for undermining the game he helped to build up. Before he won the championship in chess, he received relatively little attention. Boris Spassky received only $2,500 for winning 1969. the championship in Fischer and his antics put the world of chess in the public’s eye. The number of players, tournaments and the amount of the have increased prizes drastically since 1972. Ali analogy By surrendering his title without a fight, Fischer is hurting the world of chess. His dynamic personality, like Muhammad Ali’s, attracts interest from who might otherwise pay no attention. When he leaves the forefront of chess, he takes much of the game’s appeal with him. Just as boxing needs Ali, chess needs Fischer. Without him, there will be no more million dollar purses, no more national news coverage, no more “chess boom.” Fischer will Fortunately, probably be back. As a former world he is champion, automatically seeded into the candidates matches to challenge Karpov in 1977. But who knows what will happen to the game of chess in the interim.

Within a “hierarchy of space,” as defined by Mr. Davis, this green is the major public space. “Semi-private space” is the area between the colleges, or the quadrangles, which is shared among college members. Thus, “every college has a private turf, a semi-private turf, and a public turf,” Mr. Davis said, “and the club the village opens up on the common green. The surrounding landscape is expected — concluded.' Creativity stifled In any building, an architect’s creativity will be stifled by the budget alloted. If Davis, Brody, and Associates could “have had it their way,” some things would be a little different. For one, the bedrooms would have been made smaller, so that fewer students would have to be forced into one room. For another thing, the dining and living space would have been blended into one. Originally, it had been expected that half of the meals would have been prepared by the college, and most would come from a “If you wanted to eat French said Mr, or Chinese food, you could Davis. There would have been no specific hours or places for eating. Lastly, a system of banners, art and sculpture would have been used for identifying the different colleges. Brian Brady, an architectural designer with the Cannon Pertnership on Grand Island, has described the complex as a “child’s random arrangement of blocks.” In terms of modern architecture, he finds it interesting that “the architects seem to have left their work unfinished,” so that the inhabitants may give it a character of their own. “It is your building and it should have your personality,” said Mr. Davis. commissary. ” Orientation Aide applications RESTRING YOU Applications for Summer Orientation Aides will be available in the Diefendorf Reception Area, Monday and Tuesday, April 7 and 8.

The demonstrators milled Police band together after dispersing a large group of protestors from in front of the courthouse (top). Erie County Deputy Sheriffs haul away a demonstrator at Wednesday's rally outside the County, Courthouse (bottom). grabbed him and took him to Buffalo police headquarters. When Mr. Heath told them he was a defense attorney, the police said, “You don’t look like an attorney, you look like a tramp.” Mr. Soloway was arrested as he ran up to the officers who were dragging Mr. Heath away. Mr. dragged away was Soloway backwards by his arms. Following several arguments and police between demonstrators, the police allowed the demonstrators to march single file in silence, without touching one another, around the entire courthouse. The demonstrators, now a slightly larger group, did this until about noontime. Police were markedly more aggressive and violent today in forcing the demonstrators from place to place. This was attributed to the fact that the protestors’ ranks had thinned considerably since the day before. Police pushed the demonstrators back by holding their nightsticks crosswise at their chests, occasionally shoving people with nightsticks or their hands. One demonstrator reported being poked forcefully in the spine, neck and ribs with a nightstick. The police “violated every legal principle. They were definitely Attica looking to provoke,” member Support Committee Bradley Angel said. ‘Like a tramp’ Mr. Heath was speaking wi several police officers when tht Do Yeursolf Plant- A Flavor . . .

The resolution noted that a number of local incidents had occurred which threatened the safety of Frechtman explained Both he and Dr. Zimmerman local citizens, particularly Jews. The Legion called on the police linked the timing of the show with memorial services next week and other governmental agencies commemorating the deaths of six to help ii inform the public and Anti-semitic activities aired An increase of Nazi propaganda in the Buffalo area has prompted the American Legion and a philosophy professor here to go on local TV show and discuss how to combat it. Philosophy professor Marvin Zimmerman, Charles Herschlag, past County Commander of the Legion and Joseph Frechtman, Commander of Coast Guard Post 1529 of the Legion, will meet with moderators Gary Luczak on WGR-TV (Channel 2) this Sunday at 12 noon. The local White Power organization will be discussed, along with anti-Semitic and anti-Black activities in general. The National Socialist White People’s Party of Arlington, Virginia runs a White Power Bookstore on Bailey Avenue. This store was the scene of picketing by the Progressive Labor Party several months ago, and has been named by representatives of Jewish groups as the source of much of the propaganda. million Jews and an estimated 14 million gentiles at the hands of Nazi Germany. “The best means of memorializing is to make sure that each generation is reminded how the Nazi movement got started in Germany by the use of false charges and propaganda, and how it seized control of the country by promoting the Bie Lie,” Mr. Frechtman said. “If the younger generation knew the facts,” he added, “there ild be little for ch? mted Id in expose local Nazis. Dr. Zimmerman speculated that he probably received the invitation to appear on the program despite not being involved in any specific anti-Nazi work now, because he had spoken before many local groups and had a reputation as being a staunch anti-fascist as well as an anti-communist.

However, the availability and cost of the Amherst site and its location near a network of major highways played a major role in determining the location of the new campus, Duane Moore of the Office of Facilities Planning told The Spectrum Tuesday. cautioned against the “1 selection of the site in the early 60’s but my influence was obviously not too great,” said Dr. Ebert, who has lived in Amherst since 1954. He explained that the area is susceptible to heavy flooding after rainfalls. “I speculated at that time that drastic precautions would have to be taken to prevent a major disaster,” he said. “When a site that is so obviously detrimental is still chosen, the reasons must be political,” he added. Accessibility President Robert Ketter denied, however, that political factors were responsible for the choice of Amherst as the sight for the new campus. He explained that between 1960 and 1963, two outside groups of engineers and city planners were hired to study five possible locations. Their findings were used by the State University Board of Trustees before they chose the Amherst site. Additionally, the size of the land and its location near Erie and Page four The Spectrum Friday, 4 April 1975 . . which counties, Niagara contribute a sizable number of students to the University, also influenced the decision, Dr. Ketter said. Most of the town of Amherst is on a flood plane, Mr. Moore explained. Floods caused by an overflow of the Ellicott and Tonawanda Creeks could conceivably cover the entire North Campus and extend to University Plaza on Main Street, he said. ‘Soft soil’ Mr. Moore recalled that floods occurred in 1960 and 1963. Additionally, he said that much of Amherst is “soft” soil rather than hard bedrock, which makes the support of heavy construction difficult. To avoid major damage to North Campus facilities, expensive engineering methods had to be employed, Mr. Moore indicated. All buddings are raised above the flood level, and man-made Lake LaSalle near the EUicott Complex was designed for drainage and to provide landfill, he explained. Because of the precautions, only some basements, roads and parking lots may be effected in case of a flood, Mr. Moore continued. The EUicott Complex was built on heavy columns drilled 20-50 feet underground to prevent the 38 buildings in the complex from sinking, he said. Construction and labor costs would have been lower if the campus were built closer to the Main Street campus, Mr. Moore said. A closer location was not selected, Dr. Ketter explained, because it would put an extra tax burden on Buffalo residents, since city governments cannot tax State University campuses. �Money available now Assemblyman urges construction speed-up by Kim Weiss Staff Writer total,” Mr. Fremming maintained, get “so the sooner we construction underway, the more Construction on the Amherst we will get for our money.” Campus must be accelerated According to the Amherst before inflation increases building legislator, the completion of the further, costs any said new campus would have a Assemblyman G.

That was a terribly arrogant statement to make. It was as if he were saying “After all, they’re JUST students.” In occurred to me later that that lebel “student” holds many different connotations. In that case, he probably regarded students as infantile brats who were incapable of becoming adults, or at least, incapable of understanding those cherished institutions and norms which “adults” can only perceive. Once students realize that changing the old way is impossible, they may safely join by Sparky A1 zamora The Attica mentality Anyone who still does not fully understand what Attica is should be shown a videotape of Judge Norman Stiller's Erie 9 County Courthouse outside the performance Wednesday. Then they will see how Judge Stiller called Dacajewiah and Charlie Joe Pemasilice "murderers," said the phrase "Brothers," as in Attica Brothers, was "disgusting," threatened to arrest anyone who uttered a word and expressed disbelief at how the demonstrators did not realize was disrupting outside the Courthouse their presence "justice." • - r r> And then, almost as an afterthought, the Judge admitted that he was not the law he was greater than the law. Although outrageous in themselves, the arrests of seven demonstrators on Wednesday and Thursday one of them a must defense attorney in the Dacajewiah-Pernasilice trial importance when be relegated to a position of secondary compared with the minds that were responsible for them. One can see now, perhaps more easily than ever before, how men in prison can reach a point where preserving their lives becomes less important than preserving their dignity. - — — Norman Stiller is by no means the odd-man out, the lone freak at a circus side show he is one of the highest judicial officials in New York State, sworn to uphold the principles of free speech and peaceful assembly because he is considered more adept at it than most men of his profession. — On the comer of Main and Bailey stands a restaurant which I’m told hates University students. And if this hatred of students is not obvious, then the service is lousy. I can’t ell you firsthand; I’ve neven been in the dive. But I have walked hurriedly past the place, pausing just long enough to peer inside. Once, the entire row of patrons sitting at the bar stared back at me and in unison, gave me the finger. As I recall the action was totally unnecessary; there was no way I’d want to go in there, in fear of losing my life and my hari. They must h$ve known I was a student, we have this incredible aura that tips rednecks off. So why this intense dislike? Again, I’m told that the regular patrons did not appreciate the student activism of the late sixties-early seventies. That’s understandable; not a whole lot of members of the surrounding community favored students back then. As a matter of fact, 1 doubt many have forgotten what went on, and at the same time, they may feel it could happen again. It sounds almost idealistic, but it could happen again. The grudge has lasted, in many cases, for five years. We are not the same students that were here in 1970, while our attitudes also differ somewhat. We are (were) here to advance our education for the fulfilling prupose of finding a job that we’re likely to have for the rest of eternity. Now is different from then because of the scarcity of good jobs. There are jobs, which are jobs, and there are good jobs which everyone is groping for. In 1970, the picture did not appear too bleak for employment, and thus, students their energies towards more could direct humanitarian goals. Today, it’s everybody for themselves pretty much and the degree of extra-curricular activities has fallen off sharply. I would not call it “selfishness,” it’s more a matter of survival. It’s nice to go out and do things for the less fortunate but it you haven’t got the means, it appears futile Actually, nobody in the community has the right to feel the same as they may have five years society. This believ is still shared by people in the as well as a number of administrators and faculty here. And now, the old hatreds have popped up again with the emergence of Attica as a highly political and moral issue. It’s not so evident within the University, that is, administrators have not spoken out, and appear to have kept their while feelings underground. President Ketter, meeting with Student Association officials on the possibility of a University strike (later denied), has probably brushed the matter aside by now, perhaps regarding all the hoopla as a student whim. He may have felt it unfortunate that the trial happened in community, ' Buffalo. The students who demonstrated outside the Erie County Courthouse Wednesday had different reasons for being there. Some have a genuine interest in the inequities of the system, others were there to relive 1970, and most, I hesitate to say, wanted to see demonstration was all about. When six students were forcibly arrested, the ralliers acted in confusion; they learned too well that there is a glamorous about particularly nothing demonstration that turns to violence. It must have been a discouraging sight. If they had stood with the police, as one friend did, they would have also learned that the officers still harbor a great resentment towards them. My friend overheard the police talking about the students in tones that could be described as downright hateful. The police remember the riots what a If a State Supreme Court Judge believes that dissent and community’s too vividly. the again, but then free speech shortcircuit justice, that the law exists to serve ago, 1 got my first inkling of community reaction evident in 1970. The narrow-mindedness was him rather than he to serve the law, and sees nothing wrong community reacted to the reactions of students. If when one woman called this paper late Wednesday viewing the day’s events on television. She in labeling men murderers before a jury has even begun the police had never arrived on campus, there would after deliberately provoking have been peace. The students weren’t looking to accused the demonstrators of deliberations, what kind of behavior can we expect from take over the University, they couldn’t have cared the police, and refused to see the point of the believed The Spectrum less about it. I’m sure. All they wanted was change, demonstration. In fact, she police, prison guards and state officials? demonstration, and had encouraged The decision four years ago to retake D yard without regard for human life, the sudden willingness of newly-parolled prosecution witnesses to change versions of their testimony, and Judge Gilbert King's refusal to connect the death of William Quinn with the bloody context in which it occured are all reflections of the mentality which Norman Stiller displayed outside the County Courthouse Wednesday morning. If the demonstrations of the last two days do not have any effect on the fates of the two defendants, at least they enabled many people to personally experience, in the behavior of the police and in the person of Norman Stiller, the lies, double standards and deliberate attempts to disjoint related events which keep the American style of justice afloat.

In the past, administrators enacted change in the best interests of this University, but their concepts were a bit warped. To them, students were not part of the University, to them, students were just temporary entities that weren't involved in the school’s long-range goals. It was all “get ’em in, get ’em out, as long as they don’t ask why, we’re fine.” When the student eventually asked “Why?”, the jig appeared to be up. But it came at a price. In an interview last summer with a controversial administrator, who no longer holds his post, I asked of the recent move by students, not taken too seriously by anyone, to impeach him. “Well,” he behind the the students to riot. “Madam,” I concluded, “you are a goddamn Nazi.” I’m not particularly proud of that statement, doube it did much to improve I and University-community relations.

If one individual is moved by this advertisement to enlist in the Navy, then The Spectrum has transgressed its so-called commitment to “letting the world know what is really happening” in the court - a good measure of irony and outrage It was with that 1 read Monday’s The Spectrum. I refer specifically to the recruitment advertisement that promised a rewarding job, training and “just plain management experience” in today’s Navy. Also prominent "in this issue was a positive critique of how “Attica is all of us,” as women, students, Third World people; in essence, ultimately - all of us. I am suspicious of The Spectrum’s long-term policy which lacked commitment and support for the struggles of oppressed peoples. Only now, when two important verdicts are imminent and campus support is at last coming together, does The Spectrum come out for the dropping of all indicted brothers’ charges and engaging in a strike, presumably just realizing that there exists one common enemy. Recognized also is how oppression is manifested in no dirth of manners. A very real oppression occurs when a Navy jet drops a bomb on a village in Southeast Asia, destroying families and laying to waste an environment, rendered obscenely dead for at least decades. Happy Birthday — house. De facto liberalism is at best hypocritical. At worst, it undermines the righteous struggles of oppressed peoples.

Ken Russell has managed to bring Peter Townshend's motley crew to life with all the vitality. performance. And why not? They must be playing out their fondest fantasies. Tina Turner, as the lusty acid queen, gets to do her ultimate animal routine. Elton John, finally tall, playing a pinball machine via a keyboard at the end of it, bemoans the inevitable end of his reign as pop star supreme. Keith Moon, the Who lunatic-in-residence, plays the outrageously perverted Uncle Ernie with satanic inspiration. Eric Clapton, ex-junkie turned clean liver, plays the preacher/sage (even though the idol representing his salvation, a statue of Marilyn from the Seven Year Itch, the new heir is sent crashing to the ground by Tommy — to the throne?). inventiveness and lunacy that went into the original, and with the added stimuli of the silver screen and "Quintophonic Sound," has created a sensorial assault that won't soon be forgotten. From the very first strains of the overture, as Captain Walker appears, sun in hand, we thank God that Russell has had the sense to leave reality behind and enter the world of caricature, parody, surrealism and fantasy. By using symbols so recognizable that they mean anything and everything, a world view emerges general enough to encompass eternal truths, as well as specific social and cultural statements. History in the making But lest we forget, this movie is more than a movie: it's an historic event. Perhaps it could have only happened with a work as fabulous as Townshend's brain child was to begin with, but Tommy is a rock film/opera in every sense of the word. As opposed to Jesus Christ, Superstar, for example, which used the same tired old Hollywood structure and imagery (King of Kings with different music), here, Russell's images are as bold, fresh and exciting as Townshend's updated score. The result? Possibly the beginning of a new art form. To start with, by featuring rock superstars (sort of living Tommies) in many of the roles. Tommy treats us to a unique sociocultural-musical statement. Russell allows the stars' public personalities to become part of the characters they portray. The resultant impact is manifold. He can simultaneously maintain the character in thematic terms, make a comment about the effects of and course of rock music and the mass media, and also say something about the particular star. Layla Monroe? At the same time, the roles, which are inherently "rock" in nature, have been cast so close to home that each star adds an unmistakable gusto to his or her Rock 'n roll casserole Not to be those players with more dramatic backgrounds make up for their lack of musical ability with a zeal and flair that must come partly from Russell's direction, partly from the fact that they've never done anything like this before, and partly, I suspect, because their parts also reflect their own secret fantasies. Oliver Reed and Jack Nicholson can't really sing, but they represent sleaze and class (respectively) so well that it doesn't matter. Although one would think Ann Margaret's Las Vegas style totally out of place in a production like this, the character of the Mother is so Hollywood-Las Vegasy that she fits in perfectly. (Wasn't it wonderful to see the archetypical sex kitten covered in beans and chocolate pudding?) And of course, there's Roger Daltrey, lead singer of the Who. Russell's direction, Daltrey's own knowledge of the glories and pitfalls of being a superstar sex symbol, his familiarity with the material, and his flair for the dramatic (which any really good vocalist needs in order to "sell a song"), combine to make his portrayal of Tommy the pinnacle of his career. Not only was his acting suprisingly high quality, but I have never heard him sing so well; powerful, charged with emotion, sometimes his voice hit notes so high and full at the same time that it sent shock waves through me. Pinball Messiah Tommy was the kind of record, and is the kind of movie, that leaves itself wide open to many interpretations. The story of yet another messiah, circa 1970's. Crucifixes and halos, rivers and the sun, the earth and the sky; these familiar signposts cross Tommy' s landscape over and over. After awhile, who cares? The theme is old; it's the presentation that's new. As McLuhan says, "the media is the message." For example: during the song, "Amazing Journey," ("'sickness will surely take the mind/ Where minds don't usually go/ Come on the amazing journey/ And team all you should know"), which is an excursion into Tommy's mind, the camera closes in on Tommy's eye. In quick succession, we see little Tommy flying with his father. Captain Walker, in his fighter plane; cut to animated star speckled almost 3-D deep space; the music shoots war crosses onto the deep blue; the camera zooms in on a central cross. Captain Walker appears on it, holding the mystical white ball which immediately opens up crosswise to fill up the screen and reveal a smiling Tommy in each half; cut to animated and camouflaged fighter planes flying across the screen, being shot down in bursts of flames; the camera pulls back to show us Tommy being held by his stepfather in front of a shooting gallery. As all this is going on, the music is building and moving along with the sights. The actual experience is so stunning in and of itself that it's significance becomes irrelevant. (Besides, we all know what it means, anyway.) Future shock Interpretation aside, one of the most interesting things about Tommy is its cumulative effect. Only when the film is over do you realize that you've been taken on an exhausting 25-year joyride. Although the road is exaggerated, distorted, sometimes absurd and always larger than life, one can still recognize the turnoffs. Townshend has done a major reworking of the arrangements of the songs, so that the music (as well as the costumes and settings) slowly evolves from the blah superficiality of the fifties to the flowery innocence of the early sixties, to the explosive glitter of the late sixties and early seventies and then to the violent, apocalyptic end of things. (Of course, history doesn't end here and neither does the movie.) Beside the obvious addition of bringing the characters to visual life, I think it is in this sense, as a spaced-out —continued on page 13— �A Gato Barbieri concert means one thing: excitement.

However, Clough doesn't deal with the inevitable shape, the product of his process, as seen from further than 12 inches. As one draws back, the effective illusion fades and the pieces' internal rhythm is no longer in evidence. His painting is much more successful. Done on paper with spray paint, they rapidly articulate zones of existence in forceful event of two-dimensional delineation. Marine horizons with potential for unlimited expansion free surging emotional charges to rest, and the spectator to calm. No names My favorite (all works are untitled) was wrapped around the gallery's one workable wall and onto its two adjoining walls. Swelling coils of baby blue, rust and royal gray fluctuate in vertical strands that interlock with each other to form a directional flow along the horizontal axis. Neither the vertical coils nor the horizontality of the pattern flow work toward visual supremacy; each exhibits its event in acknowledgement of the other; each gives, each receives. The edges are cut to echo the shape of each "spray splash" that the coils consist of. The resultant waviness, predominantly rust, looks not unlike a continuously looping parade of mutilated fingers grasping anxiously for a wall whose conventional, white, rectilinear stability shuns them. This tension between edge and plane creates a boiling effect that, in a smaller work on display, presses eagerly against the exhibit field and, in the larger works, fragments the field. Direction This type edge allows the directionality of the works a greater impetus, as edge (wave) echoes part (coil) magnification of edge results in the role expansion of part, the prime mover of directional flow. The hypnotic effect created by other part/edge works (Poons, Stella) is disrupted in favor of lyric calm. This is due to the edge evolving as a logical extension of the part, rather than the part co-defining, through parallel functioning, the edge. Simply put: content determines context rather than context determining content. Also, this calm is bolstered through the asymmetrical balance rising from the gestural quality of the "spray slashes," especially because of the greater coloristic intensity that occurs towards the center of each slash fading to mist at their edges and the occasional drips from excess paint.

Clough is concerned with surface. As one approaches more really the process of arranging forms and colors upon a two-dimensional field, flat and one must approach more honestly the reality of surface uncompromising, lending itself at great sacrifice of integrity to the illusion of depth. Working between the visual field and the viewer has become Clough's major concern. He calls Morris Louis his "Daddy" and one can see why. Louis attempted to establish, as Fried put it, an impression based solely on the "opticality" of the coloration; an illusion that would take place "within one's eyes." The essential flatness of Clough's paintings speak directly to this, while the "all over" effort achieved by the — blending of coils reminds one of a systematized Pollack. Suggestions Structurally, Charlie Clough has a lot going for him. What one would like to see, however, is a more consistently fluid handling of his material and a more distinctive sense of coloration. Perhaps, also, a greater self-consciousness of how the interaction of colors is working within his structure. I would like to see his works size increase dramatically, vertically as well as horizontally, allowing the viewers physicality to be more actually involved in the painting's presence, and thus swept into the directionality of the flow to establish a more intimate sense of communion with it. Clough is moving quickly towards his very personal resolutions of some major formal problems involving painters today. His work is a refreshing change from the ever-repeating 60's hard-edge or the slick rehash of 50's expressionism that is currently faddy. As Buckminster Fuller put it, you don't solve a problem expecting to put an end to your problems. You solve a problem to get more interesting problems to solve. Most notably in his use of part to determine edge, Charlie Clough is posing some interesting problems. Prodigal Sun �The swashbucklers travel well on French wine by Bill Maraschiello Spectrum Arts Staff The scene is a ruined bastion which warring French and English soldiers have shot all to hell. Four rambunctious French Musketeers are eating breakfast there on a bet that they will not also get shot up. Porthos (Frank Finlay) is about to have a r\ice sip of wine when the glass is blown out of his hand. He regards this occurrence bemusedly; then, in the tone of an indignanj connoisseur, he remarks "This wine does not travel well." Richard Lester's The Four Musketeers is an intelligent, honestly entertaining movie, and a welcome alternative to the recent division of cinema into Films of Great Significance and anthrpoidal swill. A number of films of modern vintage either ride off in all directions in search of profundity, or pander leeringly to mass-market impulses with results that would insult the intelligence of a baboon. (Some try the "ambitious failures" both, and usually combine the worst aspects of each.) the best of intentions when handled properly. That may not be a strikingly original insight, but it's one that hasn't been implemented much these days, whether out of choice or ignorance. In fact, Lester's whole approach to his Musketeers films is bristling with seemingly obvious artistic assumptions that turn out to be startlingly sensible on a moment's thought. For example; decorum is seldom strictly observed when one is out to slice an enemy into noodles; also, the mere hblding of a sword doesn't turn you into Errol Fairbanks. Hence, the brawling swordplay that's a major element in Musketeers. In spite of this, however, deaths occur so infrequently in the fights that we react to them as though we really were seeing someone get run through with a sword. This isn't the anesthetive bloodletting of modern vogue. - — Uncommon sense Wisely, Lester general eschews both extremes, realizing that a dash of sincerity and consistency is worth more than One, two, three Quixotic One of the basic factors in comedy is incongruity: something doesn't fit. In this case, it's often the setting that throws things humorously out of order: romantic intrigues in a steambath, or Louis XIV (Jean-Pierre Cassel) planning battle strategy while posing for a "battle portrait" astride a hobbyhorse. Lester is fully conscious of both the absurdities of the traditional swashbuckler, and the very real excitement that he can generate. But he tempers it with jaunty, fashionable cynicism that never becomes brutal. The result is the most affectionate kind of parody. The cast seems to be having the time of their lives, be anything but an immeasurable help in these circumstances. Frank Finlay's delightful ham-on-wry Porthos is a small gem. A platoon of brilliant character actors provide a hilarious sense of working-class sensibility, with Milady DeWinter's litter-bearers muttering "She's put on weight" and D'Artagnan's servant struggling manfully to carry a dozen muskets and a four-foot-long loaf of bread. Even Charlton Heston, Hollywood's Zarathustra, shows us by his work as Cardinal Richelieu that slyness and subtlety are well within his range. Femme fatale As Milady DeWinter, Faye Dunaway is bad in a fascinating way. I'm reminded of the critic who said that Mae West's problem was that she yearned to play Catherine the Great At lest Ms. West, failing her more grandiose ambitions, could fall back on playing Mae West Ms. Dunaway has similar ambitions and no supporting persona. Like a well-constructed actress robot would, she registers the proper inflections and nuances of speech and gesture, but fails to imbue them with any appreciable animation. DeWinter is a crucial role, one that is meant to be played with allure and villainy. Dunaway has neither, and her performance is probably the film's major fault. You must know by now that both The Three Musketeers and The Four Musketeers were originally intended as one film, but cut into two. Three-hours-plus of Lester's bucklesquashing could definitely pall on the viewer after a spell; then again. Four Musketeers loses some of its freshness if you've seen Three Musketeers, since you know what Lester's approach is. On the whole, though, I agree with his decision. Both Musketeers films succeeded in providing an old-fashioned good time at the flicks, where cheers, boos, and the crunch of popcorn are completely at home; why limit it to one time out? Enjoy, enjoy. ... Dance theatre forming here Buffalo's need for a repertory touring dance theatre will be fulfilled in the near future, thanks to the years. The development of a major school of dance is his second immediate goal. The school's efforts of Synyer Hanesworth, classes, workshops, lectures and artistic director, dancer and performances will deal primarily choreographer for the group, in the area of modern, African, "Tashama Outer Circle Dance ballet and experimental dance techniques, as will the touring Theatre."

Obstacles There are still a few obstacles the company and school will have to overcome before they can feel completely secure in their future. First, they need a permanent home, since their present quarters are only temporary. Second, common to all groups in the area of fine arts, they need money. Presently in the midst of tax-free, not-for-profit incorporation, the Tashama Dance Theatre will be sub mining appli cations in October to agencies such as the Ford Foundation and the New York State Council of the Arts. A major determinant in the acquisition of funds from such agencies is strong evidence of community support. Although such support has been steadily developing over the last ten years, only recently has someone come along to help realize Buffalo's goal of becoming a respectable, legitimate contributor d the‘world of dance. "One of our aesthetx goals is —Santos to try dance Synyer Hanesworth to consolidate various groups in the city," explained Mr. Hanesworth, stressing need to "break down the barriers" existing between them. He believes it is important for dancers to be exposed to as many different styles and techniques as possible and advised students to attend many dance schools to gain maximum exposure. He also feels aspiring dancers interested in attending Tashama should be willing to experiment with dances of different cultures, particularly African. "Dance, after a certain point, loses its cultural factors and becomes universal,” Mr. Hanesworth observed. The Tashama Outer Circle Dance Theatre's future already has made impressive plans for the future, including the possibility of a "master dance symposium" for the area. At various times in his career, Mr. Hanesworth has worked with Pearl Primus, Makebe Mirobi, Philip Stemps and Oliver Jones. He hopes some of these prominent names in the field of dance will visit his group. —Jonathan Rider Friday, 4 April 1975 The Spectrum Page nine . . �RECORDS PRESCRIPTION (Foi*>ign Car Rilmenta) DR.

You'd be better off listening to Tony Williams sing than even listening to he's in on it too, shy but still Stanley Clarke play - r. .jSS ■ Stan Getz, Captain Marvel (Columbia) Patty Hearst said Tony Williams was kidnapped a few years ago, after he had been the best drummer in the world. But he was too young then and didn t go to college and bad no right, but was kidnapped after he might have been getting worse because he kept singing even though he couldn't sing hardly. So they took him away and it was too bad because everyone was expecting him to do something and now *they sterilized his brain and he can't do anything anymore and so, everyone likes Billy Cobham. Like if Jack Bruce had been in the Mahavishnu Orchestra it would have been, pretty good at the time, but now he might be working out with Mick Taylor and Carla Bley so he's square. But Tony Williams was kidnapped by Stan Getz and sent to Canada. That was a few years ago, before anybody ever heard of Patty Hearst (my sister). Tony Williams was so good it was funny, all of a sudden, he's in Toronto with Stan Getz, and his manager was in on it and used to hold a gun under his cocktail at the clubs so Tony had to play and couldn't escape. But it was his fault for trying to sing so much. This album is really bad, believe me. Patty Hearst bought this album and that's when she was kidnapped. She was getting into Tony Williams with the headphones on, and didn't hear the knock on the door. All of a sudden he was in Toronto with Stan Getz and everybody in the street said; "What's he doing with Stan Getz?" Nobody knew, so they made an album and boy, is it terrible. It sounds like it was recorded in Montreal on a bus. Sometimes a few songs smell like the exhaust but if you like Stan Getz then you might not mind. But still, you probably can't eat when you listen to it and you have to fumigate your needle twice a month until the police find the album and return it to Tony Williams, whor wants to ruin them all so he can put out a new one with singong on it since Stan wouldn't let him say a word, not a word mind you.

Friday, 4 April 1975 Prodigal Sun �RECORDS Vassar Clements (Mercury) Part of me is happy to see Vassar Clements edging his way up from the anonymity of Sideman's Canyon. I think back to Will The Circle Be Unbroken � the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's monumental opus with Earl Scruggs, Doc Watson, Mother Maybelle Carter et al Ben Hur at the Grand Ole Opry, you might say. Vassar fiddled on practically every one of the 25-odd cuts, and he was astounding. From straight country to Appalachian to high-octane bluegrass, he slid through smooth as buttermilk, showing amazing imagination and freshness of conception. On top of that, the man knows how to listen to the music happening around him. And however slick or flashy he gets very much so, at it's still very clear that he's not showing off. times In one sense, Vassar Clements is a sideman's holiday. There are no "stars" on the album (except possibly for an unobtrusive John Hartford), and no vocals save two tines of "Good Woman's Love." Vassar's versatility makes for a minimum of stylistic shackles; alliterative as hell, but it's the truth. Commencing with the straight blues of "In the Pines," we go through sturdy stompers tike "Peking Fling" and "Kissimme Kid;" "Sweet and Sassy" and "Lonesome Fiddle Blues," which would be right at home on WSM; and, my God, "Nitwit Train" Besides Hartford, the crew consists of Jeff Hanna and John McEuen of the Dirt Band, the uneasily riding Charlie Daniels, a gent named Grant Boatwright whom I know I've heard of before but can't place, and a small horde of no-names who positively reek of long-paid dues. There are no instrumental credits given for individual songs, which is both irritating in itself and gives the whole record a featureless - - - quality. On the other hand, this would be a natural for one-upmanship duels between self-appointed session "experts:" "Daniels, my ass; that's gotta be a Boatwright lick!" I'm fairly sure, however, that it's Hartford who keeps throwing in the banjo breaks (especially in "Sweet and Sassy") that sparkle like a mountain stream. Structured as it is, the quality of the music rises or falls with whoever is up front at the moment. A while ago, in a review of a different record, I saw the statement "They're all good players, but nowadays, who isn't?" We're presently suffering from a surplus of musicians who are capable of providing sturdy, unexciting meat-and-potatoes licks. Much of Vassar Clements suffers from acute Studiosis, and it's a bit dull when this is the case (notably in the aptly titled "Long Way Around"). But when they clamber out of the riff rut, things really begin to cook, and the difference between competence and inspiration suddenly becomes startlingly clear. In the latter case, the musicians are doing honest-to-God playing-, the other times, they're working. But this is Vassar's album. It is his fiddle that provides the William Faulkner Dixie heat for "In the Pines," sends the Orange Blossom Special on a quick side trip through "Listen to the Mockingbird," and generally adds the appropriate dash of honey or Jack Daniels wherever it's needed. This album isn't really a clunker, it just could have been done better; Vassar Clements is worth hearing under any circumstances, at any rate. As they say in Circus, worth one listen at ’’Ifr.ry least. -Bill Maraschiello The Fifth Dimension, Soul and Inspiration (Bell) The Fifth Dimension: Marily McCoo, Florence Larue Gordon, Billy Davis Jr., Lamonte McLemore and last but not least, Ron Townsond. They’ve been around over 10 years and are famous for such easy listening tunes as "Up, Up And Away," "Stoned Soul Picnic," and their most successful and perhaps best recording, "Aquarius." Their beautiful harmonizing has always set them apart from other vocal groups. This album, their last one for Bell Records, is one of their best. There is a nice mixture of love ballads, soul tunes and five-part harmonies that the group is famous for. The album opens with "Soul and Inspiration," a remake of the old Phil Spector produced Righteous Brothers hit Marilyn and Billy sing alternate verses and give the song a more personal flavor than the original version. The instrumentation is very good with a full orchestra conducted brilliantly by the group's stage conductor, John Myles. Hal Baline is excellent, as usual, on drums, tamborine and percussion. Another highlight on this fine album is the recent million seller for the Eagles, "Best of My Love." Marilyn McCoo leads the group through the chorus while the verses are sung by the quintet in unison. The drums have a pulsating beat throughout the song that mixes well with the'fine strings arrangement of D'Arnell Pershing. The best song on the album,' and maybe the best song the Fifth Dimension have recorded since they've been, on BelL is the Florez-Cooper production of "Hard Core Poetry." The song opens with an intro of a soft piano combined with some strings. Then Marilyn begins with the first few lines followed by Florence and then Billy. It works beautifully. The change from Marilyn's precise, clear sound to Florence's somewhat more "soulful" voice to Billy's rough tenor adds a new dimension to the group's repertoire. The beautifuly second verse shows the real meaning of the song: "You can blame the world when trouble comes and knocks at your door, let your weakness cut you down to size; if you find some fault with everything surrounding you maybe it's your narrow-minded eyes," followed by the chorus: 'This is a song not necessarily sweet, I pass it on to people that I never will meet, and if my words don't make history, just call it hard core poetry." _ , The song ends with Marilyn and Florence singing as high as they can get "la, la, la, la (2X)" interspersed with a long climactic final note from the string section conducted masterfully by D'Arnell Pershing. The album, on the whole, is excellent and is about as good as The Fifth Dimension can get. The group produced most of the tracks, which marks the first time they've tried producing. The combination of ballads to up tempo soul numbers to five-part harmony type songs shows that the group is capable of doing almost any type of song well. Hopefully this album will give the Fifth the one hit they've been waiting over two years for and put them back on thecharts where they belong. For Fifth Dimension fans, this album is a must. —Steven Brieff , Prodigal Sun Xes Violins du Bat' Innocence in chaotic world by Randi Schnur but the golden era begins further and further away. Arts Editor "Social chaos is terrifying, but personal chaos is even more horrifying," as the authors of the recent best seller How to Be Your Own Best Friend have pointed out. Most people require a major portion of their lives to develop a social consciousness a true sense of themselves as integral components of that particular unit and the concurrent growth of the self can be even more difficult.

