The Amherst Story: Facts, Figures
By PAUL SCIABARRASI
and MICHAEL D'AMICO

Over the past few weeks there
has been revitalized interest in
the Buffalo waterfront area as
an alternative site for the new
campus of SUNYAB now scheduled to be built in Amherst.
Feasibility of the waterfront
area is a question that will undoubtedly require a great deal ol
study. However, dealings concerning the Amherst site, the recommendation, the approval, the
purchase and the progress to
date are history. Parts of that
history, from time to time, have
been released to the public. Most
recent releases have begun to fill
in the picture, and although it
is not yet complete, the great
majority of the Amherst story is
now known. Only a careful study
of the University’s actions from
the very beginning can provide a
full understanding of where matters and motives are today.

Amherst Chosen
Sometime prior to January,
1964, it was decided, most probably by the UB Council or the
State University Board of Trustees, that a study should be made
as to the advantages and disadvantages of five possible locations for the building of a new
campus for the State University
at Buffalo. The five sites
to be studied included (1) Grand
Island, (2) Amherst, (3) Elma,
(4) Cheektowaga, and (5) Downtown Buffalo. The study, of considerable length and detail, was
compiled between January and
April of 1964 by Mr. Vincent J.
Moore, who was a former Buffalo
city planning aide (1956-1959) and
presently is a planning consultant for the State Budget Division in Albany. The report, which
considered various facets of each
of the five sites, was approximately 60 pages in length, including maps and aerial photos, and
was submitted, without recommendation, to the State University
Construction Fund. All the SUCF
did was reproduce Moore’s document and forward it, again without recommendation, to J. Lawrence Murray, then Acting President of the State University. Murray, in town, submitted the Moore
report with a “central staff’ rec-

ommendation for the Amherst
site to the Board of Trustees at
their June 11, 1964 meeting. This
meeting was the one time the
Trustees dealt with the site issue. Minutes of the meeting reveal that the Board, acting, on a
motion by then Trustee Edwin F.
Jaeckle of Buffalo, voted unani
mously to accept the report and
acquire the land in Amherst. The
SUNY then announced that they
would build the greater part of
the new University in Amherst.
There was no public discussion,
open investigation or dissent.
The Nature of the Area
The land purchased is an 800
acre site bordered by Sweet Home

Road, Millersport Highway, and
Ellicott Creek. Parts of the proposed site are as much as six
miles from the present campus
although the distance from the
main street entrance of the existing campus to the tract at Millersport and Maple is 3.5 miles.
Across Millersport Highway, adjacent to the Amherst site, are
an additional 350 acres previously
owned by the University. This
land, obtained from the Town of
Amherst by swapping the University-owned Audubon Golf
Course, will be used as an athletic field.
A close examination of the area
reveals the following: on the
northern border of the campus is
Ellicott Creek. The Creek is polluted by the Towns of Amherst
and Alden sewage plants, and at
times becomes stagnant. During
heavy rains, the creek overflows
its banks from 100 to 700 feet in
either direction. The Amherst

sewage treatment plant, just to

the south of the proposed site,

causes occasional objectionable
odors.

The land is level, marred by
several forest areas and the Niagara Mohawk Power line. At
present, storm water runs off the
land by natural courses and may
overflow from open ditches during heavy rains.
Topsoil east of Millersport is
not suitable for stripping and
abolit 1100 acres of topsoil will
have to be imported. Soft clay is
characteristic of this area and
could create various problems
for construction.

The area offers reasonably good
accessability by private transportation
ten miles via streets and
15 miles via expressway from
downtown. Distance to the airport
is 8 miles and to the rail terminal
is 9 miles.

have to be re-

lied upon. Employment opportun
ities are approximately the same
as the Main Street campus but
there is little local housing available.

Progress to Date
The University has spent just

short of four million dollars for
the acquisition and programming
of the site. Originally, construction costs (excluding planning
and acquisition) were fixed at
two hundred and fifty million
dollars. Revised figures indicate
a cost possibly exceeding four
hundred million dollars.
There were to be three phases
of construction each being completed in two year intervals beginning in 1968. Completion of
phase one has been moved up to
1970, indicating the other two
phases will also be two years
behind the original schedule.

Construction was to have begun
this fall but was delayed supposedly because of sub-surface soil
testing which has been going on
for two years, according to Mr.
Doemland, Director of the University’s office of Planning and
Development. Information obtained from a reliable architectural
firm has pointed out that subsoil testing and analysis for a
tract of land 1100 acres large
should take from three to six
months allowing enough time for
overcoming any possible problems. This can be broken down
to the drilling of six holes per
building per day. Two years is
ible for testing
believed unn
and analysis.
In the spring, Mr Martin Mey
Dean of The School of
Environmental Design at the University of California at Berkeley,
was appointed the new president

erson.

of the S.U.N.Y. at Buffalo effective September 1, 1966, It is believed that Mr. Meyerson, one of
the outstanding professional city
planners in the country, raised
some questions about the University’s proposed expansion. This
may be the reason why no master
planning or construction planning has begun. State highway
officials have substantiated this
lag in planning by stopping all
work on the Lockport Expressway and the expanded Millcrsporl
Highway which involves the Am-

herst campus area. Once Meyerson
assumes the presidency, planning
may gel under way.

Need for Interim Campus
The delay has caused a need
for building an interim campus
on Niagara Falls Blvd. The building to be constructed by the
Maret Corporation of Pittsburgh will be just south of the
Youngmann Memorial Highway,
approximately one mile from the
proposed Amherst campus. Amherst Town Board has granted a
clearance for the development of
up to 375,000 square feet of office, classroom and laboratory
space. This approval came after
the University signed a five year
lease with the Maret Corporation. The ruling overturned an
earlier recommendation of the
Amherst Planning Board to deny
a building permit for the facility.
Why Amhant?

Since the Board of Trustees,
in one meeting, voted unanimously to accept the Amherst site,
they must have weighed heavily
the recommendation for Amherst
made by Mr. Murray and of the
"central staff”. A close contender
for the new site appears to have
been the Buffalo location. One
possible reason for the rejection
of the Buffalo site might have
been a political struggle which
existed between then Mayor Chester Kowal and the State Senator
from the Amherst district, Walter
J. Mahoney, who, as Senate Majority Leader, was considered the
second most powerful man in
New York State. In 1964, corn-

munication between Governor
Rockefeller’s office and that of
the Mayor was at a low ebb.
Mahoney and Kowal communicated even less.

Mr. Walter J. Mahoney is now a
partner in a law firm with connections with the Maret Corporation.
In addition to signing the lease
for construction on the interim
campus, the Pittsburgh firm has
also been retained for construction on the Amherst site.
Irrevocable or Not Irrevocable?
J. Lawrence Murray, Executive
Vice-President of the State University, has made it clear that

development of the Amherst

cam-

pus has advanced too far for a
shift in location. "In my opinion,
Ihe decision to locale in Amherst
is irrevocable,” Mr. Murray said.
Dr. William J. O'Connor, in a

speech before the Kensington Kiwanis Club on July 25, 1966, expressed an opinion that building
in Amherst is a necessity because
of the area available. He has said
that "When one visualizes the
scope of this project it is more
readily understandable why the
200-acre site on Ihe waterfront
and an equivalent site at Grover
Cleveland Park arc totally inadequate.”

State Assemblyman Albert J.
Hausbcck after an interview with
slate officials drew the conclusion
that they arc unable to give any
reason why the waterfront site
cannot be used. Albany authorities state that final commitments
on the Amherst site have not
been made. It is not too late to
consider the waterfront area. As
far as size is concerned, although
Dr. O’Connor has mentioned a
200-acre site on the waterfront,
the Moore report envisioned 460
acres of possible available land
and an additional 260 acres which
can be reclaimed from the Lake
Erie Basin. This is undoubtedly
sufficient for building an extremely large University, as has
been amply proven by the Universities of Minnesota, Illinois,
and Ohio State.

Open Hearings Aug. 10;
Urges Participation
The initial hearings of the Task
Force will take place in Baird
Hall on August 10, beginning at
7:15, and August 11, beginning
at 4:00 p.m. The hearings are
open. The university public is
invited to attend all hearings,
and all interested parties, groups
or individuals, are invited to present their views and recommendations, the only limitation on the
testimony being that these be
relevant to the mandate of the
Task Force. The mandate reads:
“I.) to inquire into and make
proposals with respect to establishing an open and continual
dialogue among such groups (students, faculty and administration); 2.) to make such proposals
as (the committee) deem(s) appropriate regarding organizational

Seminar Study of Children's Classics
Will Culminate in European Tour
On July 25, after three weeks
of intensive classroom study of
children’s classics, Mr. Robert
Dalke and his seminar in children’s literature left on a twentytwo day tour of the European
settings which inspired such famous authors as Han Christian
Anderson. Johanna Spyri, A. A.
Milne and the Brothers Grimm.
“We’re going to attempt to
relive these famous children's
fantasies,” said Mr. Dalke, elementary curriculum coordinator
of the Orchard Park Schools.
During the seven country tour
which will take them to the
homes, birthplaces and locales
which produced the writers and
their classics, the students will
be lodged at European hotels or
country inns in the fairytale settings which for so long have fascinated the young.
The culinary agenda is designed to recreate traditional
folk environments. England's kidney pie and yorkshire pudding
is only one of the many representative menus which the travelling scholars will sample. At the
very cottage in Maienfeld, Switzerland. where Heidi had her
first meal with the grandfather,
they will have a dinner consisting of round loaves of dark

bread, cheese melted over the
fire and goat’s milk.
As exciting as the trip may be,
it has been preceded by arduous
research and study of not only
the authors and their works, but
also of the history, climate, geography, and culture of their
homelands.
“They’re staying up until all
hours of the night studying,”
Mr. Dalke said. “I have never
taught a finer or more enthusiastic group of people.”
The objects of the professor's
praise were chosen from a field
of over 70 applicants after careful screening by Mr. Dalke. They
are all graduate students, and
most are elementary school
teachers.
To enable a more penetrating
glimpse into each country and its
authors, the students have been
divided into five groups, each
of which has been assigned a
specific area of study. These
groups have given talks on England, Germany and Switzerland,
France, Ireland and Denmark, illustrated by maps, slides and
charts, and background and criticism of their assigned country’s
writers.

This classroom format will also
have its advantages when the
scholars are abroad. “Each group
will be our experts in their particular country when we're there,”
said Mr. Dalke.
The group specializing in Ireland will have the first chance
to show its expertise, as the
fairytale tour will begin in that
country. In England, they will

visit the homes of Beatrix Potter,
A. A. Milne, and Anne Hathaway.
The travellers’ visit to Paris
will take them to the homes of
the creators of Madeleine and
Babar the Elephant, Ludwig Bemelmans and Jean de Brunhoff.
The group will interview Maurice Druon, French author of
“Tistou of the Green Thumbs.”
The tour of Heidi’s Swiss surroundings will be followed by an
excursion to the Brothers Grimm
country around Frankfurt, Germany.

The last stop on the group’s
itinerary will be Copenhagen,
where they will visit Hamlet’s
Castle, the Frederiksborg Palace
and the Island of Funen birthChristian Ander-

place of Hans
sen.

Mr. Dalke, who has sometimes
been called “our storyteller” by
Orchard Park children, said,
“There isn’t one book we have
studied this summer that the
kids don’t love when it is read
to them. But more children are
not going to read them until
more teachers know them.”
Given the knowledge, European experiences, and happy
enthusiasm of Mr. Dalke’s teachers, children’s television programs may find some stiff competition from the classics.
A student with a special role is
Miss Lieve Vankerckhoeven, Mr.
Dalke’s Belgian born graduate
assistant, who will act as translator and travel aide for the
group. A former American Field
Service Exchange Student, Hiss
Vankerckhoven resides at 71
Weber Avenue, Buffalo.

THUS

Review: PIGEONS and THE BLIND MEN
The Absurd and the Grotesque
were the subjects of The Workship Repertory Theatre of Buffalo’s dramatic productions presented July 22 and 23 in the Millard Fillmore Room.

Two one-

act plays, Pigeons, by Lawrence
Osgood and Michel de Ghelder-

ode's Tha Blind Mon, illustrated
two facets of contemporary theatre bound by the prevailing
conditions of life for the 20th
century man as a purposeless,
senseless, and incongruous existence. A contemporary aspect of
the plays resulted from the two
distinguishing concepts of modern theatre trend: the “poetic
avant-gard” theatre of de Ghelderode which strives toward the
lyrical, imagistic poetry of verbal associations, making it much
less violent and grotesque than
its counterpart, the Theatre of
the Absurd, which plays upon
the degenerate nature and devaluation of language in order
to elicit its poetry from the concrete and objective image of

Stage per se. as evident in Osgood’s Pigeons. The basic con-

siderations of the lacks of harmony, certainty, communications
of the human condition are essentially alike.

Rosalind Cramer as the aloof upper class, dignified and elderly;
Esther Swartz as a middle-class
“social worker” who really has
no idea what’s happening; and
finally the rough-mouthed and
floozy lower classed member
played by Karlie Roth. The women are “exiled” into the garbageland of an empty lot in New York
City where they are cut off from
any external cues except those
which they bring within themselves. A power struggle ensues,
during which each faction attempts to gain control of the
group by its own idiosyncratic

She attempts to remold the other
two in a sort of new “socialization”, which ultimately results
in a final decay of any previous
class structure or order (regardless of the presence of the social
worker), as the women turn into
“pidgeons” and are last seen
strutting in a circle faster and
faster singing “My Bonny Lies
Over the Ocean” in an ascending

shrieking pitch. Why pigeons?
Pigeons are dull and scavenging
dirty birds who flock together
in the safety of a bellfry, never
venturing to the outer limits of
the skyway. Pigeons have bethey
come socialized animals

up and down the park avenues
cooing incomprehensibly. In Osgood’s play, the distinct parellels
between man as a “social being”
and the society of pigeons slowly
merge into one huge trilling and
flapping state of ridiculousness.

Task Force Memoranda
Meeting of July 15, 1966

Present were nine members
and a recording secretary.
The co-chairmen reported on
their conference of July 14 with
Dr. Furnas. They said that they
had stressed the facts that the
committee considered its responsibilities to the academic community of transcendent importance, that it planned (1) to hold
open hearings and (2) to study
governing procedures on this and
other campuses, and that, it the
results of the committee’s work
were to have genuine significance,
it must have secretarial and research assistance as well as funds
for such items as a telephone in
Norton Union, postage, and the
expenses contingent with recording testimony at the hearings and
reproducing minutes and memoranda. Dr. Furnas replied by urging that the committee submit
to his office a budget outlining
its needs for the current fiscal
year. He gave the impression that
a budgetary request would receive
careful consideration and, in fact,
suggested that travel expenses be
added to it to cover the possibilities of sending a committeeman to other campuses to study
their governing systems.
When the co-chairmen finished
their report it was proposed that
travel money could also cover the
expenses of bringing consultants
from other campuses to Buffalo.
The co-chairmen established a
subcommittee to meet and draw
up the budget proposal immediately after the committee had
adjourned.