A vision which turned out to live up to the outrageous promise of its first inception. But of infinitely more consequence is the promise of things yet to come. 3-D, nothing. Up until now, the potential of sound, of music, used in conjunction with film, has been by and large ignored. Sure, there are scores and soundtracks, but by pushing them out of one small, low-quality speaker in the front of the theatre, the focus was kept on the visual.

The crowd got so excited about Dylan's presence at the festival that he had to fly out in a police launch. On the way out, Dylan grabbed Leon and the two of them left together, carrying matching black umbrellas, wearing matching black suits, and sporting identical black hats. Over the hill At that same festival, Bonnie Rain saw Leon for the first time. "He’s just amazing," she said, remembering that festival. ''He's probably the best combination singer-guitarist I've heard in years. I'd like to know where he gets his stuff. I'd also like to find out how old he is.

Objective and subjective are intertwined, as are fact and symbol. None of these photographs are haphazardly taken, with no concern for composition or formal pictorial problems; they are conscious products of good design. The relationship between foreground and background is often explored through the superimposition of a close-up upon a long-distance shot of the by Janice Simon Spectrum Arts Staff There is something very spiritual about a vast stretch of uncontaminated land, where nature's rhythms flow without interruption. A sense of mystery pervades the purity of the earth and the jarring juxtapositions of soft and hard, smooth and rough that confront one at every step. This ethereal spirit seems to be lacking in the man-made world; therefore it is no surprise that, during the exploration of the American West, photographers sought to capture this timeless spirit. What they caught is revealed in Era of Exploration: The Rise of Landscape Photography in the American West, 1860—85, now on exhibit at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery until landscape. This sense of depth is heightened even further by print techniques which make the background increasingly faint while the foreground images are extremely crisp and dear the use of atmospheric perspective. All of the photographs have a rich tactility; the photographer's eye (farefu'ly and lovingly surveys every change in texture and light. Vet this objectivity is not devoid of spirit, for a whole range of emotions, from classical rationality to heightened drama to stark reality, bombard the viewer. — April 27. A landscape consciousness arose in the mid- 1800's due to the increasing interest in natural history and the building of the transcontinental railroad linking Omaha to San Francisco. Photographers were hired by the railroad contractors to record the construction of these tracks of progress and ingenuity; spurred by landscape painters of the time, they pointed their cameras past the tracks to focus on the untouched earth. With the start of the gold rush, landscape photography increasingly headed further westward, Nevada and California being points of focus. HI i Unhuman beauty Carleton Watkins presents his audience with the quiet perfection of nature, untouched by man, and filled with spiritual beauty. A strong sense of the divine pervades his works, as is visible in "The Yosemite Valley from the Mariposa Trail." UUAB MUSIC COMMITTEE KRtSENTb Here, one lone, thin, tall tree extends from the top to the bottom of the picture plane compositionally uniting the photography and, more importantly, creating an image of the divine. Superimposed over a landscape of mountains and valleys, it is as if God were proudly looking over his creation. The viewer seems to be witnessing some mystical event in "Profile Rock, Echo Canyon," which places an immense craggy rock against a turbulent sky; a dialogue between contrasting natural forces reaches spiritual heights. In contrast to the quiet mysticism of Watkins is the picturesque Romanticism of Muybridge, who often juxtaposes man and his creations with the vastness of nature. "Shipping in Sitka Harbour, Alaska" reflects this, with its ships dwarfed by the immense stretch of water and sky. A similar juxtaposition reaches the point of tension-filled drama in the photographs of Jackson. In "Canyon of Rio las Animas," the low viewpoint forcing us to look up the side of the jagged rock creates an intense anticipation in the viewer as he notices the train struggling to make its way through the diff. The stark images of O'Sullivan deal with the mysterious forces of nature and the powerlessness of man in comparison to them. One photografJh captures an isolated horse and buggy amidst the soft sand dunes in Nevada, while another presents a pueblo overshadowed by the huge, powerful slab of rock from which it emerges. The force and weight of the stone is enhanced by the composition, which focuses in on the side of the rock; there is no sky for breathing room. Though large, this photography exhibit is very deserving of the public's attention. For not only is it excellently put together, but the images these photographers of the West have caught are a feast for the eyes and soul.

The program, to be conducted nationwide, was described by Patricia Howell, an RCC administrator and “unofficial coordinator” of Food Week here, as an attempt at “consciousness-raising about food and nutrition.” The program will dover international agriculture, nutrition and health, and alternate diets. The world food production crisis, international famine relief aid, misconceptions about the mutritional value of foods, and the monopoly within the food industry will be discussed. Waste and inefficiency in the average diet will also be examined. The most effective program here may be the “Fast Day” proposed for April 17. Reed Kellner, an RCC representative coordinating the event, said petitions have been circulated among students on board contracts, requesting them to relinquish all meals on that day. It was hoped that Food Service would donate the money saved to the American Freedom from Hunger Foundation. According to Mr. Kellner, 800 out of approximately 1500 students on food service signed the petitions. No permission However, Edward Doty, Vice-president for finance and management, stated he would not give Pood Service permission to donate money to any organization. * M Mr. Doty refused because, as he said, “some causes are good, some are more worthy than others, and some are bad and it is not the duty of the administration to decide which to support and which not to.” Don Hosie, Director of Food Service, added: “Food Service is not in the business of allowing students to be encouraged to miss meals. They need their nutrition.” He then referred to a memorandum Mr. Doty had sent his predecessor which stated: “Fasts for the support of social, religious or political movements are not to be allowed.” r "• GOOD FOOD RESTAURANT Hong Kong Chicken with vegetable.

New York's drug laws: harsh and ineffective Editor‘s note: The following is the first of a explaining the New York State drug laws. two part series by Mitchell E. Katz Staff Writer Spectrum Officials within the criminal justice system generally agree that the state’s narcotics laws are in need of change. Prosecutors and defense attorneys believe present statues are too inflexible. Their success in deterring drug trafficking has also been seriously questioned. It is now a year and a half since former Governor Nelson Rockefeller signed into law his stringent program of narcotics legislation. His program called for mandatory life sentences for all convicted hard narcotics pushers and addicts who commit violent crimes. There were no provisions for plea bargaining and no possibility of parole. Foreseeing an influx of drug cases due to the ban on plea bargaining, Mr. Rockefeller eventually proposed the creation of additional narcotics courts to be manned by 100 newly-appointed judges who would work solely on the drug cases. Heavy blow Mr. Rockefeller was presumably seeking to deliver a heavy blow to addicts, pushers and the “soft-headed judges” who let many convicts slip through the criminal justice system unpunished or lightly punished. The major criticism of his original proposals was that they failed to distinguish between major and minor traffickers. Someone convicted of street selling an ounce of a hard drug could receive the same mandatory life Page sixteen The Spectrum Friday, 4 April 1975 . . sentence as the narcotics racketeer who sells pounds of the it. As chairman of the Assembly Codes Committee, Rep. DiCarlo led a joint Codes Committee through a series of Mr. Rockefeller eventually announced his intentions state-wide hearings on the Governor’s narcotics package. of proposing the death sentence only for big-time drug traffickers, but never carried through on it. Proposals After receiving pressure from legislative leaders and After receiving volumes of testimony, the Committee various lobbying organizations, Mr. Rockefeller was forced returned to Albany to review and make recommendations to submit a modification of his original proposals. In April on the original drug proposals. 1973, he proposed a system of mandatory minimum But sometime after the Governor released his prison sentences,, a limited form of plea bargaining and a modified program, Rep. DiCarlo made the situation very system of “mandatory life sentences” that would allow sticky. He drew up his own drug proposals and offered parole but require lifetime supervision of the parolee. them as an alternative to those who opposed the Governor’s package yet wanted to tackle the drug issue in Three class felonies that pre-election year.

Amid Democratic charges of fraud and using the drag But despite Rep. DiCarlo’s efforts, the legislature issue for political reasons and opposition by every finally approved the Rockefeller proposals.

Though the figures from the survey have been printed, they are still unofficial. Because of the complicated nature of the figures, the SA Executive Committee is hoping to present the results along with an interpretation at Tuesday’s student assembly meeting. the results can be taken as fairly representative of the student body. Over 2100 of the nearly 13,000 undergraduates responded to the questionnaire. Asked to rank the six major areas in which Student Activities Fees are allocated, the students chose athletics a close fourth behind service organizations (CAC, NYPIRG, etc.), but well behind student services (The Spectrum, Birth Control Clinic, Record Co-op, etc.) and activities (movies, concerts, speakers, etc.). As expected, within athletics, the major spectator sports, basketball and hockey were ranked relatively high while fencing and golf were not considered very important. A major surprise was the relatively low ranking of baseball and wrestling, two of Buffalo’s five major sports and the high ranking of sports, swimming and tennis, both “minor” sports. Men’s intercollegiate athletics were ranked well below intramurals and recreation and nearly half of the students polled felt intramurals were very important. Women’s Intercollegiates, mainly on the strength of its basketball and swimming programs, showed well, but still trailed men’s athletics in importance.

Crazy, you say? Not so, says baseball coach Bill Monkarsh. “The southern trip doesn’t mean anything to the selection committee,” he remarked as his team prepared to open their 30-game northern schedule today at Seton Hall. “If we beat the New York teams, and can win at least 24 or 25 games up north, we can make the playoffs,” continued the optimistic Monkarsh. The key games are the ones with Seton Hall. The Pirates return everyone from last year’s District II champions, and are heavily favored to repeat in this year’s Eastern regional (combined Districts I and 11). The Bulls have encountered their usual weather problems in preparing for their remaining games. Since their return from Florida, the baseballers have been restricted to practicing on wood (Clark Hall) or asphalt (bubble) surfaces. “If you can’t get outside, it hurts,” remarked Monkarsh. Errors “Our fieldin'', wasn’t that bad down south,” he continued. One can only wonder what constitutes bad fielding, as the Bulls committed 33 errors to their opponents 9 in the 12 games. The bulk of the FIRST MEETING WILL BE APRIL 8th, FIRST CLASS STARTS APRIL 10th. ***************************** weather in Ithaca isn't any better than Buffalo. Baseball Contributing Editor Funding More than half the students polled felt there should be a change in the way athletics are funded. More than 20 percent said they favored a separate, voluntary athletic fee. One third favored using a fixed percent of the Student Activity fee fund for athletics, and the remainder said the present system was satisfactory. Apparently, football is not a dead issue on campus. Nearly half those questioned favored bringing back football at the club level. Twenty percent either didn’t reply or had no opinion. only get to pitch if there is a game. It seems the miscues came from the infield, mostly from the right side, where senior Jim Zadora (at third base after three years in the outfield) and sophomores Jack Kaminska and Duke Marzo combined for nearly half of the errors. Pitching, which was expected to be the bright spot for the Bulls, was, on the whole, poor. It was disappointment down south,” “the biggest commented Monkarsh. “The only bright spot was John Buszka.” Buszka was also the only winning pitcher on the Florida trip, and has been tabbed to start against Seton Hall this afternoon. No stopper The remainder of the Bulls pitching rotation is a toss-up, with Jim Niewczyk and Mike Dean likely to see action this weekend. “Niewczyk had a bad start, but then so did the rest of the pitchers,” said Monkarsh. “This was the first time down South that we’ve had a chance to win some games, but we lost a lot in the late innings because we didn’t have a stopper.” Unlike previous years, when Buffalo victories came on tight fielding and strong pitching, the Bulls will have to win the majority of their games by outslugging their opponents. Hitting, supposedly the weakest aspect of this year’s team, has come on strong. Particularly impressive was the slugging of designated hitter John Mineo, who hit .364 and knocked in nine runs while scoring ten himself. *********************************************** * LAST DAY TO VOTE FOR YOUR IRC OFFICERS.

My cousin is the only one I know who didn’t love baseball as a kid. Just between you and me, my cousin is a little weird. This is not to say that every kid who doesn’t like baseball is weird, but it helps. Some of the contributing factors are obvious. Baseball has been associated with Mom, apple pie and everything purely American. Most kids are raised on this kind of patriotism and baseball is part of it. and hockey. Baseball doesn’t have that problem. No other sport has baseball’s tradition. Four or five generations of children have been raised on the game by now. Every father must consider it his duty to teach his son how to hit and throw, somewhere between toilet training and the facts of life. The game has the flexibility to adapt to physical conditions as well as the mood of the players. There must be a dozen variations on the theme (games like kickball, softball, punchbaU, stoopball, curb ball, automatics and catch-a-fly-is-up) that substitute for the real thing when one or more elements is missing. Kids who want to play baseball always find a way. When I was young, we used to play on one of two fields. In one you could only hit to right field because a fence went through the left side. On the other field, it was a home run if you hit the ball past the “No Ball Playing” sign. People used to walk their dogs on that field. We didn’t care. Many have said the game is too slow. There is some truth to that. But far from being a detraction it is a virtue. Only baseball can produce excitement without an artificial clock related frenzy. The beauty of the game is that it stops long enough for the player and observer to truly appreciate and agonize over what is happening. An easy pace also allows the game to be played or watched, passively is you desire. All this doesn’t explain why the game grips the hearts of little boys and, in some cases never lets go. And I can’t explain that. All I know is that a new season starts next week and I can’t help but being a little emotional about that. Maybe I’m just a sentimental sap. I’ve got a fan’s excitement about two new superstars. Catfish Hunter and Bobby Bonds, who will play for my Yankees this year. I’ve got a social interest in the reaction to Cleveland’s black manager Timing is in baseball’s favor. Summer affords Frank Robinson. But more than that. I’ve got an the opportunity to play without distraction. School, eight year old in me somewhere screaming, “Let me that universal pain in the neck until one gets to out! Let me play! Where are the bats and balls.” college when the pain moves down, keeps getting in Sometimes I’d just love to let him out. the way of winter pursuits like football, basketball Hero worship, something that every kid needs, is also a big part of it. Baseball, more than any other medium, has perfected the promotion of clean cut someone kids can good old American heroes emulate with a bat or a pitcher’s glove and a ball. Other sports can do this but somehow it’s not the same. 1 can’t explain why it’s not the same. It’s just not. And if you grew up on baseball as I did you know that I’m right. - FRIDAY.

But Judge Stiller was not to be put off. “This is the last thing I’m gonna say to you,” he said, “If I have one more word from you. I’m gonna clear the whole area.” Judge Stiller then walked back up to courtroom number seven, which overlooked the demonstration on Franklin Street outside.

EXTRA v Campus tjJnor Attica defendant Dacajewiah thanked more that 200 enthusiastic supporters in Norton Hall’s Fillmore Room last night, but warned them not to provoke needless confrontations with police while demonstrating outside the courthouse today and (John Hill) tomorrow. He said the 500 demonstrators the courthouse yesterday suffered from a lack of leadership and organization,, and although the demonstration “was a beautiful thing to see, you cannot come down without any form of leadership and direction.” Dacajewiah was “really glad to see outside people [the courthouse) taking.a ftand,” but said the demonstrators were “just moving around” vainly attempting to listen to several people yelling different which instructions, resulted in disorganization and unnecessary friction with police. “It’s useless to have people beaten over the head [by police) because of a few people’s politics,” Dacajewiah asserted. at ‘Self-preservation’ By allowing a few people to “take things in their own hands,” the demonstrators became the “animals” that the police “expect us to be,” he said. But “we are human beings, not animals. The animals are hiding the blue shields,” he declared. Dacajewiah tried to make it clear that he was not advocating violence. But he quickly added that a law of “self-presepvation” existed that might have to be used in some circumstances, although to provoke bloodshed “is another Attica” and another ten years until the truth would be heard. To create an explosive situation is to give the police, the “man,” an excuse to start blowing heads off, he explained. Dacajewiah suggested that the police, like the demonstrators, are scared, although for different reasons. The police feel that threats to their authority are attacks on their manhood, he said, a fear which projects itself in the use of weapons, or “little pieces of steel.” “This is not a game. It’s a very touchy, dangerous situation,” he stressed. - ‘Their law’ Dacajewiah indicated that the police are unconcerned with “rights,” and described the law as generally “their law. We must get enough people to recognize what’s going on,” he said. Throughout his talk, which looked like a “scolding” to many of' his supporters, Dacajewiah repeatedly expressed appreciation for their concern. He said he “would feel very bad” if people were hurt in a disturbance outside the courthouse while he was inside. “I am not going to ask you to support me if I’m not with you,” he assured everyone. The situation yesterday could have erupted into violence, Dacajewiah indicated. “I don’t want to see people get hurt uselessly,” because “you can bail people out but not bring back lives.” The defendant said the massacre at Attica gave him a greater appreciation of life, and while he was “not putting down confrontation,” he does not want to see people getting hurt. Racist summation However, Dacajewiah told his Fillmore Room audience, which had swelled to almost 300, to “do what you feel,” whether or not the police agree. However, it must be done effectively under cohesive leadership, he said. But Dacajewiah reminded his supporters that “the Erie County Sheriffs are the same ones who went into Attica with the State Troopers.” He also lashed out at the news media, explaining that the media thrives on the sensationalism of the trial. News reporting distorts the facts, claimed, he because journalists “hear what they want to hear.” Dacajewiah termed the “sick” news media and hypocritical. “They’ll walk with you when you’re acquitted,” but are really in concert with the police, he said. the trial Describing summations, Dacajewiah said Defense William Attorney Kunstler had the jury “in tears” during his concluding remarks. However, he continued, the prosecution then concluded its own case, using the “most racist” arguments to “make us look like sick creatures to destroy us.” ...

Rivers simply did not see everything that Mr. Zimmer saw.” He also criticized Defense Attorney Ramsey Clark for leaving out the initial reaction of prosecution witness Tom Collins, who testified that Mr. Pernasilice had told him “I made sure a hack was dead.” With “apologies to the ladies,” Mr. A’Dala explained that Mr. sociologists” conducting Collins’ first reaction to the of investigations potential statement was, “Holy shit.” witnesses.

He criticized Mr. Kunstler for leaving out the “foundations of the argument, misleading” the jury and “taking away from the truth.” Raising his voice, he angrily discussed the tedious jury selection, where the defense “was packed with psychologists and Commentary Listening to words that hurt by Amy Dunkin Managing Editor Our ears are so often bombarded with political rhetoric and catchy slogans that we have stopped listening altogether. And because we have stopped listening, we have stopped hearing. Yet during the past few weeks, as the trial of Attica defendants Dacajewiah and Charlie Joe Pernasalice has approached its climax, the ears of students at the University have perked up. Rather than dismissing phrases like seriously. “Attica is all of us” and “Attica Mr. A’Dala discussed the means fight back” as emply “war testimony of correction officer cries,” some students began to Alton Tolbert who had admitted feel for the first time the true lying about his identification of significance of those words deep Dacajewiah to advance himself. down in their gut.

More important, they have largely been taken by Native have not totally lost the sense of Americans, Mr. A’Dala attacked outrage that awakens them to the the defense’s use of the phrase wrongs inflicted by American Native Americans as an “excuse” society. When studetns are not for explaining why Dacajewiah outraged, there is little hope for and Charlie Joe were charged with murder. Calling it “unforgivable” and .detracting from the honor of the Indian Cause, Mr. A’Dala asserted the defense used them because they had nothing else to work with. “On the behalf of the people of the state of New York, I ask you to find Charlie Joe Pernsalice guilty of attempted murder and John Hill guilty of the murder of William Quinn,” Mr. A’Dala concluded. Judge King will charge the jury this morning and the jury will its immediately begin deliberations. Doubts Correction Officer Donald Melvin had said he had “slight doubts” about his identification of Dacajewiah. Mr. A’Dala dismissed the doubts as minimal. Mr. A’Dala’s summation was interrupted many times by defense objections that he was incorrectly discussing facts in the record. The few times that the record was checked, the defense was found to be correct, Mr. Kunstler said. But Judge King reprimanded him for continually objecting, explaining that it was up to the jurors to decide the of A’Dala’s Mr. validity summation. Mr. A’Dala then defended the inaccurate testimony of former inmate Edward Zimmer who said he had seen Mr. Pernsalice hit Mr. Quinn once on the back. Medical testimony revealed that Mr. Quinn had no back wounds. r At one time in his testimony, Mr. Zimmer said the guard was struck by a “blow that travelled over the shoulders.” Mr. A’Dala argued that this meant the same thing as being hit over the head. He insisted that prosecution witnesses who had withheld information after the 1971 uprising had come forward after “soul searching.” Bobsey twins Explaining why prosecution witnesses Edward Zimmer and Melvin Rivers, who the defense had referred to as “the Bobsey Twins,” had not given the same story, the prosecutor said “Mr. change. For once they leave the University more progressive environment, they, like their parents, become too locked into the system to lash out against it. Among the groups that should be commended for their active role in supporting the Attica cause is the Student Association. In the past, SA has been reluctant to take a radical stance on any political issues, inside or outside the University. SA proved this week that if its leadership is willing to stand firm on an issue, a sizeable number of students are sure to follow suit. For whatever reason, having the name of Student Association behind a resolution to dismiss all the Attica charges against defendants and support a rally has put more muscle behind it. Strong student leadership has worked in the past, as we all know, and it is necessary if students are to be united in the future. Of course, SA only rounded out an effort that was begun last year by the University’s Attica Support Group. This group has worked long and hard to bring Attica close to the minds of all students while stumbling against another. one wall after Recognition of their efforts by the student body represents, at the very least, a vote of confidence for all that Attica stands for fighting to system restructure a which compels men to behave violently, and then punishes them for doing so. — But despite all the "consciousnesses” that have been raised recently, the fact remains that not enough people are convinced “Attica is all of us.” They simply cannot place Attica in a broader perspective, one that includes poverty, prejudice and oppression in its scope. One reason some people were not present at the demonstration was that they view Attica as the “cause of the week,” an issue that attracted students because it is the “popular” thing to support. As a result, they fear if an acquittal is handed down within the next week, many of the newly-born “activists” will quickly lose interest and return to their own secure niches. If this is in fact the case, perhaps many students failed to. understand what the name, Attica, represents. Even so, the fact that they showed up at a time of need is some indication that their consciences can be tapped, that they care when human beings are denied their basic rights. Let us hope, though, that the message of Attica is carried on long after the fates of Dacajewiah and Charlie Joe are sealed. If people haven’t taken the time to familiarize themselves with the facts, then others must resolve to do it for them. Commitment is the basis for action, and action, the stepping stone to change. We must not only speak at people. We must speak to them and make them hear.

He characterized Mr. the two defendants entered and Spear as “a man who has perjured began shouting, “The cops are himself.” Mr. Spear had denied clearing out the whole building. any knowledge about Mr. Quinn’s death for 28 months before They’re pushing them all out.” Judge King reprimanded changing his story without a Dacajewiah (but not Mr. stated reason, Mr. Kunstler told Pernasilice), warning him not to the jury. “make any comments about what’s going on outside.” He Lies, more lies He pointed out that Mr, Spear reminded the jury that the trial was taking place in the courtroom had lied on the witness stand and not in the demonstration when he said he had been outside, and asked the jurors if employed for six moth, since he they had been “interfered with or had really worked for only a intimidated” by anyone. week. The defense lawyer hinted that the prosecution may have Historical context had something to do with Mr. Mr. Kunstler objected to Judge Spear’s perjury, but protects itself King’s statement, claiming it by isolating the lies of a witness prejudiced the jury. “This is going from its case. “You can see why it is to be a long summation,” he then necessary.for Mr. A’Dala to give _ lectures to his witnesses about lying,” Mr. Kunstler said. “It looks like the state is clean, only the witness is lying.” The afternoon session began with Mr. Kunstler requesting a mistrial on the grounds that the jury had been prejudiced against the defendants because of Judge King’s comments that morning and the fact that jury members had to be escorted to lunch by armed policemen, persumably to be protected from supporters who had been waiting outside the packed courtroom. “You are not giving them a fair trial,” Mr. Kunstler declared. Judge King angrily dismissed the motion. “1 am fed up with your telling me 1 don’t have a conscience,” he told Mr. Kunstler. “No matter how many times you quote the Bible, I have just as much conscience as you,” the Judge said. What happens when jurors leave the courtroom “is not my problem,” Judge King added. Paroles granted Mr. Kunstler went on with his attack on the prosecution’s key witnesses, telling the court that they all received parole after agreeing to testify against the defendants. He described William Rivers as a man “who would do anything to stay out of jail.” Mr. Kunstler pointed to the fact that Mr. Rivers had admitted on the stand that he withheld incriminating information until his fourth interview with state investigators. Mr. Kunstler noted that William Rivers. Leland Spear and Edward Zimmer all had the same —Jensen Supporters of Attica defendants Dacajewiah and Charlie Joe Pernasilice milling around defense attorney William Kunstler Monday during a break in his summation. parole officer, an uncommon practice in New York State. But rather than blame Mr. Rivers for what he did, Mr. Kunstler asked the jury, “Can you blame him for wanting out?” The lawyer went on to describe prison as a place where “human beings move like Pavlov’s dogs to the sound of bells in prison.” Differing reasons Mr. Kunstler discussed the discrepancies between the testimony of Mr. Rivers and Edward Zimmer. Mr. Zimmer testified that he and Mr. Rivers had seen Dacajewiah hit Mr. Quinn, but there are contradictions in their versions of when they left Attica prison’s Time Square area the day of the uprising. Mr. Zimmer said they left after Dacajewiah allegedly hit Mr. Quinn, but Mr. Rivers testified that they remained in the area and saw Mr. Pernasilice strike the prison guard. Returning to the theme of parole, Mr. Kunstler said the defense’s key witness Edward Burquette came forth at the last minute even though it might endanger his parole. “Edward Burquette was a heroic person in this courtroom,” Mr. Kunstler asserted. “If any man was worthy of belief, it was Edward Burquette.” Except for a few minor technicalities, he said the prosecution had been unable to contest Mr. Burquette’s claims that he had spent almost the entire morning of Mr. Quinn’s death with Dacajewiah and did immediately — - —continued on page 2— Student politics Resolution supports dismissal of charges -Forrest Qloria PtUZOT) The Student Assembly passed without opposition Monday a resolution that puts Student Association (SA) on record as supporting the dismissal of all charges against Attica defendants Dacajewiah and Charlie Joe Pernasalice. The resolution also calls for cancellation of classes and renting of buses so students can attend a vigil outside the Erie County Courthouse. Sponsored by Gloria Pruzan, Richard Sokolow, Arlene Ferris, Dave Chavis, Mindy Lubber, Robert Cohen and Thom Lawrence, the resolution passed to loud applause in a crowded Haas Lounge after those present heard only one speaker and viewed a videotape presentation on the Attica Prison rebellion of 1971. A plan to reorganize the Speakers Bureau, which was also approved by the Assembly, proved more controversial. The plan replaced the single chairperson with a seven-person committee to pick speakers with the approval of the Executive Committee and the Assembly. Legalities Assembly member Jon Burgess objected to the proposal because he was convinced the measure, as originally stated, was unconstitutional. He reasoned that the original proposal, which would amend the Book of Rules of the new constitution, was invalid because that document could only be amended by the student body or by the Student Senate, the group that will replace the current Assembly in September. Since there is no senate, Mr. Burgess argued, any amendment “is completely invalid.” He carried his point and Bert Black amended the original resolution, changing it into a directive from the Student Assembly to the SA President to create such a committee, which is within her power under the current constitution. Speakers Bureau Chairman Stan Morrow lost a bid to table the whole motion until Sub-Board I, Inc. reported on the feasibility of a Sub-Board takeover of the Speakers Bureau. In other business, the Assembly elected Judi Young and Robert Cohen to serve as Assembly representatives to the Executive Committee. The Assembly also approved an $1100 expenditure from the Student Activities budget to bring consumer advocate Ralph Nader to this campus Sunday afternoon. , �Kunstler summation... of education Fruits Businesses, health careers successfully attract seniors hospital administration and public Editor's note: The following is the first of a two part administration, administration series on the employment situation for graduating seniors Management types Management is recommended for people who want to deal with others, have good organizational skills, want to work and serve in the public, hospital health service sectors, or want to work in seniors are and graduating As May approaches, finding business,” Mr. Hopkins said. growing more uneasy about the prospects of of the applicants to the School of Most market. today’s tight job employment in who at Cornell start out with liberal arts Management At least 12 percent of the students degrees.

State workers represented by CSEA have been negotiating with the state since January 1st. Areas of disagreement include wages, increments (how much of a raise each employee would get with each additional year on the job), setting up an agency shop (where non-CSEA members would be required to pay dues to CSEA since it represents them in bargaining, whether or not they join), and improvements in medical insurance.

On that day, 1500 prisoners of all races and nationalities took over D yard and D block at Attica prison, held guards hostage for protection, elected their own representative governing body, and put forward a petition demanding to be treated like human beings. A guard injured in the rebellion died oq September 11, and the State authorities and mass-media spread the rumor that the prisoners had slashed the throats of all the guards who had died. Having whipped up hysteria among the public, the State of New York answered the prisoners’ demands. Thousands of heavily armed National Guardsmen, State police, and Corrections Officers assaulted the prison on September 11, killing 39 men, including 10 State-employed guards, and wounding some 200 others in the bloodiest one-day slaughter in America since the Indian massacres of the late 19th century. Travesty of justice The Official Report of the New York State Special Commission on Attica has concluded that none of the guards’ throats was slashed. After the prison had been retaken, selected prisoners, whe were considered leaders, were assassinated by the State authorities. The total dead stood at 43. Then, on September 1, 1973, a special Grand Jury handed down indiectments charging 61 prisoners with murder and other felony charges, while not one State official, guardsman or policeman was charged with anything. This is itself is a complete travesty of justide. But to really understand Attica, one must view it it a broader context. Economic deprivation First, we must ask, “Who are the prisoners?” Many are there for stealing, and some for more serious crimes. But stealing in a society that has deprived one of job skills, adequate education, decent living conditions, and most importantly, adequately paying jobs, is merely an act of survival. Anyone familiar with the history of our country knows that unemployment has always existed, and that various groups, races and nationalities have always been deprived of equal opportunities. The reason for this is quite apparent. The natural functioning of our nation’s economic system, capitalism, is for the privately-owned factories, banks, and other businesses to increase their profits, or be bought out by those who do. One way to do this is to keep wages low, and maintain in society a constant group of unemployed persons who live so precariously they can be called on to take the jobs of better-paid workers. ‘Divide-and-conquer’ In addition, when these unemployed become desperate enough, they will be forced to steal to live, and will have become dehumanized enough, because of their long mistreatment, to behave in other anti-social ways. The result is that the people are divided and antagonistic to one another, weakening their opposition to the exploiting ruling forces. This “divide and conquer” strategy has been used by ruling classes since the beginning of class-divided society. are said to be ignorant. Deprived of jobs, they are said to be lazy. Without any money, they are forced to live in poverty. The ideology of racism and its institutional practice compliment one another in a self-fulfilling prophecy. The ideology of racism developed in colonial America around the middle and end of the 17th century. Indentured servants, both black and white, were leaving their masters’ lands after their period of compulsory service expired. The southern plantation owners especially wanted a way to insure a source of permanent cheap labor. While slavery was their answer, they couldn’t very easily ensalve all the workers, so they singled out the Africans. They one small group needed a way to justify this in the eyes of the public, so they began saying that dark-skinned people were inherently inferior, and needed a master to guide them in life. requirements. Attica are poor, where Slavery is an economic institution, which can be supported by the ideology of racism in certain situations, but is not always necessary. In ancient Greece, for example, slaves were light-skinned, just like not. — Today, the ideology of racism plays an important role in keeping the people divided. In the United States, the essence of racism is that dark-skinned people. Of course, biologests disproved this theory long ago, and history has recorded the contributions of people of all colors, in all fields of endeavor. Yet, this myth is perpetuated by the long and continual deprivation of dark-skinned people in the United States and elsewhere, so that their lack of training can be used against them. Racism Deprived of education and culture, they crime in Attica, is the crime of depriving American citizens of good and adequate educations; of job training and adequate paying jobs; of decent living conditions; and of adequate health and cultural their masters. Within this context, it is nor hard to see why the majority of prisoners in Attica were and still are dark-skinned. The real With Women’s Studies College (WSC) has fared well, despite the conditional charter granted by President Robert Ketter last January. WSC, along with Clifford Furnas CoUege, were the only colleges recommended for oonditional chartering by the CoUeges Chartering Committee. The charter’s conditions, which sparked much opposition by WSC members, caUed for the CoDege to clearly indicate when the terms “woman” and “women” are used genetically and when they are used to exclude men. The charter also requires that the College “expressly adopt the principles of academic freedom and equality of access to courses to which the University is committed,” a condition added by the Chartering Committee in response to complaints that men were excluded from some courses. Additionally, the charter mandates a review of the College after 18 months to determine whether WSC has complied with it’s requirements. The college is currently trying to clarify use of the term “woman.” WSC members said the clarification would not make a significant difference in the College’s operation, however. Many people had the impression that men were excluded from WSC courses because “people generalized that there are no men in Women's Studies,” according to WSC member Dene Krzystek. Some exclusionary courses are still allowed to exist under the charter, as long as they constitute a small part of the total number of classes in the College and are “educationally valid” according to a statement issued January 3 by Dr. Ketter. Additionally, these courses would be open to grievances against their exclusionary policies. Walter Kunz, associate Dean of the Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) said in a letter on March 27 that DUE will review the “aim and justification” of all courses that exclude men. rational construction of the benefits, and no one would have a need to steal. Real criminals Sick and anti-social people would be treated in hospitals, not in repressive prisons, subject to the beatings of certain sadistic guards. No, the real criminals in the Attica case are the monopoly capitalists, and their servants in government who perpetuate a system where some are wealthy and others some are idle while others overworked, and where some are afforded opportunities while others are are The unknown prisoners at Attica were propelled onto the center stage of history for five days in September, and it is the thought of those desperate but heroic men who will live on in the hearts of compassionate people everywhere. Male exclusion under explanation in by Fredda Cohen Spectrum Staff Writer the society, there would be no unemployment, since life can constantly be improved. With the rational construction of society, all people would make a contribution to the advancement of society, all would enjoy A WSC spokesperson said men who are excluded from the courses are directed to other courses in the College, or to other colleges that teach related courses, such as College F’s study of sexism. If both alternatives are unsatisfactory, “independent study” will usually be offered by WSC, the spokesperson added. Self help One course that excluded males was the Self-Help course, which was not offered this semester. It is not known if the course was cancelled because of the flack Women’s Studies received. In the meantime, the instructors for the course, a collective consisting of community members, will offer workshops sometime in the near future. The workshops will be based on the programs offered at the Women’s Center on Franklin Street in downtown Buffalo, and will be open to all women. Women in Contemporary Society (WS/213) also excludes men. The course currently has nine sections, all of which are overcrowded. One instructor claimed the class has been very successful for the past ten years under this policy. Each semester, WS/213 is reviewed, and if necessary, revised by staff members. Students also evaluate all courses in WSC Discussing the goals of the College, Ms. Krzystek said that “Generally, our purpose is to try to understand the position of women in society in all aspects of the roles that women play, and to improve that position. We try to increase our understanding of sexism in relation to the oppression of other people,” she added. On International Women’s Day, a few months ago, WSC led a campus celebration, and spoke about the history of International Women’s Day. Flo Kennedy, a feminist lawyer, spoke on campus. Information tables also were set up by WSC. Additionally, the College participated in a celebration downtown, including various workshops such as one dealing with women in the home and types of domestic work. WSC members give lectures at local high schools and colleges, and work with other women’s groups in the Buffalo community. WSC also sponsors speakers like Tillie Olsen, who is a feminist writer, scheduled to speak here April 29. WSC has been researching, evaluating and initiating new courses.