In regard to the Medical-Dental
Student Association’s having representation on the Task Force,
the Graduate Student representatives reported that they had contacted the Association and it had
manifested considerable interest
in being represented. The committee decided that the co-chairmen should invite the Association
to send an interim observer to
committee meetings until such
time as it could elect a perma-

nent representative.

The committee agreed that, al-

though the Subcommittee on Organizational Analysis would have
difficulty in beginning its research until it had research as-

sistance, the Subcommittee on
Hearings could get to work immediately. The chairmen of both
subcommittees called meetings
for the 19th. It was felt that the
former subcommittee could at
least explore the possibilities of
making contacts on other campuses and availing itself of materials already existing on this

campus. The second subcommit-

was instructed to consider

due consideration decided that
$100 would not be sufficient even
for its work through the summer.
In the circumstances, it considered alternate sources for funds.
Recalling that its original plan
had been to ask only for emergency money to cover the period
until September 1, and agreeing
to return to this concept, the
committee decided to approach
the Faculty-Student Association
for an interim appropriation. The
co-chairmen were asked to communicate the formal application.

tee

what procedures should be followed to ensure that its hearings
would indeed be informative and
exhaustive.

Meeting of July 22, 1966

Present were eight members
and a temporary recording secretary provided by one of the members.
The proposed budet was the
first topic of business. The cochairmen reported that the ad
hoc budget subcommittee had met
and, following Dr. Furnas’ suggestions and the committee’s
guidelines, had prepared an annual budget which was delivered
to the President’s office on Monday morning, the 18th.
On Wednesday, the 20th, the
co-chairmen received a letter
from the President giving his
decision. This message was now
read to the committee. In substance Dr. Furnas wrote that the
adjustments involved in granting the committee’s request, that
1/12 of its proposed annual budget be allocated to cover its work
of the summer, could not be made
in the 1966-67 budget. His office
offered to make available $100
toward the committee’s secretarial expenses for the period until
September 1. Although the President’s reply did not address itself directly to the other ll/12’s
of the request it did among other
things suggest (1) that considering the additional on-campus obligations of its members, the Task
Force was setting itself too great
a task and (2) that all research
contingent with its work could
better be done by the members
themselves without the aid of
research assistance. The letter
concluded with the statement that
if Dr. Furnas’ successor desired
to modify the position implicit
in this letter he should feel free
to do so. (Dr. Furnas had sent
a copy to Dean Meyerson.)

The discussion which followed
the reading made obvious that
the committee was still convinced
of three things: (1) the immense
importance of its assignments and
responsibilities and the urgency
of its producing early and tangible evidence that it understands
this fact; (2) the magnitude of
its task if it is to discharge these
ultimate obligations and (3) the
absolute need for the funds for

Dr. Furnas had also been ap-

proached with a request that he
make available to the Task Force
copies of the newly proposed bylaws of the Faculty Senate. In a
second letter now read to the
committee, he replied that he
did not wish to release the bylaws until they had been considered by the whole Faculty Senate
and the SUNYAB Council, and
until he was satisfied that they
did not conflict with the policies
being developed at Albany.

The Chairman of the Subcommittee on Hearings now gave his
report. The subcommittee had
decided to hold two open hearings in August and to continue
hearings into the fall if necessary
to give all interested parties in
the academic community the opportunity to testify. The point
was emphasized, however, that although the number of hearings is
not limited, the sooner all testimony is heard the sooner the
subcommittee can submit its final
report. The members agreed that
when possible the hearings should
be held in midweek in order to
serve the larger number of people then on campus and that they
should be alternated between
afternoons and evenings to ease
conflicts with classes, meetings,

There were some very good
moments and laughs in this (recognizable?) situation. Esther
Swartz made her acting debut in
this play and exhibited a good

sense of stage presence, especially during a popcorn-eating scene;

KarMe Roth, however, turned in

forced. On the whole, each ac-

the squeaky, whining speech of

The members expressed the
hopes (1) that interested campus
groups holding similar opinions
would send common spokesmen
to obviate needless repetition and
expedite the hearings; (2) that
when a prospective speaker first

contacted the subcommittee he
would state whether he represented himself or some group and
give some indication of what topic
he wished to discuss. (With this
advanced information, the committee can prepare itself for
garnering all possible benefit
from the testimony); and (3) that
speakers will hold in mind the
mandate of the Task Force and
direct their testimony to means
for implementing the two specific ends in view.
The co-chairman of the Subcommittee on Organizational Analysis reported for his subcommittee. Until they had research
assistance the members decided

/

what the play was about) such as:
“This is absurd” and a discussion
of the “natural order of things.”
and the repetitive sure-Iaugh-getter “shit-chat” (“stuff it up” and
"blow it out your ass”) was making the play into a cute wordburlesque. The message could
surely have been received by
just the vigorous and fast-moving,
slapstick-like action, coupled with
the auditory element previously
mentioned.
Just as the language detracted (purposely perhaps) from the
general staging of Pigeons, so did
it enhance de Ghelderode’s The
Blind Men. Much doesn't have
it
to be said about this play
was more of a poetic experience.
But a few points: the place is
Europe during the Middle Ages
—or today, if you will. The Blind
Men describes a universal condiensuing death
tion of all men
—and the illusory nature of his
quest for that "lost homeland”
—

—

(Cont’d on Pg. 7)

on two courses of action. First of
all, agreeing that the obvious
source of information on the present institutional structure of this
campus was the Office of Institutional Research, they planned
to invite Dr. Anderson, the head
of the office, to speak to the Task
Force on this subject. Secondly,
they would immediately put the
subcommittee in correspondence
with some twenty-five universities
and colleges at which circumstances exist comparable in various aspects to those at SUNYAB.
Three letters would be sent to
each institution —one to the undergraduate student association,
one to the graduate student association, and one to the office
of the president—each giving the
background and mandate of the
Task Force, the purpose of the
subcommittee, and a request for
the contacted parties to submit
whatever information they consider pertinent.

Spectrum and WBFO staling that

MY CAMPUS DOES
THE HANKY PANKY

The Forecast Is Hot

That this University now finds itself under attack from
various quarters regarding the new Amherst campus can
in large part be ascribed to the manner in which the enterprise was planned and the ostensible indolence in which
the plans are being effected.
From the beginning, the project has lacked the confidence of much of the academic community for a number
of reasons;
1) There seems to have been totally inadequate consultation with students, faculty, and alumni concerning a)
the location of the campus, b) the kind of campus these
groups desired, and c) some kind of mechanism by which
these groups could approve the final plans. To the latter
point, Planning and Development answered that the students
and faculty were not experts. It does not take an expert over
two years to take soil tests on 1000 acres of land. Nor do
experts find themselves claustrophobic in windowless, Kafkaesque lecture halls or choked by the dust of erstwhile
mudholes. Experts seldom live in their handiwork. Evidently Planning and Development has been consulting with various departments concerning what they need in the way of
facilities, but this seems hardly sufficient—it is after the
fact. Perhaps the students and faculty should each be given
the money to hire architectural consultants to make sure
their needs will be considered.
2) So far the original study of the five possible sites
(the Moore report) and the proceedings of the meetings
at which the Amherst site was chosen have not been released

to the public. This seems strange. Dr. Murray, Executive

Vice President of the State University, served on a “central
staff” which made the final approval of the Amherst site
off the Moore report. Moore made no specific recommendations but current rumor has it that the downtown waterfront
site was objectively the best location. This might explain
why none of the report or meetings memoranda have been
released—Amherst may not be the best of all possible sites.
3) The delays on construction and reasons given therefor can hardly be expected to gain the confidence of the
academic or outside community. While general planning
for space requirements, etc., continues unabated, other
seemingly primary areas of planning lag on. It has taken
over two years to take soil tests on the 1000 acres and they
have yet to be completed. The Spectrum talked to an architectural firm and was told that it should take a maximum
of seven months. Construction of buildings has also been
delayed possibly as late as the Spring of 1968. It has also
been recently discovered that there is not now and never
has been a planning schedule. Originally the project was
divided into three major phases.

Many questions remain. Perhaps the most important
of these is the wisdom of the Amherst site—certainly this
has been impugned by the manner in which the University
has planned and carried out its development. The time has
come for an open review of the whole issue. What confidence remains cannot but be bolstered by such a review.

THE TASK FORCE

TO THE EDITOR:
Rejecting, totally, the political,
theological, literary, philosophical and academic assumptions
which hinge our society to the
withered refrigerator of civilization (and which are, in any case,
rooted in stupidity and class interest) and insisting, moreover,
on our own irresistabie emotional
autonomy, we find it essential to
affirm, here and now, without
reservations and at any price, the
marvelous red and black validity
of absolute revolt, the only attitude worthy of survival in the
present millenium of streets and
dreams.
More than ever, with everything continually at stake, we
find it necessary to affirm the
impassioned use of the most
dangerous weapons in the arsenal
of freedom:

MAD LOVE: totally subversive,
the absolute enemy of bourgeois
culture;
opposed to literlike a machinegun, exterminating the blind
flags of immediate reality;

POETRY:

(as

ature) breathing

HUMOR: the dynamite and
guerilla warfare of the mind, as
effective in its own domain as
material dynamite and guerilla
warfare in the streets (when necessary, however, rest assured:
we shall use every means at our
disposal);
SABOTAGE; ruthless and relentless destruction of the bureaucratic and cultural machinery
of oppression.

Advantages of Downtown Campus
TO VHE EDITOR:
I am greatly surprised that the
proposal to locate the new campus downtown or on the waterfront has not been given more
serious consideration. It would
seem to offer many advantages,
both to the student body and the
city of Buffalo as a whole. Because of the convenience to
stores and theaters, both students
and downtown merchants would
benefit as a result of this location. The proximity to the main
business district would also be
advantageous to students holding
part time jobs to help finance
their education.

The Task Force has run into its first snag with the
President’s Office. It seems that the “immediate need
of opening and maintaining a dialogue among students,
faculty, and administrative groups” (i.e., the mandate of
the Committee) was that of averting a Hayes Hall sit-in.
The Task Force now cannot even get sufficient financial and
secretarial aid from the President’s Office to further its

to begin training in mid-Septem.

It is necessary, at times (and
this is one of them) to speak
bluntly: we affirm deliriously
and simply the TOTAL LIBERATION OF MAN.
Long live the Negroes of Watts,
the Puerto Ricans of Chicago, the
Provos of Amsterdam, the Zengakuren of Japan and the youth
of all countries who burn cop
cars in the street and demonstrate by these exemplary manifestations that the struggle for
freedom cannot be guided by the
rulebooks of priests and poli-

or financial reasons. It would also
benefit the total urban renewal
program by bringing persons of
higher educational and social
backgrounds into blighted areas,
tending to upgrade the area and
decrease the social separation of
the middle class suburbanite and
the inner city resident. This
seems desirable. The Millersport
Highway location would inconvenience the students and many faculty members, while it might deal
an injurious blow to the already
depressed economy of downtown
Buffalo.

Other points that no one has
brought out before tend to sup-

port the same conclusion. There
is almost no off-campus housing
in the Millersport area that students could afford. This would
tend to penalize the student who
goes off campus for reasons of
economy. If someone could pay
high rent or support

mobile, however, the inconvenience would be minimal. The average student would probably
have to live in the dorms, even
if he could have previously found
more economical housing. I often
wonder if the administration has
considered the fact that this
might injure the very persons for
whom public education has been
designed. I wonder if they have
considered the abridgement of
freedom of choice involved in
such a policy. I also wonder if
they have considered the astronomical costs that would fall upon
the backs of the people of New
York if 90% of the out of state
students had to be housed in
dormitories.
I might point out in conclusion,
that if the University is to obtain
land downtown, it must act now.
A lakefront complex of high rise
buildings with a green belt between them could be most attractive, and the land in Amherst
would be available when the offspring of today’s youth need more
college space. In twenty years
U.B. may need three campuses.
This way it would be far more
feasible to provide for inevitable
urban and college expansion.

The use of the downtown location now, while holding more
land in reserve, would seem highly advantageous to the students,
the University and the people of
Buffalo, in the near future and
in the years to come.

ies of the statement will be sent
to President Johnson, Senators
Kennedy and Javits, local congressmen, Hanoi, and the National Liberation Front. The statement will be reprinted in next

Forty Canadians from Niagara
Falls, Ontario, will vigil on the

Draper thinks that “the antiwar sentiment in this country and
around the world is growing. The
only way wars will ever cease is
for citizens to demonstrate to
their governments their opposition to war as a means of solving
political questions.”

CNVA invites those interested
in affirming their belief in peace
to participate in the Walk, either
for the entire distance or for
as long as possible. In the event
of extreme heat, CNVA will provide salt pills and beverages.
Transportation from the Peace
Bridge back to campus will also
be provided.

The following statement was
issued on August 3 by State University of New York President
Samuel B. Gould regarding expansion plans for the State University at Buffalo:
“It has been brought to my attention that some question has
been raised as to the intention of
State University to carry out its
announced decision of June, 1964,
to expand the State University of
New York at Buffalo into a new
campus in Amherst. I am in full
accord with this decision reached
by the State University trustees
and the Council of the University

at Buffalo after careful study. I
assure everyone concerned that
planning for the continued use of
the Main Street campus and for
the development of the Amherst
campus will be expedited as rapidly as all circumstances permit.
I hope that this statement will
put an end to any further speculation which can only do a disservice to the University, to the
people of Amherst who have
made us feel welcome and to

the thousands of students from
Western New York and all over
the State who need these educational facilities.”

One expects more from the State University of New
York than President Samuel Gould’s statement regarding
the expansion plans of this campus. Dr, Gould’s statement
indicates that he is ignorant of the actual proceedings leading to the decision to build in Amherst. Gould also shows
a disturbing willingness to cut off debate on the issue, an
action completely inimical to the long university tradition
of inquiry and debate.
Gould states that he is “in full accord with this decision
[to locate the campus in Amherst] reached by the State

University trustees and the Council of the University of
Buffalo after careful study.” That Gould considers his
sources of information amenable to a “careful study,” only
indicates how uninformed he is on the whole issue. Reliable
sources cast doubt on his statement that the UB Council
ever debated the issue. And the State University Trustees
spent but one meeting (June 11, 1964) to approve the Amherst site unanimously. Certainly Dr. Gould cannot consider such facility to be the product of “careful study.” In
fact, the only careful study seems to have been the site

Urban Extension Center to Be Established
Five area colleges this year will
launch a project aiming at the
establishment of a “Cooperative
Urban Extension Center” to promote university-community dialogue on such local problems as
poverty, integration, transportation, government and planning.
The prime contractor of the
program is State University at
Buffalo's evening division, Millard Fillmore College, supported
by Canisius College, D’Youville
College, Erie County Technical
Institute and Rosary Hill College.
It is being financed by a $30,000
grant provided under Title I of
the Higher Education Act of
1965 which calls for community
service and urban extension.
The immediate concern of proleaders, according to Dr.
Robert F. Berner, Millard Fillmore College Dean and initiator
of the project, is organizing the
Cooperative Urban Extension Center. which will operate under an
executive board comprised of
University and governmental and
community agency representatives.
gram

Center headquarters will be
situated in downtown Buffalo,
one suggested location being the
Eagle Street building now occupied by the State University at
Buffalo’s Law School. The Law
School has offered a minimal
amount of space as preliminary
to an eventual takeover by the
Center upon the present occupant’s move to the University’s
Amherst campus.
At first serving

as

a university
community meeting ground for
defining and analyzing urban
problems, the Center will eventually be utilized as a base for
training community leaders, who
then in turn will train other po-

tential leaders.

Dr. Berner said the program
was organized at an ad hoc advisory committee meeting held
earlier this year and attended by
representatives of the participating colleges, as well as community leaders from the Mayor’s Of-

fice and Common Council, the
City Planning Committee, the
Community Welfare Council, the
Commission on Human Relations

NDEA Checks Arrive;

After two months, the first

Aid.

When asked why the actual
took so long, Mrs.
Norma Haas, Executive Secretary to the Committee of Financial Aid to Students, explained the process to the Spectrum.
“We cannot make an award until
the student has registered.” Federal law requires a summer
school student to register for at
least six hours to be eligible for
the loan. It takes from two to
three weeks for Admissions and
Records to determine whether or
not a student has been properly
registered. Once approved, the
student is put on an agenda and
is eventually called in to sign
a promissory note and loyalty
oath. A voucher is then sent to
Albany where it takes from six
to eight weeks for the first check
to arrive. The University, in the
meantime, ma yprovide tuition
waiver and bookstore credit if
the student applicant has filed
on time. “We teel a moral obligation to see that they’re paid."
explained Mrs. Haas.

Approximately 120 people from
the East Coast and from Puerto
Rico and the Virgin Islands are
expected to participate in the
program. Dr. Carl Minnich, Director of the Amherst High School
Adult School, is Project Director
and Dr. Nicholas Kish, Jr., Assistant Dean of the University’s Millard Fillmore College, is Adminis-

trative Director.

A $36,000 grant from the U.S.
Office of Education, administered
by the National University Extension Association, will provide
•utstanding consultants for the
institute.

The committee has drawn up
a list of specific problem areas
in the community which might
warrant an educational type of
program, but found the most distinct need to be “the bringing
together of community leaders
from government and community
agencies, along with college personnel, on a somewhat regular
basis to focus attention on community problems, to discuss problem areas with faculty resource
specialists, to identify areas for
needed fact-finding through research, to plan educational programs in order to gain certain
ends and to recommend solutions
to problems wherever feasible.”
This need has led to the incorporation into the first phase of
the program a series of dialogue
seminars on community problems.

The series will be initiated with
two conferences to be held this
year.

Said Dr. Berner, “The absence
of such a forum at present has
limited the attempts of individuals and of independent groups in
their attacks upon the problems
of the urban community.”

The first conference will be
entitled “The Impact of Social
Factors on the Expanding Niagara Frontier” and will deal with
the lack of coordination between

Records process to see if it might
be speeded up.

Dr. Lorenzetti explained that

many of the complaints that come
to his office are valid and that
the office is undergoing a reorganization to meet

increased demands for financial aid from students. “The growth of the financial aid office has been tremendous over the past few years. It
has become a strong and integral
part of the student’s life. We are
adding more services and hope
to provide belter service. Like
the rest of the University, we arc
suffering growing pains.”
Approximately 90% of the student body is dependent fully or

in part for financial aid either
from NY State scholarships or

Memorandum VI
Meeting of July 29, 1966

Present were seven members
and a temporary recording secretary provided by one of the
members.

The first item of business was
the summer budget. The cochairmen reported that they had
submitted a request for funds to
the Faculty-Student Association.
The Task Force decided to withdraw the application since the
Task Force is an all University
committee and the FSA derives
its monies from student assessments. The committee therefore
Headed'to expend minimal but
necessary funds for operating

expenses.

The Institute is entitled, “Adult
Basic Education Teacher Training
Institute." The purpose, Dr. Minnich said, is to prepare the teacher trainees who will be responsible for training the teachers
who will, in turn, then teach
undereducated adults.
The participants will spend 40
hours a week in the classroom,
on field trips, and in special evening meetings. Of the 32 New
York State participants 11 teachers have been selected from the
Buffalo area.

One of the objectives of this
first conference, as stated in the
prcposal submitted to the federal
government, is “to bring together
social scientists and physical planners and thus to encourage consideration of human as well as
architectural aspects in renewal

or housing projects.”

The conference will also promote participation of indigenous
leaders in the planning effort.

during the 1966-67 academic year.
It is proposed to recruit and select about 30 worker-leaders at

least 50% of whom will be indigenous to the low income, minority group areas, and the balance of whom will be volunteer
workers. The program is designed
to provide these non-professional
leaders with new skills and attitudes and thereby improve their
capacity to serve as supervisors

and/or program evaluators.
Professional staff from the participating schools will be assigned areas of specialized training

The second conference will be
projection of “The Niagara

ideas of community leaders and
university personnel in drawing
up a hypothetical blueprint of
a modern Niagara Frontier megolopolis of the next century. By

training, and Canisius, D’Youville
and Rosary Hill may provide
courses oriented toward the social
and behavioral sciences.

program leaders hope to be able
to isolate short-range objectives
for immediate action.

“All the institutions expressed
interest and concern about the
problems inherent in urban renewal and development, as well
as problems related to geriatrics,
housing and integration,” Dr.
Berner said.

A Review: 'Top Hat' and 'Pavane for Minstrel'
(reviewed by J. A. LaRue)
Top Hat and Pavana for a Dead-

Pan Minstrel demonstrate the
considerable brilliance of Paul
both as author
C
and director. These one-act plays
were presented in Baird Hall last
weekend and will be repeated
this weekend.
One-act plays are, to my mind,
frequently disappointing;* they
are often too sketchy, too quaint,
while lacking substance. The
genre is, in fact, something akin
to a Chinese meal—tasty enough,

but it leaves you ravenous about
an hour later. Carter-Harrison
happily transcends the limitations
of this genre and gives us something lasting as well as immedi-

ately satisfying.
Top Hat, the first of the two
plays presented, represents something of an archetypal situation
along the lines of woman versus
man. Top Hat, to put it most
blatantly, relates the sexual Odyssey of a middle-aged woman with
the help of a tramp, who supplies
the potency for a husband too
busy earning money to be entertaining. The woman, played competently but not with sufficient
lasciviousness by Bryna Weiss,
finds the tramp in a public park
where she customarily goes to
enjoy the primates. She deliberately seduces the tramp and then
plays with him like a Cheerio
champion bringing her yo-yo expertly around the world. Sexual
imagery and connotations are
throughout; indeed, they form,
in some sense, the very substance
of the play. However, they are
not handled clumsily, as is frequently the case on the American
stage, but with a certain deft

grace which translates the work
into one long sensual dance.
Some members of the audience
did become a bit huffy at times
(perhaps when their own particular neuroses were rubbed the
wrong way). Be that as it may,
one can hardly become incensed
at the overt sexuality of the production when the woman’s defense of her hedonistic pursuit
of pleasure is presented so eloquently: “Why pervert the essential vibrations of one’s flesh?”
Why indeed? She admits that she
only practices temperance for future enjoyment (as do we all, I
suspect).

The tramp silently does his
is wont to have her little complaints while the wondrous journey is being made: “I hate to
complain, but are we getting
somewhere?” None the less, the
tramp perseveres time and again
and ably assists her to get over
the hump and reach the rich summit of her pleasure. But while
performing this (k)nightly task,
he naturally debilitates himself,
and we watch his tragic demise.
And what could be more tragic
than a coffee-grinding man on
his way out? The tramp brings
to mind Nelson Algren’s pathetic,
washed-out Dove Linkhorn. Joe

Sordetto did a masterful job in
the mime role of the tramp and
his mime song was beautifully
coordinated with the off-stage
sound. Rich LeCastre, as the
musician, overlooked a 11 these
goings-on and ably interpreted
the splendid musical score by
Bill Penn, who achieved a nearperfect synchronization of sound
with the text. The play betrayed
a certain Beckett-like emptiness
and even the silences gave the
impression of a carefully orchestrated syncopation, while effective mime helped to carry the
burden of the story line.
If Top Hat was a bit sensual for
the usual Baird Hall audience,
then Pavane for a Dead-Pan Minstrel was even more so. For this
play deals with the very manifest
hustling of a young lady by two
men, a white in black-face and
a black in white-face. For me this
play is by far the more disturbing of the two. A white and a
black play an elaborate game of
hide-and-seek with themselves
and with society. Carter-Harrison
makes much out of the ensuing
confusion and loss of identity.
Both at times forget their appropriate masks and begin to act in
a confused and contradictory
manner. But significantly enough
it is always the white-faced Mr.
Brown who condescendingly orders the black-faced Mr. Smith
to call the waiter. The immediacy
of the situation to contemporary
America could not be more apparent, and yet at the same time
a true universal meaning is to be
found, for those masks could be
anything: they are all the ploys
and hypocrisies which people
adopt to shield themselves from
the hostile world.
The point of this elaborate
game is to discover who, black
or white, will be able to make it
with the first available chick who
turns up. Thus we are down to
the nitty-gritty, the reason why
the white man is supposedly afraid of Black Power. Nevertheless
one wonders whether black-face
or white-face makes any difference, inasmuch as the two males
themselves agree (in a spoof of
the sexuality implied in so many
American commercials); “It’s
what’s up front that counts.”

Research Writers Bureau
To Peddle Student Papers
New York—A unique service
fof evaluating and marketing college research papers, called the
Research Writers’ Bureau Ltd.,
was established in the metropolitan area recently in response to
widespread demand amongst publishers for articles on academic
subjects. The firm is reported to
be the first organization of its
kind to concentrate its efforts
entirely on selling campus-written material.
According to

Richard

Fennelly,

director of the literary agency,
there are thousands upon thousands of periodicals, ranging

from

the

smallest

journals to

some of the largest “slick” maga-

zines, which need well-researched
student manuscripts. He reports
that some of these pay up to 10
cents per word for this material.
"Academic journals are usually
the first and too often the last
place students consider as an
outlet for their work,” Fennelly
says. “This is lamentable because
there are numerous semi-popular
magazines which pay decent
money for research writing. They
cover a wide field of interest,
including science religion, history, medicine and business.”

Christina Ramage is thrown pitilessly back and forth between

vice-versa.

moods of cynicism, sensuality,

their success is the frequency
with which the role-change between black and white becomes
confusing. Hayward Allen is also
good as the very personification
of a dumb Polack barkeep. Once
again the music of Bill Penn is
outstanding. As for the outcome,
I shall not be so unthinking as
to reveal the result of this brutal game.

These two one-act plays constitute one of the best theatrical
offerings of the year in Buffalo.
The author-director is in complete
technical control of his material
and actors: his use of language
is rich, highly salacious (to borrow from one of the author’s own
puns), and full of tantalizing ambiguities. Anyone who is interested in theater should see these
plays before this important talent
leaves campus..

Jazz Impressions
By RON NAPLES

The “in crowd” met again the
other night, but is wasn’t the
same. The new Ramsey Lewis
Trio made it’s first local appearance at Buffalo’s Melody Fair on
Sunday. July 24. The old trio,
featuring bassist El Dee Young
and drummer Red Holt, broke
up early in June. The new men
are Cleveland Eaton on Bass and
Maurice White on drums.
Thc_trio has done a good job
Sin keeping the" “new" Ramsey
Lewis sound considering they’ve
been playing together for only
a month. “The ’In Crowd’ ”, and
“Hang On Sloopy,” Lewis’ two
biggest commercial successes
sounded basically the same, perhaps because they featured only
Lewis on piano.

There was a marked absence in

the rhythm section on “Love
Theme From Spartacus.” “West
Side Story Medley,” and “The
Party’s Over.” as once again
only Lewis’ talent made up the
difference. In semi-fairness to the
new men. a group does not become cohesive in the amount of
time that they’ve been together,
but the old group had a sound
going for them that this group
will never come close to. The
old group played together for 14
years and the names Young and
Holt were automatically associat
ed with that of Lewis.
Virtually every

area of college

study has some representation

in

this type of periodical, according

to the linn’s director.
The new agency, which does
not return manuscripts unless
first queried with a description
of the paper, is located at 95-31
104 St., Ozone Park, New York.
WANTED

Female expert in trivia, local television station appearance, contact Henry Lawrence, 831-3405
or 834-0033.

In time. Eaton, a fine bassist
and White, a fast young drummer, will continue to give Lewis
solid support and not ruin his
new image. Lewis will not hurt
financially as a result of the
split (he will probably gain). But
he will never again reach the
artistic heights the old group
had reached. The new men lack
the versatility of the old, (Young
on cello, and Holt on tambourine
and wood-flute) and this naturally gives the group less freedom
of

expression.

But

then

again,

how much freedom do you need
on “Ain’t That Peculiar" and
"High-Heeled Sneakers.”
As an individual who has been
a Ramsey Lewis fan for many
years and one who hasn’t missed
a Buffalo performance of his
since 1960, Ineither like nor dislike the new commercial Ramsey
Lewis. I no longer look forward
to every new album or performance, but I will still buy his records and attend his shows simply
because the fine talent of Ramsey Lewis is still there.
As I stated a few weeks ago,
Ramsey obviously is looking for
a saleable item. He’s found it.
The results are more money, but
a loss of something possibly
greater than money. Ramsey replied very quietly when I stated
that I was very sorry to hear of
the break: “It’s just like a mar-

riage, when you break up your
friends always feel bad, but it's
one of those things,” he replied.
Jazz-singer Jon Hendricks echoed my sentiments by saying,
“It’s like seeing one of the foun-

dations of the earth crumble,
there probably will never be a
tighter group.” This is an indication of the respect jazz people
had for the group.
Ramsey Lewis plays for the
(people, this is obvious (and not
wrong) and he knows what type
to hear. The audience at Melody
was one that was 90% white
and predominantly young. Ramsey responded with a program of
popular favorites such as “They’ll
Never Be Another You,” “Satin
Doll,” "Shadow of Your Smile,”
"Wade In The Water,” “Song For
My Father," and "j Ain’t Got
Nobody." Only once did he attempt a "funky” blues theme on
"Salute to Ray Charles.” Missing
were such familiar blues pieces
as “C.C. Rider," “Lil Lira Jane,"
"Look-A-Here,” and "Somethin’
You Got.”
The crowd responded favorably, remained respectfully quiet
throughout most of the numbers,
and showed by their applause
that they thoroughly enjoyed the
114 hour performance. I applauded the still-evident genius and
talent of Ramsey Lewis and the

Fair

efforts of Eaton and White, but
it just wasn’t the same.