Haldeman, CBS News has raised highly complex moral, philosohpical and practical issues and ignited a blazing controversy within the forest of crusading journalists. “CBS, which is forever demanding equal rights under the First Amendment, is now introducing the unequal principal that the news belongs to the outfit with the biggest bankroll,” charged New York Times Executive Editor James Rcston in a recent column. Bankroll journalism could have other, equally disasterous consequences. There is a very real danger that a source will embellish his story to justify the money he’s being paid. Some people might begin inventing news to make money. Even the most insightful reporter might experience difficulty distinguishing these journalistic bankrobbers from their truthful counterparts. And once a journalist has paid for news, he may be reluctant to carefully check the accuracy of the information gleaned from the paid source. — Corrupting influence Moreover, now that people are getting paid for interviews, others who previously talked for free will begin demanding payments for information. CBS News has already paid G. Gordon Liddy and H.R. Haldeman for interviews, why should John Ehrlichman or Leon Jaworski give free interviews? The public perception of the media is undoubtedly affected by paid-for news. Indeed, it was the media that made us acutely aware of the corrupting influence that money has on otherwise honest people. The bankroll journalism controversy has raised another very disturbing issue. Specifically, CBS’s response to questions about the propriety of paid-for news has been anything but candid. Current news figure The CBS News policy manual states that “hard” news cannot be paid for. Nevertheless, CBS News President Richard Salant has justified the payment to Haldeman on the grounds that the interview was merely a memoir, and not hard news. Perhaps a distinction between hard news and memoir is valid in the context of an interview with a former president as years after his presidential term has expired when CBS paid Lyndon Johnson for an interview after LBJ left the White House. But H.R. Haldeman is still very much a current news figure. He is presently appealling his criminal conviction. Furthermore, Mike Wallace pursued current news topics in the first segment of the interview broadcast last Sunday. Wallace asked Haldeman if Nixon ever ordered him to get rid of the taping system. Haldeman said no. However, one of Wallace’s sources, who recently saw Nixon and Ron Ziegler at San Clemente, said Nixon had ordered Haldeman to get rid of the taping system years before Watergate. When Haldeman denied this allegation Wallace suggested that Haldeman was being set up to take the fall for the infamous tapes. In short, Mr. Wallace was actively pursuing a current news story, not merely presenting a memoir of the Nixon years. - Nevertheless, there may be valid reasons why the CBS decision was justified, despite the negative ramifications of paid-for news. Mr. Haldeman may not have agreed to be interviewed without payment. Because of his central role in the Watergate scandal, $25,000 may be a small price to pay for learning more about the why of Watergate. We may also assume that G. Gordon Liddy would not have agreed to be interviewed on a recent edition of 60 Minutes without the reported $10,000 payment he received. Hopefully, the Liddy interview will have some prophylactic effect on our future politicians who watched this mysterious macho figure tell Wallace: “Michael, Watergate was like brushing your teeth.” Vallace quiet CBS News and Wallace, however, have not yet publicly discussed paid-for news. Mr. Wallace did not even expressly tell us that either the Liddy or Haldeman interview had been paid for by CBS. This critical omission was surprising for several reasons. Wallace is a well-respected journalist with a reputation for asking all the tough questions and demanding answers. In the past, he has been one of —A EM the few journalists to seriously inquire into questionable media practices. For instance, after the Washington Post had secretly questioned the Watergate grand jurors, Wallace explored the moral and legal elements with Washington Post Editor Ben Bradlee. And just a few weeks ago, Wallace devoted a portion of his 60 Minutes to discussing whether journalists should investigate the private lives of public figures. Moreover, the paid-for news issue has sparked a great deal of controversy in the national press during the last two weeks. The central questions now become: Why didn’t Mike Wallace tell his viewing audience that Liddy and Haldeman were being paid for the interviews? And why didn’t Wallace discuss the important questions that have been raised about paid-for news? Page four Tfce Spectrum Wednesday, 2 April 1975 . t 1 asked the Marines for interviews.

Mr. Zellman said that his experience with IRC qualified him for the Presidency. “IRC has been dying for years because it has lost the faith of the students,” he emphasized, adding that “the problems of last year have not been solved.” “I want to re-establish respect for the IRC,” he said. Mr, Zellman’s platform includes a plan to decentralize IRC and increase the individual Area Councils’ budgets, which would insure better distribution of activities, he said. The three Area Councils are smaller IRC-affiliated bodies, located at Ellicott, Governors, and the Main Street dorms. Mr. Zellman’s platform also calls for an improvement in dormitory living without any rent increases, a guarantee that law students get “dead-end” suites, and that Food Service “surpass” minimum federal nutrition guidelines. “There is no reason why students must settle for any one [main course] option, feeling that they have not received their money’s worth,” he said.

It $15 million its first year, $20 of the adds an agency to regulate simply $25 second, the and million by Joseph P. Esposito City Editor Legislation to create a federal Agency for Consumer Advocacy has passed, the Senate Government Operations Committee by a vote of 11 to one and is expected to go the full Senate for to consideration by the end of April. The bill, introduced by Senator Abraham Ribicoff (D., Conn.), would establish an independent, nonregulatory agency to represent consumer interests in court and before regulatory agencies like the Civil Aeronautics Board, Interstate Commerce Commission and Federal Maritime Commission. Senator Ribicoff has suggested that main targets for the Agency might include price-fixing and governmental regulations which result in wasteful spending. The bill, which has 43 co-sponsors, is “fundamentally the same as last year’s proposal,” explained Stuart M. Statler, chief counsel minority of one of the government operations subcommittees. The 1974 version fell victim to a filibuster led by Senators James B. Allen (D., Ala.) and the now-retired Sam J. Ervin, Jr. '(D., North Carolina). Proponents of the Consumer Protection Agency, by only one vote, did not succeed in breaking the filibuster. Filibuster rule change Mr. Statler believes a filibuster is less likely this year because of the recent reform which allows debate to be closed by a three-fifths vote of the Senate. Mr. Statler called the proposed body “strictly an advocacy agency which will have the use of the host agency’s subpoena power.” The Agency for Consumer Advocacy would have a budget of other existing regulatory agencies when instead the present agencies should be made to work.” Senator James Buckley (RC-N.Y.) has indicated he will vote against the bill and “will talk against it” on the Senate floor. Tim Lanigan, the Senator’s press aide, said Mr. Buckley views the agency as “just another extravagant waste of taxpayer’s money. It’s just adding another “Excellent chance” agency which won’t do the job,’ Mr. Statler noted that the Mr. Lanigan believes. The state’s White House position on the bill junior senator feels the advocacy no indication agency is “too heavy-handed an “is unclear whatsoever,” but pointed out that approach” and considers the New York’s senior Senator, “consumee himself the best Republican Jacob Javits, supports judge,” he continued. the legislation.

The Chief Counsel estimated that it would employ 500 people, including 300 professionals (primarily attorneys as well as some economists and technical experts). “The Agency can be involved in either informal activities, such as letter-writing, or formal procedures” on behalf of the consumer, he added. — CARNIVAL FOR WORLD HUNGER We need groups, clubs, organizations, or individuals to set-up and monitor any kind of carnival game for the Carnival For World Hunger.

The evacuation followed the weekend capture by North Vietnamese forces of South Vietnam’s second largest city, and the Thieu government’s last northern stronghold. A Saigon military official called the loss of DaNang “the single biggest military defeat for South Vietnam in the last 20 years.” The city, with one million refugees and one hundred thousand government troops within its limits, fell to the Communists early Sunday. DaNang. which served as headquarters for the U.S. Marines during the American involvement in Vietnam, is reportedly in a state of chaos.

All are Invited Communist forces. President Ford announced Saturday night prior to the capture of DaNang that American transport vessels and contract ships have been directed to help the evacuation of refugees from coastal areas around DaNang. “Our vessels will not enter the combat areas or participate in any hostilities,” said Presidential Press Secretary Ron Nessen. The ships will be positioned some distance from the coast, probably out of range of North Vietnamese guns. A Provisional Revolutionary Government spokesman said the U.S. has provided warplanes to the Saigon government for use in forcibly evacuating hundreds of thousands of DaNang residents to the south. The question of U.S. participation in the evacuation operation, American officials maintained before the fall of DaNang. implies that President Ford may eventually have to decide whether to use U.S. troops for protection and order during the withdrawal of South Vietnamese refugees and soldiers. The Viet Cong have accused the United States of a “deceptive trick” in organizing the sealift. A Viet Cong spokesman said Monday that no foreign ships would be permitted to enter DaNang coastal waters without prior clearance from the Communists. Britain, Australia and several American allies have promised ships to assist in the evacuation. Officials have estimated that 30,000 to 50,000 Vietnamese have been taken out of DaNang since Thursday. Some 6000 were evacuated by the U.S. Navy cargo ship, the USS Andrew Miller. The loss of DaNang has been characterized as a severe blow to “IT’S A SONY” The fall line dictation system designed for use with the standard cassette. The full line with electronic indexing.

The Saigon government is in disarray, the military is in breakdown, and there have been reports of attempted and planned coups against the Thieu regime. Nguyen Cao Ky, former vice president under Thieu. called last week for a new government to replace the current Saigon leadership. In Cambodia, meanwhile. President Lon Nol was expected to leave Phnom Penh yesterday, accompanied by his immediate family, two generals and their families, a former information minister and Lon Nol’s personal physician. The party will briefly visit Bangkok, Thailand before traveling to Jakarta, Indonesia and eventually Hawaii, where Lon Nol will reportedly seek medical treatment. He suffers from paralysis on one side, the result of a 1971 stroke. The Cambodian president’s departure, which was not announced to the nation’s people as of Monday, has prompted speculation that it may be a preliminary move to initiate negotiations with the Khmer Rouge insurgents who have refused to talk with the Lon Nol regime. Premier Long Boret will travel to Jakarta with the group, but government officials maintain he will return to Phnom Penh shortly thereafter. However, both Long Boret and Lon Nol are among those leaders whose deaths the insurgents have demanded. Neither official has indicated that he will resign once out of Cambodia.

Its own economy mind you, over which it does have certain forms of control. And it is not exactly doing the job with incredible precision. It is, in fact, wandering about being somewhat irritable about the whole thing with many internal squabbles abour recession versus inflation and whether the prime interest rate should go up or down. Given the reality of this being a complex issue, and one that is, indeed, difficult to control, there exists a series of questions to which I can see no clear answer. If we accept our own economy as something we have great difficulty in even understanding the current President’s second grade level of economic theorizing making it fairly clear he then where in hell did has trouble with it anyway that wars are a simple idea arise the bright ,f- Whether It be ft«i ieihpathy or identification, it that I am basically a sympathetic soul.

Only last week we were being bombarded by reams of propoganda about Cambodia. You recall, if we gave the Cambodians $222. million, it would get them through to the rainy season. When the rains came everybody would sit down and negotiate and a blood bath would be avoided. Which seems to be an essentially worthwhile argument, as long as we don’t ask how many people will die under the blood bath as opposed to how many die from rockets, starvation, etc. over the next two months of conflict. But that is a separate issue. The thing that seems shocking by its suddenness, is the series of reversals that has occurred in'Vietnam. After all the money, time and lives, it appears that there never was much ’seems ■ — - The , proposition? Because there does seem to be a bias in this direction, that wars or police action, or military grump assistance programs, or advisors, or whatever else you wish to label that particular skunk cabbage, are simple exercises of political-military-economic power. The reality of how accurate this assessment is, clearly lacks a great deal or at least the way our government has been behaving indicates a horrendous misperception of reality. If we can’t even figure out what to do with our own economy, how can we possibly hope to keep track of all the variables possible in even a relatively small war? There is only one answer: we can’t. The concept of fighting small strategic wars is clearly morally suspect. But trying to get this across to Henry and Gerald seems hopeless. Suppose we, therefore, try to point out the fact that it doesn’t work. “It is not like a football game. There are many more people on each side. They use guns. Guns kill including those who would be spectators. people Remember how hard it was to remember which man to block on a running play? Multiply that confusion by several million and think about it.” No, it won’t work. There aren’t enough syllables for Henry, and too many for Gerry. And nobody else seems to be really interested. With the exception of the little club of former commanders of that particular dirty stupid war, who came stumbling out into the sunshine, blinking and crying for more’aid, more bombs, more bodies. And to whom the government seems to listen with frightening regularity. Perhaps it isn’t surprising. If Cambodia and South Vietnam both collapse, we will not have a war on. There will be no place to go to listen to the sounds and see the sights of the real thing quite as easily. Perhaps there should be a reservation in the desert somewhere. Those military types who can’t do without a little blood and guts can choose up sides and go play war once a month. With each other, no troops involved. And a cheery rest of the week to you too.

Ford and Kissinger went on down the road believing their own propaganda and it led them astray. The issue was supposed to be one of freedom. The images were essentially that of the South Vietnamese fighting voluntarily to protect their precious land and freedom against the unwilling conscripts from the North. At last event the unwilling conscripts were way ahead. Something that was mentioned in several of the dispatches read was the behavior of many of the South Vietnamese officers who disappeared from their unit, leaving them without leadership at a crucial time. My suspicion is that there probably isn’t a whole lost of difference between the men in one army and the men in the other. The rank and file tend to have pretty much the same problems and same compliants. The difference may well come from the officers. Much has been made of those who defected from North to South. But it is hard for me to conceive of the North Vietnamese falling to pieces the way the situation in the northern provinces of South Vietnam collapsed in the last few days. Washington believed itself, ever a dangerous thing for a political entity to do. The ability to set up, or at the least maintain, a dictator to defend freedom has been tried again. It seems to have failed again, badly. Who knows what the outcome would have been given a different script. Perhaps much different fallen sooner or much stronger, accommodation or greater bloodshed perhaps the same.

Two hours later, Speaker’s Chairman Dan Bureau Tommorrow was found lying in Norton Union with two black eyes and a bloody lip, because, as Mr. Tomorrow himself explained last night to about 10,000 students who filled Buffalo Memorial Auditorium, “I blew it again.” Mr. Tomorrow is currently on a speaking tour to promote his new book, a first-hand account of his year as Speaker's Bureau Chairman entitled What Do I Do Now? a sure bet to cancel,” and “wait until two minutes before the program begins” before informing students of a cancellation. Throughout his speech, the 21-year-old senior drew parallels between the problems he had as Speaker’s Bureau chairman and those that faced Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War. “Lincoln and 1,” he explained, "are united by the same oppression that strings all fools together nurdiness.” Lincoln was ostracized for opposing slavery, criticized for provoking the Civil War and attacked for cancelling programs that would have stimulated the economy,” Mr. Tomorrow declared. — Dan gets cancelled too In Buffalo, New York, more than 100 years later, he want on, “something else got cancelled my entire speaker's program for 1974-74.” Roaring with indignation, Mr. Tomorrow recounted how one by one, each of his programs went out the window. - Organization important He explained that there are two basic rules to follow when trying to organize an effective program of speakers: line up 10 alternates, “since the first nine are Kurt Hoemmel, the grandson of Adolph Hitler, was scheduled to speak here on October 5, but cancelled at the last second after hearing rumors that members of the Jewish Student Union were planning a demonstration.

Kennedy. Mr. Colby said the accusation was “preposterous” because “my men could not find their way around any American city, and are ignorant of its finer clothing stores as well.” The allegation stems from the private investigation of (“Fearless”’ Fred Ford, a Tampa motel owner, who revealed the plot after many hours of interviewing popple who were at the scene of the November 1963 shooting in Dallas. Besides the conspiracy theory, Mr. Ford has also come up with the once-hushed “Tank Theory,” and the “Johnson-Pony Theory.” Should the new revelations prove true, the case and coffin of former President Kennedy would be open again. “Lord, they shot poor Lee Harvey down” Mr. Ford said he became interested in the Kennedy shooting after listening to the comedy album, “The First Family” in late 1969, He found that by playing certain cuts backwards, the album elicited certain clues to how the assassination occurred. “On one cut, you can actually hear the motorcade turning the corner, while John asks Jackie for an aspirin. After a few moments, there are some loud pops, and the motorcade suddenly picks up speed. Jackie then moves from her seat and pulls the secret service man onto the car while exclaiming, i think there’s some aspirin in the trunk’.” Lee Harvey Oswald is apparently absolved from his role of the murderer. The album reveals that Oswald was snoring soundly in bed when secret service agents broke into the room and brought him downtown for questioning. Oswald was a good friend of his eventual executor. Jack Ruby, who fired the weapon under the belief that it would release a bouquet of paper mache flowers. “The bullet was a complete surprise to the both of them, but Oswald took it good naturedly,” said Mr. Ford. “It’s strange though,” he continued. “The aobum was made before the assassination. It’s entirely possible that these chancingly discernible noises were Fred Ford, ex-Tampa motel owner, demonstrates the 'Tank Theory" that he claims was used in the unintentional. But going.” it got me The Grassy Noel Mr. Ford then traveled to Dallas to interview the eyewitnesses to the shooting. It was easy enough to set up the appointments but usually Mr. Ford met up with the same results; the interviewee would mysteriously die. One woman fell under a steam roller in her living room. Another witness drove his car off the wing of a 747. “One guy’s face was found buried in a bowl of chili. The guy behind the counter Cold me the chili was ‘murder’ without crackers,” Mr. Ford declared. All in all, all 36 witnesses met with some form of death or another. Then, on Christmas day, conspiracy to murder President John F. Kennedy "It blended in good with grassy knoll," he said. in 1974, Mr. Ford managed to reach the final witness before he expired on the very grassy area that might have been a sniper point. “The guy told me a lot in his last dying breaths,” said Mr. Ford, “including some of the best cat-houses in Dallas.” It was after that, that Mr. Ford brought the information to the public’s attention. Mind over brain matter “That guy Ford is a nut!” proclaimed Mr. Colby who gave up his Monday golf game to hear Mr. Ford’s testimony. According to the report, “75 to 80” CIA men fired at the President’s motorcade at precisely the same time “which gave the impression of three or four bullets.” Trained in Cairo, the sharpshooters were assured of at least one bullet finding its mark. Also, the fact that parts of Kennedy’s head were found on the trunk of the motorcade lends truth to the theory that at least one shot did not come from behind. ‘The secret service agent who jumped onto the car was actually not a government agent. We now have conclusive proof that his real name is Harold Pressberg, a professional souvineer collector. His next biggest prize is a tooth from the Lindberg baby,” asserted Mr. Ford. Mr. Ford then pointed to a list of names of “well-dressed” men that boarded a Greyhound Bus to Alaska where they assumed different identities for 12 years. —continued on page 14 Wednesday, 2 April 1975 .

You’re a sick bastard’.” Another source, who called herself “Deep Though,” says she has seen Mr. Regenbogen typing at a desk in The Spectrum office on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Redhead I. Dead, Managing Editor of The Spectrum, ’ confirmed this week that the paper had recently hired a new campus editor who was cross-eyed, bowlegged, jaundiced, smelly, knockneed, slightly retarded, attributes which make him a solid candidate for SA. This description also confirmed speculation that it was Mr. Regenbogen. Multiple hats Despite these physical drawbacks, many of the younger female staff writers on The Spectrum admit to having “the hots” for their new campus editor. “Suave,” “a real man,” “debonair,” “intellectual,” “a killer in bed,” “a great tongue kisser,” are just a few of the adjectives that women have been directed towards Mr. Regenbogen. As one coed put it, when asked why she found him so attractive, “He’s got the longest cigar in the world.” In spite of this adoration, there are others who have reported observing a “different side” to Mr. Regenbogen. Richard Korperson, Mitch’s co-Editor, gave this description of how he had discovered him late one night a few weeks ago: “I walked into the office. Except for the light in Larry’s office, the place was deserted. 1 tip toed over and saw Mitchell sitting behind the Editor-in-chief’s desk. He was leaning back on the swivel chair with both legs on the table and began giving out orders, even though no one was around. “All of a sudden he ..potted me and began assigning stories to me. “When 1 asked him why he was calling members of the administration and hanging up on them, he came over and punched me in the stomach. “He was naked below the waist, and looked embarrassed.” And just the other day, Mr. Regenbogen was observed in a drunken frenzy tearing a towel dispenser off the wall at a local bar after a waitress there told him to “eat out somewhere else.” Mr. Regenbogen had arrived there around 1 a m. with his best friend, local magician Bob Zalien. When Undergraduate Dean Charles Zebert reported that when he telephoned Mrs. Regenbogen last week to obtain some background information about her son, she did not seem that concerned. “Why should I care,” Mrs. Regenbogen told Dr. Zebert. “My son is a sick bastard.” Jeffersoning Ketta mounts Bemie’s post by Mel C. Icculoc Norton Hack President Robert Ketta named Thomas Jefferson Vice President for Academic Affairs Monday. Mr. Jefferson takes over the post left vacant since after Bernard Greenbaum resigned last summer A native of Virginia, Mr. Jefferson attended the College of William and Mary and studied law under George Wythe. Educated as a lawyer and political scientist specializing in early American political thought, Mr. Jefferson has published The Declaration of Independence and A Summary View of the Rights of British America, both considered seminal works in the field. Mr. Jefferson’s knowledge of politics is not simply academic, however. He served in the Virginia legislature and is best remembered there for his sponsorship of the Act for Establishing Religious Freedom in his state. But Mr. Jefferson is also a man of wide-ranging intellectual interests. The son of a surveyor, he has a keen interest in agriculture. He is an accomplished amateur architect and designed his own home, Monticello. Mr. Jefferson has also compiled a dictionary of native American languages and considers himself a “respectable” violinist. Dr. Ketta praised his new appointment, calling This waste of space was, as usual, paid for by mandatory student fees The University Union Activities Board is pleased to announce the return of famed ventriloquist Oscar Myers to the U.B. campus, April 4, S and 6.

Mr. Jefferson; “a man of vast learning who has a grasp of practical reality.” When The Septcrum asked if Mr. Jefferson, who has not held an academic post for a number of years, could handle the complexities of the Vice Presidency, Dr. Ketta said Mr. Jefferson has had “considerable administrative experience,” but he declined to elaborate. Though it was not specifically in academic administration, Dr. Ketta went on, he had “every confidence” that Mr. Jefferson was qualified. Reached by The Septcrum at his Virginia farm, Mr. Jefferson said he was honored to be selected: “When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary to return to academic life, I hope I will justify the confidence Dr. Ketta has shown in me thus far.” Mr. Jefferson said he was a great believer in public higher education and welcomed the opportunity to be involved in something so dear to his heart. He said he did not plan to teach in his first year since it would take him a while to orient himself to his new position. He expressed hope, however, that he would be able to teach a course each semester thereafter. Mr. Jefferson was selected over 133 other candidates for the position.

There’s nothing going through that pipe but the blood of a dead man,” claimed Mr. Ford. Mr. Colby countered, “This guy is a melodramatic fruitcake!” Tanks a lot Mr. Ford then took the conference outside where he demonstrated the long supressed “Tank Theory.” Aiming the Italian M-18 rifle, used at most Roman shooting gallerys, a huge armored personnel carrier drove up from behind and parked near the kneeling Ford. The moment Mr. Ford pulled a trigger, the tank discharged a bomb shell that Mr. Ford said was used as a “diversionary tactic.” “The shell is probably still lodged in the glove compartment of the motorcade,” he maintained. Also, there have been some questions raised as to whether former President Johnson was involved in the conspiracy. Mr. Ford then went on to explain the “Johnson-Pony Theory”: “Johnson’s car was some distance behind Kennedy’s prior the assassination. If Mr. Johnson was in on the conspiracy, then he must have realized that the chance of a bullet going awry was a distinct possibility. to With this in mind, Johnson indiscreetly opened the back door and ran to a nearby doorway where his favorite palomino, 'Mr. Ed,’ was waiting. Johnson hopped onto the pony and rode the horse past the parade of cars with a ten-gallon hat pulled over his head. Safely out of the range of danger, the horse pulled up short and collapsed with a broken leg. Mr. Johnson, an old believer of the domino theory, believed that if the horse fell, he would be the next to go. Johnson pulled out a revolver to shoot the pony, but, unfortunately, Officer J.D. Tippit got in the way of the bullet. Mr. Johnson then assumed the Presidency a short time later on the Presidential carrier with Mrs. Kennedy looking on. She noticed some “foul-smelling matter” on LBJ’s shoes but did not report this to police officials. shortTAKES Blood on the Run Bob and Pattie Dylan team up for an album that’s sure to get your hemoglobin bubbling.

Rating: “Stone Free (and Dead).” Guy Young, A Scheming Sister, (Beeline, $1.95) The moral of A Scheming Sister is, I guess, that the family that plays together stays together. Mr. Young’s premier effort for Beeline, a small publishing house specializing in literature “For Mature Readers,” is the story of nineteen-year-old Liz Reynolds, who, caught by her mother in the act of incestuous intercourse with her father, returns from her banishment to an unnamed college in Boston (a friend of mine at Harvard assures me the fictitious Ms. Reynold’s sexual habits give her away as a Radcliffe student) and tries to unite the broken family through her sexual generosity. This reviewer had been out of touch with the adult book scene and was mildly surprised to see that incest is now such a common theme in the literature. There are in A Scheming Sister's 188 pages of 23 basic sexual combinations, many repeated several times. First, as is common in the genre, the heroine masturbates herself. This is followed by a flashback to Liz’s incestuous coupling with her father, Martin. When Liz returns home, she seduces her fifteen-year-old brother Bobby, and her eighteen-year-old sister Barbara. Then all three practice familial togetherness. Liz helps her brother score with Holly Aldrich, a fifteen-year-old sybarite from next door and takes her brother’s girlfriend’s virginity, rupturing her hymen with a vibrator. Bobby enjoys the fruits of his sister's ingenuity and Holly, seeing how much Liz and Bobby enjoy a frantic three-way tumble, decides to seduce her brother Carl. By now, you get the idea. Eventually, Carl scores on the harried mother, June Reynolds, who is frustrated by the impotence of Carl’s father, Larry, with whom she had been having an unfulfilling affair. Holly, meanwhile, restores her father’s lost manhood and June, after a passionate night with her daughter, falls for Liz’s feigned concern over Bobby’s latent homosexual tendencies and straightens her son out literally as well as figuratively. In the process, Liz deviously gets her father home to watch the fun and the book climaxes in a and the entire Reynolds family free-for-all. rousing five-way Mr. Young is a promising new writer with a great deal of potential and a fair ear for the language. He does, unfortunately, lapse into some of the flaws of the erotic genre. Also, his research is a bit shoddy. He credits Carl in one sequence with three consecutive orgasms (with his sister Barbara), a fifteen minute rest, three more, and, understandably enough, a sore penis. I don’t know anyone with that kind of endurance, and if I did, I’d keep any girlfriend of mine far away from him. That kind of competition I don’t need. Still, Mr. Young is clearly an up and coming star on the porno book horizon, and A Scheming Sister is a worthy first effort. It’s easy reading too; I read half of it while driving from Albany to Syracuse. MichaelBlattsilver - - - - Modeling Dept, seeks clear faces and shrunken t-shirts by L.

SHOULD THROW THIM ALL IN JAIL FOR SUBVERSION In Monday’s issue of The Spectrum, an article entitled “NYPIRG Calls For More Efficient Energy’ erroniously stated that Arthur Kremer’s proposals included a ban on new construction of electrical power plants. His proposal called only for a ban on all electrical home construction. NYPIRG does not support a ban on power plant construction. . . The inclusion of the news article Demonstrators Guest Opinion by Dennis Delia Student Athletic Review Board Every time I read of sports in The Spectrum, I wonder where we would be if not for our “one man crusader against athletic wrongdoing,” Sports Editor Bruoe Engel. Actually, I shouldn’t speak sarcastically of Mr. Engel, but I’m sure he would be the first one to defend the writing of my biased personal opinions in this paper, as he has smeared The Spectrum sports section with his for the past year. It may seem to the reader that I am upset with the writings of The Spectrum Sports Editor, and you would be correct in that assumption. 1 would like to elaborate, if I may. Mr. Engel has seen fit to use his position to “defend” himself from what he felt was an attack upon his “professional journalism” by swimming coach Bill Sanford. In this “defense,” he succeeded in slandering a man who for 25 years has faithfully and willingly served the students. I’m sure many of you can recall the recent series of articles in which our Sports Editor has lowered himself to “professional” namecalling (i.e., “a bitter old man”). More recently, and to further my personal frustration, Mr. Engel has written an article on athletic aid and scholarships. He presents this article (The Spectrum, 3/26) as a forum on a “controversial subject” in conjunction with an article written by Rich Baumgarten (Class of ’70, former Sports Ed ). Now Mr. Engel is creating controversies out of thin air! For to my knowledge, such a controversy doesn’t exist. Aren’t there enough false rumors running rampant through the general student body about the student athlete? Must Mr. Engel feed more misconceptions to the student body via his position as Sports Editor? To read his article on “Grants and Jobs for Athletes,’’ one would get the idea that the G1 Bill, EOF, Foreign Student Tuition Waivers, and Student Regents Scholarships are merely forms of “athlete aid from the department or university.” What does Mr. Engel desire from the student athlete? That merely because of his athletic status, he forfeits the right to financial programs which are the right of all qualified students? Words Mr. Engel, the fact that athletes participate in such financial programs or have on-campus jobs, not only does hot deserve an “expose” in The Spectrum but it is unfair and unjust discrimination against the student athlete. It also shows me that you haven’t the least regard for the personal feelings of student athletes. For this I am especially indignant. Did you ever take a moment to consider that some students (even if they’re athletes!) may be embarrassed to have the fact that they may be financially disadvantaged and are working to stay in school printed in the sports section of The Spectrum Mr. Engel further presumes in his article Doing What they Can” (The Spectrum, “Athletes 3/26) that in order to win consistently, you must be an “athletic factory like Ohio State.” Again, this is not the case, and 1 need not invoke our records now to prove it. Athletic scholarships, should they be provided by an outside source, do not mean the introduction to our campus of unqualified students or robotlike athletes, as Mr. Engel irresponsibly suggests. On the contrary, it means that U.B. may attract local and New York students, who often go away because of financial needs and offers from out of state schools who could benefit the university community as students and athletes. It is merely an decry airlift, within the text of the Indochina Commentary by Paul Krehbiel in last Wednesday’s The Spectrum was in no way intended to suggest that Mr. Krehbiel wrote the news article, or is in agreement with the strategy and tactics of the Spartacus Youth League or the Revolutionary Student Brigade. While emphatically opposing all aid to Thieu and Lon Nol, and supporting the strategic aims Of the National Liberation Front, the Provisional Revolutionary Government of South Vietnam, and the Royal Government of National Union of Cambodia, Mr. TCrehbiel feels that the Spartacus Youth League and Revolutionary Student Brigade are “disruptive elements, operating under the cover of the people’s popular movements.” ? — attempt to remain competitive, not to produce an athletic factory. Remember Mr. Engel, athletes as a rule are not stupid or robotlike as the stereotype that you are helping to foster. Previously, I had stated that I was frustrated. That is because my work in the past and the future, to destroy the athletic stereotype on this campus, and help the general student body to recognize the student athlete not as a parasite but as a person like themselves, is constantly thwarted by Mr. Engel. Mr. Baumgarten had said that this University was in danger of becoming the “patsy” of the east. In this he was mistaken; we have always held our own. It is the student athlete who, at UB, has been the “patsy.” Accused again and again of various wrongdoings through rumor and the misconceptions presented in The Spectrum I hope and pray that I have seen the last of unjust athletic discrimination and that I can continue my work and “clear the air” between students and student athletes. Prove your convictions To the Editor. If the members of SA wish to picket the Attica trials they should feel free to do so on their own time. Revolution, in this case the changing of the American legal system, is serious business. It may require sacrifice. It may require missing classes and accepting academic reprisals. Martin Luther King demonstrated this dedication and sacrifice. The Kent State killings were just a taste of real revolution. It is not a game. SA plans to cancel classes, rent buses, stage rallies and play games. The slogan “Attica is all of us” is only that, not reality. James Rapp “Mayhe That's One Reason It’s Been So Slow” from the Godfather To the Editor 1 must take exception to a recent letter extolling the virtues of the fine town of Brooklyn by one Jayson Wechter. When it comes to Coney Island, the Ex-Lax Factory, and William Bendix it is true that no city can hold a candle to Kings County. But as any first grader knows, it is Staten Island which has the largest per capita population of Mafiosi in the federal Eastern District of New York (“Staten Island Sunday Advance,” Vol. 88, No. 17,441). In deference to Mr. Wechter, though, I must admit that the majority of them have emigrated to Staten Island via the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge. But Staten Islanders, in that great American tradition, have accepted these Brooklynites in the warm fashion that can only be found on the sidewalks of New York. Chow. Vito Corleone Shed those labels To the Editor. In Michele Smith and Art Lalonde’s poorly considered, irresponsible letter headlining the 3/31 edition of The Spectrum, they made several broad assumptions and accusations basejl on little evidence of fact. 1. The issue of the Attica trials is affecting all of 2. The American legal system apparently assumes people guilty until proven innocent. A rhetorical cliche. Read any good books lately? 3. Everyone is paranoid about an unspecified “them” who repeatedly maltreat an unspecified group. Need I repeat myself? 4. White, middle-class, pre-med, pre-law students are “us.” Don’t saddle me with that label. I can’t consider this letter to seriously. While it won’t effect my attitudes concerning the Attica trials issue, it certainly Has revealed something about their eagerness to jump on any bandwagon that stops at Norton Union.

Editor wanted although only members can vote. WSC representatives fear, however, that their budget will be cut, and that it might be the largest reduction of all the colleges. “The anticipated budget cuts create a problem concerning the quality of the programs and services,” said Margaret Maloney, a WS/213 instructor. Passing the budget The WSC budget, which has already been cleared by the Collegiate System Budget Committee and must now be passed by the general Council, distributes the money to the various colleges. WSC has the largest enrollment and variety of classes of all the colleges with a steadily increasing student body. “We will lobby and try to work closer to the other colleges, trying to achieve a compromise that is agreeable to everyone, and will serve the needs of the Collegiate system,” Ms. Krzystek said. “The presence of WSC at the University has had an impact on the University as a whole,, and many of the courses and services that we offer have been recognized by the admimstration as beneficial to the University community,” she said. “In many ways, our goals are the same.