The Problem of Fines
TO THE EDITOR:

A few months ago I was charged with something around $200
in parking fines. In the process
of obtaining a petition form, I
came upon a secretary in the
office of the bursar engrossed in
typing out bills for parking tickets alone. I believe this was her

only job. A campus policeman
came in with a batch of at least
twenty tickets (this was only midday) and, I swear, he remarked
with a smile something &lt;of the
kind that business was good. It
was toward the end of the semester so the student court was no
longer in session. I was told by
the secretary that my petition to

have my fines waived would be
given to a summer parking com-

mittee to be reviewed. Did she
know who was on the committee?
Well, some members of the administration. Did she know or
could anyone in the office tell
me approximately how much
money was brought in each year
from parking tickets? No. Did she
know where the money went? No.
Could she find out from someone
else in the office? No. Did she
feel that her life expectancy was
in any way reduced by being in
that office; No.

al justifications, followed by an
offer to discuss the matter in
more detail. A few days ago I
received a form (over a month
later) with a check mark next to

the word “denied”. Next to it
the word “granted” was checked
followed by $20, indicating that
they were giving back $20. Well,
being a thoroughly indoctrinated
U.B. student, a few days time
was almost enough to dull my
pain and allow the poison of
apathy to take its course. (I may
still). It was with some effort
that I decided to follow up this
decision and find out just who
the hell made it. Well, I did.
Get this. It was not made by
a “parking committee”, that is,
unless one man can be called a
committee, which I’m sure our
administrators think. The decision was made by the chief of
security, Murray; just the unbiased rfeview board a U.B. student could hope for and expect.
I will thank him for initialing
the document. The end, however,
isn’t yet. I can appeal this to
somebody in the fall, no doubt
ad infinitum. Well, I would just
like to draw a few observations
from this tale of misery.
I have

Well, being in a relatively stable mood, I decided to direct my
frustration into the composition
of a petition that would stir the
consciences of the most callousbuttocked, university-oriented administrators. However, in its finished form my petition was not
the ass-kissing oratory a middleclass boy would be expected to
produce to get his old man's
money back from some real authorities. Nor was it venomous
and full of vindiction and vulgarities. It was instead an admission
of my crime against the school
administration and an honest explanation of it with fairly ration-

learned that at least

some administration policies and

decisions can be traced back to
individuals (or individual, I
should say). They are not drawn
from out of ether nor are they
just based on precedent. An administrator, I think, does have a
mind; he knows many rules but
not all of them; he knows numerous rules that are in contradiction to one another. There
just has to be a certain amount
of selectivity in his decision.
Precedent does not account for
parking fines because when U.B,
was founded there were no cars,
so someone changes a rule
through personal initiative. I’m

trying to show that this shit about
precedent is just that. In short,
someone makes a decision so it
would seem someone is responsible. But, of course, we know that
that’s not how our administration
operates. Oh, maybe they’ll admit
responsibility, but see how many
offices you go through trying to
get an admittedly lousy decision
changed. A student is responsible
for his actions and if he gets out
of line he’s very liable to get his
ass tacked. An administrator
makes a shitty decision but until
enough people are burned, which
may be never, no sanctions are
levied against him . . . because
you either don’t find him or he’s
supported by other administrators. Are you with it?

The administrators, who sup-

posedly have the student needs
in mind, end up telling the stu-

dent what his needs are instead
of serving the student. My crime’s
punishment can be justified by
showing that if enough students
disobeyed, parking would be nearly an impossible situation. Well,
it could just be that the campus
cops make parking seem mere
of a problem than it is. I would
like to know how much and
where the money collected from
fines goes and the salaries of all
the people involved who help impose the fines. No doubt the university isn’t dumb enough to
make this a losing proposition
of keeping the kids in line for
their own good. And you know
damn well that this student body
served so well by the administration doesn't see half of the money
collected in its behalf.

Handel Concerto Cycle
Continues This Sunday
The second and third concerts
in the Handel Concerto Grosso
Cycle of the Buffalo Symphonette
will be performed in the Mary
Seaton Room of Kleinhans Music
Hall on Sunday, Aug. 7, at 2:30.
The Symphonette will play, in
addition to Handel, music of the
contemporary American, Alan
Hovhaness, and compositions of
Gabriel F a u r e, John Stanley,
Tommaso Albinoni, and Maurice
Ravel.
The next concert in the series
will be in the Albright-Knox Art
Gallery on Sunday, Aug. 21, at
4:00 p.m. Fred Ressel will conduct, and principal instrumentalists of the Buffalo Philharmonic
Orchestra will appear as soloists.

Tickets for the August 7 concert are available at Denton, Cot-

tier and Daniels and at Norton
Hall (U.B.), price $2.50, and $1.00
for students. The August 21 concert at the Gallery is free, sponsored by the Art Gallery and
the recording fund of the American Federation of Musicians.
The Buffalo Symphonette, with
Fred Bessel as founder and conductor, is in its 19th season and
is looking forward to the time
when Western New York has its
own complete summer festival of
the arts. Its offerings of the
complete cycle of Handel Concert! Grossi is attracting much
attention as a demonstration of
our musical resources and the
popular support they command.

I’m tired of meeting the administrators on their own ground,
playing acording to their rules,
but I find I have little ground
of my own because they have
the power to control so much of
my existence.
I think the problem of fines
is most crucial because it is one
of the few areas in student life
where the administration can
daily impose its power without

challenge.
I would like to hear from other
students on the issue of fines,
possibly a potent lobby could be
formed.

WHAT IS A CRITIC

.

By Marty

?

Since my last review appeared on “Page
teft,” I have been asked by many people
what qualifies one to be a movie reviewer.
I thought for a while and then decided on
this answer. Nothing! Well, O.K., you need
some experience in theater, drama, directing,
acting and English and a desire to write, but
other than that, anyone can be a reviewer
(and usually everyone is). The reviewer must
create a following and this is done if his
values in film or art are the same or closely
related to one’s own belief. One may then
use his beliefs as a yardstick id deciding
what films to see. The second “use” of a
reviewer is to be a “conversation piece on
paper.” By this I mean someone to compare
your own views of a film with and in this
mental discussion hope to obtain a better
knowledge of the film, one’s own values,
and to decide again if the critic’s ideas and
yours correspond. I prefer the second choice.
It’s more exciting and stimulating. The reason that I bring all this up is because I would
like to discuss a film that has already closed.
I cannot sell it anymore, but maybe you
would like to compare notes.
The film is by Mekas and was included
in the Circle Art Underground Film Festival.
“Hallelujah, the Hills,” was one of the ten
best films I have ever seen. On occasion I
come out of a cinema saying: “Oh, man, if
that were my film, I would never make another it’s too good to try to top!” I said
this when seeing “The Gospel According to
Saint Matthew” and not again for 3 months
until I saw H.T.H.
-

I disagree with the assistant manager of
the Circle Art who said that it was light and
funny. Two adjectives like that could only
partially cover this masterpiece. The film
tells the story of two young men who at one
time loved the same girl. Each saw her differently, and through a series of flashbacks
this is transmitted. However, this is only the
start of what Mekas is trying to say, as we
view a trip of the imagination of the two
young heroes. (I am sorry that names were
not available in advertising material). The
understanding of two people, especially two
males, who have the acquaintance of the
‘same’ girl is a gateway or pass to freedom
of mind, spirit, body, and the key to life.
In a relationship with women, as revealed
in the film, one is constantly putting on a
mask, and seeing life as a camera. One
watches oneself and says “if this is love this
is how I will act,” and in acting in this fashion one will enjoy life. This is the ultimate
middle-class idea of love, laughing and jumping in the hills, hallelujah! It’s great if it
could happen without the participants “thinking” it, to let go in an experience so completely that you are not aware of it until
it is over. Because of my own views and experiences, I find that this total involvement
can be achieved much more readily with a
person of the same sex. I think Mekas agrees.
In the film, when the gentlemen thought
of the girl, they imagined a situation with
themselves being totally free and the girl
following along. But as hard as she tried she
could never really join them because of the
demands placed on her by society and never
being able to let go (mentally and sexually)!
In the film, as is so often true in life, the
blame is placed on the parents, and the fact
that they would be disappointed if she fell
in love with a nut (and what real person
except for a night manager of Norton isn’t?)

H.T.H. traces the trip of the two boys
in their adventures with many toys, camping,
shooting, and women. We place in our mind
the ideal woman and how life would be after
one “knows” her, but it can never come true,

Sadoff

people, because all mates are, horrible as it
it to say, human type people.
We put women into a mental film, each
one having a different role, and the great
thing about them is that they are supplied
to us in such huge numbers as if from trees,
and the original sin is not with them but in
the scripts of our own films.

“Hallelujah, the Hills” may sound to
those who have not seen it like a bore. But
it was the most beautiful, wholly enjoyable
and fast paced film I have ever seen. The
photography of the film was excellent, winter was never so beautiful anywhere. The
cutting was original and exciting and employed many gimmicks, but unlike Godard
they were all necessary to the film. Boxes
within the frame single out the action without forcing the camera in for a typical close
up. The camera was completely mobile and
helped bring the audience into the, film.
All who know realize that my favorite

type of film is the silent flick, and my fav-

TO THE EDITOR:
“Oh dear what can the matter

for our illustrious university. One
can expect that a similar attitude
will prevai) regarding the style
of the new campus. The best we
can hope for on the rolling
plains of Amherst is Bureaucratic
Modern, such as Harpur College,
or a smattering of “neo-shoe box"
like Norton Union.
Yes, progress is the watch word
of the State University of New
York at Buffalo. Perhaps the Task
Farce (intentional) might make a
recommendation, in good taste of
course, and with respectful language. for permission to recommend respectfully the size of the
wash rooms at the new campus.
It would only be a polite request
and thus would not be tampering
with the managerial prerogatives
of Albany, President Furnas, or

Dr. Rowland.

contributing to the story line.

The acting was super—all this adds to
a super slice of celluloid. Little treasures to
those who know film. Example—boy comes
out of snow into cabin, says, “It’s not a fit
night out for man or beast” and, you guessed
it, W.C. Fields is hit with a bunch of snow.
There is a scene that resembles a rescue by
D.W. Griffith which maybe like three people
in the place recognized. So what does Mekas
do? He insults his unknowing audience by
showing them the actual piece of film that
he was imitating. The picture was in the
true tradition of Chaplin—everything they
expect on two levels—and something more.

the (Editor

The Task Force has been referred to as a farce because that
is exactly what it is. Neither the
local administration nor the raonarchs in Albany have shown any
inclination to take into consultation the students or faculty on
major decisions. Perhaps the reasons for this are more complicated
than we suspected last spring. On
the issue of the draft examina-

tion the local administrators simply demonstrated a desire to dictate to us the conditions under
which we were to receive our
“education”. This is a simple
enough, though immature, ideology of how a university should be-,
run. But the issue of the location
of the new campus appears to be
more ominous. The total lack of
open discussion on location, frohi
the beginning: the rapidity of
deciding where the campus would
be, one meeting of the Board of
Trustees: the apparent lack of
careful study: and the attempt
by Dr. Gould to crush discussion
now that it has begun, implies
sinister motives on the part of
some of those defending the Amherst site. Dr. Gould may well
be "clean", as indeed all indications lead one to believe, but it
would appear that other interests
in Albany and locally are not so.
Libel Laws prohibit the naming
of names in this game of Educational Monopoly without proof,
as they should. But this writer
has heard enough double talk
surrounding the new campus to
come to the conclusion that: Yes,
Susie, something is rotten in the
Buffalo area, and perhaps Albany
also. Surely open discussion on
possible sites at this time would
hurt none but those who have
financial interests in where the
new campus is to be located. It
will take study to explore the
real reasons behind the pressure
to cut off discussion, and study
there will be. But in the meantime, let all of us be careful
about how we receive statements
about Amherst. And to Dr. Gould,
with all due respect: to a number
of members of this academic community the issue of where the
new campus will be is not a
closed one.

debate on the issue: “I hope that this statement will put
an end to any further speculation which can only do a disservice to the University, to the people of Amherst whc
have made us feel welcome and to the thousands of students from Western New York and all over the State who
need these educational facilities.” This sounds more like
a corporation executive than an educator. What is the purpose of cutting off debate on the issue? What is a university if it is not a place where inquiry and debate are protected and encouraged? And who is Gould trying to con
with his nonsense about “the people of Amherst who have
made us feel welcome.” The Amherst Town Board has
balked for two years because the location of the new campus in the town means the loss of taxable land. The Board
has also raised objections to rezoning for the interim campus
and has thus set back construction for at least a year. And
if Gould is so concerned about the needs of students for
educational facilities, why hasn’t he personally intervened
to get construction of the campus going before the spring
of 1968? An even larger question looms regarding Gould’s
concern for students: why haven’t the students been in on
the planning from the beginning?
(Cont'd

What is Gould attempting to do? There are a number of
possibilities:
1) The opposition to the Amherst campus has grown

considerably in the past few weeks. Just this week, Dr.
Raymond Ewell, Vice President for Research, called for a
reevaluation of the site issue. Another group comprised of
faculty, student, and civic leaders, has been quietly working
to have the campus located in the downtown waterfront
area. The movement could snowball. Gould may be attempting to feel out the opposition to ascertain how strong it is.
2) Gould could be attempting to hamstring Martin Myerson, the incoming president of this campus. Myerson, with
a background in urban planning, might be inclined to back
the downtown area over the Amherst site. Gould’s statement
would place Myerson in the difficult position of having to
oppose his administrative superior.
3) Gould may have cleared the statement with Myerson.
The whole issue would then become political.
President Gould’s ex cathedra statement may have seriously impaired the relationship between this campus and
the State University system. What could have been a rational
debate on an issue of immense importance to faculty and
students alike, has become grist for the political mill.
The students, and hopefully the faculty, will fight to
have the site issue reopened for debate. Too much remains
to be asked and answered to go anead with the Amherst
plans. If this University can continue to consider itself a
democratic institution, it can do no other than to insist that
this issue, which affect the lives of most of us, be reopened.
The Spectrum wishes to go on record in favor of a reevaluation of the location for the new campus and favors the
downtown waterfront site. Next week The Spectrum will
present a position paper to that effect.