Available at YOUR UNIVERSITY BOOKSTORE CAMPUS �Coed basketball Unique rules separate sexes by Dan Greenbaum Spectrum Staff Writer ‘The first question you have to ask is if you want men and women playing together,” said Ed —Santos The lucky winners: Standing (from left) Robert Adelman, Robert Balcerzak, Frank Ownet and Salvatore Gal ante. Steve Kolodny is kneeling in front Eddie Arnold it misting. Look for these guys on a sulky at Buffalo Raceway April 11. Training student for pro harness racing by David J. Rubin Spectrum Staff Writer What do Eddie Arnold, Salvatore Galante, Robert Adelman, Frank Owens, Robert Balcerzak, and Steve Kolodny all have in common? They are the six people who were chosen by lottery to represent Buffalo in Buffalo Raceway's first annual Student Harness Racing Driver Championship. The six men were selected at a meeting of the 140 applicants who filled out the racing application that had appeared in The Spectrum last week. They, along with candidates from eleven other Niagara Frontier colleges, will be screened and trained by professional trainers and jockeys at Buffalo Raceway until 32 finalists are selected. On Friday April 11, finalists from Buffalo, Villa Maria, and Trocaire will compete in the first of four elimination races, with each driver eligible for cash prizes. The top two finishers from each of the four elimination races will then be eligible for the championship of the Niagara Frontier on Friday, May 9. Again, they will be eligible for drivers’ fees, but this time, the top five finishers will also win scholarships totalling $2000 respective schools. for Cavan, director of the intramural program’s coed basketball league. The program itself seems to answer with both a yes and a no. While men and women are on the court at the same time and could cooperate, a set of unique and controversial rules does a lot to separate the sexes. The rules seem to set it up so that the main members of a team are the women. A man can at no time step inside the key at either end of the court. Any basket by a man would result in two points, while a woman’s basket is worth four. It is clear why these rules have been employed. The men can no longer dominate the boards and with a man’s basket worth so little, the outside shooter is neatly transformed into a team player, passing the ball to the women inside. Positions The tempo of the game is slowed down considerably by the position given to a player. There are three positions with two players at each; one must be male and the other female. A guard can only play defense while the forwards can only play offense. An infraction in either direction (crossing the center line), results in a two point penalty. Rovers play all over the court. The main. problem that this creates is a game where most of the time only four people are participating while the others look on helplessly. This is clearly adverse to the basketball spirit which is usually (or should be) total teamwork with every player on the team participating. Cavan says that the game doesn’t necessarily have to go this way. “It’s up to the individual team to decide their strategy,” he stated, “but our most successful teams are those that use both men and women together.” Having fun? Cavan also said the main purpose of the program is to have fun rather than trying to win. But he can’t control the teams. “We provide a basic framework and they do what they want with it,” he said. Cavan also said the women in the program aren’t your more athletic and competitive women. Another strong point in favor of the program, according to Cavan, was that the league ran very smoothly and its participants were so impressed that they couldn’t wait for it to start up again next year. Mark Marcario, a team captain in the league, didn’t agree. “Every game, we played by different rules,” he said. Donna Hanlon had the same feelings about it. “My main complaint is that it was very poorly organized. We didn’t play nearly all the games we were supposed to,” she said. She also claimed that the refs often made their own rules, as they went along. their Varied backgrounds The six men who were selected to represent Buffalo have a wide variety of backgrounds. Three of them are from New York City, while the other three hail from Erie County. Robert Adelman is a 22-year-old law student, while Salvatore Galante is a seventeen-year-old freshman. Their experience with horses is equally varied. Eddie Arnold does extensive stable riding, and Galante’s father was a horse owner V1 Zoo or track On the other hand. Kolodny has been atop a horse only once or twice (not including merry-go-round rides), and Adelman’s closest contact has been from the grandstands of various racetracks. “1 grew up in Manhattan,” he explained, “and the only way I could see a horse was to go to the Bronx Zoo or the track. I picked the track.” If any of the six candidates get cold hooves, there are four alternates who were also selected at Monday’s meeting. They are: Chris Pogorzala, Monica Winkel, Paul Weinberg, and Gloria McKenna.

All you have to do is write your entry below with your name, address, phone number and student number and return it to The Spectrum office, 35S Norton Hall. Entries will be judged on originality, creativity and irreverence. Prizes will be announced. No prizes for duplicate entries. Entries are due Wednesday, April 2. Entry : —Santos On April Fool's day, Peelle Field was covered with an inch of snow. But that's no joke to Buffalo's baseball team which travels to Seton Hall Friday for the start of its northern schedule. Coach Bill Monkarsh, who once thought his biggest problem would be replacing four graduated infielders, seems to be having more trouble with Buffalo's ridiculous weather than anything else. Bubbled-out Today is the last day to submit “Name the Bubble” entry forms. The Spectrum would like to thank all those students who have afforded us many moments of levity by allowing us to share their creativity.

An open letter to the University Editor's Note: The following letter was submitted by Student Association (SA) President Michele Smith and Executive Vice President Art Lalonde. We would like to urge everyone to attend the Student Assembly meeting today at 4 p.m. in Haas Lounge, and the Attica trials on Wednesday, April 2. The very importatnt topic to be discussed will be the Attica trials. Although it has been said that the phrase is hackneyed, “Attica is all of us.” This is an issue that is affecting all of us whether we are involved in the trials or not. Think about it: the State of New York has put $9 million into the prosecution; the defense has been able only to come up with S2S0.000. With odds like that, would you be confident about the American legal system finding you innocent about anytinffl We all have a sneaking suspicion that there is some sort of consistency in the way that certain segments of the population are continually being given the shaft: some of those on the other end of the thrust are positive that there is an order to it. One thing for all of us white middle class pre-law and pre-med students have to keep in mind is who gets it after the blacks, the Native Americans, Puerto Ricans and Chicanos are Chewed up? Us? Assembly to hear resolution to support Attica rally Wed. A resolution that calls for the cancellation of all classes and exams this Wednesday so students can attend a vigil outside the Attica trial of Dacajewiah (John Hill) and Charlie Joe Parnasalice will be introduced at today’s meeting of the Student Assembly. The resolution, to be presented by Assembly members Gloria Pruzan, Richard Sokolow, Arlene Ferris and David Chavis, also requests that SA appropriate $550 for the rental of ten buses to provide students with transportation to the rally at the Erie County Courthouse. Furthermore, if the resolution passes, SA would go on record as supporting the dismissal of all current and pending charges against the two defendants. The request for a cancellation or postponement of classes and exams Wednesday is designed to allow “students, faculty, and staff members who wish to go to the rally to do so without fear of academic or administrative reprisals,” according to the resolution. SA would also sponsor a rally Wednesday night to assess the events of that day including a verdict, and investigate whit further if one is reached — — actions might be in order. The SpECTi^uM Defense attorneys indicated over the weekend that they would attempt to reopen their case for two more witnesses today, and sum it up tomorrow. The case is expected to go to the jury Wednesday, the day of the vigil. Attica Group The Attica Support Group, called on all interested students to attend the Assembly meeting today to express their support for the resolution. In addition, the group has asked students to join in a picket line outside the court today, tomorrow and Wednesday. Carpools will be leaving the Tower side of Norton Hall from 8:00 to 8:15 a.m. and again at 2 p.m. on each of those days. A poll of SA Executive committee members indicated wide support for the resolution, which could give it a better chance of passing the Assembly. Several members, however, expressed reservations about specific sections. SA officers are expected to formulate more definite reactions prior to the Assembly meeting. University operating budget is cut by state by Laura Bartlett Staff Writer Spectrum State University of New York at Buffalo Vol. 25, No. 70 Monday, 31 March 1975 Validity of SUNY health care document is being questioned interview Friday that the report was “not worth the paper it was written on.” Ms. McCormick explained that most of the by Mitchell Regenbogen Campus Editor Serious questions have been raised about the validity of a State University of New York (SUNY) report on Student Health Services designed to assess the individual health care needs of SUNY’s 72 campuses. The health care document, entitled A Paper Developed for Discussion of Policy Issues, was formulated by Ronald Bristow, SUNY Vice Chancellor for University-Wide Services and Special Programs. - document was based on a questionaire distributed to state campuses which was “ambiguous,” and which contained questions that were confusing and “leading. The campuses didn’t understand the survey,” she said. When tabulating the data, she found she was usually working with only one-half the campuses’ responses because the other half had failed to answer the questionaire, continued Ms. McCormick. “To call it (the report) even soft data is terrible,” Ms. The report found a sufficient variety of special health services on campuses besides the “basic” ones; but said there is no consistent relationship between the amount of resources available to each campus and whether the campus provides high or low cost health services. It also indicated that there is a difference in “definition between campuses of what constitutes a given [health service) function.” For example, campuses can have different interpretations of what “accessible” signifies it might mean three students able to use a facility at one campus, or 50 students at another campus. Additionally, the report sheds no light on the question of whether mandatory student fees should be used for health are. - - New York (SUNY) last Wednesday, slashing this University’s operating total budget from $81,674 to $80,931 Some of the cuts may be restored in the State supplemental budget, which will be voted on in May or June.

Assemblyman William Hoyt (D-L, Buffalo) asserted that “no one is going to get what they dreamed of out of this budget,” including SUNY. “The State is no longer the cornucopia it has been McCormick asserted.

President Robert Ketter eventually resolved the ‘Close to zero’ She indicated that she wanted readers of the matter by permitting Sub-Board to establish a “revolving” account whereby the Health Care health care document to be aware of its limitations, so she forwarded to Dr. Bristow a list of what was Division could spend any funds it generated. wrong with the report, she said. by ruling Ketter’s action was followed a Dr. No list was sent out with the report, Ms. from Walter Relihan, SUNY Vice Chancellor for Legal Affairs, that the use of mandatory student fees McCormick continued, except to some individuals for health care although questionable was “not who specially requested it.

He said his stepped-up proposals for Griffin (D-C, Buffalo) said that the fiscal year, which begins tomorrow, is “not a very happy picture” for anyone. The State budget, which SUNY is only a small part of, has been “pared down to the dry bones,” Mr. Griffin said. Assemblyman Hoyt said that officials from SUNY Buffalo he with spoken had were “understandably pretty glum” about the cuts. SUNY has directed Dr. Ketter not to approach area legislators on his own to seek budget increases (See The Spectrum, March 21) to allow SUNY to lobby as a whole. Dr. Ketter has reportedly been meeting with area representatives, but it could not be determined whether this was before or after the SUNY policy statement. Dr. Ketter was vacationing this week and could not be reached for comment. Amherst construction Assemblyman G. James Robert Ketter Mr. Fremming said he was very concerned about the effects the cuts will have on the University’s medical school, since it will be up for accreditation in the near future. Additional funds are badly needed to restore the medical school to the status of one of the nation’s leading schools, he believes. Mr. Fremming added that some of the cuts already made will be detremental to the research University’s many projects. He said that if the Amherst campus construction were completed sooner, revenues that would be saved could be put into other areas, making the State's cuts less devastating. The University rents the entire Ridge Lea campus, and the Bell-Aircraft Building on Elmwood Avenue, and pays for bus service between the campuses. Mr. Fremming regards these as expenditures, wasteful which make stepped-up construction at Amherst “a must.” legislators’ of the All spokesmen agreed that cuts in SUNY’s request are indicative of the general economic situation, and can hardly be considered surprising. They must be considered as a fact of life in 1975-76 for SUNY as well as the entire state. �SUNY budget cuts hit home by Howard Greenblatt Spectrum Staff Writer campus are seeking specific information on how the cuts will affect each particular campus.

NYS may decriminalize pot Possession of one ounce of marijuana in New York State may soon be legal. The State Assembly Codes Committee has decided advocate to Wednesday decriminalization, as a result of efforts by New York Public Group Interest Research (NYPIRG) and its Executive Director. Donald Ross. Originally the proposed legal amount was one-quarter ounce. However, Mr. Ross said that since most marijuana users buy in Fink, whose support of this bill should have a positive influence on the legislature, where the final decision rests. Also important in influencing the legislators would be letters from the public urging passage of the bill would also be helpful, and Mr. Ross strongly advises students to write to their state representatives, stressing that they are “constituents and voters and not merely students.” practice ounces, a “quarter ounce law” Common impractical. Although would be The letters should state “that Mr. Ross hopes the legal limit is there is a need for reform of the raised to two ounces, it will marijuana laws because so many undoubtedly be no less than one. young people are having their The Codes Committee is careers ruined for what is common practice,” he said. “The laws should be made to conform to the existing morals when no resultant problem has been established,” Ross said. NYPIRG has also fought to change the definition of the term “sale.” According to the New York State Drug Laws, “sale” means “to exchange, give or dispose of to another, or to offer or agree to do the same.” Handing just one marijuana cigarette to someone constitutes a “sale,” even though no money has changed hands. Such a “sale” constitutes a Qass C felony and subjects the “seller” to a maximum fifteen-year imprisonment. Mr. Ross feels most legislators oppose Attica co-counsel Ms.Ratner reflects on women and law i by Sherrie Brown Spectrum Staff Writer She has been referred to as Bill the Kunstler’s assistant by national media. But Margret Ratner is, in the fullest sense of the words, lawyer and co-counsel to Mr. Kunstler for defendant Dacajewiah (John Hill) in the Attica trials. first became Ms. Ratner involved in political law during the sixties as a student at Columbia Law School, when she assisted in the defense of students starting for arrested demonstrations there. Ms. Ratner does not think she was as aware of discrimintation against women in law school as she should have . . Ms. level,” better observed. Ratner Interest in Attica She believes that all women who are concerned about creating a society that “isn’t based on the use of other peoples and other cultures to feed a dominant society have to -be interested in Attica.” Analyzing the effects rumors had on peoples’ perceptions of the been. “I was pretty stupid for a long time and felt that I could do whatever I wanted to do,” she remarked. “I was not conscious of running into problems because I was a woman until I went to law school. There 1 began to see that the whole program was geared towards men and that I was somehow an extra personality in the environment; it was cute,” Ms. Ratner recalled. At the time she attended law school in 1967, there were only 20 women in a law class of 300. On the road up After graduation, she worked for legal aid and the Criminal Justice Division in Manhattan to get trial experience. A year after the Attica uprising in September, 1971, Ms. Ratner helped organize a demonstration at the prison. It was there that she met Mr. Kunstler and they began to work on Attica together. Asked what difficulties she has faced in the courtroom, Ms. Ratner said, “I think you have to fight much harder to get a presence in the courtroom if you’re a woman. It’s hard to get respect if you’re not giving the culturally or politically accepted point of view to the judge.” Ms. Ratner would like to see more women working with her because she believes that they have a fundamental understanding of elitism and cannot be “caught up in the customs and in the polite attitude.” “It takes longer to gain a client’s confidence because you can’t come on macho and that’s a fast way to gain rapport. But you build a slow understanding on a different level and I think a much Margret Ratner inmates during the first day or two of the uprising, Ms. Ratner believes they were spread for a good reason and were successful. “How do you go into an unarmed facility with fire power of that kind? They had to cover up the immediate atrocities of their actions with those horrible false rumors,” she stressed. “Those rumors, Ms. Ratner added, “were necessary and there are still people who would rather believe that Nelson Rockefeller does no wrong.” Ms. Ratner feels the only way begin changing the prison system is by first changing the whole society. ‘The society should be such that there are no needs to commit economic crimes,” she said. The only people who need to commit crimes would be those in desperate need of help sick people who should be treated for their illnesses, Ms. Ratner explained. ‘‘Prisons only reflect the society and that basically stops a lot of prison change,” she surmised. “Until society changes for the better, I don’t suppose that prisons will.” to — Career program The Spring, 1975 Business and Industrial Career program will be held on Ifed., April 2.

The staff instructed the — - — lobbyists on the issues and lobbying techniques as well as the ins and outs of the state legislature. During discussion of SASU’s position on the budget, however, some rumblings surfaced that foreshadowed a serious conflict. SUNY Chanclelor Ernest Boyer had asked for an increase of $87.5 million over the present budget (which would be roughly $697 million), but felt it would be futile to press for more than Gov. Carey’s $37.2 million increase. A “no growth” budget, one that would insure no cutbacks in positions or cervices, would have been about $55 million over last year’s budget. delegates, Some notably Geogge Boger of this University’s Graduate Student Association (GSA), pressed for a position demanding S87.5 million (Tver last 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.

Both Frank Jackalone and Michele Smith were nominated for three undergraduate positions on the Executive Committee. Ms. Smith got a majority on the first ballot and Mr. Jackalone lost to Doug Mason of Utica-Rome and Bill Coughtry of New Paltz. The delegates were reluctant to elect two members from the same school. Members of the Buffalo delegation told Ms. Smith she should have declined to run because her Presidential duties would keep her too busy. They also said Mr. Jackalone would have been elected if she had not run. But Ms. Smith decided, and most of the delegation agreed, that having been elected there was no way out. Mr. Boger won election as a graduate student of member the Executive Committee. At Monday’s breakfast. Assembly Speaker Stanley Steingut (D-Brooklyn) stressed his past support of free public education and said he wanted SUNY to get its budget, but stopped short of saying he would make a concerted push for it. He painted the Republican-controlled Senate and its leader, Warren Anderson (R.-Binghamton) as fiscal villains unwilling to raise taxes to cover expenditures they themselves approve. Dissension The the lobbying began morning of the 24th, as teams of three to five students met with SASU’s legislators to push program with mixed results. By lunchtime, it became apparent that all wasn’t well. Irwin Landes (D.-Nassau), Chairman of the Education Higher Assembly Committee and a legislator generally considered friendly to SASU’s goals, got a somewhat tough reception from some of the people who had wanted to take a stronger position on the budget. That evening, caucuses of dissatisfied students met in crowded, smoke-and beer-filled hotel rooms. The Executive Committee responded by calling what turned out to ba an all-night soul-searching session after a reception for legislators and staff. For nearly six straight hours, people debated the aims and began to scuffle. John Sullivan, from the Buffalo delegation, who had entered the meeting only minutes before in an obvious state of inebriation, waded into the fight. The original combatants were separated while others held back Mr. Sullivan, who was screaming at the top of his lungs. When Mr. Sullivan was released, he threw over a student, who had not been involved in the fight, and then apologized. The fight seemed to serve as a catharsis for the group, and the emotional temperature dropped several degrees. From about 3 a.m. on, the members gradually melted back to their rooms. The, lobbying continued the next day as the legislature tactics of SASU, breaking into wrestled with a self-imposed Tuesday deadline for the passage of the state budget. Meanwhile, voting delegates discussed what sort of goals SASU should set for itself and what sort of tactics it should adopt. They adopted a plan offered by Ms. Smith and Mr. DiFillipo (for details see related story) for action during the preparation of the supplemental budget. Staff, officers, and long-time SASU members said they thought the previous days’ conflict cleared the air. “SASU will be stronger for this,” one officer said, and many others agreed with that two camps, one favoring more moderate goals and standard lobbying tactics and another stressing more sweeping reforms and more radical tactics. Slugfest The debate ran back and forth between the claims of practical effective and principle. Emotions ran high and violence broke out. One student threw his coat at GSA President Terry DiFillipo, who had been making comments during every other speaker’s Mr. presentation. DiFillipo responded with a short right hook to the student’s right ear and they assessment.

A frequent critic of the Jackalone administration said of Mr. Jackalone: “He’s a really sincere guy, but a lousy politican.” Mr. Jackalone should have been “tougher” according to his critics more “ruthless” and “forceful.” News Analysis Jaekalone’s SA haunted by — image, not performance trouble Editor's Note: The final part of this series evaluating the outgoing SA administration deals with imponderables of leadership, image problems, government-press relations and plain, hard-nosed politics. by Gem Colucci Special Features Editor The argument over whether the Student Assembly should direct Speakers Bureau Chairman Stan Morrow to bring William Kunstler to speak here was long, hot, and, frankly, often irrational. In one of the quieter moments of that debate, one person reacted privately to the charge thrown at the Jaekalone administration that it was “elitist.” “Elitism! Shit man, these clowns don’t know what they during the Dandes elitism is. Where were adminsitration? This is the least elitist adminsitration I remember and I go back a long way.” and most Whatever the merits of that analysis the observers would grant it considerable validity Jackalone adminsitration faced numerous complaints of elitism and left office convinced its great failure lay in not — — bringing Student Association (SA) closer to the poeple. The alleged elitism was, like many other of the Jackalone administration’s problems, a problem of image, not of performance. Image problems haunted the Jackalone adminstration throughout its tenure. By the time it left office, the administration had picked up an image of indecisiveness, elitism and inability to accomplish its goals. Among critics of the administration, these opinions were transformed from opinion to incontrovertible fact. And many of the administration’s supporters began to believe the same. Image problem Certainly, it is easy enough to see how this image was created. Early in the administration, one critic aid of President Frank Jackalone: “Frank’s problem is that he always plays devil’s advocate with himself.” A proficient high school debater, Mr. Jackalone learned the debater’s first lesson, to see both sides of any given issue. At best, this gives insight into an opponent’s position; at worst, it is paralyzing. Some of Mr. Jackalone’s critics referred to this in branding him “indecisive.” Frequently regarded as less of a Can’t win But it seems fair to say Mr. Jackalone was damned if he did and damned it he didn’t. He was elected, most observers agree, precisely because he was not tough or ruthless, as his predecessor had appeared to be. As for his being a “politician,” he beat an opponent Bob Burrick whose image was that of a politican. In effect, he was elected for certain personal qualities and then criticized for them. Members of his adminsitration were often conscious of this image problem. “It’s not that we don’t get anything done,” one siad. “It’s just that we get yelled at in the process.” Critics mistook a rancorous conflict-filled process for an ineffective process. During the Dandes administration, which many people disenchanted with the Jackalone administration point to as a model of accomplishments, opponents fumed ineffectually, and the Assembly was usually unable to oppose Mr. Dandes. One of the ironies of the Jackalone adminsitration was that in strengthening the Assembly, it created the very forum in which a viable opposition could and did develop. - - Directionless directors Part of the Jackalone administration’s image problem came from the lack of direction in the office of Public Information. Glen Gabai, the first Director, did not run the office well according to some sources, and his -continued on page 8— Editor wanted Applications for the position of Editor-in-Chief of The Spectrum for the academic year 1974-75 will be accepted until April 18.

Open to anyone associated with the University Open from 9 located between Lockwood and the Libraries amounting to $32,000. According to Mr. Brooks, Buffalo State trustees may oppose NYPIRG on campus since the focus of most of the projects do not deal solely with student needs. But he pointed out that NYPIRG’s legal standing is very good at Buff State, and that similar problems had been overcome at other member schools in the state. Twelve colleges are involved in the state organization, with students at schools in New Paltz, Framingdale, Oswego and Brooklyn having expressed an interest in becoming a part of NYPIRG. There are PIRG offices in over 30 states nationwide. The idea of P1RG is to make students and other people in general “not helpless.” People who have given their services to the organization feel PIRG is educational, a place where they can have a direct effect on their’s and other’s lives. For example, the State University at Buffalo NYPIRG has investigated sex discrimination, bicycle locks and area pharmacists.

Page five �1 Support the Attica resolution If the Student Assembly is, as it claims, a body concerned about important social and political issues, rather than a diffuse, ill-conceived group whose interests do not extend beyond the petty politics of Norton Hall, it will strongly endorse today's resolution supporting the Attica brothers and calling for the cancellation of classes and exams Wednesday. Student Association (SA) President Michele Smith and Executive Vice President Art Lalonde have already broken away from the apolitical tradition of the last three SA administrations by supporting the proposal. In an open letter that appears on page one of this issue, they acknowledge that Attica is not an isolated incident, but a barometer of the way those who struggle for change are systematically suppressed. "We all have a sneaking suspicion that there is some sort of consistency in the way that certain segments of the population are continually being given the shaft," the letter states. "One thing all of us white middle class pre-med and pre law students have to keep in mind," it concludes, "is who gets it after the Blacks, the Native Americans, Puerto R icans and Chicanosare chewed up? Us?" This last line explains why Attica is so important it affects all of us, whether we want it to or not. Even the most apathetic, convictionless students who would ordinarily consider a political trial remote from their lives cannot hide from the fact that New York State has invested $9 million to justify its mass execution of 42 men. In the meantime, the defense has been able to procure less than 1/36 of that TRB March 31, 1975 Hey, nonny, nonny, Spring is here again with red tulips and Form 1040’s springing up madly all over the landscape and time for the eager gardener to apply his first spread of fertilizer.

Or so say the figures of James Grant, president of Overseas Development Council, who should know; but should I then stop enjoying solid foundation and work itself up to a position of greater influence anyway, let alone the irrigation needed to match it? And why don’t the hungry nations control their populations? A feeling of helplessness rose at one point last week as though we had reached a saturation point of problems.

The push to let the President lead, to sanctify the office and deify the man, is just as strong beneath the surface now as during Watergate. Save in wartime Congress can’t hurry, it is structurally intended to go slow, to compromise, composed of three bodies that often get in each other’s way; the House that is too big to debate, the Senate where Nevada and Alaska have the same voice as populous California and New York, and the third house, the House of Lobbyists, often as powerful as its two fellows. It takes time to reconcile all three. Congress has purse-string oversight. This is a tremendous power, but oversight takes time and patience and Congress, as it is shoved and bullied along, seems less and less inclined to use it. Congress failed to give appropriate oversight to the FBI and to the CIA, to the Bay of Pigs and to the adventure in Chile, to the Tonkin Gulf fraud and the secret Cambodia bombings. Prospect is that short of constitutional changes, the Presidential office will expand, Congress erode. Coming back to the moral dilemma of fertilizing my lawn I am told in a new book by Michael Rosenzweig of the University of New Mexico And Replenish the Earth, (Harper & Row, paperback) that half of the world’s four billion people are hungry, that the U.S., with less than six percent of the people, eats 35 percent of the world’s food, and that not much can be done about it save cutting back population-expansion (almost 100 million a year). Island-kingdom Japan, he says, from about 1720-1850 kept population steady longer than any other nation in history by the process among farmers thinning out which was a brutally of “Mabiki” realistic euphemism for infanticide. Japanese population at 105 million today may stabilize by the new form of mabiki abortion. China, the mysterious land without statistics, is struck with an ideology that says Communists don’t need birth control, but with perhaps 800 million people (pushing on to a billion) it is applying the toughest social coercion. Women shouldn’t marry till 25, men not till 30, with three years between the recommended first and second child, and all population limiting devices available free, from Mao to the pill. 1 have noted a hardening of attitude recently among writers on world hunger who are caught in the moral dilemma between compassion and arithmetic. Some leaders of have-not countries at the World Population Conference at Bucharest last August, and at the World Food Conference at Rome last November, refused to take any responsibility for their plight. They blamed the alwyas available and already guilt-ridden U.S. But even American abundance can’t keep up with 100 million newcomers a year on earth. Rosenzweigh, who isn’t above an academic quip or two (“the population explosion is everybody’s baby”) is fascinated by China’s experiment. And here is another moral dilemma. Communist China applies social coercion, not to say repression, to control population and its people seem satisfactorily fed. Next biggest country is democratic India, where voluntary population limitation appears to have failed. In India a fourth of those bom die before reaching four years. Seventy-six percent of the 600 million Indians, it is asserted, are malnourished. Population is increasing at the enormous rate of 10 or 15 million a year.

The Spectrum Monday, 31 March 1975 . Sue Wos said that I missed the point of her review of Alvin Lee’s concert in the Jan. 31 issue of The Spectrum. 1 don’t think so. The point I was making was that a performer should have the right to perform the material which he chooses to perform, otherwise he would just turn into a puppet .being controlled by the audience. How many creative puppets do you know? I don’t care about that concert at Kleinhans. I also don’t care if Gentle Giant was any better or not. The only thing that I care about, along these lines, is the right for a performer to grow creatively. If a performer chooses to do material with which the audience is not familiar, or does not like, you can bet he’ll either stop doing it or just fade away into oblivion, but he at least has the right to try. Alvin Lee’s new music may not please anyone, in fact, I may be the only one who likes it, but you’ve got to give him credit for waiting and trying to expand himself as a musician. In her reply to my letter, Ms. Wos stated that Alvin Lee “can’t dictate what the audience should get into.” I couldn’t agree more. Only thing is, he didn’t do that. He just explained what he was into and gave us a chance to either praise it or dislike it. I think that’s pretty fair. These are the reasons that I was so defensive towards Ms. Wos’ review. I also think she is a little confused herself, especially with lines like “Everyone has a right to . . . hopefully hear some favorites,” and “Everyone has a right to expect certain material . following each other. As far as I know, hope and expect have two fairly opposite meanings. In closing, 1 can only hope that Ms. Wos eventually gets her shit together concerning the allowance - of creativity in musicians, because the only way music, will ever last is through this allowance. .

We see neither the humor nor the relevance of both the article and the cartoon which perpetrate the myth of woman’s value in society solely as a sexual object.

First let me say that 1 don’t believe in some of the tactics used by the JDL. I do believe that Jews have to fight back against rampant anti-semetism (bumper stickers which read, “Bum Jews, not oil,” swastikas on the walls, etc.). Verbal anti-semetism inevitably leads to physical destruction of Jews, which is what Rabbi Kahane and other concerned Jews are afraid of. Mr. Mark says we “need spokesmen who are committed to observance of the law and peaceful protests.” This is the same attitude that lead to the slaugher of 6,000,000 a generation ago and countless millions generations before.

The current Director, Oliver Fultz, came in when it was already too late to alter SA’s image. Relations between the Jackalone adminstration and the press were delicate. The Spectrum endorsed all but one of those who eventually won the election and most editors connected with SA-related news had acquaintances on the Executive Committee. Still, many members of the administration felt they got bad press coverage. Since, as the adminsitration source quoted before said, the Jackalone admisntration got “yelled at,” yelling became news. Under the Dandes adminstration, stories about SA often took the form of reports on Mr. Dandes’ latest fait accompli. Hence, no matter how high-handed certain actions seemed, the story was always about action, about what he had pulled now. openness than last year, some reporters on The Spectrum claim they frequently had to twist the arms of Executive Committee members to find out information it considered routine. Part of the problem of summing up the Press relations Under the Jackalone administration, the stories usually centered on the conflict involved in getting anything done. By their very nature, news stories are rarely analytical, and if someone danced on the table at a budget meeting or started a fight over the speakers program, stories would emphasize such overt action. Statements about how much, or how little, was getting done in the process rarely made the papers. The style of the Jackalone adminstration, more open and therefore open to more conflicts, shaped the style of the news. Despite a greater is that no one is sure what standards are appropriate. By absolute standards of efficiency, wisdom, and justice, all governments fail. Comparison with past administrations NYPIRG calls for ,more efficient energy The New York Public Interest Research Group has called for a new state energy policy that would conserve energy while cutting consumer costs. Speaking last week before the State Assembly Committees on Corporations, Authorities and Committees, NYPIRG of Buffalo spokesman David Lennett called for an end to inefficient energy production. Mr. Lennett cited studies done by the Office of Emergency Preparedness, the Rand Corporation and the Ford Foundation of which indicate that energy consumption could be drastically reduced if waste is eliminated and more efficient means of production are adopted. Transefer of relaince NYPRIG advocates a shift away from traditional fossil and nuclear fuels to less expensive energy forms. “Supposedly exotic forms of energy production such as solar heating and cooling or producing electricity from wind are available,” said Mr. Lennett. To support his remarks, he referred to a report to the New York State Commission on Energy and research reports to various Congressional committes.' Mr. Lennett added that recent proposals made by Athur J. Kremer, (D.—Long Beach) the commission’s chairman, were “good, but not the answer.” Mr. Kremer’s proposals included a ban on new construction of electrical power plants. Mr. Lennett said he supported the Safe Energy Act by introduced Assemblyman Daniel K. Haley (D.-Waddinton), because it constitutes a “beginning at establishing a state policy.” The bill calls for the establishment of a New York State Energy Research and Development Authority to replace the New York State Atomic and Space Development Authority, and spending cuts for nuclear energy plants. the Mr. Lennett blamed Page eight . utilities for their reliance on present energy sources and their insistence that new construction is a solution to the energy shortage. “It’s a familiar cycle, he said. “New construction needs more capital, which needs a high rate of return, which needs money.” He said this sysle was the major reason rates are going up at an “incredible rate” and claimed that the need for costly construction could be eliminated, through the use of alternative and more efficient energy sources. Mr. Lennett said that Public (PSC), Service Commission created to regulate utilities was ineffective because it was hampered by “obivous lack of consumer representation.” Mr. Lennett called for greater legislative control of PSC activities and appointments. He indicated that NYP1RG is drafting a bill that would establish a board of funded a professionals, by check-off from utility bills, to represent consumer interests at the often technical and complex PSC hearings. I accomplishments of a student government administration beg the question. The most logical standard comparison with the best is the alternatives in the realm of political possibility most difficult to apply. Certainly, the Jackalone administration failed to meet absolute standards; just as well in comparison to other certainly it fared administrations. Any statement more definite than that would be hard to justify. - - LAW SCHOOL INTERVIEWS Of Prospective Law Students A Representative of the College ofLaw UNIVERSITY OF SAN FERNANDO VALLEY will be in New York City from April 29 to May 4, 1975.

The Spectrum , Page nine �Few women take advantage of Bubble athletic facilities by Joy Clark Staff Writer Spectrum Walk in the Bubble at almost any time and you’ll see court after court of men. They’ll be playing at every basket and more of them will be sitting around waiting to play. A few will be jogging or tossing a football around. You’ll see guys everywhere you look. But this university is co-ed. Where are the girls? You might see a few of them, jogging or maybe even playing basketball, but not very many, and not very often. “A lot of girls aren’t interested (ih going to the Bubble),” said freshman Debbie McKenna, “and those that are have a tough time getting a court.” The Bubble’s director, Gary Sailes, had they think to agree. “Men run them out the girls are a pain in the ass, and there’s no way they’re going to give up a court to a girl.” — Embarrassed Some women say they feel embarrassed to play in front of men. “I’d like to play if all the people would disappear from the courts,” stated sophomore Rena Flex. “The girls feel a bit inhibited by the amount of men waiting for courts,” added Recreation Director Bill Monkarsh. Some men have displayed macho attitudes, giving the girls good reason to be inhibited. “Most girls have their place they know basketball isn’t for them,” said freshman Vernon James. “Girls in the Bubble?” remarked freshman Lenny Schindel, “not to play basketball, only to jog.” A lot of the men seem to think that women aren’t serious when they play. “Most men smile at us like they’re watching little kids play,” said Debbie McKenna. Monkarsh and Sailes are trying to attract women to the Bubble, One full court is reserved every night for just women or co-ed activity, but because there are so few women at the Bubble, men usually use this court. Many women would like to see sports Harness racers There will be a meeting this afternoon for all harness racing applicants in room 339 Norton Hall at 3 p.m. Mark Coloton, a former driver and trainer and now an official of Buffalo Raceway will speak.

But where are the women? other than basketball in the Bubble. “I don’t like to play basketball,” said graduate student Chandra Holsey, “but when they have tennis, I’ll be out here.” Women’s Night If there is enough interest, there will be a women’s night once a week when the Bubble will be closed to men. Eventually, Monkarsh hopes to add volleyball, badminton, weightlifting and tennis to the new recreation facility. Only basketball and jogging are available right now. Attitudes are changing and the male users of the Bubble may have to change their attitudes too. “They have to realize that the Bubble has to be used by all the students,” concluded Monkarsh. “The Bubble is for the total use of all the University community.” News anal sis What happened to the by David J Rubin Staff Writer . Spectrum About one month ago, when the Student Association (SA) was mulling over what to do about athletics at this University, a group of athletes organized the Students for the Future of Athletics (SFA). At a time when it appeared that intercollegiate sports was on its way out at Buffalo, SFA lobbying was largely responsible for passing a budget which will maintain varsity sports at their present level for at least one more year. The University community took notice of the athletes during those budget hearings But now that the great debate has subsided, now that the athletic program is ? cause, like the Grangers of the Great Plains? Is SFA organization a service emphasizing Is SFA primarily with the political athletics? concerned advancement of athletics on this campus? These questions have not really been resolved.

SFA President Jim Young is also looking to inaugurate an “Athletics Week” early next fall that would include lectures, films and demonstrations produced and sponsored by SFA in conjunction with various coaches and athletes. All talk, no action is no question that and SFA have good intentions. Yet their plans are no more than plans. SFA still has not approved a constitution. It has There Young not established formal procedures, and even its specific purpose is still somewhat vague.

Extravagant projects like a $2,500 awards banquet (currently under consideration by SFA) are ludicrous for an organization which has no funds and no direct access to any in the foreseeable future.

Even as the battle-fatigued soldiers of Troop G of the Ohio National Guard patrolled the campus early Monday, the same squadron that may or may not have been given an order to fire the fatal shots, the campus seemed to possess an uneasy calm.

They were soon joined by Cantebury and Lieutenant Colonel Fassinger, commander of the 2nd Squadron, 107th Armored Cavalry, and as it became closer tb noon, at least a thousand more students appeared at the Commons. They were acting peacefully, though, and only began harassing the Guard when Cantebury gave the order to an order disperse at 11:50 a.m. that was clearly against the students’ constitutional rights. of exception the With Cantebury, Fassinger, and Major Walter Jones, all the Guard wore gas masks. Company A and C of the 145 th Infantry Regiment, took the right and left flanks respectively, and Captain Ronald Snyder led Troop G down the center of the Commons. the plan of dispersement was for Company A and Troop G to head towards Taylor Hall on the west corner and Company C to approach the building on the east.

However, parents, staff and administration still do not agree on whether the ECC is an adequate alternative to the old because they feel policy decisions are made by academic coordinator Dorothy Farmer and the administration, without parental input. “Policies are arbitrary and are made in consultation with parents, and parents needs are not taken into account,” said Pauline Lipman, a parent.

Friday, 28 March 1975 ). 0.-5 �Law School lousy for other reasons To the Editor. I read with interest your article in the March 21st issue regarding the Law School and its decision to reduce the number of students in its future entering classes. Particularly disturbing was the remark that “an increased number of students supposedly left for financial reasons.” Of course, the fact that this might be true is disturbing in itself, but more annoying is the misleading character of the statement. One reading the quote might easily be led to believe that financial problems constitute the major impetus for the attrition at the Law School. As a now-former law student whose financial disposition had little or nothing to do with his quitting law school, I can say that I have talked to many others who feel similarly. I would not venture to say that my short attendance at Buffalo Law School was accomplished with financial ease, but I can truthfully and emphatically assert that more poignant reasons such as 1) the harshness of the teaching system at law school, 2) the apathy of the teachers in helping the students, and 3) the emotional inability to get myself involved in a teaching system that only amplifies and continues the inanities of past education experiences played a much more significant role in ending my and other law students’ legal careers. I realize that my opinion is only one, and those of the others mentioned only a minority, but I have yet to meet more than a handful of law students who enjoy law school, expecially the Socratic system of teaching and learning. Rather than the law school’s excuse of financial difficulty, I would much more readily believe that those who have left, including myself, would gladly have spent the money needed if those involved in the law school teaching and administrative hierarchy would have exercised just a mite of effort to make the students more comfortable. I write this letter only to let those who read the article know that more than pure economics is at stake regarding attrition at the Law School. Jan Abramowitz Former Student at Buffalo Law School frorr here to ther by Garry Wills Recently, two bird stories made the front page of our newspapers. It might have seemed quirky to feature even one of these stories so prominently, and overkill to run them both; but a sound news instinct was involved. The first story told about a rare arctic gull that fluttered way off its beaten track and popped up in Massachusetts. The other was about a bird with wings wider than a jet plane’s, that disappeared many years ago. The first was news because we knew what to expect of the gull and it broke the pattern. The second was news because nothing about it could have been expected the size, the site, the apparent prey of the thing. Each bird, the small gull and the huge pterosaur, was interesting in itself; but even more interesting for the way it disturbed whole patterns of expectation and reality around them. Had some new climatic conditions wafted the gull south? If so, — — what effect would that change have on other life? We have one clue, and now look for others. The pterosaur raises even more basic questions. How does it fold wings so vast? It seems to have had small legs. It would be tipped over by its own wings if it tried to stand. My d aughter said maybe it stood on a mountaintop, and let the wings droop down on either side. Not a dumb comment, after all scientists had felt no creature with such wings, accordioned in to its sides, could flap its way up on a it would have to live in mountain air flat surface currents, like the gliders men build. Yet the pterosaur was found in a flat area of Texas. The thing seems to have had a long bill, for probing deep into prehistoric carcasses; a flesh eating thing, more giant kite than heron. Its mystery is that it belonged to a whole giant order of outsize things disappeared. Big news? Yes, I think; big news. Fresh reminder that nothing exists alone on earth; but only as part — - Religious justice Kahane not a spokesman To the Editor. To the Editor As convenor of the Campus Ministers, as Wesley Foundation Director, as a Christian and as a humanitarian I must add my voice to those who are deploring the actions of a few (hopefully not more than a few) misdirected persons, who show a hatred for Jewish people and for the human race by writing words and slogans reminiscent of one of the sickest periods in history. We of the Wesley Foundation plea for a return to sanity and peaceful solutions. We ask that those people stop writing slogans of hate and violence. We call on all caring and concerned people to help put an end to this abusrdity by reporting any observed writers to the proper authorities. As one part of the religious segment of this community we call for justice. The Spectrum of March 19, 1975 contained an article which described the talk that Rabbi Meir Kahane gave to an audience in the Fillmore Room on March 4. This article explained how Rabbi Kahane devoted a large portion of his comments to the problems facing American Jewry today. The article specifically stated that Rabbi Kahane was concerned with explaining how American Jews can maintain “pride” and “self respect” while avoiding “alienation” and “assimilation.” I want to commend Rabbi Kahane for bringing public attention to the above problems of American Jewry. 1 am not so confident that he can provide the answers to these problems, however. I would like to ask the people who were attracted by Rabbi Kahane’s comments to think about his earlier career. Rabbi Kahane first won national recognition as head of the Jewish Defense League (JDL), an organization which he helped to establish in New York City in 1968. The JDL under Rabbi Kahane’s leadership at first concerned itself with such matters Jewish patrolling as neighborhoods in New York where crime was rampant. In 1969, the JDL decided to concentrate instead on publicizing the plight of Soviet Jewry. The JDL did not confine itself to participation in peaceful public demonstrations in order to do this, however. To the contrary, the JDL committed such acts as heckling the wives of members of the Soviet Union’s Mission to the United Nations while they were shopping. According to an article in Newsweek magazine, the JDL also used violent tactics . . .ranging from scuffles with police to bomb blasts at a Soviet tourist office in New York and at an embassy building in Washington” ( Newsweek Jan. 25, 1971, p.29). The JDL at the same time proceeded to train many of its members in the martial arts and in the use of firearms. Meanwhile, most of the Jewish organizations in the U.S. condemned the JDL. Samuel Dalsimier of of a system, living off it, contributing to it. Interconnected; preying and preyed on, fed and feeding, moved in and moving vast circles of influence. Touch one part of the system, and others are affected; they are startled to unnatural activity, or they die. We Americans “won the West” i.e., changed it, for good and bad. We killed off a whole order of things. We killed buffalo and Indians, and it was easier to kill the latter because we had killed the former. Othello knew he faced death when he said, “Othello’s occupation’s gone.” We killed the Indians’ occupation, their life pattern, their source of life in that act, whether we knew it or not, we were already killing the Indians. Today, with the growth of ecology, conservation, fear for resources, we have a knowledge of life systems that could sound mystical if they were not so thoroughly grounded in science. Yet we destroy whole areas and species with an abandon shown in the West before we had that knowledge. People would give a great deal, now, to see a ptersaur wing over us but its whole support — — — system is gone. Still, we have mythically huge and ancient creatures alive today, surviving along with their vast support system gulping (some of them) a ton and a half of food per day, to support bodies twice as large as any dinosaur’s. These could support themselves but for our decision to kill them off (along with their partially understood life system). I am talking about whales. There are businessmen in Russia and Japan who would make a few last pennies by turning that vast species extinct. Demonstrators who protest this are not fringe groups or faddists and this is not the only point where we must take a stand for life and its interpendencies. In the Bible, God told Job to ponder Creation’s mystery as bodied forth in Leviathan. The modern Job is in danger of saying, “Sorry, Lord, I can’t. They just carted Leviathan off to the cannery.” — — the Bnai Brith’s Anti-Defamation League was quoted as Agape, Rod Saunders Wesley Foundation Director Research grants To the Editor. This letter is to express my appreciation and gratitude to the G.S.A. for helping to fund my dissertation research last'spring and sumnler, and to tell other graduate students about it, especially those who are inclined to think that their projects could not get funded because the system is not really interested in helping them. I got helped, at about the time that I needed help; and in hindsight, with very little work or worry. The big hurdle for me was filling out an and anticipated budget giving certain other specifications of the study, and of course waiting for the decision. I tend to be cynical about official workings, both in terms of inefficiency and favoritism. I had no “in” nor any other advantage so are as I know, there was no assistance whatever from the Sociology Department. I even managed to accidentally make a bad impression on a SGA official when inquiring about the grants, and the award still came through, without much red tape, or bookkeeping afterward. If anyone reading this who had a researchable project is at all impressed, try for a grant from the Graduate Resource Access Development Project of the G.S.A.

Dan Schulman Graduate Student Department of Sociology “ , saying: operations “We find the group’s paramilitary and appeals senssationalist an embarrassment and a potential danger” (Time, July 4, 1969, p.22). Elie Wiesel, the famous Jewish novelist, felt moved to repudiate the JDL’s tactics by saying: “I can’t see harassing an old lady in a supermarket or an old man inthe street, no matter what the motives.” (Time, Jan. 25, 1971, p.21) Rabbi Kahane as head of the JDL was actively involved in the formulation of the JDL’s tactics and policies in those years. Rabbi Kahane’s activities led to his arrest on a number of occasions. One of the more prominent occasions on which he was arrested took place in May 1971 when he was arrested by U.S. Treasury Dept, agents on the charge of . . .conspiracy to violate the Gun Control Act of 1968 by transporting weapons into the New York area.” (Time, May 24, 1971, p.21) Has Rabbi Kahane changed his attitudes towards violence and disobedience of the law since 1971? The rhetoric which The Spectrum article reported that he used in his talk here seems to indicate that Rabbi Kahane has not changed his attitudes on these subjects. So does the fact that Rabbi Kahane is now beginning a jail term because he pleaded guilty to the charge that he had become involved with weapons and ammunition in violation of the conditions of his probationary sentence for an earlier conviction. 1 would be happy to hear evidence that would indicate that Rabbi Kahane has changed his views on these subjects, but I do not think it likely that such evidence could be produced. 1 believe, for the reasons that 1 have enumerated above, that Rabbi Kahane is not a suitable spokesman for American Jews. I think the American Jewish people need spokesmen who are committed to observance of the law and to peaceful protests. I want to encourage those of my fellow Jews who share my views concerning Meir Kahane to make your opinions known by writing to The Spectrum. “ Robert Mark Anthro, not philosophy Department.

Whether a man has a good job or no job, they both become equally hungry, “and when their going to die, they both will seize food,” the officer had said. ‘Do I dare ...’ Mr. Kunstler explained that one need this only push philosophy an inch further to understand why the inmates of Attica, faced with living conditions that violated the most basic human values, were “willing to risk what Daniel Berrigan calls the ‘risk of self-jeopardy.’ He said this dilemna commiting oneself to struggle at all costs is reminiscent of the lines “Do 1 dare, Do I dare” from T.S. Eliot’s poem, The Love Song of J. A Ifred Prufrock.” After Mr. Kunstler concluded his speech by reading the last six lines of the poem American Names, by Stephan Vincent Benet, Dacajawiah unexpectedly ” - — went up to the podium and the two men embraced. The Native American then spoke briefly, recounting how the joint “struggle” of the last two years had been based on the “true sense of collectivity” of his culture and beliefs. Dacajawiah said his trial was important because “my people must see this to see that somebody will stand for us.” Rather than viewing Attica as one isolated case, he said it was and essential to recognize understand oppression, “what it means to be human and exist: understanding does not mean simply “understanding words and the really beautiful way the paragraphs are rattled off,” he explained. Dacajewiah thanked Everett Burkett, who was in the audience, for coming forth as a defense witness at the last minute, and urged the crowd to go to court next week to show support for him and co-defendant Charlie Joe Pernascilice. ... " ... Double madness On the eve of the first verdict, no groundswell of support for the Attica Brothers has made itself visible. Despite numerous possible sources of support in Erie County, no resistance of sufficient size has surfaced, resistance which could stave off the double madness of correcting one atrocity with another, something this country has practiced in the past. But at the University, classromm attendance seems to be soaring, with seats going on a first come, first serve basis. So the trials go on in the conspicuous absence of the dozens of supporters whose continuous large turnout would serve notice on the prosecution and state that the two defendants are, above all, fully sentient human beings. There is something immediately gratifying and expeditious i Kunstler —continued from page 1 Although there are only enough chairs in the Erie County courtrooms on Franklin Street for about as many students as would fill two average-sized freshman seminars in political science, visitors to the Attica trial of Dacajewiah and Charlie Joe Pernasilice have had no trouble finding a place to sit. The other morning, for example, at precisely 10 a.m., a handful of attorneys, the judge and twelve jurors filed into the empty courtroom, just as they had done every day for the past five weeks.

Beautifully directed and photographed, flawlessly acted by Beatty and co-stars Julie Christie, Goldie Hawn, Lee Grant and Jack Warden, Shampoo is intelligent, satisfying and very, very funny.

He has taken a major symbol of feminity and turned it into a badge of his own virility, and it is this paradoxical double power which makes his so unbelievably (and often almost helplessly) irresistible to every one of his clients. "Let's face it," he admits sheepishly to Jill (Goldie Hawn), his incredulous girlfriend, "I fucked 'email." And furthermore; "Maybe I don't love 'em . . . but nobody's gonna tell me I don't like 'em very much." Shortly before this revelation, Jill had happily told her best friend Jackie (Julie Christie), "You know what George did the other night? He woke me up at two o'clock just to do my hair!"

I'm losing all my concepts"), she conquers the little doubts that keep sneaking up behind her by drowning them in alcohol. While Lester and his wife Felicia (played with a fascinating combination of gutlessness and bitchiness by Lee Grant) try to relieve the frustrations Jack of their decaying bodies and degenerating society by gradually destroying each other, only Jill (Goldie Hawn) finally proves capable of doing something about all of this. It is virtually impossible (even for George) to think of Hawn as anything other than the perpetual ingenue, but it is precisely her naive trust and outrage at its violation that allow her to float just above the helpless hedonism which swamps everyone else. Jill is fresh and cute, just like Hawn always has been.

Russian culture and life discussed here In an effort to demonstrate the various Russian contributions to world culture, the Department of Germanic and Slavic sponsored a four-part Russian Symposium last week featuring a lecture by Professor Serge Zenkovsky of Vanderbilt University, the music of Igor Stravinsky, and performance and lecture on "Stanislavsky and the American Burden." The last section, presented March 20, consisted of four lectures presented by professors counties. The second lecture, presented by Dr. Albert Cook, dealt with "The Spirit of Russian Poetry." He distributed four translated Russian poems to the audience and played a record of the poems spoken in Russian. While discussing the poetry, he pointed out that many Russian poems strive towards understatement and simplicity, a fact many translators overlook, even though the understatement is the very essence of the poem. He added that there is something "deeper and more sorrowful" in Russian poetry, due from the University. Each one excited a good deal of interest in areas that are quite often possibly to the culture and history overlooked because of the of the people. "Diaghilev's Ballet Russe and differences in culture and spirit and Collaborators" was the topic of between the American Russian peoples.

The music committee is the largest single committee on the Union Activities Board. Although UUAB is responsible for all entertainment activities on campus, and is the only division of Sub-Board which consistently pays back the fees invested, only 9.6 percent of your $67 goes to its funding (as opposed to, say, 12.5 percent going to men's sports). Still, the budget is only the beginning of a'long list of limitations and hassles the music committee has to deal with. One of its major problems, surprisingly enough, is student ignorance and apathy, and that, readers, is the purpose of this article. The contents of this piece are the result of an interview with Robbie Schiedlinger, president of the committee, and Larry Barton, chief navigator, both of whom sincerely want the student public to be aware of, and understand, just how the music committee functions and the problems involved. No elitism One of the most popular misconceptions concerns UUAB's choice of talent. Contrary to rumor, the members of the committee do not simply get together, decide who they want to see, and then bring those groups in. Actually, Robbie was emphatic in pointing out that the committee is here to serve the student population. Surveys are taken and responded to (perhaps you've filled one out yourself). The committee tries to provide groups to serve the widest range of student musical desires. One look at this year's concerts makes that obvious. For popular tastes, there Were groups like the New Riders (country rock), Dave Mason and Robin Trower (more commercial electricity), and the Kinks (the British rock and rollers who brought a new meaning to the word theatrics). Two of these concerts, by the way, were presented at a financial loss; the third made a slight profit. At the same time, the committee was sensitive to new, emerging talent from both the States and Hall and Oates) and abroad (Frampton's Camel). For those with more esoteric leanings, the virtuoso Leo Kottke was presented, and for the renewed interest in jazz (revealed in the surveys), the historic meeting of Chick Corea and Keith Jarrett, as well as the McCoy Tyner show, was (Orleans served up. Gym a nightmare There are many gripes concerning (JUAB concerts, and Mr. Schiedlinger explained some of the myriad problems that cause things to go awry. One basic hassle is the lack of good facilities. Of the concert halls in town, the Century now has very limited accessibility, and the Aud is too big a risk (the cost of putting one concert on there could mean blowing a whole year's budget if it wasn't a success). Kleinhans can only be used in conjunction with Festival East, which means higher costs all around. That leaves the Fillmore Room and Clark Gym. The small size of these rooms imposes a serious financial limitation; groups out of a certain price bracket become unfeasible. Furthermore, Clark Gym, with its high ceilings and hard walls and floors, is an acoustician's nightmare; the Fillmore Room is only slightly better. Although the sound systems have improved over the past year and a half (due to the switch from KRC to Brighton Sound), even a million dollars worth of equipment couldn't improve the rooms' intrinsically awful acoustics. Besides the facilities, Mr. Schiedlinger also pointed out that the University's location in a big city (as opposed to the isolation of places like Harpur and Stony Brook) puts the music committee at yet another disadvantage: it is one of the few college music services in direct competition with local professional promoters. In the first place, talent agencies tend to be wary of student music committees, with their constant turnover in personnel. Because local promoters are in the business to make money, and because they have been around longer, they have longer standing and superior contacts with the agencies, and sometimes UUAB loses out. The story of the Average White Band is a case in point. Scotch on the rocks In late November (months before "Pick Up The Pieces" skyrocketed on the charts), UUAB had already booked AWB to appear with Orleans on Jan 24. The contracts were sent, and everything appeared to be going smoothly. Then the single came out. Three weeks before the concert was scheduled to go on, Mr. Schiedlinger was notified that the Scottish band would have to cancel, due to difficulties in getting working papers. (Upon checking, Mr. Schiedlinger found no record of the band's even applying for immigration papers.) On March 4, AWB appeared in Kleinhans, presented by Festival East, for a much higher fee. Mr. Schiedlinger explained: "Without making accusations, it becomes clear that something other than straight business dealings had come into play regarding who was going to promote the Average White Band. Festival East has had a long standing relationship with the agency that represents AWB When it became economically advantageous to play on that relationship, Festival East did so." Schiedlinger said it was to be expected: after all, music is a business. He said the difference lies in the fact that Festival East is in it to make money, while UUAB's main purpose is to present entertainment for the students. 'I'm only goin' to Dayton . .' Up until now, I have just been explaining some general problems. The amount of little details that go into presenting any One show, dealing with thousands of dollars and thousands of people, are more numerous and sometimes more ludicrous than you can imagine: from airplanes shipping equipment to Baltimore on the day of the show, to dealing with egocentric stars, to the donation of a bad piano, to controlling a dangerously long line in the Union, to fighting with a bunch of Macedonian folk dancers well, maybe I'll go into greater detail on all that at some later date. At any rate, after going through enough hassles big and small to drive any normal person insane, the most upsetting aspect of the whole thing for Mr Schiedlinger is that when he finally presents the . - show, UUAB can't even count on the students to support it. Attendance records show that most shows are attended by 50 percent non-students. As most of you should know by now, UUAB concerts are always cheap (from $2 to $4), presented in a hassle-free atmosphere (i.e., no goons for ushers), and have an excellent rack record for picking fresh, interesting new talent a few years before they're big enough or commercial enough to play the Aud. And in rooms the size of Clark and Fillmore, with this kind of talent and ticket price, there really is no reason why every concert shouldn't sell out. But they don't. Up to you The recent Student Association (SA) referendum proved that student interest in entertainment activities is higher than ever before. Students count on UUAB for films, art, the coffeehouse, concerts and more. Vet, with this surge in interest apparent, SA is considering cutting UUAB's budget. At a time when costs are skyrocketing anyway, it is up to the students to Overcrowding support their own interests. For those of you who dislike the added We all know the days of the Fillmore East are discomfort of being crowded together on the floor, over. Still, with your support, th,e music committee consider this: putting chairs in the gym would cut can bring more and better talent. And who knows? the already too small available floor spae in half. You might even begin to rediscover that old UUAB being a non-profit organization, usually excitement that comes from hearing a great new taking a loss, it simply can't afford it. Even worse, group for the first time. Next time you're standing in because of the overcrowding of school facilities, the line in front of the Norton Ticket Office, take a look committee often has trouble getting the use of these at the events board. If it says presented by UUAB, rooms, even when they have booked them months in even if you've never heard of the group, take a advance. Finally, although no one really understands chance. It'll probably be a night of superior music. Prodigal Sun �Magic Lantern John Cassavetes' 'Influence/ for film buffs only a tight "Fttttttt!"

As a character, Nick is more out by Jay Boyar On this campus, full, as it is, of freaks, nuts, goers, makers, fanciers, experts and to a lesser extent those people with a more "selectively broad" interest in the movies, on this campus a few weeks back there was a John Cassavetes film festival.

Certainly a clinker like A Child Is Waiting could not have mattered much to anyone unless they happened to be writing a masters' Trouble on John Cassavetes which, come to think of it, just about every other buff, freak, nut, etc. seems to be doing or planning to do these days. Clinker though it is, A Child Is Waiting had one intriguing scene. Smack in the middle of that film most of which is destroyed by a ponderous obviousness and that "movie mood music" which lets you know exactly how you should feel at any given moment is a scene set in an actual institution for hopelessly retarded adults. It's an odd, stark, disturbingly real scene which seems even more peculiar, in fact, since it's surrounded by such tliesis — Despite all of this, there's a real problem with the movie. Often, a film is criticized for being unambitious. A lot of dumb, cheap trash (somehow the film The Graduate comes instantly to mind) are bad because what they try to do is so minimal that no — matter how fully they accomplish it, it doesn't add up to much.

It's is, really, interesting, but is it what we want not if most recent film, A Woman Under the Influence is to expand the tension and realism of that scene for the length of an entire movie. In Influence, a woman grapples with insanity on screen for almost three hours, and (after the first ten minutes) there is no let-up in the pressure created. The camera places us in each scene often we feel we're standing in the room with the characters and sometimes as if we actually are the characters and since what they're going through is such a strain for them, it becomes our strain as well. Influence goes beyond empathy. The tension is not that of a Hitchcock thriller, whose plots are intricate little machines. It's closer, in Influence, to the tension of life.

Gena Rowlands Rowlands as Mabel never lets us rest as she acquires a series of personality tics which at first seem to be a result of excessive drinking, but are later revealed to be the manifestations of insanity Rowlands goes wild in the role she never stops. She's like a straight, serious Carol Burnett in her concentration, energy and talent. (This has its bad side, too. Rowlands, like Burnett, sometimes comes on too strong.) Rowlands generally seems so real that you could imagine people thinking, "She’s worked with Cassavetes for so long that what's happening on film may not be entirely fiction. I think Gena Rowlands may really be having a breakdown and Cassavetes is just capturing it on film." That's going a bit too far. Still, Rowlands is very convincing with her beaming, off-the-wall comments, her glazed gaze and a nervous thumb-gesture accompanied by her voice spitting — Strawbs and Entwislean Ox V.'e worked our way down to the seedy depths of Main Street the other Sunday night. I kept on telling Mark that the set up of this concert was all wrong, while he kept on insisting that it couldn't be done any other way. The apparent headliner of the bill was John Entwisle and his band. Ox. However, the out of place starting group was the Strawbs, a band with a strong following and a proven history of good music. It seemed all wrong to me. Yeah, we would get to hear two very good groups, but they would contradict complement Prodigal Sun rather than each other. The premise was absurd. A Strawbs crowd wasn't going to appreciate Entwisle, and when you're this close to Canada, the crowd is coming because the Strawbs are playing. Mark tried to approach it with an open mind. He had two bands to look forward to, regardless of their order. Not everyone was entering the Century with such broad taste. Tapestretic beauty The Strawbs came out late due to the slow-to-assemble crowd. They shuffled on stage in understated indifference, approrpiate to their placement for the evening. But with the first note, they soared away from mediocrity with a continual display of vivid, colorful music. Dave Lambert's expertly controlled guitar built a firm foundation for the haunting, weaving intricacies of David Cousins' vocals and acoustic guitar. The Strawbs' material drew heavily' from their two latest albums, the ones that were produced by the current personnel.

Page nine . �\ Seals and Crofts put on routine show at Falls by Marcia Kaplan Spectrum Staff Writer Seals and Dash Qrofts played at the Niagara Falls Convention Center Friday night. It was a nice concert. Nice, pleasant, innocuous, technically sufficient and thoroughly unexciting. And I might add I wasn't the least bit surprised. The Center resembles the insides of a caterpillar in heat when packed for a concert. Definitely not a place for agoraphobics. Seals and Crofts drew a crowd of about 8,000, many of them high school kids who alternated between screaming and pounding their feet (so hard that the stands shook at times), or sitting back restlessly whimpering to each other and waiting for the music to pick up. It did, and it didn't. As long as Seals and Crofts were singing you could almost manage to get caught in some of their harmonies. But during the long instrumentals (which these days tend away from any display of virtuosity and towards a jazzed up pop sound), the collective tolerance level ran low. Even from those people who were there to hear what Seals and Crofts came to play. Jimmy No more roses I didn't really expect to hear much of their old stuff from the days when they were a lot closer to folk music with an odd Oriental twist that made you feel you were going to step out into a new realm of consciousness and understanding, jasmine-scented and strewn with rose petals. I'm not talking about "Summer Breeze" and "Hummingbird" either. I mean their old, old suff, back to "Sea of Consciousness." I suppose I should just be grateful to have been spared "Unborn Child," their musical anti-abortion position paper which is overstated enough absurd and infuriating. What did they play then, I hear you ask? Mostly stuff off their new album. I'll Play For You. Also a whole slew of hits: to sound both "Hummingbird," "We May Never Pass This Way Again," "Diamond Girl," "Summer Breeze," and the song dedicated to their wives, whose It took a lot of innovation to put names escape me at the moment the concert together (sic). Actually the concert did get moving for the finale, what Dash Crofts calls "hand clapping, foot stomping, hog calling music." They've been ending all their concerts for the past few years with country music, Jimmy Seals playing an incredible fiddle. Dash Crofts on electric mandolin. Watching Crofts run around stage while he plays country is like watching Kenny Loggins' alter ego. ... playing noses . The only other time they got away from their over-arranged top 40 hits was to play "a little rock and roll" midway through the concert. Crofts displayed his ability on, surprisingly enough, the drums, and Seals got to play his nose. Yes, you read correctly. He's about as nimble at that instrument as at guitar, harmonica and fiddle. I'm not being facetious either. Actually, it's a "bit" they could drop without much protest from this listener. What they might add in its place is some of the old spirit and integrity their music used to have when they were still into playing music rather than rock 'n roll muzak. What makes it all so frustrating is that they're really dynamite musicians. And when they started out they were two of the most creative as well. . .. . . saccharine doses One thing distinctly lacking during the concert was any feeling of their Ba'hai faith. Sure, they held the usual rap session after the concert for all who wanted to stay (I couldn't; the bus back to campus was leaving and I wasn't taking any chances on having to hitch back to Buffalo at midnight). At concerts they gave several years ago, there was a certain feeling that came through in their music: that there was something special in the world and they had found the way to it. It was really rathe; moving. Now they're no different from any other duo with a "sound" all their own who've made it. I don't think it's going too far to see a direct correlation between their popularity in the pop field and their toning down of what was once such a strong religious feeling in thrir music. The purity of one and the banality of the other just don't mix well. It's just not what the media's after. and Walter Heath I should mention Walter Heath, the performer who opened for Seals and Crofts Friday night. He's a polished entertainer with a rich, cultivated voice and style which reminds me of a cross between Robert Goulet, James Brown and the Jackson Five. He lopks up to Stevie Wonder (he sang a pretty maudlin tribute to him), but he's definitely this side of bubblegum. He sounds like he's going places, though. He's been opening for Seals and Crofts for a year, and has been billed with such performers as Gladys Knight and the Pips and Helen Reddy. I keep thinking back to all those 16-year-olds at the concert There were a lot of adolescent expectations in attendance Friday night and I wonder if they've been able to sort out how they felt about the concert. I know it's taken me all weekend. Thinking it all over, all I can come up with is, what a waste of talent. But, like I said when I started out, I wasn't at all surprised.

The piece brought Waring back to the University (he visited here in 1973—74). It was typical of his dry wit and inventiveness: ruching lyricism, sudden disjointedness and non sequitur, tendus in the middle of nothing. The floor pattern tracing the initials L VB was still visible. The final piece before intermission was "Countdown" by Rudy Perez, one of his slow motion tour de forces which seemed ideally suited to Ms. Cohen's talents. To the songs of the Auvergne, she stood in one place and smoked a cigarette, moved her head, swooped and extended one arm, the exact changing of the head or elbows stood up exposing a whole world in process.

The thing I dislike most about Chaplin is his frequent assumption as a that everyone watching him adores him, rationalizing cuteness charming, substitute for comedy. In Funny Lady, Barbra isn't funny, demands musical or anything else except there. She expects worship. close Her "Funny Lady" is cold, manipulative and egocentric, a Moving how she constituted and constitutes herself as an artist. Her early training was in Tel Aviv with a woman interested in many of the arts besides dance. Her strictly formal training began at a rather late age when she entered the Julliard School in 1965. As a result, she seems to be interested in the bodily and spiritual source of movement, and it was this authenticity that commanded her performance. As a dancer she is concerned with control, with keeping the center there. One almost wants an abandon at times to ease the concentration, more flung legs and sweep. Ms. Cohen doesn't depend on virtuosity or a masterful technique; instead, she fully utilizes gesture: face, arms and hands. Consequently her statements seemed individualized and personally Hendrix and the United States of America. It ended with a film image of Winnie the Pooh floating off with a balloon towards Andromeda. This dance seemed to be attempting the most of all the pieces but in doing so it wasn't subtle enough, its images long abandoned by the culture it celebrates. It didn't appeal too much to me, though it might have five years ago. The Cornell Theatre acquited itself well in its supporting role, although some of us were worried. The stage was a little glary, but the overhanging balconies and recessed stage behind the dance space were not as distracting as expected. The Office of Cultural Affairs rented curtains to block out the slanting overhead windows and only a few patrons complained about the absence of chairs. The next dance event in the Cornell will be the Physical Education Department Dance Repertory in mid-April. Friday, 28 March 1975 .

Oh, wait a minute it just says "Justin Hayward and John Lodge" 1 (guitarist and bassist of the temporarily disbanded Moodies) which is only 2/5's of the group. 2/5's does not equal one whole, now does it? Well, let me put it on and see how it sounds. Powll! Oh My Lord! 11 It is almost the Moody Blues themselves (well, Moodies a la Seventh Sojourn, anyway). These two upstarts, along with the production wisdom of Tony Clarke (who produced the other Moody Blues albums) and the lush orchestra of Peter Knight ("Knights in White Satin"), have adequately resurrected that "mood" that us Moodies have craved for so long. Though the songs are rather simple both lyrically and musically (if only Lodge would drop that nasty series of chords that he picked up on his "Seventh Sojourn" and which every post -Seventh Sojourn Moodies freak thinks is the only riff that he talented voice (as if that wasn't enough) and boring knows), those beautiful, soothing melodies which guitar riffs?

Moodies, you have not seen anything till the real But, you may ask, what has John Lodge thing comes out. —Gerald Maltz contributed to this album other than his most — — Journey (Columbia) All you Santana fans, perk up and take note. Here's something to get those brain cells moving. Just sit back and try your ingenuity at this multiple guessing game. 1. Who wrote "Black Magic Woman?" a. Peter Green b. Carlos Santana c.

Santana split up b. a chemistry professor got a pie thrown in his face c. Susie Homemaker's been baking magic brownies again If you answered "a" to all the above, you're definitely on your toes (musically at least). What all this perforated jargon simply means is that what once was, is no longer. Santana has split up into THE NEW Santana and a group called Journey. Gregg Rolie, keyboard player, and Neal Schon, lead guitarist, have emancipated their souls to follow the song of the Succulus. Soaring to new heights, their first LP as a group is definitely unique. Aynsley Dunbar (drums), George Tickner (rhythm guitar), and Ross Valory (bass and piano) have also added their talents, making this a decent album. Usually when old members of a group split to form their own group, the influences remain. Certainly Journey is no exception. The music is melodic: it's gentle and unearthly, like Santana. However, a new dimension has been added, making the album deeply moving and intimate. The lyrics are uniquely personal, yet universal. They give an outstanding insight into the longing and aspirations of each individual and also the entire generation. So let the sun shine , It's just begun You've given all you could to anyone Well don't you lose it Don't run away It's getting stronger, day after day. And while the music is of a complex texture, it throbs from sheer energy with each piercing note of pain. Now don't get the impression that this LP will make you crash. Far from it. You'll get deeply involved in the swaying stylus and small contusions on that disc; guaranteed for a rush. And even though three cuts are instrumentals with room for development, they do have a charm of their own. It all adds up to a pretty nice album. So I'll make this curt but concise. , , come with us and try and learn What's on your mind Open your ear and eyes and let's see what you can find.