By JOHN MEDWID

The stage is being set for the
destruction of North Viet-Nam.
Johnson and his advisors expect
that the destruction of Hanoi will
end the war. Moral questions aside, there is little reason to
believe that the bombing of
Hanoi will have any of the results that the Johnson planners
hope for. Bombing is not likely
to weaken the morale of the
populace any more than the German bombings were able to weaken the morale of the Londoners
who suffered them. In fact, the
bombings will solidify public
opinion and strengthen the morale of the North Viet-Namese.
As Ben Franklin cannily put it,
“We must all hang together or
surely we shall all hang separately.”

enough about big-time politics to
be quite innocuous in office. Then
there’s F.p.R. Jr., who is basing
his campaign on one big issue,

longer, has his men scattered

chance than any of his opponents (who said this isn’t a monarchy?) Thirdly, there’s Frank

to turn the tide of downstate
favoritism. And finally there’s

THE PEOPLE
One of the most current and
important topics on campuses
across the country is the issue
of academic freedom. Closely

tied in with this issue have been
the so-called Free Speech Move?
ments, the teach-ins, and our own
University Movement. It would
be pertinent therefore to have a
look at the state of academic
freedom on U.S. campuses and
to examine closely the Movement’s stated motives.
I am both proud of and amazed
at the amount of academic freedom on American campuses. At a
time when over a quarter of a
million American soldiers are
committed to a war, American
professors can state freely that
they support the other side, without fear of a midnight visit by
the KGB followed by a “peoples”
trial, much less lose their jobs.
The Genovese case in New Jersey
amply proves this.
It is amazing that at a time
when the United States is involved in a war which has grown
till its magnitude affects in one
way or another the destinies of
most of its citizens, these same
citizens who may be called upon
to fight, steadfastly protect the
rights of anti-war groups to hold
teach-ins, demonstrate, and freely
distribute their literature.
To resolutely protect the rights
of unpopular views to be heard
is admirable enough in peacetime, but in a time of conflict
it is indeed a feat Americans can
be proud of. It is indicative of
the high level of academic freedom and democracy that the
United Sattes has achieved and
should serve as a model for all

stop the war if he wanted to.
It would give Ho Chi Minh no
reason not to send his 400,000
man army south to confront
American and South Vietnamese
forces on the battlefield. This
would require an increase in
America’s commitment of men to
2.5 million soldiers. With 400,000
fresh North Vietnamese troops
ready to come into action it isn’t
likely that the end of the war
would be nearer.
The real reason for the bombing of Hanoi is not military but
political. Bombing Hanoi, it is
said, strengthens the morale of
Premier Ky, the current dictator
in Saigon, and weakens criticism
from the hawks here at home.
Johnson wants to wear two political masks: the friend of peace
and the man who is not afraid
to fight. Most important, however, he wants to be elected
again. It is unfortunate that people have to die so that Lyndon
Baines Johnson can be re-elected.

The
from their very conception were
never interested in free-speeeh.

Their leaders had all the free
speech they could use. However
finding out that their bankrupt
ideas were making no headway
they resorted to shows of force
designed to gain them the authority they could not win freely
or democratically.
The Movement at UB used the
issue of campus democracy as a
subterfuge for their leaders’ antiViet Nam views. Cowering under
the guise of conscientious objectors to what they feel is an undemocratic University, they pretended to be fighting for campus reform when in reality they
were attacking the war in Viet
Nam (our half of it anyway) and
the Selective Service System.
They presented their demands
to President Furnas coupled with
the threat that if they were not

the campus. Our own beloved

a genuine conscientious objector

The Movements’ leaders claimed however that they did not
have to respect any campus rules
because their consciences told
them that they were fighting for
high moral reasons. It is commendable to recognize that morality and law are not always the
same and that when they come
into conflict that morality must
take precedence, however the
Movements’ leaders failed to recognize the centrality of intelligence to morality. They neglected
the fact that conscience by itself is not the criterion of morality, this is the work of reason.
It is apparent therefore that
the Movement was not interested
in campus democracy nor a student voice in the Administration,
but was merely using them as
slogans to mask their attack on
the Selective Service System and
the United States involvement in
Viet Nam.

There are even unconfirmed

It may prove fruitful then some-

Foreign Policy Council’s
Vietnam Survey Results
To implement the Buffalo
Council for Citizen Responsibility
on Foreign Policy’s decision to
make a study of voter attitudes,
groups of canvassers have recently gone from door to door in
the 39th Congressional District,
ascertaining opinion on the Vietnam War (see below) and distributing some literature. Twentyfive members have participated
on four evenings during June,
with an average of twelve canvassers in the field at any one time.
The areas so far covered include
two essentially working-class and
two middle to upper middle class
districts in Cheektowaga and Amherst. Most people contacted (at
least 3 out of 4) agree to complete the questionnaire. The results have been surprisingly consistent from district to district
and from week to week. 258 com
pleted surveys are on hand, showing the following distribution of
opinion:
Would you vote for candidates
who are for these policies?

the “reform” and “peace” candidates in the New York primary
elections is also an indication of
an increasing opposition to the
war. In the 17th Congressional
District, Jerome Wilson defeated
official candidate and war sup
porter Peter Berle for the nomination. Rep. Multer only narrowly escaped defeat by peace candidate Mel Dubin (13th C.D.) and
the renomination, by less than
200 votes out of 35,000 cast, of
Rep. Farbstein is being challenged by Theodore Weiss (19th C.D.).
By and large, the New York results indicate an even stronger
sentiment for peace than the
previous results in California
(45% for Scheer in the 7th C.D.
in Oakland and Berkeley, and
over 40% for Hannon in the 20th
C.D. in Los Angeles).
Unfortunately, there are no
candidates at the present time in
the 39th, 40th, and 41st Congressional Districts who explicitly

Yes

Stop bombing North Vietnam? .
Immediate cease fire in Vietnam?
Immediate negotiations?
Negotiate with the National
Liberation Front (VietCong)?
Free elections including
all parties?
Withdrawal of all foreign troops?
(Bring Our Boys Home)

Many of those who voted ‘no’
on questions 1, 2, and 6 also
voted ‘yes’ on questions 3, 4, and
5. Personal canvassing experience
suggest that many of these people
think that bombing and other
strategic warfare devices would
‘bring our boys home’ sooner.
That 40% do answer ‘yes’ to
question 6 also indicates this to

be part of the “grass roots” feeling.

The strong vote for immediate

negotiations (question 3) almost
certainly represents a desire to
de-escalate, and the 62% vote to
include the Viet Cong is a direct
repudiation of the Administration’s position on this point. The
74% vote for elections with Communist participation may also be
contrasted with Ky’s insistence
on excluding both Communists

and neutralists from such elections.
These provisional results resemble in many ways the responses to National Surveys, and suggest that, despite possible individual biases, the methods used
by the Council are rather reliable. The most recent opinion poll
(published in the Buffalo Evening
News) indicated slightly less than
50% in favor of continuing the
war, and some 38% for withdrawal. The strong showing made by

favor peace in Vietnam. Nevertheless, when the candidate of
the Conservative and Republican
Parties for the 39th C.D., John
Pillion, is moved to remark upon
“an underlying uncertainty concerning the bogdown of both our
peace and war efforts in Vietnam” (Buffalo Evening News,
6/29/66), it shows that the war
will be an election issue. Congressman Richard McCarthy was
the only representative from upstate New York to sign the letter to President Johnson in December, 1965, advocating de-escalation and a prdlonged bombing pause. He has recently supported more liberal policy
towards mainland China. We hope
to use the present canvass and
survey to strengthen the candidates’ judgment concerning the
desire for peace in their constituency, to influence one or both to
take a more outspokenly critical
attitude to the war, and, whatever the final position they may
take, to inject the Vietnam War
as a living issue into the coming
campaign.

Anarchism and The Student Movement'
By JOSEPH CHARLES BURGESS

Few of us would question the
assertion that there are large
numbers of students in institutions of higher learning throughout the country who are dissatisfied with the present university
system. Many of us have witnessed various attempts on the
part of student groups to bring
about changes in the way universities are operated. While
there can be little doubt that
there are a number of “student
movements” afoot, it could be a
mistake to say that these “movements” are part of an organized
general movement whose purpose is to give to students the
power to run the university. On
some campuses students have organized to bring about radical
changes in university administrative procedures. And they have
organized with the idea of changing the whole concept of the university and its place in the sociopolitical world. This is but one
dimension of what has been
called the “student movement.”
There are other dimensions. On
some campuses students are concerned only with more specific
problems. At one school students
want the right to sell beer; on
others they are agitating for extension of dormitory curfews. Almost all schools of any size have
groups actively engaged in civil
rights work, in anto-war and antidraft programs, or in aiding the
anti-poverty program.
On still
other campuses students are almost wholly concerned with obtaining freedom of speech. All
these things have been labeled
as part of a general student
movement by the press, by University administrators, and by
the public at large. Yet, as I
have said, it is not clear that
there is any general student
movement as such.
To assume that there is at this
time a national movement, the
goal of which is the total destruction of the university system
as we know it, is to be quite
naive. Each university campus
has its own specific problems;
each activist group its own specific goals. These specific goals and
the solutions to these specific

impossible, for we are being
hampered by the present university system.
To call for the complete eradication of the present university
system is certainly to adopt an
anarchist position. Perhaps, even
in calling for such basic changes
in the present system as would
make the resultant unrecognizably dissimilar to the present
system, we are anarchists. It is
important to note that the socalled student movement has
been labelled by certain astute

members of the press and present university administrators as
anarchistic. These people have

ther the cause of the student

movement.
I suggested above that the word
“anarchist” was ambiguous. This

becomes evident when one considers two of the most common
ways in which the anarchists are
characterized. Often an anarchist
is viewed as a “wild-eyed, bushyhaired, bomb-thrower.” On the
other hand, he is sometimes seen
as a non-activist. Although both
of these views are misconceptions
there is some historical basis for
them. Many of the European philosophic anarchists, people such
as Bakunin and Schmidt, argued
for a violent overthrow of the

*

What has been noted above is
that while the general anarchist
position is one which sees the
present socio-political system as
undesirable, the means by which
it is to be eradicated are various.
Those who held to a non-activist
position, I think, were mistaken,
since it implies a hard-core determination which ignores all
value of human action. In fact,
we do seem to be able to change
things, even if it is difficult at
times to do so. We do see that
our words and actions affect the
behavior of others, especially
when we organize with those
whose beliefs are similar to ours.
But here the anarchist cautions
us to beware that our own organization, however desirable it may
be in overthrowing the established order, does not become
itself coercive. In place of a
socio-political system the anarchist proposes that we establish voluntary associations, the members
of which are free to come and go
as they choose. Such associations
could take definite courses of action, but no one would be forced
to follow. All this, of course, implies that man is essentially both
good and rational, and that he
can decide on the basis of experience and insight what is best,
not necessarily prudent, to do.
Further, it implies that one can
convince others of the rightness
of his position through rational
discourse. These latter implications are of particular importance to the student movement,
for the university has traditionally considered itself, if it has
not actually been, an intellectual
community composed of those
who believed in the positive value of rational discourse.

If this is the general anarchist
position, what then does the an-

archist have to say to those who

which are just as repressive, if
not more so, for purges often

follow revolutions. And purges
bring about new revolutions. So
the revolutionary process seems
endless. The goal must be, according to the anarchist, a university in which the free exploration of ideas is most significant,
and this sinever possible if one
only replaces one restrictive repressive power structure with
another.
The importance of the anarchist’s argument that the university
be a voluntary association for
the exploration of new and old
ideas is that it rests on the
grounds that we have, not only
as scholars, but as human beings,
something to share; that we have
common experiences. Without
shared experiences there could
be no voluntary association; there
could be no association apart
from one which was coerced. This
concept has important implications, for it implies that we draw
no boundaries, neither administrative nor conceptual, in our investigations. It implies that we
not close our minds, that we
continue to search and look for
new ideas to replace old and
that we re-evaluate old ideas in
light of new evidence. What is
suggested is that to gain knowledge is more htan to classify bits
of information. It suggests that
our classification system may be
faulty and in need of revision or
replacement, or perhaps in need
of expansion. What must be done
will become apparent in the light
of rational discourse. Yet, what
must be done now, need not always be what must be done. Indeed, this cannot be the case if
we realize that our conceptual
boundaries are but guidelines at
best.

Finally, let me suggest some
modes of action that the anarchist might think useful in eliminating the present repressive university power structure and in
replacing it with a free university as described above. Above
all, I think, that the anarchist
would insist that whatever action
be taken, it be taken collectively.
To individually withdraw from
the present university system
would allow the possibility of
each of us setting up our own
conceptual boundaries such that
there would be no furtherance of
knowledge, only stagnation. To
individually “use” the present
system would be to exploit each
other, and would only further
coerce others to follow in the
same path. In this case, individual gain becomes more important than the furtherance of
knowledge in its broadest sense
which involves a sharing of
ideas. It is only through a sharing of ideas and experiences
through rational discourse that
we can prevent the drawing of
dogmatic conceptual boundaries.

What then can we do? If we
believe in the concept of a free
university

we can organize our-

selves and refuse to recognize
the power of those whose posi
tions depend upon the inherent
distrust and disrespect to be
found in the present system. In
short, we can refuse the right
of the university administration

to act as our representative in
thq larger socio-political system
We can refuse appointments and
recognitions which are so generously handed down to us by those
who have no interest in furthering knowledge. We can refuse to

work for them, and instead work
for the furtherance of knowledge.
In short, we can use any means
necessary, as long as those means
do not subvert our goal of a free

university.

Campus Planning Committee to Discuss
Student Participation in Site Decision
A new campus group, the Campus Planning Committee, will
hold its first meeting on Monday
evening, August 15, at 8 p.m. in
the Conference Theatre to discuss student participation in the
planning and development of the
new SUNY campus.

The group will work with an
existing organization, Committee
for an Urban Campus, by placing
one student representative on the
Committee’s executive board. An-

other member of the executive
board, Mr. Robert Coles, a local
architect and city planner, will

M. Sgt. Giambrone

address the Monday night meeting. He will explain what actions
his Committee has already taken
and will answer questions about

campus planning.
Following Mr. Cole’s portion of

the program, the Campus Planning Committee will propose that
the meeting establish some form
of organization to include the for-

mation of various interrelated
subcommittees on student participation in planning and develop-

ment.
According to a CPC spokesman,
“the primary purpose of the
group is

to get students involved

in a reconsideration of the Amherst site with the possibility of
locating the new campus on the
downtown waterfront area as part
of an urban redevelopment program. Whether the campus finally locates in Amherst or Buffalo,
the Campus Planning Committee
feels that students and faculty
should take an active part in the
planning and development of the
new campus.”

The meeting will be open to
the public. All interested students and faculty members are
especially urged to attend.

.

On Monday, August 15, at 9:30
a.m. in Part 1 of City Court, Detective Sergeant Samuel Giambrone will appear in answer to a
subpoena signed by Judge Mazur
on a charge of third degree assault. The charge was initiated
by William Sander, a graduate
student here and summer employee of the Erie County Department
of Social Welfare. Charges of
disorderly conduct against Sander were dismissed last Monday
in the same court.

The case began at the end of
last Saturday’s Peace March. Mr.
Sander said that “throughout the
demonstration the police, with
the exception of Detective Giambrone, performed admirably and
protected the marchers from
hecklers representing neo-fascist
groups who had followed us shouting anti-semetic remarks.”
Sander continued, “I was standing just off the sidewalk, between
the sidewalk and a fence in front
of a private home on Busti Avenue on the grass. An individual
in a business suit came over and
ordered me ‘off the sidewalk.’ I
replied that I was not on the side-

walk but on the grass. He then
looked down, saw that I was indeed on the grass, and said, ‘get
off of the grass
that’s private
property.’ Having no alternative
I asked, ‘Where then do you want
me to stand?’ The reply was,
you refuse
‘Alright, wise guy
to move—you’re under arrest.’
Sander said that he had no way
of being sure that the “man in
the business suit” was an officer
of the law. He said that the arrest occurred soon after the same
officer was observed talking with
“a group of Fascists in a station
wagon who had shouted such slogans as ‘Kill the Jews’ and ‘To the
Ovens’ at the marchers.”

”

Sander said that he was pushed
and shoved, into the' police car.
In the process he received a severe head injury which later required emergency care at the
Buffalo General Hospital. Mr.
Sander has charged the arresting
officer, Giambrone, with third degree assault for the infliction of
this wound. He was reluctant to
talk about the incident when interviewed, feeling it “might prejudice the upcoming assault case.”
Sander added, “The police were
wrong to make allegations about
how I sustained this injury while
I was in jail, but I do not intend
to commit the same error in
judgment.”

While in the police car, Sander

.

.

said that one of the officers asked.
“If you don’t like it here, why
don’t you leave?” Another, according to Sander, said, “What’s
a graduate student in sociology
doing hanging around with all
these reds?”
Mr. Sander gave the following
picture of his booking at the
police department on the charge
of “sidewalk blocking”: “I was
booked. All my personal property was taken from me. Detectives
were copying all the information
from my wallet
I could see
my social security numthem
ber, my addresses, my local draft
board number, my insurance
agent’s name, etc. They even took
away my wedding ring and eyeglasses. I was not allowed any
telephone calls.”
Sander was locked up and was
initially refused medical attention for his head wound. He was
eventually released on $100.00
bail, posted in cash by a friend.
According to a lawyer contacted
by this reporter, the maximum
fine on a charge of “sidewalk
blocking” is $5.00.
Once released, Sander said, one
doctor refused to attend him because the injury was “inflicted by
the police.” He then received
treatment at the Buffalo General
...

...

A group calling itself the Creative Vandalism League staged a
plant-in last Tuesday evening in
the parking lot construction area
near the Main Street entrance to
the campus. Proclaiming that
"Trees are a Reality Kick," the
group planted a number of tree
saplings, each of which bore a
dedicatory label.
Among the labels, a Spectrum
reporter who was dispatched to
the scene by an anonymous tip,
found the following:
1.) The Mother Tree
"This
tree is planted in appreciation of
the billions of mothers who have
made the joy of life a possibility
for millions more regardless of
—

race, creed, or national origin.”
2.) The God Tree
“This tree
is planted in memory of the kindly old gentleman who first
thought of trees and men and
who would undoubtedly have
wished to be present at this planting.”

“This tree

been snuffed out by thoughtless

America may become as healthy

5. The Apple Pie Tree

7. Let Each Become All He Is
Capable of Being Tree
“This
tree is planted in the hope that
it will be able to become all it is
capable of being."
As of Wednesday morning, construction on the parking lots had
obliterated the trees. The campus
waits the reaction of the Creative
Vandalism League.

Interview with French Students
The Cold War, the war in Viet
Nam, and European unity were
among the topics discussed by a
group of French students in a
recent interview with the Spectrum.

“Three Frenchmen; four opinions,” was the way one of the
students summarized the discussion. In general ways, however,
they were in agreement: skeptical
of the Cold War, opposed to the
Viet Nam war, and eager for
European unity.

Hecklers Spice CNVA March
Last Saturday’s CNVA Hiroshima Day Peace Walk was described by members of the Committee as a “success.” 65 people

marched 14 miles in protest of
the war in Vietnam and the massive arms race. The only incident
of violence occurred when William Sander, a walker, was arrested by Dct. Sgt. Samuel Giambrone on a charge of “blocking
a sidewalk” and was thrown
forcefully against a police car,
injuring his head.

The Walk moved quickly
throughout the city, covering the

entire distance from the UB campus to the Peace Bridge in 4 Vi
hours. A statement addressed to
President Johnson was read at
the Bridge by David Gardiner,
Graduate Student in Sociology
and a member of the Committee.
When presentation of the statement to the Head American Cus-

toms Official, Charles Wilson, was
attempted, Mr. Wilson replied,

“I have orders not to accept this
statement.” The statement will be
mailed to Mr. Wilson, Pres. Johnson, Senators Javits and Kennedy,
and local congressmen.

Constant surveillance was provided by the Buffalo Subversive
Squad, the FBI, and the South
Park Fascist Club, under the direction of Mr. Robert Johnson.
Mr. Johnson, representative of
the Fascist Club, drove a station
wagon spiced with signs reading
“Onward Viet Terror Squad

the Walk all the more meaningful by yelling such choice phrases as “Jews! Jews! Show me a

One question concerned the recent statement in the press that
“De Gaulle is the first major
statesman to realize that the Cold
War is over.” Most of the students agreed with this analysis,
stating that Russia’s economic

progress had lessened its threat
to the West. “Nobody believes
Russia will try to expand into
Europe,” one explained.

Another added, “we have per-

haps 20 or 30 dangerous years”
before China arrives at a level
of prosperity sufficient to raise

it from “the first militant stage
of Communism.”
On Viet Nam, the students felt
the majority of French people
are against the war. The reasons
for this opposition are varied,
they agreed. While leftists would
oppose U.S. involvement as counter-revolutionary, the most frequent objection is that the war
seems a “useless and hopeless”
repetition of the French defeat
in Indochina in 1954.
One student who knows many

Union in my defense,” he added,
“and I intend to see this thing
through.”
A spokesman for the American
Civil Liberties Union said that,
to her knowledge, a charge of
assault against a police officer
was “unheard of in Buffalo.”
Mr. Manguso, Corporation Counsel for the City of Buffalo, concurred with that statement. Manguso said that such a case was
“not common, but extraordinary.”
He added, “the case has raised
bitterness among the members of
the police department. The event
in question occurred in the
course of the officer’s duty and
the city will provide legal aid
for Officer Giambrone.” Mr. Manguso commented that charges of
police assault are serious and
should be examined fully before
an officer is brought into court.

Asian long view of history. “They
are,” he added, “a different civilization but an accomplished civilization.”
Another student added that
many of the South Vietnamese
welcomed, at first, American involvement in fighting Communism, but now “all they want is
peace, peace at any cost.”

Asked to compare the difficulty
for the U.S. in possibly leaving
Viet Nam without decided victory with France’s problems in
leaving Algeria, the students
found some validity in this but
agreed, “the only comparison is
in the question of power and
prestige.”

The situation in Viet Nam, one

explained, is not that of retaining a colony but of “showing the
Communists that the guerrillas
cannot win.” All of them agreed,
however, that an American victory in Viet Nam would have no
effect on halting guerrilla movements throughout the world.

To the question whether world
public opinion is going against
the United States now, they answered unanimously, “yes”, finding only “the extreme right elements” in Europe in favor of the
war. One objected that this opposition had, so far, taken the
form of "sentiments but no actions” and

another added

that

European opinions were much influenced by the anti-war stand of

their newspapers.
Comments on President De
Gaulle were as diverse as the
controversy surrounding the
French President.

The students spoke of defects
in the French constitution and
were of the opinion that as a
strong personal leader with basically democratic tendencies, De
He felt that Judge Mazur had

hastily.”

Sander said that “my case is
important. In my experience as
a case worker for the Erie County
Department of Social Welfare, I
have come across a number of
cases where police have acted
improperly. This case may help
end such practices.”

Gaulle compensated for these
faults. But they agreed that another President with dictatorial
ambitions could take advantage
of the wide and loosely-defined
powers of the French Presidency.

Opinion was divided on whether De Gaulle is doing everything
in his power to achieve European
unity. Some of the students believed that De Gaulle’s nationalism has obstructed the growth
of a supranational Europe. AH
of them agreed that European
unity is a necessity. “It’s not a
question of balance,” (against the
U.S. and the U.S.S.R.) one said.
“It’s only a question of power. If
you want to survive in the mod-

ern world you must have some
power.”

“It will be much more in the
interest of the United States to
have a Europe with some
strength,” said one student. Several felt that an independent
French atomic deterrent has only
propaganda value for France, and
that only slightly, whereas a united European deterrent, independent of the U.S., would have some
credibility.

Economic benefits were seen as
equally or more important than
political strength as a reason for
European unity.
Students in France are much
more aware, involved, and sophisticated in politics than most of

their American counterparts, it

was agreed. The diversity of political parties and ideologies, and
the ease of traveling to neighboring countries, they said, make
political involvement more at
tractive to Europeans. They found
a considerable lack of political
diversity and a lack of tolerance

of dissident ideas in the United
States.

It was learned that Mr. Sander
has resigned from the Social Welfare Departemnt effective Friday,
August 12. The reasons for his
resignation were unavailable.
However, Deputy Welfare Commissioner William Hawthorne indicated that the publicity surrounding the case was harmful
to the department.

SPECTRUM

Notes on Urban Campus
Ed. Nota: Instead of a SPECTRUM
position paper on the advisability
of locating the new SUNY campus in the downtown Buffalo waterfront area, we feel it more appropriate at this time to present
a statement by the Committee for
an Urban Campus, an article by
SPECTRUM staff reporter, Michael D'Amico, and a letter by
Dr. Lyle Glazier. The SPECTRUM
hopes that the debate on the issue
of the campus location has not
closed, despite President Gould's
peremptory statement reprinted

in last week's issue.

The Committee for an Urban
Campus is a grassroots organization comprised of citizens from
academic, business, medical, religious, and political communities
of the area which seeks to have
the new campus located in the
downtown area. Parts of a statement the Committee has already
sent to Martin Myerson, presidentdesignate of this campus and Dr.
Samuel Gould, President of the
SUNY, are reprinted here. This

is the first time this statement
has appeared in public in any
form. The article by Michael
D’Amico is based on both independent research and study of the
original Vincent Moore site analysis and the statement of the
Committee for an Urban Campus.
Dr. Glazier, Professor of English

Statement of
Committee for

Urban Campus
Introduction
A university, like any organization, is specialized and responsible for the performance of definable social functions. In the large
societal scheme of things, these
functions may be broad and basic,
but they are nonetheless limited.
Put simply, no organization—not
even a university—can be all
things to all men. And the more
vital an organization’s primary
societal functions, the more unfortunate are likely to be the
consequences of its trying to be.

A university exists as a means
for acquiring, codifying, storing
and disseminating knowledge. In
a university, unlike a school or
college perhaps, research and instructional functions are essentially co-equal. In fact, the scholarly function is definitive. It follows from this characterization
that a university, in its nature, is
universal rather than particular
in respect to the community it
serves. Its needs, interests and
objectives are neither common
with nor tied to those of its immediate host environs, except in
the most general sense. In short,
universities are “cosmopolitan”
rather than “local” in their perspectives. To be sure, they and
their host communities may derive direct mutual benefit, but
those benefits are primarily derivative, fortuitous and secondary.
None of these remarks is intended to preclude university derived or related community service. Indeed, in the modern era
universities have tended actively
to associate themselves with
“worldly” enterprises. The ivory
tower has acquired a revolving
door. However, a priority of purpose must be set so that the
postures and attitudes of university people may be understood
and so that the partial disjunction of community and university
perspectives may be appreciated.
If it be granted that these com-

site. The Universities of Minnesota and Ohio State have added
proof to the feasibility of such
a project. Buffalo has the potential to offer considerably more
than any of these. In light of
these facts, it cannot be said
that the Buffalo waterfront is
too small for building our campus.

Soil and Drainage
When considering the technical
advantages of the waterfront location, the condition of the soil
and the problems of drainage
should be examined. Although
the shape of the area is irregular,
it is essentially level and there
are no adverse soil or subsurface
conditions that might hinder
building progress. Drainage would
be handled by the already existing sewer system of the City.
This is one hurdle that can be
eliminated in the waterfront area
while it looms rather large in
Amherst.
Cost

•!

Land

There can be little doubt that
the land in the waterfront area
will be fairly expensive. This expense, however, can be offset by
a number of factors. Urban renewal officials have indicated
that every effort would be made
to aid the university if it moves

downtown.

Close cooperation between the
City and the University would
result in large benefits accruing

from the federal government. In
other words, although it may cost
more to acquire and clear the
waterfront area, this higher price
would be offset by federal, state,
and municipal grants for the expansion of the campus as well as
aid for urban renewal.

It is quite possible that the City
would turn over all land to the
University in the area for a nominal sum since the credits obtained by the City under the
Urban Renewal Law for a project such as this could pay the
cost of the City's urban renewal
program for years to come.
Accessibility
A large university, serving the
needs of a large population,
should be located in an area that
is easily accessible for tha greatest part of the population. Although accessibility to the Amherst site is fairly good, the

lent. The site is located at the
center of the area expressway
network. The Thruway, the Skyway, the Scajaqwadi Expressway,
the Kensington Expressway and

the proposed West Side Arterial
would all facilitate (he movement
of traffic in and out of the water
front area.

The downtown site is served
by all major city and intercity
bus routes. The Greater Buffalo
International Airport is twelve

miles via expressway from the
location. The New York Central
Railroad Station is only two and
one-half miles away via local
streets. There is the possibility
of providing rail service direct
to the campus since the railroad
line runs adjacent to the Thruway.

All this adds up to a big plus
for accessibility to the downtown
site. Besides being centrally located, no commuter, from Niagara Falls or Clarence or Hamburg,
should have difficulty reaching
the waterfront and reaching it
quickly.
Supporting Facilities
Supporting facilities for the
waterfront campus are the best

in the entire Frontier. These facilities include utilities, commercial facilities, and cultural facilities. All major utilities serve the
waterfront area and there would

be no problems in providing any

network desired by the University. The Buffalo Police and Fire
Departments would also serve the
area.
Commercial facilities are abundant. The campus would be only
walking distance from the Buffalo
central business district. Several
large department stores, a great

number of smaller merchants,
many restaurants, and several hotels and motels would be adjacent
to the site.
The cultural facilities of the
immediate area are extensive and
could prove to be convenient for
and valuable to the University.
The main branch of the Buffalo
and Erie County Public Library,
which includes the Grosvenor
Research Library, is close at hand.
Also within walking distance are
the Studio Arena Theatre, Memorial Auditorium, and Kleinhans
Music Hall. There are several
hospitals in the area and these

SPECTRUM

PACE FOUR

Buffalo's main business district,
as well as City and County Government offices, is certain to result in a high degree of part-time
employment and off-campus training opportunities.
Housing availability could not

be better. Married student housing could be made available in
several nearby housing projects.
Many of the new apartment projects could certainly use the faculty housing market. It is also rewarding to find that unlike many
other urban university locations,

i

.

the waterfront site is not surrounded by blight. North and
northwest of the site is an extensive housing area, one of the
older sections of the City, which
remains in fairly good condition.
The University could only
enhance the area.
Natural Baauty and Climate
For all those who are concerned with the appearance of the
University, one last point must be
considered
the natural beauty
and climate of the waterfront
area. The setting for the waterfront university could be nothing
short of dramatic. The view from
the university would stretch from
the Buffalo skyline and Harbor
to Lake Erie and the Canadian
Shore. At dusk, the student could
watch the sun setting over the
Lake rather than over Ellicott
Creek and there can be little
doubt that a waterfront university would provide a beautiful
entrance for travelers coming into
the city.
As far as climate is concerned,
the only adverse condition would
be the occasional high velocity
prevailing westerly winds which
blow across the Lake. Architectural design and landscape planning could eliminate most of
those effects. These same breezes
prevail during the summer
months and they provide Buffalo
with a most attractive summer
climate.
Waterfront Technically Preferable
Reviewing all these objective
factors, we find the waterfront
site an exciting possibility for a
new campus. The land available,
its condition and cost, the accessability, the support facilities, the
employment opportunities, the
housing availability, the natural
beauty of the area—all these combine to lead to one undeniable
conclusion: technically, the downtown site is preferable to just
about any other. One would think
that any study made would buttress this assumption. The University, however, after its “careful study” has rejected the water—

front. No one has offered sound
reasons why.
The waterfront seems receptive
to the building of a university
and indeed it should be. The University could perform a great
service to the City of Buffalo and,
as has been shown, the City can
provide the University with the
land and facilities any university
so dearly needs to become great.
The waterfront can be the setting
for a well-planned, well-equipped,
efficient, and certainly beautiful
university. This opportunity
should not be overlooked.