AM Radio will soon have some new songs hitting the top ten spots on the charts. Seals and Crofts, two of the most versatile musicians ever to come out of Texas, and well-known for songs which incorporate elements of their Ba'hai faith, have cut a new album, I'll Play For You. If there is one message which comes through on this album it is that the rock 'n roll-folksy-mandolin muzak machine is here to stay. meant for anyone over the age of sweet 16 parties, puppy love and rosy-eyed romantic visions of the And they all lived happily ever after . . . cosmos. What I haven't decided yet is whether Seals and Crofts are just totally commercially oriented (i.e., in it just for the money), or whether they're really as naive as the audience they're writing for. One of the few (two) songs in which their faith comes into the album at all is an almost-charming tale of a rabbit found frozen to death and the lesson . . purity and originality of their of "See My Life" and "Sea of Consciousness." Their first album, on which these songs appear, burst with a lightness and a spntaneity nowhere to be found on I'll Play For You. It has popular-jazzy to death by been smothered overarrangement. Gone is the soft and lilting melodiousness, both instrumental and vocal, which made "Antoinette" on Year of Sunday so haunting. It is this same quality which runs through "Hummingbird" and even "Diamond Girl," although the progression is clearly away from folk-like simplicity, and towards the more popular, lavishly produced arrangements, Gone is the earliest music, rock 'n roll I'll Play For You don't sound characteristically Seals and Crofts. It is that the uniqueness of their music has evolved into their "sound" in the AM-Radio-DJ sense of the word. Seals and Crofts' harmonies are still lovely, their timing perfect. But as far as creative potential is concerned, they seem to have run their course. Just listen to any album they've put out from Summer Breeze up to this latest disappointment. Then listen to their first albums, ending with Year of Sunday. The difference is readily apparent. It's really sad, because they are fine musicians, something which comes across in spite of the plastic (vinyl?) sound. Jimmy Seals performs admirably on guitar, banjo, fiddle, saxophone and harmonica. Dash Crofts is responsible for the electric and acoustic mandolin and mandola, one of the unique components of their sound. He is also quite adept on drums. But for all this talent, the material just doesn't make it. The songs on I'll Play For You are the best The musical proclivity and in bubblegum. proficiency which produced it are apparent in each song, but each stands equally as an equivocation to pop music culture. Conspicuous by their absence on this album are the once abundant references to Baha'Huh and the Ba'hai teachings. The more predominant theme by far is love in its sappiest, most saccharine mode. In "Fire and Vengeane," a song which "moves and grooves" to a regularly patterned dance beat, underscored by a monotonous boppy beat. Which is not to say that the songs on it teaches of God's beneficence and wisdom. I did say almost-charming. It would have made a poignant parable, but the child like yet highly pedantic posture of the lyrics just doesn't work. He was frozen as solid as he could be A nd Dad cried as he knelt beside him. And he asked God how could you be so cruel And his heart broke for the little white rabbit But you see that the owl would never have been so gentle And God is so kind. The only other song which bears any mention of the Ba'hai faith is "Blue Bonnet Nation." If you aren't convinced yet that Seals and Crofts are to be less than admired for their musical endeavors these days, then listen to this song. Way down yonder in the blue bonnet nation People been a-waiting just to hear His sweet Name Way down yonder where there's desolation People irresistably drawn to His Flame Hungry for the life, I'm so hungry for the life know that it exists, for to my Ups have kissed The feet of the century of his being. . . accompanied by flowing vocals in Seals and All fine and good and in keeping with the usual Crofts-harmony (and chosen here as example metaphors, but closely followed by the following because it's so typical of their present "smooth" chorus, which is, mind you, sung shrilly and style), the lyrics run: theatrically, complete with prolonged "ohs" to a Love steady rock 'n roll beat.

The magic of this novel and the ones that followed it attracted such an enthusiastic audience, it is no wonder that when Hesse's first major work is printed in paperback, the author's name on the cover dwarfs the title. Peter Camemind is the story of a young man growing up in a small, remote hamlet in the Swiss countryside, surrounded by nature in its most beautiful, undistrubed state. A monk at a nearby monastery recognizes in Peter the potential of an outstanding writer, and Peter is offered a scholarship to attend school in a distant town, which he accepts. Though at first excited by the novelty of a formal education, Peter eventually tires of it, unable to comprehend the meaning or value of his lessons. It is not until he is introduced to classic literature that his interest is aroused and he develops a true zeal for learning. Enthralled by the works of the masters, Peter begins writing poems and stories on his own, eventually succeeding in getting some of them published. Now able to earn his own living, he leaves the university and sets out in search of inspiration for his writing. Driven on by his restlessness, Peter journeys through parts of Italy and Switzerland in search of truth and beauty. His rural upbringing has left him with a deep love and respect for the natural beauty that surrounds him, and he feels the presence of unfamiliar mountains and countryside beckoning him ever onward. During the course of his travels, Peter forms one very strong friendship, falls in love three times, anchthrough his relationships with others, succeeds in enriching their lives and his own. He finally realizes that he is living the life of a fish out of water, and a powerful longing to return home leads his spirit to inner peace. Hesse has written a simple, beautiful novel that communicates his message of love for all living things. He claims that love can make us immune to all worldly ills, and by consideripg even sorrow and death as brothers and sisters, we will not fear or dread them when they appear. He means to show Peter’s restlessness as a typical example of the nervous, unfulfilled nature we all possess and will continue to possess until we too can learn the message of love, and set ourselves at peace with the world -Cary Trestyn Visual arts In Norton Hall's Gallery 219, Charlie Clough is exhibiting a show entitled Realizing Fantasy/Fantasizing Reality, running from now until April 8.

As the film opens, the authorities are about to ransack the tenements of the foreign-born in the infamous Palmer-Hoover raids. Thousands were rounded up, and deported in the wake of the hysterical "Red Scare." In the photographs of crowds taken that night, a familiar face was seen in one of them. It was the face of Bartolomeo Vanzetti, a poor fish peddler, who had been hounded out of one job after another for his participation in attempts to organize workers to factory resist the horrible conditions prevalent in American industry. Frame up Within a few days, Vanzetti and his fiend, Nicola Sacco, a skilled shoemaker, were picked up for questioning. Pistols were found on the men and they were detained.

From 1901-1920, over 14 million immigrants came into the United States. Expecting to find the "land of milk and honey," most found only a land of poverty and misery. Sacco and Vanzetti arrived in 1908, but neither knew the other until 1916. Vanzetti went hungry for days as he hunted for a job, finally getting one as a dishwasher in a hot, dirty kitchen. He worked later as a miner, steelworker and railroad worker, and particpated in the workers’ struggles to better their bleak lives.

After being picked up for questioning, they were charged with the murder and robbery at South Braintree. The trial began in 1921, in a climate of controversy and anti-communist hysteria. One government witness after another testified to seeing the accused, Sacco and Vanzetti, rob the South Braintree factory. It was revealed that one of these witnesses could not see more than 20 feet in front of him when asked by the defense attorney to identify an object inside the courtroom. Other witnesses were later found to have perjured themselves on the stand out of fear and intimidation. Sacco and Vanzetti were convicted and sentenced to die in the electric chair.

They built a factory in a riottorn section of Watts, Calif-, then helped it along until it was a $tomillion-a-year business owned lar£>ly by its employes. — — 'S st —They helped to remodel a home for troubled youngsters in Leavenworth, Kan,, and to fix up a recreation center for school dropouts and drug victims in Dallas. —They created a million new jobs in the United States last year. They pour $325 million into education each year and another $144 million yearly into the arts. Their total outlay for charity each year is about $1 billion. —They put $85 million into a new steel-making process that prevented a steel mill in Pennsylvania from closing down, saving 2000 jobs. —They give federal, state and lo cal governments more than $41 billion in annual tax revenues. Who arc “they”? Profits. The money earned over and above the expenses of operating our American business and industry. If industry were not profitable, not only would companies soon go out of business —with dire consequences to employes and stockholders —but a great variety of social and humanitarian activities would simply go by WVERTISEUEVT ADVERTISEMENT the board. It is a corporation's continued profitability that allows it to regularly put money into, say, public TV or the local symphony, and at the same time create new technology and new jobs. Profits are not, as some people seem to think, clutched in the hands of a few cigar-smoking tycoons. There are 30 million stockholders in this country who count on them; 53.5 million workers whose retirement funds, invested in stocks and bonds, depend on them; 365 million life-insurance policies in force in the United Sta’cs that depend to a great degree on dividends that profits produce. Profits are far more, of course. They are one of man’s primary incentives. Long after factories have been built and payrolls and fringe benefits paid, profits keep lights burning in offices, in laboratories, in men’s minds, spurring the almost indefinable mix of new products and ideas called progress. Paper shufflers and chart devisers in a centralized economic bureaucracy do not invent automatic transmissions, fresh-frozen foods, kidney machines, doubleknit fabrics or wonder drugs. Men in the market-place do. Stimulated by the prospect of profit, they find harder steel, brighter color television, sharper razor blades, quieter air conditioners. When millions wanted electric hair-stylcr dryers, tremendous amounts of money, planning and machinery Page fourteen . had to be channeled to that demand by companies a profit. When the dryers started rolling out, who benefited 3 The companies —sure. But the big beneficiaries were the consumers, first, because their demands were satisfied and. second, business competition quickly drove prices down. Yet, while profits are so intimately tied to the lives of all of us, the public concept of them is so distorted as to be hardly a concept at all. For example, polls indicate that the majority of Americans believe business clears about 28 cents profit on every dollar it earns. The fact is, after taxes the average U.S. company now makes a little less than a nickel profit on each sales meet seeking dollar. Certainly, in some industries the average is higher, but not very much. Mining companies, office-equipment and computer firms average between nine and ten cents on the dollar. Lumber products make around seven. Oil production and refining produce about eight. But in many industries the profit margin is much lower. Ironically, many of the lowest profit margins arc in businesses that many people assume to be making “unconscionable profits” at the consumer’s expense. Supermarkets, for instance, clear a little less than a penny on each sales dollar. In the retail-sales industry, the average profit per sales dollar is around two picture. Hut somehow we Americans remain peculiarly unconvinced. We buy a house for $28,000, sell it for $40,000, then the next day condemn someone elsc’s “pursuit of profit.” We blithely forget the realities of economics and competition. Let’s look at the profit picture on a common product —a woman’s MANUFACTURER’S COST AND PROFIT Fabrics and accessories $ 8.11 Design and factory operations 4.91 Production wages and benefits 6.86 Administrative and sales salaries 3.97 98 Taxes Profit from sales to retailer 92 Wholesale price to retailer $25.75 RETAILER’S COST AND PROFIT $25.75 Dress from manufacturer Advertising, sale markdowns, freight 5.55 6.20 Store operations 9.10 Payroll Taxes 2.10 Profit from sales to customer'. 1.30 Selling price to customer ..$50.00 dress that sells in department stores for $50. A woman examining it might conclude she could make the same dress for quite a bit less than that amount. Provided she could get the pattern (one of hundreds submitted by the manufacturers’ designers), she could indeed save money. But this dress is on the rack because the majority of women have neither the time nor the inclination to make their own. Why docs it cost 150 ? The box in the previous column gives a breakdown of costs. And it shows that a $25.75 dress that provided jobs and made a profit for people in the garment industry ends up fulfilling a consumer desire, providing livelihood for a department store’s employes, putting tax money in the public treasury and profiting the store’s owners. In the process, it becomes a $50 dress. As for that $1.30 retail profit —well, you the consumer arc the reason why it is that low. For to raise the profit margin the businessman would have to risk losing your patronage. You in the end make the decision. That’s what competition is all about.

With summation presentations beginning next Monday, it is Dacajewiah expected that the prosecution and the defense will reiterate their original arguments. The prosecution believes Mr. Quinn’s death was an isolated incident, irrelevant to anything else that happened at Attica prison that day. The defense is emphatic about the importance of understanding that a rebellion was taking place unfortunately and was a Mr. Quinn victim of the chaotic mood in the prison. They believe that the unjust and inhumane treatment the prisoners received at Attica, which caused them to rebel, must also be acknowledged as a factor in Mr. Quinn’s death. The jury will be asked to reach a verdict next week following Monday’s summation. The present Brother Dalou, who also urged everyone to attend the trials, said: Dacajewiah - ... . — - - - . get caught up in.” Although the defense has educated the jury, it also has been cited for contempt 15 or 20 times, he explained. You need a dictionary to understand what is happening in Court, Dacajewiah said. He asserted that “the so-called judge is working hand-in-hand with the prosecution,” and called the prosecutor ‘‘a typical Indian-fighter with his handlebar mustache. “Bloodshed is the only time people can see . . . nothing comes about until a traumatic experience like Attica happens,” he went on. “Expose government corruption in the courtroom,” he added, “people still won’t believe it exists.” “Not a single goddam thing has been done since 1971.” He called for people to “look at Attica 1975, the development of Special Weapons and Tactics police squads (SWAT) in Buffalo, the of the U.S. hypocrisy Constitution and the double standard of due process.” Dalou compared the way Spiro Agnew was treated to the legal harassment of the Attica Brothers. “Sure we need prisons,” he said. “What else are we going to do with the Rockefellers and Nixons?” explained that prisons one concentrate on a Dalou make negative life-style: “Burglars Jearn better burglary techniques,” he said, questioning what had been done with the $1.4 million the state allocated for prison rehabilitation.

Some students then moved east to the adjacent parking lot near Prentice Hall. Among these students were Allison Krause and Jeffrey Miller.' Company C, in the meantime, continued past the east corner of Taytor Hall, and soon found themselves on the field, directly facing the other regiments. It has the been claimed that demonstrators posed a threat to the Guard in this area, but how was it that Captain Snyder could safely walk through the crowd of students to talk with the commanding officers of Company A and Troop G on the other side of the field? At approximately 12:15 p.m., the men of Troop G knelt down and aimed their rifles at a group of students on the parking lot. One officer then fired a shot in the air, the signal for the Guardsmen to commence shooting. But the order was never heeded; and it has never been determined why the initial shot was fired. Situated on the field for at least six minutes, the Guard had to contend with allegedly “heavy” rock throwing by students on the parking lot, over 100 feet away.

Rubin Staff Writer Spectrum There’s a new sports magazine on the Buffalo newsstands that combines the format and topicality of Sport with the provinciality of the old Buffalo New Times. It’s called Buffalo Fan. The Fan, which comes out every two months, is the brainchild of publisher Jeffrey Hoffman, a junior executive with the Hoffman Printing Company of Buffalo. “It was named after and dedicated to those men and women who buy the tickets, sit in the rain, and brave the winter snowstorms for they are the lifeblood of sports,” he wrote in the inaugural issue last January. The idea for the Fan originated as a way to utilize one of the presses at Hoffman Printing. Although that particular machine printed very efficiently, it was idle because of the reduced demand for its style of printing. The Fan, besides keeping Buffalo sports enthusiasts up to date, makes Hoffman Printing more profitable. More than money However, the Fan is more than a business venture. There is nothing like it anywhere in Buffalo. “In national magazines, you might not see a story about Buffalo teams for three months at a time, even though we have three of the biggest names in pro sports right here,” Mr. Hoffman said. Newspapers, on the other hand, are primarily concerned with coverage of each sporting event on an individual basis. “Since we won’t be concerned with the day-to-day coverage and box scores, we may have a little more opportunity to present some longer, in-depth looks at certain topics,” Hoffman explained in the first issue. The magazine is not confining itself just to pro sports. Mr. Hoffman is very interested in getting collegiate sports into his publication. “If the (Buffalo) baseball team does anything this year, we would be very interested in having something about them in the Fan,” he said. In fact, stories concerning Canisius’ basketball season and college basketball in the Auditorium have already appeared. Fan comes out only six times a year which means that there just won’t be enough .space to print as many articles as Mr. Hoffman might like. However, there is a distinct possibility that it could go to nine or twelve issues per year. Strength without length The full-time staff is very small, but experienced. Besides Hoffman, who doubles as a freelance sports photographer, the only other full-timers arc editor Dick Hirsch, a local television show host, art directors Carl Herrmann and Mary Hart and assistant Editor Mitch Gerber, who moonlights as The Spectrum's copy editor. Because of limited staff, the Fan is relying heavily on local newspapermen and freelancers for copy. In the inaugural issue, stories were written about Buffalo’s famous number eleven, basketball star Bob McAdoo and Sabres flashy center Gil Perrault, by Milt Northrop of the Buffalo Evening News and Jim Peters of the Courier-Express. At the other end of the spectrum, a local dentist gave his account of marathon running on the Niagara Frontier. Hoffman indicated that although he is being very selective about what he prints right now, if Fan does expand, he might consider recruiting writers from the local colleges. In the March/April edition, Buffalo Sports Information Director Dick Baldwin has a piece about Amherst Youth Hockey. “I like the idea. It’s a very nice elite-type publication,” he said. “And with this area so sports-minded,. I think it will serve the people in a good way.” Fan seems to be catching on. Its circulation is over 30,000, although the overwhelming majority of its readership got in on a free one-year subscription offer. “Most of our mail has been pretty good,” said Hoffman. “It’s when you give the people something less than what they expect that you run into trouble.” MASCOT meeting This University’s Marketing in Society of Today (MASCOT) association has been chartered as collegiate chapter by the American Marketing Association. The next MASCOT meeting, scheduled for today at 2 p.m.. Room 307 Crosby Hall, is open to all in the University community with a professional interest. The Mighty Wrestler Editor’s note: Lynn Everard normally writes news stories in prose about Buffalo wrestling. Now that the season is over, he has the chance to describe the sport in verse. We extend our apologies to Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, whose The Village Blacksmith provided a model for this piece. The Mighty Wrestler by Lynn Everard The mighty wrestler stands; The wrestler, a brutal man is he. With bruised and beaten hands, Even the hairs on his mighty chest Are as coarse as iron strands. His teeth are chipped or crooked or gone, His nose is carved out like a plan; His brow is wet with athletic sweat, He bullies whoever he can. And looks his opponent in the face, For he fears not any man. Day in, day out, from morn till night You can watch his muscles grow; You can see him lift the massive weight. With animal strength and slow. And though he’s tired and drawn, His eyes remain aglow. Then a run around the track, And back to lift some more; When the time has come to please the scale Goes slowly through the door. And after losing 40 pounds, Finds he needs to lose 10 more. Friday, 28 March 1975 . The Spectrum . Page seventeen �GIF by Bruce Engel Though final approval from the Administration and Faculty Senate is still pending, it seems likely that Buffalo’s highly competitive wrestling program will be a charter member of the newly formed Eastern Wrestling Conference. The move simply has too many good things going for it. In one fell swoop, entrance into the conference will simplify scheduling, reduce traveling costs, upgrade the level of competition, increase excitement and probably generate revenue. As my mother the bookkeeper would say, “That’s a lot on the credit side.” The move is also consistent with the entrance of eight of Buffalo’s other teams into the Western New York Big Four along with Buffalo State, Canisius and Niagara last October. The women’s program followed suit soon after when it started its own big four. Hockey has been in the ECAC’s Division Two for several years, and while this is not a conference in the strict sense that everybody plays everybody during the regular season, there is a post season tournament setup to look forward to. A year ago virtually all of Buffalo’s program was independent. If the wrestling conference is approved, then only the fencing team and a couple of women’s teams will not have some affiliation. There are no fencing leagues anyway. The fact that the Western New York big four will not compete in wrestling, since Buffalo’s conference mates do not participate in the sport, gives wrestling a team that has been disproportionately strong in relation to most of Buffalo’s other teams, and the opportunity to stumble into a most desirable setup. And it was, in a manner of speaking, a happy accident. Penn State and Pitt had dropped out of the ECAC and are discarding some of their weak traditional opponents in favor of stronger ones. The result is that a school like Penn State, which had previously refused to schedule the Bulls because the team didn’t have the big name, eventually sought out Buffalo, because they know the Bulls can wrestle with the best in the East. And it will be the best in the East. It may even be the best in the country. Buffalo coach Ed Michael reports that the conference coaches would like to see the group become known as the Big Six. And the name is a good one. No other wrestling conference in the country is six deep with really good teams. Now, lest you think these circles are too lofty for the Bulls to handle, keep in mind that Buffalo was ranked 20th in the nation this season, and that they beat two conference schools. Clarion State and Lock Haven State. They would probably have lost to Penn State, and beaten Bloomsburg. A match with Pitt would have been too close for even a fearless predictor like me to predict. So you’re left with a conference record of either 4-1 or 3-2 against some of the best in the East, and that ain’t bad. Of course, just because Buffalo wrestling is on that level now doesn’t necessarily mean they will be there forever. The program has been slipping slightly in the last two years. Theoretically, next year’s squad may take an even greater dip-with the loss of stars Jim Young, Charlie Wright and Emad Faddoul. The trio had a total of nearly fifty wins and will be sorely missed. The wrestling Bulls will probably have some rebuilding to do next season, but recruiting gets tougher and tougher all the time. With the new special admissions program it will be easier to get good wrestlers into school, though one can’t be sure that it will be enough. Ultimately, success may depend upon Michael’s ability to get some scholarship help from somewhere. He’s done so well this far, he might even make it. Of course, the Bulls have been beating scholarship wrestlers for a long time now and they might just keep doing it, even without any grants-in-aid. Balance and depth is the key. If you don’t have the big stars, you have to have a lot of good people that can hurt the star studded teams in places where they don’t have stars. Since taking over five years ago, Michael has taken a good program and made it a.great one. Now, if the conference is approved, he enters phase two, keeping it great while playing the best. It’s too bad I’m graduating, because that is going to be worth watching.

Growing support for marijuana reform by Sharon Maravalli Spectrum Staff Writer Public support for marijuana reform continues to increase. Decriminalization legislation is pending or will soon be introduced in 22 states, including New York and Washington, D.C. Governor Hugh Carey recently announced support for “a system of fines or mandatory attendance at health clinics” instead of existing marijuana laws, which mandate sentences of up to IS years for possession of one ounce or more. A bill currently before the New York State legislature calls for a regulatory system of legalized marijuana sales similar to that governing the sale of alcohol. Another bill would remove all sanctions against possession of marijuana for personal use (four ounces or less), and would legalize not-for-profit “transfer” of small amounts. Additionally, sales penalties would drop from a 15 year felony to a one year misdemeanor. However, sale to persons under sixteen years old would remain a felony, carrying a four year prison term. Re-evaluated Erie County Sheriff Mike Amico recently expressed dissatisfaction with the state’s drug laws. “The laws on the books as they effect the use of heroin and hard drugs are proper and should be retained. Anyone dealing with heroin and hard drugs should go to gait for the rest of their life,” said Mr. Amico. “As for the laws applying to lesser drugs such a marijuana, these laws perhaps should be re-evaluated to make the punishment fit the crime,” he said. The California State Judiciary Committee recently approved a bill adopting a citation system with a maximum $100 fine that is expected to become law this legislative session, according to a report issued by the National Organization For the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML). Officials in Oregon, the first state to decriminalize the possession of one ounce or less of marijuana, have reported that after one year most citizens and law enforcement agencies approve of the new law, which replaced a one year prison penalty with a maximum $100 fine. Additionally, offenders do not go to jail and are not given a criminal record, but are issued citations similar to those used for traffic violations. Penalties unjust The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYP1RG), charged at the February 21 meeting of the State Assembly Codes Committee that “the current New York law dealing with possession of small quantities of marijuana is unjust. “The severe penalties simply do not match the seriousness of the crime,” explained Richard Sokolow, director of NYPIRG at the State University at Buffalo. “It is ridiculous that possession of even one ounce of marijuana will subject a person to the same penalties as arson in the fourth degree, rape in the third degree and criminally negligent homicide,” he said. NYPIRG has also demanded revision of the legal definition of “sale” currently defined as the handing of a single marijuana cigarette to another person even if no money changes hands. This “sale” is a class C felony and subjects the seller to the 15 year penalty. Donald Ross, Executive Director of central NYPIRG in Albany, testified at the February meeting that the “arbitrary and unrealistic penalties for use of soft drugs” results in “disrespect among students for the workings of government.” He said such “unrealistic penalties” create a “tolerance for lawlessness” and eventually contribute to - “campus cynicism.” delta-9-THC The U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) has been required since 1971 to report annually about marijuana use. The 1974 report, Marijuana and Health, offers no “definitive evaluation of marijuana’s harmfulness or safety for humans on the basis of scientific —continued on page 4— The final State University of New York (SUNY) budget, which must be approved by the state legislature by April 1, may be $10 million lower than the figure SUNY requested, according to Albert Somit, Executive Vice President. Some departments, fearing the worst, have already specified which faculty will be dropped first if any personnel cuts are necessary. However, Richard Mann, treasurer of the Colleges, believes these actions have been taken “to demonstrate the seriousness of the problem,” rather than to “finger anybody out for execution.” Most departments, he believes, have given at least some thought to where cuts would be “least painful,” a phrase which he said did not apply to the Colleges. No fall back Because the Colleges already have so little money for wages and salaries, money earmarked for temporary services has in some cases been used to pay instructors, Mr. Mann explained. If these funds are cut, he added, there won’t be much for the Colleges to fall back on. “We barely have enough now to run a minimal program,” Mr. Mann emphasized. “We’ve been just about scraping along.” Gordon Harris, acting Chairman of the Chemistry Department, termed next year’s outlook “bad news.” He said the Department would have particular trouble obtaining classroom supplies and equipment, if the cuts materialize, and that larger courses like Chem 101 would definitely be affected. He also predicted that “soft money” funds for would be the area library books and lab supplies most likely to be reduced. Philip Miles, Biology Department Chairman and his assistant, James Davoli, emphasized that “the realities of the times cannot be escaped.” Both agreed that careful managment of whatever funds are available will be the primary goal of the Biology Department, to better cope with anticipated cutbacks in classes and personnel. Mr. Davoli said that “times are hard everywhere,” and that other items on the state budget are as deserving of the same or.greater level of funds as the University. “Do we have the right to ask for more money, perhaps at the cost of the food stamps program? Or unemployment benefits?” he questioned. the cuts will inevitably result in either: lower quality instruction for more students, or instruction at present levels for fewer students.

Dr. Ramm added that there is a real possibility that some physics programs, besides the summer ones, will have to be cut. And Dr. Harris, who is only acting Chairman of the Chemistry Department, said that next semester’s departmental head is “going to have a glorious summer trying to figure the whole thing out.” No failing Jonathan Reichert of the English Department expressed concern that tightening of the budgets might lead some faculty to offer courses simply for the students they will attract, so that additional funds will flow into the department. “I’m afraid teachers will literally not be able to afford to fail students,” Dr. Reichert said, stressing that “decisions should be made based on the quality of the courses, not necessarily their popularity.” Discussing the possibility of services cutbacks.

The RSB and RU agree with the SYL that the US must get out of Southeast Asia. However, while the RSB and RU preach “victory” for Cambodia, the SYL claims this does not mean victory for the working class people. They want nothing less than communism for all of Indochina. The RU also hopes to disprove the common claim that students can have no influence on contemporary affairs.

Government (PRG), By 1973, 37 foreign countries had recognized the Provisional Revolutionary Government and established diplomatic relations, while five others allowed the PRG to maintain information offices. So why are the people fleeing from the “Viet Cong,” as our nightly newscasters tell us? Why would the media deliberately falsify the news to mislead the American people? A possible answer to this lies in the incestuous relationship between the Ford-Rockefeller administration, the mass-media, and the monopoly corporations and banks operating in Southeast Asia. Monopolies Take for example, CBS. The Rockefeller family controls a financial group (bound by interlocking directorates) that also controls CBS. The Rockefeller family also has a controlling interest in many large corporations and banks, including Standard Oil Company, which was awarded oil drilling contracts by Thieu, off the cost of South Vietnam. Furthermore, the Rockefeller family has a controlling interest in Chase Manhattan Bank, whose Saigon Branch has financed various profit-making enterprises in South Vietnam, while the people sink deeper into poverty. It is quite apparent that if South Vietnam and Cambodia “fall,” so too will Chase Manhattan Bank and Standard Oil, from that part of the world. “Losing South Vietnam and Cambodia” means that the Rockefeller family and other monopolists will lose the power to take whatever they want from the riches of these countries; they will lose the power to move business operations to a part of the world where dictators outlaw trade unions so wages of 35 to 50 cents an hour can be paid. Perhaps this makes clear the persistant cry from the sabre-wielding Ford and Rockefeller administration for billions more American tax dollars to beef up the sagging military dictatorships in Saigon and Phnom Penh. It’s not just a coincidence that we are suddenly being barraged with news reports and film clips about the “fall” of South Vietnam and Cambodia.

This installment examines the days preceeding events fateful the of May 4. by Sparky Alzamora Campus Editor Students Kent State University in Ohio did not react favorably to President Nixon’s April 30th announcement of a offensive stepped-up into Cambodia, but the mood on campus was far from violent the following day. A group of anti-war demonstrators, made up mostly of history students, rallied around the Victory Bell on the Commons, protesting what they felt was a return to President policy Johnson’s of at non-political Midwestern university. Even when members of the Black United Students, angry over recent problems with the National Guardsmen on campus, called for immediate student action, a mere four hundred students attended the demonstration. May 1 was the first really pleasant day of the year, and many fled the confines of a campus traditionally known as a “suitcase school.” It was not until the evening that the atmosphere began growing tense. - “victory-at-any-cost.” But President Nixon seemed to downplay this belief, explaining that the involvement in Cambodia was primarily taken “not for the purpose of expanding war into Cambodia but for the purpose of ending the war in Vietnam.” Out of twenty thousand students attending Kent State at the time, only five hundred turned out for the rally at the Victory Bell, a quite typical display of student activism at a ‘The Chosen Few’ At night, a number of students retreated to the line of bars on North Water Street, apparently not very concerned with the invasion of Cambodia. With the temperature in the seventies, stood along the street, members of “The watching Chosen Few,” a local motorcycle gang, perform feats of daring on many their bikes. The celebrated bonfire on Water Street, mistakingly blamed on the students, was caused by “The Chosen Few,” who collected trash with which to build it. By midnight, the street had been illegally closed-off by the gang and a group of twenty or so students began chanting cries against the war, breaking windows along the way.

There was also some confusion as to whether the curfew on campus, imposed by a university to prohibiting damage injunction to campus property, never reached many of the students who left Kent for the weekend. In the meantime, Lieutenant Barnette conversed with Robert E. Matson, Kent Vice President for Student Affairs, on what would happen if student “rioters” became violent again. (University President Robert White was away in Iowa that weekend.) Barnette told Matson that the Guard would assume “complete control” of the town and campus if they deemed it necessary.

Invasion at It has been determined that General Del Corso, upon hearing students had reports that prevented firemen from dosing the flames in the ROTC building, ordered his troops to “shoot any rioter who cuts a fire hose.” Mr. Del Corso had the campus by 11:55 a.m., using cleared brandished bayonets and tear gas to disperse the students. Only a few rocks were actually thrown, one student suffered an eight-inch bayonet slash across his right cheek and a stab wound in and the leg, inflicted by two National Guardsmen.

Kent State seemed to be under martial law in the early morning hours of Sunday, May 3. The Guard, some of -whom had not rested since a trucker’s strike in Cleveland, which lasted from the previous Wednesday until 6 p.m. the night, roamed Saturday campus, in full battle gear, riding army trucks and jeeps through the pathways between buildings. Surprisingly, there was little talk of closing the University down; President White, back from Iowa, agreed with Governor Rhode’s decision to keep Kent open. A crucial election primary was two days away, and Rhodes needed to emphasize his stand on law and order at the expense of the students at Kent State. In a speech broadcast that day, Governor Rhodes called the — . worse than the students brownshirts and the Communist element and also the night riders and the vigilantes.

Students gathered in a peaceful demonstration at the Commons around 8 p.m., but with the absence of Del Corso, the Ohio Highway Patrol assumed control and ordered the Guard to impose an immediate curfew shortly before 9 p.m. The demonstrators, however, knew they were allowed the right to “peaceful assembly, dissent demonstration, or movement about the campus” under the Ohio Riot Act as so by Mayor decreed Satrom. Disregarding commanding officer Jones’ order, the students were subsequently and teargassed headed for President White’s home and Prentice Gate. The National Guardsmen repelled the group at White’s home but met up with a strong force of students at Prentice. Again rocks were thrown, and the Guard responded by shooting tear gas and bayonet wounds. Soon, the area resembled a battle field with exploding M-79 grenade launchers and firing gas, a helicopter hoving overhead. returning Students, from relatively quiet weekends at home, were almost immediately made aware of the perilous situation on campus. By the day’s end, at least a few students had to be serious hospitalized for injuries, and thousands needed reassurance that the awful events of the past three days would not take place again.

Why then, would Haldeman, a man of intelligence and practicality, refuse which have become acknowledge activities to historical record? The answer lies in the man's self-delusion. Haldeman was not being tight-lipped to avoid embarrassment for himself and others; a more plausible theory is that he actually believes he did nothing wrong, except for an occasional mistake in judgement. It was this total blindness to wrongdoing that made Nixon and his cohorts so they actually believed all of the seamy things dangerous — they did were justifiable under the circumstances. Without a doubt, Nixon and Haldeman will continue to conceive of themselves as martyrs, convinced that they were hounded out of office by a press establishment that did not and could not share their higher perception of visualize the forthcoming government. One can a page or two of righteous Nixon-Haldeman memoirs misgiving, followed by several voluminous chapters describing how the illegal break-ins, wiretaps and the enemies lists they authorized were for God and country. — That Mr. Haldeman said nothing insightful about Watergate is therefore less important than why he said nothing, just as the outrages committed are less significant than the underlying values which rationalized these acts. Fortunately, Nixon and Haldeman fell before they could do further damage. But one need only leaf through a few Went to the coffee house in the first floor Norton cafeteria on Friday night. It was rather quiet and very enjoyable. The lead act was a Canadian I had seen at the Mariposa Folk Festival and liked, by name of Adam Mitchell. He did a wide variety of funky songs of his own writing, based on a range of experiences beginning with what it is like to grow up in a small town where it is necessary to have a car to breathe once you are past 17. He went onward through such things as trying to buy gas with long “Goddamn hippies ain’t served here, been hair that way for goddamn years, and we sure as hell ain’t goddamn startin now. Why don’t you buy some goddamn soap, quit makin all that goddamn dope, and watch your goddamn language in our town.” and other sundry experiences. Pleasant and personable guy who played a nice guitar. The other person who played was from Buffalo. John Brady has been around for a while. He has even been mentioned within this hallowed space on occasion. On Friday night he chose to do his own material, noting that he needed the exposure more than the other people whose material he also does. John plays a steady, unspectacular guitar and has a good voice sort of in the area of Steve Goodman’s, but with a bit more range. What sets Mr. Brady apart is the songs. Musically I can’t tell you much because I don’t know much, but I liked them for whatever that is worth. What really affected me were the lyrics. They are also somewhat hard to be specific about since they kept getting to me enough to make me anxious, and I would go off somewhere else in my head and do something for a while until 1 got it together again enough to listen some more. This is a man who is in the business of talking about the way his head works, what he feels, what he perceives, and his responses to the world. I have already plugged Jackson Browne’s “Late For The Sky.” It is a fine, fine album. In it Browne lays it down about as straight as I have ever heard anyone do it. There is a line floating in my head from somewhere, and when he laid it, it stayed laid.” Browne does it. John Brady is a little quieter about it, but the same job gets done or was by the material he sang romantic, and he sings a lot of Friday night. He is a what love and not being in love, being in songs about other in either from one to the and moving direction, by whatever means. They are primarily personal experience songs, and the lyrics are written by someone who has been in the business of noticing what goes on in his head for quite a while. What comes out are a variety of very clear, very lucid, statements about what it is like to feel certain kinds of things, or experience certain situations, from inside John Brady. This turns out to be a trip worth — - - “ ... — taking. I must admit that a certain amount of the above is supposition. Setting and set play an important part in any experience, musical or otherwise, and 1 was in a set that made me very sensitive to the kinds of things he was trying to say. One of the ways 1 conceptualize myself is that 1 am pretty good at caring about people, but not very good at loving them. I was at the coffee house with someone that catches me somewhere in the hole between caring about and loving. My sense is that it should be impossible to care about someone past a certain point without loving them. If it isn’t impossible, we should at least make it illegal. It hurts too much not to do something about it. So when you put someone stuck in that place me in a certain setting ... John Brady’s playing his songs. .. with somebody else who was much surer of her feelings and paid a high cost for them, there is a certain level of feeling which makes it hard to be totally, or even largely, objective. In between trying to figure out what to do with our hands and eyes, we both seemed to be affected by the music. So, I think he is worth going to see. Fortunately, you have a chance to do that this very night. (The night of which I hope I am speaking is Wednesday, things have been a little tricky lately when it comes to deadlines with vacations and all. The Central Park Grill (CPG) has the good taste to present John Brady each Wednesday and Sunday evening. THE CPG, if you are out enough not to know where it is, lies directly on down Main Street.

Kaplan to ther Adolph Hitler fan club to see and learn his lesson before committing After their mild case of minimum security institutions, some Watergate criminals are talking about prison reform. No one who gets anywhere near our prison system can go away unshaken. It is barbaric. It is so bad, in all respects, that reformers hardly know where to begin; and respected panels have seriously come to the conclusion that the only real reform would be the abolition of prisons as we know them. Our society is afraid to look at what it does to the men in our jails. It has a divided mind and a bad conscience on the whole subject of punishment. It juggles three partly-conflicting penal theories in its mind, and does not act consistently on any one of them. The first theory is that of revenge. This is the oldest justification for penalties in our traditions the lex talionis, an eye for an eye. A man must “pay” for his crimes. This motive is very deep in human nature, and the heaviest clamor for punishment seems always to come from this source. The criminal should not “get away with it.” He should be made to suffer. But our system, while trying to satisfy this desire, is a bit troubled by it. A man must “pay” but pay whom? The original lex talionis made it clear that God, who looks out for men and their eyes, must be “paid” a criminal eye when an innocent eye has been taken away. But we are no longer very confident about speaking for God, collecting his debts, as it or acting for him were, from the guilty who have offended him. So we talk of a criminal,paying his “debt” to society. Society, in this case, is presumably speaking for the aggrieved party in a crime, collecting a certain quantity of pain in return for pain inflicted. The point of prison is to make suffer mentally, at least; suffer, people suffer various kinds of privation, the loss of liberty, of luxury, of convenience. That is why reformers always hear that prisons are meant to be unpleasant. One should not make things soft for people while society is supposed to be making things hard for them. But this revenge seems rather pointless. What does society get when it is paid various quanta of pain? Nothing really useful, except the satisfaction of revenge which is spiritually dangerous. So at this point another theory is the theory of Deterrence. A man brought in who “pays his debt” gives society something As a student at UB, I would like to draw attention to a new club that has apparently joined the University Community. This organization which I shall “affectionately” label the “Adolph Hitler Fan Club” (AHFC), has initiated a campaign to, once 'again, defame the character of Jews. In recent weeks, the Amherst Campus has been besieged by an example of Nazi “art.” If you were to take a walk through the Millard Fillmore Academic Core (from the Student Club to Clifford Furnas College), you would see examples of swastikas and the standard anti-Semitic comments reproduced by the AHFC to remind Jewish students of their years of persecution. I suppost that Jewish students should thank the AHFC for reminding them to keep their guard up against the threat of further advancements in anti-Semitic campaigns. However, in the interest of keeping the walls at Amherst clean (since the moral and intelligent reasons for halting this behavior are - apparently not evident), please stop your stupidity for your own good “The life you defame may be — your own!!” Sanders - Insulting journalism To the Editor. I’ve just finished reading Sports Editor Bruce Engel’s article (March 19th) on Mr. Bill Sanford, coach of the State University at Buffalo swimming team. To be honest, I’m having a great deal of difficulty understanding why Mr. Engel, a credible and somewhat professional journalist, should choose to verbally attack a man who through 25 years of coaching experience and hard work has gained the - respect and admiration of this campus and his fellow administrators. Mr. Engel, in a previous article in The Spectrum, referred to Coach Sanford as “a bitter old man.” Rather than apologizing, Mr. Engel has chosen to justify and clarify that previous statement. Many of Mr. Engel’s statements ate, in my opinion, insulting, inappropriate, and beyond the reasonable limit of responsible journalism. As a writer and former Sports Editor of The Spectrum, I have known Mr. Engel for four years. 1 have known Mr. Sanford for 10 years. In my undergraduate days, when i was feeling out of sorts, I would stop by the athletic department and have long chats with Coach Sanford. His door was always open, and, for some inexplicable reason, my spirits and outlook would be much improved. It was a real treat when Coach Sanford would share with me some of his experiences and personal philosophies garnered over a long and illustrious career. If this makes a man “old” because he is able to share the past with people who care, then Mr. Engel is correct. Mr. Sanford is an “old” man. But “bitter,” Mr. Engel? Maybe it’s because I’m not perceptive, but, it seems to me that Coach Sanford has somehow gracefully surrendered to the autumn of his life with a contentment which I wish was mine. Richard useful because he is an example set up for others by Garry Wills To the Editor. Garrett INVESTIOATINO Hi L. Baumgarten Class of’70 - - — crimes of their own. To use the prisoner as a teaching device to warn off potential felons from a life of crime. Society gets its “pay” in the good conduct of these non-imprisoned people. Deterrence obviously works in certain cases, as anyone with children knows. But the threat must be real and immediate, and normally addressed to a specific person and a specific term (“If you don’t make your bed right now, you can’t watch TV tonight.”) But the people who are supposed to benefit from specific men’s imprisonment are not identified, since they have not yet committed the crimes we are trying to prevent. This makes the lesson rather diffuse and ineffectual. Besides, the crimes of violence we most fear are often performed in the heat of passion, out of psychotic compulsion, by people culturally hardened against such gentle lessons as the punishment of somebody else. The record is discouraging. We never had more people in and we never had more crimes being prisons Obviously committed. our educational instrument is not working. So a third theory is trotted in, to try to make sense of the mess. If we cannot deter unspecified people out of the general public from committing crimes, then at least we should be able to deter the criminals we have caught. It is impossible retroactively to deter them from committing the crime that put them in prison, but we should be able to deter them from repeating the crime. So is bom the theory of to meet its very special kind of Rehabilitation failure. Far from preventing crimes, prisons train and harden men in lawlessness, forcing them into futures of crime (they also train the guards to criminality). So all three theories prove unhelpful. Indeed, they cripple each other. The Revenge theory demands harsh conditions which undermine the Rehabilitation approach. The Deterrence theory partly works on the middle class because the Revenge theory has made our prisons class ghettos, again undermining any hope of Rehabilitation. Our whole attitude toward crime and punishment needs the most thorough criticism, just to clear away accumulated mental rubbish. Reform is stalled until we perform this act of intellectual slum clearance. — - Gets off easy To the Editor. In reference to my cousin’s letter [Jonathan D.

Through greater cooperation with student leaders, a viable intercollegiate and intramural program seems assured, and a general feeling of security now permeates Clark Hall. Why then are smiles on the faces of athletic department personnel about as common as future jobs for college graduates these days? The answer is located in the horrendous record of Buffalo’s competing intercollegiate athletic teams. Except for the wrestling.and soccer teams, which had outstanding seasons, Buffalo’s athletic teams were losers. Basketball had an 8-17 record, the Hockey Bulls were 11-18-1, and the baseball team took a terrible shellacking down south. Green Bay Packer’s immortal coach, Vince Lombardi, put it right on the line, when he said, “Winning isn’t everything; it’s the only thing.” There is, in fact, a great deal of truth to that additional axiom that “nobody likes a loser.” And, as the varsity Bulls continue to lose a large percentage of their games, student interest drops accordingly. Dan Daniels, the Athletic Department’s business manager, has confirmed that only 11 student tickets were sold for a recent basketball game at Memorial Auditorium against the University of Pittsburgh. For a school of over 25,000 full and part-time students, this is incredible. And the problem is not the staff. Leo Richardson in basketball, Eddie Wright in hockey, and Bill Monkarsh in baseball are competent coaches and proven winners Given the appropriate means of recruitment, these coaches could produce exciting and highly competitive intercollegiate varsity teams But in the great scheme of the State University system, Buffalo is ineligible for grants-in-aid based solely on athletic ability. The ultimate result has been that Buffalo has been clobbered in almost every sport by schools stocked with scholarship athletes. At an ever increasing rate, at least among the better athletic schools, this University is in danger of rapidly becoming the “patsy” of the east; that is, a school which other universities use as a showcase for a good athletic drubbing. And this, no doubt, is dismaying to Athletic Department officials. The general consensus is that New York State must come to the aid of athletics if a revitalization of the intercollegiate program is to take place. Scholarships and financial aid based on athletic ability must once again be considered as a workable alternative. Philosophical arguments aside, the State University of Buffalo simply cannot compete on a varsity level without the re-institution of scholarships. That is the reality of the situation. Until this issue is resolved, Buffalo must make do with what it has. The beat of “nobody likes a loser” goes on and on. Grants and jobs for athletes Tody’s sports page presents two differing views of athletics and athfefic scholarships. In conjunction with those views, we present this brief rundown of the extent of aid, through grants or jobs, that benefit Buffalo’s varsity athletes. Basketball: Most of the varsity basketball players receive aid and the better part of those that c(o have all expenses covered (room, board, books, tuition and fees). Others receive partial grants. It should be noted that not all of these grants are athletically oriented. For instance, forward Jeff Baker is a veteran and receives money from the GI Bill. At least one basketball player is on EOF. The athletic scholarship money comes from the alumni association. Hockey: A total of 15 hockey players receive funds raised at a benefit game the Sabres played for the University last fall. Several of the Canadian players still receive foreign student waivers because they were already enrolled when the program was dropped. Baseball, Wrestling, Soccer and Track: Athletes on these teams often receive small amounts of aid from a wide variety of sources. Some baseball players are on the hockey team and get money there. Others have jobs in the recreation department or ihe athletic equipment room. There are a handful of wrestlers, hockey players and soccer players who also have these jobs. At least one track man is on EOF. As far as we know there are no other forms of athletic aid from the department or the University. Of course some athletes are regents scholarship winners and some have grants from other sources. Athletes-doing what they can Editor’s note: This piece is written as a reaction to Rich Baumgarten’s article calling for more athletic scholarships. Together we hope they present a forum on this controversial subject. The Spectrum encourages you to let us know how you feel about athletic scholarships after reading these two views of the situation. by Bruce Engel Sports Editor When great people die, some part of them lives on. Something that they did remains after their death and serves to extend the spirit of their life and work. Vince Lombardi was a great man. Why must that horrendous saying of his live on in his memory? “Winning isn’t everything; it’s the only thing.” The saying might have had relevance for Lombardi. He was the coach of a professional team. It has no relevance in Clark Hall. Winning is not the jonly thing. It’s not even everything. It’s not even the most important thing. This is a university. The really important thing is education The athletes that represent this University are students. If their education isn’t the most important thing to them, then frankly they shouldn’t be here. Hopefully, athletics can be part of their education, and a vital part. The real values of athletics are intrinsic and can’t be reflected in a win and lose record. It’s the experience of the athlete that is important. Merely to compete is far more important than winning and losing. ( It’s not whether There’s another thing (there may be quite a few more) that is more important than winning or losing namely, the athletes’ health and safety. - Mr. Baumgarten was very pleased the six endangered sports were saved. But he doesn’t Racers — when he talks about winning and they get scholarship assistance. Obviously, he shares the view of those who would have abolished these sports that they simply aren’t very important. For those of you that might not know, the golf team had a super year, and swimming and cross country were surprisingly strong. The tennis team had a winning record too. Getting back to the “big five,” wrestling and soccer were outstanding, basketball and baseball are rebuilding. The only real disappointment is hockey. Yes Rich, it was a very mention them losing and doesn’t propose that V —Center Buffalo centerfielder Rick Wolstenholme has won The Spectrum's Athlete of the Week award for his great play on the team's annual southern tour. The Bulls' pitching was disappointing in Florida, but Wolstenholme showed that if they (pitchers) come around, he can do most of the rest. He hit .513 with a triple and a home run, stole a few bases, made two fantastic catches and generally did everything well. good year. Real students If the coaching staff is unhappy because they don’t have scholarship athletes, they don’t have superteams and they can’t play the best competition all the time, then 1 suggest they look at their programs again. What they do have is a program that not mercenary real students are participating in - athletes. The athletic scholarship, in and of itself, is not an evil thing. Unfortunately, what it can lead to is less than desirable. It may lead to the expectation that your athletes will perform like robots and win all the time. It may lead to a fierce desire to win at nearly any price. It may even lead to the recruitment of profoundly unqualified students who just happen to be great athletes. The Department cannot on the one hand justify athletics for intrinsic reasons and then try to bring in more scholarship athletes so that more of the teams win more often. Everybody wants to win. But this isn’t an athletic factory like Ohio State. The best Buffalo can do is to try to win with what it has. The Bulls should play on a level where they are competent. And if they lose, then they lose.

The comments were made on a CBS news special, “Haldeman: The Nixon Years.” The interview covered old ground, with Mr. Haldeman his adding personal own observations and characterizations rather than any new information. Several times he expressed his failure to understand what had gone wrong with the Nixon Administration. He spoke not of criminal transgressions but of “mistakes.” The man who once said, “Every president needs an S.O.B. and I’m Nixon’s,” discussed the of the Nixon politics administration, the character of the former president, the tapes, the plumbers and the effort to “contain” the Watergate affair in an edited interview with correspondent Mike Wallace. Separate context The Watergate affair has become synonymous with the last of the Nixon lwo years administration and many critics have grouped all events of that period together into one large scandal. Mr. Haldeman was extremely careful to isolate the break-in and subsequent coverqp from other attempts endeavors, administration however Mr. Wallace asked, “Why the plumbers?,” in a voice that betrayed disbelief that anyone delegated so much authority and sworn to uphold the constitution, could have hired a gang of thugs to do their dirty work. They were working for the Committee to Re-elect the President (CREEP), responded Haldeman, Mr. carefully dissassociating the Nixon White House from the Nixon campaign machine. But Mr. Wallace, one of the most thorough journalists on television, pressed the issue. “CREEP, that was the organization of John Mitchell, a former Attorney General, and Maurice Stans, a former Secretary of Commerce, who were at times answerable to the directly President,” Mr. Wallace said. Mr. Haldeman was visibly uncomfortable with the question, and although he reiterated his claim that the plumbers were not working for the Nixon White House, his reply seemed so evasive that it cast suspicion on his ability to relate what had transpired behind the closed doors of the oval office. Background Mr. Haldeman received in excess of $25,000 for the taped interview called a “memoir” by CBS executives. Labelled “check book journalism,” by its critics, this form of soliciting information from newsmakers has come under attack from those who believe it could lead to monopolization of news features by those with the bankroll. The other largest networks, ABC and NBC, were hesitant to criticize, but conceded that the CBS “memoir” classification raised certain questions. Their silence may have been prompted by past performance. Both had paid for interviews in the past, NBC for a 1969 session with Robert Kennedy’s assassin, Sirhan Sirhan, and ABC for a talk with Lt.

It that the committee conduct a would also require the new survey no later than the third Student Senate, of if the Senate week of each semester “to cannot meet, the Executive determine student preference of Committee, to approve speakers future speakers,” and that the results must be immediately costing over $2000.

Mr. Lalonde explained that the $2000 figure was picked by the Restructuring Committee because the cost of most “big time” speakers is usually over that amount, while less expensive speakers seem to cost much less than $2000. “The $2000 was not arbitrary,” he said. The Restructuring Committee recommended that the Student Senate approve speakers over $2000 because the Senate “is the most representative student body on campus,” Mr. Lalond emphasized. Many decisions Current Speakers Bureau Chairman Stan Morrow, who was also a member of the Restructuring Committee, intends to oppose the proposal when it is brought to the Assembly next week. Mr. Morrow feels that if the recommendations are implemented, they will hinder the operation of the Bureau. “How do you run a program when you have to wait three weeks for a decision?” he said referring to the requirement that speakers costing $2000 and over will consider the issue at a go through both the meeting April 10, so Mr. Morrow committee and the Student will ask the Assembly to delay on the SA Restructuring Senate.

While the jury was sequestered. Supreme Court Justice Gilbert King heard testimony by a psychologist who has done studies on the validity of eyewitness testimony. Despite defense protests, Judge King did not allow psychologist Robert Buckhut (whose studies on eyewitnesses testimony have been published in Scientific American magazine) to testify before the jury. In supporting the prosecution’s contention that Mr. Buckhut’s testimony was irrelevant to the trial, Judge King asked the jury to leave the room while Mr. Buckhut’s testimony was heard and recorded. Mr. Buckhut concluded from numerous studies that eyewitness testimony is the least reliable of all trial evidence. Eyewitnesses make many errors, he said, mainly because of stress and the very short period of time in which they view an event. William Quinn was fatally injured in the first few minutes of the Attica uprising when the prison was in chaos. Additionally, eyewitnesses usually see only a very small part of what takes place, and, after a while, they tend to fill in the gaps to make their stories more credible, according to Mr. Buckhut. The Attica uprising occurred in September 1971. At one point during the testimony, Judge King said to Mr. Buckhut, “1 don’t want to hear about your experiments,” according to Bruce Soloway, media coordinator of the Attica Trial News Service. A former Attica prison guard testified earlier in the week that he had given false testimony concerning the death of guard William Quinn to state investigators. Over protests from the prosecution, Alton Tolbert testified that for two years he had falsely accused an inmate of striking William Quinn. He said he had done this for his own personal gain. “In my own mind I thought I could further myself and possibly get transferred to a prison nearer my home,” he explained. State prosecutor Louis A’dala had argued that Mr. Tolbert was not a proper witness since the prosecution had already had Mr. Tolbert sign a document recanting his story in June 1972. However, the prosecution had not given this document to Correction Department officials in Albany, who said they were “shocked” by last week’s testimony. The State Correctional Service is considering disciplinary action against Mr. Tolbert, who is still a prison guard. Defense attorneys William Kunstler and Ramsey Clark appealed for the dismissal of charges against their clinets last week. Judge King said he would consider reducing the charges against Mr. Pemasaclice. Mr. Clark, attorney for Mr. Pemasaclice, discussed the fact that only two of the state’s eighteen witnesses had even mentioned his client. While doctors’ reports stated that Mr. Quinn had died from head injuries, only one witness testified that he saw Mr. Pernasalice strike Mr. Quinn on the back. Mr. Quinn had no injuries on his back. The other witness testified that Mr. Pernasalice had told him “he had made sure a guard was dead,” but he said he had not taken Mr. Pernasalice’s remark seriously, “I must say that never in 24 years before the bar have I seen any office of prosecution submit in a case of murder such inconsequential, unsubstantial and unsupportable evidence, and I urge you to end the anxiety now and dismiss the charges against Mr. Pernasalice,” Mr. Clark asserted. In a more impassioned speech, Mr. Kunstler outlined the political content of the trial. “For one blinding moment hundreds of men were released. It was a paralyzing moment in history when a man was run down by forces that were suddenly unleashed. It happened without anyone’s control. It was a cry against an inhumane —continued on page 12— �Priority parking set for carpools Space will be made available for priority parking to carpools in Michael lot, the Student Association (SA) announced Wednesday.

Approximately 30 spaces are set aside for the beginning of the program. “The cooperation that we have received from Campus Security and from Environmental Health and Safety has been fantastic,” said Arthur Lalonde, SA Executive Vice-President. “We have the people needed to man the area and have the necessary materials all collected,” added Steven Schwartz, the the - Director of Student Affairs. “The only thing left to do is to get people registered so that we have a base figure to work with,” Mr. Lalonde continued. Students may sign up for carpools in the SA Office, Room 205 Norton Hall. The Ride Board adjacent to the Fillmore Room in Norton Hall, is also available for people interested in forming carpools. “We feel that we have put together a set-up that speaks to the needs of the commuter student while encouraging energy conservation,” said Mr. Schwartz. “And we believe this is the first such program in the Western New York area,” « Monday, March 24, 1975 1 p.m. Room 231 Norton Hall Rev.

Action’ GSA selects new officers The Reservations can still be made sponsored by Joseph P. Esposito five new Graduate Student Association (GSA) officers, elected by the GSA Senate Monday, hope to work on a variety of issues by looking at graduate education as a whole, according to President Terry DiFilippo. Mr. DiFilippo, was voted into office along with three other members of the George Boger, Administrative Vice “Action” slate - President; Leza Mesiah, External Affairs Vice President; and Bert Herbert, Treasurer. Warren Breisblatt, who ran independently for Student Affairs Vice President, was also elected. The new officers plan to strongly support the Graduate Students Employees Union’s (GSEU) stance in the current controversy over the new University guidelines for Graduate Assistants. The GSEU is trying to unionize nearly 1200 graduate students, with the active support of the New York State United Teachers Union. Critics have charged that the new guidelines are an attempt by the administration to head off such unionization. Mr. DiFilippo expressed that he was concerned about the increase in financial cutbacks for public higher education. The “Action” slate was formed in response to “state and national policies discriminating against public education in favor of private education,” he said. second-year graduate student in the Department of Philosophy. He will be in charge of the disbursement of student activities fees, and presenting the GSA Senate with a monthly income statement and balance sheet.

Dartmouth Grad Mr. DiFilippo graduated from Dartmouth College in 1968, receiving a BA degree with distinction in philosophy. Since then, he has pursued a joint degree in law and philosophy at the State University at Buffalo. In 1973, he served as GSA Vice President for External Affairs, and has held numerous other posts in student government. As Chief Executive of the GSA, Mr. DiFilippo will chair Senate meetings and appoint all chairmen and members to the various GSA Committees. He is the primary GSA delegate to all outside activities and will appoint additional delegates where needed. Additionally, the President serves as an ex-officio member of all committees.

Additionally, the new officers hope- to maintain state allocations for Teaching Assistants, Resident Advisors and Graduate Assistants. Reversing proposed cuts of library acquisitions and funding for SUNY in general are also of vital concern, Mr. DiFilippo said. Official duties As the new Administrative Vice President, Mr. Roger will assist the President in his executive and administrative duties. He will supervise the annual election of the GSA Senate and coordinate all GSA committees.

Its own record administration’s term. Under the - gun, the administration put together a position paper against plus-minus grading. No one knows what effect it had on President Robert Ketter, although people involved in drafting the paper say it was very well done. In any event, Dr. Ketter vetoed the grading plan. The Jackalone administration also consistently opposed any change from the four-course load system. For about two years, the four-course load has come under fire from various faculty and administration spokesmen and from Albany. It is impossible to tell what effect the Jackalone administration has had since, given the speed at which academic bureaucracies operate, nothing was likely to have come of this it has come to be regarded as generally stable. ATE on thin ice But the most important area of policy academic under the Jackalone administration was the Student Course and Teacher Evaluation (SCATE). The SCATE, designed to let students know which courses and teachers other students consider good or bad, was to be the fundamental academic reform of the Jackalone administration. The result- was a pilot survey (some of the results of which an in appear advertisement in this issue) and an unpublished SCATE, unpublished because the University administration did not fund publication and no funds for publication were allocated in the SA budget. Sources involved in the SCATE project say it started almost from scratch and that the efforts by former Academic Affairs Coordinator Bob Kole were not very helpful in developing a revised, convenient course and teacher evaluation. “It’s come a long way,” one person close to SC ATE’s development said. Money matters students opposed it. Still, some say the Jackalone administration put unusual effort into its opposition. The Colleges Chartering chaired by Pamela Benson, was the main device through which the Jackalone administration fought for what one source described as an “orderly retreat” on the issues of educational innovation that the Colleges precipitated. While the final settlement was sometimes considered less than satisfactory. Committee, The Jackalone administration’s financial administration has been called a success by many different observers. One of the few political breaks it had in the rough early going was the establishment of a good working relationship with Treasurer Sal Napoli, a member of the Burrick ticket. Deficit spending came to an end the Jackalone in administration, and the long-standing budget deficit first attacked by former Treasurer Ken linker at the cost of most of SA’s reserve fund, was eliminated. “Overbudgeting,” the practice of above budgeting expenses the revenue on anticipated —continued on oage 10— Negotiations to secure academic hospital space Negotiations to secure the use of academic hospital space for health science students, which are currently underway between the School of Medicine at this University and Buffalo area hospitals, have attracted the attention of Erie County legislators. At a meeting of county and state lawmakers. Assemblyman William Hoyt (D., Erie) said that of the four health science schools in the State University of New York (SUNY) system, only Buffalo relies exclusively on affiliated hospitals to provide clinical programs. He added that “University hospitals in Syracuse, Stony Brook and Brooklyn enjoy huge state subsidies each year, while the only state assistance this University receives is in the form of a number of physician salaries, and dentists receiving joint county-state salaries.” The Health Sciences Center at this University has for years conducted their student clinical programs at local hospitals that have completely donated the use of their facilities. The University has had such affiliations with the Veteran’s Administration Hospital, Meyer Memorial, Buffalo General and Buffalo Children’s Hospitals, with limited programs at Deaconess and South Buffalo Mercy Hospitals. Financial obligation If the Medical School is to maintain its accreditation, which will be reviewed in the fall of 1975, the official hospital affiliation plans should be in effect by then, according to F. Carter Pannill, Vice President for Health Sciences. The last review by the Middle States Accreditation Association William Hoyt was three years ago, at which time the University was advised to to take action to secure state assistance, he said. At that time Food surveys available Copies of this month’s Mini-Market Survey are now available in the NYPIRG office, Room 311 Norton Hall. Compiled by Craig Colton and Stephanie Lindner, the survey is an update of the food price survey that appeared in The Spectrum last November. The Acme and Twin Fair supermarkets in the Boulevard Mall have been included for the benefit of students living on the Amherst Campus. No significant price increases were reported in those markets previously surveyed with the exception of Wonder Bread, which rose $. 13 in the last six months. Sugar, which peaked at close to $3.00 per five-pound bag, is now selling for as low as $2.39. Iceberg lettuce may also prove a good buy; it dropped $.25 at one store surveyed. A follow-up scheduled for next month will be expanded to include prices at the North Buffalo Food Co-op. NYPIRG will also be releasing a Banking and Loan and a Drug Price survey in the near future. Further information is available from Craig Colton at 831-2715. President Ketter proposed plans for state support of the health science programs at this University. He has since assigned the task of trying to alleviate the problem to Dr. Pannill. “The most important point in this issue is for the state to recognize this unique situation [in Buffalo) and now meet its financial obligation” to support the Health Science programs. Dr. Pannill asserted. The Medical School has presented detailed plans for the use of academic hospital space. The area hospitals are now studying the proposals and a response is expected soon. When an affiliation agreement is reached, the plans go to Albany for revision by the Governor’s office. Governor Hugh Carey has “admitted” to the state’s obligation to carry its share of the burden but indicated that no state r | monies would be appropriated until the affiliation agreements were settled. In the Governor’s proposed SUNY budget, however, the four health science centers received the largest increases in funding. If the affiliation plans are approved by the Governor, they go to the state legislature for final passage. Dr. Pannill expects a final decision by May. Assemblyman Hoyt pointed out that “significant costs are being paid by Erie County taxpayers in supporting the other university hospitals in the state,” and “we are not receiving an equivalent investment of our tax dollars on a local basis.” Passport/Application Photos UNIVERSITY PHOTO 355 Norton Hall Tues., 3 photos for $3 ($.50 per additional, KEN LOUNGE 1037 Kensington Ave. at Bailey MONDAY NITE 8 pm - 1 am - 4 Bud or Schmidts splits $1.00 ■ TUESDAY NITE I I Wed., Thurs.: lOa.m —5 p.m - 8 pm - 3 shot schnapps $1.00 1 am Rhine win* 40c Screwdrivers 50c Schnapps 40c Anisette (white) 40c I I PITCHER OF BEER $1.50 Fish Fry Fridays - 836-9230 Monday, 24 March 1975 .

Page three �HEW report shows decline in Right to drink is still controversial reading scores but better skills Although 18-year olds have been considered adults in most legal matters since the passage of the 26th Amendment, one of these adult rights the right to and consume buy liquor remains controversial. Across the country, student efforts to obtain alcohol on campus have met with mixed results. Some students still are not permitted to possess alcohol anywhere, while others can have liquor in their dorm rooms and lounges. On the dry end of the scale are states like Pennsylvania, where eighteen year olds are not allowed to possess or consume alcohol. But they are allowed to own bars or work at bartenders. Other states, even if they have lowered the drinking age to 18 or 19, do not permit liquor to be sold on “school property,” and universities are usually classified as such by the courts. - — In Minnesota, a bill that would have exempted the state university from this classification was narrowly defeated amid fears that grant and student loan monies would be spent on liquor. In Austin, the University of Texas was more successful, and is now allowed to serve beer and wine in its student union. It is still attempting to obtain a mixed drinks license, however. Finally, in Nebraska, fears that the 19-year old drinking age could not be enforced on campuses with a large population of 17 and 18-year olds have prevented liquor from being allowed on campuses there. • These isolated cases, however, are rapidly becoming the exception rather than the rule. According to a 1973 survey of 429 U.S. colleges by the University of Rhode Island, one-fourth of those surveyed served alcohol on campus, and another fourth revealed that they were considering it. One of the most liberal states in this area is New York, where alcohol is permitted to be sold and kept in dorm rooms. The problems reported here, and in other liberal states, have not been senous. Legal action At one school, the local bartenders’ association is threatening legal action because “business has been suffering” since the sale of liquor began on the campus. Other difficulties have been the usual “noisy party” problems protecting the rights of those who drink, and those who don’t, and in some cases slight property damages. - According to statistics, the recent rise in alcohol abuse by college-age students is not tracable to the increases in availability. The rate is rising even on campuses where alcohol is not permitted. Although most students seem to be taking the new freedom in stride, using it in a mature manner, the new laws have done little but sanction practices which have already been going on for some time. But one administrator said that a very positive thing has come of the new liberality with more college students liquor with drinking problems have been able to obtain counseling on their campuses, which they could not before. — A soon to be released report, compiled by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW), has found a noticeable decline in the reading ability of American school children since the middle of the last decade. Despite these findings, children today have better skills than their contemporaries of the 1950’s and earlier periods. coming This HEW sponsored research project amid a national debate on scholastic achievement will be instrumental in determining whether students are learning as well today as they have in the past. The 164-page document States that American education seems to be “improving,” and that anyone who says that he knows that literacy is decreasing is a vefy unsure person.” During the past ten years, however, there has been “a slight negative trend” in reading achievement, the report stated, although researchers have labeled these findings “extremely tentative.” Since 1965, there has also been “a temporary dip in a trend that is upward overall,” according to Roger Farr, the Indiana University reading authority who headed the HEW project. Dr. Farr and his associates compiled the report using data from other research findings, publishers’ records on changes in test norms, readability levels of children’s books, military inductees’ examination results, census reports and scores in citywide and statewide testing programs. — - Results decline Some critics point to the decline in high school Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) results as evidence that schools are emphasizing the basics less but the report maintains that overall reading scores have generally risen despite factors that might reduce them. Because less children are dropping out of school, the test group at each age is younger and includes the performance of “slow” children who ordinarily would have been exempt from the normal testing. Some observers blame the decline in reading ability on the poor test performance of urban children, but these scores are offset by higher test results in suburban schools, the report claimed. This trend was exactly the opposite in the days when middle-class families lived primarily in the cities and lower income families resided in rural areas. “The poor readers are just in different places now,” Dr. Farr stated.” “Poor readers read better than poor readers used to and today’s good readers 2 DAYS ONLY This Wed. and Thurs. W.N.Y. Premier - read better than good readers used to. The average has gone up.” As proof of this, the report said so many students were scoring above average that the manufacturers had to re-norm the reading tests. This itself has contributed to an increase in reading averages. In a number of instances, the questions on the tests are now more difficult than ever before. “For example, the skills being asked of five-year-olds on the Metropolitan Readiness Test are much more sophisticated today,” Dr. Farr maintained. Although reading averages have improved, the report offers no explanation for this upward trend. Dr. Farr attempted to give several reasons, which include children remaining in shcool longer than ever before, better and a wider variety of reading materials, improved teaching techniques and childrne bringing wider experiences to their reading. Unlike those teachers and parents who feel that children read less because of constant television viewing, Dr. Farr maintains that T.V. has “expanded the environment” of youngsters, giving them more information to bring to a reading situation. More exposure “It is hard to read a story about a farm if you’ve never seen one and don’t know what a farm is,” he said, “but television has exposed childrne to more things. There are some bad aspects to television, though, such as detracting from entertainment reading.” Some weaknesses in the report stem from a scarcity of the score data covering long periods for individual school systems. Seventeen of the 27 largest schools in the country returned the questionnaires and a mere seven of these responded to requests for summary data. About 70 smaller school districts made this data available. “It is clear that despite a multimillion-dollarper year business, there are surprisingly few longitudinal and easily accessible records on the performance of childrne,” the report states. “Though one can easily find cabinets full of test scores in virtually every school system in the country, these sources generally turn out to contain little information relevant to the issue of the longitudinal monitoring of performance. The absence of substantial data tracing and comparing student performance over periods of time has also apparently upset educational researchers. 3 SHOWS!!!