Glazier's Letter

It would be hard to conceive
of a letter missing the target
more completely than one recently from one of my colleagues
in the UB math department, deploring agitation to consider a
waterfront site for the university.

All the facts in the letter are
correct. In downtown Buffalo,

ing a group of 350 fat persons
of all ages, Dr. Perlstein found
that 90% of the patients with

blocking antibody problems recalled such experiences, and
could pinpoint the start of their
subsequent weight gain.

Dr. Perlstein’s treatment, the

administering of large doses of
the oral drug T-3, a synthetic
thyroid hormone, plus a diet low
in fats and carbohydrates, but
unrestricted in protein calories,
resulted in an average weight loss
of 15 to 20 pounds per month
among his patients with the blocking antibodies.

However, he stressed the need
for continual checkup of obese
patients by a physician to be
sure that no harmful effects follow the use of T-3. Unless some
better drug was discovered, he
said, T-3 dosage might be required throughout an obese person’s life to maintain the weight
balance.
Dr. Perlstein is currently associated with the University of
Louisville School of Medicine. He
is the author of a book entitled

Campus Planning Committee
To Provide Site Education
By

MICHAEL L. D'AMICO

Organization of the Campus
Planning Committee is under way.
At a meeting held Monday evening in the Conference Theater,
a number of interested people
expressed interest in the direction the new UB campus is going
to take. The primary concerns
of the group are the location of

the new campus and the role of
students and faculty in planning
that campus, wherever it may be
built.

Mr. Robert Coles, who is a
member of the Committee for an
Urban

Campus, addressed the
meeting and answered a number
of questions concerning the location of the new campus. Mr. Coles,
a local architect and city planner,

received his M.A. at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Speaking to the group for nearly an hour, Mr. Coles made a
number of interesting points. He
said that “this is the time to reopen the site issue.” He gave the
following reasons: (1) Cities and
their problems have become more
and more explosive. Mr. Coles
made reference to the outbreaks
of U.S. cities in the past few
years. (2) The university had selected Mr. Martin Meyerson as
its new president and there has
been a slowdown in planning
in Amherst. Mr. Meyerson is dean
of environmental design at Berkeley and considered to be one of
the best city planners in the
country. As far as delays in Amherst are concerned, Mr. Coles
said that there is “no conceptual
plan for the University whatsoever.” (3) Amherst has not recognized the responsibilities of accepting a large university into its
midst. Instead, road blocks have
been set up by the Town. (4) The
waterfront site may have been
pushed aside because of the Republican leadership struggle that
existed in the area in 1964. Mr.
Coles said that the present administration is highly receptive
to a university on the Buffalo
waterfront.
Mr. Coles revealed that the
Committee for an Urban Campus
has been working since June and
has done considerable research
into both the Amherst and the
Waterfront sites. In the Committee’s opinion, “the Waterfront
site is not only adequate but more
prepared to meet the needs of
the University.” It is convinced
that there are “no technical
Problems that cannot be surmounted in the Waterfront.”
According to Mr. Coles, Mr.
Meyerson and
Dr. Gould were
notified in July of the Commit-

tee’s findings. Dr. Gould then issued a statement which called
the decision to build in Amherst
“irrevocable.” This led the Com
mittee to appeal to Governor
Rockefeller for, in the words of
Mr. Coles, “no decision concerning a university of this size is
irrevocable.” The Governor then
asked Dr. Gould and the Board
of Trustees to re-evaluate the
Waterfront site. A message from
the Governor’s Office asked the
group to continue to search for
information.
In answering a number of questions concerning progress in Amherst, Mr. Coles noted that “no
planning has taken place since
programming has not yet jelled.”
He also said that most of the
money spent in Amherst has been
for land acquisition and should
the University decide not to build
there, there would be no loss to
the University since the land
would retain its value.

Mr. Coles touched upon land
availability and said that in 1964
the State University Construction
Fund required a minimum of 300
acres and a maximum of 700 to
800 acres if extensively developto 500 acres available

on

the
Waterfront. (Some studies have
indicated that 700 to 800 acres
are available.)
Discussion continued after Mr.
Coles left and it was decided that
a loose organization would be
formed for research. This skeleton organization would gather
facts for students arriving in the
fall. A number of committees
were set up and Steve Crafts was
elected as temporary representative to the Committee for an
Urban Campus which Mr. Coles
represents.
It was decided at Monday's
meeting that the Campus Planning Committee would favor the
Waterfront site and seek ways in
which the students and faculty
could make known their desires
about the nature of the new campus. “We don’t want a campus of
little boxes and little circles,”
said one spokesman of the Committee.
Because time is so important
in the site issue, the Campus
Planning Committee plans to
swing into action immediately.
They plan to make available in a
short time all of the facts surrounding both the Amherst and
the Waterfront sites. “We are
sure that once the facts are made
known, most will favor the downtown site. This is the course the
CPC is taking and we hope that
more of the students and faculty
will take an active part in helping us to achieve these ends.”

“During the period of restudy,
the State University will proceed
in such a manner as to minimize
any delay in connection with the
planning and development of a
relocated campus.”
The Trustees’ response came
from its August 11 meeting, a
day after the Rockefeller request
was sent to Dr. Samuel Gould.
In his letter to Gould, Rockefeller pointed out that the location of the new campus “will profoundly influence the nature and
character of the physical development of adjacent areas. As a consequence, all must agree that
every conceivable aspect of the

total project, including develop-

ments since the original decision,

should be given careful consideration.”

Later he suggested that “be-

cause of the unique importance
of this proposal to the program
of revitalization of the heart of
the city, I would like to suggest
that a review and study of the
‘Waterfront Area’ be made prior
to the commencement of any construction at the Amherst site.”
Rockefeller saw no reason "why
general planning for a relocated
campus . . . cannot continue during the period of restudy so that
minimal delay will be involved
should the original determination
be reaffirmed while, at the same
time, the results of such general
planning would be as useful and
necessary in the waterfront area
should that be chosen.”

Sander Arraignment Postponed
Pending Grand Jury Investigation
On Monday, August 15, Detective Sergeant Samuel Giambrone
appeared before Judge Ostrowski
of the City Court to answer
charges of third degree assault
filed by William Sander, a graduate student here (see Spectrum,
August 12).
On Friday, August 12, the city
police issued a new charge
against Mr. Sander. The original
charge of “sidewalk blocking"
and a second charge of disorderly
conduct had both previously been
dismissed. The new charge accuses Mr. Sander of “blocking
traffic with approximately twenty

others” with the “intent to commit a breach of the peace.”
On a motion of District Attorney Michael Dillon, the judge
postponed arraignment for Giambrone and Sander, on their respective charges until October 3
to allow the September Grand
Jury time to investigate both
cases. This was done over the
objection of Mr. Sander.
The Grand Jury can subpoena
all those connected, directly or
indirectly, with the incident
which occurred on the August
6 Peace March. If granted immunity, all witnesses must an-

swcr any questions put to tjiem
by the Grand Jury or the District
Attorney. One witness at court
on Monday warned that “this
may be the beginning of a little
HUAC in Buffalo. They will use
this case to have the Grand Jury
investigate the entire peace and
civil rights movement, as well as
the student movement, in Buffalo. You must answer all their
questions or face a jail sentence
for contempt. They may grant
you immunity from prosecution,
but not from the loss of your
job or research grant.” He predicted, “we are in for a rough
September.”

HCUA Peace Movement Hearings
Provoke Renewed Opposition
By DANNY KATZ
The House Un-American Activities Committee defied a Fed-

eral Court temporary restraining

order, which would have postponed the hearings for at least
ten days, and began investigation
of the anti-Vietnam war movement. A special three-judge panel
dissolved the restraining order
later in the day, but not before
Rep. Joe R. Pool (D.-Texas), assembled a subcommitttee in definance of restraining order.
The hearings began Tuesday
Horning at 10 a.m. in the Cannon
House Office Building. The subcommittee was comprised of Rep.
Senner (D.-Ariz.), Buchanan (R.Ala), Clawson (R.-Calif.), Ichord
(D.-Mo.), Ashbrook (R.-Ohio), and
Pool. Absent was Rep. Willis (D.La.)

Chairman Pool declared in an
opening statement before subpoened witnesses and observers,
“this Committee, operating in accord with the principles of free
speech and free expression, will
not investigate the ideologies or
political thought of individuals
or groups. It will, rather, determine the extent of aid given
through overt act to an enemy
of the United States.”
The first witness called by the
committee was Philip Luce, a
former member of the Progressive Labor Movement, now a Fed-

eral informer.
Luce was questioned about his
role in the Progressive Labor
Movement and the organization's
ideology. His answers led Rep.
Pool to inquire, “What is Marx-

ism-Leninism?” Three hours of

questioning dealt with PL’s ideology, the role of the May 2nd
Movement in PL, and the naming

of individuals active in the Move“'
merit.'
Luce also testified about PL’s
magazine, PL, their newspaper,
Challenge, and the May 2nd
Movement’s newspaper, Free Student. He also mentioned Dr.
Allen Krebs and the Free University of New York, but did
not testify that they were related to PL.
In the middle of Luce’s testimony, Jeffrey Gordon, a member
of PL, rose and shouted, “let’s
stop this fink testimony,” He was
dragged from the Hearing by
five federal marshals and was
surrounded by a dozen press
photographers. This
prompted
Pool to state, “this proves the
unwillingness of certain people
to engage in democratic debate.”
Another man stood and screamed,
“This sure is a funny hearing.”
As he was .being dragged from
the room, another man rose,
pointed to him and said, "that’s
an example of your committee's
democratic diologue." He was
quickly dragged from the room.
The next witness to take the
stand was Jeffrey Gordon, student
organizer for PL. When asked his
name, he replied, “My name is
Jeffrey Gordon and I stand for
the American Revolution,"
Gordon objected to the Committee’s hearings on the basis
of the 6th, the 9th, and 14th
Amendments to the Constitution.
When asked if he is a member
of PL he declared, "1 am proud
to be a member of the Progres"

Robert Coles addresses Campus Planning Committee meeting

In response to Governor Nelson
Rockefeller’s request that the
decision which placed the new
SUNYAB campus in Amherst be
reviewed, the Executive Committee of the State University Board
of Trustees issued following statement through Board Chairman
Clifton W. Phalen:
“The committee has pointed out
that the-trustees’ decision to relocate in Amherst was arrived at
after thorough study of various
alternative locations, and the studies, of course, included the
Waterfront area.
“Nevertheless, the committee
agreed that such a decision is of
major importance and it is willing on behalf of the Board of
Trustees to authorize a restudy of
this matter.

sive Labor Party, but I would not
be proud to sit on this Committee.” When asked whether PL
supports the sending of medical
snppties-tothe National Liberation Front of South Vietnam, he
replied, "as American citizens,
as people of the world, we believe that as part of our humanity, the giving of blood to victims
of aggression and bombing represents our patriotism.” Gor(Cont'd on Pg. 2)

Motorcade to
Counter LBJ
Buffalo Visit
A counter motorcade will greet
President Johnson’s appearance
in the Queen City today. The
President will arrive at the airport at about 1:20 p.m., travel by
motorcade to Niagara Square for
a speech, and make a short check
of the Lake Erie pollution situation. He will also support the
candidacies of local Democratic
congressmen.

The counter motorcade will
demonstrate opposition to the
American war policy. Those interested in participating in the
motorcade will meet in the parking lot at the corner of Main and

Bailey at 11 a.m.
A demonstration is also being
planned (or Niagara Square.
Those not participating in the
counter motorcade yet still interested in showing their opposition to the war in Vietnam are
requested to meet at the corner
lot at 11 a m.

A Congressional Intern in the
Office of Rep. John B. Anderson
(R.-H1.) granted the Spectrum a
personal interview following the
hearings. Regarding the general
nature of the Committee, he
stated, “I believe it fulfills a vital function in our country, and
that it has been most effective
in the control of internal com-

munism. Some of its methods,
such as implication through guilt
by association, I cannot approve
of completely. The Committee
has brought the leaders of internal communism out into the
open.’’

When asked why communism
had to be controlled at all, he
replied, “Communism is subversive and it advocated the overthrow of our system of government. Our government is democratic and I believe the men in
Congress are very conscientious
and worthy of our respect as
leaders.”
The intern was asked whether
he believed the men on the UnAmerican Activities Committee
were elected democratically. He
said, “Senner was not, his district was too small. Willis from
Louisiana wasn’t, he probably
had no Republican opposition.
Buchanan was not, you know the
situation in Alabama, Ichord I
don’t know; Pool, Ashbrook, and
Clawson were.”
The Spectrum also received the
exclusive interview with Barry
Stein, a member of the Progressive Labor Party, which follows:
Spectrum: As a member of the
Progressive Labor Party, what
are your impressions of HUAC
in general?
Stein: The Committee is one

aims of a relatively small portion of the population of this

New Physical Sciences Library
Opposed as 'Very Inconvenient'

The consolidation of the physics, chemistry, and engineering
libraries into a central Physical
Sciences Library has caused a
minor skirmish between the departments involved and the University’s library administration.
The new Physical Sciences Library, now in the process of
being moved into the annex surrounded by Parker and Hochstetter Halls was planned as long
as a year ago. William Ernst,
Associate Director of the Library, gave the reasons for the
move as available space in the
new buildings, the present crowded conditions of the existing libraries. “With lack of space,
there’s not much more we can
do,” he added. Dr. Ta-You Wu,
Acting Chairman of the Physics
Department, claims that the University library administration envisions a general physical sciences library to provide better
service at less money (duplication
expenses) and more space. But,
as Dr. Wu points out, the central
library idea differs from that
of most physical science setups
in the country.
“A central library makes it
very inconvenient for us,” says
Luncheon will be supplied and

salad, snacks, and cold beverages. The central library, he explained,
Lunch will be followed by sports goes against both the habit and
and a meeting of the general necessity of physical scientists.
Working scientists have a conbody to elect new officers. Anreother game period will follow the stant need for journals and
ferences close at hand. The deelections.
partmental library has traditionally provided easily accessible
information. A central library
cannot do this.
tee?

Stein: I believe PL does provide the proper basic approach
to handling qusetions concerning
peace, jobs, housing, racial equality, education, etc. But even
more, the socialist outlook has
an ethical view of all men working together, helping one another, for the building of a
society to develop the talents of
all the people to the greatest
level, as opposed to the ethic
of the capitalist system of getting
whatever one can for oneself,
even at the expense of others.
The solutions of the questions
stated clash with the aims of
those who are presently in control. It is therefore the desire
of these rulers to stamp out the
ideas presented by PL, M2M
(May 2nd Movement), VDC (Vietnam Day Committee), DuBois
Clubs, and those who recognize
these fundamentally opposed historical developments, or at least
major aspects of them.
The investigation will continue
through next week.