The tickets had previously been exempt from the sales tax because of the rental tax the theater owners had to pay to the film-producer-distributors. The new sales tax was proposed to help meet some outstanding state debts in the current budget. These include extensions on unemployment benefits and continuation of social service and education programs. State Assemblymen and Senators who oppose the tax have been asked to devise alternative plans for meeting the budget. Kallye Latimer, aid to Governor Hugh Carey, said various state agencies are also studying new areas that might be taxed. Republican support Thus far, Republicans have viewed the movie tax unfavorably, while Democrats have not yet made a commitment in their correspondence with the New York State Motion Picture Theater Tax Committee (NYSMPTTC), a lobbying group of motion picture theater owners and employees. By contacting student groups and senior citizens, they hope to get them to write their state legislators and circulate petitions. They believe the bill can be defeated at the state level but fear the city may levy a tax regardless of what Albany does. The state and several cities now impose a sales tax on film rentals. The state tax is four percent. In New York City, it is four percent, and in Buffalo, three percent. The only state If the sales tax proposal is ratified, New York will become the only state with the double tax. the NYSMPTTC is afraid this will lead to a decline in motion picture attendance. This predicted decline in movie attendance may lead to Jhe closing of motion picture theaters and further unemployment. Additionally, many fear the closing of motion picture theaters will depress the surrounding area, reducing business at shopping centers, restaurants, gas stations and small shops. Movie theaters are faced with higher costs for fuel, salaries, maintenance and real estate taxes. Although 1974 was a successful year for the motion picture industry as a whole, the profits have gone to producers and distributors like Paramount, Warner Brothers and Universal. Equal rights by Andrew Sacks Staff Writer Spectrum A College B instructor withdrew charges of criminal trespassing against a former student of his at pre-trial hearings in Clarence Center courthouse Wednesday night. The instructor, Jonathan Ketchum, had sworn out a warrant last December for the arrest of Mark Dratell, a tenant of Ketchum’s, at Oakstone Farm last summer for second degree criminal trespassing. The alleged trespass occurred after Mr. Dratell entered Oakstone Farm on the evening of December 15, accompanied by Richard Jove, another student then living at the farm. According to Mr. Ketchum, the two threatened and harassed him over payment of back rent. Mr. Drattel claimed that the two discussed the financial situation until Mr. Ketchum lost his temper, asked him to leave and threatened to call the sheriff if he didn’t. At that point, Mr. Drattel went into an adjoining apartment and had dinner with the tenants there. He was arrested on the trespassing charge February 6. Unusual charge Mr. Drattel’s attorney William Reich said “It would be extremely difficult to sustain an allegation of criminal trespassing” since his client had been accompanied by a legal occupant of the premise. Because the alleged harassment was only a single occurrence, District Attorney Manny Wirtsman concurred Mr. Ketchum would be hard pressed to show any “malicious intent” in Mr. Drattel’s actions. Finally, both Mr. Reich and Mr. Wirtsman noted that the delay in pressing charges had weakened Mr. Ketchura’s case, suggesting, as Mr. Reich put it, that he “was trying to use the courts as a protective agency rather than an institution for deciding right and wrong.” After conferring with the district attorney ThQrsday, Mr. Ketchum withdrew the charges. He explained that the DA. advised him of the “problems of separating civil and criminal charges.” Simple deduction The rent in question was for the summer of 1974, when Mr. Drattel lived at Oakstone Farm and took a course in philosophy there with Mr, Ketchum. Both men agreed that Mr. Drattel owes $164 rent, but the latter charged that his instructor Female worker gets same pay as male (CPS) Should a female social worker who performs essentially the same tasks as male clinical psycholigists be paid the same rate? Jane Thompson, a social worker, thought so two years ago when she filed a sex discrimination complaint against her employer, Rhode Island’s Brown University. In an unanimous decision announced late in February, the Rhode Island Commission for Human Rights agreed with Ms. Thompson, ruling that the nature of work performed and not the educational qualifications of the workers was the determining factor in salary scales. The Commission recommended that all state funds to Brown, totalling more than $700,000 a year, be withheld until the University raises Thompson’s current salary and awards compensation for unequal back pay. - A rose by “Thompson should be paid for what she does,” the Commission said. “Simply giving her a different title when she does the same work does not warrant different pay.” The Commission found that Brown relied on “assumed differences in training” between Thompson and the male psychologists based on educational degree backgrounds. “We find all of these people well trained and while differently skilled, all similarly skilled and all similarly useful to the University,” the Commission said. Despite the Commission’s definitive ruling, the final outcome of the matter is uncertain. Unless the governor chooses to act upon them, the Commission’s recommendation to withhold state funds remains merely a recommendation. Ms. Thompson’s options are to wait for the governor to act, refile her complaint under a new law giving the Human Rights Commission additional enforcement power, or file a civil suit in federal court. —Lester Mark Dratell had violated a verbal agreement that would have enabled him to save $100 summer session tuition by registering for the summer course the next fall. Mr. Drattel argues that since Mr. Ketchum cost him $100 by violating the agreement, the rent he owes should be only $64. Mr. Ketchum acknowledged that he has made similar deals with other students, emphasizing they are not, to his knowledge, illegal or contrary to University policy.

I wish to comment upon a letter from two Plainview residents which appeared in your issue of March 3. Those two complain tan ts, who thought the mention of their hometown in your fine cartoon “Superrunt’’ wa's slanderous, are fellow editors of mine here at SUNY Stony Brook. In THIS newspaper office we are continually barraged with information on the social, political and cultural significance of Plainview. While 1 have never been to the damn place, I’m certain its a dive. But all seriousness aside, I am certain that Mssrs. Budiansky and Alzamora did fine justice to this community boasting ten expressway exits and a McDonald’s stand. 1 am sure that Plainview is full of the sort of people they describe in No. 55, “Student Discovers JAP.” As for Salant and Saks, they are obviously too thin-skinned about their hometown. 1 myself am from Brooklyn, which is home to Coney Island, the Ex Lax Factory, and four of New York’s five Mafia families. If someone insults my hometown, 1 don’t write a nasty letter. I blow their fucking head off! In any case, “Superrunt” is one of the finest college cartoons I’ve read, and The Spectrum in general ranks far above most college papers. Keep it up and keep quacking. Jayson "Quack” Wechter Columnist and former Feature!Arts Director Stony Brpok Statesman Incorrect spelling To the Editor. I find it very distrubing that your staff does not take the time to proofread and make corrections concerning peoples’ names printed in The Spectrum. Within the past two months my name has been spelled incorrectly five out of six times. Granted it might be difficult for some individuals to pronounce but this does not give you the right to mutilate its proper spelling! It’s only a common courtesy to make sure a person’s name is written correctly if you decide to put it in print. A few simple checks can end your little name guessing game. I am bringing this to your attention not only for my satisfaction, but I feel I am not the only victim of your staffs ineptness. In the future I hope your staff, as well as yourself, will be more courteous and respectful to every individual, especially those whose names have ethnic backgrounds. - Cindy Palczynski A member of your staff was made aware of P.S. the misspelling the first time the mistake was made. It appeared correctly in the one issue following, but was again destroyed in following issues.

Within the next eighteen months Captain Kirk and Spock will once again be having their atoms scattered in and around the many “M” class planets in our universe. For within this time. Star Trek will with many reappear as a full-screen motion picture of the original cast once more battling the Romulins and Klingons. And if the movie is a success (meaning if it makes money for Paramount Studios) there is a good chance that the series will return to the blob tube and with it a chance for all of us to turn dreams — into reality, if only just for 60 minutes a week. For the many disbelieving Star Trek fans who my information have heard rumors like this before - comes from Gene Roddenberry, executive producer and writer of the series.

I have one question that I sincerely hope Mr. Boyar will undertake to answer. Exactly what, Mr. Boyar, did you mean when you wrote, “She should seem like someone from Panic Theater, she does seem like someone from Panic Theater, and coincidentally, she has played in Panic Theater ?" Mr. Boyar, I, and I’m sure all of Panic Theater, eagerly await your response. Scott M. Feigelstein President, Panic Theater GSEU corrections To the Editor: Two errors appeared in the March 21 issue of The Spectrum dealing with budget cutbacks and the faculty, non-teaching professional and graduate assistant unions’ response. Although the cutbacks are already heavy, not all departments have yet laid off all their summer graduate staff. In addition, the already proposed job losses for next year (50-150) apply to all jobs in this University and not just those of faculty and graduate assistants. Clerical, service and maintenance jobs are on the line as well. As The Spectrum articles of Friday made clear, thf University administration has not and are now forbidden to adequately respond to the present budget cutbacks and even more serious possible ones. Our strength is in the unity of our unions and student associations. GSEU Steering Committee �Assembly remarks distorted To the Editor, Levinson’s proposal. The intent of my remarks was to quell the laughter and circus-like atmosphere which the Assembly put forth in response to Mr. Levinson’s proposal. I thought then, as 1 do now, that the Student Assembly should not viciously mock the sincere proposal of a fellow student. Mr. Colucci’s quote of me implies that I was endorsing Mr. Levinson’s proposal. I was not endorsing it. I was merely urging the Assembly to be fair enough to consider it, rather than laughing at it and its sponsor. Thus, my related remarks were distorted. — In his article on the last SA meeting, Clem Colucci’s four word quote of my remarks distorted the major point of my comments to the Assembly. I did not endorse Michael Levinson’s proposal by saying that his idea “was not so crazy.” What I said at that meeting was that Mr. Levinson’s proposal was no more outrageous than many bills enacted by the Assembly. As an example I cited the Assembly’s allocaiton of $500 for one student to participate in a judo tournament. Additionally, I prefaced my remarks to the Assembly by expressing .my doubts about Mr. Robert Cohen Guest Opinion by H.R. Wolf In a first Guest Opinion (Feb. 21), I outlined a need for “an intellectual and moral identity, an idea for this university.” In a second Guest Opinion (March 5), I argued for a School of Basic Education that would embody “a concept ofgeneral education. ” Neither of these ideas is new: precedents for both can be found in the Hypocritical about sexism To the Editor. to lure us is both “Pretty Waitresses” discriminatory and offensive. Having been in the restaurant business myself for many years, I would think the terms efficiency and politeness much more important and certainly more appropriate for a presumably intelligent, aware University paper. In addition, I was quite amused upon noticing the placement of an article right above this ad concerning the implantation of sex roles/attitudes in — Glaring through your Wednesday March 19th edition of The Spectrum, I was suddenly taken aback by your use of blatant tastelessness and unabashed promotion of sexism. I am referring to the advertisement for “X” restaurant, which stooped pretty low in order to solicit the University community’s business. The ad speaks about its fantastic specials, great atmosphere, etc. And unfortunately excluded the fact that they employ “Pretty Waitresses.” The use of this bait society. It struck me as being both very hypocritical and thoughtless on your part. children of our - Debra Fine Classical and Renaissance worlds and in the history of humane education in our own country. If there is anything novel about either notion, it is a result of our subscribing to “salvation by technology” and the Myth of the Machine for over half a century. I was aware in both articles, as I am now, of the illusory quality of flicking a few humanistic ideas into the pin-ball of the University. Still, I am impelled to round out my educational invention by proposing here a program for the postulated School ofBasic Education. For practical and theoretical reasons, I proposed in the second Guest Opinion a student body of 100, a faculty of 20, and forty-eight credit hours over two years in three areas. These areas would be; Life Science, Justice, and Communication. Life Science: The inherited misdirection and terrors-of applied science and technology in our time (Nazism, Guernica) are all too clear (see Lewis Mumford, “Reflections,” The New Yorker, March 10,1975) as are the threats to the individual, the environment and the bio sphere. If scientific method, history, and procedure can be taught in the context of life-enhancing perspectives and values, we would all benefit; we would all begin to move in a healthier, more ethical space. Justice: Despite its attic appeal, no issue of society or curriculum can be more pressing, enduring, or complex than the theory, history, and facts of justice and injustice of economic, political, religious and racial injustice. No one issue defines more broadly and factually the terms of our future, the clouded terms of a possible future. No one alive today has not lived through, or been touched by, a war between groups alleging injustice; nor can anyone living now imagine a world without war (civil, national, and international) if the large questions of justice and injustice are not raised and faced. Communication: I would prefer not to use a word which has become a code name for the merely technological drift of contemporary theories of language, art, and media. But no other ordinary word in its root meaning so economically encompasses the symbolic modes of animal and human exchange; from spoken and written language to cybernetics; from the ritual dance behavior of bee to Martha Graham; from seeing as a physiological and neural event to judging the films of Chaplin. No other word encompasses so well the basic needs of all organisms (beginning with cells) to express their existence in a social context; and the concomitant need for the community and system to express its structure, values and history to the individual. By analyzing the structure and theory of communication, we will be able to include high and low culture, ancient and modem texts, scientism and aestheticism in our curriculum some of the prevailing dualisms of the present moment. This briefly sketched Basic Education of Life Science, Justice and Communication resembles, of course, the existing divisions of Science and Technology, Social Sciences, and Humanities. The new program imagines however, a way for us to make our way towards survival, stability and understanding. If not a “unitary principle” (see “The Rehabilitation of Natural Philosophy,” The Nation Feb. 22, 1975), this trio of courses establishes a context (a limited, but related, group of intellectual disciplines) supportive of unified blinking; the kind of thinking exemplified by Lewis Mumford, Lewis Thomas, John Rawls, and Gerald Holton. The proposed curriculum for the School of Basic Education is modest in its demands for credits and would not prevent a student from fulfilling the present distribution requirements. A version of the basic program would look like this: — - Right to run To the Editor. Garry Wills’ column about George Wallace’s ability to run for President demands comment. While the article may indded repreesnt the majority opinion with regard to the disabled population, it is nevertheless a prime example of a pervasive prejudice. The tacit assumption that disabled implies helplessness is erroneous. The fact that Roosevelt engaged in a coverup of his physical limitations was not a malevolent limiting of the press, rather, it was a practical repsonse to an unrealistic ideal of a physically strong leader held by the American public. When Mr. Wills states that the impoosibility of such a coverup today precludes Mr. Wallace from holding office, he is implying that the public is unwilling to accept leadership from a wheelchair. Why does Mr. Wills feel that the job is physically impossible for a person in a wheelchair? He states that Roosevelt required special ramps wherever he went. It is sad that “special” ramps are built only for the President; the fact that such essential services are not available to everyone is a blight on our society. Are we to exclude a person from the highest office because of an inability to stand at a podium? Suppose we do accept the argument that a person in a wheelchair should not be allowed to serve as President. Where do we draw line line? Can such a person go as high as Vice President? Should we limit him to the Senate? Maybe we can keep him should we in the state legislature? Better yet declare such a person unable to hold public office at all? Why stop at that? Should a disabled person be allowed to run a corporation? These are all questions that follow if we accept the logic of Mr. Wills argument. We feel it is unfortunate that clearcut political — issues are clouded by such an irrevalent bias. While we do not support Mr. Wallace, we do support his right to run for office in or out of a wheelchair! — Bob Drummer Todd Mendell — First Year Semester One Theory ofLife Process Theory of Justice Communication Theory Semester Two Scientific Method History of Justice Ancient Aesthetics Second Year: Evolution Economics Renaissance Culture Biosphere Religious and racial freedom Linguistics and Media Leftist divisions To the Editor. On March 4, Meir JCahane, reactionary Zionist and leader of the hooligan JDL spoke at U.B. His appearance was met by a picket-line composed of supporters of the Revolutionary Student Brigade (RSB) and the Spartacus Youth League (SYL). The SYL has a long history of opposition to the JDL and the Zionist aggression it defends. We have initiated demonstrations in defense of the Israeli left, against the butcher Moshe Dayan, and in favor of the right of self-determination of the Palestinian nation. However, unlike the RSB, we have consistently pointed out that the Palestinians will never receive their rights from the reactionary Arab sheiks and capitalists. Just as do the Zionists, the Arab regimes seek to expand their own territories at the expense of the Palestinians. Additionally, the SYL recognizes the right to self-determination of the Hebrew-speaking nation. The counterposed rights of these nations can be resolved only through the workers and peasants, both Arab and Hebrew, turning their guns against their own class enemies and through the establishment of a socialist federation of the Near East. No Jew against Arab, but class against class. Unable to stomach the revolutionary Marxist analysis of the SYL, the RSB attempted to exclude us from the picket-line. Chagrined at their failure to keep us out, they resorted to petty harrassment and abject sectarianism. The RSB refused to join the SYL chants of “Red and brown, black and white, workers of the world unite!” and “Smash anti-semitism through socialist revolution!” Their disgusting behavior only once again exposes the crass betrayals of the RSB, and their total inability to even approximate a revolutionary role. Only the Trotskyists of the SYL offer a program that can lead the international - Many details would have to be worked out; how, for instance, these courses could be taught with a proper balance of theory and practice, of general and specific emphasis; how each of the three areas might bear the impress of the others. But these are not formidable problems.

Spartacus Youth League ■. %9^ 5 ' en �Results of the newly-revised Student Course and Teacher Evaluation (SCATE) survey taken last semester have been compiled by the Student Association (SA). Designed to alleviate the problems encountered with the Analysis of Courses and Teaching (ACT) used in the past years, the “pilot survey” was conducted on an experimental basis to determine its quality and effectiveness. “Considering it was only a pilot survey, we arc very satisfied with the results and are prepared to institute SCATE on a permanent basis this semester,” Academic Affairs Coordinator Dave Shapiro said. Although the complete results of the survey will not be published due to its experimental nature, statistics from some of the “key questions” appear below. Pilot survey labelled success; to be used on permanent basis According to SA President Michele Smith and Mr Shapiro, SA is willing to assume the bulk of the expense and work in running SCATE. They insist, however, on the cooperation of the Administration to ensure that the various academic departments participate in the program. “If Dr. Ketter and the Administration are truly concerned with the quality of education at this University, they’ll cooperate,” by Howard Greenblatt Spectrum Staff Writer STUDENT ASSOCIATION’S TEACHING EXCE PAID FOR BY STUDENT ASSOCIATION Student Association instituted a Student Course and Teacher Evaluation questionnaire in the Fall '74 semester. This evaluation was meant to be merely a pilot survey in order to establish a student administrative body familiar with the prqcess of administering the questionnaire; and also to evaluate the questionnaire itself. The following departments participated in Student Association's pilot survey project; Management Occupational Therapy Geology Art History Classics Political Science Medical Technology Mathematics Germanic & Slavic Pharmacy Physics & Astronomy Psychology Spanish Sociology Statistics Biology Faculty of Engineering Chemistry Geography Speech Communication & Applied Sciences . Black Studies, Economics, French and Management also participated but due to this being the first student administered evaluation, we felt these departments were not adequately represented in the final survey. Student Association is appreciative of those faculty members that are concerned about their teaching effectiveness and choose to participate with the student evaluations. Student Association also feels that teaching excellence should be recognized. Therefore, Student Association is publishing what it considers the highest rated course(s) and instructor(s) in each department. - - It must be noted that the following are the results of a statistical analysis of four (4) subjective questions and that these questions provide no absolute answers. It must also be noted that the student evaluation process is not an absolute measure of true teaching effectiveness. Rules for evaluation: All courses with less than ten (10) responses were not used. In some instances, an instructor, or instructors, were sufficiently impressive in teaching large classes (50+) that S.A. recognized teaching excellence in a large class. The questions used were No.'s 35, 37, 38, 39 of the S.C.A.T.E. questionnaire; with No.'s 37 and 38 weighing most heavily.

Particularly troublesome to Ms. Smith and Mr. Shapiro is a clause in Dr. Ketter’s proposal which states that “upon review, [SCATE] results would be made available to departments and to the SA for their publication should they wish.” The words “upon review” and “should they wish” seem to imply that.if for any reason the various departments or Administration find the results troublesome, they would have the authority not to publish them, Ms. Smith explained. Ms. Smith and Mr. Shapiro will respond to Dr. Ketter’s proposals in the near future, and they are confident that these “touchy areas” can be worked out. President Ketter was unavailable for comment, but Executive Vice President Albert Somit indicated that the issue was not yet resolved. “To the extent that you want the Past history The University’s commitment to teacher evaluation was endangered last year when the existing ACT survey was criticized by both the Faculty Senate and the Administration. When a revised ACT plan was subsequently proposed, Dr. Ketter announced that the University would not be able to provide the necessary funding, and recommended that the evaluation process be undertaken on an individual departmental basis. Attempting to produce “an effective, unified and accurate evaluation of course and teacher quality,” Mr. Humm and SCATE coordinator Karen Cunningham formulated the pilot survey. A committee made up of students, faculty and administration has been established to review the feedback and improve the survey for use in future years. ...

Mr. Brueggen is largely credited for the immense interest in the recorder today. Along with fifty recordings of his own, he has researched, edited, published and even commissioned works for the instrument. The program includes works by van Eyck, Hotteterre, Rameau, Peter Philips and J.S. Bach. Tickets for the concert, which will take place in the Mary Seaton Room, Kleinhans Music Hall, are available at the Norton Hall box office. Remaining tickets will be available at Kleinhans an hourbefore the show. Mr. Brueggen will also be offering a lecture on “Baroque Performance Practice” tomorrow at 2 p.m., in the Baird Recital Hall, free of charge. - Officers de-powered Suit filed to protect parolees made them victims of harassment, invasion of privacy, physical threats and pressure to submit to the property, residences, papers unreasonable, unwarranted and and personal effects of people on destructive searches of their homes, property and person. parole as well as their families. filed Unannounced early morning in The class action was the New York raids by parole officers with Federal Court by Civil Liberties Union’s new loaded revolvers making threats of and parole project on Sentencing and Parole. imprisonment It is the first case in a series that revocation are common practice, will attempt to establish for the the complaint states.

ACTION IINE Have a problem? Need help? Do you find it impossible to untangle the University bureaucracy? In cooperation with the Office of Student Affairs and Services, The Spectrum sponsors Action Line, a weekly reader service column. Through Action Line, individual students can gel answers to puzzling questions, find out where and why University decisions are made, and get action when change is needed. Just dial 831-5000 for individual attention. The Office of Student Affairs and Services will investigate all questions and complaints, and will answer them individually. The the individual originating the inquiry is kept confidential under all circumstances. Q: What are GRE fee waivers and where can one find them? A: GRE refers to the Graduate Record Examination, a test (or series of tests) which is required by almost all schools for entrance into graduate school. The test or tests are administered by ETS, Educational Testing Service, at various locations around the United States, including SUNYAB. Applications for the GRE are available at the Testing Center on the third floor of Harriman Library. There is a fee required for the tests offered under this program and this fee can be waived under certain circumstances. For a GRE fee waiver you must got to the Financial Aids Office on the third floor of Tower Hall. The criteria for receiving the fee waiver are; (1) that you have a financial aids application already on file with the Financial Aids Office; (2) that you be already receiving financial aid from the University; and (3) that the expected parental contribution to your educational expenses be zero (in other words, that you be in the lower income brackets). For more information and fee waiver forms, see Mr. Clarence Connors at the Financial Aid Office. Q: If one desires to leave his body, after death, to the University, whom does one contact? A: The Anatomy Department in the School of Medicine is the place to contact for this. The number to call is 831-2912. If you also want to donate your eyes for comeal transplants, call the Buffalo Eye Comeal Service (2250 Main Street) at 835-8725. Q: Are there any special grants from which a student may receive an emergency loan? A: The only thing that did exist on the University campus was the Capen Loan Fund and that dried up a few years ago because of a lack of repayment of loans. Since then, there has been no emergency loan fun4 on the campus. Some efforts have been made in the past two years to resurrect the Loan Fund, but alf of them have proved unsuccessful. Q: What are the qualifications for Phi Beta Kappa and how do you apply for it? A: There is a local chapter (Omicron Chapter) of Phi Beta Kappa on campus. Students may present their own credentials to the chapter for consideration. There are only two times when this may be done: (1) at the end of the fifth semester (80-96 letter grade hours completed) with an overall CPA of 3.60 or better; and (2) at the end of the seventh semester (112 letter grade hours or better) with an overall GPA of 3.40 or better. Grades of “S” are ignored. You should note that election to Phi Beta Kappa is limited to students who are undergraduates majoring in the traditional liberal arts area. Students from Engineering, Nursing, Pharmacy, Education, Social Welfare and the like should not apply. These areas have their own honorary societies. If you feel that you qualify for this distinction, you are requested to send a letter (do not telephone) to Dr. Leslie Barnette, Secretary of Omicron Chapter, at 4230 Ridge Lea Campus (Department of Psychology) providing him with the indicated information. You should als6 request that the Office of Admissions send to Dr. Barnette an official copy of your transcript. Q: The library has a $20.00 fine if you forget to bring books back at the end of the semester. Isn’t this kind of expensive? A: It looks like it until you know all the facts. First of all, our library is very lenient in allowing students to take out books for the entire semester. Most universities and colleges have a much shorter period. Secondly, this is about the only way in which to insure that books are returned at the end of the semester. Even with this high fine, many books are not returned, and it costs the University somewherebetween $60,000 and $80,000 just to replace books not returned, lost, Journalist killed in Vietnam Saigon SAIGON (LNS) police shot and killed a French journalist March 14 after he refused to reveal his sources for an anti-Saigon government' article he had just written. - According to Saigon police, Paul Leandri, a correspondent for was Presse, Agence France “accidentally killed” when he police away drove from headquarters where he was summoned for questioning. Police claim they fired two warning shots in the air and three at the tires of his car and that one of these accidentally killed Leandri. Other reports indicate that more than three shots were fired at the car. These reports note there were bullet holes in the front and back of the car as well as through the front and back Car crash Police started running after him, fired and killed him. Leandri’s car crashed into the main gate of the headquarters, and when the French consul arrived 90 minutes later, his body was still lying in the car. government The French instructed Ambassador Merillon to protest the conditions in which Paul Leandri was summoned by the authorities and the way he died. And labor unions at Agence France Presse published a joint statement in which Mr. Leandri’s death was described as an by “assassination the less people “These are vulnerable because they are so public,” he said. “And yet there has been a recently, crackdown by the police against some of these legislators too r forcing them to go into hiding or take evasive measures. “Assassinations don’t happen very often just out in the street,” Mr. Spragens continued. “There are other ways to harass people — coming and intimidate them around and questioning their families, or following them all the — time, or arresting them.”' Spragens noted that estimates of the number of people held in Saigon jails run in excess of 200,000. Saigon police.” windshields. Saigonese corruption Leandri, who died instantly from a bullet wound in the head, had been summoned by the police in the past for questioning about articles he had written, specifically one about corruption in the Saigon police department. This time the article in question was about the battle of Bon Mi Thuot. In it Mr. Leandri quoted a priest, an eyewitness to the fighting, as saying that an attack against the city was a revolt Montagnard by anti-Saigon tribesmen joined by the National Liberation name of the priest. Apparently he refused, got very angry and walked out of the office and started to drive away. Front of South Vietnam. The government claims that Montagnards the are anti-communist and that North Vietnamese forces had mounted the assault. According to reports, Mr. Leandri was first summoned to the Immigration Office and then to the police station, where police tried to get him to reveal the “The responsibility of Saigon's authorities in this murder is total and inexcusable,” the unions said. They added that the incident calls for the “strongest condemnation by all journalists of a regime that still dares to claim it defends liberty.” Mr. Leandri’s wife told Saigon police that she was filing charges • of premeditated murder. Repression Repression by Saigon police is hardly something new but, in general, “journalists, especially felt journalists, have foreign themselves out of reach of the police,” explained John Spragens, a reporter just returned from South Vietnam. “In fact,” he added, “they generally are able to get away with things that ordinary people wouldn’t be able to do.” To some extent, Spragens added, this holds true of South Vietnamese opposition legislators and activists like Father Chan Thin of the Prison Committee.

Trying this case is like trying to put the French or American Revolution into a courtroom.” Across the hall the trials of Bernard Stroble (Shango) who is accused of murdering inmate Kenneth Hess, has —continued from page 1— been set for April 7. Despite the fact that four other men are accused of the joint deaths of Mr. Hess and Barry Schwartz, the prosecution has decided to try each of the defendants individually. Frank Smith (Big Black), Herbert Blyden and Roger Champen are not accused of directly murdering the two men, but of felony murder. A felony murder is often charged when a crime victim dies from shock or heart attack Mr. Smith, Mr. Blyden and Mr. Champen, members of the prison negotiating team, are accused of felony murder because the team ordered Messrs. Hess and Schwartz out of the prison yard after they spoke without permission to a news reporter. Mr. Hess and Mr. Schwartz were not seen again, according to the New York State s Official Commission’s report on Attica.

Monday, 24 March 1975 by Brett Kline Staff Writer Spectrum �Baseball Bulls Upsets from South games by John Reiss Spectrum Mark Scarcella of the Heads dribbles by Scopacar Bob Fleming while Dirk Dugan looks on during Buffalo's intramural championship game three weeks ago. The Scopacers won but weren't as lucky in the extramural tournament among area colleges held in Clark hall last week. They lost 69-46 to a Buffalo State contingent. The Staters then defeated a team from Canisius, 107-73, in the finals. Grapplers eyeing a strong conference by Bruce Engel SpOrtt Editor Buffalo’s wrestling Bulls, the University’s best intercollegiate team over the last four years, niay compete next season in a playing conference along with five strong Pennsylvania schools. Athletic Director Harry Fritz has sent a letter to Walter Cummins, assistant athletic director at University of Pittsburgh, expressing an interest in the conference. Pittsburgh and Penn State initiated the effort and requested that Buffalo, Clarion State, Lock Haven State and Bloomsburg State join them as charter members. It is likely that all four schools made similar replies to Cummins. The six wrestling coaches met at Clarion yesterday. Pending approval Dr. Fritz was quick to point out that Buffalo’s final entrance would still require the approval of the Faculty Senate committee on athletics and the Administration. Wrestling coach Ed Michael reported that Dennis Delia, who as chairman of the Student Athletic Review Board, is Student Association’s liaison to the athletic department, supports the move. However, Administration input probably will not be coming for a few days. Executive Vice President Albert Somit was out of his office most of last week, had not heard about the possible conference and could not comment. Howard Tieckleman, Chairman of the Faculty Senate committee on athletics, knew only the basics about the conference, but was encouraged by the idea. “1 can’t see why the committee wouldn't support it,” he said. Both Fritz and Michael strongly support the conference set up, which would assure the Bulls of an alternating home and away series with each of the five schools. Two strong advantages to the conference simplified scheduling and reduced traveling costs. immediately arise All five schools are within 300 miles of Buffalo. “We wouldn t need to go to places like Maryland anymore,” said Michaels. “Penn State and Bloomsburg, the two farthest schools, are only five and a half and six hour rides, respectively. — Make some money In addition to reduced traveling and having five guaranteed matches, the conference opens the possibility for increased revenue. Michael feels that a big name like Penn State, whom the Bulls have never wrestled before, might draw a lot of people. More importantly, a conference tournament held in wrestling crazy Pennsylvania could be lucrative for all conference members. The strength of the teams themselves is a major attraction. Penn State, Clarion, and Buffalo were all in the top twenty in the nation this season and the others are not far behind. In fact the Bulls, who also defeated Clarion this season, beat Lock Haven by only one point. The conference would not be as strong at the top as the Big Ten or the Big Eight (the traditional wrestling powers) but it might be deeper in strong teams. Michael feels that if two other strong teams are eventaully added, from its the conference might get as many as four national qualifiers conference tournament. “A conference meet gives the wrestlers and the fans something to look forward to,” Michael said. Eight of Buffalo’s other intercollegiate teams will begin competing has in a Western New York Conference next fall and the hockey team would be But this a years. Two for several been in the ECAC’s Division first for wrestling, and it is a commitment Michael would enjoy making. Set a level “It would set a level for us to work towards,” he said. “All these something to teams are committed to a good program. It would be work at that is not unreasonable.” Buffalo’s strong reputation caused Pittsburgh and Penn State to seek out the Bulls, but basically the conference is a result of their leaving the ECAC and wanting to form new alliances. They have done a similar thing with their basketball programs. “We’re benefitting from their quest to get better,” said Michael. Staff Writer After one of their best seasons in history, the “new” baseball Bulls have returned from a disappointing two week trip to Florida. Buffalo lost nine of ten games and have come north with some big question marks. The pitching staff, which was thought to be the team’s strength when they left for Florida, had a pretty rough time. On the other hand, Buffalo’s hitting, previously considered weak, was excellent. Monkarsh, however, is playing down the team’s losing record and is quick to point out that they played some of the best collegiate teams in the nation. “Even with my best team ever,” Monkarsh said, “we won only three games in Florida. This year we were in every game, often losing by one or two runs.” Playing in Florida gave Monkarsh a better chance than he had had last fall to evaluate his team. This season, the Bulls were faced with the rask of replacing the entire infield. The Southern trip has accomplished that. New infield Sophomore Jack Kaminska, will be the Bulls’ this season. Kaminska displayed great hustle and has emerged as the team leader. Completing the double play combination with Kaminska will be freshman second baseman Mike Groh. Groh is an excellent hitter and had many key hits in Florida. A gifted and versatile fielder, Groh canplay both second and htird, and turns over the starting shortstop double play well. At first base will be righthanded slugging junior Bob Amico, who hit 432 in Florida. Third base is left to either senior Jim Zadora or junior Bruce Kaumeyer. The strong hitting Zadora, will definitely start somewhere. Kaumeyer, on the other hand, was a big surprise. Considered earlier to be the 26th man on a 25 man roster, he may have won himself a starting job. In evaluating his infield Monkarsh feels that his team is adequate offensively and has come a long way defensively. “The players are just getting to know each other,” he explained. Buffalo’s outfield is anchored by the awesome hitting of Rick Wolstenholme. Wolstenholme hit an amazing .513 in Florida and is being followed by many pro scouts. Junior Frank Presioso and freshman Mark Scarcello have good shots at the starting left and right field jobs. However, the exact make-up of the outfield is in doubt with the uncertainty of Zadora’s place and the possibility of junior Jim May breaking into the line-up. Good hitting Monkarsh feels it is crucial to get as much hitting as possible from his outfield. The club’s defense though, may suffer for this. Monkarsh considers the Bulls’ defensive outfield performance disappointing thus far. Catching should be a strong suit with sophomore Mike Dixon getting the starting job. Dixon shone defensively in Florida throwing out every runner who attempted to steal. Poor pitching The biggest disappointment of all was the pitching, even though most of the pitchers are upperclassmen who have proven themselves in the past. “The staff has outstanding potential,” Monkarsh explained. “However, the pitchers must each work out their own individual problems.” Overall, the Bulls strength seems to lie in their hit .311 as a team and were able to steal off every club. Buffalo should do a lot of stealing and hit and run this year. Summing up his team’s southern performance, Monkarsh said, “I’m disappointed but not discouraged. I had very high hopes in Florida and am encouraged by our hitting. If the pitching comes around we will be strong contenders for the hitting and team speed. They playoffs.” Delia: behind the sports scene by Paige Miller Spectrum Staff Writer NOw that the battle of the athletic budget had been fought, Buffalo’s sports fans can once again direct their attention to which teams are winning and why. However, there is still a lot of work to be done behind the scenes. Much of it falls on sophomore Dennis Delia, newly appointed Chairman of the Student Athletic Review Board (SARB) “One of the things I would like to see accomplished is getting a different kind of publicity worked out on this campus,” said Delia. “So far, what we have hasn’t been very successful or comprehensuve. For example, if you asked the average student, he’s not going to know what teams exist, let alone what their schedule is.” One of Delia’s main criticisms has been directed at Sports Information Director Dick Baldwin. Delia claims that Baldwin has not done anything in the on-campus for “I’ve -been publicity. past commissioned by the Student Assemby to investigate the possibility of having students, either by committee or by appointment, work with Baldwin to let the students know what’s going on,” Delia said. Delia sent a letter to Baldwin asking for an appointment to discuss the matter. Baldwin replied that he could come in and talk at any time. However he won’t discuss specifics until he and Delia have a chance to meet. of chartering Blue Bird for road trips. From September to late February when Deha was appointed, the position of SARB Chairman was vacant. “I didn’t want to see a whole year go by without a SARB Chairman,” said Deha, a member of the wrestling team. It was definitely hurting the Athletic Department. The time without a SRAB Chairman caused a huge gap in communications, a huge amount of distrust (leading to the temporary freeing of the athletic budget) and successful or On-campus budget Delia also fought for money to be allocated in next year’s budget specifically for on-campus publicity, something which had not been done in previous budgets. Seventeen hundred dollars was approved for on-campus publicity, but so far, no definite plans have been made regarding its use. “I’d like to see The Spectrum get involved.” said Delia. “We could put ads in The Spectrum that owuld have when the events are.” He also pointed out that University Press could be contracted to print posters and game programs. Currently, game programs are printed by Grover Cleveland Press at a cost of $103 for each game. “I think they could cut the price by two-thirds if they went to University Press,” Delia noted. Another objective of SARB is to determine the feasibility of returning football to the Buffalo scene, on either club or a low intercollegiate level. Delia would also like to see if the Athletic Department could use vehicles owned by the University instead —Center Dennis Delia comprehensive. For example, if you asked the average nomination was vetoed by the SA, Delia applied for the job. Delia was glad to see a budget passed that was acceptable to most people, although the actual budget proposed by SARB was defeated. “It was significant because for the first time in a long time, the Athletic Department had a budget to work with before they had to commit the funds,” he remarked. “It’s a plus for both organizations, the Athletic Department and SA.” Monday, 24 March 1975 .