India Association Picnic Tomorrow
The India Association will hold
a picnic at noon tomorrow in
Chestnut Ridge Park. All members and friends will assemble
near the parking lot in front of
Lockwood Library at 11:20 a.nr
where, it is hoped, those who
have cars will bring them. Transportation will be provided for
those needing it.

Dr. Wu feels that the reasons
given by the library for the
change indicate that the library
administration does not understand the nature of physical science work. Although the departments involved opposed the central library concept from the
beginning, the matter was decided without consulting the departments or the library committee of the Faculty Senate.
At a meeting called by Dr.
Gordon Harris, Chairman of the
Chemistry Department and head
of the Physical Sciences division
of Arts and Sciences, the departments agreed on the inadvisability of the central library and
decided to write Dr. Furnas, Uni-

versity President, voicing their
complaint. Within a short time,
meetings were held both by
Dean Ketter of the Graduate
School and Dr. Furnas. At the
Furnas meeting, the president
apologized for not keeping up
with events and intervened on
the behalf of the departments.
A compromise was reached
whereby all but the Engineering
School would retain those books
which were most needed in a
departmental library. As Dr. Wu
describes it, they had found “the
least dissatisfactory way of settling the matter.”
“I am not so concerned with

the present .
the need for
space is great,” said Dr. Wu. As
a matter of principle I believe
a departmental library to be a
necessity. Libraries exist for students and faculty. We should
keep this problem open for future planning of the new campus.”
He added, “On important issues
the faculty should at least be
heard.”

ROIC Field Training
For 65 of the juniors &amp; seniors
enrolled in Air Force ROTC at
UB, at least one month of theii
summer has been rigorously
spent in Field Training, a compulsory program for ROTC cadets
that is roughly comparable to the
Army’s basic training.
This summer UB cadets were
assigned to either Plattsburgh,
New York or Loring, Maine for
the training program which included flights in Air Force tankers, pistol firing, land and water
survival, and career orientation.

Dr. Segal follows Dr. Bradley
Chapin as head of University College, which consists of the twoyear degree programs offered by
the University and the various
courses of study available to
freshman and sophomores in the
College of Arts and Sciences. Dr.
Chapin resigned to accept the
position of chairman of the Department of History at Ohio State
University.
Dr. Segal was named director
of the Student Counseling Center
in 1959. He was appointed an
associate professor of psychology
at the same time. He received his
B.A. from the City College of
New York, and both his M.A. and
Ph.D. degrees from the University of Michigan. Dr. Segal served
as a psychologist in the Counseling Division of the University of
Michigan from 1951-1956. During
the same period he also taught

graduate courses at Michigan.
Upon his arrival at Buffalo, Dr.
Segal organized and developed
the Counseling Center’s program.
He has published several articles
in professional journals.

Since its beginning in October
1965 the School of Health Related Professions has been under
the leadership of Acting Dean
Albert C. Rekate. Dr. Rekate will
now assume the post of Associate
Dean and Director of Clinical
Services.

In commenting on Dr. Perry’s
appointment, Dr. Peter F. Regan,
University Vice President for
Health Affairs said, “We are very
happy that we have been able to
attract the man most highly qualified to guide the future growth
of this new School, the fourth
to be established in the United
States. Because of his past positions in Federal service Dr. Perry
has had a unique opportunity to

observe and evaluate programs
for the education of health personnel. We are also most fortunate
that Dr. Albert C. Rekate has
agreed to accept prime responsibility for the development, coordination and supervision of the
clinical aspects of the various
programs of the School.”
Other positions held by Dr,
Perry include director of prosthetic-orthotic education at the
Northwestern University Medical

School, and lecturer for the Department of Psychology at the
University of Chicago.
The new dean received his B.A.
degree from DePauw University
in 1944, and his M.A. and Ph.D.
degrees from Northwestern University in 1952 and 1955 respectively. He is a member of the

Text of Rockefeller Letter to Gould
ED. NOTE: The following is tho
text of the letter deted August 11
from Governor Nelson Rockefeller to Samuel Gould, State University President, in which the
Governor asked for a review of
the new campus site decision.
“The merger into the State
University in 1962, of the former
private University of Buffalo,
represented a magnificent addition to the resources of our state
university. Its subsequent designation in the master plan as one
of our university centers evidenced both our appreciation of
its traditions of educational excellence and our desire that the
Buffalo area be the home of one
of the Empire State’s four great
educational and cultural centers.

“Before you became president of the State University in
September 1964 an event of the
greatest significance insofar as
the qualitative and quantitative
growth of the State University
is concerned—the Board of Trustees of the State University and
members of the Council of the
State University of New York at
Buffalo, decided to relocate all
elements of the State University of New York at Buffalo at a
new site in the Town of Amherst, except for the medical
school and associated health
schools and facilities which
would continue to grow on the
existing campus.

“I understand that since that
decision was made considerable
acreage has been acquired in
the Town of Amherst, but no
permanent construction has been
although intensive
undertaken
planning is being progressed

rapidly.

“I am sure that the decision to
relocate in Amherst was not arrived at lightly—but rather only
after thorough study of various
alternative locations. Nonetheless, the proposed relocation involves not alone the growth of
the State University of New
York at Buffalo as a center of
higher education, but also an investment of several hundred
million dollars of public funds.
"Its location will profoundly
influence the nature and character of the physical development
of adjacent areas. As a consequence, all must agree that
every conceivable aspect of the
total project, including any de-

since the original
decision, should be given careful consideration.

velopments

“Buffalo, one of the great
cities of the nation, is the second
largest city of our state. Its
growth and development have
been and continue to be of great
interest to me, not alone because
of what they mean to the people
who live there, but also because of the importance of Buffalo to the state as a whole.
“Strong representations have
more recently been made that
an area within the City of Buffalo
known generally as the

ment of any construction at the

interest.

“I would appreciate it very
much if you would take up this
matter with the members of the
Board of Trustees of the State
University and the members of
the local council of the State
University of New York at Buffalo.

"I see no reason why general
planning for a relocated campus
(as distinguished from land
acquisition and specific building

THE EDITOR:

to the outlandish plan to meld

the three departmental libraries
of Physics, Chemistry, and Engineering into one conglomerated
library of the technical sciences.
We, as graduate students in the
Department of Physics, oppose
this action most vehemently for
the reasons stated below, and
urge that the administration take
the necessary steps to reverse
this action and insure this university of the kind of library
most conducive to academic excellence.
1) No major university in this
country has a central library system such as is being imposed here
against the will of the faculty and
students alike.
2) In all the top universities
the Physics Departments have
their own separate libraries. Such
a system is necessary to insure
that the books purchased will be
of the quality required to further
academic excellence. Only physicists, working in physics, can

For about twenty minutes (primarily because of the
character of Gromek, masterfully portrayed by Wolfgang
Kleister), I was lured into thinking that Torn Curtain might
be a reassertion of Hitchcock’s directorial strength. Instead,
it turned out to be as dreary and as fatuous as Mamie, his
previous opus. The giveaway, 1 realize now, was the shot
of Hitchcock in the film, sitting in a hotel lobby holding a
baby. The camera dwells on him for a few seconds while
the theme music from his old television show plays on the
soundtrack.
In Hitchcock’s best films, his appearance on camera not
only served as a directorial signature, and an in-joke, but
also a reminder that what you were watching was a “film,”
an illusion. Aesthetically (like the gratuitous ending of
North By Northwest) it alienated the viewer from the action,
refused to allow us to relax our emotions and intellects. It
was this that first caused men like Roman Polanski and
Claude Chabrol to become aware of the intricacies of Hitchcock’s direction. But in Torn Curtain, the shot is only a joke,
nothing more. And a heavy-handed joke at that. Which is
fitting, because the film is heavy-handed, repetitive, and
lacking in suspense.
Not only do we know that Paul Newman and Julie
Andrews will come through their escapade unharmed, but
because of the banality of Brian Moore’s script, we cannot
even begin to believe in the reality of the major character.
(Has there ever been, in the last decade, a top American
physicist who couldn’t speak even a word of German?) Even
in the film’s best moments the Gromek sequences in the
beginning, and the camera’s stop-action during the dance
of the ballerina toward the end
there is no originality;
only a re-doing of what Hitchcock has done successfully in
the past. Prior to Torn Curtain, even in Hitchcock’s worst
films, there was always a momentary glimpse of his originality, some redeeming quality. Even in Mamie, one could
point to the opening sequences of changing perspective, on
the shot of the heroine riding off on horseback into an
artificial set of back-projection.
Finally, one wonders what it is that Hitchcock was
trying to get at thematically in Torn Curtain. It is not merely
a spy story. On one level, it is a put-down of American
scientists (one of the most attractive characters in the film
is the East German scientist Gustave Lindt) and the methods
of American science; on another, it is a put-down of international espionage in general. Ultimately, it would seem that
Hitchcock wants to make some comment about fascism from
a historical perspective (the death of Gromek, the shot of
Otto Preminger moving across the frame halfway through
the film). But explication by no means equals evaluation,
and I’ll leave it to the auteur critics who feel that Hitchcock
can do no wrong to sort out the muddled “meanings.” For
me, the attempt by Hitchcock to impose Significance is
doomed from the start unless it grows organically from
the film. In Torn Curtain it does not.
In this film, Lila Kedrova’s performance, an unconscious
parody of her achievement in Zorba The Greek, serves as
a microcosm for Hitchcock’s unconscious parody of his earlier brillance. It is especially true of Hollywood, that by
the time a director has the “name” to be in a financial

Research Grants Total $9.3 Million;
Include Water Symposium Conference
A potpourri of scientific and
engineering research unmatched
in the history of the State University at Buffalo pushed total
research expenditures during
1965-66 past the $9 million mark.
An estimated $9,300,000 was
expended during the year by
more than 40 departments at the
University who receive funds
from federal, state and private
sources. Several of the grants
received by the University will
have a major .effect on the
Niagara Frontier.
The most publicized and talked
about program at the University
during the year was a national
water symposium held in June.
Water experts from throughout
the United States and Europe
attended the week-long conference which was entitled, “The
Fresh Water of New York State:
Its Conservation and Use.”
More than 60 experts discussed
in detail the many facets of to-

day’s water problem before 250

sponsored by the New York State

year grant received
Ralph R. Rumer, acting head of
the Department of Civil Engineering. Dr. Rumer will construct
a model of the lake in order to
study the “dynamic behavior and
mixing processes” of the lake.
The School of Medicine again
topped all other Schools in research expenditures with an
setimated $4.8 million being
spent during the year. Studies
concerning air pollution, prevention of mental retardation, underwater breathing and a multitude of other programs highlighted the year’s activities. The
School’s programs on an international level continued with assistance being again provided to
the University of Asuncion in
Paraguay. Faculty members from
the School are serving on the
faculty in Paraguay and several
visitors from the Paraguayan

School studied the operations of
the University’s School of Medicine during the year.
The College of Arts &amp; Sciences
passed the $1,500,000 mark in research expenditures with the Department of Biology continuing
to lead the other departments
in the College with an estimated
$600,000 spent during the year.
The Department of Psychology,
with an estimated $Vi million
spent on research, is one of the
few in the country using “behavior therapy” in assisting emotionally disturbed persons. As
opposed to the traditionally analytical approach to mental problems, the psychologists believe
an individual can solve his problem through a relaxation-conditioning technique.
Everywhere at the University,
research continues at an unprecedented rate. The physiologists,
the psychologists, the engineers,
the doctors, the biologists, the
chemists, and the researchers
continue to add new information
to man’s ever growing body of
knowledge. An endless job, they
are united in a common goal—benefiting mankind.

Jerry Lewis’ new film Three on a Couch can now be
seen in this area. For those of you who haven’t seen a Jerry
Lewis film in years, and who are wondering what all the
critical acclaim for him is about, I recommend this film.
Lewis is weakest when he aims at a Chaplinesque kind of
pathos, and too often he does just that. But if he finally
accepts the fact that he is in the tradition of Fatty Arbuckle
and W.C. Fields, and aims at “pure” comedy, he will produce
a masterpiece. Outside of The Nutty Professor, Three on a
Couch is his best film.
As of the first week in August, the best film in Buffalo
is Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf. In his first directorial
effort, Mike Nichols proves that he is indeed an accomplished talent. From beginning to end Nichols is in complete control of the film. He knows exactly what he wants
to do, then, like an old pro who’s been at it for a decade,
with strength and with a deft
goes ahead and does it
subtlety. The acting is excellent, especially Richard Burton’s.
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf is a perfect example of how
a good stage play can be turned into a fine motion picture.

Committee for an Urban Campus
Names Robert Coles Chairman
Robert Traynham Coles, a local
architect and urban planner, has
been chosen chairman of the
Committee for an Urban Campus,
a group comprised of the business
and professional community dedicated to locating the new
SUNYAB campus on the downtown Waterfront area site.
Other officers include: Vice
Chairmen, Donald Ross (a UB
alumnus), Lewis Harriman, Jr.,
and Max Clarkson; secretary, Marvin Bloom, Assistant Professor of
Social Welfare here; treasurer,
Dr. Harry Sultz; and counsel, Carl
Green.
Also chosen were three members for the Committee’s execu-

live board. They are Alan A.
Korn, president of the BroadwayFillmore Merchants Association
and president of Sattler’s Inc.,
Robert B. Robinson, secretary of
the Forest District Civic Association, and the Rev. Robert Moore,
minister of Covenant Lebanon
Presbyterian Church. A fourth
executive board member, Stephen
Crafts, graduate student here, will
act as temporary representative
from the Campus Planning Committee.
Coles .indicated last Monday
that he had received “a communication from the Governor’s office encouraging the committee
to continue its efforts to develop

data for locating UB in the Buffalo waterfront-downtown sector.”
Coles said that the communication from Gov. Rockefeller "is
regarded by the committee as an
official blessing by the Governor
to continue our efforts.”
Rockefeller received a telegram from the Committee on
August 8 urging him to suggest
a review of the site decision with
particular consideration of the
downtown site as an alternative.
The Governor’s letter to Samuel
Gould, president of the State University, indicates that Rockefeller
has carefully considered the Committee’s request and statement of

'Dream of Unity'
Released Today
The controversial subject of
Pan-Africanism and political unification in West Africa is analyzed in a soon to be published
book by a State University at
Buffalo assistant professor of political science. Drum of Unity
by Dr. Claude E. Welch, Jr., 346
Hendricks Blvd., Eggertsville, will
be released August 19 by Cornell
University Press.
The book examines the success
of Pan-Africanism in West Africa
by studying four such attempts to
unite French and English speaking states. The examples selected
by Dr. Welch include the Cam-

Federal Republic, a successful instance of political unification, and three cases in which
eroon

Pan-Africanism failed to bring
about political unity: Ghana-Togo,
Senegambia, and the Union of
African States formed by Ghana,
Guinea and Mali.
